"What's the harm in learning from him Cao Wei? Now my Shu Han talent withered, the decree is not good, it is no longer the former sitting on Jingxiang, the north holds Hanzhong, the south is barbaric, if there is no more wanton selection of talents, how to talk about recovering the lost land, recovering the Central Plains, the wish of the Han family! Do you really have to do everything yourself? Liu Chan argued.

In ancient times, the role of talent for a country was often not hard to measure, just as a thousand troops were easy to obtain and a general was hard to find.

As far as Shu Han is concerned, talent is even more urgent, especially in another three years, four years of Jianxing, that is the year when the old ministers of Shu Han fell one after another, maybe it is a coincidence, maybe it is the ethereal providence, and the sky really abandoned Han.

But as Liu Chan who came through the time, he wanted to change history, but he couldn't save a group of courtiers like saving Ma Chao, all he could do was to change the tragic situation of no one in Houshu, and change the desolation of Liao Hua, a general in Shu, who became a pioneer.

Of course, this is not to belittle Liao Hua and say that Liao Hua is not good, but to evaluate the lack of talents in the middle and late Shu Kingdom, and even a reproach to Zhuge Kongming's dictatorship, because many people attribute no one in the late Shu Han Dynasty to Kongming's dictatorship, and other people's talents cannot be brought into play.

"Your Majesty, do you know that this strategy is a big taboo!" Kong Ming patted the case.

"I'm not afraid of any taboos, all the examples in the past are not to change the law and strengthen the country, if you follow the steps and copy the old ancestors of the Han Dynasty, when will my Shu Han be stronger than Wei Wu?" Liu Chan glared angrily, and what he said was even a little rude, because he knew that changing the law may not necessarily save Shu Han, but it may change the tragic situation in the later history of Shu Han.

"Your Majesty, you are making enemies of the entire Yizhou Shi clan! Cao Pi ascended the throne, in order to consolidate his rule, so he suppressed the scholars, although he recruited a lot of talents for the Wei State, but the minister dared to assert that Cao Wei's new policy was not perfect, and he would inevitably cause trouble in the future; And my Shu Han is now in turmoil, the power and influence of the Shi clan are extremely great, we can't have the courage to turn against the Shi class, absolutely not! ”

Hearing this, Liu Chan also realized this, in today's era, the hierarchy is the most serious, the appointment of officials, the selection of talents is based on the background, not talent at all, it is a name rather than a talent, just like Yuan Shao, the overlord of Hebei in the early days of the Three Kingdoms, it is precisely because of his big hat of the fourth and third princes that the world's talents are interested in taking refuge; Cao Cao coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes and the prime minister of the official residence to be qualified to compete in the Central Plains.

Even if it's his cheap father, Liu Bei and Uncle Liu, he also walks the world with the hat of the emperor's uncle, otherwise it would be your turn to help the Han family? Who's going to weave straw shoes after you?

Shinong industry and commerce, even if they are merchants, no matter how much money they make, they still have an underground status, so at the end of the Han Dynasty, there were countless people who bought officials with a lot of money and became among the scholars, laying the foundation for future generations. Even marriage depends on status, under normal circumstances, the wife of the scholar clan will only be the daughter of the scholar clan, and the others can only be concubines.

"What about the other four? Can the Prime Minister approve? Thinking about it carefully, it seems that he also found that the difficulty is not small, Liu Chan's tone gradually weakened, and he began to retreat.

Although Liu Chan has not been in this world for a long time, and he does not have a deep understanding of the concept of hierarchy of the scholars, but from the current point of view, it is not easy to break the shackles of this concept, so it is better to put it aside for the time being.

Moreover, Kong Ming's words are not unreasonable, Shu Han really can't stand the toss now.

"Although the other four have changed a lot, they have not touched the fundamentals, and after the ministers and the civil and military affairs have discussed, they should be able to announce Shuzhong!" Kong Ming said lightly.

"Father, it is not possible to carry out large-scale examinations to select officials, but what about small-scale? The scholars are still dominant, and only a small part of the officials are selected through the examination, and the people selected start from the township level, how about it? For the shortcomings of talents, Liu Chan is still unwilling to give up, because this is the foundation of changing the status quo, and a person's energy is limited after all, even if it is Kong Ming! It's not that I can't bear it in the end!

"Rong Chen, think again!" Closing his eyes slightly, Kong Ming said lightly.

Seeing Kong Ming like this, Liu Chan knew that he was afraid that there would be no results today, so he got up and saluted Kong Ming with a fist, and then left with a grudge.

When Liu Chan left, he saw a Confucian scholar walking out of the back hall, and it could be seen from his expression that this person had a lot of respect for Kong Ming.

"Sir, what Your Majesty just said..."

Still thinking about it again and again, Kong Ming spoke: "Your Majesty is indeed talented, has ideas, and dares to innovate, but after all, it is a little tender, too underestimate the power of the Yizhou scholars, since the first emperor entered Shu, the problem of the scholars has not been solved, and now if they want to implement a new policy, I am afraid that they will be directly forced to turn their faces!" The situation left by the first emperor to His Majesty is far worse than the situation left by Cao Cao to Cao Pi! ”

"But now the court is only the son of my old ministers in Jingzhou, and the minister of Yizhou to Shu, and there are not many new faces appearing!" The Confucian who came out sighed.

"Wei Gong, how do you know Liang's difficulties, every time Liang encounters a huge disaster, I don't know how, I don't know how, I all sigh that if Shi Yuan, Gong Heng, and Zi Chu are still here, how can there be such a predicament?" Kong Ming sighed.

"Sir, my Shu Han can still get through all the difficulties and realize the great ambition of the Zhongxing Han Dynasty!"

Hearing this, Kong Ming looked into the distance and smiled without saying a word.

Liu Chan, who returned to the palace, was in a very bad mood, looking at the stacks of chapters on the table, his mood was even more irritable, and he immediately kicked the bookcase, and the bamboo slips were scattered all over the ground.

"Damn Zhuge Villager! Indecisive, grinding and chirping! Liu Chan roared angrily.

Now, Liu Chan believes that the withering of talents in the middle and late stages of the Shu Kingdom is actually Kong Ming's fault, in his opinion, although the scholar clan is large, but it may not be immovable, Kong Ming is too cautious!

"Your Majesty's anger, Your Majesty's anger! Everything is wrong, but Your Majesty must not be angry, the Holy Body is healthy, and Your Majesty can have a day to show your strength! Seeing that Liu Chan was furious, Huang Hao hurriedly comforted.

Sitting on the ground and taking a deep breath, Liu Chan felt for the first time that the emperor was difficult to do, but as an emperor, he couldn't do "do whatever he wanted", and he was constrained everywhere, not to mention many pockets, no wonder throughout the ages, emperors of all dynasties did not like the ministers, even if you were loyal.

If he wants to implement the new policy, he is indeed blocked, which can be regarded as the first setback that Liu Chan has encountered at present.

Sitting there, the more Liu Chan thought about it, the more irritable he became, and at this moment, Liu Chan felt cold all over his body, and an inexplicable aura quietly surged up, wrapping around Liu Chan's whole body.

Cold, unprecedentedly cold, as if in an ice cellar, biting cold, rigid whole body, as if every cell is gradually losing its vitality.

"Made, what's going on?"

As the temperature of his body became lower and lower, Liu Chan felt that his eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, like a thousand catties, and he wanted to lift them but couldn't.

"Am I going to die? It's going to be over without doing anything? ”
