It is said that "everything is inferior only reading is high", whether it is modern society or ancient feudal society, many people believe that only reading is the best way out for a person. In ancient times, in order to recruit the Wise Men and in order to allow more han disciples to study, the imperial court relied on its own efforts to enter the career path, and created the imperial examination system, so that many cold students entered the career path, and the imperial examination also became an important way for many people to become officials and get rich.
Since the Sui Dynasty began to implement the imperial examination system, all students have taken the examination of the title and the meritorious name as the first step in embarking on the career path. At that time, there was a saying called "ten years of cold window no one asked, in one fell swoop to become famous in the world knows", in order to get the name of this title, how many people cold window hard to read for decades, so this leader is a talent of one in a hundred. And this is not good, tens of thousands of candidates across the country, in the end only take one person, this competitiveness can be imagined. The results of this title are not only good, but also the requirements for words are also very high. We all know that many students in Hengshui No. 1 Middle School in Hebei Province have the same font as the printed body, and today we will also talk about a test paper with a font like a printed body, which is still a relic of a champion.
The owner of this examination paper is Zhao Bingzhong during the Ming Dynasty's Wanli Dynasty, this person from a young age is clever and clever, diligent and inquisitive, 24 years old in the examination, 25 years old to participate in the palace examination, in one fell swoop won the first place in the high school title, and finally the official to the official Shangshu, after his death was posthumously given to the prince Taibao, today's test paper is Zhao Bingzhong's descendant, the 13th generation of Mr. Zhao Huanbin donated to the country in 1983, is a national first-class cultural relics. This national first-class cultural relic, on which there was also the seal stamped by the hands of the Wanli Emperor at that time, the entire article on the examination paper totaled 2460 words, all of which were written in small letters of standard one centimeter square, which was pleasing to the eye, and the article also made a due analysis of the actual affairs of the Ming Dynasty at that time, which showed the depth of his yuanlang skills.
Zhao Bingzhong's volume consists of 19 folds of albums, with a length of 268 centimeters, each fold is 47.6 centimeters high and 14.1 centimeters wide. The six characters of the "First Rank of the First Rank" in the Top Heavenly Zhu Book at the beginning of the volume were the long seal of the "Mifeng Guanfang" under the imperial book of the Ming Shen Sect of the Wanli Tianzi at that time, accounting for a fold. Below is a note, a total of 15 folds, each fold of 6 lines, all 1 cm see the square worker to the small letter, a total of 2460 words. The first three folds are about the position and name of the reading officer at the time. This well-preserved authentic manuscript is now in the Qingzhou Museum in Shandong. As can be seen from the photos, the whole test paper has no faults or alterations, and its handwriting is comparable to today's printing body, but it has more vitality, little by little, and all reflect the in-depth skills. Under the pressure of the highest science field, you can also write Yunyun fonts, which has already killed many so-called "calligraphers"!
In addition, Zhao Bingzhong also put forward ten suggestions for the emperor to govern the country, including the use of strict standards and methods to select and evaluate officials, strengthen the education and management of officials, increase the punishment of corrupt officials, and attach importance to regulations with clear rewards and punishments. These contents written on Zhao Bingzhong's answer sheet made the Wanli Emperor who was conducting the temple examination at that time shine, and he became the leader of the year. This temple examination paper has also been preserved in its entirety. Until 1983, although it was nearly 400 years before Zhao Bingzhong won the title in 1598, his temple examination paper was still found in his hometown of Zhengmu Village, becoming the only Ming Dynasty title answer sheet preserved to this day.
