The bell rang in the early morning, which was the bell in the Gongyuan courtyard that reminded the candidates to get up and not to oversleep. The dormitories were busy. Gongsheng students got up one after another to wash up, boil water to make tea, and take out dry food to eat. Today is spring.
The third day of the exam is also the last day. After today, the overall situation has been decided. Whether you will leap over the dragon gate and rise to the sky, or fall into the quagmire and return to the dirty life, today is the last chance.
Lin Jue also got up early, pulled out the bamboo stopper in the corner, took a pot of water, lit the oil stove and started to boil the water. He also placed Lu Wu's baked sugar cakes next to the stove and baked them slowly.
After that, I sat in front of the desk and slowly arranged my hair, took water to cleanse my face and washed. After washing, the water was boiling, so I took a tea cup, took a small piece of tea bag, put it in, and poured it into the boiling water. Suddenly, I felt
The aroma of tea fills the nose.
The sugar cakes were also heated up, exuding a sweet aroma. Lin Jue took one and tore it open, and golden syrup came out. Combined with the golden and crispy dough, the taste was really delicious. Lin Jue
There was actually a lot of food that Jue brought in. 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 for three days, after eating here and there, Lin Jue was still
I think Lu Wu Lao's sugar cakes are delicious. They are crunchy, sweet and glutinous, and the sweetness fills your mouth. After eating them warmly in your stomach, and then drinking a few sips of tea, the taste is indescribable.
Lin Jue thought about why this was the case, but he had no answer. Maybe this was the taste he had always been accustomed to. Lu Wu's baked sugar cakes are just right in taste, so he likes to eat them. Things in this world are not like this. It is appropriate.
What is comfortable is the best, but it does not have to be perfect or precious.
After breakfast, all the candidates were already sitting in front of their desks. As usual, today's test questions would be handed out at 1 o'clock in the morning. Under the supervision of officials, the servants would use long poles to lift the test questions from the door opening.
When they come in, the candidates inside take down the test questions, and then the chief examiner will order all the deputy examiners to read the questions in unison, and then they can answer the questions after checking that they are correct.
As soon as Chen time arrived, the test questions were sent in on time. Today is the third day, and the test question is a policy essay. For Lin Jue, policy essay is his most troublesome level, and there is no ready-made article to carry. So before the exam, he
Only then would he spend a lot of time speculating on the direction of the wind. Before this exam, he thought that the exam would definitely yield strategies on reform matters, so he spent a lot of time reviewing his past and recalling Shang Yang's reforms in the history books to the Song, Ming and Qing dynasties in his memory.
Several famous reforms were made in order to overcome this crisis.
However, after today's test questions were distributed, Lin Jue discovered that the policy topic seemed to have nothing to do with reform, but an orthodox political topic. The title said: In the past Han Dynasty, Jia Yi wrote three chapters of "Guo Qin Lun", which was written in thousands of words.
The faults of the Qin Dynasty have been listed. The evidence is sufficient and convincing. But if Qin had such faults, why did it destroy the six countries and dominate the world? If Qin had faults, why didn't the six countries not? Let's try to discuss it.
This question can be said to be a common policy question in the imperial examinations of the Great Zhou Dynasty. It is usually derived from historical events. It may be quoted from the words of celebrities or the comments of historians, allowing candidates to learn from other events.
To discuss this moment from one angle, we can achieve the purpose of saying something meaningful and using the past to draw lessons from the present.
When Lin Jue saw this topic, his mind went blank. This was a big topic. From the perspective of the Six Kingdoms, it was not difficult to discuss the lessons of their destruction by the Qin Dynasty. Lin Jue stood up and walked around with his hands behind his hands, thinking.
For a long time, suddenly a light flashed in my mind, and I was ecstatic.
"I'm so lucky. Isn't this a ready-made policy paper? And it happens to be about this matter. What's even more coincidental is that I recited this article in high school, and I still remember it fresh. It seems that it has its own meaning.
God's will, God seems to be helping me, allowing me to pass this test."
Lin Jue immediately laid out paper and polished ink. After preparations were completed, Lin Jue stood up and burned a note of sandalwood. He raised his hands to the sky and saluted, and said silently: "I'm sorry, Dad Su, I borrowed your son's poems. You
I can’t let it go. My son was open-minded and careless in his dream last night, so I guess you, the old man, won’t care either. Although I don’t know which dimension you and your son are in, I’d like to thank you in advance.”
Lin Jue turned around and sat down, holding the purple hair in his hand, dipped in ink and thought for a while, then started writing with a brush.
"The six kingdoms were destroyed not only because of the disadvantage of the army, but also because of the bad fighting, but because of bribing Qin. Bribing Qin and losing strength, this is the way to destruction. Or it can be said that the six countries lost each other, and they bribed Qin? It is said: Those who did not bribe were killed by bribing.
, without strong support, it cannot be accomplished alone. Therefore, it is said that the disadvantage lies in bribing Qin.
In addition to conquering Qin, the small ones captured towns and the large ones captured cities. Compared with Qin's gains, those gained from victory were actually a hundred times as much as those from victory; the deaths of princes were actually a hundred times as much as those from defeat. This is Qin's great desire
, the great troubles of the princes are definitely not caused by war. The ancestors of Sijue exposed the frost and dew, and chopped off the thorns to have a large land. The descendants did not cherish it, and gave it to others, just like discarding grass and mustard. Today, five cities have been cut,
Tomorrow we will cut ten cities, and then we will have a good night's rest. We will look around the surrounding areas, and the Qin army has arrived. However, the land of the princes is limited, and the desire to violent Qin is insatiable.
The victory of the strong and the weak has been decided. As for subversion, it is reasonable. The ancients said: "To serve Qin with the land, it is like holding firewood to put out a fire. If the firewood is not exhausted, the fire will not be extinguished." This is true.
The people of Qi did not try to bribe Qin, but after the five kingdoms were finally removed and destroyed, why? They wanted to win but did not help the five kingdoms. The five kingdoms were lost, and Qi was also inevitable. The kings of Yan and Zhao had far-sighted strategies and were able to defend their land.
Bribing Qin. Therefore, even though Yan was a small country, it later fell, and the effect of its use of troops was also effective. Zhi Dan used Jing Qing as a plan to quickly cause disaster. Zhao Chang fought against Qin in five battles, losing two and winning three. Later Qin attacked Zhao again,
Li Mulian refused. Jie Mu punished him with slander and made Handan a county. It was a pity that he used force but did not end. Moreover, when the Qin Revolution at Yan and Zhao was completely destroyed, it could be said that their intelligence was lonely and they were defeated and perished. They had no choice but to Xiangshi Three Kingdoms.
Everyone loves their own land, Qi people should not be attached to Qin, assassins cannot do it, but good generals are still there, then the number of winners and losers, and the principles of survival, should be compared with Qin, or it may not be easy to measure.
Woohoo! By bribing the land of Qin, making the world's advisers, serving Qin's heart, paying homage to the world's talents, and striving to the west, I fear that the people of Qin will not be able to eat it. Sad man! With such power, and for
The people of Qin were robbed by those who accumulated prestige, and the sun and moon cut them off, so that they were destined to perish. Those who serve the country will be robbed by those who accumulate prestige!
The Six Kingdoms and Qin were both vassals, and their power was weaker than that of Qin, but they still had the power to win without bribery. The story of Gou thinking that the world was so big, and then falling from the Six Kingdoms, was under the Six Kingdoms again.
"
…
In the afternoon, Lin Jue was lying down and sleeping soundly with the sound of rustling wind blowing leaves. For Lin Jue, this spring exam was much easier than others. After writing the "Six Kingdoms" in the morning, Lin Jue
He had already completed all the answer sheets. While most of the people were thinking hard about writing articles and answering questions with sad faces, Lin Jue sat boredly in the dormitory and thought about things. In the end, he felt bored and simply went to bed and fell asleep.
Lin Jue didn't know that when he was sleeping soundly, Wu Chunlai, one of the examiners this spring, had come to his room. But when he saw Lin Jue sleeping soundly on the bed, Wu Chunlai rolled his sleeves angrily.
And go. In the past few days, Wu Chunlai has actually been paying attention to Lin Jue's movements. Every time when others are writing hard, this guy is either in a daze or sitting around drinking tea. Occasionally, answering questions ends in a very short time.
From Wu Chun's point of view, it was not answering the question, but just perfunctory. It is impossible to really answer the question so easily and in such a short time.
Wu Chunlai believed that the situation he was most worried about had appeared. Lin Jue should have voluntarily given up on the Spring Examination. He did not want to pass the imperial examination at all, so he adopted this passive method to fight against himself. He did not want to be his informant, and did not want to
Work for himself. If he really just answered the question blank, or answered perfunctorily, then Wu Chunlai could not openly let him win. Otherwise, when he saw such an outrageous answer during the review, things would be very difficult. In the end, it would definitely happen
After tracing it down, it was a head-scratching matter.
Obviously, Lin Jue's previous submissiveness was actually an excuse, and he just refused to cooperate happily. But the more this happened, the less he could get what he wanted. Didn't he want to give up the Spring Examination? He just wanted to let him
Even if he wrote randomly or handed in a blank paper, he could still find a way to get him into high school. Thinking of Lin Jue's appearance when he found out that he was on the high school gold medal list, Wu Chunlai was looking forward to it, and he vowed to cure this kid.
docile and obedient.
A burst of noise woke up Lin Jue, who was meeting Duke Zhou in his dream. He got up and looked out the door window. The sun was shining brightly and the green trees were swaying. It seemed like it was only afternoon. There were still several hours before the end of the exam.
Lin Jue sighed and listened to the noise outside.
There was the sound of orders and footsteps outside, and it seemed that something had happened. Listening to the sound, it seemed that many soldiers and horses were running outside the dormitory. The clanking of weapons and armor collided. This sound was very familiar to Lin Jue, after all, he was in Luoyan.
Gu Dazhai heard too much.
Lin Jue hurriedly got out of bed and went downstairs, looking outside through the door rail. He thought there was another cheating incident or someone died in the dormitory, which alerted the soldiers in charge of guarding.
.But soon, he felt something was wrong.
But I saw groups of soldiers in full armor and bright armor rushing towards them, standing in a row in front of the cell. The armor and equipment of these people were different from those of ordinary soldiers. It could be seen that they were the highest-grade armor and weapons.
Very gorgeous. These soldiers are also tall and energetic, as if they were specially selected soldiers.
Lin Jue was wondering, and the next moment the answer to the mystery was revealed. He heard the sound of horse hooves, and a dozen fully armed cavalry trotted past on tall horses. One of the men in the middle was holding a command flag and shouting loudly.
"Listen, Gongsheng students. The Holy One has come to the Gongyuan examination room in person to encourage and visit you. You should go out immediately and kowtow and wait for the Holy Master. You must not make any noise, raise your head, or be disrespectful. Anyone who violates this will be punished without mercy."
