Chapter 230: An alternative civil service recruitment exam. A student who is obsessed with studying
After Xiao Ding finished handling the government affairs, he saw Ning Luo writing and drawing on another desk. When he took a closer look out of curiosity, Leng Jun couldn't help but say:
"Luo'er, these exam questions you asked are completely different from the imperial examination questions issued by the Ministry of Rites. I'm afraid it will confuse the scholars in Northern Xinjiang."
Ning Luo explained: "In the past, there were no standard answers to the imperial examination questions such as policy essays and poems. No matter how good the candidate's literary talent is, if the article he writes is not to the examiner's taste, he may fail."
"The test questions I asked all have standard answers. There is absolutely no point in judging the scores based on the examiner's personal preferences. It is even more fair and just."
"Moreover, the candidates this time are all students who failed the imperial examination, which means that they are not good at answering imperial examination questions. Some of them may have failed because they are not good at pasting scriptures or poetry, but they are upright and have talents that can be used by the court. "
"Such exam questions give these people an opportunity to use their talents in an eclectic way."
"This multiple-choice question accounts for 40% of the score. The multiple-choice question tests astronomy and right and wrong reasoning calculations. It can test whether a person is knowledgeable and alert."
"The remaining 60% are case-solving questions. These cases involve industry, commerce, and farmers, and daily life. If the candidates can solve the case based on the clues in the questions, they will definitely be qualified for government positions."
"An additional interview will be added at that time. A dozen examiners will each ask a question for the candidates to answer on the spot. This will test the candidates' appearance, manners, and eloquence."
After Xiao Ding heard this, he agreed very much: "Luo'er is knowledgeable and knowledgeable, and he really knows how to select practical talents. This time Beijiang Enke will take this kind of test. If the results are good, it can be promoted in all states in Yanguo in the future. It also allows more talents who are not suitable for the imperial examination to be selected."
"Your Majesty is so complimentary."
Ning Luo also wanted to test Xiao Ding's knowledge and asked him playfully.
"Can the prince do these exam questions?"
"Of course I will do it." Xiao Ding definitely can't say no, otherwise the regent would lose face.
"Then please give it a try, Your Majesty. Then I will know whether these questions are difficult for other students."
Ning Luo handed him the pen.
"Your Majesty, I'm going to refine the medicine and I'll be back later. If you've finished answering, just leave it here."
After saying that, the person flashed into the space and disappeared into the study.
Xiao Ding could only sit in front of the case and answer the questions seriously.
After doing a few things, not sure whether they were correct or not, Xiao Ding took out the bell from his sleeve and shook it in order to make a quick decision.
Immediately, several personal guards and military advisors entered the study.
"I wonder what the prince's orders are?"
"Come here, these are exam questions given by the princess. They can test everyone's intelligence. Come and answer them too and share your thoughts on answering the questions."
Pity these generals, some of them don't study much, and they get headaches when they hear that they have to take exams.
Even the military advisor frowned after reading these weird questions.
Finally, everyone brainstormed and finally determined the answer to this paper before sunset.
In the evening, Ning Luo read the answers on the test paper and silently printed out a new test paper, reducing the difficulty of the test questions by half.
The next day, the regent's guards all received a test paper.
The guards had mixed feelings of joy and sorrow. They were happy that the princess treated them as her own to take the test. They were worried that the questions were very difficult. They only regretted that they had not studied well enough and could not answer the questions. It was so embarrassing.
Ning Luo reflected and reflected again and again: As a person who has experienced higher education in modern society, the test questions given to ancient people were indeed a bit difficult and excessive.
On the third day, Ning Luo changed a few question types again.
After Xiao Ding read it this time, he picked up his pen and answered: "It's so simple. I can answer it in a quarter of an hour."
Sure enough, full marks.
In this way, the test questions were finally determined.
Five days later, an examination room was set up in the General's Mansion, and scholars from all over northern Xinjiang took the exam with their household registration certificates in hand.
"Dear candidates, a few days ago the regent executed hundreds of treasonous and corrupt officials. Now there are vacancies in all state governments. The regent has shown favor to scholars in Northern Xinjiang and has specially organized this Enke exam. The exam is divided into two parts and one written exam. An interview.”
"Based on the total scores of the two subjects, official positions will be awarded based on merit-based selection. Please cherish this exam."
After Mo Yu, who was serving as the examiner, announced in a loud voice, hundreds of scholars standing below knelt down and kowtowed, respectfully thanking the regent who was sitting high in the attic in front.
"Thank you, the regent, for your kindness. The regent is a thousand years old."
They are all young students, scholars and scholars who came from all over northern Xinjiang.
Some are gray-haired, and some are still young.
Some were dressed in fine clothes, and some were in rags.
Nowadays, we all have the opportunity to compete on the same field, which is unprecedented.
Xiao Ding nodded slightly to the student below.
"The Prince Regent is exempt from the courtesy," Mo Yu said.
The students then stood up and sat down in front of their desks.
There are pens, inks, paper and inkstones provided by the government on the table.
The candidates are all looking forward to this Enke exam.
I was very excited.
Many of them had failed in the imperial examination many times before, but they didn't expect that the regent would be able to specially open an Enke in Northern Xinjiang, regardless of their background and previous achievements.
It is indeed a blessing for students from poor families.
After studying for many years, who wouldn’t want to seek fame, official robes, and honor the family from now on?
Being an official is about serving the country and the people, and more importantly, it is about making a decent living in the world.
Mo Yu then announced loudly: "The first written test will be taken today. The papers will be distributed and the test will begin!"
After a while, a dozen officials came to the table holding thick examination papers and handing them out.
When the candidates saw the questions on the examination paper, their faces showed surprise.
"Ah, I have never seen such test questions before."
Many people couldn't help but say.
Some of the adjacent candidates started whispering.
There were people who burned the midnight oil and studied hard last night, but when they looked at the test questions today, all their efforts were in vain.
Even those who wanted to cheat were immediately discouraged.
"Quiet." Mo Yu explained loudly:
"The written examination questions of Enke this time are very different from the previous imperial examination questions. They test the flexibility of personal knowledge, so that in the future, officials in northern Xinjiang will be talents who can actually serve the country and the people."
"These test questions look complicated, but they are actually simple." Mo Yu speaks from experience. He has already taken the test three times.
"Everyone, read the questions carefully, write slowly, and then hand in the papers after the exam. The time limit is one day, and the government will take care of the food."
"If there are candidates who really don't know how to answer the questions, they can hand in the papers in advance and leave."
"Yes."
Candidates can only go all out and think intently.
Xiao Ding saw all the candidates frowning and thinking hard, and said to the princess beside him: "If you can't answer these questions, you are indeed not qualified to be an official."
