The back door of my house can last until the end of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 140 Exam
The conversation between the two gradually became active.

Lu Xiangsheng, a frustrated person, did not receive any discrimination from Sun Jie.

Civil officials discriminate against military generals, why wouldn't military generals discriminate against civilian officials?
Lu Xiangsheng can be sure that if the person standing in front of him today is another general, I am afraid that he will definitely ridicule him for nothing.

In today's troubled times, one can rule the roost with soldiers in hand, and the status of civil servants has begun to be inferior to those who lead the army.

While talking, Lu Xiangsheng talked about the matter of Chen Hu.

"I heard that Mr. Sun once killed the chief soldier of a town in order to vent his anger on his subordinates?"

Lu Xiangsheng looked at Sun Jie nervously.

This matter is a bit too secretive, so if you don't ask it, you will feel uncomfortable in your heart.

"That's what he did on his own, this thing, it's like this..."

Sun Jie explained the ins and outs of the incident.

Hearing Sun Jie's words, Lu Xiangsheng couldn't help feeling angry, and shouted: "This kind of scourge that ignores human life should be killed, well done!"

In addition to cursing, there was a lot of doubt in my heart.

"Could it be that General Sun is not afraid that this matter will get out? Aren't you afraid of leaking secrets?!" Lu Xiangsheng looked at Sun Jie with some doubts.

Sun Jie didn't care, and said: "If you walk upright and sit up straight, what are you afraid of? Besides, there are quite a few people who know about the events of that day. If it spread, it would have spread already!"

"That's true!" Lu Xiangsheng nodded.

"By the way, General Sun is now the commander-in-chief of Shaanxi. I don't know what to do next?"

Lu Xiangsheng was suddenly curious about this matter.

"Walk one step at a time, what's the rush!" Sun Jie laughed.

The two said something else.

Lu Xiangsheng was very curious about Sun Jie. It is really rare that a young person can beat Jiannu like that.

With this kind of credit, if it is an ordinary person, it will be rampant if it dare not say that it is up to the sky.

Hong Chengchou kept instilling in Lu Xiangsheng that Sun Jie was a crazy person, but when he saw him today, he was very different.

I can't help but have some doubts about Hong Chengchou.

The matter of treating people alone has surpassed many people.

An hour later, Sun Jie sent Lu Xiangsheng out.

There are other things to be busy, and all the test papers for the exam have not been finished yet, so I have to focus on these things first.

Back in the study, I started to perfect the test papers that were published some time ago.

The basic board in Sun Jie's hands is getting bigger and bigger. The Civil and Military Senate, the Ji Senate and the following ministries must be completed first, and it is best to complete it before the Chinese New Year.

The gentry in Shaanxi have already signed up, and they are basically concentrated in the Guanzhong area, with the largest number in Xi'an Prefecture, with about 60 people.

Originally, there were more than these people, but Yang Lin deleted them.

Among them, 12 were Juren, 34 were scholars, and the rest were basically the owners of various accountants or certain shops.

Among the twelve juren, eight are Qin Shang, and the rest are ordinary juren.

Sun Jie is the commander-in-chief of Shaanxi, and his power is unmatched in this land of Shaanxi. These people are not fools, so they will naturally rush into it.

Sun Jiejie's questions are very complicated, covering people's livelihood, arithmetic, policy theory and so on.

The previous questions were almost done, and it didn't take long before the questions were finished.

Put these test papers in a cloth bag and hand them over to Chen Hu, asking him to send someone to deliver them to Yang Lin.

It was still early in the day, and Sun Jie wandered around the city.

In Xi'an today, there are no homeless or beggars.

Those who were homeless were basically sent to Fuping Fort.

Although the city looks a bit lonely, it is much better than before.

"What's going on with the Military Senate? You guys, have you decided on the candidates?"

Before returning to the modern era, Sun Jie gave an order to Chen Hu and the others.

Let them select capable officials from the army and fill them into the military senate and its subordinate ministries.

These people's backgrounds are not high, but after so many battlefield baptisms, they are much better than before.

Besides, after the new year, Sun Jie will train them.

"My lord, the selection is almost done, and it will be completed in a few days." Chen Hu replied.

"In this case, let's hurry up. After the new year, I will be busy!"

……

The snow in the sky was heavy again, and Sun Jie went back after staying outside for a short time.

Sitting in the study, a piece of rice paper was placed in front of him.

There are pencils and rulers and other things on it.

Now it is the general army of Shaanxi, and in the future, it will definitely use Xi'an Prefecture as its base camp.

The current Xi'an Fucheng is somewhat inappropriate. After a period of time, after consolidating power and recruiting troops, the current Xi'an Fucheng will be remodeled.

Thinking back to various places in Xi'an Fucheng, Sun Jie had a general idea in his mind.

However, to complete the reconstruction, the gentry in the city is a big problem.

Needless to say, Qin Shang and ordinary people have become one with Sun Jie. When Sun Jie gives an order, they will follow Sun Jie's instructions.

Those are the stubborn gentry. To complete the reconstruction, these stubborn gentry must be cleaned up.

"I hope you guys can be interesting, otherwise, don't blame me!"

Thinking of this, Sun Jie shook his head, put these thoughts behind him, and began to draw plans on the blueprint in front of him.

It's not too complicated, it is mainly divided into three areas.

The inner city is mainly for administrative functions, the outer city is mainly for residents' life, and the industrial area near the outer city.

Sun Jie can be sure that in the future, the population of Xi'an Fucheng will definitely increase dramatically.

Therefore, the area of ​​the residential area is relatively large, and the roads are relatively wide.

The desk lamp on the table is bright, and the north wind is bleak outside the window.

Although the winter nights are long, they will always be pierced by the sun.

In the blink of an eye, December 27th, the 11th year of Chongzhen, finally came to an end.

Shaanxi Gongyuan opened in the cold winter months.

Sun Jie put the test site here.

Today is the exam time.

There were about sixty people who came to take the exam standing at the gate of the Gongyuan.

There are gentry in fur and mink fur, and there are accountants or stewards in patched cloth.

Armored soldiers searched these people one by one, and after checking that they were correct, they were led in by special personnel.

The places to answer the test paper are those dormitories. During the cold winter months, Sun Jie had someone put a copper stove in each dormitory, and at the same time built a front door to block the wind.

Sun Jie didn't have the intention of torturing people. It's winter, so don't be frozen and have some problems before you finish the paper.

These people filed in and sat in corresponding rooms.

Sun Jie led people to patrol the dormitory.

It was almost time when everyone was seated.

The watch on Sun Jie's wrist came to twelve o'clock.

The armored soldiers took the test papers and distributed them one by one.

There are a lot of test papers, including answer sheets, seven or eight in total.

Not long after, the test papers were distributed.

Sun Jie stood in front of a row of dormitories and shouted: "The exam lasts for two days, which is similar to the rules of the township exam. During the two days of the exam, meals will be provided for you.

Plan your arrangement properly to avoid problems.During the exam, cheating is not allowed, offenders will be expelled from the exam room and banned for life! "

Most of these candidates are familiar with the rural examination, and they already have a general process in mind.

When Sun Jie's voice fell, they began to answer the paper.

Sun Jie patrolled here for a while, then went to sit in the classroom.

Although Kou Li has a good relationship with Sun Chuwen, he still has to take the exam.

He simply sorted out the test papers on the table, and then began to answer the papers.

Pull out a paper and put it on the table.

Looking at the title above, he frowned.

"The calamity of thieves is getting worse and worse, what's the solution?"

"Jiannu repeatedly broke through the customs and entered the bandits, why is the imperial court's frontier army so useless?"

"Jiannu arose between the white mountains and the black waters. They were originally from lowly and despicable backgrounds. Why did they become a serious problem for the imperial court?"

"The Southwest is rebellious and impermanent, how to solve it?"

This is a policy test paper, and one test paper has ten questions.

Looking at these questions, Kou Li frowned even tighter.

He had received the news very early on that this exam would not take a subset of classics and history, but focus on practical government affairs.

I have done a lot of homework before, and my vision is much higher than ordinary people, so I already have an idea in my heart.

Most people are still in a state of confusion.

Especially for those scholars, many people have never heard of the questions reflected on the topic, and they have no idea what they are talking about.

Sighs kept ringing.

Juren's news is more sensitive, and most of them know a thing or two.

However, some people are stupid in reading and reading. When writing to solve problems, they quote scriptures and discuss sages.

This kind of policy topic is okay, it won't at least be able to speak nonsense.

But when it comes to math problems, some people are confused.

Chickens and rabbits in the same cage are simple problems.

Sun Jie took some questions from "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic", and then improved them in combination with modern mathematics and the characteristics of this era.

The gentry from the Qin and Shang dynasties did not think that math problems were difficult, and business people were very sensitive to numbers.

Books like "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" are their must-read books, and Sun Jiejie's math problems are mainly practical, so most of them can be solved.

Sun Jie was sitting in the classroom drinking hot tea, and the snow outside was getting heavier.

Sun Chuanting came on snow and walked into the classroom.

"What's the situation? Is there anyone cheating?"

Sun Chuanting started a conversation and sat next to Sun Jie.

Sun Chuanting knew that there was an exam today, and Sun Jie had told him about it before.

Although he was surprised by the way Sun Jie chose his staff, he still came to have a look.

Putting down the teacup in his hand, he called Chen Hu to fetch another teacup and poured Sun Chuanting a cup of tea.

"There is no cheating yet, if you dare to cheat, you will be expelled immediately!" Sun Jie said calmly.

"That's how it should be. You can learn if you are not good at it. If you have bad conduct, you will be a disaster in the future!" Sun Chuanting picked up his teacup and took a sip.

Sun Jie asked, "Why is Mr. Sun free to come here today?"

"I don't have anything to do in the yamen, so I'll come and have a look. It's been a while since I was the governor of Shaanxi. Since you came, I have fewer and fewer things to do every day.

In the past, at the end of the year, I was overwhelmed with various things, but this year, I have almost nothing to do.

All the refugees outside the city were empty, the price of food in the city was also very stable, and there were no thieves or bandits around, so nothing happened! "

Sun Chuanting said.

This is the truth, Sun Jie solved many difficult things before.

"Your exam is a bit like an imperial exam!"

Sun Chuanting said such a sentence for no reason.

After finishing speaking, he stopped talking, and even his breathing became much smaller.

Of course Sun Jie could understand the implication of these words, he was just testing himself.

"Master Sun, what do you think of this imperial examination system? So what if you use stereotyped essays to select scholars?!"

Sun Jie diverted the topic by taking the imperial examination.

Seeing that Sun Jie avoided talking about it, Sun Chuanting didn't ask further questions.

He pinched the beard on his chin, thought for a while, and said: "The stereotyped essay began in the Chenghua period, and it hasn't had much time so far. The imperial examination has been around for a while, since the Sui Dynasty.

However, the imperial examination was only a tool used to deal with powerful families at that time.At that time, there were Jinshi subjects, Mingjing subjects and Mingfa subjects. "

Sun Chuanting, who was born as a literati, of course knew about these things.

Sun Chuanting went on to say: "The stereotyped essay has been criticized, it is undeniable that many capable and talented people have fallen for the stereotyped essay.

However, the eight-legged essay is the fairest and least favored by the chief examiner.

Starting from solving the problem, the following seven steps have strict requirements for each step. If the standard is met, you will naturally pass.

Standardize every step to death, and try to avoid the chief officer's preference as much as possible! "

"Master Sun, do you think that an official with an imperial examination background can govern the world well?

Nowadays, in the imperial court, many celebrities in imperial examinations cannot lift their shoulders or carry them with their hands.In the great Ming Dynasty, there were so many imperial examination scholars, but now, there are not many people who can lead troops to fight! "

Sun Jie sighed.

Sun Chuanting stopped talking because it was an ironclad fact.

After a long time, Sun Chuanting asked: "What kind of world do you want this world to be?!"

Sun Jie stood up, walked to the door, opened the door, and the wind and snow poured in.

Turning around, looking at Sun Chuanting, he said, "It's as strong as the Han and Tang Dynasties, and even farther than the Han and Tang Dynasties. I hope that the saying that wherever the sun and the moon go is Han soil is no longer empty talk!"

Sun Chuanting's pupils shrank.

Ambition is obvious.

The brazier at the foot was whistling, and a trace of ashes floated up.

"However, the Western Regions have been lost for more than 1000 years since the Tang Dynasty!" Sun Chuanting lowered his voice a little.

Sun Jie walked out, snow fell on his shoulders.

After a while, the hair and shoulders were dyed white.

Turning around, looking back at Sun Chuanting, he said, "That's not the Western Regions, that's Anxi, that's our Anxi, it's always been like this from ancient times to the present!"

The north wind was a little stronger, whistling, and the whistle was shrill.

Sun Chuanting walked on the way back, feeling agitated.

I don't know why, but Sun Jie's "rebellious" words today caused waves in his heart.

He stopped, looked to the west, and muttered in a low voice: "Could it be that he will take back Anxi like Emperor Taizu Gao took back Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures? It's just that his ambition..."

"Ugh!"

Suddenly he sighed again, and the turbulent mood dissipated a lot.

Back at the Yamen, sitting in the study, writing a secret letter to Chongzhen.

The letter said that Sun Jie was in business as usual, he had no intention of disobedience, he liked to drink and have fun, and he looked like a luxury without ambition.
