The spring of the seventh year of Song Jingkang came in a blink of an eye. As the spring gradually became stronger in Chang'an City, the city of the first good city in the Western Song Dynasty, which had been cats for a winter, finally had a little vitality again.

Unlike Kaifeng Prefecture, Chang'an Fucheng, the capital of the Western Song Dynasty, was a rather depressed city. It was originally a small mansion city, but now it has built many Kuofang. Business activities are also greatly restricted, and can only be carried out in a specific area.

However, this spring, the vitality in Chang'an City is more solid than in previous years. Because there is finally something that can be discussed in the streets and alleys of Chang'an City.

This incident is not the Western Expedition in preparation, nor is it the New World where the Great Zhou and the Eastern Song Dynasty discovered some gold everywhere in the foreign oceans - no matter how much gold there is, it is also people's, and it has nothing to do with the common people of the Western Song Dynasty.

And in the spring of the seventh year of Jingkang, the thing that excited the people of the lifeless capital of the Western Song Dynasty was the imperial examination!

Because of the war and land reform, the Ministry of Rites Examination in the Great Song Dynasty (Western Song Dynasty) has been suspended for two sessions...... In fact, since the relocation of the capital, the Great Song Dynasty has not held a single ritual test.

However, in order to show that the Great Song Dynasty did not give up the imperial examination, the liberation examination in Bashu Prefecture County was not canceled, and it was still held every three years.

It's just that after the exam, there is no place to go to the Ministry of Rites and Rites, so what's the use of such a test?

And the scholars of Chang'an Mansion didn't even have the opportunity to participate in the Liberation Test and get addicted. It's so embarrassing for them!

Therefore, in the past few years, there have been scholars and officials who have been studying for the Son of Heaven and asking for the Ministry of Rites to be held.

The official Zhao Huan actually wants to reopen the Ministry of Rites test, so as to win the country as soon as possible. But when he thought of that group of Jingkang staff officers, Zhao Huan was a little frightened.

Does opening a branch of science and technology mean that we have to go down the old road of emphasizing literature over military force? Can those Jingkang staff officers agree? Don't make another mutiny or something......

In this way, it was delayed until the spring of the seventh year of Jingkang, because there were two things to win the hearts of the army, the destruction of Dali and the planning of the Western Expedition, Zhao Huan's courage finally fattened a little, and instructed Geng Nanzhong, He Li, and Chen Dong A group of civilian officials to release the news in the streets and alleys of Chang'an, saying that they were going to open a department and take scholars.

It's not a release test, it's a rite test!

The roll call drama outside the Donghua Gate is about to start again!

And now in the city of Chang'an Mansion, there are many officials N generation and Xun N generation who came from Kaifeng Mansion, they are neither military households nor businessmen, and they can theoretically take the exam to be officials.

So as soon as I heard that the imperial examination was going to be held, I immediately became excited.

"It's been seven years, seven years! Finally, God has opened his eyes, and the court is going to write again! ”

"Don't be too happy, you haven't said that you will let us Chang'an people take the test! In the past few years, Bashu has not stopped issuing and solving tests, is there a solution test here in Chang'an? ”

"Chang'an Mansion is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, can you still not let the imperial examination?"

"There is this precedent, isn't this the imperial examination of the thief? It's only for Hedong people, and it's not available anywhere else......"

"yes, why don't we go to Bashu with all the household registrations?"

"Let's find someone to inquire first, if we really don't let us take the test, it's not too late for us to move our household registration."

"Yes, I have to inquire clearly......"

The rumors of the market in Chang'an Mansion soon reached the ears of the leaders of the Privy Council.

"Humph!" In the White Tiger Hall of the Privy Council, Qu Duan, who knew the affairs of the Privy Council, snorted coldly, "It's only been a few days since I was stable, and I'm thinking about opening a department...... It seems that the official family is still thinking about sharing the world with scholars!

Pengju, we are both martial artists, and we are not likely to please the likes of civil officials, so it is better to retreat bravely and go home for a few days to celebrate our birthday. ”

Yue Fei smiled faintly: "What's wrong with Kaike?" I think it's good...... There can't only be military households in the world, and the heroes of the world must have a way to rise.

Our country is no more than Jiangning and Tianjin, where people have more roads. If you have a little ability, you can have a good life, and the world will be stable. We can't do it here! ”

"Why not?" Qu Duan glared.

Yue Fei said: "Doesn't the Privy Council have statistics? In recent years, Jiangning and Tianjin have been much more stable, and there is basically no rebellion.

But here, there can still be civil changes every year, and there are commotions every month! ”

The turmoil caused by the land reform had basically ended in the Great Zhou and Eastern Song dynasties.

There are many ways for these two countries to rise, the skills of repression, and two new continents dedicated to the exile of rebels. So the rebellious business gradually became less and less done.

And the Western Song Dynasty is not good, not everyone deserves the military household, there are few other upward channels, and there are all kinds of discrimination when doing business.

Therefore, there are many rebels who take risks, and all kinds of rebel rebellions emerge one after another, and they cannot be suppressed cleanly.

However, it was impossible for these rebellions to overthrow Zhao Huan's reactionary rule, and the combat effectiveness of the Western Song army was beyond doubt.

However, it was also difficult for the Western Song Dynasty army to exterminate all kinds of rebels and occupy the mountains as kings, and there were still many things in the Western Song Dynasty.

Therefore, it seems necessary to use the Kaike to attract the local heroes.

"Pengju," Qu Duan said with a frown, "If the imperial examination is not opened, once it is opened, there will be a lot of trouble!"

Don't say anything, just say that the children of the military families below will you let them take the test?

If you don't let you take the test, the military household will be inferior. Let them take the exam, the children of military families have become scholars, who will still be soldiers and fight? Our country is not a thief after all. They are a country under heaven, and there are many channels for ascension, and the oil and water for officials are limited. Moreover, the imperial examination officials in Hedong are not good enough for the climate, and they are not comparable to the new-style officials from the university at all. ”

On the surface, the imperial examination is for the country, but in fact it has many functions, such as disarming the civil armed forces, imprisoning the civil wise men, and distributing the wealth of the people is actually extremely important.

For a long period of time, whether a family or clan is poor or rich is closely related to the results of the imperial examination!

And the state system of the Great Zhou has completely changed, not an imperial country, but a country of citizens.

Therefore, there is no room for power and fortune when he is admitted to the affairs officer, and it is impossible to improve the level of citizenship in the family.

Moreover, the number of imperial examination officials in Hedong is very small, every three years, but there are only a dozen jinshi. The official positions are also very simple, that is, the county order, the chief bookkeeper, and the county lieutenant. After winning the jinshi, he will be a county lieutenant, and then he will be promoted to the top of the examination every three years, and he will be retained in the middle class, and the lower class will go home to pick up the child and make room for the new jinshi by the way. And a third of the officials must be eliminated every time...... Moreover, these three types of officials are all administrative officials, and if they are not officials, they will have nothing, and they can receive a retirement pension at most. And then there are the ordinary citizens!

Therefore, the Hedong imperial examination of the Zhou State only looks like the imperial examination, but in fact it is still an administrative officer appointed by the Senate - the system of local administrative officials in the Great Zhou is very strange, both locally elected and directly appointed by the Senate. Therefore, the essence of the Hedong imperial examination is nothing more than the senate using the method of examination to select administrative officials.

"I know," Yue Fei nodded, "but my Great Song Dynasty has its own national conditions here, and it is impossible for the imperial examination to be abolished suddenly." ”

"Can't be scrapped?"

Yue Fei shook his head, "It can't be abolished, but it can be changed!" ”

"Change? How to change? ”

Yue Fei said: "The content of the exam can be changed. ”

"What to test?" Qu Duan asked.

Yue Fei thought for a while, and suddenly raised his hand and pointed to a weapon shelf in the White Tiger Hall, "How about taking that test?" ”

"That's ......" Qu Duan raised his eyes and was stunned, "Pengju, it seems to be an arquebus!" ”

It was a Republican eight-year-old heavy smoothbore gun that had been captured from the battlefield and brought to the Privy Council. Later, he made a sample in the White Tiger Festival Hall to compare it with the products sent by the Chang'an Gunsmith Factory.

"That's an arquebus!" Yue Fei smiled, "Xia Guan Jue, if you don't take the imperial examination, you should take the arquebus......

……

"What? Yue, Yueqing, what did you say? ”

Huaqing Palace, Chongzheng Palace. Zhao Huan, the official of the Great Song Dynasty, listened to Yue Fei's performance, and he couldn't even say anything.

"Your Majesty," Yue Fei said with a smile, "When the ministers heard that the imperial court was interested in opening a department to recruit scholars, they thought that they might be able to shoot targets and select useful talents for the imperial court." ”

Target Hunting......

Zhao Huan's eyes were about to pop out.

"Nonsense!" Zuo Xiang Geng Nanzhong was about to roar.

It's so insulting.

Imperial Examination! So how can a sacred thing be decided by target shooting?

"Yue Fei, why don't you say that you are a martial artist?" He Li asked.

"Tournament?" Yue Fei said seriously, "It's still a good opinion, and it is indeed possible to compete with martial arts." ”

Qu Duan, who knew the affairs of the Privy Council, also said: "Your Majesty, the minister seconded the proposal and was in favor of the contest. ”

Okay, the two military leaders are here to make trouble!

Zhao Huan really couldn't cry anymore. The military attache of the Great Song Dynasty was so arrogant that he dared to play tricks in the Chongzheng Palace.

If it had been in the early years, the imperial history of the palace would have been impeached a long time ago.

Thinking of the imperial history, Zhao Huan glanced at the imperial history of Cheng Qin Hui.

Qin Hui was glanced at by Zhao Huan, and hurriedly went out of class to play: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that it is not good to compete with martial arts, after all, it is a literary act, how can you compare martial arts?" The contest is still used to motivate the children of military households. Or it can open a way for the children of military families to compete and be promoted. ”

Zhao Huan nodded, thinking: Qin Hui is still a military attache who has a character and is not afraid of arrogance and domineering.

Qin Hui continued: "As for the Wenju test and target shooting, the minister thinks it is feasible. ”

Okay, find a traitor! Zhao Huan saw through Qin Hui at once, this guy is a spineless traitor! You are more treacherous than Yue Fei......

The traitor Qin Hui continued to play: "It's good to test the target, it's the fairest to take the target." You can openly shoot the target, whether you hit it or not, it is clear at a glance, and no one can fake it. Moreover, the target test can also improve the level of non-governmental firearms. Now the guns made by the Ordnance Supervision are not as good as those in Tianjin and Jiangning, and in the long run, the country will not be a country! If we can let the talented people of the Great Song Dynasty use target shooting to win soldiers, they will definitely find ways to build good guns, and in the future, our Great Song Dynasty will not suffer a loss in firearms. ”
