Sections 121 to 122 Winning the Championship (Part I)
[Because of the excitement, the title of the VIP chapter was wrong, and it couldn't be modified, so I had to merge 121 and 122, but it didn't affect the reading at all, so you don't have to care.] γ
But 'all Yayan also. Ye Gong's six words are connected together, and it looks like it doesn't make sense.
However, it is not a difficult task for Shen Mo, who has a strong mind to jump surnames. He knew that the original text of the first four words was 'Poems', 'Books', and Worship, all of which are Yayan. Yayan is the official dialect of the Zhou Dynasty, which is roughly equivalent to today's Shaanxi dialect. And Confucius was a native of Lu, and he usually spoke Shandong dialect. The meaning of this sentence is that 'Confucius usually used Shandong dialect for conversation, but when he recited poems, books, and praises, he switched to Shaanxi dialect. β
Of course, the specific explanation has to listen to Zhu Zi, he said that "Ya" is to train "Chang", and Yayan is "to discipline Chang", which is the virtue of a saint.
Look at the word 'Ye Gong' again, the original text is 'Ye Gong asked Confucius Yu Zilu, Zilu is not right.' Zhu Zi explained: "Ye Gong, the word is high. Yin of Chuye County, pretending to be a public. What this means is that Ye Gong asked Confucius's students, 'What kind of person is your teacher?' Zilu refused to answer the question.
After figuring out the meaning of the two sentences, let's start talking about it...... Put it all together in a reasonable way, and it's a success.
Shen Mo suddenly found that this seemingly unreasonable interception question, after figuring out their respective origins, turned out to be a fair question that understood Zhengda. Because after Zhu Zi introduced who Ye Gong was, he commented: 'Ye Gong does not know Confucius, there must be someone who asks instead of asking, so Zi is not on the right path; Or is it also the virtue of a saint, there are really those who have not changed their names? β
The four words "the virtue of the sage" will connect the two sentences before and after, and express the meaning of the topic in a dignified manner, as long as you have memorized the Analects and Zhuzi's commentaries, you can directly solve the problem, and you don't need to guess nonsense.
To be honest, this is the first time Shen Mo did the interception question, he had a sense of steadiness in his heart, because the ones he usually encountered were often made up by the examiner and students, even if the questioner's own standard answer was far-fetched, the answerer was naturally even more foggy and could not find a perfect answer.
Shen Mo couldn't help but praise secretly: "Being able to make the interception question so dignified and convincing, Tang Jingchuan really lives up to the name of 'Tang Wang'!" ββ
Since the topic is correct, the following topics are like flowing water, and they are written in one go, and he is addicted to writing......
After an article is written, it is carefully checked several times as it was in the county exam, and after the words and sentences are correct, and the rhyme is smooth, it is only then that it is transcribed on the volume in pavilion style one by one...... Li Xianling once said that with his first word alone, even if the article is written as tofu scum, he can be a showman.
After the first article was written, it was almost noon, so I stretched my muscles silently, carefully put away the paper, and prepared to write it after lunch. Although the fire was already cold, he was not pampered, and he ate it as soon as he was served. There were many others who had the same thoughts as him, and many candidates took out dry food and bamboo kettles from their baskets and began to eat.
But some of the children of rich families could not eat cold and hard dry food, and they only received hot meals. Then some candidates took out the money and asked the officers who patrolled the examination to go outside to pick up the food boxes sent back home.
The prefect sealed the door, and the servants dared to make an assertion, so they let them endure it first, and sent a representative to ask for instructions in a whisper: "Fuzun, some candidates don't bring dry food, please help the little ones buy some." β
Governor Tang shook his head and said lightly: "Although it is understandable to serve candidates, the examination room is not a market, and it needs to be absolutely quiet. And at this time, it is easy to cheat in and out, let them die of this heart, and the official will not agree. β
Soon after the errand went down, there was a burst of chatter in the examination room, and the children of those big families quit, some of them really didn't bring dry food, and some of them were just waiting for the errand test questions to be sent out, and the answers were sent in, so they were naturally unwilling.
At this time, there was a crisp sound of 'pop', which made everyone smart, only to hear the Tang Governor say coldly: "If there is any more noise, the staff twenty will be expelled from the field!" β
There is a rich man who doesn't know whether he is alive or dead, and he still his neck and says: "If we are killed, we will also eat!" "He obviously doesn't know what it means to 'shoot a bird'.
"Fork out!" Three words popped out between the teeth of the Tang Governor's Mansion.
Two wolf-like soldiers rushed in, lifted the frightened boy from his seat, and dragged him to the backyard.
Only then did the kid know who was the boss of Shaoxing Mansion, crying dad and calling his mother to beg for mercy from his ancestors, but it was too late...... The two soldiers dragged him to the base of the south wall, pressed him on a stake, and gagged him with rags. Then he picked up the finger-thick board and spanked his ass hard.
Listening to the frightened 'whin' of the little beast, all the old men were honest, and although they were still hungry, they did not dare to say a word.
The Tang prefect then ordered someone to bring out a basket of cooking cakes mixed with bean noodles from the back hall and distribute them to those candidates who had no food to eat, and then one person gave some radish pickles, which was considered a free lunch.
I was tired of eating meat and burning it, and I saw that the bread was quite soft when I saw it silently, so I changed it with the people around me, and I was full after eating half of it.
He carefully wiped his fingers and the table with a rag, then took out the paper and began to answer the next question, 'The Way to Virtue'. This is a big question, that is, a question that understands the meaning of the question and will not be misunderstood, and examines the basic skills of children.
Shen Mo knew that this title came from the "Analects", and the whole sentence was 'The Tao is governed by government, and all are punished, and the people are free and shameless.' The way is virtuous, all are courteous, shameful and qualified. Obviously, it is to distinguish the relationship between the rule of virtue and the rule of law...... But it is not for you to express your own opinions, because Zhu Zi has already given a conclusive answer: 'The rule of virtue is the foundation, and the rule of law is supplemented!' If you dare to disagree, it is heresy, prepare to go to the nine sides to surround the Ming Dynasty.
Not every candidate is as careful as he is, and many people have already answered two questions before noon, but because of the rules of the examination room that they are not allowed to hand in papers before noon, they have to wait patiently.
As soon as the sound of bangs sounded at noon, a number of candidates got up to hand in their papers. Governor Tang ordered them to take the papers and stand in a row away from the examination table, and after ordering someone to remove the big case, he ordered in a low voice: "Hand in the examination papers in turn, no noise, and the official will review them on the spot." β
The first paper was handed over, and two messengers took it, one holding the cover and the other holding the back cover, and dragged it to both sides, and the nine-fold and ten-sheet answer sheet was displayed in front of the eyes of Lord Fuzun.
Another servant offered a brush and waited with an ink cartridge on the side. Tang Zhifu took the pen, and then began to read the papers, and he actually read them at a glance, and finished reading them in a blink of an eye, leaving a two-word comment at the back of the article.
Seeing that Fuzun had put away the pen, the two errand officers put the paper together, returned it to the candidate, and said, "Come back next year." β
The examinee was already nervous, and when he heard that his legs were weak, he almost knelt on the ground, and took the exam paper tremblingly...... Isn't it a bit ...... you judge a student's test paper as 'unpassable' just by the number?" β
Tang Shun reviewed the next paper one by one, and recited the first 'bullshit' on the other hand, and memorized it in several places, but it was word for word, and at the end he said lightly: "Do you feel it yourself, is it smooth?" β
The candidate blushed, saluted, and withdrew with the paper in his hand.
On this kung fu, the Tang prefect has already approved four or five papers one after another, but the result is either 'unpassable' or 'off-topic', and none of them have been taken, which shocked the candidates behind them and trembled: "My lord, please write a few more words." "What he meant was, don't send me away with another word.
Tang Shunzhi nodded, and sure enough, he wrote down two lines of poetry, but he still didn't take it.
The examinee took the paper back, and saw that the comment was: 'Two yellow orioles are singing green willows, and a line of egrets is in the sky.' It's a famous sentence of Tang poetry! couldn't help but feel aggrieved: "You have praised the students' articles for their outstanding performance, why don't you take them?" β
Governor Tang's hands and eyes didn't stop, and he smiled faintly: "Impressive? Why? β
The examinee pointed to the poem and said, "Isn't there a sound for the yellow orioles singing green willows?" Isn't the egret colored in the blue sky? β
At this time, the Tang prefect finally wrote the word 'Zhong' on a scroll, and the messenger waiting on the side took it to the scribe on the side and transcribed his name on it.
The Tang prefect continued to read the papers, and when he saw that 'Ming Cuiliu' was still standing there, he explained softly: "The two yellow orioles are singing Cui Liu, and they don't know what to do; A line of egrets is in the sky, digressing for thousands of miles. The candidate walked away with a ashamed face.
All the candidates saw that the prefect was reading the papers, including the time to write comments, and they could only make a judgment if they stayed on each paper for a few minutes. And the fallacy of those who can recite it is impossible to refute it, and they can't help but be amazed, and everyone says, 'Why is there such a big gap between people and people?' βγ I also saw that more than ninety percent of the 100 test papers were returned, and I was even more shocked in my heart...... In fact, less than 300 people were admitted to the government examination, and this probability is completely normal, but watching the papers being beaten back with my own eyes makes the candidates have the illusion that the Chinese style is like a 'needle in the bottom of the sea'.
A candidate had an idea, so he wrote a limerick poem at the end of the examination paper: "Student, I am twenty-five this year, and I have suffered from the cold for ten years; If you don't win this year, how can you go home and see your mother? β
When the Tang prefect saw his crooked poem, he added two words to the end of each sentence and typed it back, and the candidate saw that his limerick poem became: 'Student, I am twenty-five this year - not old, and I have suffered from the cold for ten years - bragging; If you don't win this yearβsurely, go home and see the baby's motherβkneel. I had to scratch my head and cry and laugh.
But there are also those who have a spectrum in their hearts, and they feel that they will definitely be able to win. There is a candidate who is the head of Zhuji County, who has been stunned by the county's nonsense, and feels that he will be able to win two more songs, which was the little three yuan this year. He proudly presented the scroll to the Tang prefect, and said with a reserved smile: "Student Zhuji case first week ......"
But I heard the prefect say lightly: "According to the law of the examination room, you will be disqualified if you say your name." β
Case Chief Zhou hurriedly shut up, almost biting his tongue off. Secretly indignant: 'Look at my brilliant articles like fireworks, do you still need to be accommodating?' β
Lord Fuzun really stayed in his scroll for a while, and Zhou Shutou said complacently in his heart: "Have you been convinced?" The corners of his mouth were reaching the base of his ears.
Unexpectedly, the next moment, his roll was beaten back.
Case Chief Zhou's smile froze, and he opened his mouth wide and said, "My lord, what do you mean?" β
"No." The Tang Governor's Mansion was still not salty or indifferent, so he continued to read the papers.
"I'm the head of the case......" Zhou felt that he had really hit a ghost, and he hadn't heard of an example of a county head who didn't take the government test. couldn't help but be shocked and angry: "The head of the county case is a must-win talent!" β
"No one has stipulated that the official must admit the county head." Tang Governor said lightly.
Zhou Case Shou laughed angrily: "My case leader is a real knife and a real gun, if the adults don't take me, then the fresh candidates in Zhuji are not qualified enough!" Saying that, he shook the scroll and said, "Tell me, what's wrong with my two articles?" Not even in the top 300? β
Governor Tang was unmoved, how to approve it, and just said softly: "Look at the comments." β
Zhou Shushou looked down and saw a line of gorgeous calligraphy: "Please Yue Mengquan come, and this official will admit you together." After reading it, he blushed, stuffed the test paper into his arms, saluted the prefect, and hurried away.
It turned out that the small topic was written by himself, but the big topic attacked the article of Yuan Yuezheng in the orthodox period...... Although he knew that it was an attack, he was not worried at all, because Cheng Mo of the big question of 'Tao with virtue' was flying all over the sky, and it was unlikely that the examiner would have read the one he used...... Even if he read it, he was not afraid, because the Da Ming Law did not stipulate that it was not allowed to be attacked, and the examiner could not find fault with the article, so he could only admit that he was unlucky and swallowed this stinky fly.
In fact, he was born with a good memory, and there are no less than 3,000 pieces of Cheng Wen in his abdomen, and the two articles in the county test were obtained by suppression, and no one has noticed it so far.
But this guy doesn't inquire, who is Tang Shunzhi? It was recognized as a genius in the world, and he won the Huiyuan at the age of twenty-two, if he didn't refuse to attach Zhang Xuan, the champion of that year would be in his pocket. But even if Zhang Xuan crooked his nose, he only dared to demote him to Tanhua, otherwise the spittle of the world would drown Zhang Shoufu.
Later, because of his faith, he was sent back to his hometown to study for 20 years, and he became a super-first-class university scholar. What article has not been read about such a monster? How could he be fooled by a little child? Lao Tang just said lightly, 'Let Yue Zheng come', and solved the problem that has plagued the examiners for many years.
Of course, only such an authoritative person dares to break the convention that the head of the county trial must be a student.
But Governor Tang is a kind person after all, if he makes this 'suppression' incident public, then Zhou's reputation will be completely finished, and he will never think about being admitted again in his life. Although the candidates are talking about it now, there is no evidence after all, and the speculation has passed for a while.
In the midst of a whisper, Shen Mo and Tao Yuchen stood up at the same time and prepared to hand in the papers.
