Early the next morning, a list was posted outside the gate of the Imperial College, displaying the names and scores of the top 92 in the exam.The highest score for this admission is 78 and the lowest score is [-].

Candidates who came to take the exam yesterday came to see the list one after another. Some were very happy, while others were downcast.

After these candidates went back, both their family members and colleagues in the Yamen were very curious.Among them, an official from Qintianjian learned that his colleague had only scored more than 70 points in the exam, and he ridiculed him so much.

The warden couldn't bear the anger, so he went directly to Chu Ci, asking to buy a sample paper and go back to make it for the colleague.

Chu Ci printed more copies at the beginning, so that someone would want to keep a copy, and immediately sold it to this person at twice the price he bought it for.

After this person took the test paper back to Qin Tianjian, everyone gathered around to read the questions.After finishing a few ridicule questions, he apologized directly to the warden.

This incident also happened in other yamen, and the people who were brazen were directly slapped in the face by the difficulty of the test paper.The difficulty setting ratio of Chu Ci is six to four, and most people can get about sixty points, but it is a bit difficult to go up.

There were too many people coming to the door, so Chu Ci sold the remaining dozens of test papers in that teahouse, and took the two coins he wanted for one piece by himself.

The interview time was on June [-]th. Chu Ci asked several questions, and everyone had the same questions.These interviewees entered with great satisfaction, and then came out in a daze.

"May I ask how you explain the word Master?"

"May I ask what conditions you think you should have to be a good teacher."

"How do you discipline your students when they don't obey you?"

They thought Chu Ci would let them write poems and make a fuss on the spot, but who knew that it was just these three questions.And when it came to the last question, he would give various examples, and he stopped when others were stunned.

Since when was it so difficult to be a teacher?Isn't being a teacher just teaching them to read, write and write, and the rest of the time is just sitting around drinking tea.

Chu Ci and the two doctors spent a day interviewing the more than 50 candidates. During the interview, in addition to the three questions, Chu Ci also added some psychological questions. From their answers You can probably know some of their personality traits.

After discussing with the two doctors, Chu Ci removed all the irritable and cold-tempered ones, and the remaining ones were basically mild-tempered but well-measured people who would not be led by the nose by the students.Although they still have some shortcomings, it should be good to adjust them.

The 15 people who were left behind were very happy. Some of them were teaching in academies outside, and some were doing unnecessary things in other yamen. Among them, the highest grade was only Zhengbapin.

In fact, this is considered good, after all, the number one scholar in the imperial examination was only a sixth-rank official at the beginning.After arriving at the Guozijian, they will start by learning to be upright.Although it is only the eighth rank, the treatment is much better than where they stayed before.

"Chu first welcomes you to join on behalf of everyone in the Imperial Academy. Please bring your resume or recruitment documents to the Ministry of Officials for stamping tomorrow morning. Then the Imperial Academy will send someone to cooperate with you. Also, at the beginning of tomorrow afternoon, Please come to the Imperial College, everyone."

"Yes." These new wives are very obedient.

After Chu Ci sent them away, he realized that the Imperial College was much quieter than usual.

"Forget it, I can't even remember tomorrow is the rest day." Chu Ci shook his head with a smile.

"Your Excellency is conscientious and conscientious, he is indeed a role model for my generation."

Chu Ci raised his eyebrows and looked at He Ping, as if he was asking when did your kid learn to flatter?

He Ping smiled: "I follow you every day, my lord, and I have to learn something no matter what."

Chu Ci was originally smiling, but then his face froze, I'm going, is this kid saying that he learned how to flatter?

……

"Your majesty is wise, thanks to the support of the emperor and the great help of all the adults, I was able to recruit fifteen talents. With their participation, I believe that the Imperial College will become better than before."

The [-]th was the great court, and Chu Ci stood in the main hall and reported the situation to the emperor.

"Chu Siye's recruitment exam has made a lot of noise, and now the streets and alleys are discussing it. I also heard that Chu Siye has made some [-]-point test papers, and specific numbers can be used to evaluate people's studies. I don't know. Is it true?" The person who asked the question was Mr. Zhang, a scholar of the Palace of Preserving Harmony.

"It's true, the main thing is that everyone has their own preferences in articles and poems. It would be unfair to choose according to my own preferences. It's better to come up with some fixed titles to show fairness." Chu Ci replied solemnly.

"So that's how it is. This method is wonderful." The old man stroked his beard and nodded.

"Thank you for your praise, my lord. I will give you an exam paper later, so that you can check it carefully. By the way, your majesty, all the students from the Imperial College attended the competition and wrote many articles after the competition. .We selected a few good ones and printed them into a book. Now that the book has been brought back, I present a copy for His Majesty."

"Oh? Submit it, and I will definitely read it when I have free time." The emperor said.I don't know if it's because Chu Ci talked too much about the students of the Imperial College, the emperor also paid more attention to them.

Chu Ci presented the book, and then retreated outside the hall.Many officials outside the hall cast envious and jealous eyes on Chu Ci. They are also sixth-rank officials, so why is there such a big gap in being an official?

After going down to court, Chu Ci hurried out of the palace gate, and then ordered Zhang Hu to bring over the books he had prepared before, and then he was like a person posting small advertisements on the street, who would put a book in each person's hand when he came out.

"Lord Zhao, please stay! Xiaguan Chuci has met you. Here is a collection of essays for you. I hope you will not be disgusted."

"I accept it, thank you Chu Siye for giving the book to Zhao."

"My lord, the reason why the lower officials stopped you was not all because of the gift of books. I also wanted to chat with my lord about the matter of borrowing personnel from the Ministry of War to the Imperial College. I wonder if my lord is free?" Chu Ci asked.

"Borrower from the Ministry of War?" Mr. Zhao repeated, and suddenly remembered that Chu Ci had mentioned it before the emperor during the Chang Dynasty last time.

"I still have important matters to attend to. If it is convenient for Chu Siye, why not come to the Ministry of War tomorrow morning, and then discuss it slowly."

"Thank you, my lord, it's just..."

"Just what?" Mr. Zhao usually dealt with military generals, and his temperament was relatively straightforward. Seeing Chu Ci's speech hesitating, he couldn't help frowning.

"It's just that it's difficult to enter the Ministry of War. When I went there last time, I didn't even step in the gate. It can be seen that the lord governs well, and even the concierge is different from other people. Therefore, Chu Ci dared to ask the lord to give it to him." A token, so that the subordinates can enter the Ministry of War to discuss with the adults."

Hearing this, Shangshu of the Ministry of War's face darkened. He smiled and said to Chu Ci: "Don't worry about Chu Siye. Come back tomorrow. I guarantee that no one will stop you." He flicked his sleeves and left.

Chu Ci ignored his emotions, since his goal had been achieved anyway.He stood outside the gate and continued to distribute books to the officials who came out.

……

"Chu Siye, you are back."

When Chuci returned to Wenxingfang at noon, he found a person standing in front of his door. After a closer look, he realized that it was the owner of the Xijiang Guild Hall.

"I don't know what you want to do with Chu?"

"Several letters from your family were delivered this morning. The villain was afraid of delaying your affairs, Chu Siye, so I waited here early in the morning."

"Thank you!" Chu Ci couldn't hide the joy in his heart, and after seeing off the principal, he couldn't wait to return to his room with the letter in his arms.

The first thing he opened was Master Qin's letter, and he really wanted to know what his husband thought of the plaque.
