Upon hearing the greasy fat man’s “feat” of drawing on the examination paper, Zhu Pingan could not calm down for a long time and could not understand the greasy fat man’s magical brain circuit.
“What kind of painting did you do?”Liu Dazhou asked curiously.
“I drew an offering table, lit three pillars of clear incense, and dressed myself in a scholar’s uniform to offer my ancestors at home to tell my ancestors that I had won the election ……”The greasy fat man stretched out his oily fingers, moved a few plates of food, and simply sketched on the table, and soon the painting he made at that time was presented on the table in a simple but graphic way.
Fatty’s self-portrait is really graphic, a few simple strokes, but the fat man’s own essence of all on it, dressed in the suit, holding three columns of incense, spirited in front of the offering table to pay homage to their ancestors.
Why Lin examiner will comment on the article is too short cheeky, so far, Zhu Pingan completely understand.
You have not yet finished this examination, you drew your own successful ancestor worship map, no wonder the examiner said that your article is short cheek ……It is estimated that when Examiner Lin saw your examination paper and painting, what came to his mind was the words of Zhuge Liang scolding Wang Lang, “I have never seen such a brazen person!”
You really live up to your name as a wunderkind, and the things you do are so unbelievable that ordinary people would never be able to understand them.
“This painting has both form and spirit, how wonderful, Lin old pedant pedant to the extreme! Doesn’t know how to appreciate it!”The greasy fat man gritted his teeth.
Zhu Pingan couldn’t help but cry and laugh, and was about to give the fat man a little bit of information about the forbidden matters of the imperial examinations, when he heard the greasy fat man laugh out loud.
“Brother Hu, for what reason are you laughing?”Zhu Pingan asked.
“Hahaha ……You say coincidence, after a few years have passed, another session of the township exams, I unexpectedly met old scholar Lin as the chief examiner again. Didn’t you think my essay was too short? Who doesn’t know how to write a long essay. This time, I will write a long essay to show you. So I ah, hahaha ……Not only write the test paper all over, but also the table, chair all write all over, finally hand in the paper, I carry the table and chair together hand in, you are not see, at that time that old scholar face green ah ……”
The greasy fat man laughed and said, especially in said Lin examiner face green, more high to take off.
The corners of Zhu Pingan’s mouth twitched ……You motherfucker is really a talent ah!
“Brother Hu, do you know the taboos of the imperial examinations?”Zhu Pingan looked at the greasy fat man with a helpless face.
“Ran also.”The greasy fat man nodded.
“Then why are you ……”Zhu Pingan said breathlessly.
“What’s the need to suppress when you’re excited, I’m such a han.”The greasy fat man puffed out his chest and said with a jerky look.
Zhu Pingan was speechless. You’re like this, how can you win the examination?
“Of course, later on, I still repressed it, such a thing, and didn’t do it anymore.”The greasy fat man sighed.
When Zhu Pingan heard this, the corner of his mouth twitched again, expressing his disbelief in the fat man’s words, rivers and mountains are easy to change and nature is hard to change. Fatty although you are not so jumpy in your behaviour anymore, you no longer draw on the test paper and compose on the table, but you are definitely still jumpy and entrapped in the eight-unit answer sheet line of the imperial examination ……
Eight-unit examination in the four books and five classics to take the question, the content should also imitate the tone of the ancients, on behalf of the saints voice, absolutely do not allow free play, can not deviate from the scriptures, can not be contrary to the saints of the scriptures, and the saints do not agree with the views of the saints, or else the name of the mountain is inevitable.
Fatty is a wizard, his thoughts transcend this era, and his temperament is such that it is too difficult to make him not to entrain his personal goods. However, if this one fault doesn’t change, if you want to be successful in the examination, it will be harder than ever! Unless all the examiners are put through and give you the green light all the way, otherwise you are an insulator for winning the imperial examination.
“Brother Hu, the imperial examinations, the eight-legged essay is about following the words of the sages ……”Zhu Pingan couldn’t help but remind.
“What the sages say must all be right?”The greasy fat man twisted his head, looked at Zhu Pingan, and issued a soul question, “The words of the sages that Zhu Xi and the others annotated must be what the sages wanted to express?”
Questioning the sages, questioning Zhu Xi!
You are indeed very thoughtful, and your thoughts surpass the vast majority of people in this era. It is true that sages are not necessarily right, and Zhu Xi’s annotations are not necessarily what sages want to express, but ……
However, if you want to pass the imperial examination, you have to acquiesce that he is right, and acquiesce that Zhu Zi’s annotations are what the sage wanted to express.
This is the imperial examination correct.
“Brother Hu, the words of the sages are not always right, and Zhu Zi’s annotations are not always what the sages want to express.”Zhu Pingan returned, then reminded the fat man, “However, if brother Hu wants to pass the imperial examination, he must acquiesce that the words of the sages are universally correct, and Zhu Zi’s annotations are the meaning that the sages want to express ….The line of view is the same as Zhu Zi, can not be contrary ……”
“You have taken one more step than don’t, but unfortunately it’s still a commoner, alas, a thousand gold is easy to get, but it’s hard to find a confidant.”
The greasy fat man heard Zhu Pingan s words, his eyes lit up for a moment and then darkened, shook his head in disappointment, and sighed.
Err ……
I’m a mundane person?
Do you know capitalism? Do you know Marxism-Leninism? Do you know materialism and dialectics? Do you know philosophy? Do you know relativity? Do you know physical chemistry? Do you know ……?
Oh, believe it or not, if I randomly pick one out and tell you about it, I can stun you to death here.
Hearing the fat man call himself a layman, Zhu Pingan couldn’t help but pull the corner of his mouth.
“Alas, the world is so big, mountains and seas of people, my soulmate ah, where are you! Really life is as lonely as snow ah ……This world, it’s really getting less and less cute.”The greasy fat man touched a handful of grease stains at the corner of his mouth and sighed in despair, like a lonely beast abandoned in a corner
“Your confidant, I do know one.”Seeing the fat man’s lost appearance, Zhu Pingan could not help but say.
“Oh, who? What qualifications does he have to be my confidant.”The greasy fatty asked with curiosity and disbelief.
“This person is Xin Jin, famous name Rui, word Sheng Yan.”Zhu Pingan returned.
“Jin Sheng Sigh? A saint’s sigh? This person’s name is somewhat interesting, you didn’t make it up, did you?!”
The greasy fat man looked at Zhu Pingan with a burning gaze and said sceptically.
“Jin Sheng Sigh, a real person too, not something I made up.”Zhu Pingan looked at the greasy fat man with a frank face, because Jin Sheng Sao was indeed a real person, just that it was dated more than a hundred years later at the end of the Ming Dynasty and the beginning of the Qing Dynasty.
Seeing the frankness and determination in Zhu Pingan’s gaze, the greasy fat man believed that there was indeed such a person as Jin Shengyan.
“Even if there is such a person as Jin Shengyan, what qualifications does he have to call me a confidant?”The greasy fat man shrugged his shoulders and said.
The greasy fat man was very sceptical. In his opinion, his confidant in this world, perhaps he hadn’t been born yet, because at least up to now, he hadn’t come across one, let alone one, not even half. Therefore, the greasy fat man did not have much expectation for the Jin Sheng Sheng that Zhu Ping An said in his mouth.
