Chapter 276: Shame

Shao Zhiqiu thought that the literary exam would be like the top student in the imperial court.

But it's not.

When Chai Rong took Mr. Yang and Shao Zhiqiu to the place outside the ancestral hall where yesterday's martial arts competition took place.

At this point, the table had been set up there.

In the middle is an incense case, and on both sides are Shao Zhiqiu and Mr. Zhen.

"I wonder what books the general has read?" Mr. Zhen shook his fan while the old god asked.

Because she didn't know the depth of this Mr. Zhen, Shao Zhiqiu decided to keep a low profile.

"I have read the four books and five classics roughly, but I have studied the art of war in the history books a little, uh, I have also read some medical books and strange techniques in the past two years. As for the miscellaneous history on the side, I've also seen it, and I probably can't count it. ”

Shao Zhiqiu felt that she was already very low-key,

However, Mr. Zhen does not seem to think so.

From the time she roughly read the first sentence of the Four Books and Five Classics, Mr. Zhen's face was not as good-looking as a sentence.

Why?

What are the Four Books and the Five Classics?

"University", "The Mean", "Analects", "Mencius"! "Book of Songs", "Book of Rites", "Zhou Yi", "Spring and Autumn"!

How many contemporary Confucians will not say that they have read all the four books and five classics when they say this, but will use one or two of the ones they have studied in depth and are good at as a proxy for others.

But when he looked at Shao Zhiqiu, he clearly said, I've read it all...

Even he only dared to say that he had read every book, and he didn't dare to say how much of it could be understood.

If this is the case, Mr. Zhen may only think that she is a teenager and does not know the depths.

But she's not done yet!

The Art of War in the history books, I still study it, and I don't say which one I have studied specifically, don't you think you have read it all? Mr. Qi believes this, after all, Shao Zhiqiu broke the maze of the mechanism in the wood mound alone, but she actually compared the medical book with these, what does she mean that she will not be able to do medical skills?

And that's not all? Still a history of essays?

Mr. Zhen is angry!

This is simply too unbelievable!

No, he decided to use a heavy hammer to make a move, he had to suppress Shao Zhiqiu's arrogance and let her study hard and steadily!

Haven't you read all the four books and the five classics? Then start with the most unpopular I Ching.

Mr. Chu really didn't think that Shao Zhiqiu, a girl, would be interested in the I Ching.

"Then please tell the general what is the Tao of Yin and Yang?" Mr. Chu asked.

Shao Zhiqiu thought for a moment and replied.

"Yin and Yang are the Tao, out of the word Book of Changes, the word. One yin and one yang is the Tao, followed by goodness, and the nature of the achiever. The original meaning refers to the yin and yang of all things, complementing each other, and not being abandoned. ”

Mr. Chu was a little different, but he was not too surprised, after all, he could apply the mathematics of the mechanism, and there must be something outstanding.

"Does the general have his own opinions?"

"I don't dare to say my opinions, but I think that even if I am wary of the world, I understand the truth that things must be opposed, and at the same time, it is also a warning to us that everything cannot be discussed alone, and there must be things that are mutually reinforcing and mutually restrictive."

This made Mr. Chu's heart calmer, not that he thought what Shao Zhiqiu said was right, but he felt that at least Shao Zhiqiu had read it carefully and thought about it seriously.

So after a few more questions, he changed the question.

"How does the general think, there are good people above, and there must be bad people below."

"This statement comes from Mencius, and its intention is to warn those in high positions, be cautious in their words and deeds, and do not test human nature."

"Oh?" Shao Zhiqiu's opinion was somewhat interesting, and Mr. Chu was interested.

Seeing that Mr. Chu had questions, Shao Zhiqiu said.

"The way up and down, if you talk about people's hearts, you should be like fathers and sons, if you talk about people, you will do what you like. Therefore, those who are superior should conform to people's hearts and not go against human nature! ”

There are only two problems, and Mr. Chu's attitude towards Shao Zhiqiu has changed greatly.

Especially after Shao Zhiqiu said something that conforms to people's hearts and does not go against human nature, Mr. Chu's expression became much more serious.

"That's talking about good questions and good words!"

"The purpose of speaking in the middle is to teach the superior how to drive people into invisibility, which is not a good word."

Shao Zhiqiu said with some sarcasm, and then said.

"This place is harmonious with good governance, and the people who are not as good at teaching are also the same, perhaps the sages intended it well, but how many kings have been able to do it throughout the ages? It's just the wisdom of fooling the people, making it gratuitous. ”

Mr. Chu took a deep breath, he didn't expect Shao Zhiqiu to think about the problem so deeply.

Next, Mr. Chu's question became more and more acute, and Shao Zhiqiu's answer became more and more sharp.

In this way, you come and go, and I don't know when, the incense on the incense table in the middle is ignited.

One after the other, three bundles were burned.

The two of them have been facing each other since the end of the hour, and the unitary time has not ended, except for the water in the middle, they have not even eaten food.

If Chai Rong hadn't stopped it, he would still have no pause.

Mr. Chu looked at Shao Zhiqiu with a complicated expression, took a deep breath, left the table, contoured his face, and came to Shao Zhiqiu's table.

"The general is above, please forgive Chu Mingyu for his dereliction of duty."

Seeing this, Shao Zhiqiu hurriedly helped Mr. Chu, who was about to kneel, up.

"What do you mean, sir?"

"Chu is ashamed, with the talent of a general, the literary test has passed."

"That's a good thing! What do you have to be ashamed of! I thank you that it's too late! ”

"However, but the key, Chu did not carry the key."

Because he never thought that Shao Zhiqiu might have a literary exam today.

Shao Zhiqiu was slightly stunned, and then knew the secret.

But at this moment, she said as if she didn't know.

"What's that, as long as Mr. really thinks I'm over, it's not too late to give it to me tomorrow! I'm still a piece away from it, even if my husband brings it now, I can't get out of the valley right away, right? There is one more important thing to do now, and the key is not in a hurry. ”

"What's the matter?"

When Chu Mingyu heard that something was wrong, he hurriedly asked. Of course, he heard the comfort in Shao Zhiqiu's words, so he wanted to do something for Shao Zhiqiu.

"Big deal! Hungry! Shao Zhiqiu said very seriously.

If it weren't for the seriousness of the scene at this moment, the people present would be amused by Shao Zhiqiu's serious appearance of being hungry.

Immediately afterwards, Shao Zhiqiu said again.

"Then Mr. Component of the key, give it to me again tomorrow! Don't let this delay me from eating! Is the gentleman beaten with iron? Don't you know how hungry? ”

No one thought that Shao Zhiqiu's literary test would be even more amazing than the martial arts test.

The most important thing is that Shao Zhiqiu has disdain and disregard for imperial power in his bones, which Chai Rong and others never expected, after all, under etiquette, how can there be so many people who are born against their bones.

Shao Zhiqiu really ate a lot for dinner, which made Chu Mingyu even more embarrassed, so he didn't care about what Shao Zhiqiu said about tomorrow, so he hurriedly went to send the components of the key to Shao Zhiqiu.

This night, Shao Zhiqiu was still very calm.

But Chai Rong and the others were not calm.

They originally thought that Shao Zhiqiu would follow them to live in this valley for a few more years, and then be taught by them slowly, but as soon as today's day passed, everyone understood.

This is not something they can teach.

Even Mr. Chu is so arrogant, and now he has to admit that Shao Zhiqiu's erudition is not below him, and Shao Zhiqiu has another advantage, that is, Chu Mingyu does not understand the Great Zhou Dynasty at all, but Shao Zhiqiu knows very well.

So if you talk about it this way, do you want to give Mr. Chu to Shao Zhiqiu?

Fortunately, no one looked into the matter, so it didn't embarrass the two.

But the matter of the general leaving the valley in front of him was imminent, and everyone looked at Niu Fuji.
