Chapter 374: Provincial Exam Questions

Of course, what he was thinking was not certain.

After obtaining the consent of his father, Du Huangshang returned to his study and began to work hard.

He had already found out that the foreign scholar on the street today was named Hong Yuan, who lived alone in the inn. He asked briefly that this person's food, clothing, housing and transportation were quite simple, and he didn't like to make friends with others. He was a very low-key candidate.

"Hong Yuan... I want to see if you have the ability to match the words you said during the day. If you have the chance, I want to show it out with you and see who can benefit the Tang Dynasty more!"

After seeing Li Yan return in triumphantly, Hong Yuan and Du Huangshang were just two of the excited candidates. Almost all the candidates were secretly sure that they must pass the Jinshi and must make their own achievements for the Tang Dynasty, such as Li Yan, so that they can all be recorded in history.

This is the power of idols. Every candidate who can reach the provincial examination knows that as a scholar and a person who wants to get a fame, the imperial examinations are indeed available every year, but the wise king has not always sat in Chang'an City.

Whether it is the Tang Dynasty or the dynasties before the Tang Dynasty, if you take out all those who have been emperors, you will definitely have more foolish monarchs than wise monarchs.

It is so common in this era that a young and promising emperor is like a lottery in the hearts of these candidates. Li Qing's appearance is like a stimulant, which can definitely stimulate the potential of these people.

Li Wen, who returned to Tai Chi Palace, did not say in the court that he was so awesome this time, because he knew very well that it would be boring to say this thing by himself. There was no legend that he could say. It had to be guessed by the people below. You have to leave enough room for imagination for others!

Unlike the excitement of the officials and the people, the two women in the Tai Chi Palace were only worried about Li Yi. That night, Feng Yi knew how urgent the military situation was when he saw Li Yi's condition. She also knew the combat effectiveness of the Tubo people. So until the first news of Li Yi came back, she and Zhang Mingyue were almost unable to sleep at night.

In the end, even though they knew that Li Qing had won the battle, they were afraid that Li Qing would be injured and whether she could get cold. It was not until Li Qing appeared in Tai Chi Palace with great enthusiasm that their hearts were in their stomachs.

Both of them could see Li Neng's hard work. I don't know if it was because of his concern for Li Neng during this period, and he wanted to compensate Li Neng for a while, or if some of his body felt a little too strong. That night, Feng Yi did not return to his bedroom, but lived with Li Neng in Zhang Mingyue's queen's bedroom.

Why is this? It’s just that Zhang Mingyue’s bed is the most generous, and there is no problem sleeping for a few people. As for the rest, it is the story of a little brother of Li Qing fighting on the battlefield and vomiting blood and falling down...

The day after Li Qing came back was the day when the court was resting. The ministers also knew that Li Qing had been in Lingzhou for more than a month and had experienced a very fierce battle. After finally coming back, he should have a good rest, so no one came to disturb Li Qing at this time.

In the end, because the little brother who vomited blood and fell to the ground was defeated again and again, Li Qing lay in the queen's bedroom for most of the day until her stomach was so hungry that she got up and got some food.

After Guo Ziyi and Guo Xi sent Li Yan to the Tai Chi Palace, they returned to their mansion in Chang'an City, which made the people of the Guo clan in Chang'an City very happy.

Since ancient times, Guo Ziyi has already told his wives and sons that his ending will most likely be a horse-dressed body.

But now, because of Li Neng, Guo Ziyi ended up returning home in glory, which seemed to be the best in his wife and sons. Of course, because of this result, they decided to go through fire and water for Li Neng.

Of course, his legend has not ended yet. Li Qing has decided to give this old man who has spent half his life on the Tang Dynasty at the right time, and it is still the kind of hereditary one. This is enough to make the Guo Ziyi clan have the number one in the history of the Tang Dynasty.

However, at present, there is an even more important thing that Li Yan needs to decide. After the first court after the rest, everyone looked at Li Yan, who was indifferent, and almost no one dared to use any trouble to anger him. The court dispersed in a few words, but after the court dispersed, Xu Yuan almost turned his head and went outside Li Yan's hall to ask for a meeting.

"Old Xu, if there is nothing big, I will talk about it in a few days. I am really tired after this battle. It is really difficult to rest in one day!"

"Your Majesty, I understand, but this matter must be finalized quickly, otherwise many things will not be arranged. Is the questions for this provincial examination to be given to Your Majesty for review, to be selected by Your Majesty, or to give the questions personally? This matter must be decided. Otherwise, if I will give the questions in a hurry, wouldn't it be difficult for these candidates who have been working hard for several years?"

When he heard this, he looked at Xu Yuan's anxious expression. Li Qing slapped his head and thought to himself how he forgot this. What is the most important thing about this test is that you can come up with a high-level question so that the level and thinking of the candidates can be fully demonstrated through this question.

Li Qing didn't look at the provincial exam questions carefully in previous years. Anyway, he thought that many of the questions given by the Minister of Rites were obscure and difficult to understand. They created difficulties out of thin air and made them difficult for the candidates.

There are very few candidates who have been studying in the provincial examination. They are all people who have read the books of sages for many years, and their basic knowledge is excellent, otherwise they will not be able to go this far. Therefore, objective questions are basically useless to them. They can only use subjective questions to examine whether they are suitable for being officials.

In previous years, this subjective question should have been given by the examiner. The greatest honor of the examiner is actually not arranging the exam. In the eyes of many people, it is precisely this question, because many candidates who have passed the Jinshi in high school have performed well because of this question and what is in their heads. Therefore, they will regard the examiner as their noble person.

For a person who is in the officialdom, these young connections are actually very important. Even if he can't use them, his son may use them.
