The fact that the Tang Dynasty was able to spread movable type printing technology by allowing it to be promoted made Li Xuan feel very incredible. The promotion and dissemination of movable type printing technology is bound to cause major losses to the interests of the major wealthy families, but it is in this Tang Dynasty that it is unbelievable. And this turning point turned out to be because of the words of Yan Zhitui, a generation of great Confucianism and Confucian masters: It is not easy to inherit and spread Confucianism, and the promotion and dissemination of movable type printing is conducive to the spread of Confucian ideas and learning, and it is conducive to all the people of the Tang Dynasty to contact the way of the sages and learn the knowledge of the sages.

As a person of later generations, Li Xuan felt that Yan Zhitui's words were very big and empty. For the sake of the spread of Confucian ideas and knowledge, can the major wealthy families give up their existing interests? Li Xuan felt that this was impossible, but in the end, the officials of the Tang Dynasty and the elites of the major wealthy families finally chose to promote and spread movable type printing.

After going down, Li Xuan locked himself in the study and thought about the reason repeatedly. Finally, he figured it out: the officials of the Tang Dynasty, the elites of the Tang Dynasty, they have absolute confidence and worship for the Confucianism they believe in. For the officials and elites of the Tang Dynasty, Confucianism is not just a study and a knowledge, but a kind of belief. All the officials of the Tang Dynasty and the elites of the Tang Dynasty can sacrifice everything they have, even their most precious lives, for the Confucianism they believe in. In this way, it is very easy to understand that the major wealthy families sacrificed their major interests and gave up their monopoly on knowledge and books. Confucianism has been immersed in the bones of the entire Chinese nation, and it is a spirit in the bones of the Chinese nation, an idealized and inspiring force. This kind of power is like the later generations of country M, promoting their system and culture to the world, they have absolute trust in their system and culture, and they think that their system and culture are the best. They worship their system and culture, and are willing to sacrifice some of their inherent interests in order to promote and disseminate such an institutional culture. They firmly believe that their system and culture can bring benefits to people all over the world, so that people all over the world can live the same happy life as them, although the results are often not what they think, but they are still happy to promote and spread the system and culture they respect. With the promotion and dissemination of systems and cultures, almost all countries will revolve around country M. Learning from country M's relatively advanced system and culture, thus establishing country M's status as the world's largest country in one fell swoop. The export of this kind of institutional culture, how similar is the Tang Dynasty today and the M country a thousand years later, they have their own systems, cultures, and ideas that they respect and are proud of, influencing other surrounding countries, becoming the center of the entire world civilization, the center of politics, the center of culture, and then the center of the whole world. Establish the status of a super-first-class power in the whole world that is unique and dominated by its own country.

Relatively developed systems, cultures, and ideas, and spare no effort to promote and spread to the whole world, Datang, like a thousand years later, did not choose to close the country, self-cherishing, but at the same time invariably chose to spare no effort to promote and disseminate even if it loses some of the existing interests, so confident and open-minded, such an advanced institutional culture. In the end, they will establish their status as a super-first-class power and dominate the world. The whole world learns from them, respects them, obeys their commands, and the people of their country are proud to have been born in their own country.

In the Taiji Palace, Li Xuan, the king of Yong'an, said to the Tang Emperor Li Shimin: "With the promotion and spread of movable type printing. The whole world can listen to and learn the ways of the saints. More than ten years later, a large number of talents will inevitably emerge among the people. The minister suggested that His Majesty should take precautions and raise the imperial examination to collect the world's talents for his own use. ”

Tang Emperor Li Shimin looked at Li Xuan with admiration. He said, "It's still the king of Yong'an who sees far." More than ten years later, if the talents produced among the people do not open the imperial examination and give them a chance to serve the country, they will not be swept away by the major wealthy families. Isn't my Tang Dynasty still facing the situation where there are no talents available without talents from major wealthy families? ”

Saying that, the Tang Emperor Li Shimin gently patted Li Xuan's shoulder, and said with a smile: "King Yong'an is loyal to the country, far-reaching, and accurate!" ”

The imperial examination system was proposed and implemented by Emperor Yang of the former Sui Dynasty. Since the Qin Dynasty changed the law, the Qin Dynasty gradually became a feudal state, and the power of the state was actually held by the emperor and nobles, and the common people, as the largest number of people in society, did not have much access to power. However, in order to provide a righteous and bright upward channel for the vast number of ordinary people, and an opportunity to get in touch with power, some people proposed to Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty to establish the imperial examination system in order to recruit talents among the common people for the use of the state. At that time, Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty was also, like all previous emperors, the most feared forces were the wealthy families of Shandong that had been inherited for nearly a thousand years and the Guanlong aristocratic group that controlled military power. Because of the lessons of blood in history, he was told again and again that only these two wealthy families who held power with him would threaten his position, threaten his rule, overthrow his Great Sui, and take his life. Therefore, on the one hand, he vigorously and secretly supported the southern scholars, forming a check and balance on the Shandong wealthy clan and the Guanlong aristocracy, and on the other hand, he established the imperial examination to absorb talents among the common people for the use of the country. But although the plan was good, Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty was arrogant and lascivious, greedy for enjoyment, and after reigning for 18 years, he died and the country was destroyed. And now Li Xuan proposed to the Tang Emperor Li Shimin to reopen the imperial examination system in order to recruit talents among the common people for the use of the country. From the beginning of Li Xuan's speech, he knew that the Tang Emperor Li Shimin would definitely agree. Because the Guanlong aristocratic group that controls military power and the Shandong Hao clan group, which has been inherited for nearly a thousand years, are still the biggest threats to the throne of the Tang Dynasty. The Tang Emperor can become the emperor of the whole world from the children of the Longyou Li clan who belong to the Guanlong aristocratic group, and the Longyou Li family has also become the most noble Longyou Li clan royal family in the whole world. Vainly trying to become the emperor of the whole world, to become the most noble royal family in the world? And this is the last thing that the Tang Emperor Li Shimin and the Longyou Li royal family to which he belongs are the most unwilling to see, and it is also something that is resolutely cracked down on and prevented.
