The college students in Wuyingdian and Wenhua Temple are excellent, but strictly speaking, the college students in Wenhua Temple are generally higher than those in Wuyingdian. From this official position alone, Li Hongzhang is more powerful than Zeng Guofan.

The position of college students originated in the period of Tang Zhongzong. Originally, it was an official position to assist the emperor in marking the throne and drafting letters, but after the Tang and Song Dynasties, most of them were held by the prime minister. In the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang abolished the prime minister system because of the Hu case, but he still set up the Diange University as an adviser to the emperor. After Emperor Renzong of Ming Dynasty, a great scholar was set up in the temple of God, and three orphans were often used as ministers, so-called auxiliary ministers, and gradually formed a cabinet. After Emperor Wuzong of Ming Dynasty, it developed rapidly. This system was still used in the early Qing Dynasty, including Zhonghe Hall, Baohe Hall, Wenhua Hall, Wuying Hall, Wenyuan Pavilion and Dongfang Pavilion. However, at this time, the six pavilions are subject to the Council of Ministers, that is, state affairs are still dominated by five ministers and ten directors. With the gradual unification of the country and the strengthening of the feudal autocratic monarchy system, during the Shunzhi and Kangxi years, the power of the Council of Ministers in charge of deliberation was deprived by most people, and the cabinet participated in handling government affairs.

During the Qianlong period, Zhonghe Hall was abandoned as Tijen Pavilion, so it was changed to Baohe Hall, Wenhua Hall, Wuying Hall, Wenyuan Pavilion, Dongge Pavilion and Tijen Pavilion in turn; However, the university students in Baohe Hall were so distinguished that they were cut in Zhonghe Hall. After the demise of the Qing Dynasty, Fu Heng was the only one who got this position. Therefore, the greatest ministers later were Wenhua Hall of the university, and Xiao Shenyang, a famous corrupt official, was the post. Relatively speaking, Wenhua Hall is in front of Wuyingtang, so Li Hongzhang, a college student of Wenhua Hall, is taller than Zeng Guofan, a college student of Yingtang.

However, because the two college students were not in the same period, Zeng Guofan 1868 was awarded the University of Wuyingdian and Li Hongzhang 1895 was awarded the University of Wenhua. In addition, Li Hongzhang once studied under Zeng Guofan, who was first-class and easy, and Li Hongzhang was awarded first-class Su Yibo (first-class Su after death), so in general, Zeng Guofan's status should be higher. ?
