Chapter 133
"What does it mean to enlighten your father and son?"

"That's what you heard," Mu Yao raised the corners of his mouth, and said in a proud tone, "My wife's knowledge is far higher than that of a certain person!"

After hearing this, Liu and Lu turned their heads in disbelief, "Sister-in-law is so talented, Brother Qi Guang is so lucky!"

Being called Mrs. Sister-in-law by two people who are older than herself, Su Dai's whole body is not well.

Mu Yao saw it, and immediately made a rescue, "Brother Zhiyuan, Brother Boya, I'm a few years younger than you, just call me Biao."

"So good!"

The two wanted to befriend each other, so they immediately changed their address, "Qi Guang, brother and sister."

"Hi, brothers!"

Su Dai greeted again.

"Sister and sister, Qi Guang said that you are very knowledgeable, can I ask you some questions about your studies?"

"Teaching exam?"

"No, the two of us can't even compare with Qi Guang, let alone test you."

Su Dai's mouth twitched.

Are these two serious?

It's okay anyway, after a moment of contemplation, she agreed, "What do you want to ask?"

"It's a sentence from "The Analects of Confucius. Tabor": If it is swaying, the people are incompetent; if it is towering, it has success, and if it is brilliant, it has articles."

After listening, Su Dai asked suspiciously, "Is this question difficult?"

"It's pretty standard," Mu Yao guessed, "but it's just like this, it's even more difficult to stand out."

"That's it," Liu Zhiyuan smiled wryly, "the teacher has been betting on this question every year, but I have never passed the government test. I didn't take it to heart, and I didn't ask for a deep understanding when I did the question. The dog's head is bloody."

Lu Boya added at the right time, "I even slapped my hands and drove them home to reflect.

The two of us came to relax today, but we were really bored. "

Su Dai and Mu Yao looked at each other, both of them sympathized with them.

With a light cough, she explained, "These two sentences mean that the praise and admiration for Yao has reached the point where no article can describe it.

To solve this problem, we must first praise the ancient sages and sages, whose benevolence is like the sky, their knowledge is like a god, their pursuit is like the sun, and their hope is like clouds.

Then explain the merits one by one, and suggest from the following aspects: Wenzhiwugong, promoting talents and appointing talents, community farming and mulberry. "

After a pause, Su Dai said the key point, "It's not enough, it needs to be sublimated. The imperial examination is to select talents for the country. We must link these with the current situation, talk about your views on the current dynasty, and show your dedication to the court." determination."

Scholars are mostly noble, even if they pursue fame and fortune, they will not show it.

At first hearing Su Dai's straightforward words that were almost rude, both Liu and Lu scratched their noses and dared not answer.

Mu Yao was thoughtful, "Most scholars have only been exposed to the Four Books and Five Classics before the county exam. They don't have enough experience, and their knowledge is not that far-reaching, so they don't know what to do."

In other words, in more common terms: no flattering.

Even if they know the source of the test questions, they can't quote the classics. If they blatantly reveal their pursuit of fame and fortune, they will be directly labeled as "fascinating".

However, do the examiners really hate being flattered?
No, they just hate that this person's flattery is not good enough, it's too blatant and out of style.

Mu Yao realized it!

In the imperial examination, knowledge is very important, but being a person is equally important.

It is best for the article to not only show the arrogance of the literati, but also make the court feel that he is obedient and easy to use.

It sounds contradictory, but the reality is so fucking!
What Mu Yao said was cryptic, but Liu and Lu have been in school for many years, and the ones they deal with the most are scholars who are twisted and twisted, and they know the meaning of the words without using their heads.

The two were dumbfounded, and then immediately looked at Mu Yao and his wife with admiration, "Qi Guang, brother and sister, you understand well!"

These words, the master and the teaching instructions have never said, and they dare not even remind them, for fear of ruining their reputation.

And they are also ignorant and don't understand much.

No wonder the ranking was so low in the county test last time, it's really not wronged.

Alas, I still don't realize enough!

No, it is not enough knowledge!

"In addition to these, there must be some taboos." Su Dai continued to explain, "Don't easily define the right or wrong of something in policy theory, and don't use the past to satirize the present, let alone try to figure out the preferences of the superiors."

"Siblings..." Liu Zhiyuan looked like a concubine, "The last time I took the government exam, I used an allusion to satirize the inaction of some officials in the dynasty."

Sorry for the first time!

If no one points it out today, this year's government test will be like a halberd, and it will take another three years.

After reacting, he solemnly and sincerely bowed to Su Dai, "Qi Guang, brother and sister, I don't want to thank you for your kindness. I came here in a hurry today and didn't prepare a meeting ceremony. I will ask my servant to send a greeting card tomorrow."

"Me too," Lu Boya followed with a salute, "I will never forget it in this life."

Are the couple reincarnated Bodhisattvas?

With such a precious insight, I just casually talked to the two of them, since they have only known each other for a long time.

For this kind of person, it is worth a lifetime of deep friendship.

"It's just a little effort, you're welcome," Su Dai counted the time, she could almost get out of the cage, and left, "You guys continue to chat, I'll go get something to eat."

When you're done, turn around and leave.

After she left, Lu Boya couldn't help feeling emotional, "From afar, I think your family is close, loving, and enviable. After getting to know you, I feel that your character is even more precious."

"A good man should be rewarded with good rewards," Liu Zhiyuan echoed, "Qi Guang, you are talented and intelligent, your younger siblings are pure and caring, and your nephew is also lively and cute. You will surely live a smooth and safe life."

Every word the two said touched Mu Yao's heart.

Originally, he didn't want to entertain too much and was going to find an excuse to prevent the two from coming to the door, so he immediately dismissed his idea and invited with a smile, "my wife is also quite proficient in cooking, if Brother Zhiyuan and Brother Boya are not in a hurry, you might as well stay and have a meal potluck?"

"Respect is worse than obedience," Lu Boya agreed without hesitation, "One day when you come to the county, you will definitely come to my house as guests. My wife's cooking skills are average, but pickled vegetables are excellent. You husband and wife should also try her cooking."

Seeing this, Liu Zhiyuan expressed his position not to be outdone, "Although my family is not as prominent as the Lu family, I will definitely sweep the couch to welcome you."

The whole day, Su Dai's family of three stayed by the lake, Liu Zhiyuan and Lu Boya did not leave.

The two of them sat on a straw mat with Mu Yao, drinking tea while reading a book and discussing knowledge, occasionally mixed with a few aftertaste of lunch.

It was not until the last ray of the sun disappeared that we were reluctant to part.

"A beautiful and fulfilling day!" Su Dai stretched her waist. "In the future, if I have a chance, I still have to go out and walk more."

"It's really good to come out once in a while." Mu Yao is also in a good mood, "I'm always bored at home, and my heart becomes narrow after a long time."

Su Dai joked, "Such a deep understanding? It seems that I have been taught how to be a man today!"

"Look down on your man, don't you?" Mu Yao grabbed his wife's hand and took a bite, "Brother Zhiyuan and Brother Bo Ya are really talented, and I'm not a vegetarian. The three of us discuss as equals, and we can't even talk about asking for advice."

Damn victories!
Su Dai withdrew her hand and hugged herself distressedly, "Bite someone again, are you a dog?"
