Xie Qian glanced at Xu Qian with disdain, and said, "You don't want to use these words to provoke the old man's ......" His face softened: "Then Mr. Wu does have some ability, otherwise his disciples would not be so handsome." It's a pity that if you let the old man guide you for three or two years, it may not be difficult to catch up with this Yang Tong, but now you want to compete with Yang Tong after only two months of hard work, but it is not a good time. Your foundation is solid, thick and thin, in fact, it is no worse than that Yang Tongzhi, what is lacking is skills and perception, and besides, whether the article is good or not is what the examiner said, the variables in this are extremely large, and you are not completely without a chance of winning. ”

This is a temporary cramming, Xu Qian naturally can't ask for it, he hates that Mr. Wu, and will never let Mr. Wu's disciples press him, at this time, the blood in his body is boiling, and he said with great interest: "This is very good, then please ask the teacher for advice." ”

Xie Qian smiled at him, beckoned, and said: "Actually, it's easy to teach you, the old man has twenty articles here, all of which are idle works, you start from now on, experience it with your heart, see if there are any things that can be changed in this article, find out the advantages and mistakes in the article, and pick up the omissions." ”

Xie Qian took out more than a dozen articles from the bookshelf after a moment's effort, then ignored Xu Qian, and went to get a copy of the Warring States Policy to read, Xu Qian thought that Xie Qian would teach him any skills, who knew that it was actually a missing supplement, and there was a big gap in his heart, but he could only read it hard.

He picked up the first article first, and carefully studied it, this article can only be described as amazing at first glance, whether it is a problem, a topic, or a couplet and semantics, it is perfect. Xu Qian couldn't help but say to Xie Qian: "Teacher, I really can't find anything wrong with this article. ”

Xie Qian was still holding the book, his eyes did not leave the book, but he said in a flat tone: "Then read it a few more times." ”

Xu Qian suddenly had goosebumps all over his body, so he had to follow his words and read it several times in a row, but he still couldn't find the slightest mistake or omission.

Unconsciously, Xie Qian suddenly glanced sideways at him: "What?" Haven't found it yet? ”

Xu Qian smiled bitterly: "The students are stupid. ”

Xie Qian said: "Then continue to read the second article and read it a few times by heart." ”

Xu Qian picked up the second article according to his words, and read it carefully, obviously this second article was better than the previous one, he read a few articles repeatedly, and couldn't help but praise: "Such an article is really amazing." ”

Xie Qian sneered at him: "Then think about the first article you just read, think about what is missing in the first article?" ”

A sentence woke up the dreamer, if he didn't see the second article, Xu Qian couldn't find the fault of the first article anyway, before reading the current article, the first article was perfect in his eyes, but now, he found a lot of imperfections, he quickly picked up the first article again to read, and said: "Although the first article is ingenious, it is a little unfocused, and it is a little powerless at the end." ”

Now, Xu Qian finally understands what progress is, his foundation is solid, and there is no need for cramming education. The most important thing now is to improve your skills. To improve your skills, the first thing is to improve your level and appreciation, just like a person will feel precious when he sees a silver ingot, but when a mountain of gold and silver is placed in front of you, you will no longer be interested in this silver ingot. The same is true for the article, when you see a more amazing article, and then look at the work that was extremely perfect in your eyes before, you will feel that it is not worth mentioning, people have a vision, they can find the shortcomings in the article, and they can find the shortcomings to correct, otherwise they will never want to improve.

Xie Qian did not directly tell Xu Qian about his skills, but asked Xu Qian to discover it himself, he smiled slightly, showing a somewhat teachable expression, and then said with a straight face: "Then, you read one article after another, read the next one, and then go back to find the shortcomings in the previous articles, if you can find out the shortcomings of these articles, and then think about how to remedy them to make these articles more perfect." can do this, although there will be a slight gap between Yang Tongzhi and Yang Tongzhi in this hospital test, it will not be completely out of chance. ”

Xu Qian followed his words, collected all his thoughts, and threw all of them into these ten articles

In the article, sometimes he frowned, sometimes he couldn't help but applaud, sometimes his face was cold, and sometimes his eyes suddenly wandered, as if he was thinking about something. Even a few hours later, he had the audacity to take pen and ink to delete the few articles he had read before.

For three days in a row, Xu Qian spent time in this study, when he was hungry, someone would send him food, the food was very simple, there was no style of Xie Fu at all, nothing more than water and pastries, if he was tired, he would lie on the desk and sleep for a while, and the ten articles were changed by Xu Qian like a ghost drawing, and sometimes he felt dissatisfied and re-copied the original text and changed it again.

And Xie Qian only came a few times occasionally, read what Xu Qian had changed, didn't say good or bad, put these articles back in their places, and set up a chair to read his own book.

Three days passed in a flash, early in the morning, Xu Qian got up dizzy, looked at the ten articles scattered on the ground, like a dream, he mechanically wanted to continue to pick up the articles to ponder, at this time the door of the study was opened, and it was a girl who came in, this girl saluted Xu Qianfu, and said: "Xu Gongzi, today's college exam, the master ordered to come down, please bathe and change clothes, the carriage and horses and the desserts used in the exam, pen and ink have also been prepared, the time is cramped, and please do your best." ”

Xu Qian then woke up, today is the college exam, he patted his forehead, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "I almost forgot, I don't know where the teacher went?" ”

The girl said: "The master has already returned to Yuyao, saying that he is going to stay there for a few days, and when he leaves, he will ask the slave to tell Xu Gongzi some words." ”

Went to Yuyao?

Xu Qian's dark psychology couldn't help but attack again, when did the teacher not return to Yuyao, but what did he do in Yuyao at this time? This old guy seems to be hiding from debts, could it be that there is something inside here? He said angrily: "I don't know what you say? ”

"The master said, whether you can become the head of the case, with Xu Gongzi's wisdom, in fact, it is all in a thought, but sometimes, it may not be good to be ranked first, and it is not a good thing to be too sharp."

Xu Qian was suddenly full of anger in his stomach, and said: "He won the top prize and entered the cabinet, and now he is here to point fingers at my future. Seeing that this girl was at a loss, he was very frightened, so his tone softened and said, "That's it, since the teacher is gone, I won't complain about anything, I'll go to bathe and change clothes, please lead the way." ”

Xu Qian really needs to wash up, and after staying in this study for a few days, he already has a bad smell on his body, if he lets others know what he looks like in a dignified trial, he is afraid that he will laugh off his big teeth.

After bathing and changing clothes, a scholar from Xie Mansion brought Kaolan to go with Xu Qian, and the carriage had stopped at the door, although the carriage was not beautiful but exquisite, Xu Qian sat in comfortably, and suddenly had a little more longing for the life of this wealthy family, this is the real life, think about the days you lived before, it is really not as good as pigs and dogs, so ...... You must become a gifted person, and the next step is to become a lifter, to be a master in the future, and to enjoy the corrupt life of this feudal society.

After a while, I arrived at the examination institute, Hangzhou is the examination center of the township examination, and this time the college examination is also concentrated in the students from various counties to take the examination here, so the scale of this examination room is also very large.

Xu Qian sent the scholar away, and stepped forward alone with the test blue, but this time the exam was much stricter than before, the candidates lined up to enter, and after entering, they also needed a special search and copy, and there were teams of officers and soldiers to maintain the order, which was very solemn, and the strictness of the exam was revealed.

After checking that there was no entrainment, he still needed to wait in a shed, and was led to the examination shed by the official, there were more and more people in the shed, and someone recognized Xu Qian and couldn't help but say, "This is Xu Sheng?" Xu Qian's reputation has spread all over Zhejiang, although some people hate it, but some people have begun to get close, and many people have come to salute, this is the benefit of celebrities, Xu Qian's heart is fluttering, and Tuan Tuan is against them.

It's just that this pleasure didn't last long, and suddenly someone in the crowd said: "Young Master Yang has arrived......"

This shout was like thunder, and the people around Xu Qian rushed in the other direction like a flood.

Xu Qian was dumbfounded, and couldn't help but scold in his heart: "There is really no good thing among scholars, they are all a group of people who see the wind and steer the rudder." He thought for a moment, and then added fiercely in his heart: "Except for me." ”
