Volume IV Chapter 2 Enko

"Where did you hang out again? If you have time, read more in your room! It's not a child anymore, it's such an adult, and it can't be reassuring......"

Ginger? When I went back, Jiang's father sat in the room with a calm face and waited, splitting his head and covering his face was a reprimand, Jiang? Stand there respectfully, with only promises in his mouth, waiting for his father to finish speaking.

Every time the emperor moved to a wealthy and prestigious family, a large number of families would fall. The price of goods in Kyoto must be expensive - the family has the dignity of the family, and they are all strong and powerful gathered together, each with their own way, no one is easy to bully, and they can no longer control the place and the fish and meat country; This one in and one out, slowly, the waist bag will naturally lose weight. And many heroes gathered in one place, a group of heroes, competing for a limited way to enter the office, and the competition between them was fierce. If one or two generations cannot stand out from it, the fall of the lintel is inevitable.

It can be said that this is a critical turning point at this time, and whether the Shui Jiang clan will prosper or fall one day depends on their generation. Jiang's father saw that his son was not growing up like this, of course, he was heartbroken.

"Father, the child also has a little bit of a shallow opinion on this matter......

Finally, when his father said that he was tired, while he was breathing, Jiang? Speak quickly to defend yourself.

Although Jiang is in Tianshui, far away from the Central Plains, Jiang? In recent years, he has been very concerned about Emperor Longwu's various measures. When the general trend of the world has been decided, others are attentive at this time, Jiang? It's already ahead of the curve.

"Your Majesty has made great efforts to reform the evils and seek strength, which is a change that has never been seen in the ages...... (Ginger?) Praise Zhang Han well. Jiang's father was very impatient, and at his urging, Jiang? Eight hundred words omitted)

Nowadays, there are three feasible ways for children to enter the career path: the first is inspection; Chaju inherited the tradition of the Han Dynasty, and for various reasons, this path is not very promising. The child is interested in the latter two paths - Enke and Zhuxue.

Among all the schools, the Senior Military Academy is the most difficult to enter;

In addition to the children of the royal family, there are the children of the nobles. If you want to enter it, you can only join the army. Step by step promotion, in order to have a chance. In addition, there are only six people who won the martial arts last year.

It is not too much to learn and gather Confucianism, and it has the loudest reputation and the strictest requirements among all schools, and it is famous for being easy to enter and difficult to get out;

However, the child was not optimistic about it. His Majesty pays more attention to merit. After graduating from there, you may go further in the end, but I am afraid that the promotion in the early stage of employment will not be satisfactory.

Needless to say, the Medical Park, the rest of the Law Garden and Niushan Taixue, the children prefer Niushan Taixue more......

In the eyes of a child. Graduated from Niu Shan Taixue, and then caught up with Enko. That couldn't be better......"

Ginger? His chest was straightened, and his eyes were bright. Apparently confident in what he said. Talking and talking. He couldn't help but yy up. Father Jiang looked at it, and the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned. He also has high hopes for this son. Now I see, my son has not lived up to his expectations. Satisfied to satisfied, Father Jiang would not be soft, but his gentle tone completely betrayed him.

"What nonsense?! That Enke is specially opened, where is it so easy for you to catch up? Besides,I know that's the case.,It's not good to read well.,Prepare for the entrance exam to Niushan Academy.。 Do you think anyone can get into Niu Shan Taixue?

If you can see it, there will be more people who will see it......"

Seeing that the wrinkles on his father's forehead were stretched, Jiang? also breathed a sigh of relief, bowed slightly, and said with a smile, "Yes!" ”

In the first year of Longwu (198), Zhang Han became the emperor, and in order to win the hearts of scholars all over the world, he immediately issued an edict announcing that the imperial examination would be held. Along with the announcement, there were also some specific regulations for the imperial examination.

For example, the imperial examination is specifically divided into eight subjects: Xiucai, Mingfa, Mingsuan, Mingjing, Jinshi, Mingzi, Construction and Wuke; There are five forms of examination: oral examination, scripture, Moyi, questioning and poetry; There is no requirement for the identity of the candidate, as long as they are not criminal slaves, any Chinese can go to Kyoto to take the exam; The examination time is set for February of the second year of Longwu; After passing the public examination, the best will be selected and awarded official positions; If the candidate was originally an official, he or she will be promoted in the original grade.

It's not that Zhang Han doesn't want to abolish the probation system and replace it with an examination system. However, it is not that simple. In a way, the overall power of the noble family has been weakened. However, it would not be too much to regard Buqixue as the new base camp of the family's power. During this period, most of the students came from poor families, but most of the Confucians were from families. At this time, the master and apprentice are really like father and son. In this way, the influence of the family can be said to have not decreased, but has been reborn, and due to the sharp increase in the number of scholars, it has also declined relatively.

The family is naturally formed, and the wildfire is not burned and the spring breeze blows and grows again. When the old land family falls, a new family will rise. If they can't be eliminated, Zhang Han hopes to weaken and transform them. Make it a loyal courtier of the Great Qi, not a source of trouble. Since this is the case, Zhang Han can't ignore the family's reaction. This time Tekai Enke is not only a temptation, but also a paving the way for the next plan.

The edict shook the world. Previously, only small officials who did not enter the stream could take the exam. Now, as long as you pass the exam, you can become an official. At the time, everyone called it "Leaping Dragon Gate". It is described that the test taker has jumped from cloth clothes to a high-grade official.

Frankly speaking, this imperial examination was held in a very hasty manner, and it was the first time it was held, and there were many jokes during it. In the city of Xindu, tens of thousands of students who came to take the exam gathered. Food and lodging for these people have become a problem. Zhang Han found out that he held the imperial examination for the first time, but he neglected the preliminary examination, so he had to hold the preliminary examination in Xindu first to screen out some candidates.

Among Enke, Xiucai is the most noble, and the requirements are also high, and it must be able to understand all the scriptures. Xiucai is Maocai, and in order to avoid the name of Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu in the Eastern Han Dynasty, it was changed to Maocai's. Xiucai only took three places. In fact, the three Zhang Han all feel that it is too much. The great Confucian Lu Zhi has been studying for nearly 30 years, and he has won Zhongmaocai. Zhang Han was reluctant to take Zhongmaocai at the beginning. The difficulty of the test can be seen.

Later, as expected, only two Xiucai were selected out of tens of thousands of people. One is Cui Yan, the former prime minister's mansion Dongcao Rafter, Zheng Xuan's protégé. The other is Bing Yuan, who is as famous as Hua Xin and Guan Ning - the people of the time compared the three to a dragon, Hua Xin is the head of the dragon, Bing Yuan is the belly of the dragon, and Guan Ning is the tail of the dragon. Bingyuan's talent can be imagined.

Bing Yuan had repeatedly refused to work for Zhang Han, but at that time he took the initiative to take the exam -- which fully demonstrated the recognition of the new regime by traditional scholars and doctors -- Zhang Han was even more happy, and he was very happy to experience the happiness of "all the talents in the world are in my pocket" of Tang Taizong.

The law of the month is the law department, which examines the scholars' understanding of laws and regulations and cultivates specialized talents, and a total of six people are selected. Most of the candidates for the Ming Law Department were officials, three of them, and some of them were students from the Law Garden, two of them. Only one is from the people, but he is also from a family of laws.

The Department of Computing aims to train and select professionals who are proficient in mathematical knowledge and computing skills. Because Zhang Han likes to speak in numbers, and stipulates that all officials need to be audited when they leave office, there is a great demand for accountants. Most of the 12 recruits are finance and accounting personnel. During the exam, I saw that everyone in the examination room had an abacus in their hands, and their fingers flew and the abacus beads crackled. The examiner couldn't help but feel a lot of hatred in his heart, and secretly said "insulting Sven", and his face was miserable. After the people of the time knew the result, they also teased and said, "This is not the Ming Calculation Branch, but the Yu Branch!" ”

Rise up, China has never been less intelligent. Since Zhang Han divided the accounts into two columns, it was quickly divided into four columns, which were "old management, new collection, dismissal, and reality". These four columns are the "opening balance, current income, current expenditure, and closing balance" in the subsequent accounting accounts. This accounting method is famous, issued in the Tang Dynasty, flourished in the Song Dynasty "Four Pillars Inventory Method".

The Ming Jing is also the "Five Classics", but the test is family law, and the requirements are far less strict than Xiucai, and you can pass one or two classics. However, this is what the world's scholars learn, and they think it is easy to get into, but there are the most test takers, and the competition is also fierce.

The Jinshi scientific examination is poetry, and the general writing is not bad, and the poetry is well written. It's okay, but the status of Jinshike is not high, and like Mingzi, it's all for the selection of secretarial personnel. Of course, secretarial is also a shortcut to promotion, which is the same throughout the ages.

The Department of Construction is mainly to select talents who are proficient in architecture, construction and other skills.

In ancient times, the status of craftsmen was relatively low, and even the technical officials who managed these affairs were looked down upon. Zhang Han deliberately set up a construction department, which caused a lot of controversy. However, Zhang Han has high prestige. It was easy to convince Zhang Jian, Xi Zhicai and others. If these old ministers do not oppose it, the opposition of the rest of the ministers will have little impact. After Zhang Han struggled, he drastically reduced the number of admission places to three. The ministers also gave Zhang Han a face. In hindsight, the ministers had a vague feeling of being deceived. It seems that Zhang Han didn't want to take more - it's okay to insist. Cuts or not, it's all about bargaining. However, Zhang Han later found that it was becoming more and more difficult for the ministers to deceive.

The three people who were admitted to the examination were all subordinate officials of Cen Tao, who was originally a master craftsman and is now the secretary of the Ministry of Industry. Zhang Han was somewhat disappointed. The purpose of improving the status of technical officers. It was accomplished, but the purpose of recruiting excellent craftsmen failed. Under Cen Taodi's reminder. Zhang Hancai remembered, although he tried his best to popularize education. But the time is still short, and well-read craftsmen are still rare.

Thereupon. Zhang Han ordered the local officials to select outstanding craftsmen and send them to Xindu together with their proud works to participate in the royal hundred crafts competition held in the middle of the year, and the winners were rewarded with heavy prizes and the title of "skilled craftsmen" recognized by the royal family. Naturally, Zhang Han's unscrupulous work aroused the vigilance of the ministers. In order to prevent the slightest slight, the ministers quoted scriptures and classics to advise Zhang Han not to lose his mind. In just a few days, the music came like snowflakes. Zhang Han has always been lenient in dealing with the ministers who advise, even if he is a fame seeker, that is, he denigrates things. The ministers have no worries, and they are accustomed to writing and talking from time to time.

Zhang Han had to explain to the ministers in the court meeting: "I don't like to have fun. It's about exchanging technology and popularizing technology." He also used the inverted waterwheel to illustrate how important it is to invent and popularize a key technology. Zhang Han said that his mouth was dry, and the minister was stubborn......

Such troubles, sometimes, Zhang Han is also very annoyed.

However, Zhang Han knew that the defense of the people was more important than the defense of Sichuan. The ruler is short, the inch is long, no one can conquer the world, and no matter how smart and capable people are, they will inevitably make mistakes. The ministers have said that they are wrong a thousand times, and there is nothing, after all, it is up to him to decide whether to adopt it or not. I am most afraid that the ministers will see the mistake, but they are unwilling and dare not speak out......

At this point, I suddenly remembered the matter of "a hundred flowers blooming". I don't know why some people still admire the Taizu of this dynasty so much? The Emperor of this dynasty openly solicited opinions and asked people from all walks of life to emancipate their minds and help offer suggestions, but as a result, after being told about the sore spots, he even slapped him backwards, saying that he was "leading the snake out of the hole", ignoring the country and his own reputation, and branded all the people who put forward opinions into rightists. The actions of the Securities Regulatory Commission and the Time and Space Administration in later generations are not only trivial, but simply not worth mentioning. Such a shameless thing can't even be done by the guy who cheekily calls himself a "perfect old man". It is no wonder that "people are shameless and invincible in the world" will be admired by today's people. Hey, a top-notch politician, a first-rate military strategist, a second-rate writer, an unconventional ruler, that's all. Later, it was the Cultural Revolution...... Let's not talk about it, let's get down to business.

Therefore, Zhang Han has always been very tolerant of the ministers, although he is often angry enough, he hates to secretly prick the straw men of the ministers, and he refuses to punish them severely for this. It's not that Zhang Han is magnanimous, but he knows that a lonely person can't govern a country well, so he has to endure it.

In ancient times, not everyone could see the Book of War. On the one hand, books are valuables; On the other hand, the government also strictly restricted the dissemination of military and war strategies. Zhang Han became the emperor and felt that this matter was very necessary. In the Yellow Turban Rebellion, if Zhang Jiao was proficient in the art of war, I am afraid that he would not know what to do now! Therefore, the martial arts examination is riding and shooting, and it is necessary to have a certain foundation in writing and arithmetic. Moreover, it is also required that the test taker has a clean net worth and must be recommended.

After this exam, Zhang Han would rather lack than abuse. Xiucai admitted two, six in the Ming Law, twelve in the Ming Dynasty, twelve in the Ming Jing, six each in the Jinshi and Ming characters, and six in the family martial arts, a total of only fifty-three people were admitted. These fifty-three people are all momentary talents. Zhang Han was happy, so he personally set up a banquet in the palace to entertain these new scholars, and after the banquet, let everyone arrange flowers and wear red, and the drum music honor guard hugged out of the main gate of the palace, with the two Xiucai as the leader across the horse parade street, with an umbrella cover all the way back to the residence of the hall, in order to show glory.

On that day, the crowds crowded the streets. The new jinshi rode a high-headed horse, and wherever he went, there was thunderous cheers. The new recruits feel glorious, there is a feeling of not drinking and getting drunk, life is so proud, what more can the husband ask for!

Moreover, not only the people are willing to watch it, but also the dignitaries and nobles are vying to evaluate it. Many new jinshi were favored by them, and they achieved a good thing after the big Dengke and the small Dengke.

This is in line with the old saying, there is a golden house in the book, and there is Yan Ruyu in the book.
