Why did Xiaoyegong fail in Know No? What was the imperial examination system in Song Dynasty?

Leaflet Guild fell off the list for two reasons. First, Ouyang Xiu's reform; Second, suppress the policy. The imperial examination in Song Dynasty was held every three years. Formally, it was a two-level examination system at first, and then it was reformed one after another. The content basically follows the content of the imperial examination in the Tang Dynasty. The reform section is as follows.

Ouyang xiu's reform

At that time, Ouyang Xiu advocated the imperial examination reform in the Song Dynasty and the simple style of writing. He hoped that the articles written by candidates would be practical, not full of flowery rhetoric, which seemed to be brilliant in literary talent, but in fact there was no dry goods at all. From the analysis of the play, it can be seen that the small article at that time should be an appreciative article after all, with gorgeous content and lack of bones and muscles, so it is reasonable to see him fail in the list.

Changes in the imperial examination system

There are two main points, one is to prevent cheating in the examination room, and the other is to prevent cheating in marking papers. These two points are mainly to improve the examination form, hoping that the court can recruit more useful talents instead of some relatives. It is precisely because of these institutional changes that the Song Dynasty was the dynasty with the largest number of top scholars in China's history. According to statistics, the number of students on the list at that time was more than twice that of bureaucratic children.

Restrictive policy

This is also a major feature of the imperial examination in the Song Dynasty. Because of the experience of the demise of the former dynasty, the emperor of the Song Dynasty consciously avoided bureaucratic children from entering the dynasty to be officials. Therefore, it is expressly stipulated that all officials' children must re-register and re-take the exam. The implication is that I don't want too many bureaucrats' children to take the exam, and I hope more children from poor families will take the exam, so this is actually one of the reasons why my little grandfather can't take the exam, not only because there are many opponents, but also because the papers are difficult to correct.
