The content of the second exam is poetry, after Xu Gang got the test paper, he was finally relieved, what Liu Fuzi said was really true, they all answered the questions according to the law, not that he had to be brilliant to make poems as he imagined!

Xu Gang first made a fu, and this question gave eight words as rhymes, so that candidates can make up for it, and the number of words is not limited. He only thought about it for a moment, and then put pen to paper......

In the second exam, when many candidates were still thinking hard, Xu Gang had already handed in the papers, and he actually caught up with the lunch made by Wu Ling'er!

The third exam was held on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, and there was only one topic, entitled: "Wandering, the people are incompetent; Towering, its success is also, and it has an article! ”

Uh~~ This topic is simply for flattery! Xu Gang looked at the topic, pursed his lips, and began to study.

This title is taken from the Analects of Taibo, which is the famous passage of Confucius praising Emperor Yao, Xu Gang sighed lightly, began to search for the story of Emperor Yao in his mind, and then found a blank piece of rice paper and wrote down the outline of the treatise.

After thinking for a long time, Xu Gang began to write, quoting scriptures and classics in various ways, calculating the calendar from Yao, teaching the farming season, visiting the virtuous, setting up the drum of advice, and setting up the wood of slander......

He wrote thousands of words in a sprinkled manner, and then he began to praise the successive emperors of this dynasty, from Taizu to the emperor of the dynasty, praising how wise and martial they were, and finally expressed his loyalty, saying that he would also follow the example of the ancient virtuous, inspire and assist today, and do a great career and so on.

After writing the whole article, it was already Shen Shi, and in this scene, Xu Gang was finally not the first person to submit the paper. And because of this, there was another news among the candidates: "Xu Gang submits the paper quickly, that's because he has real talent and real learning!" ”

This news came from the mouth of a candidate not far from Xu Gang's house, he handed in the paper before Xu Gang, and when he passed by Xu Gang's house, after glancing at Xu Gang's answer sheet, it spread as soon as he got out of the examination room, and immediately pushed Xu Gang to the popular position of this year's Xie Yuan candidate.

"I tell you, this is what I saw with my own eyes, and the pen did not pause, and when I passed by, I wrote at least six or seven thousand words!"

"Ah~~~ It's so powerful, then he may have really finished the first two papers......"

"It's very likely, if he really can't do the questions and turns in the paper quickly, then why should he be so serious in the last exam!"

"I'm still more optimistic about Qiu Tianbao, have you heard? Even Mr. Liu praised him well! ”

"I'm better looking at Yang!"

……

These news reached Xu Gang's ears through Cheng Xiaoliu's mouth, and Xu Gang laughed at it. Anyway, he has tried his best, as long as he can get the qualification for the provincial examination, he will be satisfied, as for Xie Yuan's name, he does not force it!

After the night fell, Xu Gang, Liu Ziyi and Wu Ling'er sat together in the courtyard to admire the moon, the osmanthus in the courtyard, with the breeze blowing, the fragrance came one after another, Wu Ling'er took a deep breath, it was so fragrant!

Then she looked at Xu Gang, and suddenly had a thought, so she immediately said to him: "Brother Xu, you are also a scholar now, you see that this osmanthus is so fragrant, why don't you make a poem about Yonggui for us?" ”

Uh, composing poetry? Xu Gang listened to her words, almost choked on the moon cake, took the water handed over by Liu Ziyi, and drank a few gulps before relieving himself.

Looking at Wu Ling'er's eyes full of expectation, Xu Gang decided to satisfy her, so he stood up, swept the eight osmanthus trees in the courtyard one by one, and slowly walked back and forth a few steps with his hands behind his back.

"Eight trees are blowing in the sky, and they are green and not withering at four o'clock. Where the autumn wind starts, the longest first. ”

"Good poetry, good poetry!" After hearing this, Wu Ling'er immediately applauded.

Uh~~ Xu Gang faked coughing twice, nodded with satisfaction and sat down.

Liu Ziyi looked at him from the side, his eyes were full of smiles! Xu Gang was taken aback by her, it's impossible, the person who wrote this poem is not very famous, is it possible that Ziyi knows?

Xu Gang wanted to compose a poem of laurel by himself, but found that there were exactly eight osmanthus trees in the courtyard, and then he remembered that there was a person named Yong Yuzhi in the Tang Dynasty who made such a poem "Gui in the Mountains", so he used it casually!

"Hmph~~ You know how to bully Sister Ling'er!" Liu Ziyi glanced at Xu Gang with disdain.

Wu Ling'er is so smart, when she heard Liu Ziyi say this, she suddenly stopped: "Brother Xu, you actually use other people's poems to perfunctory me, hum, you have to make one yourself!" ”

Xu Gang pretended to be evil, looking at Liu Ziyi, but she hid her face and smiled!

Isn't it just a poem about osmanthus? Xu Gang was also aroused, stood up again, and looked at the osmanthus tree in the courtyard.

It didn't take long for him to open his mouth and say, "The laurel in the Qingqing Garden is like a golden stamen." The breeze blows, and the fragrance makes people drunk. ”

"Good poetry, good poetry!" Wu Ling'er glanced at Liu Ziyi first, and saw that she nodded slightly, knowing that Brother Xu didn't go to copy the poem, she immediately stood up and slapped her palm.

"Hehe, the limerick poems that are made casually, and I don't pay any attention to poetry, I laugh, I laugh!" Xu Gang laughed twice and said modestly.

……

In the pond of Shouchang Temple, the lotus flower, which was originally full of youthful vitality, is now withered and yellow, and it hangs its head lifelessly...... When the morning breeze blew, some of them fell into the water.

"Cold dew!" Xu Gang walked on the wooden bridge of the school, looking at the withered lotus flowers in the pond, and his tone was flat.

"Hmm!" Liu Ziyi followed behind him and answered softly.

"Brother Xu, should be released soon, right?" Liu Ziyi took two steps forward and looked at Xu Gang's back.

"Well, I heard that the list will be released today!" Xu Gang suddenly stopped, and Liu Ziyi behind him almost bumped into him, startling her.

Liu Ziyi punched Xu Gang in the back in disgust, and then asked, "Brother Xu, don't you go outside the Gongyuan to wait for the list?" ”

"I'm too lazy to squeeze it, let's go see it later, it won't change anyway!" Xu Gang shrugged, he didn't want to squeeze around with them. In fact, many well-known students will not guard the list, and basically stay at home and wait for the list!

……

After lunch, Xu Gang was sitting in the lecture hall reading a book, and Cheng Xiaoliu rushed in from outside the door. ”

Did I really get into the exam? Xu Gang looked at him with a happy face, shouting while running, and today was the day of the release of the list, he suddenly felt a little happy in his heart, presumably he must have obtained the qualification for the provincial examination, otherwise Xiaoliu would not be like this. However, he still looked calm, and smiled slightly in surprise: "What happy event do I have?" ”

"Oh, it's just that your brother Zhengyuan can be so calm, I really admire my little brother!" After Cheng Xiaoliu ran into the lecture hall, other classmates who were reading books on the side also gathered around, all wondering if Xu Gang had passed the test.

"Xie Yuan, Xie Yuan! Brother Zhengyuan, you won the first place in the autumn exam! After Cheng Xiaoliu finished speaking, he also stretched out his palm in front of Xu Gang.

Depend on! actually took a solution! It's over, I didn't have enough money today, what should I do? Xu Gang was suddenly a little distressed, because he wanted to give good news to the people who passed on the good news, and it was estimated that many people would come to report the good news in a while!
