Chapter 201: The Fish and the Bear's Paw
Shen Kang raised his eyes and looked at the courtyard, the door he entered was the main gate of the north of the courtyard, and further north, there were three halls, and in the middle was a long aisle, Zhang Yi was sitting in the aisle, with his back to the west and facing east. And further north, there are grass huts connected together, which are the "examination houses" for students to take exams.
When the students arrived, the sky was already dark.
Chang Jiaoyu and several other examiners stood up one after another, bowed to Zhang Xian, and then stood behind Zhang Xian. On the other side, several students who were acting as guarantors for the candidates were brought to Zhang Xian and saluted him together.
Zhang Xian nodded abruptly, and the students went behind him in an orderly manner, standing in two rows.
Shi Zhushu stepped forward, held the roster, and sang: "County school, Liu Qiang, thirteen years old, Gu Bao Lisheng: Wu Min!" β
The candidate stepped forward and saluted Zhang Xianchang, and the student behind Zhang Xian replied, "Yes." β
Zhang Yan nodded, and the candidate was taken aside to take the exam paper, corresponding to the seat number on the exam paper, and walked into the examination room.
Song Yuan said in a low voice: "Thanks to Ah Shu, let us come in later, depending on the situation, and we have to wait." β
"Yes." Shen Kang responded.
With the passage of time, the candidates in the compound walked into their examination houses one by one, and Shen Kang was assigned to the Renshen number, which is considered a mediocre location, and he didn't have to smell the fragrance of the latrine, nor did he have to hear the voices of people outside the wall at the gate, and he didn't have to be disturbed by the soap officials who patrolled in the middle.
He calmed down, placed the pen and ink inkstone, and glanced at the exam questions.
Fish as much as I want.
From the book "Mencius", it is one of the representative chapters of Mencius. In terms of human nature, he advocated the theory of sexual goodness, believing that people are born with the virtues of benevolence, righteousness, propriety, and wisdom. In terms of social and political views, Mencius highlighted the theories of benevolent government and royal way, and put forward the idea that the people are noble and the king is light.
This article expresses his heart directly, puts morality and life on the opposite side, he chooses morality without hesitation, and educates people to be selective in dealing with good and evil, even if their lives are threatened, they cannot abandon righteousness.
The first step in writing a current essay is to solve the problem.
The key to solving the problem is not only to point out the main idea, but also to fit the direction of contemporary people's etiquette and righteousness, to do these two points, the article is a good work, if the language can be concise and eye-catching, it will be even more icing on the cake.
Since he saw Wu Dayuan just now, Shen Kang has risen some competitiveness. He wanted to give it a try, and did his best to face this county test, what ranking he could get.
Considering the general thrust of the article, he began to recall the content of the notes on the Four Books Collection, and he slowly... picked up the buns in the basket, silently typed the draft in his heart, and nibbled on the steaming buns.
At the beginning of the examination, the official patrolled the examination room with a lantern in hand.
As the examiner of this exam, Zhang Xian was also full of spirit, he sat for a long time, he couldn't hold back the curiosity in his heart, stood up, and said to the examiners behind him: "Let's go down and take a walk." β
Chang Jiaoyu nodded, smiled and arched his hand: "Zhang Xianzun, please." Then he said to the examiner on the side: "Everyone, peers." β
Zhang Yi smiled, and began to patrol from the middle aisle, and every time he stood outside the examination room, he tilted his head and glanced inside.
Some of these candidates are sitting on their desks, and they may not have time to relieve their hearts. Some of them were stuck, full of sadness, and shook their heads again and again.
There are also calm responses, and on the pen and paper, they are all witty words.
Zhang Yan pointed to the examination house and asked, "What is the name of this candidate?" β
Chang Jiao replied: "This is a student of the county school, Wu Dayuan. β
Zhang Yi nodded and said with a smile: "The children can be taught." β
"Thank you for your compliment." Chang Jiao Yu straightened his back, his face was bright, and his smile was even more.
After walking a few more test houses, I saw that Jiang Liushu was changing his previous appearance, writing seriously, and nodded. Until... came to the front of Shen Kang's examination room.
The cold wind blew the curtain of the door of the Kaushe from time to time. He looked inside through the door curtain and saw Shen Kang drinking steaming tea while taking small sips, nibbling on buns extremely elegantly.
Zhang Xian was slightly stunned, his eyebrows couldn't help frowning, and when Chang Jiaoyu saw his expression, he felt curious, and glanced in along the door curtain. At this glance, he frowned instantly, isn't this kid Shen Kang, the protΓ©gΓ© of Liu Zangshan and Mr. Haoran!
People are all after the exam, hungry and unbearable to eat some dry food, he is good, as soon as he comes in, he eats, look at his leisurely appearance, if it is not in the examination room, I really think he is going on an outing!
The examiner saw Shen Kang angry, if other candidates saw it, they couldn't say how to ridicule it.
Zhang Yan shook his head, feeling extremely disappointed, and in a fit of anger, he didn't want to go on the patrol anymore, so he walked towards the west lobby with his hands in his hands.
When he arrived in the inner hall, Chang Jiao said in a sullen voice: "This kid is too unreasonable, if you don't take the exam sincerely, why bother to come here to join in the fun!" β
The examiner on the side said: "Isn't this intentionally adding to the chaos!" β
Zhang Yi "snapped" the teacup unhappily and rested it on the table.
"Hun boy!"
......
At this moment, the muddy boy in the eyes of the examiners has finished drinking the tea, he put the small tandoor at his feet, warmed his feet, put the remaining buns back into the basket, took a soft towel to wipe his hands, and finally pressed the paperweight on the exam paper, and held the customary brush with his hands and sleeves.
"Fish I Want"
The husband is leisurely, and he flows with the righteousness of all things in heaven and earth.
Mencius's righteousness is based on life first, and the people take righteousness and sacrifice their lives, how can the king die alone? It is as if he said that the husband tasted terrible, so as to sue Meng Jun.
Mencius said: Life, also what I want; Righteousness is also what I want. You can't have both, and those who sacrifice their lives to take righteousness are also.
In my room, there is a warehouse, and the so-called dependents are worry-free.
Between the fields, such as beams, and the so-called health care to send the dead has no regrets.
If the people are sufficient, why should the king be alone?
The husband is also born, and he can still be abandoned for righteousness. Husband Yiye, try to think clearly! Don't be righteous and first, and be slacker and hold this clearly!
......
Now that he has finished the draft, Shen Kang can write it as fast as God helps. He used to spend a lot of time practicing calligraphy, and at this point today, all the benefits are revealed.
Examination room for the exam, the first choice of the pavilion style, it is the same as the regular script, emphasizing the norm, beautiful, neat, generous, can write a hand pleasing to the eye of the good words, not only the face of the reader, for the grading officer, is also a great luck.
Shizi is popular in the Taiwan Pavilion style, mostly focusing on how to write rigorously, this word, a rigorous up, horizontal and vertical, people can't help but get tired of it.
Shen Kang is not a child who has been writing since childhood, so he is not subject to those rigorous thoughts, and his personality is not as rigid as the ancients.
There are red lines on this examination paper, 12 columns per page, 12 characters per column, a text written down, no corrections, the volume is neat and calm, which is really pleasing to the eye.
He finally dropped the last word, and carefully threw the brush into the wash, blowing the ink until it dried.
At this time, the sky was already bright, and there was a sound of things knocking over in the examination house next door, and the soap officer walked straight over and asked, "What's the matter!" β
