Looking at the history of the present, the education systems of all countries, both Chinese and foreign, generally have the same core commonalty, that is, on the surface, they dare not toss much, but in the final analysis, they are still a tool used by the ruling class to screen 'their own people'.

This has nothing to do with the state system, social environment, etc., but is the inevitable choice of the ruling class in order to maintain its rule.

In the Tang Empire, it is also not exempt from vulgarity!

Otherwise, why don't you say Li Xuan will let go of all the educational resources?

It's a simple matter, just gather the best teachers in the empire, record all their lectures, and publish them in a book and make them available to the whole society.

From primary school to secondary school to prep and then all the way to university!

There are at most a few hundred excellent teachers who need to be used for this matter, and even if they are published into books, let alone sold, even if it is the cost of free distribution, for a huge empire with an annual financial income of more than 100 million yuan, and at the same time, the printing industry has also been greatly developed, and can distribute newspapers like the Tang Dynasty newspaper on a large scale.

The cost barrier can be ignored!

And with the teaching records of these excellent teachers and other detailed teaching materials, even if the teachers are poor schools, they can enjoy first-class teachers, ordinary teachers can't teach, it's okay, just follow the script, just memorize the excellent teacher's script, and it's not difficult to be a repeater.

But this kind of simple solution that can be thought of by the mentally retarded, but not to do it?

Why?

Because Li Xuan didn't want to do this!

If these educational resources are released, Li Xuan dares to use the head of the Manchu Dynasty to guarantee that in a few years, a large number of rebels will emerge, and he will not know how to die when he dies.

The wisdom of the people is a double-edged sword, which is good for production, but definitely not for governance.

For a qualified politician, it is most appropriate to cultivate a small elite and carry out a policy of fooling the people to the vast majority of the people, otherwise, the fate of the Manchus will be their fate.

was killed by the talents of the new era cultivated by himself, and among so many incidents of the death of the country, the Manchu Qing Dynasty can be regarded as relatively representative.

If it did not carry out education reform back then, unswervingly continued to close the country, and did not allow people to study abroad or something, well, please refer to the north of the 38th parallel, south of the Yalu River, the people claim to live very happily in a small centralized monarchy, the local royal family has been playing this set for decades, and now it is very nourishing.

Regardless of the storm outside, three generations of fat people stood still, insisting on closing the country and blocking the people's wisdom unswervingly, who can be more awesome than them in modern society?

Dictators in West Asia, Africa, South America, etc., who are spurned by one vote, are not even worthy of carrying shoes for others.

You can't accept it!

Of course, although Li Xuan admired their methods in his heart, it was impossible to really let him do this.

Conscience can't get by!

There's no way, although he said that he was the emperor, he was an ordinary person before he crossed over, and he still had some human morality in his heart, which was still slightly inferior to a pure ruler.

Because, he still has a little conscience!

If you really do these things, occasionally in the middle of the night, such a little bit of conscience will also come with a faint pain!

Therefore, although the education system of the Tang Empire adopts elite education, it has a large-scale scholarship system, which is very perfect from primary school to university.

In almost all universities, students on full scholarship will account for more than 20 percent, which can be said to be implemented at Li Xuan's forced request, and many officials of the Ministry of Rites actually do not agree to the implementation of such a large-scale scholarship system.

But these people can't influence Li Xuan's choice!

No matter what, Li Xuan still needs to leave an opening for ordinary people, so that they have goals and hopes to strive for.

The education system integrates the meritocracy system and the scholarship system, which seems so strange, and many other systems of the same Tang Empire, many of which are also relatively strange in the eyes of later generations, such as the Ministry of Justice, which is a legislative body.

However, this kind of legislature is a formal executive branch, directly under the cabinet, and its political status is not much different from that of other ministries, and it is completely different from the legislature of many later countries, which is various parliaments, assemblies, and so on.

Why?

Thinking that the Tang Empire is a monarchical system, it is impossible to discuss the nature of any institution, the emperor is the sky, the emperor is the earth, the emperor's words are the law, and what the legislature needs to do is to formulate relevant laws according to the emperor's wishes.

And the purpose of the law is nothing else, it is also to maintain the rule.

The laws of the Tang Empire are just a tool, and like the affairs of the army, hundreds of officials, etc., they are all tools that Li Xuan uses to rule the empire.

From this point of view, then you will also know that the purpose of Li Xuan's judicial reform is also not to give the world a world free of corruption, but to maintain the rule, so there are many judicial reforms that seem very unreasonable or even flawed.

Therefore, there was a law department composed of a bunch of administrative officials, who formulated and changed the law according to the emperor's opinion, and as for the opinions of ordinary people, sorry, they couldn't hear it, and they ignored it when they heard it.

The changes in the Ministry of Justice are similar to those related to the Inspectorate and the Supreme Court, and they are all personnel and financial reforms.

And the changes within the departments are actually not significant.

The Inspectorate is still responsible for public prosecution and supervision of hundreds of officials, and even the department responsible for supervising hundreds of officials has not changed, and it is still the Anti-Corruption Bureau of the Inspectorate.

But on the whole, although it has not changed, this is enough for Li Xuan, without the restraint of administrative officials, the judiciary, especially the Inspectorate, can be free from interference.

In this way, when the Inspectorate supervises hundreds of officials, there will not be too many constraints.

The changes in the Inspectorate, and even the changes in the entire judicial system, are only part of Li Xuan's reform of the rule of officials, and this kind of reform will not have any significant effect for a while.

really wants to get significant results in a short period of time, Li Xuan is still ready to carry out a purge operation.

Although the scale of last year's campaign to rectify the administration of officials was not small, it was obvious that it still failed to deter hundreds of officials, otherwise there would not have been any large-scale corruption incidents in Gangbuk-do.

This time, Li Xuan is ready to engage in large-scale corruption, and unlike the previous ones that only targeted middle and low-level officials, this time he is ready to engage in it from the top down.

Get down to a few high-level corrupt officials, increase their influence, and deter hundreds of officials, and then continue to engage those middle-level officials, and finally low-level officials.

Because the upper beam is not correct and the lower beam is crooked!

There are so many low-level officials who are corrupt that they can't be caught, but the number of middle- and high-level officials is limited, and it's easy to investigate, arrest, and kill people.

And there is the added benefit of freeing up more seats for the officials below.

The empire has been established for more than ten years, not only the generals, but also the promotion of civil officials is relatively slow and stiff, and a large number of officials in the early days of the empire occupy important positions, and they have been in high positions for many years.

Of course, this is only incidental, the main reason is to announce to the outside world: I am ready to crack down on corrupt officials, you all give me to be careful, don't make trouble!

That's right, the main thing to point the finger at high-ranking officials is to show an attitude and deter hundreds of officials, so that they have the idea that the limelight is too tight now, stop for a while, and then do it later.

In this way, some officials who were originally prepared for corruption can be afraid, and then stop the idea of corruption, and the officials who are already corrupt can stop continuing to be corrupt.

Li Xuan never thought that relying solely on this method could completely block the problem of official corruption, which is almost a matter of indifference, from ancient times to the present, regardless of whether it is Chinese or foreign, this kind of matter has not really been solved.

As long as there is such a thing as power, then it will inevitably be accompanied by the abuse of power for personal gain, so official corruption, like prostitution, is an ancient and tenacious tradition, which has remained unchanged for thousands of years.

Li Xuan was not confident that he would be able to put an end to this ancient and tenacious tradition!

The purpose of judicial reform is only to control this kind of thing to a certain extent.

And now he is preparing to carry out a large-scale rectification of officials, planning to kill a few high-ranking and corrupt officials, and just hoping to make those officials honest for a while.

It is impossible to completely eradicate it, and what Li Xuan wants is only a little control.

So when the judicial reform was completed, Li Xuan started the next plan, which was still the old routine, taking the corruption incident in Jiangbei Province as a starting point, and then detonating the whole country.

At Li Xuan's behest, the Anti-Corruption Bureau of the Inspectorate, which had just completed its reorganization, dispatched a special case team to Gangbuk-Dao, which was basically rotten in the rule of officials.

In the imperial system, the rank of the imperial history is the third grade, and in the inspectorate system, it is second only to the second grade of the imperial history, and the deputy imperial envoy from the second grade.

It is worth noting that the post of director of the Central Anti-Corruption Bureau of the Inspectorate has also been greatly improved after the reform, and the original position of the director of the bureau is only a three-grade position, which is equivalent to the ordinary position of the director of various departments under the central ministries.

However, in this reform, Li Xuan personally stipulated the rank of the director of the bureau as the second rank, which was served by a senior official at the level of the deputy imperial envoy, basically the same level as the squire of each ministry and the governor of each province.

The Anti-Corruption Bureau has various divisions, and the director level of each department is the Imperial History of the Governor.

After the reform of the anti-corruption bureau, the number of people has swelled rapidly, and the grade of officials who have served during the period is generally high, which is also for the sake of improving the authority of the anti-corruption bureau.

Well, that's right, the number one target of the Jiangbei Task Force this time is Xie Guanglin, the new Taoist of Jiangbei Province!
