Chapter 312: Township Exam 2

   Chapter 312 The Second Township Exam

Wen Yuanliang rolled his eyes in annoyance, "Come on! It's not the one who becomes suspicious after talking to women on weekdays! We are talking about the exam, you take the toilet number, and Zixi and Xue Zheng also sit near you, Even me is similar, only my second brother is sitting far away from the toilet number. If everyone is similar, I can find an explanation, but there is no second brother, just the four of us in Wenshan Academy! Don't you? Strange?"

   Feng Hongyu is not stupid, he guessed all the possibilities in a second, looked up at Wen Yuanliang, "What do you want to say?"

  Wen Yuanliang crossed Erlang's legs angrily, sitting or not, with a tooth-picking bamboo stick in his mouth, looking a bit like a hooligan.

   Feng Hongyu helplessly twitched the corners of his mouth, "What does it look like!"

Wen Yuanliang spit out the bamboo sticks, took a proper sitting posture, pressed his elbows to his thighs, supported his chin, and said thoughtfully, "I think we can verify it again in the second game. The seats will be changed, and if the four of us are still around there, then in all likelihood, we will be targeted, so I will send someone to check the details of the examiners this time."

   In a small place like them, it is impossible to say that they are from an ordinary small family to offend the Beijing officials. The only explanation is that they were targeted by the locals. Which force is it? How interesting!

Qi Zixi was speechless when he saw him, "Why don't you stop being so calm? What if one of the three of us takes a toilet in the second game? Always think of a way to deal with it! "

Wen Yuanliang shrugged, "What can I do about this kind of thing? But we can talk to the gentleman who came from the academy and ask him to inquire about one or two. If this is the case in the second game, let's see if he can think of a way to communicate with the examiner. ."

  The gentlemen of Wenshan Academy have more or less connections, otherwise the Academy would not let them take people to the provincial capital.

Wen Yuanhong listened silently for a long time, and suggested: "There seems to be a kind of sandalwood tablets sold in the grocery store that repels mosquitoes and odors. The incense tablets may not be brought into the examination room. There should be no problem with the incense powder. , prepare another bag for inspection at that time, do you think it works?"

Qi Zixi's eyes lit up, she stepped forward and hugged Wen Yuanhong and shouted excitedly: "My good brother-in-law, you are so smart! Just do as you said, this time I won't panic if I take the toilet number. "

   The next day, Qi Zixi really wanted to slap himself when he entered the examination room, and entered the toilet without tears.

Depressed, Qi Zixi looked a little listless, until he opened the test basket and saw the bag of incense powder, he tentatively poured out some and lit it. The number spread, perhaps because the latrine has not been used yet, Qi Zixi could not smell any odor, only this refreshing fragrance.

   The guy sitting next door suddenly said, "It seems! The toilet has changed its smell? No way!"

   Qi Zixi: "."

  The content of the second test is one of the Five Classics, and one test of the edict, the sentence, the table, and the letter. It requires more than 300 words. The content is much more flexible than the first test, and it also tests the candidates' writing skills and political opinions.

  The test papers were distributed, Qi Zixi even forgot about the toilet next to him, and concentrated on examining the questions.

  The first question It is said that the city is the city,) to the people of the world, gather the goods of the world, trade and retreat, and each gets what it means (see "Zhi Ni")."

   Question 2 "Water, Fire, Metal, Wood, Earth, and Valley Weixiu."

The third question "'Innately prosperous for the people, there are things in order. The people's morality is good, and it is good morality.' This is the saying that the rulers, ministers, fathers, sons, couples, elders, friends, and friends are nothing but things. There's nothing wrong with that.'"

   Question 4 "Distinguish the similarities and differences between "Mingtang", "Tai Temple", "Lingtai" and "Biyong". "

   Question 5 "Words are not words, actions are not far."

With the five questions, Qi Zixi gasped, not only him, but also the people next to him. There were rustling voices all around. Obviously, everyone was not calm. Thinking of this, Qi Zixi immediately calmed down. It's just that there is really no easy answer to these five questions. It takes three days to revise and copy the answer, which is definitely not enough.

The more he thought about it, the less he dared to be distracted. After thinking about it carefully, the first inscription was "Xi Xie Xie", which means that the market trade at noon, attracting people from all over the world, gathering goods from various places, exchanging items and leaving. Go, people get what they need. Regarding business, this is not difficult. Don't deviate from the meaning of the question and add your own opinions. It is enough to have something to say. It is not a problem for him to write 800 words.

The second question comes from "Shangshu Dayu Mo", this question is a little more difficult, meaning that water can irrigate, fire can cook, metal can cut, wood can prosper, soil can reproduce, and grain can nurture, these six things Known as the "six houses", it is used by nature to nurture all living beings, but the focus is on the word "only repair" at the back.

   The third question comes from "Book of Songs, Common People", meaning that these people are born in the old age, and they have shapes and rules. Human nature and birth, the pursuit of goodness and beauty is his virtue, and the second half is the center of prompting. With direction, answering questions is much easier.

   The fourth question needs to be answered in combination with the Book of Rites. The test is based on the accumulation of everyone's foundation.

The fifth question is excerpted from "Zuo Zhuan·Xiangong·Xiangong Twenty-five Years" meaning that the words have no literary grace and will not spread very far. On the surface, it is the importance of words, but the author of the question will never let them discuss such simple things. , must be combined with the way of monarchs and ministers, and it will cost lives.

Qi Zixi was so annoyed that he scratched his ears and cheeks. When Wen Yuanliang saw the topic, he just panicked briefly and calmed down. He remembered what Lao Jitou and Zhuo Bufan had taught before. If you don't understand everything, you must first think about the way of rulers and ministers, and the government. As well as the way of governance, all possible directions are set on those topics, and the thinking has gradually become clear.

The first question, the way of businessman, is not difficult for him. If he can't answer it, I am afraid that more than half of the people in the examination room will be here. The second question is "only cultivation". In nourishing the people,” the virtue of a sage is reflected in handling government affairs well, arranging “water, fire, metal, wood, soil, and grain” well, which is called “cultivation only”, and the people can be nourished well. From this point of view, it is definitely true. For the next three questions, as long as the remarks on the governance of the country by the ruler and the ministers in the "Book of Songs", "Book of Rites" and "Spring and Autumn Period" can be listed, they can be listed together, and then the language can be organized. Although the workload is huge, but This is clear and easy to make mistakes.
