Chapter 320: Too Much Controversy (Monthly Pass)
call……
Suddenly, everyone looked at Chen Kaizhi with a strange expression.
Yao Wenzhi was stunned. Obviously, he never expected that Chen Kaizhi's attitude would be very different from those he had met.
However, his surprise was only a moment. Soon he calmed down and nodded to Chen Kaizhi and said, "You are right, okay, let's go and take the exam."
There was no joy or anger on his face, and Chen Kaizhi bowed to him again, without caring about the different gazes of others, so he walked away calmly.
According to the exam number, he quickly found his own exam room. Unlike the treatment he received during the last exam, the academy occupied a huge area and could accommodate many people to take the exam, so both the venue and the facilities were perfect.
After Chen Kaizhi sat down, he ate the pastry he brought and then cheered up.
I never tire of reading and writing every day, isn’t it the day I waited for? Now the highlight is coming, but I don’t know what this crucial exam is taking?
Chen Kaizhi pondered. Although he seemed calm on the surface, he was actually quite nervous. He now has a place among scholars. Under the so-called reputation, the pressure is extremely great. If he loses his hooves this time, it will probably be funny.
Finally, with the sound of a loud gong, the civil servants holding the sign began to shuttle through the examination halls.
A civil servant raised a sign to Chen Kaizhi's examination room. Chen Kaizhi looked carefully and saw a few big words written on the mark: "Take it from the people and use it for the people."
Damn...
Chen Kaizhi was stunned.
Isn't this... not my own point of view? That article that has made it to the list...
This is taken from the people and used for the people. In today's current situation, it has been widely discussed. Some people think it is novel, while others show rejection.
But no matter what, Chen Kaizhi felt a little confused now.
Taking this topic as a topic actually requires you to discuss "take it from the people and use it for the people". This highly controversial test question is actually the most test of the candidates. Whether you are the positive or the opposite side, if you are not careful, you may fall into this huge trap.
Because no one knows the examiner's attitude, and the problem is so sharp, unless you make a very persuasive reason, even if your article is written in a colorful way, but the examiner does not approve of it, it will be a failure.
The problem is that God knows the appetite of so many reviewers, after all, it is hard to adjust everyone.
It's a pit...this is...
Chen Kaizhi couldn't help but complain, but he was still confused for a moment. Taking it from the people and using it for the people is not wrong with the point he put forward, but how to discuss it, how to convince the examiners, or even leave a deep impression on people, so that those who support this view agree with it, and those who oppose this view have no reason to oppose it, this... will test the candidate's skills.
Reason...reason?
Ma De and Chen Kaizhi were so worried that he would curse his stomach and scold him for being too crooked. If he had known this, he would rather not have this article on the list of people.
This article that entered the Heavenly Man List was only given the opportunity to draw the questions. In fact, Chen Kaizhi had no advantage in this highly controversial question.
This must be convincing!
He pondered, how can it be the most convincing?
Chen Kaizhi has two lifetimes of experience in this regard. What is the most easiest value to be recognized in ancient and modern times, and both in China and abroad? Only this is found...
He was a little irritable at first, but gradually calmed down. He thought hard and was not in a hurry to start writing. He sat there for half an hour, and finally became a little enlightened. His eyes flashed, the corners of his lips gently curled up, and a trace of cunning flashed through his eyes.
OK, then let you see what the greatest common divisor is.
Chen Kaizhi took the pen and dipped it ink, and then started writing. The first sentence was actually to solve the problem. This is crucial. Since you have an indicator in your mind, the next step is how to create it with vocabulary.
Chen Kaizhi concentrated his mind and then began to sprinkle his writing, and then he followed the pen and turned into a dragon and a snake.
Although there are no strict norms in the current text, there are many things that have become customs and must be avoided.
Chen Kaizhi has written many articles under the careful guidance of Liu Mengyuan over the past year, and he has also known the details of them.
But even so, he did not dare to be careless and impeccable, coupled with specifications that comply with the standards, in addition to this, he also needed a certain writing style to make people happy to read.
After all, this is an era without punctuation marks. How to interpret a sentence depends entirely on rhyme. The so-called rhythm is to judge the pronunciation of your words alone. Which sentence is the beginning and which sentence is the end in this dazzling article. Because of this, Chen Kaizhi must ponder every word word.
After more than an hour, an article was made in his hands. He read it again in his heart, corrected several mistakes, then he let out a sigh and carefully copied a formal answer.
After one day's exam, Chen Kaizhi was exhausted, and other candidates were not much better. Shiwen was different from other articles. They were generally aware of whether they were good or bad. Only Shiwen was expounding their views, which depends entirely on the attitude of the examiners. If they don't like your views, they would write them in a scattered way, and no matter how you imagine them, they would sneer at them.
Therefore, everyone is nervous.
After Chen Kaizhi got along with the book, he followed the crowd to Minglun Hall.
In Minglun Hall, the examiners also seemed tired. When someone sang Chen Kaizhi's name, Chen Kaizhi slowly came to the hall and said, "Student Chen Kaizhi, bid farewell to the Grand Master."
This is etiquette. Although it is complicated and even formal, etiquette means etiquette, which is the main axis of this era.
The closer you get to the core of the world and the higher your status, the more you will be.
This time, Yao Wenzhi no longer joked, but sat upright and nodded at him, "Okay."
Chen Kaizhi bowed again, then he took Kaolan and left slowly.
……………………
That day and night.
In Minglun Hall in the Academy, twenty-seven reviewers are ready. Faced with the thousands of test papers collected today, each examiner needs to circulate them.
Because it is timely writing, whether you can go to high school depends entirely on the attitude of the examiners.
Among the twenty-seven examiners, which article is the most circled, has a better chance to stand out.
If there is a dispute, Yao Wenzhi, who is the chief examiner, will make the final conclusion.
The examiners are already busy. After all, the workload is too great, and there are thousands of articles. So when they check the documents, they just glanced at them a few times to see if the article was in compliance with the norms or the beginning. If it was dull, they wouldn't even bother to read the opinions. They just held the pen and drew a fork. Then, the article was passed to the next one until the twenty-seven examiners reviewed it. Then the clerks recorded the scores. The highest score was twenty-seven, which was the score given by the twenty-seven examiners.
This is an extremely huge project, and the examiners are obviously not afraid of cumbersomeness.
Everyone knows that the vocational ceremony, especially in this exam, once you have high school, you can be awarded an official position, and you will never be careless.
If you neglect your duties, it is a serious crime of siege and extermination of the clan.
Because of this, no one dares to slackew.
At present, as the chief examiner, Yao Wenzhi is extremely leisurely because now is only the stage for the examiners to review for the first time.
He has not been allowed to leave the examination room these days, so he specially prepared tea. At this time, he was drinking and drinking alone, which was very pleasant.
A examiner gathered a batch of papers and sent them to him, and smiled bitterly: "Mr. Yao, this year's questions are not difficult, but unfortunately... there are quite a few differences."
"Oh?" Yao Wenzhi raised his eyebrows and smiled, looked at the examiner with his eyes, and asked with confusion: "Why are there a lot of differences?"
The examiner raised the stack of reviewed test papers and smiled bitterly, "Look, the number of test papers here is only a fifteen-fifth. If it were in previous years, how could there be twenty circles in the hundreds of test papers? It can be seen that the judges who have reviewed the papers have a huge controversy over this."
Yao Wenzhi nodded, but in fact, he thought of this question temporarily. A few days ago, the Empress Dowager ordered him to enter the court, and repeatedly mentioned that he took it from the people and used it for the people, and hoped to let him explain it to the Empress Dowager.
Since the Empress Dowager is concerned, she also has mixed praises and criticisms about taking it from the people and using it for the people. Psychologically, she agrees taking it from the people and using it for the people, but she also thinks it is too idealistic and unrealistic. To be precise, it is just an empty slogan.
However... the so-called "the superior has something to like and the subordinate has something to do. Since the empress dowager is concerned, how can he not care about it?
So in this imperial examination, he simply used this topic to see what amazing analysis the elites and heroes of Da Chen could propose.
But... it's too controversial.
The reviewers were all drawn from the Hanlin Academy, the Ministry of Rites or the Academy. Everyone had different ideas. Those who agreed to it strongly agreed to it, and those who opposed it also opposed it to the end. This kind of controversy had existed in the past, but now it was brought into the review.
Yao Wenzhi stroked his beard and said with anticipation: "Get a few articles to take a look."
So the reviewer took out a few copies, and after reading it, Yao Wenzhi also smiled bitterly.
In fact, this article is still acceptable. The first article at the beginning is a severe criticism of the people who take it from the people. The so-called taking it from the people will never be used with the people. There are twelve circles in total, but it has been exchanged for more than a dozen forks. This is probably the reason why the reviewers cannot reach a consensus.
