Transmigrating to the Ming Dynasty’s Imperial Examination

Before the entrance examination, Zhao Shixiong and a few pupils from his classmates held tightly to Cui Xie, trying to get his double-case leader's exam luck. Both Pengyan and Zhao's accompanying long-term followers crowded them with nowhere to stay, so they had to wander outside to prepare the basket for them.

The rules of the hospital test are stricter than those of the previous two tests. Candidates are only allowed to bring one long-eared test basket into the arena, put some pen, ink and food, and not many others. Even the inkstone is prepared by the mansion. On the day of the examination, the school officials of the prefecture will accompany Xuezheng to roll the name in front of the hall. When a student comes, he must be recognized by the county instructor to ensure that there is no substitute for the examination.

When Cui Xie entered the door in response to the number, he felt that the eyes of the examiners in the full house were all on him, especially the senior scholar, who looked at him from head to toe, as if to put him in his eyes. He was a little suspicious that the Confucian scholar had secretly accused his office of cheating. The academician stared at him like this, quickly watching his nose and nose, and holding the paper into the shed without squinting.

It wasn't until the exam questions were posted and his energy focused on the questions that he completely threw Master Xuezheng's gaze behind his head.

As usual, the first scene is a four-book meaning and a five-class meaning. The title of the four books is a cross-cutting question. The two sentences in Chapter 4 of Mencius·Teng Wengong Zhangjushang are the two sentences "an animal is compelling, but it is close to an animal".

The chapter from which this question comes from is about Xu Xing, a farmer’s master, who cultivates and weaves himself. Chen Xiang learns from him and asks Mencius in the words of Xu Zi: Teng Wengong’s name is Xianjun, why use people’s food to fill the treasury? Can not eat as hard as the people.

Mencius explained to him the principle of governing the world: people in the world are divided into "adults" and "little people", "adults" are worried about labor and ruling the world, while "little people" manage the work of farming and weaving to support "adults." , One person cannot be the world's affairs at the same time. At the time of Tang Yu, the world was in a prehistoric age, and the saint was worried about the people's livelihood and had no time to farm himself. Isn't the king of the three generations wise?

Naturally not, but the roles of adults and villains are different. Adults worry about governing the world and educating the people; while the villain knows ethics and loyalty after he has enough food and clothing to support himself and worship adults. This is the way to flourish.

So although the title only writes about people and animals, there should be a little bit of concern for adults in the article, and support for the people.

Once the general idea and key points have been sorted out, it is necessary to start with the sentence where the topic is located and sort out the broken topic.

The sentence on the title is "Animals are pushing people", it is that when Tang Yao was reigning, the world was still in a prehistoric era. Yao recommended Shun to take over the rule of the world, and Shun ordered Yi to set fire to the mountains to drive away the animals and Yu to dredge the Jiuhe in order to secure the Jiuzhou.

And the following sentence "It is close to a beast" is that after the world was settled, Houji taught the people to grow up, so that the people can live in peace and comfort, but they have lost their education. The saint worried that the people only knew about enjoyment but not ethics, and would be like beasts, so he made the contract a situ and taught the people the righteousness of human relations.

The meanings of these two sentences are irrelevant, but only describe the difficult conditions of the ancient people, not from the original intention of the saint. Therefore, when doing this question, you can’t use the front and back sentence to solve the problem like the "Spring province ploughing to make up for the deficiencies, for the princes." ", "Do not be close to animals" to solve the problem.

The names of people and things in the original sentence must not appear when breaking the question, so the word "birds" in the original question can be replaced by "things". The original text talks about not only animals, but also floods, so floods cannot be avoided in the text. When breaking the topic, floods and animals must be combined into one category—that is, things that endanger the survival of the people. And when breaking the second half of the problem from the perspective of "people should not be close to animals", we should also seize the "hazard" so that the above and below the problem will respond accordingly and become a whole.

While thinking about it, Cui Xie studied ink in the bluestone inkstone sent out in the examination room.

The ink strips slipped frequently in the inkstone, and it didn't work well, so it took a long time to develop a half pond of ink. However, in order to prevent children from cheating, they are uniformly allocated such crude inkstones. He has practiced riding and shooting and martial arts. He has dozens of kilograms of strength on his arms. Those weak scholars who usually don't even get out of the door may not even be able to polish the ink.

He murmured silently, and his pen tip was slightly dipped in precious ink, and he wrote on the draft paper, "Those who are harmed by things should be harmed by people's hearts."

Breaking the topic should be based on breaking the mind. The meaning behind these sentences is that if the heart of the human is lost to enlightenment, it is easy to rest and work, although there are saints to disperse the animals and calm the world, the people cannot live in peace.

After the problem is broken, the problem is to be undertaken. To solve the problem is to solve the problem in the dark, and it is to be harmonious, but the problem is to be accepted brightly and neatly. When this sentence is reached, there is no need to find any words to refer to the characters in the original question. I directly took the word "animals". According to the key point of "reverse destruction is the rightful inheritance, unity destruction means division", to undertake the "human heart harm" in the destruction question. "It means to initiate the harm of animals and animals, and people should not approach the argument of animals.

"Madam is not a beast and animal husbandry. It's already worrying to be pressing, but the situation is close again?"

After the question is submitted, a sentence of "original question" should be used to quote the above of the question. The above is what Mencius told Chen Xiang before the rise of the sage of Tang Yu, "there are things about adults, there are things about villains". The villain is a company, and if you are not at ease, you may endanger the world.

The saint of the prehistoric world, Die Xing, was all to protect the people.

After that, I will re-subscribe the topic with the one-to-two comparison. First, I will talk about the "Animals compelling people" in the first half of the topic: the sentence is like "The saints continue to come out" in the life of Yao and Shun, and the mountains are burned to drive away the animals; The way of heaven rises and replaces, because Shun resides in fire virtue, Yao resides in water virtue, and the heaven will order fire virtue to replace water virtue. Therefore, Yao Chan is located behind Shun to benefit the mountains and the beasts run away, and can no longer harm the people.

After that, I will "propose the topic" with one sentence, pointing out that the first half of the topic is forced by animals to harm people, and then take the second half of the second to pass on, from the animals that do not need to be taught but punish people have to teach, leading to the next topic "It's close to a beast."

Because the second two comparisons are not thoroughly discussed, the function words at the beginning of the second two use the word "wei", which compares animals and humans, and pushes the argument of the second two comparisons a step forward. It is time for people and animals to be settled. nature. Treating animals as living in the mountains and forests should not approach and endanger people, and the demonstrator—the villain mentioned by Mencius—should also be content to work and weave.

The last two comparisons are the center of the whole discussion. It takes a lot of brain power to write these two rows of long sentences in a comfortable and powerful way. Just as Cui Xie wanted to close his eyes and rest, when he looked back, he suddenly saw that the academic officer was patrolling from the right side of the examination shed. His eyes were lifted from other people's papers and were hitting his eyes.

His heart aroused, and he immediately became energetic, his eyes refocused on the curly face, and the writing was also opened up, and he wrote two small notes of the beam: still beasts and beasts are compared to humans, and beasts tend to water and fear fire compared to the villain It's so easy and bad. When this sentence is written, there is even a big knot-to make the saint think about it, and then he can take care of the topic.

When Dai Yushi came on tour, Cui Xie didn't dare to raise his head, and wrote carefully one by one. He only hoped that Xuezheng saw that he was so serious about drafting drafts and quickly believed that he was a good student who did not cheat. Leave with confidence.

He slowly wrote the last word, and Master Xuezheng finally moved. Unexpectedly, it was not to start, but to reach out and pick up the draft, and whispered: "Don't you remember it, write the draft silently on the paper, I will take this one first."

Cui Xie raised his head in surprise, but Dai Yushi turned around and said indifferently: "It's good to write, and you can't perfuse the next question!"

He rolled up the draft paper and went to the field leisurely, leaving Cui Xie alone and facing the blank roll of paper. An officer from behind came over to refill the water for him, winked quietly, and nodded at him.

You are still very important to you, so you don’t need your money if you drink water.

Cui Xie mistakenly thought that he meant "Master Ti Xue is very optimistic about your article, and he didn't come to find your fault." He felt relieved, and hurriedly found out some broken silver for him, took a sip of hot water, and continued to deliberate. Poetry title.

The practice of the hospital examination is that the great master looks at the papers alone, and whoever he sees is taken. Dai Ren took Cui Xie's manuscript and went back to sit in the hall and read it several times, only to find that his style was slightly different from that of the official test: he did not abide by Shengmo so much, he had all the classics everywhere, and his words were his own words; the writing was more free and easy, and more It tends to be majestic and overwhelming in ancient style.

He called the Qian'an County Instructor and asked, "Are the papers for this student's county exam? Is his essay in the same style? Turn it around for me, and I want to compare it."

The instructor looked at the roll and replied respectfully: "It's similar to the style of this article. He has been instructed by the magistrate of the county in the past, and he is good at integrating ancient Chinese into the contemporary." He couldn't help but say a good thing for him: "But The format of the article is good."

Dai Yushi didn't want to find faults. He just listened to the instructor saying that his article was guided by the Qi county magistrate. He remembered the clear and simple travel notes in the "Official Anthology of Qi Zhiyuan". There is too much difference between these two articles. Qi Daling was written by a 16-year-old Wenxiu boy. Instead, this article looks like an old man with a heavy hand."

The instructor dared not criticize Shangguan, and just stood by and listened.

Dai Ren said with a smile. He looked at the ink scroll in his hand and said: "The style of speech is not elegant enough, but the discussion is vertical and horizontal, and the turning point is strange. When you look at him, he writes about animals, sometimes people, and sometimes sages... his momentum is like a mountain. Duan Yunlian, sentence-by-line with the first chapter, seamlessly connected up and down, it is a rare article that does not use words, but uses text to suppress others."

The instructor figured out what he meant, and asked with a bit of joy: "Does an adult value this student?"

Dai Ren said, "I would also like to accept him as a student. It is a pity that I will retire from the post of superintendent next year, and he is going to be transferred to the county school.

Among the students enrolled in the hospital, the first 80% are generally assigned to the county, and the last 20% are staying in the government. Being able to be assigned to the county school means that it is not only necessary to take him, but also the top ranking. Such good students who can compose and have the hope of the imperial examination are also what the second school of the county government is striving for. If they can fall into the county, they will get the middle township and the examination in the future, which is their academic achievements!

The instruction happily got up and bowed his hand to Dai Ren: "The official thanked Master Xuedao for his support on behalf of this student!"

Dai Ren smiled and asked him to go back to prepare the county test papers. He pressed the draft on the table and continued to patrol the field.

There are no large imperial examination counties in Yongping Prefecture. The more than one hundred new students recorded by the government, plus the child students who were not taken in previous years, and the military sanitation for sending their membership, are still less than two thousand.

The test shed was newly built in Yongping Prefecture, which can accommodate two to three thousand people. This time, he took all the candidates from Liuzhou County and the First Bathroom for the same test. The test room was still empty. Some people whispered and cheated. Know at a glance. He patrolled inside, dropped a few people, and scanned all the Tongsheng's drafts, and he had a bottom...

Seeing that a little ternary was about to be born under his own hands, Dai Tixue felt very happy, and wrote a letter to his fellow countryman, and told him calmly: "I got a talent in Yongping Mansion."
