Chapter 10 County Examination and Persuasion Poetry
On the third day after the township test, Zhang Yi went to the county literary institute to collect the seal. Yesterday he slipped away too fast and didn't have time to pick up the seal.
There is no such thing as a seal in the history of the Great Xia Dynasty. Even the master didn't think of this thing, and when Zhang Lin talked about it this morning, Zhang Yi's memory of Wenyin came out in his mind.
Wenyin is a thing developed by a genius of the Great Zhou Dynasty. The seal is square, just like the official seal handed down from the Great Xia Dynasty. However, as long as a wisp of tone is fed into the print, the print can be activated.
After the printing is activated, as long as you establish contact with other readers, you can consume a small amount of text and pass on messages. With the improvement of the scholar's academic rank, the printing will be upgraded with the blessing of the college.
Scholars with a bachelor's degree or above can automatically upgrade their own printing.
Zhang Yi felt that the text printing was too magical, this thing was used to transmit information, and the other party could receive it instantly. If it was the original Great Xia Dynasty, from the west to the east of the dynasty, it would have to run for a few years.
After entering the county academy, Zhang Yi received the document and seal, and left immediately. It's not that he doesn't understand etiquette and doesn't go to visit Yuanjun, but he will take the county exam tomorrow, and if he loses his tongue at this time, it will damage both Yuanjun and Zhang Yi's literary name.
Stepping out of the gate of the county academy, a scholar walked out of the door and stopped Zhang Yi.
"Brother Chen, is there something wrong?" Zhang Yi looked at Chen Liang who came in a hurry, a little curious.
Chen Liang handed a bookcase to Zhang Yi and said with a smile: "You are in too much of a hurry, the head of the township test case and the head of the county test case, the county academy will reward some things." In the bookcase there is a Tsing Yi children's uniform that I personally selected for you. ”
Zhang Yi hurriedly thanked him and took the bookcase. This is the reward of the township test, and he took it for granted, Chen Liang's last sentence showed that this dress was probably good, and it could be regarded as selling it to himself.
As a lifter, Chen Liang has no need to befriend Zhang Yi as a child. It's just a once-in-fifty-year child, and his future status will definitely not be under the lifter, so he can be regarded as a benefit.
"You don't need this dress either. Chen Liang continued to smile and said, "Ming'er, you will definitely be the head of high school again, and then I will help you choose a set of white clothes and Hanmei's talent suit." ”
"Borrow Brother Chen's auspicious words. ”
Zhang Yi thanked him again, and then left the county academy and returned to the broken house. The matter of taking the head of the county trial case is a matter that can be caught by him. What he wants to do most at the moment is to enter the Daoyi Academy to practice after being admitted to Xiucai.
Daoyi Academy must have some connection with the Holy Academy, and if he can find traces of the master or the brothers in it, it is very important for Zhang Yi.
Back at the dilapidated house, Zhang Yi immediately began to play with Wenyin. Zhang Lin stood aside, and when he saw Zhang Yi's curious expression, he couldn't help but smile. It's not easy for the young master to be able to laugh after such a big blow.
Zhang Yi quickly became familiar with the use of Wenyin and established a relationship with Zhang Lin, and if the two were not together in the future, they could instantly contact each other and know everything about each other.
※※※※※※※※※
On the third day after the county test in the township, Zhang Yi and Zhang Lin took out a brand-new Tsing Yi children's uniform and prepared to go to the county academy for the county test.
Tong Sheng, who already has a formal academic degree, is one level higher than ordinary people. Correspondingly, there are more rules for scholars, and they must wear corresponding attire on formal occasions.
The county exam is a very important event for any child, and today they must wear a blue children's uniform, otherwise they will not be able to enter the examination room.
After Zhang Yi put on the dress specially selected by Chen Liang, he found a difference. This children's uniform contains a small formation on it. This formation automatically absorbs a small amount of its own culture, and then produces a comfortable breeze, which makes people feel a hundred times more energetic.
This children's uniform is helpful in everyday life, and wouldn't it be even more beneficial if it was put in the exam. Zhang Yi took note of Chen Liang's kindness in his heart, quickly took off his clothes, and handed them to Zhang Lin's hand.
"Xiao Yi, who are you?" Zhang Lin was a little curious, how did Zhang Yi take away his children's clothes and hand him to himself.
Zhang Yi smiled and said: "This children's uniform is a little big, you are bigger than me, I will change it with you." ”
"Well, okay. Zhang Lin was not suspicious, and immediately began to change clothes.
Zhang Yi changed into Zhang Lin's Tsing Yi children's clothes and went with him to the County Academy.
Thousands of people gathered at the entrance of the county academy, and there were many more people who came to take the county exam today than on the day of the township exam. In the township examination three days ago, Longbow City did only admit one hundred and fifty people.
However, the ten inferior counties and three medium-sized counties under the jurisdiction of Longbow City are not eligible for the county test, and must gather in Longbow City for the county test. Together with the 150 students admitted to the Longbow Urban and Rural Examination, a total of 950 children are eligible to participate in the county examination.
Over the years, there are quite a few children who have not been admitted to Xiucai, so there is this scene.
Just like on the day of the township exam, Zhang Yi received his exam card, and after entering the room to worship incense and books, he entered the examination room where he was. Unlike that day, there were dozens of examiners in the entire county academy who were constantly patrolling to eliminate the possibility of any candidates cheating.
......
The county test is different from the township test, the township test is divided into two rounds, but the county test has only one round, and there are no questions, and the candidates are still free to play.
It is not that the county test is not as rigorous as the township test, but it has another deep meaning. The purpose of the county examination is to select Xiucai for the heavens, so whether it is poetry, strategy, or scripture, as long as you can absorb a lot of literary qi and help open the heart, you can be selected as Xiucai.
Of course, if during the exam, a child's writings are communicated with a large amount of literary atmosphere from the sky, and directly break the heart to ignite the heart, it is an ironclad talent from heaven. In the entire Great Zhou Dynasty, hundreds of countries, there have been no such characters for more than ten years.
After Zhang Yi set up the four treasures of the study, he did not choose to solve the problem immediately, the county test was very simple for him, he was thinking about how he should solve the problem most cleverly.
There are no questions in the county examination, and many candidates think that as long as their writings are brilliant, they can lower a lot of literary atmosphere and get the Xiucai literary position.
Zhang Yi found that there was a clue, and the township test was to distinguish between ordinary people and scholars. The county examination is the first step for scholars to move forward, and the direction of solving the problem should naturally be placed on reading.
"If you solve the problem and put it on persuading people to read, this problem should be solved. Zhang Yi was very sure of this result and began to prepare to solve the problem.
It took two quarters of an hour to grind the ink, and Zhang Yi took out an ordinary wolf pen. The dragon wolf pen is at least a humanistic treasure, Zhang Yi can't use it now; besides, in the Academy of Literature, the treasure can't play a role, Zhang Yi will not be stupid enough to take out the treasure to show off.
"There was an emperor named Heng in the Great Xia Dynasty, and he once wrote a poem on the theme of persuasion, if it is used here, it is definitely the best choice to solve the problem. It's just that the golden house can only be opened by Jinshi at least, and it is not suitable for Xiucai. ”
"In the millions of years of history of the Great Xia Dynasty, there are many great Confucians and even great sages who have written similar poems of persuasion. However, most of them were written to Tong Sheng Xiucai after they became great Confucians, and it is extremely inappropriate for me to imitate them at this moment. ”
Zhang Yi's mind was like turning a book, and he quickly turned over the story about persuasion.
"Well, there was a boy named Wang Sheng in the Holy Courtyard back then, who was about the same age as me now, and he wrote a poem of persuasion, which was very good, and I used it. However, if it is too long, it is a little inappropriate, so I will keep it short. ”
After thinking of a way to solve the problem, Zhang Yi observed the exam paper again. He learned from the memory of this body that the imperial examination began with the county examination, and the answers had to be gentle, otherwise the answers would be invalid.
Zhang Yi picked up the pen and wrote the word "Yi" on the exam paper at random, and the ink on the exam paper disappeared in an instant.
"Sure enough, the imperial examination needs to be supported by enough culture. Tong Sheng refines his literary qi, and he only became a child three days ago, and he does not have much literary energy in his body, so it is no wonder that some children did not come to take the exam today. ”
Thinking about this, Zhang Yi began to officially solve the question, and the literary qi in his body invaded the exam paper along the wolf's pen, and wrote the word "Son of Heaven".
A strange feeling instantly emerged, and Zhang Yi felt that the Wen Qi in his body was quickly withdrawn. At least one-fifth of the accumulated Wen Qi in the body disappeared with these two words.
Zhang Yi did not panic and was confident. The Son of Heaven, also known as the Son of the Emperor of Heaven, was the only one who could claim to be the Son of Heaven in the Great Xia Dynasty. Even if it is a great sage and a great Confucian, he is not qualified. In this era, only the masters of the three major dynasties can claim to be the Son of Heaven.
The lord of a country like Fuliu is at most called the emperor or His Majesty, if he dares to call himself the Son of Heaven. Heavenly Dao will be punished in a moment, and the body will die.
Therefore, the appearance of the word Son of Heaven in Zhang Yi's article instantly stimulated the sense of touch of Heaven and absorbed a large amount of Zhang Yi's literary atmosphere.
Zhang Yi calmed down and wrote the next verses seriously.
"The Son of Heaven is heroic, and the article teaches Ercao; everything is inferior, but only reading is high. ”
The first line of the poem has just been written, and the literary atmosphere in Zhang Yi's body has been reduced by two-fifths. You must know that he has now opened his heart to ignite the fire in his heart, and the literary energy in his body is no less than that of a new talent, and a poem consumes such a huge amount of literary energy, which shows that this poem is indeed as he thinks and is recognized by God.
Zhang Yi had no distractions, and a strange wind was already blowing in the entire examination room of the county academy.
In the main room of the Academy of Literature, Yang Dong, the monarch of the Academy, and several other examiners were talking about things. Suddenly, I saw the paper flying in the room and the bamboo slips standing up, and all the examiners were stunned.
"Paper scrolls dancing together, which candidate is this, it caused such a vision. An elderly examiner asked in horror.
Chen Liang stood aside, remembered a certain young man, and responded: "Fan Xuezheng, presumably in addition to Feng Qiao's second talent, it is the boy who fell from the sky." ”
The old examiner was the Xue Zheng of Longbow City, whose status was only slightly lower than that of the county magistrate, and he was responsible for managing all the county-level academies except for the Bun Academy.
Hearing this, Fan Xuezheng said in a low voice: "Feng Chonglou and Qiao Juzheng are indeed talented, but this kind of vision of paper scrolls dancing together is extremely rare, and it is necessary for readers to write poems of persuasion." Feng Qiao's two talented people's temperament is one out of the middle and the other is upright, and persuading them to learn poetry is not like what they can write. ”
When Chen Liang heard Fan Xuezheng say this, he was overjoyed in his heart, and said with a smile: "That must be the boy who fell from the sky." ”
Fan Xuezheng shook his head and said: "It's a pity that on the day of the township test, I went to Quxian County on business, and I didn't have time to see the demeanor of this boy from heaven. ”
Yang Dong, the first to discover the "paper scroll dance", saw all the examiners participating in the discussion at this moment, and said with a smile: "At the moment, we can't be sure which candidate is so talented, it's not good for us to chew our tongues behind our backs." ”
Fan Xuezheng nodded and said, "Don't blame Lord Yuanjun, the old man just hopes that Longbow City can have another talent from the sky." ”
All the examiners laughed in unison, they all had this expectation-
