Chapter 2313: The Imperial Examination Begins to Strengthen the People

When the last word fell, the whole examination room suddenly became quiet.

"Prodigy, a blessing to the country." Li Dan said into the microphone, and then clapped his hands.

The applause of "Hua Hua Hua" rang out, and everyone was excited.

The people watching the big screen and water curtain outside followed suit and clapped, and the applause lasted for a long time.

Everyone loves to hear the four words "Auspiciousness to the country", which means that the Tang Dynasty royal family is happy.

In the past, when they were happy, they would reduce rent and taxes.

Now they are happy, and it is estimated that good things will happen.

"Today's boy exam has passed, and there will be no more boy exams."

"Prodigy, he is indeed a child prodigy."

"Select the topic briefly and answer quickly, the whole court dare not ask."

"My son will have this day in the future, even if I die immediately, I will have no regrets."

"You don't have a wife yet, where will the child come from?"

"Yes, there will be, there will definitely be! Why are there no bricks on the ground?"

"Okay, okay, there will be, I promise, don't be angry."

"After the show, they went to eat shabu-shabu?"

"I think everyone who saw it today is happy."

"Yes, yes, I am happy."

The students and ordinary people talked about it, and saw the people on the screen leaving, and then the screen went black.

However, what some people said may not be correct, not everyone is happy.

The people of the aristocratic families are depressed, just as the students said, today's boy exam has passed, and there will be no more boy exams.

Pei Yaoqing, who is an official in Chang'an, is from the Pei family of Hedong. He was able to pass the boy exam, in addition to his own intelligence, his family relationship is also involved.

Countless clans want to train their children to be child prodigies, enter the officialdom in advance, and achieve greater success in the future.

In the past, when taking the Tongzi exam, you had to memorize the Book of Songs, the Book of Filial Piety, and the Analects, and be able to write. The examiner would then let you pass the exam.

It is really amazing for children under the age of ten to memorize these three books.

Occasionally, some children will forget, so try to choose questions that are not easy to forget.

The Tongzi exam that just ended left everyone dumbfounded.

The three children were so strong that the ministers dared not ask them aloud. Some were dissatisfied and ended up losing face.

If it weren't for your majesty helping to answer a question and asking for face, the three children would have forced a group of great scholars to be ashamed.

Starting next year, anyone who wants their children to participate in the Tongzi exam will have to face a group of people.

This year, I didn't dare to ask the three children, but I will take revenge on other children in the future.

I thought about the Tongzi exam, but someone has made a sample. According to this difficulty, it is hell-level.

How can the aristocratic families be happy? Their smart little kids have no way out.

"Gui Zang, what do you think? Isn't it a pity that you can't show your ability?"

Bi Gou teased Li Gui Zang, saying that no one had a chance to answer the Analects this year.

Li Gui Zang curled his lips and said, "Tomorrow, the Jinshi exam will start. After it ends, there will be the Xiucai exam. The Xiucai exam doesn't ask questions about classics."

"The Xiucai exam only asks about current affairs and strategies, not other questions." Bi Gou puffed out his chest.

The Xiucai exam should include classics and history. Classics refers to the classics of the Four Books and Five Classics, and history refers to the history of previous dynasties such as the Records of the Grand Historian.

For some people who are taking the Xiucai exam, classics and history are not the most difficult, and most of them can be answered.

The difficulty lies in strategies. How do you fight against Tubo?

Bi Gou and others are most afraid of the first two. God knows where the children will turn the questions?

What about Sun Tzu's Art of War, Guiguzi, Han Feizi, the Warring States Policy, the Six Strategies, Gongsun Longzi, Lüshi Chunqiu...

How many people do you need to find to be examiners if you want to ask such questions?

Li Guizang was about to say something else, but the little girl Qingdai stopped him: "Junior brother, when two armies are fighting, you cannot reveal your strategy and tactics. See you in the examination room."

"Oh! I almost got tricked." Li Guizang glanced at Bi Gou.

"Hmph!" Bi Gou snorted and turned his head, not looking like a prime minister at all.

As expected, they had shabu-shabu for lunch. In the afternoon, the three children went to the hospital with Li Yi for rounds. They didn't care about the imperial examination tomorrow.

Many students were still studying hard and even preparing.

The imperial examination lasted for four days. They stayed up all night to get to the examination room. They rested first. They were not allowed to read in the examination room.

...

On the first day of February, before dawn, the candidates who took the imperial examination arrived at Li's manor at four in the morning.

One by one, they went in, no need to wait outside.

Someone arranged to eat in the cafeteria. The examination started at eight in the morning.

The three children of Qingdai went to bed early yesterday and were woken up at half past five in the morning.

They yawned and went to take a bath. It seemed that the children were not getting enough sleep.

Li Guizang came out ten minutes later, and his hair was blow-dried.

Qingdai and Zhuozhuo tied their hair for half an hour.

They ate meat buns and drank cucumber soup.

After dinner, they strolled slowly. The exam lasted a long time, so this morning meal was very important.

If you eat late, you will feel sleepy when you arrive at the exam room. Eat two hours in advance and eat half full. When it is around nine o'clock, they have a snack.

The children in the school also eat this way. The Great Tang Dynasty Foundation cooperates with Li Yi to carry out the project of strengthening the people.

Ordinary people eat two meals a day, and the children in the school eat three nutritious meals and one snack.

The money is sent directly to the schools in various parts of the Tang Dynasty by the people of the foundation. The headmaster and the teacher are responsible for finding people to prepare meals and buy ingredients.

Don't let the parents of the children watch, the teachers of the Tang Dynasty are still trustworthy.

They can take an extra part for themselves and give the rest to the children.

Some teachers and masters in many counties of Jingzhao Prefecture gave their share to students. ＵＵReading www.uｕkanshu.net

The Great Tang Dynasty Foundation sent people to investigate and found that they did not give enough to the teachers after they found it. They are not allowed to do this all the time.

They also have families to support. They have taken care of other people’s children, but what if their own family members are malnourished?

Don't let those who work for the masses freeze to death in the wind and snow.

Once the Master's home is settled and there are no worries, he can devote more energy to the children.

Li Yi believes that in more than ten years, the average height and physical condition of children will be better than now.

At eight o'clock, Li Yicai took his apprentices into the examination room.

Other candidates went in early, took a shower first, and then changed clothes. They didn't need to bring anything with them, and they weren't allowed to bring anything with them.

Among them were a bunch of young people from the Li family's Zhuangzi. They had studied in Zhuangzi for several years. This year's scripture questions were only about the Analects. They wanted to give it a try.

I also memorized several medical books, and arithmetic was a basic skill.

They were all admitted to the imperial examinations, but they were not good at understanding the classics and Dharma, and they memorized too many things.

Obviously they don't like it. It's relatively easy to be a good Jinshi, but the singing in the end is a bit more difficult.

The recommendation quota given by Lijiazhuangzi focused on whether participation was correct, and there was no expectation that they would pass the exam.

"Go in and take the test normally. When you feel sleepy, go to sleep. The teachers will come in for a walk. Remember to ask if you know anything."

When Li Yi sent his apprentices to the door, he said it in front of a group of inspectors.

"Master!" The three children quit. What do you mean by asking without knowing? Are you looking down on us?

"Go, go!" One of Li Yi's apprentices patted him on the head.

The person doing the inspection smiled and stepped aside to indicate that we would not search him.

Yesterday we saw how the child test failed. Three children had to cheat?

The only things that can cheat are scripture questions, the Analects of Confucius, and medical books.

I am a medical student, so I have already mastered the contents of those books. As for the Analects of Confucius...
