Prime Minister

Chapter 307 Moon Shadow
When Zhang Yue heard what Ouyang Xiu said, thousands of horses galloped past him.

It turned out that calling me back to Beijing was not to discuss with me, but just a notice?
It's not like that.

Zhang Yue also felt the subtlety, Han Qi and Fu Bi are probably at odds now, but how could they recommend him at the same time.

Do you want to stand in line yourself, but neither of these two is the person you want to stand in line with.

Zhang Yue and Ouyang Xiu leave, when they go out and meet Ouyang Fa.

Ouyang Fa had a ghostly expression on his face, and said palely: "Duzhi, shouldn't you be on the way to Chuzhou now? Why are you here? Could it be..."

Zhang Yue thought to himself, are you fucking funny?
Zhang Yue said: "Mr. Da Lang, can you stop joking?"

Immediately Zhang Yue and Ouyang Fa said that they had been called back by his father to take part in the department.

Only then did Ouyang Fa relieve himself and said with a smile: "It's good to go to the university. It's a good thing. If you are admitted, the officials are happy to keep you in Beijing. Wouldn't it be a good time? Why is it so embarrassing for Duzhi?"

Zhang Yue said heartily, you really don't know anything about Ersu's strength.

Ouyang Fa encouraged: "In the past, Emperor Wen ordered the county guards to recommend virtuous, outspoken and extremely admonishing people to personally advise them. Chao made a wrong strategy and was promoted to the doctor of the middle school."

"In the first year of Yuanguang, Emperor Wu made a literary edict for the virtuous and good, and Dong Jiang even went up to heaven and man for three strategies."

"Both Chao and Dong are famous for their disciplines. During the Han Dynasty, the talents of the disciplines were extremely prosperous. Even in this dynasty, it is a good story."

Zhang Yue thought, of course he knew.

Dong Zhongshu's Three Strategies for Heaven and Man can be regarded as the best policy theory in history. In the three theories, he mentioned the relationship between heaven and man, praised Confucianism, unified the Spring and Autumn Period and set up Taixue, and selected poor talents instead of the sons of gentry.

The national policies from Han to Qing were all tossed about, and nothing came out of the circle.

But I was the No. [-] scholar in Jiayou's sixth year, and Su Shi and Su Zhe were the top four in Jiayou's second year. If I fail in the department...

The number one parallel importer in the Song Dynasty? ? ?

In the end, your father reported my name without even asking me a word?

But thinking about it carefully, Zhang Yue has no way out.The two prime ministers have named your name, and you can't push it away yourself.

Generally speaking, two ministers are recommended by two ministers, but this is the first time that two prime ministers personally recommend one person at the same time.

Zhang Yue thought that although it was forcibly arranged here, it relieved some emotions.

If you come, you will be safe. After some explanations from Ouyang Fa, Zhang Yue has already decided to take the exam.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yue turned around and went back to meet Ouyang Xiu again.

But I saw Ouyang Xiuxiu washing his feet under the service of two young and beautiful envoys.

Seeing Zhang Yue go and come back again, I couldn't help being shocked.

Seeing the splash of water on the footbasin, Zhang Yue turned sideways and stood by the door and coughed twice.

Ouyang Xiu asked the two female envoys to step back first, then wiped his feet with a towel and asked, "Why did you leave and come back?"

Zhang Yue said from the sidelines: "The system department has to select fifty policy papers for the two system officials to read. I don't know if uncle has anything to explain?"

Ouyang Xiu smiled slightly, he is really a child.

Smart people are good at switching emotions, from passive to active.

Therefore, Ouyang Xiu said with a smile all over his face: "There are strategies and opinions in the papers. This time, I will praise you as a virtuous founder who can be outspoken and extremely admonishing subjects."

Zhang Yue Xinzhi has ten subjects.

Respectively, virtuous founders can bluntly speak out in the Department of Admonishment, Botong's grave is brilliant in the Department of Education, knowledge and brilliance in the Department of Physical and Utilization, and the Department of Detailed Officials can be used for political affairs, Department of Knowledge, Strategy and Operations, and Department of Military Strategy and Far-reaching Talents.

These six subjects are specially designed for officials in the court.

In addition, there are Gaodaoqiuyuanke, Shenshencaozeke, Maocaiyi, etc., which are taken from the common people.

In addition, there are calligraphy tests and so on.

However, among these subjects, Xianliang is the head, and system subjects are all referred to as Xianliang.

Ouyang Xiudao: "As for the theory of progress, there is no certain number, 2525 or 23 ten can be used."

Speaking of this, Ouyang Xiu said to Zhang Yue: "Follow me to the study."

Zhang Yue borrowed a lamp from the maid and went to the study with Ouyang Xiu.

Ouyang Xiu rummaged through the case for a while, took out a volume bag and said to Zhang Yue, "This is Su Zizhan's entry volume, you can take it for detailed reference, and finally prepare fifty volumes for submission."

Zhang Yue was taken aback.

Ouyang Xiu said: "Why are you still being polite to me?"

Of course Zhang Yue was happy. Ouyang Xiu showed Su Shi's article to himself, which showed that he still preferred himself in his mind.

Zhang Yue said: "That's not the case. Zizhan's writing must be exquisite. I'm afraid I've messed up my position after reading it."

Ouyang Xiu nodded and said, "Very good. You go back and think carefully that you don't need to rely on others."

"That's right, Zizhan's talents and knowledge are both brilliant in physical and practical subjects, while Ziyou's virtuous, upright, upright and outspoken subjects are extremely admonishing."

Zhang Yue breathed a sigh of relief, this time he avoided Su Shi, but he still ran into Su Zhe.But it's no wonder that Ouyang Xiu showed Su Shi's papers to himself, because the two are not in the same subject.

That's right, when I left Beijing that day, I heard that Wang Kui had also passed the examination for being a virtuous and virtuous Fang Zheng, who was able to speak out and admonish him. Is this another encounter?
Zhang Yue saluted Ouyang Xiu before leaving.

Ouyang Xiu looked at Su Shi's roll bag and looked at Zhang Yue's back, and said that he is really a high scholar.

Ouyang Xiu didn't know that Zhang Yue didn't want to read Su Shi's article.But most of Su Shi's articles were collected by later generations, so Zhang Yue already had an impression.

After Zhang Yue left Ouyang Xiu's mansion, he returned to his home.

Zhang Shi Yu was surprised when he saw it.

"Why did the third brother come back?"

Zhang Shi just bid farewell to Zhang Yue the day before yesterday, so why did he come back.

Zhang Yue said: "It's a long story, let me rest first."

The sooner the next day's chapter gets up on the case and writes it into the volume.

Theory and policy are different.

Theory is more focused on the virtual, and the strategy is more focused on the real.

First of all, Zhang Yue wrote the scriptures.

The first chapter is the Book of Changes, followed by the Shangshu, the Book of Songs and other nine classics.

Then I wrote the Analects of Confucius and the Classic of Filial Piety, a total of eleven classics.

In the last chapter, Mencius was added together, a total of twelve classics and treatises.

These are all Zhang Yue's past study of Confucian classics, it's just a matter of tidying them up.

Among them, Zhang Yue has the most experience with Yijing, Shangshu, Liji, and Mencius, so it is expanded into three theories.

Therefore, the twenty treatises were written in one day.

Zhang Shi sees that Zhang Yue stays behind closed doors, and puts all the food outside, except drinking tea non-stop.

One day, the cow drank more than a dozen cups of tea, but he didn't eat a single rice. In the evening, Zhang Yue went to rest after eating.

Zhang Shi couldn't help asking Zhang Qiu: "What kind of homework did your third uncle do? Why didn't you go to the official post and wrote an article for a day since you returned?"

Zhangqiu understood, "Father, the third uncle is going to the university. This is the way the emperors have dealt with the virtuous throughout the ages. If it can be used, he will be a minister in the future."

Only then did Zhang Shi feel relieved, and said with joy: "It doesn't matter if you are a relative or not, as long as you are at home."

As he said that, Zhang Shi said distressedly: "Your third uncle is exhausted after taking such exams and exams. If he fails, I have to make up for him."

The sooner you get up to write the next chapter.

On his writing twenty articles, the following is the policy.

Policies are divided into strategies, policy differences, and policy decisions.

In the policy of farewell, there are also classes for hundreds of officials, An Wanmin, rich wealth, military training brigade and so on.

In the past, Zhang Yue used to write many old articles in Taixue.Now I have picked up more than a dozen proud works and modified them.

These more than a dozen articles are drawn from the Shiji Hanshu, some discussing wealth, some discussing the gains and losses of a dynasty, and some commenting on characters.

These are the basic skills of Tai students.

But halfway through writing, Zhang Yue couldn't help but stop writing.

He compared the [-] scriptures and theories he had written before, and found that the scriptures were different from each other.

The more Zhang thought of this, he couldn't help but feel chills.

When he entered the Taixue, Hu Yuan taught himself to be enlightened and effective.

Now my twenty scriptures and treatises are full of beautiful flowers, and my policy theory is also brilliant in writing, citing scriptures and classics, and every sentence has its source.

But it's too loose and can't be consistent.

When Zhang Yue saw this, he couldn't help but think that I also made this mistake.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yue broke into a cold sweat, but he also thought that the imperial examination articles don't have to be so fussy, but he couldn't bear it in his heart.

During the imperial examination, one question is written for one question, sometimes you have to figure out the examiner's preferences, and sometimes your own inspiration emerges.

But the volumes are different, and the strategy of the fifty articles must be consistent, that is, the words of a family.

For example, the core of the Analects of Confucius is the character Ren.

Zhu Xi's Confucianism is a word of Li.

Lu Jiuyuan's heart learned a heart character.

Such fifty treatises and policies seem to be separate, but they are combined into one treatise.Otherwise it is eloquent.

But how difficult it is to form a family at this age.

Zhang Yue looked at the previous article, and found that the previous article was indeed written by himself.That's where the previous knowledge and kung fu lie. Now that I re-read it myself, I have already found that there are many immature places.

Zhang Yue looked at the article and thought hard about it, and finally made a decision between abandoning or not.He bit it and burned all the dozen or so policy articles he wrote with pride.

Zhang Yue simply lay on the bed and fell asleep unconsciously.

Between the heaven and the earth in his dream, the books he had read since he was a child and the articles he had written appeared in front of him, and he sorted them out.

This sleep Zhang Yue slept from noon to midnight.

Zhang Yue didn't wake up from his dream until he heard the knocking sound in the alley.

Zhang Yue put on his clothes and walked to the atrium, but saw a solitary moon above his head shining all over the sky.

Zhang Yue felt alienated at this moment, as if he had been forgotten by the world.

Zhang Yue lowered his head and saw that the pond in the courtyard was full at some point, and the clear water reflected the lonely moon.

Zhang Yue sat by the pool and reached out to touch the moon.

But seeing the pool rippling, the bright moon broke and became round again.

Zhang Yue couldn't help being touched, and his heart was clear at the moment, so he went back to the room to continue the candle and wrote another article before the case.

Zhang Yue himself didn't expect that because of entering a paper for a compulsory examination, it would become an opportunity to consolidate his knowledge.

Three days later, Ouyang Xiu sent Ouyang Fa to Zhang Yue's home to pick up the papers and prepare to send them to officials of the two systems.

But was turned away, Tang Jiu told Ouyang Fazhang Yue had been writing articles painstakingly these days, and no one should disturb him.

Ouyang Fa was also surprised, and went back without saying anything.

When he came back three days later, Ouyang Fa was told that he still hadn't finished writing.

After waiting until May, Ouyang Fa learned that he hadn't finished writing at least when he went to Zhang Yue's mansion. This time it was Ouyang Fa's turn to be uneasy.

Because the system exam is on July 25th, but all the other candidates have already submitted their admission papers to the ministers of the two systems, but Zhang Yue is still thinking about something.

If he missed the deadline, wouldn't he come back in vain this time?
