Future library

It was approaching noon, and the light was getting hotter and hotter. Xiaoxizhuang diligently prepared tea and sour plum soup, as well as a small amount of beef and pastries. It was close to the city, so it was convenient to buy some things.

While Shi Mo was preparing tableware for Cheng Jinzhou, he said nervously: Third brother, tonight is the day of the school exam that happens every three days.

Testing for the school? Cheng Jinzhou slapped his forehead and said, I almost forgot that daddy is going to take the homework test.

Yes. Shi Mo was afraid that if Cheng Jinzhou forgot, the two book boys would be the first to suffer.

Cheng Jinzhou didn't read any books, he was thinking about cheating, but he didn't think he could really pass the exam. Thinking of this, he immediately lost his mood to eat and drink, stuffed something casually, got on the horse in a hurry, and just shouted: Shi Yan, you stay Let’s deal with the food.”

One ride to the extreme.

Cheng Jinzhou's equestrian skills suddenly became better.

Shi Yan looked at the dust kicked up by the horses' hooves and hoped faithfully: Third brother must pass...

His wish is completely reflexive. As a book boy, if his master is good at studying, he will be rewarded; if his master is bad at studying, he will be rewarded - feudal lords have long used simple behavior to carry out scientific work.

…

When he met his father, Cheng Jinzhou also had expectations, but it was not for the school entrance examination.

Cheng Yun'an sat in the middle of the study with a straight face, holding a volume in his hand, shaking his head to read, and kept writing with his fingers on his left hand, like a standard scholar.

After Cheng Jinzhou simply washed up, he still smelled of travel dust. He coughed rather unaccustomedly and said, Dad, I'm here.

Calling daddy will make Cheng Jinzhou more accustomed to it, but Cheng's father doesn't care.

Most of the time, he is a very talkative person. Although he is unsmiling, he does not refuse to listen. Only on rare occasions, he will become stubborn and authoritarian - this is how he is when discussing etiquette. .

Like the most devout priest in the church, Father Cheng also has a great admiration for ethics, which is reflected in his strict view of education.

In the past, Cheng Jinzhou was sick every day and had no chance to receive his father's education. Now that he had the opportunity, Cheng's father almost became passionate. He gently put down the book, but with a solemn expression on his face, he said: These two days. , you didn’t go to private school?”

There's always something delayed. Cheng Jinzhou felt as if he had really become a teenager.

Cheng's father snorted and said: The study of astrology takes a long time. I have seen countless geniuses who were outstanding when they were young and became great when they grew up. If you choose this path, there is nothing wrong with it, but if you don't learn, which path will you take? The roads are impassable. Besides, the books and words cannot be lost.

Cheng Jinzhou was most afraid of being fined for a month, or having his hands slapped directly, but he was extremely immune to pure preaching, so he nodded in agreement without much reaction.

After a pause, Cheng Yun'an sat upright again and said, Okay, let me tell you what books you have read in the past two days?

Cheng Jinzhou was only 13 years old, and he was often on the sick bed, taking exams for school homework, so he would not ask for those awkward questions.

The breeze blew outside the window, and Cheng Jinzhou's heart felt cold. He bit the bullet and said, It's still the content of the Three-Character Classic, plus a little bit of Shujing.

The so-called Book of Books refers to the content of rituals and education such as the Four Books and Five Classics. The examinations in the Great Xia Dynasty have shifted from poetry to classics, and it is natural that the scholars' studies are tilted.

Father Cheng nodded slightly and said, Then let me ask you, what is the last sentence of 'Hua Ying takes the straight'?

These are not things in the genuine Four Books - of course, Cheng Jinzhou in his previous life had not read the Four Books. At this moment, Dr. Cheng could only widen his eyes, lowered his head and said, I haven't seen it yet.

Then let's start memorizing the Three-Character Sutra from 'Benevolence of the King'. Cheng's father was a little disappointed, but he didn't force it. Among 13-year-old children, the outstanding ones may be able to read four books, while the average level can only be read.

What is being taught in the private school is the Three Character Classic. Those with low levels of knowledge, or those who are not prepared to take the imperial examination, will read it for a long time, just like a basic course.

To Cheng Jinzhou, endorsement is like letting a crocodile eat leaves. He is unable and unwilling to do so. But on the other hand, he didn't want to admit his laziness, because without his father's consent, he couldn't take the college examination, and thus he couldn't have an independent space.

A 13-year-old scholar will be regarded as an adult, while a 16-year-old child is still not qualified to stand on his own.

Independence and freedom are definitely the beginning of a happy life. If Cheng Jinzhou could still be satisfied with the life of a wealthy family when he first arrived, he is no longer satisfied at all. It is like a wild boar in the mountains arriving at a farmhouse. It feels good to sleep and eat feed every day at first, but gradually, it is always necessary to annoying.

People will always set higher goals based on the present.

After thinking about it, Cheng Jinzhou rubbed his head and said, Dad, in fact, the main reason why I study poetry and calligraphy now is to achieve good results in the imperial examination...

Then you need to memorize it thoroughly. Cheng's father was an official after all, so he saw Cheng Jinzhou's tricks.

Dr. Cheng Xiao smiled like an anorexic rabbit and said: I want to spend more time on astrology. As for the imperial examination, I just want to gain the reputation of a scholar.

When I'm about to step down, I can still make you a scholar. Cheng's father has a pretty good temper.

According to the rules of the Great Xia Dynasty, officials took exams once every three years, and were promoted to one level after three exams. With the power and ability of the Cheng family, it was not difficult for Cheng's father to obtain the title of senior civil servant before becoming an official.

The only purpose of the Star Warlock's selection of scholars is for future prospects, and there may be some elements of showing off in it. These are not what Yin Lai's fame can provide, not to mention when Cheng Yun'an becomes a senior civil servant.

Cheng Jinzhou shrugged slightly and said, I want to get a meritorious status myself.

Cheng's father viewed fame even more eagerly than Liu Bin. Naturally, he wanted his son to take the exam on his own, but he actually did it out of trust in knowledge rather than trust in fame itself, so he still shook his head and said: Every time Individuals can take many college examinations, but you have to understand that every time you take the provincial examination, you have to take the childbirth examination, which is a waste of time. After a few times, you will lose your energy. Therefore, you must be prepared before taking part. You now……

He clicked his tongue twice and said, It's too far.

From this we can also see the difference between Cheng Yun'an and Liu Bin. The latter actually suggested from the perspective of risk that Cheng Jinzhou should obtain a meritorious title, but Cheng Yun'an is different. Perhaps in his view, he is young and powerful and does not need his son to consider these things at all. ——Just like most people, he will not think about his unexpected death and his removal from the title.

When luck is good, Cheng Yun'an's idea is right. When luck is average, he is also right. Only when luck is bad, he is wrong. Therefore, most of the time, people without risk awareness are correct. When they are unlucky, they lament that misfortune never comes singly...

Cheng Jinzhou naturally couldn't discuss risk control with his father. He was already prepared and said, Then if I memorize the Three Character Sutra, can I take the college examination?

This is the main purpose of Dr. Cheng Da’s return. Since the Great Xia Dynasty was very particular about family status, it was even more important to have an innocent family background. Without his father's signature, he would not be able to take any exams, not to mention that in Shaonan City, the prefect was the boss.

Therefore, even if you are prepared to cheat, you still have to have the opportunity to take the exam.

Cheng Yun'an shook his head slightly and said, The Three-Character Sutra is not enough.

Then add another sutra? Cheng Jinzhou didn't know how much Jiezi could put in after he entered the information. Two volumes should be quite safe.

If you can understand Zhu Lue, you can take the Tongsheng Examination. Cheng's father waved his hand and said: That's it for today. Don't aim too high. From memorizing Zhu Lue to being able to understand it, it only takes three or four days. Year, when the time comes, if you skim the rest, you can take the academy examination together and be admitted as a scholar.

The Tongsheng Examination is a small examination, organized at the county level. It is easy to cheat, but it is only equivalent to a qualification examination - taking the academy examination to obtain the qualifications of a scholar. In this way, those who are not able to cheat in the academy examination Comrades, there is no need to cheat on the junior high school entrance exam because you will have to retake it the next year.

Cheng Jinzhou is also considered a master of cheating. Once he has a goal, he immediately secretly makes up his mind: I will not stop until the little note cannot fit inside.
