Chapter 279 The Palace Examination of the B Scroll——An Unusual Path!

Half a month is an extremely wonderful holiday for the students who have passed the Jinshi exam.

Well, of course there are those who still have to worry about and struggle for the palace examination, but in fact, those with a little experience and experience know that the palace examination is based on impromptu performance, depending on the emperor's will.

It doesn't make much sense to study hard too much, and it may even lead to abnormal performance because of being too nervous.

People like Lian Guoshi, Xu Xie, Han Jing, etc. have longed for the Three Tripod Armor. Although they still face challenges from Yang Sichang, Huang Zunsu, Ai Nanxing and other students who broke into the top ten in the examination, the Sanding Armor itself is There are too many uncertain factors, and it all depends on the play and the dictatorship of the Sacred Heart.

But people like Feng Ziying, Ye Tinggui, Fan Jingwen, Zheng Chongjian, Wu Wei and others still need to consider being able to enter the top two.

On the contrary, Fang Youdu was the most open-minded. In his own words, he has achieved the title of Jinshi with extraordinary performance, what else can he hope for?
"Ziying, Mengzhang, Keyou, Luyou, Dazhang, I didn't say that if I didn't have to take part in this imperial examination, I wouldn't have to. I can ask for a relaxing vacation to go home and get married, and the family members in my hometown probably know the good news, are they all celebrating?"

Fang Youdu looked calm and relaxed, making everyone shake their heads and smile endlessly.

If you don't want to be strong, Fang Youdu has no psychological burden at all, but the few of you are still determined to fight, so naturally it is difficult to be as chic as this guy.

But everyone knows very well in their hearts that the ranking of the top three in the palace examination should not be much different from this general examination.

After all, everyone's strength is there, even if they perform at a super level, they are just individual people.

Generally speaking, if there are more than [-] Jinshi in the examination, it is difficult to break into the top two in the palace examination.

Of course, this can only be said under common sense. In almost every subject, there are still two or three or three or five aliens who will break through this barrier, so everyone hopes that they can become this alternative.

The palace examination was held in Fengtian Hall. Feng Ziying realized that this should be the Hall of Supreme Harmony in her previous life when she arrived. However, it should have been renovated to a certain extent following the pattern of the former Ming Dynasty. This will be the place for the palace examination.

According to the practice of Dazhou, the examination questions are issued in the morning, and then the papers are handed in at two quarters. The time is about five hours, and a simple meal will be provided at noon.

It should be said that the time is not too short. After all, there is only one question in this palace examination, and the required number of words is not many, generally within a thousand words, but the words are required to be refined, the discussion should be meaningful, and the ideas and countermeasures must not fall into the stereotypes.

The examination questions for the palace examination can either be drawn up by the six officials of the cabinet and handed over to the emperor for selection, or they can be determined by the emperor himself. The former is more common, but the latter is not uncommon.

Even the final topic of the Jinke Examination was drawn up by the emperor himself, needless to say, the emperor personally set the topic for the Jinke Palace Examination.

However, although the emperor personally drafted the questions for the general examination, they had to be reviewed by the cabinet after all, so as to prevent the questions from being too biased from affecting the overall scores of the candidates, but the palace examination was basically not subject to this restriction.

Because those who can pass the test are basically the elites of the entire Great Zhou. No matter from which angle the question is asked, they should be able to answer it. The only thing to see is whether the candidate's answer is in line with the emperor's wishes.

The 380 students did not line up according to the ranking of the examination, but lined up according to the region, starting from the two straights, and then from north to south, mixed.

Feng Ziying and Fan Jingwen are still walking together. A total of 29 Jinshi candidates have passed the examination in the whole of Beizhili. Among them, there are only Fan Jingwen and Feng Ziying in Qingtan Academy, compared with two or three in Chongzheng, Tonghui and Diecui Academy. However, there are more Qingtan Jinshi in Nanzhili and Henan, such as Lian Guoshi, Cao Wenheng, and Ye Tinggui are all from Henan, and there are also many Qingtan Jinshi in Nanzhili, Cai Maode, Fang Zhenru, Wu Wei, Fang You They are all from Southern Zhili.

Feng Ziying saw Yang Sichang and Hou Xun at a glance. Yang Sichang was fourth in high school, and Hou Xun was not bad. He was [-]th in high school.

"Brother Wenqiang, Brother Ruopu." Feng Ziying took the initiative to greet him, and Fan Jingwen also followed.

"Ziying, Mengzhang." Yang Sichang and Hou Xun also bowed their hands to Feng Ziying and Fan Jingwen.

After the Shilin Grand Meeting the year before last, the students of Qingtan Academy and Chongzheng Academy got to know each other a lot, especially the top-notch ones basically knew each other. It is far ahead, but Chongzheng Academy is also steadily improving.

Tonghui Academy, which originally kept pace with these two academies, was obviously separated, and fell into the second echelon sequence together with Pinecui Academy.

This also improved the relationship between the students of Qingtan Academy and Chongzheng Academy a lot. At the same time, the students of the two academies began to consciously regard Tonghui Academy and Pinnacle Academy as second-rate.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, a head of the Ministry of Rites guided the Jinshi to enter separately.

At this time, the emperor and all the civil and military officials in the Fengtian Hall had already stood still in official uniforms, and a group of Jinshi were led to the red platform in front of the hall with a feeling of sincerity and fear. Well, it was the so-called Danchi Nei.

Then all the students performed five prostrations and three kowtows under the auspices of the ceremonial officer. After the official of Honghe Temple finished the ceremony, the whip was sounded. The emperor and all the officials retreated. .

Everyone knelt down to accept the policy questions, and each answered the countermeasures on the test table.

It was the first time for Feng Ziying to experience this kind of strange scene. He didn't even see the appearance of Emperor Yonglong and the three elders clearly, but he saw Qi Yongtai and Qiao Yingjia. It has to be said that his eyes were aimed at something useful. .

Feng Ziying couldn't help getting excited when the question was asked.

"A Brief Discussion on the Priorities and Countermeasures of Peripheral Sufferings"

When she saw this question, Feng Ziying knew that what Qiao Yingjia said had worked. Gu Bingqian definitely sent the key "evidence" of the lock-up incident to the palace, and asked Emperor Yonglong to read it.

And this question was definitely proposed by Emperor Yonglong himself, and it was decided without even discussing with the cabinet elders and the officials of Liubutang.

Before posing a threat to the great interests of the Supreme Emperor and causing the Supreme Emperor's doubts and backlash, Emperor Yonglong could indeed exert his arbitrary power on these minor issues, not to mention that this was his power in the first place.

I'm afraid that no one thought that the examination questions of the Imperial Palace would be so biased. Since the subject of the examination has already involved military affairs, generally speaking, it is impossible to continue to ask questions in this direction in the imperial examination.

This is the basic rule of the palace examination questions. For example, if the theme of the palace examination is wealth, then the palace examination will generally be about agriculture, water conservancy or water affairs. If the examination is about agriculture, then the palace examination may be about enlightenment. People's livelihood, all in all, will basically not overlap.

However, this Emperor Yonglong really wants to take an unusual path.

Feng Ziying even felt that several eyes were looking at her at this moment.

No need to ask, it must be those people that night, and now even the palace test questions are partially bet on the direction, this is simply a prophecy of God.

But Feng Ziying knew that for the few of them, this question was just a bit of an advantage, but it might not be possible for them to get what they wanted.

Because the title of this question lies in the four words "short of coping".

In the end, the priority still has to come down to the strategy of coping.

Feng Ziying was able to give them an overview of the priorities that night, and basically they all knew, but to be honest, even Feng Ziying hadn't seriously thought about the strategy before.

Because he never thought that he would get such a biased question in the imperial examination. This should not be a question that the Jinshi candidates should answer. He didn't know if the old man and the officials of the Liubutang had any quarrel with the emperor. , but it is estimated that there should be, but he did not win the Yonglong Emperor.

After studying books for decades and never being in touch with military affairs, how could ordinary students know how to deal with border troubles?

Even Feng Ziying herself is not very sure.

But I don't have much confidence, so other students, unless they are from Weizhen and have a deep understanding of border military affairs, and even a clear understanding of the threats in the entire Dazhou, You have to win at this question, and the odds of that are slim.

The children of Weizhen in the southeast coast may know the threat of the Japanese invaders very well, but how much do they know about the threat of the Tatars in the northwest?Do the children of Liaodong Town know where Annan and Dongwu are?Do you know the conflict between chieftain and official?

It's impossible, even if someone else knows, so what?I never thought about becoming a Sanding Jia, that would be too hated, if I really want to enter the Sanding Jia with my little writing skills and use it as Cheng Wen, I will probably be scolded to death by thousands of students.

Well, apart from herself, Feng Ziying thought proudly, complete, happy, joyful, Feng Ziying couldn't think of any words to use to describe her mood.

Moreover, this is a brief discussion that requires less than a thousand words, which means that only point-to-point discussions are required, without specific explanations, which can avoid leaking too many flaws, which is exactly what Feng Ziying wants.

Feng Ziying took a deep breath, began to solve the problem, and wrote, "The trouble in my heart - Liaodong,..."

"..., the elbow and armpit trouble and the art of balance - Tartar,..."

"Sibling troubles and benefits—threats and opportunities from the sea, . . . "

"The disease of ringworm and scabies can also be fatal - the dispute between chieftain and officials should not be underestimated,..."

From the moment I wrote a pen, countless thoughts and ideas kept pouring out of my mind, which gathered the knowledge of the talkative powerhouses I obtained from books, forums, Zhihu, Baidu and other networks in my previous life, which can be simplified at this time played out.

Don't ask how specific, practical and operable, but seek novel ideas and break through the stereotypes. Isn't this what His Majesty the Emperor wants?

Even His Majesty the Emperor dared not take the usual path, why didn't he dare to make a move?
