On the sixth day of the sixth month, the first Yongli Dynasty imperial examination was held on the east side of the Confucius Temple Academy. The examination was attended by 1,231 candidates from the Yongli Dynasty ruling area in Jiangnan.

The Great Ceremony of Talents was highly valued by emperors of all dynasties.

Since the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Youlang once said: "Chinese and foreign civil servants are promoted through the imperial examinations, and those who are not allowed to attend officials."

Therefore, although the imperial examination system declined during the Yuan Dynasty, it reached its peak in the Ming Dynasty.

Because Zhu Youlang has always lacked talents, his attention to the imperial examination is even more important than that of the emperors in the past.

The chief and vice presidents were awarded the title of Wu Bing, Wang Fuzhi, and the examiners of the 18th Room were all erudites.

Zhu Youlang did not make any changes to the examination contents of the four books, five-character and eight-rhyme poems, five-scripture and questioning.

According to his wishes, the imperial examinations must be added to the natural subjects in the future, and the Five Classics can be completely removed.

However, the natural subject is only the students of the Imperial College have been involved in it, and other students do not know what this is. Therefore, to be fair, this imperial examination cannot be added to this aspect. Of course, in the future, the natural subject must be added to the imperial examination system.

The first eight-legged essay was a test question given by Zhu Youlang himself.

He did not enjoy making a bad habit of making a subpoena and difficult questions, but instead proposed a very simple question: "Don't violate the farming season."

This article comes from "Mencius. King Hui of Liang": "If you do not violate the farming season, the grain cannot be eaten; if you do not enter the steak pond, the fish and turtles cannot be eaten; if you enter the mountains and forests at the time, the timber and wood cannot be used. If you cannot eat grain and fish and turtles cannot be eaten, the timber and wood cannot be used, which will make people healthy and die without regrets. If you do not regrets in health, the beginning of the king's way."

At the beginning of this chapter, King Hui of Liang said to Mencius: "I am willing to do my best to the country. If Henoi is in bad condition, then move the people to Hedong and move the grain to Henoi; the same is true for Hedong. If you observe the policies of neighboring countries, there is no such thing as my intention. If you do not add more people to the neighboring countries, why don't you add more people to the people?"

After Mencius answered why, the two sections of "not violating the farming season" were "to offer their own advice."

Zhu Youlang gave this question naturally in response to the current situation of the Yongli Dynasty. Let’s see how students have good strategies and insights based on the "stand up for the sages".

In fact, this question is extremely difficult. As long as you are not a ignorant person, you can get the answer after a little bit of Zhu Youlang's ruling veins.

The differences are different, words, words, and whether the writing is smooth or not will vary from person to person. Those with profound knowledge can work harder and stand out more.

This is the relatively simple purpose of the question he has put forward.

At the same time, Zhu Youlang had read many novels about the imperial examinations in his previous life and was very clear about the means of cheating on the imperial examinations.

Students have three exams in total, one every three days.

Before entering the examination room, there will be a Jinyiwei searching. After entering the examination room, each person will have a single room, where the exam, food, accommodation and sleep are all inside, and they can only come out after each exam.

After submitting the paper, the papers are sealed, copied, proofreaded, and finally the examiner determines the ranking and then the list is listed.

Each link is designed very closely and seems not easy to cheat. In fact, as long as you join forces with the examiner during the sealing and transcription stages, it is very easy to cheat.

For example, if the examiner wants to admit Zhang San, he can understand as long as he makes a special mark on Zhang San's paper during the seal and when transcribing.

Or in order to avoid the possibility of leaking secrets by those who know, you just need to make a good decision with the candidate and add a special code to the article, and the examiner will understand.

In short, the seemingly very strict examination system has many loopholes.

Therefore, Zhu Youlang issued a strict order, and anyone who dared to cheat during the imperial examination, the candidate was jailed and the examiner was killed.

The imperial examination was a long process, and the results would not be produced in the early July. Therefore, Zhu Youlang handed over the matter to Wu Bing and Wang Fuzhi did it. He didn't ask any more, but focused on the war in Henan, and waited for the results of the examination.

...

Fu Shan soon spread the incident in Beijing.

Zhu Youlang read the information reported by Chen Jitai and felt a smirk in his heart.

Dong Xiaowan's affairs were his work.

Let Fu Shan find Dong Xiaowan, and quietly worship E Shuo as his adoptive father, and "meet" Fu Lin through E Shuo. He believed that the two would definitely hit it off at first sight, and that before Bao Ping became Fu Lin's queen, Bulftai would definitely not let Dong Xiaowan be favored in front of him, so it is certain that there was a gap between them, mother and son.

Now, the effect is good.

Hathis's affairs were also his idea.

His purpose was to allow Hatis to use the financial resources of the Qing Dynasty to build a firearm battalion, collect craftsmen, and build a frame. As long as the core technology is stuck, the Qing Dynasty could not create powerful grenades, mines and steel guns.

When they built the firearms and marched to the Northern Expedition themselves, wouldn’t Fulin’s son be married for me?

If all these were expected by him, Fulin would urge Duoduo to come out of the mountain, which really made him unexpected.

Duoduo has become a phoenix that has fallen into the arsenal. Zhu Youlang believes that Bulftai cannot let him regain military power; and he must hate Bulftai very much. Even if Fulin abandons his past grudges and invites him personally, a person who is so proud will definitely not come out of the mountain.

Unexpectedly, when the national crisis was in the face of the country, Fulin really went to invite him, and Duoduo really agreed.

"It seems that at the critical moment, both Duoduo and Fulin realized that they could not be fussed internally." Zhu Youlang thought to himself.

Zhu Youlang passed on oral instructions and brought Chen Zizhuang and Hong Chengchou to the Qianqing Palace.

"Jisheng, what's the situation there?" Zhu Youlang asked.

"When you go back to your Majesty, Mr. Li just sent a report to Tang. The left army took Ma Boye as the vanguard and had already captured Nanyang and was advancing northward. However, in recent days, it has been raining and the road is muddy and difficult to walk. The army marched for only thirty miles a day and could not increase its speed." Chen Zizhuang replied.

"Have Duoduo arrived in Kaifeng?"

"When you go back to your Majesty, Duoduo led a large army of 30,000 Qing troops to Puyang, and there is no sign of advancing towards Kaifeng."

"Station in Puyang?" Zhu Youlang frowned: "Could he have any conspiracy? In fact, he should have driven the troops to advance quickly and garrison in Kaifeng. Hengjiu, what do you think?"

"When you go back to Your Majesty, it is still difficult to see what conspiracy he has. Maybe he wants to give up Kaifeng, maybe it is because of insufficient food and grass, or maybe it is because of building a defense line on the north bank of the Yellow River, it is still difficult to judge." Hong Chengchou replied.

Zhu Youlang was very grateful to Hong Chengchou's military talents. He didn't see anything, probably nothing was there.

"Okay, pay close attention to Duoduo's movements. In addition, quickly pass the news of Duoduo's out-of-mountain to Ning Yu, and ask him to be more careful. Duoduo is not an ordinary person." Zhu Youlang said.

"Yes, I follow the order."
