Tang Bohu cheated in the scientific examination

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 second was the " Essay ", which was similar to the essay questions. It mainly tested the writing level of poems, Fu, and other subjects. 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. The specific test was up to the examinee. -  " Ming Law ": It mainly examined the knowledge of law and selected judicial talents. The exam was divided into two parts: seven laws and three decrees. The first part was to examine the familiarity of laws and decrees. While waiting for the TV series, you can also click on the link below to read the classic original work of "Dafeng Nightwatchman"!

The details of Tang Bohu's cheating case are as follows: Tang Bohu and his good friend Xu Jing went to the capital to participate in the exam. After they arrived in the capital, they followed the tradition of the time to pay their respects to the officials and celebrities and make friends with the literary world. They were introduced by Liang Chu, the chief examiner of the provincial examination, to Li Dongyang, the Minister of Rites and the Grand Scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion, and Cheng Minzheng, the Right Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Rites and the Hanlin Scholar. Cheng Minzheng appreciated Tang Bohu's talent and took great care of their visits. Tang and Xu often went in and out of his mansion to ask questions and acted casually and frivolously. Xu Jing also let his entourage bring generous gifts every time he visited. Soon, rumors about the two people spread. On the sixth day of February in the 12th year of Hongzhi (1499), Li Dongyang and Cheng Minzheng were appointed as the examiners. Later, it was Huke who reported Tang Bohu's fraud in the examination room. In fact, the people involved in this fraud case might be very innocent. In short, Tang Bohu also suffered bad luck because of this. His fate went from the original smug to the bottom.

Tang Bohu could not take the imperial examination because he was involved in the fraud case. Tang Bohu and his good friend Xu Jing visited Cheng Minzheng (who later became the chief examiner of the subject) before entering the capital to participate in the general examination. They compared notes with each other on possible questions. Although no one took it seriously at the time, Xu Jing had told these questions to other examinees, and the questions Cheng Minzheng had set in the general exam coincidentally coincided with what he had said before, so he was suspected of buying the questions from Cheng Minzheng. In the end, Tang Bohu was deprived of his fame and was not allowed to participate in the imperial examination for the rest of his life. Although most of the later generations believed that Tang Bohu did not bribe Cheng Minzheng, he was still judged to have committed fraud and suffered this punishment.

In the 12th year of Hongzhi, Tang Bohu and his good friend Xu Jing entered the capital to participate in the examination. Xu Jing was born in a rich family. On his way to the capital, he talked with Tang Bohu about classics and papers and discussed his studies. After arriving in the capital, the other students were preparing for their exams in peace, but the two of them were active everywhere, visiting officials and scholars, including Li Dongyang, the Minister of Rites who later served as the chief examiner, and Cheng Minzheng, the scholar of the Imperial Academy. In February's exam, the chief examiner Cheng Minzheng's questions were unfamiliar and obscure. Many students could not write, but Tang Bohu's pen was full of flowers and his results were excellent. He seemed to be the best choice for the top scholar. Because the two of them had been running around before the exam, and their results were exceptionally good after the results were released, rumors spread among the students in the city in an instant. It was widely rumored that Xu Jing had used a large sum of money to buy the exam questions, and the examiner, Cheng Minzheng, had sold the exam questions. Huachang impeached Cheng Minzheng for selling the title to profit, implicating Xu Jing and Tang Bohu. In fact, Xu Jing did bribe the examiner's butler to get the questions in advance, but Tang Bohu did not know. In the end, the examiner was dismissed from office, Xu Jing was demoted to prison, and Tang Bohu was implicated and deposed as an official. He was forbidden to take the examination again and become an official. His fate was completely changed.
