"I've figured it out." Liu Hongchuan said very firmly.

If the imperial examination system cannot be reformed, then all the efforts he has made in the past three years will be in vain, and it will not be many years after he gets old, and the Ming Dynasty will still go back to the old way.

If the rigid imperial examination system cannot be changed, if Confucianism still controls the empire, what district will he use to comfort the dead Uncle Chongzhen, and what will he use to comfort the countless heroes who died on the battlefield for the Ming Empire.

He promised General Qin and Uncle Chongzhen that he would prosper the Ming Dynasty and give well-being to the people of the world, so if he doesn't go to hell, who will go to hell.

Lu Zi once said that he would make a miracle and fight to turn a bicycle into a motorcycle, but he didn't believe it, whether the guns of his soldiers were hard, or the backbone of the people in the world was hard.

After thinking about this, Liu Hong's eyes gradually became more profound.

"Pick up the pen and ink." Liu Hong gradually said to Zhu Cihong.

The only person in the world who dares to speak to Zhu Cihong like this is estimated to be Liu Hongji.

After Zhu Cihong heard this, he directly rushed to the Bingbi eunuch who was waiting outside the door and signaled, and Shao Dump Dahai, who came in with the four treasures of the study, sat quietly on the side of the table and spread out the rice paper under Zhu Cihong's instructions, acting as a pen clerk.

"First, cancel the customization of the eight-share taker, and in the body of the article, you can let the candidates play freely."

As soon as Liu Hong finished saying the first article, Zhu Cihong didn't feel anything, and the huge sea of records trembled.

This is to break ground on the head of the literati, although he is a minister, but he is also a clerk who has completed his work, and the clerk's office of the inner court is equivalent to the Hanlin Academy of the outer court.

The Hanlin Academy is the talent pool of the outer court, and those who enter the cabinet are all out of the Hanlin Academy, and the clerical room is the talent pool of the inner court, and those who enter the ceremonial supervisor must leave the clerical room.

As the master of ceremonies, Da Dahai naturally knows the importance of the imperial examination to the court, and this is definitely a big battle.

However, he was a little happy in his heart, the inner court has always been fighting openly and secretly for the outer court, and now he has added a giant Anguo County King to intervene everywhere, as the governor of the Dongchang factory and the leader behind the inner court, the huge sea is not to mention how uncomfortable.

Now seeing that the king of Anguo County is going to attack the imperial examination system, the imperial examination system is the lifeblood of literati, and the king of Anguo County must be fighting with those guys in the outer court, can he not be happy.

If the king of Anguo County is beaten down, he can use the power in his hand and the trust of the emperor to naturally grab the position of the palm seal of the celebrant eunuch, in the eyes of the huge sea, the current celebrant palm seal Wang Erxi is too much of an eyesore.

Although this young man surnamed Wang is very honest and never uses his power to oppress him, although the inner court is actually controlled by him, it is the dream of all eunuchs to sit on the eunuch who is in charge of the eunuch.

If the courtiers are beaten down, it will be more comfortable, as long as he doesn't provoke this crazy king of Anguo, the inner court and the outer court don't have to listen to him, anyway, this king of Anguo has never been in court.

The sandpiper and the clam compete with each other for the fisherman's profit, and the huge sea is proud of being the fisherman.

"What are you happy about, is it possible that you also think that Brother Liu's proposal is good?" Zhu Cihong saw that Da Dahai had finished writing a line with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and asked casually.

"The prince's eloquence is naturally good, don't hide it from the emperor, and the slave and maid also feel that the eight-strand text is too difficult to write." A chrysanthemum bloomed on the face of the huge sea elder in an instant, and he said while complimenting.

"Well, write down Brother Liu's words word for word, if you miss a word, I only ask you." Zhu Cihong said in a deep voice.

Huge Hai naturally nodded yes, he will indeed have a good life record word for word, because he still has to be the fisherman!

"Second, the content of the palace examination reduces the proportion of Confucian classics, and the minister believes that it is beneficial to reduce it to three, and adds subjects such as Ming Law, Ming Calculation, and Ming Characters, which greatly increases the proportion of a subject of policy theory."

"Brother Liu, this move may be opposed by the courtiers." After the second article was finished, not only Da Dahai was dumbfounded, but even Zhu Cihong was not calm.

If it is said that the rigid format of eight shares is abolished, although the courtiers will inevitably have complaints, but after all, it is only a format problem, and he can still hold it down.

However, if the content of the imperial examination was changed, and instead of focusing on the Confucian classics, other laws and regulations such as Legalism and Mohistism, and the study of geometry were promoted, how could the courtiers give up and be resigned, and the cabinet would not be able to collectively write a recital to oppose it.

This is moving the foundation of the saints, and this is moving the foundation of the heavenly people.

"Scared? Hehe, it is difficult to change the law, all the dynasties have changed the law in a river of blood, and today's imperial examination is like the disease of scabies, if you can't bear the short-term pain, the pain will not stop for a long time, and your children and grandchildren will be affected by it. Liu Hong smiled slightly.

Zhu Cihong clenched his fists when he heard this, as if he had made up his mind.

"Third, the study of military science and science and engineering should be included in the imperial examination, and equal emphasis should be placed on the study of scriptures." Liu Hongjian then dropped a third bombshell.

Military science is the tactics, military system, weapons, topography, navigation and other subjects taught in the martial arts hall, in fact, these military studies were still more valued in the early years of the Ming Dynasty.

The Ming Dynasty opened the country several times, just to reserve military talents for the imperial court, but later after the Ming Dynasty banned the sea, there was no war for nearly a hundred years, and the martial arts were almost abolished.

In addition, the martial arts have always been suppressed by the literati, and the imperial examination is held once every three years, and each time it is the top event of the Ming Dynasty, and the whole country pays attention to it.

But when it came to Wuju, few people paid attention to it at all, and even later, the imperial court didn't even bother to fix the invigilators, and the emperor even sent eunuchs from the inner court, plus a small director of the six departments who were randomly transferred to Zhang Luo.

It's ridiculous.

The inclusion of military science in the imperial examination, alongside the study of scriptures, and the same specifications, to correct the name of the world's martial artists, and to reserve military talents for the imperial court is also the top priority of this reform of the imperial examination.

There is only one martial arts hall, which is completely insufficient, and the inclusion of military science in the imperial examination, the county schools of each county and the government schools of each prefecture must teach the knowledge of military science, and it is much better than the small temple of the martial arts hall to draw talents from all the people in the world.

At most, the martial arts hall is regarded as a high-level military academy, and they may go to serve in the garrisons of various towns after graduation, but they do not have the qualifications to enter the imperial court and enter the military department, which is inappropriate.

As early as the beginning of the establishment of the Lecture Hall and the College of Engineering, Liu Hong gradually considered this problem, and a school was not enough to support a huge empire.

"This ......" Zhu Cihong was a little confused.

Liu Hong gradually waved his hand, signaling for him to finish first.

"Third, the imperial examination has been adjusted from once every three years to once every two years, and the top 300 in economics, military science, and engineering are each selected as jinshi."

Daming needs talents, needs more talents, there are so many treasures overseas that need to be plundered, how can you take those two or three hundred people a year?

"I've thought of so much for the time being, go back to the emperor and see if there is anything that needs to be added or changed." Liu Hong gradually ignored the stunned expressions of Zhu Cihong's master and servant, picked up a glass of wine and drank it all.

If you really want to compete with the Confucian scholars in the world, let the storm come more violently!
