[The second update that is late, I'm sorry for all book friends. Today is the next two shifts. 】

'The heavenly prison is not far away, and the people's hearts can be known' is the story of Renzong.

Its author, Lin Xi, used to be the Xie Yuan of the Kaifeng Prefecture Examination, the Provincial Yuan of the Ministry of Rites Examination, and during the palace examination, a "Civil Supervisor Fu" was written far better than the same column, so it was listed as the first by the examiners.

But two of the sentences 'Heavenly Prison is not far away, and the people's hearts can be known' were taboo, and Renzong didn't like it when he saw it, and Lin Xi lost the glory of the champion and Lianzhong Sanyuan because of the two sentences. And Zhang Heng of the same department, that is, the lucky one who succeeded Lin Xi to become the champion of the department, his solution is very flattering to Lu 'Yun Yuan Sheng, Tianlin Zhaomin', far more favored by Renzong than Lin Xi.

Similarly, the 'son and friend' who made Wang Anshi lose the champion is even more famous. This public case always reminds the candidates of the palace examination that they must pay attention to the choice of words and sentences in the article.

But this time, there are actually a lot of taboos in Zong Ze's questioning, and the Queen Mother and Zai Fu have not escaped, and even the situation of the party fighting for inclusion is about to be discussed. The Queen Mother didn't understand the content of the article at all, otherwise she would never have chosen Zong Ze.

"It's just that the level of the champion can be questioned, but the champion is the champion." Han Gang said, "Whether it's jealousy or contempt, it can't change Zong Ze to become the first Jinshi of the Nonxu Branch." ”

Zong Ze has traveled for a long time, but he only travels, and although his knowledge is not bad, he is also narrow-minded. The answer to the question of the argument cannot be regarded as too good, and the discussion in the question, in addition to the uprightness is praised, is still a little superficial after all. But since the Queen Mother named him as the champion, the champion is him.

The reason why the palace examination was established was precisely to allow the emperor to show his favor to Jinshi, so as to sever the chain of relationship between the teacher and the protégé in the past, so that the new Jinshi would miss the Son of Heaven instead of the examiner. This is the power of the Queen Mother, who listens to the government on behalf of the Son of Heaven, and there is no reason for a courtier to stop it.

"Huang Shang understands." Huang Shang's tone was heavy.

The reason why the Queen Mother ordered Zong Ze was not because of the content of Zong Ze's exam papers, nor how broad-minded the Queen Mother was, the Queen Mother just remembered the battle situation comments that Zong Ze wrote at the beginning. Although it is just a family theory, since it has been written down by the Queen Mother, a champion is destined [Note 1]. Since he is optimistic about Zong Ze, even if he learns the true meaning of Zong Ze's article afterwards, he will only feel that he has obtained a revital.

It's all fate.

Huang Shang knew that Han Gang didn't like such a statement, but he couldn't help but think about it like this. Compared with Zong Ze's luck, his luck is so much worse.

The benefactor tried his best to lay the groundwork, but he couldn't take it over, this is luck.

If you just want to be a mediocre official, in fact, it is enough now, with the status of a jinshi, and has been promoted to a court official, as well as experience in military and political affairs, the worst in this life can be retired in the state and county.

"But......" He peeked at Han Gang, his face, which originally looked out of place in a group of old Dongfu, was even younger under the lamp, but the shadow left on his face by the lamp made people feel a deep majesty, 'How willing is this.' ’

has been by Han Gang's side for a long time, and there is always a kind of strength to forge ahead, which makes people unwilling to be mediocre. Seeing how many achievements that were originally thought impossible to accomplish are achieved one after another with their own assistance, how can people be willing to continue to be mediocre from now on?

Putting aside his thoughts, Huang Sheng smiled at Han Gang and said: "But this time in the palace test, although Zong Rulin won the champion, he has gained more from Qi learning, and in the future, there will be one more class in the Guozi Prison." ”

"That the people may not be brought to disaster." Han Gang said, "Isn't it possible to send a big flood to use the Analects to repair the embankment?" ”

In the palace test of this subject, the real winner is indeed Qi Xue, and it is Han Gang himself.

Since Jinshi became the head of all subjects, the subject that determines the fate of Jinshi has become the most important weather vane in Shilin.

Today, Han Gang insisted on putting the argument into the temple to test, who would dare to give up the study of the genre of argumentation in the future? As for Qi science, which is closely related to Shen Lun, the writings in it are, of course, the focus of research.

If the argument is only limited to the palace examination, then the candidates who don't care about the ranking can still put it aside and don't care. But Han Gang is now a governor of political affairs, no matter who looks at it, as long as he stands in Han Gang's position, how can he not try his best to put the argument into the subject of the Ministry of Rites exam? And with Han Gang's age, how long can Wang Anshi stop him?

And judging from the content of the assessment, how can Wang Anshi object?

'Chinese words do not make up for the treatment', this Wang Anshi changed the reason for the tribute and the law, and he has a stomach full of scriptures and righteousness, but he can't use it in practice, how to 'make up for the treatment'?

"Politics is exactly right. Whether it is poetry or scripture, the most important thing for an official to enter the court is to govern affairs. Huang Shang said, "Even if Wang Pingzhang comes, it can't be said that there is no need to test the management skills of the tribute students." Otherwise, there is no need to add that 'judgment'. ”

The rules handed down since the Tang Dynasty, the new science and technology jinshi Shi Shi brown, to pass the four levels of the body, words and books. Physiognomy, conversation, calligraphy, and judgment.

In particular, the criterion for the last one is 'to know things, to be proficient in the law, to distinguish between right and wrong, and to be hidden'. Although there are very few officials who can do these four sentences, there is only one in a hundred, but today, when appearance and conversation are no longer an obstacle, people can give enough sympathy and tolerance to stuttering or ugly officials, but no one can say that officials do not need to have the ability to do things.

The purpose of this new style of argument is precisely to test whether candidates have the most basic understanding of government affairs. Through the review and analysis of the known information, grasp the problem, and give a feasible solution, and then discuss the solution at the end. The vision and common sense of officials can be considered.

"But what are you going to do next? But ...... the next subject of the Ministry of Rites exam? Huang Shang asked again.

"I'm not in such a hurry." Han Gang smiled easily, time was on his side, "It's not too late to talk about it later, let Quanxu suffer a little first." However, for the next subject of the Ministry of Rites exam, you can try the 100-point system. In this way, mistakes in the meaning of the scriptures can also be made up for by policy theories, so as not to lose meritocracy. ”

Argumentation is only one of the key points, and promotion is the more important one.

In the past, when there was also poetry and fuxue, in addition to the fuwen being the focus, both poetry and essays could be put away. And Han Gang converted the score of the palace examination into 100 points, although Shen Lun only accounted for 30% of it, no one dared to ignore it, and even only 10 points did not dare to ignore it - which one could not be seen, such a scoring method, one point in the exam would be the key.

After having a score, it is not necessary to have one or the other, and it is okay to have one question at the same time. The part of the scriptures can be counted in the total score. Those Gongsheng, who were deposed because they made too many mistakes, also had a chance to reverse.

"This can also insert more exam questions, needless to say, the argument can also be written, the poetry can also be used, only accounting for a tenth, and still focusing on the scriptures and meanings, who can say that it is not?"

has been cooperating with Han Gang for a long time, and Huang Shang can easily see through Han Gang's thoughts.

Han Gang smiled and said nothing, maybe in a few more subjects, the exam papers of the Ministry of Rites will be filled with all kinds of exam questions.

Two hours of water release, three hours of water intake, and the same time as the water in and out, how much time can the pool be emptied, even if such an exam question only accounts for three or five points in the whole volume, who dares to give up?

……………………

"Three hours."

Han Zhong finished his topic and hurriedly called it to his father. It's still a little slower than his brother and sister, though.

The arithmetic questions for his son and daughter are more difficult than the ones that Han Gang plans to give to future tribute students. It's not a matter of hours, but how much time it takes to put it in half, or in a third, or in a fifth. This is more of a calculation, and it is also a little more difficult.

The answer was correct, but Han Gang still carefully looked at his calculation steps before he nodded.

When Han Gang was a student, he felt that it was troublesome to write down the calculation steps step by step, and some questions could be directly mentally calculated and the answers could be calculated, but when he began to teach his disciples, although the answers were important, it was important to confirm that the calculation method was the most important.

"Alright. Go back."

The eldest is about to turn 10 years old, and he can no longer live in the backyard, he has to be treated as an adult. Wang Yi and Yan Suxin are planning to prepare a separate courtyard for him in the outer courtyard, as well as the layout and preparation of the residence, and more importantly, the companionship who follows him, so as not to learn badly.

Such a change can also be as late as the 14th Five-Year Plan. But early independent adults,

A thousand years later, at Han Zhong's age, there are also many students who go out to study, and there is not much to worry about at all.

"When you are fourteen, you will go to Hengqu Academy."

Jin Niang raised her head and asked, "Brother doesn't go to the Guozijian?" ”

Han Gang smiled and touched his daughter's little head: "How can Guozijian compare with Hengqu Academy, what can you learn from there?" ”

"If you can enter the country, you can be a jinshi. Didn't my brother get into the Jinshi? Jin Niang said seriously like a little adult.

"By the time your brother is going to take the Jinshi exam, the exam questions have already changed." Wang Yi smiled, "Official, isn't it?" ”

"Of course. You can get used to it a little earlier when you go to Hengqu Academy. ”

The boss is going to participate in Jinshike, and it is still more than ten years. By the time he and the second child in the family went to take the Jinshi exam, the questions of the Jinshi exam had indeed changed a long time ago. And it is an unrecognizable change, and it is by no means what people think of it now.

The 100-point system is hidden behind the argument, and the changes to the test subjects are actually greater.

The imperial examination has a history of hundreds of years, whether it is from the poetry to the Jingyi Jinshi Branch, or Xiucai, Ming Jing, Ming Law, Ming Zi, Ming Ce, Daoju and other subjects that gradually disappear or are not important, are the same way of grading, and the 100-point system can change all subjects, can be more elaborate arrangement of examination questions, and is also suitable for inserting more test questions.

Maybe by this time, Wang Anshi and Zhang Dian should have figured it out, but can they still stop it?

Even old bottles have to be filled with new wine, and old songs have to sing new tunes.

It was from here that the changes to the imperial examinations began.

Note 1: In real history, Yuanfeng's five-year champion Huang Shang was also ranked fifth at the beginning, because Shenzong Zhao Ji remembered his past articles, so 'to roll call, so that the search for the clothes volume, must be found in a moment, Shenzong said: This is the champion also. ’
