Chapter 110 The ancient meaning of Chang'an
Journey to Rihui.
He was really panicked at this time. Li Bai left, so how could he copy Li Bai’s answer?
How can I get a hundred taels of answer from Mr. Dong if I don’t copy Li Bai?
But now I can’t copy Li Bai’s test paper, so what if I do it?
For a moment, You Rihui's head was getting bigger.
...
Li Bai was taken to the next courtyard and behind, and the sound of breaking through the air suddenly sounded in his ears.
Li Bai looked up and saw that around the side courtyard, there was a man in red in more than twenty lives standing above him.
These men in red are powerful and have a knife on their waists. They can tell at first that they know how to practice.
From their clothes, Li Bai saw how many clues came, and he was actually a patrolman?
The patrol guards were directly ordered by the court, and they were guards who came to the local area to inspect. These guards would accept reports from the people when the governor inspected the places below.
If the governor saw the reports of the people, the matter was serious, such as collusion with demons, harming the heavens and harming the people, they would arrange patrol guards to capture the prisoners and bring them to justice.
Then give the people justice.
In fact, this depends on the situation. After all, a governor not only needs to deal with Jiangling’s affairs, but also has too many things below.
Some small things can be solved by the local government, or things that the local government has already suppressed.
They usually don’t go through old cases again, after all, there are too many of these things.
If you really need to go out and examine everything, who has the time and energy to do so?
Li Bai glanced at them and stopped looking at them.
He looked at the test paper, and he had already read the rough test paper.
On it is Confucius who summoned Mencius to meet Mencius and faced what Mencius asked, and then Li Bai filled in the blanks on it.
These difficulties are really much more troublesome than the county examination.
However, Li Bai did not read the book in vain. He remembered everything he had read. Even if he had never read it, he could express his answer based on his understanding of these sages and their position.
There is no problem with fill-in-the-blank questions.
Next is the couplet, a total of ten couplets. These ten couplets talk about mountains and rivers, the true feelings of the world, and birth, old age, sickness and death.
Li Bai thought about it carefully and wrote down the answer.
All that remains is writing.
This writing is particularly important. Compared with the previous fill-in-the-blanks and practice, writing can better see a person's feelings and talents.
Is the language concise enough, the vocabulary clear enough, and the fonts neat enough.
This shows a person's general cultural level.
On the high platform of the examiner, Bai Xue looked at Xu Shilin and Zhou's appendix and asked: "Two sirs, this year the government examination will be the same. What suggestions do you have for the writing subject of the government examination?"
Xu Shilin said: "The subject matter of this writing can be published by your college."
"Yes! You are all old scholars, and it's not a trivial matter to set questions."
"You just need to decide, Dean." He Zhongliang also said.
"Okay! Since you don't have any better subject matter."
"Then I'll give you a topic of praise!" Bai Xue said and pondered for a moment, and said, "Our Baidi Mansion is in a corner and cannot be taken seriously by Chang'an."
"Chang'an, the Queen is in the center, overlooking the territory from all directions and thousands of miles away. The emperor cannot cover everything, and the rain and dew are all mixed."
"But we can try to attract the Queen's attention and let him know that Xiniuzhou has a White Emperor Mansion like us."
"The theme is to praise Chang'an, praise the queen, and praise the Tang Dynasty, so that students can all use their strengths. Praise the prosperous Tang Dynasty, the immortal Chang'an, and the empress in heaven and earth."
"So that the Queen can notice our Baidi Mansion, give us Baidi Mansion more people-friendly policies, and strengthen our Baidi Mansion."
"Everyone is also from the White Emperor's Mansion. I believe you won't miss the matter of strengthening the White Emperor's Mansion, right?"
After Bai Xue said something, Zhou Appendix and Xu Shilin nodded at the same time.
Although their Baidi Mansion is a tourist palace, in the Jiuzhou of the Tang Dynasty, a Baidi Mansion is too small.
The Baidi Mansion in Xiniuzhou is really not something the queen can pay attention to.
Unless it can become a big mansion like Jiangling.
At least Jiangling is also a provincial capital in Xiniuzhou, so if you want to be seen by the empress, you can only praise the empress and praise Chang'an, and then write these articles to the Ministry of Rites and convey them to the empress.
Xu Shilin said: "Dean Bai, it's good that you have made a decision. If any student really can submit the article written by him to the queen, I will definitely thank him very much."
"yes!"
"Then Dean, please write the topic on the patrol sign!"
"Um!"
Bai Xue took the brush and began to write down the theme of the homework writing on the shopping mall.
"Praise the Queen, praise the Tang Dynasty, praise the Great Wall, praise Chang'an, and use praise as the theme"
There were ten preview cards in total. After the yamen runners took the preview cards, they began to patrol the exam hall.
When everyone saw this subject, they all showed a gesture of saying praise, "I dare to say second, no one dares to say first."
The main thing is praise, which is originally some nice compliments, who can't say it?
After reading the signs, everyone began to write and praise the queen.
Because the examiner meant to praise the queen, he wrote the queen first.
So everyone understands the meaning of the examiner, so they all wrote words to praise the queen.
Li Bai also saw the signboard.
praise.
If this is a very average praise, it can only be regarded as a verbal praise at most.
Chang'an, the Great Wall, the Tang Dynasty.
As for the queen, Li Bai was not very interested in praising her.
After all, Li Bai, the predecessor, was beaten and deposed by this queen. No matter what he wrote, others would feel hypocritical.
In the end, Li Bai decided to choose Chang'an.
Praise Chang'an.
Articles praising Chang'an flashed through my mind.
The goal is fixed on the 17-character ancient poem by a famous poet in the early Tang Dynasty. This is Lu Zhaolin's representative work, titled "The Ancient Ideas of Chang'an".
"The Ancient Ideas of Chang'an" is written by Lu Zhaolin to describe the prosperity of Chang'an. The streets are all connected to Rome, and it also implies that Chang'an is filled with darkness under prosperity.
The princes and nobles go out and follow the beautiful women and carts, while the sun rises and rests at sunset and runs hard.
The powerful and humbleness of Chang'an, the ignorance and ugliness of human nature, and the light and darkness of Chang'an are depicted in seven-character ancient poems.
The ending is a dispute between the court, with kings, princes and generals fighting for power, and excluding the virtuous and famous ministers below, revealing his helplessness and disappointment in his career.
How similar is Lu Zhaolin's life portrayal to Li Bai? They are both created to exclude and suppress people, and were eventually demoted to Western Xinjiang.
Such poems and essays simply write down all the portrayals of Li Bai’s inner heart.
So, Li Bai took the pen and dipped ink, looked at the size of the paper, and began to write down the "Ancient Ideas of Chang'an".
"Chang'an Avenue is narrow and slanted, with a seven-scented carriage in the blue cow and white horse."
