Chapter six hundred and eleven let go

"Your Majesty...Hanlin, Hanlin Academy, now the preparations are completed and completed..."

In the Hanlin Academy, Hanlin Grand Secretary Lu Chu was introducing the preparations for the Hanlin Academy to the emperor. Because this person was a little stuttering, he stuttered.

Yuwen Wen looked at the "first top scorer in the imperial examination in history" and the "first top scorer in history" without any displeasure on his face. Lu Chu's six years of experience in his career proved that he had real talent and knowledge, so a minor problem of stuttering is nothing.

The problem is that in the future, the Grand Secretary, as "debating contestants" in the Secretariat, and Ping Zhang from Menxia Province, will probably be bad when participating in political debates.

However, Yuwen Wen felt that stuttering was beneficial, that was, he could use intermittent statements to disrupt the other party's debate momentum during fierce debates, and make the "debating contestants" in the other party's team angry.

When debating in the political affairs hall, it is not a shrew who scolds the streets, no personal attacks are allowed, and no interruptions are allowed, so Lu Chu's stuttering problem will not be a weakness.

Yuwen Wen was inspecting the Hanlin Academy and listening to Lu Chu's explanation. He was very satisfied with the current situation of the Hanlin Academy. He also tried the telephone system in the Hanlin Academy, looked at the offices of the Grand Secretary and the place where he stayed when he was on duty at the Hanlin Academy.

In short, the advancement of science and technology has significantly improved the overall living standards of society, which is particularly prominent in Chang'an.

Not to mention elsewhere, in the Secretariat, there is "24-hour hot water supply", "air conditioning" in summer and "heating" in winter, which is enough to make the officials on duty on the palace comfortable to live.

Of course, working for a "big boss" must be worthy of the salary and benefits given by the "big boss". It is necessary to pay more time to do things on weekdays.

If the Secretariat of the Secretariat of the Secretariat was the emperor's secretary, then the Grand Secretary and Bachelor of the Hanlin Academy and the Privy Council were the emperor's consultants, providing "advisory services" in civil and military affairs when the emperor made decisions.

The candidates for civil and military bachelors naturally cover talents in literature, military affairs, literature, water conservancy, machinery manufacturing, engineering construction, astronomy and geography, and various disciplines.

In this way, we face the problem of selection criteria.

In the Hanlin Academy, how can bachelors of literature reach the height of emperor consultant in terms of "literature"?

First, literature depends on knowledge, and one of the criteria for evaluating the level of knowledge is the imperial examination achievements.

Although there are disadvantages to determining the high and low based on scores (only fractions) , after comprehensive consideration, this is the fairest (relative) evaluation standard. Therefore, if you want to become a major in the Hanlin Academy and a bachelor's degree (scientific), you must be a Jinshi.

Second, it depends on the grades, resumes, and bachelor's selection of engineering bachelor's degree, and whether they have experience in large-scale projects, steamships, and train management.

Third, academic categories, such as selecting bachelors who are proficient in astronomy and geography and various disciplines, either look at their imperial examination scores or look at their "number of papers" published in journals.

Fourth, in education, if you want to be selected as a bachelor's degree, you must have experience working in the public school system (state or above). It doesn't matter whether you are an official or not.

Of course, the Grand Secretary above the bachelor's degree is the "signature" of the Hanlin Academy. Since it is a sign, it must have a good reputation.

Fanyang Lu Chu, a family of Fanyang, who was born in the five surnames and seven hopes, had a county reputation and scored (the top scorer). He became an official by studying hard and taking exams. He is a good example. Therefore, he was not only elected as a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy by Yuwen Wen, but also promoted to a grand senator, as the "leading leader" of the Hanlin Academy.

This arrangement is to improve the status of the imperial examination and guide the changes in the composition of civil servants. In the future, the proportion of bureaucrats from the imperial examinations among civil servants will become larger and larger, and the aristocratic politics will be completely cut off.

Of course, the imperial examinations in the new era cannot go to a dead end like the eight-legged essay. Therefore, the imperial examination bureaucrats in the new era must be "each about both literature and science", and must also have certain scientific qualities and a broad foreign perspective.

The martial arts bachelors in the Privy Council also have relevant selection systems. The reason why they need to select personnel in a system rather than the emperor’s arbitrarily appointed was that Yuwen Wen wanted to set a good institutional example for his children and grandchildren.

In a short time, when the two institutes of the Secretariat are completed, the game between the Secretariat and the Ministry of Education will begin.

The edict drafted by the Secretariat must be reviewed by the Menxia Provincial Censorate. If the participating parties think the edict is inappropriate, they must give clear reasons and list them, rather than vaguely "I just disagree!"

At this time, the Grand Secretary of the two academies who attended the "Edict Review Meeting" would be the pros and controversial parties and representatives of the opposition (Pingzhang of the Censorate and Political Participating in Political Affairs).

The Grand Secretary won the debate (judged according to relevant systems), and the opposition’s reasons for opposition are invalid. When the re-vote to vote for the approval of the edict, they cannot boycott this reason, and the edict must be passed.

If the debate is lost, the imperial edict will be sent back to the Secretariat and start over again.

Such an audit method will obviously reduce the review speed of the imperial edict, but Yuwen Wen believes that such a value must be paid, because this involves institutional game first, and a country can only be managed by systems to last forever.

Secondly, in order to avoid the conflict between the Secretariat and the Ministry of Education, he formulated relevant systems to reduce the frequency of disputes as much as possible and improve administrative efficiency.

Seeing Lu Chu with a firm face and several grand sects eager to try, Yu Wen Wen was very satisfied and full of confidence in the game under the future system.

......

Privy Council, Yu Wen Wen stood in front of a huge sand table, studying the sand table while listening to the Zhongshu Order. Privy Councilor Wang introduced the deduction process. The newly established Privy Council has not yet begun to participate in decision-making, but has begun to perform an important responsibility, that is, "strategic deduction".

The deduction topic is the future battle to destroy Goguryeo. The content of the Privy Council is to deduce how the imperial court can effectively mobilize water and sea transportation (steam ships) and land transportation (trains), and put a large amount of personnel and materials from the Central Plains to the peninsula in a short period of time.

In the future, there will be a strategic deduction for fighting against the East and West Turks, and then a plan will be formed and archived and reserved. This is one of the daily affairs of the Privy Council.

The Privy Council is responsible for assisting the emperor in military affairs and edicts, and he must engage in political and political games with the Pingzhang of the Menxia Province. However, in addition, he also has a function, which is to assist the emperor in war.

Yuwen Wen himself has excellent military qualities and great military achievements. He can directly command the army to fight and does not need any consultants.

When the prince succeeded to the throne, the prince had at least brought troops to fight wars and would not rely too much on military consultants (bachelors). But when the grandchildren became emperor, they would probably be a military novices.

Then, the task of the Privy Council is very arduous. To a certain extent, it is necessary to make strategic decisions on behalf of the emperor, or to follow up on the battle situation at any time after a certain battle occurs, explain to the emperor, and predict the development of the war situation.

To avoid the ignorant command of the military, the young white emperor was indisputable. When the official army was at the upper hand, he was excited and asked the front-line commander to lead the troops to attack with all his might to win a great victory. When the official army was at the lower hand, the front-line commander was also in a panic and asked the front-line commander to "avoid the battle and protect the ship."

This is not a worrying thing about Yuwen Wen. With the popularity of telegrams, the emperors and ministers in the center are fully capable of remotely controlling frontier wars at the technical and hardware level, but such remote control often only leads to bad things.

Professional matters must be handled by professionals, so the General Staff and its related systems in the later generations appeared in the form of the Privy Council.

After all, telegraphs (wired telegraphs) have already existed, the army has begun to fully firearm, and the railway network is gradually taking shape. The General Staff, which has also emerged, has also been supported by technical hardware.

When the Privy Council starts to operate, Yu Wen Wen will not express direct opinions on any strategic and combat-level military decisions in the court. As long as the strategy and combat decisions made by the Privy Council have been deduced, he will not reject them.

Yuwen Wen wants to institutionalize military decision-making, to reduce the role of the emperor in military decision-making (strategic, combat levels) (not marginalization), and to take action to set an example for his children and grandchildren:

After more than ten years of war, the ancestors who claimed to be undefeated had to follow the decisions of the Privy Council. How could future generations act alone?

He did not want countless soldiers to be killed in vain because of his incompetent children and grandchildren.

Yuwen Wen has the knowledge, knowledge, ability, and self-control, and will not abandon the government. Therefore, it is not impossible to establish a decision-making system that revolves around the emperor, but it can also maximize the efficiency of decision-making.

However, his ability, energy, and self-control does not mean that his children and grandchildren have it.

Although Yuwen Wen can’t control the affairs behind him, it is indeed possible to establish a healthy and effective decision-making system. The first thing is to learn to let go.
