The Xiucai Section is also divided into three exams, with three days for candidates to answer questions.

The content includes a poem, policy analysis, classics, history, current affairs, and the content of the Four Books and Five Classics...

Regarding poetry, it is not difficult for Yang Fan, but there are many questions in it, but they cannot be answered casually.

Allusions will be quoted in the process of answering questions, but they cannot be used casually. There are also classics and meanings among them.

In short, if you want to write well, you must not have a single idea, you must have your own opinions and theories, and the most important thing must be in line with the examiner's ideas.

Although Yang Fan is the examiner, he is not the marking officer. Therefore, the answers must meet the taste of the marking officer.

This review was jointly composed by great scholars such as Kong Yingda and important officials in the court such as Fang Xuanling.

It can be said that these people are all reformists who support His Majesty Li Er.

The exam process went smoothly.

On the first day, Yang Fan made another copy of the poems and poems.

The next day I quoted scriptures and explained some of its meanings, which was quite decent.

The policy discussion on the third day comes from a conversation between Confucius and Zi Zhang.

The title comes from Chapter 23 of The Analects of Confucius: We can know the ten generations.

Zizhang asked: "How can we know the tenth life?"

Confucius said: "The gains and losses of the Yin Dynasty due to the Xia rites can be known; the gains and losses of the Zhou Dynasty due to the Yin rites can be known; and those who may succeed the Zhou Dynasty can be known even for hundreds of generations."

The general meaning is that most of the following systems were passed down from above.

If we understand this topic according to this topic, it is easy to say that it is an old-fashioned school that supports the same level of change.

But Yang Fan knew that it was actually wrong to write based on this argument.

This topic was proposed by His Majesty Li Er himself. This emperor is not a conservative.

Moreover, Confucius was not a staunch believer in the law; he was not actually opposed to change.

It can be seen from this that this topic was created to support change.

If you write a conservative article at this time, even if it is written in a colorful and brilliant way, it will not get a grade in the eyes of the marking officer.

So Yang Fan knows how to get started!

The central idea of ​​the article is to support the reform, but it should not be too overt.

After all, in ancient times it was easy to get punished for words, so you should write more obscurely.

If you write very straightforwardly, you are likely to create a lot of enemies, so you must be rigorous and think carefully before writing.

Although there were many articles about reform in his mind, Yang Fan had an idea after thinking about it.

I moved an article I read before directly here, that is Mr. Liang Qichao's "Youth Power".

The general meaning is to encourage young people to dare to innovate and have the enterprising spirit of reform, which implies the great spirit of hoping that the country will be strong and prosperous.

Of course, this article was originally prose and needs to be polished.

In Yang Fan's opinion, this article supports reform and ideological emancipation.

The description based on this argument is neither ostentatious nor too exaggerated, and it also contains the meaning of reform.

After writing for a while, I saw the black and clear fonts on the test paper. I checked it four or five times and breathed a sigh of relief when I was sure there was nothing wrong.

There was no pause in the process of writing the article, and Yang Fan was quite satisfied.

Mr. Liang Qichao spent many days and nights thinking about this article. He probably did not expect that someone would move his article to the examination room of the Tang Dynasty.

There is a relatively classic sentence in the article that Yang Fan likes the most.

The wisdom of young people will make the country wise, the richness of young people will make the country rich, and the strength of young people will make the country strong!

Written in Leanjing style, it shows a sense of arrogance and elitism, fully embodying the hard-working and enterprising spirit of the Huaxia nation.

Even if you don't read the article, just looking at the handwriting, there is an oncoming sharpness that is impressive.

Yang Fan looked up and saw that many candidates next to him were sweating anxiously and thinking about how to set the topic, but Yang Fan had already written it.

This is the benefit of standing on the shoulders of giants.

After I stopped writing, the three-day imperial examination was coming to an end, and it was considered a smooth ride.

Yang Fan finished the exam so early, and I have to say that it seemed boring to finish answering the questions in advance.

Other candidates may not think three days is very long because they think the time to answer questions is too short.

No communication is allowed during the exam, and you have to stay alone after writing.

Yang Fan looked at the partition in front, and occasionally heard the voices of scholars in front and behind sighing in the small pavilion. It was obviously not difficult for him. Such a depressing atmosphere was very uncomfortable.

As the rule maker, Yang Fan certainly cannot leave the game early.

If you don't lead by example, who will take your words seriously?

Looking at Yang Fan who was bored, Li Yifu quietly walked over and asked in surprise: "Master Marquis, have you finished writing so quickly?"

Seeing Yang Fan nodding decisively, Li Yifu's eyes burst into light.

As an invigilator, of course he also saw the questions on the imperial examination policy.

In his opinion, one word - difficult!

I didn’t see many exams where I didn’t even finish writing, and I was stumped by such questions.

With a sigh in his heart, Li Yifu was even more sure that following Yang Fan was the right choice.

Yang Fan didn't know whether Li Yifu was worshiping him or not.

Now that he has decided to take Li Yifu under his wing, Yang Fan has the means to deal with him and cannot let this guy raise his tail.

After a long wait, it's finally over.
Chapter completed!
