Chapter 122 Ministry of Water Resources
Whether it is for fame, or really to fight for women, or to run for the position of concubines in the inner palace, the admission ratio of women's subjects this time is frighteningly high. And whether you want to be an official, or you want to go home to marry as a talented woman, the court has given rewards and gifts.
If a woman is born and does not worship the official, she can compete with the county official, and her family is exempt from paying taxes for three years...... Although he has no lord, his rights are almost the same as those of the people.
Zhu Yongxing figured it out, since it was very difficult to force women to be officials in this era, he first advocated and gave these women who dared to eat crabs a high treatment, so that others were red-eyed and warm-hearted, and on the other hand, it promoted women's education. Whether it is a systematic school-type education or a teacher-style family education, improving the cultural level of women is always a matter that is beneficial to the country and the people.
Of course, not all candidates are unwilling to serve as officials, although there are few, but the establishment of a female officer system first, and the framework is also a big progress. The first change was the establishment of a women's prison, in which female officials recruited strong women and strong women in society for top-down management; In addition, female officers of the Martial Arts Department have been appointed to establish a women's police academy to recruit and train trainees. Both departments are subordinate to the Penal Department.
The second is the establishment of women's teacher education and the training of teachers. Originally, Zhu Yongxing issued an order to exclude lowly status at the beginning of his ascension to the throne, firstly, to show the benevolence of the new emperor and the common people's enjoyment, and secondly, to select talents without sticking to one pattern. However, most of the officials of the imperial court objected to the idea that "officials and pastors are important weapons for gentlemen, and they can enter the temple when they leave their nationality at first glance, and they can materialize their civilization and look at it if they are injured", and finally determined that they were allowed to study and advance only five years after leaving their nationality.
And the female official determined that although the recruits from the society did not have merit and fame, they were not officials, but they were also civil servants who ate the emperor's food. In this way, Zhu Yongxing also achieved his goal. Let those who are not from a good background also have loopholes to exploit. For example, there are many women who are proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, which is a good opportunity for them.
After a busy time, the imperial examination is over. Although there are many shortcomings, many reforms are also unprecedented in this era. Eight shares have not been cancelled. However, the proportion of the imperial court has dropped significantly, and the meaning embodied by the imperial court is also obvious, and it is estimated that the Dabi will be more thoroughly reformed after three years. "Apply what you have learned", the imperial court needs such talents, and many people have seen this trend clearly.
There are some things that don't need to be said explicitly, as long as they are advocated and encouraged, so that opponents have no reason to make trouble, and many people know about it. Taking the initiative to adapt and change, this should be a very clever political skill.
Compared with the reform of the imperial examination, the state political structure is also undergoing a series of adjustments, the most important of which is the separation of powers between the criminal department and the official department. It is not accurate to say that it is a separation of powers, but it should be regarded as a subdivision of powers, that is, the separation of civil affairs and judicial trials. The county magistrate is only in charge of civil affairs. Cases are no longer interrogated, and a separate court under the magistrate is established under the jurisdiction of the judge to conduct the trial and judgment. Although the rank of judge is below that of a county official, the appointment is directly under the penal department.
This is an imperfect judiciary, but it is understandable as a first step out of the separation of the executive and the judiciary. Frame first, then repair the decoration, just like building a house. Complicated things need to be broken down before people have the confidence to realize them. If you don't do it, you will never see success.
Just like governing a river, at first glance it sounds like it takes ten years of work and hundreds of millions of dollars. Frightened, they retreated and delayed under the pretext of financial shortage, so when will it succeed?
In fact, what stood out in this imperial examination was not the champion, the leader, and the tanhua, but Chen Huang, who was promoted to the rank of official in the water conservancy major. And the manifestation of Zhu Yongxing's determination and confidence in river control is the Ministry of Water Resources, which came out of the Ministry of Industry, and Shangshu is Zha Rulong of the Prime Minister's Office. Holding the post of secretary of the Ministry of Water Resources with his cronies and former people, that is, the position of river governor who has always been regarded as rich in oil and water in history, is not only Zhu Yongxing's trust, but also shows his importance to water conservancy and river affairs.
Chen Huang became Cha Rulong's first staff member with the main office, and he received the real shortage faster than the top three such as the champion, which can be regarded as a steady progress.
"The money and food of the imperial court are indeed tight, and it is not easy for me to remove 200,000 taels of silver from the customs." As the emperor, Zhu Yongxing doesn't pay attention to his identity when he complains, "What about you, use it in a critical place first, and then I will find a way to take measures." ”
Cha Rulong nodded vigorously and said, "Please rest assured, the ministers will be diligent and hardworking, and live up to Banzai's kindness." ”
"The matter of controlling the river cannot be done diligently." Zhu Yongxing pondered for a while and said: "This Ministry of Water Resources, the success is beneficial for a thousand years, and it can leave a name in history, but it is also a thankless errand." It is still impossible to see that in the future, when the finances are relaxed, the silver for river control will continue to flow like flowing water every year, so will there be less attacks? The reason why I chose you to be this Shangshu is that I trust you, and secondly, I know that you have the courage and are not afraid of slander and sorrow. What I want is a capable official who can do things honestly and have a long tenure! ”
"Long live the oracle, Weichen will remember it in his heart." Zha Rulong was very moved, this is a heart-to-heart statement, what else can be said about this letter.
"And you, Chen Huang." Zhu Yongxing stretched out his finger and said: "Don't be arrogant, theory is theory, whether it is feasible, where and when it is feasible, you must be cautious and careful." Since it is a sectional governance, then it will learn while governing the river, and grow while learning. ”
"Long live the holy words and admonitions, Weichen keeps them in mind."
"I know that this is the Fa-rectification, but the situation in the Northwest River Basin is complicated, and I can only do my best." Zhu Yongxing continued: "I will issue an order to the magistrate to plant more trees and reduce the sediment in the river, which is not a day's work. As for you, let's start at the critical places in the lower reaches of the Yellow River and Huai River, minimize floods, and save the people! ”
"In addition-" Zhu Yongxing pondered for a while, picked up a brush and wrote the will, and then forwarded it to Cha Rulong by the female official after using the seal, "You have to work together with the magistrates, without their cooperation, this labor and materials will not go well." But it is up to you to govern the river, and the magistrate cannot interfere with how to govern it. If there is a disagreement and it is difficult to proceed, you can present this secret message. Well, the Yamen of the Ministry of Water Resources is temporarily located in Qingjiang, Cha and Chen, you will have to work a lot when you are outside. ”
"The minister will live up to the sincere teaching of the saint and trust the grace of the entrustment." Cha Rulong and Chen Huang hurriedly knelt down and took the secret decree with both hands.
"Well, I am in Beijing, you are outside, you have to write more letters to contact, and if you have any hardships, don't keep it in your heart." Zhu Yongxing raised his hand and motioned for them to be flat, "I will try my best to remove obstacles and solve difficulties for you." Well, stand down! ”
