Transmigrating to the Ming Dynasty’s Imperial Examination

Pro-disciples like Choi Xie are naturally treated differently from others. After finishing his homework for other students, Mr. Lin asked them to study by himself. He only took him into the inner room with a heated kang and asked him to sit by the kang and listen to private counseling.

The two teachers and students have a tacit understanding, and all the purpose of learning is to pass the student examination. Therefore, Cui Xie usually doesn't even learn poems: the requirements for poems and essays are different. Poems are more concise. The antithetical sentences in the text that are dependent on each other have to be written in a tactful manner. Learning more poems by talented scholars can easily affect the syntax of the article.

Mr. Lin first took the "pre-topic" homework he wrote and said: "The words you wrote are fortunately tied to the saints' chapters and sentences, and the words are also well-known everywhere. It is a magnificent way. But I think your words are not elegant enough. Winning with Qi pulse is like taking the path of Tang and Song ancient prose.

"But Shiwen is the style of today, and it is meant to be written for today’s examiners. If the examiner doesn’t like ancient prose, he will think your writing is too simple. So the eight-match antithesis of the text must be neat and beautiful. The impression that the quality of the question is better than the text is brought back."

Cui Xie took a careful note and honestly admitted: "When the student first came to the county, the lord of the county said that Shi Wen was born out of ancient Chinese and asked me to memorize Mr. Zou Yangzi’s Collected Works of Mr. Six. The student Xu Yi memorized many articles. It has unconsciously taken the traces of the ancient text when writing."

Mr. Lin asked indifferently: "How many have you memorized?"

He lowered his eyes, looked at the snow-white pages and said, "I'm already familiar with it."

There are 320 articles in "Mr. Six's Collected Works". He started memorizing three new articles every day from the end of August. In the next few months, he was too busy with homework, so he reduced it to two. Finish memorizing. Not only did he recite it once, but he also consolidated it according to the Ebbinghaus forgetting curve. There were only a few days during which I stopped memorizing new articles due to incidents, and I had to review the old articles when the lamp was blown at night. At most, I had to memorize more than 20 articles a day, and now I still have to review more than a dozen old articles every day.

Sometimes when he recalled it, he didn't know how to persevere. But he knew that in the future, he would continue to learn and learn, because the imperial examination was the broadest...even the only way in front of him.

Mr. Lin moved slightly and sighed: "I didn't expect you to have such aspirations. It's not wrong to memorize ancient essays. It's not a mistake to memorize ancient essays. You must be refined and powerful to capture the whole article in one go. It's not a good idea to learn from ancient articles. Just get to the text When comparing sentences in eight comparisons, you must be neat and rigorous, refine the text, and pay attention to the rhythm of phonology. Ancient prose has the advantages of ancient prose, and contemporary prose has the advantages of sometimes prose. Don’t blindly worship the past and suppress the present.

Cui Xie’s awe of the eight-legged style is far better than that of ancient prose. At any rate, the ancient prose was memorized scattered from middle school. The advanced style of eight-legged style has lived for more than 20 years and has not been studied properly. How dare you to belittle it. He responded with an excellent attitude: "Students understand, they will pay attention to sculpting words and chapters in the future."

Mr. Lin also said: "Don't be too sculpted, if it is too delicate and gorgeous, it will be inferior."

...... Is this a two-way block?

The carving is not right or not, how should I write it? Making a time text is almost the same as making a plan for Party A. I'm so heartbroken before I write it!

Mr. Lin sighed thoughtfully: "When you get to the examination room, you will see if you can hit the test. If you hit you, you can do it with your eyes closed. If you don't hit the exam, it's like a bride married into a husband. , Mother-in-law’s harsh home: It’s not beautiful, it’s not solemn, it’s not to use allusions, and it's not to use allusions...it's all wrong to do it."

There was a hint of resentment on his always serious face, as if he missed the examiner who had trampled him, Cui Xie couldn't help but peeked. He noticed it a little bit, then concealed his expression by drinking tea, and said slowly: "The county respects you so much. It is not a problem to come to your county to try one step. It's just that you have to try to figure out the residence and the promotion of scholars during the official test and Taoist test. Su Ri's articles cater to his preferences."

When Mr. Lin said this, Cui Xie remembered that the county magistrate Qi always likes to write articles. He also told the book boy in the county that he would buy a copy when the county honoured the collection. Since he now has a bookstore, he should also try to figure out the main test's article before the county test. Why not simply print a set of books to the county magistrate Qi?

Anyway, "Shen Yuan Poetry Collection" can sell more than two hundred copies, and Mr. Qi's travel notes packaged in a small and fresh style should also be able to sell a lot.

Don't all scholars pay attention to the three immortality of "dedication, meritorious service, and proposition"? Although he can't help Qi county magistrate to gain any political achievements and move into the famous eunuch's shrine in Ann, at least he can let his articles pass on. In the future, he will compile local chronicles. Maybe the editor will record him in the "Arts" volume. A half article.

He lost his mind for a while, and soon woke up again, staring at Mr. Lin, for fear that he might have missed something. Fortunately, Mr. Lin himself was immersed in the feeling of resentment against unknown examiners or the scientific research itself, and did not notice his abnormality.

He picked up the pen and memorized a few words at random. When Mr. Lin returned from a wandering spirit, he nodded his head approvingly and continued: "Ancient essays are written in parallel and prose. The second part of the prose. From the beginning of the topic to the beginning, it is a prose. The sentences in the middle of the eight comparisons are similar to the ancient parallel prose, but the contrast requirements are not so neat, as long as the text and meaning are aligned. There are also prose sentences, and finally the full text is ended with a prose sentence, which is the main topic. This is the structure of the entire text."

This time he did not show Cui Xie the collection of Cheng Mo, but wrote a short model article specifically for him to read: "The article should bear the subject matter, discuss the subject, and use the words of the ancients to express your heart. The voices are all in these eight parables. One of the two is the "before the title", which is the part where the ancients said that the "starting and turning together" is the part of the inheritance. To write fictitious or realistic, hold the topic and make your own comments. To bring up the whole story."

The title of Mr. Lin's essay comes from "The Analects of Confucius: Eight Immortals", and the title of the essay "Shao is beautiful and perfect". The second comparison of the title is to lead the meaning of "Shao" in the part of the lecture, "The music of "Shao" demonstrates the prosperity of Da Shun's merits". It does not touch a beautiful word, but from the relationship between the music player and the dancers. Yu Yan wrote about the beauty of Shao Le in both aspects, and buckled the half of the title ""Shao" is so beautiful."

For so many years before Cui Xie traveled, he thought that Shao Le was just a piano tune. When he read the phrase "I heard "Shao" in Qi, I don't know the smell of meat in March", and he never had a sense of substitution. Now that I have read a lot of books, I know that people are watching large-scale musicals on the zero-distance stage. In the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, when there was no internet, no movies, and not many books to read, it is estimated that he could miss it for three months after reading it.

Of course, forget the meaty taste.

He tapped the beat on the table with his fingertips, chanted it several times, and exclaimed: "I read these two sentences from Mr., and I also have the heart to blend in between the words, and I feel tireless in reading."

The husband smiled indifferently and slightly, and pointed to the couplet of the two sentences and said: "These two sentences use the method of splitting the beauty of Shao into the beauty of sound and the beauty of dance. If you change the meaning, For a single topic, add the meaning beyond the topic, either one positive and one negative, or one bright and one dark, echoing each other to explain the topic, but it is impossible to write the topic in one step."

With a flick of your fingertips, you skip the following prose and say: "After mentioning the full text in a one-to-two comparison, you can use three or four prose sentences to point out the title here, so that the article will subtract the topic everywhere, and the upper and lower parts will be integrated, so that it will not be loose. If the entire question has been specified in the entry part, you can skip it."

After the prose, there is a pair of parallel sentences that are similar to the content of the previous two comparisons-this year, it is also called the three-four comparison.

In these two comparisons, the sound of music is better than the song of phoenix and birds, and the dance of nine is better than the beasts. Crudely, the three-to-four ratio is just a one-to-two comparison, and the "Shao" in the title is perfected. However, the phoenix call and the beast rate dance have other meanings in the scriptures, which refers to Of the holy king.

Therefore, these two sentences not only describe the rhythmic dance of music and dance, but also link the previous and the next, and deduct a step forward to write the goodness of music in "Shao".

Mr. Lin shook his head and neck shallowly, silently chanting those two proud works, and then clicked and said: "The ratio of three to four is the backbone of the whole article. It is the backbone of the whole story. It should be transferred from the top half to the bottom half of the topic. It should be smooth and safe. Or use two or three sentences, or use five or six sentences, not too long. After that, use a few prose sentences to continue and go straight to the second half of the question. Five to six can be regarded as a supplement to the three-to-four ratio, and write the meaning of the second half.

"These two sentences are the'combination' in'Qichengzhuanhe', which can carry on the content of the three-four comparison, and can also further clarify the meaning of the question. The beginning of the five-six ratio should begin with a dashed word, and the previous paragraph should be covered with'wei' 'If this' is the reason'; if you don't follow the three-to-four comparison and open up new ideas, use the words'and' condition' or predicate'."

In his essay, it is a continuation of the second competition, starting with "the beauty of the sound". It is still a metaphor from the two aspects of the sound and content, and then it is advanced to explain in depth that the beauty of Shao Le is not only the beauty of music and dance, but also Beauty lies in the virtue of its honesty.

The eight-match article has now finished six-matches, only the last two matches and a prose ending. Seeing the hope for the end of get out of class, Cui Xie rejuvenated, stretched his notebook, and put the tip of the pen on a new page of white paper, waiting to finish memorizing this last point.

Mr. Lin was also a little relaxed, pointing to the contrasting sentence at the end of the article and said: "After the five-six match, the meaning of the essay is almost exhausted, and the seven-to-eight match is the subject again, echoing the full text of the previous article."

The main point of the last two comparisons is to condense, converge and continue, eliciting leisurely thoughts that are endlessly memorable. After all, there is still a big conclusion to be written below, and these two comparisons cannot really be regarded as the end.

"In the past, there were rules that everyone gave up the last two comparisons, but the Cheng Wen that came out after the test last year was the last two comparisons to condense the full text, which led to more thoughts. Shiwen Shiwen is the current article and should be tested. We must follow the latest Chengwen paradigm, and learn only the ideas and writing styles of pre-students' articles, not the outdated structure."

At this point, Mr. Lin’s expression completely dissipated, and he felt like he had finished the lecture. He stood up and stretched his waist. He turned around and said to him: "You can make the big knot as you go. You can use a few sentences here. More than a dozen sentences are okay. You can express your own voice based on the topic, and you don’t have to learn from others."

Cui Xie memorized a piece of paper all over, straightened up his waist, and picked up Mr.'s article to study it seriously.

Mr. Lin circulated twice in the house, healed his muscles and bones. He saw that the sun was rising to mid-heaven, and his belly was slightly rumbling, so he told him: "Let’s talk about it today, and I’ll use this as the topic when I go back today. Write an imitation. I don’t ask you to make a good article right away, as long as the structure is accurate and the sentences are rigorous and neat."

Seeing that Cui Xie had promised happily, he remembered one more thing. He stopped walking and pointed to the collection of Cheng Wenji on the table and said: "Since you can finish "The Collected Works of Liujia", you will also get some contemporary from me in the future. The famous Cheng Wen went back to memorize it, and tasted the rhetoric and context."

Although Cui Xie focused on the "Four Books" these days, he did not write down the ancient texts of the eight great masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties. Every day before going to bed, he would review more than a dozen articles according to the law of forgetting. After he became a habit, he would not be confused about the article. What's more, the eight-part essay has a style here. It is guaranteed to follow the order of breaking the topic, undertaking the topic, starting to talk... to the conclusion, so that the style and rhythm are better than prose.

He found a collection of essays he hadn't read from the table, borrowed it face to face with his husband, and went back to class to study on his own.

At lunch, he took the inkstone and gave him freshly steamed noodle buns and fried chicken, fried pork, red simmered meat, and yellow sprouts stewed tofu. He still stared at the paper with both eyes, and his head was full of contrasts. He pointed to the upper comparison and filled out the comparison sentences carefully. He only broke the buns and dipped them in the soup and put them in his mouth without knowing that he would eat them. Of what.

Confucius heard about "Shao", and he didn't know the smell of meat in March. He was a primary school student who wrote the composition of "Shao", and he didn't even eat it all day. It was easy to perfuse an article, and when I stood up, I found that the cervical spine and lumbar spine were almost broken, and they creaked after a little movement.

He blew the half-dry ink on the paper and rolled up the manuscript paper, thanking him for not having to learn it for the first 20 years. The combat effectiveness of Confucius and Mencius is stronger than that of Lu Xun, Zhu Ziqing, and Lao She when they are tied together. If he had been learning stereotypes since elementary school, he would probably have a prominent lumbar disc before going to university, and he would never have the chance to grow to 1.8 meters.

The author has something to say: The title of the quoted article is "Ziwei is perfect and perfect", the author is Gu Qing, a six-year Jinshi in Hongzhi. The article is in the 19th year of Chenghua, there is no way, so I have to hide the author and content

The writing method of the eight-part essay is mainly based on Gong Duqing’s Appreciation of the Eight-Part Essay
