Chapter 688 The hand wrenched the world back into place, twisting people's hearts and arrogance
The method given by Li Deyi to manage the clan relatives and nobles is very simple, that is, the exam! From now on, the nobles of the clan will participate in the government of the court, but they must pass the examination, and only after passing the examination can they enter the various ministries of the imperial court, participate in the affairs of the court as the nobles and nobles, and even go out as magistrates.

In his last life, Li Deyi was tormented by endless exams. In the previous life, Li Deyi's ability was mediocre since he was a child, and his exam scores have always been low, so he was scolded by his parents a lot, and he has always been a bear child who is not angry and unproductive in his parents' mouths.
But now, after having the memory of two lifetimes, Li Deyi can finally calm down and carefully analyze the pros and cons of this examination system. He found that while this endless stream of exams may seem flawed, the most important thing is that it is a fairer system that convinces everyone.
One of the hardest things in the world is fairness. Li Deyi has two lifetimes of memory, and he has seen a lot of farce that seems fair at first, but ends up being just laughing and generous. So in the end, Li Deyi still chose to copy the endless examination system he experienced in his previous life and use it.
As for whether there is a little bit of his personal bad taste in this, it is difficult to say. The children of the powerful in the previous life can easily become winners in life without going through this endless torture of exams.
Probably Li Deyi has a chance in this life, and he always wants these clan nobles to taste the torture of the exam.
Among the regulations for the emperors of the Three Kingdoms, Li Deyi gave the emperors of the Three Kingdoms a special book about the benefits of this endless examination system. The Ping Zhou Dynasty had a public trial system for the imperial court, but it was to select materials for the country, attract talents from all over the world, and enter the emperor's court.
And Li Deyi's examination system is tailor-made for the clan nobles. This kind of examination system, for those who do not learn and have no skills, and still want to inherit the title all day long, is no less than a thunderbolt from the sky.
If you fail the three exams, then I'm sorry, you can only be an idle person for the rest of your life, and maybe you can also participate in the martial arts test. If you haven't passed the martial arts, then you will have no drama in your life and enter the court. You can try to do business, or you can eat with the court's money and wait for your life to die.
Of course, even if you pass the exam, you will not necessarily be able to enter the imperial court and participate in court politics. After all, there are only those in the imperial court department, and the official positions have all been determined, and they have already been divided. Part of it is for the big families, and part is for the poor scholars.
Now, as a noble member of the clan, if you want to enter the court like this, you have to have an explanation. This statement comes from the alliance between the garrison and the three kingdoms of the world. The second is the support from the emperor.
Li Deyi deliberately left this power to the emperors of the Three Kingdoms, so that they could restrain their clan relatives and nobles.
In the court, the clan nobles who passed the examination and entered the various ministries did not belong to the family or the scholars, just like a tree without roots, and could not gain a foothold in the court at all. After all, the covenant of the Dingbei garrison requires the clan relatives and nobles to enter the court, but it does not say that it will help them gain a firm foothold in the court.
At this time, the support from the imperial power became the only reliance of these clan nobles. Therefore, these clan relatives and nobles will naturally unite firmly around the emperor and become loyal spokesmen for imperial power.
In this way, the court of the Three Kingdoms will form a stable situation in which the family members, the scholars of the poor family, the clan relatives and nobles, and the three-legged stand together. The emperor has a balance in it, and it is naturally easier to maintain the stability of the court.
But after a long time, because the clan relatives and nobles were born with the national and economic advantages, it is easy to transform them into educational advantages, so as to slowly expand their power in the court, and it is likely to further squeeze the position of the scholars of the poor family in the end.
Li Deyi also seems to have considered this problem, and in his letter to the emperors of the Three Kingdoms, he clearly stipulated that the examination should be divided into several stages, and a group of clan relatives and nobles would be eliminated at each stage. Moreover, in the end, it was only the three clan relatives with the best results who were able to successfully go to court. This exam, like the imperial court public examination, is also a triennial exam.
Some relatives and nobles said, since this exam is so difficult, anyway, I was born with a golden spoon in my mouth, can't I just not take the exam? I'm sorry, if you don't take this exam, you won't be able to inherit your father's title in the future. After all, no one wants to hand over the family business to a fool to inherit, and they all hope that their son can have a good life. The state pays for you clan relatives and nobles every year, on the one hand, to reward your fathers and ancestors for their achievements in founding the country, and on the other hand, it also hopes that you can continue to serve the country.
I can't even pass the initial exam, and I'm basically a fool, and I still want to inherit the title? I'm sorry, let's be honest and be an idle clan.
Through this kind of layered civil and military examinations, survival of the fittest, the emperor can always hold the excellent clan relatives and nobles in his own hands, and there is no need to worry that they will take the opportunity to cause chaos after entering the court.
Not surprisingly, after reading this supplementary clause, the emperors of the Three Kingdoms turned their anger into joy and happily agreed to let their clan relatives and nobles join the government and join the army.
In fact, Li Deyi probably deliberately moved the endless examination system of the previous life to this world. In this way, how can these powerful clansmen still have the heart to make trouble. The clan relatives and nobles went to a special royal college, and the beginning of the school year first came to a preliminary exam, then a mid-term exam, and a final exam. There are three major exams a year, and there are small exams every month, and parents should be invited if the exams are not good. There are also selection exams at each stage, and if you can't pass it, you will be eliminated and go home to find another way to make a living, and finally there will be a college entrance examination, and the college entrance examination will be enough to be eligible to enter the highest level of the royal college to study, and after graduation, you will be eligible to participate in the national department position examination, and each position will be recruited for one......
This third covenant, not surprisingly, was unanimously adopted.
The emperors of the Three Kingdoms once again silently acquiesced in a common fact in their hearts. Don't provoke this Deputy Head Li casually, there are too many damage tricks to prevent it.
Who would have thought that the problem of the founding lord and noble clan, who had already given the emperors of the Three Kingdoms a headache and vigilance, would be easily resolved by this deputy head Li in such an unheard of way. And in this way, the emperors of the Three Kingdoms do not have to bear the charge of killing meritorious heroes, and can continue to maintain their image as the founding monarch of the country.
Although the princes and princes of the Three Kingdoms were unwilling to lose their fiefs and euphemies, the situation was stronger than people. The Dingbei garrison had a knife on its neck, and the only result of disagreement was to go to war. Once the war with the Dingbei garrison starts out, he will inevitably have nothing left, and he will not even be able to save his life. Now that he is compromised, at least he can retain his title, and even his children and grandchildren who have the ability in the family can enter the court and participate in politics.
The lesser of two evils, the nobles of the Three Kingdoms clan finally knew the times as Junjie, and had to agree to this covenant.
Then Li Deyi promulgated Article 4 of the Covenant. From the date of the conclusion of the Covenant, civil officials are not allowed to interfere in military affairs, military generals are not allowed to interfere in government affairs, and civil and military lords are separated. Military generals have the titles of military generals, and civil officials have the titles of civil officials, and the same set is no longer used. The civilian officials in charge of the military affairs of the Three Kingdoms were like the military department of the Pingming Kingdom, and they were no longer in charge of military affairs. Following the example of the former Ping Zhou Dynasty, the Privy Council was re-established, and the emperor appointed himself as the chief envoy of the Privy Council and the supreme commander of the national army.
The appointment of all military generals is under the control of the Privy Council, and civilian officials must no longer interfere in the slightest military affairs. From then on, civil officials wanted to win knighthoods for themselves by virtue of their military merits, sorry, this road no longer worked. The title of military general will restore the military merit title system established by the founding Taizu of the Ping Zhou Dynasty more than 600 years ago, and it will be divided into 20 levels of military merit titles. First-class public servants, two on the top, three hairpins, four not more.
The title of civil official still adopts the set of princes and uncles.
Looking at the unconvinced and resentful faces of some civil officials of the Three Kingdoms, Li Deyi had a good time with them again: "Do your own calculations, how many defeats has the former Ping Zhou Dynasty suffered since it began to use civilian officials to command the army?" Civil officials should not always think about military affairs, they have specializations in the art industry, and leave professional affairs to professional people to do. ā
In this regard, Ping Tang Guowei bluntly said that he obviously had an opinion. Zhang Zifang of Ping Hanguo, and others also have a lot of complaints. They are all civil servants who are proficient in military affairs and have been on the battlefield, and they are the pillars of the country who can be civil and martial.
Of course, Li Deyi has a lot of respect for this kind of talent, but he still tries his best to convince them: "Of course, there are many talents who can write and martial arts. However, most civilian officials were not familiar with military affairs, and reluctance to fight often led to a major defeat. During the former Ping Zhou Dynasty, Han Weiqi, a famous minister for a while, was able to lead the elite main force to go out because Jane was in the emperor's heart, and everyone knew what the result was. Tens of thousands of elites died in the first battle, and it was not until Di Dashuai trained the Weibei battalion that the border defense of the former Ping Zhou Dynasty improved again. Civilian domination of military generals often leads to discord between generals, and even loses the war as a result. Moreover, after the war, the civil and military passed the buck to each other. The major affairs of the country of soldiers, the place of life and death, in the last years of the Zhou Dynasty in the former Ping, but it became a place where the civil and military factions shirked the responsibility for the defeat, which is really the misfortune of the country and the misfortune of all the people in the world. ā
Seeing that the civilian officials still refused to let go, Li Deyi continued: "Those of you who are proficient in military affairs can go to military academies in various countries to teach military affairs to cadets. I will restore the Fuguo Military Academy, which was in decline during the former Ping Zhou Dynasty in the Three Kingdoms, and all military generals in the future must study at the military academy for more than two years before they can serve in the local army. All of you can pass on your military talents to your disciples, so that they can show their ambitions on the battlefield for you. ā
In fact, the main reason why civilian officials opposed this alliance was because they would lose their ability to restrain military generals. Civil officials, you know the name when you hear it, at least you have to have some culture. One of the most obvious characteristics of cultural people is that they are arrogant and cannot tolerate others being higher than themselves. The emperor has no choice, the generals still have to be firmly pressed under him, and they must not let these stinky hills turn over.
