Chapter 43: The Three-Day Exam

"All the exam papers are actually printed? The point is, there is actually pinyin! Jiang Wan looked at the exam paper in his hand, there was still the smell of ink on the test paper, and it was obvious that it had just been printed. It is rare that every word is marked with pinyin.

"Is this taking care of those who are not yet literate? It's just that it's taken care of like this, isn't it too much?! Yi was amazed. He was originally from Shanyang, Yanzhou, and was attached to Liu Biao in the early years. Liu Biao stepped down, and he also hung up his seal, and now he belongs to the opposition.

I heard that Li Ming was going to hold a scientific examination here, and I was also curious to come and take a look, but I didn't expect that on the first day of the exam, I was 'amazed' by the content of the exam paper in front of me. Fortunately, he also knew not to make noise, and the process of checking the exam papers was just a few muttering words.

Iraq is a foreigner and an insider, and the most proficient in law is actually law. Li Ming's governing philosophy made him a little moved.

"Can the people make it impossible to know it? To punctuate and explain what this means? It is said that this should be regarded as a score test, but Li Ming will really give us a score question to test? Xu Shu carefully tasted this question, mainly tasting Li Ming as a person, in his opinion, Li Ming did not seem to agree with the sentence 'the people can make it, but not the people'.

Smart people tend to complicate things, and more than 4,700 out of 5,000 people have begun to write, but more than 300 people have not started to write, but have looked at the question very solemnly.

In the end, Yi nationality took the lead in writing, and after ten minutes, Xu Shu, Jiang Wan and Pan Jun arrived, and everyone also started writing one after another......

The people can, let it be. No, let it be known. Li Ming, you're going to classify it like this, right? Yi took the lead in marking the punctuation marks, and muttered in a low voice: "Over the years, you have been opening up the wisdom of the people, advocating education, and advocating the rule of law and system, the only explanation can only be this!" ”

Now that the sentence has been broken, it naturally becomes much easier to explain, and it will not be long before everyone has finished writing the first question.

One-third of this test paper is from the scriptures, and only two books, the Analects and Mencius, are produced; After that, there are five arithmetic problems, all of which are related to the revenue and expenditure of local government affairs, which makes people can't help but shine. If the officials can't even figure out the local money and food, then the local officials are indeed very unqualified.

After that, there is agriculture, which combines geography and gives an example of the geomorphological and geographical situation of a certain place in Jiaozhou, which tests the candidates' understanding of agriculture and the degree of utilization. After that, there are questions on the handling of people's livelihood, economy and ethnic minority issues.

"I see, if you want to become an official, you must first have the ability to be an official...... Candidates with such excellent results can be said to be fully capable of serving as local officials. Meng Jian nodded, wrote down the content of the exam, and after returning to Chang'an, he would naturally report to the imperial court first.

"Dangdang, Dangdang......" The winding bell rang, and many candidates were still struggling to write, but at this moment they immediately stopped the brush in their hands.

The sergeant who was the invigilator immediately looked at all the candidates, and they received the news that the bell rang and stopped writing within 60 breaths, which was not considered a foul, and those who did not stop writing after 60 breaths would be disqualified from the exam. There is nothing unfair about it, and a guy who doesn't even understand the rules is not worth hiring at all.

There are always some unlucky children, who type too much draft and find that they are not written in the answer sheet when the exam is about to end, and they immediately copy in a panic until the bell rings, and they still refuse to give up.

"No. 2333, if you don't stop writing after the specified time, the exam results will be cancelled!" The invigilator shouted, and similar voices were heard throughout the examination room, and at the same time, the candidates were also invited out of the cubicle and taken out of the examination room.

"32 voices, 32 candidates disqualified from the exam!!" Those who have a good ear quickly counted the number of candidates who were disqualified, but they did not expect that at the end of the first day of the exam, 32 people lost their qualifications for the exam.

After the rolls, it's time for dinner. Li Ming treats the candidates really well, and the lunch is nutritious. There is fish and meat to ensure the nutrition of the students. However, some candidates really can't eat, just because the exam room they arranged is not far from the toilet, and the smell swept in, and they have no appetite for anything, and the key is to spend two days under such edification.

No one knew that this kind of examination room near the toilet was later called a stinky number. Almost no one stands out for the students who take the exam here, and it is regarded as the most unlucky place in the exam room. Candidates often pray to the gods and worship the Buddha before the exam, hoping not to be assigned to this ghost place.

In addition, there is a quilt to go down when you sleep at night, and there is special hot water to wash up. It's obviously impossible to take a bath, but it's a blessing to be able to clean up your body a little. The seats in the exam room are single beds, and it is very comfortable to sleep except for the disadvantage that there is no way to close the exam room...... Except for those on the stinky side.

The next day, the candidates had to face the strategy, and after the exam paper was in hand, Zhang Song opened the exam paper. The content of the exam is two questions, which can be divided into two parts: 'Wen Tao' and 'Wu Liu'.

The so-called Wen Tao is mainly a means of governance, and the exam questions mark a county town where Han and barbarians live together, explaining the proportion of Han and barbarians, and at the same time the surrounding environment is marked, asking if the candidate is here as an examiner, how to develop this county.

The so-called Wu Strategy is also based on this county seat, saying that there are five different barbarian tribes around, and they will go down the mountain from time to time to loot the county seat. Asked how they would keep the peace of the county if they were in charge of the county.

"I see, the four counties of Jingnan and Jiaozhou do lack enough officials, even Fujian County and Luling County...... It seems that if you pass the examination and are awarded an official title, it is very likely that you will go to these places and serve as an official. Jiang Wan nodded, the description of the environment of this county is similar to that of many counties in Wuling County, and he doesn't feel a sense of intimacy.

Once the draft is typed, it will be officially written. Li Ming didn't ask for how much handwriting he needed, but everyone knew that the answer sheet with good handwriting would definitely be favored by the examiners, at least the impression score would increase.

On the third day, the candidates who had worked hard for two days had already consumed a lot of energy, but fortunately, their bodies were still healthy. However, for most candidates, they just want to finish this exam quickly.

"I knew that Li Ming was really cunning!" Meng Jian opened the test paper and immediately sneered when he saw the question.

The third day of the exam is mainly to evaluate the current affairs and politics, so that candidates can express their opinions according to the current situation in China. Yes, that's what Li Ming said at the time. However, it was written on the test paper: Now the Duke of Chu and the Duke of Wei have raised troops on the side of the Qing monarch, wanting to attack Guanzhong to clear the traitors and support the Han Dynasty. Should this be done or not, according to what you can see, what should Chu Gong do next?

"Directly let the Duke of Chu and the Duke of Wei surrender to the imperial court, then the world will be truly peaceful!" Meng Jian couldn't help sneering, but this exam question just gave many guys a chance to pick up their stinky feet. This question is also considered to be level, who can be used by Chu Gong and who can't, at a glance. The key is that with this examination paper, it is undoubtedly equivalent to handing over a letter of submission......

You must believe that candidates who dare to say that they are not right, or who are responsible for Li Ming, will definitely not get a good ranking. But if you dare to write that the monarch's side is just, and at the same time specifically tell Li Ming how to do it, he will undoubtedly get on the thief ship. In the future, if the imperial court recovers the rivers and mountains and sees this test paper, then even if this candidate defects to the imperial court, this life will be over.

So, how should he answer this question? Meng Jian looked at this test paper with great interest!
