Chapter 160: Official Academy
Listening to his father's words, Zhu Houzhao showed a smile and said directly: "Erchen does have some things he wants to discuss with his father. ”
Hearing his son's words, Zhu Youzhu realized one thing, that is, his son was going to do something again.
Every time my son does something, it's basically like this. He was used to it, but he was still vigilant in his heart.
Because if the son wants to do small things, he will not come to talk to himself like this; Only when you want to do something big, will you talk to yourself like this.
Glancing at his son, Zhu Youzhu smiled and said, "Then let's hear it." ”
"Yes, Father." Zhu Houzhao simply agreed, and then said directly: "The achievements of the martial arts academy in the past few years have been very good, and most of the generals trained are very useful. The child wondered if it was possible to set up an official school to train officials. After all, the talents selected by the imperial court have no experience in serving as officials, and they have no experience in serving as officials. Most of them only read the books of the sages and did not hear anything outside the window. It is irresponsible for the people to let them go directly to their posts. ”
"There are so many dumb and stupid officials in the imperial court, which makes the people complain about many local officials. That's what the child thinks. Can you find a place to teach them to be officials? At least you must master some criminal laws, understand the "Da Ming Law", and know what the local people are thinking? How to govern the place? Find some experienced officials, even retired officials, and let them do PhDs and teach these new science and technology scholars. Let them understand how to be an official and why they should be an official? How to be a good official! ”
"If possible, in the future, local officials can also be included in the official system, and the imperial court will pay money, and even be promoted if they do well."
Daming's small officials have always been a problem.
These people cannot be promoted, and they have been entrenched in the local area all their lives. All they wanted was money, and they were squeezed more harshly than the officials of the imperial court. Sometimes, they were even able to elevate the officials of the imperial court, which was a very serious problem of official governance.
To solve this problem, the petty officials must be included in the official system. However, the current quality of the Ming officials is very poor, and their backgrounds are different, which does not meet Zhu Houzhao's requirements.
There are so many scholars in the world who are waiting to be officials, and it is better to train them than small officials.
Glancing at his father and seeing that he was deep in thought, Zhu Houzhao continued: "The current local officials are officials, and they don't understand the name of the criminal or the money valley, so they hire some criminal masters and also hire the master of the money valley. If these things are done by the master, then what do these officials do? Instead of this, it is better for the imperial court to give these masters a background and let them become officials. ”
The child visited all directions and found that there was no shortage of scholars in Daming. However, many scholars have no way to get started, so they can only take the exam year after year. This is not a good thing. ”
"If the imperial court can expand the ranks of officials, then it can include these people. The expenditure of the imperial court is nothing more than some money, although it seems that there is a suspicion of redundant officials, but in fact it is not the case. Erchen wants to try it. Saying that, Zhu Houzhao looked at his father with firm eyes, waiting for his father's answer.
Zhu Houzhao attaches great importance to this matter, and it must be done no matter what. He believed that his father could also see the benefits in this.
As for the officials of the imperial court, as long as they let the scholars have more opportunities to be officials, they have no way to object. Because although they are at the top of the readers, there is a huge group of readers below them. It was with the support of these people that they were where they are today. Once they betray the group, it will be a no-brainer to clean them up.
Glancing at his son, Zhu Youzhu pondered for a moment. He said directly: "This is a good thing, you can try it." ”
The reason why he agreed so happily was that Zhu Youzhu knew that the imperial court's finances had been very generous in recent years. Once he did this, Renjun's hat would definitely be on his head.
As for how much it costs, Zhu Youzhu doesn't care very much.
Since the son wants to do it, let him do it. The benefits of his son's doing this, Zhu Youzhu can naturally see it.
Hearing his father's words, Zhu Houzhao was slightly stunned.
Because he didn't expect his father to agree so happily, but it's also a good thing.
"In that case, the child will prepare when he goes back." Zhu Houzhao saluted respectfully to his father, turned around and walked out.
Looking at Zhu Houzhao's back, Zhu Youzhu smiled slightly and turned his gaze back to the fold.
He knew that his son would get things done, and that was the confidence he had given him for a long time.
In such a long time, my son has never done anything. Although there is a lot of criticism in the DPRK, Zhu Youzhu himself has a personal experience that Daming is indeed getting better.
Whether it is the external war, or the internal finances, or the life of the people, the Ming Dynasty is getting better. This proves that what the son said was right and what he did was right.
This is enough for Zhu Youzhang.
After returning to Xianyang Palace, Zhu Houzhao began to think about who to hand over this matter to?
Although he had always wanted to do it, he didn't have the right people to do it.
If you want to cultivate an official who is qualified in Zhu Houzhao's opinion, you need a lot of things.
Of course, Zhu Houzhao can do it himself, but he can't always stare there.
However, Zhu Houzhao can be named, you must know that the jinshi of the imperial examination are called the protégés of the Son of Heaven, and what Zhu Houzhao wants is for these officials to become his protégés.
For Zhu Houzhao, these officials were the basis for his future administration.
After thinking about it for a long time, Zhu Houzhao finally chose a suitable person.
This person is Wang Shouren's father, Wang Hua. Regardless of seniority. Or in terms of closeness, Wang Hua is a very suitable candidate.
Whether he wants to admit it or not, in the eyes of outsiders, Wang Hua's father and son are his own people. This time, let Wang Hua be an official. It is also to elevate his status.
In fact, Zhu Houzhao had long wanted Wang Hua to enter the cabinet. It's just that Daddy's side doesn't agree.
Zhu Houzhao also knows. Dad wanted to wait until he ascended the throne before letting Wang Hua enter the cabinet.
However, Zhu Houzhao is worried that with his father's physical condition, when his father dies, Wang Hua may not be able to enter the cabinet, after all, he is not young.
But it doesn't matter, if he can't make it to the cabinet, he just needs to reuse his son. Otherwise, the father and son are the head of a civil official and the head of a military general, Zhu Houzhao really doesn't dare to do this.
There is no problem with using Wang Hua now, and it is not a big problem to let him take charge of the official school. What's more, he is staring at it himself, and Zhu Houzhao is also confident.
Among Zhu Houzhao's people, Wang Hua is the most suitable.
Like Qi You Shenlu, Zhu Houzhao didn't dare to let them do this.
