With his golden soul, after looking at the stars on the eaves for a while, Ning Jiang let his golden soul sink slowly and return to his body.

I stood up and moved for a while, and did a trip to another world's "gymnastics", and I felt that my whole body became particularly energetic.

Then he lit a candle, took another piece of rice paper, held a brush ink, and began to answer the first question.

At this time, his entire essence, energy, and spirit were adjusted to the peak, his attention was extremely concentrated, and various problem-solving ideas were rotating wildly in his mind.

He used the famous poem "I want to see you from a thousand miles away and go to the next level" in another world, wrote it into the poem, and then expanded it with this sentence to write a gorgeous long essay.

After the poem and the essay were written separately, it was already late at night. He did not sleep on the table, so he continued to sit cross-legged, relaxing his body and mind while writing poems through breathing, and slowly entering the state of selflessness that seems to be sleeping but not sleeping.

Whether it is Taoist breathing or Buddhist meditation, one thing is similar, that is, the eyes must be narrowed into a thin slit, between closing and not closing, the head must be empty, while sleeping or not sleeping. Just because when the eyes are opened and people are awake, they will be disturbed by various external things. When the eyes are closed, they will fall into complete darkness, and their thoughts will become chaotic and uncontrollable, diverge and have various random thoughts. This is also the reason why many people think that they are still dizzy after sleeping for so long.

Only in this kind of slight closure, or in a slight closure, or in a sleep but not in a sleep, can one adjust one's body and mind and enter a state of "selflessness".

As if this was the next day, he sat until the next day. In the morning, he got up again to exercise his muscles and bones, got some food, and then picked up the last paper and thought about it carefully. Through the adjustment of body and mind, everything else was blocked from his mind at this time. Only this topic and various related knowledge were like shells that could be picked up in his heart, emitting light bit by bit...

On the third day, early in the morning, Ning Xiaomeng came outside the venue.

Just because at this time, the sky became brighter and brighter, the candidates in the examination room began to come out one by one.

After the candidates came out, they gathered in groups of three or three to discuss the questions of this palace examination.

Ning Xiaomeng walked around the square without waiting for her brother to come out.

The sun moved to the sky. Before noon, the sky began to get hot and the sun spread onto the square. On the other side of the carriage, an old woman got off the carriage and came to her and said, "Girl, it seems that I didn't come out so quickly. There is a restaurant there. You should go there first to eat something, just wait there while enjoying the cool air? My wife and I watched here. As soon as we saw the master coming out, we would immediately notify the girl."

On the carriage, another old servant got out of the carriage and came to persuade him.

This old woman, called He Ma, had an accident at home last year. Everyone else thought that the girl would be kicked out and avoided them one by one. Only He Ma saw that Xiao Meng was pitiful and still served her. Later, Ning Jiang took back the position of the head of the family. Although the others quickly came back to curry favor with the girl, Xiao Meng no longer trusted them and left He Ma with her side.

Xiao Meng looked at the restaurant where He Ma pointed, and saw that there were two windows in it that could see the main entrance of the examination room. So she did not let He Ma and her husband guard here, but took them there with them. She asked the two old men to eat something on the first floor, went up the second floor, asked for a seat by the window, and ordered some dishes.

After a while, more and more candidates came out, and many people who had just left the examination room gathered in the restaurant. Although some people looked in her direction, they guessed that she must be the relative of Tong Sheng, so did you care much.

On her right hand, four young men obviously came from the same school, discussing the question on the last test paper together. Some people say that murder is illegal and should be executed according to the law. Some people say that law is nothing more than human feelings. In various cases, feelings are more than reason. That person avenged his father, and some people pleaded for him. Considering filial piety and public opinion, he should naturally be acquitted.

Not long after, an old man climbed the stairs, and the four people quickly welcomed him over, and one of them arrived: "Teacher, why are you here too?"

The old man said with a beard: "I don't worry, come and see, how did you do this exam?"

The man said, "Everything else is good. The poems and essays all depend on their own abilities and performance. This is just a bit tricky question."

The old man said, "How to be tricky? Let's hear it?"

Another person said the question of the question. The old man pondered for a while and said, "How did you answer?"

The four of them each expressed their own strategies. Three of them believed that they should be acquitted, but they started from public opinion, one started from filial piety, and the other started from the perspective of maintaining the law, believing that according to the law, they should be killed.

After hearing the four students' answers, the old man slapped the table and said, "Nothing, nothing!"

The four people were dissatisfied, and one of them said, "Teacher, there is no fixed answer to this question. I think it's enough to tell the truth, how can I mess around?" In the scientific examination, it is not uncommon to ask questions without fixed answers. In this case, it depends on the candidates' performance. What is important is not the answer to the question, but the process of eliciting the answer. For example, this question, emotion is greater than reason or reason is more important than emotion. It is all reasonable, and which one is better or which one is worse depends on their own ability to "preach reasoning".

The old man cursed: "I usually ask you to read more books, not only the Four Books and Five Classics, but also read more other books. This question is not tricky. This case was not compiled by the person who published the document. It has real cases in "The Law of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the People's Old References."

As soon as this was said, all four of them were disgusted, and the others looked at each other and quickly asked their servants, Shutong, to buy the old man's "The Old Quotation of the People" mentioned by the old man. Those servants, Shutong, ran all over the city. Finally, someone bought a book. Everyone gathered together to read the book, and then sighed... This case was reasonable, but if there were clear cases in the law but not quoted, it would be a huge loss of points.

In other words, this question tests not only the ability to "reason", but also the knowledge.

In fact, there are not many chances of getting the test for things related to the law. Most of the test questions are still from the Four Books and Five Classics. Despite this, in order to prevent accidents, most people still memorize the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty. However, unless they are famous, most people really don’t understand the various cases related to it. As for cases that are not recorded in books related to the law, even if they happen many times in reality, they are not enough to be cited.

However, this case in "The Old Inscription of Chengmin" happened more than 700 years ago. It was originally a very unpopular book and a very isolated case, so naturally no one noticed it.

Everyone sighed together, but then someone shouted: "Don't be afraid or not, how many people know about the case seven hundred years ago? Since no one has cited it, it is actually the same."

Everyone thought "it's right", so they lamented that they had not read "The Old Introduction to Chengmin" well, while glad that such an obscene book and such an obscene case were naturally not aware of it. In this way, everyone was still standing on the same starting line.

At this moment, in the window, the beautiful girl sitting by the window excitedly waved her hands outside: "Brother~~"
