Chapter 978: Beheading and Removing Tails

Su Pei's opinion at the beginning was just as she thought, so she didn't pay too much attention to this issue. Born in a Confucian family, she is obviously more conservative than Zhu Si's thinking, and even she thinks that she thinks like a wise woman. However, after hearing Zhu Si's words, she found that although her man always had whims like a big boy, the depth, breadth and pattern of his thinking were incomparable to herself.

"Shiro, in fact, what you just said, even my brother and Mr. Tinglin have already realized it. Changing the examination method based on Baguwen was discussed with my brother and my father before we got married. However, all they discussed was whether to change the Jinshi Branch's eight-share ranking, but they didn't come up with any new ideas. If we talk about the so-called opportunity, I think from the current point of view, I am afraid that it is impossible to completely deny the imperial examination system, right? Zhu Si tilted his head, took a sip of the tea handed over by Mei'er, and tasted it: "I don't want to deny it completely, and the problem that needs to be solved at the moment is only in Jinshike." I am not stupid enough to insist on going against the world's masters before the foundation of the country is stable. "Hehe, if Shiro really just thinks like this, the concubine won't worry about anything anymore. You just have to figure things out and discuss it with your brother and Mr. Tinglin. My brother brought you up many years ago, but to him, it was just empty talk. But this kind of empty talk was also denied by my father who heard this, and it seems that my brother is still very convinced of the reason put forward by my father. After all, my father is the fifth Jinshi in the second class of Chongzhen's eight-year department, does his old man have more say than his brother? ”

Zhu Si returned the tea bowl to Mei'er, glanced at Su Pei and said, "Are you blocking my mouth with this?" The fifth Jinshi in the second class is too good. But you have forgotten that I have no merit on my head, do you want to say that I have no right to change this? Su Pei patted Zhu Si on the shoulder and said, "Why are you so careful?" If everything is as you think, then the concubine should keep her mouth shut, and you don't ask me. "Little sister, you see you're angry again, I'm just joking with you. You must know that there is a difference between a jinshi and a general juzi. The so-called talents in the world are all in the world, and the Jinshi is happy to play in the world. It's not a tragedy to be a son like my brother, but after all, there must be a difference between the view of taking a scholar and a person who has been in the Jinshi. So I felt that this time was the right time. ”

Su Pei's willow eyebrows, which had just frowned, stretched out again, but he still pouted and asked, "How do you say this?" "Do you think, we are going to open Enke this time, and the ones who will be admitted will all be the ones who failed the list before, right? Especially if you want to talk to them about changing the imperial examination, I think it will be very talkative, hehe. Zhu Si's laughter was even a little obscene, of course Su Pei knew why he was laughing, except for a few people who were proud in the examination room, I don't know how many people were tortured and crazy by the eight test questions. For example, Pu Songling and Hong Xiuquan, although these two are talents, they don't know how to take exams. Let them see the eight-strand test papers, and they are already lucky not to scratch their ears and cheeks and hit the wall.

Before the Ming Dynasty, Enke was also known as the special performance name, which refers to giving the township and people who fail to take the exam a second chance. After the Qing Dynasty, when encountering large-scale national celebrations, Enke would be opened. And Zhu Si originally wanted to open Enke was not the township test and the meeting test, he originally planned to reopen the palace test to give the previous subject another chance. Because such an idea has been revealed before, many people gathered in Nanjing City, waiting for Zhu Si to announce the date of the palace examination. After all, most of the palace exams are held every spring, and the lifters are not blindly waiting. But after Qu Renjie mentioned the poem and scolded Huai in Yiyue Tower, Zhu Si had already dispelled this idea, otherwise it would be impossible for him to give up announcing the date of the palace examination at today's court meeting.

came back to talk to Su Pei, although he already had some ideas in his heart, he also found that he was really not ready, and there was no complete plan that could be implemented immediately. So the topic with Su Pei is in-depth, after all, this immature idea can only be discussed with the people closest to him. Only when there is a real and mature idea can a small consultation be held among the ministers, and then it can be announced to the court or form a will.

"In fact, I want to break and create, break the shortcomings in the imperial examination system since the Song Dynasty, and create a new chapter of the holy dynasty that can set an example for everything." Zhu Si is still a person with ideals in the end, and when he said this, his eyes were full of longing. "Shiro thinks, where are the disadvantages of my holy pilgrimage imperial examination? How do you want to start it? "Su Pei was born in a scholarly family, not to mention that he is rich and rich. Compared with other concubines, although Mu Qing is also extremely studious, her knowledge and insight are one level lower than her after all, as for the other concubines, needless to say. Especially Su Pei's father, Su Lu, who was the fifth Jinshi in the second class in the eighth year of Chongzhen, also served as the editor of the Hanlin Academy after that. The fifth place in the second class is the fifth place in the country, which is very remarkable. Compared with the three people in the first class, the difference is probably only between luck and the emperor's likes and dislikes.

Zhu Si said: "If you ask about the accumulation of shortcomings, one is to ask questions, and the other is to interpret the scriptures, I believe that these two points are the two major shortcomings of the current imperial examination system. Since the Song Dynasty, the imperial examination has only taken the chapters and sentences of the Four Books and Five Classics as the title, and there are so few questions that have been produced, so that it has now reached the point where there is no title to come out. Ancient questions have formed answers, and because of the fear of repeating the questions, the scholars will copy the answers of the past, so almost all the current exam questions have become cut-off questions. Some of the examination questions are separated from the upper and lower sentences in the scriptures and used separately for questions; There are also those who cut off the head and tail of a sentence and only use the middle few words, even the examiner doesn't understand the meaning of the question, it's just confused. Isn't this kind of imperial examination a drawback? For example, I have seen such an exam question in the previous archives, saying: Mrs. Jun is impotent. Little sister, tell me, what does this mean? Is it asking the candidates how strong Mrs. Jun's desire for men's penis is? ”

Su Pei laughed so hard that she was on her plump legs, and Zhu Si felt that her brain was shaking. However, this feeling is still very comfortable, and Zhu Si has no intention of giving up this right, and is still putting his head between his legs to fight against this change a little, and enjoying Su Pei's body fragrance. "You're so idle, you've even figured out such a topic. And such an exam question is really unsightly, and the wife of the state monarch in the sixteenth of the Ji Shi of the Analects ...... and the seventeenth yang goods want to see Confucius...... The two sentences are put together, and they are made like this, but it is insulting. ”
