Outside the crowded square, there is a cool place shaded by banyan trees. Different from the bustling outer temple square, there are no people here and the breeze is lazy, making it seem a bit lonely.

Zhang Weizheng carefully supported Hong Meng and sat by the flower bed under the banyan tree, holding Hong Meng's shoulders.

After a short rest, Hong Meng's condition improved a lot.

When Zhang Wei saw the clerk of the Document Hall walking up to the wall, he understood that the answer sheet for the second question had come out.

Although I have to take care of Hong Meng, I can't suppress the eagerness in my heart, which is as uncomfortable as a monkey scratching a cat: "I don't know if someone made a golden sentence for the second question, or did Qin Mo make a golden sentence?"

Hong Meng was also at war with himself. On the one hand, he felt that Qin Mo had already made a quatrain and there was a high probability that he would go to Diwu.

But on the other hand, he felt that there were three questions in the imperial examination. What if Qin Mo did not perform well on the last two questions?

Theoretically, this is very possible.

Who can write consecutive golden sentences and quatrains in the imperial examination?

Although Hong Meng is not a writer, he also knows that this situation is very rare.

Hong Meng refused to give up and said: "Go and see who made the golden sentence."

He no longer had the strength to squeeze in, and what's more, if Qin Mo came up with another golden sentence, he would feel dizzy when he heard the scribe from the Palace of Documents reading Qin Mo's golden sentence.

"Okay." Zhang Wei thought Hong Meng was anxious to know Qin Mo's results, so he hurried over.

Although they are not familiar with each other, at best they are just in the same examination room for physical examination and cultural examination.

However, since we are here to watch the imperial examination, and we know each other well, then we should pay more attention to him.

The only thing that puzzled Zhang Wei was that Hong Meng's reaction to Qin Mo's results was too extreme.

Are you so excited to see Qin Mo get good grades?

Hong Meng looked at Zhang Weiyuan's back with a gloomy expression.

After a while, Zhang Wei jogged back with a smile on his face.

Hong Meng's heart skipped a beat, and he had a vague premonition.

"Lao Hong, Qin Mo has made another quatrain."

Hong Meng's upright body trembled, and his heart instantly sank to the bottom of the valley.

…

…

Inside the Zhuangyuan Hall.

The last question of the imperial examination.

This question was not asked by Zhan Qinghai, the Lord of Jincheng City, nor Song Mingcheng, the Lord of the Document Hall, but a question from the National Palace Examination.

One poem, one word, one article, the last question, article!

When Qin Mo noticed that Zhan Qinghai came out with a scroll again, he was heartbroken. Was he writing an article with paintings again?

On the stage, before everyone could speculate for too long, Zhan Qinghai said calmly: "The last question in the palace examination is not set by me, nor by the chief clerk, but a unified question in the national palace examination."

"This question is based on words."

With words as the title?

The candidates present felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief. Two consecutive drawing-based questions made them feel more stressed. They were afraid that they were questions with increasing difficulty.

Finally, I changed the way I asked questions.

However, after only a moment of relaxation, the candidates quickly became nervous again.

Zhan Qinghai held the calligraphy scroll, lightly twisted the red rope end with two fingers, picked it up with his thumb, tied the rope, and pushed it flat on the table.

Character history.

The moment the scroll was unfolded, Qin Mo could clearly see the three large characters at the beginning of the scroll.

Whose profile?

As if he understood the questions in everyone's minds, Zhan Qinghai answered without asking: "This is the character of the current national saint."

oh oh

When Qin Mo heard Zhan Qinghai's explanation, he instantly showed an "I understand" expression. He understood that feelings are a current political issue.

Promoting positive energy seems to be important no matter where we are.

The personal history of Guosheng is divided into three parts.

Early life, middle age, and old age.

In terms of stages, the early years were spent from studying literature to entering the official career, the middle age was spent entirely in the official career, and the later years were spent from the time when he was conferred a state sage to the present day.

Obviously, every big shot starts from a small person. Unless he has the kind of luck and the support of noble people, he can rise up rapidly.

This national saint obviously does not belong to this category.

The life of today's national saint is very bumpy. He rose up in hardships and was canonized in the midst of turmoil.

There is a dusty past that cannot be looked back on.

After the candidates at the scene understood it, they began to silently read the characters of Guosheng.

The character biography is not long in terms of words. It is divided into big and small details and relaxed. The three parts add up to about 3,000 words.

The first part mainly writes about the current Guoshengqiu semester, when the family is in a difficult situation and demons are raging.

This part tells the story of the current national saint who has shown amazing talents as a writer since he was a child, and his perseverance that is different from ordinary people. Although he was limited by the difficult environment and had no money to study, the current national saint never really gave up any opportunity to read and study classics.

, also often hide by the school window and eavesdrop on the teacher's lectures and answers to questions.

When I was young, I even went to the Book Hall to clean up, so I could get in touch with and secretly read classics.

It wasn't until the National Saint showed his talent and talent that he embarked on a positive path to study step by step.

From then on, he was like a dragon rising out of the sea and soaring into the sky.

This part is very suitable for writing an article.

This is indeed the case. After reading this part, most of the on-site candidates were already inspired and returned to their seats to start writing articles.

Good articles are rare.

Inspiration is even rarer!

When inspiration strikes, you don't have to read all the other options. As long as you express the inspiration in your heart with talent, it will be an excellent article.

Qin Mo didn't move.

Not only did he not move, Lin Youyin, Shen Mengsheng, and Zhang Mingwen also didn't move.

Literati, especially talented literati, are mostly aloof and arrogant.

Lin Youyin, Shen Mengsheng, and Zhang Mingwen are all like this. In their hearts, they are still unwilling to follow the trend and share the first part of the national saints' biographies with other candidates as the title of the article.

As for Qin Mo, I haven’t thought of a good article yet.

So, several people continued to look at the second part.

The second part of the biography of the National Saint tells a gloomy career history. Due to his failure in a very important battle, the current National Saint was demoted in middle age and was reduced to a small official in a remote and poor backward area, with no food, drink or housing.

becomes a problem.

During this period, the state sages often recited classics and wrote many excellent works.

It was not until later that there was an earthquake and cleansing above, and the rivals in the battle fell, and the National Saint was recalled to the imperial capital until he was canonized as a National Saint.

When Qin Mo saw this paragraph, his eyes suddenly lit up.

This is the choice.

Qin Mo already had an idea in his mind.

He wanted to choose the second part of the biography as the title, the section in which the national saint was demoted to a minor official in a backward area before he was canonized!

For today's national saint, this gloomy official career should be the most important and most memorable part of his life.

When Lin Youyin, Shen Mengsheng, and Zhang Mingwen saw Qin Mo starting to write, they no longer looked at the characters in a hurry, but turned to look at Qin Mo.

On the stage, Zhan Qinghai and the Master of the Document Hall also looked over.

call

Qin Mo used his talent all over his body and began to write. The talent sketched a scene in his mind, as if he had become a national saint who had failed in his official career and was demoted. He looked around, surrounded by dilapidated houses and clutter.

Grass, the sadness arises spontaneously, and the writing begins naturally

A deity makes a mountain, not its altitude.
