What's more, no matter whether he is dead or not, as long as he is not in the capital, it is our opportunity after all. As soon as the new king takes the throne, he will change the imperial examination, re-employ northerners, and change the tax law. In just a few days, the court has already become a mess.

We also let those villains falsely accuse the Prince of Guangze of having a private grudge against the Daxing Emperor. This is clearly an attempt to accuse the Prince of Guangze and kill him. Our Ming Dynasty has just sent away a tyrant, and here comes another tyrant."

Huang Zicheng said with a sneer.

As soon as Zhu Yunxi succeeded to the throne, he immediately issued an order to change the imperial examination system that he had been thinking about for a long time.

That is to say, to select scholars by subject.

The five subjects are literature, engineering, agriculture, arithmetic and military.

The liberal arts were tested in the previous imperial examinations, but they were no longer limited to Confucian classics. Simply put, they were tested on arbitrary propositions, but in fact they were still Confucian. After all, the people who asked the questions were still civil servants.

But the remaining four subjects have nothing to do with Confucianism.

Moreover, Jinshi in the Five Subjects are at the same level. After passing the exam, they will be at the bottom, and then promoted according to their results. Jinshi in Liberal Arts will still go to the county government as in the past, but they may not necessarily be the county magistrate, they may also be the chief registrar, or even the classics historian. However, Dingjia is still

Enter the Hanlin Academy, but all the top five subjects enter the Hanlin Academy, and the second top ones still go to various yamen in the capital. They also start from the lowest level officials, and then go to the Ministry of Industry from the engineering major, then to the household department from the arithmetic major, and from the military department to the military department. Although the agricultural major does not

The Ministry of Agriculture, but you can go directly to the county government just like liberal arts. This reform seriously harmed the interests of Confucian students. In fact, almost half of their positions were cut off. And even liberal arts are not necessarily all Confucian. After all, they are no longer limited to Confucianism.

It’s a classic.

It was the civil servants who set the topic, but it was the emperor who gave the final approval!

If he wants to take the Ming Dynasty law test, that's fine.

The Confucian scholars were completely stunned by the slap, especially the great Confucian scholars in the south who were cultivating, studying, and heirlooms. They had no idea what to do.

Studying hard in Hanchuang just to compete with a group of craftsmen, traders and even mud-legged people?

Agricultural science is really a mess.

Of course, they are actually agricultural students.

The reform of the imperial examination was systematic. It was not that the imperial court suddenly opened agricultural subjects, but that local governments first carried out agricultural education and used the teaching materials prepared by Yang Feng to open agricultural schools. Zhu Yuanzhang had already established basic education that was popularized throughout the country, and also

That is to say, there are a large number of children who are literate among the people, so these children can enroll in agricultural schools.

Then study agriculture.

After studying, he took the imperial examination.

However, agronomy definitely requires going to the fields, such as breeding and fertilizer research. How can you do research without going to the fields?

Those who study fertilizers must also study the various ingredients of manure pills!

The smell was quite strong.

Yang Fengdu had to provide homemade gas masks to workers who produced dung pills.

Yang Feng had already designed this reform of the imperial examination with the emperor Taisun four years ago.

There are even many experimental schools.

The same goes for other subjects, and even liberal arts schools actually have specialized schools such as law.

They are all in Mount Wutai in Yangfeng.

Zhu Yunxi finally survived until his grandfather died and became emperor. He could promote the original experimental school to the whole country. Anyway, he opened the imperial examination, and the first batch of students in these subjects were he and Yang Feng.

For those experimental schools, these are the disciples of the Emperor. They go directly to the exams and then go to work as officials at the grassroots level.

His Majesty the Emperor suddenly had a large number of grassroots officials who met his standards.

Then more such schools will be opened.

Step by step increase the number of Jinshi in miscellaneous subjects.

Gradually replace the officialdom.

This has been planned for a long time.

It's just that Lao Zhu didn't want to do this in the past. After all, he understood that Confucianism was very beneficial to safeguarding the family world, but Zhu Yunxi didn't care about this. In other words, he was influenced by modern thinking and had his own theory of safeguarding the family world.

but……

"Even without Yang Feng, what can you and I, a group of Confucian scholars, do? Your Majesty still has the Shenji Camp. Without the Shenji Camp, there is still the Beijing Camp. Even without Yang Feng, he still has Lan Yu.

What can you and I do?

King Yan is far away in the Western Regions, what can you and I do?"

Qitai said.

Indeed, this situation is simply desperate!

"Brother Nantang, don't forget, we are grasshoppers on a rope. Do you think if I go to His Majesty to reveal the conspiracies we had together in the past, will he punish your three clans?"

Fang Xiaoru sneered.

Qitai's eyes widened...

"Then you and the other three tribes won't be able to escape."

he said angrily.

"Fang received the kindness of King Guangze and should repay him with death. It's just three clans, so what about ten clans? Fang could give up three clans in order to repay King Guangze. I wonder if you can give up?"

Fang Xiaoru said.

Qitai froze instantly.

"Brother Nantang, you can't back down. In fact, you also know very well that there is nothing we can do. As long as Yang Feng is not here, we have a glimmer of hope. There is a personal letter from Prince Guangze here. You might as well read it first."

When Huang Zicheng saw that the heat was coming, he pushed a letter in front of Qi Tai and said.

Zhu Yunwen has been banned from the house and they cannot see him.

The latter was stunned for a moment.

He then opened the letter...

"The King of Yan is far away in the Western Regions. Do you think a mere King of Xiang can protect the King of Guangze?"

He then sneered.

Well, Zhu Yunwen's secret message asked them to rescue him and then flee to Jingzhou to seek protection from King Xiang. After all, he also knew that if he didn't run away at this time, he would really be waiting to die.

"Brother Nantang, if the King of Xiang cannot protect us, then we will go to the King of Chu. If the King of Chu cannot protect us, then we will go to the other vassal kings. If His Majesty the Emperor wants to kill his brother with his brother, the elder brother will ask his uncle for protection. This is

Pretty reasonable, right?”

Huang Zicheng said.
