Chapter five hundred and ninety-two: the first hurdle

 Everyone looked at the chief leader of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Zuodu Yushi Chen Yi, and saw that his face was calm, as if he was not worried about this matter at all.

On the other hand, Xiao Tan, a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, was on the side and his face was severely twitched.

At the same time, Yu Qian also answered Wang Wen's question, saying.

"The initial plan of the Ministry of War is to select capable people from the Hanlin Academy and the scholars who will take the mid-term exam next spring and send them to the local areas, and the local yamen will coordinate with them to conduct an inventory of the military settlements."

It should be said that after experiencing and talking with Uncle Hu Dazong, Yu Qian did become a lot softer, because immediately after, he spoke.

"Of course, this matter still requires the full assistance of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. Only when the Ministry of Civil Affairs selects capable people can the Ministry of War send errands to them."

The implication is that the Ministry of War has no intention of taking the opportunity to erode the authority of the Ministry of Personnel. The specific candidates are still selected and appointed by the Ministry of Personnel, and the Ministry of War only wants the final result.

Wang Wen seemed a little surprised by Qian's attitude, but thinking about what he had been busy with recently, it was not so strange.

After all, people always change.

Although he didn't want to admit it, Mr. Wang still had to admit that Yu Qian looked much more pleasing to the eye.

However, he still frowned, pondered for a moment, and said.

"Yu Shaobao, I know the determination of the Ministry of War to clean up the military settlements this time, and I also know the huge number of manpower required to clean up the military settlements. However, the Ministry of Civil Affairs has its own rules."

As he spoke, Wang Wen glanced at Xiao Tan next to him and said.

"Let's talk about the Hanlin Academy first. Most of the scholars who can enter the Hanlin Academy are first-class Jinshis. They are shujishi. They are awarded the title of seventh-rank Hanlin editor or editor from the sixth-rank Hanlin. Nowadays, the shujishi in the Hanlin Academy are almost the same.

There are only a dozen of them. If we transfer them, the Imperial Academy will basically be empty."

"What's more, the Shujishi will be disbanded after the new year. I'm afraid it won't be appropriate to send them to the Metropolitan Procuratorate at this time."

"Furthermore, the profession of speech has always been very demanding and cannot be granted lightly. Even those who are new scholars after observing politics in various ministries must pass the assessment again before they can be selected for the award."

"But now, the Ministry of War is so urgent. Could it be that we should skip the political affairs and directly grant the post of science and education? If so, what will happen if trouble occurs?"

At this point, Wang Wen paused for a moment, as if he felt that what he said was too straightforward, which was a bit refuting Yu Qian's face. It was rare that he also spoke a little more tactfully, and said.

"Yu Shaobao, reorganizing the military camp is a major matter. If these new scholars disrupt the place because they have no experience, it will actually be a trouble for the advancement of the entire military camp. Therefore, I am afraid this matter needs to be carefully considered."

The imperial examinations of the Ming Dynasty were divided into top three Jinshi. Different scores determined different starting points.

Generally speaking, the first three people can enter the Hanlin Academy to become Shujishi, observe the government for three years, and after passing the examination, they can stay in the Hanlin Academy as close ministers of the emperor, and then move to the cabinet department, taking the path of Qingliu.

As for the second class, generally speaking, the number of people varies. Sometimes there are forty or fifty people when there are few, and over one hundred when there are many.

If there are particularly outstanding people in this group, one or two, they can also be specially approved to enter the Hanlin Academy, but most of them will stay in the academy for half a year to observe government affairs, and are called Jinshi Observers of Administration.

After half a year, based on daily performance and final assessment, the director of the six departments or the deputy position of each temple supervisor will be selected and awarded.

Those who are outstanding among them will be qualified to enter the Metropolitan Procuratorate and be awarded the title of Censor or Shizhong.

However, this number of people basically does not exceed ten people at a time.

As for the fellow Jinshi in the top three, they can be selected and awarded official positions directly without observing the government, but they will basically not stay in the capital. Most of them started as magistrates. There are a few who are outstanding or well-connected. If there are vacancies in the civil service department, they may be able to

Get a government-level assistant official such as an official.

According to Yu Qian's intention, he planned to recruit people from Shujishi first, and then select and appoint censors from among Xinke Jinshi.

As Wang Wen said, doing so is risky.

Shujishi has always been a noble position. If they successfully pass the examination and stay in the Hanlin Academy, they will be awarded either the seventh-grade editor or the sixth-grade editor.

No matter in terms of status or status, he is a bit higher than the censor.

As a result, now, Yu Qian forcefully wants to intercept people from the Hanlin Academy. This is a sinner's business.

People have been working hard for a year, two or even three years in the Hanlin Academy, not just to end up on the same starting line as those who have only watched politics for half a year and whose imperial examination results are not as good as their own.

In addition, there are also new scholars.

In addition to being awarded local officials by the top three, the principle of Jinshi for the second and first grade is to observe the political affairs. If they are directly selected as censors, these young people who have just entered the officialdom will be in trouble if they cause any trouble.

Who will be responsible?

You know, the Ministry of War wants people, but these officials need to be selected and appointed by the Ministry of Personnel. In other words, whether they offend someone or take the blame for trouble in the end, it all belongs to the Ministry of Personnel.

Therefore, Wang Wen was naturally unwilling to do so in this matter.

Like him, there was Xiao Tan, a Hanlin scholar.

As the current head of the Hanlin Academy, Xiao Xueshi is actually very depressed. You must know that the Hanlin Academy is a Qingshui yamen, and the reason why it is valued is because it can accumulate connections.

Basically, those who go out from the Hanlin Academy will eventually have a place in the court, and at the end they can become third-rank officials. This kind of investment in the future is extremely useful in the officialdom that pays attention to relationships.

Chen Xun, who did not see the Ministry of Works, was ranked last among the six departments, but if he wanted to, could he find a group of disciples who were old friends?

This is the network of contacts accumulated over the years.

Xiao Tan was transferred from the Imperial Academy to the Hanlin Academy for a short period of time. He was also a year younger. However, due to various reasons, he was never able to establish his real power in the Hanlin Academy, let alone the imperial court.

.

He pointed out that this spring, there would be some good seedlings to add a little more fresh blood to the Hanlin Academy. But if Yu Qian did this, let alone adding a few more, Xiao Tan felt that they might not be able to do it, let alone add a few more.

Can be saved.

There is also the current group of concubines in the Hanlin Academy.

Xiao Fan admitted that he wanted to send these people away, but not in this way.

If after the school is disbanded, these people fail the examination and are selected to be awarded the science degree, that is a normal transfer.

However, it is not yet time to close the hall, so Yu Qian wants to transfer people, which is actually a taboo.

Again, these shuji scholars have worked hard for two or three years, not just to be on the same starting line as those second-class Jinshi who have only been observing politics for half a year and have not done well in the imperial examination.

This method of selecting and awarding actually lowers the future prospects of Shuji scholars.

Xiao Tan didn't really care what happened to the common people in the Hanlin Academy, but he was worried that if this kind of thing started, it would become a common practice in the future.

If in the future, whenever the imperial court is short of people, the Imperial Academy will come to look for them, then who can bear this?

And, more importantly, although there is no rise or fall in rank from being a concubine to being a censor, in the eyes of the court officials, there is no doubt that he has lowered his status.

Therefore, even if it was purely out of his duties as a Hanlin scholar, Xiao Ban had to step in to stop it.

Therefore, after Wang Wen, Xiao Tan also immediately came out to echo, saying.

"Yes, the Hanlin Academy has transferred its academic disciplines, and it is such a large-scale transfer. If it is done rashly, I am afraid that there will be discussions among the government and the public. Moreover, as there are so-called specializations in the arts, not everyone in the Hanlin Academy is suitable for the transfer of academic disciplines.

Tao, so this matter still needs to be carefully considered."
