After rebirth, I became the stupid son of the Hou family

Chapter 165 Preparation before the Scientific Examination

After Jiang Chen started school this time, he devoted himself to very intense studies.

The school conducted an examination as soon as the school started, and selected some students with excellent scores from this examination. These students did not need to take the provincial examination and the general examination. In the fall, they can directly take the autumn scientific examination.

Fortunately, Jiang Chen and Liu Huaian were both selected outstanding students and did not need to take the provincial examination or the general examination.

Jiang Feng did not do well in the exam this time, and neither Hu Peng nor Jiang Feng were among the top students.

They need to participate in the first two selections.But as soon as Hu Gao sent a letter to Taixue, Hu Peng did not need to take the first two exams. Like Jiang Chen, he directly participated in the autumn scientific examination.

Not long after Jiang Chen arrived at the school, he received information sent to him by Su Tingjian.

After Jiang Chen saw it, he felt like he had found a treasure.

When he was in school, he really memorized some classics.

Although he has memorized a lot, it is really not smooth for him to write articles in ancient style. Compared with Liu Huaian's writing, it is much inferior.

Originally, he was afraid that these ancient eight-legged essays would be difficult for him to control and that he would not be able to write articles with ease.

Since he studied the sample essays for previous exams, and during this period of time, he has been overcoming the difficulties in them.

It didn't take long for him to master the rules of writing these ancient style articles, and now he feels comfortable writing them again.

He was also creative and used the famous ancient Chinese articles that he had memorized before in his own articles. Surprisingly, he was able to adapt to the current situation and write these articles with great eloquence and style.

Even Liu Huaian read it and admired his writing style.He said to Jiang Chen:

"Jiang Chen, your original articles were not as good as your poems. I didn't expect that you would make such rapid progress recently. I was barely better than you in writing articles, but now you have surpassed me again. Also, I see that the views incorporated in your article are very new and advanced, and they do not fit into the original framework at all. Reading it makes people feel that the realm and pattern are suddenly opened up. I I just want to ask, how did you do it and write such a wonderful article all at once? I want to learn more from you, and I hope you will also give me some advice."

Jiang Chen smiled and took out some information sent by Su Tingjian and said to him;

"This is the review material sent to me by Master Su. Please take it and read it. I think it will be of great benefit to you."

Liu Huaian picked up the information, looked at the fonts on it, and said to Jiang Chen with a smile:

"Jiang Chen, what do you think of the writing on these documents?"

Jiang Chen said to him:

"I only read the article, but I didn't really study the fonts on it."

"Look at it now, what do you think?"

Jiang Chen took the information, looked at it carefully, and said to Liu Huaian:

"The handwriting is elegant and elegant, very beautiful. Brother Huai'an, you don't pay attention to the writing of the articles in it, but you care about the calligraphy written by others. What do you mean?"

Liu Huaian said to Jiang Chen:

"Because the font looks very familiar to me. It's very similar to my third sister's font. She probably stayed up many nights to get these information for you, so that these information can be delivered to you so quickly. It shows that she cares about you. Such true feelings.”

Jiang Chen said:

"If this is the case, you have really worked hard for her. I will thank her next time we meet."

Liu Huaian said to Jiang Chen:

"The provincial examination will be in three days. If we hadn't been lucky this time, we would have been making intense preparations. I'm really worried about my classmates. I'm afraid that some of them will be wiped out in this round. Then We have to wait another three years.”

Jiang Chen also said with emotion:

"Since ancient times, the imperial examination has been like a single-plank bridge. Some people can get ashore safely, but there will always be some people who will be eliminated. This is the living reality, and it also sounds a wake-up call to all students. You didn't find out Really? We actually have a lot of officials’ children here who come to Taixue to study just to get a level of gold without working hard at all. It’s a waste of such a good resource. It will be tested when it is really used.”

Liu Huaian said:

"The more children of officials, the more good and bad they are. They are used to being arrogant and will not study hard at all. If I become an official in the court in the future, I will definitely abandon these bad habits. If I want to enter the Imperial Academy, I must show my true spirit. Only in this way can we improve the quality of Imperial College and cultivate outstanding talents for the imperial court."

Jiang Chen looked at Liu Huaian in front of him and said:

"Do you know how many ministers in the court you will offend? You just can't pass Hu Gao. He uses the resources of the court to win over these officials and carry out benefit transfer and collusion. He doesn't care. Can you cultivate outstanding talents for the imperial court? Anyway, there are many scholars in the world, and he, the examiner, can point out whoever he wants with a stroke of his pen. If you are not pleasing to the eye, no matter how talented you are, it will be in vain if they don't join you. Like With me like this, do you think he would let me be on the list?"

Liu Huaian said to him:

"Last time in the court, His Highness the Crown Prince mentioned to the Emperor the matter of today's examiner. He suggested that the examiner should be personally appointed by the six ministers, so that outstanding talents can be selected."

Jiang Chen looked at Liu Huaian and said:

"Brother Huai'an, is this news accurate?"

Liu Huaian said to Jiang Chen:

"Since His Highness the Crown Prince proposed it, I also hope that the Emperor can agree to the Crown Prince's proposal. Prime Minister Hu has been the examiner for two consecutive terms. If he is re-elected again this year, it will indeed be a bit unreasonable. By then, all the officials in the dynasty will become him A protégé of Prime Minister Hu. When the time comes, if the court makes a decision, everyone will be on his side. I heard my father come back and said that this time the prince proposed something like this. When the emperor asked everyone When expressing their opinions, most of the officials stood on the side of Prime Minister Hu, and there were only a few people who supported His Royal Highness. This situation made even the emperor change his expression."
