Chapter Twelve Midnight Fox Comes

() Calligraphy is a broad and profound art. Since it is an art, it cannot be written casually with a brush. It is easy to write but difficult to write well. This principle is the same as writing an article. Making things up randomly is an article.

Fine carving is also an article, but the difference between them is like the difference between heaven and earth. They are as different as clouds and mud and cannot be compared.

Han Li polished his ink and opened the test paper. He saw the calligraphy title "Applying the meaning of filial piety and brotherhood" in seven big characters. After a moment of concentration, he picked up his pen and almost finished it in one go, and wrote a sentence that broke the title:

"The stepmother teaches, and I am sincere in applying. I see that the royal way has been fulfilled."

This is a very formal question. The general idea is: inheriting the ambitions of parents and supporting them depends on education and enlightenment, and this kind of education and enlightenment needs to be carried out seriously and carefully and emphasized repeatedly. It can be seen that the implementation of benevolence and righteousness.

It's about trying your best.

Han Li's broken topic does not have many highlights, but it is very consistent with the meaning of the topic. The broken topic and the title echo each other. In terms of content, it is already top-notch.

This question most tests a person's basic eight-legged essay, not your thinking, because the thinking has been fixed for you, and there is not much room for you to develop. In this case, if you are too outstanding in solving the problem, it is obviously of little significance. With this skill,

It is better to focus all your thoughts on the latter part of the article, how to point out the importance of caring for the elderly, educating the people, and teaching students to education. As long as there are no abruptness or errors in the middle, it will definitely be regarded as a first-class article. If the wording is used

The better, the better it will stand out.

He pondered for a moment, and roughly figured it out. Then he picked up his pen and improvised the topic. It took him more than an hour and several revisions to finish the article. He took a deep breath, copied another copy of the article, and then

Set it aside to dry.

After finishing writing, Han Li looked at it with satisfaction. The handwriting was as vivid as flying, and the flowers were in full bloom.

Then, he wrote his name at the bottom with satisfaction, stamped it, blew it for a while, waited for the ink to dry, and raised his hand to indicate that he should hand in the paper.

So far, it’s only been half a cup of tea.

Han Li was the first to submit his paper.

His rapidity immediately attracted the attention of many people. Some of them were surprised, some were astonished, but most of them were confused.

Compared to Han Li, Zhang Duo was unlucky. He was imprisoned for a day and a night, and his mind was filled with mush. As soon as he saw such a topic, he accidentally wrote this paragraph:

"The way of teaching has its essentials. If the mind is not let go, the way will exist on its own. This is a common question. It is just saying that the key to education lies in the human heart. As long as the human heart is not lost, the way of learning will last forever. But it is really shocking.

This is the title. Your Majesty, please see, the human heart comes from the Son of Heaven. The Holy King has no father, and his father is also the Tao. The Son of Heaven has no relatives, but his relatives are the common people..."

The full text means that education depends on the human heart. As long as the human heart is still there, education can be implemented. Whether the human heart is there or not, the key lies in the emperor. The emperor should not have his father. Even if he does, then the emperor's father should be the way of heaven.

The emperor should not have relatives. Even if he does, his brothers and sisters should be common people in the world.

This passage is logically correct. If you write an article, it is nonsense. It is all high-sounding truths and nonsense. Today you say that the common people are the children of the emperor, and tomorrow they say they are brothers. In fact, it is all empty talk.

, but the problem is that if this sentence was placed in the reign of Emperor Baode, it would be completely wrong.

Because most of the civil servants in the imperial court today are disciples of the Ji family, they all believe in Ji Yun's principles.

There is a record in Ji Yun's "Notes on the Thatched Cottage": "Yun was born with a virtuous nature, and was taught by his loving mother three times when he was young."

In just a dozen words, it records the reason why Ji Yun became a talented person: When he was a child, Ji Yun often liked to play among the tombs. When his mother saw this, she said: "This place is not suitable for my son."

"I want to live here." So he took him to live near the market. However, Ji Yun started to play around with learning how to trade as a merchant. His mother said again: "This place is not suitable for my son to live either." So he continued.

Ji Yun moved to live next to the academy. At this time, Ji Yun imitated Confucian scholars and learned etiquette. His mother said: "This is a suitable place for my son to live." So he settled down.

It can be seen that Ji Yuncheng was taught by his mother. Therefore, disciples of the Ji school regard the education of children by parents as the key to success. Zhang Duo actually said that as long as there is a heart, education can be carried out, which completely deviated from the Ji school.

Moreover, Zhang Duo violated a taboo when he mentioned the emperor in his article. The final result can be imagined.

The exams in the afternoon were about etiquette and mathematics. Etiquette was completely memorized. For Han Li now, there was no difficulty at all. As for mathematics, problem analysis was Han Li's strength.

Within half a stick of incense, he had already finished all the questions.

After handing in the paper quickly and walking out of the examination room, Han Li felt relaxed and was waiting for the results of the college examination.



That night, in a large room of the Tushan County government office, there were several examiners wearing official uniforms and black gauze hats. One of them, sitting in the hall with a serious face, about fifty years old, was

It was Li Kaiyang, the examiner who presided over the college examination this time.

Tushan County is not a big county. Originally, there was no need for a big shot like Li Kaiyang to be the chief examiner. However, because Tushan City is adjacent to Qingyun City, the smooth conduct of Tushan City's college examinations is related to the stability of Qingyun City's enrollment, so Li Kaiyang was sent.

Such a person.

"Huh? Have you seen any good papers? If so, bring them over to me for a look." Li Kaiyang looked at some papers and frowned, but he didn't find any that satisfied him.

"Here are a few copies."

Several deputy examiners hurriedly ran in, brought up the papers that they had read and thought they were good, spread them on the table, and let Li Kaiyang look at them.

"Huh? This article talks about benevolence, righteousness and etiquette. It seems to be upright and denounces Fang Qiu, but the uprightness is not close to benevolence. Those who talk about great principles are really moaning for no reason and are considered to be second-rate."

Li Kaiyang read a few articles, shook his head, and put them aside.

The deputy examiner nearby also came over to take a look and changed the original A grade to B grade.

"Huh? Good word!"

Suddenly, Li Kaiyang saw an article, "Iron painting, silver hook, natural beauty", he nodded immediately, and then looked at the title of the article, "The stepmother teaches, Yu Jinyu Shen, seeing the king's way is done with heart." This sentence,

He patted the table lightly and said, "Okay, what a step-adult to teach us. Our parents are not just a gift of upbringing to us, but also a virtue of education. Not bad."

This article was naturally written by Han Li, and the examiner Li Kaiyang was from the Ji school. His article simply touched the other person's heart, and the examiner couldn't help but praise it.

Moreover, Han Li's font is imitated by Ji Yun's font. The handwriting feels like a natural charm, which can be said to be both strong and soft, full of vitality.

"Dean Li is the most strict, and rarely writes praiseworthy articles."

"I'm afraid the top spot in calligraphy arts in this academy examination has been decided."

When the deputy examiners around him saw Li Kaiyang's appearance, they all whispered to each other and came over to watch. When they saw the handwriting, they all applauded.

"Who is this candidate? Submit your resume." Seeing his success, Li Kaiyang couldn't help but ask.

"This candidate's name is Han Li. He is a student born to Kong Congzu in Class A of Tushan Academy."

"Yes." Li Kaiyang looked at the paper in his hand, nodded, and said: "The concept of this paper and the handwriting are excellent. I think it will be ranked first in calligraphy art."

Naturally, Han Li didn't know everything that happened in the county government room.

Tonight, he received an uninvited guest - the white fox he met in Tushan.

Although he originally wanted to hunt this white fox in Tushan, today is different from previous days. The family's economy has improved significantly, and his pursuit of money is not as big as that day. What's more, this white fox came uninvited.

unusual.

"Is it for the Sky-Mending Pendant?"

"Chirp chirp..."

The white fox raised its two paws to gesture and kept shouting. Unfortunately, Han Li was confused and couldn't understand what the white fox wanted to express.

People have human speech, and animals have animal speech.
