Chapter 550: Wait and See

Zhao Zhen stood outside the hall, looking steadily ahead.

Queen Cao is at the side and behind.

the sun is big.

Chen Zhongheng went over and said, "Guan, please hold an umbrella."

The sun was shining brightly, and Chen Zhongheng was worried that something would happen to him.

Zhao Zhen's cheeks were a little slack, and he shook his head slightly.

"He is complaining about me, all the time. So he refuses to come in and see me..."

Chen Zhongheng glanced at Queen Cao from the side, with pleading eyes.

Queen Cao shook her head slightly.

After getting the news that Zhao Zongshi was about to enter the palace, Zhao Zhen's mood was not very stable. What he needed at this moment was to see that person, not hide from the sun.

The adopted son is coming back.

Zhao Zhen has no children, but he has never given up. Only now does he know that he does not have that fate.

Since there is no such fate, the emperor's instinct will revive.

"I've met the king!"

The shout came and Zhao Zhen's body shook. He stood on his tiptoes a little and frowned slightly.

"I'm coming!"

A chamberlain ran in, and then Zhao Zongshi walked in.

He looked up and saw Zhao Zhen and stopped.

Zhao Zhen took a step forward and stopped.

Zhao Zhen's expression gradually calmed down and he said, "You're here."

"yes."

Zhao Zongshi came forward and saluted, raised his head and said, "It's my fault that I worry about the official family."

Zhao Zhen looked at him without speaking, and the atmosphere gradually became tense.

"Zong Shi has just entered the palace and is a bit unfamiliar. Officials, aren't you satisfied with the names those people gave you? Can you get it now?"

The atmosphere was not right, and Queen Cao decisively stepped in to mediate.

Zhao Zhen asked: "What should you call me?"

Zhao Zongshi smiled and said, "Dad."

A smile appeared on Zhao Zhen's face and he said: "Your generation has to have a Japanese character. Zhongshu chose ten. I looked around and thought about it all night. Then I got up and thought about it, and finally settled on one character."

"Akebono."

Before a prince becomes a crown prince, he must change his name.

Zhao Zongshi leaned down and bowed: "Yes."

From then on he was Zhao Shu.

Zhao Zhen said with a smile: "Where is Zhong Zhen?"

Zhao Zongshi said: "Zhong Zhen...he is used to being wild outside. I am worried that he will make mistakes when he enters the palace, so I want to take it easy."

"Okay, but it's not allowed to grow long."

Zhao Zhen said with a smile: "You go and stay at Qingning Palace. If you need anything, just ask someone to pick it up."

"yes."

Qingning Palace is almost boring, the palace in front is better.

But Zhao Zongshi didn't care about this.

He followed the chamberlain out, and when he reached the door, he slowly turned around and took a look.

Zhao Zhen was smiling, and Queen Cao looked calm.

…

"The prince is back!"

After a shout, Zhao Yunrang's voice was heard: "The soul is calling! Get out!"

He hurried into the house, and both the old servant and Asu couldn't help laughing.

On such a hot day, he wore a lot of clothes, which made him look bloated.

And he was wearing a hat, like an old country man.

"It's so hot, old man!"

The old servant and Asu went to help. Because they had too many clothes on, they took off one piece and another, so it took a long time before they were left with only one piece of clothing.

"Fan the wind and come up to the ice basin!"

Zhao Yunrang was extremely hot, but the old servant said: "Alang, you should take a bath, otherwise you will catch a cold."

Zhao Yunrang stared, but the old servant was unmoved: "The water has been prepared a long time ago."

Later, Zhao Yun let him come out of the shower and laughed: "I disguised myself and watched the Thirteenth Prince enter the palace. It was so refreshing. According to my words, there will be enough wine and meat in the mansion today. In addition... Han Qi contributed a lot to this matter, but I I don't like this person. Shen An has contributed a lot, so I invited him here."

The old servant said: "The test will be given tomorrow..."

…

In the last imperial examination, the scene where Taixue came out on top is still vivid in my mind, and a new subject is here again.

In the restaurant, those who think they will definitely pass the exam come to relax, and those who think they will definitely not pass the exam also come to relax.

"I'm afraid I wrote more articles and poems last year than I did in the previous 20 years. Now I can open my mouth when I see a topic."

"Where's the article?"

"Articles? If you write too many articles, you can always find the context. When you see the title, your mind will follow it..."

"It's just bitter! It's really bitter!"

"If you want to be an official, how can you do it without suffering?"

"But this time it was really painful. After a year, I felt like I was in a daze. My mind was filled with poems and articles and nothing else."

"Yes! I used to go to a brothel to drink and play with women. Now...when I go to a brothel, I don't think about the women, but the topic..."

A group of candidates were complaining to each other. Someone stood up and said: "Last time Taixue became a blockbuster, how proud were those people? This time we are making a comeback. According to someone, the candidates this time are probably using Shen An's method of asking questions. Taixue...look at how they cry this time!"

This remark resonated, and some candidates said: "The question-answering method is useful, very useful. It's just a disgrace. The qualifications of Taixue's students are just that, are they higher than us?"

"impossible!"

"There are so many talented people in the world. How many of them have entered the Imperial Academy? If Shen An hadn't caught us off guard with the method of "Ti Hai" last time, how could they have come out on top?"

Everyone gradually became excited, and someone stood up and shouted: "Everyone, learning lies in the world, not in Taixue, right?"

These words are somewhat confusing.

The last time the imperial examination caused great sorrow to the candidates all over the world, today we all come here to gather together, which actually means taking an oath.

"right!"

Everyone cheered, and the shopkeeper looked on with a smile. For him, it doesn't matter who wins or loses, as long as business is good.

But the guys gathered together and muttered.

"After the imperial edict was issued, a certain family made the Golden Fertilizer Pill. After a good harvest, life will be better."

"And there's that heart-saving pill!"

"Taizhao is a good person. These students are ignorant and incompetent. They look like..."

"A male dog in heat."

"Hey, who is that person?"

"Awaiting the edict..."

"I've seen the imperial edict."

Those candidates looked out the door when they heard the sound.

Shen An walked in and said, "The voice is not quiet."

The candidates were a little embarrassed, and someone said: "I just got carried away."

Some people were unconvinced, probably because they felt uncomfortable bowing their heads. The young man was so bold that he said, "A certain Qian Lin has seen Dai Zhao. I dare to ask Dai Zhao, is it possible that Taixue will come out on top again this time?"

Someone said angrily: "The method of Tihai was created by Tai Zhao. It's shameless to be proud of what Tai Zhao created!"

"Yes, you shouldn't be so proud."

"Someone is wrong."

Several candidates bowed to Shen An in surprise.

It is a virtue to drink water without forgetting the man who dug the well.

Shen An looked at him and said nothing for a long time.

Qian Lin still held his head high, showing no fear at all.

Shen An nodded slightly and said, "We'll see."

After he left here, he went to Taixue.

Taixue has suspended classes today. When Shen An left, only Guo Qian and others were there, as well as more than a dozen old Confucians.

"Do students have confidence?"

Guo Qian shook his head and said: "It's just normal. Nowadays, students all over the country have learned to do more questions. They all think that they are not sure, but..."

There was admiration in his eyes, "You invited these great scholars to study the test questions of the past years, and also to think about the people who might ask the questions this year, as well as the possible marking officers, to see what style of writing they like..."

Chen Ben also lowered his head, "You started this matter after finishing high school. At that time, I said you were a little too eager, but now I am convinced."

Shen An smiled and said: "Everything remains the same. The key is to answer the test and save the test. But how can we guess the question? How can we write an article and poem that the examiner likes? This needs to be thought about."

"At the beginning, some people said that there were too many candidates and it was difficult to find them, but today's officials have been in power for many years, and their temperaments have been finalized. As long as you carefully explore, just like fishing fish from a lake, you will continue to narrow the scope and finally determine a scope. It’s screening, also called..."

Also called big data!

However, there are no conditions for future generations at this moment, so it can only be analyzed manually.

"Next year! I, Taixue, will still come out on top in next year's provincial examination!"

Shen An smiled and said, "We'll see!"

…

The examination was still carried out step by step. In the examination room of Kaifeng Mansion, the candidates could not help but smile when they got the questions and looked around.

Everyone was looking at their left and right, and the brave ones even dared to look back.

——It’s done!

Working on the questions crazily for a long time will bring you proficiency. Once you get the questions, you will have the proficiency of drafting.

Everyone was smiling, calmly and proudly.

The spring breeze is proud of the horse's hooves and smiles.

"Sit tight and don't whisper to each other, otherwise we will all be kicked out!"

The patrol came and shouted loudly, and the candidates quickly sat upright.

At this moment, most candidates are thinking of one person.

Shen An...

His method of writing questions... is really good!

As for the small words and great righteousness, the words of the saint...

Sorry, right now I just want to pass the exam and then reach the peak of my life.

Human nature is cut open in these subtle ways, and no one is immune.

Everyone lowered their heads, and gradually someone began to write.

The atmosphere in the examination room gradually became quiet, leaving only the faint sound of writing.

This has never happened before.

During the past exams, most of the candidates were pondering over the questions and writing the drafts with a frown on their faces.

Several examiners looked at each other, and someone whispered: "Shen An used that method of writing questions. Nowadays, candidates write like a master, very fast."

"That man... he has turned articles and poems into something that is available on the market. Everyone can learn from it and take the exam. What will happen in ten or twenty years?"

"At that time, hundreds of thousands of people will swarm in one exam... It's scary!"

"The imperial examination will probably be abolished. UU Reading www.uukｎshu.net "

"It won't be abolished. It can only be changed. It can no longer be tested on poetry and articles."

"Then what's the test?"

"I don't know."

Everyone looked at each other in shock, but felt that this guess was a bit nonsense.

People are like this. They are always optimistic before a crisis comes out. With an ostrich mentality, they just muddle along.

"The Method of Questioning the Sea... will change the imperial examination, there is no doubt about it. As the founder, Shen An will definitely leave his name in history."

"But Taixue has lost its advantage. Shen An will have a sad face this time."

"He is shooting himself in the foot. He deserves it."

The atmosphere in the examination room gradually became lively, and the examiners were smiling, as if they were Maitreya Buddha.
