Be a master through ancient times
Chapter 99
When the Spring and Autumn Annals of the Sutra came up, Chu Ci looked at the title and thought a lot in his mind.
In the end, he chose the most overlooked point in the topic to write, intending to win by surprise.The article was completed in one go, and the number of words was controlled just right. When Chuci read the article again, there was nothing to delete or modify.
His heart was agitated, and he felt that this question should be the best one he wrote.
The Spring and Autumn Festival he made is titled: Clubhouse, the beginning of faith.If you don't follow from the beginning, what is the quality?
The title comes from "The 11th Year of Chenggong" in "Chunqiu Zuozhuan". It talks about Jin Ligong and Qin Huangong forming an alliance and meeting in Linghu. Then Fan Wenzi said, what's the point of such an alliance?If you don't even go to the place you agreed to at the beginning, and you don't obey at the beginning, what will you talk about later?Sure enough, not long after, Duke Huan of Qin betrayed the covenant.
Most people wrote this article purely from this incident, condemning Duke Huan of Qin as a treacherous villain.But Chu Ci analyzed from what happened after he broke his promise.
After Duke Huan of Qin betrayed the covenant, he joined forces with the Zhai clan to attack Jin, and then Duke Li of Jin sent envoys to break off diplomatic relations with Qin, and then united with other countries to defeat Qin.So Chu Ci breaks the inscription and reads, "Those who gain the Tao will help more, but those who lose the Way will not help much."
The ancients said that by taking history as a mirror, one can know the ups and downs.Most of the historical materials recorded in the Spring and Autumn Annals are relatively obscure, and one thing can be said in a few words. If you don't have a rich reserve of knowledge, you may only feel a headache after reading the article.This is also the reason why there are relatively few people who rule the Spring and Autumn Period.Its small words have great meaning, and small words are not covered.
The spring and autumn questions were done very quickly, but the verses stumped Chuci.
Because of Master Qin's request, he would write one or two poems a day for a period of time, and the rhyme and so on would naturally not be a problem.But the problem is that Chu Ci is used to expressing feelings, and every poem must express its true feelings.
Now he is locked in a small cell, called every day should not, called the earth is not working, where is the real feeling?
Chu Ci thought for a long time, and finally gave up on poetry.He had to first transcribe the Spring and Autumn Ming scriptures on the answer sheet.
For an entire afternoon, Chu Ci was torturing himself.Painted and painted on a piece of white paper, changed and changed.When it was dark and the candles were lit, he still hadn't decided what to write.
Chu Ci finally felt the pain. He felt that he couldn't wait any longer, so he simply used the old method, trying to fill in all the rhymes, and then think about each sentence.
As I wrote and wrote like this, I finally asked him to write it out.He was modifying the poem he had written in combination with the current scene, and in the end, it read well.
Chu Ci smiled wryly, if Master Qin saw this poem, he would definitely scold him, but he can't help it, he is always worse than others when it comes to writing poems.There are occasional punchlines, but those are rare.He could only comfort himself that this was not that important after all.
The second day passed just like that, and on the third day, he regained the confidence he had in the first game.The four official documents were written quickly and well.Especially the verdict when the government decides the case, the case is settled quickly, the sentencing is just right, and every article is done according to the law, so that people can't find any faults, leaving most of the new officials far behind behind.
After the second exam was handed in, Chu Ci rested for another day, and then went to the third exam in a vigorous state of mind.
The third test is five essays on policy theory, which is also an argumentative essay.Give you some current affairs and politics for you to analyze, and some even predict the results, infer future development, or fight for disaster relief, so you can make suggestions.
If this doesn't work, Chu Ci feels that he can be a dog.Not to mention how many current events he has analyzed in so many days in ancient times, as a modern person with a broad vision, combining history and inferring future development is definitely a slap in the face for them.
"bang bang bang..."
The gong sounded again, which meant that the hard work of many students over the past few years had finally come to the test.
If you win, you will be settled for a lifetime.Even if you fail in the examination, those who have made a name for themselves can go to the Ministry of Officials to register their names and wait for a replacement.
If not, come back in two years.
The ancients said: Thirty old Mingjing, fifty young Scholars.Those who win every game are still very few.Most of the people have gone through a lot of tempering before blowing out the yellow sand and reaching the gold.
Kou Jing and the others had to withdraw to the barracks from the day the imperial examination ended.He made an agreement with Chu Ci that he would come to congratulate him on the day when the rankings were announced.
……
At the end of the third session, all the test papers of the first session were transcribed.
This transcription is not that simple.First of all, when the test papers of the students are handed in, the lowest-level officials must first pick out the test papers that will be on the blue list and put them aside.
Then those who pass the screening must be named, which is also a big project.After pasting the name, start to transcribe.A total of 6000 candidates participated in the rural examination this time, and only 20 officials took part in the transcription.In other words, one person has to transcribe more than 200 copies, and there are seven articles on one copy.
Transcription is not just copying, but also responsible for finding typos and writing them at the beginning of the volume, reducing the workload of the Shangguan.Therefore, after a rural examination, in addition to the candidates who took the examination, these low-level civil servants will also be exhausted.
After the transcription is completed, a special person must be proofread to make sure that the original volume and the articles on the Zhu volume are exactly the same.After the proofreading, it needs to be numbered, so as not to find out who the winners are when the ranking comes out.
Before they had rested for a day, the test papers for the second session were brought in again in boxes.
Compared with them, the examiners are much simpler, as long as they are responsible for reading the article, if the article is good, they will draw a circle on it and write the word "recommended".
After writing the recommended article, it can be submitted and handed over to the deputy examiner for review.If the deputy chief examiner also thinks it is good, draw a circle on it and write the word "take".
Only the papers with the word "take" written on them will be sent to the examiner's hands. At this time, there are no more than one out of ten papers.Therefore, the examiner is the most relaxed, and only needs to read two or three hundred copies.He felt that a good article had to be written with the character "中" on it. Only students with this character could be as stable as old dogs, and formally ascend the steps of the ruling class and become a part of them.
The test paper for the first session was divided into two parts. The part with questions about the Four Books was sent to the Fourth Study Room, while the part with questions about the Five Classics was sent to the Five Classics Room.
These examiners gathered together to review the test papers wholeheartedly, and when they changed the writing in a mess, they threw it directly on the ground, and these were rejected papers.Change it to a good one, and write the word "recommended" on it.
An examiner surnamed Yang changed to several bad ones in a row, and he became irritable.He took a sip of tea to suppress his desire to tear up the paper.
He casually picked up another article, at first he read it, but he didn't take it seriously, then the more he read it, the more he read it, and finally he couldn't help but patted the table, "Okay, okay, well written!"
"Master Yang, what are you doing!"
The other colleagues complained one after another. His voice made them have to watch it again.
"I'm sorry everyone, it's really hard to control myself." Master Yang apologized and continued to look down.
When he saw the second article, he frowned slightly. It didn't mean that this article was bad, but compared to the last one, it was a bit out of the ordinary.
He shook his head and went to read the third one.
"Hahaha, you really have a quick mind! You can write such a sentence!"
"Master Yang, if you are so startled again, this old man will report to the chief examiner and let you stay alone." An old man glared at Mr. Yang. Will hit the table, who can stand it? !
In the end, he chose the most overlooked point in the topic to write, intending to win by surprise.The article was completed in one go, and the number of words was controlled just right. When Chuci read the article again, there was nothing to delete or modify.
