Li Meiting's actions just now were a bit strange, and Sun Dan didn't dare to be careless about the future home trial.

After a little searching for the information in my mind, I realized that the Wang Yuanzheng mentioned by Mr. Li was an editor of the Hanlin Academy of this dynasty.

The Hanlin Academy is just a fifth-rank yamen, but its status is special. It is in charge of imperial edicts, history books, literary affairs, examination systems, detailed documents, and prepared emperor consultants. It is the think tank of the emperor. Many cabinet ministers are from the Hanlin Academy. Therefore, although the Hanlin Academy is not of high rank, it is a famous and noble place.

An editor of the Hanlin Academy ran to Jinan, and this incident itself was unusual.

Sun Dan came to the ignorant Sun family schoolchildren. He didn't know how smart he was. After thinking a little, he found something wrong. He didn't care about Sun Gui's anger, so he bowed and went straight to the door of the room where Li Meiting lived, knocked on the door: "Mr. Li, student Sun Dan asked for a meeting."

"It's Sun Dan, come in quickly." Li Meiting was not asleep yet, and she liked this student, so Sun Dan entered the house.

After Sun Dan finished his tribute and sat down again, Mr. Li asked, "What are you doing when you come to me?"

"Mr. Jin was in a bad mood just now, and he was about to take the examination for the mansion. But when the teacher just came back from the mansion, he said that Wang Hanlin suddenly came to Jinan. The students were determined to get a good exam, and they were worried and couldn't help but come over to consult." Sun Dan answered carefully.

"What a genius boy who can learn from one example and even see this. Not bad, not bad." Mr. Li smiled: "You are one of the students I like, so you will naturally know these things. Just sit down and listen to me. This Wang Yuanzheng is the academic and political examination for Shandong Academy of Sciences today."

Sun Dan was a little surprised: "I would like to ask you, isn't the academic and government education in Shandong Academy Examination dedicated to the Shandong Academy of Sciences?"

"The provincial level academic and government is not permanent, but is sent to the central government." Mr. Li spoke slowly and said these words.

The academic government is the abbreviation of the admiral and academic government officials, responsible for the assessment of scholars in each province. Although scholars are not a big deal, once they pass the scholar, they are qualified to participate in the provincial examination. Moreover, the school children who have obtained scholar qualifications have officially become "scholars". They do not kneel down when they meet officials and are exempted from the privilege of receiving corvee taxes. As long as they pass the scholar, even if they squeeze into the backbone of society, they are the ruling class of the Ming Empire.

It is precisely because the identity of a scholar is so important that in order to prevent someone from cheating, the country does not set up academic officials, in order to prevent collusion between academic officials and local forces.

Therefore, it was not until the Boys' Examination that the Central Committee was able to select personnel from the Hanlin Academy, and the Inspectorate Office had to select personnel from various departments to hold this position for a short period of time.

Academic administrators are usually appointed before the college entrance examination or competition, and will return to Beijing to pay their lives after the exam is over.

The tasks of each term of the academic administrator are also very simple: admissions and assessments of the past.

The admission of students means preside over the college examination, which is the last boy examination that Sun Dan and others participated in. The academic government sets the questions and organizes people to review and admission. In the assessment, the students are to let past scholars take the exam alone to determine whether they can obtain or maintain the qualification of "school students". Those who have poor grades will even be punished by "Qingyi" or "fashe". They are not allowed to wear scholars' "spoken shirts" and wear "blue" sidebar clothes, or they will not be allowed to study in the original state, county, and government schools. You should know that the top scholars are required to get state wages.

After listening to Mr. Li explaining the allusion of the school administration, Sun Dan had a further understanding of the examination system of the Ming Dynasty. He asked again: "Teacher, if the students can pass the examination successfully this time, they will take the examination in Jinan in May. It is understandable that Lord Xuezheng came to Shandong from the capital to arrange examination affairs more than a month in advance and assess past students by the way."

"With me here, you guys should have no problem passing the Mansion Examination." Li Meiting said confidently.

The difficulty of the prefecture exam is not much worse than that of the county exam. The test is the ability of school children to memorize by rote. Moreover, the person who sets the questions and invigilates the exam is also the prefect of Jinan Prefecture. This person has an old age with the Sun family, and the Sun family has sent people to do it on weekdays. Among the thirteen Sun family members in this period, it should not be difficult to pass seven or eight of them. The difficult one is the level of the college exam.

Mr. Li naturally did not make it convenient for Mr. Li to talk to Sun Tan about these small actions.

As Li Meiting himself said before, the identity of a scholar is really important, and the state attaches great importance to the examination. Not only does the examiners sent from the central government, the examination papers are also used in the name-based system, and people are also sent to copy the test papers, which can be said to minimize human factors.

Li Meiting said: "If you don't have confidence in trying to pass the mansion for a while, it will be useless for me to teach you for so long."

Sun Dan curled his lips unknown. It took more than a month for such a long time. To be honest, he really didn't learn anything from him. He said verbally: "Sir, the lesson is right, and students are also concerned about it."

Li Meiting frowned and said, "Your dim sum is understandable. Not to mention the government examination, it is simple. What I really worry about is the hospital examination. Wang Yuanzheng came to Jinan early this time and did a little past what he did."

"What's wrong? What's wrong? What's wrong with the first level of the hospital examination?" Sun Dan hurriedly opened his ears.

"Yeah." Mr. Li nodded heavily and explained that under normal circumstances, academic officials must conduct two rounds of inspections during their three-year term, namely one round of annual examinations and academic examinations. However, the actual implementation process also involves many cases of examinations and re-examinations. The specific reasons may come from a variety of reasons, such as wars, difficulties in personnel arrangements or difficulties in the distance, etc., which leads to a lack of employment and examinations in academic examinations. Therefore, the examination period is generally not fixed.

"In normal years, the college entrance examination will be scheduled at the end of May. After we finish this exam, we have two months to prepare for our homework.

The teacher has already found someone to collect the questions Wang Yuan was asking for internships in various places. He is preparing to carefully study them and estimate the scope of his questions and personal preferences in the subject. In order to meet his preferences, he will set a range of answers for you. It’s a pity..."

"What a pity?"

Li Meiting said angrily: "It's a pity that when Ziyuan stayed in Yangzhou for a long time today, he refused to return north. The memorials and procedures from the cabinet were piled up like mountains, and the Hanlin Academy also had to help handle official duties. Wang Yuan was eager to finish the examination for Shandong's admission to the college as soon as possible, so he advanced the examination period to April 1st, and a government examination and two college examinations were held together."

Sun Danyi said that the examination period for the government examination is March 25th. After the exam, it will take five days from the exam to the issuance of the exam. After the exam is released on the 30th and the number of students who will participate in the college examination is determined, there is only one day left for the school entrance examination. In other words, the school entrance examination qualified for the college examination has only one day to prepare for the exam.

Sun Dan: "Is this a bit ridiculous?"

"Why isn't it!" Li Meiting slapped the table: "There is any kind of emperor, and there are any kind of ministers. Today, it is absurd, and Wang Yuanzheng is also making trouble..." Perhaps because he felt that it was a bit too much to talk about the emperor behind his back, Mr. Li closed his mouth at the right time.

Seeing that Mr. Li was in a bad mood, Sun Dan advised: "Sir, the tight examination period for the Academy of Sciences is certainly not a good thing for my Sun family's schoolchildren. But it is the same for other schoolchildren in the mansion, and there is no time to prepare for the exam. In other words, no matter how tight the time is, even if the exam is time, it will still be possible. If the preparation time is not enough, no matter how long the exam is, it will be defeated."

"Yes, why didn't I figure this out?" Mr. Li thought about it and immediately became happy: "Although I'm asking people to figure out Wang Yuanzheng's previous test papers everywhere, others may not have the intention. Now, everyone has no time to prepare and get a discount. I am familiar with Jinan Mansion and have a relationship with Wang Yuanzheng. Find an opportunity to learn about Wang Yuanzheng nearby and see if I can smell some smell from him."

He stood up from the chair: "No matter how late, I will write a letter immediately to ask someone to send it back to Zouping overnight and let Sun Yue come to Jinan."

A large family is quick to do things, especially when encountering major events.

After Mr. Li finished writing the letter, a servant immediately took the letter back to Zouping by boat overnight.

When the next evening, when Sun Dan was basking in the sun in the yard, he heard a woman screaming: "What a Sun Dan, other school children are reviewing their homework. You are the only one who is lazy here. Are you embarrassed?"

Sun Dan looked up in shock and saw a group of people walking in at the door. Sun Yue was the leader, followed by Jiang Ruoying, who was making faces.

Sun Dan hurriedly asked her why she was here and if she was seasick.

Jiang Ruoying stuck out her tongue: "How could I be seasick? I am from Suzhou!"

"Haha, I forgot that you are a woman from the water town of Jiangnan. People from northern China ride horses and southern China ride boats, so they will naturally not be seasick." Seeing the smile on Jiang Ruoying's face, Sun Dan was in a very good mood.

After asking a few more questions, Sun Dan realized that Li Meiting's urgent letter had arrived in Zouping early in the morning.

Hong Fu of the mansion and Mrs. Liu, the second wife, discussed it for a while, and felt that this was a big deal and was not careless, so he immediately asked Sun Yue to pack up his clothes and set off. Jiang Ruoying was a little girl who was not afraid of heaven and earth. She actually moved Sun Yue and came to Jinan with him quietly.

The people of the Sun family also felt that this examination was of great importance. Moreover, the Sun family had the habit of going to Jinan to take summer vacations every summer. So they stayed in Jinan a few months in advance. So the whole family was preparing their luggage and preparing to move to Jinan.

It is the seventh day of the third lunar month, and there are still twenty-three days before the palace examination and twenty-eight days before the hospital examination.

During this period, school children from various prefectures in Shandong continued to gather in Jinan, and finally reached two thousand.

Sun Dan didn't worry about the mansion examination. After all, there was a public relations job in the Sun family. Among the thirteen schoolchildren, he had no problem with seven or eight of them.

The problem lies in the level of the college entrance examination. According to the news that Mr. Li came back from inquiry, Jinan Prefecture has obtained ten eight scholars in the college entrance examination today, and the competition is very fierce. I don’t know how many people in the Sun family will win in the end.

Five days later, the ladies, young masters, boys and maids from the Sun family all arrived in Jinan by boat. There were a huge crowd of about 200 people, which made the huge Tongle Courtyard crowd. I thought the Tongle Courtyard was very big, but I thought it was too small.

This is the first time Sun Dan sees all kinds of people in the Sun family. He sighs in his heart that this family is really big!

This time, the Sun family and his family came to Jinan for vacation. The silver was spread like flowing water. In a few days, they used more than a thousand taels of money. The daily necessities of each room, the consumption of repairing the house, and the maintenance of living facilities were all astronomical figures.

If you are poor and rich, you will have to spend money if you don’t move.

After spending so much money, it was just for the Sun family to be able to produce a scholar this time. Even just for Sun Yue to pass the exam. In fact, the Sun family also believes that only Sun Le can pass the exam this year. The others are here to accompany the exam and warm up.

Even so, being able to take a vacation in Jinan is also a grand festival for the women living deep in the boudoir.

It was only after they looked at their food, clothing and food, which opened their eyes.
