I am a child of Daqin Xiong, who supervises the country at the age of eight

Chapter 229
Yes, Ying Changsheng is the dean of their academy, but they have forgotten this.

It's not their fault, it's all because of Ying Changsheng.

Ying Changsheng has always been indifferent to the work of the academy.

Everything in the academy was handled by Zhang Liang in the past.

For so long, Ying Changsheng has been in the academy, and the number of times he has shown up is in single digits.

Therefore, it is normal for the students not to know his identity.

I only saw this moment, after learning about it.

The students, one after another, bowed their hands and opened their mouths.

"We have met the dean!"

"Haha, no need to be polite, no need to be polite!"

Ying Changsheng said to the students with a smile.

With a proud look on his face.

In his opinion.

This is simply, don't be too cool.

I only heard him continue to open his mouth to speak.

"My lord called you over today. Do you know why?"

"This one……"

For a moment, the more than 1000 poor students standing here looked puzzled.

At this moment, they really don't know why Ying Changsheng summoned them to this place.

At this time, Ying Changsheng smiled at them and opened his mouth to explain.

"I summoned you and others, and what I did was just one thing!"

"Do you know that I, Daqin, convened a system called the imperial examination system!"

"This……"

The students are still puzzled.

After all, they don't know what the imperial examination system is.

Seeing this, Ying Changsheng only explained it more clearly, he said.

"This imperial examination system, speaking of it, is to pass examinations, select talents, and then let these people become officials. What do you think?"

"This, this is good!"

Ying Changsheng's voice fell.

For a moment, the eyes of all the students present suddenly lit up.

the reason is simple.

These humble scholars, although their academic performance is considered pretty good.

Although they possessed a lot of knowledge, their background restricted their further development.

In this situation.

They want to go one step further.

If they want to develop in their careers, it will be even more difficult.

For these humble scholars, they often gather together and spurn the so-called "meat eaters" there.

But in fact, why don't they want to be a meat eater?

At this moment, for them, this opportunity is indescribably important.

After all, for them who have mastered a lot of knowledge, it couldn't be easier to cope with the imperial examination.

Moreover, even if you can't pass the exam to become an official once.

But there is a next time, and, next time!

For a moment, the students couldn't help fantasizing that one day they would pass the imperial examinations, enter the imperial court, and then become prime ministers.

At the same time, Ying Changsheng asked the students.

"I have already told you about this matter, and you have heard about it. Now, why don't you hurry back to the classroom and study?"

As he said that, what did Ying Changsheng think of, and he reminded the students present.

"By the way, there is one more thing, you have to keep in mind!"

After speaking, Ying Changsheng looked at all the students in front of him, and then opened his mouth to ask.

"How is your body? Can you ride a horse, can you shoot an arrow, what about your skills? How about your strength?"

"This……"

For a while, the students looked at each other in blank dismay. Although they were puzzled, they still clapped their hands and said.

"Dean, this matter is naturally not a problem!"

Well, this was the pre-Qin period.

Even the cynics of later generations are quite capable of fighting.

In this era, it is a man who is the master of wielding swords and guns.

Naturally.

In such an era, for the students, the physical strength test, as well as the martial arts test, couldn't be easier.

And the reason why this crop will be mentioned.

This is also due to Ying Changsheng's own considerations.

In his opinion, although the imperial examination is good, it also has a disadvantage, that is, it is easy to cause officials to lose their force.

This is not talking.

After the imperial examinations were implemented in later generations, and after the Song and Ming dynasties, Confucian scholars became women, and they no longer had the bravery of the Han and Tang Dynasties.

Why is that?
This is because in the imperial examination, only the articles are tested, and nothing else is ignored.

Under such circumstances, in the long run, it will naturally lead to such consequences.

As for Ying Changsheng, he must try his best to prevent this consequence from happening.

And his method is also very simple.

That is.

Add martial arts, archery, physical strength, and equestrian skills to the imperial examination.

This exam does not determine the result, but if even these exams cannot be passed.

Then don't even think about entering the court and becoming an official!
As such.

A group of scholars who are proficient in horseback riding, martial arts, physical strength, and archery, entered the court.

Then, it is conceivable that the combat effectiveness of the officials is still sturdy.

Moreover, in addition to these, Ying Changsheng also planned to let Ying Zheng add an art of war to the imperial examination.

the reason is.

During the Qin Dynasty, there was no distinction between civil and military.

In this situation.

Sometimes the county magistrate, as a soldier, leads the army and goes to the battlefield in person.

If a county magistrate is only proficient in martial arts, but not the art of war.

So, on the battlefield, at most he is just a brave soldier, so what if he can command thousands of troops?
Therefore, the assessment of the art of war is also imperative, Ying Changsheng continued to say.

"The art of war will also be added to this exam. You should also pay attention to military affairs these days and read some military books. Do you understand?"

"Students get it!"

All of a sudden, the students nodded.

After Ying Changsheng finished speaking, he waved his hand to signal all the students present to back down.

After they left, Zhang Liang walked to Ying Changsheng's side and asked worriedly.

"Nineteenth son, I know that what you said is for the benefit of these students, but I am still a little worried. After all, you have told the students all these things. The court, the emperor , if you know, will you blame me?"

"This one won't!"

Ying Changsheng said to Zhang Liang with a confident face.

Seeing him, he said with a smile.

"Anyway, the content of the imperial examination will be announced tomorrow. I just told the students one day in advance. What kind of crime is this?"

"Furthermore, this imperial examination was originally my young master's suggestion. It is natural for my young master to provide some convenience to the students..."

"It is!"

Hearing this, Zhang Liang nodded.

It makes sense.

At this time, Ying Changsheng couldn't help but sigh again.

"I hope that the students in our academy can pass the exam a few more, more, and enter the imperial court as officials!"
