Chapter 1228 - Open the Doctor
Emperor Wude Li Yi ruled Huaxia, he originally thought that the system would give some rewards, or directly upgrade to the eighth-level system, or just like he played the Three Kingdoms 11 game in his previous life, after dominating the world, the game will be gameover. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
But to his surprise, the system didn't react at all, as if his domination was just a trivial matter.
The system did not respond, and Li Yi ordered all the troops of the southern expedition to be stationed on the spot first to stabilize the law and order in the newly conquered area.
As for himself, he naturally won't stay in Jiangnan. Although there is a crown prince in the court, as the emperor, it is not a good thing for him to leave the center for a long time. Therefore, Li Yi took the Yanjing during the Navy and returned north to the Yujin Naval Base from the sea, and then returned to Jicheng.
The summoning system did not react, but the people of the Tang Dynasty were still happy that the Tang Dynasty would unify the world, and the hundred officials in the court also proposed to Emperor Wude Li Yi that they should celebrate the unification of the world in some ways. For example, amnesty to the world, or recruiting talents.
So, at the court meeting the next day, a hundred officials headed by the national ruler Cai Yong, Prime Minister Kou Zhun, and Taifu Cao Cao jointly put forward a proposal.
"Your Majesty," Cai Yong, the reignant ......of the country, walked out and said, "Now that the imperial court is stable, it has recently conquered Shu Han and Eastern Wu, as well as Nanban, Tiannan, and the Western Regions, so that there are many vacancies in hundreds of officials. In order to effectively govern these areas, the prefectures and counties should be ordered to be filial piety and honest and fill their posts. ”
Although Li Yi has changed many systems of the Han Dynasty over the years, such as the military system and the official system, he has not completely changed in terms of employing people, because the influence of the gate lord clan has always been too great. Before the world was unified, Li Yi did not want to completely break with the gate lord clan. Therefore, although he set up the Jingshi University Hall to replace Taixue as a real official school, and established a top-down four-level school system, he never abolished the filial piety and honesty system of the Han Dynasty.
However, now Li Yi believes that the time is ripe for him to ban the system of filial piety and honesty and implement his own plan.
………………
Filial piety is an annual move, that is, the state and county must recommend talents to the central government every year, and there is a limit on the number of people. With 200,000 as the base number, one person will be raised, and more will be raised, and less will be less. Datang now has a population of 50 million, so the number should be cited as 250.
Most of the qualifications of those who were promoted to filial piety were state and county officials or Confucian scholars who were well-versed in scriptures. In fact, to put it bluntly, they are all children of the scholar clan, and it is the way for the gate lord clan to control the people from generation to generation. The Yuan family of the fourth and third dukes, the four three dukes are all recommended by their predecessors to be filial piety, which can be seen.
Hundreds of officials should be filial piety and honesty, so that the children of their own scholars can come to the fore and inherit the authority to rule the people.
The so-called scholar clan is a famous family that has been an official for generations, and its generational influence has caused the important official positions of the imperial court and the state to be often monopolized by a few clans, and the influence of personal background on their official career is far greater than their own talents and expertise.
To put it more seriously, even if you are an idiot, as long as the family has power, you can be a high-ranking official.
Facts have proven that the political system in which the scholars hold power has now hindered the great development of the Chinese nation. It is precisely because of the existence of the scholar clan that it has caused chaos in another time and space, and even the Tang Dynasty also has foreign blood.
Because of more than 20 years of war, the power of the scholars has been greatly weakened, and Li Yi will never let the scholars rise again in the empire he established, so he said: "Filial piety is too limited, more people should be given opportunities, and the imperial examination system should be used to select talents for the imperial court." ”
"What is the imperial examination system?" Guanglu Temple Qing Yang Biao asked.
The Tang Empire established by Li Yi has a great similarity between the official system and the Ming Empire in another time and space. set up a province of Zhongshu, which is headed by the prime minister; There is also a military aircraft department, similar to the cabinet of the Ming Dynasty; Below it is the Jiuqing composed of the six departments, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the General Political Envoy and the Dali Temple; Further down, there are six departments, five temples, Zhan Shifu, Tai Hospital, Jingshi University Hall, Taixue and so on.
Six sections, namely, officials, households, rites, soldiers, criminals, and workers. He is in charge of the attendants, admonishes, mending, picking up relics, and inspecting the affairs of the six departments. Yes, one person is given to each of them, one person is given to each of them on the left and right, and a mid-level official is given to them.
The Five Temples are the abbreviations of the Five Yamen, including Dali Temple, Taichang Temple, Guanglu Temple, Taifu Temple, and Honglu Temple. Dali Temple: Equivalent to today's court, it is the highest appellate organ in the country. Together with the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Criminal Department, it forms the Three Law Divisions. Taijoji Temple: In charge of the sacrifice. Guanglu Temple: The supervisor of the banquet. Taifu Temple: Guanma. Honglu Temple: Entertain foreign guests.
Among the five temples, the head of Dali Temple, Dali Temple, is high in the position of Jiuqing, and the position is high, but the status of the other four temples is not so high.
Of course, the official positions of the people in charge of these four positions are still very high, and they are second-grade officials, which are equivalent to Jiuqing. But power, hehe.
To put it bluntly, these four temples are used to arrange some famous old people who are not valued by Li Yi. For example, Yang Biao, the widow of the Han Dynasty, is now Guanglu Siqing.
"The imperial examination system is ......" Li Yi thought about it and felt that it was not realistic to fully adopt it at present, and it was best to adapt to it for a period of time, and then carefully divide the subjects after a few years.
So after a brief introduction, he said: "In general, it is to give everyone the opportunity to show their talents, and to take those who have made achievements in scripture, arithmetic, literature, political trends, etc. ”
Baiguan was stunned for a while, and immediately exploded the pot.
"No, you can't let anyone take the exam!"
"Yes, if the common people and the Shu clan also come, where will the faces of our scholars be placed?"
"The court must be chaotic, and it must not be done like this."
……
For everyone to take the exam, the scholar clan must be excluded by the Shu clan who have more people, which has touched the bottom line of the rule of the scholar clan. Even if Emperor Wude made this suggestion, the hundred officials couldn't keep their mouths, and they were all emotional, waving their arms against it as if they had been beaten with chicken blood.
Especially Yang Biao and other relics of the previous dynasty are even more prominent. They can't be reused by Li Yi now, this filial piety is the only hope for their family to come out, if Li Yi changes, then their family will really never have a future.
Above the court, there was chaos all of a sudden.
Li Yi was annoyed, stood up on the throne and shouted, "Shut up." Those who roar the court will be killed! ”
"Click!"
"Click!"
……
With Li Yi's order, the Imperial Forest Army on duty immediately entered the court, holding sharp weapons and unsheathed swords, just waiting for Li Yi's order, they would kill mercilessly.
The hundred officials were taken aback, all of them were frightened, and hurriedly stopped talking.
But Yang Biao had no intention of backing down, and said: "Your Majesty, by all means, since the Han Dynasty Gaozu, there has never been such a thing in more than 400 years. Your Majesty, you are also from a famous family of scholars from the Han Dynasty, and your descendants will be thousands of generations in the future, you must not do such a thing to break your foundation! ”
Hundreds of officials said yes together, and they all said that Li Yi was also a scholar, how could he let the Shu clan have a chance to get ahead.
Li Yi scoffed at this, his identity as a scholar was a means to gain momentum and achieve great things.
In addition, since ancient times, no emperor has called himself a scholar, so Li Yi, who has lofty ideals, is not interested in the scholar.
Although he didn't like Yang Biao, an old stubborn, he still respected his character, and said softly: "Yang Aiqing, I also know the difficulties, but now that order has just been restored in the world, there is an urgent shortage of talents, so we should recruit talents as much as possible to contribute to the imperial court." ”
Seeing that Li Yi said it was for the imperial court, the hundred officials were silent for a while, but immediately began to refute.
Yang Biao was the first to stand up and said; "If the Shu clan enters the court, it will be chaotic, and it is not the right way to prosperity."
Hundreds of officials are called good together, and Qi is the way to take trouble.
Li Yi saw that he couldn't make a plan, so he immediately rolled his eyes, had a new plan, and said with a smile; "Ladies and gentlemen, everyone said that the scholars should be the most important, right?"
"Yes, what the emperor said is very true!" All the officials said in unison.
So Li Yi smiled slightly and said: "Then for the sake of fairness, the people of the scholar clan should be allowed to vote, if many people support the imperial examination, the imperial examination will be carried out, and the door should be opened widely; If no one responds, then give up, what if? ”
The hundred officials, led by Yang Biao, suddenly thought about it in silence.
In the end, it was Yang Biao who spoke first: "What the emperor said is very true. ”
The hundred officials also understood, let us scholars vote, how can anyone agree?
So, together, they readily agreed.
………………
After the dispersal of the dynasty, Li Yi set up a polling place in front of the gate of the palace, so that all the registered scholars in Jicheng must come to vote.
In order to prevent Li Yi from cheating, Yang Biao and others sat together to supervise.
Li Yi immediately ordered the Shadow Guard to spread remarks among the scholars, saying that there were only two hundred and fifty filial piety people every year, and it would be his turn in what year and month. If you open a wide range of courses and learn from your own talents, you will be able to leap into the dragon gate immediately.
The scholars are pretentious, and when they heard this, they pondered. The younger brother pondered the elder brother, and the side branch pondered the heir. The younger brothers thought when it would be their turn after the elder brother; The side branch believes that there is no chance except for himself. The family is often hundreds of people in a household, and there are more younger brothers than elder brothers, and there are more side branches than grandchildren, and the family supports so many people.
Therefore, most people think that if they recommend themselves, they will never have a chance, and if they take the test extensively, they will definitely be better than others.
Most of these pretentious men who came to vote voted in favor. This shocked Yang Biao and others, and asked again and again why. The voter said, "If you nominate me, you will vote against it." ”
The number of filial piety and honesty in the country is only two hundred and fifty, which is naturally not enough, who dares to promise everyone? If you can't cash it out, it's going to be reversed!
The heads of the families were shocked when they learned about it, and they said that they would mobilize the older generation to suppress it, but it was too late, and Li Yi had already received enough votes.
