Good son-in-law of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 584 Write it down

The three of them spoke in low voices, but it would be too much to discuss and lie to Mr. Wu again in front of Mr. Wu.

However, during their conversation, Wu Shiqi always maintained a dumbfounded appearance, like a corpse without a soul.

But Ms. Wu started to cry softly again, Su Mu was so flustered that she asked her what happened?

Ms. Wu sobbed and said, "You can hide it for a while, but you can't hide it for a lifetime. There are still ten days before you will enter the examination room. When the time comes, when the question paper is handed out, it is not the question you mentioned, Ziqiao. I am afraid that Dad will have to go again soon." Go crazy. At that time, what should I do?"

The more she thought about it, the more worried she became, and the more she thought about it, the sadder she became: "The examination room is nothing compared to being at home. If there is anything wrong with the examinee, the yamen guards will beat him with a stick, and he will be locked in the cell until the examination is over before he can be released. At that time, Dad If something goes wrong, it makes people...love... how can you feel..."

Thinking of the horror, Ms. Wu burst into tears.

Su Mu was stunned, and murmured: "Yeah, what should we do at that time?"

"The two of you really don't want to stay in the same family, you think the same thing!" Wu Er Er curled his lips.

Miss Wu: "Second brother, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Second Wu snorted: "Look at Dad's current situation, if you don't lie to him, he will definitely not get better. Didn't the doctor just say that there is no other way, and he didn't even leave a prescription. Do you want to go? Anyway, you are already crazy, so you have to try it. As for what will happen after Dad is cured and after entering the examination room, who can control it at this time? First help the emergency!"

He went on to say: "The plan for now is to wake up Dad first, as for what will happen after entering the examination room. In my opinion, we should hurry up and find a good doctor to prepare a few prescriptions in the past few days. After entering In the examination room, Dad found that the questions were wrong. But after this period of recuperation, maybe he won’t get sick again!”

Miss Wu was stunned by what he said, and after a long time, she nodded silently: "Zi Qiao, let's give it a try!"

Su Mu was also helpless, but what Wu Erer said made sense.It's impossible to watch the old man go crazy like this, let's just ignore it.Even if there is a glimmer of hope, try it.

He walked up to Mr. Wu and cupped his hands: "Mr. Su Mu is wrong, it is Su Mu who is too selfish. In fact, I have already obtained the topic of this exam from the emperor. This is the favor of Long Live. Only to Su Mu, without His Majesty nodding, it is naturally inconvenient to tell the old gentleman. However, old gentleman, you are Su Mu's father-in-law. Su Mu has no father since he was a child, and you are my relatives. Naturally, I can't hide this matter from you. Tell me all the topics of this subject."

Before he finished speaking, Wu Shiqi suddenly raised his head, and his expression returned to clarity.There was still a hint of majesty in his eyes, and he scolded: "You bastard, the imperial examination is a national talent rotation ceremony, how can you know the exam questions in advance? It doesn't matter if you talk nonsense, ruining the name of the emperor, that is a felony of beheading . Hurry up and shut up!"

Miss Wu and the second child cried out in surprise at the same time: "Daddy, how are you?"

"What's the matter, the old man is very good, what are you doing here, don't you see that the old man is seeing guests?" Mr. Wu roared loudly, yelling at his daughter: "You are a girl who has not been out of the cabinet, why are you not ashamed?" I ran out shamelessly to meet people, and if I spread the word, others would laugh at my Wu family for not having a tutor. My second son, take your sister away, get out of here!"

He suddenly turned his face, and Miss Wu's complexion changed drastically in fright.

The second child hurriedly pulled the elder sister, and the two retreated in a hurry.

Su Mu didn't know why the old man suddenly turned his back on him, but seeing that he regained consciousness, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Old man, take a good rest, this junior will leave."

"and many more."

"The juniors listen to the teachings."

Mr. Wu suddenly closed his eyes, stretched out a finger and pointed to the pen and paper on the table: "Write it down."

"Write what?"

"Nonsense, of course..." The old gentleman: "I haven't said anything, and I haven't heard anything."

Su Mu immediately understood that it was Mr. Wu who asked him to write the test questions of this session of the exam on paper.The old gentleman was eager for the exam questions at Su Mu's hand, but he couldn't refute it because of his face, and he refused to say it clearly.

The problem is that all this is just Su Mu's nonsense, unexpectedly, he took it seriously.

Su Mu didn't want to write it at first, but after thinking about it, the old man has been under a lot of pressure recently, and his spirit has become a little abnormal. At this time, he can only follow his mind and can't stimulate him anymore.

Forget it, just write a few questions to deal with it!

As for the future, I can't control that much.

Walking to the front of the case, Su Mu first added some water to the inkstone, and grinded the ink ingot leisurely, but his thoughts were spinning like lightning and flint.

The rules of the general examination are basically the same as those of the rural examination, with only minor differences, and it is divided into three sessions.

The first test is art making, that is, seven stereotyped essays.Among them, there are three titles in "Four Books" and four titles in "Five Classics".

The "Four Books" is the most important part of the imperial examination, and all four questions must be answered.As for the "Five Classics", candidates are required to choose one of the classics they have studied, which is called "this classic".

In other words, in the first three days, there were five questions in total.

The second session is an examination and discussion. The question is based on the classics of filial piety, and there are five sentences.Edict, imperial edict, and table are selected together.There are a total of seven topics in this session. Except for the discussion, judgments, edicts, edicts, and tables are all official document writing.

The third session consisted of five questions about classics, history, and current affairs policy.

Calculated in this way, the total number of questions in the three exams reached [-].

With so many topics, it really takes some effort to make them up from scratch.

Su Mu originally planned to write a few random articles to fool old Mr. Wu, but after thinking about it, the old father-in-law was originally a man of great talent.Staying in the house for these years, he has already read the Four Books and Five Classics by heart.As for the writing of government official documents, I have seen a lot of them after being an official for a year, so it doesn't bother him.

If he scribbles randomly and the difficulty is not enough, or if he says something wrong, it will inevitably arouse his suspicion, and if the old man is going to go crazy again, then it is not beautiful.

So, how to come up with this topic?

While grinding the ink, he thought carefully, for a long time, Su Mu didn't have a suggestion.

You must know that the examiner of the exam is at least a bachelor-level official of the Hanlin Academy.Such a character, who is not a top person killed from the bloody imperial examination field, is naturally the best in the world in terms of education.A person like Wang Zhi is a master of stereotyped writing and a master of a generation of writing style.

Su Mu's half-toned foundation of Chinese studies, if he came up with a question himself, wouldn't he be laughed off by others?

Thinking about it, he hesitated subconsciously.
