Emperor Liu Hong

() Due to Liu Hong's strength, those aristocratic families failed to prevent the implementation of the imperial examination in the end.

The matter of the imperial examination has been finalized, and it is scheduled to be held on the fifteenth day after two months.

Now, all the students and scholars in the capital are excited.The imperial examination, this is an opportunity they never dreamed of in the past.Anyone who passes the exam can be an official, regardless of their background, just their ability.Let them have the opportunity to apply what they have learned, and they all began to prepare for the imperial examination.

In two months, the big man is so big that in some places, even the news may not be able to pass through.The people there, if they get the news and come here, it will definitely be too late.

However, there was no other way to do this. Liu Hong was anxiously waiting for someone to hire, and he couldn't drag it any longer, so he could only feel sorry for those people.Fortunately, the imperial examination will be held in the future. As long as they have talents, they will never be buried.Although it didn't work this time, they still have a chance next time.

Liu Hong is now a hands-off shopkeeper.When the matter was confirmed, everyone in the city was looking forward to it, but Liu Hong handed over the matter to Liu Shu, and he stopped asking.

Liu Hong can ignore it and just wait for the imperial examination to start.Because he is the emperor, he is only responsible for moving his mouth.

But Liu Shu couldn't do this, there was only two months in total, time was tight and the task was heavy, so Liu Shu could only do his best.

He has to arrange everything one by one, and he has to consider all the links one by one.This time, Liu Shu was so busy that he almost didn't even have time to go home.He spends all day in his yamen, busy with various affairs.

But the imperial examination, after all, has never appeared.No matter how great Liu Shu's ability is, it is impossible for him to consider everything in such a short time by himself.

Originally, Liu Hong wanted to take advantage of this matter to exercise Liu Shu's abilities.After all, although he has not personally experienced the imperial examination.However, after all, he has the experience of the later generations, as long as he uses the later generations' system as a reference, or directly implements the later generations' system, it will definitely not make much difference.Therefore, it is most cost-effective to use this matter to exercise the abilities of Liu Shu and others.At the very least, there is no fear of things going irreparably wrong.

But when Liu Hong saw Liu Shu's red eyes, he couldn't bear it anymore.If it goes on like this, it is purely torturing people.So Liu Hong directly told Liu Wei what he knew, and asked him to go back and refer to it.

With Liu Hong's suggestion, the matter was much simpler, and finally there was no delay in the matter, so that the imperial examination was carried out as scheduled.

Originally, Liu Hong was worried that those aristocratic families and elites would jump out and make trouble.But unexpectedly, it was as if they had accepted their fate, and they didn't move anymore.

Through the inquiries of intelligence personnel, those family members felt that even in the exam, their family members had an absolute advantage.Regardless of the number of books or the education of famous teachers, these are not comparable to those from poor families.Therefore, they brought all the clansmen of the right age to take part in the imperial examination, and wanted to occupy the court in a fair and honest manner.

This belongs to Yangmou, and it is really not easy for ordinary people to deal with.But Liu Hong is not an ordinary person. After the imperial examination is completed, there will be a palace examination, which is all at Liu Hong's discretion.Whether to use or not to use depends on Liu Hong's decision.As long as Liu Hong's brain is not flooded and he blows a black whistle casually, their wishful thinking will not be successful.

However, this is a last resort after all. To solve the problem fundamentally, it is necessary to strengthen the education of poor children and ordinary people.From the starting point, they must not be allowed to fall behind the aristocratic family.

Since it was the first imperial examination, there was no time to build a special place.I just temporarily borrowed the site of the Taiyuan Academy to deal with this imperial examination first, and then build a special place for the imperial examination after the next imperial examination.

Although it was borrowed from the Tai Academy, the preparations for the imperial examination were quite complete.Although it is not possible for future generations to have one hut per person, the Taiyuan Academy is large enough, the distance between everyone is also very far, and there are special inspections, which should be able to prevent students from cheating.

Early in the morning on the [-]th day, all those who intend to take part in the imperial examinations gathered at the gate of Taiyuan Academy.After being searched and checked by special soldiers, those who have no prohibited items behind can enter the venue.Then, find his seat according to the number he got when he started, and then just wait for the exam.

After all the candidates entered the arena, the soldiers closed the gate of the Tai Academy.Then, he took out the test questions that Liu Hong had prepared in advance, confirmed that the mud seal was intact, and that it was impossible to leak the test questions in advance, and dismantled them in public to inform the candidates of the questions.

Liu Hong pays full attention to practicality, and he also adheres to this principle in writing the questions.The first question is Reform, and he wants to pass these candidates and provide himself with some inspiration.The second question is to be an official. This is to examine the ability of these candidates.The third question is, if there is a civil uprising in your jurisdiction, how do you deal with it.This question is completely a test of the students' adaptability.

The exam questions are issued one by one. There are three days of exam time in total, one question per day.During this period, everyone is not allowed to go out, and all eating, drinking and lazards are handled in Taiyuan College.Only when the exam is completely completed can one walk out of the gate of Taiyuan Academy.

Speaking of it, the test questions given by Liu Hong are not difficult.After all, he is seriously short of people now, as long as he is close, he will be admitted.But the simpler the test questions, the more they test the students' mentality.The three small test questions can basically tell a person's character. If it suits your taste, you can cultivate it well in the future.

After the examination was completed, in order to prevent the examiners from cheating, this imperial examination directly implemented the ambiguous name system for later generations.And just to be on the safe side, just like later generations, someone copied the test papers and then used them for grading, so as to prevent cheating due to handwriting and other reasons.

With these measures, the imperial examination can basically guarantee fairness.The people selected in this way can basically meet Liu Hong's needs.

There is no standard answer for Liu Hong's question this time. It's all a matter of the beholder's opinion and the wisdom of the wise.How to evaluate in the end depends on whether the candidates can impress the examiners.

Of course, in order to avoid mistakes and omissions, each test paper must be reviewed by more than two examiners.And if there is a dispute, the higher-level examiner must confirm it again, so as not to miss any talent.

The exam is considered complete, and the students can leave the academy.But the task of those examiners is just beginning now.There are so many exam papers, which are copied and reviewed, they will never be able to complete them in a short time.But in order to ensure that they will not cheat, they can only stay in the Tai Academy until all the examination papers are completed.So in order to be able to go out early, all the marking officers are desperately marking the papers.

The examiners are working hard, and Liu Hong is not idle now. After reading many students' views on the reform, Liu Hong has been greatly inspired. He is now working hard on the reform of the official system.
