Chapter 522
Because he created a new light as a princess, Zhu Ma did not make any difference in some reforms, leaving some people with opportunities to change and adapt.
She wanted to take action on the imperial examination system, and had previously announced to scholars all over the world through the Daming Pao that the provincial examinations that would be reformed in August this year.
Among them, the provincial examinations are divided into liberal arts and science subjects, and some examination contents for the Four Books and Five Classics are retained in the liberal arts subjects, which is to leave a way out for the old scholars.
In this examination in February, the system has basically not changed, and it is a way for Zhu Ma to leave for the old juren.
It’s just that this road can only be taken once.
When the next examination is held, the examination system and content will be changed accordingly according to the reform of the provincial examination.
However, even if the system of the imperial examination does not change, Zhu Ma can pass the imperial examination and the palace examination to select talents that are useful for the development of the Ming Dynasty.
Therefore, not only all officials attached great importance to this examination, but also to Zhu Mai...
This examination will be held on the 9th day of the second month to the fifteenth day of February this year, as usual.
Because it was held in spring, it is also called the Spring Examination.
Although it was still in the first lunar month and there was still one month before the Spring Examination, many scholars from afar had arrived in Nanjing, either staying at the homes of relatives and friends, staying in inns, and some had houses in Nanjing.
As for those who are poor and destitute, they can only live in Buddhist temples and dilapidated temples, they do not exist at all.
After all, Juren was already a real privileged class in the Ming Dynasty, so there was no one who was short of money.
Even if you have no land and no house, as long as you say that you are willing to be a teacher for a certain child, a large number of people will immediately rush to hire and give money.
Hongyun Inn.
A group of old and young scholars walked in, followed by three book children.
The old man in his fifties and the young man following him were all dressed in typical literati styles.
But another young man and his book boy were slightly sturdy, with sharp eyes and slightly dark skin. They wore a sword instead of a sword on their waist. If they weren't wearing a Confucian shirt, they would look more like a warrior.
The most eye-catching thing is that the strong book boy also carries a big bow and a pot of arrows.
The waiter in the inn, although the shopkeeper was a little surprised when he saw this, he was not worried about anything.
As far as they know, the Ming Dynasty court now cannot help but swords, but if anyone carries a spear, bow and arrow into the city, he must report it. As for cannons, muskets, crossbows, and armor are all forbidden objects and are not allowed by ordinary people unless the court allows it.
Today is the tenth day of the first lunar month. Although Hongyun Inn was one of the most popular inns for scholars to attend the provincial examination in Nanjing in previous years, it is now an imperial examination, and the number of students taking the exam is far less than that of scholars, so Hongyun Inn is still far from full.
The waiter stepped forward and asked enthusiastically: "How many customers are good at playing or staying in a hotel?"
The old man in charge said: "Of course, you need three rooms in a hotel, each with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room with a room
After saying that, the old man had to pay the deposit at the counter.
The brawny young man said: "How can Mr. Lu'an spend money? It's better for me to do it myself."
The price of this Hongyun Inn is expensive. Now it happens to be the Nanjing Examination, and the price has risen again, so the old man did not insist.
The two groups immediately paid a deposit of one month, and then followed the waiter to choose a room in the backyard. Since it was a room, it would naturally not be a noisy place on the street, but in a quieter place behind it.
The waiter was leading the way in front and suddenly changed into Ningbo dialect and said, "Are all the three masters from Ningbo? The youngest are from Ningbo."

He was anxious and wished he could abandon his pen and join the army immediately and rush to the southwest to quell the rebellion for the court.
But he knew that as a juren, the starting point was too low, and the effect he could play was limited when he went to the southwest.
If you want to better serve the country and realize your ambitions, you must pass the current Jinshi exam.
'If I pass the Jinshi, I will definitely enter the Ministry of Justice. In the future, it will be the Ming Dynasty to completely quell the troubles in the southwest!' Zhang Huangyan, who is still young and does not know the difficulties of the world, can't help but think like this when he looked at the newspaper.
At this time, Wan Tai next to him suddenly sighed and said, "It is a good thing for the imperial court to implement three years of compulsory education, so why do you have to include girls? This is too shocking!"
Zhang Huangyan happened to read a lot of contents of the military sector, and heard this and turned to the front political sector.
I saw that the political sector talked about several major events.
First, the first railway of the Ming Dynasty, the Beijing-Tianjin Railway, officially started construction on the fifth day of the first lunar month. It is expected to be completed within half a year and will be opened for operation.
Secondly, the examination will be held as scheduled on the ninth day of the second month, and the examination system and content will not change.
Third, it is to implement "three-year compulsory primary school education" in Yingtian Prefecture, Shuntian Prefecture and Chengdu Prefecture.
The article has the longest report on "three years of compulsory primary school education".
It not only explains the specific content of the policy, but also explains why the court did this and its related prospects for the future.
After reading this passage, Zhang Huangyan also frowned slightly.
The idea of a girl entering school and even the court liberating the power of women was indeed beyond his expectations, and even challenging his previous views.
But if this policy is really beneficial to the development and strength of the Ming Dynasty, then we should support the court's policies.
Thinking of this, he said to Wan Tai: "Mr. Lu'an, I think what Liu Shuying said is very reasonable. If I can liberate a woman's wisdom and strength, I will not talk about talent in the Ming Dynasty. If the manpower is doubled, it will be half, which is also very beneficial to the country.
Besides, we all know that wealthy families will teach women to learn to read and understand. Now the court is just giving girls from ordinary people in the three palaces a three-year chance to study. What's wrong?"
When Wan Tai heard this, he fell into deep thought.
