Zeng Huan was flattered and hurriedly approached Eunuch Zheng and said respectfully: "Dadfather-in-law, in my opinion, Chen Kaizhi must have been infected with the cold and was unhappy, so... he was unwilling to do the questions and hurriedly wrote something to do it. People who have always participated in the provincial examination in Dingwu exam room have all passed, and many people are even more seriously ill after the exam. In the eyes of students, Chen Kaizhi is probably already exhausted, but he just held on during the exam."

This beautiful face showed a smug smile, as if he had seen Chen Kaizhi's death.

Eunuch Zheng thought for a moment, then nodded, and smiled sinisterly: "We think so too, this is how... very good, be prepared. Now all the news that should be released has been released. What should you do next, so don't need to teach us."

Zeng raised his eyebrows, curled his thin lips, and said with a flattering smile: "Student understands."

……………………

A large number of test papers have been collected, and the results will be released seven days after the provincial examination.

Because of this, the Minglun Hall is still brightly lit, and all examiners dare not slackew on the slightest.

The question of this third exam is "Safe in poverty and enjoy the way". The top priority of the provincial exam is also the article in the third exam. The examiners like the most and also read such papers.

Because such articles are very readable, they are obviously much more interesting than the previous two policy theories and classical and historical topics.

Excellent test papers were sent to Zhang Jian and Wang Tixue's desks, and they were all looking forward to it.

Sometimes, Zhang Jian would read an article excitedly, and many people would applaud him.

After reading the paper for two days, the examiners' mood gradually became boring.

Yes, after reading so many articles "Safeguarding Poverty and Enjoying the Way", anyone who reads it will inevitably get bored.

The articles that I thought were readable at first gradually became boring later.

When marking the papers, examiners must stay in Minglun Hall, and they must not leave a step after eating, even sleeping.

Therefore, many people are tired on their faces, and some people become irritated.

The same is true for Zhang Jian. He flipped through the test papers in a while, thinking that in a few days, he would be done, and then he barely became more energetic.

Just when Minglun Hall was dead, someone suddenly recited: "The mountain is not high, but if there is immortal, it will be famous; if there is water is not deep, but if there is dragon, it will be spiritual!"

Just this sentence seemed to give the examinees in the classroom a shot of a cardiotropic agent.

Everyone raised their eyes at the same time and began to chew the sentence carefully.

The first sentence alone gives people a sense of novelty, not to mention that this statement is quite philosophical. Is the famous mountains and rivers that have always been famous all over the world because of the beautiful mountains and rivers and the surging waters? No, this is because people place beautiful things in it, which has spirituality and memorial service.

Compared to other boring articles, everyone held their breath and wanted to listen carefully to what the next sentence was.

The examiner seemed very excited, and his voice was a little hoarse, "This is a humble room, but my virtue is full."

call……

The first sentence points out the main theme. This is a simple house. Only the people living in the house will not feel the simplicity of the house if they have good moral character.

Isn’t this... not to be content with poverty or enjoy the word? In a humble room, such a state of mind really gives people a sense of transcendence.

Zhang Jian's body trembled, and he was stunned. He was eager to know what the next sentence was, so he hurriedly said: "Read it quickly."

"The moss marks are green on the steps, and the grass is as green as a curtain..."

Bang...

An examiner was so obsessed with the slap in the table that he was so obsessed with, saying, "What a great sentence."

"There are great scholars who talk and laugh, and there are no white dicks when they come and go... you can adjust the zither, read the golden scriptures, and there is no chaos in silk and bamboo, and there is no old form of dereliction of duty..."

Free and easy, this free and easy feeling is really fascinating.

What does it mean to be content with poverty and enjoy the way? This is the real way to be content with poverty and enjoy the way. Not only does no one feel depressed in this humble room, but it gives people a feeling of yearning for it.

Zhang Jian stroked his beard, shook his head, and looked happy, as if he was intoxicated.

He raised his eyes suddenly, as if he had remembered something, why is there no one below?

He quickly raised his eyes, but looked at the examiner who was reciting the article, and urged him anxiously: "What about the next sentence?"

The examiner took a breath and seemed very excited. In front of everyone's eyes, he said word by word: "Confucius said: Why is there such a terrible thing?"

It's God!

Especially this last sentence Confucius said, "What a terrible thing?"

The ending with Zi Yue is exactly in line with Confucianism. These few short words can be said to be the finishing touch.

It's really amazing!

Zhang Jian was trembling with excitement, and the other examiners were chewing the last sentence blankly. This sentence was the most magical and natural.

Confucius' affirmation means that the best conclusion is made for it. The paper should have arguments, and quoting Confucius' words as arguments is undoubtedly the most irrefutable argument.

The most amazing thing about this article is that other articles are constantly saying that they don’t care about fame and fortune, and how fame and fortune harm others. Scholars should have a tendency to be indifferent to fame and fortune.

However, the whole article has only one theme: "The shabby room is not shabby". Not only is the shabby room not shabby, but this poor life has triggered countless imaginations and gave people a sense of fascination.

Does this...not justify the peace of poverty and enjoyment?

In the eyes of those who are content with poverty and enjoy the word of mind, they can live a brilliant life in this humble room, and in the end, Saint Kong's annotations are even more flawless.

Suddenly, everyone suddenly became silent, and it was a sensation that the needle fell from Minglun Hall.

And everyone was immersed in this shock and couldn't come back to their senses for a long time.

Finally, after a long time, Zhang Jian couldn't help but say, "Who is the candidate?"

"This..." the examiner couldn't help but smile bitterly: "This is a famous paper. Only after the exam is reviewed can the examiners leave Minglun Hall before they can be removed."

Zhang Jian also laughed. How could he not know this rule? It was just... he was too excited just now.

Then, he couldn't help but sigh: "Today's presidency, I didn't expect that there would be such an article, which is enough to comfort my whole life. Come and take the test paper."

After taking the test paper, he picked up his pen and wrote the word "excellent".

This excellent judgment is by no means a joke. There may not be many excellent ones in an exam. If candidates get a judgment like "good", "very good", "good", etc., it will almost be considered as one foot that has stepped into the threshold of a juren.

If the candidates who have three consecutive exams start with one of the best ones, they can almost become juren. If there are two, they will definitely enter the third grade. As for the three excellent exams, it is really too difficult and almost impossible.

With this article in front of me and then reading the articles in the future, the examiners became even less energetic. They could not help but compare these test papers and those articles that were not high. This comparison made them feel even less interested, and even made them feel sleepy and napping.

On the other side, after Chen Kaizhi finished the exam, he hurriedly returned home. Seeing that he was dirty, the first thing he did was to carry water to take a shower, and then change into clean and refreshing clothes. He became much more energetic.

Now that the provincial examination has been completed, there is actually a wait for what he can do.

The days of the announcement are getting closer and closer. Although he has always been calm and composed, he cannot help but expect it. However, the recent news about plagiarism during the examination of his house has spread even more.

Throughout the dynasties, whenever there is fraud in the imperial examination, people are always willing to pay too much attention to it. If such a talent ceremony involves fraud, how terrible it is.

Although Chen Kaizhi did not leave his home, he could feel the atmosphere.

He always looked slow and slow, but he seemed to have already realized that a storm was brewing.

In this way, the day for the release of the results has finally arrived.

At this time, Chen Kaizhi didn't have much to worry about what storm he was going to face. He woke up early in the morning and looked out the window. He saw that the morning mist had not yet dissipated, and the sky was still hazy, but he was thinking in his heart... I am afraid that the uncle Wucai will come again on such a day?

Sure enough, this head was thinking, and there was movement outside.

"Kaizhi, Kaizhi..."

Chen Kaizhi was dressed in a fresh dress and slowly went out. Sure enough, he saw Uncle Wucai standing outside the fence, with the guards of the royal palace and two sedan chairs as usual.

Chen Kaizhi shook his head in his heart, and couldn't help but sigh that this uncle, my talent, was only so enthusiastic when he joined in the fun.

Chen Kaizhi and Wucai’s uncle greeted him: “Is uncle okay recently? How is your highness now?”

My master is still the fairy-like spirit of that school, like a master in the water stream on the top of a mountain. He just nodded implicitly and said in a low voice: "I am an idle cloud and wild crane. What is good or bad, actually has nothing to do with, but my master always misses you. I heard that you did not do well this time?"

Chen Kaizhi said in surprise: "Where do you start?"

Uncle Wucai glanced at him, as if he felt that Chen Kai was strong and was still stubborn.

He stroked his beard and said confidently: Don’t hide it from the uncle. Although I turn a blind eye to the matter outside the window, I still know a little about you."

His eyes slanted slightly, and his eyes were filled with regret when he looked at Chen Kaizhi.

"It's been rumored that your mansion exam is suspected of fraud. This time, I'm afraid that the performance of the provincial exam is extremely abnormal. Eight out of ten are going to fail the exam, but it doesn't matter. If you fail, just fail the exam. Will the uncle still be hungry?"

Chen Kaizhi's eyes seemed to be flashing with something, but they seemed very calm.

But Master Wucai suddenly saw something from Chen Kaizhi's face. He frowned and asked quickly: "Kaizhi, what are you thinking?"

Chen Kaizhi shook his head quickly and said, "The students didn't think of anything."

Why... weird?
