Tang Bohu Marries Qiuxiang

Chapter 186 The Imperial Examination Situation ([-])

"Master Tang, what you teach in this academy is not stereotyped essays." A student said doubtfully, "Style-legged essays don't seem to have such content."

Tang Bohu explained: "There are thousands of knowledge in the world, but knowledge is endless. Are you interested in listening to it?"

Most of the scholars in Ming Dynasty have never accepted the subject of science. For example, mathematics, Gewu and so on are all related to science, but there is no such system as the science books that Tang Bohu worked so hard to copy. Tang Bohu is also very happy that they can accept this subject. Learning, a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Although the beginning is not easy, Tang Bohu is patient.

"It's okay to listen to it. It's good to change your mood by studying books all day long." A student said, walking into the classroom.

Now Wang Shouren is explaining the principle of thermal expansion and cold contraction. Listening to his explanation, Tang Bohu was surprised to find that Wang Shouren's explanation is very comprehensive. The research is so thorough.

Thinking back when I failed the exam several times back then, I didn't expect that Wang Shouren's understanding was so good. Wang Shouren only noticed that Tang Bohu was in the classroom, and his eyes seemed to be full of pride, which made Tang Bohu a little uncomfortable. Wang Shouren has seen and seen astrophysics, or calculus, or chemical equations?

Boil this guy's brain cells?

At the end of a physics class, Tang Bohu bid farewell to Li Dongyang and Liu Jian. Wang Shouren came to Tang Bohu and said, "Master Tang, why don't you have time to attend the class today?"

"There is a fly restless, let me take a look." Tang Bohu said.

Fly, Wang Shouren knew there was something in his words, but he didn't ask much, just said: "Chunwei is coming soon, and I'm going to start reviewing books, lest I might lose my name to Sun Shan, I'm afraid I won't be able to come here to teach these days."

"Go and study, the imperial examination is important." Tang Bohu said: "There are other teachers here, don't worry."

"Thank you, Master Tang." Wang Shouren said respectfully

Looking at Wang Shouren who has gained weight recently, Tang Bohu couldn't help asking curiously: "How are you getting along with that lady of yours recently?"

"Master Tang is concerned." Wang Shouren said, "My wife is well."

"Bohu! Wang Shouren." Wen Zhengming just walked over and said, "I've been studying books for a long time, and I've come out to relax, and you guys should come too."

"I just finished class." Wang Shouren said, "Master Tang said he came to chase away flies."

"Kill flies?" Wen Zhengming said suspiciously, "Although it's spring, it's warm and cold, and now there are flies in this season."

"It's just a little fly." Tang Bohu continued, "How is Chunwei's preparations going?"

"No big problem." Wen Zhengming said confidently but still worried, "Recently there is news that this year's imperial examination questions will be quite different from previous years."

"What's the difference?" Wang Shouren wondered.

"I also heard from some students. I don't know where the gossip came from." Wen Zhengming said: "There are also many students from Jiangnan who come to the capital. Brother Tang, don't you want to go for a meeting?"

"I'm busy." Tang Bohu said.

"Different from previous years?" Wang Shouren said, "What's the difference?"

Wen Zhengming went on to explain: "It is said that the topic of the imperial examination is still selected by the Imperial Academy, but it has passed through the hands of Li Dongyang, the cabinet minister! It is said that Li Dongyang is the chief examiner of this examination. It was Li Dongyang, a senior scholar, who added a few new questions."

After speaking, Wen Zhengming and Wang Shouren looked at Tang Bohu together.

"What are you doing looking at me like that?" Tang Bohu felt uncomfortable being stared at.

Wang Shouren paced around Tang Bohu and said: "At the time when the Guozijian and Tangzhuang Academy had a trial, although it was only a tie at the time, we all knew that Tangzhuang Academy was the one that won. This incident also made Tangzhuang Academy famous."

"So?" Tang Bohu asked further.

Wang Shouren replied: "If the test questions of this imperial examination are new, it is very likely that it has something to do with the test match last year. Except for the students who have studied in Tangzhuang, it seems that most of the students have not experienced such a different experience. knowledge."

"Presumably Li Dongyang will also think of this, and it shouldn't be too much." Tang Bohu is already in a cold sweat. If Li Dongyang writes a physics problem that students can't answer, if he traces the source of the problem, he will definitely find Tangzhuang Academy. A large group of students came to Tang Zhuang to denounce, so many students didn't give up this small Tang Zhuang. Those who can pass the exam these days are all famous.

The worst ones are scholars, and scholars with fame can’t do anything casually, and they have to sue for bullying people with fame. Could it be that those scholars can’t fight back if they want to overthrow my Tangzhuang?

"That's right!" Tang Bohu said suddenly, "How many people are there in this test?"

"Not many." Wang Shouren said: "I also live in seclusion these days, so I don't know how many people will come to try."

"I need to make preparations early," Tang Bohu said while preparing.

Wen Zhengming said puzzledly, "What are you preparing for?"

"The army is ready for war!" Tang Bohu said seriously.

Tang Bohu left in a hurry, Wang Shouren shook his head and said: "This Tang Bohu has such a stinking virtue, he listens to the wind and it rains, how can we scholars do it casually, generally we are very reasonable."

"What if it doesn't make sense?" Wen Zheng said, "Tang Bohu defeated hundreds of scholars by himself, and it was not so easy for him to greet him with his perfect tongue."

"When you get to that point, you can't just talk about it." Wang Shouren said looking at Chun Se.

"A gentleman moves his hands but does not speak." Wen Zhengming said.

"Even a gentleman can't always speak the truth." Wang Shouren breathed in the fresh air, "What if I can't speak the truth."

"I guess I'm going to move." Wen Zhengming was worried.

"Hehehe..." Wang Shouren smiled wryly, "Where did Xu Zhenqing go?"

"It's been a while." Wen Zhengming said, "Xu Zhenqing and Tang Bohu have changed a lot when they were young, and Tang Bohu has also changed over the years."

Tang Bohu returned home and was about to take a bath, when a porter stepped forward and said, "Master, today someone said that he found a scholar who behaved strangely in Tangzhuang."

A scholar who behaves strangely?

"I see." Tang Bohu nodded, took off his clothes, and jumped into the swimming pool!Feeling the cold water, my mind cleared up a lot. The winter had just passed, and the swimming pool had been replaced with new water, but it was still bitingly cold.
