Chapter 137: Respectful Xie Jin, secretly happy Ye Xuan
The activity in the restaurant ended and the crowd gradually dispersed.
Ye Xuan admired his beautiful wife and thought, her wife is really suitable for this hairpin. She is bright and generous, gorgeous and dazzling, but not cheap, so beautiful.
Xie Jin looked around.
He hesitated.
Finally decided to step forward.
"Sir, is this the examiner Ye Xuan who was responsible for the previous examinations, palace examinations and examiner examinations?"
Ye Xuan was interrupted from admiring the beauty of his wife, and felt quite unhappy. He turned to look at Xie Jin, who was looking modest, and then nodded in reply:
"Exactly.
"It's really Mr. Ye!"
"Mr. Ye, student Xie Jin is very polite."
Xie Jin quickly gave a student salute to Ye Xuan. He is still a student scholar now.
Ye Xuan had an official position and had served as an imperial examination examiner. In addition, Ye Xuan was still a "famous" person, so Xie Jin was extremely respectful to Ye Xuan.
When Ye Xuan saw this famous talent in history, he saluted himself with great respect.
I felt quite happy.
People like Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao have higher status than themselves.
It’s not easy to be shy at ordinary times.
Now I finally met someone whose status was inferior to mine.
And this man is still the future big boss of the court.
However, now he is still a younger brother within a younger brother.
"Sir, you are indeed knowledgeable and talented, and I am ashamed of myself."
Xie Jin said with admiration, and then muttered, "No wonder sir can come up with those weird questions."
Ye Xuan didn't hear his last sentence clearly. Seeing him complimenting himself, Ye Xuan also praised the other person in a polite manner.
"You're so young."
"But he was able to tie with me in the couplet."
"Apparently literary."
"In the future, you will definitely be able to show off your skills in the court."
Xie Jin's face flushed with excitement. He didn't expect that this "famous" examiner would speak so highly of him, and he was so excited and happy for a moment.
"Sir, I am preparing to take the Children's Student Examination after the new year, obtain merit, and serve the country."
"How did you know that I wanted to take the imperial examination~.?"
Ye Xuan smiled.
Not only did he know this, he also knew most of the things in Xie Jin's life.
Later, Ye Xuan said perfunctorily:
"Any scholar who doesn't want to gain fame and fortune and serve the country."
"You should study hard for the exam."
Ye Xuan encouraged him.
The ancient imperial examinations were not easy. They were divided into children's examination, rural examination, general examination and palace examination.
Tongshi is also a boy's test.
Divided into three stages.
County examination, government examination, and hospital examination.
County examinations are held in each county and are managed by the county magistrate.
The government examination is presided over by officials within the government.
Only by passing these two exams can one be called a "tongsheng".
The first person is called the head of the case.
Those who pass are called students.
That is, scholars.
Rural examination.
It is a provincial level examination.
The test is to pass the exam.
It is held by the Chief Envoys and the North and South Zhili.
once three years.
It is held every year of Zi, Wu, Mao and You.
Also known as Xiangwei.
Take the exam at Gongyuan.
The exam period is in August in the fall.
Therefore, it is also called Qiuwei.
Those who pass the provincial examination are called candidates.
The first place is Jieyuan.
Will try.
A national examination administered by the Ministry of Rites.
Also known as Li Wei.
Held in the second year of the provincial examination.
That is, Chen, Xu, and Weinian.
During the examination, candidates from all over the country would gather in the capital to take the examination.
The exam period is February in spring.
Therefore, it is also called Chunwei.
Those who pass the examination are called Gongshi.
The first one is Huiyuan.
The palace examination, also known as the court examination, is usually presided over by the emperor himself and is held after the general examination.
The emperor usually takes a test on current affairs.
Then admitted.
Those admitted are divided into top three.
There are three people in one class.
Grant the title of Jinshi.
The first place is the top pick, the second place is the second place, and the third place is the top pick.
The second and third grades are given to Jinshi.
Regardless of whether they are first, second or third grade, they are all called Jinshi.
The imperial examination originated from the Sui Dynasty.
In order to consolidate their rule, strengthen centralization, etc., the imperial examination system was replaced by the nine-grade Zhongzheng system for a period of time.
By the time of the Tang Dynasty.
The subjects of the imperial examinations became more numerous.
There are no less than dozens of types of imperial examinations before and after.
The standing subjects include: Scholars, Jinshi, Mingzi, Mingfa, Mingsuan, Mingjing, Tongzi, Daoju, Yishi, etc.
In addition, there are also the system and martial arts examinations.
The martial arts examination is easy to understand, it is to select the top martial arts scholar with strong martial arts skills.
The system of subjects is to conduct special examinations and select special talents.
After the Song Dynasty, the imperial examination system was continuously reformed, and the imperial examination system gradually became perfect during the Song Dynasty.
The cultural prosperity of the Northern Song Dynasty was pushed to the highest peak of feudal society.
By the Ming Dynasty, the imperial examination had formed a complete system, with the Four Books and Five Classics as the teaching materials.
The content of the examination was also limited to Confucian classics, with sentences from the Four Books as the topic, and the format of the article was specified as an eight-legged essay. The analysis of the topic must be based on Zhu Xi's "Collected Commentary on the Four Books".
These children's examinations, provincial examinations, general examinations, and palace examinations are undoubtedly comparable to the examinations that ordinary people take at various stages such as elementary school, junior high school, high school, and university.
It's not easy.
Moreover, the imperial examinations of the Ming Dynasty clearly required that one should be familiar with or even memorize the Four Books and Five Classics, and be able to write good eight-part essays, otherwise it would be impossible to pass the exam.
The whole process of taking exams such as the Children's Examination and the Provincial Examination takes three years.
So the exam is held every three years.
After the palace examination is over, the examination will begin again after the new year.
"."Well, the students will definitely do their best!"
Encouraged by Ye Xuan, Xie Jin nodded heavily.
He thought that the examiner who asked those weird questions must be a weird person.
However, he did not expect Ye Xuan to speak so easily, which was beyond his expectation.
There is also less fear in my heart.
Xie Jin is very confident.
I feel that I am very talented.
However, when I saw the test questions Ye Xuan posted before, I couldn't help but doubt myself.
Is this really what ordinary candidates have to take?
The imperial examination system of the Ming Dynasty tested Confucian classics and unpopular knowledge such as astronomy, geography, and arithmetic.
Even if Xie Jin is very talented.
He is only very good at Confucianism.
"After the new year, you will take part in the children's examination, and after that (Mo's Zhao) there will be the provincial examination, the general examination and the palace examination."
"During the general examination, Mr. Ye Xuan might still be the examiner..."
Xie Jin looked at Ye Xuan in front of him and secretly decided in his heart that if he met Ye Xuan as the examiner to give questions, then he would definitely be able to master questions such as astronomy, geography, arithmetic, etc.
He still has time now.
After New Year's Eve, he immediately went back to study astronomy, geography, arithmetic and other knowledge.
I believe that he will be able to learn astronomy, geography, arithmetic and other contents before the examination. When the time comes, even if Ye Xuan becomes the examiner to ask questions, he will not have to be afraid.
"It would be nice if I could try the questions asked by Lord Ye Xuan myself later."
This thought suddenly appeared in Xie Jin's heart.
He wanted to see if the questions Ye Xuan asked were really not so crazy.
Ye Xuan looked at Xie Jin and felt happy in his heart.
Fortunately, he traveled through time to be an examiner, not a candidate.
After all, candidates have to memorize the Four Books and Five Classics, which is enough to give people a headache.
