Da Qin: I exposed myself as a time traveler, why are you Zhao Gao panicking?

Chapter 212: Imperial Examination Fraud? !

Fusu looked around and saw students from various schools such as Confucianism, Mohism, Taoism, and Legalism, either sitting or standing. They were debating in low voices or giving speeches loudly. Every word was pearl-like and every sentence was sonorous. The style of hundreds of families.

The students were all energetic and high-spirited, as if the entire future of Da Qin was condensed in this small examination room.

He looked around and saw students from Confucianism, Mohism, Taoism, and Legalism gathered together to argue with each other.

They either made impassioned speeches, or spoke eloquently, or quoted from classics, or quoted from other sources, each expounding their own academic concepts and strategies for governing the country.

I saw a Confucian scholar holding a scripture in his hand and saying in a loud voice: "Confucianism is based on benevolence and etiquette as the key link, so that it can govern the country and bring peace to the world. Therefore, we should practice etiquette with a heart of benevolence and love to transform the people into customs."

A Mohist retorted: "Confucianism attaches great importance to etiquette and despises profit, but the people live in poverty, so why talk about etiquette? Mohism advocates universal love rather than aggression, and advocating for unity and respecting the virtuous is the way to govern the country."

The Taoist student chuckled lightly, shook his head and said: "Taoism is natural and governs by doing nothing. Confucianism and Mohism all govern by doing something and forcing things on the people is not a long-term solution."

Legalist scholars said seriously: "The country is governed by law, with the law as the teaching and the officials as the teachers. Only severe punishment and strict laws can maintain order and ensure peace."

Students from the four schools expressed their own opinions and refused to give in to each other!

Some of them were blushing, or nodding their heads, or laughing so hard.

The entire examination room was filled with a strong academic atmosphere and a lively debate atmosphere.

When Fusu saw this, he couldn't help but admire it secretly.

What kind of examination room is this? It is clearly a gathering of heroes from the future of Great Qin!

He couldn't help but murmur to himself: "I wonder how many talents this time... can bring to the Qin Dynasty!"

……

Above the court, the atmosphere was as solemn as iron, and all the ministers stood in silence, waiting for the Ancestral Dragon Holy Judgment.

The imperial examination ceremony has just come to an end, and the aftertaste is still lingering, but the focus at this moment has turned to important matters such as marking test papers.

Qin Chi knew the weight of this matter.

He stepped out steadily, bowed and saluted, and said in a loud and clear voice: "Your Majesty, the imperial examination has been successfully concluded. The test papers are numerous and need to be reviewed urgently."

There was a hint of imperceptible solemnity in his words. After all, it was related to the fate of countless scholars and Qin Ting's talent selection plan.

Zulong sat on the emperor's couch, his eyes like torches, scanning the officials.

He nodded slightly, indicating that he already understood Qin Chi's report.

Immediately, he asked in a deep voice: "My dear, in your opinion, how should the examination papers be reviewed to ensure fairness and impartiality?"

Qin Chi was well prepared. He took a deep breath and slowly revealed his plan: "Your Majesty clearly knows that in order to ensure fairness and impartiality, I propose to set up a special marking place, and the marking group will be composed of important ministers and learned people in the court. "

“Exam papers should be marked anonymously to avoid any form of favoritism!”

“In addition, strict grading processes and standards need to be developed to ensure that every exam paper can be judged objectively and fairly!”

When Zu Long heard this, a hint of approval flashed in his eyes.

He was well aware of Qin Chi's rigor and fairness and was quite satisfied with this suggestion.

He nodded slightly and said in a deep voice: "What Ai Qing said is true, so let's handle it accordingly. We must ensure that the review work is fair and impartial, so as to live up to the expectations of the scholars in the world!"

Qin Chi accepted the order, and the big stone hanging in his heart finally fell to the ground.

He knew that the next review work would be a tough battle, but with Li Si helping him, it wouldn't be a big problem!

Then, Qin Chi changed the topic and said, "Your Majesty, I have something else to report!"

Zulong's eyes were calm, his face was calm, and he asked slowly: "If there is anything else, please tell me."

"I believe that in order to educate talents and promote culture and education, we should establish Taixue, the highest institution of higher learning in the Qin Dynasty, and also take charge of the national education and administration." Qin Chi spoke loudly, and as soon as he said these words, there was a sudden silence in the court hall!

All the ministers looked at him with bright eyes, waiting for the next words.

Appeared!

Lord Tingwei’s new words!

And Zulong was also sitting on the emperor's couch, his gaze like a torch directed towards Qin Chi.

He leaned forward slightly and put his hands on his knees. He was obviously very interested in Qin Chi's proposal!

Qin Chi felt the gaze of Zu Long and the ministers, took a deep breath, and continued: "The purpose of Taixue is not only to teach knowledge, but also to cultivate officials with both ability and political integrity to safeguard the country and the people. Students are here, You should study the classics and cultivate virtue to prepare yourself for the country.”

The words were still ringing in his ears. All the officials in the court were moved, and Zulong also stared deeply in thought.

People of insight secretly think...

Is this discussion of Imperial College similar to the Jixia Academy of Qi State in the past?

Everyone looked up and saw Qin Chi standing solemnly at the head of the court class, majestic and confident, as if he had a plan in mind.

Zulong pondered for a long time, then slowly spoke, with a loud voice like a bell: "Ai Qing, what are the differences and differences between the Taixue you mentioned and the Jixia Academy of Qi?"

As soon as these words came out, the court fell silent, and all the ministers focused on Qin Chi, waiting for the explanation.

Qin Chi cupped his hands and replied: "Your Majesty has learned clearly that the establishment of Taixue is based on teaching knowledge, but more importantly, it focuses on cultivating officials with both ability and political integrity to safeguard the country and the people. Students are here to study classics and cultivate virtues to prepare for the country." purpose."

"This is similar to Jixia Academy, but there are differences. Jixia Academy advocates academic freedom, while Taixue also takes charge of national education administration and focuses on educating talents for the country."

"Furthermore, the officials of the Taixue, such as the Jijiujiu and the Siye, must not only be proficient in classics, but also be able to manage government affairs. They should be responsible for supervising academic affairs, formulating educational policies, and supervising the conduct of academic studies. This is how Taixue is different from those of Jixia Academy. !”

When Zulong heard this, his face lit up slightly and he nodded in approval.

The ministers also nodded one after another, thinking that what Qin Chi said was appropriate.

An experienced and prudent minister came forward and said: "Your Majesty, Lord Qin has far-reaching plans. The establishment of the Imperial College is actually the foundation of the prosperity of our great Qin. This proposal should be carried out immediately to promote culture and education and educate talents."

As soon as these words were spoken, there were echoes in the court.

Zulong nodded, looking calmly at Qin Chi: "Ai Qing, please continue and tell us about this Taixue in detail!"

Qin Chi then elaborated on the functions of Taixue: "In Taixue, officials such as wine ministers and business administrators must not only be proficient in classics, but also be able to manage government affairs."

"They are the prime ministers of academic affairs, formulating educational policies, and supervising the academic activities of officials to ensure the prosperity of the country's culture and education."

"In addition, Taixue should also inherit the cultural heritage and enable students to study classics, history, literature and art, so as to cultivate the pillars of the Qin Dynasty with high moral character, talent and learning."

After Zu Long heard this, his face was filled with joy and he nodded solemnly: "Good! What I love you has planned is very good! Immediately start preparing for the Imperial Academy to educate talents and prosper our Qin Dynasty!"

After finishing speaking, the sound of shouting "Long Live the Mountain" suddenly shook the heaven and the earth above the court!

……

Soon, the three-day period passed, and it was time for the imperial examination results to be released!

The yellow list is high, the crowd is crowded, and the students are eager to wait and see with hope!

However, the names on the list were all students from the south, and no scholar from the north had passed the exam!

Seeing that there was no one on the list, all the students from the north were shocked and couldn't control their anger!

In an instant, the crowd surged, and northern scholars rushed to the front of the list, criticizing and commenting one after another!
