    "Xin Ke Jinshi was knocked unconscious by the fruit?" Zhao Han couldn't help laughing.

    Song Yingxing said: "It's not that he was knocked unconscious by the fruit, but fell off the horse in shock and fell on the ground."

    Zhao Han asked: "Is there any serious problem?"

    Song Yingxing said: "It's all right.

    After the resumption of the imperial examination, the minds of the scholars are settled, even though many of them are not qualified to take the exam.  But you can educate your children. The gentry, wealthy businessmen, and wealthy businessmen are all crazy about spending money to train their offspring.  ¡¤

    People all over the country have also adapted to the new education system and official selection methods.

    In their minds, elementary school is the former social school, primary school graduates correspond to children, middle school is the former county school, and middle school graduates correspond to scholars.  Universities are Fuxue and Guozijian, and university graduates correspond to Juren.

    The selection of officials is the same as before, except that it starts from the eighth and ninth grades,

    ?Officials are selected and appointed, they must be Tongsheng or Juren, and they must take a public examination before they can take up the post.  Literary officials and soap officials, regardless of their superiority or inferiority, can be promoted upwards, and they can even be officials.

    Seems like a small change, but it is actually very important.

    The decline in the rank of Jinshi sent to the outside world can make officials more capable of governing. The diploma and examination requirements of officials have broken the control of the local family by the family of small officials, making it easier for the chief official to govern, and also strengthened the court's control over the local government.  control,

    The price is the increase in administrative costs!

    Many officials in the Ming Dynasty were not paid by the government. They made a living by corrupting the law and exploiting the people. Now they all need the government to pay their salaries, which is equivalent to adding to the salary expenditure of countless civil servants.

    In addition, each county has many primary schools, and the expenditure on grassroots education is also very large. Some poor counties have complained to their superiors about their poverty.

    Li Banghua said: "At the county level, 10% of the tax should be given to the local area. Especially in poor counties with poor business and mountainous areas, rural primary schools and county and town officials have already appeared in arrears. In some places, they have  I have been in arrears for several years, and only pay three to five solid monthly salary every year. In this case,

    It was reported by the inspectors of the clean government, and the local governments at all levels did not report to the higher authorities.  "

    Zhao Han also read the report of the Inspector of Integrity, and agreed: "Then give the local government an extra 10% of taxes."

    Zhao Han took out another secret report, which was sent by Liaodong Secret Works, and bypassed the court and delivered it directly to the emperor: "Dor Shuan and Dai Shan are dead."

    Pang Chunlai opened his eyes suddenly: "Infighting?

    Zhao Han said with a smile: "Last winter, Daishan and Dorgon died of illness one after another. At the time when the puppet empress dowager and Daishan were fighting fiercely, the two suddenly died of illness, which made Man Dahai terrified and led his troops out to Hun  River City has become independent, of course, Mandahai did not openly rebel, but only listened to the puppet Qing court and did not listen to the propaganda."

    The actual control territory of the Manchu Qing Dynasty is already very small, and it is still divided into two.

    Pang Chun said: "Your Majesty, you can use troops in the Northeast."

    Zhao Han said: "Let all the ministries in Liaoning prepare for the expedition as soon as the rainy season is over."

    ?It is still March, and it will take time to send the order to Liaoning, and it will take time to transport the military rations to Liaoning. It takes half a year to prepare for the expedition.

    Pang Chunlai also said: "When the Tartars are destroyed, please allow the veterans to retire."

    Zhao Han thought for a while, nodded and said, "At that time, I will send someone to escort the teacher back to his hometown."

    Pang Chunlai has not been in good health for the past two years, and he really wants to go back to Liaodong to enjoy his old age.  Although the bitter cold in Liaodong is not a place for the elderly, but after being away from home for many years, the dream is to return to the roots.

    Li Banghua then said: "Your Majesty, I am old and frail. After wiping out my son, I also request to return to my hometown."

    "Mr. Li is growing old and strong, please spare no effort." Zhao Han symbolically persuaded him to stay.

    "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your respect." Li Banghua planned to ask three times and resign.

    Firstly, he is really old, he is 76 years old this year, secondly, he knows the emperor's mind, Pang Chunlai's stay is to check and balance the senior officials from Jiangxi.  Pang Chun came and left.  He, Li Banghua, had better follow suit

    A few days after the Qionglin Banquet was over, the Shu Jishi's examination began.  Among the 197 Jinshi in the second and third grades, 15 were selected. They first went to the cabinet to observe politics and familiarize themselves with the situation, and then became relatively low-level Zhongshu Sheren, that is, ordinary clerical staff in the cabinet.

    In the future, all Zhongshu Sheren will be champions, second places, Tanhua and Shujishi. Let them be familiar with state affairs, and then they will be sent to other places as deputy county officials, and they will be promoted back to the central court step by step.

    This is very different from the Ming Dynasty. This group of top Jinshi of the Ming Dynasty was directly thrown into the Imperial Academy.  The first and third are those who compile books, read history, assist the cabinet or organize government affairs, and give lectures to the emperor and prince.??, Greet Your Majesty!  Mao Fan clasped his hands, very excited. Unexpectedly, he was summoned because he asked for a ban on foot binding.

    Zhao Han asked: "Are you from Zhejiang?

    Mao Fan replied: "Your Majesty, I am a native of Jiashan County, Jiaxing Prefecture. He graduated from Hangzhou University and ranked 16th among the top three in this subject."

    Zhao Han suddenly smiled, he likes the scholars cultivated by the new education: "A lot of women in Jiashan have their feet bound?

    Mao Fan replied carefully: "Jiashan County is located between Jiaxing Prefecture and Songjiang Prefecture.  Prosperity, and many people who become rich because of business, those who become rich,

    Just imitate the gentry to bind their daughter's feet, and regard it as an upper-class tutor to abide by, "

    Well, too much money is causing trouble.

    Mao Fan continued: "I don't know where it came from, but the binding of feet is getting tighter and tighter. These rich merchants are extremely face-saving. They think that the smaller the binding of their daughters, the more authentic they are, so they learn the new foot-binding method one after another.  A bound woman appeared in the county town, and a rich family paid a lot of money to bind her daughter's feet. I once saw with my own eyes that a young girl of a classmate was bound so that the bones of her feet were completely dislocated, and her feet were red, swollen and pus-filled.  Showing off his strict family education and elegant family background."quot;

    "It's really hateful!" Zhao Han said angrily.

    Mao Fan said: "Foot binding is an elegant thing. Everyone loves golden lotus feet, but if they are bound to the bone, it will not only spoil the scenery, but also make people hate it!

    The mainstream foot-binding method in the Ming Dynasty was divided into two schools, the North and the South.

    In northern foot binding, you don¡¯t even need to bend your toes, just wrap them more slender. In southern foot binding, you need to buckle your four toes inwards, which is slightly deformed, but it still won¡¯t hurt your body.

    The entanglement method that hurts the muscles and bones began in the late Ming Dynasty and spread widely in the middle of the Qing Dynasty.

    Zhao Han asked: "What reason do you think should be used to prohibit women's footbinding?"

    Mao Fan said: "It hurts the peace of heaven,"

    ? Zhao Han shook his head: "Haven't you read it? The body is hairy and skinned, and it is the parents who dare not hurt it. This is the beginning of filial piety, Mr. Xiang!"

    "The minister is here," Li Xiangjun stepped forward.

    Zhao Han said: "Women who intend to bind their feet to the point of damaging their bodies will be regarded as unfilial daughters. They cannot study, become officials, or marry officials! Their husbands are not allowed to obtain a franchise license. Once found, they will be taken back immediately!"

    Zhao Han likes to use magic to defeat magic. He is very comfortable with Cheng Zhu Neo Confucianism, and he is also very comfortable with Confucian classics.

    Having said that, of course those who bind their feet are unfilial daughters, even if their parents allow it.

    Nowadays, foot binding is still limited to wealthy families. Once bound women are not allowed to study, become officials, marry officials, or even marry businessmen with franchise rights, look at those bastard fathers who dare to bind their daughters' feet!

    Moreover, it is difficult for them to marry if they are labeled as unfilial daughters.

    ? As for the women whose feet have been disabled due to foot binding, it is very embarrassing, so I can only live with them, but fortunately there are not many of them at this time.
