Zhang Yun couldn't figure out what was going on, so he saw Wang Anshi in a daze.

The reluctant Xianggong was full of smiles, he did not pretend to be mysterious like Wang Ningan, but was open and honest. "That's the case, according to the proposal of the prince, the sage decreed, my Great Song Dynasty to set up the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the old man is the first head of the court, according to the preliminary establishment, in addition to the imperial court to supervise the political hall and the six departments, each road or two roads, but also to send a governor to supervise the local military, political and financial power, a government affairs ......"

Wang Anshi introduced it in detail, Zhang Yun has been a person for decades, especially in the recent period, he is also a man of the hour, and the official system of the imperial court will not be confused.

The place of the Great Song Dynasty was divided into four parts, the transfer envoy was in charge of money and grain and civil affairs, the pacification envoy was in charge of the military, and then there were prisons and warehouses, and the four parts were divided into powers and mutual constraints...... All the actions have only one purpose, and that is to maintain the absolute control of the monarchy, and not to exceed the control of the place.

But it seems that this governor is a bit remarkable, he can manage everything, and his power is a bit too big!

"At the beginning of the country, in order to prevent the establishment of feudal towns and local autocracy, the imperial court withdrew almost all of its powers. However, after a hundred years of peace, the power of the feudal town has long ceased to exist, on the contrary, the local wealthy family has expanded rapidly, and the local power is decentralized, and it is difficult to form a joint force, and the result is that it is impossible to contain the power of the family and control the powerful ...... So the situation has changed, and the increase in governors is also the proper meaning of the question! ”

Wang Anshi said very well, in fact, Wang Ning'an proposed the establishment of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the emperor agreed, and there was no problem with the political affairs hall, but the Imperial Historical Observatory and the Imperial Court resolutely opposed it, and even the Criminal Department and Dali Temple had ideas.

There is so much power in the first place, and a behemoth suddenly appears, and everyone will suffer...... Needless to say, the Imperial Historical Observatory and the Imperial Court, even the trial power of the Criminal Department will be seriously divided, they can't block the orders of the imperial court, but they can passively resist, the Ministry of Officials does not approve the candidates, the Ministry of Household does not allocate money, the Ministry of Industry does not give the construction of the official office, and the big guys work together to pinch the Metropolitan Procuratorate to death.

Wang Anshi was so anxious that he couldn't sleep, he needed a group of people with black faces and ruthless hearts and no scruples to help him break the situation and establish the prestige of the Metropolitan Procuratorate!

No, Zhang Yun has become his best sword.

"Don't blame the prince, he removed you from your official position to protect you, if you continue to do it, even if you can eradicate the family, it will not end well."

Zhang Yun nodded vigorously, "The lowly position understands, the prince can take care of it like this, and the lowly position is already grateful, but the Juntian Order has not been pushed away, and the place is very chaotic and uncertain, if the court is a little lax, it will give the family a chance to breathe, and they will only intensify and oppress the people!" ”

"Hmmm! You're right! Wang Anshi said with a smile: "Zhang Yun, you are now the governor of Jiangnan East Road and Liangzhejiang Road, in charge of all affairs of these two roads, focusing on ensuring the fair implementation of the Juntian Order!" ”

Zhang Yun was completely dumbfounded, he guessed that he might enter the Metropolitan Procuratorate to do things, but he thought that he could only be a small speech official, how could he be in power?

Now it's okay, the two richest roads in the Great Song Dynasty have been given to him, and this power and status definitely surpasses that of the transfer envoy!

God, you're so good to me!

Zhang Yun seemed to be stunned by happiness, not only was his career not finished, but he also went to the next level, and no one had this luck.

"Thank you for the promotion, I am grateful."

Wang Anshi nodded, "Okay, this is also the reward you deserve for doing things simply, at the moment Jiangnan is still a mess, tell me, where to start?" ”

Zhang Yun suppressed his excitement and muttered for a long time, "Xianggong Wang, the so-called treatment of troubled times is a doctor!" ”

Wang Anshi smiled, "You mean to increase the number of officials?" ”

"Wang Xianggong is wise, it is true, now the shortage of officials at all levels of the yamen is very serious, and it is from officials to officials, and even ordinary errand servants, the gap is huge...... Need to replenish ...... urgently" Zhang Yun said, his voice also lowered, Wang Anshi snorted, you still have the face to say, don't you let you kill!

Wang Anshi pondered, "Okay, I'll go talk to the prince." ”

……

Wang Ning'an was a little excited, and his blood seemed to be boiling.

When it comes to his status, there are really not many things that can make him so excited, but there is one in front of him!

From the founding of the Six Arts Academy to the imperial examination in the second year of Jiayou, Wang Ningan has done a lot of actions to impact the imperial examination system, and this time, he is really going to officially reform the imperial examination!

In fact, the imperial examination system has been somewhat discredited in later generations, what is the imperial examination system, to put it bluntly, isn't it the selection of civil officials by examination! What's the difference between that and the national exam, which is so hot that it explodes? It's not all one thing, the real problem with the imperial examination system lies in two ...... One is that the content of the exam is too rigid, and the second is that the number of people admitted is too small.

In the Song Dynasty, for example, the main content of the imperial examination was concentrated on the scriptures and poems...... In the Ming Dynasty, after the appearance of eight shares, even the format was limited to death.

There are more and more rules, and the road is getting narrower and narrower, what does it mean? That is, the threshold is getting higher and higher, and if you want to be a junior high, you must not only have ten years of hard study, but also have the guidance of famous teachers to help each other in order to pass the test smoothly.

If the bar is high, who is it good for?

Of course, it's a wealthy family!

The children of the poor family can never meet a famous teacher for a lifetime, even if they study hard, it is almost impossible to master the essentials of the imperial examination, but the family can, they do not lack any conditions, which is why the children of the poor family obviously account for more than ninety percent, but in the officialdom, their number is less than half, and they are at a disadvantage everywhere.

On the other hand, many people have a wrong idea, thinking that carefully selected and carefully cultivated, and what comes out must be talents!

Perhaps some of the circumstances are correct, but it is clearly impossible to train officials in this way...... An excellent official, in addition to having sufficient professional ability, must also be down-to-earth, know what the people think, and be able to think about and solve problems from the standpoint of the common people.

Let a person who was born in a wealthy family, grew up with a golden spoon in his mouth, and only knows how to read, how can he experience the feeling of not having enough meals and being hungry and cold?

Can't do it at all!

Moreover, above the imperial court, the proportion of children of the family is too high, and any policy must take care of the interests of the family, which is no way to do it, who makes the family a major shareholder!

Even if you can suppress it for the time being and force the new law to push, sooner or later you will encounter a counterattack...... This is also the reason why the law has always been changed back to the death of people!

"For the sake of our change, it's time to move!" Wang Ningan said meaningfully.

Wang Anshi smiled, "The prince is far-sighted, you are promoting universal mass education, I am afraid that it will be the day of the layout!" Then the chief examiner of this scientific examination is none other than the prince, and I will be the deputy chief examiner for you! ”

Wang Ningan was stunned for a moment, and waved his hand again and again, "Don't, Brother Jiefu, neither of us is suitable to be the main examiner, I have a better candidate." ”

"Who?"

"Wen Yanbo!"

……

"Wang Ning'an, what kind of grudge and grudge do I give you? You have the ability to kill the old man with a knife! The old man won't let you go! ”

I don't know how many times, Wen Yanbo is so angry!

He suddenly remembered that conversation with Wang Ningan, he said that Wang Ningan was just a person, and sooner or later he would be defeated, but Wang Ningan told Lao Wen that history would not always be written by scholars, and he promoted education and promoted the poor, and indeed achieved great results, but Lao Wen was still an old god, and he didn't believe that Wang Ningan could win.

But this time Lao Wen was dumbfounded!

Wang Ning'an proposed that the Xiucai section should be set up as a standard examination for the selection of officials, in addition to the basic content of the competition, there are also laws and regulations, regulations, education, military affairs, public security, commerce, construction, and so on...... Candidates can choose different categories according to their preferences, and after passing the assessment, they can enter the sixth room and act as a scribe.

It is also an evaluation every three years, a big examination every five years, and if you do well, you can be promoted normally, even if you enter the sixth department, or the political affairs hall, it is also possible, and it will not be one level lower than that of a non-commissioned officer because of the problem of academic qualifications...... As long as you enter the officialdom, the opportunities are equal, and they are only reserved for those who can do things!

Wen Yanbo didn't care much about this set of beautiful words, but the number of admissions in the back made Lao Wen dumbfounded!

10,000 people!

10,000!

Wang Ningan, you're a madman!

Since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, there have not been 10,000 Jinshi admitted!

What are you doing here?

With Lao Wen's wisdom, of course he understood that the exaggeration of the number meant that those who could not be admitted to the Jinshi at all had a chance to rise.

Most of these people came from small and medium-sized landlord families, ordinary merchant children, and some citizens...... To paraphrase the concept of the afterlife, it is the middle class...... In a few years, education will be rolled out, and outstanding peasant children will be able to squeeze into this ranks, fighting alone, maybe they are not the opponents of the children of the family, but they can't stand the crowd, and there will always be a few super masters in it.

It is conceivable that in the future, the court of the Great Song Dynasty must be dominated by the children of the Han family!

The reason why the changes of the past dynasties are so easy to fail is that the light has hit the vested interests, and no new interest groups have been established to replace them.

The Shang Dynasty reform was successful because of the cultivation of a military merit cultivation group.

Wang Ningan was even more ruthless, he pushed the Juntian order, attracted the support of the farmers, and set up the Xiucai Department to pocket the middle class, not to mention, the industrial and commercial financial group he cultivated single-handedly.

With the support of three forces, it is even more difficult to bring down Wang Ningan's change than to ascend to the sky!

"yes, that's amazing!"

Wen Yanbo gritted his teeth...... On the second day, Wen Yanbo was once again in good spirits.

As soon as he arrived at the Yamen, his face was serious.

"Xiucai Department fills the deficiency of Jinshi Department and improves the imperial court's talent ceremony...... It is an unprecedented virtue and politics, the old man is very much in favor of it, and you must be a hundred times more careful, and do a good job of this show and make it a model, if anyone makes a mistake, the old man will not be merciful......"

Standing at the door, the reluctant minister nodded sincerely, the prince really has the wisdom to know people, and he can use Wen Yanbo to use it correctly!
