Chapter 259 - A Different Imperial Examination

The New Year passed quickly, and Xiang Yu was still immersed in the joy of Yu Ji's pregnancy. Every day when I go to the court, I accompany Yu Ji at home.

Although Xiang Yu was immersed in the joy of being a father soon, he still wanted to go to the early dynasty.

"There is a book to play, and there is no book to retreat." Reiji still shouted.

"The minister has the right to play." Xiang Yu thought in his heart and made his debut loudly.

"Oh, brother-in-law, just say anything." Xiong Fu above saw Xiang Yu out of the ranks, and immediately smiled.

After all, a few days ago, Xiang Yu took his family into the palace to visit the little emperor. The little emperor was naturally very happy. And her sister also told herself that now she has to rely on this brother-in-law to help the Xiong family regain the world.

"The minister has the courage to write a letter, please open a new official election system and a military merit system in parallel, and select talents for our dynasty to assist the emperor!"

Xiang Yu's words were like a bomb, and when the civil and military officials heard it, their hearts exploded. But he didn't dare to make a loud noise, after all, the drunkenness of losing honor in front of the Son of Heaven can be big or small.

"Hmmm! Brother-in-law, this method is feasible! What does the brother-in-law think about the new system of electing officials? Xiong Fu heard that the new system was opened to assist him, so he naturally liked it.

"Don't hide it from the emperor, the minister already has a good plan, and ask the emperor to listen to this law."

"Good, good, good! Brother-in-law said yes!"

"The so-called new system of electing officials can also be named the branch examination system! It is divided into literary examination and martial arts examination, and this system is divided into four stages, as long as these four stages are completed, you can rank in the court.

In the first stage, the local people recommended people with benevolence and literacy to the local government, and the government directly reported to the court.

In the second stage, after the decision of the DPRK and the Central Committee is passed, the list of recommended candidates will be distributed to all localities, and each locality will conduct examinations according to the list, and the top 10 will be selected by the localities.

The third stage is to concentrate the top 10 in various places to the state capital for the examination. The state capital will take the top three and report to the imperial court. The rest could be appointed by the imperial court as candidates for magistrates.

Of course, you can also stay in the next year and take the entrance examination directly. If you are admitted, you will be promoted to an official!

The fourth stage is the Beijing examination, in which the top three students of the local examination come to Beijing to participate in the examination, and the test questions are selected by the imperial court examiners. The top 20 people in the Beijing test and the top 3 can be directly appointed as officials. The rest of the people can stay in the capital, and the court will pay for their living expenses, as alternate officials, and if they can't use it for three years, they can be appointed as magistrates and wait for the court to appoint!

As for the so-called sub-subjects, it is up to the candidates to choose the subjects to be examined. For example, if you can take the exam, you can choose the engineering department to take the exam!

In other words, at the time of the state examination, you can take the test by subject, and as for what you want to take, the candidate is free to choose! This is the literary examination system.

The martial arts examination system is generally the same as the literary examination system. You can be illiterate, and you can join the army as a lieutenant when you pass the state exam.

If you pass the Beijing test, you can be appointed as a lieutenant general and hold a position in the army. Of course, Wuju can not read and write!"

Xiang Yu said, don't forget to make up for the last one.

When everyone heard this, they were all ashamed. Blacksmiths can participate in being officials, isn't this going to cause chaos in the world?

And the blackest face among the hundred officials is probably the official who believes in Confucianism. The Confucian students who had heard that they had selected candidates with benevolence and virtue were overjoyed, and they thought that Xiang Yu supported Confucianism. didn't expect a big reversal in the end.

Blacksmith as an official? Everyone shook their heads when they thought about this. No, no, no! If you are in the company of a blacksmith, then you won't be laughed to death?

And Xun Yu, who is the secretary of the ministry, is also complicated at the moment. He was a student of Confucianism, and he was quite happy at first. But as soon as he heard Xiang Yu's analogy, he immediately felt a little embarrassed.

Although Xun Yu is not so rigid, it is still a little difficult to accept what Xiang Yu said to work with blacksmiths.

Thinking of this, Xun Yu hurriedly stood up and said: "Your Majesty, the minister has a book!"

"Oh, Lord Xun can say whatever you have."

"The minister doesn't dare to agree with the new system that King Xiang said! The minister thinks that the lords and generals above the court will definitely be able to recover the Great Chu!"

Xiang Yu was not surprised when he saw that it was Xun Yu who stood up, after all, this guy killed himself in history because he opposed Cao Cao's claim to be king.

"No, no, no, Lord Xun is wrong. It can be said that it is easy to fight the country, but it is difficult to defend the country!

Although the lords and generals above the current court are able to secure the country with military power and establish the country with literature. But it's impossible for you not to grow old, I Dachu must have sufficient reserve talent resources, otherwise, wouldn't it be like that Qin II? ”

"This ......" Xun Yu was a little speechless by Xiang Yu for a while, after all, he was a little anxious just now, and he didn't expect this aspect to come.

"The minister has this to play!" At this time, Luo Baoji, the secretary of the ministry, also stood up.

"The minister thinks that King Xiang's system is really ridiculous!"

"What's ridiculous?" Xiang Yu asked with a sneer in his heart.

"Humph! Above the court is the holy car of the Son of Heaven, the Ninety-Five! The land of might! How could you let that vulgar blacksmith stand like this, as King Xiang said?

Doesn't King Xiang feel that this method is out of heaven? Insult the hall? Or do you mean that I have no one to use in Dachu, and I want a group of masonry craftsmen and ordinary people to recover?!"

Xiang Yu couldn't help sneering in his heart after listening to Luo Baoji's words, and was about to speak, but someone had already stood up and replied.

"Dare to ask Lord Luo, what's wrong with the mason? I am a mason, can Lord Luo build a small business to resist the invasion of Jiujiang? It was Tao Zongwang, who had been sent to Xiaoshang Village to build a pass, who had stood up and spoke.

Tao Zongwang is currently serving in the Ministry of Industry, and he is the official to the fifth grade.

"Like, do you look down on the blacksmith or what? If you have the ability, you can pick my sledgehammer! If you can move, Jin Dajian will resign and go home today!" At this moment, Jin Dajian, who was born as a blacksmith, couldn't stand still and also came out to reprimand.

"This ......" Luo Baoji was suddenly speechless, after all, Jin Dajian struck the iron and how heavy the sledgehammer was, Luo Baoji himself still knew.

"Oh? According to Lord Luo, my Ministry of Industry is all lowly masons? At this moment, Xu Guangqi, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, who had not spoken, also stood up.

Xiang Yu watched the officials slam on top of the court, and couldn't help but be happy in his heart. Unexpectedly, in his previous life, there was only a court dispute in film and television dramas, but he actually saw it with his own eyes!

Luo Baozhi saw that even Xu Guangqi stood up, but he just shrank his head and glanced at Xun Yu. I saw that Xun Yu also lowered his head at the moment, not knowing what to think again.

Luo Baoji had no choice but to glance at Sikong Zhao Wuyan, who was standing aside, and ask for help.

This Zhao Wuyan and Luo Baozhu are fox friends on weekdays, and the children of the two families have set the words of matchmaking and have become in-laws.

Zhao Wuyan looked at his in-laws at this moment, although he was a little reluctant in his heart, he even secretly blamed Luo Baoyu for dragging him into troubled waters. But the two of them were grasshoppers on a rope, and Zhao Wuyan had no choice but to stand up and speak.
