  Chapter 112 Volume B

  Feng Ziying still doesn't know all of this. All his thoughts are already filled with various test papers that Zhou Chaozong assigns to him every day.

  It is easy to get started with the classics and meanings, but it is not easy to reach a profound level, especially for Feng Ziying's family background who lacks cultural background, it takes more effort.

  Looking at the thick stacks of Cheng Mo, Wei Mo, Fang Manuscript, and Running Script in front of her, Feng Ziying knew that from the next step, Zhou Chaozong might have to start preparing for the Confucianism Examination for herself.

   It can be said that this kind of eight-part essay examination since the pre-Ming Dynasty is the most meaningless. At the beginning of the establishment of the Great Zhou Dynasty, whether to follow the pre-Ming imperial examination system for obtaining scholars also caused great controversy.

   There is no problem in obtaining scholars through the imperial examination, which is supported by scholars all over the world, but it is very controversial if it is not still in accordance with the stereotyped examination model.

  In the end, Da Zhou basically followed the pre-Ming model, but replaced the more complicated exams with three different ones. The first exam was the Four Books, the second was the Five Classics, and the third was the Policy Theory.

   Both the first and second rounds were written according to the stereotyped pattern, but the third round was not so restrictive, and it was more about examining the scholars’ understanding of the current situation and their analysis and judgment.

  During the period of Emperor Yuanxi, the imperial examinations were reformed. First, the first and second occasions of the Chunwei Grand Competition were combined into one. Although the test papers were still two, they were combined into one, and the importance and weight of policy discussions increased significantly.

  Especially with the increasingly fierce political disputes, policy theory has become an important indicator for the ministers of the DPRK and China and local officials to read the direction of the government, and it has also made more people pay attention to the policy theory examination.

In the twenty-ninth year of Yuanxi, Qiuwei also began to follow the reform, and formally formed a custom in the thirty-fifth year. the number of sessions.

  However, due to the more subjective nature of policy theory exams, it is easy to cause huge controversy. Some exam papers were dismissed and failed, but in the eyes of some examiners or ministers of the DPRK and China, they were excellent, which also caused a lot of trouble.

  So in the Qiuwei Competition, the combination of classics and meanings still occupies a relatively large proportion, but in the Chunwei Competition, the importance of policy theory has faintly shown signs of surpassing the classics and meanings.

   "Ziying, come quickly."

  Feng Ziying just arrived and stretched herself, when she heard shouts from outside the window.

  Walking to the window, I saw groups of students discussing something under the sun, and Zheng Chongjian was shouting something over there.

   "Brother Dazhang, what's the matter?"

  Feng Ziying is very interested in these three so-called Shanxi Three Masters, needless to say Chen Qiyu, the key is that one of these three masters is a famous figure, Sun Chuanting!

  When he heard Sun Chuanting's name, he couldn't believe it. This is one of the few well-known figures in his memory of the remaining Ming history, even more impressive than Zuo Liangyu.

   Now you are actually a classmate with yourself? ! In terms of age, he was only a month older than himself, and from the outside, he seemed to be much older than him.

  With Chen Qiyu and Zheng Chongjian who can stand shoulder to shoulder with Sun Chuanting, Feng Ziying naturally dare not underestimate them.

  Who knows if these two were well-known figures in the history of the Ming Dynasty?

"Come on, Brother Mengzhang and Brother Keyou want to discuss with you." Zheng Chongjian had already walked to the window, saw the scroll in Feng Ziying's hand, and couldn't help laughing: "Still studying the homework assigned by Zhou Jiaoyu? "

  Everyone knows that Feng Ziying's foundation in classics and righteousness is weak. Over the past month or so, Feng Ziying has gradually exposed her shortcomings in the study of classics and righteousness.

  Although Feng Ziying is also working hard to catch up, and there is also Zhou Chaozong's special counseling, but this cannot be made up overnight.

  Feng Ziying's special talent in political discussion has also made many people envy and hate him, so the shortcomings in the classics have made everyone more balanced and easier to accept him.

   "No way, all I dream about in my sleep are these test paper assignments assigned to me by Zhou Jiaoyu." Feng Ziying waved his hand, "What do Brother Mengzhang and Brother Keyou want me to do?"

  Fan Jingwen, named Mengzhang, from Hejian, He Fengsheng, named Keyou, from Jiangxia, one north and one south, is the leader of Jiashe.

  They are all seventeen or eighteen years old. They have gone through a round of rural examinations, and they are quite sure about the rural examinations in the next year.

   During this period, Feng Ziying gained a lot of limelight because of her trip to Shandong as a teaching assignment. Even after the entire narrative and interpretation manuscript was sent to the West Garden, even the seniors in the West Garden were shocked by it.

  Although this is the crystallization of the wisdom of the entire East Garden A and B Houses, Feng Ziying's role in it is irreplaceable, so Feng Ziying is also famous among them.

  A new student from Yishe, who was born as a child of Wu Xun, can become a famous figure in Qingtan Academy in just one month. Even if it is due to chance, it will definitely make many people uncomfortable.

   It’s easier to talk about Yishe’s side, after all, everyone studies and lives in the same classroom every day, but Jiashe’s side must have a special feeling.

"I'm not sure, but I'm afraid it's not a good thing." Zheng Chongjian also had a wry smile on his face. As Jiashe, he is also the best in the entire East Garden. Fan Jingwen and He Fengsheng can basically be the representatives. This is recognized by even the official Yingzhen. .

   "Oh? I didn't offend them." Feng Ziying also looked helpless.

  He has successfully established his own status on Yishe's side. Whether it is the three heroes of Shanxi, or the southern scholars in the same dormitory like Fu Zonglong and Fang Youdu, they have all recognized him.

   But Jiashe is not so easy.

First of all, there is a difference of four or five years in age, and they don't study in the same dormitory, so this kind of unfamiliarity is more likely to increase mutual hostility, especially when they see themselves being so popular and winning the attention of Xiyuan. The addition of blue eyes is even more unpleasant.

   "Let's go, since we are recruiting each other, we can't avoid it, we have to meet each other to find out." Zheng Chongjian's temperament is different from Chen Qiyu who shows his sharpness, he has a calm and measured personality, and he is very considerate about things.

  Shanxi Three Heroes, Feng Ziying is very interested in that Sun Chuanting, because the history books say that he is the only super character who has the hope of saving the Great Ming, but he has no impression of Chen Qiyu and Zheng Chongjian.

It's just that the current Sun Chuanting is still just a green young man. Although he has shown some talents, he is still far from being able to compare with Chen Qiyu and Zheng Chongjian, the two leaders of Yishe. Although he is one of the three heroes, But he has always denied that he can be compared with Chen Qiyu and Zheng Chongjian.

   "Just go." Feng Ziying tidied up her books and said calmly, "Brother Dazhang, do you want to go back to your hometown for the spring break?"

Feng Ziying entered the academy after her twelfth birthday. It has been more than a month since then, and he has not gone home. Every ten-day holiday is caught by Zhou Chaozong to practice hard, which makes him miserable , Seeing that the weather is getting colder and the snow is starting to fall, he also feels that he needs to go home and have a look.

However, scholars from other places like this don’t have such good conditions, especially scholars from the south. It takes a month or two to go back and forth, and it’s impossible to go back. Even the spring break can only be in the academy. On the contrary, the scholars in the north can still go back during the spring break.

Zhou Chengming system, but made a change, the spring holiday of the previous Ming Dynasty was from the first day to the fifth day, and then from the eleventh to the twenty-first day. During the reign of Emperor Yuanxi, the holiday was extended, that is, the days from the sixth day to the tenth day Combined, that is to say, the official vacation can be from the first day to the 21st day of the new year, a total of 21 days.

"If you don't go back, it's freezing cold. It will take you ten days to go back and forth, and you have to ask for leave." Zheng Chongjian shook his head, and said enviously: "It's hello, I just lifted my leg and went home. During the holidays, your classmates have to bother you."

"Of course there's no problem." Feng Ziying replied happily: "I don't have many friends at home. As long as my classmates respect me, I'm certainly welcome to visit my house. There are also places to go."

There are quite a few students from the Shuntian Mansion in the academy, but in terms of good family background, there are probably not many of them. Noble families like Feng Ziying are special cases in the academy. The students studied hard for a year, and finally got a chance to relax , naturally hope to have a good place to go.

   Feng Ziying's generosity is heartbreaking no matter what.

Zheng Chongjian is not like Chen Qiyu and Fu Zonglong who are both friendly and somewhat wary of Feng Ziying. He thinks Feng Ziying is a good character. I can't choose my background. As a classmate, Zheng Chongjian thinks it is very good to be able to do this.

  He and Sun Chuanting have also talked about this point, and their views are relatively consistent.

   Please support more!
