Chapter 374: Last Question, Yongyue?

Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

After writing the second half of "Spring River Flower Moonlight Night", Qin Yong's second question was completed. And look at the time again? It seems like another hour has passed.

And at this time, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it seems that this will test the two-day and one-night exam time stipulated in the big exam, which really makes sense. At the very least, if he wants to completely answer the ten questions, it is estimated that there will not be much time left in the end.

In fact, the main factor restricting him is his understanding of the topic, because his level of classical Chinese is relatively limited, so sometimes it takes a lot of time to understand the meaning of one of the questions, so although many of his answers are copied from later poems, the time spent in the end is not short.

Of course, this is not to say that because of this, other people will be faster than him. Because, although they don't have any problems in understanding the questions, they have even more problems in answering them.

Because, this is to study a person's true talent, but in this world, how many people can be like the ancient Cao Zhi, seven steps into poetry?

Therefore, the most likely situation is that they generally spend an hour or two or even more on a topic, and then they can barely write one or two poems that are more in line with the proposition.

However, this is just to write it, and to make the quality of the poem higher, it needs to be crafted, that is, it takes more time.

So, don't look at Qin Yong's ability to answer two questions after such an hour or two, but in fact, his degree is relatively fast among the more than ten candidates in the same room.

And after answering two questions. Qin Yong already had a general understanding of the content and form of this imperial examination, so he also had a certain amount of psychological preparation for the unexpected situations that he might encounter, so he spent the next two or three hours. He is not in a hurry, just bury his head in answering the questions.

It's just that although he spent most of the time in the past two or three hours, he buried himself in answering questions, but when it was time for the unitary. When it was close to his usual dinner, he brought out the food that was placed in the bamboo tube and ate it. After a few hours, the temperature of these meals will definitely be lost, but in comparison, it is still relatively warm, so. When Qin Yong was feasting again, the words of these candidates in the same dormitory like Zhang Shouye and others were distracted by those "pungent" smells.

"It's really hateful, if this son can't be a high school member this time, he will definitely not let you go!"

At this time, Zhang Shouye really hated Qin Yong so much that his teeth itched, so he couldn't help but think to himself in his heart.

It's just that. He didn't think about it carefully, Qin Yong's inadvertently distracting him had already made him so uncomfortable, but what kind of behavior did he deliberately plan to let the medical examiner withhold Qin Yong's dry food? Wouldn't that be even more abominable? It's just that because Qin Yong's preparation is relatively sufficient, so. His "treacherous scheme" just didn't succeed.

Of course, someone as selfish and stingy as him would never remember this. He only remembered that he was trapped by Qin Yong. However, he didn't care about Qin Yong's own thing, that is, he didn't care about it at all.

"Alas, it's getting dark so soon! Forget it, I'll get some sleep! ”

After the unitary hour, the sky gradually darkened. In the case of this general examination, there is generally no pause or rest, but the entire time of two days and one night is freely arranged by the candidates.

So, when the sky really darkened, most of the candidates in the entire number room had already taken out the white candles that had been prepared for a long time and lit them.

Because, their plan is to fight with the lights, even if they can't answer the questions all night, but at the very least, they have to compress the sleeping time to the shortest, because, only in this way, they will have enough time to answer the questions. This is also the norm in the imperial examination, but Qin Yong doesn't plan to do this, because he thinks that since this ordinary habit is like this, it is better not to break it casually.

Moreover, if he didn't rest well, it was difficult to guarantee that he would have enough energy to answer the question the next day, so, after a little weighing, he quickly chose to sleep on time.

It's just that such a decision of his suddenly attracted the attention of every candidate in the entire number room. Because, they really haven't seen anyone sleep so peacefully in this examination room where the big exam will be taken.

It's no wonder that people like them take a nap in the early hours of the morning, but that's at most a temporary measure taken when they can't support it. However, Qin Yong's current behavior is not like this, he is completely relaxed, so not long after he fell asleep, he actually snored in front of everyone. Of course, in fact, his snoring was not very loud, but in the examination room that seemed so quiet at the moment, it was quite harsh, so if candidates like Zhang Shouye and them were in the same room, it would be equivalent to suffering a lot of torture.

Fortunately, this torture was still much lighter than the taste of the previous meal, so it wasn't long before they were engaged in their own answers.

It wasn't until the next day's clock that Qin Yong woke up from his sleep quietly.

Actually, if it was placed in normal times, he would be lying in bed more often at this hour, but there was no way, after all, it was already late April, and the weather was already hot to a certain extent, and in this tribute courtyard, the heat dissipation effect was far from being as good as that of their mansion, plus there were so many mosquitoes, insects, rats and ants, so it was quite rare for him to be able to sleep until the end of the hour. So, there's nothing to ask for.

"This ...... It's true? ”

Since he couldn't sleep, then Qin Yong wouldn't be reluctant, after all, he had been asleep for four or five hours, so that time was already enough.

But he had slept enough. The surrounding candidates were at their most exhausted, so when he picked up the pen and prepared to continue answering the questions, many of the candidates around him "fell asleep" at this time.

Of course, this did not affect Qin Yong's mood. After all, he didn't think about how important this general examination was, like other candidates, so he quickly forgot about other people's affairs, and then continued to devote himself to answering questions.

It's just that you have to complete all the remaining questions. It was really not easy, and most of the time he couldn't figure out the meaning of the question, but when he saw the last question, he was directly stunned.

"Isn't it? Yongyue? ”

That's right, after Qin Yongtong's own inferences and guesses, he came to the conclusion that this last topic should be "Yongyue".

The proposition of "Yongyue" is for Qin Yong. Nature is too familiar to be more familiar. After all, when he first revealed his "ability", it was because of "Yongyue", and because of this proposition, he finally won the name of "Yongyue Gongzi".

Therefore, even if he only brought up the "Water Tune Song Head" and "Silent Night Thoughts", he would be able to answer this question. It's just that. These two poems have already been written after all, and the time is not short. Although in the past, most of these two poems were only circulated in the Jiangnan area, but who can be sure that the examiners who marked the papers must not have heard these two poems at that time? So, in the end, if it is assessed as plagiarism, wouldn't it be wronged?

Of course, in fact, even if it is not plagiarism, if you directly follow the poems written by the candidates themselves in the past like this, according to the rules of the imperial examination, it is not allowed. Because, such a imperial examination tests the candidate's on-the-spot adaptability, so whether it is plagiarizing other people's poems, or following the poems made by oneself in the past, it can be regarded as a violation.

It's just that if you didn't express the poems you wrote in the past, no one knows how to use them today. However, such a situation is generally rare, because it is generally more difficult to really bump into such a previously made proposition in the entrance examination, so ordinary people will not bother with this at all.

And besides, talented people generally prefer to show off, especially in poetry. Therefore, if they usually make a so-called good poem or good word, most of them will say it directly, and in this way, their poetry is likely to reach the ears of others.

And once it reaches the ears of others, it is very likely that someone will come out to testify against their violations. Because, every candidate who finally graduated from high school to Jinshi, their poems need to be publicized to the public, especially those Jinshi who are ranked in the top ranks, and their poems will be recited by readers all over the world, so if there is plagiarism or violations, it will not escape the ears and eyes of everyone at all.

Even if ten or eight years have passed, as long as the testimony has enough evidence to prove that the candidates have plagiarism or violations, it is very likely that the court will hold them responsible.

Well, people who just follow their past poems are still guilty of a little less, and they are generally just dismissed from their posts and investigated. However, if you use plagiarism to become a jinshi in the end, you may even be condemned as a major crime of defrauding the king.

This can be regarded as an example of the relatively clear rule of the officials of the Great Zhou Dynasty, because, if there is a condition for this system, those who want to cheat in the imperial examination for personal gain will inevitably have to weigh it, and if they can't pass the Jinshi exam, it is still a trivial matter, and if it is really condemned as a major crime of bullying the king, it is possible to punish the nine clans. Many people can understand this truth, so in the imperial examination of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the phenomenon of plagiarism can be regarded as relatively rare.

"What should I do, which one is better?"

It is impossible for the other candidates to dare to copy the same poems of other people, even if they are slightly changed. However, in Qin Yong's words. This question does not exist at all. Because, if he wants to copy, it can all be the poems of the Tang and Song dynasties on another plane. But in this era, there are no words. Therefore, what he has to worry about now is not whether to plagiarize other people's poems, but which one is better.

Because of the words in the society of the Hereafter. The most famous poems like this "Yongyue" theme are "Water Tune Song Head" and "Silent Night Thoughts", which can even be read by a three-year-old child. In addition, due to its relatively long length, it is not as widely circulated as the first two "Spring River Flower Moonlight Night", which is basically the pinnacle representative of the entire "Yongyue" topic.

And since it is the pinnacle representative. It would be very difficult for Qin Yong to find one comparable to these three from the other remaining poems. But he can't find it! Because, since he is known as the "Yongyue Prince", then when it comes to the final poetry publicity stage, the poems about the proposition of "Yongyue" must have received a lot of attention.

After all. With the two pinnacle masterpieces of "Water Tune Song Head" and "Silent Night Thoughts" to demonstrate in front, most people who know his name will expect him, right? As for him, if he only wrote a poem of average quality, it would not match his name of "Yongyue Gongzi".

"Copy Wang Wei's "Mountain House Autumn Eyes"? The sentence 'The bright moon shines among the pines, and the clear spring stone is upstream' is quite beautiful, but it seems to be written more about the beautiful scenery of the mountain village in the evening after the autumn rain and early sunshine. It doesn't quite fit the proposition; Well, otherwise, copy Bai Juyi's "Twilight River Yin"? It's relevant, but the quality isn't ordinary......"

Qin Yong thought about it for a long time, from the Tang Dynasty to the Song Dynasty, and even the later Yuan, Ming, and Qing Dynasties, and the results appeared. It seems that he really can't find a better "Yongyue poem" than the three poems such as "Water Tune Song Head", "Silent Night Thoughts", and "Spring River Flower Moon Night", so he couldn't help but be dumbfounded in the end. It's not going to go on like this, that's right. This is already the last question in the entire entrance examination, that is, the last difficulty, if this difficulty, he must gnaw down no matter what, but in addition to coming up with a better quality of poetry than "Water Tune Song Head", "Silent Night Thoughts", and "Spring River Flower Moon Night", what other way is there to do? Qin Yong fell into deep thought for a while.

"Hey, by the way, "Drinking Alone Under the Moon"! "Drinking Alone Under the Moon" is okay! ”

Qin Yong pondered for a long time but there was no result, so it was when he was full of confusion, and as a result, when he thought of the name "Drinking Alone Under the Moon", he suddenly felt that his eyes lit up.

is not wrong, if you only talk about it from the perspective of quality, in fact, the quality of "Drinking Alone Under the Moon" is definitely not as high as the three poems of "Water Tune Song Head", "Silent Night Thoughts" and "Spring River Flower Moonlight Night". However, this "Drinking Alone Under the Moon" has another advantage, that is, it is not actually a poem, but four.

"Hehe, that's right, since you can't win by quality, it's okay to win by quantity!"

Qin Yong's wishful thinking is very loud, and the main basis is that there is no "deduction" for multiple answers in the examination room. It is even very likely that if he writes four poems in a row that match the theme, it will "add points".

Of course, this was just Qin Yong's own speculation. However, even if it is not a "plus" in the examiner's heart, but when the poems composed by the Jinshi are finally announced, he can be regarded as able to pay the difference, after all, if he makes four consecutive "Drinking Under the Moon" with the same title, even if it is not as good as the three poems such as "Water Tune Song Head" in terms of quality, it is enough to shock the world. Because this is absolutely the only one in the whole examination, who else but him will have the time and strength to give four different answers to a question in such a short period of time?

It's impossible! Even in the hearts of many candidates, if they had that time, it would be better to compose a poem better, which is better than having to think about it three more times, right? More importantly, it would be impossible for them to think of three more poems with the same title in a short period of time.

"One of them: a pot of wine among the flowers, drinking alone without a blind date. Raise a glass to invite Mingyue, and the shadow becomes a trio. The moon does not drink, and the shadow disciples follow me. Temporarily accompanied by the moon will be shadowed, and the joy must be spring. I sing and wander, and I dance in a mess. When they wake up, they mingle together, and when they get drunk, they disperse. Eternal knot ruthless travel, phase Miao Yunhan. ”

"Second: If the sky does not love wine, the wine star is not in the sky. If the earth does not love wine, there shall be no fountain of wine on the earth. Heaven and earth love wine, and love wine is worthy of heaven. I have heard that it is more than a saint, and it is as virtuous as a sage. Since the sages have already drunk, why bother to ask the gods. Three cups lead to the avenue, and one bucket is natural. But if you have fun in wine, don't pass it on to the awake. ”

"Third: Xianyang City in March, a thousand flowers are like brocade. Who can be alone in spring, and must drink about it. Poor and short, creation and long-cherished. A bottle of death and life together, everything is difficult to judge. When you are drunk, you lose the world, and you are lonely. I don't know if I have a body, this is the most fun. ”

"Fourth: Thousands of poor sorrows, 300 glasses of fine wine. Although there is too much sorrow and little wine, the wine does not come to me. Therefore, knowing the wine saint, the wine is hearty. Resignation Su Lying Yang, repeatedly empty and hungry. Contemporary people are not happy to drink, and they are useless. The crab claw is the gold liquid, and the bad mound is Penglai. And you must drink good wine and get drunk on the high platform by the moon. ”

The above four are the poems of the Tang Dynasty poet immortal Li Bai's "Drinking Alone Under the Moon", after Qin Yong carefully copied all these four poems onto the answer sheet, this one, after two days and one night of the examination, was finally completed.
