Chapter 358: The Reform Of The Imperial Examination And The Promotion Of Enlightenment [Please Subsc
On the podium, Yan Changqing turned around and looked at Zhu Yuanzhang, as well as the princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Di, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes, nodded and said:
"That's right, it's the imperial examination reform."
"Originally, there were only rural examinations and joint examinations for opening subjects, which were relatively simple and crude. It should be possible to further divide them in detail."
“For example, under the rural examinations of each province, county examinations, state examinations, and prefectural examinations are held respectively according to prefectures, prefectures, and counties.
“The county examination is held once a year and is mainly held in each county. The local magistrate presides over it and serves as the examiner. The county teacher and instructor supervise the examination. The examination time can be set in February every year.
"One month before the exam, each county will post announcements announcing the specific exam time. Students should go to the county government office to register as soon as possible."
"Those who pass the county examination are called county students and are qualified to further participate in the state examination."
"The state examination is also held once a year. The local magistrate presides over it and serves as the examiner. The state teacher and instructor invigilate the examination. The examination time can be set in April every year. The registration method for the examination is basically the same as the county examination."
"Those who pass the state examination are called talented students and are also qualified to further participate in the government examination."
"The government examination is also an annual test. The local magistrate presides over and serves as the examiner. The government teacher and instructor invigilate the examination. The examination time can be set in June every year. The registration method for the examination is basically the same as the state examination.
"Those who pass the imperial examination are called scholars."
"After becoming a scholar, if you want to go one step further and participate in the provincial examinations in each province.
"Well, it doesn't seem appropriate to call it the provincial examination. Let's call it the provincial examination."
"After becoming a scholar, if you want to go further, take the provincial examination and become a scholar."
"Then there are two options. One is to directly participate in the provincial examination as a scholar. If you participate in the provincial examination in this way, you will not receive any preferential treatment in the provincial examination."
"The other one is to take the initiative to receive [educational tasks] from a court [such as teaching the students to learn to read and write the main hundred core Chinese characters and two thousand important Chinese characters!!!"
"A scholar who has completed the [Education Task] can obtain a certificate of [Education Merit] issued by the prefect."
"In the provincial examination, talents with [educational achievements] can receive extra preferential treatment."
"For example, any scholar who has [the merit of enlightenment] can get [ten points]`||!"
"After adding [10 points] for [Education Merit], this is the scholar's final provincial examination result."
"Or if a scholar with [the merit of enlightenment] has the same performance as a scholar without [the merit of enlightenment], then priority will be given to the scholar with [the merit of enlightenment]."
"In addition, [Education Power] is also divided into different levels."
"For example, if you teach a village of people to read and write 300 core Chinese characters and 2,000 important Chinese characters, you can get one star [Education Merit].
"If you teach people in two villages how to read and write 300 core Chinese characters and 2,000 important Chinese characters, you can get two stars [Education Merit]."
"If you teach the people of three villages how to read and write 300 core Chinese characters and 2,000 important Chinese characters, you can get three stars [Education Merit]."
"By analogy, if you obtain nine stars [Education Power], you can combine it into one month [Education Power]."
"If you can obtain the nine-month [Education Merit], then you can further combine it into a one-day [Education Merit]."
"If he can obtain [Education Merit] for one day, then the imperial court can directly grant him a [Seventh Grade Enlightenment Officer], for example, he can be directly appointed as a seventh-grade local magistrate or something like that.
"As for the other scholars who have obtained [the merit of enlightenment] under the same day, if their provincial examination scores are the same, then they will be ranked according to the level of [the merit of enlightenment], or they will be admitted based on the higher grades. !!!"
"In addition, I remember that the imperial court also provided certain subsidies for scholars," such as rice for daily use, regular money for studying in rural areas, exemption from corvee, exemption from land tax, and so on.
"The exemption from land tax is abolished, and the regular financial subsidies for scholars can be appropriately increased."
"In addition, the rest of the rice, silver, school fields, etc. will also be discounted and all will be distributed as subsidies for scholars, so that scholars can buy whatever they need."
"If you calculate it this way, the total monthly subsidy for a scholar should be around three dollars."
"Finally, the total monthly subsidy for scholars who have no [educational achievements] will be reduced by two-thirds!!"
"Then, two-thirds of the total monthly subsidy will be added to those scholars who are going to the countryside and villages to educate the people in reading and literacy, as well as those scholars who have [the merit of education]!!! "
"In other words, in terms of the total monthly subsidy for scholars, the total monthly subsidy given to them by the imperial court is five Guan Qian."
"As for the scholars who have not been educated and have no [educating merit], the total monthly subsidy given to them by the imperial court is the same amount of money."
Having said this, Yan Changqing paused and gave Zhu Yuanzhang, as well as the princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Di, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes a moment to digest, absorb and understand.
Because the most important part of his imperial examination reform is the [effort of enlightenment].
Below, Zhu Yuanzhang, as well as the princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Di, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes, after listening to this part of what Yan Changqing said, they all looked at Yan Changqing with their mouths open.
They fully understood what Yan Changqing meant by [the power of enlightenment]!
[In the provincial examination, talents who have made great achievements in teaching will receive ten points added to their scores?!!]
[If the final results of a scholar with a merit of enlightenment are the same as a scholar without a merit of enlightenment, the scholar with a merit of enlightenment will be given priority in admission?!!]
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Yan Changqing excitedly as soon as this policy came out.
I am afraid that most scholars will choose to go to the countryside and villages to educate the people in order to obtain this "Education Merit".
Although there was no such saying as ".[Raise one point and kill a thousand people" during the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, it does not mean that the imperial examination competition during the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty was easy.
And with this special provincial examination preferential treatment of "ten points for the merit of enlightenment", it is enough for those scholars with [the merit of enlightenment] to improve their provincial examination scores from B to A.
Coupled with the policy of "equal scores, priority will be given to admitting talents with merits of enlightenment", it is enough to squeeze out most of the talents without [the merits of enlightenment].
[If the talents with the merit of enlightenment have the same grades as each other, then they will be ranked according to the merit of enlightenment, or the talents with higher merit of enlightenment will be given priority?!!]
Prince Zhu Biao looked at Yan Changqing with admiration in his eyes.
With this in mind, even if those scholars obtain the "Education Merit", they may not feel at ease, because you never know (money or not) whether others will obtain a higher "Education Merit" than you.
And once someone else's [Education Merit] is higher than yours, then even if you and his provincial exam scores are the same, your ranking will be lower than the other person's.
If your performance ranking is lower than that of the other party, it means that if the court wants to hire a group of candidates, the probability of the other party being hired is much greater than your own!
If you want to avoid this situation, the best way is to obtain as much [Education Merit] as possible!!!
Only if your [Education Gong] is higher than other people, then you don't have to worry about being squeezed out by others.
And once these scholars think this way and do this, then they will be in line with their idea of promoting universal literacy education so that people all over the world can read and write!!!
