Chen Yang returned to his first seat, with a serious expression on his face, as if he attached great importance to what Qin Yi was about to say!

Seeing this, Qin Yi straightened out his thoughts in his heart, and arched his hand: "The college examination list is released, and the student is in the first place. Although the students were happy, they were troubled by what happened after this, so I would like to ask the two adults to give the students some ideas! ”

In fact, this is similar to some of the situations described in the policy essays written by the students. In order to expand their own power, the family will use its own resource advantages and economic temptations to win over some poor students, so that they can serve themselves. ”

"Now, that's what happened to the students!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Yang's originally serious expression immediately became serious, his face became a little gloomy, and his two eyebrows were wrinkled like a rope. Ge Wenqiu on the side was even more so, but Ge Wenqiu's face showed some kind of worry.

"The Zheng family, the Chen family, and some other families have all come to the students, hoping that the students can join their families! If the student is a famous family, it is obvious that this situation will not be encountered. However, the student's background is just a cloth cloth after all, and he will naturally be favored by those families because of his first name. ”

However, the students only wanted to be free, and they did not want to join any faction or family, so they rejected them. However, they could not get rid of their entanglement......"

"This situation has existed since ancient times, and we are powerless to change it!" Before Qin Yi finished speaking, he was interrupted by Chen Yang, and his voice was filled with a little worry, "Just like the situation described in your strategy, in the end, a big family that monopolizes the officialdom in a certain region will be formed-the gate valve!" ”

"However, this is also not to blame those poor students!" Ge Wenqiu sighed, "After all, the purpose of the children of the poor family to participate in the imperial examination is naturally to change their own situation. Since the famous family has provided them with such an opportunity, they will naturally throw themselves into their arms. ”

"As you say, we can't prevent this from happening, but we can disrupt the process of forming such a large family. For example, the abolition of certain official positions, such as the administration of government in other places, and the transfer of the appointment power of all official positions in all places to the imperial court! ”

What Chen Yang said is actually Qin Yice's reform method for the official system.

The current official system is based on the imperial examination, and those who pass the county examination can hold certain official positions in the local towns; Those who pass the county examination can hold an official position at the local county level; As for those who have passed the state examination, they can hold official positions at the local county level.

The first two only need a document from the state government to take office, while the latter requires the imperial court to promulgate a document before they can be appointed. But in any case, the place where they work is the local or surrounding counties. Therefore, this kind of bureaucracy, under certain conditions, will monopolize the official position of a region and form a family-style ruling system.

Or to put it more bluntly, over time, almost all official positions in a county may be held by a family member. Even if it's not a family, it's more or less connected to this family.

However, if the appointment of county magistrates is transferred to the imperial court, or some flashy official positions are abolished, or the government is taken over from a different place, all this will be easily solved.

However, the difficulties involved in achieving such a goal are enormous. The pressure from the noble families was enough to collapse the institution in charge of the appointment of officials in the imperial court.

Qin Yi listened to Chen Yang's words and gradually fell into deep thought. No wonder the Chen family and the Zheng family will take such a fancy to themselves, the reason for this makes people shudder when they think about it carefully!

"If you want to get rid of those family entanglements, then you have to stand taller than them, at least you have to get rid of your current status as a poor student. In this way, they will have no reason to win you over! ”

Chen Yang pointed out a path to Qin Yi, and Qin Yi understood very clearly, this is a method to treat both the symptoms and the root causes, and in addition, there is no shortcut that can allow Qin Yi to get rid of the entanglement of family forces.

That's right, only after the Qin family where they belong has become a famous family on an equal footing with those people, will they give up such an idea. Just imagine, the Qin family has also become a famous family and has its own resources, what other conditions can the Zheng family and other family forces put forward to tempt and win over?

However, then again, the most important thing is yourself. If the poor students themselves can't recognize the drawbacks and are willing to become officials driven by others, it can only be said that they have lost their independent personality as scholars!

"Thank you for your advice!" Qin Yi wanted to understand these things in his heart, and the originally sad look on his face disappeared without a trace, "Princes and generals, would you rather have a kind?" A poor family can also become a famous family! ”

"Good ambition! It seems that you are as resolute as Liu Yi has said, which is not comparable to ordinary students! ”

Qin Yi couldn't help but be stunned when he heard Chen Yang's praise, and his face became weird: "......What do adults mean?"

"Liu Yi has already told the official about you! The fact that you can write those poems is enough to show that your talent is no less than that of ordinary people. Chen Yang's face had a smiling expression, as if he knew something, "He also said that some of your personality made the official appreciate it, and that policy discussion made the official even more impressed, so the official will take the opportunity to inspect the town and court examinations to summon you to meet!" ”

Qin Yi listened to Chen Yang's words, and couldn't help but show an embarrassed look on his face. He knew that Liu Yi must have told Chen Yang that his poem was written by Qin Yi. Otherwise, Chen Yang would not have said those few words.

However, fortunately, Chen Yang did not pursue anything, but showed a look of approval to Qin Yi, but let him seize the opportunity: "The words of adults are recognition of students!" Students will never fail to live up to the love of adults! ”

As he spoke, Qin Yi flipped the small box in his hand that contained the seal of the Academy of Literature, as if he was promising something to Chen Yang.

"On the 20th, remember to go to the Academy of Literature, and the presiding work of compiling the "Hundred Strategies Collection" will be handed over to you! Also, don't forget that you'll have to rewrite a strategy! ”

Ge Wenqiu repeated some things again, and after telling Qin Yi a bit, it was equivalent to issuing an eviction order.

Qin Yi looked at the sky, then got up and said goodbye: "The love of adults, students must remember!"
