But as far as the current situation is concerned, whether to kill Li Yifu or not is actually only secondary, and this purpose is only to calm the anger of the people, for the country and the people, in fact, there is not much help, the huge country, can not pin its finances on the family, this crisis still has many problems left unsolved.

Debt problems, personnel problems, local problems, and so on.

All of these are endangering the society and the country, and they are a top priority, and we must quickly find a way to solve them.

Soon, Li Zhi convened a meeting, this meeting, not a pivotal meeting, but also not a court meeting, Li Zhi is to summon some important and talented ministers in the court to the Taiji Palace, specifically to discuss how the country should go next, and also let Li Hong listen to the sidelines, this is a very rare learning opportunity.

It was also a very, very important meeting that directly decided the future of the world's largest empire.

Li Zhi got straight to the point and said: "Although the crisis has been temporarily alleviated, it has not completely passed, the current treasury is still burdened with tens of millions of debts, and there are still many people in various states and counties who have no fixed place to live and are displaced. ”

An old man about sixty years old said: "Your Majesty, now is the time to employ people in the DPRK, and not long ago Shang Shuling hastily dismissed thousands of officials, although it was forced by the situation at that time, but now the situation has been controlled, the old minister suggested that this matter should be handled as appropriate, and some useful talents should be recalled to the DPRK, or transferred to local states and counties, so that there will be more talented people to assist Your Majesty and govern the country well." ”

This person's name is Zhang Wenguan, who was originally employed in the middle school, and he also has an identity, that is, the minister of the East Palace, and Li Hong's teacher, Li Zhi promoted him to the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, which also aggravated the status of the East Palace from the side, and Zhang Wenguan was born as a Jinshi, of course he knew that some people had a hard time entering the office, and it was a little unfair for you to dismiss people like this.

This was well intentioned.

Han Yi said with a smile: "I don't know what Zhang Shangshu thinks, which of the officials in the DPRK and China is incompetent?" ”

Zhang Wen said: "The old man didn't mean this, but the old man thought that the imperial court was the time to employ people at this time, and so many people should not be dismissed." ”

Han Yi said: "Zhang Shangshu only knows one thing, but he doesn't know the other, now the imperial court is indeed on the occasion of employing people, but the imperial court can still carry tens of millions of debts, one more official will have one more burden, and officials cannot directly generate benefits, that is to say, the people have to pay an extra tax." I know you have compassion, but there are more than a few thousand talents in the world, do you want the court to summon all of them into the court? This is more like a charity, humiliating the talented people in the world, and the court itself should do what it can.

I don't know if Zhang Shangshu still remembers why during the Zhenguan period, Taizong Shengshang wanted to streamline officials, not because those officials were straw bales, but because there were many people, but the government decrees were not accessible, it can be seen that the imperial court not only should not call those people into the court again, but should strictly follow the official position establishment, and can no longer be easily awarded official positions, if it is easy to grant official positions, it is to change the direction and increase the burden on the people and the country, and even they are not good at governance, so what to talk about governing the country. ”

Zhang Wenguan said: "Although the Shangshu order is reasonable, but the imperial court only holds the imperial examination once every three years, and those scholars have studied hard for more than ten years, and it is not easy to get the Jinshi, but the imperial court does not use it, and over time, everyone will not come to participate in the imperial examination, how can this imperial court continue." ”

Han Yi nodded and said, "Zhang Shangshu is reasonable, and this is what I have been thinking about recently. The purpose of the imperial examination is to improve the employment system, so that talented people in the world can enter the court as officials, assist the monarch, and govern the country. But the problem is that the current domestic talent is far higher than the needs of the imperial court, if they are all called into the court, then there will be redundant officials, which leads to the phenomenon of redundancy, which is a kind of harm to the country, the imperial court in line with the concept of governing the country, but is doing things that hurt the country, is it the importance of talents, or the country? ”

This is, of course, of national importance.

Zhang Wenguan avoided the important and said lightly: "Could it be that Shang Shuling wants to abolish the imperial examination?" ”

He also asked the voices of many people, Cui Jijian and Wang Xuandao all showed puzzled expressions.

Li Shimin said that he would use the imperial examination to put all the talented people in the world into the urn, so that those talented people would not rebel, this belongs to standing and talking without backache, Mingjun also has some bad problems that come when he opens his mouth, can you afford to raise talented people in the world?

They don't produce food, but they eat grain, ten sheep and nine herds will lead to bankruptcy, don't doubt it, this is not the problem that the wool is always out of the sheep, but you can't be satisfied after the wool, then the next step is of course to eat mutton.

But if the imperial examination is not used, how can the imperial court continue?

This is also a very important topic.

Han Yi said: "You are all readers, I don't know what you think of the word nerd, whether it is a positive or derogatory meaning." ”

"Derogatory, of course."

Li Hong said subconsciously, but after finishing speaking, he looked at Li Zhi worriedly.

Li Zhi nodded with a smile and gave encouragement, of course this student is qualified to speak.

"The prince is right."

Han Yi said: "If you want to pass the imperial examination, the only way is to study hard, so there are a lot of nerds, the only thing they can do is to study, this kind of person is useless." A truly talented person, even if he is not an official, he will not starve to death, because he is smart, then he can also succeed in other aspects, such as Zheng Shilang, he is full of wealth, but he has achieved significant success in the business world, which has a lot to do with his childhood study. ”

Li Zhi said: "If you want to say that you are more successful in trading." ”

Han Yi immediately said: "The minister has not read any books, if the transaction is not successful, then why is the minister standing here, but Your Majesty is right, the minister can also prove this, a real genius, even if he does not pass the imperial examination, he has a way to become an official." ”

Everyone despised Han Yi when they heard it, but no one refuted it, people did business and wore purple robes, didn't they slap themselves in the face to refute him.

Li Zhi rolled his eyes and said, "Just say what you want to say, don't beat around the bush here." ”

"Wechen obeys."

Han Yi said: "Weichen's suggestion is to regard the imperial examination as a touchstone, and those who can pass the imperial examination must be talented and well-educated, but it does not necessarily mean that they should be summoned to the court immediately, they can go to the people to experience it first, whether you are a businessman or a langzhong, you can do it, and the court can issue a paper document to them, as a symbol of honor, but also as a symbol of talent, and when the court needs people, then select talents from these people." And their actions during this period will also be an important factor in the imperial court assessment.

First of all, it is more able to see a person's character, morality, and true ability. If a person can't even support himself, I don't believe he can tell the people how to feed themselves, it's impossible. Secondly, Jinshi has been trained in the people, he can deeply understand the needs of the people, clearly know what difficulties and contradictions the country is facing, and when he enters the office, he knows what he should do and what he should not do, instead of talking about the army on paper in the DPRK and China, wasting the money and food of the court.

Finally, it can also meet the needs of other industries for talents, in fact, all walks of life need talents, talents can promote the progress of the industry, in order to make the country develop in an all-round way, if the talents are concentrated in the imperial court, other places are lacking talents, this is a kind of abnormal development, will cause imbalance in all aspects, which is not beneficial to the imperial court. More rain becomes flood, less rain becomes drought, that is the truth, the will of heaven cannot be violated, but human affairs can be flexible. ”

Li Zhi, Li Hong, and Li Ji all nodded slightly.

Di Renjie said suddenly: "But the matter of redundant officials is not all the fault of the imperial examination, the children of the scholar clan enter the official with the shadow seal system, but it is better than the imperial examination, and the one who can pass the imperial examination is at least really talented and learned, and there are many people in the scholar clan who have no talent and no virtue just rely on the ancestral shade to enter the office, to say that it is unfair, this is even more unfair, I don't know what Shang Shuling thinks?" ”

The imperial examination is beneficial to the Shu people, and the dispute between the Shishu and the Shu people has not been completely resolved, Di Renjie, an official from the Shu nationality, was of course unhappy when he heard that Han Yi had pushed all the responsibilities on the imperial examination.

Without waiting for Han Yi to speak, Cui Jijian smiled coldly and said proudly: "Our Qinghe Cui clan has produced many talents for hundreds of years, how can you deny it with a word, and I, Cui Jiji, will not be uncommon with this shadow sealing system." ”

Li Zhi glanced at Cui Jijian and said secretly, this guy has really not changed at all, and you Cui is the most powerful.

But Cui Jijian is indeed qualified to say this, because he is a child and first, so young, he has been a jinshi for more than ten years, and he should be ranked in the ranks.

Lu Shigua said: "I think Di Shaoqing is reasonable, although Lu was born in the Fanyang Lu family, he is also very dissatisfied with this. Not everyone in our family relies on the shadow seal to enter the office, many of us are through the imperial examination, but we have to bear the burden of the ancestral shadow, I have always believed that to leave the shadow for future generations, that is to leave a disaster, therefore, I think that the shadow seal system should be abolished, and the court should treat everyone equally. ”

"No, no."

An old man glared at Master Lu covertly, and said, "The shadow seal is a reward for the heroes, if you do this, it may cause the dissatisfaction of the heroes and Shilin." ”

This person's surname is Cui, his name is Cui Yan, he was born in the Boling Cui clan, and he is a scholar of Hongwenkan University.

Wang Xuandao said: "In fact, whether it is after the heroes, or the children of the scholar clan have already enjoyed the glory and wealth, which is much better than the ordinary people, but in the long run, it will make the children of the scholar clan indulge in pleasure, which will lead to the sinking of the scholar clan." Over the years, the fall of many scholars has a great relationship with the shadow sealing system, if the scholars have contributed to the country for generations and become famous all over the world, the scholars will naturally stand tall, on the contrary, even if there is a shadow sealing system, the scholars will sink sooner or later. ”

Cui Yan was furious, you juniors also dare to call out the old man, where is this etiquette, but in the Taiji Palace, he didn't dare to be presumptuous, and immediately hummed: "If you weren't from a famous family, how could you sit here." ”

Lu Shigua confronted each other: "The reason why the younger generation is sitting here is inseparable from the education of the family, if there is no family cultivation, the younger generation will not be able to sit here at all, this younger generation does not dare to deny it, but dare to ask Uncle Cui, what is the responsibility of the younger generation sitting here now?" ”

Cui Yan trembled, but he couldn't speak.

What is he fighting for, is to protect the rights and interests of the scholars, but can he say that letting Lu Shigua sit here is to protect the rights and interests of the scholars?

What's more important is that Cui Jijian and Lu Shigua are just like him, they are all from the world's first-class scholars, and they don't know how to speak when they compete with them.

Di Renjie and the others were all stunned, why did the Shi clan quarrel within themselves.

Li Zhi also sounds interesting, this is very different from before, of course Han Yi is from the Shu clan, in fact, he is not even from the Shu clan, but he wants to reform the imperial examination, which is equivalent to reducing the rights and interests of the Shu clan, Lu Shigua They are from the Shi clan, but they want to reduce the rights and interests of the Shi clan, the situation is really a little chaotic.

It can be seen that they are thinking about the country, not their own rights and interests.

Li Zhi is very satisfied with this team, at least for now. But none of them got to the point, sighed, and said: "If the imperial examination is reformed, it will chill the hearts of the world's scholars, and if the shadow seal system is abolished, it will chill the hearts of heroes, I can't do this!" ”

Han Yi was pleasantly surprised: "It turns out that Your Majesty still has money hidden, that's really good." ”

Li Zhi was stunned for a moment, and said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about, my inner mansion has been emptied, don't you know?" ”

The eyeballs are about to pop out, and now anyone who talks about money hurts their feelings, because everyone has no money.

Han Yi said: "It's a coincidence, the treasury has also been emptied, not only emptied, but also in debt, I don't know where the minister should find money to send to the minister's eldest son?" ”

After Shang Shuling, just kidding, then you have to be an official now!

Li Zhi looked at Han Yi with an embarrassed expression.

Han Yi looked at Li Zhi expectantly.

Isn't it funny to say that there is a fart for so much, and they are already surrounded by walls, and they are still fighting for property.

Li Ji said suddenly: "Your Majesty, this skin will not be attached, now the country is in debt, if the country is dead, what kind of shadow sealing system to talk about, since the country can no longer afford it, then abolish it." ”

As soon as these words came out, many ministers showed dissatisfaction.

Li Ji didn't make a sound, he just felt guilty last time, so he wanted to support Han Yi.

Han Yi's eyes rolled, and he suddenly said: "Otherwise, this title can still be passed on to the eldest son, as a reward for the meritorious heroes, but there is one point, only those meritorious heroes who have made great contributions to the country are qualified to pass the title to the eldest son, as for the treatment or anything, there is no such thing, anyway, the land that the imperial court rewards the meritorious heroes, the imperial court will not take it back, it can still be passed on to the next generation, no matter how much, the imperial court will not be able to take it out, rather than covering their ears and stealing the bell, it is better to seek truth from facts." ”

Li Ji, Gao Kan and their ministers all nodded in agreement, the merits of military generals are easier to calculate than those of civil ministers, and the merit of opening up the territory is the merit, and the merit of civil ministers is not easy to calculate.

The rest of the ministers knew that they couldn't argue with Han Yi anymore, and if they wanted to argue again, Han Yi would definitely say, since you are so capable, then you can manage the finances, I can't afford so much.

And now that the treasury owes so much money, smart people will not take over this mess, and if they don't play well, they will definitely be pointed out by thousands of people.

Li Zhi nodded reluctantly, if you had said so earlier, there would be no need to fight, who doesn't know those big truths, knowing that they are unfavorable, but still doing it, that is a last resort, and it can only be abolished with more forced reasons.

The best reason,
