People live in the Ming Dynasty, evil spirits are soaring into the sky

Chapter 170 The despicable civil servant has his mind set on the imperial examination! !

When Chen Han saw the official standing up, he didn't wait for him to speak.

Chen Han first said: "Which official present feels that this method of solving the clan is not suitable, then use your own salary to support those clans."

As soon as Chen Han said this, the official who had just stepped back immediately retreated.

The reason why he came forward was because his daughter married a certain clan member and just belonged to the sixth generation.

The most important thing is that I just got married a while ago.

Unlike other clans, his son-in-law's family can still receive some salary, and the son-in-law can also receive it himself.

And his salary is even higher than his current salary.

So when he heard Chen Han solve the problem in this way, he immediately stood up to refute.

And Chen Hantai understood what these officials were going to do.

To put it bluntly, if they stick their butts out, Chen Han will know what they are going to do.

The interests of many people among them will definitely be harmed, and we can also foresee that some clans that benefit from it will definitely cause trouble next.

So Chen Han had already made plans to fight against these clans.

Fight, there is nothing you cannot fight for.

Anyway, now he doesn’t have to worry about having too many debts, and he doesn’t have to worry about having too many lice.

The issues of the clan and the assessment of officials were all resolved in this court session.

The issue of Chen Han being promoted to a higher position and the arrangement of generals in Liaodong were also solved perfectly this time. Chen Han's side was overjoyed, but the officials all looked unhappy.

no others.

After Chen Han's examination law and the Tax Inspection Department are brought down, officials will surely be filled with mourners.

In the past hundred years, officials have no longer considered the issue of salary compensation.

Because the salary is not even enough for them to eat a meal.

So they never take it to heart.

There are two groups that bring in the most money. One is participating in smuggling with smuggling merchants in the southeast or smuggling with Shanxi merchants in Shanxi, but they have been cut off by Chen Han;

The other piece was various apportionments, which were also cut off by Chen Han.

From now on, let alone local government officials, they can only live in collective dormitories and be managed by the collective.

Even they, the capital officials, can't get a lot of bribes from below.

Why do officials working in the capital receive so many bribes?
It's nothing more than promotion.

Now Chen Han's assessment of officials has changed from manual control to quantitative indicators.

Although it cannot be said to be absolute, it can definitely prevent more than 70% of corruption and bribery.

As for how these officials will strive for more salaries, it depends on whether they work hard enough.

If you work hard to meet the standards and pass or above, you can get a lot of rewards.

For example, if an individual reaches a passing grade or above, he or she will be awarded only one month's salary.

There is also a collective reward. If you strive for advancement in the collective reward, you can also be rewarded with one month's salary, which is two months.

If you calculate it this way, you can actually get a lot of salary.

And now that the imperial court still provides them with food and accommodation, what else do they want?
It is impossible for Chen Han to increase their salaries.

After leaving the court, except for Chen Han and Zhang Juzheng who were all smiling, all the other officials were like eggplants beaten by frost.

Because officials all know that good times will be much rarer in the future. Under cruel officials like Chen Han, life will become even more difficult for everyone.

The residence of Duke Yansheng in the capital.

Kong Shangxian had just regained some energy at this time.

Officials who had left court quickly came over to visit Kong Shangxian to see if he was out of sorts with anger.

These civil servants were very concerned about Kong Shangxian's respect.

Fortunately, Chen Han only made him vomit blood this time.

This guy has been nourished by delicacies from the mountains and seas all year round, and his physical fitness is quite good, and he is not mad to death.

The officials told the whole story about the examination method that Chen Han worked out in the court, as well as the establishment of a separate tax inspection department.

The officials present were all angry, and they all yelled at Chen Han.

When they scolded Chen Han, they simply said that if Chen Han continued to act like this, he would destroy the scholarly tradition of elegance.

It may even directly damage the prominent position of Confucianism.

The meaning is obvious, that is, Kong Shangxian is asked to summon scholars from all over the world to protest.

An official said hoarsely. "My lord, if you don't curb cruel officials like Chen Han, then we, the scholars, will be reduced to the same status as ordinary people from now on.

If that's the case, then why did I wait for Han Chuang to study hard for ten years?
Is it just to farm with the hoe and the bunch of untouchables?
The thousand-year tradition of scholars of our generation not to interact with Bai Ding will be cut off by such cruel officials. They also ask the Duke of the country to make suggestions for scholars of our generation. "

As soon as the official finished speaking, several officials stood up and loudly accused Chen Han. Doing so would inevitably lead to outrage.

Kong Shangxian knew exactly what these officials wanted to express.

He waved his hand and asked everyone to sit down: "Everyone, please be patient. This time, I will return to Qufu first, but I can provide you with an idea.

The Enke exam in August this year was the first Enke exam since His Majesty took over Yu Yu.

This move is not only related to the well-being of scholars in the world, but also related to the stability of the world after His Majesty ascends the throne.

If in this Enke exam, we scholars can make some contributions.

For example, what will happen if not many people take the ENKO exam? "

As soon as this guy finished speaking, the civil servants understood what he said.

Because the Enke exam is related to the face of a new emperor after he ascends the throne.

On the one hand, it is to select talents for the imperial court. On the other hand, the Enke Examination is the most important ceremony for the emperor to show his kindness to the scholars in the world.

If the scholars in the world do not give the emperor face and do not come to take the Enke exam, it is equivalent to the scholars slapping the emperor's face.

At that time, the emperor will be extremely embarrassed, and he will be held accountable.

And where does the responsibility come from?
It was Chen Han who instituted the system of sharing grains between the peasants and the gentry, as well as the method of taking the imperial examination, which led to the destruction of the tradition of scholars and the inability of scholars to take the imperial examination. Then who will govern the world in the future?

Wouldn't it be better to use this method to force Chen Han to stop the new method?
The officials all praised him upon hearing this.

"Ginger is still old and spicy. The Duke of Guo really woke up the dreamer with his words."

"Yes, I was waiting in the court. No matter how hard I argued with him, I couldn't take the exam with Enke. It is the most direct way for scholars in the world to refuse to take the exam."

"Then now, hurry up and help him publicize it, let those scholars know that only by getting rid of cruel officials like Chen Han can everyone live a good life."

After the matter was resolved, all the officials present celebrated.

It's just that they may never have imagined that because of their decision, another reform of Chen Han would be implemented more smoothly...
