Officials who are corrupt, selfish, stubborn, unprofitable, and hinder the development of the banquet? Are these officials mentioned by the emperor really talking about the Ministry of Education? Of course, the answer is not!

The emperor is clearly warning the court officials that those officials who want to stop the establishment of the Ministry of Education from the future will not have to stay in the court if they are selfish or stubborn!

There is a saying that slaves are bullying the master. This sentence is the same when used in the court. If the ministers have too much power, the emperor's rights will be divided and many things have to be followed by the ministers.

But if the emperor has concentrated power, not only has the ability and power, but also has the control of military power, then the phenomenon of ministers trying to control the emperor will never happen! And Yan Shang is such an emperor!

Although Yan Shang ascended the throne for only a few months, his decisiveness and decisiveness are still very popular. After all, as a minister, in addition to doing what he should do, he also needs to understand the will of the holy people and be an official who can do practical things and satisfy the emperor!

When the new emperor came to power, the ministers in the court naturally had their own thoughts, and there were also people who wanted to take the opportunity to control the government and then control the emperor.

Just like this, the ministers who wanted to oppose the establishment of the Ministry of Education, although there were many people who really served the country and the people, and felt that this move was too reckless, some of them were completely opposed to it. Their purpose was to control the emperor's rights and allow the emperor to give up more rights through repeated compromises.

But these people misjudged Yan Shang's temper. He did not have the patience with these ministers to be silly and depressed, nor did he want to play with the imperial power and the court balance. He was strong and arbitrary. It took him a few months to make the atmosphere of the entire court look brand new.

Although there are still voices of opposition, this was also deliberately left by Yan Shang. He did not intend to turn the entire court into his one-man show. After all, no matter how thorough he was, he always had times of negligence, so he also needed someone to give his opinions and some people to extinguish the fire. However, this level must be in his own hands!

"Emperor, I suggest that Han Ming, the Minister of Personnel, serve as the Minister of Education..." After Yan Shang repeatedly expressed his attitude, the voices of opposition finally disappeared.

"Emperor, I suggest that Grand Secretary Jiang Shuxie serve as the Minister of Education, Grand Secretary, and Grand Secretary is rich in five cars, and the world is full of students..."

"Your Majesty, I suggest..."

The ministers who reacted came forward to submit proposals, and the candidates proposed did not seem to be temporarily selected.

Yan Shang smiled knowingly, and those who originally wanted to object also changed their faces. They were being given a step back by others!

The ministers discussed the appointment of officials of the Ministry of Education for three days, during which there were dozens of nominated officials. Yan Shang investigated the information of these nominated officials and finally drafted a list of appointments.

"The Grand Secretary Jiang Shuxie has both literary and moral character, and has a great reputation in the world... and has been promoted to the Minister of Education..." Jiang Shuxie was finally elected as Minister of Education. He was just over 40 years old. From his appearance, he was a weak scholar, but his personality was a tough guy. He wrote three or five articles criticizing the present every year, and his writing was sharp and reasonable, which attracted countless literati to read and sigh.

Jiang Shuxie was not allowed to be used during the reign of Emperor Changsheng. Although his official position was not low, his power was almost gone. This is because he had written articles many times to satirize the corruption of the court. If it weren't for his excellent reputation and many disciples under his name, he was the spiritual leader of many literati, and would have been demoted and exiled long ago.

In addition to Jiang Shuxie, the positions of left and right ministers and chief officials have also found officials with good reputations. Several of them are known to Hua Moxi and have been hired as the masters of the new college.

On the 22nd day of the first lunar month, this is the day when the new college officially begins to recruit students. In fact, before that, the news has been released. After all, such a large college is built there, and it is impossible to hide it from everyone.

Anyone who is interested in this college has long found a way to sign up, but there are also many who look down on this college because they heard that this college does not teach the Four Books and Five Classics!

"Comprehensive College? What does comprehensive mean? Why do you recruit so many students and actually need a thousand!"

"One thousand people are not a big deal, but it says that both men and women are OK. Now, girls are going to be sent to the academy?" Someone shouted with dissatisfaction.

"Yes, I'll take up girls too. It's so bad to be read when the men and women study together!"

"Oh, I originally wanted my grandson to try it, but I didn't expect that she would even recruit female students. It looked like she was so chaotic that I wouldn't let my grandson go!"

"Ahem, don't talk nonsense. This is the academy built by the Queen. If you insult the academy, you are insulting the Queen!"

"What? The academy built by the Queen? Then, that must be a good academy. I'll let my grandson sign up!"

"But even the academy that the Queen wants to run, it would be a bit unreasonable to recruit female students!"

"Maybe it's teaching women such as piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, or singing, music and dancing. Isn't the Empress holding that program? Maybe it's related."

"Ah, professors? Then, isn't that inappropriate?"

"Bah, who do you say is not serious? Do you want to be arrested?"

While the people were arguing about the issue of men and women, Hua Moxi went to the orphanage, called all the old and young people in the courtyard, and held a meeting.

"Since everyone arrived at the orphanage, they studied and worked, everyone's life has changed. They should also know the importance of knowledge, so I won't say much about it here." Hua Moxi stood in front of everyone and took out a notice for the college's admissions, "This is the admissions notice for the comprehensive college. The admission age is limited to seven to twenty-eight years old. If you meet the requirements, if you are interested, you can seriously consider it."

Everyone gathered around to look at the notice. In addition to the age requirement, the notice also required students to be literate. If they have a skill, they can be given priority, and those with excellent grades or are particularly poor, some tuition and fees can be reduced or borrowed.

Below the admission notice, in addition to recruiting students, teachers with skills are also recruited. No age or gender, nor household registration are restricted. Both scholars, farmers, industry and commerce can register, and they will be paid according to their ability.

"Is it okay to have a skill? I know how to embroider, is it considered a skill?" An old lady asked with a puzzled look on her face.
