Chapter 379: Imperial Examination
After this An Wanhua premature birth incident, the palace seems to have fallen into an eerie tranquility. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Those low-ranking concubines don't need to say much, and they can't make any waves.
Even Concubine Zuo Shu and Concubine Wei Guifei have given birth to a lot.
In addition, the emperor has been busy preparing for the imperial examination these days, and he has not entered the harem for several days, and the entire harem is as quiet as a windless lake.
Concubine Zuo Shu was just that, the emperor chose to let Liu Ying go, and threw the pot to some Mengli spies, he already knew that the emperor knew the truth, so he was more low-key and restrained.
And Wei Guifei put all her enthusiasm into the second prince.
Wei Guifei and An Wanhua are not familiar with each other, and the Yaohua Palace and Yanning Palace where she lives are separated by 108,000 miles, but even so, it can't stop Wei Guifei from running to Yanning Palace twice in three days to see the second prince.
At the beginning, Tang Fei thought that Wei Guifei was just thinking about raising the second prince, but after so long, the emperor was busy with the imperial examination every day, and he didn't have the slightest intention of letting her raise the second prince at all.
But that's it, Concubine Wei still runs to Yanning Palace every day.
At this time, Tang Fei knew that Wei Guifei was afraid that she really liked these two princes.
It's really sad to think about.
But Tang Fei wouldn't be stupid enough to pity Concubine Wei.
This Wei Guifei has been opposed to herself since she entered the palace, and whenever she has a little free time and some opportunities, she thinks about how to harm herself, or add to her own blockage.
Tang Fei is willing to be tolerant of her relatives and friends and chooses to forgive, because she knows that these individuals are good to her.
But for this kind of 'hostile force' that has only stood on the opposite side of himself from beginning to end, it is impossible for Tang Fei to forgive them and understand them even if he wants to break his head.
No matter how hard you have all kinds of grievances and all kinds of reasons, it is wrong to think that you want to harm others.
Don't say anything that doesn't really hurt you, or say something like being grateful to these people who want to hurt you and make you mature.
She wants to hurt you, she wants you to get hurt, she wants you to die!
You should be thankful for nothing but yourself.
Even if you really become strong and brave because of those things, it is not the credit of the stabbing man.
It's yourself who makes you better, it's you who didn't give up on yourself after you got hurt, and it has nothing to do with the person who hurt you.
It is others who stick the knife, and it is yourself who draws the knife.
Forgive those who need to be forgiven, and those who don't deserve to forgive don't need to force themselves to forgive.
Tolerance makes people feel free, but it's not wrong to hate it.
If you should be white-eyed, you should shake your face, you should hate it, you should take revenge, and if you should retaliate, it is not anyone's flush toilet, why do you have to pretend to be very happy when you eat?
Tang Fei didn't like Wei Guifei and didn't like Zuo Shufei.
Even if she knew they were just poor women without the love of their husbands, but so what?
Just like Wei Guifei and Zuo Shufei don't need to be pitied, Tang Fei doesn't want to pity them!
In this world, who wants sympathy from whom? Who is better off than whom?
If you have to be pitiful, it is better to take pity on the poor people who are not fed and clothed because of social problems.
The emperor has been very busy lately, and because of the concessions of the left minister, his imperial examination policy has been implemented faster.
Every time a new policy is to be implemented, the difficulties and pressures encountered are not ordinary.
Because it is new, there is no experience from the past, so it can only 'cross the river by feeling the stones'.
It's spring now, and it's almost summer.
Because it was the first time to hold the imperial examination, it was quite a bit of a try, so it was not shaped like later generations, and what 'spring and 'autumn festivals' were held.
The test is only taken once a year.
There is no layer-by-layer selection like our later generations in this exam, what is the talent, the promotion, that is, all the people who want to take the exam, come to Shengjing City in the autumn, take the test once, it will be good.
It's not that the emperor wants to be so simple, it's just that this exam hasn't formed a scale yet.
First of all, this is a new deal, and before each new deal is released, people always have to wait and see for a while, and when they find out that it is really a good thing, everyone will flock to it.
That's pretty much the case with every policy in the world.
Not to mention the poor talents that the emperor most hopes to recruit, not everyone has the courage to break the kettle, and is willing to leave their already abundant family property and come to Shengjing City to take the exam.
But not everyone has that kind of courage.
Secondly, there are some problems that need to be encountered in the process of implementing the imperial examination policy.
I think it's simple, but when I really start doing it, there are still many and complicated problems.
For example, the venue of the exam, the format of the exam, what the test questions are, how to prevent fraud, and so on.
These things need to be tested and summarized, and it is indeed not suitable to start a large-scale event that costs people and money immediately.
Moreover, the emperor really has to take into account the feelings of those noble powers.
The emperor never thought of eating a fat man in one bite.
Reform has always to be gradual and gradual, like 'boiling a frog in warm water' so as not to provoke a strong backlash.
The emperor didn't plan to use a single imperial examination to reshuffle the forces in the court.
If the change is complete, it will be difficult to sleep and have a hard-to-face confrontation with the aristocratic class in the court, in this way, whether the imperial power wins or has no choice but to compromise, it will always have a big impact on the stable development of the country.
The main force of this imperial examination should still be some men who have some power and money in their families.
Because of such people, they can afford to provide for their children's education and pay for their travel expenses to Beijing to take the exam.
In this way, it also shows that most of the talents selected in this scientific examination are still the sons and daughters of some aristocratic powers.
In this way, there will be no greater resistance and backlash.
The emperor is not in a hurry, take your time, the longer the time passes, the more talents can be attracted.
After the end of the first scientific examination, these talents selected by the imperial examination to enter the imperial court will become a new force in the court, and at the same time, their success is a living signboard, stimulating more and more people to embark on the big ship of the imperial examination.
The emperor has always been a pragmatic person, he does not particularly value whether a person can compose poems or write articles, but attaches more importance to a person's ability to solve practical problems.
Because of this, the test questions of the imperial examination are also very different from the Baguwen we know in modern times.
Speaking of which, it is more like the examination of our modern civil servants, and the questions are all some: how to calculate taxes? How to detect tax evasion? What to do in case of drought? What to do if there is a lot of water? Preventive measures and emergency treatment of the plague? ……
These are all the practical problems that will be encountered in being an official, and after being summarized, the examination papers will be issued by the emperor himself.
The emperor was very busy because of these trivial matters of the scientific expedition, and Tang Fei was not idle. (To be continued.) )
