Chapter 460: Detailed Rules for the Imperial Examination

Ma Chao, who was in the big office of the county guard's mansion, had no idea that there was already a situation in the backyard of his house where the flames were about to rise and the dark tide was surging. At this time, he was biting the quill pen and looking at the "Detailed Rules for the Imperial Examination" written by Bu Qi.

The major events of the imperial examination involve a lot, and the impact is even more significant, so we must not be sloppy. But no matter what Ma Chao thought, he couldn't imagine that Bu Qi would be able to make such a thick pile of wind-supporting paper.

It is no exaggeration to say that the "Detailed Rules for the Imperial Examination" produced by Buqi in the past two months can almost be called a magnificent masterpiece in this era - in addition to Fufeng, most of the states in the Han Dynasty still have bamboo chips as a carrier for writing. And the so-called Xuefu Wuche, in fact, is about equivalent to all the textbooks of primary school students in the previous life - this "Detailed Rules for the Imperial Examination" is sprinkled, with a total of 80,000 words, including the process, subjects, and systems of the imperial examination, as well as the selection of talents for officials involved in the imperial examination.

It can be said that Buqi's "Detailed Rules for the Imperial Examination" embodies his feelings of repaying his gratitude for forgetting to sleep and eat for two months, and what he felt and thought in the first half of his life. Naturally, this also contains the hard work of all the Han literati in the entire Ma family. Because before Bu Qi put pen to paper, he asked the opinions of all the Han scholars of the Ma family one by one, and those people were always in their busy schedules, repeatedly discussing and arguing with Bu Qi and paying attention to the progress of this "Detailed Rules for the Imperial Examination".

Ma Chao's eyes were open, not about the institutional process of the imperial examination. It is a reform proposal for the entire Yongzhou, and even the entire Dahan education.

At the beginning, Bu Qi made a clear and sharp judgment on the education of the Han Dynasty: the great lords of the scholar clan have an absolute resource advantage, while the Han scholars have almost no way to live. Even if you spend your whole life in poverty, it is difficult to fight for fame, a way to advancement, and eventually become a laughing stock. Therefore, in this article, Bu Qi focuses on the teaching of the Han Dynasty and makes a detailed description.

In fact, there was only one government-run school in the Han Dynasty, and that was Taixue in Luoyang. Although in its heyday, the number of Taishu scholars reached more than 30,000, but compared to the entire number, it was only a drop in the middle. Because, the condition for entering Taixue is to recommend and inspect, and the two items of recommendation and inspection are completely monopolized by the lord of the scholar clan and the relatives of the emperor. As a result, students from poor families have no way out.

And the rest of the private schools have become a trend. During the period of Emperor Wu, the schools in the country were like forests, and some colleges and schools had thousands of students, and there were as few as a dozen students. It is a pity that after the corruption of the dynasty, the people can no longer afford to send teenagers to school. After the Yellow Turban Rebellion, private schools across the country even left only Yingchuan College.

Moreover, the teaching of the Han Dynasty did not have any grade and grade order. Only those who continue their studies after many years of enrollment can enter the 'Jingshe' or 'Jinglu' to study, which is equivalent to the university in the previous life, and the primary school that initiates literacy education is called 'Mengguan' or 'Shuguan'. But it is worth noting that these private schools are not recognized by the imperial court at all. In the county, except for those famous students in the famous 'Jingshe', if the others have no scholar background, it is difficult for them to enter the ranks.

In response to this, Bu Qi highly affirmed the Ma family's practice of running schools at the end. And the Ma family's school was divided into two levels, namely the county school and the county school. Among them, the county school teaches the elementary course of enlightenment literacy, etiquette and wisdom. The county school teaches practical matters, such as Gewu, policy theory, the six arts of the gentleman, professional arithmetic, and so on.

As a result, the students learned in Majiajun may not be brilliant or resourceful.

But what is certain is that they all have at least one skill or talent to use. As long as they are given a framework, they will be able to implement all kinds of rules and regulations very well in this framework.

And if this continues, when the county school students under the Ma family are flooded with various departments of the Ma family, Ma Chao can proudly fight back. Because, at that time, even the world's scholars will have a comprehensive resistance to the Ma family. But as long as the Ma family's policy remains unchanged, he already has a steady stream of students under him to maintain the normal operation of various functional departments.

Of course, this process may be a bit long, but for now, it is the best.

Quietly changing the pattern is the supreme realm of 'goodness like water'. At the same time, this is also the shining point of the collective wisdom of Buqi and Ma Jiahan's students.

And the last part of this discourse is the student admission system, that is, the imperial examination system of the Ma family.

The scope of the Ma family's imperial examination, Bu Qi just chose the level of county school. It also explains that after passing the imperial examination, you can enter the Ma family as an official or be recommended by the Ma family to study in Taixue or serve in the imperial court, in line with Confucius's concept of 'learning and excellence is a scholar' and the allusion of Emperor Wu's academic bachelor entering the office.

Because for a period of time, the Ma family could not have a head-on conflict with the Shi clan, and they had to be appeased by the name of 'Taixue', so that the students of the Shi clan thought that they were superior to the poor students of the state and county.

It's just that if there is chaos today and the Han family is in decline, who would be stupid and not do a good official, but instead go to the court to study too much, or go to the court where the conspiracy is like a sea and the future is bleak? Don't you see, now that the imperial court is recruiting talents, those who have learned are either unable to get sick or resolutely dismissed? Of course, there are many of those who are fame-seeking guys who are fame-grabbing, but it can also be seen that the imperial court is no longer the holy place that those scholars yearn for. Otherwise, why would Tian Feng, Xun Yu, Xi Zhicai, Liu Ye, Cheng Yu and other cattle people prefer to be staff members under the princes rather than become officials in the court?

Are they stupid? They have no reputation?

Big joke!

What's more, there is another reason why those who served the Ma family through the Ma family's imperial examination is that Ma Chao has the grace to guide these students from the imperial examination, how can they be ungrateful? Of course, if there are those guys who don't have open brains, the Ma family won't want them. Moreover, Ma Chao will also wonder how this guy's strategy subject was passed......

Ma Chao basically didn't look at it in detail when he saw this, because the rest of the chapters are detailed records of the subjects, regulations, processes, systems, and so on of the imperial examination. For the detailed rules of these entries, Ma Chao basically looks at the general situation: what is checked by Yang Fu, there is no possibility of major mistakes.

But even so, even if Ma Chao still had the skill of scanning a hundred lines and reading novels in his previous life, he had watched it for an afternoon. And Yang Fu and Buqi have been by Ma Chao's side, and when Ma Chao asks questions or discusses, they come forward to answer questions. By the time Ma Chao took out the last page, it was already dark.

To be honest, Ma Chao's eyes were a little moist after reading it - this "Detailed Rules for the Imperial Examination" has a total of three articles and nine volumes, which are classified into detailed categories and detailed demonstrations and regulations on the education of the Han Dynasty, the entry into the office, and the reform of the imperial examination of the Ma family. It can be seen that in the past two months, Buqi has been exhausted and meditated!

And it was not until this time that Ma Chao found that although Bu Qi was slightly better dressed than when he came, more than two months of hard work made him more skeletal and his face withered - it was really a blessing for him to have such a dedicated and grateful subordinate as Bu Qi!

"Zishan, why is it so painstaking?" Ma Chao had already walked in front of Bu Qi at this time, patted him on the shoulder, and asked in a choked voice that he was trying to suppress.

"One is to repay the kindness of the teacher, and the other is that the student wants to seek hope for the poor people in the world!" Bu Qi knelt on the ground and said sincerely.

Ma Chao was really moved at this time, this sentence reminded him of the Jia fox who was over half a hundred years old and was still surrounded by wolves; thinks of those sisters who lived in dire straits and used their youthful bodies to exchange information for the Ma family; I also thought of the conscientious and dedicated strategists and civil officials under him, as well as the generals and warriors who fought bravely on the battlefield to kill the enemy and repay them with their lives.

Those who are alive and dead, they come to their side, and what they want to pursue is not exactly a 'hope' that sounds very ethereal and very empty?

"The Ma family is really fortunate to have three lives!" Ma Chao finally sighed with gratitude, and finally swore with his fists: "Chao swears here, I will use this little body and go all out to create a world where the world is clear and the people are happy!" ”
