After paying homage to Zhang Fei.
Xu He separated from Brother Sao.
He went to look for the number thirty-three.
In less than half a cup of tea, Xu He found his trumpet for future exams.
When Xu He saw the cramped little room with room for only one person, he couldn't help but sigh. If he was a fat man, it would be difficult for him to turn around and wave his elbows after entering.
What kind of slogan is this? It’s just a pigeon cage!
However, fortunately among misfortunes, Xu He's Zhouzi Thirty-three was in the East-West Alley in front of the famous lady's entrance.
The dormitories here are all arranged in a row with about 200 numbers.
My number 33 is still far away from the end of the alley, and I finally don’t have to smell the terrible smell during the exam.
I didn’t say anything anymore, it was all the fault of Mr. Xue Xiaohou.
Without him, Xu He and others would probably still be crowded on the road.
According to the speed of entering the market, the possibility of being ranked as shit is really not small.
By this time, it was not yet five o'clock in the morning, and Xu He was not in the habit of getting up too early. He was still in a state of fresh energy just now, and he was quite excited.
But as soon as he entered the house, he felt trapped.
He originally wanted to lie down on the wooden board in front of him and take a nap for a while.
But unknowingly, I suddenly heard someone shouting in my ear: "Get up, Sir, the question paper is here."
Xu He was suddenly startled when he heard this. He looked up and found that it was already bright and the Haojun in the alley opposite was looking at him like he was sizing up monsters.
It was Bugun who woke him up, holding a stack of paper.
Xu He quickly thanked him. After taking the paper, he did not rush to open it. Instead, he placed it on the board. He closed his eyes and concentrated to let himself gradually wake up from sleep mode.
Another moment passed.
When he opened his eyes again, he felt refreshed.
Today is the first session of the Provincial Examination. There are seven essays: three on the meaning of the Four Books and four on the meaning of the Classics. It is called Zhiyi, and some also call it Ju Ziye.
On the twelfth day, the second session will be an examination of the five principles of imperial edict, imperial edict, piao and judge.
The third session on the 15th, strategy five ways.
Writing seven articles in one day is still a lot of pressure for many scholars.
But Xu He is a high-scoring party who has experienced the horror of the college entrance examination in later generations.
After getting to know Zhiyi after time travel, he made an agreement with Xie Liangcai every day to brush ten pieces of paper every day.
Over time, Qi Wen became a trivial matter to him.
However, the rural examination is different from the past, and it still needs to be given enough attention.
First of all, according to the rules of the provincial examination, the first of the three tests is particularly important, that is, the eight-part essay writing is the most important.
The highest percentage.
Then here comes the problem.
If the seven eight-part essays are counted as one hundred points, is there any one that has a higher score?
There are no national regulations, everyone is treated equally.
But Xu He believes that as long as you are a human being, you have rules to follow.
Because the questions on the Four Books have always received more attention than the questions on the Five Classics.
Therefore, the first three of the seven chapters are more important.
Then analyze the first three chapters and four book questions.
First of all, the first essay is definitely the most important. It is the examiner’s first impression of you. If you don’t do well in the first essay, no matter how good you are later on, if others subjectively think you are not good, then you will not be able to do it.
Okay, the priority of the first article is adjusted to the highest priority.
Let’s look at the second article. When a person is writing an article, he puts all his energy into the first article. When the second article is cooked, he will have a good pen to follow, but the inspiration for the third article will be exhausted.
If you follow the usual order, write the first, then the second, and the third.
The curtain officer reads the scroll, which gets worse and worse and becomes boring.
But what if you change the writing order of the third and second articles?
When the examiner reads the third article, he will see many wonderful strokes in the article. He must be full of enthusiasm and show no signs of fatigue. Then the article... will be sold.
Thinking of this, Xu He already knew his writing process.
Time was tight, so he arranged the three articles in order of one, three, and two.
The first article, "There must be no lawsuits"... comes from "The Great Learning".
The third chapter, "Zhongye is the foundation of the world, and harmony is the ultimate way of the world"... comes from "The Doctrine of the Mean".
The second article, "Government with Virtue"... comes from "The Analects of Confucius".
Good guys, I took the three questions from three books, so I won’t use duplicates.
The entire sentence of the first chapter "There will definitely be no lawsuits" is... Confucius said: "I am a Jew who hears lawsuits, and there will definitely be no lawsuits."
The title is taken from the last sentence of the entire chapter, but this title also appears in "The Analects of Confucius·Yan Yuan".
Confucius was once the chief minister of the State of Lu, equivalent to the highest judge in later generations. He advocated moral education in his affairs, so he had the view of "listening to lawsuits, I am a human being, and there will be no lawsuits".
Zhu Xi's comment on this sentence is: "Since my virtue is clear, I naturally have the ambition to serve the people with fear, so the lawsuit will not be heard and I will have nothing!"
The meaning is actually very simple. It is nothing more than the same old Confucian philosophy. As long as you understand the moral philosophy of the saints, you can easily solve this kind of problem.
Xu He directly broke the title on the manuscript paper and said: "There are people who surrender to lawsuits without waiting for them to be heard. Politicians actually do this."
What's the meaning?
When there is no need for trial and the people can obey, this is actually made possible by the policies of those in power.
After finishing writing, Xu He was very satisfied with his solution.
As the saying goes, "Although the country is governed, punishment cannot be eliminated, and although the leader is virtuous, he cannot abolish the law." Law is an absolute necessity for a society. At the same time, the country's laws should be widely publicized so that the people know the law and understand it. In this way, gentlemen will cherish punishment and villains will fear the law. .
People will not cause trouble because of lack of legal awareness.
Xu He's breakthrough may not be remarkable in later generations, but in today's society with imperfect rule of law, it is very practical and enlightening.
Through the contact with the examiner Gu Shouyuan three days ago.
Xu He found that this person was very skillful and cautious in handling things. This was a typical legal personality.
Therefore, Xu He stated at the beginning that if we want to avoid picking up lost things on the road, we must engage in legal construction.
This is the favorite sentence of civil servants like Gu Shouyuan.
Therefore, the second skill of scientific examination.
Do what you like.
After writing the topic, Xu He did not finish it in one go.
He turned around and picked up the third chapter, "Zhongye is the foundation of the world, and harmony is the foundation of the world."
The sentence fragments of this article should actually be: "Zhongye" is the foundation of the world; "harmony" is the answer to the world.
The two words Zhong and He are the fundamental ideas of the book "The Doctrine of the Mean".
It is indeed a question that intellectuals and officials like Gu Shouyuan like to ask.
Xu He said: "[中] talks about the virtues of Taoism, and the body of [中和] is ready for use."
To explain, [中] means that nature and natural principles prevail in all things, while [中和] perfectly embodies the nature and function of all things in the world.
The book "The Doctrine of the Mean" contains many abstract concepts, many deduced relationships between concepts, and its meaning is quite mysterious.
Xu He's solution seems unremarkable, but if you have studied "The Doctrine of the Mean" deeply, you can see that his two sentences are actually multi-layered and very complicated.
The second chapter is "Government with Virtue".
The Analects of Confucius has always been a favorite test question among candidates.
Xu He was very fortunate to encounter the "Analects" question in the second article.
In other words, as long as he performs normally, Xu He may not be bad at writing any of the three chapters.
Gu Shouyuan is a very interesting person. The first article talks about the construction of the legal system, the second article talks about the construction of personal morality, and the third article talks about the laws of the movement of everything in the world, focusing on impartiality.
It can be seen from these three essay questions.
The way of the saint pursued by this examiner is the path of impartiality and integrity.
Wanting to understand this, Xu He broke the topic: "The foundation of rectification is virtue, and those who rectify others first rectify themselves."
Aren't you moral?
Can.
Before talking about others, improve your personal moral cultivation first.
Perfectly fits Mr. Gu’s philosophy of life.
Transparent!
