To pacify Liaodong and destroy Jiannu is the top priority, but it is not the only job.

Although the emperor has not yet achieved his full results, he feels a little restrained. However, many work cannot be delayed and must be arranged in advance and prepared in advance.

In Zhu Youxiao's memory, the Ming Dynasty was not destroyed by Jianlu, but was overthrown by hundreds of thousands or millions of hungry people who could not afford to eat.

Only when there are no major problems within the Ming Dynasty, as long as the people can have a meal, the country will not be as stable as Mount Tai, but can survive for dozens or hundreds of years.

As for Jianlu, even if this large-scale counterattack cannot be destroyed, it will not cause any storm or become a climate.

Internal troubles are greater than external troubles, or in other words, if there is an internal problem, only the external enemy of scabies will become a major problem.

Party struggle is undoubtedly the biggest disadvantage. It ignores national affairs and only cares about fighting for power and profit, eliminates dissidents, resulting in a confusion of the system and inefficient administrative efficiency;

The second is corruption, the powerful, bureaucrats, landlords, and gentry, each with their own minds, seek their own interests, putting the country in danger, natural disasters and man-made disasters, military and civilian hardships, and people's displacement;

Third, the eight-legged scholar selection has become rigid and backward, and most of the selected officials have the advantage of verbalism but no practical ability. They are passionate but have no plans to deal with things, which is about these civil officials who are stupid in their studies;

As for the others, Zhu Youxiao is not easy to say, and he can only change it step by step.

Because, if you continue to study, there will be problems in the entire Ming system, and hundreds of years of accumulated habits will not be so easy to reverse.

However, two of the three major problems have been cured by iron fist. I dare not say that I will remove the roots. At present, it cannot hinder the great cause of suppressing Liao and destroying slaves.

As for the others, it doesn’t have to make things worse or gentler.

Especially the imperial examination system, Zhu Youxiao knew that it would never be abolished, but he did not have a better or fairer way to get talent.

In fact, selecting talents through written examinations is also the main way in later generations. There are disadvantages, but they are the closest to fairness.

We must have high knowledge and strong practical work ability. Where can we find so many perfect talents?

Therefore, if you can be fair, the eight-legged essay is at least a standard test standard, just like the standardized test questions in later generations, you don’t have to kill them with one blow.

"If the Liao Dynasty is successful, the imperial examination will not be postponed next year." The emperor handed over a new book that still emitted the ink fragrance to the Minister of Rites Lao Dong, and explained: "Immediately issue a document to the world and give this book "Natural Common Sense" to the imperial examination next year."

Old Dong bowed to take the book, dared not look in front of the emperor, and respectfully answered the order.

After telling the world, the Royal Bookstore can make another profit! You can’t buy the essential books in the college entrance examination unless you don’t take the exam.

"Give a seat." The emperor ordered that a palace servant brought the embroidery pen to sit down.

Dong Qichang was thanking him for his gratitude and was wondering if the dozen or so calligraphy and paintings that gave him long live on the birthday have worked?

The emperor is famous for loving money, but he is not stingy in spending money. This is the biggest difference from Grandpa Wanli.

"The primary school textbooks are almost completed." The emperor picked up the tea and took a sip, and said slowly: "The publication will be published soon, and the primary school exam will officially begin in three years."

Dong Qichang listened carefully, guessing the emperor's intention, and felt that the emperor intended to ask the Ministry of Rites to preside over the primary school qualification examination.

In the imperial examination, only the imperial examination is chaired by the Ministry of Rites.

Local school officials, such as the Promotional School Officer, were provincial-level education chief executives in the Ming Dynasty and appointed by the court, but did not accept the leadership of the state's education department, such as the Ministry of Rites.

Therefore, Zhu Youxiao felt that the responsibilities of the Ming Dynasty's education system were not clear enough. The responsibility of the school officials was to supervise the implementation of Confucian education and the determination of educational effectiveness, which was even less in line with the emperor's thoughts.

Is Confucianism still Confucianism in the pre-Qin period? The popular Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism is just a branch of Confucianism and an interpreter.

Even if we take the Confucian classics from the pre-Qin period, our history has developed for thousands of years, will we still fully adapt to society?

Zhu Youxiao did not think this is the case, nor did he think that there is any theory that is perfect and can be unchanged from time to time.

Is there anything good about the Legalists? Does the Mohist school include some primitive science? What about the study of Laozi and Zhuangzi?

Therefore, to break the dominance of Confucianism, we must absorb and gain versatility, and a hundred schools of thought contend.

Zhu Youxiao did not elevate a certain school of philosophy to the point of being the only one. He is more familiar with this sentence than anyone else.

"The qualifications of primary school do not involve fame and fortune for the time being." The emperor continued to say slowly: "It is just that there are some exemptions in taxes, which will make the people more motivated to let their children study and study."

Realizing that the emperor's eyes were coming, Old Dong hurriedly bowed and said, "Long live, do you intend to ask the Ministry of Rites to send someone to various places to preside over the exam?"

Zhu Youxiao didn't make up his mind either. After all, it was not a level similar to the college entrance examination, and it was enough to be hosted by each county. But he was concerned about the long-term and the education system of the Ming Dynasty was to be rectified.

To promote primary education, we must first build schools. There are also many official schools in the Ming Dynasty, such as prefecture, county, and social schools, but the learning is different, and even teachers are a problem.

Tickling his head, the emperor smiled and said, "There is no rush to happen three to five years later, let me think about it again."

Dong Qichang also knew that this big thing was not easy to accomplish. Since the emperor had realized it, he would not talk much!

The old Dong left, the emperor gently stroked his forehead in the imperial chair, and finally smiled bitterly.

It’s simple to think that you need to reform the education system and educational content, and you don’t even have enough teachers.

It is normal to train teachers and establish a normal college, but will those scholars who only want to become officials and become officials go?

Shaoyingyuan is the best. A piece of white paper can be used to apply it by yourself. Only by educating those children since childhood can they not get so many pedantic bad habits.

"Go to Shaoyingyuan to ask, is the final exam time set?" The emperor suddenly raised his head and ordered the palace servant.

…………………………………………………………

The imperial examination was delayed by a year because of the battle to pacify Liao. Although it caused a lot of sensation, it quickly subsided.

Scholars are dissatisfied, but they dare not cause trouble, for fear of being disqualified and never being able to leap into the dragon gate and become an official.

Think about it again, Taizu had cancelled the imperial examination for more than ten years, but now it has only been postponed for one year. In comparison, it is already happy enough.

But those who are interested may find that the speed of officials being transferred to officials has not stopped, and there are even signs of speed up. Moreover, the relevant regulations formulated by the court have become more and more detailed, more formal and more fair.

But even those who are interested will not fully know the emperor’s plan.

By changing officials to officials, not only can clerks have room for promotion, they will reduce their desire to just live and earn personal gain illegally, but also gradually establish a procedure similar to the civil service examination to be formalized.
