"I just don't know what to say."
In the Royal Palace of Lunucheng, among the students who were immersed in writing test papers, someone suddenly started shouting, "What is the meaning of such questions?"
Because there are so many students registering for the exam, even if all the government offices and even the warehouses are freed up, it is still not enough.
In desperation, Li Yunze could only donate his own palace to the students for examinations.
Even so, facing countless candidates, they can only take exams in turn.
As for leaking issues, there are naturally corresponding institutional arrangements to deal with them.
It's like students from different schools take exams together and supervise each other. After the exam is over, you are not allowed to leave. You are gathered together to wait for the next round of candidates to enter before walking out, etc.
Basically, all the schools hate each other and want to trample each other into the dirt. Even if they are different factions within the same school, they are like fire and water. Of course, they cannot collude.
Even if someone is really colluding, once they are found out, in this era where reputation is more important than life, that person is finished.
Not only he personally, but also his family and his school will be humiliated by this, and they will not be able to hold their head up after being pointed at for many years.
But even so, Li Yunze arranged for soldiers to patrol inside and outside the various examination rooms.
Even he himself took time to inspect the examination room.
Just in time, he heard the student's roar.
Li Yunze paused and turned to look at Zhi Du behind him, "Go and take a look?"
Zhidu bowed respectfully and said, "I will obey the king's orders in everything."
This person was a Lang Guan during the reign of Emperor Wen, and was a Zhonglang General during the reign of Emperor Jing.
Two years ago, Emperor Liu Qi went to Shanglin Garden to visit. Jackie, who was accompanying her, went to go to the toilet, but suddenly a wild boar ran out and broke into the toilet.
Liu Qi Zhidu went to rescue the beauty, but Zhidu showed no reaction.
When Liu Qi was holding a knife and wanted to save the beauty, he was stopped by Zhidu.
The original saying is, "If you lose one concubine, countless more will come into the palace. Is there a shortage of people like Jia Ji in the world?" Even if Your Majesty looks down upon yourself, what will happen to the Ancestral Temple and the Queen Mother? '
Liu Qi was persuaded, but Ji Ji was lucky and the wild boar ran away.
By the way, Jia Ji is Prince Sheng’s biological mother.
This time Zhidu was sent here. On the one hand, Shi Fen, the new Taifu of Zhongshan Kingdom, came to take office. On the other hand, he himself was appointed as the lieutenant of Zhongshan Kingdom.
Well, the former lieutenant Wu Gang could only resign voluntarily and sadly became Zhidu's deputy.
Under normal circumstances, the only officials in a feudal country are the Taifu who assists the king and the state minister who leads all officials, who are appointed by Chang'an. The rest are arranged by the king himself.
In some important places, or places where you are worried, the lieutenants in charge of military power will also be arranged by Chang'an.
But Li Yunze is obviously different here.
Grand Tutor Shi Fen was carefully selected for him by Emperor Liu Qi. This man had already been an official during the period of Emperor Gao, and had gained great fame over several dynasties.
Moreover, there are four sons in his family, all of whom have achieved official positions of two thousand dan.
There is a family of five men, known as Wan Shijun.
Coupled with Zhang Ou, who officially serves as the Prime Minister, and Zhidu, who was specially arranged to come, this is clearly providing talents to Li Yunze.
Zhidu also brought a letter from Liu Qi, which said that just tell whoever you like, and the emperor will arrange it.
Li Yunze was very satisfied with these. Finally, someone could help him share the work.
He led Zhidu into the examination room and walked straight to the candidate with an angry look on his face. "Why are you angry?"
When the candidate saw Li Yunze's attire, he knew his identity. He hurriedly saluted and explained, "I really don't know the use of such difficult questions."
Many candidates around looked at him. They were actually puzzled by such a difficult question.
Li Yunze looked at him calmly, "The question is indeed difficult, but how can you select talents if it is not difficult? As for its use, I would like to ask you. During the rainy season, when it rains heavily, the Hutuo River overflows, inundating countless fertile fields in villages on both sides. This king wants to govern Hu
If you don’t know how much water there is in the Tuohe River, how can you control it? "
"this"
The examinee looked ugly and said unwillingly, "Just build embankments on both sides of the bank."
"Ah."
Li Yunze smiled calmly, "Are the dams built during the dry season or during the rainy season?"
".Dry season"
"How high, how thick, and how long can the building be to block floods during the rainy season?"
"."
Looking at the candidate's blushing face, Li Yunze shook his head, "You must first know the flow rate of the Hutuo River before you can calculate what kind of dam needs to be built, whether a reservoir needs to be built for water storage, etc. This is just the most basic Basic steps. If connected
If you don’t understand this, how can you control the water? "
The candidate was obviously anxious and gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, I did not come to the imperial examination just to control the flood."
Li Yunze, who was about to leave, stopped in surprise, "What did you say?"
"We take part in the imperial examination to seek official positions and represent the emperor and the king as herdsmen. All we need to do is know how to herd people, collect taxes, levy corvees, and no need."
Before he finished speaking, Li Yunze had already kicked him.
Even under control, his strength was enough to kick the idiot away.
"If you are an official, you will only bring trouble to one party." Li Yunze, with a dark face, waved his hand, "Throw it out, throw it out of Zhongshan Kingdom, and then spread the word throughout the world to tell this person that he is a waste, get out!"
When the kicked candidate who vomited blood was dragged out, Li Yunze looked around the examination room and asked, "Who has the same idea as him?"
Under such circumstances, whoever dares to state that he has the same thoughts will naturally receive no response.
"I don't accept trash, nor do I accept scum."
Li Yunze said with a dark face, "I will have an interview after the exam. If you are all such scum, you can get out now!"
The examination room was quiet, no one dared to speak.
Li Yunze lost interest in continuing his inspection and turned around to leave with Zhidu.
Back in the palace, Li Yunze simply told him, "Zhidu, I have ordered you to be the patrol envoy to inspect all counties in Zhongshan Kingdom. From the county magistrate to the powerful. Anyone who does evil will be dealt with by you."
The expressionless Zhidu immediately saluted, "Here~~~"
Zhidu is a character who has been in the historical records, but he was in the biography of cool officials!
In the early Han Dynasty, in order to restore national power as quickly as possible, he advocated the Huang-Lao method of governing by doing nothing. This method led to the rapid expansion of local power.
Such powerful families, no matter in the Han Dynasty or in later generations, ran rampant in the place, despised the government and did not abide by the laws of the country.
And local officials usually have inextricable connections with them, so even a county guard with two thousand dan can't do anything to them.
Zhidu is different, he is a cruel official.
Wherever I serve as a county guard, I always first inquire about the situation, determine the targets of powerful families, and then go directly to slaughter them with soldiers and horses.
Its powerful deterrence can even prevent the county from picking up lost items on the road.
Zhongshan Kingdom, which only has eight counties, is actually not enough for him to perform well.
The imperial examination went smoothly and a large number of talents were quickly selected.
What Li Yunze has to do is to vacate the position of those who are colluding with local powerful people and doing nothing as soon as possible.
In this regard, Zhidu is the fastest knife.
After experiencing the cruel torture of the mathematics exam, the candidates who were originally arrogant and arrogant all became honest.
They thought they had learned a lot, but when they took the next exam, they realized that there were too many things they didn't understand.
Li Yunze always sneered at this kind of thing.
Five carts filled with bamboo slips are nothing. The number of words recorded on them is not even comparable to that of a later Internet book.
According to the standards of this era, people of later generations who have attended kindergarten are extremely well-educated.
The content of the third exam is astronomy, geography, history, customs and customs.
The so-called astronomy is not to look at the stars, but to understand the climate.
As for geography, they are not asked to write poems praising the mountains and rivers, but to understand the land.
Needless to say about history, we should learn from history and know that mistakes made in history cannot be repeated again.
The local customs and customs are more real, and they are directly about understanding people's livelihood.
Those who can perform well in these aspects are naturally suitable to be officials.
After three rounds of exams, as many as 90% of the candidates have been eliminated!
In terms of Chinese, most of them can pass smoothly.
But mathematically, it fell by a large margin.
As for astronomy, geography, history, etc., some people are proficient in certain aspects, but not many are proficient in everything.
After nearly ten days of reviewing, all candidates’ scores were released.
Li Yunze had no intention of hiding anything. He simply erected a large wooden sign outside the Debt Palace, preparing to post the results of the shortlisted candidates directly.
On the day when the announcement was made, there was a huge crowd outside the palace.
Countless students gathered outside the palace, anxiously waiting for the results to be announced.
Most of the candidates are indeed here to seek an official position.
But in fact, there are still some people who come here to prove themselves, or to add glory to their own school of thought.
Various schools of thought all say that they are good, but how can they distinguish between superior and inferior?
In the past, it depended on who the imperial court used, which was naturally the stronger one.
Qin used Legalism to sweep across Liuhe, and Legalism was naturally the dominant force at that time.
In the early Han Dynasty, the country was governed by Huang Lao's techniques, so it was natural that Huang Lao's family had the right to speak.
But now, all the families and factions have gathered together, and everyone is taking the exam in the same examination room. Whoever has the ability will be judged by his or her results.
This is also one of the reasons why the scale of this imperial examination was so large.
The palace door finally opened, and Zhang Tang, who had been promoted to Zhongshan Imperial Lieutenant by Li Yunze, stepped out first.
The feudal states of the Western Han Dynasty set up hundreds of officials, who were under the same system as the imperial court.
There are some in the imperial court, and there are also some in the feudal states.
There are Tingwei in the imperial court, and the former Tingwei Zhang Ou is now the Prime Minister of Zhongshan Kingdom.
But Zhang Tang, who came with Zhang Ou on a business trip, was directly promoted from a Jingzhao official to a Tingwei.
Even if he is only a Tingwei in eight counties, he is still a Tingwei.
The students retreated one after another, making way for Zhang Tang and others.
He took the first report card from the clerk behind him and pasted it directly on the first wooden sign.
Then Zhang Tang took a deep breath and shouted loudly, "The first place in the Zhongshan Imperial Examination will go to Linzi Master Fuyan!"
