Respectfully ask Your Majesty to kill the immortal

Chapter 266 The Imperial Examination Begins

Xu Mochen also knew that investment in education was inevitable and intangible.

Unlike other inputs, it can have a roughly defined output.

This is the reason why there were not many scholars in the farming era.

In the end, Xu Mochen agreed with everyone and selected more than 9 children from poor families.

After the imperial examination, he will hold the Enke, and there will be children from the gentry joining in at that time.

Put together like this, the basic number of teachers is almost enough.

"Nowadays, domestic grain and other production is not absolutely sufficient, and labor and education are reversed in one go," Xu Mochen said of his plan, "the acceptance of the common people must be very small.

So I think that with the county seat as the main unit, down to the villages and towns, there are five or six teachers in one place, and the scale is enough. "

As for large counties and prefectures, more people are needed.

Shen Zhining also agreed: "The concubine checked the information of Blue Star Huaxia, and the literacy campaign back then also started from a local point of view.

It is not possible to force all ordinary people to participate, but to mobilize them in the name of the government. "

Xu Mochen had also been in touch with the history of that era, and indeed there was still resistance.

In some villages and towns, they do farm work during the day and study with kerosene lamps at night.

Because there is no basis for enlightenment, some older children are actually unacceptable.

"Dagan is currently not thriving in other industries," Zhao Lingbo also suggested, "I believe that Your Majesty should gradually encourage the people to engage in other industries."

A few years ago, no one dared to think about this. At that time, the country had just been unified, and except for farming and a small amount of handicrafts and commerce, it was basically in depression.

But now, Xu Mochen is qualified to develop diversified industries.

Especially with electricity resources, the rising flexibility is great.

However, these cannot be accomplished overnight. Xu Mochen explained that Qizhou, Ningzhou, southern Danzhou, and Lanzhou that are in his hands will start first.

If some people become rich, then they will drive everyone to become rich.

In late April, the imperial court announced the results of the national teacher recruitment examination.

The number of admissions close to [-] still caused an uproar.

The first is the courtiers. For them, it is not difficult to find out the test results.

But when they saw the examination papers of the people selected by Xu Mochen, they all laughed.

That's it?This is the teacher His Majesty wants to use again?

Can you tell the truth, that is, it is all waste materials.

Let them engage in education and teach others, which will definitely mislead their children.

Very resistant to death, worthy of being His Majesty, he is truly a famous emperor through the ages!

Let us shoulder the future of Daqian.

The second is the children of the gentry. After some of the examination papers were anonymously transcribed, they were also circulated in their hands.

This is also called selecting talents?What an insult to Wendao.

Hunjun, oh Hunjun, if I didn't have loyal ministers to assist me, I would be hopeless!

Then there are the selected children from poor families, who are overjoyed but also apprehensive.

I still know what level I am, but I didn't expect His Majesty to admit me with such a bad test result.

I'm afraid this big job is really going to subjugate the country!

Xu Mochen didn't care about this for the time being, because in May, the capital finally ushered in the imperial examination.

The scale of this imperial examination is also unprecedented. According to the statistics of the Ministry of Rites, there are about [-] people.

Xu Mochen knew the history of Blue Star, and this figure was about the same as the current era.

It's just that among the 3 people, 90.00% are cultivators, and the rest are scholars from the gentry.

During this period of time, the Ministry of Rites worked overtime and set up a lot of test locations.

It doesn't matter for mortal students, but for immortal cultivators, special arrangements are required.

Everyone has magical powers, who knows if they will get mad when they can't do it.

There is also the use of magical powers to cheat, plagiarism, etc., which must also be considered.

Xu Mochen visited one of the examination rooms, and a shielding formation was set up around the examination room.

In this formation, the use of spiritual consciousness and aura is restricted, and after entering, immortal cultivators are basically the same as ordinary people.

Of course, if they really riot collectively, they will be able to break through the formation.

Therefore, in each examination room, some of the people responsible for maintaining order are immortal cultivators sent by the Momeng.

Once an abnormality is found, immediately intervene to deal with it.

In addition, the Ministry of Rites also notified the Ministry of War to mobilize the soldiers and horses of the five cities and impose martial law on the capital.

The exam time is nine days and nine nights in total, and all students have to stay in the designated room to solve the problem of eating, drinking and lazing.

For cultivators, this is not a problem at all, so in fact, the main energy of the Ministry of Rites is still on the students of the gentry.

Although everyone knows now that gentry students have been extracted from the culture, participating in the imperial examination is just soy sauce.

After the exam, review all the test papers within three days and select a part of them.

In the past, there were not many admissions, but this time, according to the demand for officials calculated by the Ministry of Officials, the total number of admissions is planned to be more than 3000.

These are still officials in the establishment, plus the additional admissions from non-establishment, the number of people reported by the Ministry of Rites is about 1.

With so many people, not all of them stayed in the capital to supplement the lack of officials in the court.

Most of them have experienced in various departments, and they will be transferred to the major prefectures and counties to join the newly added government departments.

Therefore, in fact, the top admissions are about three to 400 people.

According to the procedure given by the Ministry of Etiquette, these three or 400 people are going to take part in the palace examination, to be selected as the No. [-] scholar, and so on.

This is the main flow in the past.

Only this year, an additional item has been added.

That is, after the results of the palace examination, all the thousands of top students in the recruited establishment will all go to visit the Imperial College to show that the country attaches great importance to cultural governance.

Xu Mochen didn't object to this. Anyway, it is estimated that the students in this establishment should all be cultivators.

Even if some gentry students occasionally mixed in, Xu Mochen reckoned that the Ministry of Rites would have the means to deal with it.

Simply put, the last carnival belongs to the cultivators.

This result, Xu Mochen acquiesced, was used in exchange for the promotion of modern education he wanted.

Between him and the cultivator, the idea of ​​the prosperity of literature and Taoism has since parted ways.

It is lively and lively into May, and the day of the imperial examination will soon be ushered in.

On this day, Xu Mochen held the long-lost court meeting very early.

It's just that this court meeting did not discuss any major military affairs.

Xu Mochen sat on the throne, and with a wave of his hand, Tang Derun brought over a brocade box.

This brocade box was imprinted with Xu Mochen's own divine sense, and it was shielded by a formation.

Immortal cultivators cannot easily spy on the content.

At this time, the students should all enter the examination room, which is in a closed state.

And it was time for Xu Mochen to personally open the brocade box and take out the exam questions.

He raised his jaw slightly, and Tang Derun opened the box in front of all the ministers, and took out a scroll, which contained the questions of the imperial examination.

Seeing this, the servant took a deep breath and shouted, "Dagan's first national imperial examination begins!"
