Chapter 173: The Literati Are Light

Finally, it was the first day of the ninth month, which was the day of the state examination. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Early this morning, Lu Ming, accompanied by Lin Xiaoyan, came to the State Academy of Literature very early to line up.

After seeing Lu Ming, many scholars came forward to salute, even those who had never met before came to join in the fun.

Some people call it "Lu Maocai", some people call it "Lu Zhenguo", and some people call it "Lu Brother Tai".

Lu Ming bowed his hand slightly to everyone, and then lined up at the back of the line, whispering to Lin Xiaoyan.

At this time, a scholar said: "Lu Maocai is our Liang Guomaocai, how can he be last in line? ”

The others chimed in, and they were very enthusiastic.

Lu Ming looked calm and said to the man: "With my current literary name, I am indeed qualified to be in the front, but this will break the rules of the Literary Academy, if someone forcibly cuts the queue in the future, they will also take me as an example, I don't know who you are, so please don't talk to me." ”

The man's face changed, and he immediately smiled and said: "Lu Maocai, you have misunderstood me, I don't have the idea of ruining your literary name, you have won the hearts of the people in our Liang Kingdom, and you should have the privilege to enter the examination room first." ”

Lu Ming smiled slightly and said, "If I have privileges, then will the children of the family also have privileges in the future? If everyone can cut the line, wouldn't the order be completely chaotic?"

"Lu Maocai, the matter is not as serious as you think, and we are asking you to go to the front, not to cut the queue, why do you say so ugly. ”

Lu Ming immediately said: "Cutting in line is cutting in line, no matter how perfect an excuse is, it can't hide the essence of cutting in line." ”

The man had nothing to say, so he kept his mouth shut.

Many scholars from the family originally wanted to forcibly line up to the front, but when they saw Lu Ming like this, they had to dispel this idea.

Lin Xiaoyan glanced at the man and said, "That person obviously wants to ruin your literary name, it's best to ignore this kind of person in the future." ”

"I know, so I didn't let him get his way. ”

Lin Xiaoyan smiled again: "You must take the exam well, I will stew a bowl of chicken soup at home and wait for you to make up for your body." ”

Lu Ming suddenly became a little greedy, "Okay, I like chicken soup, remember to leave me a big chicken leg." ”

"Hmm. Lin Xiaoyan nodded.

Half an hour later, Lu Ming came to the door of the Academy, gave the exam voucher to the scribe for review, and then was searched before being allowed to enter the Academy.

Lu Ming turned around to say goodbye to Lin Xiaoyan, and then came to the Academy of Literature alone to rest and chat with his classmates.

When the hour came, Lu Ming entered the examination room and waited for the exam to start.

The prefectural exam takes four days, while the state exam has two more subjects, so one more day is added, which is five days.

During these five days, Lu Ming had to spend time in the examination room, and each student had a place and did not interfere with each other.

Compared with the provincial examination, the number of people admitted to the state examination is higher, reaching 120.

However, the competition is still very fierce, and if you are not careful, even if you are only a point apart, you may be trampled by the achievements of hundreds or thousands of people.

The name of the talented head is "Xie Yuan", this time, Lu Ming still aims to be the first and does his best to achieve good results.

In the state examination, Lu Ming is very satisfied as long as he can be named on the gold list, and as for whether he can become a state "Xie Yuan", it is not so important.

The important thing is that after the end of the imperial examination, scholars can enter the holy land through the holy temple, but the state examination is different from the government examination, the holy land that the government examination enters is the unattainable mountain of books, and the state examination goes to the vast and boundless sea of learning.

After Lu Ming's experience in Shushan, he successfully won a literary star for his own use, and he was even more looking forward to the rewards in the experience of learning the sea.

After a bell rang, a stack of test papers was handed out, and the first test was still a sticker, but unlike the government test, in addition to the Confucian classics, there were also classic content of the Taoist school.

And the two classics of "Lao Tzu" and "Zhuangzi", Lu Ming has memorized them with the ability to "be unforgettable", but the truth in it is like a book from heaven that makes people shy and difficult to understand, so Lu Ming does not have many knowledge points.

After all, these two classics are completely unannotated, in other words, a thousand readers will have a thousand ideas when they read it, and there will be no fixed ideas and answers at all.

"Dao" is very mysterious, the Taoist school of thought can enter the state to govern the country, retreat can be self-cultivation Qi family, but except for the "old sage" and "Zhuang sage", no one can really "get the Tao".

However, fortunately, pasting scriptures is equivalent to filling in the blanks, and there is no need to explain the meaning according to your own ideas, so it is not very difficult.

Although Taoism is the most difficult to practice, there are still many scholars who rush to it and praise it as a classic.

However, looking at the Sacred Forest Continent, except for the "Old Sage" and the "Zhuang Sage", no one can be canonized through "cultivation", and the person who currently stands at the highest position of the Taoist school is only one Taoist Confucian "Gu Tianyi".

As with the government examination, the first two sessions of the scriptures and essays are each tested for one day, and the third session of the policy is tested for two days.

The final question was on the same field as Moyi, and it was only one day of testing.

In the first posting session, Lu Ming's test was the most relaxed, and there were almost no mistakes or omissions.

As for the essays in the second scene, Lu Ming had chosen the subject as early as two days ago, and it could be summed up in just four words, and the literati were light.

It means that the scholars and the scholars despise each other, especially the children of the family, who feel superior in front of the children of the poor family.

Lu Ming unceremoniously criticized this common phenomenon, and used the "Analects" in the "Zi said: If you are a threesome, you must have my teacher; choose those who are good and follow them, and change those who are not good." As a basis.

After the article is written, there is an image of the town!

"The literati are very serious, this phenomenon is really not to be condoned, I hope the Holy Courtyard can pay attention to it!", Lu Ming thought in his heart.

In the third scene, Lu Ming's head grew again.

Because strategy is the most difficult topic in the imperial examination, this time, Lu Ming is no longer sure that he will write such a good article as last time.

"Do your best!"

After careful consideration, Lu Ming finally used "officialdom" as the theme, citing Guo Fenglin as an official who was unkind and framed himself, and wrote this strategy.

Guo Fenglin's matter is already known to the world, if an official frames a literate scholar, I don't know how much loss it will bring to the country, so this matter must be taken seriously by the imperial court, and officials cannot be appointed at will.

After the policy was written, the township of the town and country appeared again, which was far less than the article written during the government examination and spread to the world, but relatively speaking, the significance of this article is not small, and it is already a good work.
