The First Auxiliary Road from the Imperial Examination

Chapter 457 Passing the Ancient Examination
After the ancient exam came in a short time, Sheng Yuan, as a student of Jiujiang Academy, arranged the exam room in the other garden of Jiujiang Academy.

She is no stranger here, she and An Yu Lu Sheng took the test here before.

Sheng Yuan touched the number printed on the test paper. Although this test is not official, the test number is the same as the official test paper.

After thinking about it like this, the examiner in the examination room where she was located arrived as scheduled.

The examiner who came this time is still an old acquaintance, Mr. Chen, Yin of Shuntian Prefecture.

Mr. Chen, who saw Sheng Yuan for the first time, sighed and was speechless.

Thinking about it, unless he was transferred and left, otherwise, his fate with these three people would be inseparable.

and many more!

Mr. Chen thought of the identities of the three candidates in Shengyuan, and suddenly, he felt bad, so he quickly snapped his fingers and calculated.

Putting his own age and the ages of these three people together, and considering the time spent on the scientific examination of the three little dudes...Master Chen was cruel and took the smallest number as the parameter.

His fingers trembled while counting, and at the end he found out with grief and indignation that unless he and these three had a foreign appointment, it would take a long time to be officials in the same dynasty!

Mr. Chen, who got the basic number, wanted to look up to the sky and sigh!
He originally intended to go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate for the elderly, so he immediately canceled this plan!
It's okay to make a transition, but forget about pensions, he doesn't want to confront these three anymore!

Thinking of this, Master Chen's face flashed with determination.

……

Sheng Yuan's nose was itchy, as if hair was sticking to her nose, and she couldn't help but suspect that someone was muttering about her.

But before she could think about it, she saw Mr. Chen sitting on the case solemnly, and she didn't seem very happy about it.

The bored Sheng Yuan murmured to the system in a low voice: "The heavy heart of office workers is the same in ancient and modern times!"

[I'm not interested in being an official anymore? 】The system scratched its head, and Nahan muttered, 【This is an official of the fourth rank of the imperial court! 】

"Probably because he doesn't want to invigilate the exam. There is nothing interesting here for him to pass the time. It would be nice to go back to his study and stay in his own study. If he doesn't eat well, drink well, or rest well here, he will definitely be unhappy." Sheng Yuan nodded firmly.

[I think you are the only one who cares about whether you can eat and drink, okay? ! 】The system doesn't know whether Master Chen has such hobbies, but it is very sure that its host is such a person.

"It's not like this when I become an official in the future! Invigilating exams is better than being an examinee! It's better to watch others write than to make up by yourself." Sheng Yuan was talking, thinking about her future career as an official.

Drink tea, read a book, bask in the sun!

【Host! 】The system crossed its arms and reminded her, 【This is your father's career as an official! 】

"...Ah!" Sheng Yuan was stunned when he heard the sound, then patted his head and sighed, "This used to be my dream too!"

[Hehe, think about the huge amount of points we borrowed, are you sober? 】The system raised the display board, on which a row of numbers flashed excitedly.

"I'll work hard!" In an instant, Sheng Yuan's motivation came, and she clenched her fists to cheer herself up.

The system that originally wanted to agree, noticed that Master Chen was staring at his host nervously, as if he could jump up at any time, and immediately fell silent.

Fortunately, the exam is about to start.

……

Sheng Yuan recorded the exam questions one by one. There are three exam questions this time, namely the interpretation of scriptures, historical theory, and poems.

The title of the scriptures is "a gentleman is safe but never forgets danger".

The topic of the historical essay is "There is no mountain in more than a thousand miles".

As for the poems and prose questions, the examiner announced on the spot: "The sage said the day before yesterday that 'young people have strong spirits', so this test was given this sentence, and the word 'qiang' was used as a five-character six-rhyme poem."

After the exam questions were announced, Sheng Yuan's eyes rolled around, and he finished the poems and prose questions on the draft, and then answered the questions from the beginning.

The first question, "A gentleman does not forget danger", comes from "The Book of Changes Xici Xiazhuan" "So, a gentleman does not forget danger, survives but does not forget death, governs but does not forget chaos; it is Therefore, the body is safe and the family and the country can be protected.”

Sheng Yuan's eyelashes fluttered slightly, and quickly wrote the words "Be prepared for danger in times of peace" on the draft.

Be prepared for danger in times of peace, from "Zuo Zhuan·Xianggong 11th Year", the sentence is: "Be prepared for danger in times of peace, and be prepared if you think about it, and you will be prepared if you are prepared."

As soon as Sheng Yuan turned his pen, he planned to start from the two idioms of "preparing for danger in times of peace" and "be prepared for no danger", and use two examples, one positive and one negative, to demonstrate that "a gentleman is safe but never forgets danger".

Thinking like this, she quickly listed her thoughts one by one.

She didn't turn her attention to historical theory until she had almost filled in the relevant information.

That's right, Sheng Yuan adjusted the way of answering the questions this time. She planned to take advantage of her active thoughts to set up all the shelves for the three questions, and then answer them in order, and then copied them on the examination paper after checking.

Do it when you think of it, Sheng Yuan kept on writing, and continued to organize information on historical topics.

This time, the question "There are no mountains for more than a thousand miles" is taken from the last sentence of "Bianhe Nostalgia No. [-]" by Pi Rixiu, a poet of the late Tang Dynasty.

After Sheng Yuan quickly recalled the whole poem, he immediately set the topic of this historical discussion on "Canal".

After deciding on the specific title, Sheng Yuan was quite interested in silencing the poet's other more famous song "Bianhe Nostalgia".

"It is said that the Sui Dynasty died on this river, and it has been relying on Tongbo for thousands of miles. If there is no dragon boat event in the water palace, Gongyu's merits will not be much."

【Sheng Yuan!Are you free! ] After the system silently copied this beautiful poem into its own memory, it put its hands on its hips and began to teach Sheng Yuan a lesson, 【You are taking an exam!Not poetry parsing! 】

"Quiet!" Sheng Yuan was in a good mood at the moment. Not only did he not notify the main system to put him in confinement, but he also said to him while writing his thoughts, "Since the title this time is taken from "Bianhe Nostalgia", and "Bianhe Nostalgia" There are two poems, so it is natural to think about the two poems together, so that the answers to the questions are more comprehensive, do you understand?"

【oh. ] The system that received the warning from the main system drooped its head and took the initiative to mute itself.

However, Sheng Yuan was so devoted to writing at the moment that he didn't pay attention to the pitiful corner of the system.

Sheng Yuan had a lot of ideas about this historical topic.

Not only starting from the "Canal" itself, analyzing its history and origin, but also writing about its major impact on economy, politics, military, people's livelihood, culture and entertainment;
At the end, she also started from the last two sentences of the second song "Bianhe Nostalgia", and said with emotion: "The same is for the present and beneficial to the future, but if you use your own desires as the source, the people will cry out; People's livelihood and national strength are the first, and then the history will leave a name, which shows that the way to govern the country is to discuss both deeds and heart."

After writing out the framework and key words and sentences in an eloquent manner, Sheng Yuan checked the shape of the characters and the logic of the words. After making sure that there was no problem, he went back to the first question and began to answer.
