After hearing Zhao Ruxi's words, Mrs. Cui was completely relieved.

It seemed that Zhao Ruxi still had to take part in the examination. It was just that she did not want the gentlemen from the Imperial College to be criticized again, so she did not go to the Imperial College to attend classes.

Mrs. Cui also found it a bit difficult to deal with the problem Zhao Ruxi mentioned.

When people live in this world, they must consider others and not be too selfish.

Although Princess Shangde goes to the palace to ask for help, the emperor may agree to let the gentlemen from the Imperial College teach Zhao Ruxi again. But it is not the behavior of a gentleman to force others. Once Princess Shangde opens her mouth, the emperor and the gentlemen from the Imperial College will definitely have a good impression of Zhao Ruxi.

Big discount.

"Don't worry, Master. I originally expected that we would encounter this kind of situation after the provincial examination, so I asked all the gentlemen about the problems I encountered. Without their guidance, maybe the ranking in the examination would not be too high, but it should be impossible to pass the examination.

It's a problem." Zhao Ruxi said.

In fact, the format of the questions in the provincial examination and the general examination are similar, and they are all about writing policy essays. It's just that the depth and breadth of the policy essays involving court affairs are different. The imperial examination after the general examination is just a formality. As long as you can test it, you can basically do it.

Be an official. Therefore, the questions in the examination will all involve the government affairs at that time, and you need to put forward your own opinions and suggestions on a certain government affairs.

Zhao Ruxi was originally only slightly deficient in the form of writing articles. After all, she had not been writing classical Chinese since she was a child. Although she had memorized the Four Books and Five Classics because of her good memory, she did not have extensive knowledge of ancient Chinese and was slightly deficient in the use of allusions.

In the past two months, several gentlemen from the Imperial College made a list of books for her to borrow and read in the Imperial College to make up for her shortcomings in this area; they also found fault with her in her writing style and words. Because of this, she was able to read in the Imperial College.

Write an impeccable essay in the provincial examination.

After filling in the missing knowledge in this area, she has no major problems in writing articles. The only shortcoming is that she is not familiar with the political affairs of the Jin Dynasty.

For example, if they can ask questions, let them discuss water conservancy issues. Zhao Ruxi has no understanding of water conservancy in Jin Dynasty, so he cannot ask targeted questions and solve them. The articles he writes are very vague.

Therefore, in the past six months, she did not need gentlemen's guidance on how to write articles, but should pay more attention to the political affairs of Jin Dynasty.

In order to reassure Mrs. Cui and Princess Sang Deok-jang, Zhao Ruxi told Mrs. Cui all these issues.

Mrs. Cui was immediately troubled.

Neither she nor Princess Shang De cared about current affairs, and could not help Zhao Ruxi at all in this regard. The gentleman who wanted to come to the Imperial College could not answer these questions for Zhao Ruxi, after all, they were not involved in government affairs.

Zhao Yuanxun was only a sixth-rank official and was not qualified to go to court, and his time as an official was still short. He could not help Zhao Ruxi in this regard. Neither could Kang Shilin.

"Your three senior brothers are all officials in the imperial court and go to court every day. They must be familiar with these things. Why don't you ask them for advice?" she suggested.

Zhao Ruxi shook his head: "This is not good."

These issues cannot be explained clearly in a short while. The three senior brothers are busy, how can they have time to explain these to her?

"I wonder if Her Royal Highness the Princess has any books or information about various aspects of the Jin Dynasty? There are also the Di Bao in recent years. If there are no books, the Di Bao is the best way to understand the situation in the Jin Dynasty."

Mrs. Cui perked up and said, "Okay, I'll talk to Her Royal Highness the Princess, and I'll also find someone to help you look for it and see if there are any books on this subject. Di Bao should be fine."

When they started running the newspaper, they even looked for several issues of the Di newspaper to study it. She knew that Princess Shangde had the Di newspaper.

Zhao Ruxi nodded and saw that nothing happened, so he stood up and left.

Two days later, the newspapers collected by Princess Shang De and Mrs. Cui had not been delivered yet, but Zhao Ruxi received a large pile of information from Wang Tong.

In addition to the top 20 articles from the past four provincial examinations and general examinations, these materials also include every issue of Di Bao in the past five years, as well as articles written by ministers when delivering memorials to the emperor.

Xiao Lingyan said in the letter that he went back and asked the people who were preparing to take part in the examination, and knew that Zhao Ruxi might need these things. He asked people to collect them and send them to him, hoping to be helpful to Zhao Ruxi.

Zhao Ruxi suddenly felt extremely warm.

It's different when you have a boyfriend. You feel like you don't have to worry about anything. He cares about you and will think of you in everything.

She wrote back and greatly praised Xiao Lingyan. She hoped that he would keep up his efforts and continue to work hard.

Next, she received some books and newspapers sent by Princess Shangde and Madam Cui.

These books include agricultural books, theories of physical studies, miscellaneous notes, and travel notes, all of which record various aspects of the Jin Dynasty and its customs and customs, and are also of certain help to Zhao Ruxi.

She was reading happily when Kang Shilin called her over.

Kang Shilin said: "Master Peng sent someone to ask, why didn't you go to the Imperial College during this period? Several gentlemen there asked about you. They asked if you didn't take part in the examination."

Zhao Ruxi felt warm again.

There are still many good people in the world.

She told Kang Shilin her concerns and plans.

Kang Shilin nodded: "You are right. They treat you wholeheartedly, so you can't ignore them."

He thought for a moment: "Well, let me tell them that they will give you a copy of the questions they give students for the exam and send it to me. You write an article based on the questions and send it to me.

I will send it to Mr. Peng for you and ask them to help you with corrections and guidance. In this way, the gentlemen can say to the outside world that it is because of my face and it is difficult to refuse; they do not specifically want to give guidance to you. In this roundabout way, it will be helpful to them.

The impact will be smaller.”

Zhao Ruxi felt grateful in her heart and stood up and bowed deeply to her master: "Thank you so much, master."

"Your three senior brothers should have a lot of books and articles on their respective yamen. I'll ask them to sort them out and send someone to give them to you."

Zhao Ruxi was overjoyed and gave another gift: "Thank you, Master."

Zhao Ruxi didn't know much about the imperial court's employment policies and practices.

Just like the official avoidance system.

During the Eastern Han Dynasty, there were "Three Mutual Laws". In "Book of the Later Han·Cai Yong Biography", there is a record that "the three mutual laws are called the marriage home and people from the two states are not allowed to serve as officials for each other." The existence of such constraints has caused some states to

County officials could not be selected in time, but to a certain extent, it was helpful to get rid of the political interference caused by the personal relationships of the administrators and promote political clarity. Most subsequent dynasties followed this principle, but the degree of leniency varied.

Was the Jin Dynasty the same as the Eastern Han Dynasty in this regard, or was it different?
