The Enraged Zhu Yuanzhang Ends The Exam
Nine days and six nights.
The imperial examination ended.
Creak!
The entrance of the examination hall opened, and the examinees filed out.
Everyone's expression was very ugly.
"Damn it, who set this year's exam questions? They're so strange and difficult. I've never seen anything like this in all of the imperial examinations.”
"You think so too?"
"You too?"
"Brother!"
"Sob, sob, sob. You don't know how I was tortured by those strange questions, and I couldn't sleep for several nights. When I closed my eyes, I was faced with those questions.”
"I can't answer a single question.”
"Sigh, the exam questions are getting harder and more perverted with each batch.”
"This old man has been taking the exam for decades, but I have never seen such a strange question before. This is not something that we can answer.”
Zhang You followed behind the examinees. Listening to the examinees either curse or complain, he instantly felt at ease.
It turned out that not only did he not know how to do it.
No one knew how to do that.
That was good.
"Brother Zhang, how was your answer?"
When his fellow countryman saw Zhang You, he came up to him and asked enthusiastically.
"The first question was fine, but I was a little confused by the second question and the questions after that. I don't know where they came from.”
Zhang You replied.
"Eh?"
"It can't be?"
"Brother Zhang, you can actually answer such a sick question? I can't answer any of them."
"What does the first question mean?"
The fellow countryman asked.
Zhang You explained his understanding.
His fellow countryman suddenly understood.
"So these two sentences are from different parts of the poem. No wonder I've read a lot of books, but I've never seen such a poem.”
"Brother Zhang, you're so powerful, but you can't even solve the second question?”
Zhang You smiled bitterly.
"I really can't solve Madam Jun's indecent question. Who came up with such a strange and indecent question?”
"Wait, Madam Jun, Madam Jun!"
"Desire of the Yang."
"Yang goods."
"Isn't this the content of the poem in the Analects of Confucius?”
Zhang You clenched his fist and smashed it against the palm of his other hand.
The fellow villager listened to Zhang You's encrypted words in confusion.
"Brother Zhang, what are you talking about?"
Zhang You grabbed his fellow villager's arm excitedly and said,"
"In the Analects of Confucius, isn't there a saying that the ruler's wife is called Madam? Yang Huo wanted to see Confucius, but did Confucius not want to see him? The second question was the same as the first question. It was a cut-off question!!”
The fellow villager nodded in realization." I see. However, these two sentences are a combination. What does the examiner want to express?”
Zhang You shared his opinion.
According to the Ji's chapter in the Analects of Confucius, one could see the titles of people.
If she was the wife of the monarch of a large country, the other countries would be addressed respectfully.
If the country is weak.
The wife of the king would not be addressed as such.
At the same time, he also needed to be humble.
Yang Huo wanted to see Confucius, but she also talked about Ji.
The main point was that Yang Huo wanted to invite Confucius to be an official and work together. Yang Huo was a powerful retainer of the Ji family. Confucius did not want to be an official, nor did he want to offend the other party, so he avoided Yang Huo several times.
In the end, he was still met by Yang Huo on the road and invited to be an official.
Confucius could only agree.
This allusion was to show that Confucius responded to the strong and overbearing with a humble attitude.
If a person was faced with a tyrannical and unreasonable person in their daily life, humility could avoid disaster.
These two allusions had something in common. They both expressed that if the other party was powerful, they could show weakness to avoid disaster, and they also needed to be humble.
Zhang You told him all his opinions.
His fellow countryman suddenly understood.
"I see. I thought that the examiner was not serious, but it turns out that I misunderstood the examiner.”
The ordinary examinees were still cursing, and those examinees who knew the exam questions in advance had even more miserable expressions.
They were extremely depressed.
Why were the questions different from the ones they had obtained in advance?
They dared not say that the questions had been changed.
He could only leave gloomily.
Li Zhong walked out of the examination hall with a long face.
He returned home.
"How is it?"
"Did the imperial examinations go well?"
"Of course it went smoothly. We bought the test questions in advance, so how could Zhong 'er not go smoothly?”
"Don't you think so, Zhong 'er?"
Li Zhong's parents came forward and started talking.
Li Zhong's father was confident.
"My Zhong 'er has the appearance of a celestial being. These questions are definitely not difficult. Moreover, we have already obtained the questions in advance."
Li Zhong exploded.
"That question is completely wrong!"
"The exam questions we got in advance are completely different from the exam questions in the examination hall!”
"It's fine if one question is different, but they're all different!!”
"The exams are over. We're completely finished!”
"I have to wait another three years!"
"How many three years do I have? Where did you get the questions from? They're not accurate at all! You made me waste my time and energy, and you made me wait for another three years!”
Li Zhong's parents were dumbfounded.
That shouldn't be the case.
They had spent a lot of money to buy it, and that person had said it confidently. It was a 100% test question, so how could it be wrong?
Examination Hall.
Liu Sanwu, Tidas, and the others watched as the examinees left one after another and heaved a sigh of relief.
"The exam ended with a scare."
"Everything is great.”
"The examinees didn't notice anything unusual either.”
"Those examinees who knew the exam questions in advance, even if they knew that the exam questions had been changed, they wouldn't dare to make a sound. Perhaps they thought that they had obtained a fake exam question.”
"However, who leaked the exam questions?”
Everyone fell silent.
Revealing the exam questions was a capital offense.
It might even be the extermination of the family.
Who was it that did such a stupid thing and almost caused them to be implicated?
"No matter what, we successfully survived this calamity.”
Liu Sanwu said.
"Yes, in this way, our crime is to change the examination questions without permission.”
the examiners said.
Tidas listened to their conversation and secretly broke out in a cold sweat.
The mud horse had just transmigrated and had already gone through a life and death situation.
It was not easy for him to be a transmigrator.
However, he still had to see Zhu Yuanzhang's attitude.
Zhu Yuanzhang was someone who was extremely greedy.
Although they had passed the exam without any mishaps, changing the exam questions could be a big or small crime.
Especially when the test questions were leaked, it was a serious problem.
If Zhu Yuanzhang was in a bad mood, the heads on their necks would fall off.
"Take your exam papers."
"I'll send someone to report to Your Majesty about the general exams.”
"As for how Your Majesty will deal with it, it can only be left to the will of heaven.”
Liu Sanwu let the other examiners collect the exam papers while he sent someone to report to Zhu Yuanzhang about the leak of the exam questions and the change of the exam questions on the spot.
The palace was made of yellow glazed tiles, with double eaves and the roof of the hall. It was located on the white marble stone steps. There were spine beasts at the corners of the eaves, decorated with golden dragons and imperial seals. The doors and windows were separated by three intersecting and six water-chestnut flowers. It looked beautiful and exquisite.
In the main hall.
Zhu Yuanzhang sat on the golden Phoebe Dragon Throne, dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe, exuding an imposing aura. At this moment, he was teaching Zhu Biao.
"When the empire first gained the country, the heavens will grant the virtuous."
"Your Majesty."
The eunuch hurried over to report.
When he heard that the exam questions had been leaked and that they had been changed on the spot, Zhu Yuanzhang instantly flew into a rage.
"How dare they do such a thing right under our noses in the capital? Are we not good enough at punishing corrupt officials, or are they too bold?!”
"Preposterous, this group of people is simply audacious!”
