Transmigrating To The Ming Dynastys Imperial Examination - Chapter 306

It was supposed to be the second year of Zhengde in history, but now it is the 20th year of Hongzhi, the prince Zhu Houzhao is finally getting married. Because the emperor Hongzhi did not want to burden the people, this time the draft is still only selected for Liangjiazi in the North and South Beijing.

The prince Zhu Houzhao didn’t have much demand for the future concubine Yuan, only hoped that she could choose a woman who knew the book and gave gifts, and was just like him who loves things and seeks knowledge.

Hongzhi and Empress Zhang are deeply affectionate, and hope that their son will marry a agreeable wife, so they smiled and said: “When the people of the capital enter the palace, you will ask the eunuchs to test their talents and choose a talented person. Queen.”

The prince was very excited. Before marrying his concubine, he took care of the bridegroom officer’s heart and wrote all the topics he cared about. He also asked the two uncles to refer to and help him improve the paper. When the Ministry of Etiquette formally presented the prince’s wedding ceremony, he also twisted his hand and presented the paper to the emperor Hongzhi and asked his father what the question was.

well.

Those who are able to pass the test can be selected as translators in the Siyi Pavilion and follow the translation of “Euclidean Original”.

The emperor Hongzhi was funny, and proudly showed the papers to the cabinet.

The elders of the court have become accustomed to Hongzhi’s complimenting the prince with them, and they are very cold. However, in order to prevent Prince Daming from being able to elect the concubine Yuan, Liu Shoufu dutifully asked the emperor to make the paper simpler.

But the emperor couldnt bear to give his love to his son, and discussed with the elders: “Ladies will live for three months after entering the palace, and then ask them to learn from the eunuchs and the ladies. I see this topic…its not difficult, just Ask them to check the calculation table when they are asked to do the problem. They should be able to do it.”

If it’s a big deal, stay in the palace for a while, and whoever passes the exam first will be sealed.

Daming Li Chaofan has never played such a fresh draft for one hundred and forty years. Is this a queen selection? Would anyone with a daughter outside still marry a daughter into the palace?

The four old patrons couldn’t bear it, and they fought hard according to reason, and finally they fought for the opportunity to reveal the knowledge points to the ladies in advance. But the emperor also firmly set a principle-the original question cannot be disclosed, and only the same type of simulated questions can be leaked. Don’t let the prince’s painstakingly work out the problem to waste.

The four elders could only copy the title and hand it to the officials of the Ministry of Rites and the Imperial College of Western Studies, and the supervising students to explain the solution of the title in detail. Then, according to this example, a few thick stacks of papers were sent to two urgently Government offices, prefectures, and counties in Beijing.

Every candidate lady must have a set at home, one day in advance is counted as one day, and a queen must be tested on time!

This incident was full of ups and downs, but the public’s evaluation of the prince’s magical pen was not bad.

In the past, choosing a concubine was based on beauty and family law, but there were some beautiful and courteous women. Who knows what the emperor and the prince love? On the contrary, nowadays, people who choose concubines by examinations, who are interested in getting their daughters to have a future, have at least a direction. Success or failure depends on their ability, and it can save a lot of money and time for giving gifts.

Many people even went to Ju’anzhai to ask if there was any “Must-have Notes” for sale. I heard that there was no tutorial book, so I bought “Introduction to Western Characters”, “Euclidean Original”, “Introduction to Practical Arithmetic” and a full set of “Daily Agricultural Classics” and went home to force my daughter to endorse.

For a time, the voice of Langlang in Beijing was endless, louder than the reading of scholars before the two exams in the township and society. Even the girls who were not in the candidate age bit their heads and chewed on the “yuan”.

The neighbors on the left and right are all reading books. The sisters in the boudoir must talk about “geometry”. If they don’t understand a few Latin letters, they can’t do the four arithmetic operations, and they don’t know the principle of the microscope, they can’t go out and socialize.

Many people who intend to send their daughters to the palace but never ask their daughters to study, many of them are forced to borrow or buy books for their young girls to study. After this round of election, it is too late, but after reading the books, these young girls can still expect them to marry the prince, prince, or enter the palace as a maid and become a favorite in the future.

These four sets of books have become the four new female books. The original editions of Ju’anzhai were sold out within a few days, and even the pirated books were in short supply.

At first, it was only for women. Later, many scholars went to Ju’anzhai under the guise of buying for their daughters, sisters, and granddaughters to pick books for themselves. They occasionally cared about the female relatives at home, but they didnt understand what they said. It’s too embarrassing to be able to calculate an arithmetic problem done by a little girl…

Jin Yiwei was going to help Shuntian Mansion prepare a chariot, horse, and color shed to welcome the pre-selected ladies. There were still many people who were already in the ranks of candidates and were well informed, so they told this as a joke.

Xie Ying and other commanders, colleagues, and wives also heard about this in Beizhen Fusi, and smiled happily: “At the beginning, the children learned Latin so hard, and those scholars still laughed at us. Articles, you can only learn Fanwen arithmetic, don’t you have to learn Fanren’s things now?”

They learned at least for the sake of their national prestige, which is more than a hundred times better than that of learning so that their wives and daughters do not look down upon them!

They are so easy to overwhelm the literati in reading, and they must maintain this advantage, so that the officials and the children in the family can learn this set of women…this new set of four books!

Xie Ying watched them talking with great enthusiasm, but no one was willing to take the initiative to read the book. She slightly curled her lips and showed a smile: “Women can learn things, how can we not learn things? I only hate the ones printed by Juanzhai. The Fan Xue book is sold out. When I go to find his master to bring a new book, I will pack a set for each of you, and we will all be literati in Jinyiwei!”

He ignored the bitter faces of his colleagues who were about to wrinkle into buns, and went back to persuade Cui Xie to produce a few more beautifully packaged textbooks for selecting concubines.

Recently, Cui Xie was busy preparing the decree for the selection of his concubine, and was busy studying the corn recently tributed by the chief ambassador of Yunnan, but he did not care about the trend of studying in Beijing. It wasn’t until Xie Ying specifically came to tell him about it that he was surprised that the prince had inadvertently increased the reading rate of women in the two capitals and promoted modern mathematics.

The prince has a good life, so you have to praise!

Cui Xie immediately arranged for the treasurer to order a gift box, stepped up to print the luxurious concubine selection gift package “Ladies Must-Read Library”, and printed the simplified version of “Mathematics and Science Must-Read Library” for the ladies’ fathers and brothers. While taking advantage of the opportunity to promote mathematics, physics and chemistry, while taking the time to write a essay in praise of the prince’s ingenious examination and selection of concubines.

What the prince likes is a woman who is willing to search for knowledge attentively. She is good and bad. She is a virtuous prince who is as good as he was in the Eastern Palace today! If the prince concubine and the prince tune together, just like today’s son and the queen, the harem will also save a lot of money, the previous dynasty saves a lot of tedious etiquette, the treasury has ample private treasury, courtiers and people can also live a rich life.

Although it is a little bit harder for the candidate ladies to study, but if they can learn the knowledge of arithmetic, they will get married in the future, and will they be better able to preside over the middle and teach children?

Only when the mother knows the book and the ritual can teach a son who can be the pillar of the country, the young man is strong…

Saint Liang hasn’t been born yet, he, the expert who predicted that Saint Wang will become holy, first borrow some famous lines. Anyway, everyone is in the circle of saints, so he is not welcome.

Although Cui Xie’s poems are not very well written, the articles are of the highest level when they come out, and they started from the eight great masters of Tang and Song Dynasties. The style of writing is strong in Han and Liu, simple and naive, and the expressions are like rivers rushing. Hearts and souls gallop. Da Mings current Chaling faction, who holds the authority of the article, exaggerated the article. What else can ordinary scholars say?

Most of them were persuaded by reading the article, and a few still felt dissatisfied and wrote essays to argue, but they did not have his popularity and could not refute the arguments in his article.

This article quickly spread throughout the two capitals and also into the palace. The prince told him to be so boastful that he couldn’t believe that the wise prince in the article was himself.

Did Gu originally think so?

Did Gu really think so deeply?

Guzhen is a good prince who thinks of the people, and he will have to act accordingly in the future, treating family affairs as a national matter, and thinking about the people of the world everywhere.

The prince pondered for a while, and he had a deeper understanding of his own character of perseverance and love for the people. He determined that when he married the concubine Yuan, he asked her to also write a female scripture to teach the women of the world the importance of seeking knowledge. . After thinking about it, I couldn’t help taking out a book, copying a few more formulas and theorems, and looking for some difficult topics, and I wanted to wait for the imperial concubine Yuan to enter the palace, and the couple would study together.

Although this method of choosing the Yuan concubine was very troublesome to the people of Beijing, but the world is Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, after the exam, he still picked up a talented woman who shared his vision as Yuan concubine.

In history, Zhu Huzhao hurriedly set up after he became the throne. The queen chosen is too transparent in history. Cui Xie doesn’t actually remember who she is, but it is not the current one. This concubine Yuan was from Tongzhou, surnamed Wang, and his father was born as a supervisor like Zhang Guozhang, and she was one of the supervisors selected from the Imperial College to learn Fanwen and Mathematics.

The Wang family learned the origins. Both father and daughter knew Latin, mathematics and geometry, and solved the problems of the prince. Concubine Wang Yuan is also good at planting flowers and plants, and good at painting and calligraphy. Whether it is a cell structure diagram or a map of the world in the Prince’s study, she can trace it, which is simply what the prince has longed for.

Zhu Houzhao has shown the temperament of a winner in life since he got married. Every time Cui Xie talked to him about current affairs and farming, he couldn’t help showing off his concubine.

However, Cui Xie firmly held the show of affection and despised the little boy’s frivolity in his heart.

Isn’t it just a question? What’s to show off? Back then, Xie Ying could make a high-level liquor with the sketch on the chemistry book. Who did he show off to? He always sent a few altars to the teacher and Shangguan’s house very low-key, and said lightly, “This is Xie’s family wine.”

Teacher Cui doesn’t care about this kind of hairy boy, but after returning home, she plans to do things that couples should do with Xie Ying.

For example, show affection.

Of course, you can’t be as ostentatious as a young person, but you can’t just stay at home and enjoy the world of two people, always go shopping, eat, watch movies and so on.

In order to experience the feeling of a young person taking a coke and popcorn to the cinema for a date, Xueshi Cui decided to spend a lot of money to pack a few days in the Huangjia Huayuanzi, repeatedly reproduce the pictures made by Ju’anzhai, and invited several famous classes in Beijing. The latest pictures co-dubbed by famous actors.

Yang Ting and Xueshi began preparations during the Chenghua reign. It was because of the emperor Chenghua and Wan Guifei that they could not arrange the masterpiece-“Qinglianji”.

The play tells the story of Qinglian lay Li Bai and his friends Liu and Yang, who were falsely imprisoned for offending Gong Zhongliang and Wei Er Lishi. Later, they were able to show their grievances under the rescue of the court and Gao Lishi. The remonstration envoy Shengtianzi dealt with the story of Liangwei’s second prison.

This play is made up of dozens of additions and deletions made by Mr. Yang over the past twenty years.

Every action of the people in the play has a shadow in his heart. Asking the actor to act can not act like Li Dongyang, Liu Zan, and Yang Yingning in his memory. So he pointed to Cui Xie almost one picture, one picture to draw a small picture, and then enlarged it with the background and special effects to make a more refined painting than the original selection of “Jinyiwei on the Storm” shadow.

The movie is still being performed during the Lantern Festival, but there is no need to wait until the end of the holiday on the 19th. The Huang family made a room for them early. From the 15th to the 17th of the first lunar month, the best days are reserved for this movie. Blockbuster.

Cui Xie is also determined to spend a good Lantern Festival with Xie Ying, and don’t delay their relationship with each other every time to eat reunion dinner according to the season.
