Chapter Seventy-Two: The Temple Examination (II)
In fact, when Liu Fan was writing the book, everyone in the palace was already impatient, and at the beginning the reading officer was still reviewing the candidates' articles, and when the results of these articles were all set, he found that there was still a Gongsheng still dancing with a brush in the dragon and the phoenix. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
However, this palace test is different from the township test and the general examination, the township examination and the general examination have time limits, but the palace examination is just for everyone to do the questions, and the general strategy can be completed in an hour at most, but now the time is close to noon, and Liu Fan has not yet put pen to paper.
Everyone stared at each other, so they had to wait patiently, and several paper readers coughed one after another, reminding Liu Fan that it was not too early, but unfortunately Liu Dayuan ignored it and did not have the slightest urge to stop.
After finally finishing the writing, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, Liu Fan blew dry the ink, and handed in more than a dozen dense articles full of policy theories, at this time he didn't regret it, but just said to the examiners: "Please proofread it." ”
These paper readers smiled bitterly, people's strategies were only two or three pages of more than 1,000 words, but Liu Fan was not too troublesome, and he actually wrote so many words.
However, Liu Fan has been "famous" for a long time, no one dares to look down on him, private morality is one thing, learning is another, now is the exam, naturally the article is the highest.
The reader who read the volume first read it carefully, and after reading the beginning, his eyebrows stretched, and he had to say that Liu Fan's skills are indeed worthy of his name of Huiyuan, and the pattern of the whole article is both meticulous and extremely smooth, and occasionally a few couplets come out, all of which are also excellent.
It's just that...... Then the reader couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, his face became not very good-looking, and he continued to look down, falling into deep thought, and seemed to be a little undecided.
Wait until the whole article is finished. The reader looked distressed, as if he was undecided, not knowing what to do. He hesitated for a moment before exhaling, grabbed the pen and circled under Liu Fan's article.
The first reader passed. The next thing is to pass it to the second book reader, this book reader is similar to the previous one, first nodded secretly, but when he saw half of it, he noticed that something was wrong, and he couldn't help but shake his head secretly, and he also looked uncertain. He was silent for a long time, and finally when he picked up the pen, he actually made a cross.
When Liu Fan saw this, he already had a bad premonition, eight marking officers, at least six people had to draw a circle to enter the next level, and now the first two marking officers have a circle and a fork, which is obviously not good.
Those tribute students who were sitting on the side and waiting, some people also felt strange when they saw the gesture of the second marking officer crossing. After all, Liu Fan is a Huiyuan, and as a Huiyuan, if he can't write a wonderful strategy, everyone won't believe it. But just after reading the papers, such a situation came, and it was obvious that Liu Fan was hanging this time.
Seeing this, especially Zhao Feng, he was secretly happy in his heart. Although he and Liu Fan, one is the North List Huiyuan and the other is the South List Huiyuan, but if you compare the articles, it is obvious that Liu Fan is better than Zhao Feng. This palace test. He thinks that his biggest competitor is Liu Fan, and if he wants to strive for the top in the palace examination, he naturally has to defeat Liu Fan, but now seeing that Liu Fan is unfavorable, Zhao Feng has a premonition that Liu Fan is going to stumble, although he is not moving on the surface, but he is happy in his heart.
The other examiners were similar to the first two, one by one, their eyes lit up, and they were impressed by Liu Fan's literary brilliance, but they continued to look down, and the old face couldn't help but pull down, but at this time, they were hesitating whether it was a circle or a fork, and as a result, there were two forks and five circles in the first seven!
In the end, the test paper was in Liu Xi's hand, he cheered up and read it, and after a while, he lifted the red pen and hit it with a fork without hesitation.
Five laps and three forks, which is basically out.
Liu Xi's eyes closed, his face was indifferent, and he knocked on the table indifferently, and then called Liu Fan: "Gongsheng Liu Fan ......"
Liu Fan stepped forward and said, "The student is here." ”
Liu Xi said: "You and other tribute students who have not yet arrived can leave the palace." ”
This means that the rest is none of your business, where did you come from, get out of here!
Gongsheng knew that the results had been revealed, but Liu Dayuan would actually fall off the list, which was really unexpected by everyone, but Zhao Feng saw that the overall situation had been decided, and suddenly smiled, as if the top one in this palace test had already beckoned to him.
Liu Fan refused to move, he kept a smile on his face, and said, "What do you mean, sir?" ”
Liu Xi said: "You have already fallen off the list." ”
Liu Fan showed a strange look and said, "Oh? Could it be that the students used inappropriate words and did not convey the meaning of the words? ”
Liu Fan's level is resounding, no matter how ignorant Liu Xi is, he doesn't dare to say that there is anything wrong with Liu Fan's article, he hurriedly said: "Your strategy is a good work, the words are extremely incisive, the old man has been an official for many years, it seems that such an article has not been seen for a long time, it is a few editors of Hanlin, I am afraid that I will not be able to make such an article for a while." ”
This sentence is really a bit excessive, but it is not that he deliberately flatters Liu Fan, but it is that Liu Fan's article does have a sense of agility, which makes people want to read it several times.
Liu Fan smiled slightly and said, "Since the student's article is so good, why do adults turn the student away?" ”
Liu Xi was not polite, and he praised it, just to pave the way for now, and said: "The palace test is a strategy, if it is an article, of course, Liu Gongsheng will come out on top, but unfortunately it is a strategy, then Liu Gongsheng's strategy is really against the way of the sage." ”
Liu Fan said: "Oh? Could it be that this strategy also has something to do with the saints? The students were surprised and wanted to ask the adults for advice. ”
This guy is messing around, if it weren't for being in the palace, Liu Xi would have ordered someone to beat him out. But if the candidates are not convinced, they naturally have to come up with a decent reason, after all, this is not a children's test, a township test, and the people sitting here will be officials in the future, and they can't be justified without a convincing reason. Liu Xi Zhengse said: "In the article, you said that you should exterminate the Turks and set an example, and listed the methods for controlling the barbarians, first saying that the Pingbei Governor's Mansion should be set up, and the general towns in Gansu, Shaanxi, Shanxi and Hebei should be used exclusively for the purpose of pacifying the barbarians. He also said that the soldiers in the border towns were not of great use, so they should recruit strong men and train new troops. In the opinion of this official, it is inferior to the inferiority, and such a strategy naturally cannot be admitted. ”
Liu Fan sneered, at the beginning, Liu Fan really wanted to preach in a high-sounding way for the sake of the future, but it was inexplicable, perhaps because of the last bit of conscience in his heart, which actually caused him to change his mind, since he changed his mind and wanted to be a 'madman', then he also let it go, Liu Fan, as a tribute student, actually sneered at the dignified book reader: "Could it be that the Lord has a good plan for peace?" ”
Liu Xi was even more displeased, but the other paper readers did not speak, obviously did not want to be this bad person, it seems that if he does not refute Liu Fan's convincing, I am afraid that he will be said by those who do not know what he is unfair, so he said: "This official has some opinions, but since this is a palace test, it is naturally up to the tribute students to make suggestions, this official has a strategy of Zhao Gongsheng of the Northern Bang Huiyuan, and his policy is much more clever than Liu Gongsheng's view, to deal with the Turks, it is not feasible to blindly suppress and suppress, and it is necessary to suppress and appease and use, It is good to punish the heart, and it is better to focus on the heart than to blindly kill, 'Di Yi enters China, Huaxia', this sentence is in line with the way of the sage's education. ”
Liu Fan sneered: "So, adults think that the reason why students can't be admitted is just because they don't talk about punishment and don't preach, right?" ”
Liu Xi stroked his beard and said: "This is natural, you don't have to mess around, since the results have come out, it is useless to say more, you should retreat quickly." ”
Liu Fan still didn't leave, and said: "Then the student wants to ask, Qin has been in charge of the Central Plains for 14 years, why did Emperor Gaozu rise up, but did not talk about education with Qin?" Qin Shi is a Chinese and can't be educated, but the Turkic barbarians can't be educated? ”
Liu Xi was speechless for a while, Liu Xi wanted to talk about the truth of the sage, who can control so much, but Liu Fan deliberately substantiated the Turks, so that Liu Xi couldn't avoid this question, Liu Xi had to say: "Well, naturally, it is necessary to slowly figure it out." ”
Liu Fan sneered: "What a Xu Xu Tuzhi, our Great Chu Dynasty wore a million armor, but was plundered by the Turks with less than 200,000 residents, and now it is still slowly Tuzhi, who knows that every day when Liu Shilang slowly Tu Tian, more Chu people in the north are looted and thrown into the wilderness, Liu Shilang's Xu Xu Tuzhi can really be called a benevolent house, isn't it the same truth that the saint taught?" ”
His words were already very polite, and Liu Xi couldn't answer for a while.
Zhao Feng, who was sitting on the side, finally couldn't bear it, Liu Fan refuted the indoctrination, which was equivalent to refuting his papers, and this Liu Fan was also bolder, and he dared to question the book readers, he took this opportunity to give the paper readers a better impression, maybe they would need to rely on these adults when they became officials in the future, he got up, walked step by step, and said loudly: "Liu Fan, this is the Baohe Palace, not the Hall, you are too aggressive when you say these words, Lord Shilang does not want to be with you in general, You're presumptuous! ”
At this moment, Liu Fan's mind was empty, and his fame and future were rarely thrown aside by Liu Fan at this moment, restoring his true character as a scholar.
What is a reader? It's just a matter of learning from things! Since you think you have the truth, you should fight for it!
He finally felt why the readers of this era have a sense of sacredness, because every word and deed of this group may affect the direction of the country and everyone!
Liu Fan never thought of himself as a good person, but he would never tolerate barbarism rampant because of his own mistakes, and he would never tolerate more people being looted and tortured because of this!
People are sometimes so strange, when he entered the palace, Liu Fan was still thinking about how to earn fame, but now, he didn't know what hysteria he had, but he felt that he was possessed by a god, and he had to be a saint.
He questioned the examiner, not pretending to be rampant; Arguing with Liu Xi is not bold. There is only one reason, Liu Fan, who thinks that the truth is on his side.
It's just that his words and deeds are suspected of deviant after all, and there are many people who are not used to it, this is the sadness of the times, when everyone is still in the so-called edification, the sober will not be accepted, Zhao Feng stood up and unceremoniously scolded Liu Fan loudly, that is, he captured the psychology of many people in the hall, knowing that he stood up at this time, not only will he not be blamed, but will be appreciated.
