Chapter 264: Investigation and Prosecution of Guozijian
"According to the orthodox fourteen-year rule, the highest requirement for routine supervision is 800 stone meters, and the lowest is 300 stone meters." After Wang Wen finished speaking, even Yu Qian was taken aback.
The concept of this kind of number can only be understood by an official like him, who is conscientious and earnest.
According to the standard of official income set in September of the 29th year of Hongwu, the current annual salary of a second-grade senior member is 700 stone rice, and Shi Heng went to find Taiqian, which was not enough for him to eat.
Even if Yu Qian doesn't have to eat or spend, and how much he pays and how much he saves, then his salary for a year is still not enough.
Even if it is a hundred stones, it will use up the salary income of an ordinary official for almost a year.
Yu Qian just heard it, and immediately understood that this kind of unwritten rule was not set for them as court officials at all.
Because in terms of Yu Qian's current status as a scholar of the six books, if his son really wants to enter the national prison, he will not even use it for Qian to speak, and the people below will do it clearly.
Of course, it is not for the children of ordinary people.
For the children of ordinary families, 100 stone meters is already a lot of money, and the highest 800 stone meters is not even a lot of money, and it can't be saved for a year.
Being able to read a few words in a private school is already burning incense for ordinary people.
So in the end, it can only come from one place, that is, those local tyrants and chaebols who have money and nowhere to use, their children often do not learn and have no skills, and they have no intention of taking the exam.
If you can go to Guozijian to plating gold and mix the name of a protégé of the Son of Heaven, this amount of money is simply a drop in the bucket, but the officials can eat and drink enough and make a lot of money.
Zhu Di thought this was outrageous enough, but he didn't expect that this was just the beginning.
The above kind of regular supervisors are formal supervisors with "student status", and after graduation, they have court benefits, social status, and even can be exempted from the state and county examinations, and go directly to the imperial examination after graduation.
If you don't care about the student status, you can enjoy the internal "preferential price" if you only audit the gold-plated students, or transfer students, arithmetic students, etc.
There is no regulation for this kind of price, and it is generally the official who looks at it and asks for it, and the other party looks at it.
After all, the number of inmates who are not recorded in the register is no different from the correspondence courses of later generations, that is, a matter of one sentence, and there is no need to attend classes at all, and there is no official title of inmate.
Even if you graduate, you will not have the benefits of a formal inmate, let alone directly take the imperial examination like other talents.
When Zhu Di heard this, he was very excited, is this kind of fake prison fart useless, why do people still spend money to get this, is it a brain in water.
What is the purpose of this group of people, even Wang Wen is not very clear, but it is certain that even this kind of fake prisoner has always been willing to spend money to buy it.
Except for the regular prison, which is entered by spending money, the other three are still relatively normal channels, at least before Sun Ruowei opened the regular prison in the thirteenth year of orthodoxy, the corruption situation of Guozijian was not as outrageous as it is now.
For example, in the early Ming Dynasty, the sons of many founding generals studied in Guozijian, and after graduation, they basically went directly to the Governor's Office of the Five Armies or had a division to be an official.
For these people, Guozijian is just a high-sounding ladder to be an official.
Lifting prison refers to the entry of the first person into prison, that is, selecting outstanding people from the first person to study in the country, and this age is generally under the age of 25 and the qualifications are still good.
As for the selection criteria, it is four words - young and beautiful.
This is not difficult to understand, those who fail the exam will have to wait for another four years for the next exam.
Many candidates who are around the age of 24 will basically stand in their thirties next time, and many people can't wait, and the ranking will only get lower and lower in the future.
The so-called youth and quality are beautiful, that is, there are also age requirements for being elected to the national prison, and those under 30 are young.
Those who are almost close to the age of 30 in the next imperial examination will generally find a way to join the Guozijian before the age of 30 through the imperial examination.
The tribute supervisor is the outstanding student sent by the local prefecture and county school to the Guozijian, like Wu Chengen and Pu Songling in history, they were recommended by the local prefecture and county school to enter the Guozijian.
Zhu Di understands very well that these three seemingly normal recommendation channels are now, and the corruption situation is also shocking.
According to Wang Wen, some local prefectures and counties do not recommend students based on whether the student has qualifications or not, but it depends on his family, and those from well-to-do families are often more likely to be recommended.
On the contrary, students from poor backgrounds or those who have repeatedly fallen behind Sun Mountain cannot be recommended by local prefectures and county schools, which seems to be a common occurrence in Daming.
After Zhu Di heard this, he stood up and paced back and forth in the Qianqing Palace.
"What you said is right, if you want to rectify national studies, you must start by rectifying corruption."
Zhu Di was about to continue to say something, but when the words came to his lips, he thought about it but stopped talking.
Only then did Zhu Di suddenly think that the Ministry of Rites was in charge of Taixue, Guozijian and various prefectures, counties, and township schools, and presided over the triennial imperial examination.
Zhu Di knows Hu Hu very well, although he is a little pedantic and conservative, he is indeed not a person who can do such a thing.
Moreover, when Hu Hu was in his last life, he was loyal to Zhu Di and played a great role in stabilizing the situation, but Zhu Di was still unwilling to let Hu Hu lose his evening in his heart.
Honestly, it's a pity.
If there is no major event in the future, for Hu Hu, Zhu Di can turn a blind eye.
"Who is the current Guozi priest wine?"
Wang Wen was shocked and said: "Back to Your Majesty, it's Wang Xun, he was an official in Henan a few years ago, ......
Wang Wen was still talking, planning to introduce the resume of this official, after all, the official position of Guozi Priest Wine is not a joke, it is the principal of the highest national university.
And Fang Cai Hu also introduced again, since Zhu Yuanzhang, the Ming Dynasty has two powers: supervision and management, as the principal of the Guozijian, the Guozijian sacrificial wine is even more noble.
In terms of etiquette, the reputation of the Guozi priest wine is only lower than that of Hu Hu, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites.
Unexpectedly, this sentence was directly interrupted by Zhu Di.
"I don't care what this person named Wang Sui did in the past, but now that there is such a big problem in the country, he is guilty of turning a blind eye."
Let's try it soon, everyone. 】
"Spread the edict and ordered the Jinyi Guard to command Lu Zhong to go to the Guozi Prison to arrest Wang Sui, and the Guozi Supervisor in Nanjing will also be arrested together, which is not a good thing."
"Dismiss the two sacrificial wines in the north and south of the capital and investigate them, and let Jinyiwei give me a careful investigation!"
Wang Wen looked surprised and quickly knelt on the ground.
In fact, his heart had already blossomed, and Wang Wen had already expected this result when he said the inside story just now.
That's exactly what he did.
