Transmigrating To The Ming Dynastys Imperial Examination - Chapter 265
In August, Li Zhaoxian took the Examination for Enrollment.
After the three exams, he first thanked the court for caring for the students, and repaired the Gongyuan in such a quiet and neat manner: “The examination shed of the Gongyuan is well repaired. Sitting in the examination shed has good light and does not feel the heat. The smell is good, no Like the Cuis examination institute, a latrine was built next to the examination shed, and the people coming and going dont know how many times they would disturb people.”
The weather in this department was in good time. Only in the second game, there was a slight rain. During the exam, I used a tarp on the ceiling and in front of the door, and even a little rain did not splash on the paper.
When he was doing mock exams in the Cui family, the steward of the Xie family and the two uncle Zhang Guo both came to help him, and caused him such an accident in the examination room: the smooth surface was soaked and stained with ink and the paper was scrapped. It has been made several times; rain, examiners’ patrols, and thunder and lightning are even more common; the two uncles also bought a special smoking incense burner for the stage, and simulated a fire in the examination room, forcing him to escape from the examination room urgently
Had it not been for his insistence on exercising over the years, with sharp legs and feet, and turning up the wall at a critical moment, he would really be scared to death by the sudden emergence of cigarettes.
After these days of torture, before entering the examination room, Li Caizi was already as old as an ancient well, and he was able to face the blow of failing the exam indifferently.
After changing to an examination room with excellent conditions like Gongyuan, he was like a dragon returning to the sea, and Ven Si spewed out. The opening seven Scriptures were written in a relaxed style, with a high artistic conception. The four sentences closely follow the criminal law, the two chapters are quick and elegant, and the five questions are eloquent and elegant.
He went home and wrote an article silently and showed it to his father. Li Dongyang heaved a sigh of relief: “My son is so gloomy. The only thing I have to worry about is that I can’t fully display it in the court. If I can write this way, one move has already fallen. In the bag.”
He has always shown off his son, taking these articles to various ministries and academies, proudly complimenting his prodigy, and showing off his disciples’ mock test. Back then, Cui Xie relied on the pre-exam simulation to get Juren and Jinshi. Later, his two younger brothers entered Pan at the same year. Now he has trained his son Zhaoxian into Juzi.
The mock test is indeed a good method. This group of students have high and low aptitudes. They worked hard for a year and a half before the test. Didn’t all of them achieve results?
Wang Zhuangyuan also agreed with him and advised his children to take the mock test: “My family Shouren went to the Cui family to take the test several times. After returning, he also said that this practice method is very different from usual writing, and he can sharpen his thinking. A little bit faster than before.”
Wang Shouren’s psychological quality is much stronger than Li Zhaoxian, and he doesn’t take the interference in the examination room seriously. The biggest improvement in the mock test is to write several articles in one day, and he has developed the ability to quickly write articles.
On the ninth day of February of the next year, he was full of essays and a calm mood. He came to the outside of the Gongyuan with the talented people he had known, such as Li Zhaoxian, and saw Zhu Juren who had gone to Beijing for the exam. Several people smiled at each other outside the dragon gate, wishing each other a test in the same subject, and then all undressed and exposed under the cries of the left guards of the Jinwu Army, carrying clothes and socks in the cold wind and being searched.
Zhu Juren’s glasses were not considered contraband, and they were brought into the examination room. With these glasses, he can see the text on the whole scroll at a glance, without having to stick the paper in front of his eyes, and his eyes are not tired when he reads and writes, and the writing becomes smoother. And after the torture of the “Young Jinyiwei”, he really understood how to figure out the minds of the people, and what he wrote was no longer an article showing off talent, but a text that was more suitable for the examination.
The current examiners are Xie Qian and Wang Huan, two famous stereotypes. The two articles Zhu Zhishan have read and can be recited. They also bought Xie Qians “Imperial Examination Must-Read Notes Series: Hanlin Master Xie Xueshi Lectures on the University” and Wang Huas “Art Articles Masters Explaining and Practicing”. The test literally crashed into his hands, and there was no more bad writing!
The 9th year of Hongzhi’s test was actually the time when talented scholars competed for the best.
Wang Shouren, Li Zhaoxian, and other well-known children of officials in Beijing are all listed on this list, and Zhu Zhishan and Gu Lin, who were selected when Wang Hua was an examiner in Wuzhong, are also on the list. In addition, in Shaanxi and Shandong, there are two talents who can suppress a generation of essays and poems at the same time-it is Bian Gong and Wang Jiusi among the top seven.
On March 15th, Jindian asked the question. Wang Shouren did not expect his father’s elders to expect him. He took the top name of Jinke. Li Zhaoxian and Zhu Zhishan were also in the top two, and Wang Jiusi chose Shujishi together. Li Mengyang, who was the first to join the dynasty, finally made like-minded friends. A group of new talents gathered in the Li Dongyang Chaling School to sing poems.
But these young people didn’t know that there were actually two people who were deliberately impure, who were evaluating and examining them with the eyes of an editor…
Only one copy of “Young Jinyiwei” by the two uncles has been published, and they are waiting for someone to write a manuscript.
The editors of Zhu and Wang have a deep cultivation of qi. They are not eager to draw people to write manuscripts when they see a talented person, but first silently observe each other’s style and temperament in ordinary poetry.
Its not enough if you postpone it for dozens of days without giving it away!
When I was writing a poem, I cut off my thoughts when I was surprised, I couldn’t write the following sentences, and I couldn’t give the poem to others to continue writing!
When you write a good poem halfway, you just put it aside, and it wont work anymore!
It is more selfish to write people’s questions, and you can’t write according to the truth!
If you are too aggressive to be able to revise the manuscript according to the author’s request!
…
The geniuses of the Manchuria asked them to be picky many times, and the most qualified to be a good author was Li Dongyang. Wang Shouren silently erased the old patron who was writing the main story of Jin Yiwei from his heart, and comforted Zhu Zhishan: “Anyway, the uncles of the country will not have a big case, we are not in a hurry to choose people.”
Zhu Zhishan nodded silently and agreed to observe more.
After he was admitted to the Jinshi, he had enough time to write a manuscript. It stands to reason that the Zhang brothers had to give him many cases to write. But since the end of his palace exam, Zhang Heling brothers also called people to congratulate him a few times and sent a lot of things, but in total they only sent a case of Chen Yun’s dereliction of duty, which he could write alone.
He also developed a good friend Tang Bohu in his hometown two years ago, and three years later he will also go to Beijing to rush for the exam. With this momentum, they really don’t want to rush to pick the author.
Both of them felt that the Zhang brothers had grown up and were not so eager to seek a name for the camp, but they didn’t know that their brothers didn’t press for drafts because they had done fewer big cases.
Since they have tasted the sweetness from Li Guang, they have become a bit of a traitor who caught bribes. The brothers were too diligent in fishing law enforcement, and their fame was beyond the reach of the two supernumerary historians. The officials inside and outside the imperial court met with them, and they all hurriedly put on a strong character that was not afraid of power and inviting, and refused to take the bait.
The two of them didnt catch any big case comparable to Li Guangs case. They wanted to turn the small case into a picture book. They thought that these trivial matters had lowered their reputations. There is only one case of Chen Yun worthy of being written.
Fortunately, they now have something more important, and they can’t worry about worrying about “Young Jinyiwei”
The prince was crowned.
The prince is coming out of the cabinet.
The crown prince Zhu Houzhao officially gave the crown ceremony after the examination. From then on, when the memorials of the world’s divisions are submitted, they will be added in the East Palace. Although the power of the memorial in the East Palace is just a decoration, since the prince wants to start observing politics, he has to select old and talented officials with good moral character to serve as the counselor and serve the prince.
The prince is going to study, can the two uncles not be nervous?
The two of them still kept in mind that their father and teacher were drunk that day, and said that they wanted them to be the role models for the prince, and that they would be forced to learn the Four Books and Five Classics from scratch!
At that time, because of their brothers being alert, they swore that they would give the prince a test paper and guide the prince to learn, and the two people escaped the people. Now that the prince has grown up and wants to study, if they cant live up to the words of the day, be a good uncle who can lead the prince to study…
Mr. Cui will return to Beijing next autumn!
The two people thought of Cui Xie’s martial arts and the endless Wenshan Tihai, shivering secretly, turned and looked towards the imperial palace, looking towards the hidden Qingning Palace in the towering palace.
They have to be a pair of Master Yan, Uncle Yan, and then they have to blame the prince.
From then on, they entered the palace, no longer gave the prince the fresh food and toys outside the palace, no more Jinyiwei comics, only brought in the two brothers to measure the princes academic progress, and give him examination questions.
What to choose to fill in the blanks, what to judge right and wrong, what to read the scriptures, what to read in short essays… How did Teacher Cui test them in the past, they used it to deal with the nephew, and forced the little prince to close the paper to answer the questions, and the prince was taken aback. For a moment.
The uncles have changed!
The uncles were so merciless and cruel, forcing him to be more ruthless than the old gentlemen in the East Palace!
The gentlemen of the East Palace also gave him pictures with words to teach him to read. This is full of words. He still doesn’t recognize it! Some words can’t be written yet!
Zhu Houzhao asked them to do a few papers forcibly, and they all had a headache. At the beginning, he did it well, but then the more and more papers he did, he was so annoyed that he made mistakes on purpose.
The two national uncles were also from cubs to adults. Knowing what he was thinking, they slapped him cruelly. After correcting the paper, he asked him to rewrite the wrong one ten times against the answer.
After all, the little prince was too young to overwhelm them, and he didn’t dare not write. Even after the uncles left at night, they still cried and copied the paper honestly.
Mrs. Wei Sheng, the nanny who brought up the prince, wiped his tears, and said distressedly: “You can go to the emperor and the empress for help, and ask the uncle Guo to reduce your reading and writing a few times.”
The **** Tan Ji who served him also sighed: “The young master is still young, so he can read the pictures on the outside on weekdays, and listen to the old slave’s filial piety scriptures. No matter where he can bear to copy such a large manuscript. ?”
The prince dropped his pen, crying and went to the queen to complain.
The uncle of the country deceives the gu, the uncle of the country forces the lonely study and writing!
This case is reported to the queen first. Empress Zhang was not partial to her son. Looking at the neatly copied and well-written papers, she felt that her brother was commendable for her loyalty, and she was praiseworthy for her dedication to the Prince’s study.
Not only did the queen ignore her, she also asked people to reward the uncle of the country, boasting that they had a good topic. The prince was so angry that he ran to the Palace of Wenhua to see the emperor, and asked the father to be the master, and the uncle was not allowed to enter the palace again… Forget it, they were not allowed to write questions for themselves.
The emperor read the test papers issued by his brother-in-law, and felt like the queen did it well. He was reluctant to ask them to change it. He only comforted the prince with a gentle voice: “I said to the uncles, telling them not to force you to rewrite them Thats the typo. Its not difficult to produce this paper. Its just that if you learn less, its hard to do it. Back then, the topics that the emperor did were all produced by Guozijian and Hanlin, many times more than yours. When you grow up, get used to it.”
Zhu Houzhao is keenly aware that there is a deeper and bigger shadow hidden in this comfort of his father.
Gentlemen will give him questions in the future! He will publish more than these articles!
Impossible. The gentlemen of Mingming only showed him beautifully drawn pictures with only a few large characters written on them. When the bookkeeper taught him to write, he did not force him…
The crown prince did not give up. When he was studying the next day, he took the papers produced by the Zhang brothers and showed them to Fei Hong, Jin Gui and others who served the book, and quietly complained: “The uncle Guo forced Gu to make so many papers and forced Gu to copy wrong characters. My fingers hurt.”
Fei Hong used to accompany the Prince to take the exam back then. He made it out of the sea of questions. When he saw the paper, he smiled nostalgic and said: “The ability of the two uncles to write the paper is really compatible with… Well, the uncles of the country are truly loyal to the prince, and for the sake of the jijiangshan of the Daming Society, they try their best to persuade the prince to study. Those who try to induce the prince to play absurd games are the villains.”
These school books and orthographers are also good-tempered young people, who persuade others to be gentle; the stern veteran like Wang Huan, who is the official official, knows it, and on the contrary, he told the prince the truth about commuting and learning.
The crown prince didn’t understand so many principles, but knew that his homework had been increased, and the uncles could rush into the palace to give him an exam at any time.
He bitterly turned over the “Young Jinyiwei” sent by his uncles, and his heart was mixed. The Qingning Palace was silent and no one dared to persuade him. Only a middle-aged **** who was usually ignored came forward and whispered: “Little master, dont worry, you cant stay in the palace after all. Isnt it? When theyre away, if you want to force the little master to copy it again, the servants can help little master write.”
Donggong chuckled, someone dared to come out to help him!
The prince looked at the unremarkable appearance of the eunuch, and there was a warm feeling in his heart. Rarely, he opened his mouth and asked, “What are you calling?”
The **** lowered his head and replied: “Liu Jin, slave and maidservant, is waiting in the temple, and shouldn’t have to answer to the young master. However, the ancients said that the master worried about the humiliation of the minister, the master humiliated the minister to death, and the servant saw that the young master was sad, so she dared not speak. The slave and maid had learned some interesting things from the Bell and Drummaster before, and it would be the best way to relieve boredom. If the young master can trust…”
Before he finished speaking, the little prince closed the “Jinyiwei” and looked at him with piercing eyes: “Can you really relieve the worries in the lonely heart? Then next time the two uncles enter the palace, can you stop them? Don’t let them leave so many papers?”
Liu Jin’s face twitched slightly, and he whispered: “The two uncles of the country are ancient straight gentlemen. They behave properly and must not stop them. But after they leave…”
After the uncles are gone…
What’s the use of you!
