Han Gang smiled when he heard this, "Of course not. ”

Compared with Zhang Dan's slightly serious tone, Han Gang's tone was very relaxed.

How could Zhang Dian seriously think that he would make a mistake in the examination questions of the Imperial Examination and the Jinshi Imperial Examination, but he was complaining that he had made the difficulty of the questions too high.

"Talent ceremony, in front of the palace, how could Han Gang get the exam questions wrong? It's just a temple test. There will be a system of subjects. ”

"How long has it been preparing?"

Zhang Dian would not believe that such a topic could be thought of in a blink of an eye.

In terms of style, Han Gang has always wanted to find a more suitable assessment method than poetry, fu, theory and questioning. But that's just the style, as for the content, wasn't it just set by the Queen Mother? ”

Zhang Dian looked at the exam paper in his hand again, and only after a moment did he whisper: "...... Yukun has a heart. ”

Han Gang naturally prepared in advance, no matter which direction the Queen Mother preferred, Han Gang could have a similar topic.

If the Empress Dowager asks about the newly restored land in the northwest, Han Gang's question will never be a broad question of how to achieve long-term peace and stability in the newly restored land, or how to adhere to the effective control of the Han people in the case of a large foreign population, but more specific, such as taking Jiaozhou and Longyou as examples to explain the benefits and difficulties of encircling the upper and lower classes of the Tibetan people; Another example is to cite the example of Li Yuanhao persuading his father Li Deming to advocate Fanhua and oppose Sinicization, so that the candidates can explain the importance of controlling the Fan people economically and how to carry out economic control reasonably and effectively.

If the Empress Dowager was concerned about the financial plans of the imperial court, Han Gang prepared various topics such as sea trade, coinage, internal and external treasury, and even the controversial and buying.

If the Empress Dowager wants to understand the material transfer of the imperial court, especially the transportation of the Bianhe River and the Xianghan Dynasty, it is the area that Han Gang is most good at. Problems in the development of transportation, logistics, postal and other industries can bring endless ideas to Hangang.

The same is to give materials, the same is a three-question chain, and the difficulty will not be less than the current question.

……………………

From Wang Zhongzheng's point of view, he can take in all the expressions of Zaifu.

Wang Anshi, Han Jiang, Zhang Qi, Zhang Dan, Su Song and others had different reactions, but their surprise after seeing the title was the same.

The Zaifu who had nothing to do with themselves were so surprised, I am afraid that the quasi-jinshi who are working hard in the hall at the moment have the same chaotic mood as the Zhonggong students who participated in the Xining three-year Jinshi Hall examination.

At that time, although the court had been debating for half a year over whether the content of the Jinshi examination should be changed from poetry to scripture, Wang Anshi, who had recently gained the trust of the Son of Heaven and was preparing to change the law, to the courtiers who strongly opposed the change and wanted to follow the system of their ancestors, were all involved in this controversy.

However, not many of the tribute students who participated in the Xining three-year talent selection ceremony were worried that their exam questions would change from poetry to scripture. Because as long as he has a little knowledge, he knows that the Imperial Court will never change the content of the exam when there are only a few months left before the Ministry of Rites exam, even if Wang Anshi does not dare to do so after getting the support of the Son of Heaven. It is about the fate of thousands of tribute students from all walks of life in the world, who dares to offend the anger of the public like this?

But when it came to the temple examination, the situation changed. Even a group of examiners thought that this time the exam questions were still poems, fu, and theories, and unknowingly asked people to issue "Rite Collection Rhyme" to each candidate as a reference standard for poetry and rhyme. But after the announcement of the examination questions of the imperial system of the Son of Heaven, from the candidates to the examiners, they were all stunned - that was a question.

Wang Zhongzheng also knew that the idea of the first emperor was to want a group of new scholars who could be knowledgeable and insightful, and he also hoped that a rare palace test would allow him to understand the information of the outside world without going through the internal filtering of the imperial court.

It is difficult to say whether the Queen Mother had such thoughts. Anyway, in the first question, the smarter quasi-jinshi will definitely use the situation in their own township as an example to illustrate where the administration of the imperial court needs to be strengthened.

Even Wang Zhongzheng is also a knowledgeable Taoist, and the combination of literature and truth is the pharmacopoeia of policy, and those empty and substantial articles, no matter how good the rhetoric is, will be put on the back burner.

Fortunately, it was a palace test, and it was a ceremony test, and I don't know how many people would fall into the sand.

Looking at the new jinshi in the Jiying Palace, frowning and thinking hard, gritting their teeth, and even unconsciously biting the pen, Wang Zhongzheng suddenly thought that this ...... Does it count as a killer?

"Wang Zhongzheng."

The familiar female voice suddenly sounded beside him, and Wang Zhongzheng reflexively bent down: "The minister is here." ”

"Isn't it a little more difficult to get today's exam questions? I have asked many people that in the past temple examination, people began to submit papers within an hour. ”

If it is in the early stage of Taizong, the order before and after the above examination papers is handed in to evaluate the superiority, and the speed will be faster at that time. And candidates with quick thinking will not be lacking at any time.

"Probably because of one more question." Wang Zhongzheng replied.

"Before the emperor's palace exam, didn't there always be three questions?"

"It is difficult to ask questions, and although there are three questions about poetry in the past, they add up to the same as questions. This year, another question has been added to the policy question. ”

"Wang Zhongzheng, how do you think the exam questions are going this time?"

"Your Majesty, the minister has only been in the camp for a long time and knows a little about military affairs, but as for governance, the minister does not know. However, since it can stump the candidates, and Wang Pingzhang and Zhang Shumi have no objections, this topic must be very good. ”

“…… Reasonable. The Queen Mother nodded and waited patiently.

……………………

Time passed gradually, and finally someone began to hand in the papers.

Zong Ze's pen moved quickly, and there was no distraction. He had done the second question, and then he went back to the first one. There were more and more candidates around him who turned in their test papers, but none of them affected his concentration.

Han Gang is also patiently waiting for the result.

After taking office as the governor, Han Gang only focused on four people and things in addition to his daily official duties.

One is the yellow dress who participated in the system, the other is the crisis faced by the cotton industry, the first is the recommendation of the privy deputy envoy, and the last one is the examination questions on the palace examination.

Whether Huang Shang can pass the system is related to Han Gang's prestige in the court;

The crisis faced by the cotton industry is related to the economic foundation of Hangang and Qixue;

Han Gang didn't care about who was selected for the election of the privy deputy envoy, he only cared about whether this second election could be successfully held. This is an important step towards achieving his future goals;

As for the examination questions in the palace examination, they are also a key part of Han Gang's implementation of qi science.

Huang Shang failed in the examination of the Science Pavilion, and Han Gang sent Jian Zhoufu and other four examiners out of Beijing, no matter how good Han Gang's reasons were, in the eyes of many people, this is a manifestation of Han Gang's annoyance and anger, and he sympathizes with Jian Zhoufu. However, Han Gang has at least been able to influence the questions on the cabinet exam, and even some of the cabinet exams may be changed back to being presided over by the political affairs hall.

The cotton industry accounts for a smaller and smaller share of SF's annual profits, but the position of cotton cloth in SF is still crucial.

People only need to have fun when they are rich, they will not be hungry without sugar, and they can still live without Guan Long's special products, as for flying money, it is the need of rich people, and ordinary people will not have anything to do with it. But one cannot do without clothes. After wearing clothes made of cotton, it is difficult to go back to the days of linen and kudzu. Although silk fabrics have excellent touch and color, cotton products are far superior in terms of warmth and durability.

A key industry like this, with unlimited potential, must be controlled by Hangang. He also did not believe that the landlords in Jiangnan could have much initiative in industrialization, and that setting an example for them to pursue profits, or forcing them to follow suit, was the only feasible means. And before this example is really established, Han Gang has to drag his competitors back.

Two consecutive elections were successful. Moreover, the rules have been modified, and these two are four candidates, so the first three can be selected for the Queen Mother to choose. If there are only three candidates, the first two will come out for the Queen Mother to choose. When there are only two people running, they simply stop the court push until three people participate.

Of the above three things, two succeeded, one succeeded half, and the rest depends on the results of this temple test.

……………………

As the last candidate handed in the paper, the examiners immediately began to mark the paper.

When the number of examination papers is limited to more than 400 copies, and the number of examiners is not less than that of the Ministry of Etiquette, the speed of evaluation is fast.

It didn't take much time to come out.

The 100-point system is an excellent method of judging papers, although it is a headache for the examiners when grading, but the Queen Mother sent two eunuchs who are good at calculation to help, and there is no problem immediately.

And when there are specific scores on the test paper, it is easier and more convincing to evaluate the ranking than before.

The first place is not Zhang Tame, the second, third, fourth, and all the way to the twenty-ninth are not him, he is only thirty - Zhang Tao did not score a point in the second question, and the answer to the first question did not show that he was beyond the level of his peers, which shattered his dream of even winning the third yuan.

Zhang Tao is actually unlucky. If the first emperor died two months late, in the period of forgiveness, the queen mother must mourn in the palace, and it is impossible to come out to preside over the palace examination, at that time, the results of the provincial examination can only be regarded as the final result.

Among the candidates in the audience, there was only one third class in the second question, and it was precisely because of the extra points that he was ranked first by the examiners after the examiners.

The Zaisuke are not examiners, but they also need to look at this exam paper.

Wang Anshi looked at it for a while, put it down, and shook his head silently.

And Zhang Dian glanced at it a few times and threw it down, "Wishful thinking, only into the fifth class." ”

"Han participates in politics?"

Han Gang replied: "It's far worse than Zhao Kuo and Ma Tan." ”

"Worse than Zhao Kuo and Ma Yan?" The Queen Mother was surprised.

"Your Majesty. Zhao Kuo is talented, Ma Jian is knowledgeable, if he is given more than ten years of experience, he may not be able to become a famous general, but because he has no experience, he will still be laughed at for a thousand years. can let them talk about the military, Ma Fujun can't win, and Zhuge Liang also agrees. Nowadays, the palace's questions and arguments are just talk on paper, and they are empty of words. If you can't even do these things well, of course you are far inferior to Zhao Kuo and Ma Yan. ”

Zhang Qi was a little kind, and coughed lightly: "Just look at the text, you can still get a little bit with the fourth class." ”

No matter how the examiners evaluate it, and no matter what the Zaisukes say, the final result will still depend on the queen.

The ministers waited quietly, only to hear the Queen Mother whisper: "I have heard that there is a Zong Ze ......"
