The Imperial Palace of Nine Abyss City!

Here are Lu Jiuyuan, Li Ru, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, Xun Yu, the secretary of the Shangshu, and Li Nan, the secretary of the ministry.

"Xun Aiqing, you say it first!" Lu Jiuyuan asked Xun Yu first.

"Your Majesty, Weichen has investigated a little, there is a lack of officials in various places, and there are not so many suitable people now, and the information reported by the recommended candidates in various places is very different from the investigation of Jinyiwei." Xun Yu said.

The issue of officials is very important, and it is impossible for Lu Jiuyuan to summon them all, so these officials need to be selected, but it is too difficult to select officials who are really talented and capable.

"That's it!" Hearing this, Lu Jiuyuan thought about it for a while, and the issue of official selection should not be careless, so he had to be cautious, "Wait for me to think about the affairs of officials, Li Shangshu's problem should be the same as Xun Aiqing's problem!" Finally, he looked at Li Nan and asked.

"Your Majesty, Weichen is also here for this matter." Li Nan nodded and said hurriedly when he heard Lu Jiuyuan's words.

He and Xun Yu are both here for the problem of officials in various places, the lack of officials is too serious, there are three counties without county guards, six counties do not have seven or eight prefects, not to mention the remaining prefectures and counties, there was no such lack of officials, but Lu Jiuyuan ordered a strict investigation of all officials, and Jinyiwei's ability was outstanding, and some officials were directly dismissed, and some of them were sent to prison.

Moreover, in Lu Jiuyuan's order, Taiyuan County should focus on taking care of it, in addition to officials, it is also necessary to send literati to teach in Taiyuan County, Taiyuan County was originally a northern cold grassland, and culture is too important for Taiyuan County.

"Li Ru, then it's up to you to say!" Hearing this, Lu Jiuyuan could only ask Li Ru, Li Ru, as the commander of the Jinyi Guard, had much more things than Xun Yu and Li Nan, otherwise he would not have set up two internal and external commanders.

"Your Majesty, Wei Chen found an outsider at the enthronement ceremony, it should be a person from the Fengyu Empire, a great grandmaster and a strong man, but it has been taken down by Mr. Gai." Li Ru said.

"Fengyu Empire?" Lu Jiuyuan frowned and asked.

Because the Fengyu Empire does not necessarily have two great grandmaster powerhouses, and now they are defeated by Gai Nie, and then locked up by Li Ru, the current Fengyu Empire can be said to have no strong threat, but it is meaningful that the person who comes is a great grandmaster and a strong person, and the Fengyu Empire will obviously not send a great grandmaster strong man into the Jiuyuan Dynasty, so only that person comes privately.

"Your Majesty, that person should have come alone, and Wechen found out that the person's surname was Jiang, and Wechen guessed that it should have something to do with Jiang Wei six years ago." Li Ru told all the news he had found, and at the same time there was speculation.

"If you don't say it, I've forgotten it, let's lock that person up first, and then talk about it when I can use it later." Lu Jiuyuan said.

"Yes." Li Ru arched his hand and said.

"Anything else?" Lu Jiuyuan saw that Li Ru had no intention of leaving, and knew that there was still something to do, so he simply solved it all at once.

"Your Majesty, when I caught someone from the Fengyu Empire, there were three people next to me, and they said that they were Canglong Academy, and they wanted to establish a branch of the academy in our dynasty." Li Ru said, "But it seems that Weichen should be here for other things." ”

"Since you can see it, then find a good place to entertain them, and when they are willing to speak, bring me to see me." Lu Jiuyuan naturally didn't want to see someone who didn't even say the purpose, but instead seemed troublesome, "By the way, tell them that my Jiuyuan Dynasty has its own academy." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Hearing this, Li Ru said, and then left the imperial study, "Weichen retired." ”

Now there are three people in the imperial study: Lu Jiuyuan, Xun Yu, and Li Nan.

Xun Yu and Li Nan were both waiting for Lu Jiuyuan's holy will.

"Two Aiqing, what do you think of the imperial examination?" After thinking about it, Lu Jiuyuan still felt that the imperial examination system was more reliable.

Although there are drawbacks in the imperial examination, it is the best way, and it will not let the Shi clan monopolize the officialdom of the entire Jiuyuan Dynasty, but he seems to have forgotten that Xun Yu may know about the imperial examination system, but Li Nan definitely does not know.

"Your Majesty, I don't know what this imperial examination means?" Li Nan was the first to come out and ask, but Xun Yu didn't ask, thinking that if he either knew about the imperial examination, he knew that Li Nan would definitely ask.

"The imperial examination system is to select talents through examinations." Lu Jiuyuan said a very simple sentence.

The imperial examination system is indeed the selection of talents through examinations, and it is not known how many officials in Chinese history came through the imperial examination system.

"Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that the imperial examination system is feasible, and with the assistance of Master Li, the commander of Jinyiwei, the phenomenon of examination fraud can be eliminated, and the imperial examination is screened layer by layer."

Xun Yu took a step forward and said that the imperial examination system is the best way to make those who have talents but cannot display them up and down the dynasty to a higher level.

"Well, Xun Aiqing is right, I originally planned to wait for the imperial examination system to be implemented next year, but now Xun Aiqing and Li Aiqing have proposed it, so that the imperial examination system will appear in advance, but my imperial examination system is not limited to scholars, there are other people with ability." Lu Jiuyuan said.

The imperial examination system existed in the original setting, but the situation made him have to delay, and now there is a serious shortage of officials in the dynasty, so the imperial examination system has to appear, but the imperial examination system he wants is not a unilateral selection of officials, but also a lot of talents, just to say that the Ministry of Industry is very scarce, and the Taiyi Shu is not much better than the Ministry of Industry.

"The two Aiqing will first investigate whether there are officials suitable for the county guard, the prefect and the prefecture, as for the prefect, let the imperial examination decide, as for the imperial examination system, I will let Zhao Gao pass on the decree to you later, and the Jiuyuan Dynasty should also cultivate some capable people." Lu Jiuyuan said after thinking for a while.

It is difficult to say how complex the imperial examination system is, especially since the imperial examination system has to go through layers of elimination.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Li Nan and Xun Yu left the imperial study, but Lu Jiuyuan's will for the two of them was too difficult to do after all, the dynasty lacked three county guards, more than a dozen prefects, not to mention the prefect of Zhizhou, one city, one Zhizhou and four counties, and there were too many officials needed.

However, as soon as the two of them left the imperial study, they met Li Ru, and Li Ru told the two of them that there was one person in Shangdang County who could serve as the county guard, and the other person who could serve as the prefect, which was the original Beiguan City Advocate Guoren and Ye Zhiliang in Beiguan City.

Hearing that Xun Yu and Li Nan were busy checking Zhang Guoren and Ye Zhiliang's files, it was indeed more suitable, although the position of county guard was a bit high for Zhang Guoren, but it was very suitable for the current Jiuyuan Dynasty, maybe this would be more beneficial or not, and finally Xun Yu and Li Nan set Zhang Guoren as the county guard of Liaoxi County, and Ye Zhiliang as one of the prefects of Shangdang County.

It is said that Lu Jiuyuan fell into thinking after Xun Yu and Li Nan left, and after a long time of thinking and the experience he had seen in his previous life, he decided to write down what he thought of first, and then correct and make up for the shortcomings in the future.

First of all, the imperial examination and the martial examination were carried out together, the imperial examination was carried out by Xun Yu, Li Nan, Zhang Heng, and Li Ru, and the martial examination was carried out by Zhang Liao. There are four levels of imperial examinations, the Yuan Examination, the Township Examination, the Hui Examination, and the Palace Examination.

Both the imperial examination and the martial arts are held once every three years, but the martial arts are only held in Jiuyuan City, and there are many restrictions on the martial arts, and there are certain rewards for participating in the martial arts, but the premise must be that the person who participates in the martial arts must be a congenital martial artist.

The content of the imperial examination was finally decided by Xun Yu, assisted by Li Nan and Zhang Heng, and Li Ru was responsible for the safety of the test questions. As for why Zhang Heng was allowed to participate in it, it was hoped that Zhang Heng could find a person who was good at creativity or intelligence in the imperial examination.

This is basically what Lu Jiuyuan asked Xun Yu Li Nan and others to do, and the specific details are in charge of Xun Yu and others, and he only participates in the final palace examination in the entire imperial examination, and the chief examiner Xun Yu is responsible for everything else.
