The Little Officials of the Song Dynasty

Although in modern times, many people criticize exam-oriented education for not being able to improve students' overall quality and become people who can only take exams, but for Zhao Yunchu now, it is actually the best way.

Now we should focus on the examination, and study what the examination may test.

As for how to drill and research, many people have their own different methods.

For example, betting on questions, I think there were two famous teachers in Yun Yanhui’s high school grade, a chemistry teacher with a betting accuracy rate of 80.00%, and a geography teacher who bet on the questions of two test papers for them, and the result was the same. He didn't win... In a sense, he is considered a genius, so everyone got the questions he bet on and always used them to eliminate them.

Therefore, guessing the questions is also a very technical job. Rather than guessing the questions, it is better to say guessing the heart, which requires a person who understands the meaning very well.

Most clans are far away from the court.The imperial court used high-ranking officials and rich salaries to support them and prevented them from getting too close to courtiers.This is because the imperial court is afraid of the clan and intends to raise and abolish the clan.

Although Zhao Yuanyan was also a well-known virtuous person in the world back then, otherwise he would not have been stared at by Empress Liu. For more than ten years, he said that he was ill and did not go to court, and things were different, so he didn't know much about Renzong.

On the contrary, Yunyan came back here, Bao Shaoyin of Kaifeng Mansion was a Jinshi of the last subject, if it hadn't been for Grand Master Pang's obstruction, he was clearly a top three candidate, and now he is a close minister of the emperor, managing the Gyeonggi area.Yunyan went back to find Bao Zheng for help, and asked him to help bet on the title.

Bao Zheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he said that the government is so busy, how can we have time to give you any questions.

In the end, Yun Yanhui still had the cheek to ask Bao Zheng to draw the range, and then marked the key points by himself, made knowledge point sticky notes, and summarized a large amount of memorized content with the abbreviated learning method... and so on.

At this time, Yun Yanhui couldn't help thinking about the derivatives of modern and developed exam-oriented education, such as "Three Years of XX and Five Years of XX", "Huang X Secret Volume", "Wang Xxiong Xue Case" and other various guidance books and test papers.

Yunyan went back and got a lot of notes and small notes for Zhao Yunchu, and ran to the palace every day after work to urge him to study.

"Let me tell you, you wrote these yourself, and then asked your husband to help you correct them. After the corrections, you memorized them. If you encounter this direction in the future exams, you can write them silently and correct them. As for how to correct them, I will teach you……"

The so-called universal template is just like this. May I ask which student has not memorized several composition templates in school?

Zhao Yunchu had a rather sad face, "This..."

"Come on, Xiao Chu, you can do it! You have to think about it, whether it's the pain for a while, or the pain for a long time." Yun Yan took Zhao Yunchu's hand back and said, "If the government really held an exam for the clan's son, it must be You won't be able to pass the long-term test this time, and you have to continue the test next time. Don't you have to study all the time in the middle? I think your father hired a husband, and I'm afraid he also has the same intention to take the test again and again."

Zhao Yunchu's face was blank, and his brothers heard it, but they were all blown up, "If this is the case, what do we have to do? The old man's lectures are very boring! No one is allowed to go out every day, I have been doing it for so long No more brothels!"

"No, I'm going to be so stubborn. Anyway, I'm sleeping when he's talking about the one-month class, and I'm sleeping when he's talking about the one-year class!" It was obviously the second brother of the Zhao family who said this.

"Hey, I don't want to be an official, let alone do something..." This is the eldest brother of the Zhao family. According to the clan's practice, as the eldest son, he can at least be made a Duke. If he doesn't do anything, he is a master.

The rest of the crowd was furious, which made it even more obvious that Zhao Yunchu was out of the situation.

Yun Yan shook her hand in front of him a few times, "What are you thinking?"

As if awakened by a start, Zhao Yunchu lowered his eyes shyly, his eyelashes were drawn down long, and he glanced at Yunyan's hand that was holding back in his palm.

Yun Yan replied: "..."

Yun Yan took a deep breath: "Xiao Chu, did you hear what I just said?"

Zhao Yunchu: "??"

Yun Yan flicked his head back, "I'm talking to you, I'm still distracted!"

Yun Yanhui stated the disadvantages again, Zhao Yunchu finally understood and panicked, "Who knows how often the government calls for an exam, if it is true, it will be a second exam, we don't live like this every day .”

He originally thought that it would be enough to deal with it once, but after Brother Yan said this, he realized that there was a second possibility, because he really didn't have the concept of studying hard before.Passing the exam N times, and only when the hair turns gray in the exam will the official become an official. Such things only exist in the ears.

"Then I'll choose short pain." Zhao Yunchu gritted his teeth and made up his mind.

He is not a person without perseverance, otherwise he would not be able to insist on getting up every morning to go to court, nor is he a stupid person, otherwise he would not be able to read obscure scriptures.As long as he has this idea, he can fully cooperate with Yun Yan to return.

……

The princess was very worried at first, she just watched it with her own eyes. When Zhao Yunchu was a child, she insisted on doing homework with Yun Yanhui. I stayed in a daze all afternoon and did nothing.

However, the son has grown up after all, and Brother Yan has become more cunning, so he really pushed Zhao Yunchu to work harder!

The concubine only looked at Mr. Zhao Yunchu, who was a hundred times more diligent than his brothers who tried to be lazy. Even when Yunyan was away, he was also doing the test questions assigned by others, so she was very pleased.

And what she didn't expect was that Brother Yan seemed to be half illiterate, and when asked about the contents of "Poetry" and "Book", he had only a half-knowledge, but it was really like what he said, he didn't understand just because he couldn't read well, not because he didn't know how to read. read.On the contrary, he can't read anymore!

Princess Wang didn't think there was anything wrong with Yun Yanhui's method. On the contrary, she thought it was very good and efficient.

However, after the princess and the gentleman invited by the prince saw this situation, they were very angry.

At the beginning, Zhao Yunchu asked him for advice, and he was very happy, because Zhao Yunchu's brothers were all lazy, not at all like his father, if he taught one, he would at least live up to the king's entrustment.The old man is an old Hanlin, and he has known the prince for decades.

But later, the old gentleman discovered that Zhao Yunchu was struggling to memorize his revised articles, and after thinking about it carefully, these are the subjects that the court and officials have paid much attention to recently, and the content can be widely used, so he suddenly understood.

There have always been students who bet on questions, but the scope of the imperial examination questions is too wide, military, agriculture, government affairs, commerce, diplomacy... the governance of the entire country, any aspect may become a test question, so it is impossible to put all hopes on the bet. on topic.

As for Zhao Yunchu's move, he did not know where to get the latest information, worked hard to bet on the questions, and looked at the usual way of reviewing, it was simply dumbfounding.This is not even studying for the purpose of being an official, it is studying for the exam!

It's really insulting to the gentleman, the old gentleman called the prince here.

……

The prince came to see his sons studying for no reason, and what he saw was that Zhao Yunchu worked very hard, but his study method was very strange, and he practiced the test questions crazily on certain aspects.

Zhao Yuanyan was very surprised by this kind of cripple who studied the Fa with one leg extremely long and the other very short.

After careful understanding, Zhao Yuanyan couldn't help sighing: "Your senior brother Yan really has never changed, even the method of reading can be so utilitarian, and it is actually for the official's invitation to test."

Zhao Yunchu was puzzled, "Father, is that good or bad?"

Zhao Yuanyan said: "It is good for you, but if this method is spread, it will be bad for Song Dynasty." How much less.

However, for Zhao Yunchu, it really couldn't be more suitable.Even if a general move is successful by opportunistically, it will not be much better if it is revealed in the future.But even if Zhao Yunchu revealed his secrets, the officials would not do anything to him.

Zhao Yunchu said thoughtfully: "For example, a person like the third brother, who studies like this, can still win the exam. Being an official is a harm to one party..."

Zhao Yuanyan: "...how did you talk, it's your own brother anyway."

Zhao Yuanyan patted Zhao Yunchu on the head, "Brother Chu, this is a great opportunity. The official family intends to support the clan. Calling for an official position is only the first step. If you grasp it well, I don't need to be thick-skinned for you in the future. gone."

This is the "old rule" of the clan. To ask for official titles for one's own descendants, the closer the clan is, the more this is the case.

From being named as an official at birth to being promoted to be an official, the originally lazy clan children now have motivation. This is an opportunity to change the fate of many people.

Not to mention that the "first step" in Zhao Yuanyan's words even implied that in the future, the children of the clan would not only be able to be appointed as officials, but also hope to be dispatched by envoys, instead of lying down and waiting for money from the court!

Zhao Yunchu didn't have a big goal at first. Although it has something to do with his belief in Buddhism since he was a child, it also has a lot to do with his environment.

Just like when you know that no matter how hard you try, the results will not change much, you will naturally have less motivation to do anything, or your attitude will change a lot.

Zhao Yunchu thought that his favorite thing was to see Brother Yan when he was doing things. He was busy like a bee. The motivation for Brother Yan to work hard was food. Zhao Yunchu thought, then Brother Yan was the motivation for his hard work.

Therefore, Zhao Yunchu clenched his fists and said to Zhao Yuanyan: "Okay, Father, I will definitely work hard to get into Kaifeng Mansion!"

Zhao Yuanyan: "??"

What the hell, who told you to enter Kaifeng mansion?Don't mess with your goals!
