Chapter 217 The Ten Philosophers of Confucius

The test papers were handed down from the invigilators and the yamen runners who cooperated with the invigilator.

Everyone has three test papers in their hands. The first one is to fill in the blanks of sages, explaining the meaning of sages and showing the source of the sages.

The second part is to recite poems and write pairs. The poems will have titles on it, such as praising spring chrysanthemums, summer lotus, etc. If you write the pairs, you will have the first couplet and then the second couplet will be posted.

These are common test questions in ancient imperial examinations. The third piece is a piece of white paper, which is used to write policy discussions for them.

If this kind of policy is well written, it will be promoted to the Imperial College, and the Imperial College will be selected and then handed over to the emperor.

Of course! The policy that was not passed on to the emperor does not mean that it has not made any success.

If it is a technical process flow policy theory for the development of the Ministry of Works, then the Imperial College will recommend it to the Ministry of Works, and the people from the Ministry of Works will evaluate and understand it. If this policy theory is useful to the Ministry of Works, then the author who wrote this process flow policy theory can leave his name in the Ministry of Works in advance.

It is even very likely that you can just go directly to the Ministry of Works and sign up directly at the Ministry of Works after the imperial examination, and become a technical engineer under the Ministry of Works.

The policy of rectifying corrupt officials and other policies is a bit sensitive. Generally, no one will easily violate such things.

After all, no one knows that the people above the Imperial College have colluded with those corrupt officials or those who were all implied by the policy theory. If they accidentally offend that high-ranking official, they are likely to have no hope of imperial examinations in their entire lives.

Of course, policy theory is not about writing whatever you want, it must be about setting questions.

It’s like the policy of the previous provincial examination. That year, the Yellow River collapsed and the Yellow River surging irrigated the lower reaches and flooded several cities.

The imperial examination was based on the topic of water control policy, so that the candidates could use their wild ideas to think about how to use water control.

In the last session, they also selected 100 test papers from them, and these are people with real water control strategies.

Later, these authors were recruited to the local area. Those who could persevere became engineers of water conservancy projects. As for those who could not persevere, they had returned to their hometown and returned to their identity as farmers.

From this we can also see that who is a person who has real talent and knowledge, is a person who can endure hardships and creates contributions to the court.

It can also be seen that who is just talking about the war on paper without any practical actions and ends up missing.

Perhaps their chest has the idea of ​​great achievements, but if they don’t practice it, they will be able to be unknown in the end.

After the test paper was distributed, Fangliang mentioned the rules in the examination room. Everyone understands these rules. Don’t connect on the street. You are not allowed to look elsewhere. You can only look at your own test paper.

Cheaters will be disqualified from their assessment.

The provincial examination is very strict because it is selecting talents for a region. If these people stand out and rely on cheating to participate in the imperial examination, they will be laughed at for being incompetent.

This also made Xijiang joke, so the provincial examination was very strict.

Everyone understood the rules of assessment, so as soon as Fang Liang finished speaking, they began to look at their own test papers and stopped looking at others.

The first test paper reads who are the top ten outstanding students under Confucius, name, character, and praise from Confucius.

The first question has already stumped most people.

After all, everyone knows that there are many students under Confucius' school, and some students are deeply loved by Confucius, but some students are knowledgeable and talented, but they may not be deeply loved by Confucius.

From this we can see that Confucius must be filial, kind, kind, righteous, and honest to the students he likes.

Although some people are knowledgeable and talented and have broad thinking, they have no benevolence in their hearts, and Confucius is not happy about it.

Therefore, if you want to say that Confucius’ top ten outstanding students have a prescribed answer, not everyone can analyze it.

However, for Li Bai, it is not impossible to distinguish. There are too many masters. Those who are tirelessly reading quotations of sages, the lives of sages, and understanding the praises of students in the language of these sages.

He could see who the top ten outstanding students under Confucius's sect were, and this question did not show that the people Confucius liked must be considered outstanding students.

From this we can see whether they have digested things in their minds.

Some people wrote Yan Hui directly on it without thinking, and their name was: Ziyuan, who was fourteen years old and was a teacher at the age of fourteen. In the Spring and Autumn Period, Yan Hui was famous for his outstanding moral cultivation. Confucius praised him for his eagerness to learn and favored him as a benevolent person.

Everyone knows Yan Hui.

But as they wrote down the second, third, and fourth, they found that even the seventy-two students of Confucius's sages might not be able to write them all, so how could they select the ten philosophers of Confucius's sages from them?

Li Bai's mind quickly passed through the Ten Zhes under Kong Sheng's sect, Yan Hui, and his courtesy name was Ziyuan.

Min Ziqian, whose courtesy name is Ziqian, was a 72 sage man in Confucius. He was known for his virtue and Yan Hui, and was known for his filial piety.

Ran Geng, whose courtesy name is Boniu, was a kind person. He was known as the "Three Masters of Benevolence and Morality" of Confucius. However, his fate was bumpy and he could not escape the pain of afflictions.

Ran Yong, whose courtesy name was Zhonggong, was generous and generous, steady in his work, and was highly valued by Confucius. The locals called Ran Geng, Ran Yong and Ran Qiu San Ran. During the Warring States Period, some people even regarded Ran Yong as a great scholar like Confucius's saint.

Ran Qiu, whose courtesy name was Ziyou, was known for his political affairs. He was versatile, knowledgeable and talented. He was valued by the Ji family and was appointed as the priest of the Ji family.

Duanmu Ci, whose courtesy name was Zigong, was a favorite disciple of Confucius. He was clever and good at eloquence. Confucius called him "Hulian's weapon".

Zhong You, whose courtesy name was Zilu, was known for his political affairs and was a proud disciple of Confucius.

Zai Yu, whose courtesy name is Ziwo, was lazy and had no kindness in Confucius' heart, but this person was good at eloquence and broad-minded, but he was eventually beheaded for participating in the troubled affairs of Tian Chang.

Yan Yan, whose courtesy name is Ziyou, was the only southern disciple under Confucius's sect. He was good at educating the scholars and the people with rituals and music, and was highly praised by Confucius.

Bu Shang, whose courtesy name was Zixia, Li Kui, Wu Qi, Shang Yang and others were all his disciples, and they were very capable, otherwise they would not have been able to teach Shang Yang and others.

These ten people are called Confucius Sheng Ten Sages, and are the ten best people under Confucius Sheng.

Li Bai began to fill in these thought-out answers on the test paper, roughly talking about everyone's life experience and Kong Sheng's evaluation of them.

If there is a prescribed answer to Li Bai's question, then his answer should be correct.

No matter whether he is right or not, among the knowledge he knows and recognizes, these are the ten most outstanding disciples of Confucius Sheng and the Ten Philosophers.

After filling in the first question, Li Bai will read the second question.

The second question is about Boniu suffering from a serious illness. Confucius went to visit Boniu and said something.

This is another sentence from a sage quote. Those who do not read these sage quotes carefully do not know...
