The college entrance examination can be said to be the first watershed in life. Those who fail the list are either to choose a college or enter the society or join the army.
Even if you enter society, you need to take a skill test. People can only go further in the continuous self-improvement. The imperial examination and selection system adopted by the Tang Dynasty was one of the ways to enter official careers. Another way was to obtain letters of recommendation from princes and nobles. Protégé.
In the official words of recommendation credit, it is "to vote", that is, to write one's own masterpieces to the ministers of the DPRK in order to gain the appreciation of the nobles and the nobles to get the recommendation letter. If you vote for the six books of Shangshu, it is called a public scroll, and if you vote for a high-ranking official, it is also called an official scroll.
The basis of voting is one's own talents and learning, and luck is also important, especially if you want to get a letter of recommendation from important ministers in the DPRK, this requires opportunity, not everyone has such an opportunity. As the emperor, Li Shimin couldn't personally inspect it just because he had a letter of recommendation. Basically, he arranged to be a leisure official in a local government, or entered a palace as an assistant, and then he had the opportunity to be awarded an official position with outstanding performance.
As the chief examiner of this provincial examination, Li Kuan can be said to be extremely powerful, which makes Li Kuan have to be cautious. On the fourth day of the first lunar month, hundreds of civil and military officials went to court one after another, and Li Kuan was among the early court officials. Li Shimin announced in front of everyone that Li Kuan would serve as the chief examiner of the provincial examination.
There was an uproar among the officials in the Tai Chi Palace. No one thought that Li Kuan would be the chief examiner, and officials from the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Rites were appointed as examiners. Everyone fully cooperated with Li Kuan's work. Naturally, Li Shimin was very concerned about the three-year provincial test, and he also urged Li Kuan to do everything he could to do it well.
Li Kuan had no choice but to bite the bullet and agreed. As an examinee, Li Kuan did have experience. As the chief examiner Li Kuan really had no experience. He didn't know what the provincial examination was. He didn't know what the question was.
"Uncle Wang, how do you come up with this subject?" Li Kuan first thought of Li Daozong. He asked for his help. Li Daozong also asked but didn't know: "How do I know this? Know how to write a question."
"Zhao Guogong, Master Shangshu, go slowly!" Li Kuan had to bite the bullet and go to Changsun Wuji. He didn't know whether it was because he thought too much or the fact. Li Kuan always felt that Changsun Wuji was hostile to him, and on the surface he was very hostile to him. Respect, this is actually an illusion.
It was this feeling that made Li Kuan deliberately avoid Changsun Wuji, but Li Daozong didn't know it, and he couldn't ask Li Ji, the Shangshu of the Ministry of War, because it was even more wrong. Changsun Wuji was about to go to the staff department, when he heard someone calling him, he turned around in surprise: "His Royal Highness, are you calling me?"
"Yes!" Li Kuan nodded, and said embarrassingly, "Is Zhao Guogong free?"
"His Royal Highness, if you have something, you might as well speak up!" Changsun Wuji still smiled and Li Kuan didn't go around in circles. He quickly expressed his worries, crying for help, "I would like to ask Guogong Zhao for advice or two. Isn't it entrusted by the emperor?"
The grandson Wuji smiled apologetically: "I can't help but forgive me for this matter. The provincial examination is an important way for me to select talents in Datang. The problems related to the provincial examination are known to everyone except the emperor and his highness, or they will be leaked. Going out will cause an uproar."
Li Kuan saw that Changsun Wuji was unwilling to help. This was expected, so he had to bow and thank him and left, but he heard Changsun Wuji say: "His Royal Highness may as well ask the Minister Sun Fujia, Sun Shilang. He is the top champion in the Jinshi and No. 1 scholars, and should be able to give suggestions!"ァ新ヤ~⑧~1~中文网ωωω.χ~⒏~1zщ.còм
"Thank you!" Li Kuan thanked him again, and quickly went to the Ministry of Households to find Sun Fujia. At this time, Sun Fujia was serving as the minister of the Ministry of Households. This matter has something to do with Li Kuan. However, Li Kuan had to go to the Ministry of Households in person instead of considering this matter.
Du Ruhui, the Shangshu of the Ministry of Households, learned that Li Kuan had suddenly come, and named him by name to look for Sun Fujia, and asked in amazement: "His Royal Highness is looking for Shilang Sun?"
"Of course something is going on!" Li Kuan said solemnly, "It's about confidentiality, please forgive me!"
When Du Ruhui saw this, he couldn’t ask any more, so he had to find Sun Fujia. When Sun Fujia heard that Li Kuan was looking for him, he was shocked that he and Li Kuan were not enemies, but Sun Fujia did not want to see Li Kuan. , If it weren't for him, why would he be transferred to the household department
"His Royal Highness!" Since he couldn't avoid it, Sun Fujia had to bow and salute. Li Kuan said straightforwardly: "Do you know the contents of the provincial examination?" New Bayi Chinese website first published www.(x81zw).comm./x81zw/. com
Only after hearing this did Sun Fujia know why Li Kuan was looking for him. He indeed passed the provincial examination and passed the re-examination of the officials before he was awarded the official position. Since Li Kuan asked, Sun Fujia knew that it was impossible to conceal it deliberately, so he listened to Li Kuan what he knew.
At the beginning, Sun Fujia chose Jinshi, and he didn't know the other subjects, but Li Kuan still knew from his words what the provincial examination was about. There were many types of imperial examination subjects in the Tang Dynasty, and the examinations were different every year.
The permanent subjects include six subjects, namely Xiucai, Jinshi, Mingjing, Mingfa, Mingzi, and Mingma. Because the Xiucai subject is extremely difficult and the number of admissions is only one or two, whether it is the provincial examination, the number of people in the Xiucai subject is thousands or Hundreds, in short, the number of admissions is fixed.
Anyone who enters an official position through the scholarship subject is the best talent, and the official posts awarded are higher than those of other subjects. However, it is too difficult to enter an official post with the scholarship subject, which also makes the annual provincial examination extremely small. After that, this subject is abolished. There are only five permanent subjects, and other small subjects are set according to the situation.
The Tang dynasty official subjects were mainly Jinshi and Mingjing. Although there are other subjects, the number of admissions is also small. The main reason is that the remaining three subjects are professional talents, unlike Jinshi and Mingjing. There is room for play.
The five permanent exam subjects are almost the same, and the other subjects vary from person to person. Basically, provincial exams are held once every three years, and subjects are set according to the exam subjects registered by candidates from all over the world. Provincial exams are not all passed at one time. You only need to register for one of the subjects and you can participate in the official re-examination. As for the palace exams mentioned in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, they did not exist during the Zhenguan period. Official positions are awarded based on the results of each subject.
After understanding the general content, Li Kuan left the household department and went straight to the official department. Because the provincial examination is in charge of officials from the Ministry of Public Affairs, the Ministry of Etiquette is only in charge of venues. The list of applicants for each provincial examination is uniformly recorded by the staff, and Li Kuan, as the chief examiner, has the right to know the subjects that candidates are applying for.
