Chapter 100 The situation is grim
Yao Wannian then said to everyone: "I only talk about three key points. Don't interrupt me. When I finish speaking, everyone's emotions will calm down. The first key point is that this reform is not aimed at Xiangzhou, but involves all prefectures and counties in the world. Everyone is at the same starting point, which is actually fair. As long as everyone hurry up and review, I think it should be too late."
This sentence is also a kind of comfort, and everyone is right to think about it. In fact, it has added criminal law and poetry examinations. I have learned a little bit in the elementary school of poetry, but it is not that I can't do it, but my level is not high. As for criminal law, it is a rote memorization. As long as you spend more time, you can deal with it. If you think about this, everyone's anxiety will calm down a little.
Yao Wannian continued: "The second key point is that the answer is divided into two tests. In fact, our county has already had a qualification test in September, which is the annual county school exam. It is now changed to be hosted by the prefecture. The format is different, so don't be afraid."
Yao Wannian's explanation is not convincing. Everyone can basically pass the county school qualification examination every year, and it is not difficult. However, this time, it is the county examination that will be issued, and at least more than half of it will be eliminated.
At this time, a scholar raised his hand and asked, "If we can't pass the first county examination, will there be hope for the school in the state?"
This is the issue that everyone is concerned about. After all, most students have to go to the state school.
Yao Wannian smiled and said, "This student asked very well. This is the third key point I want to talk about. This reform is the imperial examination reform, not the Taixue reform, so the imperial examination reform does not affect the provincial education. Think about it, how many of you can pass the imperial examination every year?
I'm not trying to attack everyone. Every year, there are no more than ten people who directly pass the examination for Tangyin County School, and only about seven or eight people. Most of them go to the provincial school, and the provincial school itself has to learn to write poetry. When you come out of the provincial school, you will take the examination for the examination. Are you still worried about taking the examination for poetry and criminal law at that time?"
Yao Wannian had a clear idea. He knew what everyone was worried about, and he knew that this kind of worry was not necessary at all. He continued to appease everyone.
"I can tell you clearly that in order to make everyone hurry up and review, the original county school entrance examination was cancelled in September this year. As long as you are a formal student in the county school, you can directly take the entrance examination for the state school this year. Starting next year, the county school entrance examination will be changed in January of each year, which is also the official decision of the magistrate."
I heard that the county school entrance examination was cancelled this year, and many students were relieved, but more students were anxious. The county school entrance examination was not enough to worry about, and they could even be exempted from the exam after spending some money, but the first county examination in the trial was really fatal.
A student raised his hand and said loudly: "We all want to participate in the Examination Examination. Can the county school give us some supplementary poems and criminal laws?"
Yao Wannian nodded, "Don't worry everyone! When the county receives the official notice, I will arrange courses. The county school will definitely fully support everyone's future."
With the repeated guarantees of the teacher, everyone's fear gradually subsided. At this time, Zhang Xian asked Li Yanqing in a low voice and said, "Do you understand the three key points of the teacher?"
Li Yanqing nodded, Yao Wannian said three key points for a long time, but in fact it was just one sentence: You can give up the exam and go to the state to take the exam.
It seems that the situation of the imperial examination this year is quite serious.
.........
After returning home, Li Yanqing re-read the book that had been packed and studied it carefully. This time he mainly studied the interpretation part. He understood Guo Baisong's words. The essence of this imperial examination reform was that the court wanted to take back the power of the states to issue trials.
It was late at night, and the sound of the updater's slight sound from the distance was already two o'clock.
It started to rain outside, and the raindrops on the eaves drizzled, knocking on the windows, and the sultry heat in the room was swept away, becoming cool and comfortable.
Such a cool night is the most suitable for sleeping and resting. The lights are extinguished one after another, and even Yue Fei, who is studying military tactics, fell asleep early for the first time.
Li Yanqing's study room is still on, and he is still studying hard. He has strong confidence in getting into the exam, but with the implementation of reforms this year, he has to start from scratch.
In the past, they did not need to understand and interpret the test. They just need to memorize it carefully. But this year's test will be in line with the southern states, and it will be even more difficult for scholars from the north.
Today, Li Yanqing obtained a collection of answers to the previous exams in the Ten Prefectures of Jiangnan through the relationship between Shilinyuan Bookstore. Through the study of answers to the South, he can master the context of answers to this year and review it in a targeted manner.
This is a valuable experience left to him in his previous life. Learning must be targeted and learn to learn from one example and learn to apply it to others through problem solving, so as to achieve twice the result with half the effort.
For example, there was an essay question in Jiangning Mansion before going to the test. The general meaning of the question is as follows:
The Zhou rituals set up six officials in heaven, earth, spring, summer, autumn, and winter. The three provinces and six ministries system also references the six officials in the Zhou rituals to set up six ministries, but why was the Ministry of Justice designated as the autumn official? And why was the Ministry of Rites designated as the spring official? What is the meaning of this?
In the first year of Guangzhai in Tang Dynasty, Wu Zetian changed the name of the six ministries to the six officials. Why did he restore his original name in the first year of Shenlong? Try to discuss the reasons for the name change twice.
This test question not only requires candidates to be able to accurately answer the meaning of the six officials of Zhou Li, but also requires candidates to have a deep understanding of the history and politics of the Tang Dynasty.
From this question, Li Yanqing found the direction of learning. He must master the major events that have occurred in this dynasty. This is very likely the direction of the question to be issued this year.
If he wants to pass the imperial examination, he must send out surprise troops, give full play to his strong learning ability, and make full use of the valuable experience left in his previous life. This is his magic weapon to win.
The night became deeper and the rain was getting heavier and heavier. There was a hint of coolness in the air. The light in Li Yanqing's study finally went out. This was also the last light to be extinguished in Tangyin County. The entire Tangyin County was completely swallowed up by darkness and night rain.
.........
The next day, Li Yanqing found Zhou Ti and asked Zhou Ti for several months. He had to concentrate on preparing for the imperial examination and had no time to practice martial arts, so he could only ask his master to understand his difficulties.
Zhou Tong pondered for a moment and said, "Your riding and shooting has basically passed, but the marksmanship has just begun and the foundation is far from being well-made. But I also know that you have lofty ambitions, okay! Just prepare for the imperial examination with all your heart, and I will teach you the marksmanship when you finish the exam."
"Thank you, the master, for understanding the difficulties of the students."
At this time, Yue Fei, Wang Gui and Tang Huai also surrounded him. Wang Gui said proudly: "Old Li, if you don't practice marksmanship with us, your marksmanship will not be as good as mine in the future!"
Li Yanqing kicked him, "Then practice it well for me, don't be lazy. In the future, I will give you the vanguard officer of the front seal."
Wang Gui blinked, "Why are you here to block me? Your marksmanship is not as good as mine, let alone I have to learn swordsmanship."
Tang Huai curled his lips and waved the golden folding fan and said, "Mr. Wang's head was kicked by a donkey again! Old Li said so clearly but still can't understand it? From now on, we will be his generals. Old Li is taking the commander route, and we are taking the soldier route."
Yue Fei shook his head and said solemnly: "I dare not agree with this. War originates from practice, and experience lies in actual combat accumulation. My Song Dynasty implemented civil servants to lead troops, which is the root cause of the Song army's unsuccessful battles. One day in the future...."
