This is how Zhang Zijun completed the first article of his first game. This article is the key to whether he can win the election. As long as he doesn't make mistakes, he can write whatever he wants and it won't be taken seriously.

The first part is about the Three Principles of Classics and Meanings, so let’s move on to the second question, “Ask the question “Confucius said””. That’s gone. Then what Confucius said should be “spoken on behalf of the saints”.

To break the title, "A common man can be a teacher for all generations, and one word can be a law for the world." The first sentence breaks the word "zi", and the second sentence breaks the word "yue". It's so ingenious, oh yeah!

The next step was to go to bed. First, I ate an egg, which was prepared by the maid Yaqin. Then I took the exam the next day, and there was still an unfinished eight-part essay.

The next day, Zhang Zijun was so proud that he stood up, stretched, ate a piece of pancake, opened the stainless steel thermos, poured out a capful of water and took a sip. The water was still very hot, and he saw that there was another question,

"The passing of time is like a man, not giving up day and night. " This is from the "The Analects of Confucius. Zihan", which means that the passing time is like this flowing water, day and night will not stop.

Although Zhang Zijun has cheating methods, after years of practice, the ordinary eight-legged essay is still written in a decent way. Then break the topic, soldiers will block it, water will flood the soil, who is afraid of whom? Break the topic, "A gentleman should be

If you learn with water, you will be able to determine your heart and virtue."

This exam lasted for three days from morning to evening. The candidates in the examination room lit candles and the stars were dotted. It was time to close the papers. Some candidates had already handed over their answer sheets (Jimo papers) first.

Then the examiner will affix the names, and then the candidates will greet the second and third sessions.

Repeat the same process after the first session. Finally, the candidates go home, and then the copying officer will transcribe the ink scroll into a red scroll and serialize it. After proofreading by the reading officer, the ink scroll will be handed over to the examination paper official for sealing, and the ink scroll will be sent to

The examiner will be the chief examiner and will be reviewed by the same examiner. The examiner will ultimately decide the ranking.

After the red scrolls and ink scrolls of those admitted according to the process are verified correctly, a list will be published. Those who are on the list are called Juren in Chinese style. They are considered to be qualified to serve as officials with "merit" and can participate in the competition held in the capital the next year.

The first place in the examination. The first place in the provincial examination is called "Jie Yuan". After nine days and seven nights of fighting, some candidates have reached the state of exhaustion. Many people staggered out of the examination room. Don't think that they were drunk.

You can't drink alcohol.

I heard that some people died in the exam. During the nine days and seven nights of the exam, the candidates answered questions and had room and board in the dormitories. There was a toilet at the end of each row of dormitories. Anyone who went to the toilet could not talk and could only use

There are words on the front and back of the sign. One side says "Enter Jing" and the other side says "Out of Gong". Nowadays, many elderly people still use "Out of Gong" to refer to going to the toilet, which comes from the imperial examination.

Because the weather is very hot in autumn, hot during the day and cool at night, candidates live and eat in small dormitories. Therefore, candidates often fall ill due to heatstroke, food poisoning leads to accidental death, and some are hidden in dormitories.

He was bitten to death by poisonous snakes, scorpions, and centipedes on the eaves of his house. Such a way of death is indeed very unlucky.

For Zhang Zijun, it would be too false if he was not tired. He is now nineteen years old, when he is full of vitality, and his life experience is already middle-aged, so he looks stable and practical in appearance. In the past few years, in the Ming Dynasty

Isn't it too much of a failure to live just enough to have enough food? But the path chosen is the most difficult. You are lucky enough to compete with the ancients for food in the imperial examination. If you don't fight, it will be difficult to survive in such a society.

If you can be a normal person, you will either be exploited or treated like a pig or dog.

When the scientific examination results were released in mid-August, there were a total of 135 quota candidates for the Shuntian Prefecture Township Examination. Among the more than 1,800 candidates, naturally some were happy and some were sad.

The list was originally released, but it has not been released because there are two people among the most miserable failed scholars who have special status. One is named Wang Lun and the other is called Chen Ying.

Their fathers are both extraordinary. Chen Ying's father, Chen Xun, and Wang Lun's father, Wang Wen, were both great bachelors and prime minister-level figures in the dynasty. Their children were both the best of their family, and both of them had high hopes for their sons.

The name of the meeting was lost in Sun Mountain, so it was very angry and angry.

Ah, ah, ah, at this time Yao Xi was in Zhang Zijun's study and said with excitement: "Why hasn't the results been released for so long? It was the two great scholars at that time, Chen Xun and Wang Wen, who were saying that there was cheating in the examination. Dear brother, do you still remember that?

Was there a poetry meeting? At that time, Wang Lun, a scholar in Jinyi, and the other one, Chen Ying, failed this time. The two fathers jumped out at the same time and asked for a re-examination of the paper, cursing the examiners for being pigs! Will they be reviewed? Immediately

Emperor Shangshu wants justice. "

Zhang Zijun was dumbfounded when he heard that there was such an operation? Made, having a father like this is awesome.

Looking at their names, Chen Xuguan was appointed Shaobao, Crown Prince Tutor, Minister of the Ministry of Finance, Bachelor of Huagaidian and Bachelor of Wenyuan Pavilion, and the first minister of the cabinet; and Wang Wen was not bad either, Shaobao, Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs,

He is also a bachelor of Jinshen Palace.

Tsk tsk! In the early to mid-Ming Dynasty when the Three Dukes (Taishi, Taifu, and Taibao) were not easily awarded titles, the Three Gus (Youngshi, Shaofu, and Shaobao) were already at the top of the civil service, and with the blessing of the cabinet minister's status,

The examiner of the rural examination asked you if you were afraid of getting into trouble with such a big boss for no reason.

However, there is also a skill in reporting someone to the emperor. Given their status, it cannot be said that my son failed in the provincial examination, so the examiner is trash? It is too low-priced, and it will only attract criticism from scholars.

.

So Chen Xun took the lead, with Wang Wen accompanying him, to jointly impeach the Shuntian Prefecture rural examination examiners for committing adultery during the examination, and requested the emperor to issue an order to correct the problem.

There was a very humane measure in the imperial examinations of the Ming Dynasty, that is, students who studied foreign languages ​​in the Siyi Hall (don’t laugh, they really learned foreign languages, all kinds of Fanwen, and foreign languages) were also allowed to take part in the provincial examinations, and since they specialized in Fan

Fearing that the writing would not be refined in Confucianism, the imperial court authorized the writings of the candidates from the three examinations of the Siyi Hall to be specially sent to the Hanlin Academy, where they would be reviewed by the Hanlin Academy and the best ones would be selected.

What does the Siyi Pavilion do? This place is very important. Without this place, the coming of all nations to court would not be possible, and foreign envoys would not be able to be received.

If I want to make it clearer: the Siyi Museum is a place that specializes in translating the languages ​​of neighboring countries. According to the current term, it is a translation agency. Because I had no experience when I first started working, three things happened in the library.

Funny things that make you laugh or cry.

In order to allow the students of the Siyi Museum to better learn foreign languages, the official in charge of the Siyi Museum, Taichang Shaoqing, specially invited a teacher from Siam to teach the students to learn Siamese. After half a year of high school

Through intensive training, students communicate with teachers in Siamese every day, and everyone feels that their Siamese has improved by leaps and bounds.

On this day, several envoys who spoke about Siam came to the palace. Zhu Di ordered people to go to the Siyi Pavilion to select two translators who were "proficient" in Siamese. However, after the envoys only spoke a few words, the two

The translator was dumbfounded. Did the messenger speak Siamese? Why couldn't they understand it?

In fact, the envoy spoke authentic Siamese. There was something wrong with the Siamese teacher who taught the Siyi Hall. When he taught the students, he had a strong Siamese accent. As a result, the students could only

They could not understand Siamese with dialects, the official Siamese, but they couldn't understand it. This was really a big joke. Fortunately, Zhu Di's translators did not open their mouths. If they had to say this, they would not make the envoy laugh.

Big teeth.

The teacher who teaches Burmese in Siyi Hall is an old man invited from Burma. He is not only proficient in the native language, but also very familiar with Chinese culture. In class that day, the students began to read a poem in Burmese: "One Line"

I say goodbye to you on the meandering Mekong River. The uncertain weather is just like my depressed mood. I hope you have a smooth journey and a better and brighter future."

The old gentleman who taught Burmese was angry. He translated the Burmese poems into Chinese poems in class: "The autumn wind on the river bank is good for farewell. The sun will be cloudy and the rain will be clear. The horse's hooves are far away from thousands of mountains, and the clouds on the sand road will see the sun.

." When he finished translating the ancient poem, the students in the class were stunned for a while, and then burst into warm applause.

Talent, what is talent? This is called practical talent at home and abroad! This old gentleman used practical actions to tell the students that this is how translation is a bowl of rice!

Later, a Tatar course was added to the Siyi Museum. After more than a dozen students learned Tatar, the emperor ordered the Siyi Museum to translate the medicinal prescriptions in the Tatar "Horse Sutra".

The emperor believed that the Tatars were best at raising horses, so their "Horse Book" should be very unique. Sure enough, in the Tatar "Horse Book", there are many kinds of medicines, such as one that can treat horses.

The prescription for typhoid fever and cold consists of the following 7 kinds of medicines: 30g each of Terminalia Chebula, hawthorn, Soupazadirachta, Tibetan wood incense, dried ginger, Polygonum sibiricum and the herb Rubus chinensis and taken in decoction, 2 doses per day.

However, when horses in the Ming Dynasty drank this medicine, they became languid and had no effect at all. When the emperor learned of the situation, he thought that the students' translation skills were not good enough, so he deducted three months of their salaries.

When the Tatar envoy came to visit, the emperor specially took out the translated "Ma Sutra" and asked the envoy what was wrong. After reading it, the envoy laughed out loud. In fact, the prescription was not wrong, because the "Ma Sutra"

"The reason why the core medical skills need to be kept secret is that the key to treating horse diseases is not written. After the horse drinks the medicine, it must be allowed to run, so that the medicine can have the greatest effect.

This time, two students from the Siyi Hall were admitted to the Shuntianfu Provincial Examination. One of them was actually admitted by the Hanlin Academy, but after they were sent back to the examination room, the examiner actually dismissed them both, contrary to the old system. Ordinarily,

This is not a big deal. The rule that students from the Siyi Hall can take the exam is from the Yongle period. It has evolved to this day. Who really takes it seriously? But Chen Xun and Wang Wen, the two cabinet bachelors,

However, he made an article about it and bluntly said that the examiners even rejected the articles that were accepted by the Hanlin Academy, which illustrates a serious problem, that is, the process of reviewing articles in this provincial examination was not careful.

Didn’t the examination papers of thousands of other people also follow the public’s instructions and distinguish right from wrong? Since there is a problem in the provincial examination, is there nothing wrong with asking the emperor to issue an order to investigate?

Taking advantage of a topic, muddying the waters, and then taking advantage of the opportunity to achieve one's personal goals is really a clever method. It seems that those who can join the cabinet and worship the prime minister are not fuel-efficient lamps.

This was a big enough label. If there was any cheating, it would frighten Liu Yan, the examiner. Huang Jian hurriedly submitted his own statement and took out the oath he made when he presided over the provincial examination. If he cheated for personal reasons, he would be tortured and his descendants would be extinct.

!Ruthless enough.

Although Chen Xun and Wang Wen were clever in their methods, Emperor Jingtai did not want the situation to escalate at all, not to mention there was no concrete evidence. If there was a case of examination fraud, it would be embarrassing.

So Emperor Jingtai replied calmly: "Although the examiners are ruthless and cruel, they are not good at their work and have violated the old system. But the matter has come to this, so please forgive me for the time being."

It turns out that the ingenious arrangements made by the two great bachelors Chen Xun and Wang Wen were of no use. They were just flirting with a blind man, and it was all in vain.

The two bachelors were in the prime minister's position. They were used to the storms and were not discouraged. They went to court again on August 28, and this time their words were extremely harsh.

The two of them recounted the cases of imperial examination malpractices in Hongwu and Yongle dynasties. Taizu and Taizong punished them harshly. Some examiners and number one candidates even lost their lives. The punishments were not unsevere. Because of this, the atmosphere in the examination room was solemn. But what happens now?

, it is not uncommon to find filth in the examination hall, receiving stolen goods and selling exam questions, drinking and lying down, and criticizing people at will without distinguishing between good and evil. How can we select talents for the country in this way?

After explaining the truth, the two of them stopped hiding each other. Wang Wen directly expressed angrily that his son's test questions had been specially read and he would definitely win according to the level. However, the examiners Liu, Huang and others only reviewed it.

The three test papers in the first session and the other two tests were judged without even reading them carefully. It was simply too hasty.

Wang Wen requested that following the old practice of the Hongwu Dynasty, the examination papers of Wang Lun and Chen Ying and the examination papers of the 135 successful candidates should be compiled by the Ministry of Rites and the Hanlin Academy, and the six subjects and thirteen subjects should be re-examined.

Chen Xun was also reluctant to criticize the examination questions given by the examiner. He violated taboos, ridiculed the court, and asked the examiners to be severely punished.

The two bachelors in the cabinet were now showing off their horses and horses with a menacing attitude. Emperor Jingtai could no longer take it lightly, so he ordered Gao Gu, another bachelor in the cabinet, to take the lead and work with the Ministry of Rites and the Hanlin Academy to re-evaluate the examination papers.

After re-examination by Gao Gu and others, they found that among the selected candidates, there were some who were better than Ying Lun, some who were equal, and some who were even worse. Only the sixth place, Lin Ting, had no comment on his Zhujuan, but this should be due to negligence. There was no comment.

Private evil.

Moreover, Gao Gu was very dissatisfied with Chen Xun and Wang Wen's approach. He felt that Wang Lun and Chen Ying were only between desirable and undesirable. Moreover, it was already criticized that the minister's children and poor scholars were rushing to meet each other. They were not satisfied with their righteous destiny and actually wanted to

It is really outrageous to use this to accuse the examiners. He is very contemptuous of the two bachelors. It is so shameless. Emperor Jingtai was in a dilemma. In order to have both sides, he specially ordered Wang Lun and Chen Ying to be elected.
