Imperial examinations in the traditional sense.

From the local to the central, it takes a long time and the process is complicated.

Guo Tianyi has been simplified.

It's a lot easier.

But also more scientific.

For example, the current Gongyuan examination has to be tested for three rounds.

There are three sets of questions in each round.

Three sets of exam questions, to put it bluntly, are a process of purifying the minds of students.

Those who do not have the idea of serving the country loyally will eventually be eliminated.

The three rounds of examinations correspond to the ancient township examination, the general examination, and the palace examination.

You must know that in ancient China, local exams alone had to go through several rounds.

Just one child has to go through three trials.

It is no exaggeration to say that there are many people who have only passed the children's examination three times at the age of forty or fifty.

Those who pass the three-round children's test are called Xiucai or Xianggong.

Xiucai can also make a living in the private sector to cope with the next exams by virtue of his status as Xiucai.

In addition, Xiucai also enjoys the right to be exempted from the tax on forced labor, not to be punished lightly in case of crime, not to kneel when seeing officials, and to go out to study.

With the identity of Xiucai, most people can make a good living, such as being a model teacher and so on.

Xiucai can participate in the exam, which is held every three years in August, and is called Qiuqiu.

Those who pass the test are called lifters.

All successful candidates can take the Beijing Entrance Examination in the coming year.

Only after winning the promotion can you obtain the qualification to be an official.

The Qing Dynasty novelist Wu Jingzi's "Fan Jin Zhongju" describes the social atmosphere at that time very well, and also profoundly describes the dark side of society under the traditional imperial examination.

The protagonist Fan Jin started taking the exam at the age of 20 and took the exam until he was 54 years old.

Over the past few decades, he has taken the exam more than 20 times, and he has always lost his name to Sun Shan.

His family was destitute, leaving only an old mother and a wife.

In addition, Fan Jin often let his father-in-law, Hu Butcher, insult him several times, and suffer from inhuman life.

The hardships of life are far beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

Fortunately, the emperor paid off, and Fan Jin finally won the promotion at the age of fifty-four.

I went crazy because I was overjoyed.

After Fan Jin recovered, his father-in-law, Hu Butcher, changed from his previous disdain to flattery.

At that time, the social atmosphere of being enthusiastic about official careers and good officials and fame and fortune was well described.

At the same time, after Fan Jinzhong's promotion, the rich people in the same county also stammered.

In the same year, Fan Jin's mother died.

Fan Jin was worried about Ding's mother for three years before he entered the Beijing entrance examination, and he was admitted to the Jinshi again.

A few years later, he was appointed to learn Taoism in Shandong, and then he was promoted to the general political envoy.

It can be said that Fan Jin lived a good life at the age of sixty.

However, at this age, under the new laws of Dafeng, they are all about to retire.

What's the use?

Therefore, in order to avoid the folk atmosphere becoming like this, Guo Tianyi simplified the process of the imperial examination.

The three rounds of exams in the capital are much simpler.

If someone passes the first round of exams and fails the second round, they can wait for the next imperial examination.

And the next imperial examination can directly participate in the second round of examinations.

If you pass the second round of the exam, the same is true for those who fail to pass the third round of the exam.

In this way, it can avoid things like Fan Jin from happening in the people.

The first day of exams ended quickly.

Three sets of test papers, adding up to a total of 30 questions.

All the students are waiting for the time when the results will be announced.

Two days later, the marking ended.

Outside the Imperial City, a list was posted.

There are more than 20,000 students, and 19,823 have passed the examination.

"Hahaha, I'm ninety-three, qualified, I'm qualified..."

"Congratulations, I'm also ninety-three..."

"Oh my God, why am I only eighty-nine? Am I one point short? ”

"Brother, are you not neat enough fonts, I heard that many people have been deducted ten points because the font of the test paper is not neat enough and has been altered..."

"It seems that I have changed my test paper a few times because I am too nervous to make a typo..."

"Ugh...."

"Ugh...."

In front of the emperor's list, life is varied.

Some people dance with joy, and some people are disappointed.

There are also people who are one point short of qualifying, so they pass by the official career.

"How is that possible?"

"How is this possible?"

"How could I be fifty points?"

After Mao Fei found his name, his eyes widened and his face was full of disbelief.

There are many people who are at the same level as him at the beginning.

Why is he only fifty points?

"Grass!"

"I'm not convinced!"

"Gu Qian's garbage actually has one hundred and forty-five points?"

Mao Fei's face turned green with anger.

Suddenly, Mao Fei saw Gu Qian, who was looking around in the crowd with a worried face, and immediately became angry.

There must be something greasy!

It must have been done on the day of the dog who ate wonton that day.

Perhaps, it was the emperor's relatives on that dog day.

Deliberately straighten yourself.

Absolutely.

Otherwise.

Why do you only have 50 points?

Even if they fail, most people are in their eighties.

There are even quite a few in their seventies.

How can I only be in my fifties?

"One hundred and forty-five points? Great...."Gu Qian saw his name, his face suddenly turned into a thick excitement, and the corners of his eyes moistened.

"Gu Qian!"

"I'll grass you old eyes!"

Mao Fei couldn't suppress his anger now, clenched his fists and turned directly to Gu Qian, who was happy.

Gu Qian didn't react, he was hit on the back of the head by Mao Fei's punch, and he suddenly fell to the ground.

"Grass, you old eyes.."

"I'm grassing you."

"You must have joined forces with others to harm me..."

"You and that dog thing made me fall off the list..."

Mao Fei was furious and continued to punch and kick.

In his eyes, Gu Qian was an ant.

As long as you don't die, you'll be fine.

Gu Gan's garbage can score 145 points, but he only has 50 points?

"You've gone too far."

"When you beat someone on the street, you think this is your home?"

Suddenly, Mao Fei's fist was pinched by a young man in a white robe, and at the same time kicked Mao Fei's chest.

Mao Fei stood up with a carp and said angrily, "Who the hell are you?" I have a grudge against him, and I care about you? ”

"My name is Huang Weiyin."

"This Enke is the divine grace of the Son of Heaven to the students of the world."

"No one can cheat for personal gain."

"Not only do you beat people, but you also spew feces all over your mouth, have you read all your books on dogs?"

As soon as Huang Weiyin's words fell, there were immediately discussions around him.

"Huang Weiyin? It seems to be the son of today's Tobe Shangshu, right? ”

"You don't even know that? The top card in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion said that the sons of the capital, Huang Weiyin's talents and learning are all ranked in the top three..."

"Huang Gongzi, I actually saw Huang Gongzi himself..."

"Huang Gongzi said it well, it's not right to beat people!"

"Yes, he framed this brother for cheating, that is, he framed the current son..."

“......”

Just when everyone was disagreeing, a team of catchers from Shuntian Mansion Yin came over quickly, and the head catcher led by the leader said, "Who is making trouble here?" ”

Immediately, the head catcher saw Huang Weiyin and said respectfully, "It turned out to be Huang Gongzi, I just heard that someone here is beating people in front of the emperor's list." ”

This time, most people were quiet.

It's really the son of the head of the household.

Mao Fei's face was like ashes, and he sat on the ground with his butt paralyzed.

He also made a lot of sons in the capital, but those sons are not worthy of lifting shoes for people of Huang Weiyin's level?

Huang Weiyin smiled slightly and said, "It's the person in front of you, who not only beats people, but also questions the grace of today's son." ”

"Take it away!"

Without saying a word, the head catcher ordered someone to handcuff the sluggish hair.

"This benevolent brother."

"Are you alright?"

Huang Weiyin looked at Gu Gandao, who was already bleeding from the corner of his mouth after being punched several times, "Brother Ren, you can score 145 points in high school, it is really commendable, can you go to the house and sit down?" Let's talk about some learning? ”

Huang Weiyin knew that Gu Qian was a talent.

He was by Gu Qian's side just now.

This is Huang Weiyin's biggest advantage, he doesn't look at people with colored eyes.

Gu Qian was slightly stunned, a little apprehensive, and said, "Okay, it's better to be respectful than to obey your fate." ”

Gu Qian knew that he had made friends.

Now I may not be able to thank Huang Weiyin for saving me today.

But in the future, he will surely repay with a spring.
