Luoyang Palace, after the retreat of the early dynasty.

Li Chongjiu left Zhou Xu, Su Wei and others to talk in Qianyang Palace.

Li Chongjiu looked at Zhou Xu and asked, "Have all the books and classics in the Luoyang Xiuwen Palace been sorted out?" ”

Zhou Xu replied: "Your Majesty, it has been sorted out, the book of the Xiuwen Hall is from the Jiaze Hall of Chang'an, there were 370,000 volumes of books that year, and Emperor Wu ordered the secretary to supervise Liu Guyan and others to compile these books, eliminate the duplicate and obscene books, and produce more than 37,000 volumes of the imperial book, which are now collected in the Xiuwen Hall of the Eastern Capital. ”

"When our army broke through Luoyang, Ji Shilang had already ordered the soldiers to guard the Xiuwen Palace, and ordered no one to be damaged."

Li Chongjiu said happily: "Ji Chuan has done a good thing, these books are the hard work of his predecessors, Qin Shi Huang made a big mistake by destroying books and pit Confucianism, and I will not learn from him." Fooling the people is only a temporary move, but benefiting the people is the benefit of eternity. ”

Zhou Xu arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty inherits the ancient teachings and respects Confucianism and Taoism, which is done by Mingjun." ”

Li Chongjiu smiled and said: "Of course, what I mean is this, books can be read by the world, not exclusive to the royal family, I want you to check more books from the people, and copy two copies of these more than 30,000 volumes of books." One was sent to the Guozijian in Youjing, and the other was decided to set up a academy in Luoyang, so that all knowledgeable children in the world could come to study. ”

Zhou Xu showed a look of joy and said, "Your Majesty, this is a grand event." ”

Li Chongjiu looked at Su Wei and said, "Su Aiqing, what do you think?" ”

Su Wei said: "Weichen also thinks this matter is good. ”

Li Chongjiu said: "Su Aiqing, I want you to be in charge of the school book, and I ask you to be the head of this Luoyang Academy." What do you think? ”

Su Wei couldn't help but be surprised when he heard this, but thought about it. The act of proofreading is a move that will last for centuries. For an old man who is about to die, what is more important than the name behind him. As for being the head of a academy, wouldn't it be that in the future, many scholars in the world will be their own students, which is not only a great honor, but also a great benefit to the Su family's connections.

Su Wei said: "The old minister is old and unworthy of this position, but His Majesty values it, and he does not think that the minister is old and decayed, and he is entrusted with a heavy responsibility." The old minister must do his best to repay His Majesty's grace. ”

Li Chongjiu was relieved to hear this: "I knew that Su Aiqing would definitely agree." ”

Li Chongjiu pondered and said: "I will give Luoyang Academy as the Royal Academy, Su Wei will be the head of the mountain, Zhou Xu, you can assist in this matter, please invite the world's famous Confucians to teach in the Academy, the first batch of scholars of Luoyang Academy, it is limited to one thousand people." Scholars who have been out of school for two years in Luoyang Academy can be exempted from the county examination and directly enter their hometown to participate in the county examination. If it is particularly excellent. You can recommend it directly to me. ”

Zhou Xu and Su Wei said yes at the moment.

There are scholars in Luoyang, children of Wuling, and Li Chongjiu let the scholars enter Luoyang Academy to study, which is also used to win people's hearts. It is equivalent to opening a shortcut to the south for the children of the Luoyang Shi clan and letting them work for Da Zhao.

Li Chongjiu asked Zhou Xu: "How is the county school going this autumn?" ”

Zhou Xu heard this: "The regulations of the county school examination. It has long been drawn up, and one volume is four books and five classics. The second volume is astronomy, geography, arithmetic, and agricultural knowledge, and the third volume is strategy. The county school and county bachelors have long been accustomed to it, and the national examination two years ago also adopted the method of these three volumes as the national selection material, and the scholars and the common people are still more praised. ”

Li Chongjiu listened and asked: "At the beginning, Ji Aiqing once told me that the matter of taking talents and running a county school is not a ten-year achievement, but now it has been almost ten years, and the county school and county school have been effective, which is really gratifying." This is all Zhou Aiqing, you have taught meritorious. ”

Zhou Xu heard this and hurriedly said: "Weichen doesn't dare to take credit. This is a matter of His Majesty's emphasis on education, and it is regarded as a national policy. Since the rhyme and punctuation mentioned by His Majesty have been popularized among the people, many children of poor families like ministers have the opportunity to study and study. Therefore, in recent years, there have been countless talents cultivated by the county school and the county school. ”

Li Chongjiu sighed when he heard this: "Ten years of life and gathering, ten years of upbringing, the more the end of the Wu, and today, the talents of the Han clan all agree that I take the test of the county and county, and it is not easy to be the criterion for selecting talents." ”

Zhou Zhou also thought of the hard work of cultivating talents in the past ten years, and he was also overwhelmed with emotion, and now his two most proud disciples, Zhao Xin and Zhou Zhou, are already official county guards, which makes him not happy.

Li Chongjiu said: "The talents in the world are like carp crossing the river, and there are so many talented and learned people, but my official position in Dazhao is limited, and it may not be easy to take all the people." ”

Zhou Xu said: "The imperial examination is a great ceremony for the country to discuss talent and scholars, and the elite among the talents is selected to assist His Majesty and Kuang Fu Sheji, if everyone can be an official, why do you need the imperial examination." ”

Li Chongjiu said: "Zhou Aiqing's words are too biased, people still don't fight for the length of a day, not to mention an exam, you can determine a person's life, those who do not have the first place, does not mean that they are not talents, although the imperial examination is standardized, but there are still gaps, do you know that the county test county test national test is a scholar, how many people can be in the first place?" ”

Zhou Xu heard Li Chongjiu say this, and thought for a moment and said: "There are dozens of counties and hundreds of counties in Dazhao, and the education and folk customs of each county are also different. For example, in a large county like Jixian County, every time the county exam, whether it is the first time to participate in the county exam, or the one who has not been ranked for many years, there are as many as five or six hundred, but the Jixian county test is a scholar, only 50 people can be promoted to the county school, only 20 people can go to the local office, and the total of ten is only two or three. ”

"If it is a county test, then it will be even more difficult, several counties and heroes will take the test, and there will be only thirty people in one county who can enter the country's sub-prison, only a dozen people will enter the county as officials, and only one or two out of ten will be taken. In the final national examination, the elites of more than 20 counties will take the exam, and the ten will be less than one. ”

Li Chongjiu heard Zhou Xu say this, and thought to himself that it is like this now, so the imperial examination in later generations is not more difficult, not to mention the examples of Fan Jin and so on, compared to the current college entrance examination, the imperial examination in the past is more harsh.

Li Chongjiu immediately said: "The matter of the imperial examination is tiring, although it is a good way to get a scholar, but how many people expect to ascend to the first place, and from then on, there are different fish and dragons, and in the end, there are still those who are not in the first place, and they have wasted their lives in vain." ”

Su Wei said on the side: "Your Majesty is already giving those poor scholars a chance, if they used to be a scholar in the past, those people would not even have the qualifications to win the official, not to mention that Your Majesty would give the first scholar, and they would still have the opportunity to be officials in the county." ”

Li Chongjiu said: "Su Aiqing, this is not enough, compared to the talents in the world, I still need to open the door widely." ”

Zhou Xu asked at the moment: "Your Majesty, isn't it already a plan?" ”

Li Chongjiu nodded and said: "Yes, I have already had an idea, I want to change the way of the imperial examination to only take the ugliness of civil officials, and I can also use my intention to select military positions." ”

Zhou Xu was surprised when he heard this, and asked, "How does Your Majesty select martial arts?" ”

Li Chongjiu thought for a while and said: "I will take this county test as the first, and among the scholars who fail in the county examination, I will take another exam, this is the martial arts test, and I will select martial arts positions for the country." ”

"Martial arts? Selection of military positions? Li Chongjiu's words shocked Su Wei and Zhou Xu, what kind of martial arts test does Li Chongjiu want these non-first scholars to take?

Li Chongjiu said: "The county examination is the way to select the civil service, to test the four books and five classics, astronomy, geography, arithmetic, agricultural knowledge, and three volumes, right?" In the martial arts test, I conducted five tests: riding, shooting, writing, military strategy, and strategy. ”

Zhou Xu and Su Wei were stunned when they heard this. Zhou Xu was the first to object: "Your Majesty, the scholars who participated in the county examination are so obsessed with reading, and they don't know the way of riding and archery at all." ”

Li Chongjiu said: "I don't want them to know anything except reading, the saint has six arts, courtesy, music, archery, royalty, calligraphy, and mathematics." Shooting doesn't need to be mentioned, there are clouds in the etiquette, shooters, men's things, as for the royal, now is not the Spring and Autumn Warring States, the scholars don't have to drive to fight, so the imperial art can be changed to riding, riding, shooting is no problem, and the book is just to test their words and grammar, will not be sad about the four books and five classics, as for the military strategy, it is just a simple march formation, the military strategy is right, as for the policy to ask ......"

Su Wei asked, "What does Your Majesty think is the difference between the questions of the martial arts test and the questions of the literary test?" ”

Li Chongjiu said: "The strategy of the literary test is to test the way of the country in the longitude and latitude of the school, and the strategy of the military test should be based on the major military events such as breaking Li Tang and destroying Goguryeo. ”

Su Wei listened to it and said happily: "Your Majesty's majesty and majesty are really admired by the old minister. ”

Zhou Xu is obviously not so easy to be persuaded, as the supreme official of Guozijian, that is, the principal of the Central Party School equivalent to Zhao Guo now, he obviously has to think more thoroughly.

Zhou Xu asked: "Your Majesty, those who are in the county examination, the first-class can enter the national prison, and the second-rate can enter the county government as officials, what about the martial arts examination?" ”

Li Chongjiu said: "First-class people can enter the government soldiers, awarded to Sima, Sicang to join the army, Si Bing to join the army, marching to join the army, infantry captain, Yue cavalry captain, second-rate, can enter the county soldiers, but also to join the army, treasurer, general, clerk to appoint." ”

Zhou Xu listened and nodded, although he had no objections, he seemed to be puzzled in his heart.

Li Chongjiu said: "Zhou sacrifice wine, you and I have been a monarch for many years, and I have something to say." ”

Zhou Xu said: "Although His Majesty's proposal is correct, Weichen doesn't understand, why don't you let the scholars who are good at reading be civil officials, and the scholars who are good at martial arts should be generals, but finally let these scholars who are not good at martial arts go to the army?" ”

When Li Chongjiu heard Zhou Xu say this, he couldn't help but think that this was also a malaise of China's later generations for thousands of years.

During the Song and Ming dynasties, in order to absorb the shortcomings of the military generals and the civil war of the warlords in the last years of the Sui and Tang dynasties, the civil and military disciplines began to be civilized and military. Unlike in the Sui and Tang dynasties, it was not a problem for the children of the family to move from military generals to civilian positions, or from civilian to military generals. Therefore, in the Sui and Tang dynasties, Yang Su was born, Xu Shiji was able to calm the world, and Wen was able to live in Zaifu.

And Song Ming, most of the time, he didn't know the martial arts, the martial arts didn't know the literature, the scholars despised the martial arts for Qiu Ba, and the martial arts were complacent because they didn't know the big characters. In this way, although the internal affairs are stable, but externally, there is no longer the Sui and Tang dynasties, and the pioneering and enterprising momentum can only be reduced to a defensive success, and finally die in a foreign race.

Treating military personnel as a lowly duty is a disadvantage in any country that wants to forge ahead. What Li Chongjiu wants to do is to let the world's scholars not only have a civilian career, but also a military career to choose from. Students who want to take the county martial arts examination must be a scholar who has graduated from the county school. Let these scholars who can be literate and martial join the army to strengthen the strength of Li Chongjiu's current government soldiers and county soldiers. (To be continued......)
