The original sentence is "clever words and morality, and small forbearance is chaotic and big", which is a classic saying that Confucius taught the world to know patience and know how to advance and retreat. This sentence actually contains two meanings: one is to warn everyone to be more patient and tolerant of everything, if you can't bear the small things, always act impulsively, and eventually the big things will be ruined;

Second, Confucius reminded the world that when doing things, we must make decisions on the spot, be ruthless, and not be kind to women, and keep entangled in small things, which will also damage big things.

Drawing famous sentences from the Four Books and Five Classics to do the examination questions is the most common way to ask questions in the imperial examination, which is why ancient candidates to prepare for the scientific examination, must read the Four Books and Five Classics, for them, those books of sages and sages are the syllabus of later generations and the so-called red treasure book.

Jiang Zhong knew very well in his heart that every candidate present knew the two meanings of this sentence, otherwise they would not have been able to stand out from the tens of millions of talents from various countries and come to the Holy Temple.

Jiang Zhong was silent for a long time, searched the ocean of memory, and found that there were countless articles on this topic after the Sui and Tang dynasties, some grasped the first meaning of the discussion, and some grasped the second problem analysis, each with its own wonderful theory.

Jiang Zhong thought about it for a long time, and finally set the goal on Su Shi, a scholar from the Song Dynasty University, familiarity is on the one hand, and on the other hand, Jiang Zhong knew very well in his heart that Su Shi was definitely a well-deserved academic bully in his time, and Ouyang Xiu, the leader of the literary world at that time, once applauded Su Shi's examination essays, and passed them on to his peers to read and appreciate for several days.

However, at the time, the most shocking thing was that Su Shi once made up an allusion in his article to testify his arguments, he wrote: "When Yao, Gao Tao is a soldier and will kill people." Gao Tao said to kill, three. Yao said Youzhi, three. "It is to the effect that when Emperor Yao ruled. Gao Tao is the judge. When discussing whether to kill those criminals, Gao Tao repeatedly insisted on killing, but Emperor Yao repeatedly insisted on not killing.

This allusion can be said to be a perfect testimony to his argument that "virtuous gentlemen are also unscrupulous", and it is also difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood when reading. Even when Mei Yaochen, the judge at the time, read this, he began to doubt life. As a generation of Confucians, his knowledge and knowledge are not as extensive as those of a young candidate, and this allusion must have come from some obscure ancient book. He hadn't read it himself.

However, he later intersected with Su Shi. When asked about this, Su Shi told him the truth: "I made it up myself based on Emperor Yao's personality." You can see each other, when Mei Yaochen heard this sentence at that time. The face is full of black lines.

In ancient times, the dictionaries were a very important part of the test-taking essays. Writing poems and essays can hide a dictionary in it, which not only makes the article more in-depth. It also seems that the writer is knowledgeable, but Su Shi didn't have a dictionary to use, so he made one himself.

Of course, this kind of thing is not unfamiliar to future generations of students, because students who have gone through the college entrance examination must know one of the major rules of writing essays - quoting famous quotes. The Chinese teacher repeatedly taught that no matter what type of essay you write, it is best to quote a few famous quotes in the text, and if you really can't think of any famous quotes, you can make up a few sentences yourself and then impose them on those celebrities.

As a result, a kind of "famous saying" in the college entrance examination essay spread among the majority of students, and there were many spoof sentences such as "Aristotle said that if a person is thirsty, he must drink water" and "Marx taught us to never forget a truth, you are 24 years old this year, you will be 25 next year" and other spoof sentences.

Jiang Zhong walked back to his senses, hurriedly returned to the exam, picked up the brush and wrote the question of the three words "Staying in the Marquis" on the answer sheet, and then broke the question at the beginning: "The so-called heroes of the ancients must have a festival of excellence." If there is a human affection that cannot be forgiven, the husband sees the humiliation, draws his sword and rises, and stands up to fight, which is not enough to be brave. There are great brave people in the world, who come suddenly without being surprised, and without being angry for no reason. The people he holds hostage are great, and his ambitions are ......far away."

This "Treatise on Staying in the Marquis" is one of the twenty-five "Treatises on Advancement" prepared by Su Shi for the examination that year, although it is about the merits of Zhang Liang, but it is not a general exposition, but extracts the argument that "Zhang Liang's success is because he can endure", this kind of formulation, no one has talked about it in the past, it is a great idea. And the opening sentence "Suddenly come without being surprised, and add without anger for no reason" has become a famous sentence that has been spread through the ages.

An essay of less than 800 words only took Jiang Zhong more than a moment, Jiang Zhong put aside the written policy paper, and then began to answer the poem question, compared to the policy theory, composing poetry is easier for Jiang Zhong, in fact, Jiang Zhong just saw the poem title, he already had a choice.

As the tip of the pen in Jiang Zhong's hand wandered, a side poem called "Plugged Up" was immediately released.

Jiang Zhong finished writing an article and a poem, and there was no fluctuation in the mood between the scenes, of course, taking the exam today, don't say that Jiang Zhong has no literary courage, even if he is still brave, when answering the paper, there will still be no literary temperament, because in the autumn competition, only Lu Mingbang can determine the strength of a candidate's literary temperament.

Jiang Zhong finished answering the test paper, and it took less than two moments before and after, while many other candidates have just broken the question now.

Jiang Zhong put the test paper on the table according to the regulations, and then raised his hand to signal the examiner to hand in the paper himself, and the five invigilators present naturally all knew Jiang Zhong who came with the book from the temple, but they were still skeptical that Jiang Zhong finished the exam paper in such a short time, but it was also according to the regulations, and after two minutes of the exam time, the candidates could hand in the papers.

The examiner nodded to Jiang Zhong and made a gesture that he could stand up, and Jiang Zhong stood up as carefully as he could, tiptoeing to not leave the examination room.

Even so, Jiang Zhong's departure from the examination room still alarmed many candidates in the examination room, especially Pan Qingzhou, Chen Jiexing, Liu Xiangchuan and the crane haired boy, although they have also been concentrating on reviewing the questions, but during the exam, they always subconsciously glanced at Jiang Zhong's side a few times, but when they looked at Jiang Zhong's seat again, it was empty.

Jiang Zhong was unable to leave the temple for the time being because he left the examination room early, so he was arranged to wait in a resting room in the temple, where there were melons, fruits, snacks, tea, and all kinds of scriptures and classics.

Since the shattering of the literary courage, Jiang Zhong has done a thorough combing and analysis of his various encounters in this otherworldly continent, and has a new understanding of the literary courage, martial spirit, and the vast poetry in his mind, so during the period when the literary courage disappeared, he has been cultivating Haoran Qi and strengthening the martial spirit in a down-to-earth manner.

Only by working hard to cultivate. Only those who have seriously comprehended can truly belong to themselves!

Jiang Zhong who has no literary courage. Although he could no longer use his powerful literary spirit to defeat the enemy as before, it made him settle down again and began to seriously study the true connotation of those classic poems, in the days when he taught Yun Feihuang to write poems. He himself is equivalent to re-reading and understanding the true meaning of those poems.

Once caught in the clear perception of the Lingtai, the concept of time loss ceases to exist. The feeling of space also disappeared from his mind, and when Jiang Zhong opened his eyes again, the resting room was already full of people. Yang Qice and Wei Shanchong were sitting next to him.

"The list will be held later. Yang Qice saw Jiang Zhong waking up from a fake sleep, and reminded in a low voice.

"Hmm. Jiang Zhong nodded.

The two were talking. A temple deacon entered the room and said, "Please go to the examination room and wait for the opening of the list." ”

The room suddenly became lively, and Jiang Zhong saw that all the candidates, including Yang Qice and Wei Shanchong, were nervous and excited with a face that could not be concealed.

Jiang Zhong and Yang Qice glanced at each other. Wei Shanxiong laughed at himself: "This kind of thing, no matter how many times you experience it. I'm afraid they'll all be nervous. ”

When the candidates came to the examination room again, they saw that the four worshippers in charge of the invigilation had sincerely bowed to the temple three times, and then everyone in the room heard two clear cries of "Yo Yo". A white deer appeared above the examination room with a literary list.

The students were in an uproar again.

At this time, someone shouted, "The examiner began to judge the papers", and everyone's eyes returned to the examination room again, and sure enough, they saw the examiner holding the seal, covering the examination papers of the candidates one by one.

Every candidate remembers their seat and their heartbeat accelerates violently when they see the examiner walking up to their seat.

However, there were more than a dozen test papers in front, and Bailu didn't say a word, and then someone fainted in the venue.

The noise has not yet risen, and suddenly everyone felt that there was a strong fluctuation of literary atmosphere on the field, and the literary atmosphere rushed up from Wenxi to the literary list, and then Bailu finally opened the golden mouth and shouted eight times in a row!

"Eight deer chirps!" exclaimed.

In the history of Qiubi, the record of the number of deer chirpings is fifteen, which was created by the head of the civil and military double department of the year who does not know people, and does not know the number of people, and the highest number of times is only eleven sounds, so this candidate's poems can lead to eight deer chirping, and the results are very good.

"Wei Shanchong, the deer roars eight times!"

Someone read it out loud, and Wei Shanchong, who was standing with Jiang Zhong, stroked his beard with a smile, looked at the deer list in the sky with great satisfaction, and said with a smile: "Content, content!"

Wei Shanchong studied hard for decades, and finally chose to awaken his courage on the day of Qiubi.

The examiner continued to judge the papers, and there were a few two or three voices in the back, and by the time Yang Qice arrived, the deer roared five times, and the results were medium and upper, and Yang Qice was already satisfied.

"The next one is Chen Jiexing. Yang Qice turned his head sideways and said to Jiang Zhong.

Jiang Zhong nodded slightly, he was also very curious about how many deer roars Chen Jiexing could have.

The examiner dropped the seal, and then a majestic breath erupted, overflowing with the seal, and then rushed to the sky, only to hear Bailu Youyou, and even shouted twelve times in a row!

"Chen Guo Chen picks the stars, and the deer chirps twelve!"

Hearing this, the audience was shocked, and then there was a burst of admiration, but Chen Jiexing couldn't see much joy on his face, because he was waiting for another person's results.

Because of Chen Jiexing's amazement, so that Liu Xiangchuan's ten deer chimes and Meng Cangli's nine tones failed to cause much shock, and it was not until the examiner came to Jiang Zhong's table that the scene was quiet again.

Jiang Zhong was the first to hand in the papers.

Jiang Zhong, a former literary genius.

Jiang Zhong who invites the moon with stars.

How many deer chirps can be elicited today.

On the gizz adjacent to the Confucius Temple, there was an old man with a long beard, who looked at the examination room with a blank face.

In a courtyard not far from the temple, Chen Tong stood with his hands in his hands, looking in the direction of the temple.

In the stone house of Jiang Guo, which is thousands of miles away from Lu State, Fang Xu everyone looked in the southeast direction.

The examiner seemed to be deliberately selling Guanzi, and deliberately waited for a while before holding Wen Xi in both hands and going down to the town.

Everyone's hearts were raised, but nothing rose.

"There's no civility. ”

"Sure enough, if you don't have the courage to write, can't you recognize Lu Mingbang?"

"No wonder I submitted the paper so long in advance, it turned out to be a waiver. ”

Chen Jiexing, who was standing not far from Jiang Zhong, also secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but at this moment, the Wen Bang suddenly trembled, and then without warning, a thick Wen Qi like the pillars of the palace hall descended, and that Wen Qi carried the sound of the Holy Dao, completely covering Jiang Zhong's test paper, and then an even more amazing scene occurred, the white deer raised his head to the sky and roared until the twenty-two sounds.

"Deer chirp—twenty-two!" The deacons who announced the announcement almost didn't come back to their senses. (To be continued.) )
