The first question of the third session is a big question, which is to extract a complete sentence from the "Four Books" and ask you to compose an eight-strand essay according to the meaning of this sentence.

There are some differences between the Ming Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty's Bagu Wen exam questions, for example, most of the Ming Dynasty examiners made big questions, while most of the small questions were used by private school teachers to test students' familiarity with Confucian classics. By the end of the Qing Dynasty, when the questions of the Four Books and the Five Classics had been exhausted, and it could be said that each sentence was followed by a hundred and ten model essays, the examiner did not come up with some small questions such as cutting towers. This is already a problem, not a selection of useful talents.

Bao Yingxia is an honest gentleman, so naturally she has no intention of fighting wits with the candidates. The title is very simple, "Mo Chun, spring clothes are completed, five or six champions, six or seven boys, bathing in Yi, the wind is dancing, and the master sighs: I and the dots."

This sentence comes from the "Analects", which means: In the late spring of March, I have already put on spring clothes, and I and five or six adults, six or seven teenagers, went to take a bath in the Yi River, blew the wind on the dance platform, and sang all the way back. Confucius said with emotion: I agree with Zeng Dian's opinion.

The scene described is a scene of social unity, where the country no longer needs to be governed, the inhabitants live and work in peace and contentment, without stealing or stealing, and everyone lives a life of prosperity and happiness every day. And it was this kind of society that Confucius wanted to see. So he would approve.

This text can be said to be a must-read subject for every candidate when they get started, and I don't know how many articles I have done according to this sentence.

After getting the question sheet, as soon as they saw this sentence, many candidates let out a long breath and showed a relaxed smile on their faces.

But Wu Jie knows that the easier the topic to do, the more difficult it is to write well. Just because the topic is not difficult, everyone can do it, and there are many people with the same views, if you want to get a high score by being different, I am afraid that it is a little difficult. And spelling writing, among the 3,000 candidates, there are also people who have a splendid pen.

Since you can enter this examination room, you can easily make this question. Just because it is too easy to write, and most of them are clichés, the examiner will inevitably not be aesthetically tired when he looks at the papers. Wu Jie can be sure that not many people can get high scores, so no matter what the next few questions are, if this question can be done well, he will be able to grab Mr., and he will be in an invincible position first.

So, what should I copy?

To be honest, Wu Jie has the most fan texts on hand on this topic, from the Xuande year of the Ming Dynasty to the Xuantong year of the late Qing Dynasty, and if you really want to memorize it, it will not be too late to memorize it.

Therefore, he found five articles from the Huiyuan and Jieyuan texts of each session of the examination for reference, and then made a decision according to the situation of the examination room and the examiner.

Because of his strong ability to be resourceful, Wu Jie can easily find out the exam questions in a certain year, month and place in modern society, but the examiner's surname is not searchable. And the examiner's taste directly determines your test score, so, in general, he will prepare several sample essays with different flavors in advance, and then make a decision when the time comes.

Bao Yingxia, the chief examiner of this subject, is Wu Jie's teacher, but he doesn't have much contact, and Wu Jie has no way of knowing what kind of articles he likes, so he can only roughly estimate.

He thought about it for a while and recalled the last time he took the college exam in Chengdu, where he won the first place. Sichuan this year's examination Bao Yingxia has a total of two eight-strand essay questions, one is "Do Not Suffer", selected from "Analects"; One title is "Missing Chapters", selected from "The Mean".

At that time, Wu Jie didn't think about what kind of writing Master Bao liked, and for insurance, Suo copied Qian Qianyi's two model essays. The cow kills the chicken and wins the championship in one fell swoop.

Qian Muzhai was the leader of the literary world in the late Ming Dynasty, and was known as the three masters of Jiangzuo along with Wu Weiye and Gong Dingyu, and Qu Shiyun, Gu Yanwu, and Zheng Chenggong were all his students. His articles are grandiose, and he is a key surname figure in the Ming and Qing dynasties, and is known as "contemporary article uncle".

In terms of style, although it still has strong Mingwen characteristics, it can vaguely find some shadows of ancient Qing Dynasty texts.

It is estimated that it is because the charm of Qingwen is so fresh to the people of the Ming Dynasty that it entered the eyes of Lord Bao and was named the head of the case.

"Well, it seems that it is impossible to copy the Ming people's articles. If you want to write the characteristics in this ordinary topic, you really have to find it from the Qing text. Wu Jie figured out this joint and woke up.

Fortunately, he happened to have a useful article at hand, which was an article of the same name written by Hu Renyu, and with this article, he got the first name of the township test, Xie Yuan.

Hu Renyu is not famous in history, and he was edited by the Hanlin Academy in the Kangxi year. The Hanlin Academy in the Qing Dynasty was a pension institution, and he nested in it all his life, and he never did anything earth-shattering. But this man's knowledge is very good, and he is also a master of exams.

Kangxi won the first place in the 20th year of the township test, and won the first place in the 33rd year of the Kangxi examination, which is what we call the champion.

This is nothing, the township examination room he participated in is located in Nanjing, Nanjing is a place to produce talents, and he can kill generals there, which shows how powerful he is.

This guy has to get the first place in every exam, it's just an exam machine. In addition, he is from the Qing Dynasty again, and if he does not copy his articles, he is sorry for the motherland, the people, and the prophetic sense of the traverser.

Thinking of this, Wu Jie immediately wanted to put pen to paper. But after thinking about it, the township test is very important, and it is also very important to yourself, so you should be cautious.

I was not busy answering the paper, so I picked up the brush and honestly started the draft, preparing to write the sample essay on the draft first, and then transcribe the exam paper after checking.

In fact, the problem-solving part of this model essay is also very ordinary, and the topic is also very ordinary.

But when it comes to the beginning of the stock, it shows the skill of this Hu Zhuangyuan.

For example, let's talk about the next two to one paragraph: the honorable person, the meeting of the king. Yu Gao Yidan, if there was no such encounter at that time, how could it be drowned to the end of the old age, the world is very big, if there must be something to wait and then express his nostalgia, set up as if it is not even, will have no self-seeing period for his life.

The scenery is also famous. Huang Nong Yu Xia, today is not the same as this wind period, it is difficult to see the bustle again, and the characters are still there. If they have nothing to do and are happy, they will move and travel to the sky, and they will be satisfied at the moment.

Another example is the last two than the part: when the surname is in love? No, suddenly at this time, suddenly entertaining this realm, let the ears and eyes take it, and the life is not full of songs, this weather, the class is not below three generations. Will be a little crazy, not more than Dao?

Where is the reason for the universe? can be grasped, such as the twilight of spring and then for the time, must be the crown of the child and then for the person, must be returned and then for the realm. The pretentiousness of the high-mindedness, and the stagnation between the traces, this is its weather, but the hermit flow also, will be deep, not shallow?

…… This is the essence of the article, and later generations commented: once a period of twilight spring bath, the divine theory is the most difficult to understand, and the writer is the most rare to be just right, but Kangxi Xinyouke, Jiangnan came up with this question, Xie Yuan Hu Renyu, understand the unique super, and know from afar.

…… For this article, Wu Jie has great confidence.

However, when it comes to the bundle of strands, the sentence "The commentator is the will of the point, and the ambition of the husband and the old man and the young are slightly compatible, so it is urgent to follow it." And the Master should say that he only sighed, and those who were so prosperous did not say why. At that time, Wu Jie suddenly found that there was a big trouble, and he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
