Come on, Your Highness

The imperial envoy pondered for a moment and then said: "Don't forget, don't forget; follow the old chapter."

As soon as this question came up, Xiao Hong frowned first. He had already finished studying the "Book of Songs", and he understood the meaning of this sentence.

However, this intention is completely contrary to what He Xichao usually says and does. Since when did He Xichao follow the ancient rules?He can criticize even the sages of Confucius and Mencius!

Wei Guogong was a little worried. He was not afraid that He Xichao would not be able to write an article, but he was afraid that he would be too bold and reckless. If he wrote something that should not be written, the court would be full of quarrels, and the eldest prince and He Xichao would become the target of public criticism.

He felt the need to remind.

However, before he came out, he heard He Xichao ask: "Your Majesty, are the students starting to answer the questions?"

Emperor Tiangan didn't think there was anything wrong with this question, but Xiao Hong frowned. It must not be easy. The courtyard test is a one-day answering time, and the time on the spot today is short, which really made it difficult for this child, so he said: "This is the question, one Is there enough time?"

The words of Emperor Tiangan made all the adults frown, now it is two o'clock, plus one hour for answering, and there is still commentary, returning home, I am afraid that I will have lunch until the end of time.

In the mornings, I would get up before dawn, eat some random food and then come to court. When I stood up this morning, I was already tired and hungry, and my body would not be able to take it any longer.

The minister intends to object, but he has no legitimate reason to think about it. After all, an exam should take two hours.

At this time, the ministers who did not participate in the discussion from the beginning to the end were dissatisfied with those officials who questioned He Xichao's fraud.

The eldest prince is right, all right, there is no evidence and it all depends on suspicion, so why retake the exam?

Besides, they can't eat, and neither can this child, and he has to rack his brains to do the questions. If he doesn't do well in the exam, it seems to be excused.

Most of the ministers felt the resentment and sympathy in their whispers.

Among the cabinet bachelors, someone said to Mr. Xie Ge: "Master Xie, although it is necessary to add another hour, but there are many old people among the ministers. Look..."

Old Xie Ge stroked his short beard, closed his eyes slightly, he had read hundreds of He Xichao's articles, so there was no difficulty in this question.But just because I read too much, I can see the rebelliousness in this child's bones, which is exactly the opposite of this question, and I am afraid that one hour is not enough.

He was about to go out, but He Xichao said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, but it doesn't take that long, half an hour is enough."

As soon as this remark came out, people were taken aback.

The elder Xie Ge withdrew his foot, but looked at He Xichao with a frown.

The kid is arrogant!

This was the voice of everyone, even Emperor Tiangan was shocked, "Half an hour?"

He Xichao smiled slightly, "Yes, it's getting late, and the ministers all went to court early in the morning. The students feel very guilty for delaying this trivial matter."

"You want to, if you can't do the level of the hospital test paper, no matter how nice your words are, it's useless." Doctor Yushi reminded.

He Xichao turned his head to look at him, his clear eyes shone with confidence, and he said word by word: "My lord, the student said, half an hour is enough." Then he faced Emperor Tiangan, bowed and saluted, " Your Majesty, let's begin."

He Xichao added clear water to the inkstone, picked up a stick of ink, and began to grind it unhurriedly.

His technique is beautiful, slow and orderly, with his wrists upright and his eyes serious and focused.

The servant of the Ministry of Rites watched and nodded slightly. He remembered that He Xichao in the examination room was also so calm, with a word of stability revealed all over his body.

No matter how he did in the final exam, even his demeanor at this moment made people full of confidence in him.

Half an hour is one hour for later generations, and the final composition time for the college entrance examination Chinese is usually 45 minutes, which is enough.

It took He Xichao 10 minutes to grind, and within 10 minutes, a thousand-character composition was conceived.

Don't forget, don't forget; follow the old chapter.The purpose of this topic is to see the benefits of Tan Ming following the ancient rules and regulations from various angles. One of the Confucian cultures, when it comes to ancestral precepts, one must admire and admire them. The beginning of all articles is the words of "sages" and "sages". Just like today's Great Qi Dynasty has gone through several generations, but the words of the founder Taizu are still followed by future emperors. It can be seen that they are deeply respected. If they deviate from the track, they will inevitably be criticized and questioned.

This is of course beneficial. Even if you make the same mistakes as the sages by following the ancient system, after all, there are solutions from the sages to rely on. It is very conducive to stability, and it will not attract people because of "introducing the old and bringing forth the new". Unpredictable disaster.Furthermore, the "sages" and "sages" are well versed in the world. Because they have experienced turmoil, they have considered problems in detail and deeply, and they know where the contradictions lie. Therefore, whether it is legislation or regulations, they always adapt to the social development at that time and are conducive to the stability of the rule. Later generations respected.

After talking about these things, Tan listed the benefits one by one, and gave a few more examples. Finally, there is an ending praising Daqi and praising the old system. This is the end of this article.

In an era when Confucianism is prevalent and the sages of Confucius and Mencius are the norms of the world, this article cannot make mistakes. With the addition of writing style and words and allusions, it can be regarded as a good article.

You can use this to give an explanation today.

But He Xichao didn't want to do this.

Regardless of what he told Xiao Hong, the idea that he has been conveying is to be pragmatic and innovative, even Emperor Tiangan, he also wants to try.

He had been in the palace for three years. Although he hadn't had much direct contact with Emperor Tiangan, this young and vigorous emperor was open-minded and diligent every day. He spoke vaguely from Xiao Hong, Xie San, Wei Guogong and Xie Ge. Among them, he could feel that the Emperor Tiangan wanted to do something big.

He doesn't seem to be satisfied with the prosperity of the founding of the country that people sang, because he is in his prime, he still wants to go to the next level and create his own era.

But blindly following the ancient system, the most achievements can be copied, but nothing can be surpassed.

Even because of the limitations of the times, the problems that did not appear at the beginning of the founding of the country have been passed down from generation to generation, and now, some disadvantages and omissions can no longer be covered only by the ancestral system.

If Emperor Tiangan wants to achieve a great cause, the best way is to break free from the shackles of the ancestral system, keep pace with the times, adapt to local conditions, and always find the contradictions that hinder the development of the country. Solving the contradictions is the root of truly promoting social development!

But this positive idea only has the emperor's response, if there are no officials to follow, or even oppose, it will be a disaster.

Although the ancestral system seeks stability, it also imprisons people's thinking, causing laziness in thinking and inertia of muddling along.

There are not a few Jinshi selected from the Four Books and Five Classics who only have mouths but no brains. From the very beginning, Confucius and Mencius put on ideological shackles. How many people can break free later?Who dares to ask Confucius, stab Meng, and develop new academics?

Too little!

Looking down at the Hall of Supreme Harmony, how many civil and military officials are still thinking about how to do practical things to benefit the people and develop the country?

The proposal of a new idea is probably not to think about its feasibility and limitations, and to perfect and try it out, but to kill it with one blow and violate the ancestral system.

Thinking of this, He Xichao paused his pen and didn't write any more.

This is the feudal era, so unconventional and unconventional may not be rewarded, but given dungeon treatment in the name of disrespecting the ancestors.

He frowned, and then crossed out the words that crossed the era.

Everyone just watched He Xichao, who was writing vigorously, suddenly stop writing, with a look of embarrassment on his face.

That's right, this question is still too difficult for a nine-year-old child, and the ministers present raised their eyebrows as if it was true.

The nine-year-old desk leader is simply nonsense, half an hour is enough, and there is no ink in his stomach, so naturally it is enough.

Xiao Hong was a little puzzled, he didn't know what He Xichao was hesitating about, he asked the time, and then shouted: "Xichao, there is still time for a cup of tea."

He Xichao raised his head slightly, squinted his eyes, then took the blank answer sheet at the side, and re-copied the honor in clearer and neater handwriting.

When Eunuch Huang shouted: "It's time." He Xichao stopped writing for an instant. He stood up, held the paper respectfully with both hands, and handed it to Eunuch Huang who collected the paper with a slight bow.

Then he left his seat, walked to Majesty Dan, and waited.

His face was indifferent, as if what happened next had nothing to do with him.

Only when he saw Xiao Hong's concerned gaze, he nodded slightly.

Xiao Hong immediately felt relieved.
