The bell rings in the early morning, which is the bell in the Gongyuan to remind the candidates to get up and not to oversleep. The house was busy, and the Gongsheng got up to wash, boil water to make tea, and take out dry food to satisfy their stomachs. Today is the third and last day of the Spring Exam. As soon as the day passes, the overall situation has been decided. Whether the fish leaps into the dragon gate from now on, or falls into the quagmire and returns to the dirty life, today is the last chance.

Lin Jue also got up early, pulled out the bamboo tube and wooden stopper in the corner, took a pot of water, lit the oil stove and began to boil the water. And put the sugar cake baked by the green dance next to the stove and bake it slowly, and then sit in front of the table and slowly tidy up the bun, take water and wash the face. When the washing was finished and the water was boiling, I took a teacup and took a small tea bag and put it in it, and washed it into the boiling water. Suddenly, a smell of tea filled the nose.

The sugar cake is also baked, giving off a sweet aroma. Lin Jue took one and tore it open, and golden syrup came out of it, and with the golden crunchy dough, the taste was really delicious. Lin Jue actually brought in a lot of food, Xie Yingying bought a lot of delicious pastries, and even went to Fanlou to buy two roast geese for Lin Jue to bring in. But in the past three days, after eating and eating, Lin Jue still thinks that the sugar cakes branded by Green Dance are delicious. Crunchy, sweet and glutinous, full of sweetness. Eat it hot and drink a few sips of tea, the taste is indescribable.

Lin Jue thought about why this was the case, but he didn't have an answer, maybe this was what he had been used to. Midori Mai's baked sugar cake is just right for the taste, so I love to eat it. Things in this world are not like this, what is suitable and comfortable is the best, not necessarily flawless and precious.

After breakfast, all the candidates have already sat down in front of the bookcase, according to the custom, starting at the hour, today's exam questions will be sent down. Under the supervision of the officials, the handymen will use a long pole to lift the examination papers through the door opening, and the candidates inside will take down the examination questions, and then the chief examiner will order the deputy examiners to read the questions uniformly, and then they can answer the questions after checking that they are correct.

As soon as the hour comes. Exam questions are delivered on time. Today is the third day, and the exam question is a policy essay. For Lin Jue, strategy is his biggest headache, and there is no ready-made article to carry. That's why he spends a lot of time speculating on the direction of the wind before the exam. Before this examination, he thought that this examination would definitely produce a strategy on the matter of changing the law, so he spent a lot of time reviewing and recalling the changes of Shang Ying in the history books to several famous changes in the Song, Ming and Qing dynasties in his memory. In order to get through this.

However, after today's exam questions were sent, Lin Jue found that the policy topic seemed to have nothing to do with the law change, but an orthodox political topic. Title: Three articles of "On the Passage of Qin" by Jia Yi of the former Han Dynasty sprinkled thousands of words, counting the mistakes of the Qin Dynasty. The arguments are strong and convincing. However, since Qin had such a mistake, why did he destroy the six kingdoms and dominate the world. Qin Zhi has a fault, how can the Six Kingdoms not have it? Let's talk about it.

This topic can be said to be a common topic of orthodox policy in the Great Zhou Imperial Examination, which is generally extended from historical events. Or use the words of celebrities or the comments of historians as a guide, so that candidates can discuss this time from another angle, so as to achieve the purpose of saying something and learning from the past and the present.

When Lin Jue saw this topic, his mind was blank. This is a big topic, and it is not ordinary to discuss the lessons of their destruction by the Qin Dynasty from the perspective of the Six Kingdoms. Lin Jue got up and walked around with his hands in his hands, thinking for a long time, and suddenly a light flashed in his mind, and he was ecstatic.

"Luckily, isn't this a ready-made paper? And it happened to be about this matter, and what is even more coincidental is that I memorized this article in high school, and I still remember it vividly. It seems that there is a providence in the dark, and God seems to be doing him a favor so that he can get through this hurdle. ”

Lin Jue immediately laid paper and polished ink, and after the preparation, Lin Jue got up and burned sandalwood, bowed to the sky, and read silently: "I'm sorry, Daddy Su, I borrowed your son's poems, and I can't let go of yours." Ling Lang was open-minded in his dream last night, and you must not care about it. Although I don't know which dimension your father and son are in, I still thank you first. ”

Lin Jue turned around and sat down, holding Zihao in his hand, dipping it in ink and thinking for a while, the pen walked the dragon and snake, and began to write.

"The destruction of the Six Kingdoms is disadvantageous to non-soldiers, the war is not good, and the disadvantage lies in bribing Qin. Bribing Qin and losing strength is also the way to ruin. Or said: The six countries mourned each other and bribed Qin Ye? Said: Those who do not bribe will be mourned by those who bribe, and those who lose strong reinforcement cannot be finished alone. Therefore, it is said: The disadvantage is to bribe Qin.

In addition to the Qin to conquer, the small ones will get the city, and the big one will get the city. Compared with Qin's gains, and those who have won by victory, they are actually a hundred times; The death of the princes and the death of the defeated are actually a hundred times. The great desires of Qin, and the great troubles of the princes, are not in the war. Thinking of the first grandfather, the frost and dew, cut the thorns, to have a land of size. The children and grandchildren do not pity it, and give it to others, like abandoning grass mustard. Cut five cities today, cut ten cities tomorrow, and then sleep peacefully. Looking at the four realms, and the Qin soldiers are at the top. However, the land of the princes is limited, and the desire of the tyrannical Qin is insatiable, and the worship is complicated, and the invasion is more urgent. Therefore, without a fight, the victory or defeat of the strong or weak has been decided. As for subversion, it makes sense. The ancients said: "To do things with the land, it is still necessary to fight the fire with a salary, and the salary is not exhausted, and the fire is not extinguished." That's right.

The Qi people did not try to bribe Qin, and finally the five countries were destroyed, what is it? and win without helping the five countries also. The five countries are mourning, and Qi is inevitable. The king of Yan Zhao has a long-term strategy, can guard his land, and does not bribe Qin. Although Yan was a small country and then died, the effect of Si using soldiers was also. Zhidan took Jing Qing as a plan, and began to cause disaster quickly. Zhao tasted five battles against Qin, losing two and winning three. After Qin attacked Zhao again, Li Mulian did it. The herd is slandered, Handan is the county, and it is a pity that it uses force but does not end. And when Yan Zhao was in the end of the Qin Revolution, he could be said to be intellectually lonely, defeated and died, and he had no choice but to do so. To make the three kingdoms love their own land, Qi people do not attach to Qin, assassins are not good, good generals are still there, then the number of victories and defeats, the reason for survival, should be compared with Qin, or not easy to measure.

Alack! To bribe the land of Qin, seal the world's advisers, with the heart of Qin, the genius of the world, and the force to the west, I am afraid that the Qin people will not be able to swallow it. Sad husband! There is such a trend, and it is robbed by the prestige of the Qin people, and the day and the moon are cut, so as to tend to die. Those who are for the country have no envoy to be robbed by prestige!

The six kingdoms of Fu and Qin are all princes, and their strength is weaker than that of Qin, and they still have the potential to win without bribery. The story of the destruction of the Six Kingdoms is the story of the destruction of the Six Kingdoms with the greatness of the world. ”

……

In the afternoon, Lin Jue was sleeping soundly in the sound of rustling leaves blowing trees. For Lin Jue, this Spring Exam is much easier than others. After writing the "Theory of the Six Kingdoms" in the morning, Lin Jue had already completed all the answers. When most people were thinking hard about writing articles and answering questions with sad faces, Lin Jue was bored and sat in the number room thinking about it. In the end, I was really bored, so I simply went to bed and fell asleep.

Lin Jue didn't know that when he was asleep, Wu Chunlai, one of the chief examiners of this Spring Festival, had come to his house. But when he saw Lin Jue sleeping on the bed, Wu Chun walked away angrily. In the past few days, Wu Chunlai has actually been paying attention to Lin Jue's movements. Every time someone else is struggling to write, this guy is either in a daze or sitting idle drinking tea. Occasionally, the answer is also a short time and it is over. From Wu Chun's point of view, it was not answering questions, but just perfunctory. It is impossible to answer the question so easily, and the time is so short.

Wu Chunlai believes that the situation he fears most has appeared. Lin Jue should have taken the initiative to give up the Spring Examination, he didn't want to pass the imperial examination at all, so he used this negative method to fight against himself. He doesn't want to be his own eyeliner, he doesn't want to play for himself. If he really just answered the blank paper, or answered the question perfunctorily, then Wu Chunlai would not be able to openly let him win. Otherwise, it will be very tricky to see such outrageous answers when reviewing. Eventually, it will be traced, and that is a head-scratching thing.

Obviously, Lin Jue's previous promises were actually excuses, he just refused to cooperate happily. But the more this is the case, the more it can't get him his way. Didn't he want to give up the Spring Exam? I just want him to be admitted. Even if he scribbled or handed in a blank paper, he had a way to get him to high school. Thinking of Lin Jue's appearance when he found out that he was actually on the gold list in high school, Wu Chunlai was very much looking forward to it, and he vowed to obey this kid.

A noisy sound woke up Lin Jue, who was meeting Zhou Gong in a dream. I got up and looked out the window, the sun was shining and the trees were swaying, and it seemed that it was only afternoon. There are still several hours left before the end of the big exam. Lin Jue sighed and listened to the movement outside with his ears sideways.

Outside, there was the sound of orders and footsteps, as if something was wrong. Listening to the sound, it seems that many soldiers and horses are running outside the number house. The clatter of weapons and armor colliding, this sound is very familiar to Lin Jue, after all, he has heard too much in Luoyan Valley Dazhai.

Lin Jue hurriedly got out of bed and came to the bottom, looking out through the doorrail, he thought that there was something cheating or someone died in the house, which alarmed the soldiers and horses in charge of guarding. But soon, he felt that something was wrong.

But he saw a group of soldiers in bright armor rushing towards him, standing in a row along the front of the house. The armor and equipment of these people are different from the armor and equipment of ordinary soldiers, and it can be seen that the armor and blades are of the highest level, which is very gorgeous. These soldiers were also tall and energetic, as if they had been specially selected.

Lin Juezheng was puzzled, and the next moment the mystery was revealed. Hearing the sound of horses' hooves, more than a dozen heavily armed cavalrymen trotted past on tall horses, and one of them held a command flag and shouted loudly.

"Listen, all the tribute students, the Holy One has come to the examination room of the Tribute Academy to encourage you. Immediately go out and prostrate and wait for the holy chakra. No noise, no raising of heads, no rudeness. If there is a violation, there will be no forgiveness. ”
