Changfeng Thousands of Miles End Han Song

Chapter 435 Unlearned and Incompetent King Lu

Li Ruoxu has been in Yidu for more than two months, and he has done more than one set of exam questions revealed by the Imperial College.He is very clear about the examination mode and rules of Qi State.

The examination mode here is quite different from that of Song Ting imperial examination.

The first is the percentage system, which is completely different from the previous dynasties.No, it's not even a "all different" to sum it up, it's totally different, a whole other set of concepts.

——This is a one-step step from the grading system to the [-]-point system.

Perhaps many Chinese in later generations do not know that the grading system [hierarchy] they are clamoring for has actually existed in China for 2000 years, and it exists in Chinese teaching and scientific examinations.

Some fans of historical novels should know that the scientific examination markers of the Ming and Qing Dynasties would grade the sealed test papers according to their own likes and dislikes, using "○, △, \, |, ×" (i.e. circles, sharp points, dots) respectively. , straight, cross) as the read volume identifier.Why don't these five symbols represent five different grades, and what is the difference between them and the "A, B, C, D, E" of later generations in the West?

Is it possible that only ABCD is the grading system, not circles, points, dots, straights, and crosses?

It doesn't make sense.

Nowadays, no one clamors that the grading system is better than the [-]-point system. On the contrary, many speeches are praising the superiority of the [-]-point system.

This more detailed scoring standard gives people a very unique feeling.First of all, it can make an accurate quantitative representation of students' grades in various subjects.Just talking about the scientific examination can make the "imperial court" more clearly grasp the academic strengths and weaknesses of the candidates and their biases.

It's easy to assign work in the future, isn't it?
Second, it is easy to layer.The percentage system has many observation points and has a high degree of discrimination.In plain language, it is a contest of scores, and it is clear at a glance whether it is superior or inferior.

This also simplifies the selection of scholars through the imperial examination.How many names you take will be determined by your score.

Anyway, in the current Qilu land, there is not much voice to say that the 21-point system is lacking.In the 21st century, the latter had its shortcomings and was criticized by countless people. That is also the [-]st century.It was in an era when the west was flourishing and the east was declining...

The second is the examination mode. Although there are still examinations on the Four Books and Five Classics, these are only the basic questions of the later examination papers. What really account for higher scores are the professional questions and the final policy theory.

It is worth mentioning that, apart from some strategic theories, the additional papers are all about the most basic questions about astronomy, geography, physics, chemistry and mechanics. Candidates are free to choose questions and answer them without any requirement.

It is a national policy to use the imperial examination form as the national selection.Past and present lives are normal.Chinese people cannot do without examinations, and scholars in this era cannot do without imperial examinations.

This form has long been fixed, but the content of the imperial examination can be changed slowly.But all this takes time.

The basic Four Books and Five Classics and more importantly profound knowledge and broad insights.With only extraordinary literary talent and the Four Books and Five Classics, it is difficult to write brilliant policies and essays.This type of question requires candidates to be knowledgeable and tests their long-term vision and political wisdom.

To a certain extent, it is reasonable for the Tang and Song Dynasties to use policy theory to draw materials.It is not comparable to the stereotyped essays of the Ming and Qing Dynasties of later generations.

And when a person has a certain professional knowledge, and a certain political vision and wisdom, even if it is only theoretical, this person already has the basic qualities of an official.

"Brother Li is in a hurry, where do you want to go?"

"So it's Brother Wu Xian. Brother Yu wants to go to Tianlu Pavilion to study..." Li Ruoxu, whose alias was Li Xu, laughed.Tianlu Pavilion is the first public library in Yidu City. It was named because it was named after the Western Han Dynasty.At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, the Liu family continued to implement the "Law of Holding Books" of the Qin Dynasty (the ban on people not being allowed to collect books).Collect and organize books, and hide them in Tianlu Pavilion and Shiqu Pavilion.

The name of Shiqu Pavilion is too strong, so Lu Qian decided to name it Tianlu Pavilion.

In the past few months, countless scholars and bureaucrats have gathered there. Regardless of whether they intend to achieve fame or not, the establishment of such a public library has won Lu Qian a lot of praise.It also provides a good place for these candidates.

"Go together, go together..."

The exam day is getting closer, and more and more candidates are gathered in Tianlu Pavilion.

At this time, in Prince Qi's mansion, Lu Qian was looking at the questions in front of him, his eyes were a little hazy.

"In the early Han Dynasty, the law of merchants and merchants. What does this mean?" He couldn't understand it.

Fan Rui, the Minister of Rites, glanced at him, and Zhao Mingcheng strode out and said: "Your Majesty, in the early Han Dynasty, Emperor Gaozu ordered the people of Jia not to wear clothes or ride in carriages, and he imposed high rents and taxes to humiliate them. When Xiaohui and Gaohou, For the first time in the world, the law of merchants was restored; however, the descendants of merchants are not allowed to serve as officials."

Oh, so he will understand.Although he still doesn't know the purpose of this policy theory, but it doesn't matter, he only looks at what suits his appetite.He kicked away those stone bumps that still regarded merchants as lowly. "This theory is okay. You can see people's original thoughts."

"Your Majesty sees it clearly. Times have changed and the world has changed. In today's world, the government and the people are one family, and the farmers and merchants are concerned. The merchants are natives of farmers, and the farmers rely on merchants to do business. They seek to complement each other, not to be sick." Fan Rui said in a friendly way.

Ever since Lu Qian's words at the luncheon were spread to Yidu, how could the people in the latter fail to see whether he was a businessman or a businessman?

"Gong Sui governs Bohai, and Yu Xu governs Chaogelun." Lu Qian wanted to say that he didn't know any of these two.

Zhao Mingcheng didn't need Lu Qian to speak this time, so he said first: "Gong Sui, a famous official in the Western Han Dynasty; Yu Xu, a famous official in the Eastern Han Dynasty." He told Lu Qian the life stories of these two people with a clever tongue.

To put it simply, both of these two men were talents of the moment who put down the rebellion and made meritorious deeds in the state, but the former put down the bandits in Germany, and the latter put down the chaos in art.

Is it the most important thing to "govern the people in chaos as much as the ropes of chaos, don't rush; only take it easy, and then you can manage it", or "do not seek easy things, do not seek refuge in things, this is the duty of a minister. If you don't encounter entanglements, why don't you use a sharp weapon?" good? "The benevolent sees benevolence and the wise sees wisdom. Great kindness."

Lu Qian couldn't help admiring, this question is really powerful.Just like the left and right, if you go too far to the right, you will be foolish, not a good shepherd; if you go too far to the left, you will be cruel, and you will lose your tolerance, how can you take on important responsibilities?And if you want to go in the middle, you will fall into the middle again.

Such a series of ten questions, each one unique, made Lu Qian deeply appreciate the true meaning of the strategy.

The two histories of the Sui and Tang dynasties are not based on Wang Tongli's biography; Wu Jing's "Zhenguan Zhengyao", Zhang Jiuling's "Golden Mirror for Thousand Years", Sima Guang's "Zizhi Tongjian" theory; China's situation theory; Zhou and Tang Dynasties put more emphasis on the inside than the Qin and Wei Each has its own theory of lightness and internal weight; Ban Gu ridiculed Jia Yi's theory of five baits and three appearances.However, Qin Mu tried to use it to dominate Xirong, and Zhongxing also used it to quit Shanyu, and his theory was not ineffective; Zhuge Liang used his skills without the intention of applying for business, Wang Anshi used his facts to apply for business and concealed his theory; Pei Du It is advisable for the Prime Minister to recruit talented people from all over the world and his staff, please meet and discuss in private...

A total of ten questions fully demonstrated King Lu's ignorance.However, only three of them were selected for the present subject, selected by Lu Qian himself, sealed with wax paint, and opened on the day of the scientific examination, and taken out as a policy.

……

On the day of the exam, weddings and funerals were prohibited in Yidu.Whoever's wedding or wedding comes to this day will be in trouble.

Li Ruoxu writes like a god.

He doesn't understand the meaning of the Four Books and Five Classics, but the scripture tester is the simplest.No matter how stupid a person is, he should be familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics.

It doesn’t matter what the meaning is, cut off the beginning and the end, leave only one line in the middle, and leave a few words in this line, similar to the fill-in-the-blank questions in the Chinese exams of later generations.The test is to recite memory ability.This is the real question of sending points.

If it weren't for Li Tang, how could there be such a saying as "thirty old Mingjing, fifty young Jinshi".

After passing the free points questions and coming to the professional question area, Li Ruoxu felt the pressure.Although he has long been familiar with the rules and regulations of the "Political Plan" and has extensive knowledge of the country's rules and regulations, it is not easy to obtain high scores in this [-]-point professional question.
