Soon, the hot pot was finished, and the day was over.Looking up at the dark night sky, Xiong Yan left and returned to the Hou Mansion.After the age of twelve, the prince cannot stay in the palace overnight unless there are special circumstances.The night was very peaceful, and the next day Xiong Yan woke up, and after taking care of the chores, he went directly to a palace in the palace.This is the place where the scholars of the Hallym Academy work.It is also the place where the princes and daughters of the royal palace were educated.Of course, in addition to the princes and princesses, there are also some eunuchs and palace maids trained within the court, who are also educated here.More than ninety percent of the eunuchs of the inner court made their fortunes here.Since childhood, he has received the same education as the princes, and those outstanding internal officials, one by one, are not inferior to ordinary scholars.The personal maids of the princes were also educated and selected here.Of course, when the prince and the princess listen to the class, they can be lazy, they can not care, they can sleep lazily or something.And the little eunuchs and little palace maids didn't dare to do this.Most of them are serious, but even so, they don't have the right to ask questions.In other words, they observe words and looks, and only dare to ask questions when the Hanlin scholars are happy.Today, Xiong Yan booked the Jinshi course in advance.This kind of course is an advanced course, and even if it is a prince, you have to pay money.Of course, as a prince, there are privileges, and you only need to pay a symbolic fee.For example, now, Xiong Yan took out 10,000 taels of silver, and he could enjoy up to 20 days of Jinshi education.Moreover, there are still three Hanlin bachelors, who take turns to go into battle and talk about the Jinshi course.This kind of lineup, for such a long time, if you are in the outside world, at least 100,000 taels of silver, and you still have to have connections.If you have money alone, Hanlin Scholars, who is you!"
Jinshi, Your Highness, are you going to be admitted to Jinshi so soon?
Soon, I remember that Your Highness, you have only been out of the palace for three or four years, right?
”A certain bachelor surnamed Zhang, who had taught Xiong Yan, asked directly."
It's been four years since I left the palace, and I'm lucky, I've already passed the exam, so I naturally have to make some preparations for Jinshi.""
Well, that's true.Then I'll talk about it in general first, this Jinshi exam. ”"The Jinshi examination, when it was in the previous dynasty, was an examination every three years.At the beginning, there were two exams, one was to get out of the top 300, and the second was to select Jinshi among the top 300. ”"It's just that then the rules changed.No matter how many people there are, as long as they can enter the temple examination, all of them are jinshi. ”Zhang Hanlin paused when he said this.Hearing this, Xiong Yan nodded.He knew that.A long, long time ago, there was a scholar who entered the top 300, but failed in the palace examination.Under the frustration, the whole person fell into despair, and there was a direct reaction.What's more important is that the rebellion set off by this scholar was very large in scale and had a great impact, although the later court tried its best to suppress it, but it also hurt the foundation, and it was over not long after.So, from then on, the court knew about the anger of the scholars!
As a result, there is a rule for not losing the palace examination.As long as you can enter the temple to test, you will be given a jinshi!"
The territory of this dynasty is extremely vast, with more than 20 provinces and more than 200 states, which is at least several times broader than that of the previous dynasty.Therefore, the requirements for the number of officials are much more, and even the frequency of the Jinshi exam is much higher. ”"Except for Enko, which appears from time to time because of some major events, the regular Jinshi exam, once a year, is mostly set in the autumn.Occasionally, there are spring events, but they are relatively rare. ”"Normally, every time you take the Jinshi exam, the imperial court takes the top 300 as Jinshi.And the candidates who participate in the Jinshi exam, guess how many there are every year?
”Zhang Hanlin said with a smile."
Well, under normal circumstances, the number of people admitted in each state each year ranges from dozens to 100.There are more than 200 states in Dachu, so the number of new people born every year is as high as tens of thousands. ”"Well, I guess, 100,000 people?
Together, 100,000 people?
”Hearing this, Zhang Hanlin nodded with satisfaction: "Sometimes it's tens of thousands, sometimes it's more than 100,000 people, but on average, it can be regarded as about 100,000 people." ”"Among the 100,000 candidates, about 20% are new candidates in recent years.The remaining eighty percent are all old candidates, and they are not admitted to the Jinshi once or twice. ”What is the probability of taking 300 out of 100,000 people?
Three thousandths!
On average, out of 1,000 lifters, there are only three jinshi!
And every person who lifts people is killed from more than 10,000 talents!"
Telling you this is to make you feel that Jinshi is not as simple as you think.and the difficulty of the previous talent test and the lifting test, it is completely two levels!
”"In Da Chu, it is very simple to be admitted to the Tong Sheng, you only need to be literate, write, familiar with the Six Classics of the Imperial Examination, the key part of the Great Chu Law, and master the addition and subtraction within a hundred.""
The test for Xiucai is also very simple, you only need to familiarize yourself with all the laws of Dachu and memorize the Six Classics of the Imperial Examination.Oh, by the way, arithmetic is more demanding. ”"It's not difficult to take the exam.All you need to do is memorize millions of words of the Great Chu Law, familiarize yourself with the history of this dynasty, and simply understand the major events that took place in it. ”Speaking of this, Zhang Hanlin's expression changed, and he became serious directly."
But Jinshi is completely different.As a jinshi, you must be proficient in the history of Dachu, the famous edicts issued by Dachu over the years, and objectively understand the merits ......and demerits of dozens of emperors, hundreds of outstanding courtiers, and thousands of civil and military generals of Dachu.On this day, Zhang Hanlin did not tell Xiong Yan too much about study skills or test-taking skills, but introduced the Jinshi exam in detail.To be honest, lying in bed at night, recalling the introduction of the day, Xiong Yan was quite satisfied with today's harvest.It's another day of fulfillment and another day of harvest.The next day, a Hanlin was replaced, and this Hanlin explained to Xiong Yan the rules on the surface of the Jinshi exam, as well as the various unspoken rules underneath, and some hidden requirements.On the third day, a new Hanlin came, who directly told Xiong Yan how to study and how to take the imperial examination, which was almost a formal lecture.Day 4............
Soon, the time came to the nineteenth day.On this day, the three Hanlin scholars all came."
Your Highness, I have talked so much earlier, and I don't know how you have gained, today we will test it, this is the Jinshi test paper in recent years.By the way, Your Highness, you haven't seen it in advance, have you?
”"Nope.""
So, let's get started!"
