Chapter 64: The Strategy of the Proud Army

When making art, the collection of essays and the history of the giant book are placed together, falling and falling, accounting for more than half of the Yao Ji bookstore "Jing Shige", from the last three subjects of the Hangzhou Township Examination to the Beijing Division Examination of the Chinese style of the examination almost all collected and edited and published, the township test solution yuan and the palace test of the champion, Bangyan, Tanhua also have special collections, as for the excellent eight-strand text of the Tong Sheng test, basically all of them are the local works of Shaoxing, Zhang Zongzi and Qi Huzi, the two big Shanyin County prodigies, also have a collection of current texts, called "Prodigy Making Art", a volume of eighteen articles.

Zhang Yuan picked up "The Art of Prodigy" and looked at it slightly, and said with a smile: "This is a must-buy." Put it aside first, then select, and asked Fan Zhendao: "Mr. Fan, why is this the current text of the Shaoxing Mansion students, and the township test is only from Hangzhou, is there any other place?" ”

Fan Zhen said: "The prefectures and counties are different, the style of writing is also different, of course, Shaoxing students only learn to figure out the local famous writers' current literature, so that the opportunity of Chinese style is great, but the style and fashion of the twelve prefectures in the south of the Yangtze River are also similar." ”

Zhang Yuanxin said: "It should be more important to figure out the examiner's style preferences." Asked: "There should be a difference between the current style and the current era in the Jiajing period?" ”

Fan Zhen said: "Of course, there is a difference, the difference is very big, the current text has been hidden with the ancient text, the eight strands of the question cut the scriptures, truncated and shrunk, just so that the writer has the room to play at will, more able to show knowledge and talent, especially the Huiji Wang Jizhong's craftsmanship is the most prominent." ”

Zhang Yuan nodded, since Jiajing, the control of the orthodox Cheng Zhu Lixue over the scholars has been greatly weakened, Buddhism, Taoism, Zhuzi Baijia, Wang Yangming's Xinxue, and even Western learning has spread eastward, and various trends of thought have risen for a while, and the quality of the scriptures and surnames of the sages of the Bagu Wen Dynasty has naturally been greatly impacted, and the kind of Bagu Wen that preaches with a straight face is no longer popular.

Zhang Yuan picked up a well-printed book, it is the store advertisement of the "Gengxu Kedian Temptation to spend money Qianyi Thirty Selected Arts", Qian Qianyi's name can be said to be like thunder, the first of the three major poets of the late Ming Dynasty, and the leader of the Donglin Party, the most famous is to marry Qin Huai's name Liu Ruis, and later "itchy scalp" to cut hair and reduce the Qing Dynasty and secretly fund the anti-Qing rebels, in short, Qian Qianyi is a talented and contradictory figure, of course, these are still later words, it is now the forty years of Wanli, and the age is in Renzi, Qian Qianyi High School Gengxu Branch Tanhua, that is, the year before last, Qian Qianyi is not yet thirty years old, the romance is contained in Tanhualang, this person is knowledgeable, and he should learn it when making art, so he bought it.

Fan Zhen also recommended the "Emperor Ming Shi Wending" edited by Chen Jitai, a famous selector of Bagu Wen, Chen Jitai is a talented man in Linchuan, fifteen years old for all students, and now he is over forty years old, and he still failed to succeed in the township test, but the Bagu article is famous, which is really unfair.

"Huiji Wang Ji Chong Mo Thirty-six Questions" This is naturally a must-buy, but Liu Zongzhou's eight-strand anthology did not see it, and asked the bookstore guy, the guy said that Liu Qidong's special collection was not, but it can be found from the trial production art of the Like Society, Liu Qidong was from the Xin Chouke in the twenty-ninth year of Wanli-

When he was looking for books, a young man in a square scarf and shirt came into the bookstore, and when Zhang Yuan saw it, he hurriedly said, "Brother Huang is also here to buy books." ”

This young talent is from Jiujiang Huang Ting Huang Molei, today it is said that it is a double said, Mr. Qidong does not teach, he came over to see if there is a new arrival in the township test Shiwen, Huang Ting in order to learn from Liu Zongzhou, gave up this year's township test, thousands of miles away from home, and studied in a negative way, not to follow Liu Zongzhou to do learning, but to be more sure in the Nanchang Township Examination in Jiangxi three years later-

Huang Ting saw that it was Zhang Yuan, and said politely: "It turned out to be Brother Zhang, what books did Brother Zhang buy?" Looking at these collections of current essays selected by Zhang Yuan, he said with a smile: "A few days ago, Mr. Qidong also mentioned you, saying that Zhang Jiezi's craftsmanship didn't know how to learn?" - Why, Brother Zhang is only starting to learn now? ”

Zhang Yuan nodded and said, "Yes, thank you Mr. Qidong for your concern." ”

Huang Ting smiled and didn't say more, because at that time, Mr. Qidong said that those who have lost a fortune will grow wise, and the loss of this day may not be the gain of the future, which clearly thinks that Zhang Yuan is doomed, and he will fall hard.

Huang Ting asked the bookstore guy if the text of this year's township exam had arrived?

The guy said: "There are three township tests, one is one, from the ninth to the eleventh of the first month, and then the grading, roll call, and writing the list will always be in the second half of the year, and today it is only sixteen, and there is no yellow list yet, as for the ink roll to be circulated and published, it will be in mid-September at the earliest." ”

Huang Ting saw that there were no books to buy, so he wanted to go back, Zhang Yuan invited Huang Ting to sit in his house, Huang Ting thanked him politely, and went back to Dashan Temple first.

After choosing the book to buy, Zhang Yuan asked the bookstore guy to move the book to calculate the price, a total of 28 volumes, including 20 volumes of "Emperor Ming Shi Wending" edited by Chen Jitai, 2 volumes of "Huiji Wang Ji Chong Mo Thirty-six Questions", 1 volume of "Gengxu Kedian Temptation to Spend Money and Qianyi Art Selection" 1 volume, "Prodigy Making" 1 volume, "Selected Texts of the County Children's Examination" 2 volumes, Wu Ting's "Hologram Ancient and Modern Novels" two volumes are also priced together, a total of eight coins and four cents of silver, and it is already a preferential price-

This book is really frighteningly expensive, a book is only a few dozen pages thin, and the twenty-eight volumes are not half a foot thick when stacked, but after thinking about it, this is a Ming version of the book, and the paper and ink are not bad, Zhang Yuan ordered Wuling to pay.

When the bookstore guy was weighing the silver with a silver scale, a Fujian sedan chair stopped in front of the store, Yao Fu got off the sedan chair and entered the bookstore, he was in the bookstore steward's urgent report before he rushed over, pulling his face and laughing dryly: "It turned out to be Zhang Dagongzi, Zhang Dagongzi is so studious, it really makes Yao awe-inspiring." ”

Zhang Yuan looked left and right and said in surprise: "Hey, Yao Ji Bookstore, this is your shop?" I don't want these books. ”

Yao Fu looked quite kind and wealthy, and said: "Don't be rash, buy books to buy books, gamble to gamble, and the well water does not violate the river water." Asked the guy how much silver, and said: "Four cents and a half are free, even if it is eight dollars of silver-Zhang Gongzi still wants to buy more art and literature, read more than 10,000 volumes, and write like a god." ”

Zhang Yuan said: "After reading these twenty-six volumes, it will be almost the end of October, farewell, and the county Confucianism will see you again." ”

Yao Fu stood in front of the bookstore and watched Zhang Yuan and the four of them walk away, sneering again and again, and his heart was determined, he was still worried that Zhang Yuan would have some tricks, such as Zhang Rulin coming forward to lobby those students in the county, etc., this must be guarded against, so he instructed the Li family servants to pay attention to Zhang Yuan and Xi Zhang's movements, but Zhang Yuan just sat at home behind closed doors, and he didn't know if he was studying.

So Yao Fu decided that he would win this bet, but he felt annoyed, and said in his heart: "When I said how could I bet with such a yellow-mouthed child, and also made a deed to keep a photo, this kid is only starting to read eight shares now, it's just a trick on me, these people will treat and give gifts have spent dozens of taels of silver, and the twenty taels of Zhang Dachun's lawsuit silver that he got last time were all pasted into it, and he said that he went to Qishan to see that Wen Xiucai and was scolded by the rotten Confucian, I was really angry with me, after this gamble, I want to let the rotten Confucianism taste my means, I want to let his family ruin." ”

Today, I have seen Zhang Yuan, Yao Fu no longer plans to visit other students, as long as nineteen of the fifty-four students do not recognize Zhang Yuan's eight shares of craftsmanship, then he Yao Fu wins, and these nineteen Yao Fu have all done a good job of dredging, winning is definitely winning, but it's a pity that the silver spent -

"Zhang Yuan boy, don't think that if you lose, you just won't participate in the imperial examination for the rest of your life, how can I, Yao Fu, let you go so easily!"

Yao Fu snorted coldly and went back in a Fujian sedan chair.
