Chapter 20: Getting the Official Writing Done

Li Xi sat in the small garden with a sad face. A small pavilion with no lid on it, but with an ingenious deep trellis set, a stone table, and several stone benches with brocade cushions.

The wind and the sun are beautiful, and the sunlight shines obliquely from the top of the trellis, passing through the gaps in the trellises, casting strange shaking shadows on the ground and stone tables. The breeze was slow, and the paper in front of Li Xi rustled continuously.

On the stone table, where there was a stack of thick books and papers, a test that seemed to be halfway completed was rustling in the breeze, and the ink on the paper was dry, as if no new words had been added for a long time.

The girl subconsciously fiddled with the paperweight, and sighed faintly.

After a while, he was going to save the test, and Li Xi felt that he couldn't escape this experience, so he was sent to Lin Shibo by his grandfather, although he was a little reluctant, but he was helpless.

Lin Shibo's name is Lin Xianzu, he is a scholar in Wangbei Mansion, and he is a well-known Confucian scholar in the empire, and he is more virtuous and dedicated to cultivating Confucianism, otherwise he would not be able to learn in the land of the empire.

Although his grandfather only had a favor for him back then, he did not have the reality of a master and apprentice. But over the years, he has also been a teacher to his grandfather, and he has become very friendly with his family. Yes, as soon as he was going to Fucheng to prepare for the provincial test, his grandfather was the first to think of Lin Shibo.

In order to allow himself to consult the Fang family at any time, and to concentrate on Confucianism - if he was in Changzhi, he would probably be full of thoughts in the county school laboratory that had become his own territory and could be used at will. Fucheng may not be so convenient.

Although he has always been impatient to participate in the provincial examination of Raushzi, his grandfather has high hopes for himself, and Sister Yuwei also said that it is better to have a lifting identity, and the Wang Academy of Sciences will most likely only enter the examination unless there are special reasons.

After many interweavings, this provincial test is inevitable - it will arrive sooner or later, and sooner or later it will have to be borrowed, and it doesn't hurt to be a few months earlier.

This came to Lin Shibo's house, Lin Shibo naturally cared for himself, arranged a unique courtyard with a small garden for himself, and transferred a large number of maids and mothers-in-law, but he was afraid that he would not take good care of him. In his spare time every day, he has to come to teach and test his homework in person, teaching him his experience in recent years, grammar, and even private questions.

It's just that without the laboratory, without the days of Changzhi being free, it is really boring to face these boring scriptures and texts all day long......

Li Xi thought again.

"Forget it, let's take a break."

She muttered, not knowing what she thought, but her eyes gradually lit up.

I saw that she thought about it, but she turned out a picture from a thick stack of papers on the side, which was the three views drawn by Xie Xiuqi during the Changzhi period.

The girl carefully studied the patterns on the paper.

"The bastard...... The guy's three views are really good, and the centrifuge is not bad......"

"But how can I improve what I want to divide and what I want...... Although the way to save money has not yet been found, the method of saving labor has also fallen on this centrifuge...... But this speed can't be faster, which will lead to structural instability...... In Changzhi, I tried to improve and speed up the rotation, but I almost hit someone......"

"What the hell should I do?"

The girl looked at the picture and muttered, her face was already full of interest, and after a while, she couldn't stop drawing and counting on the paper.

After a while, I saw the girl sigh, but threw her pen on the table with a puff.

"What kind of broken centrifuge, no matter how you calculate it, it will be unevenly stressed...... I want it to be evenly stressed, but I need an extremely precise structure. And whether it is manpower or material resources, it is impossible to maintain an extremely precise and stable rate...... There's no way to improve it - it's just a pile of rags! ”

"That guy might be able to do it...... But after waiting for so many days, I didn't come, hmph, didn't I want to try Tekko? I must be afraid that this girl will come back with revenge for the events of the day...... I'm not so careful......"

The girl puffed up in a series of puffs.

That day, his grandfather actually wanted to teach him Confucianism, and he didn't want to, but when he thought of making this person bow down in front of him once, he was also very interested-hmph, this girl was teased by you at the beginning, but she wanted to return it, and she really couldn't let go of this good opportunity.

Thinking like this, I waited and waited excitedly, but I waited for several days and no one came.

And Confucianism also made me feel extremely bored, and gradually I couldn't even eat well. made Shibo think that his subordinates were not well served, but let himself explain a few words.

But how do you have to live this day......

The girl sighed, and her pretty little brow was already full of tangles.

was grieving, but saw that the footsteps were already from far and near.

Looking back, her maid Qing'er ran over excitedly: "Miss...... Na Xie ...... Your senior brother Xie is here. ”

She frowned.

Li Xi was overjoyed, and she was already overjoyed.

……

Xie Xiuqi took An Qian to walk in the beautiful little garden, and his mouth was really a little surprised.

The classical Chinese garden is really a great example in the history of human architecture, although it does not have the atmosphere of modern architecture, but its exquisite and exquisite artistic conception is profound, but it is breathtaking - even the small garden of such a small private courtyard has a fresh and timeless taste.

In front of the pavilion, a girl was happily behind her back/smiling/standing there proudly, but who was Li Xi?

"Hello little junior sister." Xie Xiuqi arched his hand, and also greeted Li Xi with a smile to himself.

On the way from Changzhi to Fucheng, the young man had more contact with the girl, and gradually, he found that although the girl was still full of hostility to herself, her heart was less resistant, and at least she gradually accepted her as a senior brother.

Sure enough, I saw that the girl looked up to the sky and glanced at him, and she didn't know if it was Bai Lao Tian or Bai Him, and she even said "Who is your little junior sister", but she also returned the salute slightly, and then turned around and entered the pavilion.

"What? I finally found out that the special science test was not so good, and I came to find someone to ask for advice? Wasn't someone very good at the beginning? But why do you want to ask the little girl for such a superficial question? ”

As soon as he sat down, Li Xi was arrogant, but his eyebrows were full of smiles.

Xie Xiuqi smiled secretly, his eyes glanced at it, and he found the half-test essay on the table that had been dried in ink for an unknown amount of time.

He rolled his eyes, but he also had a little sad face: "That's right, I found out that the Confucian writing is simply torturous......

"Not really!" Li Xi suddenly felt a sense of bosom friend: "It's still your life, your special test is okay, it's very shallow." The provincial test is really fatal...... I just don't understand, how interesting is science, and how easy is the truth? Confucianism is difficult and profound, and it is just a game of words when it comes and goes, and what is the benefit of the family and the country......"

The girl was full of resentment, but she also criticized Confucianism.

During this period, Xie Xiuqi responded appropriately from time to time with a few words, condemned a few times, and praised Li Xi's insightful views a few times. In an instant, the girl still had a little bit of caution about making things difficult for the young man and flew away from the clouds, and after the Confucianism denunciation meeting, she was already smiling and seriously pointed out the basic lines of Xie Xiuqi's Confucianism.

Xie Xiuqi smiled secretly in his heart, you can't be even, you little girl, my brother and his brother have not lived in vain? I became famous in science as soon as possible, and most of it fell on Li Shi, who has a lot to do with the Wang Academy of Sciences, so it is necessary to have a good relationship with you.

But speaking of which, I knew that I should have taken the word "Pingzhi" in the first place...... That's all kinds of fate with the little sister. He happened to be the youngest disciple of Master Li, and he was a little different from Brother Zhiping on the shore of Daming Lake, but he was very compatible with Brother Ping under the cliff. If it is called "Pingzhi", this tiger body is shocked, and it is possible for the little junior sister to immediately take the spring breeze and disperse...... Do you still need to spend time coaxing her?

thought strangely in his heart for a while, and then, he also learned from Li Xi seriously.

……

It wasn't until the sun was empty that the two of them stopped with some uncertainty.

Li Xi was tortured by Confucianism for several days, and was even more urged by his teacher and uncle, and was quite satisfied with the addiction of "It turns out that my Confucianism is so strong, I can actually teach others".

Xie Xiuqi also gained a lot - no wonder everyone said that the special science test was easy, the most basic text of Confucianism was indeed not as difficult as imagined, but he was not allowed to enter the door at the beginning, and he felt a little scary to see the flowers in the fog outside.

Generally speaking, Confucian official writing only requires the author to express the meaning that needs to be expressed in a relatively fixed format, taking into account both conciseness and appropriateness. Battles, neatness, allusions, literary style, etc., in fact, the requirements are very low. It's better if you can do all of this, but it's okay if you don't.

Therefore, after mastering the doorway, college students in the 21st century actually have such ancient literary qualities.

Just like the few sentences he said in the Fang family at the beginning, "If it is easy to indulge and be extended, how can the upper and lower platforms always exist?" If you don't take precautions and handle this case more strictly, what is the foundation of the empire? The Fang family harbored evil intentions, trampled on the guidelines, shook the throne, and divided the three powers".

It is already better than many official words and phrases in terms of literary style.

So it seems...... The biggest obstacle has gone, and this special test is really easy for me.

Seeing that Li Xi proudly assigned a few homework, the young man smiled in his heart, but he didn't feel anything bad.

After all, it's one thing to know the method, but it's another thing to use it to write decent, impeccable text. Practice makes perfect, practice more in the future, and even use it to let Li Xi point out where he writes well and where he makes mistakes, which is still very necessary.

Although the requirements for the special science test are very simple, you can't be careless, right? I don't know what other people will do with this.

Xie Xiuqi thought with a smile, and his heart was already happy.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Suddenly, I received a short encouragement from a brother, saying that I didn't think this book was bad at all, but I liked it very much, and I listed a lot of reasons, and I didn't charge my subscription fee for six or seven hundred words, which moved me inexplicably.

The editor in charge is not optimistic, and he can only survive by relying on the gentlemen who happen to like this book......

It's still the same old saying, I hope you can vote more...... I hope that you can remember this book when you talk about novels with your friends, and mention a sentence or two...... I hope that if you like to mix forums, if you can write a few words in the reading forum and post a post, I recommend one or two. I am even more grateful.

All one plus two can do is to work hard to write every chapter, hoping to be worthy of themselves and the love of all you.

In the past two days, I have turned depression into strength, and I have saved a few more chapters and manuscripts. Keep it up and roll off the codeword. Finally, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to that brother and to all those who liked this book for their love, and please rest assured that I will definitely work hard.
