Above the court, there has been a deadlock, and the officials are debating fiercely with each other, involving the two major interest groups, the future status, the future of the children and grandchildren, and the rise and fall of the family, which can not be said to be insensitive.

Luo Zhaoyun stayed out of the matter and watched coldly, he just wanted to achieve this kind of goal, provoking a struggle between the class of noble ministers who had existed for a hundred years because of their military merits and power, and the class of scholars and doctors who had read Confucianism and history books. For the time being, there are very few scholars from the poor family and have no right to speak, so Luo Zhaoyun deliberately classified the scholars from the poor family into the scholar class, let them argue, and finally had to make concessions and compromises with each other.

"There is no poor family in the upper grade, there is no scholar clan in the lower grade, and the noble clan has controlled the upper strata of society for a hundred years, so it is not appropriate to act rashly."

"Yes, it's better to be still than to be still, governing the country should be like cooking a small fresh, when you plan it slowly, it is easy to hurt the foundation with a big move, and it is not the blessing of the community!"

There are also dozens of people in the Xungui family who have come forward to express their opinions, and it is impossible to ignore their interest groups and the future of their heirs.

Fortunately, Luo Zhaoyun has long been afraid of the gate valve, and the ministers appointed around him are already the children of the declining aristocracy, and even most of them are talented people with no gate valve background, and they are in important positions, so they can restrain the mouthpiece of the nobles, even if they are opposed, but without the help of the first-grade and second-grade officials, it seems a bit humble and light.

At the same time, the scholar class is also retorting: "The matter of the imperial examination is related to the society, and the scholars and scholars in the world are all the children of saints, how can they be punished without teaching and allowed to be buried in the countryside?" Moreover, the children of the nobles, not everyone is talented and virtuous, many of them are embarrassed, and they need the world's talents to serve the court. ”

"As the so-called cut is not jade, it is difficult to become a big tool, and the country cannot only rely on the children of the nobility to support, but should take all the outstanding people and use them for the court......."

Just when they were at a stalemate, they all looked for His Majesty with foreign aid, hoping that he would stand on their side and give help and conclusion.

In fact, Luo Zhaoyun had been prepared for a long time, and he expected in advance that such a scene would happen, after all, his soul came from later generations, and he saw the direction of the entire historical development very clearly, so the thinking of the pros and cons and the broadening of his vision were not comparable to those of this era, and he also understood the way of balance and the method of using strength to fight.

"Wen Shangshu, in terms of the selection of officials, in addition to the imperial examination system, what else is there, can there be a resolution?" Luo Zhaoyun asked the Ministry of Rites Shangshu.

Wen Yanbo arched his hand and replied: "Your Majesty, once the new imperial examination system is half a step, in terms of the imperial examination, we will try to be fair, open, and treat everyone equally. However, in terms of appointing officials, in addition to the new science and technology jinshi, there are two kinds of officials: those who are elected in the shade and those who are specially recommended. The so-called shade election officials, once the children of the official eunuchs do not have the ability to take the imperial examination, they can also allocate the number of shade through the merits and official positions of their parents, although not all the children have the opportunity, but at least one place can be guaranteed, through the shade channel, recommend the children of the nobles, and they can also enter the scope of official selection, but the level of the shade election officials will be used according to the official rank and title of the father. ”

The cultural relics officials of the Manchu Dynasty, when they heard this, fell silent, and the way of sheltering in the shade was like succession, they could choose an heir, and they could get the opportunity to enter the workplace in the shade way, and they could be officials without the imperial examination, so as to ensure that the family did not decline quickly. But each family has several children, so which one to choose, they need to be the father, choose for themselves.

In this way, even the noble ministers have a slightly better look, and although the number of shade places is small, at least there is no stick to kill, and there is still a chance. As long as one heir is introduced to be an official, and the rest of the heirs are sent to the academy to study, those who can pass the exam will rely on themselves, and those who fail the exam and have no chance to enter the office can only blame themselves for their lack of ability and luck.

The hostile atmosphere in the court suddenly became less intense, because it was very clear that it was difficult and unrealistic to completely block the other party and completely open the gap, so they could only make some concessions and defend their core interests first.

Xungui had a way to protect his children, and he could protect his heirs and become officials in the court, so he reluctantly agreed to the new imperial examination system. And the academicians and doctors of Hanlin kept the selection of scholars for the township examination, the meeting examination, and the palace examination, and expanded the number of students by 100, and the opportunities for the scholars of the poor family increased a lot, and they agreed to the way of retaining the shade.

After all, the core interests are preserved, and the part that is compromised and relinquished, the honorable gate valve can also let the heirs go to Taixue, and then the imperial examination, there is a chance to be a scholar, and the scholar doctor is an official, and he also has the opportunity to shade his children, so to speak, they have added to each other's interests, there are gains and losses, and in the end they all compromise with each other.

Politics is like this, it is a process of compromise and transaction, giving up part of the interests and getting the benefits you need, which is in line with the golden mean and the rules of the official career.

Luo Zhaoyun balanced the relationship between the two classes and completed the new layout of the imperial court, and he was also very satisfied.

After all, the current imperial court is newly established, there is a shortage of officials, and the departments of the executive agency have just been established, and many officials are wearing multiple positions, and their work is still somewhat disordered, so it is necessary to expand the admission of talents through the imperial examination and shelter, so that all institutions of the imperial court can operate stably. Moreover, attracting young people from both walks of life will help stabilize different classes of groups.

"That's all for today's court discussion, all departments and agencies, go back and set the things related to their own departments, carry them out in an orderly manner, and carry out important errands without delay, let alone deceive the superiors and subordinates, and communicate with the above in a timely manner."

"By Your Majesty's Sacred Sayings." The ministers bowed their hands and sang respectfully.

Luo Zhaoyun got up, and then walked towards the side of the palace gate, this is the route to the harem, he walked while waving his hand, you can disperse.

"Greetings to Your Majesty—"

Luo Zhaoyun nodded, no longer spoke, and when he turned around, a smile overflowed from the corner of his mouth, this was just the first step for him to do the door valve, not as rough as Emperor Yang of Sui, but through the soft knife of the imperial examination, he first networked the poor talents, offset the proportion of the noble ministers, and weaken its influence a little bit.

However, he also knew in his heart that this was only the beginning of the dispute between the interest groups and strata of the court, and there would be many disputes in the court in the future, such as the relationship between civil officials and military generals, the relationship between gate lords and the promotion of Hanmen, the relationship between Guanlong and the Central Plains in the East, the unbalanced relationship between the north and the south, the relationship between the aristocratic gentry and the commoners' land ownership, and so on......

There is still a long way to go!
