Provincial admission system.

Zhu Youxiao didn't hunt in summer and skate in winter, and he often thought about this problem when he was in the harem.

This thing was done by Kangxi for the first time, first of all, the time span is not large, and it has been used by later generations, which can be regarded as a significant improvement in the examination mode.

The Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions have an overwhelming advantage over other places, the so-called number of imperial examination jinshi, and Zhu Youxiao naturally understands this situation.

The recent disputes between the tribute students in various places also arose because of this.

Compared with the Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions, Beizhili Shuntianfu is nothing, we are from the land of the dragon, and we are afraid that there are few places?

But in the border areas and even some remote areas, it is too difficult to come up with a lifter.

In other words, this policy can effectively reduce the number of people raised in areas such as Jiangsu and Zhejiang, where the imperial examination has always been strong, and provide convenience for scholars in remote areas.

Coupled with the vigorous propaganda of "Beijing Daily", no matter how the Donglin Party talks about it, shouldn't everyone take the test?

Who can really not participate in the imperial examination for the sake of two sentences...

I'm afraid that if this policy continues, even some Donglin scholars will shout: Emperor Shengming of the Apocalypse, we all followed the emperor.

Well, it smells so good!

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that if the imperial court wants to admit students by province, it is better to restore the Han system and show filial piety!"

The ministers discussed for a long time, and Liu Zongzhou, the left deputy of the Imperial Palace, stood up and said:

"Large counties and large states with a population of more than 500,000 can raise five jinshi, and small counties and towns with a population of less than 500,000 can raise two every year, or even one every two years."

Listening to the humming of the lower-level ministers and discussing again, Zhu Youxiao's face darkened.

Restore the filial piety and honesty system of the Eastern Han Dynasty, what does this old man Liu think, isn't that more and more alive?

My Daming, that must keep pace with the times, don't say that the science and technology tree, that is, all kinds of systems, but also embark on the road of progress!

The emperor made a silent defense, and soon, Wei Guangwei tiptoed out and said:

"I don't think it's appropriate!"

"All dynasties and dynasties have a system suitable for the times, after all, filial piety and honesty are more than 1,000 years ago, and the system of filial piety and honesty is not in line with the current scientific research situation."

"The minister thinks that the provincial admission system mentioned by His Majesty can be tried first in the Renxu Branch Palace."

"The minister is the chief examiner, and he is also a minister from Henan, so he can lead several Hanlin ministers to draw up a set of Henan volumes."

"As for the rest of the provinces, also choose an important minister to lead the paper, so that the dispute can be settled!"

Cui Chengxiu, the secretary of the Ministry of War, also said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this proposal is feasible. ”

"In the thirty-seventh year of Wanli, in order to encourage candidates in Liaodong to take the exam, the imperial court stamped the word 'clip' on the test paper.

Seeing that everyone shook their heads, Cui Chengxiu smiled with satisfaction, and his heart was still well prepared, and the birds were eaten by insects, he stretched out a palm and said:

"Five!"

"In the thirty-seventh year of Wanli, the imperial court only stamped one word on the examination papers of Liaodong candidates, and there were five more people in Liaodong candidates!"

When the words fell, the voice of discussion in the temple became more obvious.

Soon, someone stood up impatiently and said:

"I don't dare to agree!"

But it was Shang Baosi Shaoqing Huang Shibin, he said:

"Jiangsu and Zhejiang have been a major province for scientific research since ancient times, and the imperial court has limited access to officials, and to increase the number of candidates in remote areas, it is necessary to reduce the number of places in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Shuntian and other places."

"In this way, there are bound to be people who are not proficient in learning and art, and people who are really knowledgeable, but because of the quota problem, they miss out on fame."

"In this way, not only will the imperial court suffer losses, but it will also be disrespectful to the students who have studied hard for many years!"

"Please Your Majesty, don't do whatever you want, consider the situation!"

When Zhu Youxiao heard this, he opened his eyes, glanced down, and said unhappily:

"What Aiqing means by this means that I want to come out and come out, and I don't look at the situation of candidates in Jiangsu and Zhejiang?"

"Don't dare!"

"Don't dare-" Zhu Youxiao really heard too much of this, snorted coldly, didn't bother to say anything more, turned his head and asked:

"Make a resolution today, if you delay it any longer, it will be too late for the palace test."

As the words fell, the ministers began to buzz again.

Wei Guangwei, Liu Zongzhou, Huang Shibin and others represent two classes and two kinds of four roads.

Logically, both of these ideas are correct, and it is not just a matter of reason who to listen to.

First of all, Wei Guangwei represents not only candidates from remote areas, but also the Wei Party, the imperial party, and puts forward his own points of interest in accordance with the emperor's wishes.

Liu Zongzhou and others tended to be conservative, and even proposed to restore the Eastern Han Dynasty system to ensure the scientific research status of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shuntianfu.

Secretly, this is actually to safeguard the interests of Jiangnan Shizi and the chaebol group.

This controversy actually existed in the Song Dynasty, and since the era of smashing the cylinder, Sima Guang has proved that he is not just a debater.

In the political struggle at the practical level, Sima Guang also won the battle between the north and the south.

As another Jiangxi native in the center of the Great Song Dynasty after Ouyang Xiu, Wang Anshi also had reform measures to speak for candidates in the south in the New Deal.

However, after Sima Guang, who opposed the law, came to power, he eliminated Wang Anshi's new law, and finally won the quota guarantee for the "Northwest scholars" in the imperial examination system.

Although the political ideal of "separate admission" was not fully realized, the Song Dynasty realized the separate examinations of Qi, Lu, Heshuo and Southeast Zhulu in the imperial examination system.

If this time the Ming Dynasty's scientific examination system enters the road of admission of students in advance, it can be concluded that Jiangnan will suffer a major blow.

Since the Song Dynasty, the principle of "the country selects scholars, and only talents are chosen" will be completely broken.

Of course, as the emperor, Zhu Youxiao values the many political "dividends" brought by the separate student admission system.

It can be seen from later generations that after Kangxi implemented "provincial admission", how much help did it help the provinces?

After the reform, Gansu Province, which used to fight zero eggs, produced 255 Jinshi in the Qing Dynasty.

Not surprisingly, Jiangnan was greatly impacted in the reform.

However, due to the strong overall fundamentals of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and other places, in the first hundred years of the Qing Dynasty, it still retained the first position, although it was quite reluctant.

On the whole, after Kangxi implemented provincial admissions, the progress of the northern provinces was very obvious throughout the Qing Dynasty.

Originally, the monopoly of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and other provinces in scientific research was broken, and Hebei and Shandong actually rushed to the third or fourth place, and Henan and Shandong also ranked sixth or seventh.

From the overall point of view, although Jiangsu and Zhejiang rank first, once the per capita data is introduced, it will be found that in fact, Jiangsu and Zhejiang can be ranked tenth.

For every million people, there are less than 100 Jinshi in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

That is to say, after the implementation of provincial admission, the once monopolized provinces for scientific examinations, in the Taqing generation, 10,000 people could not take a turn.

Interestingly, this data in Jiangsu and Zhejiang is still declining year by year, and in the evening sunshine, it is even lower than that of Guizhou...

Zhu Youxiao felt that provincial admission was a necessary reform of the imperial examination system, and from the perspective of the period, the Kangxi period several decades later was already very successful.

In his own apocalypse, Zhu Youxiao is of course confident that the provincial admission system will be developed into a trump card for the imperial court to attract scholars.

Of course, this is also a means to fundamentally break the current Donglin scholars!
