After hearing Du Ruhui's explanation of the assessment method, Jingwen actually had a plan for a long time. Jingwen took out a message again and showed it to everyone. And those guys were also surprised when they saw this message, because this was different from the assessment method in the past. Originally, the Tang Dynasty also assessed officials every year, paying attention to the four virtues and twenty-seven most. The four virtues are also an assessment of the character of officials, and the twenty-seven is the most important assessment of whether the position of officials can be conscientious. However, there is no specific quantitative standard for this kind of assessment, so there is still no specific division of ability selection. And in this, it is more of a moral choice.

"This is called the test method, which means that the nine temples and five supervisors of the central departments are responsible for predicting what to do in the next six months. For example, the Criminal Department has a rough estimate of how many prisoners will be tried, what cases will be investigated, or various other things. Then the things to be done by these departments are decomposed into each subordinate secondary department, and then the secondary department is decomposed again until it is finally decomposed to the first level of ordinary officials. And the little officials can know their ability by counting how many things they have completed and how many tasks they have completed. As a rule, the more capable you are, the more you accomplish, and you should be promoted! We can even work out detailed rules to evaluate the effectiveness of a task. It can be divided into A, B, C, which can level the completion of the task and then make a cumulative. When there is a cycle of half a year, after half a year, you can choose those small officials who are excellent in handling affairs, grant them to loose officials from the nine ranks, and then let the responsible prefectures or counties or yamen appoint real positions as appropriate, and they cannot be discriminated against. ”

The one proposed by Jingwen is actually the method of performance appraisal. In later generations, from the national government to the small enterprise sector, there were performance appraisals, but the specific implementation was different. However, the ancestor of this performance appraisal is actually the examination method of Zhang Juzheng in the Ming Dynasty. Jingwen's performance appraisal is basically copied from Zhang Juzheng, that is, the things that each department is responsible for are uniformly estimated, and then evaluated. If it can't be completed by then, then the punishment will be dismissed. This can solve the problem of redundant officials and mediocre officials in a large way, and it is a way to solve the personnel problem.

However, those who are officials are leaders, and they are no longer related to things. If you use this test method, you can only assess the completion of the officials! Dai Xuan said.

But Jingwen also followed up and said: "You can't say that! It is true that an official should lead, but if he cannot lead his subordinates to complete the responsibilities within the scope of his responsibility, he will complete the task as much as possible. Then this leader is also unqualified. If you can't get your subordinates to complete the task, it means that you don't have the ability to lead, so that the official can do it himself? ”

Seeing this test method, many people at the scene were as pale as dirt, because this test method cost a lot of people's lives. Many people are leading the benefits of the imperial court to make a living, but now they actually have to complete the task as the assessment standard, isn't this just to kill people? And in this way, how are they still playing!

"What about some yamen who have few tasks and almost no tasks??" Wei Zheng asked.

Jingwen said casually: "If you can't be assigned a task." That means either the people in this yamen are lazy at all, so they don't have any tasks to do. Or, or maybe that's the fact that there is no need for this yamen to save zài at all. ”

Jingwen's words were not vicious, and he fired directly at the official position of the imperial court. If the task is not assigned at all. Obviously, there is no need for you, the yamen, to save zài. And everyone closed their eyes and began to ponder whether this test method was good or not. And these two can almost be said to be together, and the method of integrating officials and officials must be implemented together with the examination method. And giving the little officials the space to become officials, that means that the officials are truly one. It once again returned to the kind of bureaucracy of the pre-Qin period. But in this case, will there be great resistance to implementation? Especially those who are already in the official position, and those who look down on those who are very despised by the petty officials. Then will they be against it. And whether it is those mediocre officials, those redundant officials, will they desperately oppose this examination method, because it is impossible for them to complete the task.

"It's good, but the resistance is too great!" Fang Xuanling said.

Sometimes, the government knows that it is a good solution, but it just can't implement it. And Jingwen also knew that Zhang Juzheng wanted to implement the examination method back then, but he offended countless people! And after Zhang Juzheng died, he was also "whipped". Therefore, there is a lot of resistance to this test method, and ordinary people can't complete it at all.

"Your Majesty, it's better for us to implement it in Jingzhao Mansion first. As long as Jingzhao Mansion is implemented, then the world can see the effect at that time. Moreover, if it is only executed in Jingzhao Mansion, then even if there is any chaos, the imperial court can be pressed in time, so as to avoid too much chaos. So many bigwigs in the imperial court are in Chang'an, what kind of chaos can happen? Jingwen said.

Jingwen knew that there was a lot of resistance to this matter, so he proposed the method of using the "special zone". Now it is implemented in a small number in a certain place, and once the effect is good, it will be promoted to the whole country again. And even if it fails, the loss is just one place. In ancient times, all the reforms were ordered from above, and the result was a nationwide action. In this way, many people have not been able to understand that they just don't support what is good for them. The best reform plan is to implement it in one place first, and then when the effect is good, it will be rolled out to the whole country again.

And once the effect in one place is good, other places will be willing to follow suit, and then it will lead the whole country. This was the idea of later generations, and the ancients could not have imagined adopting the special zone model. In ancient times, many reforms were carried out, which were obviously good, but in the end, because no interest groups were formed, the results all failed. Jingwen didn't want his policy of withdrawal to fail, so he proposed yì to carry out the so-called promotion of real yàn, only in Chang'an Jingzhao Mansion. And if Jingzhao Mansion is done well, it is equivalent to the whole world can be gradually changed. Moreover, it is implemented in Jingzhao Mansion, and in addition to any problems in time, they can be corrected immediately, and they are not afraid of what people will cause problems. And so many bigwigs are staring, and they are not afraid of those crooked-mouthed monks reciting the wrong scriptures.

"Okay, since that's the case, let's implement it in Jingzhao Mansion for half a year. If it is done well after half a year, it will gradually be promoted by Jingzhao Prefecture throughout the country. Li Shimin said. (To be continued......)
