He is proficient in classics and history and is good at writing poems. At that time, he called his martial arts, poetry and calligraphy "three unique skills". What is particularly commendable is that he is honest and clean, does not flatter powerful people, and is quite a gentleman.
During the Shunzhi period of the Qing Dynasty, Zhejiang native Wang Yubi was even an academician of the Chinese Academy of Military Sciences. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, this man was admitted to Wu Xiucai. He was the first archer and was known as the "dead shot", so people praised him as "Wu Siyuan".

Extended data:
The imperial examination sprouted in the Southern and Northern Dynasties and really took shape in the Tang Dynasty. With the decline of the gentry and the rise of the civilian landlords, the "Nine-grade Zheng Zhi System" which has paid attention to family status since Wei and Jin Dynasties has been unable to continue. After Emperor Wendi acceded to the throne, the system of Zheng Zhi with Nine Grades was abolished. According to historical records, in the first month of Huang Kai's third year, Emperor Wendi of Sui Dynasty wrote a letter to "Xian Liang". It should be the seventh year of the reign of Emperor Chengzu in the Ming Dynasty (587), and Beijing officials were given five grades or more, and the general manager and secretariat were matched with two imperial examination officials, namely, "ambition, honesty, diligence" and "fairness and diligence".
In April of the third year of Yang Di's great cause, imperial edicts were issued to civil and military officials who had positions, which could be "filial piety and erudition", "integrity and honesty", "integrity", "perseverance", "outstanding knowledge", "beautiful literary talent" and "arrogance and strength". Scholars in the second division, take scholars to "review the policy." The word "Jinshi" first appeared in the Book of Rites, which was originally intended to be accepted by nobles. At that time, the main test was current affairs strategy, called trial strategy.
Shen Jiji, the minister of rites in Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, once commented on this change: "The previous generation chose it, and the counties inspected it ... As for Qi and Sui, it was invincible ... and it was attributed to the official department because of the right to buy the state capital. Since then, we have selected from outside, recruited people from all over the world, gathered in the capital in the spring and autumn, and gathered clouds. "
Historians have objections to the start of the imperial examination. Historians such as Yu Gang, Tang, He Zhongli and others all believe that the imperial examination was initiated in the Tang Dynasty. ?
history
The number one scholar is the top figure in the imperial examination pyramid of China and the first scholar. Winning the first prize in the exam is "becoming famous in one fell swoop". The ancient imperial examination was held every three years, and only one champion was produced in three years. It can be seen that winning the championship is quite difficult. Without superhuman talent, strong perseverance and healthy body, it is impossible to become a top student in high school.
From Sui Dynasty to Qing Dynasty 1300 years in the history of imperial examinations, there were 596 literary champions and 82 martial champions 182. Moreover, there are few Jinshi who get the first place in the palace. It is the lifelong wish of ancient literati to "unite the masses with three elements". Historically, "Lianzhong Sanyuan" has different versions and different numbers. The exact number of "Combining the Three Principles" in the history of China Imperial Examination should be 2 1, including 17 Chinese champions and 3 martial arts champions.
Traditional fable mode
Litchi, longan and walnut are three pieces each. Because these three fruits are round, their "round" and "yuan" are homophonic; Some also shoot three copper coins or three gold ingots with bows and arrows. It means "continuous ternary". The imperial examination system in Qing Dynasty was divided into three levels of examinations, and the first place in the pilot was awarded to Xie Yuan, Huiyuan and Champion respectively. For example, in the third-level examination, candidates won three first places in a row, which is the so-called "three-yuan continuous examination", which is the supreme honor in feudal society.
