Three Kingdoms: Starting War Strategy System
Chapter 264
In the past few days, scholars from all over the world have come to the capital one after another, preparing to participate in the examination that will be held soon.
Naturally, these people all have Juren status. According to their reported numbers, there are a total of 53,900 people!
Yes!
Up to more than half a million!
According to the number of successful candidates at the end of the provincial examination, the total number was as high as 630,000, which means that as many as 130,000 candidates were absent due to various reasons.
Some had accidents, some missed the exam because of loss at home, some fell ill because of acclimatization, and some simply did not come to take the exam.
A large part of Liu Chen's recruitment quota in the provincial examination was"exceptional selection". In fact, these people cannot become candidates and cannot pass the provincial examination.
But because they are outstanding in certain aspects, such as mathematics, physics, astronomy, etc., they are promoted exceptionally.
It gave them the qualifications and bottom line to be officials.
These people are also very capable. They know that they can't pass the examination at all, so they simply give up.
You must know that the examination was held in the capital, and it was a long journey.Not to mention, the travel expenses, food and other expenses to Beijing are also a huge expense.
Even if Liu Chen ordered to cover travel expenses, he still had food, clothing and housing. For many students who had no hope, he simply chose to give up.
In the end, the provincial examination enrollment was as high as 630,000, but the difference in the general examination report was only about 500,000.
Some of those who gave up were directly engaged in various industries and became grassroots officials under the arrangements of their own states and counties. They were regarded as civil servants in the Han Dynasty.
This is naturally not their end. These candidates selected from the first imperial examination will receive special attention.
There is also a performance appraisal every year, and those who are outstanding can be promoted.
In short, it can be called an internship period.
There are more than 500,000 people who have come to Beijing to take the exam. Naturally, these are people who have great confidence in themselves, or who have wealthy families, and want to come and try.
This time the examination will be held in Changshan School.
Changshan School includes elementary, middle and high schools, as well as accelerated classes, adult classes, night classes and other classes, covering a huge area.
There are more than 500,000 scholars, and only Changshan School, which has been renovated many times, can accept them. , they will hold the examination in the classroom.
As for the exam papers this time, the officials, famous teachers and scholars who produced them were placed under strict supervision more than a month ago.
After they finished issuing the test papers, they could not leave until the exam was over.
This is to avoid the occurrence of imperial examination fraud.
When Liu Chen selected the examiner, he had already obtained their consent and required a supervision period of more than two months.
These people who took out the papers were heavily guarded by Liu Chen's army, and they were only allowed to enter but not leave their residences.
In order to avoid accidents such as funerals in the person's home, Liu Chen made multiple preparations. For example, backing up test papers, stipulating the number of questions for each person, etc.
This is all for the sake of fairness and justice in the imperial examination.
The general examination is in the capital, right under Liu Chen's nose, so don't even think about cheating.
For the rural examination, after the examination papers were released from the capital, they were sent to various places by communication pigeons and printed under the heavy guard of the local garrison.
They only had to supervise the officials in the Printing Bureau.
But the feasibility of black-box operations is still very high.
Today's garrison is all brothers who have followed Liu Chen in his battles in the north and south, conquering the world. They have great loyalty and trust in Liu Chen.
These people can naturally be trusted.
However, as time goes by, the possibility of imperial examination fraud will definitely appear in the future. Liu Chen must think of a perfect solution.
But later Liu Chen also figured out that the dynasty was naturally prosperous at the beginning of its establishment, but with the emergence of unworthy descendants, the dynasty also experienced a parabolic decline and gradually declined.
This is all inevitable.
Liu Chen couldn't live forever, and he couldn't supervise the future generations' unworthy descendants who would ruin his family's fortune.
So why do you think so much?
After thinking about it, Liu Chen put these worries behind him and looked forward to the convening of the imperial examination. He was even thinking about whether to hold the imperial examination.
The imperial examination system in this life is completely different from the imperial examination system in later generations.
Because the content of Liu Chen's exam was not the Four Books and Five Classics, many details were changed and set up by himself, which completely changed.
The original history is like Mingshu, which is mathematics, but it is a minor path. It can be regarded as a general hobby of poetry and poetry.
Although arithmetic is said to be one of the six arts of a gentleman, it was not tested in the imperial examination at all. Of course, if you choose the"Book of Changes" as the main classic among the Five Classics, you still need to make a clear plan and lay the foundation.
But generally speaking, scholars have only dabbled in these minor ways of clear calculation and do not seek to understand them deeply.
At least most of them are.
In contrast, look at the imperial examination held by Liu Chen.
It includes fifteen subjects including mathematics, science, astronomy, geography, law, economics, government affairs, science and technology, development, construction, patriotism, and military affairs.
These are very close to the scope of examinations in later generations, and even cover a wider range of aspects.
Liu Chen originally built a school in Changshan in 187, and it has now been 205 years.
With Liu Chen's nearly twenty years of educational reform, many mathematics, physics and other subjects of later generations were spread all over the world, and these scholars also had a wide range of subjects.
This is also the reason why Liu Chen has only started the imperial examination until now.
If the imperial examination had been carried out in a hurry just after time travel, no one would participate at all. I don’t want to think that there are hundreds of thousands or millions of candidates now.
It can be said that today is finally the day for Liu Chen to reap the rewards, and it is also the day for Liu Chen to test the results of the education reform.
In fact, this can be seen from the reported number of registered scholars - although people from aristocratic families still occupy a lot of places, there are also many children from poor families, and there are also many from ordinary people.
This is what Liu Chen wants to see, a truly fair and just imperial examination that can allow civilians to transcend classes and leap over the dragon's gate!
Just as Liu Chen was looking forward to it, the exam finally arrived.
It's four o'clock in the morning.
The candidates were queuing up in the examination room. They had received the examination room number in advance. It was naturally impossible for more than half a million candidates to squeeze in and out of one portal.
There are a total of sixteen entrances, handling more than half a million candidates.
These sixteen doors were surrounded by crowds, including traders and lackeys, local people, and unidentified scholars, etc., all watching the examination feast.
Nearly ten million scholars participated in the selection examination, more than seven million were eliminated, and more than three million talented people were admitted. Among them, more than one million were admitted under exceptional circumstances.
Of the more than three million Maocai candidates, only more than 600,000 succeeded in the provincial examination. The quota for special admissions is at least half.
I don’t know how many people are left who can leap over the dragon gate in this trial? How many lucky people have been admitted under exceptional circumstances?
Amidst much anticipation, the examination finally began.
