All the test papers were copied a few days ago. Originally, I planned to set aside half a day for grading the papers, and wait until tomorrow morning to publish the results. However, today the old emperor is in a good mood, and the results will be reviewed and summarized immediately.
Including Li Yi, Guozijian Ph.D. in Computing, all the students in computing, and even Fatty King Jin personally checked the papers. It only took a while, and all 120 test papers were read.
"How?" Emperor Jing came over, looked at Li Yi and asked.
Holding a list in his hand, Li Yi said, "One hundred and twenty students, twenty-one who failed."
Emperor Jing took the list, glanced at it briefly, frowned, and said, "Are they all the children of official families?"
"Yes." Li Yi nodded and said, "In today's exam, there are not a few students from poor families who got full marks, and none of them failed."
Over the years, Emperor Jing wanted to support the children of poor families. He knew that they often worked harder than the children of aristocratic families because of their family background. Although they lacked resources, with their acquired efforts, they frequently excelled in the imperial examinations.
On the other hand, among the rich and powerful families, arrogance, extravagance and licentiousness are prevalent among the children, and there are many moths, which are unbearable to use.
However, the last time the enrollment of the college was calculated, it was originally biased towards the poor. If these 20 people were expelled again, there would be a lot of opposition from the court.
What's more, among these people, the boy of the Wang family and the nephew of Concubine Yan were all agreed to by him not long ago. If they were cleared out on the first day of school, he, the emperor, would also face the consequences. dull.
But in front of so many people just now, he had already agreed to Li Yi's request, so you can't take it back right now.
"People are not sages, and no one has faults... Your Majesty, according to Chen, you might as well give them another chance and let them study in the School of Mathematical Sciences for three months. Just clear them out, and never hire them again." Li Yi thought for a while, looked at Emperor Jing and said.
During the New Year's Eve, he visited many relatives of the Li family. Among the twenty-one people, several of them had met. The two businesses have just started to cooperate, so it is not good not to give face to the Wang family. In addition, the kid surnamed Zheng seems to have something to do with the concubine Yan.
Of course, you can't deliberately keep this group of unsatisfactory guys, otherwise you won't be able to convince the public, and all students should be treated equally.
After all, impartiality, fairness and justice, this is his principle of doing things...
"Knowing mistakes can be corrected, there is nothing good about it..." Emperor Jing looked at Li Yi with satisfaction, nodded, and said, "That's very good, let's give them a chance, so as not to say that the college has no room for people."
"But, look, Your Majesty, this Qin Zhong, Chen Hao..." Li Yi pointed to the names of the two people, and said, "It's too unreasonable to even have a score of 100 on the test paper."
Qin Zhong, the eldest son of the third house of the Qin family, Chen Hao, a certain young master of the side house of the Chen family, Emperor Jing glanced at him, and said indifferently: "The rotten wood cannot be carved, these two people, let's just drive them out!"
Li Yi counted with his fingers, thirteen minus two, there are still a dozen more? The big head is still behind, don't worry, the future will be long.
But today can only stop here, after all, it must be fair and just...
…
…
The results of the entrance examination are posted on a high wall in the Faculty of Mathematical Sciences. According to a doctor, this wall will be dedicated to posting test results in the future.
"Congratulations, brother Wang, with full marks!"
"Brother He, don't make fun of it, why not you."
"Hey, it's a pity, it's a one point difference, that question, I clearly saw it yesterday!"
…
…
All the students gathered under the wall to chat and laugh. At this time, the grades had been posted, and it was clear at a glance whether they were qualified or not. Most of them breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, they competed with their friends because of the grades.
Of course, this wall is a roll of honor to some and a pillar of shame to others.
Wang Dan stood in the corner, his face flushed red, he was so ashamed that he wished he could get into a crack in the ground.
In the past few months, he only cared about playing, so he flipped through a few pages of the book at the beginning. Only a score of 60 is considered a pass. He didn't even pass half of the exam, so he might be sent back today.
He couldn't imagine what kind of reprimand and ridicule he would face after returning home.
A fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy beside him patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I'm worse than you in the test. At worst, I'll just be kicked out. Who wants to stay in this crappy place? After I get out, We can do whatever we want, no one cares..."
Wang Dan nodded, and he was expelled as soon as he was expelled. At most, he received a little punishment and ridicule. In comparison, staying in this academy and facing the person he offended every day is even more difficult. terrible.
He, he even dared to fight Brother Qin and His Highness the King of Shu, let alone himself...
For the sake of my own life, I must stay away from this place, the Academy!
At this time, a Ph.D. from the School of Computing came over and said: "Anyone whose entrance examination score is higher than 60 points is considered qualified. Students who pass the score can leave."
For a moment, most of the people in the field began to disperse to the surroundings, but they did not go far, looking at this side from a distance.
Those who stay are naturally those who have not reached the qualifying line.
Twenty-one people were watched by more than a hundred people. No matter how thick-skinned they were, it was difficult to hide the shame in their hearts at this moment.
Among these people, not only their friends, but also the friends of their elders in the family, the current court officials, the six ministers, the prime minister, and the current emperor...
Li Yi walked over from a distance. These people all lowered their heads, their faces full of shame.
"I have some good news to tell you." He glanced at everyone and said, "Those who failed to pass the entrance examination were originally not eligible for admission, but His Majesty is merciful and decided to give you another chance." .”
"You can enroll first. Three months later, the college will conduct another assessment for you. If you still fail to pass by that time, you can pack up your things and leave."
After saying these words, after everyone was shocked for a while, they immediately became ecstatic in their hearts, and a feeling of regaining what was lost spontaneously arose.
I was already prepared to be reprimanded by the elders when I went back, but I didn't expect to get another chance in a turn of events. Three months, three months is enough. After three months, there must be no more embarrassing scenes like today.
Among the crowd, a young man named Wang Dan breathed a sigh of relief.
Although he didn't want to study arithmetic here at all, if he was kicked out on the first day - he couldn't afford to be ashamed of it.
"Knowing mistakes can be corrected. There is nothing good about it. I hope you can remember today's lesson, study hard in the future, and serve the country in the future. You must know that failure is not terrible..." Li Yi looked at them and said in a deep voice.
Shame appeared on the faces of all the students, but then moved.
It turned out that the dean didn't want to drive them away, but to take this opportunity to let them learn a lesson, let them understand that failure is not terrible, without failure, how can there be success
Emperor Jing nodded slightly, and the faces of several officials behind him also showed smiles.
This young Dean Li still has some skills in admonishing students.
"Failure is not terrible..." Li Yi said in a deep voice, and the next moment, his voice suddenly became severe, "The terrible thing is that you still believe this sentence!"
"I sent the textbook to you three months ago. Even if you spend half an hour every day, you can read all the contents of the book. It is impossible to get such a score today!"
"Faced with such scores, don't you feel ashamed!" Li Yi pointed at them and said loudly, "Today, all those who failed the exam will jump frog ten times around the playground!"
The twenty-one students stood there blankly, with indescribable expressions on their faces.
Emperor Jing, who was still nodding, felt a little stiff in his neck, and the smiles on the faces of the officials behind him froze at this moment.
