Chapter 366: Zero-Score Essay for the Great Song Imperial Examination

Nearly half a year of training has turned a little boy into a low-ranking officer.

At first, Queen Tranquility hoped that Zhang Zhansheng would continue to study, just like the few people selected from the junior high school students, and then go to high school, until he was selected to enter the so-called university taught by them themselves.

Of course, there will be no more than twenty people who can go to the university they teach themselves, and in terms of intelligence alone, they will definitely surpass the previous twenty house-brass.

King Zhang Anguo smiled and said, "If we are just ordinary people, of course we have to think about things like this...... However, we are the top responsible, and we still have to think about the cultivation of successors.

Knowledge education is important, but the experience that a manager has is even more important...... Think about that guy in that world, because he doesn't have rich experience, how ridiculous his words and deeds are!

Our children can learn hard at any time, and only experience this thing and can't make up for it in a hurry......"

That's right, Queen Jing immediately understood what he meant, and agreed to let Zhang Zhansheng go to the army first, and after developing the habit of abiding by discipline and exercising his body and will, he could choose at will whether he went to industry, agriculture, commerce and administration.

As for his studies, with the two of them here, how can he find time in the future.

Now it seems that the decision to let him serve in the Navy was the right one.

This young man did well in the army and made a lot of friends...... King Zhang Anguo originally wanted to confer the title on him personally, but Guo Beyu insisted on rushing to go, and claimed that he was going to inspect the construction of the Manila Naval Base, so he would do it together.

King Zhang Anguo understood his thoughts, and he wanted to keep Zhang Zhansheng in the navy all the time, for fear that the army would rob him halfway.

Judging from Zhang Zhansheng's attitude towards the construction of ironclad warships, his ability to look at problems is far from enough...... Of course, he was just a child.

Time is a god, take your time.

King Zhang Anguo briefly said the situation of going to the Great Song Dynasty to mourn, as long as he expressed the sadness of the Federal Empire over the death of Jia Pingzhang and Jia Yidao.

If he encounters some diplomatic, commercial or even maybe military matters, he will completely leave them to the Foreign Minister Hou Dongfang, who accompanied him.

King Zhang Anguo finally said: "You have another important task...... You're going to recruit some special 'talent'. ”

Special talents?!

"Don't be surprised, my son...... They should all be 'eccentric' scholars in the eyes of others, and they may be a little temperamental, and it is not very useful for others to recruit them, and they don't even bother with your Uncle Yang personally hiring them......"

Second Lieutenant Zhang Zhansheng became interested: Who are they?

King Zhang Anguo smiled and introduced the situation to him.

The state examination, provincial examination and palace examination of the Great Song Dynasty government are almost equivalent to the high school entrance examination, college entrance examination and postgraduate entrance examination in that world.

In such an exam, the vast majority of candidates performed well, were able to stick to the proposition, offer advice to the Great Song Dynasty, carry forward the main theme, spread positive energy, and show strong patriotic feelings.

However, there are also a very small number of candidates who use the questions to play, borrow the past and the present, and publish a lot of negative energy things, without a bit of positive spirit.

For example, when someone was in the provincial test, he quoted a passage from Meng Chang, the king of the fallen Shu country after the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, "Eryu Erlu, the people are fat and the people are anointed." The people are easy to abuse, and the heavens are difficult to deceive."

Translated into the vernacular, this passage says, "The money received by your officials is the blood and sweat of the people." The people at the bottom are easy to bully, but you can't hide it from God."

When the examiner was reading the papers, he thought that there were major political problems in this college entrance examination essay, and the official was obviously eating the food of the Song Dynasty officials and serving the Zhao family, but this candidate was distorted by this candidate as eating the people's food and smashing the people's pot.

As a result, the examiners agreed that the candidate should be given zero marks for this essay.

Since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, there have been such things.

Previously, for the sake of peace, the Great Song Dynasty would conduct foreign trade with the Great Liao every year and send a large amount of property to the Great Liao.

However, some candidates have made irresponsible remarks and fingers on the country's trade and economic policies, and deliberately distorted the facts, describing the normal foreign trade of the Great Song Dynasty as a tribute to the Great Liao, which seriously damaged the image of the Great Song Dynasty as a great power and belittled the status of the Great Song Dynasty. Zero marks will be given to the essays of such candidates.

What's more, some candidates commented on the thin gold calligraphy of Song Huizong with the title of "On the Artistic Cultivation of the Leaders of the Great Song Dynasty".

Some examiners believe that this is a candidate's sycophant slap on the back of today's saints, and this kind of unhealthy atmosphere cannot be promoted, and zero points should be given to this kind of sycophant articles.

There are also examiners who believe that this is the candidate's use of the question to play, insinuating that Song Huizong is not doing his job, does not understand the way of governing the country, and is suspected of slandering the leaders of the Great Song Dynasty, so he should be given zero points.

There is even a candidate named Zhou Bangyan who had a relationship with Li Shishi in the entertainment industry.

Song Huizong met with Li Shishi, obviously the leader of the Great Song Dynasty visited and condoled the literary and art workers, but Zhou Bangyan was jealous, saying that the two of them had a tryst and cheating, and in the exam, he wrote a glamorous poem to expose the matter.

In this regard, the examiner believes that the candidate named Zhou Bangyan is taking the opportunity to vent his personal anger and has a negative impact on the glorious image of the leader of the Great Song Dynasty, and should be given zero points.

The entertainment industry, represented by artists such as Li Shishi, obviously belongs to the service industry, which is an industry with low input and high output, and it is very environmentally friendly and will not pollute the environment.

But some candidates slandered it as a sex industry, and suggested that many of the top brands were sponsored by officials.

This had a great negative impact on the image of the Great Song Dynasty officials, who distorted the honest and honest officials of the Great Song Dynasty as representatives of corruption and degeneration.

After discussion, the examiner decided that all college entrance examination essays with similar remarks will be scored zero.

Up to now, especially after the establishment of the Federal Empire, this situation has become more and more serious, and there are more and more zero-score essays in exams of all levels...... It really makes the examiners "tolerable, unbearable!" "That's it......

Some candidates were influenced by some bad ideas in the East, and even suggested that the Great Song Dynasty should officially release the "Great Song Charter", thinking that the content of only one sentence "ruling the world with the world's scholars and doctors" was too simple...... The most terrifying thing is that there is a vague idea that the official family of the Great Song Dynasty is also under the law!

Oh my God, this is crazy...... Resolutely give zero points!

Some college entrance examination essays also call for the reform of state institutions, with the prime minister being responsible for exercising executive power, the criminal department being separated from the three provinces and six ministries, such as being responsible for exercising judicial power, and in addition, the establishment of a parliament to exercise legislative power.

This kind of candidate does not understand the characteristics and national conditions of the Great Song Dynasty, and blindly imitates a certain country in the East, which obviously does not meet the criteria for the selection of talents of the Great Song Dynasty, so the composition of this kind of candidate can only be given zero points.

If this kind of candidate is allowed to become the pillar of the Great Song Dynasty, it will be impossible to avoid making subversive mistakes, and the hard-won stability and unity of the Great Song Dynasty will have to be messed up!

When some candidates write articles, they ask for strengthening the power of the prime minister and weakening the power of the monarch.

This is to establish a constitutional monarchy, turn the Great Song Dynasty into a hypocrite with no real power, empty the official family, and deny the leadership of the official family, and its intentions are very sinister.

Upholding the leadership of the official family is the basic principle of the Great Song Dynasty, and in the face of such basic principles, there must not be the slightest ambiguity. Denying the leadership of the official family is a major political stance issue, and candidates who are involved in this issue will definitely be given zero points, and at the same time, they must be handed over to the relevant departments for serious handling.

Some candidates quoted Mencius's "the people are precious, the society is secondary, and the monarch is light" when writing articles, believing that the people are noble and the monarch is light, the people are the most important, the country is second, and the monarch is light.

It's a reversal!

The country is tens of thousands of families, and only with the country can there be a home!!

Without a state, the people are nothing, so the state is obviously more important than the people; In the same way, without a monarch, the state loses its value of existence, so the monarch is more important than the state.

For this kind of essay that reverses right and wrong, the examiner unanimously agrees that it will be treated as a zero score.

In the article, some examinees brazenly pointed out that they should implement a civilian system in the armed forces like that federal empire, and there is a great tendency to advocate the nationalization of the armed forces.

The army obviously belongs to the individual officials, is the private armed forces of the official family, and is supported by the official family, but some candidates advocate that the army of the Great Song Dynasty, like the army of the federal empire, is supported by the taxes of citizens, so it is necessary to openly declare that the army belongs to the whole country like the federal empire...... For such sensitive essays on military-related topics, the examiner believes that it is best not to let the superiors know, and at the same time give zero points to the essays involving the subject.

The most annoying thing is that there are candidates who don't know where they heard a few words and talk about the royal money of the Great Song Dynasty!

In the article, they scribbled what the king of the Federal Empire, the Zhang family, although he also had his own Yindian group company, but he also abided by the laws and regulations, and also paid taxes according to the regulations...... However, the royal money bank of the Great Song Dynasty did not pay taxes, borrowed money from the treasury at will, and all expenditures and revenues were not transparent...... It was also suggested that the laws governing the corporations of the Federal Empire should be studied and that the citizens should be allowed to audit their accounts......

This is really nonsense, in the Song Dynasty money bank does not pay taxes, our officials don't know, how can some of you grass people know?!

There are even candidates who have pointed out the examination system and content of the Great Song Dynasty, saying that the exam questions are single, and what arithmetic, physics and chemistry, biology and so on should be added like the Federal Empire...... It's really unbelievable.

I have been taking this exam for hundreds of years, and I have selected countless outstanding talents, and I have not adhered to our great tradition and rashly learned the methods of other countries.

Besides, arithmetic, physics and chemistry, biology, etc., have all been read by this official, what is the use of them?!

For such candidates, not only must they be given zero marks, but they will also be banned from the exam for three years!

What those officials didn't know was that on an island separated by a small strait, King Zhang Anguo was also paying close attention to the chaos of the Great Song imperial examination.
