"Examination method" can be said to be the most successful product of Zhang Wanli's New Deal reform, and it is also the basis of all reforms. After Zhang took charge of the cabinet, his ruling goal was "rich".
What is a "rich country", that is, the country increases revenue and reduces expenditure, the national treasury is abundant, and the country is rich. What is "Qiang Bing"? It means that the border guards are well-trained and well-prepared, ready to fight at any time, and the war will win.
What does the test method mean? Examination method is an official assessment system established in Wanli period of Ming Dynasty, which was put forward by Zhang in Wanli period (1573) and extended to the whole country. According to the new law, the six departments and the Ducha Institute respectively register the time limit of their officials in three account books, and the six departments and the Ducha Institute register according to the account books and conduct monthly inspections.
In this way, a set of perfect official evaluation mechanism has been formed, which effectively realizes the combination of evaluation and rectification, and changes the previous method of evaluating officials mainly by official departments.
Six departments complete one, and cancel it on the books in time; If it is not completed on time, the responsible official will be punished. Six departments are responsible for patrolling to see which ones are really completed, which ones are not completed because of the delay or lack of ability of officials, and which ones cannot be completed because of lack of time.
Finally, the cabinet will make a comparison, punish officials who fail to implement it, promote competent officials, and extend the time for work that really needs to be extended. In this way, it is uniformly implemented from the central government to the local government, making the top-down government decrees smooth and well implemented.
