Chapter Ninety-Three: The Discussion Continues
Wu Dali, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, said to the waiter of the Ministry of Rites: "Our master probably doesn't know where he heard something?"
The waiter of the Ministry of Rites listened to the words of his boss and echoed: "I guess so! Our master has the ability and ideas. "Zuobei! Anyway, now the court is already the emperor's hall.
A few people whispered a few more words, and then went back to their homes, after all, Kangxi explained the task, they have to go back to complete it quickly!
These are things that happened years ago.
Kangxi's sudden idea caught countless people who entered Beijing by surprise.
As we all know, readers will always have some sense of superiority of 'self-respect', and this sudden change of title makes those who are full of expectations feel very unfair.
Then they took advantage of their own advantages to 'gather' some 'like-minded' moves, and began to 'spread' the imperial examinations everywhere The imperial examinations of the Qing Dynasty violated the way of Confucius and Mencius.
After all, this time, because Kangxi listened to Yinzhen's words, he came up with some arithmetic questions, which are indeed very different from previous dynasties.
It's been a few days since the test, and after a few days of fermentation, I have different opinions about different people who will try.
As the lifters who have been studying hard for ten years, they are the first to bear the brunt of the loss of interests for the change of topic, of course, they are constantly moving around, constantly writing satirical articles, and they hope to use their 'voice' to express their dissatisfaction.
As the ministers of the Kangxi Dynasty, they have some different opinions on Kangxi's approach.
Most of the Manchu courtiers felt that Kangxi's approach would leave an impression on the Han people that they did not know 'etiquette', which was not conducive to their Manchu rule over the Han people.
The other part (the people who Yinzhen secretly bought) listened to Yinzhen's instructions and expressed support for Kangxi's move, and said: Kangxi's move is a groundbreaking move.
Only a small number of officials did not say anything, and they were very Buddhist.
The matter fermented to a certain extent, and Kangxi called the head of the secret guard who he secretly cultivated to collect news, and said: "Recently, Jingzhong has not been very peaceful, and you will report the performance of each family one by one." ”
The head of the dark guard said: "Back to the master's words, those who oppose your changes in this imperial examination are: the Wulanala family, several princes of the clan ......, and those who express clear support for your move are: Shu Mulu family, Suo Yuluo family, and the Tanhua ...... in the last imperial examination, and those who expressed neutrality are: Tong Jia family, Dong E family, ......."
Kangxi listened to the words of the dark guard, he waved his hand, and the dark guard disappeared into Kangxi's study.
Kangxi thought alone for a while, and said to Liang Jiugong: "You go and call the prince over." ”
Liang Jiugong didn't ask why, listened to Kangxi's words, and walked to the prince's residence.
When the prince heard Kangxi call him over, he didn't think much about it, after all, Kangxi often asked him to go to the study of the Qianqing Palace to teach him government affairs.
The prince came to Kangxi's study, and when he saw the ceremony, Kangxi asked him to sit down.
Prince Yinren: "Huang Ama asked his ministers to come over, but what do you have to order?" ”
Kangxi: "It's not a big deal, I came to Beijing to talk a lot about the imperial examination, I want to hear what you think?" ”
This year's imperial examination topic change incident is not small, Yinren naturally heard about it, compared to him felt that Huang Ama was a little impulsive, after all, the imperial examination is a major event, without strict discussion, rash changes, will cause many problems.
But after all, it was an order from his emperor Ama himself, so he naturally couldn't refute it directly.
Yinren: "Huang Ama, Erchen is a little puzzled, why do you suddenly want to change the title of the imperial examination." ”
Kangxi didn't speak, but showed Yinren the performance of last year's official assessment, and after Yinren read it, with his own knowledge, Yinren could naturally find the problems, but these problems are all commonplace, and he doesn't think that changing the title of the imperial examination can solve the problem.
Yinren thought for a while and said: "Huang Ama, Erchen feels that the change of the subject of the imperial examination is a bit sudden, and this year's judges may have some opinions." "This imperial examination reform will harm the interests of some people, and there will definitely be some twists and turns.
Kangxi: "I know, I just want to hear your thoughts, do you think this imperial examination should be changed?" ”
Yinren: "Erchen thinks it should be changed, but Erchen feels that the change is a bit sudden." ”
Kangxi listened to Yinren's answer, and did not express his joy or anger, and directly chatted with Yinren about the topic of change.
And Yinren was a little nervous because of Kangxi's sudden change of topic, and he seemed a little absent-minded when talking to Kangxi.
Kangxi, as the boss in charge of the world, can naturally see through it at a glance, and the prince who has not yet grown up, he feels a little bored, and lets Yinren go back after saying a few words.
After Yinren went back, he called his henchman over, and he told his henchman Cheng Lin about today's conversation with Kangxi in the study.
The henchman Cheng Lin was also a little confused when he heard it, after all, Kangxi's conversation with the prince was really a bit confusing.
Cheng Lin thought for a while and said, "Master, will the emperor signal you to take the lead in supporting his decision, after all, Lord Suo Etu's wishes can represent the wishes of a large part of the people in the court." ”
After Yinren heard this, he felt that there was some truth, after all, Huang Ama asked him to talk about this matter, and he would definitely not let him express his objections.
Yinren: "What you said has some truth, let Gu think about it again." ”
