The feeling of returning to the academy is undoubtedly the most pleasant. It is a bit similar to the feeling of returning home in glory.
There are still many classmates from Xiyuan, but basically they have not passed the exam. Many of those who have passed the exam have gone home.
The imperial court of the Great Zhou Dynasty was still very humane towards the Jinshi. There were still three months left until the election at the Shuji Hall after the competition. During this period, the Jinshi were on vacation in disguise, and they could take leave and go home.
Of course, this is mainly for those in the top three, while those in the second-grade will have to look at themselves.
After all, the second-level Jinshi candidates still have to take an exam in Dongge.
Although everyone knows that this exam is not decisive, and is not even as important as the ranking of the second-class Jinshi, but if you perform particularly well in the Dongge exam, you can still add a lot of opportunities to your own library selection, so for such a
If given the chance, most of the second-class Jinshi would try their best to stay and fight for a while.
For Qingtan Academy, the performance of Jinke can be described as a complete victory. The eighteen Jinshi have already overwhelmed Chongzheng Academy and Tonghui Academy, as well as Baima Academy and Chongwen Academy in Jiangnan.
Chongzheng Academy's performance this year is actually not bad. In addition to Yang Wenruo winning the top prize, they also got twelve Jinshis, and four of the twelve Jinshis were second-class Jinshis.
In comparison, Chongwen Academy and Baima Academy only had 16 and 14 Jinshi students admitted this year respectively, which still seems to be higher than Chongzheng Academy, but they are much larger than Chongzheng Academy in terms of scale, and the number of reference people is also smaller.
More.
This is the first time in many years that the northern academies and the southern academies have achieved a relatively even balance in terms of momentum. Of course, in fact, the southern academies still steadily dominate the northern one.
"Well, Zixun, Xianzheng, Xiaoke, Haiwei, Mengzhang, Keyao, and Ziying, you and the other top three students in Jinke have brought glory to our Qingtan Academy..."
Guan Yingzhen was very happy. Looking at the talents in Qingtan Academy in front of him, he felt extremely proud in his heart.
In fact, there are two others. One is Lian Guoshi, who is already the number one scholar. He does not need to participate in the selection of Shujishi Hall. He is directly awarded the Hanlin Academy to compile and write, becoming the first person to be awarded an official in this department.
There is also Han Jing. Han Jing did not perform well among the second-class Jinshi, ranking sixteenth, even behind Feng Ziying. Moreover, because of his professional teacher Tang Binyin, Han Jing did not perform well after passing the second-class Jinshi.
He voluntarily left Qingtan Academy and followed his teacher Tang Binyin.
Although Han Jing has been studying at Qingtan Academy, he seems to have always been outside Qingtan Academy.
He came to study because of the relationship between his teachers Tang Binyin and Guan Yingzhen, who were in the same year. However, in fact, Han Jing did not participate in most of the activities of Qingtan Academy in the past two years.
This also made many students in the academy very dissatisfied with him.
He himself knew this situation, so after passing the second-level Jinshi examination, he only went back to the academy once, said goodbye to the headmaster, the dean, and a few close classmates and professors, and then left gracefully.
So after Han Jing left, the academy calmly accepted this reality.
However, Guan Yingzhen did not take this matter to heart, because Han Jing himself had always maintained close contact with Tang Binyin, and was more like a nominal disciple whom Tang Binyin had placed with him.
Different ways don't work together, so he took care of her for two years in the same year, which can be regarded as his best effort.
Xu Xie was the first to kowtow, as a way of thanking his teacher for his kindness over the past few years, and the rest of the disciples followed suit and knelt down.
Guan Yingzhen and Zhou Yongchun both accepted this gift calmly. They deserved it.
As the two main people in charge of the academy, they have to arrange and deploy almost everything. Moreover, the conditions of the students in the academy are different, so they need to be guided and coached in different categories to help them improve in a targeted manner.
For example, Tongyin of Song Dynasty studied at Qingtan Academy at the age of sixteen. He studied for nine years. He didn't even pass the first subject in the autumn, and the second subject was only passed in the autumn and failed in the spring.
It can be regarded as a real Jinshi.
The communication with Shanchang Zhangyuan seems to be very easy. Now these few are already quasi-officials of the Great Zhou Dynasty. After one to two years of observing the government, they will be awarded officials.
These few are all second-level Jinshi. They start from the seventh rank, and will be promoted within three to five years. Generally, they will be promoted to the sixth rank or even from the fifth rank, which means that they will be promoted to the third rank or above.
This is the prestige of Jinshi, and it is something that other elected officials will never possess.
"Zixun doesn't need to say it. I don't think Shujishi can escape. Logically speaking, Ziying's second-level ninth place should be fine, but Ziying is a little bit special, so it's hard to say." Guan Yingzhen also said the same.
An old man who has been in the officialdom for many years is very familiar with this situation.
"First, she is too young. Although Shujishi is required to be a young talent under thirty-five years old, Ziying's age is a bit too exaggerated. As far as I know, there are so many cores in Zhou Dynasty who are under the age of eighteen.
There are basically no Shujishi. Well, maybe there will be two more in Jinke, one is Hou Xun and the other is Ziying..."
Guan Yingzhen's words made several classmates laugh, with some envy and some good-natured teasing, "Master Guan is right, Ziying's age puts us seniors to shame."
Those who pass the Jinshi examination are basically considered to have graduated from Qingtan Academy, and are no longer affiliated with Qingtan Academy, and the title of Guan Yingzhen has also been changed from Shanzhang to Guanshi.
"Brothers, you are joking. Didn't the officers and teachers just now say that being too young is also a disadvantage?" Feng Ziying was very calm.
"It may seem like a disadvantage now, but as time goes by, this age will become an advantage."
Song Tongyin was also from Shandong, and he was a fellow countryman with Feng Ziying. However, he was ten years older than Feng Ziying, but he was already considered the same age among the top two Jinshi.
"Xianzheng is right, the further we go, the more obvious the age advantage will be." Guan Yingzhen continued, "But now there is indeed some trouble, especially some people from Ge Lao and Liubu Hall Shangguan may take this as an excuse.
Because, it is deliberately nitpicking. The second thing is that everyone may know that Ziying's article has been controversial from the general examination to the palace examination. It is estimated that in the selection of the library, no matter how Ziying's Dongge examination is, some people will use it to make an issue.
.”
This is not a secret. Feng Ziying’s shortcomings in literary classics and meanings are in sharp contrast with his superior views on current policies. This is why his policies and theories caused controversy in both the National Examination and the Imperial Examination. This will inevitably continue to the common people.
The restaurant of custard is selected.
Logically speaking, the top ten in the second class are basically the natural candidates for Shujishi. It is rare that the top ten in the second class fail to enter the Shujishi. The competition usually occurs among the top ten in the second class and beyond.
It's also customary.
But since it is the rule, there are exceptions. There are still some subjects where the top ten candidates fail to be selected, but it is basically due to their own problems, such as being too old, nearly thirty-five years old, or having poor conduct.
It is good that the outside world has responded, but Feng Ziying is really the first one who may lose the election because of her young age and the controversy caused by her article.
Of course, we can only say it is possible now, but since it was Guan Yingzhen who said it, it means that the possibility is indeed quite high.
Among the second-class Jinshi, Xu Xie can basically be confirmed, while Song Tongyin and Luo Shangzhong are ranked high and can give it a try, but their hopes are not too high.
After all, compared with the Shang Ke Shu Ji Scholars, there are only sixteen places, and the Jin Ke Shi is not expected to be much different. So only the top thirty in the top two are competitive, and Song Tong Yin and Luo Shangzhong are both outside thirty, and Song Tong Yin and the third
Eighteen, Luo Shangzhong fifty-five.
As for the others being outside the top 100, the possibility is even slimmer.
Only Guan Yingzhen and Feng Ziying were left in the room.
"Ziying, you must be careful about this matter. I know that Brother Chengfeng and Brother Rujun may have some considerations and arrangements, but as far as I know, there are probably many people who do not want to be selected as Shujishi." Guan Yingzhen
Feng Ziying's words shocked her heart.
Although Guan Yingzhen and Qi Yongtai have many similar concepts and ideas, they are not from the same school. Secondly, Guan Yingzhen is from Huguang. Huguang officials also have their own faction in the court, which is similar to the so-called Jiangnan scholars.
Although the officials are all southern scholar-officials, they are still slightly different.
Qi Yongtai and Qiao Yingjia are both representatives of northern officials, one is from Beizhili and the other is from Shanxi.
Therefore, the information Guan Yingzhen could get must have come from another channel.
"Guan Shi can teach me." Feng Ziying knew that Qi Yongtai and Qiao Yingjia must be working hard for themselves, but as Guan Yingzhen said, Shujishi may not be much different from Erjia Jinshi in the eyes of the outside world, but only within the court
Only people understand the meaning of Shujishi, but many people may not be willing to see themselves become Shujishi.
Without the level of Shujishi, it will be difficult to enter the Hanlin Academy. Without the qualifications of the Hanlin Academy, you will encounter resistance from all aspects if you want to join the cabinet in the future.
This sentence that has been memorized by people is enough to make it difficult for people without Hanlin qualifications to escape.
Guan Yingzhen pondered, stood up and walked around, "The Six Ministries, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the General Affairs Department, and the Dali Temple are all able to deal with you, but among the three cabinet ministers, Shen and Fang are probably not able to do anything for you."
If I have a bad impression of you, I will definitely object. Only Ye Jinqing might be able to make a change."
Ye Jinqing is Ye Xianggao, and his nickname is Jinqing.
If all three pavilion elders objected, then Feng Ziying would not be selected as a Shujishi even if she had the support of other six ministers. Therefore, Guan Yingzhen said that it was necessary to say that one of the pavilion elders supported his selection.
"I'm afraid this requires Brother Chengfeng to come forward to see Ye Xianggao in person." Guan Yingzhen hesitated, "But Ziying also knows Brother Chengfeng's temperament. He will definitely support you, but you have to let him go where
