Chapter 61: Wooing (Part 1)

Immediately after the winter solstice, it will be time for the synodic class.

In the first half of the New Year's Moon, the class is still written by the mountain chief Lin Yin, and the class is 20 Analects, 33 chapters of the Mean, and 10 of the University Scriptures.

In the second half of the month, I will talk about the Analects, University, the breaking of the Eight Strands of the Mean, and the idea of the big questions, the monthly class revolves around, the Analects, the University, and the Three Eight Strands of the Mean Examination, which is basically the case for the last month's course. Contact the previous month to read Mencius to the end.

Lin Liao had to go through the four books within two months, of course, because the disciples of the outer house had a foundation, and for them, the four books class was just a review. If you really want to study the four books seriously, it will take at least two years.

Mengxue learned how to read and write for three years, pick up the pen and write, read the words and pronunciation, memorize 300,000 thousands, and enrich the virtuous literature. Then study the four books for two years, and then choose one of the five classics as the scripture, study the previous year, and finally study a variety of eight-strand text breaking methods, writing methods, hard work for several years, before having the confidence to go to the child to wipe with people for a long time.

This is the experience of an ordinary reader, and no one asks about the real cold window for ten years.

Of course, there are also various prodigies who have shortened the decade quite a bit.

After the winter solstice, the days of the academy are still so peaceful. But there are more and more people left to read in the Ermei Book House.

The closer the quarterly class is held once every three months, the greater the pressure on the students of the academy to study. Lin Yanchao felt that in the past few days, the words spoken by his classmates have obviously decreased.

Lin Yanchao is not immune to this, his heart is really as Yu Qingzhou said, he really can't relax for a moment, if you slack off, someone will catch up with you behind you.

The synodic lesson has finally arrived.

During the exam, Lin Yanchao felt that there were five or six pairs of eyes, and he glanced at him from time to time.

Lin Yanchao immediately guessed that they were suspicious and peeping at something, and couldn't help but feel a little funny, and sighed in an adult tone, young man, young man.

The exam questions are 20 scripture questions, 5 Moyi questions, and 1 art making question.

There are ten more questions than the last time, which can also show that the academy attaches great importance to the basic skills of disciples.

Of course, whether it is ten or twenty questions, they are all the same for Lin Yanchao, but it takes a little more pen and ink.

After Lin Yanchao read the papers, he answered the questions carefully.

The scripture question, the Moyi question is answered effortlessly, of course, this is not difficult for the fellow students, so the real score is still on the art question.

The last question of the art question, the gentleman, respect the matter and then the food. This question is from the Analects of Wei Linggong. Schoolwork was in a hurry, and in the past half a month, Lin Yanchao has only memorized the Analects, the Analects, chapters and sentences, and only read five or six volumes of the Analects. This Wei Linggong article, he has not memorized it yet.

I didn't memorize it, so I answered it myself, Lin Yanchao memorized so many model texts, and I also listened to Lin Liao's so many problem-solving ideas in class on weekdays, and I felt that my eight-strand essay kung fu had also made a breakthrough recently.

Shijun, respect his things and then his food, in modern Chinese, is to be a civil servant's children's shoes, first do a good job, and then talk about my salary.

Lin Yanchao thought of the annotation on Zhu Ziji's note on this paragraph, a gentleman is also a gentleman, there are officials and guards who practice their duties, and those who are responsible for their words are loyal. It's all about respecting me, and you can't have the heart to ask for mercy first.

Then the problem is explained from the annotation of Zhu Ziji.

After thinking about it for a long time, Lin Yanchao had an idea, and wrote on the scratch paper that the gentleman is to cultivate his job and not seek his own merits.

Lin Yanchao pointed out three points, the gentleman's man points to the gentleman, repairs his job and respects his business, and does not ask for his food after the order, this sentence points to the meaning of the question, there is no omission, it can be regarded as a successful problem. After Lin Yanchao finished writing, he couldn't help but be a little excited, and he finally solved a problem with his own strength, but this problem was solved according to Zhu Ziji's notes, and without his own opinions, it was difficult to give a high score.

Then Lin Yanchao wrote it down step by step, and finally strode forward to hand over the paper to Lin Liao.

Lin Liao took Lin Yanchao's scroll, and didn't look at his scriptures and Moyi, but directly looked at his writings. He glanced at it first, and his expression was a little better, probably because he saw that Lin Yanchao did not use the model text of "Big Questions and Small Questions" to answer the questions, and he was in a better mood.

Lin Liao took a cursory look, and drew a triangle with a red pen on the side of Lin Yanchao's problem.

Lin Yanchao knew that the ancients' routine of revising the volume was similar, where it was well written, it was a circle, then a triangle, and then a vertical one, and a cross at the end. The cross shows that you don't know anything, a vertical means that you barely pass, the triangle can still be seen, and the circle is the best.

Then Lin Liao took the topic in Lin Yanchao again, and started to speak, where he drew a few verticals, of course, the volume of this article is not as good as the last monthly class, and the county school taught him to change it, several small circles of volumes.

But in the end, I did it myself.

Seeing that Lin Liao was about to speak to Lin Yanchao, the outer disciples on the spot all listened with their ears pricked up.

At that moment, Lin Liao said to Lin Yanchao gently: "It's okay to solve the problem, but you can undertake the problem, the share division is still not enough, all in all, it is very progressive." ”

Lin Yanchao said happily at the moment: "Thank you, sir." ”

What does it mean to be very progressive, the disciples are not calm, Lin Yanchao was the second in the outer house last time, and this time he actually made great progress, not to be the first.

The disciples sighed for a long time.

And what Lin Liao said to Lin Yanchao soon reached Chen Xinggui and Yu Ziyou's ears. And from other people's mouths, they also heard that when Lin Yanchao was taking the exam, he was doing papers seriously from beginning to end, and he didn't make cheat sheets.

There's really no way around it.

Before the release of the list this time, no one asked Lin Yanchao how he did in the exam.

In the afternoon, the list was released, and the results came out, and Lin Yanchao took the 22nd place in the outer house.

The disciples were messy in the wind, and they grew from the second to the twenty-second in the outer house, it turned out that Lin Liao said that Lin Yanchao had grown a lot, and this was how he grew.

This world is really incomprehensible. All the disciples are powerless, and they are even lazy to put the list to see Lin Yanchao's scrolls.

And Lin Yanchao still stood in front of the list and read the top three papers.

Ye Xianggao's volume is that the sage talks about the righteousness of people and ministers, but he only commits suicide without seeking profit. The husband is for Lu, and he is not the king......

Lin Yanchao looked at Ye Xianggao's scroll and said in his heart, I used to only know that Ye Xianggao's scroll was well written, but what was good, I didn't understand it very well, it was because the gap was too big, and now I can understand that the gap between me and him has narrowed.

It seems that memorizing the model essay is not completely useless, and in the past month and a half, I have indeed made great progress as Mr. said.

"Brother Lin!" Lin Yanchao was stopping in front of the list, and suddenly a person spoke behind him.

Lin Yanchao turned his head, it was Chen Xinggui.

"Brother Chen, what do you have to say?"

Chen Xinggui said with a smile: "I don't dare to teach it, Brother Lin, I read your papers, and the progress is not small." ”

Lin Yanchao said suddenly: "Where, from the second place to the twenty-second place, how can there be a lot of progress." ”

Chen Xinggui smiled slightly and said, "I mean, Brother Lin's paper has improved a lot compared to the last Shuowang class, not the last monthly class." ”

Lin Yanchao was surprised, this person couldn't have seen through my ability.

Chen Xinggui hurriedly said: "Brother Lin, don't get me wrong, I'm not here to find out anything, everyone has their own way to read, Brother Lin has no other way." It's just that in the next month, the Five Classics will be taught, can Brother Lin think about what scriptures to use as the main scripture? ”

The Five Classics are Yi, Poems, Shangshu, Spring and Autumn, Rites, and Imperial Examinations, and scholars only need to be proficient in one classic. In the township examination, the top five candidates are the top five who each choose the best answer.

Lin Yanchao said: "I just came to the academy at the beginning of two months, and I asked Brother Chen for advice." ”

Chen Xinggui said immediately: "Don't dare." It seems that Brother Yanchao has not yet decided, so let's take what scripture as the main scripture. ”

Lin Yanchao nodded and said, "Yes, I don't know what scriptures most of the academy disciples use as their scriptures?" ”

Chen Xinggui said with a smile: "The mountain chief is good at governing the Spring and Autumn Period, and the secondary auxiliary books and poems; He is good at governing the Book of Poetry, and as for the other four classics, he is also familiar with them. Therefore, in the academy, there are more disciples who take the Spring and Autumn Period and the Book of Poetry as the main scripture. ”

"Spring and Autumn, the Book of Songs!" Lin Yanchao nodded, just like the children of Wei and Jin, who talked about reading, lectured on genealogy, and paid attention to the bloodline inheritance of the children of the scholar clan.

The two Han Dynasty governed the scriptures, paying attention to teaching from generation to generation, and paying great attention to the relationship between teachers and teachers. For example, the Book of Poetry is divided into four schools, Lu poetry, Qi poetry, Han poetry, and Mao poetry, and each teacher has different opinions on how to annotate the Book of Poetry to his disciples.

And the Spring and Autumn Period, and the Spring and Autumn Period also have the Zuo family, the Ram, and the Gu Liang three transmissions, which are also their own factions, and the master and apprentice inherit each other, each with its own system.

Therefore, during the Han Dynasty and the Han Dynasty, it was necessary to learn the Book of Poetry, and the Spring and Autumn Period had to choose a first-class school.

In the Ming Dynasty, the imperial examination prescribed the framework of how to annotate the Five Classics. However, it is generally the same as what the master governs, and what the disciples also learn.

It stands to reason that Lin Yanchao should learn the Spring and Autumn Period or the Book of Poetry, but he has another idea.

PS: The legendary double watch is here, ask for everyone's recommendation votes! There will be a change in the evening, I'm afraid it will be a little later, but it will definitely be more.
