A Timely Wife

The second exam questions are more traditional "Four Books" and "Five Classics". The first question is an intercepted sentence from "University": The way of a university lies in Ming Mingde, in being close to the people, and in ending with the ultimate goodness and righteousness. The second topic is an excerpt from a sentence in "The Doctrine of the Mean": neutrality without relying on strength, and the third topic is an interception from a sentence in "Book of Changes": To the people of the world, gather the world's own goods, trade and retreat , each has its own meaning.

Choose two of the three questions to answer, and Li Ruosong chose the first two questions. Compared with "Book of Changes", Li Ruosong is more familiar with the first two books. Compared with other people, Li Ruosong's answering speed is the same Soon, when the other candidates had just started writing the first question of the second exam, Li Ruosong handed in the paper again.

The general examination of the Great Chu Dynasty was held for a total of six days. During these six days, the court was locked. No one was allowed to enter or leave, no matter whether they were candidates or examiners, unless they had already taken the exam and went out, or had an accident and could not continue. For those taking the exam, the best thing about Enke is that the exam is scheduled in March instead of August. If it is scheduled in August as before, the candidates who fainted at this moment don't know how much they are.

When Li Ruosong took the test questions for the third test, it was already the afternoon of the second day. He did not open the test questions, but lay on the bed and rested for a while. I can't smell it anymore, and the number room is very small, which always gives people an inexplicable sense of oppression. The reason why Li Ruosong didn't take his time to do the questions is more or less because he planned to go out earlier.

When he felt better, Li Ruosong took a deep breath and opened the test paper in front of him. Seeing this, Li Ruosong was a little stunned. He didn't expect such a question to be asked in the third test. It is very difficult to answer, and it is really easy for him to answer these questions, because Chengdong has talked about similar topics with him before.

Li Ruosong remembered that Cheng Dong once told him that Da Chu had never implemented a sea ban, so how to deal with overseas countries must be a matter for the court to carefully consider. Now that Da Chu has firearms, overseas countries also have firearms, and even many firearms It is more advanced than Dachu, which means that some overseas countries are bound to have stronger military research and development capabilities than Dachu. If Dachu's strength cannot be improved, then sooner or later, these surrounding countries will definitely invade Dachu.

The emperor of the Great Chu Dynasty did not go to court for decades, but the entire Great Chu Dynasty was running very well, and there were no large-scale riots, and several foreign wars were also won by the Great Chu. It does not mean that the emperor is good. But Prime Minister You and the cabinet led by Prime Minister You are more powerful, so government and military orders will not be messed up.

Since there are sober people among the prime minister and the cabinet, when the Wan family has not fully grasped the government affairs, these sober people will definitely notice the movements of overseas countries and bring them up in the exam, so in a few months Qian Chengdong asked the caravan to convey as many important overseas events as possible in the fastest way.

Every time he received information from the caravan, Cheng Dong would call all the members of the Li family and the leaders of the Yanwu Hall to discuss. Among them were the exam questions. The first question was about the establishment of the school, and what is its purpose; The second test question is that among the countries in the South Seas, there are those who have succeeded in governing the country with foreigners, and there are also those who have failed. What is the explanation? The third test question is that overseas countries have come to study a lot of agriculture, and even listed it as a specialist. The inventor of farm tools, what do you think about this? The fourth question is how to solve the problem that many caravans in Dachu have been attacked by pirates at sea in recent years. The reality of receiving benefits in name, why.

Different from the previous two exams, the five questions in the third exam are compulsory questions, and the number of words for each answer should not be less than [-] words. Li Ruosong suppressed the surprise in his heart and answered the questions with a pen. Li Ruoshan and Zhou Jinyan, who took the exam, were also very happy after seeing the questions. Li Ruoshan admired Cheng Dong even more. His brother-in-law is really a great person.

At this moment, Cheng Dong, who was being thanked in the Qingjiang mansion, felt a little uncomfortable. The two worry-free little ghosts in his stomach were eager to come out, and they beat and kicked inside every day. Butler Zhang discussed with him several times and asked him to simply After drinking the oxytocin to give birth to the child, Cheng Dong always disagreed. As long as he thought of Li Ruosong's eyes full of expectation, he felt that even if the pain lasted for a few more days, he could endure the pain until Li Ruosong came back. For the children of the two of them, he still hoped that Li Ruosong would be the first to meet his own flesh and blood.

Regarding Chengdong's stubbornness, Zhang Butler couldn't help but sighed with emotion. He was sold into the palace by his family when he was young. Now that decades have passed, he is almost 40 years old, but he is not even a person who is a person. I don't even have the qualifications of a father, and I am afraid that I will never have a chance to have my own children in this life.

Li Ruosong's third test was also very smooth. It took only three hours from picking up the pen to handing in the paper. Like the previous two exams, Li Ruosong knocked on the gong after writing the last word to signal the examiner to come and collect the paper.At this time, candles were brightly lit in the tribute courtyard, and many candidates were still writing and writing, and some candidates had already fallen asleep at this time, presumably because they were too tired during the day and needed a good rest at night to recharge their batteries.

After handing in the test paper, Li Ruosong took his salute and walked out of the tribute courtyard quickly. As soon as he walked out of the gate, he saw Wang Ziqing and Wang Zize sitting under a big tree and resting with their eyes closed. Li Ruosong walked over and gently He patted Wang Ziqing on the shoulder.

"Eldest young master? Why did you come out? Did you finish the exam?" Wang Ziqing was taken aback. He didn't expect Li Ruosong to come out so soon. He originally thought that no matter how smart the young masters were, it would take four to five days. He could only come out, but he never thought that the young master would come out before the third day.

"Well, I've finished answering all the questions. It is estimated that the two young ones will be able to come out tomorrow. I'll go back to take a shower and freshen up. I'll come and wait for them with you later." Li Ruosong replied with a smile.

"Young master, we two brothers can just wait here. You are suffering in there, why don't you take a good rest for the night and come back early tomorrow morning." Wang Ziqing persuaded.

Li Ruosong thought about it, and thought it was okay. Although the two younger ones were really smart, and Cheng Dong had never separated them when talking about these things before, but after all, they were much younger, and many test questions were probably still the same. It takes a lot of thought to write.

"Okay, then I'll go back and rest for a night. You two brothers don't need to wait here. One of you is here at night, and the other is here during the day. If the two of them can come out tomorrow, we Tomorrow, I will hire a few cars and go back to Liujiagou. If the two of them are still inside tomorrow, I will go back alone, and you two will wait here." Seeing that the two younger ones were really young, he wanted to go back overnight, even if he had no car and could only walk on his feet. Accompany you back to the inn, I will watch over here, Zize, you can hire a few cars tomorrow morning, negotiate the price, and if it is suitable, it will be settled, if the young master can't wait, you first deposit all the supplies you bought back Follow the young master back first."

After listening to Wang Ziqing's words, Wang Zize nodded and said to Li Ruosong: "Master, let's go back to the inn first."

Li Ruosong didn't say much, patted Wang Ziqing on the shoulder, and took Wang Zize away from the gate of the Gongyuan. When Li Ruosong and Wang Zize were gone, Wang Ziqing turned around and continued towards the door. Looking in the direction of the Li family, it seems that the young master of the Li family is about to soar into the sky.

Wang Ziqing suddenly remembered how he was when he first entered Li's mansion more than ten years ago. At that time, he was only a four or five-year-old child, and he followed his parents into Li's mansion. Fortunately, their family entered the big house. It's not the second room. There are fewer people in the big room, but there are many things. The young master was only three years older than himself at that time. He occasionally saw the young master being bullied by several other young masters. The much older man refused to admit defeat, even if he was thrown to the ground with a bruised nose and swollen face, he just fought back without saying a word, even if he was completely defeated, he never begged for mercy.

After the young masters played too much once and threw the young master into the lake and almost drowned the young master, I don’t know what the master and wife told the old master of the second room. Anyway, after that time, the other young masters I never looked for the young master again, but from then on I began to isolate the young master.

Wang Ziqing thinks about it now, the young master must have had a very difficult life back then, but every time he faced them, the young master always spoke to them politely and never yelled at them. Instigated by anger, he never put on the airs of the young master, even if the young master and the others were adopted to the big house later, they were no longer always suppressed and bullied as before, but they never changed their attitude.

Now, watching Li Ruosong enter the examination room with a calm expression, and leave the examination room with a calm expression, Wang Ziqing understands that the young master he is following is about to radiate his own brilliance. After clearing the obstacles, the bright pearl is always the bright pearl, after all, it must be discovered and valued by others.

When Li Ruosong returned to the inn, Wang Zize called the waiter in the inn to bring in some buckets of hot water for Li Ruosong to take a bath. After taking a bath, he changed his clothes and filled his stomach again. I can eat noodles and drink cold water, but in just two days, I already found it unbearable. I think I have to change it in the future, otherwise I will really become a young soldier.
