When Gan Qi just learned about the exam questions, he was a little too excited. After arriving at the Su family, Gan Qi calmed down and did not rush to talk about the test questions.

Instead, I first looked at the book written by Su Che, and I had written more than 10,000 words. It can be seen that Su Che really took this matter seriously.

The writing is also very satisfying to Gan Qi. Those with literary talent are different. They are carefully selected by wording and sentences and verbal dialogue. Moreover, they are not too arrogant. The dialogue is full of life and is appreciated by both the elite and the masses. This is what it means.

Gan Qi, who had read the manuscript of the story, also started to think about it at this time.

The imperial examination was an extremely important matter in ancient times, and sometimes it was even the most important state affairs of the entire dynasty. Therefore, the punishment for cheating in the imperial examination was also the most severe.

The imperial examination fraud is serious, and the family is killed. From ancient times to the present, there are not only one or two people who have been beheaded because of the imperial examination cheating, but there are many officials. The lightest and lightest participant is indispensable.

Then the question comes. Gan Qi knew the test questions. If they were leaked at will, it would be a serious matter. If they were not done properly, they would be put on a fraudulent title, and it is very likely that the head would be put on the ground.

After thinking for a while, Gan Qi said, "Su Che, have you had any questions recently?"

The matter of betting questions is very popular even in later generations. Not to mention the imperial examination era, when betting questions before the exam, you naturally have to prepare for the questions. If you bet, you will win the jackpot.

Su Che shook his head and replied, "It's the same thing as the meaning of the Postscript and Mo Yi or not. You can take whatever you want. As for strategy, I don't know where to take it. Let him go. That's the same thing, you can take what you want."

Su Che's words are really confident. He also has the strength of confidence. Although Su Che is not very high in ranking, it seems that it is not difficult for him to become a Jinshi.

But there is also a problem, that is, the career path. In comparison, the ranking of the imperial examinations has a significant impact on the development of the career path. For example, Su Shi, the second-placed career, was much smoother than Su Che in his early career. If Su Shi had not been involved in the dispute over reform, it would have been no problem to occupy a position in the prime minister's seat.

Although it is also related to life experiences and personal personality, it is obviously also affected by the imperial examination rankings.

Therefore, Gan Qi also hopes that Su Zhe can get a good ranking. Gan Qi also knows that Su Zhe and Su Shi will have been with each other in their political career in the next decades. Su Shi was convicted of the Wutai poetry case, and Su Zhe even requested to use his official position to atone for his brothers. Because of the party dispute, the two brothers, one was demoted to Huazhou (Guangdong) and the other was demoted to Qiongzhou (Hainan).

Since ancient times, there have been many stories of father-son fighting and brothers fighting each other, which makes the stories of Su Shi and Su Che brothers seem particularly precious and share the same kind of woe for the rest of their lives.

Gan Qi also looked at Su Shi, who was reading not far away, and asked, "Does Zizhan have any questions?"

Su Shi smiled and shook his head and said, "What question is taken? My brother is right and you can get whatever you want."

Gan Qi nodded and replied, "Well, a friend of mine has taken a few questions. I will send them to you when the time comes. If it is useful, it will be useless."

Gan Qi had no choice but to do this. He could not say in front of the two brothers that he knew the test questions. This year's test questions were quite difficult.

The punishment and reward of loyalty comes from the Shangshu·Dayumo. The original text is: punishment and suspicion are light, reward and suspicion follow the crowd, and loyalty is the ultimate.

It means that if there are doubts in many places in a case, it must be handled lightly. If there are doubts in many places in a case, it needs to expand the scope of rewards.

The first sentence is quite a bit of the suspicion of being innocent in later generations, while the second sentence means fairness and justice, and group efforts are greater than individual efforts.

This kind of question is to express personal opinions. The more such a question is, the harder it is to answer it well. It is almost impossible to hit this question. In the Song Dynasty, policy theory was actually more pragmatic and asked specific questions, such as military war issues, people's livelihood issues, reform issues, etc. For example, this question presided over by Ouyang Xiu is more like a philosophical logic issue.

"Okay, thank you Brother Gan." Su Che thanked her, but in fact she didn't take it seriously.

Gan Qi cannot be too straightforward, and he can only put some effort into the questions sent. For example, choose a few meaningless questions and add "punishment and loyalty" to make "punishment and loyalty" stand out among many questions, and make Su Che a deeper impression on this question. As long as Su Che thinks about this question a little more, it will be of great help during the exam.

When he returned home, Wu Chengwo was already waiting, and he found more than a dozen test questions that had been tested in previous years.

Gan Qi waved his hand: "Write!"

Wu Chengwo gave a great gift and picked up his pen to write.

Gan Qi sat aside and continued reading. From time to time, he disturbed Wu Chengwo who was taking the exam and asked some middle school questions.

Wu Chengwo was not bothered, and while writing an article, he answered Gan Qi.

More than an hour later, Wu Chengwo finished writing an article and gave it to Gan Qi.

Gan Qi looked at it seriously, and it was not difficult to understand it. But Gan Qi frowned and said, "What are you writing? I spent all my thoughts on the words and sentences, and I was empty and I had no insights."

Upon hearing this, Wu Chengwo hurriedly bowed: "Sir, please teach me."

Gan Qi really had a bit of a teacher and said, "I'm talking about military affairs here. You're talking about a lot of things, but it just didn't hit the nail on the head."

"I don't know what's the point?" Wu Chengwo asked.

"What is the key? You have to dare to say that you are not asking you to praise me. You must be astonishing as you don't say it, so that you can stand out. Think about it, why has the military expenditure increased year by year until the Song Dynasty, and the military expenditure of more than 50 million yuan a year? But as a whole, the combat effectiveness of the imperial guards is not as good as the founding of the country?" Gan Qi asked.

Wu Chengwo widened his eyes and asked, "Is the imperial court's annual military expenditure more than 50 million chunks?"

Gan Qi looked at Wu Chengwo and couldn't believe it. As the saying goes, scholars can understand the world if they don't go out. But Wu Chengwo, a scholar, doesn't even know how much military expenditure the imperial court spends a year?

Sometimes, this is what it is about seeing and seeing. In this era, information acquisition channels are simple, and information dissemination channels are simpler. It is almost impossible for an ordinary scholar to fully understand all the big and small things of the court, because there are not so many channels to learn about.

Gan Qi shook his head and said, "Do you know how much the imperial court earns in a year and how much military expenditure is?"

Wu Chengwo shook his head and looked embarrassed: "I feel ashamed if the students don't know."

"Then you can do something nonsense." Gan Qi blurted out, no wonder this scholar who knows all the sages will fail the test many times.

Wu Chengwo quickly bowed and said, "Sir, forgive me for your crime."

Gan Qi waved his hand and said, "In recent years, the average annual income of the imperial court has been around 60 million guan, but military expenditure has reached 50 million guan. There have been not many wars in recent years. Why is this?"

Wu Chengwo asked blankly: "I dare to ask why sir?"

Gan Qi was so angry that he raised his hand and wanted to hit someone, but he could only endure it and said, "I'll ask you why, and you're asking me."

"Student is ashamed!" Wu Chengwo bowed again.

"Don't worship!" Gan Qi could only ask and answer: "The key is to have a redundant word, do you understand?"

Redundant, redundant, huge means that the army has too many redundant soldiers, bloated institutions, and too many useless soldiers.

"Students understand." Wu Chengwo replied.

Gan Qi nodded, feeling a little bit like a child who can teach, and asked again: "Do you know how to answer this question?"

Wu Chengwo shook his head blankly: "The student doesn't know, please ask the teacher for his advice."

Gan Qi took a deep breath: "The son is not taught, and he has said redundantly, so you can talk about redundantly. How to eliminate redundant soldiers? Do you think of a way?"

Wu Chengwo thought about it seriously and then said, "The student is stupid, please teach me."

"Oh...ah...ah...well...you, reform, do you understand? The redundant soldiers are reformed, the first is to change the method of recruiting soldiers, the second is to change the method of selection and allocation, the third is to change the yamen organization, the fourth is to clean up the list, the fifth is to classify the army, distinguish between strength and weakness, and the sixth is to reassess the officers..."

"The student is stupid, please tell me the specificity of the reform."

Gan Qi stood up and said, "Come on, give me the pen, I will answer the questions for you."

Gan Qi said something angry, but unexpectedly, Wu Chengwo took it seriously and handed the pen up: "Sir, please."

Gan Qi looked at the pen handed in front of him, and looked at it motionless for a long time. He looked up at Wu Chengwo, and asked weakly: "Do you have a little brain..."

"Students are dull, students are ashamed, please!"
