When several prime ministers came, everyone saw the consultations taken out by Jing Wen Zheng Research Office, and everyone began to express their opinions. The first person to speak was Du Ruhui, because he has always been responsible for the election of talents, he is responsible for such officials.

"The way I elected talents in the Tang Dynasty was the imperial examination system, and there was also the family. I won't say much about the imperial examination, and the imperial examination was a channel for selection. But now Jing Wen proposed to select officials from minor officials, and we have always implemented this. We have announced that major yamen can actually report the achievements of minor officials to the Shangshu Province, and then the Shangshu Province will allocate official positions uniformly. This is actually a way of selecting the Tang Dynasty. Why do you say that minor officials have no future?" Du Ruhui asked.

In fact, this method of flowing out and entering the stream was also proposed by Du Ruhui. In fact, local governments and major central departments were asked to report some minor officials with outstanding work, and then the Secretariat awarded official positions, so that they became officials in the court. This is the same as the principle of temporary workers in the later governments, and they are all in line with ancient and modern times. However, the ancient organization was much higher, and the ancient organization was at least nine-rank officials, and in terms of real power, even the ninth-rank officials were no less than the senior officials in later generations. Therefore, the ancient organization was much more valuable.

However, Jing Wen ignored Du Ruhui at all and retorted: "Mr. Du, I don't have any objection to the method of selecting officials in Men Yin. However, an official from the imperial examination can be directly an official and pointed at the old officials who have worked hard for many years. However, they have no real experience in governing at all, and often think of what they say just by slapping their butts. When they get to their position, they have to be familiar with government affairs again. This process also takes time. Since he is not competent for the position, what use should we use him? Those who are capable of serving positions are almost never qualified to become officials. Is this reasonable? Is it reasonable for us, the selection of officials in the Tang Dynasty? Moreover, if you are a master, you may be more difficult to walk than the road to the imperial examination. And even if you become an official, you will be discriminated against in the future, right?"

Of course, Jing Wen did not dare to criticize Shiqing Shilu's family's official selection system, because if this is the case, he would probably offend all the relevant matters. Therefore, he turned his attention to the new things. Although the imperial examination was called to select talents, they were all people with no actual experience in governing. If these people were asked to take charge of a county directly, wouldn't this be irresponsible to the people? Therefore, Jing Wen of course had to criticize. But those who were capable at the bottom were almost impossible to take the position of officials, which was obviously unreasonable.

Du Ruhui was also speechless because he let a person with no experience take up the leadership position, but he made some capable people unable to become leaders at the bottom. This is obviously a problem. Even Du Ruhui had to admit that the imperial examination was very problematic. And now, it is not an era of absolute imperial examinations like the Song and Ming dynasties. During the Tang Dynasty, some minor officials could become officials, but the probability was not high. In the Song Dynasty, these minor officials became marginalized figures and had no future at all. The Tang Dynasty was not so, so he felt that the election system seemed to be somewhat problematic. At this time, the thoughts were not as rigid as the Song Dynasty, and believed that the selection of talents must be selected from those who studied Confucian classics. This can be seen from the fact that there were many subjects in the Tang Dynasty's imperial examinations that the Tang Dynasty's selection method was not completely rigid.

"So. Since there is a problem with our official selection, we need to make corrections. According to my advice to the emperor, the meaning is very obvious, that is, first we can first delegate the personnel powers of low-level officials. Let the officials below choose the right minor officials themselves. Then, we can appoint some low-level officials on their own. For example, we can directly delegate officials from the seventh to ninth rank to local prefectures or major yamen in the central government of the court. In the future, these governments can appoint officials from the seventh to ninth rank, and even have the right to promote officials from the minor officials. From regular evaluations of minor officials entering the stream, each yamen or local prefecture has a certain number of places every six months, and promote officials from the minor officials. This is much more than in the past, and those minor officials will definitely work hard when they see their future, and then work hard to become officials." Jing Wen said.

Du Ruhui said, "If this is the case, wouldn't the magistrate also be selected from the local area?"

"Oh? We can add one. The officials in charge of the government must be selected by the Secretariat. Is that okay?" Jing Wen immediately filled in his own loophole.

"But why do we have to delegate personnel power? If our central government makes a choice, isn't that okay?" Dai Zhou asked.

But Jing Wen said: "My lords, maybe you won't underestimate those minor officials, but can those officials from the imperial examination look down on those minor officials? Therefore, if the middle-level officials who are inexperienced in the central government make a choice, they may despise these minor officials very much. And the officials in those places have to be responsible for their own political achievements, so they will choose capable talents as assistance. Therefore, decentralizing the personnel rights of the lower-level can allow grassroots talents to play a greater role."

Everyone nodded because the middle-level cadres of the central government knew that these guys actually looked down on those minor officials. If the people from the Central Government were asked to choose, let alone whether they could understand the local minor officials, they might not be able to look down on those officials from minor officials. This is the reason before. The Central Government did not have too many minor officials. On the contrary, the ones who worked the most but made the least profit were those minor officials. Regardless of whether the local officials could look down on them, they would certainly give priority to promoting those capable people as their assistant talents for their own political achievements, so that they could work with peace of mind and create political achievements and get rich.

"Then how to evaluate this assessment? Once every six months, but how can it be used as an assessment method? There is no unified standard for this ability!" Du Ruhui said.
