Chapter 116: The reform of imperial examination system in Ming Dynasty! This egg is called Fatty! (4.6K request for moon)(1/3)

Before the Meridian Gate, Hongzhi Zhu Houzhao, who had come from the East Palace, had just recovered and subconsciously looked up.

When he saw Zhengde Zhu Houzhao, his pupils shrank and he took a few steps back.

Then, he was furious in an instant.

"Who are you? How dare you pretend to be me!"

Fourteen-year-old Hongzhi Zhu Houzhao raised her hand and pointed at the Meridian Gate Tower and shouted loudly.

This reminded him of the real and fake monkeys he heard from the storytellers on weekdays (Journey to the West was written in the Wanli period, but the storytelling was already available in the folk storytelling).

Zhengde Zhu Houzhao on the Meridian Gate Tower stood up and looked at the other self under the door, and said secretly.

"I am you, you are me."

One word came out.

All officials were confused, and Hongzhi Zhu Houzhao was even more overwhelmed. He gritted his teeth and quickly went up to the Mid-Gate Tower, staring at Zhengde and Zhu Hou for a close distance, but he could not find any problem at all.

After a moment of silence, he suddenly started to remove Zhengde and Zhu Houzhao's belt.

"What are you going to do?!"

Zhengde Zhu Houzhao was stunned and thought that he would not be as good as Long Yang when he was young!

And Long Yang himself, is this considered a mess of human ethics?

Instead, he thought that Zhengde Zhu Houzhao knew what Hongzhi Zhu Houzhao wanted to do and wanted to verify that the mole was put on.

"Okay, don't bother with this issue. You will understand after a while. The first thing at the moment is to kill our good uncle first!"

Before the immortal master left, he handed it over to Zhengde Zhu Houzhao a wind chime, and told him to hand it over to Hongzhi Zhu Houzhao.

Hongzhi Zhu Houzhao paused and said that he had another one of his own than he had verified. He really wanted to see his two uncles beheaded in two pieces.

After all, this is my dear uncle and second uncle.

"cut."

The two Zhu Houzhao fell down in unison.

……………………………………………………………………

Hongwu Time and Space, the main hall of Zuixian Tower.

On the podium, Ji Boying swept over Lao Zhu's group of emperor crown princes who were bowing their heads and pondering. He gave everyone a quarter of an hour to think about this problem on the panel rice paper.

Swish.

Two figures suddenly appeared next to the podium.

It was the two Zhu Houzhao who came from Hongzhi's time and space, and his eyes were filled with excitement.

"Sit back to your seat."

Emperor Chenghua Zhu Jianshen, the newly appointed squad leader of the second division squad, spoke as soon as he saw two Zhu Houzhao.

In the second training class, except for Zhu Qizhen, Zhu Qiyu and Zhu Zhanji, who had a very low presence, Emperor Chenghua Zhu Jianshen had the highest seniority.

Zhengde and Zhu Houzhao were naturally familiar with each other and greeted Grandpa Chenghua, who was two years younger than him.

Then he returned to his own "Guiyi" position.

Hongzhi and Zhu Houzhao were confused.

He was still happy last moment and looked at his uncle half crawling on the ground.

The next moment, he appeared in such a strange place, and at first glance, these people were all wearing dragon robes.

"Haosh, come here."

After a quarter of an hour of secret observation and humbly asking the emperor's grandfather Zhengtong Castle Sect, Emperor Hongzhi probably had figured out what was going on. While shocked, he was also sighing at the mystery of the divine way.

Hongzhi, Zhu Houzhao, who was confused, quickly arrived at the "Ren II" position designated by Zhu Youzhang and sat down.

Leaning on the table, burying his head slightly, looking around with his eyes, and finally falling on the line of rice paper on the panel.

The podium is behind the back with one hand and holding a ruler with the other.

Ji Boying swept over the crown princes of the emperor.

"Who will tell me what is the core of implementing the imperial examination system since the Sui and Tang Dynasties? And why should the imperial examination system be implemented?"

One word came out.

I have become accustomed to the old rules in the classroom. Whether I know or not, the eyes of most emperors and crown princesses fell on the academic master Abiao as soon as possible.

But this time, before Abiao could speak, the young Zhu Houcong had already taken the lead in attacking.

"The imperial examination is implemented to select talents."

After saying that, the young man Zhu Houcan was full of confidence, and he was very satisfied with his answer.

The immortal Jiajing looked at the young self and the others, including Lao Zhu, Zhu Di, A Biao and others, nodded secretly without objection.

This question is actually not difficult to answer. Anyone who chooses to come out of the audience can answer this answer.

"wrong."

A word sounded faintly.

The young man Zhu Hou was stunned, and the other emperors were also stunned.

Wrong? Where was it wrong?

Is it not to implement the imperial examinations to select talents? Or else?

“Or the answer is too superficial.”

"However, the spirit of being brave enough to answer questions in the first class is still worthy of praise. The students in the second phase should learn more from Guiyi."

Ji Boying gave the young man Zhu Houcan a positive look and then continued.

"The core of implementing the imperial examination system lies in the appointment and removal of civil servants, in avoiding hereditary, and in allowing lower-class people to enter the temple continuously, in order to impact the inherent layout of the temple, avoid those in power in the temple building a clan, and thus protect the imperial power."

One word came out.

The crown princes of the emperor all lit up their eyes. The imperial examinations could actually protect the imperial power. They didn't think about this carefully in the past.

They are not fools, so after thinking about this sentence, they will naturally understand the meaning of the Tao.

Especially the new students in the second training class, such as Emperor Chenghua, Emperor Hongzhi, Emperor Zhengde, Emperor Jiajing and others, were shocked.

This was the first time they listened to Ji Boying's lectures. They originally just listened with respect to the immortal masters, and felt that this should be very similar to those old masters' lectures and did not have any hope.

But at this moment, they suddenly woke up.

The immortal master is completely different from those old masters!

Those old masters taught the emperors how to be a good emperor who satisfies civil officials according to the rules they prescribed.

What the immortal master taught was a serious way to reform and strengthen the country, and every sentence pointed directly at the core of the system!

In an instant, they all sat up straight naturally and listened to the teachings of the immortal master.

"very good."

Ji Boying could clearly see that as he said this, the eyes of these emperors and crown princes changed.

This shows that the introduction thrown has the effect it deserves.

Next, we will get some real information.

"Now, let's quickly look at the way we select talents in all dynasties."

"Before the pre-Qin period, the descendants of the descendants of the descendants of the descendants of the descendants of the descendants of the descendants of the descendants of the descendants of the descendants of the descendants of the descendants of the descendants of the descendants of the descendants of the descendants of the descendants of the founders of the descendants of the founders of the founders of the founders of the founders of the founders of the founders of the founders of the founders of the founders of the founders of

"The Qin army was awarded the title of honor, and the disciples raised the soldiers."

"The Han Dynasty's recommendations, enlistment and promotion, and the system of the nine ranks of Wei and Jin Dynasties."

"In the future, the imperial examinations of the Sui and Tang Dynasties began, and were passed down to the Tang, Song, Yuan and Ming Dynasties, and have been passed down to this day."

Everyone was listening very seriously, for fear of missing a few words from the immortal master.

At this point, Ji Boying paused slightly.

"I want to emphasize one thing, and you must remember it."

"There is no problem with the imperial examination system itself. What we need to change is not the imperial examination system, but the content of the system provisions."

“For example, the scope of the test questions.”

When he said this, Ji Boying looked at Lao Zhu, and Lao Zhu's heart was filled with a thrill.

‘It must be that our ancestral system is coming again.’

As soon as Lao Zhu thought about it, Ji Boying's voice sounded.

"You must never use the ancestral system to limit the test questions."

When Hongwu opened the imperial examination and selected scholars, Lao Zhu decided to set the ancestral system. All the imperial examination questions must be taken from the Four Books and Five Classics.

Later generations said that the eight-legged essay imprisoned the thinking of the times, but in fact, the eight-legged essay was essentially just an examination style, and it could not be so awesome to imprison the thinking. What really imprisoned the thinking was the ‘reference textbook’.
