Chapter 915

"A bunch of bastards!" Ao Huang fell slowly and cursed in a low voice.

Yu Bachi whispered, "Fang Xusheng answered so quickly, maybe he was all right."

"I don't know you are half saints? If it's so easy to win the first class, the ten countries won't get a first class for several years. The key is not whether the test paper is difficult or not, but the speed is too fast. If the 30 page test paper needs to be completed in half an hour, who can complete the first class? As long as it's not the first class, they must have an excuse to attack Fang Yun!"

"However, Yifang Xusheng's temper should not be so easy to agree to their little tricks. Either he has a plan in mind or he has a backhand."

"The back hand?" Ao Huang thought deeply. Did Fang Yun rely on it?

Every twenty minutes, the test paper turns one page. When it turns to the last page, Shen Ming, the master book, smiles and says, "you guys, there's still time for the last hundred minutes. Don't worry."

Shen Ming looked at Fang Yun with a smile in his eyes. Later, Fang Yun spent more time answering questions. Later, he hardly stopped. Because there are several topics behind it, which are written by dictation, often thousands of words. Even if Fang Yun writes hard, he can't finish a page in 20 seconds.

Now, although we turn to page 30, Fang Yun hasn't started looking up and is still answering the question on page 29.

After more than ten minutes, Fang Yun raised his head, glanced at the 30th test paper and buried himself in answering the questions.

Time passed slowly. Shen Ming just stared at Fang Yun and pinched the time with his official seal.

As soon as the time came, Shen Ming asked the Yamen to put down the test paper and said loudly, "the time has come. Please put down your brush! If you write again, it will be regarded as failure!"

As soon as the voice fell, Fang Yun received his pen and breathed a sigh of relief.

The Yamen immediately took down the screen.

Several people looked at each other and whispered, "it's too fast. There's no time to think about some problems."

"Even if I had time to think, I couldn't finish the answer. I only answered about twenty-five percent."

"I'm better than you, just 30 percent."

"I'm close to 30%. I don't know how many adults are. Wen Yuanjun, how many percent did you answer?"

Wen Gu shook his head and said with regret, "the front answer is almost the same. The last ten pages have only answered about half. Where's Constable Lu?"

"Almost like brother Wen."

Deng Xuezheng said, "I'm no different from brother Wen. The last questions are not that I can't answer, but that I don't have enough time."

Shen Ming smiled and said, "the county test is not over, and the final answer has not been obtained yet. We can only get it in the marking room. Why don't we compare it with the county magistrate Fang's test paper?"

"I think it's good! Fang Xusheng probably answered the most!"

"Well, you can exchange your papers, cross review them, and let me read the answers of the county magistrate." Shen Ming smiled.

Fang Yun handed Shen Ming the test paper and stood smiling.

Shen Ming glanced at the crowd, coughed softly, put the test paper on the left, put Fang Yun's answer on the right, and read: "the first question is to ask how many years the book spring and autumn has gone through. Everyone knows that it is 242 years. If anyone answers wrong, he will immediately go to the holy temple and resign."

Everyone laughed. All 13 people except Fang Yun drew a circle after the answer in front of them, indicating that it was correct.

Shen Ming continued, "it's not necessary to say that the final conclusion between the ceremony hall and the punishment hall is about the dispute between ceremony and punishment?"

Everyone smiled and continued to answer the question. However, a few people's faces changed slightly, and Fang Yun's eyes moved.

The struggle between rites and punishments was a struggle for the holy way that swept hundreds of families in the Han Dynasty. It lasted for nearly 50 years. Finally, with Jia Yi shengmeteorite as the end point, the hall of punishment won a complete victory, which was also the beginning of the coexistence of punishment and rites.

The debate between rites and punishment, just because of the sentence "rites are not inferior to ordinary people, and punishment is not superior to doctors", led to the advance of semi Saint Jia Yi, the fragmentation of the courage of seven great scholars and the collapse of thousands of reading and humanities palaces, which can be called a human catastrophe.

The explanation of the temple for this sentence is: civilians are poor. They have no time to master cumbersome etiquette and can't afford expensive gifts, so they can't use etiquette to restrain civilians. Senior officials have committed great crimes, which should be covered up with obscure words. They should not use disgraceful punishment, but let senior officials commit suicide with dignity.

The interpretation of this sentence by the punishment hall is quite different from that of the ceremony hall.

The punishment hall holds that "up" and "down" correspond to "respect" and "inferiority" respectively, and the whole sentence becomes "etiquette does not humble ordinary people, and punishment does not respect doctors".

The explanation of the temple of punishment is: we can't exclude civilians from etiquette civilization because they are inferior to scholars and doctors; The penalty should not be treated differently because the offender is a senior official.

When Fang Yun came to Shengyuan mainland for the first time to read "the dispute between rites and punishment", his first thought was that later generations deliberately misinterpreted this saying in order to plant Confucianism. What he said was that civilians were not eligible for etiquette, and senior officials and nobles were not punished.

Fang Yun later read many books. Whether it was Jia Yi, Zheng Xuan or Kong Yingda, the comments of these great scholars on this sentence were similar to those of the ritual hall in the Shengyuan mainland. They were considerate of the common people, and believed that senior officials could be sentenced to death, but they should be dignified and do not use corporal punishment to hurt their bodies, rather than saying that senior officials should not be punished.

For Fang Yun, who lives in the ancient Chinese country, "punishment is not up to the doctor" has long been implemented, because not to mention senior officials, even ordinary people will not have punishment such as breaking their legs and feet if they commit a crime. They will either be imprisoned or executed, which can be described as "punishment is not up to the criminal".

There is no dispute between the temple of rites and the temple of punishment on the first half of the sentence. If you don't look carefully, there is little difference in the second half of the sentence, but one is to give decent punishment and the other is to treat equally.

However, the essence of the dispute between the two temples was the right to convict the "doctor".

Before the ceremony and punishment dispute, the punishment hall had no right to try all the scholars. Only after the ceremony hall deprived the criminals of their status as scholars, the punishment hall was qualified to try. Otherwise, even if the scholars were against the species, the punishment hall had no right to intervene without the permission of the ceremony hall. At most, it was arrest.

For the criminal temple and Legalist scholars who believe in Shang Yang's "the prince breaks the law and commits the same crime with the people", this behavior of the ritual temple is simply contempt for the law. If the ritual temple does not overturn its jurisdiction over the scholars, the criminal temple and Legalist school will never emerge.

Therefore, after years of preparation, the temple of punishment brazenly launched the struggle between rites and punishment.

Those who have seen the struggle of the holy way hundreds of years ago have long died, and all perfect records have been erased by the temple. Fang Yun can only understand the collision between the two holy ways in that year in a few words.

"Cabernet Sauvignon rises from Daofeng mountain, like blood, like a cloak, like a flag, and will not disperse for ten years."

"Above the city of Kong, there are bursts of thunder for months. There are thousands of miles around, and insects and animals don't sound."

"A strange light diffuses and condenses in an instant. It goes straight to the demon mountain. The thousands of miles of mountains and demons are like water vapor evaporation."

"Before the big fight, kongcheng men's houses were measured by the hour; during the big fight, they were measured by the breath, and they were angry."
