Chapter 255
The Imperial College is located in Nanwaicheng, Tongyu Street.
From the inner city, follow Yu Street and go south, exit Zhuque Gate, walk three blocks further forward, and turn left.
The Imperial College is divided into four places, namely the Tokyo Imperial College located in Bianliang, the Xijing Imperial College located in Luoyang, the Beijing Imperial College located in Daming Prefecture, and there is also a relatively special one located in Lin'an Imperial College located in the south of the Yangtze River.
Among the national universities sponsored by the Great Zhou Dynasty, Taixue was the most academy because Taixue was the only college that studied Confucian classics. In the future, the most people passed the imperial examination and passed the imperial examination, which was the highest institution for many students to enter.
To put it bluntly, it is similar to the current Central D School, and basically all those who come out are officials.
The second is the Imperial College. From a modern perspective, the Imperial College in the Great Zhou Dynasty is more like a junior college with many types of disciplines.
For example, arithmetics, paintings, calligraphy, law, martial arts, medicine, etc., everything is available.
Students who graduate here can also take the "college entrance examination", but after passing the exam, they can only serve as technical officials, and cannot become "Jinshi". The future has limited future and cannot be a high-ranking official or even enter the Political Affairs Hall.
For example, if you graduate from a medical school and pass the imperial examination, you can pass the imperial examination and pass the imperial examination. The highest achievement of students who graduate from here is to enter the Imperial Hospital, but most of them can only work as medical officials in various prefectures and counties.
Medical officials are not in the ordinary, this is the "last official" despised by Confucian students, and the lowest one is the lowest one.
The Great Zhou Dynasty was considered a dynasty with relatively open atmosphere, and all restrictions were not very dead. However, the unspoken social rules were still there. For example, people from medical families usually practice medicine and almost never give you the opportunity to study Confucianism and get the Jinshi exam.
Unless you send your name to an ordinary family as soon as you are born, and then you will take the imperial examination for the juren and Jinshi in the name of their descendants.
To put it bluntly, it is the civil service group who wants to protect its own interests and does not want more people to enter to get a share of the pie, so many conditions have been set and you are not allowed to cross-border.
This situation reached its peak later in the Ming and Qing dynasties, such as military households, medical households, tea households, fishing households, horse households, mining households, craft households, weaving households, boat households, merchants, salt households, etc.
It is equivalent to what your father does, what you do in the future, enslave you and exploit you all day long. Even if you are given the qualification to take the college entrance examination, you will not have the money or ability to go to school and take the exam.
The status is only a little better than that of clerks and prostitutes. These two types of people are definitely not allowed to participate in the imperial examination.
In ancient times, class solidification was quite serious.
It is difficult for poor families to have noble children.
Don't watch the performances in the play. A poor student doesn't even have the money to go to the capital to take the exam. Then a prostitute or a female ghost will give you a lot of money, and then the student promises to come back and marry her as a wife.
To go to Beijing to take the exam, first of all, you must be a juren.
The problem is that even if the Juren is a "literati" class, others will call you "Journalist" when they see you, and there are some people in the village who come to "dedicate" their own fertile land, which will immediately make you a big landlord, and you don't have to pay taxes.
Do you think such a juren is poor? Will he not even have the money to go to Beijing to take the exam?
When people go to Beijing to take the exam, they rely on the "admission ticket" and the "road guide" of the local government, and the officials provide free pick-up and drop-off, and free food and accommodation at the inn along the road.
Do you need funding for a brothel woman? The brothel woman still wants to be an official wife? I think too much.
Children from truly poor families can’t even afford books and don’t have the money to send their children to private schools. How do you take the “high school entrance examination” and “college entrance examination”?
The key to the ancient imperial examinations was that they had test-taking skills.
No matter how to do eight-legged essays, there are ways to do it. They are usually top secrets passed down from generation to generation by the family. Or if you become a famous teacher and a scholar, you will be charged a few thousand taels a year.
What is the scholarly school? What is the eight Jinshi in one school?
This means that whether it is knowledge, test-taking skills, and various commentary on Confucian classics, they are all learned by family members, so that their children can be nominated on the gold list and continue their family scenery.
You are a poor student, even if you are forced to go to school, but you don’t have the money to participate in “extracurricular training classes” or “college entrance examination sprint classes”. The starting point is different. How do you compete with others?
Of course, this is not absolute, it can only be said that the mainstream is like this.
In addition to class solidification, there is another thing that a small number of people "monopolize".
For example, ICBC Medical College recruits students in three years.
Those who can enter medical colleges are generally recommended by major medical families themselves, but there are quota restrictions, which is similar to those of the Han Dynasty's filial piety and honest candidates.
Do ordinary children want to go to medical school? There is no way to go.
Students entering medical colleges have age restrictions, between the ages of fifteen and twenty, of course, there is no limit on men and women. As mentioned earlier, female doctors are generally responsible for gynecology in medicine.
There are two types of candidates recommended by major medical families.
One is to have a clear goal, send the best children in the family to the Imperial College, and have the opportunity to go to the Imperial Hospital after completing their studies.
Once you become an imperial physician and your family's clinic becomes "a family of an imperial physician", the business will go up and the family's power can also expand rapidly.
But there are also special things, such as the Chen family of Jingshitang, who was afraid of the changes at home, and did not want their children to go to the Imperial Hospital at all. They just wanted to let their children come to the Imperial College Dodo Gold and get a diploma.
After completing your studies, you can go home and inherit your wealth of tens of millions.
So Chen Buer didn't have any pressure at all.
I saw him wearing an Imperial College silhouette, a black headscarf wrapped around his head, and a cage carrying him. While he was blowing, he followed Chen Shui to the Imperial College.
This dress is almost the same as Ning Caichen's dress in "A Chinese Ghost Story".
The only difference is that the shirts of Confucian students have white background and black edges, while the shirts of ICZ Medical College have white background and purple edges. The colors are different and the styles are the same.
"Young Master, please leave quickly. School starts on the first day, so we can't be late."
Facing the anxious Chen Shui, Chen Buer was also full of complaints:
"Do you think my father is sick? There are carriages and donkeys at home, but we just want to walk to the Imperial College? The Xingguo Temple Bridge has been around for about ten miles. Isn't this tormenting?"
Chen Shui didn't care: "Young Master, the master said that God will give a great responsibility to others. He must first suffer his mind and mind, exhaust his muscles and bones, starve his body, and be empty. He will do whatever he does..."
"Okay, okay, of course you have no conditions to endure hardship. If we have conditions, we will go to endure hardship on purpose. That is pretentious and perverted. Oh, I have water soles in my feet. No, let's eat a bowl of Hula soup before leaving. Master, I'll treat you."
Chen Shui looked at the sun and shook his head firmly: "Young Master, go, I will complain to the second Master if you do this."
