Ming Dynasty and New Rome and Infinite Magic Machine

Chapter 1175: Roman Tutelage

"The Hanlin Academy is going to send an advisory group over?" Shangluo received a call.

[Yes, I'll answer it for you. They hope you can receive them because the court wants to know what happened here.]

“Who are they?”

[It is said that they are mainly Shujishi who are interning in the Metropolitan Procuratorate - that is to say, they may become imperial censors in the future. Also, those who come from the Hanlin Academy may become cabinet ministers in the future? ]

"That's the theory."

According to what Shangluo knew, the rule of the Ming Dynasty was "Only Jinshi can enter the Hanlin Academy, and only Hanlin can enter the Cabinet."

Although there are more than one channel for promotion, one can also obtain public office through other channels such as examinations in various departments. However, if one wants to enter the cabinet, the top of the imperial court, then this person must have served in the Hanlin Academy. In other words, he must have obtained at least the third-class Jinshi in a certain imperial examination and started his official career as a member of the Hanlin Academy.

[From a Roman perspective, the Imperial Academy is similar to the Senate? ]

"That's not wrong. The Hanlin Academy is indeed responsible for formulating policies, and its meetings are held in the Fengtian Hall. But in terms of ruling power, the Hanlin Academy is completely incomparable to the Senate."

【But your Hanlin Academy seems to be more righteous. It is the highest authority that everyone can enter through the imperial examination - or at least one of the highest authorities. Is there a limit on the term of office? I see that many Hanlins have very long terms of office. 】

"The Hanlin Academy has a term of office. The end of the term is called 'disbanding the academy'. If you keep passing the exam, you will continue to be a Hanlin. The longer you serve, the higher your rank will be, and the term will be slightly looser."

This is different from the "historical" Hanlin Academy. Generally speaking, the disbanding of the academy is only for the interns of the Shujishi, not for the senior Hanlin. But here, it seems that in order to increase mobility and keep all Hanlin in working condition, all Hanlin have to take the disbanding assessment regularly in their own academy. If you pass the exam, you will stay or get promoted, and if you fail, you will be disbanded directly.

Above the Shuchang Hall of the Shujishi, there are the Shilin Hall and Yutang Hall, as well as the highest level Taishi Hall. But in fact, they are all honorary titles, used to receive salaries. In terms of duties, all Hanlin are similar.

"The Hanlin sent later is a Shujishi from the Metropolitan Censorate, so he shouldn't come to cause trouble for me - come to think of it, why would he cause trouble for me? Now everyone just wants to resolve the matter."

[Wow, if this happened in Rome, the Senate would definitely come to hold you back. ]

"Because you Romans are going downhill, and we are going uphill - to put it bluntly, they are too busy to even bother me."

【But why isn't the Roman Senate busy?】

"Then I think this is the Romans' problem. For such a big country, if even the people who rule the country are not busy, it means that the country is not being run effectively. Just like during the Jiajing period, there was no court session, but the inner court was still busy. In the late Wanli period, if there was no court session, it would really be the same as giving up. Things are there. If you don't work on them, someone else will. They won't disappear just because no one is busy. When the entire court begins to become corrupt and can no longer handle the affairs of the country, then the court is not far from being destroyed - so, it's better to be busy."

【.】Apollonia suddenly paused,【I have a hypothesis, a hypothesis. Can Romans come to take the imperial examination?】"Why do you suddenly ask this?"

[Because it is so bright, it makes people fascinated. ]

"speak English?"

[What a shame! It's a pity that Rome died like this. There is obviously a way to save it. I want to see if it can be saved - I mean, can Rome be reorganized according to the Ming model? And in this process, the Ming Dynasty will be responsible for the training? ]

"Wait a minute, let me ask. I remember something similar happening."

——"The Romans are here to take the imperial examination?" Lu Huaiyang was loading bullets into his magazine in his lounge.

He unpacked the bullets one by one and put them into the magazine one by one, preparing for the next operation of getting medicine.

There was originally a clip for loading bullets. But Lu Huaiyang had not yet recovered from the psychological trauma of being jailbroken by Xu Fu, and he was loading bullets into the magazine one by one, just to relieve the pressure.

"In principle, it is possible, but it may not be what you think - for example, North Korea can also participate in our imperial examinations, but North Korea relies on the Bingong exam rather than the Jinshi exam. Because to take the Jinshi exam, you must first take the Juren exam, and before taking the Juren exam, you must be a Xiucai, and the Xiucai exam requires taking the exam in the place of household registration, so if you don't have a household registration, you can't take the Jinshi exam from the source."

"That's natural. It's impossible to let Romans take the imperial examination. What happens after Bingong passes the imperial examination?"

"In theory, they will take the exam for Shujishi together with Jinshi. The overall pass rate of this exam is 12%. There is no fixed number of people. Those who pass the exam will stay in the Shuchang Hall. As many people as pass the exam will stay, so Bingongke also has a chance to stay here. If they can really pass the exam, they will enter the six ministries and nine ministers to study. In fact, there are about 10 Koreans working in technical positions in the six ministries and nine ministers. If all the tributary states are counted, there are about 30 people. They can be said to be elites at the level of the entire human race. At this level, it is not impossible for the emperor himself to issue household registration certificates to them."

“What about the remaining 88%?”

"Go home. North Korea is a special case. North Korea has already annexed the country. The highest authority in North Korea is the 'Korea Xuan Government'. The Xuan Government's mission is to maintain the daily operation of North Korea, and to report to the emperor and govern the country. The members of the Xuan Government are the ones we sent back - so you say Rome also wants to use this plan? That's fine, let them come, the court will educate them into qualified talents. Their country can also prosper like North Korea, with an annual GDP growing at an ultra-high speed of 4%."

[Ahh! This is the light of heaven! Rome is saved! So what is the process? ]

"The process is quite long." Lu Huaiyang replied, "After this, I guess Japan will have to go through a similar stage. If Miss Apollonia wants to observe, she can continue to pay attention to the progress here. The general process is to enter the training state first, that is, to form an effective reorganization under the supervision of the king's teacher. After the reform is completed, it will enter the Xuanzheng state, following the same process as the Xuan government of North Korea. The whole process can be said to be selfless. The Xuanzheng state is 30% tax-1, and the training state is even tax-free. The court provides first-class administrative services without charging a penny, and the court is losing money. Don't you have to thank the court?"

【thank you! 】
