Rebirth of the High Gate Mistress

Chapter 206 Eyes see six ways, ears hear all directions

Li Yu was young and in good health after all. After two days, he woke up after turning a bad thing into a good one.

When the news reached Qingfeng Garden, Li Lingjingshu was having breakfast. After hearing the good news, the two immediately put down their bowls and chopsticks and headed straight for Li Yu's Zhuxuan Pavilion.

As soon as Li Yu woke up, he heard Aunt Zhou talking about the dangers he had experienced these past few days and how Jing Shu had invited an imperial doctor to save his life.

Li Yu saw Li Ling Jingshu, smiled at his brother, and said gratefully to Jingshu: "Thank you second sister-in-law for saving your life."

Li Yu had a withdrawn temperament, and in the whole house, he had only heard him call the Duke of Zhen and the old lady. When he suddenly heard him calling someone else, Li Ling was stunned. He smiled and said: "Fourth brother is fine, too. It’s no wonder that your sister-in-law has been worried about you these past few days.”

Li Ling was well versed in the survival rules of aristocratic families. After learning that his wife was infertile, in order to help his wife gain a foothold in a high-ranking family like theirs, Li Ling not only often told his grandmother and mother that his wife was virtuous and capable, so that they could better understand The benefits of being a wife. Even in front of others, he spared no effort to help his wife establish her prestige and win people's hearts.

Li Yu narrowly escaped death. Even though he didn't understand the world, he couldn't help but be moved by the grace of saving his life. He looked at Jing Shu and said sincerely: "Let my sister-in-law worry about me."

It is true that Jing Shu wants to win people's hearts and gain a firm position in the house, but in this matter, she really wants to save Li Yu from the bottom of her heart.

Li Yu was still young and lost his life like this. No one would bear it.

 Besides, Jingshu is inherently kind.

She smiled and replied to Li Yu: "Fourth brother, the whole family is really worried about you. If you get better, everyone will be relieved."

Li Yu looked at Li Lingjingshu and nodded slightly.

"I heard that my fourth brother woke up." Not long after Li Lingjingshu entered the house, Xu Wanning arrived before anyone arrived and rushed over in a hurry.

She strode into the house and saw that Li Yu had really woke up. Xu Wanning stroked her chest and muttered: "Just wake up, oh! It's really the blessing of the ancestors, the blessing of the ancestors!"

 Li Yu replied weakly: "I'm fine, so everyone is worried about me."

Just as he was talking, Li Xiang and the third girl also rushed over, and then Li Xian was also pushed over by Grandma.

When Li Xian entered the room, he scolded Xu Wanning and said, "You walked so fast, and you didn't even wait for me."

Xu Wanning couldn't stand up to Li Xian in front of a seriously ill person, so she just rolled her eyes at him and muttered: "I think you are too slow."

 Li Xian was extremely disdainful when he heard that Li Yu used a stupid trick like stabbing his buttocks with a cantilever for the scientific examination. He was the top student in high school when he was eighteen years old, and he was an expert in handling the imperial examination.

 Li Xian was pushed to Li Yu by his grandma. He was always a good talker. Although he was not successful now, he could not help but talk eloquently in front of his younger brother when talking about the things he was most proud of.

"I'm talking about fourth brother, not me as the elder brother. It's a good thing that you study hard for the scientific examination, but you can't choose such a method of discarding the good and the weak."

Li Xian opened his mouth with the look of someone who had been through the process and was heartbroken over the newbie who couldn't figure it out.

“The most important thing in the imperial examination nowadays is policy analysis. If you want to pass the high school entrance examination, you must keep in mind that you must ‘see six directions and listen to all directions’.”

As soon as Li Xian said these words, the third girl couldn't help but burst out laughing: "Brother, what are you talking about? Are you encouraging the fourth brother to plagiarize?" Li Xian was full of enthusiasm and wanted to teach the newbies valuable experience. , being suddenly plotted, he was very impatient and gave the third girl a fierce look: "Children's house, don't cause trouble here."

Before the third girl could reply, Xu Wanning became dissatisfied. She glared at Li Xian fiercely and said angrily: "What did Jin Yan say wrong? What kind of **** experience do you have? When I heard what you said, hum! You were I think Tanhua must have been copied."

Seeing his wife scolding her in front of everyone, Li Xian put on his most ruthless look.

Returned to Xu Wanning: "Whose should I copy? I am Tanhua, who else can I copy?"

 The third girl smiled and teased her brother: "Go and copy the top pick and the second pick."

 Xu Wanning smiled and patted her sister-in-law's hand, encouraging her: "Three girls are just quick to respond, but they are more like me, sister-in-law."

Li Xian saw that his wife was always targeting him, but she didn't have any temper. He looked at his wife and said patiently: "You are too impatient. I just said something and you lost your temper. Please listen to what I say in detail." OK."

Li Xiang smiled and said: "Don't interrupt the elder brother. The elder brother is a veteran. Let him teach the fourth brother his experience and help the fourth brother in high school."

After hearing Li Xiang's intervention, Xu Wanning shut up. The three girls stopped talking and sat aside curiously, listening attentively.

Everyone's eyes couldn't help but fall on Li Xian, the man who was famous for his time.

Seeing everyone like this, Li Xian, who had been depressed recently, showed pride on his face and said slowly: "The so-called 'eyes on the six directions' is to see clearly the general trend of the world. Understanding the current situation of the court is the emperor's biggest thought. What is it? What are the political orders issued by the cabinet? Only if you understand these clearly can you think clearly when answering questions, and it will be easier for you to write things in the right way. If you are not clear about these, you can only memorize those sages. How can words be targeted?"

 He is worthy of being a top scholar, and everything he says is to the point.

Everyone nodded slightly after hearing this, with expressions of admiration on their faces.

Although Li Yu was still weak, after hearing what Li Xian said, he was enlightened and asked: "Then what is 'listening to all directions'? Please give me some advice."

Li Xian continued: "This is a more targeted approach. There are at least hundreds of decrees issued by the cabinet every year. All of them are important matters for governing the country and people's livelihood. How can you choose among so many important matters?" What’s the most important thing?”

Glancing at a room full of doubtful laymen, Li Xian deliberately made a mistake and said, "This knowledge is in the official school."

Seeing that everyone still looked puzzled, Li Xian explained: "The gentlemen in the official school are all great scholars, and it is these people who came back to the imperial examination to come up with the examination questions. Although they did not dare to reveal the questions openly, when they were teaching, , it is inevitable that you will speak out what you think is important. If you closely follow the footsteps of these masters, it will surely come naturally."

 Everyone was stunned.

Li Xiang praised: "The eldest brother is worthy of being a top talent. He not only knows how to say hello, but also has a flexible mind."

Li Xian said with a smile: "Of course, not all the students who occupy the most important positions in official schools can go to high school. The rest depends on personal talent. Who has more solid knowledge and who can be more knowledgeable about the same political affairs?" There is real insight.”

“In short, even if you have the right time, personal hard work and talent play a key role. But if you don’t have the right time, it is like finding a needle in a haystack. Unless you have a natural talent, even if you pass the exam, you will not be able to enter the top three.”
