Chapter 1105: Breakthrough

***

The servants in the Great Qin Army are indeed quite special, they usually have a high level of cultural literacy, and in terms of duties, their duties are also civilian. Top Novel,

But they are indeed soldiers, because they receive a militarized education in military academies.

Moreover, the officers are not necessarily limited to civilian positions in the army, and many people rely on their command skills to change from officers to generals, directly commanding the army to fight.

There is no insurmountable line between civilian and military positions in the military.

They are not only highly educated, but also receive militarized education, and their efficiency in doing things is often higher than that of those orthodox civil officials who memorize the Four Books and Five Classics and pass the imperial examination.

If they are allowed to move from "generals" to "ministers" and serve as civil officials in the court, they should be completely competent, or even better.

If we can open another opening in this aspect and find another way, then the importance and irreplaceability of the imperial examination will slowly waver. And as long as this is shaken, it will be easy to do.

If you want to reform the imperial examination, it is equivalent to moving the cheese of the world's scholars, and the resistance is so great that you don't need to think about it to know that if you do it too quickly, it must lead to discouragement and even chaos in the world.

Regarding this matter, Qin Mu can be said to be walking on thin ice, cautious, and did not dare to penetrate the ministers of the DPRK and the Central Government at all.

As the saying goes: chaos is born, then words are ordered. If the king is not secret, he will lose his ministers, if he is not secret, he will be **, and if he is not secret, he will be harmed. It is a gentleman's prudence and not out.

Therefore, Qin Mu did not even dare to let his most trusted confidant minister know, and he did not dare to use the usual method of building public opinion on the "Daqin Times" first. It can only be done carefully, first infiltrating little by little from other channels.

On this day, when the Chang Dynasty of the Xuanzheng Hall was discussing the vacancy of the head of the Ministry of Officials, Li Si of the Imperial History proposed that Li Guowei, the official of the capital under the jurisdiction of the Governor's Office of the Chinese Army, fill the vacancy.

This proposal made the court quiet for a while, and Qin Mu said at the right time: "Li Guowei is from the former Ming Dynasty. Shrewd and capable, in charge of the Chinese military governor's office, rewards and punishments, knowing people and good duties, completing their own work very well, the Chinese military governor's office is evaluated every year. Let him be transferred to the ministry, which is also the position of the supervisor to evaluate merit, but it is also appropriate. Li Yushi recommended, I think it is feasible, what do you think the ministers think? ”

In the Song and Ming dynasties, it was not uncommon for civil officials to hold military positions. However, it is not easy for a military general to become a civilian official.

For example, Di Qing of the Song Dynasty had great military achievements, and the emperor liked him very much and asked him to serve as a privy envoy, who was in charge of the power to transfer troops in the Song Dynasty, strictly speaking, this still belongs to the category of "martial arts";

Just because in the Song Dynasty. The privy envoy has always been controlled by civilian officials, and has been regarded by civil officials as their own forbidden body, and military generals cannot move.

As soon as Di Qing became a privy envoy, he was immediately violently attacked by the civilian clique. Even Ouyang Xiu and others also accused Sang of scolding Huai and secretly scolding Di Qing for having backbones. Not long after Di Qing became a privy envoy, he was forced to resign. Depressed.

In the Ming Dynasty, almost all the "supervisors" were appointed by civil officials, such as Wang Yangming, Sun Chuanting, Yuan Chonghuan and so on. All of them are civilian officials in military positions. And if a military general wants to enter the sequence of civil officials, it is even more difficult.

As soon as Qin Mu opened his mouth, he emphasized that Li Guowei was born in the former Ming Dynasty, which offset the concerns of many civil officials in the court, after all, although it is difficult to compare with Jinshi, he is also a "literati", and Li Guowei's political achievements in the Governor's Mansion of the Chinese Army are really good and have a good reputation.

Its responsibilities in the army are mainly to evaluate merit, in fact, it is not much different from the merit evaluation of the officials, except that one is the military system and the other is the civilian system.

Even so, some officials came out to object, and the officials gave Ma Yuan Wat out of the team and said: "Your Majesty, the officials are called the head of the six departments."

"Ma Qing, I want to correct you, my Great Qin is not six, but seven." Qin Mu calmly interrupted Ma Yuan's words, and a low laugh suddenly came from the court.

Ma Yuan was quite embarrassed, and his momentum was weak, so he had to ask for guilt first: "The minister made a mistake for a while, please forgive your majesty." ”

"I have always emphasized the importance of diplomacy, and now it seems that there are still many ministers who unconsciously ignore the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which is inappropriate, inappropriate! Ma Qing's mistakes, I don't want the ministers to do it again, okay Ma Qing, I forgive you this time, what do you have to do, please continue. ”

It's even more embarrassing to get off the horse, the emperor is so generous, how embarrassed are you to turn your back on people and immediately oppose the emperor's opinion. He was a little stunned, but he still reluctantly said: "Minister, thank Your Majesty for your grace of not sinning." The minister thought that the ministry was the head of the seventy-seven ministries, with great power and responsibility, and the head of the ministry was in charge of the evaluation of hundreds of officials, and the people who were in charge should be more cautious.

Although Li Guowei is also in charge of the merit examination in the Governor's Office of the Chinese Army, he is different from the Ministry of Officials after all. It is because the minister thinks that he should choose another merit and serve as the head of the ministry. The minister recommended the officials and the member of the Ministry of Foreign Lang Pang Yue. Pang Yue has been in charge of the ministry for many years, is very familiar with the ministry affairs, has the courage to do things during his tenure, and has made remarkable achievements, and is a rare talent. ”

After Ma Yuan finished speaking, many people immediately seconded the proposal. Pang Yue, Qin Mu knows, is indeed a talent. Judging from his heart, it was not bad for Ma Yuan to recommend him.

But Qin Mu wanted to transfer Li Guowei to the Ministry of Officials, originally to open a small opening, and if he didn't achieve his goal, he would not give up. He quietly asked Liu Boquan, a scholar of Dongge University and a scholar of the household department: "Liu Qing, who do you think is suitable?" ”

Liu Boquan immediately replied: "Your Majesty, Pang Yue is really a talent that can be created, and he may be able to be used as a pillar of the court in the future, but he is still young, and the minister thinks that he should be allowed to experience another two years. Therefore, the minister thought that it would be appropriate for Li Guowei to take the post of head of the ministry first. ”

Qin Mu remained silent, and then asked Shoufu Sima Andao: "What does Elder Sima Ge think?" ”

Sima An is an old man, Qin Mu asked Liu Boquan first, and then asked him, doesn't it mean obviously, Li Guowei is also from a good background, why bother to get along with the emperor for this matter.

So, Sima An said: "The minister thinks what Liu Shangshu said is not unreasonable, and the minister seconded it. ”

"In that case, the post of director of the Ministry of Officials will be taken over by Li Guowei."

Qin Mu quickly cut through the mess, and as soon as he got the approval of the two cabinet ministers, he immediately established the matter, because Li Guowei entered the military with a text, and then returned to the military with a martial art, which was barely acceptable to everyone, and this matter did not cause a fierce civil and military dispute.

But as the so-called anthill bursts, some things are much easier to do as long as they open a small opening. As long as you slowly infiltrate along this small opening, you will be able to break through the embankment sooner or later.

It seems that it is necessary to gradually increase the teaching content of military academies and introduce administrative management courses called managing the army, but in fact they are training professional administrative personnel in disguise and gradually reducing their dependence on the selection of officials for the imperial examination.

As for letting the winners of the Royal Science Prize get the qualifications to be officials, Qin Mu did not mention this matter for the time being.

In fact, there are technical and administrative officials. Those who are not science prize winners are suitable for officials, and most of those who are really obsessed with scientific research have no intention of becoming officials.

It is also not suitable to be an official by learning mathematics, physics and chemistry curves, and those who study these natural sciences may not have done well as those who have not studied the Four Books and Five Classics to become officials.

Therefore, using official positions to lure scholars to delve into mathematics, physics and chemistry may only lead to another deformed social form.

Rather than this, it is better to give official positions equal or similar status, such as titles and honors such as academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in later generations.

Increase the intensity of material rewards, and increase the treatment and popularity of natural science researchers in disguise. In this way, their social status will inevitably gradually increase.

Just like Li Yi, the son of a craftsman, but because he won the Royal Science Award, he became a hot figure for a while, and matchmakers rushed to the door, which was more lively than catching a son-in-law under the list.

It's just that after all, the Royal Science Prize can't be like cabbage, which is all over the street, so it's not worth it.

But just a few award-winning people are not enough to meet the demand.

Establish a Royal Academy of Sciences, first of all, the royal family will support a large number of cutting-edge talents in natural sciences, quote some later generations of professorship qualifications, and let them enjoy some official treatment, or special allowances and the like.

Then publicize more of their deeds in the newspapers, and improve their social status in disguise by increasing their popularity.

This should be enough to reverse the deformity of mathematics, physics and chemistry that no one cares about.
