Chapter 122
At ten in the morning the next day, most of the candidates were still drowsy in the examination room.
Zhang Mu was no exception. He fought with mosquitoes all night last night, sweating and his clothes were stuck to his body, and he felt very uncomfortable.
At this time, with the sound of several gongs, Zhang Mu opened his eyes.
Today is the second session of the college entrance examination. The questions have not been announced yet. The candidates opened their sleepy eyes and looked forward to today's questions.
The first session of the college entrance examination must be a timely text, but I don’t know what to take in the second session. It usually depends on the interests of the examiner.
The content is nothing more than strategy, judgment, excuse, expression, internal medicine, and even test poems.
The second game is usually used as a supplement to the first game, and if it is a provincial examination, there will be a third game.
The purpose was to use the results of the second or even the third game to determine the top three rankings when Wen could not judge the top three.
Whether to pass the exam can be clearly seen by only reading the first episode.
Therefore, starting from the Ming Dynasty, candidates paid special attention to the eight-legged essay. The quality of the eight-legged essay directly determines the fate of the candidates.
The rest is just a supplement. If you can’t do a policy, it doesn’t matter. Anyway, as long as you write a good eight-legged essay, you will pass the exam.
It’s just that if you can’t be the top three, who can you scare?
To put it bluntly, ranking is just the icing on the cake.
Just like in modern society, we only look at the college entrance examination results. As for other morality, intelligence, physical fitness, aesthetics and labor, it is just a supplement. Anyway, if it is not the art exam, it doesn’t matter.
After all, the imperial examination is just a skill of writing, so sometimes when determining the level of the situation, it is inevitable to have differences. It is reasonable to supplement the second and third games.
While Zhang Mu was thinking about it, he started to light the light board again, and the topic of the second scene began to be announced.
Zhang Mu looked at everyone around him with a much relaxed expression on his face. After all, the first exam was the real fatal exam.
Zhang Mu looked up at the lamp board, and there were two questions on it, both of which were test poems. The first question was: Shocking the pheasant and flying the eagle, and the second question was: The shade of summer wood and yellow orioles.
After Zhang Mu finished reading it, the yamen officers began to deliver the scrolls.
To put it bluntly, I write poems, but there are strict requirements, such as using official rhymes, all of which are in a straight line.
Except for the first couplet and the last couplet, there is no need to be a dual pair, the other couplets require a dual pair of "Zhu two-line term".
In terms of using rhyme, we must strictly abide by the "Eight Pills", that is, the rhyme is produced, the rhyme is reversed, the rhyme is concentrated, the rhyme is combined, the rhyme is mixed, the rhyme is silly, the rhyme is dumb, the synonym and the rhyme are not used.
To put it bluntly, it must be written in the eight-legged essay.
Wu Xuezheng started patrolling the field with his hands on his back. When he walked to Zhang Mu, he nodded and smiled slightly.
He has read Zhang Mu's three articles yesterday. If nothing unexpected happens, the head of the case will be her.
Seeing Zhang Mu yawning and having already spread the test paper, it made him curious.
The first test is the candidate's basic skills, and the second test focuses on talent. If there is a third test, it usually depends on the candidate's insights on practical affairs and government affairs.
The college entrance examination is just the last one for the Tongsheng exam. Most of the candidates who participated are not very old for many years, so they generally do not take the third exam.
Zhang Mu picked up his pen and pondered for a moment.
It is also necessary to solve the problem when trying to write poems, and the difficulty is quite considerable.
"Shocking the Phoenix to Fly Eagle" comes from Geng Xin's "Winter Sailing in the Winter"
The original sentence is "Shocking the pheasant and flying to the eagle, and flying apes watch the arrows turn"
So Zhang Mu thought about it for a while, then picked up his pen and wrote: "A hundred and empty texts are empty, and the eagle returns to the ground."
When Wu Xuezheng saw this, he nodded slightly. He always thought that Zhang Mu had a deep foundation in Shiwen, but he didn't expect that miscellaneous studies were also very insightful.
Generally, the title of the poem in the test is to pick a sentence from the poems of the predecessors, or to choose an allusion or an idiom. If the examinee does not know the source of the question, he will not be able to start writing.
When solving a question, you usually split the original sentence and point out the word in the question, which is called solving the question.
Zhang Mu used "The Eagle plundered back to the ground" to point out where this poem came from.
Next is the title: "How to shock the shadow of the pheasant and chase the birds and birds flying"
This sentence fills in the remaining words in the title. The previous sentence has already used the eagle, and the remaining shock, pheasant, pedal, flying, and further points out the meaning of the title.
Next, there is no difference from the eight-legged essay. It requires stocks, medium-level stocks, back-level stocks, and bound stocks.
Immediately afterwards, Zhang Mu began to write: "Se Wood is evaded by Luo, and his heart is evaded by wild violations; most of them are because the soul is not determined, and he does not know the plan without any mistakes;"
When Wu Xuezheng saw this, he nodded and said intimately: "This kid is indeed a talent. No wonder His Majesty insists on letting him leave. Although civil officials are not yet in the past dynasties, they are still civil officials in the end. This kid is so young that sooner or later will become a big climate."
At this moment, Zhang Mu had already started to buy: "The road asked about the golden eyes, the wind was blowing away the iron power; the wings were so sad that they lost their wings in an instant."
At this time, the Hangzhou prefect and several other examiners also came over. They looked down and saw the test poem written by Zhang Mu, and nodded.
Then Zhang Mu pondered for a while, thought carefully, and then wrote: "The monkeys still turn around when they hugged the woods, and the birds in the forest were also rare."
The last one was finished, and the shovel wrote: "There is no hunting feathers on the mountain ridge, so I'd rather cherish my sweater."
The test poems mainly focus on the rhyme of the parallelism, which depends on the candidate's literary skills. As for artistic conception, it depends on talent.
Zhang Mu's poem was written in a very artistic way and was already a masterpiece. Wu Xuezheng nodded and left quietly with his hands on his back. The Hangzhou magistrate and others hurriedly followed him.
"This Zhang Mu is so young, with such a deep foundation, his literary talent, and his knowledge of the past and the present. It's not simple. If he doesn't click on his case this time, it would be like his official cheating. What do you think?" Wu Xuezheng said with a faint smile.
The professors and the teachers followed behind him also nodded, and the Hangzhou prefect quickly flattered: "It's really rare. From the county examination, the government examination, to the hospital examination, I won a small three-yuan first. If he participated in the provincial examination this year, I don't think the problem was big. If he could win the **, the face of Wu Da will be completely gone by then."
"Yes, yes, since the Taizu of this dynasty was found, there has never been a sacred person since he was admitted to the imperial examination. If this kid had the luck, he would be the first person to create the world." A teacher said flatteringly.
Wu Xuezheng smiled faintly and didn't say anything more. He has been an official for so many years and has been very cautious in his words and actions, because he knew that the little Sanyuan Rongzhong was difficult, but it was difficult.
The so-called ** means first in the provincial examination, first in the imperial examination, first in the palace examination.
The first place in the provincial examination, the first place in the imperial examination, the first place in the imperial examination, the first place in the palace examination, the top scorer. There are very few people who can win three yuan in a row, and they can almost be ignored.
After Zhang Mu finished writing, he began to copy yesterday's articles and today's test poems. Then he carefully checked them, and the afternoon was already unknowingly.
Accompanied by the sound of a gong, Zhang Mu mixed among the candidates and left the dragon gate.
