Chapter 339: The Imperial List That Shocked the World
"Who knows what happened?"
Many people thought that something big had happened, or even that a foreign enemy had invaded.
But after coming out, I found that things were completely different from what I thought.
Only then did the restless heart in his chest calm down, and he started asking questions one after another.
"A happy event... a happy event... a huge happy event, there is a way out for studying..."
There were naturally literate people in the crowd. After reading the contents of the imperial list, they all raised their arms and shouted.
"You should tell me what's written on it!"
Many people who are illiterate naturally don't know why this guy is so excited, and their own curiosity is running wild.
"Quiet, let me tell you what is on the imperial list, because the number of students who came to take the scientific examination this year is several times that of previous years. Even if the imperial court relaxed its policy and increased the number of admissions, the majority of students will still be admitted.
Many students failed the exams and even cut off their studies."
"Therefore, Yu Shinan, the minister of the Ministry of Rites, and Mu Jiuge, the chief minister of the Shangshu Province, jointly submitted a petition to Your Majesty to seek another way out for the vast number of students in the world, and to fully believe that studying can change their destiny."
The common people who read out the imperial list said proudly that in the past, people like them who were literate and literate were in the eyes of many common people, they were worthless and poor.
But the content on the current emperor's list is enough to explain everything. Reading can change your destiny, it's just that you are born at the wrong time.
"Why does Mu Jiuge sound so familiar? Does anyone know what he does?"
A group of people had a look of confusion in their eyes, as if they were racking their brains to recall where they had heard this name.
"The name of this year's new top scorer is Mu Jiuge. Did he create the content on the imperial list?"
"As expected of the number one scholar, his abilities are beyond the reach of ordinary people like us."
…
With the reminder from the first person, everyone also knew who the real owner of this name was, and started to brag about it.
After all, many people went to the home of the No. 1 doctor to congratulate him and received some wedding money.
Now that something like this happened, it was certainly worthy of their bragging.
"Stop arguing, I haven't read out the important content on the imperial list yet. Aren't you curious?"
Listening to the increasingly unreliable remarks of the common people, the literate common people sneered and shouted again.
"Damn it, at this time, you, a little monkey, still dare to show off your skills and ask for a beating, right?"
At first, everyone thought that the content on the imperial list was mainly to mention the name of the number one scholar, but they did not expect that there would be such a follow-up.
Isn't it intentional to make them feel uncomfortable by being so showy? A few of the bad-tempered ones started cursing directly.
"The main point of the imperial list is that this year's Imperial College will introduce new policies, completely subvert the traditional teaching plan, and propose three channels for entering the Imperial College to study."
"The first type is that the descendants and close relatives of officials who are in the fourth rank of the current dynasty, or even above the fourth rank, can directly go to the Imperial College to study."
"The second option is to pay a certain admission fee and you can study in the Imperial College. Of course, you need to bear the cost of dining in the Imperial College by yourself."
Just after reading this, many people in the crowd had smiles on their faces.
Nowadays, the Tang Dynasty is peaceful and the people are at peace. After a short period of recuperation, the people's lives are becoming increasingly prosperous.
Many people already have extra money on hand, and now they can spend money to send their children to study in the Imperial College. Even if it means selling iron, he will send his children there.
I have no chance to study in this life, but I definitely don’t want my children to live as hard as me.
The number one scholar, Mu Jiuge, is a good example. He came from a poor family and was extremely talented.
I don't expect my son to be as capable as the No. 1 Scholar in the future, as long as he can provide food and clothing and live a comfortable life.
Especially in the Imperial College, there are many children of the royal family and nobles studying there. If his children can be appreciated by them and become their followers, his life will be easier than his life.
It is true that those wealthy businessmen who do business have a different mentality. Academic performance is not important. What is important is that as long as they spend money, their children can go to school.
Although there is no limit on the number of places on the imperial list, the earlier you know about this, the better it will be for you.
Many people couldn't wait for the next content, so they turned around and left, asking others to make connections and get a spot first.
"The last category is students who failed in the scientific examination and have excellent grades. They can also go to the Imperial College to study."
"The most important thing is that for these students with excellent academic performance, the Imperial College has relaxed the policy even more. As long as their grades are good, their tuition fees, food and accommodation expenses will be reduced or exempted, and even the fees can be completely waived..."
After the third content was read out, the whole audience went completely crazy.
For those poor people with no family background or background, this is the sound of nature.
Students from poor families finally have a way out. Everyone knows that the Imperial College is a shortcut to an official career.
In the past, as long as one could enter the Imperial College to study, the worst he could do was become a scholar.
What's more, any student who can come to take the scientific examination will naturally have a certain cultural background.
As long as you can study in the Imperial College, receive careful education from real masters, and take the scientific examination next year, your chances will naturally be greater.
For these poor students, who have studied hard for many years, the only way to get ahead is to pass the scientific examination, then embark on an official career and completely escape the fate of poverty.
The reason why so many students failed this year does not mean that the students are incompetent. It can only mean that there are too many outstanding talents.
Or perhaps due to pressure, many students fail to show their true abilities.
Often some students who fail are not lacking in knowledge, but because they have a bad mentality.
Now that the Imperial College has launched this new policy, even if these poor students fail, as long as they do not give up, they will still have the opportunity to create a future after entering the Imperial College for further studies.
There is no need to return home in pain, and there is no need to face the village elders shamelessly. A defeat is nothing, as long as the fighting spirit is still there.
Moreover, they did not believe that the doctors and teaching assistants in the Imperial College could not compare to the teachers in private schools.
For students from poor families in the world, this is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime event, a feat that has never been done before.
There is no shortage of money between rich businessmen and the children of powerful people, so there is no possibility of competition at all.
Everyone can predict that the final limit on the number of students admitted to the Imperial College will inevitably be determined by students from poor families.
Adopt an omitted system, and the eliminated students will leave without other options. The reality is so cruel.
