In the ancient imperial examination, why didn't the person who won the first prize be as happy as the person who found flowers in the examination?

As far as I know, those who didn't win the first prize in the exam are very happy, because these flowers are considered beautiful by the emperor, so court ministers will give priority to them when choosing husbands for their daughters.

The college entrance examination is very difficult now. The most crucial three years are three years of high school. Even if you get good grades on weekdays, it's no use not typing the final exam. Only by taking the exam can you prove your strength, and those who pass the exam will be ecstatic. However, compared with the ancient imperial examination, this kind of pressure is simply childish and incomparable. Now many people take the college entrance examination every year. The imperial examination at that time was to gain the upper hand in the upper class. Give an example that everyone is familiar with. Everyone has heard the old story of Jin Fan, and he was not recognized until after Half Life. But he was ecstatic, and people went crazy. This is also a kind of irony. I didn't pass the exam for most of my life, and I was crazy when I passed the exam. This is enough to show how difficult the imperial examination was at that time.

The imperial examination system originated in the Sui Dynasty and was mainly used to select talents. This also gives civilians a chance. It is difficult for government officials to be excluded. As long as you are willing to work hard, there is still a place. Study hard, and there will be a golden house. Once you pass the exam, you can stand out from an imperial examination class, from an imperial examination class, and from an imperial examination class. Therefore, many scholars in ancient times regarded this as the goal of getting rid of the poor class and trying to get rid of the ocean of suffering. As long as you are admitted to the number one scholar, you don't have to worry about the future. However, in ancient times, if a person passed the exam, he would be happier than the person who won the first place. But maybe that's why you don't believe it?

Some people may pass the imperial examination once, while others may experience the pain of lifelong participation. In the examination room, you can even see candidates with pale temples. This is big news now, but it was common at that time. Meng Jiao, for example, was very happy after she entered the Jinshi in the senior high school entrance examination. He wrote a poem to express his feelings. He rode very fast and saw all the flowers in the city in one day. Although the lyrics are exaggerated, the emotions are not blown out. After all, he is 46 years old at this time. It's not easy to pass the epigraphy exam at such a young age. But fortunately, they didn't give up. This is also the spiritual benefit brought by the imperial examination, which makes it difficult for people to admit their life. This is just an exam. There is no rule that you can't take the imperial examination when you are old. What the emperor wants is talent. No matter how old you are, as long as you have the real thing, you will never refuse. Like Zeng Guofan's father, he was just a scholar at the age of 43. As you can see, there are many senior candidates.

In fact, there are not many ancient scholars, and some experts have done statistics specially. At that time, 90% people were illiterate and could not read a few words. Most of the remaining 10% do not meet any cultural standards. However, although these scholars are few in number, they are very diligent and persistent. The ancient imperial examination system was also divided into four levels: first examiner, then Jinshi, then Gong Shi, and finally Jinshi. After joining the government, you don't have to pay taxes to the court. Moreover, there is no need to pay military expenses. But the salary is very low, only a little. After the exam, it is equivalent to having an official certificate and becoming an official, which is a big step forward than the scholar. After winning the Jinshi, it means that you have completed the highest level of education. You are already the most advanced talent. At this time, your examiner became the emperor now and accepted the imperial examination.

If you get good grades in the palace exam and get the first good grade, congratulations, this title is yours. The weaker one will win the first prize and finally become a flower-exploring seat. These three titles are the honorary titles of the top three. In terms of treatment, of course, it is the best champion and the first in the country! This honor is very high. The person who can get this honor can be said to have buried his ancestral grave well. Of course, this is a joke. However, many people are in a better mood after the exam than the first one. Because this is not only about being talented and knowledgeable, but also about looking, in other words, you must be a good-looking person to become a Tang Dynasty. This is equivalent to the appearance of the court, brilliant. However, the champion is only a genius, so the real winner is to explore flowers.

The emperor thinks this kind of flower is beautiful. Therefore, the court will give priority to choosing a husband for her daughter. So from this perspective, this flower exploration is the real winner, and there is glory and a lot of happiness in this respect. For example, he was born to make love. Not only because of his knowledge, but also because of his beauty, he is particularly favored and valued. He always has his company. As for the image of some plays, it is far from the truth. Since it is a movie and TV series, it can be taken seriously. True harmony is very appreciated by the emperor. Both talented and beautiful. Even the emperor likes it. Which woman doesn't like it? So, the location of the flowers is really comfortable. Even the emperor is preaching his own beauty, which is the most useful.

That's why people nowadays don't value appearance. In fact, in ancient times, it was very important for beauty. I'm just used to it now But fortunately, even if you are ugly now, as long as you work hard, it will be day by day. Even if you can't be a smart school bully, you can be a smart school bully. Now you should know the mood of the ancients trying to spend flowers, right? That kind of mood is really better than the first place in the exam, and it is simply a winner in life. Even the emperor praised you for your beauty. This honor is really hard to get.
