The Red Chamber begins with a bastard

Chapter 84
The second round of the county examination is called Zhaofu, also known as the first round of examination. Since more than half of the candidates were eliminated in the first round, the test room in the second round seemed much empty, as if even the air had become fresher.Jia Huan entered the arena as last time, got the test papers, and the exam officially started with the sound of the board.

The content of the second exam is slightly different. You only need to write a four-book essay, then the theory of filial piety, and finally the silent writing of "Shengren Guangxun". It seems that the content is less than that of the first exam, but it is actually more difficult. Many candidates break out in cold sweat when they get the papers.

It turns out that the title of this four-book article is this: Mrs. Jun's wife has a desire for goods.

Obviously, this is a very perverted interception question. The so-called interception question means that the source of this question is not only one, but has multiple sources. It means that the questioner intercepts a sentence from different places in the Four Books and Five Classics, and then mixes them together to form a question. Therefore, the answerer must first accurately find out the source of this question in the Four Books and Five Classics, and then figure out the intention of the questioner, understand the central idea of ​​the other party, and finally solve the question with the correct entry point.

Such questions are not only harmful, but also very damaging, such as the intercepted question in front of you: Mrs. Jun's desire for sex.

Among them, the word "Yanghuoyu" only appears once in the Four Books and Five Classics, which is easy to recognize and not difficult to understand, but the word "Mrs. Jun" appears in many places in the Four Books and Five Classics. God knows which place the questioner chose?If the candidate chooses the wrong one, not to mention writing an article, even understanding the author's intention will be a problem?How can you write this article, write it bravely, if you are lucky and hit it, it will be smoke from the ancestral grave, if you are unlucky, sorry - zero points!
By the way, why are there such perverted interception questions in the scientific examination?

Hey, it’s actually very simple, and it’s a matter of course, because the Four Books and Five Classics are limited, but the imperial examination questions are unlimited. These questions are tested repeatedly, and naturally they all fail in the exam.But that’s all there is to the content of the Four Books and Five Classics, so what should I do?Okay, then cut half a sentence in the east and half a sentence in the west, and then combine them to form a question, which becomes a perverted interception question.

If you put two irrelevant sentences together, it’s fine for a high-level question maker, who can always justify himself, but a poor-level question maker can’t even justify himself.
Therefore, the interception question is a perverted question. The person who made the question is happy, but the examinee is forced to work hard. He can't wait to dig the grave of the person who made the question.

Fortunately, the cut-off question in front of me is quite good. A schoolmaster like Jia Huan, who has experienced many battles in his previous life, is the strongest in being flexible and adaptable.

The term "Yanghuo Desire" has only one source, and that is Chapter No.17 "Yanghuo Pian" of "The Analects of Confucius", the original text: Yanghuo wants to see Confucius, but Confucius does not see him.So there is no need to worry about it, but the word "Madam Jun" because there are many sources of this word.

Using the principle of proximity, Jia Huan quickly pinpointed the source of the word "Mrs. Jun", because the word "Mrs. Jun" happened to appear in Chapter No.16 of "The Analects of Confucius", "Ji Shi Pian", which is the closest source to "Yanghuoyu", so the questioner has the highest probability of choosing this.

In this way, the source of the entire topic is determined, and the intention of the questioner can be guessed, and the central idea can be determined.

Jia Huan pondered for a moment, then began to write on the draft paper...

Time passed by every minute, and soon it was time to hand in the papers in the afternoon. This time, there were very few candidates who handed in the papers in advance. Even after the sound of the handing in, some people were still writing hard. After being forced to hand in the papers, many people covered their faces and cried.

Although Jia Huan finished answering the questions ahead of time, seeing such a situation, he didn't hand in the papers in advance to avoid causing hatred, so the exam was officially over, so he handed in the papers and left.

The dragon gate of the examination room opened, and the examinees all looked serious. The candidates who usually like to discuss the questions after the exam shut up.
"Has Third Master Huan finished his first article?" Seeing that Jia Huan was still calm, Jia Jie couldn't help asking.

Jia Huan said casually: "I just wrote an article, I don't know if I got it right."

Jia Jie felt a little more balanced when he heard this, and said with a wry smile: "I wrote it too. This question is too tricky. I think everyone can't answer it well. When I saw Liu Shouzheng just now, his face was also serious. I'm afraid I didn't do well in the exam. I guess I won't be able to keep the case first."

Jia Tong paused and said, "I've only written half of it, and the answer sheet was taken away. I don't have enough time. This is a terrible situation. I guess I won't be able to pass the second round."

Zhou Zheng smiled wryly and said: "Brother Tong, don't be afraid, at least I'll be with you. I just solved the problem, and I definitely won't pass the second round. Let's fight again next year together." As his eyes turned red, a pair of troubled brothers hugged and cried bitterly.

Jia Huan felt that the two brothers were both ridiculous and a little pitiful, and comforted him: "Everyone did not do well in the exam, not just you, maybe you passed it?"

Zhou Zheng and Jia Tong were overjoyed when they heard the words. That's right, everyone did not do well in the exam. Maybe others are worse than themselves?When everyone is bad, it all depends on their peers to set off, maybe the two of them really have a chance to pass the second round!
Ever since, the pair of suffering brothers and sisters rekindled hope, and said gratefully: "Master Huan's words awakened the dreamer, yes, there is still a chance!"

Jia Huan smiled, and walked out of the dragon gate. At this time, the servant Jin Shu had already greeted him. He diligently took the test basket in Jia Huan's hand, and asked with a silly smile, "Is the third master doing well in the test this time?"

Jia Huan nodded and said: "It should be okay, it is estimated that there will be no problem."

Baoshu said happily when he heard the words: "That's great. Seeing those people crying so much, they all said that the exam questions are difficult, and I'm still a little worried about the third master."

Jia Huan smiled and said: "Don't worry about others, go home." After speaking, he walked forward, feeling inexplicably relaxed, and his intuition told him that he should have done well in this exam, and his ranking may be greatly improved.

Two days later, the second round of the county examination took place. It was also a round case and a secondary list, and only the seat numbers of the candidates were announced. This time, there were much fewer candidates who came to see the list. Jia Huan easily squeezed in, and soon found his seat number at No. 10 in the inner circle.

Jia Huan's heart thumped, and as expected, he entered the inner circle, and he was still No.10. Tsk tsk, this is a full improvement of 38 places from the first round, which is a leap forward!

Jia Huan took a deep breath, and slowly calmed down. Although he had a premonition that the ranking would increase, the increase was beyond Jia Huan's expectations. It was too hot, even if he was so calm, he couldn't help being excited, because there were two more games to come.

As the saying goes: I would rather be the head of a chicken than the queen of a cow.If you have the strength to take the first place, who wouldn't be tempted?
In addition, the chief of the county examination has preferential treatment. He can skip the government examination and directly participate in the hospital examination, which means that he can pass two tests in one test.

At this time, crying sounded in his ears. Jia Tong cried, because he failed the ranking and didn't even make it to the sub-ranking list, but Zhou Zheng barely made it to the sub-ranking list and could continue to participate in the third round. This kid had a hint of joy on his face, but he didn't dare to show it.

"Obviously I wrote half of the article, but you just broke the question, why did I fall off the list, but you are still on the list?" Jia Tong asked Zhou Zhengdao calmly while crying.

Zhou Zheng suddenly became unhappy, and argued: "Although I only broke the question, but my gist is correct, and your gist is wrong, what's the use of writing half an article, and it's a matter of course that I failed."

Jia Tong said angrily: "Why do you say that my main idea is wrong and yours is right? It's not fair, there must be tricks in it."

Zhou Zheng sneered and said: "I am not good enough but doubt others, Jia Tong, I, Zhou Zheng, am ashamed to be with you." After speaking, he walked away.

Hey, the boat of friendship turns upside down, no wonder, Zhou Zheng agreed to accompany Jia Tong to fail the ranking the day before yesterday, now Jia Tong failed the ranking, but Zhou Zheng got on the list, this contrast naturally made Jia Tong unbearable.You obviously agreed to shave your head together, but you fucking secretly baked it with oil, it's really hateful!
Jia Jie was not in the mood to persuade the fight at this time, because he also failed the exam, falling from the 45th place in the team case to the tenth place in the sub-list. If he still fails in the next exam, I am afraid that he will say goodbye to the county exam!

Jia Jie took a look at Jia Huan and asked, "Third Master must have done well in the exam this time, right? Where is he ranked now?"

Because the seat number was used to commit the crime, Jia Jie didn't know where Jia Huan was in the current ranking. To avoid provoking him, Jia Huan just replied vaguely: "It's lucky that I'm still on the list, and I can continue to participate in the next round." After speaking, he turned and walked away.

Jia Jie only thought that Jia Huan also failed the exam, and his ranking was a bit low, so I am embarrassed to say that my mind is more balanced. At this moment, I saw Hou Renjie passing by with a dejected expression.

Hou Renjie looked embarrassed. For the first time, he didn't retort. He just let out a cold snort and walked straight over. It turned out that he really failed the exam in the second round, falling from 48th in the outer circle to [-]th, which happened to be where Jia Huan was in the last round.

Seeing Hou Renjie deflated, Jia Jie couldn't help being in a good mood, and hurried to chase Jia Huan.
