When Xie Shu heard this, his eyes lit up slightly, that's why.

It is a very lucky thing that the teacher can understand my own thoughts as well as my own on Fu Lun.

Jiang Hong looked at Xie Shu, and his tone was full of deep meaning: "So, I have always believed that it is the right way to learn from literature and get sick, and to learn from practice."

But at this time, Jiang Hong looked solemn, and changed the subject: "But Rong Zhan, you have to know that the examination room is changing rapidly, and any mistake may waste years of time! What if the chief examiner is not me, or I didn't check each test paper one by one?"

When Xie Shu heard this, his heart was shocked: "The teacher means..."

At this time, Xie Shu had already understood Jiang Hong's words, if there was no such a coincidence that day, Zhang Sheng would undoubtedly lose...

But Xie Shu's doubts were not dispelled. If the teacher's intention was only to remind him of this, there is no need to tell himself what he thinks is the way to acquire talents.

At this time, Jiang Hong murmured: "Rong Zhan, are you curious now, since I appreciate practical learning to judge talents, why didn't I continue this way in the imperial examination?"

Xie Shu heard the words and said solemnly: "The student does have this question in his heart, but the student also knows that since it has always been like this in the past, if he wants to clear up morale and change the course, he will inevitably encounter countless difficulties and obstacles. , the teacher must have encountered the same difficulty."

These words seemed to arouse Jiang Hong's unspeakable emotions. He sighed for a long time: "This trend of reforming poetry and prose seems easy, but it is even more difficult. As long as you take the imperial examination Regardless of any style of writing, its carrier is first of all diction, not to mention arguments and scriptures. This poem has been famous for its gorgeous diction and rigorous rhythm since ancient times.

Splendid diction does not mean eloquent writing, and strict rhythm does not mean dull writing. It is a pity that most people do not understand this truth. Finally, because of the utilitarian nature of the imperial examination, the poems and proses become complicated and dense, without a trace. meaningless. "

After Jiang Hong finished speaking, he calmed down his emotions and said, "Rong Zhan, I'm telling you this today to make you clear that you can have your own ideas on academic writing, and I encourage you to have these ideas, because it It’s not wrong, but the imperial examination is an exam that doesn’t ask about the process, but only about the results. Before you pass the exam, no matter how many ideas you have, it’s useless.”

Hearing Jiang Hong's words, Xie Shu's doubts just now disappeared, and he still had a deep understanding.

It's not that he hasn't experienced the exams. Xie Shu was one of the best in many exams, and it's the same with the imperial examinations. As long as it's an exam, there are drawbacks.

For example, their criteria for selecting talents is based on the ability to take exams and memorize and solve problems, but this does not mean that this is not advisable.

But under the constraints of social development and productivity levels in ancient times, this is already a good way, but... not the best way.

Xie Shu saw that there was still a bit of sadness on the gentleman's face, and said softly: "Sir, I understand your good intentions, and the gentleman wants to tell the students to be cautious when facing the imperial examinations. You can't act recklessly, you need to focus on test-taking, and there must be no mistakes. Students will remember the teacher's teachings.

But sir, I still think this "Ode to Origin" is very well written. The students privately think that Senior Brother Zhang Sheng is able to write such a fu theory, and he is also a very talented person. He may not be unaware of this.But it's still the same, maybe it's because of my husband...he understands, and my husband can know it. "

Xie Shu changed his address and called Zhang Sheng "Senior Brother" because he remembered something. The chief examiner of the examination has another title called "Zhi Gong Ju", which is only for very famous ministers. serve.

In addition to the relationship between candidates and the examiner, those who know the exam and those who pass the exam actually have a kind of friendship between teachers and students. After passing the exam, the students will also prepare gifts to meet the examiner, which is called "" seat lord".

For the disciples, the master's kindness is as heavy as a mountain.

Because only the chief examiner has the real power of choice, even if the other deputy examiners disagree, as long as the chief examiner thinks that this person can pass the imperial examination, he can also decide his ranking.

For the students, the host's preference is the most important thing, so Xie Shu guessed that Zhang Sheng should have chosen to write such a essay after knowing that the examiner was a teacher.

Jiang Hong was slightly taken aback, he didn't expect Xie Shu to say such a thing.

However, Jiang Hong recalled the past. After he selected Zhang Sheng's essays from the finalists, he looked at his answers for the next two exams. They all did well, so Jiang Hong chose him as the No. .1 Membership.

After the exam, Zhang Sheng also handed over invitations and gifts to his family like other successful candidates back then.

But for Jiang Hong, he has never cared about it, and he doesn't need others to thank him for it. Besides, the customs between the seat master and the disciples often lead to interests and collusion. Jiang Hong didn't see any of them back then.

But later, after Zhang Sheng entered the Hanlin Academy, he still treated him very politely. This time he left the capital, he also came to see him off in person.

Jiang Hong withdrew his thoughts, looked at Xie Shu, and smiled a little more in his eyes: "Maybe so, but this method is not advisable. The way of poetry and prose still depends on diction and rhythm."

Xie Shu smiled lightly and said, "Sir, I want to try both of these styles, please teach me, sir."

In Xie Shu's view, if one wants to do something, one must do it perfectly, and the same is true for him in modern examinations.

It is not enough to only have one way of solving problems. It is best to know all of them. Only in this way can we be considered as prepared.

A trace of surprise flashed in Jiang Hong's eyes when he heard the words, but he did not refuse, but nodded and said: "That's fine. How about it, I will give you another Fu Lun today. This Fu Lun was also written on the same day. Gorgeous but not impetuous, rare and fresh, you take it down and study it carefully, and I will teach you tomorrow."

At this time, Jiang Hong thought of another thing and said: "By the way, brother Zuo Ran is coming to my house, you can go with me to see him when the time comes, he said that he accepted a lover a few years ago, I don't know how."

When Jiang Hong was 30 years old, he left Jinling for the capital. He naturally knew Zuo Ran, the great Confucian in Jinling, but the relationship between the two was actually just a casual acquaintance. His family was very poor, and he had no choice but to live in Qixia Temple to study hard, and only then did he get to know Xuanzhen.

Xie Shu was a little ashamed when he heard this, and said, "Sir, his student is Wang Jing, and he passed Jie Yuan in the provincial examination last year, and his student is far behind."

Jiang Hong stared at him indifferently and said, "So what about Xie Yuan? The township exam is just a local exam, and those who preside over the exam are not good at all. Besides, can the students I like be better than other students?" Bad people?"

Xie Shu showed a somewhat helpless smile. Although he knew that the teacher's words were out of the mentality of protecting his shortcomings, the provincial examination is also a provincial examination, how can it be so simple?

But he understood the teacher's kindness.

Xie Shu said earnestly: "Students must work hard and will not disappoint Mr.'s expectations."

After Xie Shu got the second Fu Lun from Jiang Hong, he began to study it.

This Fu is naturally also called "Origin Fu". The person who made this Fu is called Jiang Anhui, who has also entered an official career. Now he is serving as a servant in Zhongshu Province, following the emperor's side. At the same time, it also means writing poems and Fu for orders. This man's literary talent is very good.

Xie Shu read it from the beginning to the end. This Fu is about the origin of all things. Among them, the scenes of prosperity and decay are mostly described by the scenery, and finally express emotions. This is the most orthodox way of writing the scene.

From the perspective of language form and rhetoric, its language is gorgeous and mostly uses parallelism. In this way, it is easy to fall into the disadvantages just mentioned, but it can still make the teacher give a clear evaluation. The method of laying out, but not a lot of concentration, avoids tediousness and pretentiousness, coupled with expressive emotions, the ups and downs of the article, retaining the gorgeous and dignified features of the Fu style.

Seeing that the time set by the teacher was not over, Xie Shu returned home.

The so-called Weishi is from [-]:[-] to [-]:[-] in the afternoon, and it is already early summer, so there is still a long time before the sunset.

But when he got home, Xie Shu found out that Mr. Lang was not at home. He asked the servant girl to find out that Mr. Mr. Wen went out at noon, but he didn't know if something happened and he never came back.

Xie Shu simply read a book on the first floor of Tingyuyuan, while waiting for the gentleman, until the setting sun hovered in the sky, and Yu Chuxi appeared in the sunset.

Before Yu Chuxi entered the door, he had been talking to Feng He, his brows were slightly frowned, and there was a rare look of sadness on his face.

But after seeing Xie Shu, the corners of Yu Chuxi's lips could not help but curl up slightly, revealing a slight smile: "You came back so early today?"

Xie Shu nodded, he closed the scroll, and handed it to the ink washer next to him, but his eyes were fixed on Lang Jun's picturesque eyebrows. Today, Lang Jun is dressed in a dignified manner, with a colorful dress and crown belt, and bright colors, which complement him even more. She has black hair and snowy muscles, and her eyebrows and eyes are somewhat elegant.

But it's not like Xie Shu didn't fail to see the slight sadness that was shrouded in Lang Jun's expression just now, that sadness is so noticeable, like a few wisps of cloud and rain on the top of a green hill, blinding his eyes.

But now, there is a brisk smile on Lang Jun's face, as if gathering the sunset glow in the sky, his eyes are so clear looking at him, his thick eyelashes are slightly curled up, as if there are dancing stars.

Xie Shu couldn't take his gaze away from Langjun's face. Yu Chuxi couldn't help but shift his eyes when he looked at him like this. Why did he look at him directly today?

Xie Shu came back to his senses at this time, he coughed lightly, and did not ask Lang Jun immediately, but after entering the vice hall with Lang Jun, he looked deeply at Yu Chu and said, "Lang Jun, what happened today?" ,Can you tell me?"

Yu Chuxi might as well be asked by him, so he opened his eyes slightly, and shook his head subconsciously, but he looked at the man in front of him.

His gaze was as gentle as water, and his voice was as gentle as the wind, making it hard to refuse.
