In the pre-Qin period, the ancients used civilized etiquette to distinguish Huayi.

Those who are in line with Chinese etiquette are Hua, or Xia, Huaxia, and China. Those who do not agree are razed, or barbarians, and turned into outsiders.

In the Spring and Autumn Period, Confucius proposed to respect the king and conquer the emperor, while the Chu State claimed to be a barbarian, and the civilization progressed day by day, and the Central Plains Zhuxia Alliance was no longer regarded as a barbarian. Zheng Guo was originally a Zhuxia, but his later behavior was not in accordance with righteousness, because he was regarded as Yidi.

"The biography of the Spring and Autumn Zuo, China has great etiquette, so it is called summer, and there is the beauty of uniforms, which is called Hua."

After the Han and Jin dynasties, the distinction between Huayi and Huayi changed, especially after the Wuhu Chaohua, blood relations began to be added to the difference between Huayi, and even blood was listed as the primary condition for Huayi's debate. This is because in the era of the Five Hu and Sixteen Kingdoms, China was invaded by the Hu people and ravaged, and the northern Han people at that time were even almost wiped out, so the debate on Huayi paid more attention to blood.

Regional and cultural etiquette has been put on the back burner.

Fang Xuanling asked.

"There is a saying in the left, if it is not my race, its heart will be different, what is the explanation?"

"Back to the room, Guan Zhong in the Spring and Autumn Period once said, 'Rong Di jackal, don't get tired of it; Zhuxia is intimate and cannot be abandoned. When the Di people attacked Xingguo, Guan Zhong urged troops to come to the rescue. Rong Di, beasts also, afraid of power but not virtue! ”

"Raze does not seek summer, slaughter does not mess with summer, this is fought by force, not by compromise and preferential treatment, without strong force and tough attitude, they will not give up the snooping of the artifact."

Luo Cheng was very interested in the argument that Ma Zhou began with, Ma Zhou was very contemptuous, full of discrimination, and also had a strong sense of prevention. However, he added that Huayi is not based on blood and region. Even if he is a Han person, if he is rebellious, then even if he is from China, he cannot be called Hua.

In his opinion, he still believes that the key to Huayi's distinction lies in cultural and psychological identity.

Luo Cheng agrees with this.

This is like those banana people in later generations, who themselves came from China, but after they went abroad, they had already psychologically identified with foreign countries, and they no longer regarded themselves as Chinese, and they were in Yi, so these people naturally could no longer be regarded as Chinese.

And there are some barbarians, naturalized Chinese, especially some barbarians who migrated to the mainland to naturalize and settle down, a few generations later, their children speak Chinese, practice Chinese etiquette, and even agree that they are completely Chinese, these people are no longer barbarians but Chinese.

"Ma Zhou, how should Great Qin treat the barbarians around him?"

"Back to the saints, the students think that for Yidi, you can't be too lenient, Yidi is a beast who is afraid of power but not virtue, and he doesn't understand benevolence and only fears punishment. Therefore, we must always beware of barbarians, for barbarians to demonstrate first and then declare morality, barbarians from all directions, those who want to be attached, can move into the register, but there can be no special preferential treatment, let alone to retain their traditional customs, etc., and they are not allowed to live in settlements, naturalized people, must wear my Chinese clothes, speak my Han language, pay taxes, abide by national laws, change their Han name and speak Chinese! ”

"During the Wei and Jin dynasties, the Zhuhu in the north was too generous, and those defeated Zhuhu were attached to the interior, all of them moved inward, divided fields and granted land, and let them live in settlements, and even still followed their set of traditions, so that it became a country within a country, which eventually led to the invasion of Wuhu and chaos in China.

According to what Ma Zhou said, as long as these barbarian Rong Di still retain their past names, traditional customs, and still live separately as in the past, then these people will always be barbarian Rong Di regardless of whether they are naturalized or not, and they will never become a part of China, and these people will become a scourge sooner or later.

Luo Cheng felt that this point of view was exactly the unified idea of the Huayi debate that the Great Qin Empire needed today.

Barbarians are either naturalized or remain barbarians, and it is impossible for them to have two identities, two nationalities. For the barbarians who want to be naturalized, of course they are welcome, but there is no special preferential treatment, it is impossible for you to become any Turks, Tatars, Sogdians, Slangmen, Qiang, etc. under the Great Qin Empire, as long as you are naturalized, you are Huaxia, Han Chinese, and a citizen of Qin.

You have to use a Chinese name and surname, you have to grow your hair and wear a crown, you have to wear Han clothes, you have to learn Chinese, and you have to pay taxes.

It is impossible to allow any Turkic tribes, Sogdian tribes, Qiang people, etc., to be self-governing and make them a state within a state.

This is like the imperial examination, if you are naturalized, you can also participate in the imperial examination through formal channels, whether you take the exam or not, it all depends on your real ability, and will not give you extra points or special recruitment.

Three days later.

The results of the palace exam came out, and the results of the written test and interview came out.

The list of ten people was placed in front of the emperor, and this was the best ten people.

The top 10 in the written test and the top 10 in the interview have Ma Zhou.

Ma Zhou's eloquence was deeply appreciated by the emperor, and the examiners were also very supportive. His words are very in line with the Huayi policy in the court today, and they are even more liked by the emperor.

There is no doubt that Luo Cheng finally appointed Ma Zhou as the champion Lang, the first place in the first class, the champion Lang, and the first Jinshi and the first!

The second emperor appointed Sun Fujia, who was also a Hebei scholar, but what is more interesting is that Sun Fujia was admitted to the Jinshi in the Sui Dynasty, and he also served as the history of Dali Temple at the end of the Great Cause, and he was a petty official who did not meet talents. After the death of Sui, he also served as the law cao of Chang'an County in Li Yuan's pseudo-Tang Dynasty, and was promoted by Li Yuan to the rank of secretary and servant of the imperial history because of his meritorious deeds in the book, but was later dismissed by Li Yuan because of his words and deeds.

After that, he returned to his hometown in Hebei to study and retreat, and this time he came to participate in the imperial examination, and he also passed all the way, especially his judgment was excellent, although the defense on the palace examination was not as good as Ma Zhou, but it was also praised by the emperor. In this palace test, the emperor appointed him as a first-class leader.

Emperor Tanhualang ordered Wei Zhiwei, who was born in Jingzhao Wei, he is the son of Wei Ting, the right Cheng of Shangshu, and the son of Wei Zhiwei, who is indeed very talented, and the emperor is very satisfied with it, and the top ten points from the palace test are Tanhua.

Tianjin Qiaobei, in front of the end gate of the imperial city.

The 230 jinshi are waiting here for the release of the list.

The secretary and supervisor Wang Qi personally came out with the gold list.

The gold list hung in front of the end door, and the secretary and supervisor took the roll call in person.

The roll call went from back to front, and the first to be called was the one hundred and ninety-seventh from the top three Tongjinshi.

"Hou Junsu, the one hundred and ninety-seventh in the top three, is born as a Jinshi!"

Hou Junsu, a scholar from Guanzhong, was very excited, he was the younger brother of Hou Junji, a general in the court, but he didn't expect to be able to get a jinshi this time, even if it was the last one, he was very happy.

"I'm hit, I'm a sergeant!"

Gongshi became a real jinshi, and the carp jumped into the dragon gate.

There was a congratulatory voice.

·······

"Yijia, Tanhua, Wei waits for the price! Bestow the Priest and the first! ”

"Yijia, Bangyan, Sun Fujia, Ci Jinshi and the first!"

"Yijia, Zhuangyuanlang, Ma Zhou, Ci Jinshi and the first!"

When the last three names were pronounced, the top name on the Duanmen gold list was also filled in, and many Jinshi who were looking forward to it finally couldn't help but sigh.

Although the palace examination is not eliminated, the ranking is also very important.

The top three in the first class can not pass the court examination, but directly awarded the secretary of the provincial official position, the champion directly awarded the secretary of the provincial secretary, Bangyan and Tanhua awarded the school secretary.

The secretary Lang is from the sixth grade, and the school secretary Lang is from the seventh grade. The grade is both high and clear.

You must know that the secretary province is one of the three inner provinces, and the secretary supervisor is the minister of the imperial council of the emperor's Xuanzheng Palace, and it is unusual to be able to enter the secretary province as soon as he passes the imperial examination, even if it is only the official position of managing books like the secretary and the school secretary.

Those who pass the examination will be awarded the secretary provincial school book and orthography, and those who fail will be assigned to the head of each ministry or the county magistrate.

The official position of the secretary province is not an important position, but it is the right way, if you can enter the secretary province, you will have a great chance of entering the Hanlin Academy in the future, and out of the two hundred and thirty jinshi, only thirteen people will be selected to enter the secretary province, except for the first three people, only ten more people will be selected.

Two hundred and twenty-seven people, competing for ten places, is much stricter than the examination.

"Congratulations to Brother Binwang, the champion of high school!"

Countless new science and technology scholars came to congratulate Ma Zhou, two thousand three hundred forehead lifts, and finally examined two hundred and thirty jinshi, now Ma Zhou nodded his head, and in the congratulations of everyone, there are envy, and even jealousy.

Ma Zhou was very calm, as if he had expected to win the top prize.

"Brother Nian hasn't been worried, what if he doesn't win the champion?" Wei asked with a smile.

Wei Zhiwei is the amount of Guozijian's dismissal, Guozijian has 12,000 prisoners, and he is Xie Yuan. Compared with the champion Ma Zhou and the list of eyes Sun Fujia, Wei Zhibei was born in a famous family, in fact, he was a little unconvinced that Ma Zhou won the champion, but he was not convinced, this is the emperor's palace handpick.

"It doesn't matter if you win the top prize or not, Jinshi can always win." Ma Zhoudao.

These words made Wei Zhiqi a little powerless to respond, and he tried his best to compete in the palace test, but who would have expected that this Ma Zhou didn't care so much about the Jinshi ranking.

"I want to congratulate Brother Nian, who has become the secretary of the sixth grade, the secretary of the present dynasty, and the scholar of the future!"

"I won't go to the secretary province to be a secretary, the secretary province is not my wish to manage books, I will ask the sage to decentralize the place, even if it is a county grant, it is far better to do something practical than to manage books."

Wei Zhihui was speechless, he was a son of Jingzhao Wei, and his father was still a scholar Zuocheng, and he knew very well the inside story of many arrangements after the imperial examination, such as the three people in the first class who were directly awarded secretaries and provincial officials without going through the court examination. The remaining more than 200 jinshi were selected to enter the secretary province to teach the school book and orthography of the eight products through the court examination.

Of the remaining more than 200 people, half of them were assigned to the provinces, ministries, temples, and supervisors to serve as the chief of the eight products. The remaining half is distributed to the counties to serve in the military or to serve as county governors.

It can be said that the county is actually the worst in the distribution of new science and technology jinshi.

But Ma Zhou, the new champion of the department, said that he wanted to be a county Cheng and did not want to be a secretary from the sixth grade, but the upper county Cheng was from the eighth grade, and the middle county Cheng was even more from the eighth grade.

"I am an official to do things, and I don't go through the county, how will he be in the province in the future, and how will he enter the government as an assistant in the future?" Ma Zhou made no secret of his lofty ideal of becoming prime minister in the future.

Wei Zhiqi smiled, "Brother Nian is really ambitious, but it's not easy to be a county leader, especially a county leader in a remote place." ”

Ma Zhou said, "My emperor was once the lieutenant of Zhangqiu County, Fang Xiang was the governor of Zhangqiu County, and Du County was also the lieutenant of Zhangqiu County, and local experience is still very necessary." ”

Wei Zhiqi had nothing to say.
