Chapter 187 Letter
Early the next morning, a list article was posted outside the Imperial College Mountain Gate, showing the names and scores of the top 50 of this exam. The highest score for this admission was 92 and the lowest score was 78.
.
The candidates who came to take the exam yesterday have been watching the list one after another. Some are very happy, while others are dejected.
After these candidates returned, both their families and colleagues in the yamen were very curious. An official from the Imperial Heaven Supervision learned that his colleagues only scored more than 70 points in the exam, and he mocked him so much.
The prison guard couldn't stand the anger, so he directly found Chu Ci and asked to buy a sample book to do it for his colleague.
Chu Ci printed more at the beginning just to make someone want to collect one, so he sold it to this person at a price twice as high as he bought it.
After this man took the test paper back to the Imperial Heaven Prison, everyone gathered to look at the questions. After finishing the several questions that he made ridiculous, he apologized directly to the prison Prison.
This happened in other yamen. The originally arrogant people were directly slapped in the face by the difficulty of the test paper. The ratio of difficulty of Chu Ci is 6 to 4. Most people can get about 60, but it is a bit difficult to go up.
.
As many people came to the door, Chu Ci put the remaining dozens of test papers in the teahouse and took the two cents of silver he wanted.
The interview time was on June 14th. Chu Ci asked several questions, and everyone had the same questions. These interviewers entered with pride and then came out with a confused look on their faces.
"What do you explain to the word Master?"
"What do you think you should meet to become a good teacher?"
"How do you discipline your students when they are not very obedient?"
They thought Chu Ci would ask them to write poems and write articles on the spot, but who knew only these three questions. And when the last question was, he would give various examples, and then stop asking others.
When is it so difficult to be a master? Isn’t it just to teach them to study, write, and sit and drink tea at other times.
Chu Ci and the two doctoral students spent a day interviewing the fifty candidates. During the interview, in addition to three questions, Chu Ci also added some psychological questions, from their answers.
You can probably know some of their personality traits.
After discussing with the two doctors, Chu Ci removed all the extreme, irritable and cold temperaments, and those who were left were basically those with gentle temperaments but were proficient in their behaviors and would not be led by students. Although they were still
Some shortcomings, but it should be good at all.
The fifteen people who were left were very happy. Some of them taught in academies outside, and some did something that was optional in other yamen. Among them, the highest-ranking one was only the eighth grade.
Actually, this is pretty good. After all, the top scholar in the palace examination was only sixth rank at the beginning. After arriving at the Imperial College, they would start with learning the official position. Although they were only eighth rank, their treatment was better than they had before.
The place is so much better.
"Chu first welcomes you to join on behalf of the Imperial College. Please bring your resume or juren's document to the Ministry of Personnel tomorrow morning. At that time, the Imperial College will send someone to cooperate in the processing. Also, tomorrow afternoon is not yet available,
Please come to the Imperial College.”
"Yes." These newly appointed teachers were very obedient.
After Chu Ci sent them away, he found that the Imperial College was much quieter than usual.
"I forgot about it, I can't even remember it if it's a holiday tomorrow." Chu Ci smiled and shook his head.
"Adults are really a model for us."
Chu Ci raised his eyebrows and looked at He Ping, as if he was asking when did you learn to flatter?
He Ping smiled and said, "I will follow you every day, so I have to learn something no matter how you do it."
Chu Ci smiled originally, but then his face froze. I'll go, is this kid talking about flattery from him?
...
"The emperor is wise, thanks to the emperor's support and the strong help of all the great masters, I am able to recruit fifteen talents. With their joining, I believe that the Imperial College will definitely become better than before."
On the fifteenth day, the dynasty was in the grand hall, and Chu Ci stood in the hall to report the situation to the emperor.
"The recruitment exam of Chu Siye is really popular. Now the streets and alleys are discussing this matter. I also heard that Chu Siye has produced a percentage test paper, and can use specific numbers to evaluate people's studies. I don't know
Is it true?” The question was Lord Zhang, the Grand Secretary of the Baohe Palace.
"It's true, mainly because everyone has their own preferences for articles and poems. If you choose them according to my own preferences, it would be a bit unfair. It would be better to put out some fixed topics to show fairness." Chu Ci replied seriously.
"So that's the case, this method is very wonderful." The old man stroked his beard and nodded.
"Thank you for your praise. I will give you an exam paper later so that you can check it carefully. By the way, the students from our Imperial College have come to watch the competition in this grand competition. After the game, I have written a lot of articles.
. The Wei-Min picked a few good ones and put them in a book. Now the book has been brought back, so I will present one to His Majesty.”
"Oh? Come on, I will read a few times when I am free." The emperor said. I wonder if it was because Chu Ci had talked too much about the students of the Imperial College, and the emperor also took them seriously.
Chu Ci presented the book and then retreated to the outside of the hall. Many officials outside the hall looked envious and jealous and hatred at Chu Ci. They were also sixth-rank officials, so why is the difference between being officials so big?
After going down the court, Chu Ci hurried out of the palace gate and instructed Zhang Hu to bring the books he had prepared before. Then, he stuffed a copy into the other party when he saw someone coming out.
"Sir Zhao stay! Xiaguan Chuci has met the adults. Here is a collection of articles for the adults, I hope he will not dislike him."
"I have accepted it. Thank you, Chu Siye for giving Zhao a special book."
"Sir, the reason why the junior officials stopped you is not entirely for the gift of books. I would like to talk to you about the matter of borrowing officers from the Ministry of War to the Imperial College. I wonder if you have time?" Chu Ci asked.
"Ministry of War borrowers?" Lord Zhao repeated, and accidentally remembered that it was mentioned by Chu Ci in front of the emperor during the last time he was in the court.
"I still have important things to do. If Chu Shiye is convenient, it is better to come to the Ministry of War early tomorrow morning and then discuss it slowly later."
"Thank you, sir, just..."
"Just what?" Lord Zhao usually deals with military generals and is quite straightforward. Seeing Chu Ci talking hesitantly, he couldn't help but frown.
"It's just that the Ministry of War is difficult to enter. When the Xiaguan went there last time, he never stepped in. It can be seen that the ruler is good, and even the gatekeeper is different from others. Therefore, Chu Ci dared to ask the adults to give him a chance.
A token so that the subordinates can enter the Ministry of War to discuss with the adults.”
When the Minister of War heard this, his face turned dark. He smiled and said to Chu Ci: "Chu Siye does not have to worry. Come here again tomorrow. I promise that no one will stop you." After that, he said that
Swing your sleeves and leave.
Chu Ci ignored his emotions, anyway, his goal had been achieved. He stood outside the gate and continued to send books to the officials who gave them.
...
"Chu Siye, you are back."
When Chu Ci returned to Wenxingfang at noon, he found someone standing in front of his door. After looking closely, he realized that he was the head of the Xijiang Guild Hall.
"I wonder what you are doing with Chu?"
"I sent a few letters from your family this morning. The villain was afraid of delaying Chu Siye's affairs, so he waited here early in the morning."
"I'm working hard!" Chu Ci couldn't hide his joy. After seeing off the chief, he couldn't wait to return to the room with a letter.
Chapter completed!
