The first title: "Wang Maozhao was a great virtue. He built the country among the people, controlled things with righteousness, controlled the heart with etiquette, and brought prosperity to the future."
It comes from "Shang Shu Zhong Hui's Gao", Gao means to sue, to tell people with words. This article was written by Zhong Hui, the wise prime minister of the Shang Dynasty. It was used to demonstrate the rationality of Shang Tang's extermination of Xia and to solve the problem that Shang Tang was most concerned about.
The problem.
The meaning of the title is that the monarch should encourage virtue, win the trust of the people, handle national affairs with morality, educate the people with etiquette, and leave wealth for future generations.
Under the guidance of Chen Xianzhang, Li Jie's skills in making ministers improved by leaps and bounds. After thinking for a moment, he raised his hand and wrote: The minister advises the emperor to show his virtue and build up the country in the world. Only by cultivating the emperor internally and externally can it be passed down to future generations.
After solving the topic, his literary thoughts came to him like a fountain. Hundreds of words jumped onto the paper and he was written in one breath. After he finished writing, he checked it and found that nothing could be changed. Li Jie smiled and nodded with satisfaction. Writing it again might not be as good as the current one.
, it can be said that the article was born in nature and was obtained by a skillful hand.
After finishing the second question on the Five Classics, the sky had already darkened. The remaining time was more than enough to finish two questions, so I simply stopped writing, got something to eat, and took a good rest after finishing writing.
Ming Dynasty imperial examination answers must be written on the manuscript paper first, and can then be transcribed into the main examination paper. Because the examination has express regulations, if a scholar does not have a draft when answering the examination paper, he will be dismissed. This regulation is mainly to prevent cheating. No matter how high the academic level is,
You will not be able to win without manuscript paper.
It is not a big problem to get the right answer based on Li Jie's four books. As for the ranking, it depends on the questions on the Five Classics. The Five Classics are graded separately. There are a total of 18 rooms in the economics room of the rural examination. When ranking, the first papers of each room are put together.
Among the top eighteen, the top five are composed of one person from each of the Five Classics, named Jingkui or Wujingkui. The final ranking will be determined after the completion of the three exams. However, according to the principle of only focusing on the first exam in admissions
, basically there will be no accidents.
When the results were released, the first place was called Jieyuan, the second place was Yayuan, the third, fourth and fifth place were called Jingkui, the sixth place was called Yakui, and the remaining students were called Juren. Although they were all Juren,
The top six are equivalent to having exclusive titles (just like the golden ID/squinting smile in some games).
In the afternoon of the next day, Li Jie finished transcribing the four questions on the Four Books and the three questions on the classics and meanings. He finally checked whether there were any errors or omissions on one side. When he saw that there were no problems, he patted the door and said to the officers and soldiers outside the door: "Hand in!"
The sound of handing in papers in the quiet examination room was heard by the officers and soldiers and the surrounding scholars who were taking the exam very clearly. Handing in papers in advance in such an important exam was equivalent to handing in papers in advance in the college entrance examination in later generations. Most of the scholars would continue to write even after they finished.
I will try my best to polish and revise my answer sheet to make it more perfect, and I will never submit it in advance.
In the eyes of most people, submitting the paper early means that you are either extremely confident in your essay, or you are giving up and have no intention of taking the exam. The curious candidates around you are looking around to see which kind of person you are.
The officers and soldiers patrolling outside unlocked the examination room and checked with Li Jie: "Are you really going to hand in the paper?"
"Yes, hand in the paper!"
After seeing Li Jie, the scholars suddenly realized.
"It's him! Little Sanyuan Lin Pingzhi, no wonder he dared to hand in the paper so early!"
When the officers and soldiers heard Li Jie's answer, they notified the examinee to come and collect the papers. In order to prevent fraud and reduce marking errors in the rural examination, the preparations before marking and the storage of the examination papers were very strict.
The test paper must first be handed over to the examiner for acceptance, and classified according to the classics of the scholar. Then the examiner will send it to the sealing office, where the sealing officer will seal it, and then it will be sent to the transcription office to organize personnel to seal it with a red pen (this is the name of Zhujuan).
(from the original volume) according to the "word count and sentences in the original volume", and finally the reading officer will read it, on the one hand, to check whether there are any omissions in the transcription; on the other hand, it is also to prevent the copying officer from engaging in malpractice.
After sealing, transcribing, and reading, the test paper reviewed by the examiner basically conforms to the format. There is neither the name of the candidate nor the mark on the paper.
After the officer who received the papers came, he asked Li Jie again: "Confirm the handover of papers? Do you not regret it?"
Li Jie said categorically: "Hand in! No regrets!"
Upon seeing this, the examiner put away Li Jie's examination paper. After sealing, transcribing, and reading it, he handed it over to the office for collection. Accompanied by the supervisor, he sent the transcribed examination paper to Jieshen Hall.
The inner curtain officers who are contacted by the outside world will wait here, and the test papers will be handed over by the sergeant. The outer curtain officers and the inner curtain officers are not allowed to hand them over in person.
After the paper is delivered to the curtain, the chief examiner goes to the hall to let the examiner check and accept it on the spot, assigns various parties to stamp it, and then sends it to each room for review according to the five classics. The same examiner will first review it, and the same examiner will hand in the selected "recommended paper"
The deputy examiner and the examiner will also prepare part of the test paper. If the deputy examiner thinks that the "recommended paper" is acceptable, he will write the word "take" on the test paper and then hand it to the chief examiner. The chief examiner will mark it with the word "中"
, the scholar was selected.
The three test papers for being selected as sergeant are jointly ranked by the supervising officer, promotion officer, and examiner together with the examiners. During the ranking, sometimes some of the test papers will be dismissed.
Select from the volume.
After the grading is completed, the examiner is generally required to search the unanswered papers again to make up for the omissions in the grading process. After all, the evaluation of articles is too subjective. It is not uncommon for others to find honey and to mine arsenic.
However, in order to avoid suspicion, the examiner did not dare to search too much for the previously discarded test papers. Most people just took a look at them, and there were not many examiners who were diligent in searching.
This is the specific process of rural examination grading. These have been perfected from generation to generation, which has greatly reduced the occurrence of imperial examination fraud and provided a guarantee for the country's fair selection of scholars.
Li Jie walked out of the examination room and looked at the silent examination room. Inspectors patrolled back and forth on the corridor from time to time. The soldiers following behind urged: "Don't look around and leave the examination room quickly!"
When I came to the dragon gate, I saw several candidates who had also submitted their papers in advance waiting in front of the dragon gate, and Lun Wenxu happened to be among them.
Seeing Li Jie coming, Lun Wenxu said: "Shenzhi, seeing you here, it seems that you are full of confidence in this provincial examination!"
Li Jie smiled slightly and replied: "To each other, each other!"
After everyone gathered, the dragon gate opened wide. Li Jie and Lun Wenxu walked out of the examination room together. The situation outside the examination room was similar to that outside the college entrance examination room. Many people were waiting outside the door, trying to take their family home as soon as possible.
When Lun Wenxu was waiting for him, he walked forward. Since Lun Wenxu came to take the exam alone, Li Jie invited him to ride in the car with him and gave him a ride.
Lun Wenxu did not refuse. He entered the carriage and said, "Shenzhi, there is something I want to ask you about. Master Liu, the imperial censor, recommended that I go to the Imperial College to study. What do you think?"
Li Jie heard this and said: "Bochou, the teacher once said that it is not difficult to pass the provincial examination with your level. If you want to take the general examination, it is best to participate in the next one. It is a good thing to study in the Imperial College. I support you to go to the Imperial College."
