Speaking of the Ming Dynasty imperial examination system, there are generally two nodes.

The first node is the Hongzhi Dynasty. Before the Hongzhi Dynasty, the imperial examination system was not stable and often changed.

However, since the Hongzhi Dynasty, the imperial examination system gradually stabilized and matured, and there have been basically minor changes in the future.

The second node is the Wanli Dynasty, and the biggest feature is that the imperial examination system is gradually collapsed.

Since the Wanli Dynasty, fraud in backdoors has even become a public phenomenon, and the imperial examination has also become a tool for party struggles.

Between the two nodes, that is, from the Hongzhi Dynasty to the Wanli Dynasty, it was the era of the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty, the most standardized system, and the era of relatively fair imperial examinations.

Correspondingly, this is also the era when civil officials were at its peak and the most famous officials appeared.

The Jiajing Dynasty was at this stage, so Qin De, who was facing the exam season, was a little distressed and felt like he was born at the wrong time.

If the system is not standardized in the morning for decades and the system is still not standardized, it will be much easier to take advantage of loopholes. If you can do it, Qin Dewei will do it better!

Or in the evening, when it was Wanli, if I met a few big shots, I would be afraid that I would not be able to pass the exam?

As mentioned above, the admission rate for the Nanzhili provincial examinations has been about 4%.

Qin Dewei also made both preparations for this. If he passed the exam, he would naturally be happy and would go to the capital to participate in next year's examination.

It’s normal if you fail the exam, why do you have to be 4% of the time?

Then I will spend three years developing commercial power along the canal. After all, I have connections in Suzhou, Yangzhou, Huai'an and Liaocheng.

Then I found a way to go to the capital again to get rid of Xu Miaoxuan.

As the provincial examination approached, Nanjing City once again gathered elite candidates from Zhili, all of Nannan, and Qinhuai Old Courtyard once again ushered in a peak business period.

During the last provincial examination, Qin Dewei was just a so-called "show" to watch the fun, but this time he was an actual participant.

Not only should we properly participate in the friendship and foster momentum, but we should also act as a landlord to fulfill our friendship, or organize literary gatherings.

In fact, Qin Dewei thinks it is not very good for this year's students.

In the last term, only those who knew Qin Dewei were famous in history, including two future top scholars Li Chunfang and Shen Kun, two future governors Zeng stepfather and Wang Shizhen's biological father.

During this election, Qin Dewei visited a lot of people and heard about them, but not many people could make me impressed.

Hu Zongxian counted one, and Wu Chengen counted one, and the others were gone, which disappointed Qin Dewei a little.

However, even though he was disappointed, Qin Dewei, as a local celebrity, tried his best to organize several events.

It is also to develop new businesses for Yuanfenghao Money House, which is not shabby!

After all, there are still many wealthy families who can afford to study these days. Therefore, most of these foreign scholars are not only rich, but also have a great demand for off-site business. They are actually potential high-quality customers.

That night, on the new building ship of Gao Changjiang's house, Qin Dewei published an official list of forty scenic spots in Jinling to dozens of guests and friends, as well as the revised and beautified names.

For example, Wuyi Lane cannot be so straightforward, it should be called "Wuyi's Evening Photo".

After Qin Dewei finished the first thirty-nine one by one, he pretended to be hesitant:

"I searched all the classics of the past dynasties and found only thirty-nine famous places. But this number was really uneven, which made me bothered for a long time.

Finally, standing on the Banqiao, I saw the pleasure boats passing by the Qinhuai River and the beautiful Wang walking along the river bank.

After that, I had an idea and made up for the last scene: Changqiao admired the girl! Do you guys think this counts?"

Everyone laughed and said, "For sure, of course! This is really romantic! So where is the beauty Wang?"

So Qin Dewei invited Wang Lianqing to entertain the new song "Good Times and Beautiful Scenery", which received a lot of applause from the boat.

With the bright lights and wine, Qin Dewei finished the social event and sat next to Wu Chengen with a little bit of alcohol, "Old Wu, why are you unhappy? Why are you so sad?"

Wu Chengen questioned: "It's only been more than half a month since the provincial examination, so why don't you calm down and prepare for the exam? Being addicted to banquets does not conform to our right path."

Qin Dewei sighed: "The local examination is a very small factor in personal efforts. Nine points depends on destiny! Since the provincial examination has not yet begun, let's have fun in time!"

At this time, some servants from somebody came up and reported: "The chief examiner's seat has arrived at Huaian Prefecture and has spread news from Huaian!"

Everyone immediately became quiet, and there was nothing bigger than the exam now.

Someone asked anxiously: "Which old man is the chief examiner?"

The servant obviously had many channels and immediately replied: "I heard that he was the lecturer Zhang Chao!"

Everyone looked at each other, and a question arose in their minds. Who is Zhang Chao? There is still this person in the Hanlin Academy?

We can't blame everyone for being ignorant, it's really because Mr. Zhang is too low-key to play.

Not to mention the scholars far away in Nanjing, many ministers have forgotten that they have such a person.

Mist grass! Only Qin Dewei's tiger body is shocked!

He never expected that the chief examiner of the provincial examination was Zhang Chao, the old pup. No, dear Mr. Zhang!

Isn’t this a cold-bench Hanlin? It hasn’t been very famous in history. Why did it be released this year to host the Nanzhili provincial examination?

You should know that the Nanzhili Provincial Examination is known as the No. 1 provincial examination in the world. Being the examiner means being able to receive high-quality students, and weight has always been the top priority.

So Qin Dewei fell into deep thought. How did Teacher Zhang, the old Hanlin who had long lost Jun En, return to the emperor's sight?

Could it be that this old Hanlin has any secrets he doesn’t know behind his back? Or is his butterfly effect changing history?

But in any case, this appointment means that the 13th Jiajing Jiajing provincial examination is the most likely one I have to pass!

At this time, everyone around them had no intention of drinking and having fun, and they were talking about it around the examiner.

Everyone wants to know the personality of the examiner first, so that after the exam, you can answer questions in a targeted manner!

Qin Dewei did not participate in the discussion. Does he still need to discuss with others about Teacher Zhang?

Even without other cheating methods, I learned from Teacher Zhang for a whole year, and there were many lecture notes from Teacher Zhang!

Therefore, we can deliberately follow the principles and principles of the scriptures taught by Teacher Zhang and write an essay on answering questions.

As the chief examiner, if Teacher Zhang can see his test paper, even if the name is sealed, he can tell whose test paper is only based on the answering ideas?

If the probability of being admitted was four percent, then it is not an exaggeration to say that it has become forty percent now, right?

Fame, fortune and wealth seem to be right in front of you!

Thinking of this, Qin Dewei suddenly felt that the beauty in front of him was no longer fragrant.
Chapter completed!
