Chapter 122: Entrance Examination in Beijing

When Qin Guan and Qin Wei saw their father, they quickly stepped forward to greet him.

Qin Zhang nodded and said, "Just let the people arrange other things, you brothers will follow me to the study."

The father and son came to the study room, Qin Zhang sat in the main seat, Qin Guan and Qin Wei sat on the chair next to him, looking at their father.

Qin Zhang looked at his two sons carefully and his face calmed down a little. In fact, he is quite satisfied with his two sons now. His eldest son Qin Wei is honest and honest. Although his talent is limited, he knows how to study hard.

The second son Qin Guan used to be a heart-wrenching problem. He always thought he would become a playboy in the future, but unexpectedly, in just one year, he passed the imperial examination and passed the imperial examination one after another, and showed amazing talent in poetry and became the name of a little poet.

My wife wrote to me and said that Qin Guan now knows that he has worked hard and has been studying in seclusion at home for the past few months.

As for finding a concubine in the courtesan, who is not romantic in the young man? Qin Zhang didn't think it was anything, as long as it didn't affect his studies.

"The exam time this year has been announced and will be held on March 18th. The exam is three days. Although there are still three months left, it will pass in a flash. Therefore, you brothers and brothers are not allowed to go out to play at will during this period, and they should devote their attention to studying."

In the last sentence, Qin Zhang looked at Qin Guan and said it.

It's obvious that my dad was mainly warning himself.

The two of them agreed quickly.

Next, Qin Zhang began to explain the situation of the examination to his two sons. He was from a Jinshi and some experience was taught to his two sons. Those candidates who were about to take the examination will also find one or two Jinshi or candidates who had taken the examination to understand the contents of the examination so that they can have a clear idea.

"The imperial examination is different from the college examination. The provincial examination only tests the meaning of the classics, the three items of strategy and poetry, the five questions of the classics, the two questions of strategy and the two questions of the poetry and essay. So you mainly put in these three aspects."

"You have tested all the meanings of the scriptures and used the Chinese sentences of the scriptures as the title to clarify their meanings. It mainly depends on your mastery and understanding of the meaning of the scriptures. I won't say much about this."

"Poetry and essays are the most important thing, and they pay attention to talent on the spot. I don't say much about this. I mainly talk about the topic of strategy and discussion with you."

"What is a policy theory? A policy theory is an article that discusses current political issues and offers suggestions to the court. When answering policy theory, you should remember a few key points."

"When answering questions, you should analyze the rationality in a piecemeal way, solve the problems and solve difficulties, and build reputation between setting up talks. To win the examiner's attention and appreciation of you, you should write more of your own opinions, discuss each matter, and express only one opinion in an article, which is concise and powerful, sharp and sophisticated."

"Of course, we should also pay attention to the preferences of the examiner. The person who presided over the examination this time was Zeng Yu and Zeng Xianggong. Zeng Xianggong was the minister. His governing philosophy was to focus on commercial exhibitions and implement monopoly on tea, salt, iron and wine. Encourage trade circulation, strengthen overseas trade, pay attention to commercial rules, and increase fiscal revenue."

"The establishment of the 'Anji Hall' has adopted the widowed, widowed, orphans, and helped countless suffering people."

After hearing this, Qin Guan felt that Zeng Yu and Zeng Jiao was a capable minister. Qin Guan remembered that his Qin family was dependent on Shen Zheng and Shen Jiao Gong. It is well known that Shen Zheng and Zeng Yu are mortal enemies. Is it that he is from a treacherous minister?

But Qin Zhang's next words immediately overturned Qin Guan's idea.

"But Zeng Yu is also a treacherous person, corrupt officials, gathering officials and wealth, and controlling the government. His party members are spread throughout the Great Zhao State. If there is any discord, he will use ruthless means to attack him."

"Zeng Yu celebrated his birthday a year ago, and the carriage that gave gifts was blocked three streets. It is said that the gifts he received that day were worth as high as several million yuan."

"Those are not counted. The most important thing is that for the Liao Kingdom, which poses the greatest threat to our Great Zhao Kingdom, he advocates land division and seeks peace, does not advocate storm, and pays tribute every year. However, the military of our Great Zhao Kingdom also dispatches military supervisors everywhere to strictly control military supplies, and also orders the military supervisors to control military power, resulting in the generals who fought no command."

"The Liao Kingdom repeatedly invaded the border to test our country, plundering countless food for the people, and the border people were living in poverty. Do you know what Zeng Yu said in the court? He said that this was just a disease of scabies. The Liao people robbed the food for the winter and went back."

"He is so bloody, and the Liao people are all the people of my Great Zhao State."

Speaking of this, Qin Zhang's face was obviously full of anger.

Qin Guan only realized today that his father was an angry young person. Qin Guan asked tentatively: "Father, our Qin family depends on Mr. Shen, so we are considered a war-oriented faction."

Qin Zhang looked at Qin Guan and said, "It can be said that Mr. Shen is dedicated to his duties. If he hadn't been to the court, Zeng Yu would have sold half of the Zhao Kingdom to the Liao Kingdom. Although he Zeng Yu controlled the civil servants, Mr. Shen received support from all the martial arts families."

Qin Guan suddenly understood why he had a fiancee from a martial arts family. It turned out that the root was here.

Qin Zhang also noticed that he was talking about the imperial examination, but now he talked about the factional disputes between the court, and it seemed that it had been a crooked building, so he quickly reclaimed it.

Continuing: "This year is the general examination hosted by Zeng Yu, so if you have any strategy topics involving foreign military use during the exam, don't answer the questions too fiercely, and pay attention to the measure."

Qin Wei asked in confusion: "Father, are you asking us to go against your opinion and instead flatter Zeng Yu?"

After hearing what the elder brother said, Qin Guan couldn't help rolling his eyes.

Qin Zhang looked at the eldest son and said earnestly: "It's not that you can flatter, but that you don't be too intense. Wei'er, my father tells you something, I hope it will be useful to your future life."

"Overhumanity is hypocrisy; excessive self-confidence is conceit; excessive courtesy is pedantic; excessive stretching is indulgence; excessive majesty is arrogant; excessive humility is inferior; excessive easy-going is vulgarity; excessive self-improvement is arrogant; excessive shrewdness is treacherous; excessive frankness is reckless: walking around the world and being able to judge the situation is great wisdom and real ability."

Judging the situation!!!

These four words are the key point.

Qin Guan knew that his father was the kind of person who had ideals but was not pedantic, not the kind of person who would sacrifice his blood for his ideals and rush forward regardless of his care.

Qin Guan likes such people.

Such a person cannot be considered a pure person, but he can be considered a smart person.

Qin Guan was very pleased.

But the next second, Qin Zhang's words made Qin Guan fall into an ice cave.

"Forget it today. Starting tomorrow, I will take the exam for your homework. You two will write at least one scripture every day and one strategy for three days."
Chapter completed!
