In the 22nd year of Xuanhua in the Da Jing Dynasty and 172 years since the founding of the country, it prospered but declined, and suffered from many shortcomings. Externally, Rouran in the north has been shutting down the country for many years, the vassals in the southwest have violated the Yangtze rule, and Japanese pirates have been incessant in the sea and border areas, and huge military expenditures have been consumed every year. Internally, land annexation has become more and more intense, noble families have monopolized official careers, redundant officials and excessive expenses are hard to return, the treasury is in deficit all year round, and official corruption is deep-rooted. Emperor Jingxuan was idle in his middle age, indulged in the Qing Dynasty and neglected the checks and balances of the government. The court was divided into three factions: the conservative gentry, the corrupt nobles, and the weak Qing faction.
Purpose: The Great Jing Dynasty set a precedent for women entering officialdom a hundred years ago. The legitimate daughters of noble families and talented women from poor families could enter the court through the imperial examination and the imperial examination. There were both male and female officials in the court, and there were no gender barriers to official career. Talent and power were the basis.
