The first assistant of the poor family

Chapter 182 From Taige Style to Chaling School
Time flies, autumn goes and winter comes.

In the blink of an eye, it has been three months since the end of the year-end examination.In this year's examination, Xie Shen got a good first-class result, but because he is already a student student, it is really boring that there is no way to get promoted.

Moreover, in the eyes of all the county school students, it is perfectly normal for a small three-yuan winner like Xie Shen to get the first class in the year-old examination.

If Xie Shen got a second-class or even worse result in the test, it would be a sensational thing.

Alas, being famous also has its disadvantages, like Xie Shen's every move is being watched by others, countless people wish him to show his shame.

The young man can only sigh with emotion, the hearts of the world
The end of the year is approaching, and the people of Yuyao City are busy, hurrying up to buy new year's goods.

Xie Shen, on the other hand, has the mentality of not listening to things outside the window and only reading sage books.It has been less than eight months since the scientific examination.During these eight months, he must work hard to improve his writing level and polish his writing style.

Style is a mysterious thing to say, but it is the most important criterion for distinguishing between people.

Throughout the history of the Ming Dynasty, which articles of those Zaifu Shangshu are not unique?
If Xie Shen wanted to imagine them getting closer, the first thing he had to do was to hone his writing style and stick to it unswervingly.

This job looks simple, but it is very important.

If it is not handled properly, it is likely to affect the future provincial and general examinations.

After the eldest brother and sister-in-law went to Hangzhou, Xie Shen hired another four or five nurses from the dental clinic, and now there is no need to worry about safety issues for the time being.

But said that Xie Shen returned home after entering the county school as usual, changed into casual clothes under the service of Shui Yun and came to the study alone.

Sitting down in front of the desk, Xie Shen casually flipped through the booklets of current literature and began to study them.

The so-called honed style does not refer to creating a style out of thin air, but refers to making some subtle changes on the basis of studying the styles of previous famous Confucians.

After all, the group of literati has the best reputation, and as a dignitary in the dynasty, he definitely hopes that more people can move closer to his style.

Let’s just say that Li Dongyang, a famous minister of the Hongzhi Dynasty and the examiner of the undergraduate examination, has a style that is very worth learning.

Speaking of which, Xie Shen would have to thank Wang Shouwen, if he hadn't shown him the brochures of contemporary famous scholars, Xie Shen really wouldn't have been able to find them.

Li Dongyang was a native of Chaling, and he was selected as a Jinshi. Later, Shunliguan selected him as a Shujishi and awarded him the post of editor of the Imperial Academy.

But it seems that this gentleman's official fortune is not very prosperous. Since then, for a long time, Li Dongyang has been wasting time in the Hanlin Academy, without any sign of going straight to the sky.

It wasn't until Emperor Hongzhi ascended the throne today that Li Dongyang's time turned and he made great progress.

You can say that he is accumulating energy, or you can say that he is forbearing.In short, everything changed in the fourth year of Hongzhi. In this year, Li Dongyang was promoted to be the right servant of the Ministry of Rites and concurrently served as a bachelor of attendant, and successfully entered the cabinet to participate in maintenance.

Xie Shen was naturally very clear about what happened after that, Li Dongyang became the most famous of the three elders in Hongzhi, and also the one who had been an official for the longest time.

Moreover, Li Dongyang's literary attainments are also very high. Not only did he single-handedly end the Taige style created by Sanyangge Lao, but he also founded the Chaling School.

It can be said that the stereotyped essay written by Li Dongyang has a strong sense of antiquity.

Li Dongyang himself is a typical minister of poetry and ranks among the prime ministers.

As a time traveler, Xie Shen can naturally look at the problem from a high level.

The easiest thing is to hug your thighs
The Hongzhi Dynasty was a period of carnival among scholar-bureaucrats. Emperor Hongzhi restrained himself and restored the rituals, and demanded himself according to the standards of the ancient sage kings, which naturally conformed to the interests of civil servants.

The leader of civil servants is naturally Li Dongyang.More importantly, Li Xiya has a long political lifespan.Both Liu Jian and Xie Qian have resigned, and Li Dongyang is still in the cabinet alone
If you can study Li Gelao's articles carefully, and then sharpen them a little, you will definitely get unexpected results.

It's a pity that Xie Qian and Wang Hua are not in Yuyao. Otherwise, if Li Dongyang can be caught through these two lines, the road to imperial examinations in the future will be very broad.

Xie Shen casually flipped through an essay written by Li Dongyang.

This Shiwen is nothing else, it is Li Dongyang's Chengwen for this year's Kuichou Science Conference. (Note 1)

For other scholars, the article is freshly released, so it is naturally hot.But for Xie Shen, there was nothing much to look forward to. All he had to do was to decompose the article tediously and look for parts that could be used for reference.

The title is "From Yao and Shun to Tang".

Xie Shen had also read a lot of imperial examination documents in his previous life, so he had some impressions of this article.

"The life of a sage has a constant period, either to teach his way at the same time, or to teach his way to another world."

Xie Shen had to admit that Li Dongyang's opening chapter was very domineering.

Although saints live for a certain period of time, their preaching is not necessarily limited to one time, but may be passed on to future generations.
Immediately afterwards, Li Dongyang said: "The life of a sage is where the Dao lies. It is not that the one who saw it was at the time, and the one who heard it was in the later generations, so which one will pass it on? Mencius narrated the meaning here. It's there."

This is the starting part, there is nothing to think about, Xie Shen continued to look down.
The more he looked at it, the more he felt that the Cheng Wen written by Li Dongyang seemed to have a sense of immortality.Although the language is not flashy, it is full of momentum, which can catch people's psychology and make people can't wait to read on.

In other words, it is Li Dongyang who understands what the stereotyped essay is about and what is the core of writing the stereotyped essay.

This is actually the quality that a master of stereotyped writing should possess.

What is stereotyped essay?It is the most utilitarian and strictest article!
In the examination room, it is unknown what level of performance can be achieved.In this case, it is unrealistic to ask for the article to be written in a hype.

What is Li Dongyang's choice?
He chose the safest way, which is to write in the ancient way!

The writing method of ancient prose is rigid and impeccable.

Such articles will stand out among the pompous and empty talk, and will naturally be favored by the examiners.

Of course, this article is written by Li Dongyang when he was an examiner of the general examination.

Since it is Cheng Wen, there must be enough time to think about ideas, which is naturally much less difficult than the examination room essays.

But these are not the key points, the key point is what Li Dongyang expressed through this article!
A discerning person like Xie Shen immediately saw Li Dongyang's intentions.

The exaggerated style of writing that represents Taige style has become a thing of the past, and what Li Dongyang wants to promote to scholars all over the world is the style of ancient prose!

Note 1: During the imperial examination, the articles written by the officials or those who passed the examination were selected as examples.
