Peek at my diary, Cao Cao dominates the Three Kingdoms

Lu Yan shook his head violently, throwing out this dangerous thought.

In the current situation, although I dare not say that the introversion in the education field started from Lu Yan, at least it can be said that the severity of the introversion has been raised several steps by Lu Yan himself.

Countless dignitaries also tried their best to send people to the Tai Academy, but they were all rejected by Lu Yan without exception.

Only those confidantes who followed Cao Cao to fight the world have a place. Even a genius like Zhuge Liang, who is one in a million, can only pass the exam to enter the Taixue. Still somewhat taken for granted.

Although the three of them had been prepared in their hearts, they still couldn't help showing disappointment when Lu Yan shook his head and declined.

Lu Yan explained: "The Tai Academy will be the fairest place for poor families and ordinary people in the world to compete with aristocratic families.

If one can easily enter by relying on connections or credit, wouldn't Tai Academy become a private promotion channel for meritorious officials and even aristocratic families?So, can you understand? "

"Understood, we are greedy..."

"After I go back, I will let my grandson study hard. In the future, he will also be able to take the exam fairly and be admitted to the Imperial Academy with his own ability!"

"Very good, by the way, in fact, your children are not without opportunities." Lu Yan's words surprised the old farmers, and they all raised their heads to look at Lu Yan firmly, "In addition to Confucianism and classics, Taiyuan Academy mainly tests arithmetic. , Engineering mainly tests the understanding and creativity of various technologies, "

"Ah! It's a pity that my children can only play with mud now..."

"Oh... I knew I would let the children learn a craft!"

But the old farmer exclaimed, "Mother! My grandson has loved carpentry since he was a child, and he just worshiped an old carpenter in the workshop as his teacher. Doesn't that mean that my grandson has hope to be admitted to the Imperial Academy? ? ?”

Lu Yan smiled and nodded: "Yes, there is indeed a lot of hope. I might as well remind you that after you go back, ask your grandson to record every word and deed of the carpenter, and try to figure it out from experience. It makes sense, it will be of great help during the exam.”

"Thank you General Hussars for your guidance!" After the old farmer thanked Lu Yan, he suddenly laughed wildly: "Wow ha ha ha ha!!! I feel that my grandson's future is bright!"

The two old farmers looked at the old farmer with envy, and they also vowed in their hearts that after returning home, they would let their grandson go to the government-run academy to learn some skills or learn a craft.The chance to change your destiny is really rare, you must seize it!

After explaining a few words, Lu Yan left the workshop with a few more potatoes.

Now the variety of spices is very complete, how can I live up to my reputation as a foodie if I don’t go back and make a pot of roast beef with potatoes?

......

Half a month later, many students from Yanzhou, Xuzhou and even Huainan came to Chenliu.

Not only noble families and gentry, but also many humble scholars and ordinary students, they will work together for their own ideals, fair examination and fair competition.

The examiner will only be appointed by Prime Minister Cao Cao one day before the exam, and the exam questions will be opened during the exam and distributed to candidates on the spot.

The test questions were set by Lu Yan, Xun Yu, Yang Biao and others, and the examination papers were printed inside the workshop. Under the supervision of the shadow guard, no one could disclose the test questions.

The day of the exam was getting closer and closer, and Chenliu City was already overcrowded, and many commoners and poor students could only live in villages outside the city.

The wisdom of the people has never been underestimated, and Chenliu's business is prosperous, and the thinking of the people in Chenliu is also relatively active.

Seeing that many students could not find a place to live, some even thought of renovating their houses and renting them out for a short period of time.The earliest homestay was born...

But their rent is very cheap, and they only need a few copper coins a night to pay for their meals.If you give more money, they can still buy you wine and meat.

Compared with those houses controlled by capital in later generations, the people of Dahan are really too kind.

Chapter 158 The Big Exam Begins, Kong Ming Appears

Because the current Taixue examination is not like the later imperial examinations, it has a complete screening process.

Therefore, before the Taixue exam, candidates must go through some preliminary screening.

First of all, candidates must have a clean net worth, a clear place of origin, and must not be a criminal;

Then, there will be an initial test for the corresponding subject. If you can't even pass the initial test, you don't have to take the subsequent test.

After these two rounds, a large group of people who were lucky and pretentious were eliminated, and the pressure on candidates and examiners during the formal examination was greatly reduced.

After passing these pre-screenings, the remaining students can finally take the formal Taixue entrance examination.

On the day of the exam, the identities of the examiners were finally revealed.

The Confucian classics are supervised by the former Taiwei Yang Biao, the current Shang Shu Ling Xun Yu, and the current Yushi Zhongcheng Cheng Yu.

Yang Biao is a great Confucian, with high morals and high prestige, basically the kind used to suppress places.

He only needs to sit in the examination room, and most of the candidates will be obedient and submit obediently, oh no, it is to answer the question.

Xun Yu represents an aristocratic family, while Cheng Yu represents a poor family,

As for the civilians who are qualified to be listed in the examination room with them, it seems that there is only one Lu Yan at present.

But Lu Yan still had to invigilate the engineering exam, he just came to show his face at the beginning, and later Dong Cheng, the representative of the Emperor's Party, came to invigilate the exam on Lu Yan's behalf.

It is impossible for such a grand event to completely ignore the Son of Heaven.

Otherwise, people all over the world will criticize Cao Cao, and even poke Cao Cao's back, scolding him for harboring evil intentions, not being a minister, not being a son of man.

Lu Yan has always called Cao Cao Duke Cao, and he has never concealed his idea that he is helping the people of the Han Dynasty rather than Cao Cao alone.And Lu Yan has never participated in the struggle of the court, so he is also regarded by the emperor as the most worthy neutral party.

Overtly and secretly, the emperor's wooing of Lu Yan never stopped, but Lu Yan's response was not positive.

Lu Yan, Yang Biao and others supervised the examination of Confucian classics, which was proposed by the emperor, but Lu Yan declined because he cared more about engineering and mathematics.

But the emperor's party can't have no one to invigilate the exam.

After Yang Biao was gone, they no longer had any great Confucianists to show for them, so they could only pull out the taller ones from among the dwarfs, and brought out the general Dong Cheng who was riding a car.

Confucianism and Confucianism took the exam the most, with more than 300 people; the number of people who took the exam for Mathematics was the least, only about [-] people.

As for engineering, because the people under Cao Cao knew that Lu Yan valued craftsmen, nearly a hundred people came to take the exam.

These candidates have gone through several rounds of screening.

Regardless of the fact that less than 100 people took the exam in engineering, it was not because craftsmen or their descendants were unwilling to take the exam, but because most of them were illiterate and unable to take the exam.

When the next generation has passed the teaching of the academy, engineering will definitely be a very popular subject in the future, and in the end, Lu Yan and Mao Jie will be invigilated together.

It's just that mathematics is a subject. There are very few people who like to study arithmetic. This time there are only about [-] people taking the exam. It may take a while for everyone to realize the importance of mathematics.So in the end, only one ordinary official came to invigilate the first mathematics subject.

Nowadays, people in the world pay the most attention to the classics of Confucianism. Lu Yan has a long way to go in reforming the discipline.

In the second year of Jian'an, at the beginning of April.

When the spring plowing started in full swing, in the first exam room built in the Imperial College south of Chenliu City, the intense and exciting exams also began.

Lu Yan stood inside the gate of the Taiyuan Academy, looking at the crowd of examinees who were orderly but couldn't help but murmured to himself: "It feels like the time of the college entrance examination!"

But the current scale is not a bit worse than the college entrance examinations of later generations, but the solemn and tense atmosphere at the scene is no less than that of later generations' exams.

In the examination room, in addition to the invigilator, there are also three steps for one post and five steps for one sentry.

"Anyone who cheats, once discovered, the results of each stage and subject reported by him will be invalid, and he will never be hired.

Those who help others cheat..."

In the examination room, the chief examiner, Yang Biao, began to recall the rules of the examination room.

It was the first time that the test invigilators were strict and the penalties for cheating were severe. Therefore, although all the candidates present were nervous, they felt a little more at ease.

Everyone is taking the test based on their own real talents, who is afraid of who?

Confucian classics examination, first there are essays and then theory, and finally there are scriptures and policy theory.As for poems and songs, at least now no one regards them as formal examination content.

Mathematics is about arithmetic problems, while engineering is more about practical skills and solutions to problems.

Confucianism exams take three full days, while mathematics and engineering only need two days to complete.

On the last day, when the policy theory exam started, Lu Yan also came to the exam room to invigilate the exam.

In the huge examination room, there were more than 300 candidates sitting.

Accompanied by Xun Yu and Cheng Yu, Lu Yan stood in the front corner of the examination room.

At this moment, Xun Yu and Cheng Yu were pointing out to Lu Yan some of the talents they had seen before in extremely low voices.

Pointing to Yang Xiu who was sitting on the right side of the center of the examination room, Xun Yu said softly: "Yang Xiuzhi is talented, needless to say..."

Yang Xiu felt something in his heart, and looked up in the direction of Lu Yan and the others.

Seeing Lu Yan, Xun Yu, and Cheng Yu looking at him, Yang Xiu quickly put down the pen in his hand, straightened his kneeling body, and saluted far away.

Lu Yan pressed his hand to signal him to keep a low profile, so Yang Xiu picked up the pen again and began to write with his head down.

Cheng Yu also said softly: "There is also the young man in front of Yang Xiu's left, his talent is also excellent!"

Lu Yan saw that it was Fazheng, so he nodded and said, "I met him by chance before, and his talent is not in Confucianism, but in strategy!"

Xun Yu and Cheng Yu looked at each other, and could clearly see the surprise in each other's eyes, "In this way, we can focus on training!"

In troubled times, the importance of counselors is self-evident.But Lu Yan shook his head and said, "You don't need special care. Young people always have to experience some setbacks to grow."

"That's right, Changsheng, you are thoughtful."

Lu Yan's eyes were still cruising around among the candidates. Looking at him, he seemed to be still looking for better talents.

Seeing this, Cheng Yu said softly: "Changsheng, we also found a talent who surpassed Yang Xiu and Fazheng... No, it should be said to be a genius!"

Lu Yan's eyes lit up, and a strange premonition suddenly rose in his heart, and he asked, "Where is he?"

"Ninth from the left, third from last." Xun Yu said softly.

Looking around, Lu Yan saw that the man was not very old, with red lips and white teeth, and a face like a crown of jade; his gestures seemed to follow some kind of self-discipline, appearing extremely strict, but he looked quite pleasing to the eye.

"Zhuge Liang!!!" This was the name that popped into Lu Yan's mind when he saw him.

Cheng Yu then told his name and origin, "His surname is Zhuge, and his name is a bright character. He comes from the Zhuge family in Langya County, Xuzhou."

Sure enough, it was him, Zhuge Liang!

After the introduction, Cheng Yu couldn't help but sighed softly, and said, "It's difficult for a poor family to have a genius like Zhuge Liang in a hundred years!"

Chapter 159 The general trend of the world, the battle of Cao Yuan is imminent

The three-day exam ended successfully.

In the end, 50 people were admitted to Confucianism, 20 people were admitted to mathematics, and 30 people were admitted to engineering, which happened to be an integer of one hundred.

But there are still eight students who came in through special channels. They are all descendants of the old man who followed Cao Cao to conquer the world.

So the 108 heroes of the Tai Academy finally got together...Just kidding...

Yanzhou's tumultuous Taixue exam was finally successfully completed, which also set a very good example for the princes of the world to attract talents.

Yuan Shao in Hebei can't understand Cao Cao everywhere now.

After he saw that Cao Cao had attracted the attention of countless talents from all over the world with just a grand "show", he also made people open Jizhou College with a decent appearance, and held the entrance examination with the same momentum.

But after all, Yuan Shao is just painting a gourd according to the ladle, and the skin is hard to paint.

His Jizhou College is basically full of children from various families, but it is just another promotion channel opened for the children of the family.

Chen Liutai Academy.

Enrollment in Taixue is scheduled for the end of April. Confucianism does not need Lu Yan to worry about it. He only needs to care about mathematics and engineering.

Although Lu Yan bears the name of a doctor, he is not the one who teaches in the end.

He will only occasionally play a guest role as a teacher and tell everyone something new, so the current job is still relatively easy for the time being.

But when the military and political classes start a year later, Lu Yan, Guo Jia, Xi Zhicai and others will have to give lectures frequently, and then they will not be allowed to go paddling.

......

Speaking of the other two, Lu Yan, Guo Jia, and Xi Zhicai in the Hussar General's residence were drinking tea while analyzing the current situation in the world.

In any case, it is still a troubled time, and there is a strong enemy in the north, Lu Yan and others dare not be careless at all.

Xi Zhicai took a sip of the tea, the faint bitterness of the tea leaves and the lingering sweetness immediately filled his teeth, with a lingering aftertaste,

"Ah, Mr. Lu's stir-fried tea is really wonderful! The brewing process is simple and simple, but the taste of the tea is endless. Compared with tea soup, it seems more back to basics."

Guo Jia also took a sip and said, "What Zhicai said is reasonable.

The tea water brewed from fried tea is clear, and the ups and downs of the tea leaves make people feel that everyone's life is like tea.

The tea is sweet and bitter, and the tea leaves have ups and downs. Isn't it just like this in a person's life, with mixed joys and sorrows, ups and downs? "

Lu Yan gulped down the tea in one gulp, looking like he was chewing peonies, curled his lips and said, "Don't make up so many philosophies, I just can't get used to the taste of tea soup mixed with various things. And you'd better Also drink less tea soup, it is too irritating."

After saying this, everyone's thoughts returned to the focus of this gathering.

It was Xi Zhi who spoke first, and he said to Guo Jia and Lu Yan: "Recently, Xi has nothing to do, thinking about the general trend of the world."

Xi Zhicai's words revealed a trace of grievance, thinking about it, he has been "hidden" by Cao Cao for almost a year.
