There are always people in this world who are not used to seeing others proud, and they always have to pull people down and sit on an equal footing with themselves before they are satisfied.

Lin Yanchao looked at this person, thinking that it is not easy to take the exam for a child at the age of forty, but you are not satisfactory, how can I hinder you, we have no grievances in the past and no hatred in the near future.

The man said: "Since the head of the case agrees, then please let me take a look, and then I can prove the innocence of the head of the case." ”

Lin Yanchao smiled and said: "It's okay to see it, but during the Houguan County exam, some people were jealous of my article, and they posted it to the government without authorization, and mentioned the matter of learning the Taoist Yamen, and they were finally disqualified from the exam, but you have also heard about it." What are you prepared for? ”

The man said: "Of course I heard about it, but I'm different from them, the government also issued a notice before, saying that if there are any more candidates who attack the article, either they don't take it, or they are at the bottom of the list, this is what the people of the government mean, I just follow the rules, and the government can't go back on its word!" ”

Lin Yanchao nodded and said, "You have some truth in that. ”

Speaking of this, Lin Yanchao looked at Governor Chen and said: "Lord Futai, since the student's name is suspected, according to what this person said, take out the student's Cheng Mo and make it public!" ”

Governor Chen nodded and said, "It's okay." Priest Li of the ceremonial room. ”

The government and the county government generally have six rooms, and the functions are almost the same.

When the next government official stepped forward, Governor Chen asked, "How is Cheng Wenyu written in the government test?" ”

The official said: "The top ten have already written several copies of the reputation, and they are ready to report to the Dao, the political secretary, the secretary, and the governor." ”

Governor Chen said: "Very good, then you will write the volume of the reputation of Lin Yanchao, the head of the case." Take them all. ”

"Yes."

Soon, the government officials took about seven or eight copies of the papers and handed them to the Chen governor's house.

Governor Chen held the scroll in one hand and said to the children: "You have been studying hard for ten years, and this government also understands that it is not easy for you to study, but reading requires a practical book, not staring at others!" ”

Governor Chen's words were peaceful, but goosebumps were already erected behind many children present.

Only the scholar who questioned Lin Yanchao replied loudly with his head held high. "The late-born marquis Wang Yuzhi. Thank you for your teachings. ”

All the children shook their heads secretly, this strange thing really came out of nowhere, and it was an eye-opener to see it today.

Lin Yanchao is also a heart, this person is also a character, if my Ming scholars had the backbone of you, they would not have died in seventy years, but unfortunately the infighting is so powerful, there is a hairy use.

Governor Chen didn't get angry but laughed: "The scroll is here, don't take it to see it yet." ”

After finishing speaking, Governor Chen's scroll was put down. Wang Yuzhi unceremoniously took the scroll and read it seriously, and the other children took it and browsed it.

At this time, several children gathered together and commented on Lin Yanchao's article.

After a while, Lin Yanchao walked up to Wang Yuzhi and asked, "Brother Wang, have you seen similar articles before?" ”

Wang Yuzhi was silent for a while, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead and said loudly: "Don't be complacent, even if Wang hasn't seen it." Haven't any of the people involved here seen each other? ”

Weng Zhengchun stood up and said, "Brother Wang, you are very wrong. The first few articles on the case, with clear and strange words, are all new works, and they are by no means works of previous years. ”

Wang Yuzhi said with strong words: "Why can't it be an old work, you look at the first article, and use more four or six prose." Piling up words, at a glance, you can see that it is an article from the hands of Jiajing's former corrupt Confucianism. I remember seeing something like this in an anthology. ”

"Which anthology do you want to talk about?" Lin Yanchao asked.

Wang Yuzhi quibbled; "It's been a long time, I don't remember."

Gong Zinan also said: "If it is an article of suppression, the style of these three articles is different, but you see. These three articles are in the same vein, and the choice of words and sentences is obviously from the same person's hand, if it is an attack article, how can it be so appropriate. ”

"This." Wang Yuzhi was speechless.

The children below also unanimously said that they had not seen similar articles.

Wang Yuzhi's face turned red, and finally admitted his mistake to Lin Yanchao in court.

Governor Chen said at the moment: "The articles of the government examination will be included in the list of questions, if there is a mistake in it, it will not cause others to laugh." Wang Yuzhi's mansion didn't want to spare you, but after you took the exam for many years, this time you made up for the children's birth, and the mansion will not punish you, but you are not qualified to participate in this mansion banquet, go back! ”

Wang Yuzhi hid his face and retreated.

At the following banquet, all the children also took Lin Yanchao's article and discussed.

Originally, Lin Yanchao was questioned completely, but now everyone has no prejudice against these three articles.

Studying Cheng Wen, who can rank first in the government exam, is a must-do for every candidate, whether you pass the exam or not. Even Lin Yanchao's Cheng Wen will be appreciated and analyzed by every Confucian child in the social science academy in Fuzhou Prefecture who is interested in the imperial examination.

This is like a senior high school student who has to take last year's college entrance examination questions to test his level, and finally see where the gap between himself and the first paper in the government exam that year is.

It is no surprise that for Lin Yanchao's articles, all the children recognized that the first article was the best, and they liked the beautiful words, and they loved four or six of them. Many children were afraid that they would not be able to remember such good texts, so they memorized the sentences in it on the spot.

As for the second and third articles, the children analyzed the ideas, ideas, and logic of the articles to solve the problem, and compared them with their own articles.

Of course, there are a few people who are not convinced, and they take Lin Yanchao's last five-word and eight-rhyme poem to find fault, but everyone knows that the proportion of poetry in the volume is too low.

Seeing this scene, Chen Nan smiled at Lin Yanchao on the side and said, "See, this mansion takes your article, not for anything else, but for your talent." ”

Lin Yanchao hurriedly said: "Lord Futai has an overreputation, Ye Xianggao, Weng Zhengchun, and Chen Yiyu are in the same case, and their articles are not under the late birth at all. ”

Chen Nan said with a smile: "Their article is good, but all aspects have been decided, and there will not be much breakthrough, but you are different, and the future can be expected." Therefore, this government wants to ensure that you are a showman, and after you are a showman, if you can do it without asking about your career, you are willing to study with peace of mind, and within ten years, you will be a Wang Fengzhou! ”

Comparing himself with Wang Shizhen is also too exalted.

Wait a minute, what do you mean by learning with peace of mind without asking about karma? Could it be that Chen Nan took himself so that he didn't want to take the imperial examination and go to study?

Chen Nan said: "If you are interested in the imperial examination, your heart is the desire for profit, and you are easy to be anxious for quick success, and you will be an official in the future, and you are annoyed by the case, how can you settle down and do your studies." You can't have both, have you figured out the trade-offs? ”

Lin Yanchao fell into contemplation, at that time, several famous Confucians, such as Wang Xuedaru He Xinyin, did not appear in his life, lectured in all directions, and spread knowledge. Luo Rufang was selected for the promotion, and consciously did not believe in my studies, and could not be a scholar, and studied in the township for ten years and did not participate in the imperial examination.

There is another Confucian who is as famous as Wang Yangming, and he resolutely burned the road to lead him not to go to the imperial examination, and immersed himself in learning for several years. Twenty years later, there was Liu Zongzhou, who was admitted to the Jinshi, did not want to be an official, and angrily studied at home for ten years, and eventually became a generation of Confucians.

These are all good talk.

After listening to Chen Nan's words, Lin Yanchao immediately replied: "Students think that being an official is to be an official, and learning can also be obtained in being an official. Students think so, I don't know if it's okay? ”

Chen Nan smiled when he heard this: "If you have ambitions, you can do your best, don't ask me." (To be continued......)
