Chapter 1350 Blizzard
The Ming Shu Department, which is a calligraphy competition, is usually selected from dozens of people and awarded official positions under the ninth rank.
What is the effect of calligraphy in governing the country?
In fact, the answer lies in promotional education. Let the tribute scholars who have passed the Ming Shu subject temporarily take over the grassroots education rights of dozens of counties by taking the position of the ninth rank of the county as a teacher.
If you write well, you must work hard to study before you can improve.
However, these people didn't learn the Four Books and Five Classics very well, and they couldn't squeeze into the single-plank bridge of the Jinshi class.
To put it bluntly, what Li Zhongyi wants is a scholar who doesn’t read books to death!
Although this sentence is very difficult to pronounce, the logic is clear: the better you read the Four Books and Five Classics, the easier it is to go to the wrong path of respecting Confucianism.
The law subject is a legal exam. There is nothing to say. As long as you can answer ninety of the 100 questions correctly, you can get to the top.
In the Ming Cunning Department, there were only 30 candidates participating in the exam. Naturally, Li Zhongyi could not give up any of them, and he was the first to be a full-time student.
As a result, on the day when the Jinshi exam was completed, the list of Mingfa, Mingshu, Mingsuan and other subjects had been announced.
In the provincial examination of miscellaneous studies, the objective fact that almost all the staff were on the list was no less than dropping a bombshell, which immediately shocked all the scholars of the powerful Han Dynasty!
Only 100 tribute scholars were selected for the Jinshi exam. Almost all the hundreds of people who took the miscellaneous subject exams were not particularly lucky, and almost all of them were in high school, with a rate of more than 90%.
For a moment, the entire Kaifeng City was full of discussion, especially the scholars who had failed to get a chance to try for a long time, and were eager to try.
Everything has its advantages and disadvantages!
The wealthy families who have maintained their educational advantages in the field of the Four Books and Five Classics for a long time hate the high ranking of miscellaneous subjects.
After all, the right to education in the Jinshi subject is firmly in the hands of the wealthy families. Even if the people who are on the Jinshi subject are not their tribe, they are their students.
Li Zhongyi deliberately increased the list of the miscellaneous technicians, which was equivalent to sprinkling salt on the wounds of aristocratic families or great scholars.
For a time, various memorials with excessively high rates of miscellaneous subjects flew into the Yintai Division like snowflakes, and then flew to Li Zhongyi's desk.
Li Zhongyi looked at the mountain of opposition memorials on the desk, couldn't help but smile coldly, and then ordered: "Any memorial of this type, after writing the abbreviation, I don't have to take it to me to read it, just archive it and not post it."
The Khitans were so powerful that Li Zhongyi dared to pull his teeth out of the tiger's mouth and forced himself to retrieve the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun. What's the terrible thing about the memorials of these scholars?
If it were in the past, when Tongjin Bank and Taiwan Department was still under the jurisdiction of the Political Affairs Hall, so many opposition memorials were handed over, the drooling of the flood would be enough to drown people.
However, after Tongjinyin Yintai Department changed to Li Zhongyi's direct subordinate, the cabinet could only handle the memorials transferred by the inner study room, but could not see the memorials that Li Zhongyi deliberately kept Zhong and refused to post.
To put it bluntly, Li Zhongyi didn't want to show the memorial to the cabinet, and even if the cabinet's ministers knew the content, they could not handle it.
Therefore, objectively speaking, Tongjinyin and Taiwan Department directly belonged to the emperor actually greatly enhanced the influence of imperial power!
Li Zhongyi's intentional ignorance angered many straightforward officials. They kept giving memorials and forced Li Zhongyi to express his attitude.
With Li Zhongyi's temper, the more fierce the ministers resisted, the more he would ignore it. Whose patience is enough?
Some officials gave several memorials in succession, but there was no reply, so they simply abandoned their official position and stopped doing it.
People who watched the fun thought Li Zhongyi was forced into a corner, but unexpectedly, Li Zhongyi didn't care about those who abandoned their official position at all.
Since he didn't want to be an official, that's great. In addition to the actual lack of points in the six ministries, Li Zhongyi simply abolished those inexplicable redundant officials.
The result is that if you abandon an official position today, Li Zhongyi just pretends that he hasn't seen it. Even if the cabinet submits a memorial request to find someone to fill the gap, Li Zhongyi still ignores it.
Damn, it’s hard to find a three-legged toad. Are you afraid that someone who wants to be an official can’t find it?
In the cabinet, the four ministers also have four opinions, and they cannot be unified!
Kong Kun is naturally on the side of the Jinshi University, while Liu Jinshan supports the widespread admission of miscellaneous subjects, while Li Qiong and Zhe have never clearly stated their attitude from Ruan Ze to the end.
"Gong Gong Li, how did this happen in all dynasties?" Kong Kun wanted to gain Li Qiong's support, so he simply put down his aura of a great scholar and took the initiative to talk to Li Qiong.
Li Qiong took a sip of tea and said slowly: "Kong Chanxiang, was your position of Chanxiang given by the emperor or was it given by those so-called great scholars?"
"This...this..." Kong Kun was speechless for a moment. If he hadn't defected to Li Zhongyi early and stood in the right team, how could he have the power today?
"Well, Kong Chanxiang, I'll ask you again, is the emperor who wins the world by relying on the soldiers of the three armies or those great scholars?"
"Oh, I can't answer it, right? Then I have another question. The emperor has taught hundreds of officials who are in miscellaneous subjects. Will they be grateful to the emperor or those so-called scholars who abandoned their posts to fight against them?"
"Kong Chanxiang, the emperor once said that his butt determines his head. Then the question is, are you planning to sit on the side of the emperor, or do you want to be completely enemies with the emperor?"
Li Qiong asked three questions in a row, but it made Kong Kun sweat and completely lost his usual calmness and calmness.
Li Qiong put down the teacup, smiled slightly, and said, "If you ask me about my opinion, hehe, say something heart-wrenching, I might do things against the emperor's will, after all, that is a harmless matter. However, in the face of major issues, I will definitely stand on the side of the emperor!"
"Brother Kong, I have lived a long life, how old are you, but I have something to advise you. So far, anyone who is free from the emperor will never have any good results in the future!" Li Qiong sighed heavily, "After you leave this door, be sure to look to the right, and you will understand everything."
Kong Kun walked out of Li Qiong's door with his mind and subconsciously looked to the right. He saw a team of guards armed to his teeth, holding a large sun, like a javelin, poking firmly under the wall.
Almost in an instant, Kong Kun understood it instantly. He was secretly upset. Isn’t it just that the regime came out of the gun?
Among the scholars all over the world, the lucky ones who can pass the Jinshi exam are the few.
Li Zhongyi increased the ranking of miscellaneous subjects, which was equivalent to expanding the scale of scholars entering the career of officials. Any scholar with a skill will naturally be more happy than worry!
On the contrary, Li Zhongyi offended only a few major families who monopolized the education rights of the Four Books and Five Classics, such as children of Confucianism or families of officials and gentry.
"Thank you, Mr. Li, for your advice, I appreciate it!" Kong Kun turned around suddenly and bowed respectfully to the ground when he saw Li Qiong again.
