Chapter 499 From shock to numbness
In the end, no one asked questions on the meaning of the classics. Instead, they selected five questions from Wang Kang's ten questions and formally used them as test questions.
Although he came up with the questions quickly, the discussion was still very slow, because this was the last question he came up with, and the whole morning had already passed.
The final decision was handed over to editor Zhuo Qianhe for record checking.
After the test questions on classics and meanings are over, the next subject, theory!
The so-called discussion is also called trial discussion or discussion.
It is a higher level than Jingyi, and its form is similar to modern argumentative style.
It mainly tests the candidates' ideological understanding and contains articles, theories and remarks that clarify the principles of things...
The scope of this question is relatively broad. It is a comprehensive consideration and is not just limited to ancient books and classics.
Of course, this was also proposed by Wang Kang,
When asking this question, I still followed the previous pattern, everyone's questions were collected and selected, but Wang Kang quickly listed...
And the topic he proposed was undoubtedly exquisite. No matter which angle he looked at, amidst everyone's shocked expressions, what was finally discussed was what he proposed, and he chose from it...
The day passed like this,
Taking two subjects in a row, this speed is already quite fast.
Of course, this is all attributed to Wang Kang's achievements. At this moment, everyone has understood why he dared to say that he could complete it alone.
that's the truth,
We eat and sleep in Yushu Pavilion, and no one goes out.
The next day, the third subject started again,
policy theory,
In ancient times, policy essays referred to articles that discussed current political issues and offered suggestions to the court. The characteristic was that arguments were the center of the writing.
This is a very important item,
It is also a point of emphasis,
It’s also a bonus,
If you write a good policy essay, even if you are not good at other subjects, you still have a chance of being selected, and you can even be directly appointed as an official.
Looking at the important officials in the imperial court, all of them are experts in policy analysis, such as Cai He, who made a big statement before.
Even Wang Kang got into the eyes of Emperor Zhao Jiang Chengli with his policy theory "Teaching War and Defending Policy".
Policy theory is different from others in that it has risen to the national level.
Naturally, the topic should also focus on current affairs, so this topic is quite controversial.
Because there are indeed many problems in Zhao State today.
For example, the foreseeable battle between Yue and Zhao,
How to control the invasion of northern nomads,
Local issues related to people's livelihood and government, water conservancy construction, etc.
Governance, war, management, development, etc. are among them.
How to choose is a question,
But people had a tacit understanding and didn't ask the biggest question.
Cut off the vassal and cut off the nobles!
This is always a fig leaf, everyone knows it, but they don't put it in the open.
Because this matter is too important,
Only choose one topic for the policy discussion,
Each person is given a question, and the final choice is
And people immediately went to see what Wang Kang mentioned. He was born in the Earl's Palace of Fuyang, and was supported by Emperor Zhao to fight against the established nobles.
This identity is very sensitive, and he is also very bold, so he is most likely to cause problems in this area.
The imperial examination is a national event. Isn't this a fig leaf?
Of course Wang Kang is not that stupid. This matter is beyond control.
But it’s too important,
How about Emperor Zhao? Even now he still dares not to be forceful and can only adopt a gentle policy. It can be said that a balanced state has been reached at present.
Even if he wants to break the balance, it should be Emperor Zhao, not him.
At this time, Yan Liqun had already taken the paper written by Wang Kang. There were only a few lines of words on it.
What do you think are the problems existing in Zhao State today? Create your own topic and make suggestions.
After reading it, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Wang Kang did not make any bold statement.
But the topic is very interesting.
Let the candidates come up with their own questions and write their own essays!
There is no set scope or specification, allowing candidates to fully develop themselves...
"This... is very interesting,"
Ji Ning was the first to express his opinion: "It may seem simple, but it is actually extremely difficult. This requires candidates to have a deep understanding of their own country's issues," he said.
"That's true,"
Fang Xiaolian continued: "There is no fixed answer to this, but the answers are varied. After all, everyone has a different opinion."
The conversation begins,
People once again lamented that Wang Kang's thoughts were indeed a bit unconstrained, and he could often find ideas from places that others would never think of.
Make questions,
"I agree with this question and let the candidates develop their own ideas. This is of great significance,"
Yan Liqun agreed: "In this case, these strategies themselves are extremely valuable, and they will be more reference for the development of the imperial court."
Ji Ning responded: "I agree, too."
Suo was stunned and said, "I agree, too."
As the court's political advisors, their responsibilities are to participate in and discuss government affairs.
To develop strategies and solutions for the country, we naturally understand the meaning of this.
"Since it is a restructuring, then we should change it to the end. I agree!"
One after another echoes sounded,
Wang Kang’s proposal was unanimously approved again,
At this time, the three main subjects were all chosen by Wang Kang.
A sense of absurdity came to my mind. From this point of view, they really felt useless.
However, this is only the beginning,
In the next few days, the remaining subjects, Mingfa, Mingcalculation, Mingzi,
Wang Kang once again showed his ability,
Rich experience from previous lives, combining ancient and modern times, various novel question types were used in turn, the same content was tested, but when it came to him, the tricks were changed.
various traps,
If your thinking is incorrect, you will make mistakes.
Reform, this is indeed reform,
From the subjects tested, to the types of questions, even permanently, the most important policy has become an open question!
And everyone has gone from initial shock to numbness!
What a genius! What a genius!
No one can control them, and relatively speaking, these question makers they had in previous years have become decorations.
Besides raising your hands, just raising your hands!
Except for consent, that is consent,
If you want to find fault, you simply can’t!
The originally tense time became much more relaxed with Wang Kang's participation.
Next, I will make a set of preparation questions.
This was in accordance with the original style. At this time, Wang Kang did not interfere too much and only occasionally made some comments.
I still have to give this little face,
Otherwise, will it show you off?
During this period, Wang Kang was also looking for the mole, but did not find any strange candidates...
After spending ten days in Yushu Pavilion, all the test questions were finally settled.
And it was handed over to the editor Zhuo Qianhe to proofread and print it into a volume...
Of course, this process is still completely closed, so the craftsmen involved in printing are also prohibited from having any contact with the outside world...
It is also Wang Kang's suggestion to seal all the test questions that have been submitted. They can only be opened before the scientific examination begins...
After this matter was over, there were only five days left before the imperial examination. Everyone else had already relaxed, but Wang Kang still had very important things to do...
Chapter completed!
