Daming: Wanted to be a small landlord, but was forced to ascend the throne

Chapter 306
Seeing Zhang Cong's expression, Qin Shao knew that he should be doing well.

Qin Shao is well aware of his strength. His basic skills are quite solid. As long as he doesn't go too far and excels at some free play questions, he won't be a problem to be a Jinshi.

The two made a big dinner and chatted about the daily life.

It's not as tense as it was after the first round.

After all, the third game was much easier than the first two games.

On the ninth day of April, the third exam began.

This time the test is policy questions.

The policy question is to give you a piece of material, and the candidates will answer the questions after reading it and then write their own opinions.

It is said that the third test is easier than the first two, because the third test is equivalent to additional questions.

The examiner mainly looks at the first two exams.

But even though it was an additional question, a good answer would be the icing on the cake.

If the answer is too bad, it will also have an impact.

In addition to the second game, Zhang Cong suffered a loss in the early years, this game is also an important reason.

Back then, Tang Bohu and Xu Jing were also implicated in this fraud case, and the great talent Tang Bohu fell down. It's a pity, it's time!Fate!
April tenth.

Because the third session was relatively simple, candidates had already started sorting out the test papers in the morning, and handed in papers one after another at noon.

As for the results, we can only wait for the examiners to mark the papers.

Candidates finish the exam here, and everything is fine. As for the results, they can be said to be left to fate.

The busy work on the marking side has just begun.

After the candidates hand in the test papers, the examiner who collects the test papers will classify the candidates' test papers according to the different scriptures they are dealing with, and then send them to the sealed place.

The sealing official stamps the folded corner of the name with the official stamp, and a specialist sends the scroll to the transcription officer.

The transcription officer asked a special clerk to transcribe the scrolls completely with red pen.

What the officials who corrected the papers can see is the copied copy, which was originally sealed by the newspaper officials.

In this way, it can prevent the examiner from cheating based on the examinee's handwriting, and eliminate the possibility of collusion inside and outside the examination room.

The transcription is also very rigorous. In order to avoid mistakes, two people are usually in a group, and the two read it word by word to ensure that everything is safe before handing it in sealed.

Therefore, the test papers in the hands of the test examiners are lifeless, and there are no marks or omissions, which ensures fairness as much as possible.

In the process of transcribing, the transcription officer is actually a process of revising the paper.

In the process of transcribing, they will check whether there are taboos in the test paper or whether there is any information about themselves disclosed in it, whether the number of words conforms to the regulations, whether the paper is clean and tidy, whether the draft is handed in, etc.

If that happens, even if you fail in the first round, it will be useless even if you answer the other content well, you can only wait for the next time.

However, this kind of test paper is usually signed by several people to prove that it is unqualified. The guarantee is fair and if the examinee has doubts, it is better to testify.

The next thing is the time for the paper correction officer to do the paper correction. The time for paper correction is tight and the tasks are heavy, and Tongtong has to work non-stop all night long.

This is related to the increase in the number of people who will take the exam every year.

In the early Ming Dynasty, the number of people who would take the test was generally around 1500, but now it reaches [-] to [-] people every year.

For example, Qin Shao participated in the test this time, and 4778 people participated.

There are nearly 300 test papers that fall into the hands of each fellow examiner. One test paper needs to be corrected by several fellow examiners. It is very hard to grade nearly 7 words every day.

And I have to write twenty or thirty comments on the test papers I admire, which is a lot of work.

This test will start from the second day of junior high school and end on the tenth day of junior high school.

Generally, the list will be filled out on the 23th and [-]th, and the list will be released on the [-]rd.

There are only more than ten days before the end of the exam, so the candidates who take the exam will wait for the list.

While waiting, many candidates will communicate with each other, and some people will hold some banquets to invite them to participate in order to win over these candidates.

It can be said that it is a small feast for three days, and a big feast for five days!

Qin Shao has actually been invited many times, especially Huguang Guild Hall. His name is very famous. After all, he is Huguang Xiaosiyuan. There are still many people who want to make friends, especially some Huguang officials in Beijing who also want to win over.

It's just that he rarely showed up, including many people invited him in Huguang before, but he rarely showed up except for some banquets in Anlu Prefecture.

Therefore, in the Huguang Guild Hall in Shangjing, it can be said that Qin Shao only heard about Qiming, but never saw him.

Some of them also posted a post, but no one knew where he lived, so they left it alone.

It has never appeared once, so many people are still more curious.

Some people even wondered whether Qin Shao was too ugly, hard to see people or had a name for nothing.

As for Zhang Cong, he let go of his previous arrogance and went to the Shangjing Guild Hall of Zhejiang Province to socialize with a group of fellow villagers.

In fact, his name is also very famous in Zhejiang Province, that is, he has been defeated many times, and he has a bad temper.

However, in the past two years, Zhang Cong's changes have also been noticed by Zhejiang Provincial Juzi. Many people feel that Zhang Cong has made a 180-degree turn and changed a person.

He used to belittle those who liked to see his jokes, but gradually put away his contempt.

After all, there are many changes in the imperial examinations, and those who can be admitted to Juren are regarded as the favored ones of heaven.

Smart people also began to smile at Zhang Cong and communicate normally.

As for the examiner, the "examination banquet", "curtain banquet", and "examination banquet" take up a lot of time. When correcting the paper, the first scripture paper is more important, and the scriptures are well done. It is basically an eight-point success.

Therefore, it is not groundless that the eight-legged essays in the imperial examinations of the Ming Dynasty are selected for scholars.

But after Qin Shao understood the situation here, he had a different view on the historical criticism stereotyped essays he had learned in the past.

Even though stereotyped essays are a bit rigid, it is impossible to write good stereotyped essays and stand out among so many essays without any real skills!

Just like many people in previous lives argued that high education does not necessarily mean ability, and many people without education are also successful.

But this is only a matter of proportion. From a large proportion, people with a high degree of education also have a high IQ.

There are so many people to choose from, no one has the time and money to prove that you are a capable person without a degree!
Therefore, under the social background of Daming, Qin Shao felt that the scientific examination of stereotyped candidates was actually a very fair and just method.

Those officials who pass the Jinshi examination and enter the imperial court every year basically have students from low-level poor families. Isn't this relatively fair?
April nineteenth.

Start filling out the list.

Each room gathers together with the examiner and chief examiner.This time it is to fill in the draft list.

Starting from the 19th place, fill in the test paper number in the draft list, and check the numbers on the Zhujuan and Mojuan. After they are correct, seal the Zhujuan and Mojuan, and wait until the [-]th to officially fill in the list.

On the [-]th, start to fill in the second list.

On the 21st, fill in the first list, that is, the top list.The first list starts from six, and the examiner has the right to decide the ranking from No.6 to No.18.

The top five candidates need to be unanimously agreed by everyone, and the examiner has the right to refute the five candidates set by the chief examiner. Every fellow examiner hopes that the five candidates will come out of their own room, after all, the one who comes out of the same room is themselves Students who pass the exam will naturally fall into the same school as the examiner.

The election of Wu Jingkui must be approved by everyone, so open and secret struggles are naturally unavoidable.

In fact, the 22nd is already the time for the announcement of the list. At night, some newspapers will know the famous candidates on the list through gossip, so that they can go to the candidates to ask for happy money!

Therefore, on the fourth watch, it has become a habit for Juzi and servants to wait and see at the gate of the Gongyuan to post the poster.

In the past two days, the nighttime in Beijing was as lively as the daytime.

After many years of cold weather, no one can sleep peacefully until dawn.

"Master! I want to see the list!"

In the evening, Wang Yin talked to Qin Shao.
