The second round is a fixed-format official document exam, which is not too difficult for ordinary scholars, let alone Yuzhu?
However, after the current affairs policy test questions for the third session were distributed, there were bursts of air-conditioning sounds in the examination room.
After Yuzhu read the test questions, he couldn't help but smile, everything was under control.
How should I put it, in this era of small-scale peasant economy, there are only a hundred or so types of so-called current affairs policies at best. Except for river engineering, border troubles, or horse politics, etc., it is impossible to play big new tricks. p>
Yuzhu had already made various drafts. After carefully reviewing the questions, he held the pen in his hand and finished it all in one breath.
Of the three days of exams, the third one was the most troublesome, but it was what Yuzhu was best at.
There's nothing you can do about it. If you're talented, you'll take advantage of it, hehe.
In full view of everyone, Yuzhu was the first to hand in the paper for the third consecutive day, and she stole the show.
Taking high-profile exams, keeping a low profile, and trying not to offend any of your classmates have always been Yuzhu's basic principles for life.
After three days of exams, several people gathered at Yuzhu, and everyone unanimously requested that mutton must be served to reward the aggrieved stomach.
There is not much else here in Yuzhu. Not only is there a lot of food, but it is also eclectic, with a little bit of all kinds of dishes from the north and the south.
Originally, Yu Hongtu, who was having trouble with Yuzhu, figured it out or something, and actually came with Zhang Tinglu and the others.
Everyone came, so Yuzhu naturally welcomed him very much. When Yu Hongtu was still as affectionate as before, Brother Lin kept shouting.
Zhang Tinglu saw Yuzhu's free and easy performance, and couldn't help but secretly nod. She is only fifteen years old, but she has such a big heart. This classmate is not wrong.
Yu Hongtu thought he would be ridiculed, and he was mentally prepared for it. Unexpectedly, Yuzhu still treated him as before, as affectionate as a brother.
In this cannibalistic society, the most important thing is to be a good person before doing things. If people can't do things well, they can't do things well!
Understanding everything in the world is knowledge, and experience in human relationships is writing. This is a great virtue!
Hu Fenghui is a more trouble-making guy than Yuzhu. With his presence at the banquet, the atmosphere suddenly became more than three times more lively?
Yuzhu looked at Hu Fenghui, who had made up a short joke to make everyone laugh, and couldn't help but smile. Zhao Donghe, a charming person, is quite similar to Hu Fenghui.
Five days later, the results of the monthly exam came out. Zhang Tinglu came in first, Yu Hongtu came in second, and even Wu Sidao came in 18th.
What is shocking is that Yuzhu only ranked fifth from the bottom.
According to the academy's old rules, the person ranked first from the bottom will be directly demoted to Class B. Those ranked second to fifth from the bottom will each have to support the academy with one hundred taels of silver.
It’s okay if you don’t pay. Please leave the academy and help yourself.
Well, Yuzhu thought to himself, the punishment is real money and silver, which is the most painful thing.
This Jiuhua Academy is said to be a resort that helps scholars gain fame. In fact, there are ruthless tricks to make money everywhere.
"How could this happen?" Zhang Tinglu is really concerned about Yuzhu's ranking. Based on his understanding of Yuzhu's level, no matter what, he can't be fifth from the bottom, right?
Wu Sidao sneered: "Maybe Mr. Qin thought that Yuzhu handed in the paper too early, so he did it on purpose, right?"
Yu Hongtu thought about it carefully and said, "I'm afraid the academy is short of money and spent it?"
Yuzhu understood what was going on. However, he deliberately pretended to be confused and said nothing.
From the first year of Shunzhi to the forty-fourth year of Kangxi, the Qing Dynasty has been a country for more than a century.
However, the current overall social atmosphere is still very subtle.
In Sijiu City, the bannermen looked down upon the Han officials, and the bannermen had the upper hand.
When it comes to Jiangnan, the situation is reversed. Except for the officials' children who have already entered the Qing Dynasty, the Jiangnan students among the people generally look down on the bannermen.
If a Bannerman comes out on top in the monthly examination, the first thing everyone will think of is that Jiuhua Academy wants to flatter the Bannerman.
In this way, how can Jiuhua Academy expand enrollment for scholars from Jiangnan in the future?
If Jiuhua College wants to continue to develop and grow, it cannot do without the strong support of Jiangnan Shilin.
Under the pressure of real public opinion and student resources, no matter how talented Yuzhu is, the academy's monthly exams will only fail him.
Yuzhu sighed secretly in his heart. Before, he couldn't understand why Kangxi wanted to develop melons and melons in the south of the Yangtze River, a land of great wealth. Now, after putting himself in his shoes, he suddenly understood.
Among the scholars in Jiangnan, public opinion is generally unfavorable to the Tatars!
In fact, this kind of public opinion atmosphere among the people is completely understandable to Yuzhu.
Ten days in Yangzhou, one day in Jiangning, one day in Xuzhou, two days in Zhenjiang, and one day each in Suzhou and Hangzhou.
Although most of the bad things were done by the original Ming army who surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, this debt can still be attributed to the Taqing army.
The Tatar army has done so many bad things. How could Jiangnan Shilin, who controls public opinion in the south, have a good opinion of the Tatar army?
Qingfeng is illiterate, so why bother flipping through books?
Dai Mingshi's "Nanshan Collection" case actually originated from a misunderstanding that was not beautiful.
The first place in the examination in the 48th year of Kangxi's reign, that is, Huiyuan, was none other than Dai Mingshi.
At that time, scholars generally believed that Dai Mingshi would naturally become the number one scholar in the modern sciences.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Zhaoxiong, the son of Zhao Shenqiao, the imperial censor of Zuodu of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, became the top scholar in the palace examination.
Since the No. 1 pick was beyond everyone's expectation, scholars in the south of the Yangtze River couldn't help but talk about it, thinking that it was the result of secret manipulation by the powerful Zhao Shenqiao.
To be fair, the matter of his own son becoming the number one scholar has nothing to do with Zhao Shenqiao.
According to the practice of the palace examination, after the examiners listed the top ten papers, Kangxi almost always made changes to varying degrees.
If a disciple of the emperor is benevolent, he must be left to his own discretion.
For example, the first place in the first class had an unpleasant name, and the third place in the pavilion was not pleasing to the eye, which were probably the reasons why Kangxi disliked it.
Moreover, according to the regulations on avoiding suspicion in scientific examinations, if his own son participates in the palace examination, Zhao Shenqiao cannot be one of the examiners of the palace examination.
However, public opinion can kill.
Zhao Shenqiao's statement of bullying others was publicly exposed and plastered all over the streets and alleys of Forty-Nine City, causing a huge commotion.
Zhao Shenqiao, who was originally a very upright official with excellent personal ethics, instantly became a stink on the streets.
Later, Zhao Shenqiao used "Nanshan Collection" to frame Dai Mingshi, but he actually wanted to use Kangxi's hand to express Yixue's hatred!
Who was Kangxi? He could see through Zhao Shenqiao's evil intentions at a glance.
It happened that Jiangnan Shilin was never of the same mind as the Qing Dynasty, so Kangxi followed the trend and expanded the scope of the attack, taking advantage of the situation to kill a large number of leaders of Jiangnan Shilin.
Now, Yuzhu's monthly exam score is fifth from the bottom, which is exactly the concrete manifestation of Jiangnan Shilin's hatred of the banner people.
"No, I'm going to find Master Qin to reason with." Wu Sidao started to leave, but Yu Zhu raised his hand to stop him.
Wu Sidao slept in all day and even got the 18th place in the exam. Yuzhu, who was more than five times more diligent than him, actually ended up fifth from the bottom. This is simply unbearable.
Yuzhu said with a smile: "I took the Shuntian Prefecture rural examination, not the Jiangnan rural examination. I don't care about the academy's monthly examination ranking."
Zhang Tinglu can understand the overtones of Yuzhu. As long as she learns the true skills of passing the imperial examination and passing the imperial examination, there is no need to worry about the academy's monthly examination ranking.
Don't look at Zhang Tinglu's father, Zhang Ying, who was a scholar of Wenhua Palace and the Minister of Etiquette. Because he served in the Qing court, he had never been a leading scholar leader among the scholars in Jiangnan.< /p>
In this sense, even though Zhang Tinglu was not a bannerman, she was still secretly excluded by Jiangnan Shilin.
This is also the fundamental reason why Zhang Tinglu is willing to have a good relationship with Yuzhu.
Hu Fenghui was thinking in his mind, how much benefit could he get if he helped Yuzhu get out of this bad mood?
When we only ask about our position and not about right and wrong, it is completely unreasonable.
Yuzhu didn't intend to go to Qin Benchu to argue. It would be in vain to argue, so it would be better not to argue.
The Academy dared to determine the rankings like this, obviously not afraid of Yuzhu's trouble. If there was a quarrel, there would be only one result: Yuzhu would be kicked out.
