The imperial examinations are meant to select the pillars of talent for the country, but they use the eight-legged essay as the selection criterion, and the eight-legged essay is used to fetch what kind of scholar? Ridiculous, ridiculous ……Ridiculous, ridiculous ……”
After the greasy fat man was embarrassed, he picked up the wine pot and drank a cup to himself, saying emotionally, indignant at the eight-legged selection of scholars.
Zhu Pingan listened to the greasy fat man’s words and nodded imperceptibly, he agreed with the fat man’s words.
The imperial examinations were definitely a historical advancement and definitely politically correct, but the eight-legged method of taking soldiers was a reversal of history.
Eight-legged text is a kind of word game, certainly its can select a part of the talent of the generation, but more is detached from the actual nerd, the modern analysis of the eight-legged to take soldiers is very thorough, eight-legged to limit people’s thinking, bound people’s freedom of thought …….Not much to say here.
“Ridiculous and ridiculous? Then you still have to take the exam and say that you want to be successful ……”Liu Dazhou snorted.
“Reality is so fucked up, I can only follow and take off my trousers ……”The greasy fat man said, heavily spat a mouthful of phlegm on the ground, then stepped on the chair with one foot, arrogantly tilted his body and nudged his chin at Zhu Pingan, and asked with a boozy breath, “Hey, have you ever participated in the imperial examinations?”
Zhu Pingan nodded.
“Since you’ve been down to play, you should know what the eight-legged examination is like, right?”The greasy fat man said to Zhu Pingan.
Zhu Pingan nodded, “A little bit.”
“I’m telling you, the Eight Guilds of Scholarship is a piece of shit!”The greasy fat man talked about the eight shares to take soldiers, not the usual excitement, after spitting on the eight shares to take soldiers, the greasy fat man said to Zhu Pingan again, “The first time I participated in the countryside examination, the title at that time was ‘the original soil razed, que party children will be life’.”
Saying this, the greasy fat man paused, looked sideways at Zhu Pingan and asked, “Do you know what this question is?”
“This question is truncated into a question, ‘Yuanyang yiqi’ is from the twelfth chapter of the Analects of Confucius Constitution ‘Yuanyang yiqi.’ Zi said: ‘Young and not Sun Di, long and no description, old and not dead, is a thief.’Knock on his shin with a staff.’；阙党童子将命来自《论语宪问篇第四十四》”que党童子将命。 He was asked: ‘Who is the beneficiary?’The son said: ‘I am in a position to see that I am in parallel with the gentleman. It is not the one who seeks benefit, but the one who desires quick success.'”Zhu Pingan answered back.
The eight-legged essay questions in the imperial examinations were all chosen from the Four Books and Five Classics, but the Four Books and Five Classics were only hundreds of thousands of words, and after so many years of imperial examinations, almost all of the questions that could be examined had been given. In order to avoid repeating the question, affecting the fairness, this kind of cut off the scriptures, patchwork grafted together the question also came into being. In order to make this kind of eight-legged essay, one needed to quickly find the source of the plausible sentence and then break the question to answer it.
After arriving at the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Pingan made great efforts on the eight-legged essay as a tool to enter the civil service, and was familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics, as well as the eight-legged essay, and could not be more familiar with it. This kind of interception was just child’s play.
“Eh? Not bad, you’re qualified to listen to me down the line.”The greasy fat man was slightly surprised, not expecting this rich son across the street to be able to break through so quickly, and nodded in satisfaction.
“Hehe, you are really big talkers!”Liu Dazhou couldn’t help but heave a sigh when he heard the greasy fat man’s words. You, a Xiu Cai, even test compared to the Scholar, and said to the Scholar that you are qualified to listen to me down the line!
“As for you, that’s for the lute ……”The greasy fat man swept a glance at Liu Dazhu and angled his chin.
Liu Dabao returned a lol.
“Do you know how I broke my essay?!”The greasy fat man’s face glowed.
Zhu Pingan shook his head, this I really don’t know.
“The original hustling Yi Hou, the husband knocked his head with his staff, the original hustling three souls were tiny, seven souls were lost, a breeze, transformed into a Que party child.”After pouring himself a cup, the greasy fat man rose from his seat and read aloud in a staccato manner.
“Wonderful, wonderful!”Zhu Pingan sniffed and couldn’t help but high-five in admiration, “Such a marvellous essay, how could it not win?!”
“If only the examiner’s eyes were like yours.”The greasy fat man crumpled into a chair.
“It shouldn’t be. How could such a strange essay not win, and who was the examiner at that time?”Zhu Pingan said in disbelief.
“The name of the examiner at that time was Lin Mo Yu.”The greasy fat man mentioned the name of the chief examiner, Woody couldn’t help but gnash his teeth.
“Lin Mo Yu? No way?!”Zhu Pingan silently read the name once, soon had an impression, but the impression of Lin Muoyu’s popularity can be ah, for the end of the school latecomers have to persuade the action, is not nonsense of the person ah.
“How not!”Greasy fat man thought of the past, the emotion is still very excited, reach out from the table and tear down a crappy leg, chewed a bite hard, as if the chewing is LinMoYu’s meat like.
“Does Examiner Lin have a comment?”Zhu Pingan asked.
“This old scholar disliked my essay as too short, and gave me the critique ‘essay too short cheeky, ranked after Sun Shan.'”The greasy fat man mentioned the critique Lin Mo Yu had given him, and his fat face darkened like the bottom of a pot.
Zhu Pingan listened to Examiner Lin’s comment on the fat man and frowned slightly.
The article was a bit shorter, but what is condensed is the essence ah, in addition, what the hell is the “thick skin” in Examiner Lin’s comment. But how can you tell if you read the article? You can’t say someone is thick-skinned just because they look fat, can you? Examiner Lin’s comment was a bit childish, and it was somewhat inconsistent with the public’s perception of Examiner Lin, Zhu Pingan couldn’t figure it out for a while.
Things shouldn’t be that simple, right?
Thus, Zhu Pingan looked up at the fat man and asked, “Brother Hu, why would Examiner Lin comment ‘thick-skinned’? Could there be any misunderstanding in it?”
“Where is there any misunderstanding, it is that he is blind and cynical, and cannot appreciate my masterpieces and paintings ……”
The greasy fat man gritted his teeth and said.
“Can’t appreciate your masterpieces and ……Wait, brother Hu, what did you just say, paintings?!”
Zhu Pingan listening to listen to the Jue’s not right scripture, you call yourself masterpieces no problem, but paintings are what the hell?
“Oh, the exam questions are so easy and casual, I put my pen to paper, and I have nothing to do for the rest of the day, so I drew a picture after the exam paper ……”The greasy fat man said in disbelief.
What? You drew a picture after the exam paper?
Zhu Pingan heard, immediately dumbfounded, the corners of the mouth twitching, half a day can not say a word, in addition to a “no work no die why you try”, really do not know what to say.
This is the imperial examination ah pro, not home, can not be a little serious, you draw a picture in the back of the examination paper, this is not a death!
This is the equivalent of marking the exam paper! You’re marking the paper! The paper with the drawing on it is your paper. Theoretically, you’re cheating. If you do this, even if the King of Heaven came, he wouldn’t dare to admit you. The imperial examination fraud is to shake the foundation of the rule, which is the feudal dynasty is the most serious crime, if the examiner dares to admit you, then he not only career is not guaranteed, even the head will not be able to protect ah.
