Chapter 0307 The new routine of imperial examinations
At this moment, in the Tai Chi Hall, Li Erzheng and a group of new writers were discussing some issues.
"Your Majesty, I have learned something about the imperial examination system during the Sui Dynasty.
It is reported that the imperial examination system has not yet started, and all the test questions have been leaked and known to the group of high-ranking official disciples.
Nowadays, our country, the Tang Dynasty, continues the imperial examination system of the Sui Dynasty, and the ministers are worried that if the examination questions are leaked.
It will cause a serious blow to the reputation of the court and your Majesty."
Your Majesty established the imperial examination system in order to select talents and conduct them openly throughout the world.
The so-called imperial examination system, which talks about fairness and justice, has spread throughout the hearts of all people in the world.
Especially those disciples from poor families, as well as some disciples from ordinary people's families, all want to jump to the Dragon Gate.
What would it be like if I were informed after the exam that, in fact, the papers had been known to others before the exam?
So Your Majesty, you must take this matter into consideration!
Hearing what they said, Li Er burst out laughing!
"Hahahaha. Everyone, I have already considered what you said, Xuancheng."
"His Majesty."
Li Er arranged the task.
From tomorrow on, you and others will stay in the side hall of the palace.
During this period, I will clear out all the people in the side hall.
Only those of you who are doing the exams are left, and I will personally arrange for all the meals to be delivered for you to eat and drink.
During this period, you will send someone to tell me everything that happened inside, including everything you need.
No one inside is allowed to come into contact with anyone else outside.
Even if someone's father or mother dies, they are not allowed to go home to attend the funeral until the exam is over.
The officers and soldiers assigned by me are all closely watched by me. Whenever there is any suspicious person coming or going, they will be executed directly.
In addition to these, personnel are dispatched to patrol the side hall.
Even a bird is not allowed to fly into the side hall. If it sees it, it will be killed without mercy.
All people are under unified management, accommodation, and meals. Even when they go to the toilet, someone must watch.
Don't even think about taking a shower. Just be patient and the time will pass quickly.
In this way, if there are really thoughtful people inside who want to take the test questions out, but after they are actually taken out, the exam has been completed, so what if they are taken out?
Li Er was very confident that this was a matter of the imperial examination system that he had prepared following the advice of his wise brother.
If there is such a luxurious lineup and such powerful methods, this question can be leaked.
I might as well stop being the emperor. I really don't deserve the trust of the people in the world.
When everyone heard that His Majesty had used such methods to take the imperial examination, they secretly sighed.
Your Majesty is Your Majesty, this method is too powerful.
Now that we have such magical means, I really admire it.
"It's just your Majesty, if there is a minister in the family during this period, and his parents died of illness at home, if he can't let people fulfill their filial piety, wouldn't it be appropriate for both emotion and reason?"
Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety cannot be balanced. Wei Chen suggested that before sending someone to deal with the matter, you should discuss this matter with all the ministers in advance.
If you can accept it, you can participate in this topic.
If you can't accept it, there's no need to force it.
After all, participating in the imperial examination this time is for me, the Tang Dynasty, and for my students all over the world. If it is delayed because of such a trivial matter at home, it will be a bit bad.
"Xuancheng, in this case, I will leave this matter to you.
Remember, I will not force anyone."
"This is Your Majesty. I obey your orders."
Li Er's next words were not told to anyone.
I accepted my fate by taking the exam this time, and I am also one of the very culturally powerful people in the court.
If they are these people, some of them choose to quit voluntarily because they cannot accept their conditions.
From then on, they waited to be gradually marginalized.
Although I say that I won't be angry on the surface, secretly I am really angry, and the consequences are very serious.
"Your Majesty is Holy Ming."
"Let's handle things according to these requirements."
After the officials left, Li Er felt that the imperial examination system held for the first time in the Tang Dynasty this year would be a complete success.
At that time, all the talents in the world will be used by my court.
The next morning, during the morning court, all the ministers arranged by His Majesty went to the side hall to wait.
Wei Zheng stated all the requirements for this imperial examination.
After hearing what His Majesty said, everyone did not expect that the imperial examination would be so strict?
The question-writing methods they know are still stuck in the Sui Dynasty period.
However, His Majesty is different and has created a new process for the first time.
Fortunately, these people from the Imperial College have all stayed here, but the other ministers are quite confused.
"Master Wei, can you please let me go back, explain the matter first, and arrange things by the way?"
These people are highly educated and have close relations with the clan.
Who would have thought that such a plan would suddenly come up halfway, giving them no time to think about it.
In this way, the news cannot be spread at all, so how can they carry out their plan?
Wei Zheng glanced at him and snorted coldly.
"If any of you wants to go back to do errands, you can go back now."
"Thank you, Mr. Wei."
"After I go back, I won't come back."
The few people who were about to get up and leave stopped immediately, and their faces turned ugly.
this?
"Hahahahaha, let's not leave now.
Since His Majesty trusts us so much, of course we must handle all matters for His Majesty.
What else to go?
Not leaving, not leaving.
That’s it, that’s it, what else are you going to do?”
Hearing what they said, Wei Zheng smiled.
Then people were sent to surround the side hall layer by layer.
From today onwards, I will stay in this side hall until the end of the imperial examination.
Since then, this side hall has been listed as a forbidden area in the entire palace.
No matter who you are, no matter what your identity is, if you dare to approach at will, you will be killed without mercy.
"Hey, what's going on?"
Logically speaking, they should have returned from the palace. What's wrong with the lack of movement from them these days?
After these people disappeared in the court that day, as of today, no trace of them has been found.
Everyone was confused for a while.
What happened?
Logically speaking, these people should have returned a long time ago, but why has it been two days and there is no trace of them at all?
Someone was sent to their respective mansions in person to conduct inquiries.
According to the servants in the house, their master also did not appear again after that day.
I also asked the lady at home and got the exact information.
The court had already sent people to pass the news over, and all the masters they were working on were staying in the palace to prepare the test papers for the exam.
It is said that no one is allowed to come out until the test papers are out.
Although they, as a group of people, could not understand what the news coming from the court meant.
But they understand the general meaning.
That is the adults in their respective families, working in the palace.
After hearing what they said, everyone's expressions became very unhappy.
Why do you feel that this imperial examination is different from the method used in the Sui Dynasty?
It's a bit too much for the clan, but for Li Er, this is also a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for publicity.
The matter was publicized with great fanfare, so that all students in the Tang Dynasty would know about it.
This time Datang selects talents in a fair and impartial manner.
When this news spread, students inside and outside Chang'an City were excited.
Everyone is writing very hard, trying to meet the deadline.
If the scientific examination is over and you can enter the court, it will be regarded as a glorious ancestor.
But other children from wealthy families sneered at him.
Don't look at your own moral character. Even if you can enter the court, you won't be able to achieve anything great without the support of your family. This chapter has been completed!
