According to the regular imperial examination, whether it is the county examination, the township examination, or the general examination, it should be the same.For example, the "Four Books" has three questions, which are called "righteousness", and the Five Classics has four questions, which are called "Zhiyi". These seven articles must strictly follow the stereotyped format.

The distinction between righteousness and restraint, the former is the words of a sage, you are not qualified to restrain it, you can only explain his righteousness, while the latter requires your own understanding and feelings, so it is restraint.

It's for the first game.

In the second session, there are arguments, judgments, edicts, edicts, and lists.Choose one of the five subjects as the second exam.To put it simply, theory refers to Liwen and essays. Articles such as "On the Six Kingdoms" are "On".

Judgment is a verdict with more than a hundred characters. There are five examinations in total. It is in the form of parallel prose. It is necessary to explain the situation within more than a hundred characters. Where there is a violation of the law, the legal basis for handling opinions is put forward.It mainly examines the candidates' understanding of the legal system of the country.

Imperial edicts and edicts are to write imperial edicts in Tianjia style in the tone of the emperor, which is an essential skill in Hanlin.Biao is a form of official document, and the Shangbiao in operas is just like this, and it can also be called Shangshu.

The third session is the ancient "Policy Question" that has been used in modern civil service examinations. Of course, the civil service examination is called "Shen Lun", so I won't repeat it.

Up to now, although the three exams are theoretically equivalent, because the weight of stereotyped essays has been rising, the proportion of the last two exams has shrunk greatly in the late Jiajing period, and the emphasis on the first exam is particularly prominent.

At present, when it comes to the level of the county examination, it is much more relaxed. If the examination needs to be completed within one day, only the two eight-legged essays in the "Four Books" will be tested.

Xu Xiu carefully opened the paper. There were more than ten pages of paper inside. The paper was of good quality. Each page was divided into fourteen lines, each line could contain eighteen characters, and they were all separated by red lines. There was also blank draft paper. Several sheets.

The first big question to open the question paper is the chapter of "Learning and learning from time to time" in the Analects of Confucius.The second topic is "Mencius" "Weeping in the courtyard, but the beloved is unknown, and Shi Shi comes from outside."

Xu Xiu breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the questions were all big ones. What he was most afraid of was making some small questions and cutting them off. This is common in the later quizzes.

Just because there are only so many characters in the Four Books and Five Classics. After hundreds of years of examinations, in the Qing Dynasty, no matter which big question there was a standard model essay, it was very serious that you could pass it by memorizing it to death. Therefore, there are countless questions at the level of scholar. .

The situation in the Ming Dynasty was not serious, but it was not without it. Therefore, in the examinations at the level of scholars, many of them used small questions, intercepted questions, and the like.

For example, for these two questions, the word "xueer" is cut off as an exam question. If you encounter it, congratulations, the difficulty has risen to a higher level. Even if you know the meaning of learning while learning, you can't have it in your composition The last few words exist, and the meaning of the last few words must be indicated, which is a test of the examinee's ability.

These two questions are not very problematic, especially when you learn and learn from time to time. As the first question to solve the stereotyped style, it is the easiest to solve.

After brewing for a while, Xu Xiu patted her cheek, and began to compose on the draft paper.

Breaking the title: The sage discusses learning, but he does not stop until he succeeds.

Proceedings: Those who learn from time to time, never stop...

Speaking: It means: a scholar, so reincarnation is also...

There are two parts: "Poems" and "Books", which I have learned, not just related to their texts...

Proposed title: This is how I am used to it, I know it is good for learning, I am happy to play, and I live in peace...

The second section of middle school: People don't know as much as they do, and they don't feel stunned. I know that they are learned, and they are satisfied with the middle, and don't wait for the outside.

Middle two small stocks: Although people don't know it, but I alone know the depth of self-satisfaction, and there is a day for the return of morality. ...

Shu Ergu: As for this, it is almost so-called to act with virtue, to practice it when you are happy, and to disobey it if you are worried, and you can learn from it... Scholars sincerely think about it with my words, isn't it the same?

An hour has passed, this short eight-legged essay of hundreds of words really took your hard work, Xu Xiu couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Sage, sage, I want to write a new article for your short sentence."

How many people have white hair and gray hair in the exam, all their teeth have fallen out, and they can't even distinguish the grass from the grass, all because of this fame and fortune.

Instead of thinking too much, Xu Xiu reviewed the broken questions repeatedly. Stereotype essays are very important to break the questions. I heard from Qian Fu that many examiners in the quiz often only look at the broken questions. If the broken questions are not good, they will not do it again Go and see, and directly give the result of dismissal.

It is not difficult to imagine that the imperial court stipulated that only the county magistrate was allowed to review the examination papers by himself, and no local Confucian professors were allowed to help grade the examination papers. If the more than 700 examination papers had to be read from beginning to end one by one, the workload would be quite heavy.It is better to solve the problem.

The confirmation is correct, there is no deviation from the topic, and there are no typos. Although the cursive script is used, it is rather sloppy, but it is just a draft paper, and it is not a problem.

Picking up the question paper of Mencius's questions and looking at it carefully, Xu Xiu, who had a quick brain, carefully wrote according to the previous draft format.

Breaking the title: Qi women are ugly to their husbands, but Qi people are not self-ugly.

……

At noon, Xu Xiu shook her wrist slightly, feeling a little sore, and finally finished the second question.Before transcribing, he took out pancakes, some were hard, but better than nothing, some would be good to eat, don't you see some candidates are still greedy when they see others eating, and pay attention to the surrounding situation while eating.

Many people can try to write such questions, and it is not difficult to understand, but whether the writing is good or bad is a problem, and some people fainted because of nervousness, and were sent out by the government officials. Xu Xiu continued to lament the ruthlessness of the imperial examination.

After a full belch, he cleaned up the table carefully, and the next one was a very critical time.

This step is called "transcribing the truth". Xu Xiu admires someone who can write directly on the formal test paper. It can already be called a genius, which is beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Because the requirements for this scroll are very strict, it can only be written in regular script or Taige style, and cannot be altered, typos, typos, or fakes.You have to punctuate your own articles yourself. Of course, the ancient punctuation is to draw a circle at the end of a sentence and not start a new line.

Xu Xiu carefully transcribed the authenticity. After finishing the first chapter, someone had already started to hand in the paper. At this time, the sun was slightly slanting to the west, and it was still dazzling. When the paper was handed in, the county magistrate would read it as soon as he arrived and give some comments on the spot.

Xu Xiu was not in a hurry, because Qian Fu told him viciously that you are not allowed to hand in the papers for the top ten. After he inquired, he got a dumbfounding answer, just because if the top ten went out, there would be drums and gongs at the door When you see him off, he will follow you all the way to your home to ask for a reward, but he is unwilling or does not have the money to pay, so he calls it the world's decline.

After transcribing the two articles, he carefully pasted his name on the secret paper issued earlier. Although the county examination is often not rigorous, it is still a formality and needs to be done, otherwise he will be dismissed directly without mercy.

"Well, let me take a look, let me take a look." Li Song held the folding fan against the corner of his mouth, spread the test paper on the desk, and circled it with a fine brush stained with vermilion ink in one hand. He felt that this sentence was good, so he drew it. a circle.

"If you want to be a scholar, you must learn from time to time. Well, this question is clear, very good." After speaking, Li Song continued to read, nodded at last, and wrote a Chinese character in the upper left corner.It is especially inappropriate to take it on the spot.

He smiled and said, "Thank you, teacher." The examiner's point was like a teacher in ancient times.So he answered.

"Don't laugh, it's ugly, haha." Li Song knocked himself on the head with a fan and joked.

This person is Xu Hui.

Seeing that more than a dozen people had already handed in the papers, including Xu Hui, Xu Xiu breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the draft paper and the main paper, and walked towards the county magistrate.

"Say hello to the parents and officers." Submitted it respectfully.

"Oh, it's another doll, let me take a look." Li Song smiled brightly, and couldn't help saying in a good mood when he saw two teenage dolls in a row.

"A sage's theory of learning can only be achieved if he keeps going. Well, it's not bad, it's a hidden breakthrough." Li Song drew a circle to express his approval.

"I think it's a little strange, little baby." Li Song laughed after reading both articles, drawing many circles but not getting it right.

Xu Xiu felt remorse for a while, and she must have unknowingly used a little biased discussion, and said to Li Song with a bit of regret: "I hope the parents and officials will forgive me."

Li Song was amused seeing the tasteful expression on his face, since he was only in his twenties and his temperament was not very mature, he said with a smile: "How old are you this year?"

Xu Xiu thought that she would fall in the county test and couldn't help but sadly said: "13 years old."

Li Song said with a smile in his eyes: "It's too early for your article to be selected. Go back and study hard. The county test takes two exams every three years. This county is also a newcomer. Next time, I will take you."

Fuck you, although Xu Xiu also knows that the imperial examination is not so easy to pass, but her starting point is not the teenage dolls here, and the foundation of the library for more than ten years, after several months of strengthening, cannot After passing the county examination, I couldn't help but play tricks and pretend to be sad: "I hope my parents and officials will have mercy, and I will do my best to be filial."

Every emperor in the Ming Dynasty had the word filial piety in their posthumous titles. From this, we can know that the Ming Dynasty established the country with filial piety, and it became a big problem if something was labeled as filial piety in the Ming Dynasty.

Looking through his roster, Li Song couldn't help but feel a pain in his stomach, and he didn't mean to depose him, but he played this kind of tricky, interesting doll, and said: "If you have a couplet, then Let you pass, listen carefully, my Shanglian is a late bloomer."

Xu Xiu relaxed after hearing this. There are similar pairs in many classical novels, and she said seriously: "The long ones give way to the short."

"You're right, so I'll take you." Li Song rubbed his stomach, shook his head and smiled.

He conveniently wrote a Chinese character on his test paper.

"You go."

"Thank you teacher."
