Tang Dynasty Jinshi examination content
In the Tang Dynasty, after Emperor Gaozong of Tang Dynasty, there were three imperial examinations. The first round was poetry, which was to write poems and Fu; the second round was to paste scriptures, which was similar to filling in the blanks; and the third round was to ask questions. The examination was an elimination system. Only those who passed the first round could enter the second round, and only those who passed the second round could enter the third round. Those who passed all three rounds were called Jinshi. In addition, the content of the exam required the candidates not only to be familiar with the scriptures, but also to be proficient in poetry, familiar with the laws and systems of the Tang Dynasty, concerned about current affairs, and have a deep understanding of Confucian classics. Among them, the writing ability of poetry and Fu was the most important part of the imperial court.

In the Tang Dynasty, the contents of different subjects were different: - ** Elementary Scholar Section **: Mainly to examine the country's major policies and policies. It is recorded in the Six Classics of the Tang Dynasty that 'the Elementary Scholar will be tested on five strategies and strategies'. However, this subject was extremely difficult to take, and the number of applicants decreased. It was finally abolished during the reign of Emperor Gaozong of Tang Dynasty. - ** Jinshi **: This was the most important subject in the Tang Dynasty. There were three main parts to the test. The first was the " Tie Jing ", which was similar to the modern dictation and fill-in-the-blank questions. It mainly tested the familiarity of the classics.

The third was the " Ce Wen ", which was usually five questions of current affairs. It tested the understanding of national policies and the countermeasures of current political affairs. - ** Ming Jing Ke **: Mainly tests Confucianism and Taoism. In the Tang Dynasty, the scriptures were divided into orthodox and miscellaneous scriptures. There were nine orthodox scriptures, which were divided into three levels according to their importance and difficulty. Among them, the Book of Rites and Zuo's Spring and Autumn Annals were the major scriptures, Mao Shi, Zhou Li and Yi Li were the middle classics, and Zhouyi, Shang Shu, Gongyang Spring and Autumn Annals and Guliang Spring and Autumn Annals were the minor scriptures. Other than the nine orthodox scriptures, he would occasionally test the Book of Filial Piety, the Analects of Confucius, Lao Tzu, and other miscellaneous scriptures. The difference between the Ming Jing section and the normal examination was that the Ming Jing section was similar to a test. The first test was a post. The second test was a test of righteousness. The examiner would set the questions and the examinee would answer them verbally to test the level of understanding of the scriptures. There were usually ten questions. The third test was a policy discussion. There were usually three questions, which tested the ability to integrate theory with practice. Moreover, the Ming Jing subject was divided into five classics, three classics, two classics, and one scholarly class. For example, those who knew two classics must have one major and one minor classics or two middle classics; Those who knew three classics must have one major, one medium, and one minor classics; Those who knew five classics must know both major and minor classics.

Tang Dynasty imperial examination system
The imperial examination system of the Tang Dynasty was mainly divided into the nine-grade system and the imperial examination system. Under the nine-grade system, officials were divided into nine grades, each grade was divided into two grades, and above the genuine grade, there were three grades. There was a specific selection procedure for officials. Each rank had a specific examination content. Officials had to pass the examination to be promoted. Taichang Temple, the Imperial College, the Imperial College, and other institutions participated in the examination, evaluation, and selection of officials. The ranks and positions of officials were evaluated according to their moral character, knowledge, and ability. The imperial examination system was even more important. Its core was the imperial examination, with examination subjects such as Ming classics, Ming law, Ming history, etc. The content of the Ming Jing examination mainly involved classics such as the Four Books and Five Classics; the Ming law examined legal knowledge and laws; the Ming history involved the history and figures of the Tang Dynasty. These subjects were mainly used for universal education and the selection of low-level officials. The difficulty of the examination and the number of participants varied. The Jinshi examination was the most important examination subject. It was held once every three years and hosted by the Ministry of Personnel. The number of people taking the examination was generally around 2,000. The examination content mainly included classics, historical biography, policy theory, etc. It was divided into three stages: the palace examination, the general examination, and the Ministry of Rites examination. The examination time was as long as half a year. In the palace examination, candidates had to answer questions in front of the emperor; the general examination was held in the provincial capital to test the meaning of classics and historical biography; the Ministry of Rites examination was held in the capital to test the knowledge of strategy and etiquette. The candidates who passed the Ministry of Rites examination could become Jinshi and be awarded official positions. However, there were some problems in the imperial examination of the Tang Dynasty, such as the existence of the general list, the circulation of papers, etc., which lacked basic fairness, providing opportunities for related households to exploit loopholes.

Tang Dynasty imperial examination taboo
In the Tang Dynasty, the rules of taboo in the imperial examination were stricter. If a candidate encountered a name related to an elder during the examination, they could only withdraw from the examination according to the regulations to show their filial piety to the elder. For example, the famous poet Li He, whose father was named Li Jinsu, had the same pronunciation as Jinshi. Although Li He was talented and full of confidence in the Jinshi examination, he was deprived of the qualification to participate in the Jinshi examination because of the taboo system. At that time, the law of the Tang Dynasty had a clear regulation on taboo, such as "If you write a letter to report something and accidentally violate the name of the ancestral temple, you will be beaten with eighty sticks." Those who make mistakes in speech and other documents shall be flogged fifty times. Those who violate the name shall be sentenced to three years in prison. If the suspect name and two partial offenders, do not sit ", where" suspect name "refers to the same pronunciation or similar words. Although Han Yu defended Li He and wrote "Taboo Defense," the Ministry of Rites still determined that Li He could not participate in the Jinshi examination, which showed that the taboo system in the imperial examination of the Tang Dynasty was strictly enforced.

The Malpractices of the Imperial Examination System in the Tang Dynasty
The Tang Dynasty imperial examination system had the following drawbacks: 1. ** Fairness in the examination ** - ** The shortcomings of the name sealing method and the copying system **: The name sealing method did not appear in the early Tang Dynasty. Although Wu Zetian used it in the highest-level court examination, it was not used in the provincial examination, and it was not always implemented. Even if the method was used, the examiners could easily distinguish the examination papers of their students and relatives through their handwriting. The Tang Dynasty did not adopt the transcribing system, which led to the emergence of fraud in the imperial examination. - ** The Ministry of Civil Affairs recruitment standard is vague **: After the Jinshi examination, one needs to go through the Ministry of Civil Affairs recruitment. The examination standard of "body, speech, calligraphy, judgment" is very vague. There is no clear regulation of what standards can be met to pass, which brings convenience to the examiner's favoritism. 2. ** The influence of the aristocratic families ** - ** The loophole of the examination paper and the public recommendation system **: In the Tang Dynasty, there was the act of "examination paper". The candidates would edit their articles and poems into a volume and present it to the celebrities, requesting to recommend themselves to the examiner. Many people who got to know the examiner through the "examination paper" and passed the Jinshi examination were small rats. In addition, there was also the "public recommendation" system. If the public officials liked scholars, they could recommend them to the chief examiner. The recommended scholars had a high possibility of passing the examination. These provided a way for the powerful families to influence the results of the imperial examination, which was not conducive to the children of the poor families. - ** The influence of the ranking system **: Before the imperial examination examiners decide on the examination results, they will invite famous people to jointly decide on the admission list based on the candidates 'results, social status, and reputation. The children of noble families usually make friends with dignitaries and have a good reputation. Compared to the children of poor families, they have a clear advantage. The chief examiner would also present the results to the prime minister, who could decide the final list of candidates. This also provided an opportunity for the powerful families to influence the results of the imperial examination. 3. ** Talent employment and officialdom issues ** - ** The problem of officialdom caused by a single employment channel **: A large number of scholars were selected through the imperial examination, but the government provided them with limited employment opportunities. By the time of Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty, cultural and educational causes were not valued. After Wu Zetian became emperor, he interrupted the cultural and educational causes independent of officialdom. The only employment channel for scholars was to enter officialdom. However, the ability of the officialdom to accept employment was weak. Wu Zetian set up another organization to cultivate power. The overlapping of institutions and the increase of redundant personnel led to low efficiency, factional struggles, and corruption in the officialdom. Moreover, the salaries of officials continued to increase, and the people could not bear the burden.

Remarks on the imperial examination system of the Tang Dynasty
The imperial examination system of Tang Dynasty can be commented from two aspects: positive and negative. Positive aspects: - Talent Selection: Breaking the tradition of determining the appointment of officials based on family background and wealth, selecting talents in a fair manner. Talented and learned people could enter the ranks of officials through the imperial examination and contribute to the country and society. This kind of fairness encouraged people to study hard and be proactive, improved social vitality and creativity, ensured the quality and ability of the government and officials, and increased social mobility and fairness. - ** Cultural Prosperity **: It promoted the spread of knowledge and the development of education. In order to cope with the imperial examination, examinees needed to be proficient in classic works and widely dabble in various fields of knowledge. Active learning became a social ethos. This promoted the rise and development of educational institutions, improved social cultural attainments and knowledge levels, and promoted the prosperity of literature, history, philosophy, and other fields. Many outstanding scholars and scholars stood out. - ** Society is stable **: Under the public recommendation system, the government can select outstanding talents to hold important positions, and outstanding candidates can obtain fair competition opportunities to display their talents. The public recommendation system expanded the scope of talent selection, was conducive to social progress and development, alleviated class contradictions, promoted cultural prosperity, and could also maintain social stability and ruling effectiveness. Negative effects: The imperial examination paid too much attention to book knowledge and did not examine practical ability and talent. It might lead to the neglect of some talents who had practical ability but did not receive good education. In addition, the public recommendation system required officials to recommend, which could easily lead to corruption and injustice. Although the scope of selection was expanded, there was still a certain threshold, which limited the development and progress of some talents. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
