Is the imperial lifting weight?

Every scholar present asked himself in his heart.

Of course it is not serious anymore. Everyone will say this on the surface, but there are a few people in their hearts who don’t think so.

Everyone thought Lin Yanchao wanted to deny this statement, but saw him smiling and said, "I think it's of course it's important, otherwise what will happen to me?"

Listening to Lin Yanchao's words, everyone in the school smiled.

"If everyone is a pity for the imperial examination, why should our government here be here to open the door for the imperial court to recruit scholars?"

The scholars below laughed loudly after hearing this.

Seeing everyone laughing, Lin Yanchao said solemnly: "However, the imperial examination is heavy, but is there any heavier than the imperial examination? When our residence was young, the teacher once advised him that "the career is not a problem that it is not a problem that it can hinder merit, but only the ambition is a problem."

When scholars hear this, they are meditating.

"Everyone, what is ambition? You are eager to be fame and fortune, but you are ashamed of being humiliated by fame and fortune."

Mencius said that wealth and honor cannot be lust, power and force cannot be betrayed, poverty and humbleness cannot be moved, this is a truth that scholars know. However, Lin Yanchao said that we can pursue wealth and honor, fear power and fear poverty and humbleness on weekdays.

But we must have more important ambitions in our hearts, which cannot be taken away by these things. Just as we are keen on fame, we cannot change our ambitions for fame.

Many scholars present knew after listening to it that this is also the idea of ​​learning to achieve success.

Lin Yanchao was highly appreciated by the emperor at the time. He passed the Sanyuan period and became a Japanese official. He had a bright future, but he was demoted to the local area because of the flood in Guide Prefecture.

If you are rich and noble, everyone will say that you will abandon it, but doing it is another matter.

Therefore, many scholars admire Lin Yanchao very much. He truly achieved the "integration of learning and Tao". Only by combining learning and Tao can we apply what we learn, which is the foundation of Lin Xue.

Therefore, after hearing Lin Yanchao's words, all scholars couldn't help but come to know that this is the study of merit. There is no profound truth in it, but it is so appropriate that even those who are ignorant of it can do it.

At this time, a student below asked, "I dare to ask about the Mansion, what is the ambition?"

Lin Yanchao nodded and said, "You are very good at asking, the court has laws and regulations, and you should not hide the death toll for three years and give the imperial examination. This is filial piety. Which of the following candidates come to participate in the imperial examination before they comply with the system? This is the inconsistent intention and the law."

"The ugly words of our administration are ahead of us. Those who violate this imperial examination will be punished strictly regardless of whether they are lucky or not."

All the readers all looked frightened and they felt fear in their hearts.

Below, Lin Yanchao emphasized the rules of this government examination. In addition to hiding the funeral period, it is also prohibited to entrain the exam, impersonate the name, bribery fraud, etc.

Those who impostors pursue the Confucian children who are in charge of the joint security, and remove the reputation of the students who are in charge of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the

After saying this, the Confucian children below were all uneasy. Later, Lin Yanchao asked the Confucian children to enter the government office to allow the students to be protected and receive the exam ticket.

Lin Yanchao entered the lobby and sat down. After sitting for a while, Professor Zeng from the Ministry of Education led eight scholars to see Lin Yanchao.

Guide Prefecture has eight counties and one prefecture, six prefectures and two prefectures belong to counties, so there are eight counties. These eight Confucians are the heads of the county examinations in each county, and several magistrates personally ordered the first place.

According to the unwritten rules for the examination, these Confucian children were equivalent to those who were recommended by several magistrates and must pass the examination in the examination.

Lin Yanchao asked a few questions about their articles, and said a few words casually with his name and status at this time, which made these Confucian children who were about to become Lin Yanchao's disciples extremely frightened.

Seeing that they were uneasy, Lin Yanchao patiently taught them the principle of diligence first in reading and respect first in learning.

Later, the teachings of each county were presented with a list of the hall numbers of each county, and these people were among the top ten in the county examination.

According to the rules, the government tests more than 1,000 papers, and as a prefect, it is difficult to read them one by one. Even if it is a test, a tester can only change two or three hundred papers.

Therefore, during the examination of the palace, the prefect usually invites people who are proficient in literature and art to read the papers on their behalf early.

However, as the chief examiner of the prefecture examination, it is best to take a look at the top ten counties and the first case of the county case. These people have excellent grades in the county examination, and the top ten are likely to be on them.

Then take a look at the papers recommended by your subordinates in a comprehensive manner. This is already very responsible. This is similar to the exam. The examiner will be allowed to stay or leave, and the examiner will be given the ranking.

Of course, there are also those who are so scattered by the hands-off managers who don’t read any of them themselves and leave them all to the people below to read the text.

After half a day of busy work, the Rutong had received the exam ticket and left. At this time, the student who came to protect the Rutong came to visit.

These people usually study in schools, and there are about dozens of students among the top students in their prefectures and counties.

Lin Yanchao must treat these students kindly. He can not only receive rice and protect the Confucian children, but also

You can enter the provincial examination without going through the scientific examination.

It can be said that these people have the right to speak in the local Shilin.

Lin Yanchao said a few words to each student. During the chat, Lin Yanchao noticed that several students had different expressions. This made Lin Yanchao think of the fact that Ma Tong had reminded him that there would be a student that would be detrimental to him that the government had suspended the sale of land contracts.

After the student of the Imperial College left, Lin Yanchao immediately called Chen Jichuan and Zhan Ming, asking them to loosen the outside and tighten the inside on the day of the palace examination, and sent more people to prevent someone from causing trouble.

After the two received the order, they secretly sent people to conduct open and secret investigations.

The home test will start in three days.

The examination room is located in the Fuxue Academy, which is also the place where Guide has always held the Fuxue Academy.

Guide has always been poor, and the provincial school is inevitably disrepaired. Although the provincial school was temporarily repaired before the provincial examination, it has not improved much in general.

The thorny wall is low and even collapses in some places. You can only temporarily repair it with broken wooden bricks.

As for the examination houses, they are mostly tilted and difficult to shelter from wind and rain.

Fortunately, the palace examination is a daytime exam, and the weather in May is pretty good. Otherwise, it would take three days and two nights to go through the February examination, and the candidates would have to fail at least half of them after the exam.

However, such an exam is inevitably difficult to take the exam seriously.

Especially in the previous county examinations, the national imperial examinations that sounded very noble, but the standards were different. Some places strictly enforced, while others were not strict in the examinations.

There are several county examinations in Guide Prefecture, and the candidates even whispered and chatted in the examination room, and even there were several similar papers in the examination room. It was not uncommon for the examiner to take one of them.

After the candidates entered the venue, it was already bright in the sky. After Lin Yanchao, Professor Zeng, the magistrate of Shangqiu, and all the school officials from prefectures and counties burned incense and worshiped the saints, Lin Yanchao announced that the palace examination began.

The government test started, but Professor Zeng and the magistrate of Shangqiu were all confused. Where was Lin Yanchao's test questions?

But seeing Lin Yanchao remained silent, he ordered people to put the Four Books and Five Classics on it, and then picked up a book at will, asking Professor Zeng and the magistrate of Shangqiu to say a number.

Then Lin Yanchao turned the numbers of the two into pages and lines into lines, and picked a sentence from the book as a test question and wrote it directly on the water card.

Seeing Lin Yanchao's method, both of them couldn't help but feel like they had such an operation.

In order to prevent candidates from cheating, Lin Yanchao did this, so that he could show his support and eliminate all requests and fraud.

After writing, Lin Yanchao said: "I will post all the records of this palace examination on the wall of the academy. Any candidate can raise any objection to the papers taken by the government!"

As soon as these words were spoken, both of them took a breath, which was equivalent to letting the public supervise.

But everyone has their own comments, and who has the confidence to comment on the paper to everyone, which will lead to countless controversies.

Therefore, there has never been a reason why examiners can use scholars’ papers to evaluate them at will.

Only Lin Yanchao can do it. He has the confidence. In Guide Mansion or Henan, no one dares to question the level of the current Wenzong's ruling articles, and even says a little more, "Haha, you dare to question Lin Sanyuan, damn it."

Therefore, no matter how arrogant and arrogant the children are, they dare not criticize them, otherwise they will be drowned by the spits around them.

Others can only praise Lin Yanchao for his actions as an impartial candidate for scholars and not for personal gain.

But how could Lin Yanchao finish reading these thousands of papers one by one?

However, Professor Zeng and the magistrate of Shangqiu both admired Lin Yanchao and said, "The Futai can be a model for the Futai trial in the future."

Lin Yanchao smiled and said, "I don't want to seek fame. Please ask two of you to do this, and all the academic officials don't want to make a statement for Lin."

Everyone bowed and called it yes.

So the yamen runners raised the water sign and the candidates immediately copied the exam questions.

There are not many questions in the palace examination, two four-book questions and one selected five-classic question.

After reading the topic, the scholars immediately copied it on the topic sheet and began to think hard. They had a talented and quick mind and started to write it in a short time.

The Guide Prefecture Examination officially began, and the scholars were busy doing the test. At this moment, in a large Gongxue Academy, some places where there were not strict supervision and broken corners of the wall, some Confucian children copied the test questions and threw them out of the wall quietly.

Soon, a person outside the wall picked up the test questions from the ground and hurriedly left.

The three questions in the provincial examination are not difficult for many people.

In less than half a day, many scholars have finished writing the paper and entered the classroom to hand over the paper with Lin Yanchao. Why should they hand in the paper in advance? This is a common method for candidates.

Because I write articles seriously and submit the papers at a specified time, the examiner may not have the time to read them. Generally, the person below will be satisfied with the reading and then hand them over to the examiner.

Rather than doing this, it is better to show it to the examiner first.

If you can personally receive Lin Yanchao's guidance, even if you fail this mansion test, your face will be bright if it is heard.

Nowadays, several scholars are in a hurry to hand in their papers before noon.

"I beg for the Futaitang to try."

After handing over the paper, the Rutong said this.

Lin Yanchao smiled and said, "What I want to ask is in your article."

At the moment, Lin Yanchao was marking the papers. He looked at ten lines at a glance, holding a red pen and constantly correcting the papers while looking.

After a moment, the volume was finished. The Ru Tong, who was holding the paper, saw that Lin Yanchao had revised his article so quickly, was surprised to wonder whether the other party had read it seriously.

But I saw that not only comments were written on the paper, but even typos and ink were changed one by one.

Lin Yanchao said softly: "Literature and science are still worth it. I took the paper and went back to figure it out. Come again next year!"

The Confucian boy had nothing to say, and tears came out on the spot, but he bowed respectfully to Lin Yanchao and walked towards the Longmen.
