Chapter 199: Some people rush to the examination room at starry night, and some people resign and return to their hometown
Liu Mingzhi handed the document in his hand to Xiao Chengzi who was standing aside, and raised his eyes again to glance at the officials in the palace.
"Except for the Northland matter, who among you dear friends has any other reports to report?"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, I have something to report."
Liu Mingzhi looked at Du Chenghao, the official minister, who came out and nodded with a smile: "Yes."
"Your Majesty, the Spring Examination will begin in less than ten days. Now all the candidates from various prefectures and prefectures who have come to the capital to take the exam are waiting for the imperial court to start the exam.
However, Your Majesty has not yet designated who will serve as the fifteen examiners for the general examination. This is related to the future talents of the imperial court. I would like to ask Your Majesty to appoint the fifteen examiners as soon as possible.
This is the list of examiners tentatively drawn up by my veteran minister, please take a look at it."
Liu Mingzhi took the document from Du Chenghao's hand and walked aside with a half-smile under the gaze of the officials and opened the document in his hand.
Looking at the fifteen officials recommended by Du Chenghao on the document, Liu Mingzhi narrowed his eyes and pondered.
After a while, Liu Mingzhi gently closed the document in his hand: "It's generally OK, but there are a few examiners who are slightly inappropriate. I will send someone to send you the specific list after careful consideration."
"Yes, I understand."
"Are there any other documents?"
"Your Majesty is wise, I still have something to report."
"allow!"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, the Department of Civil Service Examination assesses the performance of officials of all levels and state governments every three years. Some officials are promoted, some are demoted, and some retire and return to their hometowns.
Nowadays, the promotion and demotion of officials have been completed, except for the old officials who have retired and returned to their hometowns.
After the veteran officials reported the officials from various prefectures to the court, they asked Your Majesty to allow them to retire and return to their hometowns, and copied and summarized the list of officials.
As for the biographies and performance files of many colleagues, there are too many files, and the veteran minister does not carry them with him.
After the dynasty is over, the old minister will have someone deliver it to Your Majesty's house from the official office.
Please take a look at the list of many colleagues who have requested to retire and return home."
Liu Mingzhi once again took the document from Du Chenghao and read it carefully.
The names on this document were densely written for seven or eight pages. Liu Mingzhi roughly scanned about hundreds of people.
"Stop it for now, and I will decide whether to allow them to retire and return to their hometowns after verifying the documents of these officials."
"Yes! I understand, veteran."
"Do you have any more books to play?"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, I have lost my ability."
"Well, take a seat."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Is there any other lover who has a book to write?"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, I have something to report."
"allow."
"Your Majesty, near the end of last year, your Majesty ordered the veteran ministers from the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household Affairs to start construction of the Dalong Academy of Science, which will be completed in less than three months.
The old minister dares to ask Your Majesty, who should hold the so-called post of President of the Academy of Sciences?
Only when the veteran knows who the director of the Academy of Sciences is, can he contact and discuss with him and build the most suitable Academy of Sciences according to his needs.
After all, I don’t know exactly how the Academy of Sciences is used and what its responsibilities are. If it is built directly like the Imperial College, then the Academy of Sciences will be dissatisfied and it will be troublesome to rework it."
Liu Mingzhi's eyes lit up: "Construction has started so soon?"
"How dare I neglect the matters that Your Majesty specially told me to do?"
"Old Ai Qing, thank you for your hard work. All the Ai Qings from the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household Affairs have also worked hard."
"I don't dare. This is my duty."
"The first president of the Academy of Sciences was Wanyan Feixiong, the former young prince of the Kingdom of Jin, who was also one of my brothers-in-law.
Some of you have seen this person, some have not. Although his knowledge cannot be said to be that he knows astronomy and geography, he is knowledgeable about yin and yang, but he has his own uniqueness in science.
He is the best choice to serve as the first president of the Academy of Sciences.
After the court is dismissed, I will inform him and ask him to take the time to go to your Ministry of Industry to discuss the construction of the Academy of Sciences."
"Old minister, I understand.
By the way, out of curiosity, I would like to take the liberty to ask Your Majesty what rank the official in this court is?"
Liu Mingzhi raised his eyebrows, gently turned the ring on his thumb and began to think.
The Academy of Sciences is one of the foundations of rejuvenating the country. Liu Mingzhi still hopes that Feixiong can bring about a vigorous industrial revolution for him!
Considering the special nature of the Academy of Sciences, if the official position is lowered, it may be inconvenient to handle many things in the future.
Then we can only give it a higher grade and gain more real power.
"Being in the third rank, he also holds the title of Left Assistant Minister of the Ministry of War."
As soon as Liu Mingzhi finished speaking, all the officials were in an uproar. Even the first- and second-rank ministers were surprised and looked at Young Master Liu with curious eyes.
Not to mention some officials below. They thought that the president of the Academy of Sciences was just a fifth-grade official position.
Who would have thought that Liu Mingzhi would give him such a high rank all of a sudden. The third rank was enough, and he would even be awarded the title of Left Minister of the Ministry of War.
For them, if they can sit in this position, it will be a great thing for them to soar to the sky and bring glory to their ancestors.
If they really didn't know what the so-called Academy of Sciences was doing, they would have volunteered immediately and asked Liu Mingzhi to let them and others take up the position of the first president of the Academy of Sciences.
The Minister of Industry and Industry came to his senses from his astonishment, and looked at Young Master Liu with twitching eyes: "This...ahem...your majesty is wise."
"Haha... all your ministers will understand in the future. Is there any other beloved minister who has a report to report?"
"I have no intention of reporting."
"Then leave the court! I don't care about food today!"
The officials laughed lightly and stood up and bowed.
"I respectfully bid farewell to Your Majesty. Long live, long live, long live."
Liu Mingzhi's figure disappeared behind the gate of the back hall, and all the officials got up and left Qinzheng Hall one after another.
Liu Mingzhi returned to the harem and changed into a Confucian shirt, then rushed out of the palace accompanied by Liu Song.
"Master, are we still the same as before?"
Liu Mingzhi glanced at the majestic palace gate and nodded silently with sour eyes.
"Yes, it's still the same as before, you sell books and I tell fortunes.
Diligence is diligence, but you have to make a living. Why do I have so many wives, children, and children, and they all need me to support them!
Let’s go!”
"Hey, Master, please come first."
Liu Mingzhi slept on the recliner and stared at the sky in trance. Not a single guest came to the door until sunset.
After sighing that life was not easy, Liu Mingzhi greeted Liu Song and started to close the stall and go home.
After Liu Mingzhi returned to the house and informed Wanyan Feixiong about the Academy of Sciences, he ate his midnight snack and then dived into the study and started to get busy.
You are so busy deciding on the list of examiners for the Spring Examination, and looking through the documents of those officials who have retired and returned to their hometowns sent by the Ministry of Personnel.
It wasn't until the rooster crowed twice in the courtyard that Liu Mingzhi blew out the candles on the desk and fell into a deep sleep.
The years passed by quietly, as if in the blink of an eye, and the time came for the Spring Examination on March 1st.
Students taking exams all over the world have been waiting for this day for too long.
In front of the Gua stall outside Penglai Restaurant, Liu Mingzhi was holding tea and looking at the students swarming on the street towards Gongyuan with a smile.
These scholars wearing Confucian robes include young talents in their prime, serious and reserved young talents, and middle-aged literary students who are slightly twilight.
Raising his hand to drink all the tea in the cup, Liu Mingzhi clicked his tongue twice and put down the cup.
"Some people rush to the examination room, while some people resign and return to their hometown.
The vast world and all the living beings are all within it!"
Taking one last look at the pedestrians on the street, Liu Mingzhi leaned back, slept on the recliner, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
