Chapter 562
Therefore, as soon as the imperial court's list of Enke scholars was announced, it caused a great sensation inside and outside the capital.

All of a sudden, there was a constant flow of scholars in the capital, and the inns and restaurants were full of people, talking about Enke's selection of scholars this time.

Although due to the war, the number of scholars who can participate in Enke will be much less than before, but after all, the world is rich in culture, and the base of scholars is already large, so after the two-month registration period, the final decision to take the exam There are also more than 1000 scholars.

When this number was reported, Jiang Chuan also felt that it was a bit unexpected.

The exam questions were suggested by Jiang Chuan, compiled by the cabinet, and finalized by Jiang Chuan.

The ENCO exam is divided into three parts:
The first part is the policy theory test: the questions are divided into two big questions.The first big question is the view on the current situation in the world, including the analysis and judgment of various forces, including advantages and disadvantages, etc.Of course, the object of analysis does not include the imperial court represented by Jiang Chuan.

The purpose of this question is naturally the examinee's concern and understanding of the general trend of the world, as well as his tendency to judge his thoughts.

The second question is a specific practical question.Taking the serious problem of land mergers in the world today as the topic, let candidates analyze the reasons, and then propose solutions from the perspective of policymakers.

The second part is the basic knowledge of mathematics and the investigation of the geography and humanities knowledge of Zhongzhou.

The main purpose of this part of the assessment is naturally to judge the candidate's basic governance ability and common sense of humanities, so as to avoid the kind of high-scoring low-energy who can only talk high-spirited but doesn't even know the basic common sense of life or humanities.

The third part is the physical fitness test.The physical fitness test is divided into two parts: the first is the endurance test.Simply put, it's running.

Running laps on a designated military camp field, anyone who can complete the specified number of laps within the specified time will be considered a pass.

Although Jiang Chuan was looking for talent, he didn't want the kind of weak scholar who had no strength to restrain a chicken.He wants these people to work, not to enjoy wealth.

If your physical fitness is too poor, you definitely can't ask for it.

The second piece is horseback riding and archery.This is an optional question.You can take the test or not.If you can pass, you can get extra points.

Under the temptation of extra points, many people still choose to take the exam.Although most of them behaved horrible, either fell off the horse, or couldn't even draw the bow.

Even if he barely got on the horse and drew the bow, the arrow would end up somewhere unknown.

This question is actually a test of the candidate's martial arts spirit.

Moreover, there is no limit to the number of admissions for Enke Scholars this time, as long as the total score exceeds the passing line, they will be admitted.

Therefore, before the start of the exam, the candidates in the capital were all gearing up and excited.Even people who were originally only scholars and were not qualified to go to Beijing for the exam had a chance, and the favorability of the scholars for Jiang Chuan, the regent, rose a lot.

Although the imperial court also released rumors before, telling everyone that the method and content of the exam will be greatly changed, but it did not elaborate.

Many scholars who are familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics, are proficient in classics and righteousness, and are proficient in stereotyped essays are still full of self-confidence and a sense of superiority, thinking that everything changes and remains the same.No matter how it changes, it will be within the framework of the Four Books and Five Classics.

But when the exam started, most people were dumbfounded.

Just the first question left them scratching their heads and feeling overwhelmed. Even if they were asked to look through the books, they couldn't find the answer at all.

These scholars usually have their eyes high above the top. For Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong is full of disdain for the bandits. Origin, development and present day situation.

Even if you know something, it's mostly hearsay, rumours, or even demonized news.

Not to mention the Zheng family forces in the south.

This is not the Internet age of later generations. The real thing is that a scholar can know the world without going out.Although the printing industry in this world is very developed, but because of the wars and the backwardness of communication methods, coupled with the general pomp and arrogance of scholars, few people have a special understanding of these things.

Under such circumstances, the result is naturally predictable.

Those scholars who were originally confident came out, all of them looked depressed, dejected, and complained constantly.

After the second part of the exam came out, it was even more like a mourning exam.

Because arithmetic is something that cannot be put on the table in the eyes of ordinary scholars, and many people don't even bother to learn it.

The general knowledge of geography and humanities is not introduced much in general books, and many of them can only be learned by scholars on study tours.This makes those scholars who can only sit at home and study scriptures hard, and practice stereotyped essays to collapse.

By the time of the third part of the physical fitness test, less than half of the original number of people had come to take part.

Although Enke did not adopt the elimination system this time, everyone is eligible to participate in all three exams.However, many people were completely discouraged by the blows of the previous two games, and they were unwilling to participate in the next one.

After the third exam was over, very few of the scholars who came to the exam had smiles on their faces, and most of them were mournful and looked hopeless, and some even limped back.

That was when I fell off a horse and sprained my foot or broke my leg.

In this case, the final admission result can be imagined.

The test papers were reviewed by the cabinet and several ministers handpicked by Jiang Chuan, including Su Qin. The method of cross-checking was adopted. At least three examiners had to read each test paper before finalizing the grade.

Even if Jiang Chuan and all the ministers had been mentally prepared this time, it was an Enke with hasty preparation after all, and the form and content of the exam had undergone earth-shaking changes, the result would definitely not be very good.

However, although there was no quota limit and the admission line was set quite low, less than 100 scholars were finally admitted.

The acceptance rate can be said to be less than one-tenth, which is already the examiners trying to be merciful.

Looking at this number, the examiners all looked at each other in blank dismay, thinking about how to explain to the Prince Regent.After all, it took two or three months with great fanfare, and finally this person was recorded, and everyone was a little ashamed.

However, when Xia Junze, the chief minister of the cabinet, sent the list to Jiang Chuan with anxiety, Jiang Chuan did not show any disappointment, but said in surprise: "This number has exceeded my imagination. I originally thought that , 50 people can be admitted is too much."

Only then did Xia Junze feel relieved. It seemed that His Royal Highness the Prince Regent was fully prepared for the outcome of Enke this time.

However, although there are not many people, among the 100 people, there are still [-]st, [-]nd, and [-]rd grades. In terms of terms, they are the first, second, and third grades.

One is the top ten, and the other is No.11 to No.30.The rest are top three.

In fact, the examiners had already assigned the ranks, and they were waiting for Jiang Chuan to approve after reading it.

Moreover, Jiang Chuan usually only reads the top ten papers of the first class, so the top ten test papers of the first class are sent along with the admission list.

Jiang Chuan scanned the list in front of him, looking from bottom to top.

When he saw the top row, a name locked his eyes.
