Chapter 290: Catching a son-in-law under the list
The content of Moyi is not much, there are only ten, and those who can pass six will enter the next round of exams.
Three hours later, the forbidden army began to be responsible for submitting the answer sheets, but did not seal the name, but only registered them in order, sorted them into categories, collected them together, and handed them over to the chief examiner.
After all, this time it is only an examination, and it is not an informal imperial examination, so naturally it does not need to be so strict.
After that, all the candidates dispersed, ready to recharge their energy and wait for news.
It takes three days to read 100,000 exam papers, even the simplest ones, to review them one by one to see if there are any omissions......
This is because Su Zimo arranged for the Confucian students in the Guozi Prison, as well as the officials below the sixth grade, to work tirelessly day and night to correct and review, so as to achieve this.
After the Moyi screening was over, there were less than 10,000 of the 100,000 candidates left!
Among them, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Wei Zheng and others, whom Su Zimo specially cared for, were successfully selected, and there were also some children of the family who did not learn and did not know how to be selected.
Even so, Su Zimo had no intention of ordering the names of these people to be re-added to the list.
Although he had already prepared thirty places for the children of those families in this examination, what qualifications did those who couldn't even pass the simplest Moyi have?
"This second round is naturally to strictly screen ......"
Looking at the remaining more than 9,000 names, Su Zimo also secretly made up his mind.
The first examination is simple, but it is of great significance.
After all, countless people are staring at this examination, if they can't create some sensational effects, then it will be even more difficult to create such a big influence in the second and third examinations.
Therefore, in addition to the originally planned strategy, Su Zimo also added several "special" topics.
That's arithmetic!
As a modern person, Su Zimo is also well aware of the role of mathematics.
To put it bluntly, mathematics is the king of science, the foundation of all technology, and the core of the wisdom of all civilizations!
However, in feudal society, mathematics, or arithmetic, was not valued by Confucianism.
Because of this, all dynasties have always been in a demeaning attitude towards merchants and resolutely opposed commercialization.
Isn't it because businessmen are highly mobile and professional that they can't manage?
If it cannot be managed, it will simply be abolished, and if it cannot be abolished, it must be devalued.
The elite of society does not know arithmetic, or is not good at arithmetic, so they will naturally hate and attack business......
Because people can't manage, even if you tell him, he won't understand anything.
In modern society, countless people have studied why China cannot produce capitalism, and there are of course many reasons. But numbers, and most importantly, the logical system that numbers represent, and the skill system that follows them, is fatal!
Taking advantage of the opportunity of this examination, Su Zimo planned to let these Confucian children pay attention to their arithmetic again, even if it was just a promotion level, it was much better than ignoring arithmetic.
In this way, it is equivalent to planting a seed of attaching importance to arithmetic in the hearts of these people.
As for whether it can blossom and bear fruit smoothly, it depends on how it will develop in the future.
And the questions in this examination, in addition to a few famous ancient arithmetic works such as "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" and "Zhou Ji Sutra of Arithmetic", some of them are derived from the sixth-grade math problems that the people of the Celestial Empire are most afraid of.
Of course...... It is a modified version.
Rao is like this, Su Zimo estimates that after this screening, there are probably only about 1,000 candidates who can successfully enter the next round.
In addition, in this way, it is also convenient to operate in the dark, and prevent the regret that some people who neglect to study arithmetic, but in history, are also famous and able ministers are excluded.
Three days later, this "topic" carefully designed by Su Zimo finally came out.
It also made more than 9,000 candidates look at each other.
According to the first round of exams, they thought that the next questions were still related to the Four Books and the Five Classics......
However, the moment they saw the title, many people couldn't stop wailing in their hearts.
What's more, he lost his temper in public, cried bitterly, and was politely "invited" out of the examination room by the guards on the side.
Fortunately, most people's mentality is quite normal, although they are still frowning at the question, they are still stubborn and begin to answer this special exam paper.
Another three hours passed, accompanied by a "stop writing".
Countless candidates woke up like a dream, put down the answer sheet in their hands in an orderly manner, and walked out of the examination room in turn.
In the first round before, there were also people who were overdue, but they were all disqualified from the examination, and the answer sheets were all invalid.
With this experience, these candidates naturally dare not follow suit.
After walking out of the examination room, the candidates naturally had different faces, some were happy and some were lost, and they were in groups of three or five to discuss and discuss with each other.
"Brother Zhang, have you ever made the fourth question?"
"I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed, my little brother is stupid, and he only solved the third question, and as for the remaining questions, he is at a loss."
"Hey, I don't know what to think about today.,I actually gave this kind of arithmetic problem.,It seems that if you have time in the future.,You still need to study it well.。
"It's the pole, it's the pole."
…………
Three days later, it happened to be the day of the second round of examinations.
Countless candidates gathered in front of the Guozijian, facing the huge red list, constantly patrolling, hoping to see their names from it.
Occasionally, there is an occasional "Oh, I'm in!" The sound sounded in the crowd, which would attract the attention of many people around, which naturally included a compliment, as well as envy and jealous eyes.
Of course, more of them are disgraced.
The number of finalists in this round is really beyond Su Zimo's expectations.
In fact, for the ten arithmetic problems he came out, the vast majority of people only made the first two, a few were able to solve the third problem, and only one person made the fifth problem......
As for the last five questions, the sixth-grade math problems of the Celestial Empire Elementary School undoubtedly made these ancient elites all fail.
Therefore, Su Zimo simply waved his hand and counted the more than 80 people who solved the first three questions, as well as more than a dozen children of the gate valve family who solved the first two questions, as the 100 people who were shortlisted for the third round.
As for the third round, he planned to directly investigate the strategy of these hundred people in the Jinluan Palace.
First, it is to see what the level of those famous advisers in history is, and secondly, it is also to prevent any confusion among them.
After all, this first examination is only a grassroots creation, and there are still many rules that have not been perfected, and it is inevitable that some people will take advantage of loopholes.
If this kind of thing is really found, it will naturally be a bloody storm.
In addition, on the day of the release of the list, something happened that made Su Zimo laugh.
That's ...... Rob son-in-law!
It turned out that these candidates who were shortlisted for the third round, except for some of them were children of the family, the vast majority of them were born in poor families.
But anyone with a discerning eye can see that since these children of poor families have passed the examination, although they will not be able to rise to prominence and become the center in the future, they can at least be an important member of one party.
There is a way that the icing on the cake is better than sending charcoal in the snow.
Therefore, many family members began to play with the idea of these people, although because of the prestige of Su Zimo, the Emperor of the Great Sui, they did not dare to recruit these poor children, but they robbed and cheated, and the girls to be married in the family were promised to these poor children.
In this way, he did not violate the taboo of His Majesty the Emperor, but also found a right-hand man for his family...... It's a lot of money.
Even Su Zimo was stunned when he heard the news.
"This ...... Isn't this the Song Dynasty's list of catching sons-in-law? ”
The so-called son-in-law under the list.
In the Song Dynasty, when the imperial examination system was highly complete, the examination was the main way for the imperial court to select officials.
And the current situation can be called some kind of coincidence.
"Your Majesty, do you need to send someone to stop this?"
After learning about this, Yu Shinan, who was in charge of the primary and secondary examinations, also hurriedly came to the palace and hurriedly said.
"As the saying goes, it is better to demolish ten temples than to destroy a marriage."
Su Zimo shook his head, a hint of playfulness appeared on his face, and he said faintly: "Yu Aiqing, this matter can be regarded as a beautiful thing for those who come from poor families, so why should we pursue it?" ”
In fact, if it weren't for the fact that things were too hasty, Su Zimo would have planned to send someone to publicize the matter, so as to publicize the examination.
After all, the theory of "everything is inferior, only reading is high" has not yet been formed, and there is no poem that has been passed down through the ages, such as "there is a golden house in the book, and there is Yan Ruyu in the book".
What is the reader looking for?
It is nothing more than fame and fortune, glory and wealth, and stunning beauty.
Although the matter of catching a son-in-law under the list is a bit absurd, it is conducive to the promotion of the examination system, so it is natural to publicize it well.
Hearing this, Yu Shinan was also stunned, and immediately nodded and said: "Your Majesty has taught you a very good lesson, and the ministers have been taught." ”
"It doesn't matter, these days, Yu Aiqing is worried about the examination, it is indeed too hard, and I also see it in my eyes."
While speaking, Su Zimo also beckoned, and said: "Come on, spread my message, Yu Aiqing presided over the examination and made meritorious contributions, and was crowned with the position of a waiter in the Ministry of Officials, rewarded with 100 taels of gold, and 1,000 acres of fertile land." ”
"Your Majesty, long live my emperor."
For this scene, Yu Shinan was naturally excited.
Seeing this, Su Zimo stepped forward with a smile, patted the other party's shoulder, and said quietly: "In this last round, I plan to personally inspect these moves in this palace, and Yu Aiqing has to bother a lot." ”
"Obey."
Yu Shinan nodded and continued: "Being able to face His Majesty's Tianyan is also the luck of these movers. ”
…… I swear, I never want to write this kind of content again...... It's so troublesome, writing one chapter is more tiring than the previous three, and if I don't write Xiaobaiwen in Genesis, my head must be caught by something
