[End of the God Station] Remind book friends to keep in mind: Website URL: www.xinwanben.com Remember in a second, never lose it!
Wang Shouren and the others looked at their mentor with light in their eyes.
Reform the imperial examinations.
This is a millennium plan.
But now, the mentor gave a stage, and all these young people stood in the center of the stage. The mentor gave them a pen and a blank paper for them to write freely on the white paper. splash ink.
In their bones, they are still scholars in essence.
Although the knowledge of Confucius was distorted, it became the tool of the gentry in later generations.
But it has to be said that the saint's ideal of governing the country and the world is still rooted in the hearts of countless people.
Of course there are despicable people who cover up their cowardice by saying that a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, and some people use the immutability of ancestors to consolidate their own interests.
However, there are still a group of scholar-bureaucrats who are worried about the world's worries first and enjoy the world's joys later.
That's right...Fang Jifan is the latter.
His nobility has inspired generations of disciples.
Wang Shouren looked deeply at his mentor, and at this moment, there was a bit of turmoil on his face.
Tang Yin concealed his inner excitement.
Jiang Chen and Liu Wenshan were silent, but their chests heaved violently.
Only Ouyang Zhi, with a peaceful face and calm eyes like an ancient well, is calm and relaxed.
Fang Jifan waved: "Do it well!"
Work hard, these light three words.
The eye circles of the four disciples were all red.
What a trust.
The mentor not only precepts and deeds, but also his own confidant. The trust he entrusts is the lifelong wealth of these disciples.
Ouyang Zhi started to take the lead, and then the disciples began to discuss.
In the end, the plan came out. The imperial examinations are good, and the new system needs to fully absorb the essence of the new system and discard the chaff.
For example, conduct a unified examination and use a strict system to ensure the smoothness of the examination.
at the same time……
One by one, the detailed rules were drawn up.
After more than half a month, a draft was formed.
When Ouyang Zhi sent the draft to Fang Jifan, Fang Jifan felt a little hurt when he saw his haggard appearance. All these disciples belonged to the ox, and Fang Jifan liked hardworking people. Those who eat too much and are lazy are not worthy of being their own disciples.
"Master, please take a look."
Fang Jifan didn't read it, and put it away: "Don't read it, I'll go find Mr. Liu and see if he has any suggestions."
Liu Gongnai is the chief assistant of the cabinet, so his suggestion still needs to be accepted.
Ouyang Zhi was silent for a moment, but before he could be silent, Fang Jifan had already taken the charter and ran away quickly.
Looking at his teacher's back, Ouyang Zhicai said: "Men... didn't you say that after drawing up the draft, your teacher will discuss it with us?"
"..."
Ouyang Zhi looked at the emptiness in the hall and was stunned.
……………
Fang Jifan arrived at the cabinet excitedly.
When those Zhongshu Sheren and scribes saw Qi Guogong coming, their expressions were a little subtle, Fang Jifan said: "Liu Gong, where is Liu Gong?"
In Liu Jian's public room, a head poked out. This was Liu Jian's embarrassed face. He coughed: "Mr. Qi...don't shout, come here."
Fang Jifan stepped forward boldly: "Mr. Liu, I am looking forward to enlighten you on something."
With that said, he entered the public room.
Liu Jian was a little anxious, and actually closed the door tightly by himself, deliberately at the door, with his ear against the door, and after confirming that there were no ears on the partition wall, he said softly: "What are you doing here, with such a big fanfare, I don't know, I thought the old man was with you What is there?"
Fang Jifan was speechless, how do you feel, seeing Liu Jian now is like a meeting of secret agents.
Fang Jifan said: "something..."
Liu Jian smiled wryly and stroked his beard: "Those disciples of yours don't have the king's law anymore. They beat people outside the Meridian Gate. That Wu Yan hasn't come down to the ground yet. It's horrible. Now he's a mourner, a scholar of the Manchu Dynasty. Lin Li is full of resentment, you... are too unruly."
Fang Jifan blinked innocently: "Grand Liu, I didn't hit you, so what does it have to do with me? Besides, isn't there an old saying that a slap doesn't go well?"
Liu Jian: "..."
In fact...he was just complaining, His Majesty's attitude was already obvious, let the matter be put to rest, the palace doesn't care, and Liu Jian doesn't want to care about it, even if he wants to care about it, Liu Jie is still in Golden Island.
He sat down, repeated a few words, and glared at Fang Jifan: "Finally, what's the matter?"
Fang Jifan said with a smile: "Here is a charter for the new policy, which is about the method of selecting officials in Tongzhou and Baoding Prefecture..." Fang Jifan lowered his voice: "Your Majesty explained it. Mr. Liu is mature and prudent. I don't know what to say."
Liu Jian's face changed: "Why did you find the cabinet?"
"What?" Fang Jifan was at a loss.
"Are you going to kill the old man?" Liu Jian said angrily, "For such a thing, why don't you sneak up to the mansion, come in through the back door, and talk to the old man?"
Fang Jifan: "..."
Hearing the method of selecting officials, he came to ask for his own opinion. In addition, Fang Jifan came to the cabinet with such great fanfare. In the future, the method of selecting officials will be announced to the public and people will think of him. Harmful.
Liu Jian has nothing to look forward to in this life
First, he is loved by Emperor Hongzhi, and he is really devoted to Emperor Hongzhi. In addition, his son is in Huangjinzhou, hanging out with the people of Xishan, trying to fight for his future. Although Liu Jian's ass is not enough to sit in Xishan Here, at least, it can be impartial.
He said angrily: "Take the old man to have a look."
Fang Jifan sent the charter to Liu Jian.
Liu Jian took it and looked at it carefully.
Fang Jifan sat aside, bored, and said: "I haven't even had a sip of tea, I'll ask someone to pour tea." Then he got up and wanted to go out.
Liu Jian said sharply: "Come back, don't open the door, do you still think others don't know your method of selecting officials for this, so ask me for advice?"
Fang Jifan rolled his eyes and sat back down again.
Liu Jian continued to look at it, but just by looking at it, he was terrified.
Although the mode of the imperial examination is still used, people come to take the examination for officials, but the professionalism has become stronger. For example, the officials in the punishment room not only have to take the literary examination, but also the martial arts examination. They need to know the basics of riding and shooting, but... I heard that the prison guards in Baoding Prefecture have begun to popularize horseback riding and archery, which is the need for hunting fugitives. In addition, household housing requires arithmetic and basic literature tests.
This literary examination is naturally the Four Books and Five Classics, which is biased towards new learning.
others……
"Hey..." After Liu Jian finished reading everything, he let out a long sigh: "The world has changed, and the old man will not be able to keep up."
Fang Jifan said with a smile: "What do you think?"
Liu Jian said: "Most of them, the old man can't understand. What kind of talents are needed, the old man really doesn't know much, but there is one thing missing here."
"Yeah?" Fang Jifan said, "What's missing, let me see."
Liu Jian glared at Fang Jifan: "You haven't seen it yet?"
Fang Jifan blushed: "Actually, I have seen it, don't get me wrong."
"In this draft, the first article is wrong."
Fang Jifan looked confused: "Please enlighten me."
Liu Jian pointed to the grass chapter: "The first article should be that all officials, once admitted, shall not be dismissed unless they violate the laws of the country."
"What?" Fang Jifan was stunned: "This...why?"
Not to be dismissed, isn't this just eating rice?
Fang Jifan is a person holding a golden rice bowl, but what he hates the most is that other people hold an iron rice bowl, pluck their own wool, enter the public school, and want to eat a lifetime of idle food, do you think you are me, Fang Jifan?
Liu Jian looked at Fang Jifan with a smile: "Without this first article, your detailed chapter is useless no matter how well it is drawn up."
Seeing Fang Jifan's confused look.
Liu Jian said patiently: "First of all, if there is no absolute guarantee, who is willing to take the exam and enter the Gongmen for the rest of his life? Although it is a great initiative for you to be promoted and selected in the future after entering the Gongmen, but in In the world, there are only a small number of people who can be selected as officials. Therefore, only enough protection can make people feel at ease. In the government, "
Fang Jifan nodded half-understood, Fang Jifan really didn't understand this aspect.
"And this second is the most important thing. The old man came to ask you, after the officials have finally passed the exam, they will be on duty in the public office. Their future is in the hands of the superior. Therefore, they will flatter the superior, but What if even the power to dismiss is in Shangguan's hands? If so, then...won't all the officials in this place become Shangguan's private slaves?"
Fang Jifan seemed to understand, he thought for a while: "The merit test is decided by the superior. This is a personnel right. Dismissal is also a personnel right. These two personnel rights are divided into two. Can't they depose those they hate?"
Liu Jian laughed: "Yes, for officials, there are two things that control them. One is financial power, who pays the salary. The other is official affairs, that is, who gives them jobs. If these , are all in the hands of the parents and officials, so it is terrible, they can depose whoever they want, recommend whoever they want, and they can make you ascend to the sky and rise to the top, and they can also make you lose your job. , follow your hunger, then think about it, this parent officer, has not really become the parents of these officials, and the officials, have not all become the private slaves of the parent officials? Once all these are in your hands, these What is the difference between a parent official and a local emperor? What if the local parent official wants to fight against the imperial court? What if he deceives the imperial court? What if he is obedient and obedient?"
"Guaranteeing that officials will not be dismissed will certainly cause other problems, but it is the fundamental solution to this problem. Whom the parental officer wants to recommend, but the people he can recommend, after all, are very few. Those who are favored by him may have There are ten people, there are a hundred people, no matter how many there are, there will be no more. The other officials did not receive his favor. Their rice bowls were guaranteed by the imperial court. Gongmen, they know everything about the affairs of the Gongmen. If their parents and officials want to deceive the court, or even fight against the court, are they willing to follow their parents and officials to work for tigers? No, on the contrary, the vast majority of officials are The fundamental reason for checking and balancing the upper officials is because they are not afraid of losing their jobs, so they dare to criticize some of the evil policies of their parents, even if they are not appreciated by their parents, they can still be their own poor and not be swayed by their parents."
Liu Jian looked at Fang Jifan with a smile: "First, add this, this method of selecting officials can only be implemented, and countless officials who have been admitted will have a heart of approval for your method of selecting officials. Tens of thousands of officials will defend your method of selecting officials. If not, the method of selecting officials is just a decoration. If even the officials you choose yourself are indifferent to your laws, then... This new system is useless.”
Liu Jian paused and sighed: "Just like the imperial examination, the world
Only those scholars who benefit from the imperial examination system will voluntarily maintain it. If anyone cheats in the imperial examination, or if they tamper with the imperial examination, even if it is the emperor or an old man, he will definitely not dare to have this idea. Do you know why? "
Fang Jifan listened carefully, feeling terrified.
This is the truth. After the imperial examination appeared, it became more and more standardized. In the Song Dynasty and the present, this imperial examination has become an iron law that no one can touch. Emperor Chenghua likes a person and never dares to let him Go to the imperial examination, and then hand-picked him as a Jinshi, even he didn't even want to admit his own son. But never had the idea of touching the imperial examination.
The reason is that there are tens of thousands of scholars who are maintaining the imperial examination system, and any offense to the imperial examination will lead to chaos in the world.
A new system, if there are no beneficiaries, no one will consciously maintain it, or if it cannot protect their fundamental interests, or even if there is not enough checks and balances in this system, or soon because no one is willing to maintain it, In the end the smoke cleared. Either way, it would cause a certain party to have too much power, leading to an imbalance, and eventually, the situation of a feudal town.
Fang Jifan nodded again and again: "I'll change, I'll change, this is the first article, just write this."
