The New Biography of Han Lingdi

Chapter 175

Everything went according to plan, and Liu Hong arranged for the first examination of the scholars.According to Liu Hong, the so-called initial test is to check their basic homework, that is, the dictation of the Four Books and Five Classics, as well as some more in-depth questions and answers.

Generally speaking, with regard to ordinary dictation, Liu Hong believes that all these scholars should pass, but the question and answer question is different, and the question and answer question will screen out some people who only know the endorsement.

These people are those who will be screened out in the initial stage.What the officialdom needs is flexibility, not people who just talk about dead truth.

Wang Xu and Yang Ci walked left and right in the examination room.Exam time is a time of incense sticks.Now most of the scholars have passed the level of dictation.

Now start to tackle the following questions and answers. The questions and answers are made by Wang Xu and Yang Ci after discussion.According to Liu Hong's plan, two-thirds of the people must be screened out in the initial test this time.

Therefore, the difficulty of these questions and answers they designed is not high.Wang Xu believes that if someone can answer three of these five questions, then it is absolutely possible to pass the first test, and there are basically no problems in the second test.

When these scholars answered the previous dictation, the expressions on their faces were like a spring breeze, but when they saw this short answer question, the expressions on their faces changed very wonderfully.

There are people who scratch their cheeks, and there are people who look around.

"How do you think they can pass? How much can they pass?" Yang Ci quietly asked Wang Xu from the side. Seeing the reactions of these scholars, she felt that most of them might not be able to pass the first question.

"It's hard to say, you and I will take a look at the test paper." Wang Xu is like this, when he has not seen the final result, he will never comment on anything.

After the two finished talking, they continued to wander around the examination room.This examination room was specially arranged by Liu Hong, and the entire examination room was large enough.It can accommodate 3000 people for examination at the same time.

After the two people walked around for a while, they found that there were really a few people who didn't change their expressions. They were just doing the questions on their own without caring about the difficulty of the questions.

"The mentality of those people is good. Although I don't know their talent, but look at this mentality. It's rare!" Yang Ci said to Wang Xu.Among the less than [-] scholars, there are only five or six with this mentality.

"That's the case. Mount Tai collapsed in front of him without changing his face. This is the basic mentality of an official." Wang Xu said.

"Okay, it's time to close the scroll." At this time, a group of soldiers came in outside, and they said to close the scroll.

The time control of the examination room has nothing to do with Wang Xu and Yang Ci. Liu Hong will personally send soldiers here to monitor the time.At the same time, these soldiers will also catch those who make trouble in the examination room.

"What? So fast?" A scholar was not happy. He had not finished answering the first question and was about to collect the paper?

"It's His Majesty's order to close the scroll now. It's just a stick of incense. Everyone has the same time. Why, you have to resist the order." The soldier who took the lead seemed to have a bad temper, and said directly.

"No, no," the scholar was intimidated by the blood on the leading soldier.He only reads the books of sages and sages, and he doesn't hear anything outside the window. Of course, his aura is stronger than these veterans who have come down from the battlefield.

"Okay, close the papers. In three days' time, here is the list of people who will pass the preliminary examination. I hope everyone will come and take a look." The soldier didn't say anything to the scholar.

Now he has a more urgent task, which is to put away these test papers safely and correctly.Then he handed it over to the people who were trying to counter the rebellion for the first time, so that his task was completed.

The scholars were also very cooperative, honestly handed over the papers and then left the entire examination room.

"My lords, this is the test paper for the exam. Please check it out." The man said to Wang Xu and Yang Ci after collecting the test paper.

"We will start preparing for the review right away. Please go back and rest this general, and I will trouble you again in three days." Wang Xu said.

The examination schedule arranged by Liu Hong is the first literati examination. The papers will be approved within three days after the initial examination, and the re-examination list will be announced three days later.Then prepare for the exam the next day after the re-examination list is announced.

Then after the literati are done, the next step is the martial arts test.The initial test was set up in the camp of the new army.At that time, they will pass the preliminary examination, and then directly obtain the qualifications of the palace examination with the literati who pass the re-examination.

Then Liu Hong will summon the warriors in the morning of the day and the afternoon of Zhou Jianwen's day, and just like this, the final selection of talents will begin.

...... The dividing line.

After a series of three-day review.Wang Xu and Yang Ci finally made a list of those who passed the preliminary examination.

Of course, because there are strict requirements at the beginning, you must pass 1/3 of them, and there is no requirement for the re-examination, that is, if the examiner thinks that these people are not suitable, then you don't have to.

So when Wang Xu and Yang Ci finished selecting these test papers, they knew very well that there would not be more than fifty people who could pass the retest here.

Most of the people in the test papers they selected just ignored the questions and piled up their own literary talents without any practical meaning, but they were much better than those who did not answer, so Wang Xu and Yang Ci let them pass the preliminary test .

When the list of those who passed the re-examination was announced three days later, some people were happy and others were sad. Those who passed were elated, but those who failed could only feel sad secretly.

Of course, the day after they passed was their retest time. The time was very urgent, and they had no more time to get excited.But it was the first time the imperial court issued a recruitment order, and no one knew what the re-examination was like.

They don't know what the retest questions will be, and now they can only wait anxiously, reviewing without any purpose and principle.

In this way, they began to prepare for the re-examination. The place of the re-examination was similar to that of the first test, and it was a relatively empty room.

The only difference is that there were soldiers in the examination room at that time, but the soldiers in the first examination were outside the house, while the soldiers in the duplex were inside the house.

The preparation for the resumption link is similar to the first test, but there is a problem at this time, that is how to strengthen the whole big man.

Why can they only start answering questions according to their own thoughts, the time is still a stick of incense, and they start answering questions crazily.After burning incense, the soldiers collected the test papers again.

After handing over the test papers to the examiner, the students can leave.

Although the examiners are Chen Fan and Yuan Feng.However, there are actually three groups of people on the test paper for evaluation, that is, the three groups can only pass the re-examination after they decide at the same time that this person passes.

Therefore, they also began to critique in a hurry, and the martial arts exams began one after another not long after.
