Daming: I help my wife be the empress

Chapter 545 Chuanlu rolls his name and parades across the street, and the School of Political Affairs is rebuilt as an official

On the ninth day of March in the second year of Zhaowu, the last test of the imperial examination, the imperial examination, was held as scheduled.

After the test, the examiners corrected the papers at the court, and then Zhu Wei hand-picked a Jinshi from the top ten, that is, the number one scholar, the second place, and Tanhua.

That's right, there are only three first-class Jinshi.

Erjia is awarded "Jinshi background" by the emperor's order, and generally speaking, it has the largest number of Jinshi among the top three.

The top three will be awarded "from the same background as Jinshi", with a certain number of people.

In principle, the palace examination will not depose the tributes selected by the general examination, so this time Zhu Yuxi's first palace examination after ascending the throne, there are a total of 108 top three Jinshi.

While Aimee Zhu was reading the palace examination papers that the examiners had graded, a group of tributes were waiting in the square in front of Fengtian Palace.

Because it took a long time to mark the papers, these gongshi were not required to stand still, but allowed them to walk around and talk in a small area under the guard of the imperial guards.

At this time, many people couldn't help talking about the exam questions asked by the imperial examination.

"Mr. Fu'an, how do you feel about this palace test?" Huang Zongxi, who is also a member of Fushe, approached Yang Tingshu and chatted.

Yang Tingshu stroked his beard, but smiled wryly, and said: "The question 'How to make a country strong' is not a classic question, and it is too big, so I can only talk about it in general based on Confucian thoughts on governing the country.

If it was before, I might still have some confidence in this answer, but today it is obvious that the current situation intends to change the status quo of Confucianism being the only one.

With my answer, I am afraid that not only will I not be able to enter the Holy Eye, but I may also be disgusted by the Holy One. "

Huang Zongxi also showed a wry smile, and said, "It's better than being confused and not knowing where to start."

At this time Zhang Huangyan came over.

He and Huang Zongxi were barely fellow countrymen, and happened to hear their words, and said: "I also think that the exam questions are too big to describe in full, but I love military affairs all my life, so I wrote some simple opinions from the aspect of 'a strong army makes a strong country' .

Now that I think about it, I am afraid that the examiners will think it is belligerent, and my article is indeed a bit superficial, and I will probably fall into the top three. "

Yang Tingshu and Huang Zongxi didn't know how to comment for a while.

Because the argument of "emphasizing martial arts and military affairs" has never been appreciated by the imperial examination examiners of the Ming Dynasty, and even disgusted.It is really too risky for Zhang Huangyan to write like this in the palace test.

The three of them listened to the discussions of other people around them, and found that the vast majority of them were not satisfied with their palace examination essay.

In this way, the three of them felt a little more balanced--since everyone's essays in the palace examination were not very good, maybe the taller among the dwarves, his own essays could be favored by the Holy Majesty?
In this way, the tributes waited for more than an hour with apprehension, and the results of the palace examination finally came out.

The process of announcing the results of the palace examination is called the "Ceremony of Chuanlu", and it is very routine-the list of second-class personnel is announced first, then the list of first-class personnel is announced, and finally the list of top three is announced.

When the eunuch finished announcing the results of the palace examination, many people were quite surprised.

The most surprising one among them is Yang Tingshu, the freshly-produced No. [-] Scholar.

He thought that at most he would be in the second class, and he might even fall into the third class unfortunately, but Zhu Yuxi actually selected him as the champion.

Yang Tingshu was still dazed when other people around him cast envious glances.

Auntie Zhu didn't really appreciate Yang Tingshu's essays in the imperial examination. She also knew that Yang Tingshu was a relatively traditional scholar and a leader of Fushe, and to some extent belonged to a group she would suppress in the future.

However, Yang Tingshu is already 51 years old, even if he is given the champion, he will not be an official in the Ming Dynasty for many years, and his influence will be very limited.

Therefore, instead of giving the champion to other younger traditional scholars, she simply gave it to Yang Tingshu.

In the second place, Auntie Zhu rejected all opinions and chose Zhang Huangyan, who was ranked in the thirties in the examination results.

Tanhua is Wang Fuzhi who has tried more than a dozen people.

As for Huang Zongxi, this time he was just at the tail end of the second-tier Jinshi, and almost fell into the third-tier.

After the roll call in the Chuanlu Grand Ceremony, the Xinke Scholars paid a visit to Aimee Zhu together, and then paraded through the streets on horseback, accepting the onlookers and congratulations of the people in Nanjing, and feeling the glory of being named on the gold list.

After the parade, the imperial court will also give a banquet, also known as the Luming Banquet.

In addition, the imperial court will also build a memorial archway for Jinshi in the hometown of Jinshi...
A series of activities around Xinke Jinshi will last for several days.

Aimee Zhu didn't immediately change these things just because she wanted to promote new learning.Because in the future, those who succeed in new learning will also receive great glory.

No matter old or new, if you have achieved something in your studies and received the affirmation of the court, you should get relevant honors.Otherwise, why encourage people to learn from and serve the country?

···
Hall of Martial Arts.

Aunt Zhu is discussing with the cabinet ministers about the position arrangement for the new Jinshi.

"How is my court practice?" Aimee Zhu asked first.

Chief Assistant Yuan Jixian said: "According to the practice of our dynasty, a first-class Jinshi, without exception, will be selected into the Imperial Academy, promoted to Shujishi, and trained as a junchen and minister.

In addition, several people can also be selected from the second-class Jinshi to enter the Hanlin Academy.

Most of the second-class Jinshi will be sent to the six major yamen to watch politics;

After the expiration of the three-month to one-year period, the court official department will grant new positions to the Jinshi based on their performance during the period of observing politics.

Among them, those who perform well will generally be formally added to the yamen of the central government as officials of the sixth and seventh ranks.

Those who perform less well will go down to the local county magistrate or the second official of the state government, or they will go to other yamen to practice for the eighth and ninth rank officials before they are promoted. "

After finishing speaking, Yuan Jixian paused for a moment before asking: "Your Majesty, will you follow our court practice this time?"

Aunt Zhu shook her head directly, "I've heard a saying, 'Prime Ministers must rise from the state department, and strong generals must be sent to the ranks of the army'. Although the new subjects are all talented people, how can they be directly trained as junchen ministers and ministers?"
If you don't record local affairs, how do you know how the local government is governed?If you don't know, if you become a minister or prime minister in the future, wouldn't it be a group of people who don't understand anything and give orders blindly? "

After hearing this, Yuan Jixian and several other cabinet ministers couldn't help but look ugly.

Because this is how the important ministers of the Ming Dynasty were trained in the past.

On the contrary, these people, because they have been selected by Auntie Zhu personally after the war, they all have considerable experience in local governance.

For example, Yuan Jixian, Ma Shiying, Lu Zhenfei, etc. have all served as local governors, and they have a lot of experience in local governance, and it can even be said to be quite rich.

Therefore, they just looked ugly and didn't say anything.

Aimee Zhu pondered for a while, and said: "Yang Tingshu can enter the Imperial Academy as a good scholar, Zhang Huangyan seems to be quite interested in military affairs and has some talent, let him enter the Military Academy to observe politics.

As for Wang Fuzhi, he was originally an aide of Du Yinxi. Now that he is in the middle of the test, he was ordered to observe politics in the cabinet for three months, and then returned to Beizhili to serve as the county magistrate.

As for the other new subjects, they were sent to the Nanjing Military Academy to study for three months, and then they were sent to the local government to start with the second officials such as the county magistrate and Dian Shi. "

"Your Majesty, this is not an appropriate move." Aimee Zhu had just finished speaking, and Yuan Jixian objected anxiously.

"Oh, what's wrong?"

Yuan Jixian said: "As far as I know, the Nanjing Military Academy is similar to martial arts, and it has always been used to train surrendered generals and former lieutenant generals, how can new scholars be placed in it?
If this is the case, I am afraid that the Xinke Jinshi will feel ashamed and resentful. "

Huang Daozhou also stood up and said, "Your Majesty, after all, it is a place where generals study. It is really inappropriate to send new Jinshi there."

Subsequently, the remaining cabinet ministers also expressed their opposition one after another.

Aimee Zhu was not annoyed, in fact, when she brought up this matter, she never thought that the cabinet ministers would agree.This is done only to raise the latter idea.

"Since Zhu Qing does not agree to send new subjects to the Nanjing Military Academy, I will order the establishment of a Nanjing Political Science Institute, and then invite county magistrates, prefects and other local officials with outstanding political achievements, as well as outstanding officials in the central department to be lecturers. They go to class.

The semester is temporarily limited from March to one year, and an exam is held every three months. Only those who pass the exam can graduate from the School of Political Affairs, and then the Ministry of Officials will be awarded the local ninth-rank to seventh-rank official positions.So, it's okay, right? "
