Chapter Five Hundred and Fortieth Officials Education
A not too big exam, but it tore off the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty. Those so-called well-educated scholars and knowledgeable Confucian officials could not even explain the simplest national policy clearly. They wanted to count on these people to clarify Yu Nei.
, the difficulty of reviving China is really so difficult!
"Mr. Li, you are the head of a hundred officials. The Ministry of Personnel is in charge of the promotion and promotion inspection of all officials. Are you recommending this kind of Hutu officials to us? Can we govern the world by relying on them?"
Li Shanchang is sweating profusely. There is no need to say more about the matter. But why mention me as the head of the officials at this time? I am willing to give it to Zhang Ximeng!
I just ask for your majesty's permission. I am willing to abdicate in favor of someone worthy of my honour.
It's a pity that Li Shanchang didn't dare to say it, and Zhu Yuanzhang wouldn't let him go.
"The results of the assessment are out. Those unqualified officials will be expelled from the court immediately. How to deal with the rest, we will consider detailed measures."
Li Shanchang hurriedly agreed. It was another offending job, but he had no choice but to say goodbye and go ahead and do it.
Zhu Yuanzhang was still angry. He asked Zhu Sheng and Zhang Ximeng to stay and discuss the matter together.
Zhu Sheng's old face turned red. Although he passed the exam and agreed with Zhang Ximeng's ideas, he did not integrate this set of things deep into his bones.
When thinking about problems, you will inevitably be influenced by what you have learned in the past.
This thing is almost inevitable. He has lived for such a long time, and many things have become deeply ingrained and will never go away!
"I think I should ask Prime Minister Zhang to give lectures and teach all officials. Let the officials understand the national policies of the court and practice them as soon as possible. Otherwise, even if they wait for new people to enter the officialdom, they will not be immune to the influence of these old people."
Zhu Sheng paused, then suddenly said: "As for me, the old minister thinks that some old people can abdicate as soon as possible to make way for the next generation, so that their corpses will not be left to eat, which will affect the overall situation... The old minister is ashamed and is willing to take the lead and return to his hometown to study and cultivate the fields."
With that said, Zhu Sheng lifted up his robe and knelt on the ground.
Although he did not participate in the female precepts' cultivation, he did nothing in the end. He could not escape the charge of dereliction of duty, so he should resign and return to his hometown.
But Zhu Yuanzhang didn't want to let Zhu Sheng go.
"No matter what, Zhu Qing can't leave. There are not many old ministers in the first place. Where to go, we can't do without you to help the left." Zhu Yuanzhang persuaded Zhu Sheng to stay, but he also said: "There are indeed some people who have corpses and must be expelled from the court.
Tang. In the past, we did not have suitable officials, but now, with so many scholars, it should be enough."
Lao Zhu glanced at Zhang Ximeng and asked: "Sir, how many talents do we have available at the moment?"
After Zhang Ximeng thought for a while, he shook his head and said: "Lord, we started a large-scale education after crossing the river. We have successively trained schoolchildren. Until now, those who have fully received education are probably less than twenty years old. Most of them have just graduated and have little knowledge.
They are not sophisticated, and their ability to do things is still lacking. If you want to expect them to be effective, it will only take ten years."
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he was in a bad mood and said directly: "We can't afford to wait any longer. Let's open the Enke immediately... Tell me, anyone over fifteen years old can participate. The young talents in the school are indeed outstanding.
It can be lowered to thirteen years old. In short, we must recruit new people as soon as possible."
Zhu Yuanzhang's attitude was firm, and even Zhu Sheng agreed. Naturally, Zhang Ximeng would not say anything else.
But even so, it will take time for these young people to grow up.
It is conceivable that for a long time in the DPRK, there were still old people who had one foot in the new era and one foot struggling in the quagmire of the old era.
For these people, we must strictly supervise and educate them at the same time.
Of course, the more important thing is to let the unqualified ones go!
Li Shanchang first came to the Ministry of Rites. Not long ago, under Zhu Yuanzhang, the Minister of Hubu was unlucky all day long, mainly due to shortfalls and corruption. Lao Zhu almost killed several people.
Now it's the turn of the Ministry of Rites.
Not long ago, Qian Yongren was driven to Shandong because he opposed the establishment of Fudan Academy.
After Qian Yongren, there is Cui Liang, who is now responsible for the daily affairs of the Ministry of Rites.
He also participated in the revision of the women's ring.
At this point, Cui Liang knew that his feelings were irreversible, so he could only say: "Prime Minister Li, I am incompetent as a low-ranking official. It's just because I failed to write books and failed to understand what Prime Minister Zhang meant, so I had to resign and go home. I, I was indeed wronged! Nvjie
It’s a book that’s been around for a long time, so we can’t just do whatever we want!”
Li Shanchang snorted coldly. At this time, you still want me to speak for you?
And your problem is not just that you can’t repair your books!
"Cui Liang, you are in charge of the Ministry of Rites. Do you know how many people in the Ministry of Rites are unqualified this time?"
Cui Liang was stunned, and Li Shanchang simply said: "There are twenty-seven people in total, and you are the top of each department. You are really amazing!"
Cui Liang was shocked, "Why are there so many? Your Majesty, your answer is correct!"
Li Shanchang simply sneered, have you ever seen such a stupid thing?
"You are the Minister of Rites, if you don't even know the national policies of the Ming Dynasty, you should die! Are you quite happy? There are so many rubbish in the Ministry of Rites, how on earth did you become a minister?"
Cui Liang was stunned, and his old face couldn't help but turn red.
Li Shanchang did not listen to his nonsense and said directly: "You can go back to your hometown now and think it over for yourself. Don't be anxious. You have plenty of time. Think slowly!"
In this way, a minister was once again dismissed from office and returned to his hometown in disgrace.
This matter is a bit troublesome, because under normal circumstances, the Ministry of Personnel assessment determines the promotion and scheduling of officials. If the Ministry of Personnel feels that you are not good enough, you can be dismissed and return to your hometown, and you can get a salary for retirement.
After all, the Ministry of Personnel said that you are not suitable for this official position.
But Menxiasheng is different. It is aimed at the officials themselves. It is not a problem of official position, but a problem of insufficient basic qualifications.
In this way, the official clothes are taken off, and even the salary is gone.
Fortunately, after returning to my hometown, I still have a piece of land where I can make a living by plowing the fields. I don’t have to sacrifice myself for five buckets of rice.
You can go back to your hometown and become Tao Yuanming.
The Ministry of Rites, which is famous for its education, had its own minister, and almost thirty people were stripped of their official clothes... They still wanted to educate others, but they even failed the exam themselves. It was really embarrassing.
The level of shame is almost equivalent to being a monk for decades and suddenly having a son and a daughter.
The Ministry of Rites has become a laughing stock.
And there is a yamen, the level of shame is comparable to that of the Ministry of Rites.
The Hanlin Academy also found three unqualified ones.
Song Lian, a Hanlin scholar, was so angry that he almost fainted.
The Hanlin Academy, the place with the highest academic qualifications in the entire Ming Dynasty, also had trash who didn't know the national policy, and three of them suddenly appeared.
Song Lian felt like he was being hit hard one after another, and he wanted to die.
However, the Hanlin Academy was different from the Ministry of Rites. Although Song Lian was a bachelor in charge of the academy, other Hanlin officials did not obey what was said. Because of this, Song Lian was not implicated.
But Song Lian was so angry that even though he entered the Hanlin Academy, I didn't care much about it.
But it doesn't matter, I can prevent you from entering the Hanlin Academy!
Song Lian directly told others not to let in a lot of corrupt Confucians for the sake of the so-called contention of a hundred schools of thought, especially those Confucian scholars who refused to change the past and were unwilling to follow them, so they immediately drove them away!
Not only must they be expelled from the Hanlin Academy, but their teaching qualifications must also be taken away.
If you just mess with your brain, don't mess with the next generation.
Although the Hanlin Academy has no restrictions on Hanlin officials, the Hanlin Academy controls teachers all over the world.
The establishment of the school was sponsored by the Ministry of Rites, but all the teachers were under the Hanlin Academy... Song Lian simply asked for an order not only to assess officials, but also to include local teachers.
But we want to see how much these people know and whether they understand the national policy of the Ming Dynasty!
If teachers don't know it, don't expect them to teach students well.
In addition to these two yamen, people from the Imperial College, Zhan Shifu, and other yamen were deposed.
The most ridiculous thing was that in the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple, there were officials who used the wrong laws... Faced with such bastards, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't even bother to talk nonsense, and was directly demoted to a commoner and sent to his hometown.
Moreover, Zhu Yuanzhang also stipulated a special rule.
This kind of government officials' corpses being served without food is a pure waste of the country's salary.
Therefore, not only did I rush back home, I also had to recover my previous salary. It didn’t matter if I couldn’t pay it. Anyway, I would pay it back slowly in the remaining days.
There is no doubt that Lao Zhu is not greedy for this little money, he is really angry.
We won’t kill anyone, but we will make your life worse than death!
After taking this exam, it actually proves one thing: Talents have always been said to be rare.
Now that I think about it, the real meaning of this sentence is that there are too many mediocre people. Looking around, they are all useless snacks, so it is really hard to find talented people!
Zhu Yuanzhang also had to admit that it was not easy to change so many officials.
This time, more than 200 people were dismissed, and it was just an appetizer, not even a dinner.
Next, I need to ask my subordinates to evaluate all the officials.
And it requires not only examinations, but also education and training. Yes, officials also need to constantly improve.
Naturally, these matters have to be handed over to Zhang Ximeng and made him responsible. In this way, the civil service education will also fall on his head, and everyone will inevitably respect Zhang Ximeng as Teacher Zhang.
The changes in the sky have turned everything upside down and can be called drastic.
But in Suzhou, hundreds of miles away, the people felt a different situation.
A stone tablet inscribed with Huang Daopo's achievements was sent to Suzhou City and placed not far from the workshop.
Who dares to say that female workers only came out to work after Zhang Shicheng entered Suzhou? That is nonsense. At least when Huang Daopo was alive, many female workers from his hometown had gathered to weave and spin together.
And who says women can’t work in the textile industry? Huang Daopo not only taught weaving techniques, but also improved looms. The looms popular in Suzhou and Songjiang today are based on Huang Daopo’s improvements.
A stone tablet dispels most of the rumors.
When coming to Suzhou from the imperial palace for shopping, the first stop is Shen Rulan's workshop.
"Not bad, indeed good! Your silk weaving is done with great care. As expected, it will definitely be selected as the royal fabric this time!"
Shen Rulan and others took a long breath, and then said: "Finally, we can honor His Majesty. Let's see who dares to say that the silk we weave is unclean!"
At this time, news came that the silk and satin workshop of the Yang family, a big silk manufacturer, had been closed down!
It turns out that they paid for people to write articles saying that female workers were immoral. Interestingly, their family was sued by their female workers... It turns out that not being allowed to use female workers means that you are not allowed to use them, but I can use them as I like!
