On the first day of the second month, after enjoying a rare leisure, King Li got up and headed for Yecheng, which would be the center of the storm and the source of the sweeping world. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

At this time, Zhang Juzheng promulgated the first decree after King Li entered politics, replacing the filial piety and honesty system for the imperial examination system, simply put, it is to divide the subject to take scholars, with the local county government and county government as the center, successively open the township examination, the county examination, and finally submit it to the state assassin history office, for the third round of elections, and finally there will be a limited number of places in each state to submit to the Yecheng center, and the central government has all the right to interpret the final promotion and appointment, open the final fourth round of examinations, and allow people who are not limited to birth to participate in the imperial examination.

In the previous life, the first place in the township test was called Xie Yuan, the first place in the general test was called Huiyuan, and the champion of the first place in the palace test was collectively called Sanyuan, but King Li waved his hand and changed the first place in the township test to Wenxi, the first name in the county test was Jiangxi, the first name in the state test was Daxi, and the first place in the last round was called Shangxi, which was collectively called the big four Xi......

The promotion group was named the Tribute Academy, and Zhang Juzheng temporarily took the position of the head of the General Court of the Tribute Academy, and the three deputy courts under it were temporarily led by Li Si, Fu Zhu, and Zhuge Jin, among which the prefectures and counties had the right to open the Tribute Academy's lecture hall, and the head of the local court was held by the highest administrator of the county guard, and the personnel who cooperated with the exercise of the imperial examination system were all deployed by the central Yecheng in addition to their own dispatch personnel, and the location was randomly selected.

The change of the scholar system is far-reaching, and it cannot be explained overnight, but the news reached the territory under the rule of King Li, which can be described as the gospel of the cold family, and the hammer of the noble clan, which has greatly improved the long-term employment system, if it continues to develop, sooner or later it will completely break the monopoly of blood hereditary relations and clans.

"Chao is Tian Shelang, and Twilight is in Tianzitang", some of the middle and lower classes of society capable scholars from poor families will take this opportunity to enter the upper class of society and get the opportunity to display their talents.

However, the development of the imperial examination system also has great drawbacks, and it is inevitable to restrain the minds of some talented people with ideas, but there is no way, at least the implementation of the imperial examination system can greatly weaken the monopoly of the scholars, and take the first step to break the feudalism in a fundamental sense, which is exactly what King Li needs.

As soon as the news spread, it became a major event that was discussed in various states, counties and counties, and many children from poor families saw hope, and rarely put down their books and classics and walked out of the humble room to inquire about how the first imperial examination system would be implemented.

And those remnants of the children of the scholar clan woke up to the fact that the reason why King Li suppressed them was that he was brewing this matter was nothing more than suppressing the backlash and dissatisfaction of the scholar clan to the lowest point, which can be described as well-intentioned and ruthless.

But the wood has been completed, and now the Shi clan, who are not as powerful as before, do not dare to openly oppose this decision, so they can only endure it silently, and it seems that everyone knows that King Li's purpose is not so simple......

Since last year, Zhang Juzheng has notified all prefectures, counties, and counties that the officials under him have been ordered not to pass them on, and the test questions in various localities will be uniformly distributed by Zhang Juzheng, and the invigilators will be composed of personnel mobilized by the central government and local military commanders in addition to the heads of local courts.

The four elections will be held in the first year of the township examination, the beginning of the autumn county examination, the second year of the spring state examination, the last palace examination will be arranged on the first day of April in the third year, just corresponding to the former civil and military competition, in order to replace it, will not feel conflict, and the imperial examination is held every two years, where the previous time to achieve the great joy of the name will be able to take the first three examinations, directly participate in the final palace examination, and so on.

Of course, if you want to directly participate in the first three exams, it is also possible to hit the name of the senior happiness.

I didn't expect the time to be so rushed, and there was still half a month to hold the township test, and some people with a keen sense of smell have noticed Zhang Juzheng's intention, which is to avoid the filial piety and honesty system outside the rule of King Li, although sooner or later it will be docked, but in terms of biennial, at least it will not cause impeachment and fierce resistance from other states and counties in these two years.

King Li traveled all the way to the east, and heard people in the market talking along the way, all of them were about the implementation of the imperial examination system, and suddenly had a bottom in his heart, and now Zhu Yuanzhang's forces were compressed to the line from Chang'an to Tianshui, and it was not bad for him to take advantage of this opportunity to recuperate, of course, the most important thing was to prepare grain and money to deal with the next big construction.

As for the plan set by himself and Zhang Bu, they can also be carried out together, and the two do not conflict.

This time, he didn't stay any longer, entered Yecheng, avoided cumbersome matters, and returned directly to the mansion, where he summoned Zhang Juzheng and Li Si alone.

After the two sat down, King Li said bluntly: "I deliberately stopped along the way, just to hear what the people said, as far as I can see, the situation is very good for our army, and the people's voices are loud beyond my imagination. ”

Zhang Juzheng said: "Liu Fang will not say it for thousands of years, now that the imperial examination system is implemented, half a month later is the beginning of the township examination, and now the scholars have been suppressed to an extreme, they have come together, but they have not come out to cause trouble, I am afraid that in the future, with the expansion of the territory, the local scholars will spare no effort to assist the enemy army to defend the territory, bringing big trouble to our side." ”

King Li stopped his hand and said: "Since this step has been taken, there is no need to worry, it is better that the people of the Shi clan do not come to provoke me, if I am hindered from advancing, the day of the destruction of the city will be the time to slaughter the whole clan." ”

Zhang Juzheng was silent for a while, King Li used to be an indecisive and high-spirited person, but he never thought that in just four years, he would become so decisive and decisive, which inevitably had the credit of Zhang Juzheng, and I don't know whether this change is happy or worried.

At this time, Li Si got up and said: "Your Highness, there has been no progress in the registration of land, and the resistance of the Shi clan is small, but the people do not seem to fully trust us, if this problem cannot be solved, it will cause immeasurable consequences for future land reform." ”

King Li frowned, although the land became dispensable in the troubled times at the end of the Han Dynasty, but for the people of Sanzhou who settled down, it was their lifeblood, and rushing to register would naturally make them think that they were going to do something, but this was a big trouble.

After a long time, he said: "After all, there is no good thing once and for all, and now the imperial examination system is to cope with the implementation of the next three provinces and six ministries, and then a separate centralized regime will be opened, and it will centralize the management of land, step by step, don't rush for quick success." ”

Li Si bowed and saluted, and his posture was extremely low.

King Li said: "Now that Zhu Yuanzhang was forced back to Chang'an by Yang Zaixing, he could have taken it together, but for my plan to win Hanzhong, I had to temporarily let him live, the dark line has entered Hanzhong, and I can start planning just now when I am here, so I want to start planning immediately, otherwise Zhu Yuanzhang will slow down, and with his temperament, I am afraid he will not share a piece of the pie with others." ”
