There were more than a hundred scholars on the Yichun stage. It was impossible for everyone to be examiners to give questions. Three people were also elected from them. After being named by Juren Peng, Jing Yi and two other Confucian scholars surnamed Qi and Yuan became the question setters. Although Zeng Yu knew that these three people were determined and Lie and Liu, he was not worried because the questions were given by the scholars on the scene were temporarily proposed, and there was no possibility of collusion in advance. Moreover, looking at Lie Licheng's arrogant look, it was obvious that he wanted to win him with real talent and knowledge, which was very good.

Each person’s sutra is different. If you write the sutra, you cannot take into account both the questions. If you give the questions separately, it is difficult to judge the quality of the questions. Therefore, you need to write the four books. As long as it comes from the four books, no matter whether it is a question, it is fine. Jing Yi and the other three are limited to one question. Zeng Yu and Lie, and Liu Ersheng only needs to start solving the questions within the ten sounds of the wooden fish, and can answer them quickly.

Liu Xingzhi and Lie Licheng discussed a few sentences and offered to add two more questions, which means that Lie Licheng and Liu Xingzhi planned one question to let Zeng Yu solve the question. If Zeng Yu cannot break it within the ten sounds of wooden fish, or it cannot be solved well, then Lie and Liu will solve the question; otherwise Zeng Yu is the same—

In June, the sun gradually rose to the middle of the sky, and the thick shade of pine and cypress on the platform gradually shrank. Except for a few people such as Peng Xiaolian who also enjoyed the shade of pine and cypress, other scholars were exposed to the hot sunlight, and each used big sleeves or paper fans to hide the sun, but their interest was not diminished. Solving the questions is the favorite of scholars. Students and friends often write a question to compete for each other, but in this way, few people make a covenant in public, so they are all very interested.

Juren Peng stood beside the wall table, held the wooden hammer, and said, "Jing Sheng will give the question first."

Jing Yi took a step forward and said loudly: "Fan Chi asked me."

This is a sentence in "The Analects of Confucius? Yongye". After Jing Yi gave the title, he bowed to Juren Peng, then stepped back and stood with Qi and Yuan Ersheng.

Juren Peng was very happy and without saying a word, he knocked on the wooden fish: "Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Snatch-Sn

The wooden fish rings for the fifth sound, Zeng Yu said loudly: "I know the things and hearts of benevolence, and everyone knows what they are dedicated to."

Zeng Yu finished solving the problem, and Juren Peng had not finished knocking the wooden fish for ten times. Lie, Liu Ersheng first whispered to each other, and was dumbfounded at this time.

Juren Peng reminded: "Liesheng, Liu Sheng, the wooden fish passes through ten breaths. You two don't have to discuss it, just solve the topic separately."

The first question is Zeng Yu won. Zeng Yu not only answered it like a sound, but also solved it in a clever way. It can be solved quickly and well, and it can be defeated cleanly and neatly.

Yuan Sheng asked: "The words of the world will not belong to Yang."

This is the title of "Mencius". The complete sentence is "If the words of the world do not belong to Yang, they will return to the Mo". This is the question of the question. The question of the question is the most taboo to commit consecutively. You must not abandon the three words "then return to the Mo" and do not violate the meaning of the three words "then return to the Mo". Therefore, it is difficult, and solving the question is the key.

The wooden fish was cleared and just as the sound of the sound, Zeng Yu had already solved the topic: "I want to entrust the world to the words, which are even more dangerous if they do not return."

Lie Licheng, Liu Xingzhi had just opened his mouth and Zeng Yu had already recited the question. It was too fast, so don’t you have to think about it?

Juren Peng also stared at Zeng Yu attentively, and forgot to knock on the wooden fish a few times.

Zeng Yu was calm and sad at this time. When he was fourteen years old, his uncle, his father and his stepmother passed away one after another. His life with his biological mother Zhou became gradually desolate. At that time, the young girl Niu Niu was still in her infancy. The young Zeng Yu spent all day studying and practicing calligraphy in his uncle's simple room. He dismantled almost every sentence of "The Great Learning", "The Doctrine of the Mean", "The Analects of Confucius" and "Mencius" to practice solving problems. The hard work he made was hard for outsiders to imagine, in order to make up for students, so that his mother Zhou and her younger sister Niu Niu could live a good life, but if he endured the hardships, he might not necessarily become a superior person. He also had the vision and skills of dealing with people-

This second question is Zeng Yusheng. If Liu Xing had not proposed two additional questions in advance, Zeng Yu had already won. Now, Liu Ersheng still has a chance.

Qi Sheng asked the third question: "I fear the words of the saints."

This topic comes from "The Analects of Confucius", which is a chapter above. This time, Liu Xingzhi solved the topic in response: "The great man is afraid of the holy words, and he can understand the heavens and respect the heavens."

Almost at the same time, Zeng Yu also solved the topic: "Man and his words are in harmony with heaven, and a gentleman must be afraid."

The scholars on the Yichun stage paid attention to Peng Juren, and it depends on how Peng Juren judged. Many people secretly compared Zeng Yu and Liu Xingzhi's problem solving, and felt that it was difficult to distinguish between the superiority and the inferiority. Jing Yi thought to himself: "This question was done by Liu Xingzhi before, so it can be answered like a sound, but to be fair, Zeng Yu's problem solving is more elegant and natural."

Peng Juren said with an old face tense, "A gentleman has three fears: fear of destiny, fear of the great man, and fear of the words of the saint. Although Zeng Sheng solved the questions with a cleverness, he had a bad habit of the superiors. This question must be calculated, and Liu Ersheng won the best." Then he said: "Please write the question and let Liesheng ask Liu Sheng to answer them. It is also the tenth sound of the wooden fish."

Lie Licheng and Liu Xingzhi felt that his face was a little hot. Peng Juren was covering them. If Zeng Yu's word "gentleman" violated the first half of the sentence, then wouldn't their word "heaven" also violate the first half of the sentence "fearing the destiny of heaven". If the crime is committed by the superiors, the superiors and subordinates are not defined in this way, and even the examination papers will not be so strict. Only saying it is a difficult situation. Lie Licheng, Liu Xingzhi knows it well, and he cannot help but feel ashamed.

The scholars on the Yichun stage whispered for a while, and then calmed down. Many people looked at Zeng Yu’s eyes different from before. They had previously rejected foreigners who hoped that Le Licheng would win, but now they hoped that Zeng Yu would win.

It is inevitable to win the local snake, and Zeng Yu was not angry and said calmly: "The title I came up with is - Zi said to Yan Yuan: 'If you use it, you will do it and leave it, and you will hide it. Only I have this husband'."

This is a complete sentence. Since Zhengde, there have been few complete sentences in the titles of the Four Books. In theory, this kind of question is better to solve the problem, but many scholars today are not used to it. Zeng Yu was surprised by this.

Peng Juren's wooden fish started to knock. After the seventh stroke, Peng Juren suddenly became angry and coughed, so he slowed down the knock on the wooden fish for a while. Liu Xingzhi finally solved the topic when the tenth sound of the wooden fish sounded: "The sage should hide it, and wait for the capable one to show it in detail."

Zeng Yu nodded secretly. Liu Xingzhi was worthy of being the first batch of papers in the college entrance examination. He was quite talented. This question was solved by Zhou Zheng, and he did not disappoint Peng Juren's cough.

The scorching sun was scorching on the Yichun platform, and the scholars were wiping sweat while waiting for the list. Liu Ersheng gave the question, and now he would look at the last question. If Zeng Yu was defeated so much that he could not beat him, then Zeng Yu won, and five questions and three wins.

Lie Licheng and Liu Xingzhi discussed briefly, and Liu Xingzhi bowed to Zeng Yu: "Young Master Zeng, I'm going to have a question, please listen to it - if it's useful."

This is the cut-off title in "The Analects of Confucius". The complete sentence is "If you use me, I will be the Eastern Zhou Dynasty." Confucius was born in troubled times and was responsible for promoting Zhou and defending the Tao. This title means how wise men use it in the world.

Peng Juren's wooden fish began to knock, neither coughing nor panting, and knocking evenly and steadily. Zeng Yu thought for a while and solved the topic: "The sages and wise men show their views to the great power of the world."

After solving the question, the wooden fish was just finished knocking ten times. No matter how hard you pick this question, there was no mistake. The Yichun stage was silent, and everyone was watching how Peng Juren still covered up Le, Liu and the other two—

Juren Peng was calm and took out a sweat towel to wipe his sweat slowly. He was not in a hurry to judge. Lie Licheng blushed and suddenly bowed to Zeng Yu, "It was Mr. Zeng who won, and I will admit defeat."

Juren Peng felt relieved and nodded, "Liesheng is very elegant and sincere, and he is a gentleman. The victory or defeat between the two sides is only a slightest. Do you agree with this wonderful literary battle?"

While everyone on the Yichun stage praised Le Lie Licheng for being open and honest, Juren Peng walked up to Zeng Yu and smiled and said, "Your problem is very precise. No wonder Huang Tixue wants to allow you to take the make-up exam. It's rare to have talent."

Juren Peng spoke gently and had a sincere reward. Zeng Yu naturally wanted to express his gratitude and respect to him, and he was indeed a little impressed: This is the versatile old man.

Lie Licheng didn't expect that he would lose, so he was not prepared for the 100 taels of silver. At this time, he urgently ordered the servant to quickly get the money. The servant wiped his sweat and said, "Young Master, how could the accountant give the 100 taels of silver to the young man? You should write a letter for the young man to take it back."

One hundred taels of silver can be bought in a large house with three stores and two yards in a good location in Yichun City, which is not a small amount.

Lie Licheng felt that this servant made him shameful in front of everyone. He was about to scold him. Zeng Yu learned from Linglong from Peng Juren and walked over and said, "Brother Lie, Brother Liu, we are making friends through literature today. The so-called bet is just a joke. How can we take it seriously? I just learned about literature and art with two brothers below, and I have benefited a lot."

Lie Licheng was proud and had a good face. How could he say that the bet was just a joke in front of everyone? Isn’t this a joke to be ridiculed by others without trust? The bet is still there, and the 100 taels of silver was not unpaid for him. He shouted: "A penny of one hundred taels of silver is not enough, go and get it." The pen and ink were ready, and he hurriedly wrote a note to hand it over to the servant, and ordered the servant to go and return quickly.

Zeng Yu bowed to Peng Juren again and said, "Wansheng wanted to invite Peng Xiaolian to drink two drinks in the restaurant at the foot of the mountain. I wonder if Peng Xiaolian is willing to admire him? Brother Fu, Brother Yi, Brother Yuan, Brother Qi, Brother Jing, Brother Lie, and Brother Liu are all rewarding him. Making friends with Wen is a friend, not an enemy. Brother Yi and Brother Liu are elegant and will not refuse."

Lie Licheng despised and said: "It's outrageous. You are a guest, so where is the reason for you to invite me? Of course I am the one who works as the host."

Peng Juren, who is over fifty years old, has experienced many experiences and has seen many people. He looked at Zeng Yu with a smile and felt that this son would be a character. At a young age, he is really a terrifying young man.
