Chapter 298: Temple Examination Questions

The questions of today's science hall examination are still the same as in previous years, one poem, one endowment and one strategy, a total of three questions. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Zhong Hao opened the exam paper and looked at it, only to see that the question of this poem was still the tone of advocating Confucianism and governing the country, and the strategy question was to ask how to subdue the four yi.

It stands to reason that the palace examination of the subject is based on poetry, but Zhong Hao faintly feels that the focus of this subject seems to have changed, and it seems that this strategy accounts for a lot of points.

Otherwise, I really can't explain that when he was in the provincial examination, Shifu was really sluggish, and he could only barely be regarded as a rhyme, but he could not take the fifth test in high school.

After reviewing all three questions, Zhong Hao started with the test poem first.

There are some differences between the questions of the palace examination and the provincial examination, and the questions of the provincial examination may also have some deviations and strange questions, but the questions of the palace examination are very particular, and they are all moved down from the most classic chapters and sentences of Confucianism, and most of them are classic chapters and sentences that most people know, which will never cause misunderstanding, and their meanings are relatively easy to understand.

After all, the main examiner of this palace examination is the official family, and today's palace examination is not degraded, if the question is too biased, and some candidates break the wrong questions, in case they talk nonsense again, it may cause dissatisfaction among the officials, and if the officials can't help but want to be dethroned, the candidates will be in trouble.

At that time, if the official family does not dethrone the candidate, I am afraid that he will hold his stomach; If the candidate is dethroned, but the rules are broken, and the courtiers will be criticized.

Therefore, this righteous official generally does not come up with that kind of digression and make trouble for himself. Because if the official family is not happy, I am afraid that there will be no good thing for this righteous official at that time.

The questions of this test-taking poem are all similar to the previous ones, and this kind of test-taking poem can't write much meaningful content, so this poem can only be written in the choice of words and sentences.

Most of these tributes who can sit in this Chongzheng Hall to participate in the palace examination have a high level of literacy, and it is definitely no problem to break the topic and compose poems, and the rest depends on who does it well, and who can carve the words and sentences of this poem more beautifully.

Zhong Hao's level of poetry, his ability to choose words and form sentences, can only stay in the poetry that can make a rhyme, as for the gorgeous rhetoric or something, it is not something he can pursue at all. His poetry exam questions only need to be able to make poems that fit the format.

But in fact, this test-taking poem has all kinds of restrictions, which is not entirely a bad thing for a person like Zhong Hao who is not very literate, but it is a good thing to a large extent.

Otherwise, if you don't do these restrictions, I'm afraid that those candidates who really have literary talent and work in poetry will be more brilliant in their poems, and they will be able to open up the gap with people with limited literary talents like Zhong Hao.

And this poetry exam question has these various restrictions, but it restricts the performance of those candidates who are really literate, so that candidates like Zhong Hao, who can only make poems that rhyme, are not so far away from them.

Although the five-word and eight-rhyme test-taking poem in today's science hall test is only forty words, Zhong Hao spent a whole hour using rhyme, searching for chapters and extracting sentences, and finally finished this test-taking poem.

After finally determining that there was no rhyme, unqualified style or taboo, Zhong Hao carefully transcribed the test poem on the test paper.

Because this test paper is to be previewed by the official, Zhong Hao wrote it very seriously.

His line of writing is to imitate the small Kai of Dong Qichang, at this time people have still seen this kind of elegant regular script font, Zhong Hao thought to himself that if the official family can really see his test paper, his own line of writing, should be able to add a lot of points to himself. Of course, Zhong Hao felt that the possibility of the official family being able to see his test paper should be very small.

However, Zhong Hao felt that this was probably the only thing he could learn that he could hardly do, and he was extremely serious in writing.

After finishing this test-taking poem, Zhong Hao hurriedly started to do the law again.

In fact, this test is also an ingenious competition to compete for who sings the praises of virtue, in fact, there is not much difficulty in writing this content, but this format requires a lot of effort.

It took Zhong Hao more than an hour to repeatedly scrutinize and revise several times before the draft was typed!

He was about to go through it again, to see if there were no inconsistencies in rhyme, if there were no taboos, and he began to transcribe it.

Suddenly, I heard the bell of the waiter, and all the candidates couldn't help but look up, only to hear the waiter say loudly: "Please have lunch!"

Then the waiter waved his hand, and then there were more than a dozen small yellow doors carrying large food boxes to distribute the meals to the examination table one by one.

Because it is eating at the examination table, the examination table is two feet long, and it must not be at the mercy of seven plates and eight bowls for candidates to eat. Therefore, the meals distributed by the little yellow gate to the tribute students were all served in a square box.

Zhong Hao saw that a small yellow door was distributed in front of him, so he immediately put down his pen, put away the test papers, and took the box.

This box is similar to the multi-compartment bento lunch box of later generations, and when you open the lid, you can see that there are eight small compartments inside, and there is a food in each compartment! Packed with four meats, four vegetables and eight dishes such as celery shrimp, lychee white kidney, fish strip tofu, mandarin duck fried belly, and a box of noodles, all of which are carefully prepared by the imperial chef, they are naturally very delicate and the taste is naturally very delicious.

However, the amount of this lunch box is not large, and it will not hold people. This is not because the official family is stingy or the imperial dining room is deducted, but for the sake of the candidates. If you eat too much, you will be sleepy in the afternoon, and the exam will be affected.

However, most of the Gongshi candidates in this Chongzheng Hall don't have much appetite! The time for the temple test is tight, and most people are not willing to waste this desire on the tongue.

And although these dishes are exquisite, they can be made in the big restaurants in Tokyo City, and they can be made better and more exquisite, even if those poor candidates, these days when they won the tribute, I am afraid that they are also tired of eating the delicacies of the mountains and seas, and naturally no one cares too much about these foods???

Zhong Hao was an exception, everyone else was simple and quickly filled their stomachs, so he pushed the lunch box to the corner of the table, waiting for those little yellow doors to come and take it away, but he chewed it there for a while.

Zhong Hao is different from others, anyway, as long as he can finish this test! My level is there, and no matter how hard I carve it, it's useless. Well, of course, he doesn't have the ability to carve them, and those words and sentences are all made up by himself, and if he lets himself change the words with the same rhyme, he may not be able to change them just right. Therefore, Zhong Hao is actually making up for this poem, and he can barely rhyme and make sense of it.

Therefore, Zhong Hao ate this imperial meal very calmly, and tasted the taste of this imperial meal very carefully.

In the end, Zhong Hao came to a conclusion, this imperial meal ...... Actually, that's what happened!

………………

After eating the imperial meal, Zhong Hao felt that he was still a little hungry, mainly because he got up too early this morning, and it was nearly five hours in the morning, and he was really hungry now. Originally, when I had never brought this imperial meal, I was busy doing the question, and I didn't care about my stomach, but eating this imperial meal aroused hunger.

At that moment, Zhong Hao took out the snacks prepared by Xiao Tao for him from the exam box and ate some food, which suppressed the hunger. As for the snacks on the exam table, as soon as the exam started this morning, Zhong Hao had already sent them to the Five Organs Temple.

A candidate next to Zhong Hao was busy doing questions and had no appetite, but seeing Zhong Hao eating so happily, he couldn't help but laugh a little!

However, his appetite aroused Zhong Hao, and at the moment, he also swept away the food in the box by dividing it by two. He was a little grateful to Zhong Hao.

After eating the imperial meal and eating some snacks, Zhong Hao began to check the draft of the exam again.

The test-taking poems of this palace examination are the same as the tunes of the test-taking and provincial examinations, that is, singing praises of merit, writing the article in a colorful way, and giving birth to a Buddha in today's official family, so that it can be regarded as in accordance with the format.

Although Zhong Hao's test-taking poems and test-taking poems are very sluggish in the choice of words and sentences, their core ideas are also clearly expressed, and the meaning of singing praises is still very clear.

In the end, it took another two quarters of an hour for Zhong Hao to finally check it, to make sure that there were no taboos, and the words and sentences were all rhyming, so he finally finalized the test, and then began to copy the test paper.

After finishing the exam, Zhong Hao looked at the hourglass, and saw that there were still two hours before the end of the exam, and there was still plenty of time, so he started to do the strategy immediately.

These test-taking poems are all the same songs and praises, but this strategy of how to conquer the four Yiyi is to write something practical. Test-taking essays, as they should be.

Zhong Hao knew that his poetry could really be said to be unsightly, so he felt that he was able to save the Chinese style this time, and I am afraid that it was very likely that the strategy was written very dryly.

Before the palace examination, Zhong Hao also discussed this issue with Xu Feng, and he silently wrote out the poems he made during the provincial examination, so that Xu Feng could read it, and Xu Feng also said that it was really not good. Therefore, Xu Feng also felt that Zhong Hao's success in the examination must be the reason for his brilliant strategy.

is because Zhong Hao is very serious about this strategy.

Although this exam question is made by a righteous official, the official family is the chief examiner of the palace examination, so this righteous official must have understood the meaning of the official family when he issued the exam questions???????

Obviously, the official family has instructed this kind of exam question on how to subdue the four yi, and they must be very eager to make a breakthrough in side affairs. Therefore, this policy is not the same as usual, and it is to let the candidates talk about governance.

In fact, if the official family fully agrees that civil officials can pacify the four Yi by virtue of benevolence, I am afraid that they may not ask such an exam question on how to subdue the Siyi.

Therefore, Zhong Hao's policy topic is still the same as that of the provincial test, and his point of view is still the theory of a stick and a carrot, with equal emphasis on force and benevolence. Although the official family rules the world with benevolence, Zhong Hao speculates that every emperor has a desire to conquer the four empires and expand the territory. Therefore, Zhong Hao focused on this point.

Once the idea is settled, the writing will be fast!

There is relatively no strict format for policy discussions, and Zhong Hao has really written many times this time. Therefore, the policy is written quite smoothly.

After writing it, Zhong Hao still checked by himself to see if there was anything that needed to be avoided, such as the name of the current official family, and the name of Taizu Taizong Zhenzong, which all needed to be avoided.

After the inspection, Zhong Hao began to write on the test paper.

When Zhong Hao finished answering the paper and put down the pen, it was already three quarters of the hour, and there was still more than half an hour before the paper was handed in.

After answering the paper, Zhong Hao's mood relaxed.

After checking the papers, Zhong Hao had nothing to do, and immediately began to look around.

Searching around for Xu Feng, Shen Kuo, and a group of classmates from Songlin Academy.

He saw that Xu Feng had already finished answering the paper, and he was also looking around. Shen Kuo was still bowing his head and writing hard.

Zhong Hao was looking around at the people and various objects in the Chongzheng Palace, when he suddenly saw a eunuch with kind eyebrows and a purple shirt coming over, pointing to the official family on the throne, and then pointing to Zhong Hao's scroll, which means that the official family wants to see his scroll.

This eunuch has been standing beside the official family today, Zhong Hao knows it.

Although the candidates didn't dare to look directly at the official family on the throne, most of them had secretly looked at him. How can I say that the official family is also everyone's nominal teacher, and I don't even know each other, so I really can't say it. Zhong Hao had also secretly observed the official family.

In today's palace examination, the official family is the main exam, and he has been sitting on the throne of the Chongzheng Hall to invigilate the exam. But if he sits like this for a day, the official family will definitely not be able to sit still, and there are still many things for him to deal with!

Therefore, the official family asked the personal eunuch Wang gradually to read the recital to him in a whisper, and he handled state affairs while invigilating the examination here. Belch...... The reason why the king gradually read it is because there is only a throne in this Chongzheng Palace, and there is no imperial case, and the official family cannot approve the case.

Of course, Zhong Hao just saw that this eunuch had been reading the recital to the official family, and he didn't know that this eunuch in a purple shirt was the eunuch who was now the chief eunuch of the Great Song Dynasty Forbidden Palace, and he was also the personal companion of the official family.

Because the palace test was still in progress, it was gradually inconvenient for the king to make a sound, so he only gestured with gestures.

Zhong Hao obviously didn't expect the official family to look at his scroll at this time, and couldn't help but be shocked, and an exclamation mark floated in his heart: Could it be that the official family actually knows that he is not Jane in the emperor's heart!

Wang gradually saw that Zhong Hao understood what he meant, but he was obviously a little distracted, and couldn't help but smile at him, took Zhong Hao's scroll with his own hands, and went straight to the official's side.

The scene where Wang gradually took Zhong Hao's test paper and showed it to the official family naturally fell in the eyes of the invigilators, but he was not too surprised, because the official family was the main examiner.

In the morning, the official family was approving the recital, and there was something to do, but after the official family went to have lunch at noon, they didn't reply to the recital when they came back, but just sat on the throne and looked at the candidates in the hall.

At this time, the official family was bored on the throne for a long time, and naturally met with Hunter Xinxi for the paper that was answered in advance.

Of course, it is also possible that the official family knows this person and wants to see it out of concern, in short, this is human nature, and it is not an excessive thing.
