Chapter 16 Favorites
"Don't laugh at me, little boy." Zhu Qing said.
Wang Ju looked at the two of them and thought to himself that this boss really had this advanced idea. He said to Zhu Jun tentatively: "My family is very hard."
"I'm not afraid of hardship."
Wang Ju was amused and crying, not afraid of hardship, okay, then let you suffer.
"That way, follow me."
Wang Ju took Zhu Jun to the edge of the river beach.
"Although our dynasty is weaker than martial arts, four generations of monarchs are considered to be the ruler. Looking through historical books, this situation is extremely rare for our dynasty. Most of the three generations of monarchs can still defend the world before the founding of the country, and it will not work in the future. As for the monarchs of Zhongxing, it is even rarer. Only Emperor Xuan of Han can complete the beginning and end. This is the case with the monarchs, and the same is true for the powerful and wealthy families. Why?"
"I know this. In the 12th year of Zhenguan, Emperor Taizong of Tang asked his ministers about whether it was difficult to start a business or maintain success. Fang Xuanling said that at the beginning of the ignorance, he fought with the heroes and then became difficult to start a business. Wei Zheng said that since ancient times, all emperors have been able to get difficulties, lose comfort, and maintain success. Losing comfort."
As a nerd, his knowledge will not be bad, Zhu Jun immediately answered with an allusion.
"Why do you lose comfort?"
Zhu Jun was speechless.
"The entrepreneurs have laid a foundation from nothing, so they know how to cherish it, and the heirs easily get the foundation. They don't know how to cherish it. This is what Wei Zheng said. My father died in the battlefield early, and lived a difficult life. He did not do anything to survive. Therefore, Dongweng took this eye on this and wanted you to follow me to learn some flexibility and inherit the family business in the future. But Erlang, I am several years younger than you, so how can I know the principles of being a human and studying? Look at this crop, they are what I planted when I am about to harvest."
This crop has beans, sorghum, and some yams, about ten acres of land.
In the spring, Wang Ju, with the help of his second uncle and other villagers, ploughed out the seeds and occasionally came to carry water to irrigate, or fertilize and weed. However, because of his lack of strength, he was like slashing and fire, and he was basically expected to give some harvest.
So it's not very good.
However, if all of them are harvested, you can get about 1,000 kilograms of grain, which can maintain the food for three people in the family.
"It is easy to get it, and it cannot be changed."
Zhu Qing couldn't help laughing beside him.
This is also a fact. Will the boss donate his property in the future and then let the two young masters start their own business from scratch?
Zhu Jun couldn't help but squint. Although he had become a nerd, he didn't bother to let a young man come and teach him. He was just afraid of his father's majesty and had to come to this miserable place.
"It's not impossible. Why did Emperor Xuan of Han become the only true king of revival since ancient times?"
Song Renzong did a good job in civil governance, but the Northwest was too cowardly, not as good as Zhao Ji in the early years. In his later years, Zhao Zhen was gradually unwilling to do political understands due to his physical reasons and no offspring. Under the rule of the good man Fu Bi and Han Qi, who was very powerful, it gradually left great hidden dangers to the Song Dynasty. Therefore, in Wang Ju's heart, Zhao Zhen could not be regarded as the king of Zhongxing.
"Emperor Xuan of Han grew up among the people since he was a child, and knew the sufferings of the people. He was also taught by the famous prime minister Huo Guang, so he became the lord of Zhongxing." Zhu Jun answered disdainfully.
"Yes, this experience of growing up among the people is very important. Dongweng asked you to come to my home, but it has nothing to do with your studies. In terms of academic studies, I am afraid that most of the time I have to ask you for advice, and it has nothing to do with being a human being. I am a child, and I know what a human being is? Therefore, Dongweng's intention is to let you work hard. After working hard, you will know how difficult other people's lives are. I plan to harvest these crops tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. You will also participate in the harvest at that time. If you cannot do it, it will be useless for you to stay in my home."
Wang Ju also realized that the second young master was probably a nerd, so the "join" became cruel. But what could this nerd teach him?
If he could teach him well, I believe Zhu Huan would have been able to teach him well long ago.
Since you can't teach anything, let him suffer.
This is the real principle of being a human being and studying, Zhu Qing thought with emotion.
"Okay." Zhu Jun replied.
OK, then you won’t be able to do it, Wang Ju thought. But that’s fine, at least you have a half laborer at home, and you’re worried about how to harvest it…
"The official asked me to ask you, do you want to participate in the imperial examination in the future?"
After Wang Ju came back, Zhu Qing asked Wang Ju to Yanzhou, but Wang Ju refused. Zhu Qing asked about Zhao Niannu again, and Wang Ju also made excuses. Then Zhu Qing saw that Wang Ju often studied hard with books, so he asked this question.
"Think of it." Wang Judao.
"The official asked me to bring you a word. If you are sure, he is willing to ask you to go to the state to study."
"Where is the state school?" Wang Ju's eyes lit up. If you want to take the imperial examination, you must study in the provincial school for hundreds of days. When entering the provincial school or county school, you must guarantee three students, and there are a series of other rules. This is what Fan Zhongyan reformed the imperial examination pit.
Of course, entering the prefectures and county schools was quite helpful to Wang Ju.
Don’t think of the imperial examination so simply.
For example, the meaning of the Book of Calligraphy is actually fill-in-the-blank questions and explanation questions, but you must memorize the Analects of Confucius, the Spring and Autumn Annals, and the Book of Rites so that you will not make mistakes.
That's why this story comes from. Su Dongpo wrote "The Greatest Treatise on Punishment and Rewarding Loyalty and Honesty" when taking the exam, using an example of Yao and Gao Yao's mutual restraint on criminal law. Ouyang Xiu didn't know where it came from. When Su Dongpo met, he deliberately asked about the source. Su Dongpo replied, "It's a matter of course."
Everyone may laugh it off after hearing this.
However, I didn't think about it carefully. When Ouyang revised the paper, he definitely did not have a large number of reference books to find out the source. However, when he saw that there was no source, he had questions, which showed that Ouyang Xiu was familiar with various books. It was no less than a simplified version of the Kuma.
It is precisely this terrifying rote memorization that Xin Qiji has captured countless private goods in the short term "Yongyu Le".
However, the meaning of the Book of Books is only the first step to step outside Donghua Gate, and the rest must be discussed in poetry and essays. Not only should the article be well written, but the idea must also be in line with the examiner's taste, so that you can go to high school.
Therefore, talent is part, and luck is part. For example, in the second year of Jiayou's imperial examination, Deng Wan, Lu Huiqing, Lin Xi, Zeng Bu, Wang Shao, Zhang Dun, who are both civil and military, literary scholars Zeng Gong, Confucian masters Zhang Zai, Lu Dajun, Cheng Hao, and the Su brothers who have illuminated the ages... And so on, it's not that Zhang Heng's turn. I missed that he had read so many books, but he didn't know what Zhang Heng had done in history.
For example, Sun Fu, the leader of the Third Mr. Taishan, was called the Six Classics, but failed to pass the imperial examinations in four times, so he lived in seclusion in Mount Tai to teach his children. For example, another more famous master, Hu Yuan, heard that he was good at writing at the age of seven and understood the Five Classics at the age of fifteen. He was much better than Zhong Yongke, who took notes on Wang Anshi, but failed to pass the exam seven times.
This is luck...
But before lamenting luck, you must have the ability to fill your stomach with ink.
The reason why Wang Ju was interested in the imperial examination was that he was a top student in his previous life. What is a top student? It is a kind of fierce man who may not be useful in entering society, but will be like a fish in water in the exam room.
But his knowledge is obviously different from science.
To give a metaphor, one is a famous actor who sings Peking Opera, which is more difficult, but if you ask him to sing pop songs immediately, you may not be able to sing well.
There must also be a learning process.
This learning process not only requires self-study, but also communication.
However, what can Yanzhou Prefecture learn? No Jinshi has been awarded for a hundred years!
Besides, he has younger brothers and sisters, so he is very cost-effective in the village. He spends money on everything he enters the city. What do he use to support his family of three?
"Thank you for your kindness, I will study for a few more years..."
This is not a word of scammer.
If you test your understanding ability, you will learn quickly by yourself. But that's not the case. You not only need to understand, but also memorize it by rote.
If you use "the beginning of wind" as a fu, and you have never read "Mao Shi", you know how to write it?
After reading Mao's poems and remembering it, he knew that "the beginning of wind is that the world is that the wind is that the couple is correct, so it is used by the people in the country and the country. The beginning of wind is that this wind is called the style of the fifteen countries, and the wind is the politics and religion of the princes... Zhengyi said: The preface of the concubines who are happy to get a lady, do not mislead their colors, and the family members are meticulously involved in the "Poem" and used as songs and music. Therefore, the meaning is expressed in the virtues of the concubines, which means that the concubines have virtues, and the beginning of the customs of King Wen's weather. It means that the King Wen's actions begin with his wife, so this is used as the beginning of the Fengshen, so that the people of the world are transformed into the people of the world and make them all correct couples."
Then based on this annotation, you can make the idea and write the fu.
"That's fine. If... you can succeed, I will persuade the other party to use some more merits to enter the state school and then guarantee you to pass the imperial examination."
Don’t think that if Yanzhou’s education is backward, it is easy to pass the imperial examination.
This thing is like the indicators of later generations. The quota is given according to the situation. After all, the country has to spend a lot of money every year to take on the travel expenses and basic expenses of the juren coming to Beijing. In some areas with developed education, the juren will be given a little more. If the education is backward, the voting number will be given very few.
In areas like Yanzhou, which focus on preparing for war and education is not very important, only a few places will be given for each trial.
In order to prevent the sudden invasion of the Western Xia, the prefectures were not responsible for the sealed examinations. They were generally general judges, and even judges were officers such as military officials, who presided over the examinations, so there were more cases of favoritism and fraud.
Unless the talent is extraordinary and the examiner has to agree, it is difficult for poor children to pass the exam.
He is even more talented, and the examiner may not have the appreciation of the eyes.
If the Zhu family helped, Wang Ju would be sure to pass the first level of the imperial examination. But in that case, the Zhu family might spend a lot of money to open up all joints.
It is said that in the second year of Xianping, a scholar named Ren Yi spent 300 taels of silver to sell a Jinshi from Wang Qinruo. As a result, the case was exposed in the fifth year of Xianping. Although the talented man Hong Zhan became Wang Qinruo's scapegoat, the system of sealing the court after this case became stricter, and in the sixty-one years, Jinshi was more expensive. If it were in the current market, if he could buy a Jinshi with money, even if it was exposed, he would probably not be able to buy a Jinshi place for 10,000 guan. Even if he was a Juren, he would not have to take it down without a thousand guan.
But in Yanzhou, it is really difficult to take the right path, even if it is a prize.
In short, the Zhu family wants to sell a favor this time, and you have to bear it if you don’t.
