Prime Minister

Chapter 279
The Qibao Leicha made by the imperial court is fried with sesame seeds, mung beans, arrowroot powder, glutinous rice, red beans, etc., and tea powder.

A bowl of Qibao Leicha entered the bottom of his stomach, Zhang Yue sweated a little, and with a few imperial pastries, he was [-]% full.

Although Zhang Yue still wanted to eat more, he stopped. Eating too much is not good for the next exam.However, I heard that the food given by the palace, including utensils, can be packed and taken away. Anyway, I came here, so there is no need to be polite to the emperor.

Zhang Yue immediately thought that the emperor was at this age, and he still personally inspected the examination room, which showed that he attached great importance to the selection of talents for the country.

When the emperor came to the examination hall in person, which scholar would not be happy, and wanted to show his talents in front of the emperor, so that he could pass this ability to the emperor's family in the future.

After Zhang Yue finished eating, he wrote Tiande Qingming poems.Anyway, it is difficult to produce good poems in the imperial examination, and the hard work is the accumulation of everyone's hard work on weekdays.

When the last question was left, the sun was already westward, and the crown needle on the corona was already pointing to the end. There was not much time left for Zhang Yue for this question.

However, this water is more like Taoism than Fu, and it can be written in prose regardless of format.This saves the effort of buckling the rhyme and the level of the characters.

Without these constraints, what is the format of the treatise?For example, in reading historical records, there is a section of Tai Shigong saying, this is the theory.

In addition, there are Qin Theory and Six Kingdoms Theory. The ancients read Qin Theory, and Song people read Six Kingdoms Theory. They are all good models.

I really don’t know how to write theory, so I just imitate Qin theory and write the Six Kingdoms theory.

But this water is not as good as Tao, so what do you want to talk about?

If it is said that Confucianism and Legalism are a dispute over the line of governance, Zhang Yue is interested in it.

Such an aspiring person who entered the world, Zhang Yue was not very interested in Taoism, such as Huang Lao, who was born in the world.

What is Tao?
This is a very vague concept. If you study it in depth, it will be easy to metaphysics if you are not careful.

Zhang Yue put this water in Taoism, and read it again and again, but he was at a loss.

Zhang Yue changed his mind and thought that since it is an examination question, there must be a way to break it, so it is meaningless to be obsessed with being out of the world and entering the world.

Zhang Yue read the question again. The question can be broken down into three structures: water, almost, and road.

What does it mean?almost mean.

It is said that water is close to Tao, but it is not Tao.But what is the difference between water and Tao?

Thinking of this, candidates from left and right have handed in their papers one after another, and most of them looked relaxed and natural.

Seeing that the sky was getting darker, Zhang Yue couldn't help feeling a little anxious in his heart, and couldn't help but interrupt his thoughts just now.

It took Zhang Yue a lot of effort to refocus on the topic.

The first sentence of the Tao Te Ching is that Dao can be Dao, very Dao.The name can be named, very famous.

Here it is also said that water is inferior to Tao. Is this a contradiction?
No, water is a name, Tao is Tao, and the relationship between the two is like this.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yue suddenly realized that this question is not about how water resembles Tao, but how water does not resemble Tao.

Zhang Yue wrote it down on the scroll immediately.

The Taoist is above all things. He cannot see, hear, or hear. Water is a natural thing that exists in nature. It can be seen, heard, and heard.There is no water in the Tao, so it is called Jiye.

What does this sentence mean?
Just like Confucius said benevolence, what exactly is benevolence?
Confucius said that the benevolent loves others; self-restraint and return to propriety is benevolence; a benevolent man builds up others when he wants to be established, and achieves others when he wants to achieve himself. This is also benevolence.

Then there is some confusion here.

Which one is benevolence?
spouse?Self-denial and return to courtesy?Or do you stand up for others, and reach out to others?
But these three are not real 'ren', but they are all benevolence, which is just the external application of benevolence.

Therefore, the general article must say why water is close to Tao, but it is not Tao.

Water is the outer manifestation of Tao.One is false and one is real.

The first chapter is different from the way, and the next chapter will be easier to write, so what kind of way does water have?

The husband does not fight, so the world cannot compete with him.

The weak overcomes the strong, and the soft overcomes the strong.

Do nothing and do nothing.

These are the characteristics of water body Tao, just like Confucius explained what is benevolence.

After writing this, Zhang Yue felt that it was almost over, and before he knew it, the sky was getting dark, and the left and right papers were almost done.

But Zhang Yue looked at it and found that after writing so much, the minimum number of words is [-] words, and there are still dozens of words missing.

At this moment, Zhang Yue couldn't help but feel a little anxious, the meaning in the article is almost the same, but it's still missing, can't we "water" go down?How to do?
As for the distance, Wang Kui also got up to hand in the paper at this time.

He had already finished writing, but in order not to let others doubt, he still insisted on handing in the paper until the end.

Although this article on water and Tao has stumped him a little, it is not a big problem.

Not only did he consciously 'bet the questions' perfectly in this palace exam, but he also felt comfortable during the exam, if nothing unexpected happened...

Wang Kui glanced at Zhang Yue who was thinking hard in the corridor from a distance, and a sneer appeared on his lips.

"Zhang Duzhi seems to be running out of fuel and lacking in talent and thinking. It's really pitiful. It's hard for you to compete with me this time. A mere girl, how can such means disturb my heart?"

After speaking, Wang Kui smiled, then handed over the scroll respectfully to the examiner with both hands, and left Chongzheng Hall.

Zhang Yue is also extremely anxious at this moment, but he knows that Yue cannot be confused at this moment.

In addition to the well-regulated performance of poetry, the theory of endowment has its own performance beyond its strength, but this theory still lacks a strong enough conclusion.

Zhang Yue saw that there were already examiners urging candidates to hand in the papers. At that moment, Zhang Yue somehow thought of the scene when he first entered Taixue.

He used that debate with Mr. Hu Yuan in class.

Not being able to understand the body is too much, and not being able to use it is not enough.

Then it means that it is not enough, it is close to it, and it is even worse.

For example, what is benevolence?
spouse?Self-denial and return to courtesy?If you want to be established, you will establish others, and if you want to achieve yourself, you will achieve others?
These three are not benevolence, but they are all part of benevolence, so which one is closer to benevolence?
I secretly think that the word 'lover' is closer to benevolence!
Therefore, everything in the world has the nature of Tao, stone has the nature of Tao, and bamboo has the nature of Tao, but Lao Tzu does not talk about stones or bamboo, but only says that water is more than Tao, and his meaning is similar to loving people.

The reason why this one stroke falls into the whole article is cohesive, like a spring that sprinkles the world at a glance, and finally turns into rain and collects into the spring.

To be able to write such an article is enough in this life.

After Zhang Yue finished writing, he closed his eyes tightly and suddenly felt that I was the only one in the world.

At this moment, the editor Zhao Yan walked up to Zhang Yue and looked up and down at the candidate who was sleeping while writing with his hands behind his back, showing a suspicious look on his face. The name on the roll of this life.

Zhang Yue?

Zhao Yan couldn't help being taken aback, isn't this the examinee who was given the paper by the official?
Zhao Yan had read Zhang Yue's article after the exam, so he knew about this person. Why is this young man acting like this in front of him now?
