505. Chapter 505: Taixue Reform

On the second day after Guan Yu returned home, he said goodbye to the Hu family and rode the war horse that Chen Xu lent him to Pusaka. Xie County is not too far from Pusaka, and Guan Yu rushed to the city on horseback in one day.

At this time, Wen Zhao was discussing with Tian Feng and others about students from other places going to Taixue to study.

I saw Wen Zhao talking eloquently: "I met a hunter in Yangwu in the east this time, and I learned that students from other places want to come to Pusaka to enter Taixue, but there are many difficulties. ”

In this era, transportation is inconvenient, and the number of students is limited after all. Therefore, the vast majority of the students recruited by Pusaka are ordinary people near the capital.

People in the rest of the country either did not have the money to travel to Kabasaka, or they were afraid that they would lose the election after a long journey. Therefore, it is extremely rare for students to come to the examination from other places.

"I bought this Taixue, not only for the people near Pusaka, but also for the academy prepared for high-ranking officials and nobles. My goal is to enable all aspiring young people in the world to have a place to realize their dreams. ”

"Therefore, regarding the future enrollment of Taixue, it is necessary to carry out reforms in three aspects."

Today's Taixue is facing the situation of more monks and less porridge, and there are countless people in Wenzhao who want to enter Taixue, but Taixue can't recruit all of them.

Although this problem cannot be solved, it can expand the scale of Taixue so that Taixue can accommodate more people. In this way, the number of places that have the opportunity to enter Taixue will naturally increase.

Considering that the competition between the various schools in later generations was very fierce, Fumiaki also suggested that four Taigakuin schools should be set up in Kasaka, with different people serving as principals.

In this way, it is possible to judge which college has a better education by the achievements of the students from each Tai Credit School.

This can not only expand the scale of Taixue, but also make students compete with each other and mobilize the enthusiasm of the students and tutors of the academy.

Therefore, the expansion of Taixue was Wen Zhao's first reform.

Even if Taixue expands again, the number of students it can accommodate is still extremely limited. Therefore, in order to be able to cultivate more outstanding students, the threshold for entering Taixue in the future will naturally be raised a lot.

In other words, it will become more difficult to enter Taixue in the future. Of course, the original intention of the establishment of Taixue is to cultivate poor students, and even if it is difficult to improve, it will give priority to admitting poor students.

Guanzhong has not yet reached the conditions for universal education, and can only cultivate a large number of poor people by establishing Taixue and raising the entrance threshold.

So that in the future, the country that Wen Zhao defeated will not be overly dependent on the family.

Therefore, raising the entrance threshold and taking the elite route is the second policy of Taixue reform.

As for the third reform, it involves a lot. This reform is mainly to be able to better select talents, and to make people from other places have the opportunity to enter Taixue.

Referring to the imperial examination system in later generations, Wen Zhao thought of a method for selecting foreign talents, that is, turning the selection of Tai students into three steps.

The first step is the county examination, which is set up in each county town to select talented local youth.

The county examination is different from the previous probation system, and only officials with high moral integrity can recommend talents. In the prefectural examination, everyone can participate, and as long as they pass the examination, they will be gathered together and sent to the county school.

When all the young people in a county who have passed the county examination are gathered together, the county examination will be held, and the county examination will screen a large number of people again.

The young people who have passed the prefectural examination will be gathered together and sent to Kabasaka to participate in the Taigaku interview.

Of course, these young people who go to Taixue will not necessarily enter Taixue. However, regardless of whether they lose the election or not, the government will reimburse the travel expenses of these people back and forth.

When everyone gathers in Kasaka, the four Tai Ward Academies will select and evaluate these young people. Due to the limited number of places, the Tai Academy will select those talents who have real potential.

In this way, the third step of Taixue's reform appeared in the county examination, the county examination, and finally the entrance examination.

"The cost of the prefectural test will be borne by those who take the test. After all, in a county town, it doesn't cost much at all. ”

"The county examination will screen a large number of people, and then there will be many fewer students who will participate in the county examination."

"In this way, if the local government bears the cost of these people's round-trips, the cost will not be too huge."

"Everyone can take the county exam, but because the population base of each county and county is different, the number of places that can finally take the county exam and the Taixue entrance exam will naturally be different."

In counties with large populations, they will be given more places to participate in the county examination, and more talents can be selected.

In the same way, in the county town with a large population, they will be given to go to Kasaka, and the more places they will be able to take the Taixue entrance exam.

In this way, it can not only save the cost of the people flocking to Pusaka to take the Taixue exam; It can also select the best of the best and select potential young people in various counties and counties.

Wen Zhao waved his arm and continued: "In order to ensure the fairness of the county test and the county test, we will finally count the number of people in each county and finally enter Taixue. ”

"Like those counties with large populations, if many students are selected to enter the Taixue interview, many people fail to be admitted to Taixue. The government should conduct a thorough investigation of the officials in charge of the county and county examinations of these students. ”

Cheating has been happening since ancient times, and it is impossible to completely eradicate it. However, Wen Zhao can minimize the occurrence of this kind of thing through his own methods.

The promulgation of Chen Xu's policy can basically ensure that those examiners who are responsible for the county examination and the county examination will not be excessively favoritistic.

For example, two counties with the same population base selected 200 young people to go to Pusaka for interviews. As a result, one county town had 150 people elected, while the other had only 50 people elected.

In this way, the county town where only 50 people were selected, and the examiners in charge of the county examination in it will be investigated by the government.

If there is a problem with the examiner of this county examination, the government will naturally punish him vigorously. If he has no problems, the government will go to investigate, the examiner in charge of the county examination.

In any case, when this happens, it is natural that someone will be held responsible.

Wen Zhao believes that even if the emergence of this policy cannot completely eradicate favoritism and malpractice, those officials in charge of the county and county examinations do not dare to go too far.

"This large-scale reform is to ensure that Taixue can indeed cultivate talents, and to ensure that every student who enters Taixue can make a difference after his academic success."

"Only in this way will the country's manpower and material resources not be wasted."
