Lin Yanchao looked at Lin Yan with aggrieved look on his face.

Lin Qun smiled and said, "My teacher's tone is a bit heavy. I heard that you have only been studying the classics for half a year, right?"

Lin Yanchao nodded quickly.

Lin Feng said: "In just half a year, the writing time is almost the same as that of other people in three or four years."

"Really?" Lin Yanchao was excited.

Lin Feng nodded and said, "To be honest, you have a good skeleton in this article, and you are quite good at it. But if you win the children's exam next year, it is still far from enough, that is, you are a little better than Tong Sheng, who has never taken the county exam."

Lin Yanchao was telling the truth, but Lin Yanchao was not convinced. If his level was still not enough at that time, he would probably release the killer of copying books. Anyway, he memorized the questions of the eight-legged essay, and if the questions were correctly bet in the exam, it would not be considered as cheating. The examiner usually blames himself for making the questions so easily and was not dismissed, but the ranking would not be too high.

Anyway, being able to get it is a skill, which means you are working hard. Of course, you must also prevent the examiner from making any biased questions such as interrogation questions, which will be miserable.

Lin Yanchao couldn't help but guide him. Is it for his own good? Lin Yanchao still humbly said: "Sir, isn't this a way to ask you for academic research?"

Lin Qiang asked back: "How to treat academic research? I asked you if you remember the poem I gave you last time?"

Lin Yanchao blurted out and said: "Last night, spring water was born by the river, and the giant ship was light. It has always been useless to move. This day, the flow of the middle is free to move."

Lin Feng smiled and said, "Just remember. Studying is like pushing a boat. When the water is full, you will naturally walk. If your skills are not enough, you will just pushing a boat on land. Do you know what the shortcomings of your article are?"

Lin Yanchao said goodbye and had a puzzle with him. He said nothing and said immediately: "Please give me advice."

Lin Feng spread the paper on the desk and said, "From your article just now, it is okay to solve the two sentences of the question. You have already worked hard in the scriptures, but the following questions are all function words and overlapping words and sentences, which are clichés used in the past. I think you have memorized a lot of literary documents in your daily life."

Lin Yanchao suddenly felt a sweat. Should he be so powerful? He saw through my reality at first glance. Lin Yanchao could only harden his teeth and said, "Sir, see clearly."

Lin Feng did not blame Lin Yanchao for saying: "I didn't say you were wrong. Wenfu's essay is also a must-understand. These people are famous essay masters today, and they have to learn the framework and rules of the article. However, many of the articles before the Jiajing period were strange and long. They used difficult and dangerous words to describe the simple statements, and used strange and inconsistent words to overthrow the writings. They were fashionable at the time, but it was difficult to be considered a masterpiece at the moment."

"How should disciples make Cheng Wen's article a good article?"

Lin Feng immediately recited: "If you want to understand the principles, you must trace the origin of the Six Classics, and study the theories of the Confucians of the Song and Yuan Dynasties; if you want to speak, you must conform to the meaning of the title, and take them from the books of the Three Dynasties and the Han Dynasties; if you want to prosper, you must use the principles to spread your mind, and you will be submerged in the ancient texts of Zhou, Qin, Han, Tang, and Song dynasties."

"This is the three ways of truth, divination, and qi. I said that you solved the problem well. With the word divination and study of the word divination, you can consider it to be a very small success in the Song Confucianism. However, your words are empty and the situation in your writing is not clear, but because you only focus on current literature, the two ways of divination have no foundation."

Lin Yanchao nodded after hearing this. Lin Feng said just now that he should read the comments of the Six Classics and Cheng Zhu. As for Ciyi, it should be based on the Qin, Han, Tang and Song dynasties, and there were Mandarin languages, Li Sao, etc. Han Fu was also gorgeous, and the prose of the Eight Great Masters of the Tang and Song dynasties.

I am indeed only reading the Four Books and Five Classics Notes.

Lin Yanchao said: "Sir, this is to learn from the pre-Qin philosophers and learn from the articles of everyone in the Tang and Song dynasties!"

"Yes, after you recite the articles you write, the writing is not strong and the machine is not smooth. If you want to write the eight-legged essay with great talent, you have to read ancient essays. The ancient essays are detailed and vigorous, and the writing is broad, and the articles you write are exquisite."

Lin Yanchao remembered the two bookcases that Lin Liao and he referred to, and told him that this was the book he read before the scholars. This shows that the trend of scholars in the Ming Dynasty was not declining, and was not limited to the Four Books and Five Classics.

He heard a joke in his last life, saying that an old Jinshi on the list of Jinshi in the Qing Dynasty saw a young man studying. The Jinshi asked the young man, what were you studying? The young man said, "Records of the Grand Historian."

The Jinshi asked the young man, who wrote the Records of the Grand Historian? The young man said that Taishigong was. The Jinshi asked again, which Jinshi was from the Jinshi? The young man replied that he was from the Han Dynasty and had never passed the Jinshi. At this moment, the old Jinshi took the books and read a few sentences, disdained that the article was mediocre and there was nothing to read. He wasted any time and left after he finished speaking.

Although it is a joke, it is no wonder that later generations scolded the eight-legged scholar to this point.

However, the scholars in the Ming Dynasty were different. The Ming Dynasty's literary style first praised the Taige style of the Three Yangs. Then, the seven sons raised the retro banner, such as Li Mengyang, He Jingming, and Li Panlong, and put forward the slogan that literary must be the Qin and Han dynasties and poetry must be the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

Now that Li Panlong's death, Wang Shizhen, the second seven sons, led the literary world, and his status has been given today to be compared, such as Jin Yong, Jin Yao, romance, Qiong Yao, and the third young master of online literature.

How popular was Wang Shizhen at that time? As long as he had a collection of essays, Confucian scholars would plagiarize his articles. Ainanying, a talented man during the Tianqi period, sarcastically said that young boys did not have to read or write essays, but there were four manuscripts on the shelf. Every time they encountered social events, they could be cut into pieces and could be completed.

Wang Shizhen's literary style represents the literary style of scholars and officials in the Ming Dynasty today. At the same time, he advocated retro style and also subtly influenced the imperial examination. For example, before the Jiajing period, scholars only studied the Four Books and Five Classics, but the current writing model is no longer possible. Even if they win, they cannot get a good ranking.

Lin Feng nodded and said, "Look carefully, Jiajing will try Cheng Mo in the future. His articles all have the afterglow of the Qin and Han dynasties. Your articles are smooth, but they lack words and qi, so they have bones but no flesh, and they are chewed dryly. You are now learning from the Qin and Han dynasties and learning from the Tang and Song dynasties. Only by being full of knowledge can you write beautiful articles."

Lin Yanchao listened to Lin Qing's words and agreed, and asked immediately: "When the disciple wants to say goodbye, what article should be the first? "

This was also a debate at that time. The seven sons of the front and back decided that the writing must be the Qin and Han dynasties, and that they should not read books after the Dali. However, many people did not agree with it, where did the articles of Han Yu, Su Dongpo and Wang Anshi be placed. The Tang and Song dynasties are another school of literary circles, and the famous ones include Wang Shenzhong, Tang Shunzhi, and Gui Youguang. They opposed the view that the seven sons of the front and back written writing must be the Qin and Han dynasties, and believed that the articles of the Tang and Song dynasties also had considerable points.

Lin Yanchao is now going to establish his own style of writing, at least the word "Eight-Legendary" and "Enjoy the two ways of learning from the Qin and Han Dynasties, or learn from the Tang and Song Dynasties. This is also a direction of choice.

Lin Feng said: "You can read the Eight Great Masters' Writings and Collections first. The most important thing in studying the Six Classics and History of the Han Dynasty is the famous masters of Han, Ou, Zeng and Su. Compared with the rude and provocative articles of the pre-Qin and three dynasties, the Tang and Song dynasties are easy to read. You can read this book first."

"yes."

As he said that, Lin Yan took a stack of books from the bookcase of "Eight Great Masters' Writings" to Lin Yanchao. Lin Yanchao looked at it as written by Mao Kun, the grandfather of the Confucian general Mao Yuanyi, and he was also a firm member of the Tang and Song sect.

The reputation of the Eight Great Masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties that we are familiar with today is widely known to everyone because of this book "Eight Great Masters' Writings".

Lin Yanchao solemnly took it.

Lin Feng said immediately: "Master, you are practicing by yourself. If you study hard and study hard, you cannot help you. You can only do your best to do your best."

"Reading requires great perseverance and perseverance. If you don't understand a sentence, don't read the next sentence and think it through. If you don't understand it today, you won't read it again tomorrow. If you don't understand it this year, you should have the ambition of water dropping through the stone next year. Some people read books like digging a well, but there is no water to drink. This way, reading thousands of books is futile. Instead, it is better to study one scripture. You should be warned."

Lin Yanchao happily took it.

Lin Feng said again: "You go back today and read the Eight Great Masters' Writings for two days first, and then review the meaning of the scriptures for two days. You have achieved some success in the scriptures, but it is not enough to be with those who have made hard work and devoted to studying the meaning of the scriptures. When it comes to the length and shortcoming, you need to carefully consider it and not let go. If it takes time, it will be effective."

"Five days later, you will come to my place again, and help you solve your doubts and examine your knowledge. If you have not been instructed by your teacher in the future, you will follow this method, no matter it is windy or rainy, do you understand?"

Lin Yanchao said: "Disciple follows the teacher's order."
