One Thought Feixian

Chapter 732
At the beginning of the scientific examination, the three men sat together and started talking.

"well said!"

Grand Tutor Zuo Zongting nodded and said: "It's easy to buy a thousand soldiers, but it's hard to find a general! The Holy Majesty will select countless talents from this imperial examination and send them to Lizhou, Fengzhou, Cangzhou and other places to entrust them with important tasks. Great talent, I'm afraid it will only mess things up."

"These places are in a mess!"

Bao Qianxun said with a gloomy expression: "Especially the Lizhou, the barren race, the cult, the Wanzongmeng, the remnants of the Great Leaving Kingdom, and a mixed bag of fish and dragons. They often killed the officials and generals of the Central Dynasty, and even the mighty Marquis Bai Yuchan was killed. It's absolutely lawless, if you send someone who has no strength to restrain the chicken, it's just courting death."

His son also died in Lizhou and was killed by Jiang Yi, so he didn't have any good feelings for Lizhou.

"The Holy Majesty came to Lizhou in person, and has already driven the Huangzu back to the Great Wilderness. The cult and the Wanzong League have also died down. Lizhou has finally found peace, and there is a large army conscripted by the imperial court, and the blood-clothed army is in charge, so there will be no more troubles. But Feng There are still many important religious figures who escaped, but they were not killed, and there will be great troubles.”

Zuo Zongting said, it seemed that he meant something.

"Since ancient times, evil has prevailed. Those people are just clowns who can't make any big waves. If these candidates are really talented, they will naturally not be buried. When the time comes for the gold list, they will have the national fortune of the Central Dynasty. Not so easy to kill."

Pang Tiandu said lightly.

"Many people now say that Su Qian is the number one scholar in this imperial examination. Grand Master, this Su Qian is your student. What do you think?" Zuo Zongting's eyes suddenly fell on Pang Tiandu body.

"He is the most outstanding student of the Imperial College!"

Pang Tiandu looked calm, looked down, and said: "However, Wen Wu is the first, and Wu Wu is the second. This time the imperial examination, hidden dragons and crouching tigers, is hard to say."

"Oh?"

Zuo Zongting and Bao Qianxun were shocked when they heard this, they didn't expect Pang Tiandu to say such a thing.

Time flies, and it will soon be Xiangwu.

"Is there any test paper recommended by the examiners from all sides?" Pang Tiandu suddenly asked.

He reckoned that several hours had passed, and some quick-witted and knowledgeable people must have finished their answers and handed in the test papers ahead of time.

"Reporting to the Grand Master, there are indeed quite a few people who handed in their examination papers in advance, but after my review, most of them are non-classical articles, but they are handled indiscriminately, and they cannot be put on the table. Only these few examination papers are acceptable."

An examiner answered quickly, handed over a few test papers in his hand, tore off the seal, and spread them on the table.

Pang Tiandu immediately picked up the examination papers and looked at them. After an incense burn, he judged: "These examination papers talk about the achievements of Tianhuangpan and echo what others say. They are all things that have been badly written in books, and now they are copied mechanically. When I wrote this exam paper, I didn't have any opinions of my own. They are all pedantic people who can only memorize by rote. Only this exam paper, when talking about Pan's achievements, also pointed out Pan's faults. No one is perfect , Jin Wuzuchi, um... I still have some ideas, so stay here for now!"

After finishing speaking, he handed the examination papers to the two people next to him for viewing.

Zuo Zongting and Bao Qianxun took the examination paper and looked at it for a while, then nodded.Obviously also recognized Pang Tiandu's point of view.

"The Grand Master is the chief examiner, a master of literature in the imperial court, and his judgments are very accurate!"

As a result, only one of these examination papers remained, and the rest were all dismissed.

Those who answered quickly and handed in the papers in advance may not all be good articles. Some of the candidates’ official documents are all operated in the dark and bought with money. Knowing what Jing Yi Ce said, so he wrote something indiscriminately on the examination paper, which was inappropriate, and he was rejected in the first round.

At this time, there were few people submitting papers, so the examiners weighed them before submitting those papers. If there were too many papers, they would immediately judge them as failed papers.

This is also a benefit of handing in the papers in advance, because there are fewer exam papers, and the chances are greater.

At this moment, You Qingfeng, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, walked over with dozens of examination papers in his hand.

These examination papers had just been handed in and hadn't been reviewed yet, but You Qingfeng's face was filled with excitement, which made many examiners extremely puzzled.

"Qingfeng, why are you so excited?" Pang Tiandu asked.

"Teacher, Su Qian has already handed in the paper, and it's right here!" You Qingfeng saluted and replied respectfully.

He was also a student of Pang Tiandu.

Pang Tian pondered for a while, and said again: "It's okay to be idle now, so let's present everything."

"Yes!"

You Qingfeng immediately presented all the examination papers in his hand.

According to the rules, these examination papers must be reviewed by other examiners first, and excellent articles should be selected from them, and then submitted to Pang Tiandu.

However, the chief examiner is Pang Tiandu, so there is nothing wrong with marking it directly, and no one has any objections.

It's just that the examiners were shocked when they heard that Su Qian's test paper was among them.

There is no way, Su Qian's reputation is too great. He is a popular candidate for the top spot in the imperial examination. He is talented and well-known far and wide. Naturally, the scriptures he writes are extraordinary, and it is very likely that they will be the number one scholar. Everyone wants to see them quickly.

It's a pity that he was cut off halfway by the grand master, and all the examiners secretly showed disappointment, even the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites.

They also lost much interest in the examination papers that were sent next, and they were listlessly reviewing them.

Pang Tiandu did not review Su Qian's examination papers first, but reviewed them one by one in the order they were submitted.

"The words in this article are gorgeous, the scriptures are cited, and the achievements of Pan are praised throughout the article, but it is a pity that it is not flashy, and it is out of the paper!"

"This article talks about everything from the ancient Three Emperors to the present-day sages. The scene is grand, scolding Fang Qiu, and pointing out the country, but it's just talking nonsense. Those who say big things in their mouths are all hypocrites."

... Pang Tian read several articles in a row, shook his head, and judged all of them as failures.

At this moment, he broke the seal of an examination paper and spread it out. Suddenly, a wave of literary energy shot up into the sky, creating various visions.

The spirits of the people were in a trance for a while, as if a picture scroll was unfolded in front of them. On this picture scroll, a silver snake danced on the mountain, a wax statue of Yuan Chi, and a great emperor descended to the world, spreading benevolence, morality, and etiquette, enlightening all people, and praising the world. , condensed into an epic scene.

"The article is picturesque, and the words and sentences become poems with profound meanings. This is an article of poetry and painting. My God...who wrote this article, how can it be so magical?" Many examiners lost their voices.

Words are like martial arts, each move and style of martial arts has momentum, and the same is true for articles, there are also one word and one sentence, people concentrate on writing articles, get rid of distracting thoughts, concentrate on writing, and integrate all the energy into the articles, the words and sentences are clear, And it makes sense, just like practicing martial arts correctly, you will naturally have incredible power.

Now this article is full of literary vigor, radiant, poetic and picturesque. It is obviously written with reason, beautiful words, and extraordinary.

"Is this the article written by Su Qian?"

"Poetry and painting articles must be Su Qian, only Su Qian can write such articles!"

"After so many imperial examinations, there has never been a poem or painting article. This is God's blessing, and my court will be rejuvenated!"

"The No. [-] scholar article, it must be it!"

...The examiners started to discuss, and they all thought that this article was none other than Su Qian.

Only Su Qian has the ability to write poems and paintings.

Zuo Zongting and Bao Qianxun also showed surprise on their faces.

"Good words! The writing is also very good!"

After reading the article, Pang Tiandu's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help admiring: "This article is a masterpiece. It understands the topic very thoroughly. It talks about the theory of governing the country. It has unique insights and hits the nail on the head. Good, very good!"

After speaking, he handed the examination papers to Zuo Zongting and Bao Qianxun to read.

"Teacher, is this written by Su Qian?" You Qingfeng, Minister of Rites, couldn't help asking.

This is also a question that all examiners want to know.

"No!"

But Pang Tiandu shook his head: "This article was not written by Su Qian, but by a candidate named Immortal in Painting."

"what?"

As soon as these words came out, all the examiners were taken aback, with expressions of disbelief in their eyes.

"It's not Su Qian's article, how is it possible?"

"Immortal in the painting? Why have I never heard of such a number one character?"

"Let me check it... I found it, and it's a candidate from Lizhou."

"Lizhou? In such a chaotic place, full of savages, unruly people, killing officials and rebelling, there are still such talents?"

... "This time, more than 30 people took part in the imperial examination, but all of them were mediocre. I am an ancient man who painted the world with his pen, the fairy in the painting, and all the world's states. , The scriptures and articles written are naturally extraordinary."

In the hall, the fairy in the painting is sitting upright, his eyes seem to be able to see through the thousands of barriers, and see the scene on the stepped platform.

He exuded a sense of self-confidence all over his body, and he was in high spirits: "This year's champion is none other than me! The deity, the second child, and the third child have all died in Jiang Yi's hands. Only I can dominate the world with you and forge the world. brilliant."

In another room, Su Qian sat upright, looking calm and calm, without any anxiety.

Because he also has absolute confidence that he can win the top spot.

"My literary talent is unmatched!" He murmured a sentence.

He studied in the Imperial College since he was a child, and was Pang Tiandu's favorite student. He was naturally clear about his teacher's theory of governing the country and school of thought.

Moreover, he participated in the imperial examination this time to serve the imperial court and help the Holy Majesty fulfill his lofty ambitions, so he also knew the deep meaning of this question.

All kinds of things are enough for him to win the top spot.

Looking at the students of the major academies, no one has as high a literary talent as him.
