"What are the pros and cons of the imperial examination?" The eldest grandson Chong groaned, he really never thought about this thing, because he had never stood at such a height, people were like this, and when he didn't reach the corresponding height, he had various limitations in looking at a problem. Either very far from it, or it is relatively one-sided. So in the face of Li Er's question, Changsun Chong really didn't have a suitable answer for a while. But he's also quite witty.

"Enlighten the Holy Lord!" The eldest grandson Chong paced slowly, and then bowed slightly and replied: "Weichen thinks that this imperial examination has advantages and disadvantages, the advantage is that the scholars of the poor family have the hope of getting ahead, so the majesty of the poor family in the world will be loved by them, since ancient times, there are many talented people in the cold family, no matter which dynasty there are always outstanding people who were born in the end of the year, whether they are ministers or kings, Mencius once said: Shun is in the acres, Fu Shuo is raised in the plate building, Jiao is raised in the fish and salt, Guan Yiwu is raised in the scholar, Sun Shu Ao is raised in the sea, and Baili Xi is raised in the city. These people were born at the end of the year, but each of them has left a heavy mark in history, which is a favorable aspect, the saint can get the support of the poor family, and I can have a lot of poor officials available in the Tang Dynasty, after these people take office, for the local people, these officials can better understand the people's suffering, and do things for the people. This is a relatively advantageous aspect compared to officials born into a family. The eldest grandson Chong talked eloquently, for whether they were born prominent or poor, these officials who are in politics do differently after taking office, because the fundamental interests they represent are different, and the officials of the born family are more concerned about the interests of the family after taking office, because they are the vested interests of this interest relationship. Therefore, it is a matter of course to safeguard the interests of this class. It's just that if you do this, it will damage the interests of the people, because the family is exploiting the people to have such an advantage.

"But relatively speaking. There is an irreconcilable contradiction between the interests of the common people and the interests of the family, because the family has countless lands in their hands. The land annexation made them the people they are now, but after the officials of the poor family rose to high positions, if they kept their original intentions, there would definitely be a violent conflict. Therefore, after the imperial examination, the family will definitely stand on the opposite side. Changsun Chong continued, he just thought about it now, and it didn't matter how many officials were born here, at least Xiao Yu was the representative of the Lanling Xiao family, and Wei Zheng, who had always had an unclear relationship with the Shandong family. Even Cheng Yanjin's wife was born in the Jiangdong Pei family. These people are inextricably linked to the family. So as soon as the eldest grandson said this, the court was in an uproar.

The family will definitely stand on the opposite side of the imperial court, so where should these people go? They are burdened with the interests of the family, and some of them are even the head of the family, and in the face of this situation, the court will inevitably be divided into two opposing factions. In the early stage, because the family stands at the top, then the cold officials will definitely be suppressed, which will only intensify the contradictions between each other, and after the later stage. After the officials of the Han clan formed a network of relationships with each other, the two factions were definitely incompatible with each other. Is that really good for an empire?

All the people were thinking about it, they were thinking about this aspect earlier than Changsun Chong, and even Li Er had already thought of this time when he proposed the imperial examination. But no one said it, because it was too sensitive. It's just that no one thought that Li Er would rush out such a question for the eldest grandson, so this time the last fig leaf was torn off. Then these people are going to stand in line, and this time is the real test for the ministers of the entire court.

This time, more than half of the top ten in the imperial imperial examination were born in a poor family. Then these people will be the vanguard of the conquest of the family in the future, so how to face these people has become the biggest problem. They were the best students selected by Li Er's first imperial examination. But they represent the interests of the poor family, and the impact on the family is too great. At this time, even the old fox who had been in the court for half his life began to sweat.

Anything new will have an impact on the old strata of interests, but it will be different in size. Therefore, the conservative conservatives, who represented the original ruling class, would not hesitate to suppress these new forces. It's just that this time this nascent force is tied to Li Er's thigh, so the shape has become subtle. If there is really a conflict, it is a struggle between the family and the imperial power, such turmoil is enough to shake the foundation of the Tang Dynasty, so Li Er took this opportunity to use the eldest grandson Chong to put this qiē on the bright side, even if there is an uproar in the government and the opposition, it can't stop him, because when a qiē floats on the water, then he can use the supreme power in his hand to suppress all this qiē, if it sinks under the water, it is like a reef in the water, Datang has a big ship, and there is a danger that it will capsize under the reef at any time.

The eldest grandson Wuji also knows this principle, so he looked at his son standing in the hall with an anxious face, and secretly complained in his heart, this time his family was really hated to death by those thousand-year-old families, this time the eldest grandson Chong ripped off the last fig leaf, then it became the fuse, no matter who wins and loses in the two rooms in the future, those families will engrave their own family in the enemy's roster, and then the eldest grandson's family can only stand on Li Er's side in the days to come. This is also Li Er's cleverness, he knows that as long as he is still in him, he will never have any other thoughts, but people will always die, so after his death, will the eldest grandson family still stand on the side of the royal family? Or become a relative of Datang? Therefore, in order to prevent trouble, this thoughtful and eloquent emperor directly used this imperial examination to completely mark the eldest grandson's family.

"Your Majesty, this is a matter of importance, and I hope to think twice!" Xiao Yu is out of the ranks, and only he is the most suitable to come forward at this time, because he is the patriarch of the Lanling Xiao family, and the last time Li Er attacked the family, he was completely out of the matter, and they Xiao never participated in the Yangzhou Nine-Storied Pagoda, so in that tragic incident in which all the major families suffered heavy losses, the Lanling Xiao family was unharmed. After that, he was not forced by Li Er to withdraw from the court. Now their Lanling Xiao clan is the biggest family force above this court.

"Why think twice? Xiao Aiqing, do you know what you are talking about at this time? This is a major event related to the society of Datang, do you know that the family is now the biggest obstacle to the further development of Datang? Too much land is in the hands of the family, the interests of the people are seriously damaged, the people are not clothed, and they are not hungry, so it is not far from the death of the Tang Dynasty, can Xiao Aiqing afford this? Li Er asked in a deep voice, he didn't see joy and anger at this time, but anyone could hear the anger in his voice. For an emperor,. There are still many big forces in their own empire, which is simply the most intolerable thing, and the difference between rebellion and rebellion is that these families are small kingdoms within the Tang Empire, and the official rule of the Tang Dynasty will be discounted in the area where they are entrenched. How could Li Er endure such a thing? That's why he picked out a qiē at this time,

"Shengshang, the family has a strong foundation, and has been governing the country for the Tang Dynasty, and I haven't seen any chaos for so many years, so why not follow it? Such unauthorized changes, the rise of the cold door above the court will ultimately damage the national strength of the Tang Dynasty, so that the Tang Dynasty will fall into infighting, then the decline of the national strength will be the country's general!" After Xiao Yu, Wei Zheng also stood up, after all, he still had to seek benefits for the Shandong family, at this time, he couldn't be indifferent. The Shandong Shi clan had been suppressed by Li Er once before, and this time the young people sent by the major families were actually pressed by the cold in this scientific expedition, which is really puzzling. None of the children of these families do not have to run for a livelihood like the children of these families, they only need to read good books to have a good future in the future, each of them has to be busy for their livelihood, and the time to study the books of the sages is less than seventy percent of the children of these families, so they can still strive for the top, which is really a rare talent.

"What, the family still owes it to the community? So what those family officials took away in a carriage when they left the capital last time, Wei Qing must know better than me. That's how these people help me govern this country! So what's the use of me asking them to come? Li Er's voice was completely without a trace of disguise, as cold as Siberian ice that has never been melted. The last time the family agreed to evacuate the court, and then in the subsequent imperial examinations, the juniors of the family competed with the scholars of the world's poor families. This is an agreement between Li Er and them. But when they left, the entire city of Chang'an was almost emptied by them. The treasury of the imperial court was inferior to what the family had taken with them during that migration. What's going on? The combined power of the family is even more than all the taxes of the Tang Dynasty, which means that the control of the Tang Li family is not as much as that of these families. Li Er rushed to the deep chill, like a thorn in his back. So this time, no matter what, it will be finalized in this court. Otherwise, when the poor officials come to the territory of the family, it will be difficult to move an inch, and even life and death will be controlled in the hands of these families. So who would dare to come to participate in the imperial examination?

"Your Majesty, the family has already made compromises and concessions, why do you want to kill them all like this? You must know that the power of the family is still so strong, Datang can't withstand such turmoil! Wei Zheng still didn't flinch, and argued with reason. (To be continued......)
