Chunwei's examination room is a row of small black rooms, called "House". After the students enter, the trumpeter in charge of supervision will padlock the door, leaving only a small window for delivering the test papers.
Throughout the whole day, the students ate, drank and slacked in the small black room.
The candlelight was like beans, and the small room was dyed a dim yellow. Xu Erlang sat at the desk, playing with the inkstone, pouring clear water, and slowly grinding it.
There is still a long time before the exam starts, and this time is enough for him to calm down and think about something.
?Since ancient times, the imperial examinations have emphasized classics and righteousness, and despised poetry and prose. In addition, the Dafeng poetry circle has been weakened for a long time, so this will be the last test. For most students, it is just a formality.
When he was admitted to the hospital just now, the students who were acquainted with each other talked and laughed, feeling at ease. Unlike the previous two games, his face was serious and his mentality was tense, as if he was about to put on armor to go into battle.
However, others can relax, Xu Erlang knows that he cannot be negligent.
He is a student of Yunlu Academy. According to the attitude of the princes of the court towards the students of Yunlu Academy, after being awarded a Jinshi, he will either be dispatched to a remote village, or he will not be given an official status and will be hidden away.
Xu Erlang has his own ambitions. He neither wants to be dispatched to a remote village, nor does he want to stay in Beijing.
"The road ahead is long" Xu Xinian sighed.
At this time, the trumpeter outside the door knocked on the small window, and said in a low voice, "Master, the paper is here."
All those who participated in Chunwei were Juren, and Juren was qualified to be an official. The big soldiers all directly called the students in the examination room "Master".
Xu New Year took the paper and spread it out on the table. At this time, the sky was already bright, but the sun had not yet risen.
Borrowing the orange candlelight, Xu Nian took a closer look. The title was a sentence from "Cheng Zi Gange": "Three armies can win a commander, but a man can't lose his ambition."
Xu Erlang, who has read a lot of poetry and books, instantly extracted the core: Yong Zhi!
He stared at the examination paper with an uncontrollably dull expression, and disbelief in his eyes.
"Brother must have stepped on dog poop before entering my house that day?" Xu Erlang murmured.
Can this also be guessed by him?
When it came to drawing lots that day, Xu Erlang had the right to deal with the annoying elder brother. Although the questions in the Chunwei exam could be guessed, they were limited to the classics and theories, after all, there are traces to follow.
The title of the poem depends entirely on the mood of the examiner, and you can come up with whatever you think of, even if it is named after the wild flowers on the roadside, it is possible.
Can you guess all this? !
Unless the eldest brother stepped on dog shit that night, Xu Erlang really couldn't think of any other possibility.
?Wait a minuteXu New Year's expressions of shock, confusion, bewilderment, etc., were all transformed into ecstasy and excitement.
Big brother guessed right, big brother guessed right!
He suddenly straightened his back, and couldn't help but want to let out three long howls to express his inner excitement at the moment.
"With my eldest brother's poetic talent, since he guessed the test questions correctly, I, Xu Erlang, will be honored in the third round of the poem. I, I may be able to compete for the prize."
The winner of the trial will be named "Gongshi", and the first name of the Gongshi is "Huiyuan".
It is reasonable for him to think so. First of all, he will try to obscure his name. His identity as a student of Yunlu Academy will not be exposed, so he will not be excluded. Secondly, Xu New Year is a natural seed for reading, the favorite student of the great Confucian Zhang Shen, coupled with the bonuses of the Confucian system, such as a photographic memory and a clear mind, his own level is far superior to the students of the Imperial Academy.
Finally, in order to prevent fraud in the imperial examination, Dafeng arranged three chief examiners, many of whom took the same exam. The composition here is complicated, and the three chief examiners must come from different parties.
Maybe they are also hostile to each other.
Even if someone can bribe one examiner, it is impossible to bribe the other two.
Therefore, in each session of the general examination, there will be a battle among the examiners, and then they will discuss and compromise with each other to make the final decision.
"Heaven is not born, I promise a new year, and I will try forever like a long night."
Even though he is as proud as the New Year, there is no one in the room at the moment, he can't control his emotions at all, he dances and laughs like a fool.
If there is a bed, he will roll in it, or writhe like a maggot.
"Brother is really my lucky star! Calm down, calm down, what is the poem about Yongzhi that elder brother gave me"
Xu New Year settled down and forced himself to calm down.
Fortunately, he, who is at the eighth level of Confucianism, has long been able to remember with his photographic memory, and the poems given by his elder brother are really good, his memory is quite deep, and he recalled it quickly.
Picking up the pen and dipping in the ink, and unfolding the draft paper, he realized that his hands were still trembling slightly.
"I'm not promising, but I just know how to try, and I'm so excitedHe moved and said: "I dare to conclude that once this poem is published, it will be famous all over the world. It will be tested this year, and it will be recorded by the historian."
An examiner next to him glanced at him, walked over curiously, picked up the paper, and took a closer look.
Madness seems to be contagious. The examiner held the paper and trembled with excitement: "Good poems, good poems, hahaha, who said that Dafeng scholars can't write good poems?"
At this moment, the rest of the examiners realized that there was a good work coming out, and they swarmed up, passed on and read each other.
"A good poem should come to light."
"There will be times when the wind and the waves break, hang the clouds and sail straight to the sea This is the poem that scholars should write."
"How can a student write this vicissitudes of life poem?"
"Maybe it's because I failed the exams repeatedly, so I will write my aspirations with poetry."
The appearance of this song "Difficult to Travel" is like a group of local chickens mixed with golden phoenixes. It is extremely precious, and the reviewers in the room kept passing it around and commenting excitedly.
"Ahem!"
There was a strong coughing sound outside the door, and the gray-haired Grand Master Dongge stood at the door with his hands behind his back.
He was attracted by the noise.
The examiners in the room fell silent for a moment.
"How decent is it to make a lot of noise?"
University scholar Zhao Tingfang reprimanded a few words, and then asked: "I just heard someone say that once this poem is published, it will be famous all over the world?"
Immediately, an examiner stepped forward and respectfully handed over the paper.
? The Grand Master Dongge glanced at everyone before taking the paper, squinting his eyes and looking at it His hand holding the paper trembled slightly.
Anyone can see that this is a good poem, a good and uplifting poem.
But the experience is different, and the feelings are also different.
This poem is not only a chanting, but also a rough life experience. From "difficult to walk in a daze" to "there will be times when the wind and the waves break, hang the clouds and sails to help the sea", anyone who has a similar experience can quickly empathize.
And the last sentence is Yongzhi, which is also the finishing touch, directly raising the artistic conception of the whole poem to a very high level.
"This guy is absolutely talented. If the scriptures and policy questions are both excellent, I will definitely choose him as Huiyuan!" Dongge University scholar said in his heart
The day after the end of the Spring Festival, Xu Xinnian found that his treatment at home had plummeted. In the past, every morning, his mother would let the kitchen heat up a bowl of hot milk.
At noon it is rich chicken soup and at night it is ginseng soup.
During the period, Niang would also ask for care, although there was no real performance, but she also showed enough attention.
And father and elder brother would also ask a few questions at the dinner table, younger sister Xu Lingyue would do the same, and even younger sister Xu Lingyin would occasionally shout: Second brother, you must work hard!
But since the last game ended, the milk was gone, the chicken soup was gone, and the ginseng was gone. After asking when the rankings would be released, everyone paid less attention.
At the dining table, Xu Qi'an asked: "Why is Erlang in a bad mood? Did he fail the last exam?"
Xu Erlang didn't speak. After dinner, he dragged his eldest brother into the study, staring at him straightly: "Brotheryou guessed the right question."
Regarding this result, Xu Qi'an was neither surprised nor surprised, nodded and asked: "Aiguo or Yongzhi?"
"Yong Zhi!"
Xu Nian asked for advice: "Where are the Yellow River and Taihang? When I was free to fish on the Bixi River, I suddenly went on a boat and dreamed of the sun. What allusion did it come from?"
Um? Is there an allusion to this sentence? I don't remember. Xu Qi'an was dumbfounded.
"The reason why I come to fish in Bixi in my spare time is because I like fishing. Suddenly, I dreamed of going on a boat, yes, yes oh why are you talking so much nonsense? I finished the exams and are still here Beep.
"Hurry up and tear up the Four Books and Five Classics. Brother will take you to the Jiaofang Division to play tomorrow."
Xu Qi'an ran away cursing.
Returning to the room, he found Zhong Li sitting on the edge of the bed bandaging his head, faintly dripping with blood.
"Did you fall again?"
"Um."
Zhong Li nodded aggrievedly, and said, "I found that your sister's life is very hard."
"Which sister?" Xu Qi'an asked
ps: I got into an argument with myself today. I searched for relevant information for two hours in order to find out who the chief examiners were in history and what their official positions were. I found that there is only a rough division of official positions on the Internet, which is not accurate.
I wanted to go to the library, but the library was closed again, which pissed me off.
Although you can make it up casually, it still needs to be more rigorous. I am a person who is afraid of being raised.
