Rise From the Humble

  Chapter 199 Accident in Exam

  Light as a cicada's wings and white as snow, trembling like fine silk without hearing a sound.

  The township examination is not comparable to the Tongsheng Examination, even the draft paper is so excellent. Zhu Pingan Zhanping just recorded the draft paper of the exam questions, and he is full of praise for the quality of the draft paper.

  This three-day and two-night exam requires a total of seven eight-part essays, three four-book eight-part essays, and four five-class eight-part essays. The amount of this kind of questions varies from person to person. Some candidates may finish it in less than two days, but some candidates can't finish it in three days and two nights. After Zhu Pingan read all the exam questions, he felt that he could finish it at night without needing it.

  Dip the brush in ink, spread out another draft paper, and Zhu Pingan began to work from the first step.

  The first question is the meaning of the Four Books: "A gentleman is ill and his name is not well-known."

  This is a very standard stereotyped four-book righteousness, which comes from "The Analects of Confucius. The Fifteenth of Wei Linggong". This sentence means that Confucius said: "The last grudge of a gentleman is to die without being praised by others."

  This is a heartfelt statement from Confucius, life is nothing but fame and fortune. The word "name" has made so many teenagers lose their heads and shed so many heroic tears! The geese pass by and leave their voices, and the people suffer from no name. Although Confucius himself repeatedly said that "people don't know but don't feel stunned", he also lamented that "no one knows me!" "Spring and Autumn" is also for "seeing oneself in later generations". ("Confucius Family") To put it bluntly, it is "a gentleman who died of illness and died without a name."

  Therefore, Confucianism does not dislike duplication of names, and it does not mean that it does not like "giving fame to the body" (Mencius's words), but it is just opposed to being overly affectionate, trying to gain fame, and deceiving the world and stealing fame.

   This sentence is easy to understand and simple to do.

  Zhu Ping'an almost dipped in the ink, and began to write, as if a **** was helping him.

   "Without the name of future generations, the sages worry about it."

  This sentence is breaking the question, it can be said that it is a very standard breaking the question, the reputation cannot be spread in later generations, this is what the sage is worried about.

  After solving the problem, Zhu Pingan dipped the brush on the inkstone and continued to write:

   "It is not necessary to have a husband's fame at one time, but it is indispensable to have a reputation in later generations. Therefore, a gentleman does not seek fame, but he has to suffer from it.

   Master Ruo said: Those who have a good name are also the constant affection of people. Therefore, when a corporal asks for a name, one should not be impatient, but I hate his name for a short time, not the name for a lifetime. If you are a gentleman, you will know that the trial is here.

  Gai has something bigger than this, and there is something longer than this. If the husband camps between day and night, he is looking for speed, but is it like that for a good name? "

  In less than a stick of incense, Zhu Pingan finished writing the first stereotype. After writing the first stereotyped essay, Zhu Pingan dried the draft paper full of words on the table for a while, so as not to stain the test paper with ink from the handwriting.

   While drying the draft paper, Zhu Pingan went on to look at the second question.

  The second question is a bit similar to the re-examination of the last college examination, but it is not exactly the same. The topic is this: A gentleman who is not serious is not powerful, learning is not firm, the Lord is faithful, and those who have no friends are not as good as themselves, do not be afraid to correct their mistakes.

  The last re-examination of the college examination only took the final "don't be afraid to correct it if you pass it", but this time it took a whole sentence.

  Don’t underestimate this difference, the way of answering the question is completely different, last time it was only for “Don’t be afraid to correct the mistakes”, this time it’s for the whole sentence. The meaning of this sentence is: If a gentleman’s behavior is not dignified, he will have no majesty. If his attitude is not dignified, his knowledge and learning will not be consolidated. To be a man is to be loyal and keep promises. Don’t make friends with people who are not as good as yourself. If you make mistakes, Just don't be afraid to correct.

  Regarding this question, Zhu Ping’an broke it like this: “A gentleman’s learning requires him to have his own quality and he must do his best.”

  While thinking and splashing ink, Zhu Pingan completed this eight-legged essay in one go without rushing.

   After finishing these two stereotyped essays, it was only noon. Zhu Pingan put away the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and pressed it down with a ruler to prevent the north wind from blowing away.

   Then I packed up the dormitory and put it in a resting state, preparing to take a short rest and take a nap.

  However, this dormitory is too cramped, and I am not yet at full height, so I can't stretch my legs, so I can only rest with my legs curled up. But just when Zhu Ping'an was about to close his eyes, he heard a miserable roar from the next door, which completely wiped out the drowsiness that Zhu Ping'an had just brewed.

   "Fuck, the old paper is full of pages!"

  After this miserable roar, there was a sound of thump, thump, thump, and if I guessed correctly, it should be this buddy hitting the wall.

   Then, there was another roar full of anger, which was another person's voice, as if he had the hatred of killing his father and taking his wife from the owner of the first sound.

   "Dun Lun, your mother, I was so scared that I fell off the pen, and the test paper was completely stained!"

   Well, one wrote the answer on a series of pages, and the other, who was frightened by his voice, smeared the test paper with ink. The one who wrote the series of pages is definitely going to fail the rankings, so he was so miserable when he found out; but the second man deserves sympathy. The buddy who wrote the series of pages was so scared that the brush dropped and stained the test paper. A large group of ink marks will definitely be treated as cheating by leaving a mark, and it will also fail the ranking.

  Fortunately, I was resting, otherwise I might have contaminated the test paper due to his sudden voice.

Soon, an invigilator led four sergeants over, confiscated the test papers of the two without further ado, and then the four sergeants stuffed the two with cloth **** like wolves, She dragged it out.

  These two buddies, this exam is considered a blow, and whether they can take the exam in the future is another matter.

  After this accident, Zhu Ping'an didn't feel sleepy anymore, and restored the dormitory to look like tables and chairs. I grilled the jerky in a charcoal brazier, then took another piece of snacks, and had a simple lunch with plain water.

  After the meal, pack up the things, put away the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and continue to make your own drafts.

  The third stereotyped essay was quite difficult. Zhu Pingan conceived it for about an hour before starting to write, and his writing was much slower than the first two essays. He only finished this stereotyped essay in the afternoon.

  The title of this article has only four words, "Yuanyuan Qiyuan", from "The Doctrine of the Mean", which means that the thoughts of a sage are as deep as a pool of water.

  However, how can this sentence be stereotyped!

  The full text of this sentence is: only the world is sincere, in order to be able to manage the great scriptures of the world, establish the great foundation of the world, and know the cultivation of the world. How can a husband rely on something? The gizzard is its benevolence, the abyss is its abyss, and the vastness is its sky.

  After thinking about it for more than an hour, Zhu Pingan remembered that someone in modern times had explained "The Doctrine of the Mean". At that time, that person said this sentence with the main idea of ​​"the sky does not speak, the earth does not speak, and people stand in the middle."

  Thinking for a while, Zhu Ping'an's frowning brows relaxed, and he started to write, thinking and writing down, and he didn't finish this stereotyped essay until the sun was setting.

  I wrote three stereotyped essays in one day, and I could finish the remaining four in two days with my eyes closed. Zhu Pingan nodded in satisfaction, put away the draft paper he had written, and after dinner, spread out a blanket and fell asleep under the blanket.

  The rabbit fur blanket was very warm, and it was windproof and warm. Zhu Ping'an slept soundly all night. But some people are not so good. At night, the north wind howled, although there was no snow, but it was very cold. Many people, especially the candidates who laughed at Zhu Pingan at the door, were shivering at night, regretting their intestines. It's all blue.

   Gentlemen, Happy Valentine's Day
