"Chen Chusheng? This name is good, but are there any verses? I heard that your son has just thought of the name before he was born!"

"Go and go, I care about poetry every day. I don't have so many poetry. Now Your Majesty still asks me to preside over the Jinshi exam. Can I only write poetry?"

The Jinshi exam is a five-point plan for the current affairs, and a great scripture, which is the short answer of the five-point answer, and a fill-in-the-blank question. However, if the poems and essays are well written, you can add extra points.

Although Guo Hao is familiar with the Seven Classics, he does not understand it, but he is much better than many people. There is no problem with the Ming Classics like this.

As for current affairs, Guo Hao also has his own understanding, but he can only say it with his mouth. If he writes it out, he will probably reveal his feelings because he does not know how to write ancient times.

Not to mention poetry and essays, if he was asked to take the exam, he would pass 100%, so it was not unreasonable for the court to ask Guo Hao to preside over the exam.

"Brother Guo, you are humble again, right? Others don't know, I don't know yet, you are definitely very talented and well-educated.

Even Qiunan was influenced by you and memorized many scriptures, let alone you..."

Chen Lin was halfway through his words, and found that Guo Hao's expression was a little wrong, so he quickly closed his mouth: "Okay, if you don't give me, don't give me, I'll go back first."

Chen Lin left Guo Hao's study, and Guo Hao began to think about the five current affairs.

Current affairs, as the name suggests, are countermeasures to current affairs, that is, discussing national affairs, and are argumentative essays.

The five test questions made Guo Hao a little difficult. Although he had good political science in his later generations, he really had no experience in governing the country.

Since there are no cases to be learned from, Guo Hao simply began to think about the current problems in the court, which were nothing more than considering the four aspects of politics, military, economic and cultural aspects.

In terms of politics, Guo Hao thought of the official mechanism. During the Five Dynasties, the Central Plains regimes mostly followed the Tang system, but this system was obviously no longer applicable.

The three provinces and six ministries are already useless, the Privy Council has the power to dominate, and the military governors take charge of military and political power, which is obviously not a good phenomenon.

But if Guo Hao asked the scholars to discuss this issue, he would definitely have stabbed the hornet's nest. If the rights of the Privy Council and the governor were seized, it would cause chaos if it was not done well.

So Guo Hao just thought about it. Politically, it is not suitable for questioning, so it is military. However, military issues are also very sensitive. The largest legion in the country is in the hands of Guo Wei. If he wants to lay off troops, Guo Wei would not agree.

If the first two are not possible, then only economy and culture will be left.

The economy can discuss taxation, which is a concern for the people, and it’s better to listen to the voices of the masses.

In terms of culture, Guo Hao thought of etiquette. Morality has been deteriorated since the Five Dynasties, and many etiquettes have been lost, which led to a situation where power is in decline.

So Guo Hao wrote two questions on paper: on national taxation and on the restoration and formulation of etiquette.

There were only two of the five questions, and there were three more to think about. Guo Hao simply didn’t care about that many and wrote down three more questions.

"Book of Rites·Great": "In ancient times, those who want to be virtuous in the world should first govern the country; those who want to be victorious must first govern the country; those who want to be victorious must first cultivate their family; those who want to be victorious must first correct their hearts; those who want to be virtuous must first be sincere in their intentions; those who want to be sincere in their intentions, first achieve their knowledge, and achieve knowledge must be investigated.

Only when things are in harmony can you know the truth, only when you know the truth can you be sincere, only when you have the heart is upright, only when your heart is upright can you cultivate yourself, only when your body is cultivated, only when your family is united, only when your country is governed, only when your country is governed, only when your country is governed."

Guo Hao wrote this passage and selected two words from it, investigating things and pacifying the world.

After choosing two more questions, Guo Hao suddenly remembered a person, that is, the later saint Wang Shouren, who had explained the relationship between good and evil and the study of things.

So Guo Hao wrote the last question: The body of the mind without good and non-good, with good and evil movement, knowing good and evil is conscience, doing good and eliminating evil is investigating things, discussing good and evil and investigating things.

After determining the five test questions, Guo Hao was in a good mood and quoted classics. He was absolutely qualified and should not be looked down upon.

As for the test questions of poetry and essays, Guo Hao decided to use "nostalgia" as the topic and asked scholars to write poems or essays, and perhaps some patriots could be found.

The teacher's question was confirmed, and the next day Guo Hao sent it to Feng Dao. Feng Dao looked at it for a long time, looked up at Guo Hao with a shocked expression on his face.

"Old Master, can you do it? Don't look at me like that, just give me a message!"

Guo Hao was a little furious when Feng Dao saw it. After a long time, Feng Dao asked, "Did this last question come from you?"

“This is nature.”

"Then you said these four sentences?"

"when……"

Guo Hao was about to agree, but suddenly realized something was wrong. At this time, before Wang Shouren was born, he spoke out the four sentences he learned from the heart. No wonder Feng Dao's expression turned out to be shocked by these four sentences.

"This is not what I said, but what a saint said."

"I have read the saints? I have read the saints of ancient and modern times, and I have never seen this idea."

"This... I actually saw it from an isolated book. It was a long time ago and there were inevitably records and omissions. The author of this book is Mencius!"

"It turns out that it was Mencius's teachings. No wonder it was so deafening. A good sentence for doing good and eliminating evil is to investigate things, and a word tells the ultimate truth of life."

Guo Hao was relieved when he heard this. He didn't dare to be arrogant anymore. It was reasonable to steal some poems without any trouble, but Xinxue is a Confucian school, so he didn't dare to make it happen.

"I don't think there is any problem with your five questions. You can get both current affairs and knowledge. I think it's OK, but it may be a bit difficult for the students."

"Difficult? Why don't I change it."

"No, wait until Zhang Shangshu comes and let him see it. If he thinks it's okay, then use these five tricks.

As for the topic of poetry, it is remarkable and nothing new. If it doesn’t work, I will discuss it with Lord Zhang again. You will marry the princess soon. Let’s go and do your next job.”

"Thank you, the old teacher."

Guo Hao made a temporary payment and went back to concentrate on preparing for the wedding. Twelve days later, Guo Hao's betrothal gift came. In addition to these rare treasures, there were also a traditional geese, a lamb, and a hu of wine, millet, rice and flour.

In addition, there are also herbs and deer, which are auspicious to express the meaning of blessing; glue, lacquer, rosy bells, mandarin ducks, phoenixes, etc. are used to symbolize the meaning of couples' love of harmony; reeds, cypresses, relics, relic beasts, blessed beasts, fish, geese, nine-son women, etc., which take advantage of the advantages and virtues of each thing to inspire and encourage couples.

However, this is just the first step of adoption. The next step of asking for names is done in advance. Who will let others be the emperor? Otherwise, it should be dominated by the male family.

For a while, Guo Hao began to get busy. In fact, he didn't have to do anything at all, but the Ministry of Rites did not let him be idle.

In Guo Hao's helplessness, he finally came to the wedding day. Although there were many etiquettes, the princess's wedding was still very lively. Guo Wei invited all officials to have a banquet, and the prince consort's mansion also held a banquet.

After a whole day of hard work, Guo Hao drank a lot of wine this time, mainly because he was facing dignitaries. If he was foolish, he would be embarrassed if someone saw it through.

Guo Hao suppressed his drunkenness and entered the bridal chamber. As soon as he arrived at the door, he was stopped by an old palace maid.

"Mr. Prince Consort, you are not afraid of striking the princess because of your alcohol. You should go to take a shower and change your clothes first, and then come to find the princess."

Hearing the old palace maid's words, Guo Hao frowned, turned around to take a shower and change clothes. After a while, he came back and was stopped just as he was about to go in.

"Mr. Prince Consort, you have not saluted the princess yet, you must get the princess' consent."

The old palace maid looked at Guo Hao, and Guo Hao suddenly became angry and stretched out his hand and said angrily: "Where is the crazy woman coming from? Get out of here? I just got married to Yongning today, so you set rules for me. You really think I can bully you!"

After saying that, Guo Yongning pushed the old palace maid aside, and laughed in the room, but when Guo Hao came in, he quickly became serious again.

Guo Hao entered the room and closed the door with his backhand, regardless of the old palace maid. Although this was the son-in-law's mansion, it was also his territory.

Under the reflection of the candlelight, Guo Yongning was wearing a red phoenix crown and red robe. Guo Hao was really drunk. At this time, a heat current surged from his dantian.

"Ahem, Yongning, since you marry me, we will have an equal relationship in the future. Although you are a princess, you are also my wife.

If you are willing to live in peace with me, I will treat you well, and will love you like Fu'er, take care of you and protect you.

So it’s still time for you to regret it now, otherwise after tonight, you will be my Guo Hao’s woman!”

Guo Hao's voice sounded in Guo Yongning's ears. When Guo Hao heard Guo Hao say that he loved her, took care of her, and protected her, Guo Yongning had no thoughts.
