On August 18th, the autumn weather is clear and cool.

On this day, a large area was drawn up in the east city of Guangzhou City, and a simple examination room was built, and the officers and soldiers surrounded it. Only two gates in the north and south were left, and the yamen runners were maintaining order.

The ten prefectures in Guangdong were held in three batches, and the Gaozhou Prefecture where Lin Qingran was located was the first batch.

Lin Qingran wore a Confucian scarf, a student uniform, and a test basket, and ranked among the candidates in Gaozhou Prefecture. The names of people and the shadow of trees, whether new or old, let this Zhu Junzi stand.

The front.

After the examination of the candidates in Guangzhou Prefecture and Zhaoqing Prefecture, it was the turn of the candidates in Gaozhou Prefecture who also needed to "search" them.

Along the way, Lin Weiran has gone from strong resistance at the beginning to now being numb. Even if the egg is pinched, he still rolls his eyes and just thinks that these two bastards have not grown eggs.

The scientific examination is a qualification examination for participating in the provincial examination. The elimination rate is relatively low. In previous years, it was conducted in various prefectures. However, this year's situation is special, and they are gathered in Guangzhou Prefecture for assessment.

Some students who know that the provincial examinations are hopeless will voluntarily give up this scientific examination, but more students choose to come over and get lucky. After all, the imperial examinations are very unpredictable, and maybe they really win the imperial examinations, so they will enter the gentry in one fell swoop.

Class.

After "search", the identity of the student needs to be checked. The person who is insured is no longer able to verify the correctness of the child, but check it based on the previous "school record file". It is the "body that once caused Lin Yanran to be extremely dissatisfied.

Weak and thin, white face without beard” and other information.

Lin Weiran entered the venue from Nanyuan Gate. The examination room area inside was filled with tables and chairs, and a corridor was left in the middle. There was a high platform in front, which was naturally a special seat for officials such as Song Tixue.

After the candidates entered the venue, the gate was closed. Song Tixue, wearing the fourth-rank official uniform, led a group of officials to the platform to invigilate the examination.

Lin Weiran's seat was in front of him and the test paper was soon released.

The test papers are divided into three categories, which are divided into students, students who are enlarged and students. Since Lin Qingran is a student of the rank, he took the test paper with the "Listen" printed on it, and the number is twenty-nine.

Unlike the boy tests in the past, the name must be written on the scientific test.

Now these test papers are presented to Song Tixue, and the candidate's information is also exposed to him. He can fully review the test papers based on the candidate's previous performance.

Like Li Shizhen, all three scientific examinations ended in failure, probably because he offended the then Tixue Master.

As several gongs rang out, the yamen patrolted the venue with wooden signs, and the exam had officially begun.

There are only two questions, one is eight-part essay and the other is strategy theory.

But when the eight-legged essay was released, all the students couldn't help but take a breath, and some even cursed in their hometown dialect, because the title of the Four Books only has two words: Zi said.

Compared to the circle of the last hospital examination, this time it seems to be better, but that's all.

This "Zi Yue" is undoubtedly the two most familiar words. Everyone learns the words of the saints, and thus understands many great principles. But just like the teacher teaches you a few years later, he suddenly asks you some of them.

What.

If you want to say it one by one, you don’t have that much test paper, and you’re afraid you won’t be able to finish it in a few months, but if you only choose some principles, this is naturally not a standard answer.

Lin Weiran's brows frowned slightly, looked up at Song Tixue on the high platform, and found that this man looked like a treacherous minister.

He has always had a concern, that is, whether Song Ti learned to give him a stir again, so that he could stop in the scientific examination and miss the chance to take the provincial examination.

Now that there is a dissatisfaction side, everyone knows that nerds like him are not good at interrogating questions, but now Song Tixue actually gives interrogating questions in the scientific exam, and this type of question is so tricky.

Realizing that Song Tixue might have been moved to knock him down again, his expression was serious. This time he became more serious, even if he was grinding ink, he seemed meticulous.

Grinding ink is like sharpening a knife. Good ink can make the characters more full and elegant. Lin Qingran picked up a piece of high-quality Hui ink, held the ink strips on both sides with his thumb and middle finger, placed his index finger on the top of the ink, and pressed gently with force

In the Duan inkstone, grind it finely with uniform force.

The ancient ink is lightly polished with a few fragrances, and the inkstone pool is bright and bright.

Good ink and inkstone, the inkstone pool is like a pool of inks, with a faint fragrance of ink floating. This preparation skill is the ultimate.

"A common man becomes a teacher for a hundred generations, and a word is the law of the world!"

Lin Qingran twisted his sleeves and splashed ink, and his wolf's pen was stained with ink. He answered on the white rice paper, writing with all his heart, without any distractions, as if the whole world was only the test paper and he was like him.

Fortunately, he had seen this article titled in order to pick up girls before.

This is the most exquisite problem that was praised by later generations. The "son" here corresponds to "a common man becomes a teacher for a hundred generations", and "say" corresponds to "a word makes the law of the world", which brings a common man to the saint's

status.

The cleverness here is that it is not trapped in what Confucius said, but focuses on promoting the status of Confucius. Whether it is good or bad to solve the problem is not only to see whether it is appropriate, but also to see its momentum.

"A word of the world is the law." How domineering is this? Who in the world dares to do so?

After solving the question, Lin Weiran continued to follow the question, start talking, start buying, start stocks, middle stocks, back stocks, and tie stocks. A very standard eight-legged essay was presented to him.

Perhaps because of concern, maybe he was really not hungry, or maybe he had some medicine added to it. He saw the clerk sending the lunch down, but he had no intention of moving. He looked at the topic of strategy and started doing it seriously.

Policy theory will become more and more important in the provincial examination, imperial examination and palace examination, and even only policy theory will be tested in the palace examination. However, in the provincial examination, the Four Books and Five Classics are actually the main focus, so the policy theory topics in this scientific examination are not too tricky.

"The way to maintain the country and the army!"

This is the topic of this scientific research strategy theory, which comes from the Fire Attack chapter of "The Art of War".

The full text is: "Therefore, it is said: A wise ruler is concerned about it, and a good general is lazy. He will not move, he will not use it, and he will not fight if he is in danger... This is the way to safe the country and the army."

It means that when there is no danger, do not start war easily. The monarch cannot start war easily because of temporary anger, and the general cannot send troops to fight because of temporary unhappiness. Only when it is beneficial to the country can he participate in war.

Feelings replace reason, improper considerations and poor planning, the result will be defeated. A monarch's wrong decision will lose the country, and a erroneous order from a general will lead to the annihilation of the entire army. Anger can be eliminated, anger can be calmed, and anger can be turned after anger can be turned into anger.

It is a joy, but once the country perishes, it will no longer exist, and those who have passed away in the war cannot survive again. As monarchs and generals, you must not act rashly or act rashly. You should put state affairs first, the overall situation first, and be calm.
