Work overtime

Jiang Yuebai looked up at the emperor with bright eyes, "Because not only a good man in the world, but a good daughter also has a heart of serving the country and patriotism! There was Hua Mulan in ancient times, and Princess Pingyangzhao in Tang Dynasty. Daughters can also enter the court with literary skills. Hall, Wu can go to the battlefield and serve the country."

Li Beichen looked up at Jiang Yuebai with a complicated expression. She was not the first person to say this.

The first one is Princess Zhaoyun, his elder sister.His mother and concubine were born in a family of military generals in the Southwest.

The first emperor had a total of eight princesses, two of whom died when they were underage.Five were married to border guards, and one was under the age of 12 and lived in the princess mansion in the capital.

Princess Zhaoyun has been heroic and heroic since she was a child, and she is quite masculine.Likes to dance guns and sticks, is brave and good at fighting, and his soldiers are not inferior to men.She was highly valued by the first emperor, and arranged for many military generals to teach her when she was in Beijing. When conquering the Tatars, she also took the eldest princess twice to the expedition.

Princess Zhaoyun was betrothed by the first emperor to General Zhaoyi who guarded the southwest border.The husband and wife are harmonious, and they have a son and a daughter.For many years, there has been no war in the southwest and it has been stable.

The first emperor took her to fight against the Tartars and won a complete victory. Princess Zhaoyun said similar things at the celebration banquet when the teacher returned to the court.Heroes and sons and daughters can fight on the battlefield and make contributions.

The second is the queen.The queen was born in a family of generals.Father and brother are all members of the army, and they are all outstanding.The queen has been fascinated by her ears and eyes, she is naturally capable, and her character is also stubborn and flamboyant.

When the two of them had a quarrel in Qian Mansion, the Queen also angrily said something similar:
Her original intention was not in the deep palace. For her, the position of queen is not an honor but a bondage, and she only obeys the wishes of the first emperor and her father.

Her ambition is to fight on the battlefield, even if the shroud of horse leather is still there, that is her fate.

At the time, he was very angry about it.He thought the queen was ungrateful and ignorant of good and evil.

Regarding generals and generals' daughters, the emperor's mentality has always been complicated. He needs to rely on, win over, and is very afraid.So when they said that they wanted to lead a party, be a female general, and make contributions, the emperor would always doubt their motives.

But Jiang Yuebai was not from such a family, what she said touched Li Beichen greatly.

A good daughter also has the heart to serve the country.It's even more natural for Jiangmen Tiger Girl.

But Li Beichen restrained his expression, looked at Jiang Yuebai, and changed the subject: "You haven't answered my question yet, do you want to participate in the Wenju or Wuju?"

The attitude is very serious, Jiang Yuebai understands that this is the leader talking about official affairs, not a casual chat, so the attitude is also very serious: "The concubine doesn't know much about Wenju and martial arts. Can the emperor explain one or two for the concubine? ?”

Li Beichen squinted his eyes and looked at Jiang Yuebai: "Martial arts is based on strategy first, followed by martial arts. Military strategy is tested first and then military technology. If you fail in military strategy, you will not be able to participate in the martial arts test.

There are three questions in the written test on military strategy, two questions on strategy, and another question on silent writing of "Martial Arts".The martial arts test tests riding and archery, infantry, spears, knives, swords, halberds, boxing, and stabbing.They are all combat skills that need to be used in actual combat. "

Jiang Yuebai touched her chin after listening, and sighed, "It sounds difficult."

It seems that she has been restrained, and she will not take the battlefield between life and death too hastily.

Li Beichen went on to say: "Wenju mainly examines the Four Books and the Five Classics, not poetry and prose. The examination is divided into three sessions. The first session examines the three principles of the "Four Books" and the four principles of the classics; There is one examination, five judgments, one imperial edict, imperial edict, external form, and internal medicine; the third examination of scriptures and history has five policies."

It sounds like it is very similar to modern civil service exams. The first test examines basic knowledge of political theory, the second test examines administrative management knowledge, and the third test examines theory.

Jiang Yuebai touched her chin after listening, and sighed, "It sounds difficult."

However, the college entrance examination and the civil service cadre selection examination are combined into one. Ten years of hard study and life-long benefit, so it is called "examination for merit and fame".

Unlike the modern college entrance examination, which can pass Qingbei, the civil service examination may not pass.After going to university, studying for a master's degree, or studying abroad, you may not be able to find a job and stay at home.

Generally speaking, the ancient imperial examinations are very cost-effective.

At the beginning of the ten-year cold window, I was admitted to the university at No. 59 in Zhongguancun, which can be said to be outstanding.

But in the face of the unified selection across the country, as a candidate in Jiangsu, she felt a little lack of confidence.

After all, there are candidates from Henan, Shandong, and Zhejiang in the front row.

And if you miss once, you can only wait another three years.So cruel.

Li Beichen couldn't help laughing at Jiang Yuebai's look of loss, and asked curiously, "How is it? I introduced Wenju and Wuju to you. Which subject are you going to take?"

"Your Majesty, may I ask how many people will be accepted for Wenju? How many people will be admitted for Wuju?" Jiang Yuebai looked worried.

李北辰憋住笑：“文举约300名，武举约150名。秀才中举的比例为30比1，中举率约为百分之三。举人中进士的比例为20比1，录取率约为5.00%。”

The imperial examination is held every three years, which is equivalent to only admitting 100 civil servants and 50 military personnel each year.

After my birthday this year, I will be seventeen.

The imperial examination is held every three years, and the age is 20 after three years.Three years of college entrance examination, five years of simulation.It seems to be a little late to prepare.However, it only takes two years to prepare for the postgraduate entrance examination, and even if you want to take the top [-] in the country, it is quite fierce to compete with the exam kings and exam kings.

If you can be admitted to a management position in the civil service at the age of 20, you are considered very young and promising.

However, the longevity of the ancients is a metaphysics.Every now and then, under natural disasters and man-made disasters, he hiccups suddenly.

Especially women.Marriage at a young age, without contraceptive measures, can only keep giving birth.Every time I give birth, I will go through the gate of hell, and my life is in danger.

Men have been fighting for labor all year round, and the death rate is high.It is more in line with social needs that women are responsible for giving birth to children and running the family.

Therefore, even if the restrictions on women in the imperial examinations are lifted, it is still difficult for women to break through the shackles and take the exams, and the final employment must be very rare, very few.

After the calculation, Jiang Yuebai felt a little heavy.

Sure enough, only by traveling to ancient times can one truly understand Fan Jinzhong's madness after judging.

Li Beichen's smile gradually dissipated: "Jiaojiao, did you retreat in spite of the difficulties?"

Jiang Yuebai shook her head and sighed: "It's really difficult to be among the top three hundred in the country. According to the data just given by the emperor, the proportion of Jinshi among talented scholars is [-] out of [-]. It's really the so-called one in a thousand."

Pick one in a thousand, it's hard to return.

But when she was admitted to the famous university in Beijing, she was ranked in the top [-] in the province of the college entrance examination, far more than one in a thousand.

Try hard, there should still be hope.

"How did you come up with the data of [-] per thousand?" Li Beichen asked.

Jiang Yuebai blurted out: "Thirty times twenty, that's one six hundredth, or one point sixty-seven per thousand."

Li Beichen was fascinated by Xueba's self-confidence: "Jiaojiao, you are good at mental arithmetic. I think that you don't have to go to the imperial examination to help the queen manage the internal affairs of the harem. Learning to manage accounts is very suitable for you."
