The Scholars Are Dumbfounded. You Want Me to Distinguish Three Baskets of Rice?？
The scholars stared at the three baskets of rice, dumbstruck.
What were they trying to do with the rice? Weren't they conducting the court examinations?
Shouldn't the eight-part essay be tested and the contents of the Four Books and Five Classics be tested?
Before they came to participate in the court examinations, they had reviewed the Four Books and Five Classics as well as the previous court examinations.
But there had never been a court examination like this.
What a strange feeling.
This familiar feeling…
The scholars felt that something was wrong.
Liu Bowen stared at the three baskets of rice thoughtfully.
Li Shan Zhang was expressionless.
What was this kid doing?
The court examination was so solemn.
He actually brought three baskets of rice.
This was simply nonsense!
The Minister of Rites, Ren Ang, and the others also felt that Tidas was messing around.
They had never heard that the imperial examination required rice to be tested.
They wanted to see what Tidas was up to.
Above.
Zhu Yuanzhang leaned forward slightly and looked down, confirming that the three baskets were filled with rice.
He looked at the rice grains from afar, feeling curious.
What did Tidas want to do?
Previously, when Tidas taught Zhu Biao, Zhu Yuanzhang had been listening.
He knew that with Tidas's talent, the palace examination questions would definitely be extraordinary. He thought that Tidas would come up with something like "Madam Jun's sexual desire" again.
He did not expect Tidas to do this to him.
Out of curiosity, Zhu Yuanzhang asked directly,"
"Doctor Ye, what medicine are you selling in your gourd to make us do this? Don't tell me you want to use these three baskets of rice to test these scholars?”
He had a teasing smile on his face.
At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang thought that Tidas wanted this group of scholars to use rice as a topic to write eight-legged essays.
He did not realize the seriousness of the matter at all.
Hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's teasing, the scholars 'expressions changed.
It's coming, it's coming.
This familiar feeling.
The way they looked at Tidas became strange.
This guy.
Why did it give them such a familiar strange feeling?
Instinct told them that there was something wrong with Tidas!
And using rice as eight-part essay?
The scholars frowned.
He began to think hard.
Did the Four Books and Five Classics record the contents of rice?
They racked their brains and finally came up with some content.
The Book of Songs had written about rice.
"Yu Feng·July": In August, dates are peeled and rice is harvested in October.
"Xiaoya·Fu Tian" said: So he asked for thousands of granaries, so he asked for thousands of boxes, millet and rice.
"Xiaoya·Baihua": The pond flows northward and soaks the rice fields.
Rice was one of the five grains.
The five grains were millet, rice, beans, millet, and rice.
Now that Tidas took the rice, was it because he wanted to refer to the five grains? There were many records about the five grains in the Book of Songs.
If they wanted to use food to express the hardships of the people, they would have to suffer.
Among them, the Tang Dynasty poet Bai Juyi's poem "Watching the Harvest" also described it.
" There was also a poor woman holding her son beside him. Her right hand was holding a tassel, and her left hand was hanging a worn basket.”
"I don't know the heat when I'm exhausted, but I regret that the summer is long.”
"The taxes on the land have been exhausted.”
"Listening to their conversation, those who hear it are sad.”
Then, Bai Juyi sighed.
As an official, he did not have to do farming and mulberry. His salary was 300 stone, and he had surplus grain in the year. On the contrary, the farmers who worked hard had to pick up the leftover ears to satisfy their hunger.
The scholars stared at the three baskets of rice as a storm brewed in their minds.
They were thinking crazily about the description of rice grains, poems and poems about the five grains, and so on. They began to prepare a lot of drafts and wrote eight-part essays.
"Although this question is difficult, it can be solved."
The scholars thought to themselves.
For them to be able to stand out from the provincial, academy, and general examinations, they must be well-versed in the Four Books and Five Classics. They were the best among them, which was why they could reach the court examinations.
No matter how difficult the questions were.
They also had to think of a way to solve the problem.
"Your Majesty, you're right. This official's question is three baskets of rice. What the examinees need to do is to identify these rice and give their answers.”
Tidas replied.
Zhu Yuanzhang stroked his beard.
"Just as I expected."
His voice froze and he frowned.
He realized that something was wrong.
"Doctor Ye, didn't you ask the scholars to write eight-legged essays?”
Tidas was puzzled.
"When did I say that I would let them write eight-legged essays?”
The officials were speechless.
The scholars were speechless.
Zhu Yuanzhang was speechless.
Alright then.
Indeed, he had never said it.
However, let these scholars give an answer by looking at the rice?
What was so good about a pile of rice?
Could it be that he could see flowers?
Everyone was puzzled.
He stared blankly at the three baskets of rice.
Lee Shan Chang was also puzzled.
What was this kid doing?
Although he could see the problem with the three baskets of rice, he did not understand what Tidas wanted to do.
This was unknown.
It made him feel a little uneasy.
Lionel always felt that Tidas was not a well-behaved person.
Liu Bowen stared at the three baskets of rice and his expression became solemn.
His intuition told him.
Someone's head was about to be lost.
The scholars looked at each other.
How should he answer?
Tidas reminded them,"You can touch the rice with your hands or smell it."”
Scholars:
Their faces twitched.
What was so good about these three baskets of rice?
At this moment, the scholars felt a sense of familiarity.
This was a strange question.
What a weird question.
Wasn't it similar to the exam questions?
They had been wondering what kind of magical creature had come up with the two strange questions in the general exams. Today, they had encountered another strange question in the court examinations.
It was confirmed.
The two strange questions in the general exams and this question in the court examinations.
It was from the same person!
The scholars looked at Tidas vaguely.
The thousands of words that came out of their mouths were incomparably f * cked up in their hearts.
Ta meow.
Why is it you again!
Forget about the exams.
You won't even let us go in the court examinations.
We don't have any grudges, right?
The scholars wanted to cry.
They all wanted to kneel down to Tidas on the spot and ask him to change the question.
Most of these scholars lived a comfortable life and did not engage in farming. It was undoubtedly harder for them to identify the rice than to kill them.
Some scholars dressed in poor clothes went forward with serious expressions. They grabbed the rice and carefully identified it.
They examined the three types of rice one by one.
When the other scholars saw this, they could only brace themselves and go forward to identify it.
However, how could they know the quality of the rice?
In their eyes, these three types of rice were almost identical.
There was no difference.
They really could not figure out why Tidas would set such a strange question.
Distinguish the rice?
What's so special about rice?
In the future, when they entered the court as officials, they would be officials, not commoners, so there was no need to identify the rice.
In their opinion, Tidas's questions were strange and useless.
Most of the scholars stared at the rice grains with bitter expressions.
It was difficult to write.
He scratched his ears and cheeks.
Some of the poor scholars sniffed and touched the rice, and their faces revealed a look of realization.
They picked up a pen washi.
His brush was flying.
He quickly wrote down the three types of rice on the paper.
The basket of rice was full.
A basket of rice was moldy.
A basket of rice shriveled.
