Chapter 9 Nine Classics of Imperial Examination
Seeing the young master waking up, Jin Ping'er was really happy, and hurriedly said, "Young master just woke up, you must be very tired, you rest first, I'll make porridge for you."

After finishing speaking, Jin Ping'er jumped out, humming a little song, like a cheerful skylark.

In the middle of the night, the mountains are high and the moon is small, and the pine shadows are uneven.

Li Tianquan sat cross-legged on the couch, with his hands knotted in the Hunyuan Five Element Seal, and an inexplicable brilliance flowed all over his body.

Cultivation is a time-consuming effort that cannot be slackened even a day.

Soon, four hours passed.

Li Tianquan opened his eyes, got up from the couch, opened the window, and saw the big sun rising from the mountain, the purple air coming from the east, and the golden awns wandering on the Jintai Mountain, the overlapping peaks were full of gold, the red light swayed, and the glow soared into the sky .

Li Tianquan raised his head, his eyes shone brightly, and absorbed the purple energy of the rising sun into his body, absorbing mana and nourishing his body.

It took him a long time before he stopped, his face brightened.

It has to be said that the Five Qi Chaoyuan Zhenjie is indeed the foundational formula of the Longevity Sutra, and Li Tianquan felt that his cultivation had improved significantly in just one night.

Li Tianquan picked up the dagger, went to the courtyard, and began to practice Fenglei Saber.

"If this goes on, in a year at most, I will be able to break through the five heavens, gather the five qi in my chest, and practice to the perfect state of the five energies."

Li Tianquan is so confident, not only because he has a system, he can practice with half the effort, but also because his body has the blood of Kuimu Sirius, with excellent roots and excellent aptitude.

At this moment, Jin Ping'er opened the door and came in. She was wearing a simple bun and a coarse cloth green dress, but there was a kind of beauty that came out of hibiscus in clear water and was naturally carved.

"what!"

Seeing Li Tianquan practicing knives in the courtyard, Jin Ping'er was startled, and hurried up, saying, "Master, you are just fine, why don't you lie down on the couch for a while?"

"I've been lying on the couch for three months, but I've had enough. I have to move around in the morning."

Li Tianquan's sword light kept on, and he deliberately restrained his mana and strength, but he still had a strong aura, like a wolf monster with teeth and claws, choosing to eat people.

Jin Ping'er looked horrified, and asked in surprise: "Master, when did you learn such an exquisite sword technique?"

Li Tianquan said with a smile: "During the time I was seriously ill, I dreamed that there was a solemn and majestic elder in official robes who passed on a set of saber techniques."

"It's getting more and more miraculous. It's clearly a dream, but when I wake up, it's like I've practiced this knife technique for more than ten years."

When Jin Ping'er heard the words, she didn't doubt at all, instead she showed joy: "Could it be that the ancestors of the Li family have manifested their spirits?"

In this world, there are often gods and Buddhas manifesting in the world, and the trend of seeking immortals and asking questions is prevalent. Even the ancestors manifesting spirits and blessing future generations often happen.

Therefore, Jin Ping'er was not surprised to hear the words, and even had an answer to the fact that the young master suddenly recovered from his serious illness.

Li Tianquan said: "Maybe it is!"

Jin Ping'er looked at it for a while, and felt that the young master who was weak in Japanese in the past was more heroic than before. His resolute and handsome face and vigorous figure made people see his heart beat like a deer, and his pretty face turned red.

She didn't dare to look any further, she just felt her mouth was dry and her legs were weak, so she ran away in a panic.

Li Tianquan didn't stop until he had practiced the Fenglei Saber 36 times. At this time, the sun was rising, and there was a big tree in the courtyard, whose branches and leaves covered the sky and covered the dazzling sunlight.

At this time, Jin Ping'er had already prepared breakfast, including vegetables, tofu, and a bowl of porridge. It was obvious that there was not much food left at home.

Li Tianquan saw it, but didn't say much. After breakfast, he went into the study.

This is a small room, separated by window paper, the light is dim, and it is quiet. There is a wooden couch in front of the small wooden window, occupying half of the room.

There is also a bookshelf in the corner, with several volumes of old books on it, the pages are yellowed, and it can be seen that it has been handed down for many years.

Li Tianquan's memories before he got this identity knew that the imperial examination system in the Tang Dynasty was different from the perfect imperial examination system in the Ming and Qing Dynasties of later generations.

There are only two sessions of Qiuwei and Chunwei, and there are no so-called rural examinations, government examinations, general examinations, and palace examinations.

Candidates for the Imperial Examination in the Tang Dynasty were mainly composed of two groups, namely "Sheng Tu" and "Xiang Gong".

The "fajie test" for juren in various townships is held in the autumn of the first year, which is called Qiuwei.

And the rural tributes who passed Qiuwei went to Chang'an Shangshu Province to take the exam in the spring of the second year, also known as Chunwei.

Therefore, after passing the Qiu Wei first, after passing the Chun Wei exam, you can become a Jinshi in high school.

Li Tianquan flipped through the scrolls in front of him while sorting out the memories in his mind, but just the initial understanding made him feel overwhelmed.

Datang's imperial examinations allow you to choose subjects freely, as long as you pass any one of the examinations, you can become a Jinshi.

Specific subjects include Xiucai, Mingjing, Jinshi, Mingfa, Mingzi, Mingshu and so on.

Among them, Mingjing and Jinshi are the most popular subjects, and the number of participants in other subjects is very small.

Mingjing mainly examines Confucian classics, while Jinshi mainly examines poetry and political theory.

Li Tianquan pondered for a long time, and decided without hesitation to take the examination of Ming Jing. Although he was a man in two lifetimes, he was completely ignorant of poetry and political argumentation.

Even if you are cramming now, it is hard to compare with those children of literati who inherit poems and books.

On the contrary, Mingjing mainly relies on memorization and recitation. If you can enter the examination classics into the system, it will be like opening a cheat sheet for you, and you can complete the imperial examination task as soon as possible.

Li Tianquan looked up the memory of the Ming Jing Ke carefully, and then realized that the Ming Jing Ke of the Tang Dynasty studied the Nine Classics.

The Nine Classics are divided into large, medium and small.

Great classics include "Book of Rites" and "Zuo Zhuan";
The Chinese Classics include "Poetry", "Zhou Li", "Yi Li"

Small classics include "Yi", "Book", "Gongyang Biography", "Guliang Biography"

Then the ranking is determined by the proportion of the classics. Those who have mastered the five classics are the highest, those who have mastered the three classics are next, and those who have mastered the second classics are the last, and then they are awarded officials respectively.

Among them, those who have mastered the five classics must master both the major and minor classics; those who have mastered the three classics must master one major, middle and minor classics each; Or take two parts of the Chinese classics.

In this era, books were very expensive, and there were a total of six volumes of scriptures on the shelf, which were left by my father back then.

Li Tianquan looked at these scrolls, made up his mind after a while, and thought, "Enter the six scriptures into the system."

A translucent system light curtain suddenly appeared in front of him.

Host: Li Tianquan
Age: 6 years old

Boundary: Ordinary

Talent: Kuimu Sirius bloodline (five-star)

Cultivation method: "Five Qi Chaoyuan True Explanation" (one star)
Skills: Wind and Thunder Saber (one star), Imperial Examination Nine Classics (disabled)
Li Tianquan's heart was shocked, he only felt that the scriptures and meanings contained in these six volumes of scriptures were flowing in his heart, and he soon understood them all.

The content of the six volumes of scriptures floated in the mind, and as soon as the heart moved, one knew the meaning of the words.

"In this way, the Mingjing imperial examination is like picking something out of a pocket for me."

"Just get together the nine volumes of scriptures, get familiar with the rules and format of the exam, and practice more, and you will surely succeed in one fell swoop."

"Of course, there is also calligraphy. In the imperial examinations of the Tang Dynasty, calligraphy and scrolls are also very important."

Li Tianquan cleared his mind and finally had a plan for what to do next.

"There is still more than a month before the fall of this year. It is completely enough to practice calligraphy and prepare for the exam."

"After passing the Qiuwei exam this year, I will go directly to Chang'an to participate in Chunwei. If I can become a high school scholar in one fell swoop, or even become the number one scholar directly, then I will be more sure of being a teacher."

"It's full of calculations, from now to Chunwei, it will take half a year."

Li Tianquan silently calculated, "I completed the side mission before and got a ten-year penance card, but there is no method for follow-up practice."

"Secondly, if you directly use the ten-year penance card, you may not be able to directly become a ghost fairy."

"In the future, I am afraid that it will take time to polish the practice. I will leave the penance card for the time being and use it at a critical moment, which will save countless hard work."

Li Tianquan had a plan, and his mind immediately settled down. After explaining a few words to Jin Ping'er, he immediately went out alone.

A few days passed in a blink of an eye, and after finishing the morning class this day, the morning glow was like a fire.

After several days of tempering, Li Tianquan felt that he was not far from the second level of Chaoyuan Realm, and in three or five days at most, he would be able to be promoted naturally.

Before the desk, he took out a pen and paper and silently wrote a paragraph of scriptures, not only to familiarize himself with the Six Classics, but also to practice calligraphy.

Since the six volumes of classics have all been entered into the system, after a short thought, all the contents flowed in my heart, and I immediately wrote like a god.

After all, he is a practitioner, and he has a fine-grained control over his body. In just a few days, his writing has become more mature, not only neat, but also has an unspeakable charm.

After Li Tianquan finished writing, he picked up the inkstone, held down the paper, stood up, and left the room.

"Ping'er, pawn these volumes of books and this jade finger, and replace them with gold and silver..."

Jin Ping'er exclaimed in surprise: "Master, absolutely not, these volumes are heirlooms, if you sell them, wouldn't it be, wouldn't it be..."

"Aren't you a prodigal?" Li Tianquan said with a smile.

People who sell books at this time are looked down upon, even among the poor and poor, there is no way and they will never sell books.

Li Tianquan patted the girl's eyebrows with his fingers, and said in a calm tone: "I already know these six scriptures by heart."

"This year's autumn and next year's spring, I'm already [-]% sure."

"When I become a Jinshi in high school, am I afraid that I won't have any books to read?"

There was no sound for a while, and after a while, I heard Jin Ping'er's bitter voice: "But this is passed down by the master...in case..."

The girl didn't dare to talk any more, she just felt that once the book was sold and the young master couldn't go to high school, the whole Li family would be ruined.

Li Tianquan said: "It's just an expedient measure. It will take a while. After I pass Qiuwei, the situation will be much better."

Hearing this, Jin Ping'er felt relieved, the young master has been intelligent since he was a child, he was even called a child prodigy, and his reputation spread widely around here.

After passing the Qiu Wei exam, I think it's not a big problem.

The girl was still a little bit reluctant, but she still took the things obediently and prepared to go out.

"I'll go with you, just to visit the bookstore."

"Master, it just rained last night, the road is slippery, be careful not to fall..." the girl said, and went out the gate with Li Tianquan.

It is said to be master and servant, but it is more like a family.
