Jinyi champion

Chapter 31 Off topic
Sure enough, it was Lu Bing, so needless to say, the previous "Lu Dianzhan" was his father, Lu Song, who is really a general, and you are so young that your bones are so strange...

"Boy surnamed Lu, we are here to be selected as companions. You are so lucky that you want to be a book boy? Are you willing to be lowly?" Mr. Jing's thinking was lively, and he immediately noticed the difference between Lu Bing and others.

"Um... uh... this..."

Lu Bing was too young to answer such tricky questions.

Zhu Hao smiled and said, "He can be whatever he wants, don't make things difficult for him...the next exam is about to begin."

Immediately, Zhu Hao pointed to the middle-aged people who came out from the corridor in front of them. If nothing else, they should be the examiners of the next exam.

Zhang Zuo didn't show up. One of the examiners who came out this time, Zhu Hao, knew him. It was Sui Gongyan who had communicated with Mr. Lu who was suspected of being Tang Bohu. He was studying under his name, so it was reasonable for him to be the second examiner.

As for the one who came out with Sui Gongyan, Zhu Hao actually recognized it. It was Jiang Lun who got a little smug after being flattered by him when he signed up.

"Okay, don't talk, go back to your seats."

As soon as Jiang Lun came, he called the child back to the desk where the written test was just now.

Zhu Hao and Mr. Jing still gathered at the same table.

Originally, there were some vacant seats at the side, which could be shared evenly, and as Mr. Jing, he could occupy a table to himself, but he seemed to intend to compete with Zhu Hao, so he refused to leave anyway.

Zhu Hao didn't bother to pay attention.

……

……

All children are in place.

Jiang Lun looked around and said with a smile: "It seems that you all performed very well in the first exam. Being able to stay here shows that you have good knowledge."

Is it good to just recite a few lines of "The Analects of Confucius"?
This Jiang Lunting will put a high hat on people!
Jiang Lun continued: "The second exam will be given by Mr. Sui, the tutor of this mansion, and Mr. Changshou Juren. You should listen carefully. If you can pass this exam, you will be one step closer to becoming a tutor in the palace."

Although it was just a coping scene, Zhu Hao still heard some key information from it.

Originally, Zhu Hao didn't know how many exams there were in this selection, but according to Jiang Lun, this is not the last round, there will be at least one more round later, and the examiners will most likely have to change at that time.Zhu Hao hoped that Zhu San and Zhu Si would come out to choose companion reading together, then his chances of success would be greatly increased.

"Let Mr. Sui come up with a question." After Jiang Lun finished speaking, he looked at Sui Gongyan, who was already sitting on the chair, which meant that you can start.

Zhu Hao lowered his head.

From the simple relationship with Sui Gongyan before, he knew that this person was narrow-minded, and if he found out that he should be elected here, something might happen.

Mr. Lu made it clear that I was his disciple, but Sui Gong said that he would take the disciple of a person with higher knowledge and reputation than himself to his side?
Sui Gongyan didn't seem to notice Zhu Hao's existence, so he took a sip from his teacup, and said in a deep and powerful voice, "Students of Confucianism must not only study the scriptures, but also learn from the past..."

Zhu Hao understood immediately.

The topic is definitely off.

really.

"Then I will tell you about my China's history of more than two thousand years from the pre-Qin period to the present."

All should choose the boy to stare and discuss history?
The topic is obviously beyond the outline, and it also deviates from the theme of the accompanying reading. Isn't it agreed that whoever is more knowledgeable will stay as an accompanying reading?The problem is that the imperial examination does not test these.

Sui Gongyan seemed to be unaware of the confusion in the hearts of the children present, and circled his right index finger, "Write your names on the eyebrows of the exam paper."

This remark made the children puzzled by Zhanger Monk. Is this a history test?

Jiang Lun hurriedly said: "You can write as soon as you write, and you will know whose paper it is when you look back. If you write slowly, you will have no time to answer the questions later."

Jiang Lun is warm-hearted, and Zhu Hao can see that this guy's status in the palace is not high, so he tried every means to show his existence... Dude, you are very inferior!

"It is said that in the pre-Qin period, many sages emerged in the land of China. Since Shennong established the tripod, the people of China began to live a life of men farming and women weaving. Later, they experienced several sage monarchs, namely Yao, Shun and Yu. Flooding, one of them said, 'Marry a wife for a day, and keep the door private', which monarch is he talking about?"

Speaking of this, Sui Gongyan stopped, picked up the tea bowl and took a sip.

Needless to say, this is the first question.

If this question is answered by an adult who is full of poetry and books, it may not be difficult, but the subjects in front of him are a group of children who are generally seven or eight years old and have only read books for a year or two... It is almost like listening to heavenly books.

After listening, you may not know that the topic is out!
"Marry a wife for a day, stay in the family without selfishness", this question is too childish for Zhu Hao, isn't this the Dayu who "passed through the house three times but never entered" on the way to control the water?
But you can’t write Dayu, you have to write "Yu". The examiners have said that this person will come out of Yao, Shun and Yu. Zhu Hao wrote it in one stroke, and the young master Jing on the side answered it without any suspense.

But looking at the students present, less than half of them were able to write on paper with a pen.

Sui Gongyan finished drinking tea, regardless of whether the children finished their answers, he continued to tell: "Later, through the Xia and Shang dynasties, there were such sage monarchs as Shang Tang, but at the end of the Shang Dynasty, the people were in dire straits. Establish."

They were all waiting for the questions to come out, but the exam questions did not appear here.

"The Zhou Dynasty was passed down to King You, and the beacon fire played with the princes, and it was destroyed in the Western Zhou Dynasty... In the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, the princes and states arose, first there was the Spring and Autumn Period, and then there was the Warring States. Nobility and inferiority, once cut off from the law, the kindness of relatives and venerables will be cut off." Which one of the hundreds of scholars are you talking about?"

The second question is thrown.

The children present were dumbfounded again.

We haven't even fully understood Confucianism, you come up with a hundred schools of thought?
But Zhu Hao thought about it in his mind: "Could it be that Sui Gongyan advocated Legalism? King Xing will call a Juren who advocates Legalism to teach his son... interesting."

Pick up the pen, and the word "Legalism" is simply written.

This time Mr. Jing thought for a long time before writing, but he was obviously not very sure. This question was a bit beyond the outline for him.

"At the end of the Warring States Period, the King of Qin swept away all wastelands and Liuhe, and made great achievements that will last forever. However, he did not tyrannize the Qin Dynasty until the second generation. Ding, the great Han established the prestige of China, there was Wen Jing in the past, and the rule of Xiaoxuan in the later, at that time, which emperor implemented the strategy of "removing a hundred schools of thought and enshrining the six classics"?"

The third question comes out.

Zhu Hao replied: Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

"At the end of the Western Han Dynasty, there was the chaos of Xinmang and Gengshi. The green forests and red eyebrows were demons. Fortunately, Guangwu established the country and continued the Han Dynasty for another two hundred years."

"However, at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, all heroes rose together, and there was an owl who led the emperor to order the princes. However, in the southwest, there was still a royal family that was peaceful. After some conclusions, may I ask which one is it?"

Fourth question.

Don't take evil for small things, and don't take good things for nothing.

"Then the lord was in a daze and failed to decide the Central Plains. Wei destroyed Han, Jin destroyed Wei, and Sima's benevolence did not cultivate, so that the Central Plains were completely lost. The barbarians messed up our Huaxia. However, Emperor Yangdi conquered Goguryeo three times, abused the power of the people, and was so extravagant that Emperor Gaozu of the Tang Dynasty raised troops in Taiyuan and established the foundation of the Tang Dynasty for three hundred years."

"Tang Taizong cultivated benevolence, and Wei Zheng once quoted that those who use boats and water to remonstrate with the king, which sentence is it?"

Fifth question.

The emperor is a boat, and the common people are water. The water carries the boat, and the water capsizes the boat.

……

……

Halfway through the question, Zhu Hao didn't feel any embarrassment when he answered.

In fact, as long as one is familiar with Chinese history, these are not difficult problems, but the problem is that the test takers in front of them are all naive, and it is extremely difficult to acquire knowledge these days. As long as no one tells them, they cannot learn by themselves.

Zhu Hao also grasped some rules from Sui Gongyan's questioning.

It sounds like Legalism, but it is Confucianism in essence. It seems dialectical to connect the rise and fall of a dynasty with whether the emperor practiced "benevolence and virtue", but it is actually all subjective.

"Even at the end of the Tang Dynasty, Zhu Wen usurped the Tang Dynasty, the chaos of the Five Dynasties, and then there was the Mutiny of Song Gaozu Chen Qiao, who re-established Huaxia, but brothers fought each other, the golden chamber was suspicious, the candle shadow and the ax sounded, and the throne fell aside..."

There is no question here.

But Zhu Hao heard the problem.

The throne falls...

Is this a metaphor that my Emperor Taizong of the Ming Dynasty did not come from the right path?

How dare you say such nonsense?
"...The shame of Jingkang is the shame of China. Song Ting lived in Jiangnan for more than [-] years. Tatars rose from the grasslands and overthrew China. Kyushu was in trouble. The building of the country will collapse. There are still loyal ministers and righteous men who do not forget their righteousness. Duke Wen Zhonglie When I passed Lingdingyang, there were poems expressing my feelings, please write them down.”

Sixth question.

After a hard encounter, there are few stars around.The mountains and rivers are broken and the wind is blowing, and the life experience is ups and downs and the rain beats the flats.Anxious beachheads say fear, and sigh alone in the ocean.Since ancient times, no one has died in life, and he has kept his heart to reflect the history.

"Meng Yuan ruled our Han people with cruelty and innocence. My Taizu emperor raised troops in Wu, and was assisted by loyal ministers and good generals. He drove out the Tartars and settled China..."

Speaking of this, Zhu Hao really wanted to hear Sui Gongyan's evaluation of this dynasty, but Sui Gongyan was very shrewd, and stopped abruptly at this point: "...Okay, that's all, present your writings, and put them aside Wait for the result."
