How did ancient scholars test their fame?
If ancient scholars want to become famous, they must go through a cold window for ten years and take exams organized by governments at all levels. They are:
County exam-government exam-academy exam-township exam-general exam-palace exam.
The second level of the county is the initial test, and those who pass the initial test are called Tongsheng. Can enter the imperial examination.
* * * Level 4: College Entrance Examination-Rural Examination-General Examination-Palace Examination Level 4.
(1) After the college entrance examination, it is called "Bunsen", that is, scholar.
(2) A scholar takes the provincial examination, and those who pass are called juren.
(3) The examination place is Beijing, and it is called "Gong's" after the examination.
(4) Gong Shi can take the court exam, and if he is admitted, he will be called Jinshi.
Palace examination is divided into three classes: the first class is awarded to Jinshi, and the second class is awarded to palace examination, champion, runner-up and Sanhuatan.
Imperial examination:
Imperial examination was an important means to select talents and officials in ancient China. It began in the Sui Dynasty, matured in the Tang Dynasty and remained in use until the demise of the Qing Dynasty. It is the earliest "College Entrance Examination" in China.
First, the county exam, the government exam.
The county examination and the government examination calculate the primary election, which is equivalent to the county and city examination, and the election is twice. As long as you are a scholar, regardless of age, you can participate.
It's passed. It's called Tongsheng.
Basically equivalent to high and low levels.
With the qualification of boys, you can move on on the road to fame and enter the next round of exams.
Second, the hospital inspection
Both boys and girls can take the junior college exams hosted by the provincial government and the prefect.
After passing the college entrance examination, they are called students, that is, scholars. The loser is still a child.
Many people think that the level of scholars is very general, and the image of scholars in film and television dramas is often a symbol of poverty and pedantry. But in fact, people who can become scholars are already absolute intellectuals of that era, so there is a saying that "scholars don't go out and know what's going on in the world."
