Datang: Li Shimin begged me to rebel

When the military department finalizes the relevant matters, it will wait for the arrival of the Baekje and Silla envoys. According to their speed, it is estimated that it will take about four or five days to reach Chang'an.

Li Ke, on the other hand, didn't pay attention to this matter after finalizing the relevant policies. He was paying attention to Datang's first national exam.

Although it is not a college entrance examination, it is indeed from a certain perspective the selection of the first batch of university researchers for the entire Datang.

This time the exam adopted a special format, and the overall exam was divided into three days.

Take one exam each morning and afternoon, and the time for each exam is different from only one or two hours in later generations, but four hours.

Similarly, all the examination rooms Li Ke also referred to the imperial examinations of the later Ming and Qing dynasties. There are separate examination rooms, and each examinee is a single room just like a prison cell. Only drinking water will be provided within four hours. .

In addition, if they go to the toilet, they will be led directly by the local military soldiers of Datang. Yes, the soldiers in charge of the examination will be directly in charge of the local garrison.

Because after Li Ke thought it over, he felt that the probability of soldiers being corrupted by outsiders must be lower than that of members of the local security forces.

Of course, Li Ke is talking about the future. For now, this problem does not exist.

He is now more concerned with forming a system.

Of course, the duration of this system will not last for many years. After all, with the increase of the population of Datang and the increase of candidates in various places, such a system is no longer needed.

But for now it is still needed.

The reason why it was formulated in this way, and so much time was given, is because Li Ke's test paper this time has a somewhat large number of questions.

The subjects of the test are only Chinese, mathematics, physics, chemistry, geography, and politics, a total of six subjects, and the results of the test are exactly three days old.

But the content in the test paper is not only large, these test questions actually include some test questions that are used to test what the candidates have learned and what they are good at.

Li Ke's idea is very simple. It is impossible to expect them to learn it now. It is impossible to finish the systematic study like the later generations. There are special methods for special times.

Therefore, when Li Ke writes questions, not only the amount of questions is large, but also the focus of the questions is different. There will be instructions at the beginning of the test paper, telling them that the questions cannot be finished within four hours theoretically. .

You can choose what you are good at, and the scoring focus of each test paper is also different.

For example, many topics in politics and Chinese have been related to local management, governance concepts, and so on.

Similarly, in the Chinese test paper, there are some questions that require them to use concise articles such as classical Chinese to give short answers.

But there are also some questions that require them to explain the short answer in vernacular.

However, Li Ke did not directly explain the short answer method, but hid it in the question to see if any candidates can reflect this.

Although Li Ke has always asked everyone to answer questions in vernacular Chinese, he did not abandon classical Chinese, and some cultural inheritance can also be passed down.

Although there is a shortage of talents now, there will be no shortage of talents in the future. Those who are willing to learn these things should let them learn.

These are the signs of civilization and cultural inheritance.

This time, Li Ke, the candidate who took the exam, did not have specific statistics, because the specific data had not been fully transmitted back, but there were test centers in almost all intermediate schools in Datang.

Theoretically, all candidates who have completed middle school must participate. Of course, it is estimated that there will be temporary registrations at that time, because even if the school is established, it is not like the future generations will have student status and degrees.

Many people will definitely not go to school, and these people will definitely take the exam. Li Ke allows them to temporarily register in a nearby middle school.

Therefore, the numbers of the specific candidates can only be passed back to Chang'an City after the exam is over.

June [-]th was the first day of mid-June, and the first brand new exam that the entire Tang Dynasty was watching officially began.

Candidates from all over the country entered the examination room in neat queues, each with their own unique number and admission ticket.

After entering the examination room with these things, soldiers naturally took them to the examination place.

And outside the examination room, there are also countless parents who come to send their children to the examination. Most of these people belong to good family backgrounds. I dare not say that they are from aristocratic families, but at least their income is considered to be the middle class of Datang. class.

And some low-level people also have candidates who come to take the exam, but these parents have no time to send them off, but some candidates come together.

But on the whole, the number of candidates from the bottom class must be a small part.

Li Ke personally went to the outside of one of the several test centers set up in Chang'an City to take a look. It was almost the same as the college entrance examination in later generations. Although the candidates entered, there were always parents outside, or family members. The long follower waited there.

And the fully armed soldiers standing guard at the door blocked everyone's thoughts of approaching.

This time the exam did not meet Li Ke's requirements, but Li Ke believed that this must be a good start. Of course, many people probably would not have imagined that the original purpose of this exam was for Li Xin.

Li Daozong's biological daughter, Li Ke wanted to see what kind of grades she could get in the exam. To be honest, Li Ke had already experienced the joy of being a teacher who gave questions in later generations.

Tsk tsk, think about these candidates seeing the collapse of their own questions, this feeling is not ordinary, although the real god of learning doesn't care about this.

The news of the war between Goguryeo and Silla Baekje was actually passed on, but for most people, or for most of the powerful families who could know the news.

Like Li Ke, they didn't care about the news at all. In their view, this exam was the most important thing.

During the three-day exam, Li Ke didn't go anywhere, and didn't even deal with some government affairs, but was waiting for the report from Chang'an City.

On the third day, when all the test papers were collected, someone immediately sealed all the test papers and transported them away.

And it was Datang's elite troops who were in charge of sealing and transporting the test papers.

Li Ke randomly selected them as a special task for them. The test papers in each region were corrected by local teachers in fixed places.

The final answer will be announced directly to the public, and it is impossible to gather it together. This is different from the imperial examinations in history. The gap between the number of imperial examinations in history and this is too great.
