Chapter 275: Two Examinations
The topic of the re-examination is one of the five scriptures and one poem of five words and eight rhymes.
After getting the plain paper and the exam papers, Shen Kang placed the four treasures of the study room neatly, and while slowly grinding the ink with his sleeves, he lowered his eyes and looked at the most important eight-strand essay topic in the second re-examination.
"Accepted in the Great Temple", the words of "Spring and Autumn Ram Biography Huan Gong Second Year", literally mean, acceptance, there is income, enjoyment, payment, surname meaning. In this sentence, take the meaning of its income. The Great Temple, that is, the Taimiao, is the temple of the ancient emperors.
Together, it means that it is included in the emperor's temple.
Although it is a short four words, it seems simple at first glance. However, in the test, the simpler the question, the more ambiguous it is, and the intention of the person who wrote the question cannot be found for a while.
Shen Kang thought to himself, thinking to himself.
The Spring and Autumn Period is a classic Confucian classic, which is included in one of the Five Classics. This great work is a chronicle of the state of Lu, which, according to legend, was compiled by Confucius.
The words of the Spring and Autumn Period are the refinement of the ancients and the unprecedented, although the refinement, but the words have a deep meaning of praise or depreciation, this narrative technique, known as the "Spring and Autumn Brushwork".
The meaning of the title this time is roughly as follows: In April in the summer, the Lu State obtained the Dading of the Ministry from the Song State.
In the social context of the time, the name of the object was generally based on the original name, and the land followed the name of the owner.
Since this Dading was taken from the Song Kingdom, it should be called Song Ding, but why is it called Bu Ding?
Because the Great Ding was given to someone, it was not possessed or owned by him, and this Ding was originally taken by the Song State from the Ministry by improper means.
Therefore, people still call it by its real name, Bu Ding.
As for the land, it is different if it is given to a person, and it becomes his own in an instant. So, can you take what you want by improper means to take it for yourself?
The answer was, "No!" ”
It's like the king of Chu took his sister as his wife, and no one would recognize the title of this wife.
On this day, Wushen sent the Ministry Ding into the Taimiao of Lu State. Why does "Spring and Autumn" record this?
For the sake of condemnation. What to condemn?
It is not polite to condemn Lu Huan Gong for taking advantage of the chaos of the Song State to accept bribes from Hua's father and governor, and to send the bribes to the Taimiao.
In other words, what is the difference between the current practice of the Lu State and the Song State that seized the Great Ding from the Ministry State back then? You have it, but you can't have it forever!
Who came up with this question? He clearly asked the candidates to discuss etiquette, and it was royal etiquette!
A cloth coat is a vain discussion of royal etiquette, and if you are not careful, you will violate the royal majesty and rules, which is really harmful.
It reminds me of the great ceremonial events at the beginning of Emperor Jiajing's accession to the throne.
Although the ceremonial turmoil has subsided for several years, and the people involved have long since returned to their respective places, this matter is the most taboo for Emperor Jiajing.
Shen Kang felt that the author of the question had far-reaching intentions and was by no means a small person.
This person has the courage to bear the anger of Jiajing after knowing this, and he is also reckless and chilling, and if he does this, it is very likely that many innocent candidates will be affected!
Thinking of this, Shen Kang's eyebrows became tighter and tighter, and he had to avoid things that were reminiscent of Emperor Jiajing's invitation to his biological father into the Taimiao, which really made him difficult.
People are often like this, the smarter people are, the easier it is to walk into a dead end.
He can see through the intention of the questioner at a glance, but he can't avoid the trap set by the questioner, an exam, two people who have never known each other, but it seems to have opened a battle line in an invisible space.
......
Shen Kang remembered a passage in Sun Tzu's Art of War, so the reason why Jun suffered from the third of the army: I don't know that the army can't advance, but I say it's advancing, and I don't know that the army can't retreat, but I call it retreat......
The person who made the question was the monarch who endangered the three armies, and he asked the question from the perspective of God, without any regard for the safety of the students who took the examination for the reference college, and he was really a cold-blooded and ruthless person.
Shen Kang chuckled, if he was really an eleven-year-old child, I am afraid that he would not be able to walk out of the examination booth this time. But in fact, he was a man over thirty years old, both in intelligence and courage, beyond the original ability of this body.
He can't control all the candidates, he can only protect himself, so in this situation, he is even more eager for power.
Power can make people lose their lives, and it can also save countless lives. How to fiddle with the power in his hands depends on the heart of this person.
He habitually twisted the sleeves and cuffs, his lips were slightly raised, revealing eight white and neat teeth, and he smiled so calmly.
Incorporated into the Great Temple
It is advisable for the saint to hide, and for those who can do it, he will begin to reveal it. It's for solving the problem.
Your special mother will be ambiguous, and so will Lao Tzu!
Shen Kang wrote down the problem and laughed secretly. Immediately afterwards, with a turn of the pen, he wrote: It is not easy to return to the sage's trip to Tibet. Since the trip of the Holy Master, it can be said to be with it.
You talk about etiquette, I want to go against the wind, erase your deep meaning, and write it literally, what can you do to me?
"Haha..."Shen Kang chuckled twice, in the quiet lobby, it seemed extremely abrupt. provoked bystanders to frequently look sideways.
Shen Kang has already been immersed in his own articles, unable to extricate himself, the more he writes, the more he writes, what kind of saint and teacher, what kind of benevolence and righteousness, these things are not easy to come by?
However, in two hours, the eight parts of the problem were completed, from the problem to the problem, the topic, the starting topic, the starting stock, the middle share, the back share, and the bundle of shares.
From the beginning of the strands to the bundle of strands, there are two rows of comparison and dual sentences, and the whole article imitates the tone of Confucius and Mencius, and the four pairs are evenly matched.
Plain and elegant, the contract is correct, and Xia Yan's usual gentle and generous style of writing is full of volumes. I don't know when Shen Kang has been accustomed to using this style of writing when he is composing, and he is really handy when he writes.
When he put down the last stroke, there was no alteration on the entire plain paper, and the generous Taige style was written in a graceful manner.
He read it again from the beginning, and felt that there was nothing wrong, so he transcribed it on the test paper.
He blew dry the ink and completed the most critical part of the re-examination of the hospital examination, Shen Kang felt refreshed and relaxed, rolled up the test paper and put it in the wooden box beside him, and after a while, the test paper was taken away by the student who inspected the examination room.
Shen Kang lowered his eyes and looked at the last big question, a poem with five words and eight rhymes.
Five-word and eight-rhyme poems, also called "endowed", are named after the word "endowed" when they are created.
Five-character and eight-rhyme poems originated in the Tang Dynasty, mostly five words and six rhymes or eight-rhyme arrangement, which were produced by the influence of "Tijing" and "Trial Post".
