Chapter 4 The Four Gates of the Xie Clan
Although Xie Shen is very familiar with "Mencius" and even the Four Books, he does not know much about the "Commentary on the Four Books". Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
This is Xie Shen's fatal weakness, and if he wants to make achievements in the imperial examination, this loophole will have to be filled sooner or later.
He hurriedly opened the annotations of the four books, found the annotations of this paragraph, and studied them carefully.
In fact, this passage can be summed up in one sentence, that is, the emperors of all dynasties in China have taken "loving the people like sons" as the standard for judging whether they are Ming monarchs. A monarch who loves his people like a son will surely live on for generations......
But how do you solve the problem? Xie Shenzheng spontaneously worried, and suddenly thought of an eight-strand example article that he read in later generations, and this article seemed to be written for the section on King Wen's view of the people.
Xie Shen has no other skills, but this unforgettable ability is unique.
He took a deep breath and sighed secretly, I was born to be useful!
......
......
After writing the article, Xie Shen closed his eyes and waited for Old Master Liu to announce that it was time to close the volume.
Quizzes like this are conducted two or three times a month in order to help students master the feeling of actual combat. If they only talk about solving problems and don't practice the current text, most of these students will be confused when they get to the county exam.
Old Master Liu is a person from the past, since he is going to take the examination for the academy, he has to do the details to the extreme, and he doesn't disdain to be a clear sage.
This batch of students are all going to take next year's county exam, so their foundation is excellent, and there is no problem even if they write big questions. However, Xie Shen wrote the current essays of the champions, and in order to be safe, he specially deleted several wonderful turns, leaving flaws.
People, when it is time to be in the limelight, you have to be in the limelight, but you can stop in moderation, if you don't know how to endure, it will be a big thing.
I don't know how long it took, Old Master Liu nodded and said, "Wrap it up." ”
The self-owned little girl handed over the exam papers written by the students to the old master Liu's bookcase, as for those who had no ink on their chests and couldn't hold back a fart for a long time, they naturally glanced at it and ignored it anymore. The little guy passed by Xie Shen and stayed for a moment, and this detail was naturally noticed by Xie Shen. If anyone is the most snobbish, it is none other than the little guys in these academies. After following Master Liu for a long time, who is from a famous family, and who is a poor family but has the talent to learn, they can see it better than anyone else. They are closer to these people than anyone else, and their attitude towards the people next to them is cold.
Old Master Liu flipped through the examination papers one by one, and some of the articles only glanced at them hurriedly and frowned, while others took a lot of time to read the tea.
Xie Shen's eyelids were a little fighting, and he secretly slandered in his heart, this old master is too hypocritical, does it take so long to read an article? He already has a draft of this article, and he was born from the champion manuscript, so he is naturally full of confidence.
This time, he won't be the first name, who can get the first name? Then Old Master Liu will not be so stupid as to not know good goods, right?
"Which one is Xie Shen?"
Yes! Old Master Liu is calling himself?
Xie Shen was excited, looked at the old master Liu who was not far away, and hurriedly said, "The student is." ”
"With the people and the Tao in mind, see the endless learning of King Zhou."
Old Master Liu pinched the exam paper and walked to Xie Shen's side and asked in a deep voice, "You wrote this article?" ”
Xie Shen nodded: "It was indeed made by the students." ”
"Okay, okay, I didn't expect that the Simen Xie clan had another talent."
Yuyao County, like other counties with strong imperial examinations, has a concentration of major imperial examination wizards. In the Hongzhi Dynasty, the most powerful family in the imperial examination was none other than the Candle Lake Sun family, the Simen Xie family, and the Shangtang Wang family.
Compared with the other two, the prosperity of the Xie family is more because of the big Buddha Xie Qian. Xie Qian is the first in the township test in Chenghua for ten years, that is, Xie Yuan, and the first Jinshi in the eleventh year of Chenghua, and he won the champion, and the two yuan in the middle are really perverted. Later, Xie Qian's second son Xie Pi was in the eighteenth year of Hongzhi in the first three Jinshi, Xie Qian's father and son were both Jinshi and the first, Hanlin was an official, and it was a beautiful talk for a while. But these are all later words, so I won't show them for the time being.
The ancestors of the Simen Xie family can be traced back to the Western Jin Dynasty, when some of the Xie children migrated to Huiji and then migrated to Linhai, and then moved to Yuyao, Shaoxing at the end of the Song Dynasty.
If you really want to chase it up, your own five suits were still the same as the four Xie clans before.
However, this old master Liu must have made a mistake, and now his own branch will not be classified as the Simen Xie clan anyway.
"Well, the student is not from the Simen Xie clan."
No matter what, Xie Shen would not do such a thing as swaggering and cheating, and he didn't have the strength, so why bother clinging to the wang clan.
"Not the Simen Xie Clan?"
Old Master Liu was obviously very surprised, after all, almost every family in Yuyao County has children studying, and it is not uncommon for children from poor families to have one or two children, but it is a little surprising that these children of poor families can make such peerless articles.
Xie Shen was very helpless in his heart, it seemed that this old master Liu only asked about his family background when he accepted students, as long as he offered the bundle, he could go to this White Deer Academy to listen to the class. Although this character is a little worse, his knowledge is still excellent. Xie Shen only hoped that he could pass the small three-yuan exam as soon as possible and become a showman, so that he could escape from Bailu Academy.
"Your article is still good, but it's still a little worse than Sun Ruoxu's."
Old Master Liu stroked the long hair on his chin and said quietly. Although the voice was very soft, it sounded so harsh to Xie Shen.
In fact, Old Master Liu was also speechless, there were so many students in the school, it was impossible for him to know everything about the family background of every student. This is really a joke.
He didn't teach Xie Shen for a long time, and he didn't deliberately investigate the family background of this inconspicuous student, but from Xie Shen's dress, he could also tell that the boy could not be from the four Xie family's lineage. But he thought that at least this kid should be mixed up with other branches. Although the treatment of the children of the collateral line is very different from that of the descendants of the descendants, at least there is a bright head of the Xie clan of the four sects, which is much better than the children of ordinary poor families.
Hearing that Xie Shen didn't even touch the name of the wang clan, Old Master Liu's attitude took a 180-degree turn, although he still affirmed Xie Shen's article, but he set the first name as Sun Ruoxu, the son of the Candle Lake Sun family. This Sun Ruoxu is the eldest grandson of the Sun family in Candle Lake, and he is the best among the children of the Sun family in this generation, so he is naturally expected to have high hopes. This old master Liu also put a lot of effort into Sun Ruoxu, hoping that he can win all the way and become a high school scholar.
Old Master Liu has been like this in his life, but if he can teach one or two Jinshi to pass it on, it will also be a beautiful thing to talk about. Old Master Liu completely cultivated Sun Ruoxu according to his son, otherwise he would not have handpicked Sun Ruoxu's article as the first after hesitation.
