"There is also an edict to the people who are willing to emigrate, telling them that as long as they emigrate, once they reach the other side of the ocean, each household will be given at least 300 acres of land, and the barbarians who are captured will be all slaves of the immigrants!"

"Your Ministers obey!"

"Now you Aiqing should know why I said that there is no silver, the family is big." Zhu Houwei sighed and said: "The essence of conquest lies in plundering and colonization, but after all, Britain and France are the places where the imperial brother conquered, how can I be embarrassed to let the imperial brother use the stolen silver to feed the Ming Dynasty, and I don't know that firewood, rice, oil and salt are expensive."

Yang Yiqing understands in seconds!

The emperor means that he is embarrassed, but they can go to the emperor of war to cry poor, the emperor of war is so good-looking, how can he be embarrassed to refuse?

At that time, you are not allowed to send a mountain of gold back to Daming......

"Qin Shi Huang unified the six countries, the implementation of the car on the same track, the book with the text of the great policy, this has the basis of the great unification, Confucianism for thousands of years to unify the ideology and culture, this is understandable, want the West to return to the king as soon as possible, or rely on Confucianism."

"Your Majesty means to ......"

"Not bad." Zhu Houwei nodded and said, "I plan to send 10,000 Confucian students to the War Emperor, including various low-level officials, and when they arrive, they can be entrusted with important tasks!"

"Your Majesty......" Yang Yiqing said helplessly: "I'm afraid that there are not many scholars, especially those with meritorious reputation, who are willing to go to distant overseas, let alone officials."

"How to get Confucian students to go voluntarily, the cabinet will find a way, it's nothing more than a set of official wishes, there will be countless official positions waiting for them over there, why don't those children who haven't even been admitted to the imperial examination for a lifetime not go, as for the officials, I have a way to let them go!"

"I understand." How could Yang Yiqing not know what the emperor said, and couldn't help but feel a ray of sympathy for those officials: "Your Majesty, now that the official system has been greatly reformed, many talents have been flooded into the officialdom, and now Your Majesty wants 10,000 scholars to go overseas, but I am afraid that Daming will fall into the dilemma of lack of talents."

"The imperial examination is the fairest, most reasonable and most perfect system at present, and I have no intention of reforming it, but ......"

Several important ministers trembled slightly, their worst fears seemed to be about to happen, even though they knew that this day would come sooner or later and they were powerless to change, they still couldn't help but tremble at this moment.

The dispute between Confucianism and Taoism is a battle of life and death, and as a famous disciple, he is bound to defend the Tao to the death!

This is completely different from many other policies reformed by the emperor, if Confucianism declines or even declines during their reign, then they will be the greatest sinners of Confucianism for thousands of years!

"You don't need to be nervous." Zhu Houwei smiled lightly: "I know what you think, I will not abolish the imperial examination, let alone shake the foundation of Confucianism, but the imperial examination is too inefficient in some places, and it needs to be changed."

"The ministers would like to hear about it." Yang Yiqing took a deep breath, his tone was a little cold, and he seemed to be ready to break with the emperor.

"Anyway, the Jinshi is customized for the official, but in the triennial examination, there are only three or four hundred Jinshi who are finally selected, which is equivalent to more than 100 people every year.

After these jinshi entered the officialdom, there were many *****, corrupt people, and shallow talents.

If I want to clean up the officialdom and get rid of those unqualified officials, how many officials do you think in this world can stay in office? ”

Several important ministers at the top of the Ming pyramid were speechless.

The Ming Dynasty has a Jingcha system, but most of the Jingcha is nothing more than a formality, and has even become a means of attacking political opponents, how can there be so much justice at all......

"Your Majesty." Liang Chu opened his mouth and said: "Since the imperial examination system is fair, and it has been passed down for thousands of years, it has been used by successive dynasties, it can be seen that its selection of talents is reasonable, Your Majesty likes to reform unreasonable maladministration, since the imperial examination is reasonable, then why should it be changed?"

"Liang Aiqing is right, it's better to listen to my thoughts." Zhu Houwei said with a smile: "The system of selecting talents, from the inspection and recruitment to the nine-grade Zhongzheng system, until the imperial examination system that has been handed down to this day, it can be said that the imperial examination is indeed the most reasonable system that has been used so far, and it is also the system that gives the most hope to poor students."

However, no matter which dynasty it is, there will be no shortage of talents, not to mention the major reform of the official system in the world, coupled with the imminent expansion of the territory, I need too many scholars.

And to be honest, it's not that I don't have a bad opinion of Confucianism, but I don't have a good impression of the scholarship called Confucianism.

Scholars are the elite of the Ming Dynasty, and scholars get the opportunity to become officials by reading the books of sages, but what do they rely on?

It is the Four Books and the Five Classics, because in my eyes, the Four Books and the Five Classics are the classics of the sages, and they are to let the readers understand the thoughts of the sages and give birth to their own thoughts, rather than just reading the words of one family! ”

The ministers understood that the emperor's spearhead was directly directed at Zhu Xi and Zhu Sheng!

Where did the emperor get his courage!

You must know that the Four Books and Five Classics annotated by Zhu Xi are the great system set by Emperor Taizu, known as the unchangeable system!

The emperor even wants to start with such a big system, it can be regarded as a dictionary forgetting his ancestors!

"Zhu Sheng's commentary on the Four Books and the Five Classics represents his family's words, whether the commentary is completely in line with the ideas of the sage's writings, I don't want to discuss it, but what about the reader's own thoughts?

What I want is a reader with his own thoughts, not a reader who follows the crowd, a reader who is imprisoned in his thoughts, will become a famous minister, a capable minister?

Yes, but the probability is much lower, the Ming Dynasty has been one hundred and fifty years now, how many ministers have been born? There are only a handful, but you can go and see how many famous ministers were born before the Song Dynasty crossed to the south.

You Aiqing are all great Confucians, don't you really think that there is nothing wrong with the annotations of Zhu Xi, a famous scholar of science in the imperial examination?

Zhongqing knows, but Zhongqing doesn't think so, because you are the beneficiaries, and you have all come over like this, so you haven't thought about changing.

But have you really considered the children of famous teachers who are still on the road to the imperial examination, like thousands of troops crossing a single-plank bridge? You don't, it doesn't matter if it's reasonable or not, you take it for granted.

The imperial examination has to test the four books and five classics, but how many have been tested so far, you can calculate, if in another two hundred years, these four books and five classics can still have questions that can be examined, if not, what should you do?

Maybe you can spell the question, that is, take out half a sentence from this sentence, and connect it with half a sentence of another sentence, and form a new sentence, even if this sentence is not on the horse's mouth, it doesn't matter, after all, it is in the book of sages, it doesn't matter if the candidate will not, as long as there is a question to come out.

But this is the original intention of the imperial examination of the Four Books and Five Classics? No, it's just that you're poor in donkey skills. ”

The ministers were dumbfounded, the emperor could even think of such a method, what kind of genius was he......
