() Liu Xin'er hurriedly shook her head and said, "Brother Mo is so good to me, how can he bully me, grandpa, don't beat him with a stick." Listening to Liu Xin'er's nervous words, Grandpa laughed with Liu Kui. At this time, Lin Mo was looking at the papers of this year's government exam in the examination room, frowning.

The first question of this house test is the law, in fact, this law is simple and simple, after all, it is a dead thing, as long as you memorize it, you will naturally write, but this difficulty is too much in this law, although most people know the law of the dynasty "The Great Law", but this "Great Law" is just a general term, containing many parts, including 20 articles, 600 articles, the title of the article is in order, the name of the example, the prohibition, the job system, the household marriage, the stable, the unauthorized Xing, the thief, the lawsuit, the fraud, the miscellaneous, the arrest, the prison break, etc. Each of these articles contains numerous entries, each with detailed notes.

In addition, in addition to these, there are some things that are equivalent to the law, but they are taken out separately, such as the "Salt Law", which was violated by ten thousand trafficking in illicit salt, which is a special existence.

These laws add up to tens of thousands of words, which is equivalent to the volume of three or four Analects, which is very difficult to memorize, and it is still very rare for these people to test the law in this test, after all, these people spend most of their time reading those Confucian classics, and rarely read this book of laws.

Lin Mo looked at this question: "There are businessmen in the state, who buy nineteen catties of private salt, and privately mine twenty-nine catties of salt, and sell them to others. What is the crime of this business, and what is the sentence? ”

This question is to ask a merchant how to judge the sale of illicit salt, which seems simple but actually hides a mystery.

Now, although most people know that this person must have committed the crime of "Salt Law" and must be guilty of selling illicit salt, and most people know that trafficking in illicit salt is a capital crime, so most people will write "Selling illicit salt, punishable by death." ”

But Lin Mo knew at a glance that this question was not simple and pitted, and the teacher in his previous life always said that he should read the question clearly before answering the question, and don't find that he answered the wrong question after writing.

In fact, this question asks one what crime he committed and how he should be punished, which is naturally very easy to understand, but the question is what the crime of this businessman is, and this is going back to the topic. "Buy 19 catties of smuggled salt, pick 29 catties of salt privately, and sell it to others."

In fact, this is not as simple as selling illicit salt, this question contains three different crimes, one is to buy smuggling, the second is to collect smuggling, and the third is to sell smuggling.

Let's talk about the first article of buying illicit salt, in this question, it says that buying 19 catties of illicit salt, there is a premise for this is whether the person knows that this is illicit salt or doesn't know that it is illicit salt, and there are two kinds of sentencing for buying it knowing that it is illicit salt and not knowing that it is illicit salt.

If you don't know that it is private salt, you will be fined 50 times the amount of silver if you buy less than 20 catties of salt, and you will be punished with a fine of 50 times the same weight of official salt, and you will be punished with 10 strokes of cane, and 100 times if you are more than 20 catties, and you will be punished with a cane according to the quantity, and if it exceeds 50 catties, you will be exiled for thousands of miles, and your family property will be confiscated. Knowing that it was illegal salt to buy less than 20 catties of silver, he was fined 100 times the silver, punished with a cane for 20 pounds, exiled for thousands of miles, and confiscated his family property for more than 20 catties, and added one for each catty of rods, and if he was sentenced to death for more than 50 pounds, he confiscated his family wealth and his family was enslaved. The merchant in this question, whether he knows it or not, does not exceed 20 catties, and at most he will only be fined a silver rod.

The second is this smuggling, which is relatively simple, 30 catties below the cane is punished for 30 miles, flowing thousands of miles, more than 30 catties are capital crimes, confiscating family property, and the family is enslaved, so this businessman picked 29 catties according to the law and the rod is punished for 30, flowing thousands of miles, copying

No money. The third is this smuggling, this merchant sold 29 catties of illicit salt, according to the law, sold less than 30 catties of family property confiscated, 3,000 li, the family was enslaved, more than 30 catties, capital crime, confiscated family property, and the family was exiled and distributed.

Of course, the decree written in this is actually analyzed according to the specific situation, there have been major crimes in the past, the criminal trafficked a thousand catties of illicit salt and was exterminated, and the final result is not necessarily the same as this decree, but this is not what Lin Mo asks to care about, just answer according to this decree. Therefore, in summary, this person's crimes would not be punishable by death if they were counted separately.

There is also an important rule that if it is mixed with a variety of crimes, such as buying, selling and picking in this way, generally speaking, all the illicit salt is added together, and more than 50 catties is a capital crime, and if it is not passed, it will be sentenced one by one according to the crime, and it will be added together. The sum of all the businessmen is less than fifty catties, so he will not be directly sentenced to death, but it must be listed one by one, if there are more crimes, he will still be sentenced to death, which depends on the mood of the judge.

After Lin Mo thought it clearly, he wrote it clearly one by one according to these rules. Seeing that he had written in such detail, Lin Mo couldn't help but feel a little proud, and he was very grateful to He Ren and Wan Na in his heart.

Before Wan used private salt to frame himself, he just wanted to get some private salt to retaliate for a tooth, but He Ren introduced the relevant laws of the "Salt Law" to himself in detail, so that he had a one-sided understanding of the various crimes involved in this private salt.

Thinking of this, Lin Mo couldn't help but look at the distance, where He Ren was sitting, and He Ren was also answering the questionnaire at this time, and what he wrote was not much different from Lin Mo.

Lin Mo didn't stop and then the poem, Lin Mo was happy. "Qingming" is right This question only gives the word Qingming, let people compose poems at will, Lin Mo thought for a moment, this Qingming is mostly related to stepping on the Qingqing, worshipping ancestors, and remembering the deceased, Lin Mo thought about what was good, and finally patted his head: "I'll go, how did I forget that poem." Then Lin Mona did not pause at all, and wrote a five-character poem on the paper smoothly.

"During the Qingming Festival, it rained a lot, and the pedestrians on the road wanted to break their souls. By asking where the restaurant is, the shepherd boy pointed to Xinghua Village. This is the famous poem "Qingming" that has been passed down through the ages by Du Mu in the Tang Dynasty.

Lin Mo neatly wrote the poem, and wrote the poem title "Qingming", since he was reminded by Zhou Qian that he didn't write a poem in the last county test, he remembered that he must write a name when writing a poem. Next is the post script, in fact, it is the fill-in-the-blank question of the later generations, give a paragraph in the classics, empty a part, let you fill in the complete, Lin Mo looked at these posts, listed one by one, there are about a dozen. In order, it is "the country of a thousand vehicles, respect and believe......"

"Five-acre house...... Hundred acres of land ......" and then Lin Mo secretly said lucky, if this house is to test the scriptures, it will be selected from this Confucian classics, but this Confucian book has been written by predecessors and compilers by many descendants, Lin Mo This is just reading some common books, such as "Analects" and "Mencius", and Lin Mo roughly read some of these scriptures, most of which are in these common classics, although Lin Mo may not be able to answer, but basically can answer. Then Lin Mo picked up the pen and wrote seriously, "The country of a thousand times, respect things and believe, use sparingly and love people, so that the people can take time." ”

"A house of five acres, a tree with mulberry, fifty can be clothed; Chickens, guineas, dogs, and animals, no time is lost, and seventy people can

carnivorous; A hundred acres of land, don't take it away, a family of eight can be hungry. When Lin Mo finished writing, he found that except for one article, he really couldn't think of it, and he wrote everything else, Lin Mo couldn't help but feel a little proud, his review during this period of time was still fruitful, if Lin Mo could answer two or three before, it would be good.

The last question of the government test is still Jingyi, and the question is very simple: "The character of the object is then known, the knowledge is followed by sincerity, the sincerity is followed by the heart, the heart is correct and then the body is cultivated, the body is cultivated and then the family is Qi, the family is together and then the country is governed, and the country is governed and then the world is peaceful." Why? ”

Lin Mo remembered this sentence very clearly, after all, Wu Wenyan often quoted this sentence when he taught himself, and always said: "A gentleman should cultivate himself and rule the country and level the world." Teach Lin Mo to have a lofty direction and show his ambitions. This is from "The Book of Rites University", and the main meaning is to let people actively explore and improve themselves every day to build society.

Lin Mo sorted out his thoughts for a while, and then began to write. "Husband, those who study things investigate the causes, and then know the causes and effects...... A gentleman should take the world as his own responsibility, and use what he has learned to benefit the people of the world......"

Lin Mo wrote a large article freely, Lin Mo still has confidence in his writing, after all, he is still writing a book, and this daily accumulation is naturally a matter of course, and an article will be on the paper. Lin Mo then put down the pen and looked at the neat handwriting on the paper, and couldn't help but smile slightly, the handwriting test was completed.

At this time, just after noon, Lin Mo had been sitting here for an hour, Lin Mo looked at the sun, then stretched his waist, and then signaled to call the officials, indicating that he had finished writing and wanted to hand in the papers and leave.

The official looked at Lin Mo, and then looked at the words written on the scroll, and then nodded and said, "Don't move around here, I'll go and tell you." Then he left here and walked straight to Meng Wenzhao, who was sitting in front of the examination room, to tell him about the situation, although Meng Wenzhao was in the examination room at this time, he was very anxious about some things in his heart.

This first thing is Wan's matter, this Dao has come to the official document, to take Wan to Daoli for personal interrogation, once he leaves Yunzhou, Du Shaofu will give up his previous efforts, he is now thinking about getting some useful information from Wan's mouth, but he still hasn't gotten what he wants, Du Shaofu has been in Yunzhou for so long just to dig out what he wants, but this Yunzhou is ironclad, even if he finds clues, there is no evidence, so he can only let those people get away with it, this time Wan is a breakthrough, Wan is now a capital crime, Even if the people behind Wan want to save him, it will be to no avail, but now the worry is that the people behind him don't want to save him, but want to kill him.

The current Du Shaofu is still in the government and takes advantage of this time to surprise interrogate these ten thousand, hoping to get useful clues in this last time. The second thing that Meng Wenzhao was upset about was that the poetry questions of this government exam were rumored to have been leaked, and some candidates had already obtained this exam question in advance, in fact, such rumors are true and false every year, which makes it elusive.
