Chapter Seventy-One: Reading with the Palace
But then Shen Ze thought of one of these questions, even if he went to be a companion of this palace, he still wanted to make a name for himself. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info but as far as the scientific examination regulations of the Ming Dynasty are concerned, I'm afraid it's not easy to do!
Compared with the scientific examination of the Ming Dynasty and the Great Song Dynasty, the treatment has been greatly improved, at least for ordinary readers, it is indeed like this.
During the Great Song Dynasty, not only did Tongsheng and Xiucai have no fame, but even lifting people was a one-time consumption title. In the Great Song Dynasty, even if a student wins the examination in this examination, as long as he does not pass the Jinshi examination in the end, he has to retake the examination in the next subject.
In short, in the Great Song Dynasty, if a student fails to pass the Jinshi exam, he is basically still a poor student and has no status at all. This is actually very disadvantageous for poor scholars, because it is very likely that you will study hard for decades, and in the end it will be just a waste, and in the end you can only spend your whole life, after all, Jinshi is not so easy to take the exam.
And Daming has the fame of children, talents, and people, and gives them corresponding privileges, which can ensure that those ordinary students can obtain a certain status and identity only by achieving a little stage of fame, so that they will not be too difficult in life, so that they can work with peace of mind.
However, compared with the scientific examination of the Great Song Dynasty, the scientific examination system of the Ming Dynasty also has shortcomings for some people. That is, the scientific examinations of the Ming Dynasty are all "one test for life", there is no chance to retake the exam, and the Great Song Dynasty does not have the saying of "locked hall test", which is not as good as the scientific examination system of the Great Song Dynasty for those who are not satisfied with Xiaocheng in the Ming Dynasty.
In the Great Song Science Examination, if you feel that you are not satisfied with the ranking after passing the Jinshi examination, you can give up this ranking and the title of Jinshi, and retake the next subject.
This system is also very attractive to students who are full of talent but do not play well. After all, the ranking of the first and third ranks is still very different for future careers. Of course, such people are absolutely confident in their own level.
There are not many people who are willing to give up the status of Jinshi who finally got it, but it is not absent in the history of the Great Song Dynasty scientific examination. One of the main generals when Wang Anshi changed the law, Zhang Dan, once did it.
In the second year of Jiayou, Zhang Dian took the solution to enter Beijing to participate in the scientific examination, passed the provincial examination and the palace examination, and finally ranked eighteenth in the second high school. It is said that this ranking is definitely not low, you must know that the dragon and tiger list in the second year of Jiayou is known as the most shining list in the history of millennium scientific research.
But just as the list was released, Zhang Dian saw that his nephew Zhang Hengming was in front of him, and he was also the top student in high school. The arrogant Zhang Dian was ashamed of it, so he refused to accept the identity of the second-class jinshi, abandoned the identity of the second-class jinshi, and went home to study. I'm ready to fight again. It wasn't until the fourth year of Jiayou that Zhang took the exam again, this time in fifth place.
Of course, there are not many Jinshi who dare to give up their status as Jinshi like Zhang Dian and go back to retake the exam. However, in this regard, the Great Song Imperial Examination is still better than the "one examination for life" system of the Great Ming Imperial Examination, after all, it gives more opportunities to those students who do have strength but do not perform well because of a bad performance.
In the scientific examination system of the Great Song Dynasty, there is another difference from the Ming Dynasty, that is, if some low-level officials or officials who are not from the right path are not satisfied with the current situation, they can change their situation by participating in the "lock hall test" and obtaining the status of Jinshi.
In the scientific examination system of the Ming Dynasty, there is no such thing as "locking the hall test". In Daming, as long as you have to be granted the official position of Pinliu, you will no longer have the opportunity to participate in the scientific examination.
Of course, if you are an official or a variety of economic officials who are not yet in the stream, such as the classics and historians, or various economic officials, you still have the opportunity to participate in the scientific examination.
However, it is obvious that this royal palace companion, although it is only from the ninth grade, is also an official position that has also entered the product stream.
Therefore, according to the regulations of the Daming scientific examination, it is obvious that if Shen Ze is the companion of this palace, he will not be able to participate in the township examination!
Thinking of this, Shen Ze couldn't help but say with a bitter face: "Students still want to take the test first, and then try to make a name for themselves!" ”
Governor Zhang looked at Shen Ze and persuaded eloquently: "Wen Hao, if you can pass the scientific examination and take the right path to enter the office, it is the best." But this thing is not easy, many people have been poor all their lives, and it is difficult to get a lift. Although you are gifted, you are not used for the right way to study. You're afraid of being a ...... Alas, let's just say it directly, after reading your two articles on the scriptures, I think that the possibility of you winning in the autumn is pitiful, and if you can be a talent, it can be regarded as a ......."
Governor Zhang didn't say anything later, obviously taking care of Shen Ze's face. Obviously, he felt that with Shen Ze's level, if he could be a talent, he would be lucky.
The two eight-strand essays that Governor Zhang said were when the county government talked about the scientific examination, Governor Zhang wanted to see Shen Ze's level, and specially gave him a question and asked him to do it. Of course, at that time, Shen Ze couldn't do any eight-strand essays, and those two articles were made by him Yang Feng as a gunman, it seems that Yang Fan's level is not much higher, no wonder he can't even pass the scientific exam.
Of course, Shen Ze's actual level is not as good as Yang Feng! If Shen Ze didn't know the exam questions of this Qiuqiu, what Governor Zhang said was actually very reasonable.
But now that Shen Ze knows the exam questions, this matter has to be said separately!
Seeing that Shen Ze bowed his head and was silent, Governor Zhang continued to persuade: "Actually, Wenxuan, you may not have a good future if you go to this palace to accompany you. Although my Ming Dynasty is very strict with the vassal king, and the vassal king is not allowed to interfere in politics, but our Qingzhou prince is different, His Royal Highness King Heng is the brother of today's saint, and he has a good relationship with today's saint! When the saint had not ascended the throne today, he was taken care of by His Royal Highness King Heng's mother, Concubine De, and after ascending the throne, he was also quite generous to His Royal Highness King Heng. If you are appreciated by the prince, and the prince recommends you to the saint, maybe you will be able to be reused.
Besides, if you really want to take part in this year's autumn water test, it's hard to say. You go to this palace to accompany you first, and you are also preparing for this township test. When you finish the township exam, if you win, you will ask the prince to resign, the prince is easy-going, and he should not embarrass you! If you don't win, then you can ask the prince to apply for the official position of this palace companion. That's all this is said in this house, Wenxuan, where do you go, make your own decisions! ”
Well, that's a double-insurance solution.
At first, Shen Ze felt that Governor Zhang had to let him be the companion of this palace, he was afraid that it was because he agreed to King Heng for his own decision, if he didn't go, he wouldn't be able to explain to King Heng, so he tried his best to persuade himself to go. But after listening to Governor Zhang's words, I also know that Governor Zhang's words are also heartfelt, and he really plans for himself! He was afraid that he saw that he was hopeless in the scientific examination, so he persuaded him.
To be honest, Shen Ze really didn't think about being a big official, if he really wanted to be a companion from the palace of the ninth grade, it would be good to think about it. As long as he has a good relationship with King Heng's mansion, his wish to be a safe and stable rich man in Qingzhou will definitely be realized.
Thinking of this, Shen Ze said to Governor Zhang very sincerely: "Thank you, my lord, I am willing to be the companion of this prince." Students have benefited a lot from being around adults recently, please be honored by them! Shen Ze said with a deep sigh.
Governor Zhang sat upright and calmly accepted Shen Ze's gesture, and waited until Shen Ze got up before he said slowly: "You are talented and intelligent, but you like to be clever and risky in doing things, this is your strength, but sometimes it can also become your fatal shortcoming!" In the future, remember to think twice before doing anything, and remember to be patient without haste! ”
"Students remember the teachings of adults!"

PS: The Dragon and Tiger List in the second year of Jiayou is known as the most shining list in the history of the millennium scientific expedition, and it is by no means a waste of fame.
This list has produced countless people, Su Shi, Su Zhe, Cheng Hao, Cheng Yi, Zeng Gong, Zeng Bu, Lu Huiqing, Zhang Heng, Zhang Zai, Wang Shao, etc., all of them are famous figures, and they have all left their own strong imprints in the annals of the Great Song Dynasty.
Only those who later ranked among the eight families of the Tang and Song dynasties, there were Su Shi, Su Zhe, and Zeng Gong, that is to say, half of the six Song families in the eight families of the Tang and Song dynasties were from the dragon and tiger list of the second year of Jiayou, which is not bad.
