Chapter 61: Shushan has road and diligence as the path
Ye Chunqiu had no choice but to get up and barely hold the book and read it absent-mindedly, but Ye Jing felt that Ye Chunqiu was not good at reading like this, so he urged him to recite it. Ye Chunqiu had to recite it loudly: "The Master said: Learn and practice it from time to time..."
Ye Jing said again: "Why are you still reading the Analects of Confucius? You have become a scholar and are the chief of the case. Do you still have to memorize the Four Books?"
Well……
Ye Chunqiu looked at Ye Jing's stern gaze and felt ashamed. He was right. A top student in the middle school entrance examination and memorized a multiplication table of yarn. He had to bite the bullet: "Son goes to practice calligraphy."
Ye Jing shook his head: "No, you can't always practice calligraphy. The key is to make art. Come on, let's ask each other for advice. Sit down and ask you for your father, how can you explain it if you are old?"
Ye Chunqiu felt that he was quite funny. If he had known this, it would be better to let his father marry a stepmother and come back to be more peaceful. He was so anxious that he would check his brain. After a short while, he said: "This sentence comes from "Mencius and King Hui of Liang". The original sentence is to treat the elderly and the elderly of others, and to the young of others..."
Ye Jing frowned: "Why are you so slow? Since you are the head of the case, you should blurt out."
Then he continued to take the exam and asked seven or eight questions in a row. Ye Chunqiu felt that he was already overwhelmed and his mind seemed to be taking time, and he was busy searching.
After a full morning, Ye Chunqiu had no idea how many answers he had answered and was out of breath, but Ye Jing was still dissatisfied. He waited until Ye San delivered breakfast, and then he gave up: "Continue to take the exam tomorrow. Have dinner first, and you and my father and son will compete later."
Ye Chunqiu said oh, the breakfast was very rich, and it was even a little too much, but it was no longer salt, vegetables and radish. Ye Chunqiu knew in his heart that the first case was very valuable, and that second uncle and second aunt dared not do anything.
Or in other words, they are no longer on the same level as them, and they want to compete now, but they don’t even have the qualifications.
This is the benefit of fame and fortune. Ye San said on the side: "Master, Master Chunqiu, early in the morning this morning, many people came to congratulate him. They all said that Master Chunqiu is a supernatural power, and he has a great future. He also said that none of Fenghua County has produced a small three-yuan family. Master Chunqiu is amazing."
"Then I'll go and have a look." Ye Chunqiu wanted to escape because of Ye Jing's torture.
Ye Jing had a stern face: "Don't go, study your homework well. In the morning, my father will study the art production with you. I am a scholar, and my tail will rise to the sky. Only by enduring hardships can you become the best. You are still early now. The one who reports good news and flatters will naturally have your eldest father to entertain you. What you have to do now is to study hard."
Ye Chunqiu has no choice but to be afraid of hooligans, but to be afraid of hooligans being educated. Based on this reason, you are not afraid of your father being cruel, but you are afraid of him being even more cruel to him. It is conceivable that a person who treats himself so cruel to his fame and fortune is his son.
OK, read.
The father and son "asking advice" between each other is not completely unrealistic. In addition to giving Ye Chunqiu a deeper understanding of the Eight Essays and the Four Books and Five Classics, Ye Chunqiu's search for light and brain faster. Any tricky problem can be keenly detected by the keywords without time-consuming searching. Then, as soon as the center of the sea of consciousness is thought, the things he wants to search are immediately reflected in his mind. The next moment, Ye Chunqiu opened his mouth and blurted out.
Ye Jing seemed to realize his son's genius. Whether it was his pen poem or eight-part essay, there was nothing that stumped Ye Chunqiu. He gained a lot from it. Sometimes he was more serious than Ye Chunqiu. Ye Chunqiu's answer was incisive, which made him reflect on it and benefited a lot from it.
After being tossed by my father for two days, someone from the county had already reported that Ye Chunqiu had to rush to Ningbo as soon as possible to participate in the Pan ceremony.
The so-called admission to Pan actually means admission. This school is not an ordinary school, but a prefecture and county school. From then on, your name will be included in the Confucianism roster and officially become a scholar. The government will give many privileges, such as exempting certain taxes and exempting corvee. If you are a student with the best grades, you can also receive seven dou of rice from Confucianism every month as a subsidy.
The above are just obvious privileges, and many invisible privileges are also available, such as not paying respects to officials, or committing crimes, local officials are not allowed to deal with them, and they need to let the academic officials deal with them first. For example, if you are qualified to cause trouble, you can occasionally scold local officials. Even if you are away from home and leave your hometown, you no longer need to lead the way. If you think the road is unsafe, you can even wear a sword. In short, you are a scholar, have become a reserve cadre of the Ming Dynasty, and are the pride of heaven.
After entering the Panli, even though Ye Chunqiu had entered the official school seriously, the Ye family attached great importance to this. The old man personally ordered the carriage to prepare. He wanted to let another servant go with him in addition to Ye San, but Ye Jing refused. His father was proud, and Ye Chunqiu could not stand his stubborn temper sometimes.
Well, at dawn on the third day, Ye Chunqiu set out and arrived at the county town at noon. This time he finally became a scholar. Ye Chunqiu should go to meet the magistrate of the Enfu Wang County who was the county examination.
County Magistrate Wang seemed quite busy these days. Ye Chunqiu saw that he had lost weight twice. After Ye Chunqiu gave his salute, County Magistrate Wang smiled: "Chunqiu is very successful. We Fenghua has also achieved supernatural powers, and our county is very comforted."
Then he exchanged a few more greetings. The magistrate Wang seemed to have something to do, and seemed a little distracted. Before he could drink a cup of tea, a clerk from the county came hurriedly and whispered to the magistrate Wang about something. Ye Chunqiu sat far away and could only vaguely hear words such as "playing chess", "prefect", and "government and envoy".
Ye Chunqiu was tactful and stood up and said, "Students should hurry to the city and say goodbye."
"Since that's the case, I won't stay much in this county, but you're young, can anyone take care of you on the road?" He paused and said to the clerk: "When I take this official, I will use it to borrow it for the Spring and Autumn Period."
Ye Chunqiu had some opinions about County Magistrate Wang, but he was also the "top scorer in the college entrance examination". And the last time County Magistrate Wang came to the door in person, everyone was quite happy, but today they neglected a little and poured a pot of cold water on Ye Chunqiu.
However, when the magistrate Wang wanted to use Shishi Kanhe for Ye Chunqiu, all the unhappiness Ye Chunqiu was eliminated. Shishi Kanhe was the certificate of the government's use of post stations. With this certificate, you can rest at the post stations in various prefectures in the Ming Dynasty. There is some distance from Fenghua to Ningbo, and there are two post stations on the way, which can be used for Ye Chunqiu to rest.
It seems that County Magistrate Wang is pretty good to him, but it seems that something is really wrong.
