Winter is over and spring is in full bloom.
Yang Wuhui had a neither good nor bad year in Bianjing, and the imperial examination was about to come.
The imperial examination is extremely important. It is a key hurdle for ordinary students to succeed.
As for Mr. Yao Yue, there was no news about him later.
It’s just that many people went to worship Mr. Yaoyue.
For these people, they are not even willing to improvise, they are more willing to believe in metaphysics.
And some people from the school also went to pay homage to Mr. Yao Yue, and Yang Wuhui knew this.
So how did you pray?
That is to write down your wish, then write your name, then buy a lantern and put the lantern into the Bianliang River.
No one is willing to let Mr. Yao Yue see his wish.
But for a while, the lantern sellers made a lot of money, and many people believed that the lantern sellers were actually the initiators of sending leaflets.
It's outrageous, but understandable.
On the day of the imperial examination, there was a slight drizzle in the sky. Yang Wuhui looked at it and felt that all this seemed to indicate something bad.
The imperial examination lasted for three days, and the test was naturally on the Four Books and Five Classics.
Of course, this does not mean filling in the blanks in the test. As long as you have read the Four Books and Five Classics thoroughly, you can easily pass the test.
So what is being tested? It is actually the understanding of the Four Books and Five Classics, including making policy decisions.
The strategy has not been announced yet, and Yang Wuhui does not know it yet.
During the three days of the examination, the candidates for the imperial examination were not allowed to leave, and they had to stay in the examination room for eating and sleeping.
Yang Wuhui naturally did the same, and he brought three days' worth of dry food with him.
It's just that the weather is slightly cold. After all, it's just spring. He was thinking about whether a heater would be prepared for candidates for exams like the imperial examination. But it turned out that he was overthinking it, and the people in the examination room had no intention of preparing an oven.
Maybe in their eyes, this is a hardship on their minds.
Yang Wuhui can withstand such coldness, and he is still queuing at this moment.
The examiner in charge of the exam is Lan Youzhi.
Lan Youzhi glanced at Yang Wuhui, and then shouted expressionlessly: "Yang Wuhui!"
Yang Wuhui replied: "The students are here!"
"Enter now!"
Yang Wuhui nodded: "Yes!"
When the roll call was called, Yang Wuhui took the first step and got his seat for the exam. As for where Jing Wei went, Yang Wuhui didn't know because it was disrupted and it was impossible for people in the same place to be next to each other. People in the imperial court would not do such stupid things.
Yang Wuhui found his seat and began to close his eyes and rest his mind. The exam was not about to begin at this time, and even though Yang Wuhui closed his eyes and rested his mind, he had to admit that it was indeed a bit cold.
Yang Wuhui didn't prepare the Four Treasures of the Study until just before the exam started.
For him, many people will be nervous about this exam, but he will not. He feels that it is inevitable that he will pass the exam, that is, whether he can come out on top.
After all, as a disciple of Bao Gong and the number one student in Luzhou, Yang Wuhui thought that he would go smoothly in taking the imperial examination.
When the seats were full of people, the exam officially began.
The first test was to test the meaning of two classics and the meaning of the four books.
What does it mean? It means to examine the candidates’ understanding of the meaning of the scriptures.
The so-called meaning of the classics is to randomly select a passage from the Four Books and Five Classics, and then ask you what it means, and this explanation must be able to be written into an argumentative essay.
This was not too difficult for Yang Wuhui, so he started writing confidently.
As for the second session, there is a trial discussion and five judgments, one for Zhao, Hao, Biao and Internal Medicine.
To put it simply, it depends on whether you can write official documents.
As for the third session, it is a thesis.
This time, the proposition paper is a bit interesting. It adopts Mencius' theory, which states that the king should be taken lightly, the people should be the first, and the country should be secondary.
If the first day is about basics, the second day is about whether you have the ability to be an official, and the third day is about what kind of official you want to be.
Yang Wuhui finally understood the purpose of the ancient imperial examinations. The first round tests whether you have talent and learning, the second round tests whether you are suitable for being an official, and the third round tests whether you are a follower of people, so the content of the examination, Not only talent, but also character.
After all, in the third round of the exam, you can write that the king is more important than Mount Tai.
The people are at ease, but the king can control the people.
The most important thing about the country is the most important thing.
After all, not all emperors felt that they controlled the world to seek welfare for the people.
During the three-day exam, people were already starting to leave.
The first person to leave turned out to be Zhao Tianliang.
Naturally, he left the scene with confidence, making everyone's eyes turn to him.
Yang Wuhui was a little hard to understand, he seemed very confident.
In this regard, Yang Wuhui only felt that he was overconfident.
Zhao Tianliang has some talent and learning. He can understand it even if others don't understand it.
So Zhao Tianliang did all these messy things just to attract attention.
When Yang Wuhui stopped writing, there were still many people in the examination room, and he didn't stay too long. Although it had cleared up since yesterday, the sultry temperature still made him feel sticky. He wanted to I can take a shower when I get back.
When Yang Wuhui left, Jing Wei followed immediately and left with Yang Wuhui.
Outside the examination room, Zhan Yirong was waiting for Yang Wuhui. Seeing that he came out with Jing Wei, he also greeted him.
After the three of them met, Zhan Yirong smiled and asked Yang Wuhui, "How is it? Can you pass the exam?"
Yang Wuhui replied: "It's not too difficult, there shouldn't be much of a problem!"
Jing Wei touched his forehead and sighed: "I didn't do well on the first day of the exam, and I was a mess on the rest. It depends on whether the policy theory can impress the examiner. I need others to lift me up, otherwise I will not take the exam this year." There’s hope.”
Yang Wuhui said: "It doesn't matter, come back in three years!"
At this moment, both Zhan Yirong and Jing Wei looked at Yang Wuhui strangely.
Jing Wei said: "Three years is too long. I plan to stay in the capital for another year and continue the exam at this time next year!"
Yang Wuhui then remembered that the current imperial examination is not once every three years, maybe once a year, maybe once every two years. Anyway, starting next year, His Majesty will think that the imperial examination is too frequent and it is not good, so It will be changed to once every three years.
As for whether reforming the imperial examination would be better, in Yang Wuhui's opinion, it is quite good.
Taking exams too frequently is actually a frequent blow to many people.
So it is better to settle down and wait until you feel you have settled enough before taking the exam again. This way, your chances will be greater.
Yang Wuhui could remember that in his previous life, he failed to take the college entrance examination. He missed the college entrance examination by three points in the first test, twenty points in the second test, and forty-eight points in the third test.
Therefore, frequent exams are extremely stressful and not advisable.
ps: The results are not good, so I will change it to a single update.
