At the beginning of the founding of the People’s Republic of China, Su Yonglin’s most important thing was to sort out the politics so that the new imperial government agencies could operate normally without chaos.
Everyone agrees on this point.
On the third day after the founding of the great empire, Shang Kongzheng, the ritual department of the court, proposed to Su Yonglin to formally start a business.
There is no reason and necessity for Su Yonglin to reject this suggestion. It is indeed a symbol of the empire’s formal establishment of its dominant position in the Central Plains.
I don’t know how many people are waiting for the first imperial examination.
Su Yonglin’s court agreed to this request and announced that the first imperial examination of the empire was about to officially begin in the spring and March of the second year of Hongwu.
But the imperial examination system Su Yonglin began to work.
He gave a message to the department of rites.
[I repeatedly asked the ministers to learn that the golden example followed the example of the Song and Song imperial examinations. Since Wang Anshi changed, Anshi’s criminal record has been weightlifting and poetry has been discussed. After Anshi, the imperial examinations have re-emphasized righteousness, but I have failed to govern the country through righteousness.
My Anshi Institute is not conducive to the long-term stability of the country. Therefore, it is indispensable to oust a big country in terms of righteousness, strategy, poetry and arithmetic. Therefore, it is impossible to accept a great imperial examination because it is just a matter of justice. 】
Su Yonglin’s will has caused a stir.
Kong Zheng rubbed his temples with a bitter face and a head as big as a bucket.
He had long expected that Su Yonglin would definitely insist on the imperial examination system in order to change the imperial examination beyond recognition, but in order to keep his position and protect the interests of Beikong, he chose the default ending.
He Su Yonglin will be a little gentler. Don’t let him be a man by other methods as soon as he comes. But I never thought that Su Yonglin would still be so direct, and the king would blow him up.
Looking at Su Yonglin, he means that he will abolish Wang Anshi’s coming to the imperial examination, emphasizing righteousness over poetry and fu, abolishing this reform measure and pulling back the former imperial examination model.
He not only wants to increase the proportion of poetry and fu strategy, but also bring the rules of taking scholars back to the Tang Dynasty and the early Song Dynasty. Maybe he will add some strange things to the imperial examination.
To be honest, every change must have supporters and opponents, and every change, whether for the good or the bad, has been stopped.
When Wang Anshi reformed, the resistance was also very great, but the imperial examination reform was passed.
At that time, no one knew whether it was good or bad, but the scholars who had done what was done could forcibly cooperate with the abandonment of poetry and fu and pursue the Confucian classics, and began to shake their heads and read the poor classics.
It can be said that the imperial examination system in Yuan and Qing Dynasties gradually became rigid, and this great god contributed a lot to this move.
However, now that everyone abides by the rules, you have to change the rules as soon as you come. Although it’s a new era and a new atmosphere, it won’t become so big. Let’s be prepared, right?
So Kong Zheng asked Su Yonglin to postpone the implementation of this rule on behalf of the Ritual Table.
Because he knew that he couldn’t stop Su Yonglin, he tried to play the emotional card to tell the imperial examiners that they had failed in the imperial examination, and that they had worked hard for more than ten years through the imperial examination country. As a result, the court suddenly changed the examination subjects.
Scholars will not accept it and will go crazy.
Therefore, he asked Su Yonglin whether he could postpone the implementation of this strategy for three years. This time, the imperial examination will be taken according to the original rules, and then according to the new rules, so that everyone can accept it.
Su Yonglin looked at Kong Zheng’s performance table and praised him for retreating because of this strategy, which not only took care of Su Yonglin’s ideas but also took care of his own interests.
It is a win-win situation.
However, Su Mou refused.
Win-win is not that he and Kong Zheng win together, but that he will win twice.
The imperial examination is of great importance, and his reform plan cannot have twists and turns.
Moreover, as the saying goes, the new official has three fires, and his new emperor will burn thirty fires no matter how he ascended the throne. How can Kong Zheng put out the first fire with a bubble of urine?
This is not in line with his strong will.
So Su Yonglin rejected Kong Zheng’s suggestion-
The New Dynasty and the New Deal can’t be delayed. If scholars don’t want to participate, they can postpone the exam for three years and come back when they are ready. The imperial examination will never be suspended
Boy, magic has defeated magic. It belongs to yes
Kong Zheng’s dizzy plan can call the ministries to discuss countermeasures.
Chapter 617 Su Yonglin I changed it back again
Ministries, holding each other, I thought broadly and finally decided to show it to the emperor again.
They hope that the emperor will consider that there are five months before the imperial examination in Hongwu’s second year, and it is realistic not to change the imperial examination, otherwise some scholars will really go crazy.
This is not in everyone’s interest.
However, Su Yonglin is still not allowed after receiving the watch.
He personally wrote a handwritten letter to the department of rites.
[Book of Rites University] It is said that everything is changing day by day and everything is changing day by day. What if even the reform of the imperial examination can’t afford such mediocrity? 】
This is really a magic war. Su Yonglin skillfully used Confucian classics to launch a magic attack on does, and does not know how to fight it.
Not only that, Su Yonglin also said that he had planned to modify the imperial examination system and prepare to postpone the five rounds of the grand imperial examination reform, namely, the county examination, the state examination, the provincial examination, the general examination and the palace examination examination, to the second imperial examination in the fifth year of Hongwu as appropriate, considering that scholars could not bear a lot of changes at one time.
The emperor has made concessions. What are you going to do?
No!
When I received Su Yonglin’s edict for the first time, I could stare at each other and do nothing but stare.
Then they were even more shocked to hear that the emperor was going to reform the imperial examination system and increase the imperial examination to five rounds of selection!
The emperor should not only bring back the rules of taking examinees by subjects in the imperial examination, but also make some innovations in the examination rules.
How premature!
Kong Zheng almost fainted. Zhou Jiang, the left assistant minister, quickly held Kong Zheng.
"Is the hall all right?"
"Not good at all!"
Kong Zheng’s face was full of panic and frustration, but he could not stand up to the strong emperor Su Yonglin and could choose to compromise.
However, this kind of words can’t make you say that you must let the officials of the Ministry of Physical Education and Rites share the burden to avoid the future sacrifice of yourself as the whole Ministry of Rites.
Everyone has to carry the blame, and none of you bastards are going to escape!
