"Split the Bowen Academy?"

Pang Yukun and the officials were greatly surprised.

Xiao Ming nodded, "Since conquering Wei, Yan and Liang, these scholars from all over the country flocked to the school, and the number of scholars who tried to enter the school to study has increased several times. The original intention of Bowen Academy was to provide talents for the original vassal state. Now, the scholars from the Great Yu Kingdom are not enough."

After pondering for a while, Xiao Ming continued: "The profession is specialized. The Bowen Academy brings together the strengths of many schools and is extensive and complex, which is not conducive to the confidentiality of secret technology."

Pang Yukun nodded and said, "Prince, overall, the Great Yu Kingdom now lacks effective governance of the Bowen Academy and various schools."

Speaking of this, Fiji and others couldn't get into it anymore. Compared with Pang Yukun, they didn't know much about these things.

"Shoufu Pang is right. I was still the King of Qi who was enthroned at the primary school and needed few talents. It doesn't matter if the Bowen Academy is a little casual. Now that the world is unified and there are many talents needed, this matter should be put on the agenda. This is the second item of reform, which is to establish a province of culture and education."

"Cultural and Educational Province?"

Officials were talking about it, but they were familiar with the Secretariat. This was the official office that was in charge of the secret and issued the emperor's edict.

However, although there was a discussion, no officials strongly opposed this time. Since Xiao Ming dismissed Yu Ming last time, officials in the court knew that the emperor was determined to reform.

This cancellation of scholars, farmers, industry and commerce is the first item, and now the second item appears.

Fiji did not object, but he needed to ask some questions clearly, so he said, "Does the emperor want to cancel the imperial examination?"

"The imperial examination does not need to be cancelled, but it has to change." Xiao Ming said, "After the establishment of the Provincial Culture and Education will govern all schools in the State of Dayu, and the reform of the imperial examination will also be implemented by the Provincial Culture and Education."

After studying at Bowen Academy for a period of time, officials have actually been mentally prepared for this. In the future, the imperial examinations will no longer take the Four Books and Five Classics, and will replace them with various strange knowledge.

Clearing his throat, Xiao Ming continued: "The position of the chief official of this cultural and educational province is Xuezheng, and Qingzhou Cultural and Educational Province will be responsible for leading the cultural and educational provinces of other prefectures."

"Dui?" This time, not only was Fiji shocked, but even Pang Yukun was a little surprised. This was something they had never heard of.

"Your Majesty, what is this mansion?" Pang Yukun asked.

Xiao Ming chuckled softly, and he said: "This is the third item of reform, to abolish the vassal states and to strengthen the court's governance of various prefectures and counties."

Although Xiao Ming has now captured Wei, Yan, Liang and other areas, just like Qin Shihuang's destruction of the six kingdoms, the people in these places still retained their living habits during the vassal states.

This was naturally unbearable for Xiao Ming. His purpose of killing these vassal kings was to establish centralization. How could he tolerate the people in these areas even claiming to be from Wei and Yan.

So by measure, he decided to abolish the vassal state and establish the prefecture, and the former Wei State was set up as Jinling Prefecture, which governed the former thirteen prefectures of Wei, and then governed the county with prefectures.

The old land of Yan State established Bozhou Prefecture, which was centered on Bozhou to govern the ten prefectures of Yan State, followed by Kaifeng Prefecture, Chang'an Prefecture, Qingzhou Prefecture, Youzhou Prefecture, and finally his Qingzhou Prefecture.

In this way, he divided the land occupied in front of him into seven palaces, which greatly strengthened the management of the local area.

Speaking out his thoughts, Xiao Ming looked at the officials and waited for their opinions.

At this time, both Pang Yukun and Fiji fell silent. This time, Xiao Ming's move was too big.

Pang Yukun said, "The emperor knew that the emperor was eager to reform, but the north was not stable yet. If it was implemented rashly, it would not only not have any effect, but it would cause chaos."

"I have already considered this point, so this reform was not implemented in all places in the Great Yu Kingdom. I also know that my dear friends are suspicious of the reform. As the saying goes, black cats and white cats catch mice are good cats. Only by seeing it can you prove that the reform is correct. Therefore, I decided to take the lead in implementing the reform in Qingzhou Prefecture. The right or wrong success or failure depends only on the rise and fall of Qingzhou Prefecture."

It is said that because the Great Chongqing Kingdom has not been beaten by advanced civilization, officials now lack enthusiasm for reforms, and the lack of external factors makes it difficult for a country to independently change.

In Europe, if it were not for the invasion of the Whip of God that opened a door for Europe, Europe would not have sought change and walked out of the Middle Ages.

Similarly, if it weren't for the Western invasion that brought about advanced civilization, the feudal dynasty would have continued to cycle.

"The Great Yu Kingdom needs enemies." Sometimes Xiao Ming suddenly thought so.

He gradually understood why contemporary countries should constantly create international conflicts and choose imaginary enemies, because all this is the reason why the country continues to be strong.

However, the Great Yu Kingdom has an enemy, and everyone agrees with this enemy, which is the Golden Horde.

However, the Golden Horde is a country with a lower level of civilization than the Great Chongqing Kingdom. If the Golden Horde is replaced by a country with a higher level of civilization than the Great Chongqing Kingdom, the current Great Chongqing Kingdom will inevitably make every effort to reform and follow suit.

Of course, the invaders with a higher level of civilization than the Great Yu Kingdom have arrived, which is what Xiao Ming is preparing to capture. He is preparing to invite the Dutch army stationed in Ryukyu to visit Qingzhou.

He believes this will give officials who oppose the reform a clear understanding.

While he was thinking, Pang Yukun whispered loudly: "The emperor is wise, and the subordinates think that the reform is most appropriate in the six states."

Fiji and others also breathed a sigh of relief. They were afraid that Xiao Ming would make a big move, so they said in unison: "The Emperor is wise."

Looking at the officials, Xiao Ming nodded with satisfaction, and this time his plan was implemented smoothly.

In fact, his purpose this time is to build a pilot area, which is similar to the steps of contemporary reform and opening up, and first draw some areas to carry out pilot projects.

If it is successful, it will be easier to implement the reform in other places, and at the same time, the areas where the reforms become rich can also drive development in other places.

Moreover, because the reform area is small, this is conducive to key supervision, and this place must have a basis for reform.

After thinking about it, his former ban was the most appropriate. If the reform was successful, he would implement it in coastal areas such as Youzhou Prefecture and Jinling Prefecture.

"The reform involves many government orders, so the court will no longer discuss it." Xiao Ming signaled Qian Dafu at this time.

Taking a step forward, Qian Dafu shouted: "If you have something to do, report it early, and if you have nothing to do, roll the curtain and retreat."

The officials shouted long live after hearing this. They dared not say anything more now. Today, the emperor threw too many incredible things out of the court. They need to go back and discuss them carefully.
