Chapter 64 Preparation before the Township Examination
Speaking of this Huang Ru, the official of the Huang Mansion was quite positive about Lewen, and within two days, he found Lewen the most famous local Confucian, named Zhuge Chenghua. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
This Zhuge Chenghua is not only full of talent, but also upright, such a person really doesn't know what he has to do with Huang Ru.
During the time that Le Wen and Zhuge Chenghua were in contact, they learned that in fact, Zhuge Chenghua and Huang Ru had nothing to do with each other, and they just knew each other and drank a few cups of tea.
Huang Ru asked Zhuge Chenghua to give Le Wen a point, originally Zhuge Chenghua was reluctant to go, but he couldn't grind his face, so he wanted to come and see casually, who knew that after having a conversation with Le Wen, he felt that Le Wen was a rare genius in a hundred years, and he not only read through the Four Books and Five Classics at a young age, but also had many unique insights.
But this is also normal, there must be many differences between the thinking of ancient and modern people, and he must know that Lewen is a modern person, and he will definitely vomit blood.
Zhuge Chenghua generally does not accept apprentices, but this time he felt that if Lewen could get his guidance, he would definitely become an immortal genius, so Lewen became a closed disciple of Zhuge Chenghua.
After a few months of guidance from Zhuge Chenghua, Lewen has indeed benefited a lot, and he feels that being able to get such a great Confucian for a few months is better than some Confucianism teaching for several years.
Zi said, the politics of civil and military affairs is laid out in Fangce. If its people exist, its political actions; If his people die, his government will rest.
Humane and sensitive, authentic sensitive. The husband is also the one who is in power, Pu Lu also.
Therefore, the government is in the people. Take people as their own. Self-cultivation to the Tao. Cultivating the Tao with benevolence.
The benevolent, the people, the kiss is the greatest. The righteous should also respect the virtuous. The killing of relatives, the respect of the virtuous, etc., are also born of rites.
Under Zhuge Chenghua's suggestion, Lewen studied hard from morning to night, and another day passed, after returning to the inn room.
Lewen didn't go to bed, made a pot of tea, drank a few sips, spread out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and thought about it under the oil lamp.
Today is the fifth day of the eighth month, and there are still three days left before the township test of Zhending Mansion on the ninth day of the eighth month, and three days is just a blink of an eye for Lewen.
Long more than three days also in the Zhending Mansion to test the martial arts, the Ming Dynasty martial arts system was created very early, but the system has not been determined. It was not until the fourteenth year of Chenghua that according to the suggestion of the eunuch Wang Zhi, taking liberal arts as an example, Wuke Township and Hui Examination were set up. Hongzhi six years, Dingwu Ke six years to try, first strategy, then bow horse, those who fail to try the bow horse. Later, it was changed to a triennial trial. The content of the exam is mainly horse walking, bowing and archery, and strategy test.
The content includes horse arrows and guns, knives, swords, halberds, fist fighting, stabbing and other methods; two trial camp formations, mines, gunpowder, combat vehicles, etc.; Each of the three speaks to those who are familiar with the art of war, astronomy, and geography. This third scene is obviously easy to see, and it is a far-sighted proposal, but unfortunately it did not attract the attention of the imperial court, and it is just talk, otherwise it will have a very far-reaching historical impact.
And this township examination is extraordinary for Lewen, we must not be careless in Jingzhou, not only can we pass the exam, but also we must get a good result.
Le Wen studied the ink, and he was not in a hurry to put down the pen, he thought about the information of the Zhengde five-year township examination, and soon came up with the three most likely three test questions for the Zhengde five-year Zhendingfu Township Examination.
The venue of this township examination is in the Gongyuan of Zhending Prefecture. There were three sessions on August 9, 12 and 15 with a total of three questions.
Le Wen sorted out his thoughts, picked up the pen and wrote down three topics on the paper: "Yao Yue", "Gaozong Wei Ri", and "Zhongni Yanju".
Among them, the sentence "Gaozong Wei Ri" comes from "Shangshu": Gaozong sacrifices into soup, there are flying pheasants ascending to the top ears and ringing, and the ancestors have trained the kings, making "Gaozong Wei Day" and "Gaozong's Training". On the day of Gaozong, the more pheasants there are. Zu Ji said: Only the king of Xiange is doing things. It is trained to the king. Said: But the people under the heavenly prison are righteous. The year is eternal and eternal, not the people of heaven, and the people are desperate. The people are not virtuous, and they do not listen to sin. Since the heavens are destined to be right, they say: What is it? Alack! Wang Si respects the people, regardless of Tianyin, and the ceremony is not rich in nicknames.
The meaning of this sentence is that on the day of the sacrifice to Gaozong, there was a pheasant chirping in Ding's ear. Zuji said, "First relieve the king's heart, and then correct his sacrifices." So enlightened Zu Geng.
Ancestor Ji said, "Heaven watches over the people and praises them for their proper deeds." The longevity given by God is long and short, and it is not that the angels die young, but that some people cut off their own lives. There are those who have bad morals and sins of disobedience to the will of God. Heaven has given a command to correct their bad character, and you say, 'What shall you do?' āā
"Ahh The first king inherited the throne and was respected by the people, all of them are the descendants of God, and when sacrificing, the sacrifices among close relatives should not be too rich!
August 9 was the first session, and the quality of an essay had little impact on the overall score.
So, he continued to consider the article "Yao Yue Chapter".
"The Analects" from "Yao Yue": Zizhang asked Confucius: "How can Si be able to do politics?" Zi said: "Respect the five beauties, screen the four evils, Si can be in politics." Zizhang said: "What are the five beauties? Zi said: "The gentleman is benevolent but not expensed, hard work is not resentful, desire is not greedy, Thai is not arrogant, and mighty but not fierce."
As for the last article "Zhongni Yanju", it is very easy.
Zhong Niyan lives in the "Book of Rites": Zi said: Those who are courteous are also reasonable; Those who are happy are also festivals. The gentleman is unreasonable, unmoving, and unrestrained. Can't "Poem", Yu Limiao; can't be happy, Yu Lisu; Thin in morality, in etiquette. Zi said: The system is in the ceremony, the text is in the ceremony, and the line is in the people! Zigong crossed the table and said: Dare to ask: Is it poor and? Zi said: What are the ancient people with? The ancients too. To reach the courtesy but not to the pleasure, it is said to be primary; To be happy but not to be courteous, it is said to be biased. Husband, up to happiness but not to courtesy, is to pass on this name, the ancients also.
For this piece of article. Lewen has nothing to worry about. Eight strands of exams since ancient times. Many people like to find sentences from the Book of Rites. Just this sentence, there are at least three or four relative texts in Lewen.
"Knock Knock Knock ......"
I wanted to read these three texts again, and I heard a knock on the door outside.
Le Wen opened the door and saw that it was Zheng Liangcai who asked him to discuss how to deal with the township test in a few days.
"Little mosquito, what questions do you think will come out of this first exam?" Zheng Liang had just entered the room and sat down, scratching his ears and asking.
"I don't know, maybe these three questions will come up, you can take a look."
Lewen rolled his eyes, this kid is quite timely, if Lewen didn't want to pull Zheng Liangcai, he would definitely not share it with him, if there are really these three questions in this exam, and they are discovered by outsiders, others don't suspect that someone leaked the exam questions to him.
Zheng Liangcai took the three questions handed over by Lewen, looked at them again and again, and said slowly: "Really?" I don't think it's possible to have these three questions. ā
"Hehe, I'm guessing too, who knows."
Lewen actually can't say that he is guessing, but he guesses that the probability of these three questions in this township test will be very high.
