Chapter 408 Zhu Yuanzhang’s Imperial Examination Questions

While Ye Xuan was sighing with emotion, Zhu Yuanzhang was also making final thoughts.

As an emperor, Zhu Yuanzhang seemed a little paranoid.

For example, this time, it was clear that he wanted Ye Xuan to release water in order to reduce the difficulty and expand the team of Ming officials so that he could better manage Ming Dynasty.

But what about the result? Until the exam started, he was still not sure which plan he should use.

Ye Xuan had actually prepared a set of questions for the imperial examination before, and Zhu Yuanzhang also read them and found the questions very interesting since they were a lot of thought.

But the only problem is that when this kind of question is used for exams, the meaning of letting go is too obvious.

If I were not here, this matter might not be too noticeable. Even in the history books, I only need to use some Spring and Autumn brushwork to pass it by.

But the problem is that now he personally presides over the palace examination. He is an emperor, and he is also a hero who will surely make the Ming Dynasty far away from the Han and Tang Dynasties in the future.

If you use questions like Ye Xuan's, I'm afraid it will leave some flaws in your great achievements.

As for the topics he had prepared, Zhu Yuanzhang thought about them, but he always felt that they were a bit empty talk. As long as he could write splendid articles, he would be able to answer them with good accuracy.

Thinking that this time he was going to select talents for the country, and it was also used to fill 510 vacancies in the court.

These people will have great responsibilities in the future, and they have a long way to go.

Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly thought of a question, so he motioned to the eunuch not to read out the test questions yet, and then waved to the eunuch to come to him.

The eunuch understood and hurriedly approached Zhu Yuanzhang. After Zhu Yuanzhang finished explaining, he trotted back to his original position and spoke Zhu Yuanzhang's topic in a very high tone.

"Edict: God bless the Ming Dynasty, so that today's territory and people's livelihood can be achieved. God bless the cultural line, so that it can last for thousands of years or hundreds of years! Today's academic subjects are open, regardless of the words of saints and sages, regardless of the splendor of literature! I only want to ask one thing, You can speak freely!"

After explaining the reason for the question, the eunuch paused briefly to give the candidates time to react and the officials on the side to take notes.

After a while, he continued to shout: "Since the current government is selecting talents for the country, I would like to ask you to write a policy review with the title of national policy and court situation! You can express your thoughts directly, whether it is military or political!"

After announcing the test questions, the eunuch stepped aside knowingly.

Ye Xuan felt funny in his heart. After all, Zhu Yuanzhang organized such a lot of words. To sum up, there is only one purpose. He wants to be a person who does practical things and has ideas.

But he didn't know whether these candidates could understand Zhu Yuanzhang's intentions. He was also curious whether those who had obtained the qualifications for the palace examination by virtue of their outstanding literary talent could still use their strategies to defeat Zhu Yuanzhang.

You know, although the explanation is superficial, officials all say that the country is governed by the principles of Confucius and Mencius.

But in reality? Everyone knows that if it were not for Confucianism and Legalism, the court might have been in chaos long ago.

Moreover, many idealistic things are impossible to achieve if they are really put into practice and used to govern the country.

If nothing else, it is just like what is described in the book. In the past, sages ruled the world and people did not pick up lost things on the road.

But it is nothing more than a vision. If we ignore the economics and ideas of the time and apply it blindly and treat it as a royal paradise, "then the final outcome will only be a joke."

After all, the challenge in this kind of thing is not the clarity of the government, but human nature itself.

While he secretly cursed in his heart, the candidates all breathed a sigh of relief.

They were worried before that this time Zhu Yuanzhang was only invigilating the exam, but the exam questions were provided by Ye Xuan.

Or maybe Zhu Yuanzhang's question is more tricky and difficult to answer than Ye Xuan's.

Now that the questions are announced, candidates can almost describe their emotions and feelings as ecstatic.

You must know that they are all disciples of Saint, and what they pay most attention to is articles and morals.

Although these people have no experience in governing the country, they have read many history books. According to the situation in the book, they can compare the current situation and then remove the shortcomings of another system or strategy. Then they can use it as a theme to write about. Publish a beautiful article.

As for (bhbg) Zhu Yuanzhang said before that he doesn't care whether the diction is gorgeous or whether it is the words of the Saint, these candidates did not hear it at all.

They already had a tacit understanding at this moment and knew that Zhu Yuanzhang was going to draw materials this time, so the psychological pressure was almost completely eliminated.

At this moment, everyone had a similar idea, that is, as long as they did not say anything Zhu Yuanzhang didn't like to hear, or touch some of the court's taboos.

Even if the performance is not good this time, it will not be dangerous. As for whether the policy is feasible, that is not what they should consider at all.

Among the people, only Xie Jin looked complicated.

He originally thought that he could show his talents and knowledge or his ability to adapt to Zhu Yuanzhang.

But when he saw Zhu Yuanzhang in person, he was so frightened that he lost his temper.

Nowadays, when answering questions, the questions are about current affairs, and my words seem to have become an auxiliary, rather than the focus.

Trying to get rid of the helplessness in his heart, Xie Jin thought for a moment and then wrote quickly.

Although he may be regarded as a scholar, he was actually very concerned about current affairs, and he had traveled to various places to study, and then lived in Yingtian for many years.

He asked himself that he had a good understanding of the political situation and decrees of the Ming Dynasty. He also knew some pros and cons and thought about how to change some problems.

Now that I have calmed down, I have sorted out my past thoughts one by one, and writing articles is naturally like divine help.

Compared with Xie Jin, Yang Chun seemed a little disappointed.

He has been studying poetry and books hard over the years, and there is no official in his family. If he wants to understand the situation of the government, he can only rely on rumors and some news announced by the government.

In this case, it is really difficult for him to say something meaningful.

As for Zhao Jing, who had made a bet with Xie Jin before, she was crying and writing for a long time, but could not write a word.

It's not that he has no ability, it's just that he has too many worries and isn't courageous enough, so he doesn't dare to write down some of the things he thinks of on paper.

After an unknown amount of time, Zhao Jing finally plucked up the courage and began to reconceive and surrender.

Soon, someone wrote a policy paper and handed it to the emperor.

Because Zhu Yuanzhang personally took the exam, almost all the examination papers were handed over to Zhu Yuanzhang in person for review before being shown to other examiners.

Of course, this kind of thing can only be seen, and the decision-making power lies entirely in Zhu Yuanzhang's hands, so even if they saw it, they did not dare to make unnecessary comments.

When the last candidate handed in his paper, the excitement that could not be concealed on Zhu Yuanzhang's face finally dissipated.

He looked at a pile of test papers, but at this moment he started to have some troubles.

In the previous reviews, he had already eliminated many unqualified ones.

But even so, the amount in front of him made him a little unsure of how to deal with it. .
