Chapter 234 The Prince of Flowing Water, The Iron Concubine 37
After becoming an empress, the first thing Yan Ying did every day when she opened her eyes was to read the memorial, and the last moment she closed her eyes, she was still reading the memorial.
It is also a social animal, compared to exhausting me and exhausting others, Yan Ying decisively chose the latter.
Numerous imperial decrees were issued from the imperial study, either to promote officials, or on the way to promote officials.
After being so busy for half a month, Yan Ying felt that she was about to collapse. She looked at a table of memorials, full of resentment, where is the great talent who can govern the country for me?
We can't go on like this anymore, we have to hold imperial examinations and call for virtuous ministers.
The first event of the founding of the Huaxia Kingdom was the female emperor Kai Enke, which quickly spread across the country, and there were many people talking about it. It is the best time for a poor family to enter the court.
Numerous scholars rushed towards Kyoto.
Yan Ying taught Prime Minister Yan Liang to be responsible for the imperial examination, and she led the newly recruited officials from the Ministry of Households to observe and learn the cultivation of new improved varieties in Huangzhuang, and handed out a planting manual. A manual adapted from the planting book.
Let these small officials do it themselves, one acre of land per person, and when the land is planted, they can go out to teach the people.
With the Empress personally following her, who would dare to neglect her.
The 200 household officials worked for five consecutive days, with tired backs and backaches. They worked during the day and recited the planting manual at night. After ten days, each of them lost weight. However, this kind of practical experience gave them a better understanding of the land Renew one layer of cognition.
After passing the inspection, the first group of people left with the grain seeds issued by Yan Ying. Yan Ying took the agricultural plan and divided the states and counties into regions.
The first group of people taught the people how to plant grain, the second group learned eddy fertilization, continuous stubble, and interplanting, and the third group learned field management and harvesting.
These little officials who have read the book originally thought that they could enter the household department, the most lucrative place, and they would make a fortune. They never thought that they would be fooled into farming by the empress. After two months, I went back to study again.
From grain seeds to soil to vegetables to orchards, this learning is a lifetime.
The distribution of grain seeds to various places in the future can be regarded as half of the solution to the rations of the people. After returning to the palace, Yan Ying took out the blueprints and summoned craftsmen from the Ministry of Industry to develop a new type of loom. In the future, several sericulture and textile factories will be developed in the south.
In addition to looms, there is also an urgent need for roads, cement, bricks, and house repairs.
Yan Ying, who was immersed in writing the plan on the Long case, looked up at Jingming: "How much money is there in the East Factory?"
Jing Ming bent down slightly, and reported the truth: "After the minister ransacked the family of those corrupt officials and wiped out the family, the family property that was confiscated was about 2 million yuan."
Yan Ying frowned, and thought about the 9 states, 358 prefectures, and 1557 counties, not counting the townships: "Is [-] million yuan enough to repair a house?"
Jingming thought that the emperors of all dynasties preferred to build palaces, and wanted to build a splendid atmosphere. [-] million yuan is indeed a little small, so he couldn't help but said: "It should be enough, why don't I find some corrupt officials and ask them to donate some more?"
Yan Ying gave him a white look: "I'm not Qin Shihuang, and I want to build a three-hundred-mile Afang Palace. After this imperial examination, I want to build an official school in a prefecture or county. It doesn't matter where you are from, and there is no tuition fee. Children from all over the country are welcome. "Enrollment"
Jingming's eyelids twitched violently three times after hearing this, and he secretly complained: "Your house is much more powerful than Qin Shihuang's Efang Palace."
Jing Ming made some calculations, he studied a government school, hired a teacher to teach students, and there was no tuition fee. This is estimated to be a money-burning business that has continued to lose money for several years.
This is not over yet, I heard Yan Ying on the Long case talking about opening a hospital, training medical students first, coming to a few more technical colleges, and...
Listening to Jing Ming's nerves popped in his head, could he spend the bad money he worked so hard on embezzlement and house raids like this?
Your Majesty, don't study, if you continue to study a few more house colleges, it is estimated that you will be awarded the poorest emperor award in history.
Yan Ying probably understood Jing Ming's ugly face, and stopped talking, but wrote down all these future facilities related to people's livelihood.
Three months passed in a flash, and the imperial examination with Prime Minister Yan Liang as the examiner began.
About 7000 people participated in the imperial examination this time. After nine days of closed examinations, the general examination ended, and the students stayed in Kyoto to wait for the results of the examination.
The examiner corrected the papers day and night. After 20 days, Yan Ying got the top ten papers and looked at them again and again, thinking inwardly: The beater I want is not here, hehe.
In the palace examination, Yan Ying hand-picked the No. 1 champion of the imperial examination: Wu Xu, the second place: Li Minghao, and the third prize: Mo Yu, and then the court issued an imperial edict that shocked all civil and military officials.
Yan Ying directly recruited [-] jinshi into the court as officials, and then divided the [-] tributes who failed the list according to their talents, learning and morality, and made these [-] tributes become civil servants with the salary of the court to teach in government schools? ? ?
Seven thousand candidates participated in the imperial examination, and 400 people were admitted at one time, which can be said to have set a record for the highest number of admissions in history.
Not only the civil and military officials were shocked, but also the scholars who came to take the imperial examination were stunned, and they were all stunned when they saw the appointment letters in their hands! ! !
