296 New Dynasty and New Style (Middle)

The professionalism of the affairs of the eight ministries and eight courts of the new imperial court has been greatly enhanced, and this requires that officials who have studied scriptures and studied moral articles must have a full understanding of the practices under their jurisdiction, the household department has a new household registration system and statistical methods, the Ministry of Industry has an understanding of various construction and industrial development, the Ministry of Agriculture must know how to control rivers and irrigation and water conservancy, and the Ministry of Agriculture must at least understand the knowledge of time and adapting measures to local conditions.

With the backward scientific and management knowledge of the Qing Dynasty, it was obviously not enough to support such a huge practical government, but fortunately, Bai Nan had already prepared and brought some materials. These materials are all easy to understand, and Bai Nan does not put some particularly profound and key content in them. A lot of it is also a big framework content. It is somewhat unrealistic to expect that the Shangshu of the household department will understand what the three major statements of first-in-first-out and accounting are after studying for a month. But at least there is understanding.

According to the preparation plan of the new imperial court, in order to make up for the large number of officials needed by the new imperial court system, the imperial court will open Enke and select talents. The reform of the imperial examination is also extremely huge, first of all, the abolition of the children's examination, all candidates directly in the prefecture of the examination, after passing the examination, there is also an interview, the interview includes a background check. After passing the examination, it will be officially awarded to the lifter, at this time, the lifter will be able to make two choices, one is to directly enter the local government, become an intern public official, and belong to the public after becoming a regular, at this time they have no grade, but further can become an official from the fifth grade. Those who are particularly excellent can be directly promoted to the fifth grade.

The second option, people can participate in the palace examination, the process is also a written test and interview, the palace examination passed, is for the jinshi, but nominally there is no champion, list eye and tanhua. Jinshi served directly in the central government of the imperial court. But it also starts with a non-grade official.

Another major change is that regardless of whether it is the local examination or the Beijing palace examination, all candidates must fill in their intended unit in advance, and in the examination questions, a certain degree of professionalism will also be reflected. This is somewhat similar to the imperial examination in the earliest Sui and Tang dynasties. However, this professional exam question is not too difficult, and most of it is strategy. To a certain extent, the exam questions will be modeled after the Datang Civil Service Examination. It covers a wide range of content, such as mathematics.

Candidates who have passed the imperial examination may not necessarily be assigned to the organ they fill in, and may also be directly transferred to other units, or even go to different places.

In this way, the Eight Shares of the Warrior is equivalent to the complete abolition. For the majority of candidates, this is tantamount to a thunderbolt, but with the decision of the imperial court, they don't have much power to put their beaks. If you want to be an official, you can only adapt to the policy, and that's it.

As for the composition of the current imperial court, it is actually somewhat child's play. Yongyan, as the preparatory emperor, plus Yuan Shoutong and other core officials who have been identified as the prime minister and the palace bachelor, followed the people pointed out by the general manager of the Tang Dynasty, holding a list of ticks, in fact, they basically look at their qualifications, but there are also some people with good attitudes who are very cooperative with the work of the Tang Dynasty. Got some promotions. Not all positions were filled, and some were reserved for local officials who responded to the call of the new imperial court.

Also on the issue of knighthood. Since the Eight Banners system was completely abolished, the clan titles of the Eight Banners were obviously worthless, and only the title of meritorious heroes was left, with some adjustments. The prince is a knight within the bloodline, so let's not mention it for the time being. In fact, there are only a few titles of duke, uncle, and man. Below the title, there is a noble title to reward those who have made outstanding contributions. It doesn't have to be an official. All titles are lifelong titles, not hereditary, which is considered from the position of the Tang Dynasty, and if the Qing Dynasty is replaced by the Tang Dynasty in the future, then a bunch of last nobles are obviously unacceptable.

There is no real job in the title. It's just an honorary title, but it's a good thing. And Yongyan gained great freedom in the issue of knighthood, and he began to feel his power as an emperor from here, so Yongyan began to knight. Prime Minister Yuan Shoutong, one step to the sky, was awarded the title of duke, and among the palace scholars, Cai Xin and Liang Guozhi, two palace scholars, were awarded the title of marquis. Liu Yong also picked up a baron. And a quarter of the officials in the new court have obtained knighthoods, but obviously Yongyan is also a little more leisurely, and he didn't dare to seal it too much, otherwise it is estimated that he will not be sealed in the end.

And Yongyan's proud and cool move lies in the fact that he is more powerful in the knighthood of the feudal officials. In Guilin, where the Great War of Heaven and Earth would be held in Guangzhou, he was considered a meritorious minister and a virtuous minister, and he was directly given a duke. The Governor of Liangguang, Sazai, the Governor of Lianghu, Sanbao, and the Governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, Leerjin, were made viscounts, and the Governor of Sichuan, Wen Shou (in Beijing), was awarded the title of Baron. Even the recently deceased governor of Yungui, Tusid, posthumously crowned a marquis.

In terms of garrison generals, almost everyone has a share. Even Fukangan, who had just fought with the Tang Army in Shanhaiguan, Yongyan directly gave him an earl. And Longwu, who did nothing but escape, also got a viscount. At this point, Yongyan has full pleasure of revenge. However, Bai Nan and the expeditionary force did not have any special feelings about this, since Yongyan was so happy, then let's be so happy.

Bai Nan also somewhat understood Yongyan's plans, he was only a nineteen-year-old boy, and he had no potential and ability, so he was easy to predict. Through the Great Seal Manchu officials, he hoped to get the support of these Manchu officials and avoid being regarded by the Manchus as the emperor of the Han and the emperor who surrendered. He hoped that these officials with real power would be able to come to Beijing to help him. Check and balance the power of Tang and Han officials.

Yongyan once vaguely proposed to Bai Nan that now the capital is sparsely populated and there is no atmosphere of a Beijing teacher, hoping to immigrate to Dingkou and fill the capital. The immigrants Yongyan intended to use were the children of the Eight Banners in Shengjing, Jiangning, Jingzhou, Hangzhou, Fuzhou, Guangzhou, Chengdu and Xi'an. However, Yongyan was very afraid that after these people came to the capital, they would be abducted and trafficked overseas by Bai Nan in a blink of an eye.

In fact, Bai Nan has no objection to Yongyan's plan. If Yongyan can summon 200,000 Manchurians into Beijing, even if Bai Nan agrees not to exile them, it will be easy to control under his nose. Moreover, Bai Nam never had any intention of total genocide. There was almost no difference between the Manchus and the Han in later generations, so it still had to rely on ethnic integration. In terms of policy, he will ask Yongyan to completely abandon the Eight Banners system and allow Manchu and Han intermarriage, and he will completely open the boundaries between the two cities inside and outside the capital, so that the Manchu and Han and even other ethnic groups can live here together.

However, Bai Nan was also quite skeptical that Yongyan would be able to move 200,000 people from Mancheng elsewhere to the capital. (To be continued.) )
