Time flies, and the flash of time passes. Net≯＞≯

In the blink of an eye, it was already the end of the third year of Longhan, and the fourth year of Longhan was about to arrive. For the students in the Beijing University of Minh, they had been admitted for two years. In the first year of Longhan, more than 8,000 of the best people finally entered the Beijing University of Minh University for further study.

Two years have passed, and there are still two years left to officially be appointed, but the two years of further study in the Beijing University has ended. In the next two years, they will have to intern in the central and local governments for two years.

“Time passes so quickly.”

In the Zhejiang Association, several classmates from the Beijing University of Zhejiang gathered together.

"Yes." A classmate said that these students from the Capital University, known as the pride of heaven, are all lucky people in the imperial examination. Especially the few who gathered here today are all new Jinshis from Zhejiang. "How do you feel about the end of the year exam this year? I think the questions this year are all a bit tricky."

The end of the year exam this year is very important, which is related to what kind of internships you will be assigned to next year. Everyone knows in their hearts that if you enter a good internship yamen and have a good internship transcript, you will definitely be assigned to better local units after a year. Then, after the last year's internship period is over, you may be able to be awarded an important position and a good official.

Officials also have various kinds of ups and downs and downs and salts. The school officials are sour officials, and the judges are powerful officials.

"I think we have a good time." Another person looked relaxed. "Since a few months ago, the Civil Service Law, the Official Assessment Law, and the Imperial Examination Law, these three bills have been submitted to the Senate and will be resolved soon. Once the three bills are passed, the formal written law will be next year. At that time, the imperial examinations, including the appointment and removal of officials, will have detailed legal provisions. According to the Official Assessment Law, once the new law is implemented, a large number of officials who fail the assessment will be eliminated next year. Isn't this just providing us with a vacancy?"

The Imperial Examination Law, Civil Servants Law, Official Assessment Law, these three bills have been known recently by everyone in the capital. The Senate is arguing every day, and major newspapers also publicize these bills and provisions every day, so that although the three laws have not been implemented, they are already well known.

Especially the people in the capital, they are the most concerned about military and national affairs. They all seem to be members of parliament. Even if they are old men basking in the sun in the streets or coachmen waiting to pick up customers on the roadside, they will discuss it together.

These three new laws are very controversial. Some people applaud, mainly those who are not in their positions, such as scholars, especially those prepared officials in the Beijing University, and peddlers and pawns also like to mix in a few words, doing rickshaws, but discussing every day how the imperial court should select imperial examinations and assess the appointment and removal of officials.

There are also many people who oppose it, mainly those who have already gotten on the bus. Most of the officials of all sizes, large and small, who have finally squeezed across the single-plank bridge and are now in office, are unwilling to see these three laws be implemented, especially the Civil Servants Law and the Official Assessment Law.

For thousands of years, it has been an official in the officialdom and will be an official for life. Unless you really don’t do it well, it is impossible to go home to eat old rice. But now it is said that if you are an official and you cannot do it well as an official, you might as well go home to sell sweet potatoes.

If you follow the assessment method, once you fail to get two tests, you will be demoted. If you fail to get two more times after the demotion, you will really have to go home and sell sweet potatoes.

Especially for such dismissal, they are not retired, and they do not have a retirement salary. At most, they have worked hard for more than ten years, but they finally went home to sell sweet potatoes. Who would be happy? Especially the officials who were dismissed because of failed the assessment have no chance to make a comeback. After they returned home, they were completely civilians and basically no chance to re-hire them.

The mood of these current officials is the same as that of the passengers taking the bus. Even if the bus is full, they always want to squeeze in when it is their turn outside. But once they squeeze in, they are more opposed to the people behind them rushing up.

"I think these three methods are good. There have always been many mediocre officials in the officialdom. There are assessment methods to supervise them. Some mediocre officials are eliminated every year and then replenish some fresh blood, so that they can stay energetic forever."

"Yes, each carrot and a pit, the official positions are fixed. If there is no vacant position for the previous person, how can the descendants have seats? Just say that in our subject, there are 600 Jinshis alone. The Peking University even recruited more than 8,000 scholars at a time. After these people came out, they were all officials. If no one had vacant seats, how could they arrange these 8,000 people to go? Can't you just keep the Hou Que?"

"I still envy Senior Huang and the others. We are still here and don't know where to go tomorrow. They just studied and worked in the Hanlin Academy two years ago. This year, Senior Huang and others were transferred from the Hanlin Academy to the Senate. Now they are already fourth-rank officials."

"Yes, Senator Huang is discussing and deliberating in the Senate three bills that determine our destiny."

The senior they mentioned is Huang Zongxi, the top scholar in the subject. The big star, whose father is a senior Donglin, his teacher is a current censor, and he also served as the president of the Fushe Society. He participated in the imperial examination and won three yuan in a row. All five brothers even passed the Jinshi. After the imperial examination, he was directly awarded the title of the eighth-rank official in the Hanlin area.

After only one year of stay in the Hanlin Academy, the two years of further study in the Beijing University were not completed. By chance, the court split the three powers and established the Senate. Huang Zongxi directly entered the Senate from the Hanlin Academy and became a fifth-rank senator. Then a few months later, the emperor promoted the senator from the fifth-rank to the fourth-rank rank, and Huang Zongxi was promoted to the third-rank rank and became a fourth-rank senator.

He seemed to have all the good things in the world. They are both from Zhejiang and from Jinshi, which are both from the same imperial examination, are completely different from Huang Zongxi. It took only two years for Huang Zongxi to pass the imperial examination and then enter the officialdom, and it was possible that they could live in their entire lives.

"I haven't seen Senior Huang for a long time. He is so busy in the Senate now." The words of the fellow villager were filled with a hint of sourness.

"Are you busy with the three bills? Sometimes you have to go to Lord Liu's mansion to study knowledge with your teacher. How can you not be busy?"

Another man said on the side, "It's not just that. I heard that a Hanlin scholar was sick a few days ago and asked for leave to recuperate. He was unable to enter the palace to teach the princes again, so he temporarily chose Senior Huang to enter the palace to give lectures."

Everyone shook their heads repeatedly, envious and jealous.

"I haven't even handed over the graduation essay yet." One person said with a wry smile.

"I didn't hand it either."

After asking, most of the dozen people had not completed their graduation essays.

"Let's go back early. The essay was not passed before the New Year, but there was no good fruit. If you couldn't do it well, you wouldn't have a chance to do it and you would be smeared directly."

The Beijing University is called the Central Official School by the people, and the names are all reserve officials. But in fact, these people are not worried at all. After the two-year further study period, they have to submit graduation essays and take the graduation exam. This graduation exam has an elimination rate of 15%, which means that no matter whether everyone writes well or not, they will eventually eliminate 1,200 people.

The elimination rate is actually very high. No matter if you are a Jinshi or a Juren before entering the school, your career will end here, just go home and sell sweet potatoes.

The competition is fierce, although for the Jinshi, they are not too worried. After all, there are only 600 Jinshi out of the eight thousand bachelors, and most of them are the best among the students.

But if you can't even complete the graduation essay, you will definitely not pass the graduation exam. Regardless of whether you are a Jinshi or not, you will have to become one of the 1,200 people who were eliminated.

Everyone was no longer interested and had to pay the bill quickly, so they called a few rickshaws to rush to the school.

Senior Huang and I took the same subject as me, and now they are all fourth-rank seniors. Is he still so embarrassed to talk nonsense here?

The 16th lunar month of the third year of Longhan.

The imperial examination court, the civil servant bill, the official assessment bill, and the three bills were held on the same day in the Senate Hall No. 1 of the Capitol building, which was recently delivered and used not long ago.

In Hall 1, all one hundred Senate arrived.

In addition to the senators, there are many officials present in the hall, including officials from the Cabinet and the Censorate, eunuchs from the Forbidden City, as well as people from major newspapers and magazines, and some of them were allowed to come and watch the vote after screening and verification.

The final vote is actually very simple, and every senator has to vote publicly to express his or her favor or objection.

Moreover, their voting was conducted at the same time, and finally the vote was recorded.

The young Senator Huang Zongxi sat in his seat without hesitation and directly wrote the word "Promise" on his ticket, then wrote his name on the back and stamped his own private seal.

Huang Zongxi supported all three bills, and he thought this was a good law.

His teacher, Censor Liu Zongzhou, also believed that this was a good law, but many people still felt that these three bills were wrong, and some officials even came to lobby and persuade him to vote against it.

A gavel knocked Huang Zongxi to wake up the distracted spirit.

The counting begins.

"Senator Chen Zilong, object."

"Senator Huang Zongxi, agree!"

"Senator's Doctor Ni Yuanlu." The official who was singing the vote sang loudly, and all parties in the hall obviously sat upright. Everyone wanted to know the attitude of the Senator immediately.

"be opposed to!"

As soon as the words fell, many voices immediately came from the hall, and everyone whispered and whispered.

As the Senate, Ni Yuanlu actually voted against it, which was much unexpected. Although the three cases were still submitted by the cabinet, everyone knows that the three bills were decided by the emperor himself. It is said that many of the terms were drafted by the emperor himself. Some people say that the emperor directly drafted the three bills, and then summoned many officials such as the cabinet, the Censorate, and then added and revised them.

Now the Senate voted against it.

"There are 100 senators in the Senate, one chief and deputy senator, a total of 102 votes. Now, 100 and two votes were cast. The votes were checked correctly and the votes were valid. As a result, the voting result of the Official Assessment Bill was 67 votes in favor and 35 votes against. The Official Assessment Bill did not obtain two-thirds of the valid votes in favor and was not passed in the end!"

There was a greater noise, and no one expected that the Senate would finally veto a bill, and the first veto was such an important bill.

Especially the votes against were thirty-five, and the Senate President even voted against them.

According to the provision that if two-thirds of the votes are passed, the Senate has a total of 102 votes, and two-thirds are 68 votes.

Now I have only received sixty-seven tickets, only one ticket is missing.

If Senator Ni Yuanlu's vote against him was changed to a vote of yes, then the vote of yes would be exactly 68, exactly two-thirds of the vote of yes.

Ni Yuanlu's vote seems so critical.

Many people were shocked by this result. The first bill was not passed by the vote for three bills. Now, no matter whether the next two passes are passed or not, this matter is probably not going to end.

Then continue to vote on the other two bills.

The next two bills also had twenty or thirty votes against them, but they all barely crossed the two-thirds line and were officially passed and became a plain law.

However, everyone's attention is still focused on the official assessment bill. Among the three bills, this bill is the most substantial bill and the most controversial bill.

But he didn't pass this bill.

Everyone even focused on Ni Wulu. As the Senate, why didn’t he keep his attitude with the emperor? Why did he object, and why did he happen to be thirty-five votes?

Some people even wonder why the Senate first votes on the official assessment bill? What is the trick here? How will such unexpected results end in the end?

According to the Han system, the bill rejected by the Senate will be shelved.

But it can also be proposed next time. If the same bill is voted against by the Senate three times, then there will be only one result. Either the emperor dissolves the Senate, reorganizes a brand new Senate, and appoints a new group of senators. Or, the House will be shelved forever and prohibits repeated submissions.

Now, will the Official Assessment Bill continue to be submitted? Will the Senate still reject it if it is expressed? If it is rejected the second time, will there be a third time submission? If it is rejected again for the third time?

So will the emperor disband this Senate directly and appoint and remove a new Senate from a new Senate to form a new Senate?

Big news, many newspaper editors and journalists who were qualified to watch this voting decision couldn't help but get excited, their eyes shining.
