The next day.
Yiying Pavilion.
It’s time for class again, and Yan Shu is giving the lecture today.
As we all know, Yan Shu writes very well in poetry, and it just so happens that the content of today's lecture is poetry and poetry.
As the class came to an end, Li Jie suddenly asked Yan Shu.
"Have you been to Qiantang, sir?"
Yan Shu was slightly surprised when he heard this question. After a while, he shook his head.
"I have never been there."
Li Jie said "Oh" softly, with a look of disappointment on his face.
"It turns out that Mr. has never been there either."
Yan Shu smiled slightly: "Life is limited. Our country covers thousands of miles. How can I see them all with the power of just one person?"
"I heard it's very prosperous there."
Li Jie said with a look of "longing" on his face: "A few days ago, I read an article that the southeast is beautiful, the three Wu cities are there, and Qiantang has been prosperous since ancient times."
"Smoke willows paint bridges, wind curtains are green, and there are hundreds of thousands of homes here and there. Clouds and trees surround the embankment and sand, raging waves roll up frost and snow, and the sky is endless. The city is lined with pearls, and the households are filled with Luoqi, competing for luxury."
After hearing this word, Yan Shu's expression changed slightly.
This is Liu Sanbian's word.
In the fourth year of Jingde, Sun He returned to the capital from Hangzhou, and this poem also spread to the capital.
At that time, as soon as this word came out, there was quite a Luoyang Zhigui attitude in Beijing.
This poem is really well written. Even people who have never been to Qiantang can still feel the prosperity of Qiantang through this poem.
As for why Sun He specifically spread this word, it is actually not difficult to guess.
Sun He and Wang Yuchen were both famous ministers at that time. They had always been on good terms, and Wang Yuchen was on good terms with Liu Sanbian's father, Liu Yi.
In addition, Sun He and Liu Yong's uncle Liu Hong were also ranked Jinshi.
With these two relationships, and the fact that Liu Sanbian was indeed talented in poetry, it was only natural that Sun He should support his younger generation.
In fact, Yan Shu felt quite sorry for Liu Sanbian.
In terms of poetic talent, Liu Sanbian is definitely the leading poet in the world.
It's a pity that success is also a poetic talent, and failure is also a poetic talent.
In the second year of Tianxi's reign, Liu Sanbian took the imperial examination for the third time, but the result was the same as the previous two times: he still failed.
In this subject, Liu Sanbian's eldest brother Liu Sanfu was on the gold list.
Perhaps out of anger or unwillingness, after failing three times, Liu Sanbian became angry and wrote a poem called "Crane Soaring to the Sky".

On the gold list, I occasionally missed the lead. The Ming Dynasty temporarily left a virtuous man, how to go? If the attempt fails, the situation will be easy, and the struggle will not be wild. Why should we discuss gains and losses? A talented poet is naturally a prime minister in white clothes.
Fireworks in the alleys, picturesque barriers according to the agreement. Fortunately, I find the right person to look for. If you want to cuddle up against the red and green, your life will be smooth and romantic. Youth is the same. Forbearance for the false reputation, instead of singing in a low voice!
As soon as this word came out, Liu Sanbian's reputation among scholars suddenly plummeted.
You, Liu San, have become noble!
You are amazing!
One moment it was "a talented poet, he is the prime minister in white clothes", and the other moment he was "bearing the false reputation and singing in a low voice instead of a shallow drink".
In your eyes, fame is not as good as having fun?
At that time, Liu Sanbian was already a world-famous poet, and every time a new word came out, it would be widely circulated.
This article is no exception.
By the time Liu Sanbian came to his senses and wanted to take it back, it was already too late.

Of course, some people can understand Liu Sanbian's mood and think that he is just complaining about not passing the test.
It is normal for students who have failed the exam to complain.
But the bad thing is that Liu Sanbian is too famous. If he complained in private, no one would care about him.
As a well-known figure and a Bianliang Internet celebrity, Liu Sanbian should not have allowed this word to be widely circulated.
Because of this poem, many people who felt sorry for Liu Sanbian changed their stance.
After that, Liu Sanbian's reputation took a turn for the worse, from a romantic and talented man to a gay libertine.
After a while, Yan Shu recovered his thoughts and said slowly.
"In the past, Cao Zijian succeeded in seven steps, and he was a talent that surpassed all generations."
"Of course, do the officials know how King Chen Si views poetry?"
Of course Li Jie knew that this was what he was waiting for, but in Yan Shu's impression, he definitely didn't know.
So, he bowed slightly.
"Please give me some advice, sir."
Yan Shu stroked his beard and said slowly: "Chen Si Wang's words and poems are not enough to praise the great righteousness and show the future life."
"Guanjia, what do you mean by this?"
Li Jie was thoughtful and pondered for a long time.
"What King Chen means is that words and poems are not enough to promote great righteousness and set an example for future generations."
"Sir, I understand!"
I understood this sentence, and Yan Shu immediately swallowed the prepared words back into his stomach.
What do the officials know?
Yan Shu wanted to ask, but he was afraid that he would ask something he shouldn't hear.
After thinking for a while, Yan Shu finally did not ask further questions.
Seeing Yan Shu hesitate to speak, Li Jie said nothing.
With the words "Ci Fu, Xiao Daoer", his purpose has been achieved.
His remarks today are just paving the way for future reform of the Jinshi academic system.
The Song Dynasty inherited the system of the Tang Dynasty and the Five Dynasties. The imperial examination included the Jinshi subject, which was juxtaposed with the Ming Jing and other subjects, among which the Jinshi subject was the most important.
The Jinshi Department is also called the 'Jiangxiang Department', because if you want to be a general or a general, you must be a Jinshi. If you are from Mingjing or Zhuke, it is difficult to get a high position.
Nowadays, the content of the Jinshi examination is roughly as follows. For Jinshi, one poem, one fu, one essay each, five essays, ten essays on "The Analects of Confucius", and ten essays on "Spring and Autumn" or "Book of Rites".
Among them, poems and poems account for the most weight in the examination.
People in later generations will know that it is definitely unreliable to select scholars based on poems and poems.
As an official, the first thing to consider should be the overall quality of the candidates, both political integrity and talent, and they should pay attention to both the test scores and the inspection results.
At the same time, we have to keep pace with the times. We are different from people who just study hard and don’t know how to adapt.
Li Jie is very dissatisfied with the current Jinshi examination system. Poems alone are not enough to test whether candidates can become officials.
Among the current imperial examinations, the Jinshi section is the most glorious. Once the candidates are named on the gold list, except for the top few who will be awarded Beijing officials, most of the Jinshi will be sent to other places to serve as local officials.
Such an official appointment system is also unreasonable.
It was also a feudal dynasty, and the imperial examination system during the Ming Dynasty was obviously more reasonable.
In particular, the Jinshi system for observing government affairs began in the 18th year of Hongwu's reign in the Ming Dynasty. When a Jinshi was admitted to the imperial examination, he would first be given lumi to observe government affairs in various departments, so that he could become proficient in the political system, and then be promoted to any position.
In addition, in the Jinshi examination, the proportion of poems and poems must be reduced, and more policy and essays should be considered.

At this time, Yan Shu had no idea that he had been tricked by Li Jie, and that the trick was very, very deep.
After all, the selection of Jinshi scholars involves the vital interests of tens of millions of scholars in the world, and even the noble clans. Any slight change will be infinitely magnified.
