Chapter 173： Abolished imperial examination

The next day, Wu Changqing took the time to meet Qian Qianyi.

When I saw Qian Qianyi for the first time, Wu Changqing looked at him and found that this guy was radiant and looked very energetic, and he deserves to be a person who can have a baby with Liu Ru when he is sixty years old.

"Master Qian, have you cherished any good health secrets."

Wu Changqing teased him.

Qian Qianyi was embarrassed when he heard the words. He did not expect that a man in power with an army of hundreds of thousands would ask such unserious topics.

"There is no secret. It is nothing more than getting up early and going to bed early and having a reasonable diet. With Qian's heart and fat body, he is more open to everything."

Qian Qianyi said vaguely.

"I've read your book. Since you also support new-style education, let's be a courtesy assistant for the time being. The main job is to use your influence to smoothly phase out old-style education and change all to new-style education."

For now, the imperial examination is still orthodox, the mainstream, and the university hall is just a minority. There are only more than 1,500 students in the entire university hall, which is only a small number compared to the hundreds of thousands of scholars studying the Four Books and Five Classics across the country.

The imperial examination system, which lasted for thousands of years, cannot be eliminated immediately because it is backward. It will inevitably cause an earthquake in the reading circle and cause a large number of people with impaired interests to resist.

These scholars make troubles, and it is more troublesome than the common people make troubles. After all, they are all educated people with flexible minds and scheming.

With a little bit of encouragement, the people are easily deceived and then used as gunmen.

The elimination process must be gradual and gentle, and must not cause social unrest.

And this requires a capable person to execute it. Wei Ziwen is obviously not good. His prestige is too low, and those young and energetic scholars will not convince him at all.

But Qian Qianyi is different. He used to be the leader of the Donglin Party. He was very prestigious in the literati circle and wrote very good articles.

It will be easier for him to come forward and write some articles to subtly guide the thinking of those scholars and let them receive a new type of education.

"This may not be easy. After all, the imperial examination has been implemented for thousands of years."

Qian Qianyi's scalp was a little numb. He didn't expect Wu Changqing to be so radical. He even wanted to abolish the traditional imperial examination. This was going to cut the future of countless scholars.

Imagine that some people who have studied the Four Books and Five Classics for more than ten years and twenty years have waited for the imperial examination to turn over and become officials, and the court suddenly said that they would not take the imperial examination. Wouldn't it be a waste of decades of hard work? .

People who are not strong enough in their hearts will certainly not be able to withstand such a blow.

Either suicide or rebellion, in short, there will definitely be a lot of turbulence.

Qian Qianyi supports new-style education, but he has never thought of a comprehensive reform. The educational model he envisioned is still based on imperial examinations, and then supplemented by new-style education.

He never expected that Wu Changqing would be so courageous that he would completely abolish the imperial examination and eliminate the old-style education.

With his insights, he has no confidence that the new education will completely replace the Four Books and Five Classics.

"Take your time, you don't want you to do it in one step, as long as you do it in this direction, it's good to be able to complete it in three to five years."

Of course Wu Changqing knows how crazy his approach is. This is the same as the sudden announcement of the abolition of the college entrance examination and the abolition of universities in the 21st century.

This kind of policy that destroys people's future will surely damage the interests of many people and cause social unrest.

However, Wu Changqing had to do this. If the imperial examination is not abolished, others will not see his determination to promote new-style education. Continuing to retain the imperial examination will also waste countless scholars' time.

He has expounded the importance of physical chemistry many times in the People's Daily, but there are only a few hundred people who come to apply for the university entrance exam in each issue.

Only when those scholars completely stop thinking about taking the imperial examination will they bite their teeth to learn new knowledge.

If there are more people learning new knowledge, the probability of talents will be greater.

There are hundreds of thousands of scholars across the country, what a plate of great potential this is, even if the talent is one in a hundred, there are thousands of people.

"If you don't want to, I still have a position as a memorial doctor in the Ministry of Rites, you can choose for yourself."

Seeing that this guy didn't dare to take up the task, Wu Changqing gave another choice.

His meaning is also very clear. If you want to be a high official, you have to take on some important tasks and do some difficult tasks. If you want to be free, don't expect to enter the center of power.

The Minister of Etiquette is a high-ranking official of the third grade, and a further step is the Book of Etiquette, an absolute authority and the center of the imperial court.

And the Ritual Physician is only a middle-level official position with a five-grade positive, and the priest of the temple is a leisurely position with no power. It's not bad to be used for the elderly, but Qian Qianyi spent so many days studying and writing books, not to find a position for the elderly, he still has ambitions.

If it wasn't for the sake of becoming a master, where would he need to be an official, the family assets are enough for him to provide for the elderly, and it would be no problem to marry another Qinhuai girl.

"I choose to face the difficulties, share the worries for the general, and play the remaining role of my old bone."

Qian Qianyi chose the former without hesitation. Before that, he was stunned, mainly because Wu Changqing's reform was too shocking.

However, no matter how much resistance this reform has, Qian Qianyi will also choose the position of minister. He knew that as long as he did this thing, it would be 100% to be promoted to the Book of Etiquette.

Being able to be an extremely human minister again at the end of his life is enough to be recorded in the annals of history, and he can die without regret.

How many people have spent their entire lives unable to reach the position of Liubu Shangshu. And he now has a chance to get involved for the second time.

He doesn't fight for this kind of position, and some people fight for it.

"Master Qian still has this ambition that is commendable, so I can safely delegate this burden to Master Qian. I hope Master Qian can devote all his energy to this and stop mingling with the Donglin Party's things. ."

Wu Changqing reminded him that he didn't like his people to form parties.

After forming a party, officials in that group tend to put the party's interests first and the court's interests second when doing things.

Whether it is the Donglin Party, the Chu Party, the Qi Party and other groups, he will ban them one by one.

If there is a party, there can only be one imperial party, a party with him as the core in everything.

"The officials and the Donglin people have no ties to each other, and they are willing to be the lone minister of the general."

Qian Qianyi stated that this is tantamount to an oath of allegiance.

A person in his sixties who can be Wu Changqing's grandfather, respects Wu Changqing. In order to be an official, he was really good enough to compete with Ruan Dacheng's.
