Li Pan

As early as the Sui and Tang Dynasties in China, the imperial court initiated the imperial examination system in order to select talents from all over the world. The imperial examination system was extended to the Qing Dynasty until the end of the last imperial examination, which has experienced a history of more than 1,3 years, among which countless outstanding talents were selected.

Many well-known celebrities entered the official career through the imperial examination, such as Guo Ziyi, Wang Wei, Wen Tianxiang and others, who all won the top spot in high school in the imperial examination.

The imperial examination is different from our modern examination. The imperial examination has a special examination room. As long as you enter the examination, you can't come out for several days, and the examination time is very long. Many candidates will prepare dry food before the examination to avoid going hungry inside. However, candidates usually start the exam after they have eaten enough outside the examination room, but there is one person who is different. He took a bag of steamed bread and answered questions while eating, but the emperor took a fancy to it. ?

is he famous in the Qing dynasty? Shantou champion? Li pan

Li Pan was born in a poetic family in Xuzhou, Jiangsu Province. Influenced by his family, Li Pan was very interested in reading since he was a child. In addition, Li Pan was very intelligent. He was familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics at an early age and became a local famous? Little prodigy? .

But Li Pan is a little different from ordinary people, that is, his thinking is too slow. Often, others have finished two or three things, but he hasn't finished one yet. However, Li Pan has a good knowledge of literature, and the sentences he writes are often golden sentences.

as for why he took a bag of steamed bread to take the imperial examination, we should start with his family environment.

although Li pan was born in a scholarly family, his family was not very good. in those days, Li pan decided to go to Beijing to take the exam, but there was no travelling expenses. his mother managed to save enough money for her trip to Beijing, but there was no extra food. There is no way, Li Pan's mother specially steamed two drawers of steamed bread and a whole sack before Li Pan left, so that Li Pan could carry it to Beijing to catch the exam.

The key point is that Li Pan has a particularly good appetite and eats a lot. Before Li Pan carried this bag of steamed bread to Beijing, he had already wiped out half of it. Finally, when he arrived in Beijing, Li Pan, after signing up for the imperial examination, worried that he would starve during the examination, brought his own steamed bread into the examination room. After all, the court did not stipulate that food could not be brought into the examination room.

After that, a classic scene appeared, in which Li Pan was eating steamed bread while answering questions. This situation was witnessed by many candidates, and finally reached the ears of Emperor Kangxi at that time.

However, because of Li Pan's slow temper, he didn't finish the examination paper in the specified time, but the teacher in the examination room gave him a break and asked him to finish the examination paper in the examination room before handing it in. In this way, Li Pan didn't finish the paper until the next day and submitted it. However, when the marking teacher saw Li Pan's test paper, he was shocked by the intelligence of the candidate who was eating steamed bread and answering questions.

This paper was quickly presented to Kangxi, who had already heard about Li Pan's deeds. After taking the paper, he scanned it carefully and found that Li Pan had extraordinary knowledge and unique military views. Then it was announced that Li Pan had become the champion of this year.

when Kangxi announced this, he did not mention how good Li Pan's literary talent was, but said:? It's rare that this poor scholar has the heart to serve the country, and this year's champion is him. ? In fact, Kangxi wanted to use this to inspire the scholars in the world to study hard and serve the country. Who knows that this made Jiang Chenying, a contemporary flower explorer with Li Pan, very depressed. He thought that Li Pan became the number one scholar by relying on a bag of steamed bread, and once wrote poems mocking Li Pan. Look at Pengcheng County, whose name is AG Tuke. The appearance is crimson, and the knife and pencil are like Xiao He. There are still children under the tree, and the insects have changed. Generally difficult to learn, thirty-six treasures. ?
