Traveled through Daming, but was punished by the old Zhu Shizu

Although Liu Xiu escaped from His Majesty's butcher's knife once, it was also a coincidence that he discovered Daming's financial problems. Such an opportunity is once in a thousand years.

If Daming really had so many big issues that could shake the foundation of the country waiting for Liu Xiu to speak out, then the Ming Dynasty really sucks!

In short, if Liu Xiu writes this countermeasure, it will not only affect himself, but also affect the examiners and examiners.

"Your Highness, I'm afraid this will harm you!"

Song Zan's voice trembled. He changed from his usual aloof manner. He is also a human being. This time he was really scared!

The fourth child closed his eyes, his eyelids were jumping wildly uncontrollably. After a long time, he said in a hoarse voice,

"Let him finish."

At this time, Liu Xiu in the examination room seemed extremely relaxed.

The question of the northern and southern imperial examinations is indeed unsolvable, but this unsolvability is unsolvable in ancient times.

But in modern times there is a solution.

The modern territory is larger, and the situation of the provinces and ethnic groups is more complicated, which is much more complicated than the dispute between the north and the south in the Ming Dynasty. Why is there no such contradiction in modern times?

The answer lies in the college entrance examination!

That is the bonus point system!

In fact, the demands of all parties are very clear,

Candidates from the north did not want to pass the imperial examinations. Some people gave them a little trouble. The overall quality of the candidates in the north was indeed inferior to that of the candidates from the south. The northern candidates had never denied this.

But the problem is that there are constant wars in the north, and there has never been a stable study environment, and the candidates in the north are young people,

After a big battle was fought, these candidates from the north were the main force for enlisting in the army during the war and farming in their spare time.

With so many things distracted, can candidates in the north learn to study?

Therefore, this is a problem of objective factors, not that the northern candidates are born with stupid brains.

What makes the northern candidates angry is that the southern candidates don't consider the war in the north at all, and think that the southern candidates are superior to the northern candidates. The southern candidates are smarter than the northern candidates, and the northern candidates are stupid and want to make trouble.

Therefore, the northern candidates are very upset,

Why should we protect our home and defend our country, even if we don’t have preferential treatment, and we still have to be ridiculed by candidates from the south?

What are the demands of the candidates in the south? That is to ensure the fairness of the imperial examinations.

In their view, the imperial court is deliberately favoring candidates from the north. Since it is an exam, then don't talk about it being useless. Everything will be shown in the test paper!

Besides, candidates from the south have enough self-confidence. As long as the imperial examinations are fair, all those who win the exams must be candidates from the south.

Indeed, as they thought, the overall situation in the past few years is that there are far more candidates from the south than those from the north.

While the northern candidates are not convinced, in the eyes of the southern candidates, they are not as skilled as others.

If the northern candidates made such a fuss and the court turned to them, would the imperial examination still be fair? !

And Lao Zhu's idea is even simpler. In Lao Zhu's opinion, the fairness of the imperial examination is secondary.

What Lao Zhu cares about is balance, not fairness.

The people who read the imperial examinations are all official reserves, that is to say, the final result of the imperial examinations is to be an official, and there are too many candidates in the south. After these southern candidates enter the officialdom and become officials, they will be officials of the southern faction.

After the northern candidates enter the officialdom, they are officials of the northern faction,

Don’t think that those officials in the officialdom are monolithic. Now the Hongwu Dynasty’s officialdom is established by sects, and the basic logic of distribution is nothing more than two points.

One is family status, and the other is region.

What is family status? If a second-rank minister has been the chief examiner of the imperial examination, if two people enter the imperial examination in this provincial examination, then these two people are the chief examiner's students.

If you become an official in the future, you will come to thank the chief examiner. Naturally, these newly promoted officials belong to the second-rank minister.

Add to that,

The children of other officials in the same dynasty should be taken care of,

Take care of your offspring.

If you owe someone a favor, you have to take care of their children, right?

After all the calculations, these officials come and go, forming a bureaucratic faction.

It is even easier to divide factions by region. Wherever you are from, that faction is yours.

If the imperial examinations are allowed to develop like this, within three imperial examinations, the court will be full of southerners,

This is something Lao Zhu absolutely cannot bear as an emperor!

That's why Lao Zhu, in the case of the North and South List, risked the world's dissatisfaction, re-drawn the list, and took all the northerners.

In general,

Candidates from the north have to let out a sigh of relief.

Candidates in the south want fairness,

Lao Zhu wants balance,

Now that the needs of the three parties are clear, it will be easy to handle.

Add points!

If there are family members who died against the Yuan Dynasty in the family, or if you have participated in the war within five years, you can raise the overall score to a higher level.

Middle B can be referred to as Upper B, and Upper Second can be referred to as Lower A,

If candidates from the south are not convinced, it’s very simple. This bonus policy does not stipulate the northern and southern regions. If you want to add points, then you go to war.

In addition, points are also added for remote places, such as Yandi, Yunnan, and Northeast China.

There is a problem of educational resources. The more remote the place, the more backward the educational resources are. Not to mention compared with the schools in the south, let alone the huge Yandi, there is only one serious school, the White Horse Academy.

It can be seen how disparate the educational resources have become.

Of course, if candidates in the south also want to add points, they only need to live in the above-mentioned remote areas for two years, and there are no restrictions on the imperial examination here.

……

Liu Xiu's writing is like a spring, it's really that the modern examination system is too perfect, Liu Xiu only needs to make a little change according to the situation of Ming Dynasty, and it can be used!

And what Liu Xiu didn't expect at the moment, what kind of impact this policy theory would bring to the entire Ming Dynasty,

The First Policy Theory of Ming Dynasty is being created!

Snapped!

Liu Xiu put down her pen and shook out the test paper. All the test questions of the township test had been answered.

When writing the fourth question, there was no pause in the whole process, and the whole text flowed smoothly. However, Liu Xiuzai didn't take a look, but just lay down and fell asleep.

After sleeping for about three or four hours, Liu Xiu opened his eyes and read the test paper from beginning to end again. After correcting a few typos, the test paper was completely completed!

When Liu Xiugang put down the test paper, King Yan's voice sounded,

"Exam, end!"

Chapter 153

"The exam is over."

"Put the test paper on the table and you can exit."

Liu Xiu heard the words and put down the paper and got up, only to see an afterimage running towards her at a very fast speed.

Liu Xiu was taken aback, Song Zan grabbed his paper and said with a sneer,

"I'll collect the scroll."

Liu Xiu cupped her hands and said nothing.

"Liu Xiu, how's your answer? I see that great Confucian Song Zan running towards you a lot!"

Dong Naihe got up and hurried over,

"Song Zan?" Liu Xiu frowned slightly,

"It's the person who took your papers! You don't even know him?"

"You think everyone is like you, so gossip!"

"Tch, this has nothing to do with my gossip. Come on, Tonghe, tell me, do you know Song Zan?"

Yu Tonghe came over and nodded, "Master Liu, that's the eldest son of the great Confucian Song Lian. I heard that he won't even sell His Majesty's face. He refused to enter the Imperial Academy even if he begged him. He set up a private school in Wu."

"Heh!" Liu Xiu smiled, "It seems that I am really ignorant?"

Yu Tonghe scratched his head, "Master Liu, Song Zan is the host of the Great Bright Moon's Review, and all the young people who can get his comments will be able to achieve great success!"

Dong Naihe felt itchy when he heard it, "Let's try it?"

Liu Xiu expressed that she wasn't interested, but she didn't know that she already had Song Zan's comment, so she looked at Yu Tonghe and said, "How is your answer?"

Yu Tonghe sighed, "It shouldn't be a problem to be on the list, but it's hard to get a high score. Posting scriptures and poems is okay, but policy theory is my big weakness."

"Okay! It's good to be on the list. I slept for almost a day and a night. I thought the questions in the north could be easier and I could catch some mistakes. This guy is much more difficult than the questions in the south!" Dong Nai He said in a panic.

"Forget it after the exam. You two are fine. I'll treat you two to a restaurant."

"Really?!" Dong Naihe's eyes lit up when he heard about the restaurant, "Can you go to Zuixian Tower? Find some beauties to play the piano or something?"

Liu Xiu smiled, "Okay, but I won't look for it."

"I know you have Miao Yun in your heart, but you have misunderstood the Zuixian Tower. They are all pure ladies. People play the piano, and you can't even touch their hands!"

"That's fine," Liu Xiu nodded. After all, he already has a family, so it's not good to mess around, "Tonghe, let's go?"

Yu Tonghe was flattered, "Master, why don't I invite you..."

"What do you invite? Mr. Liu has a lot of money. We are exhausted and we can't spend it all. Do you need it?"

"Naihe is right," Liu Xiu pulled the two of them together, "I will arrange this meal."

As soon as the three of them walked out of the White Horse Academy, a harsh shout came from behind,

"and many more!"

Liu Xiu and the others turned a deaf ear,
