697 Are you Lao Zhang, or Zhang Rang?
The implementation of such an elimination system has little impact on officials from ordinary backgrounds.
They are originally from the king of volumes, and they don't have any family interests, they can take care of themselves, and the rest is not important, it is the so-called barefoot who are not afraid to wear shoes.
However, for officials from the family, many family officials who have entered the officialdom through special channels are not capable at all.
They are very slippery, but they really get started, and they can't do it without help.
Once the new system is determined to be implemented, these people will face a severe test, those animals in the Yushitai are definitely not joking, Liu Bei let them bite, they will really bite.
In Bingzhou and Youzhou before, many local officials were bitten down, and they were replaced by a group of new and more reliable officials by the Luoyang Imperial Court.
In this wave of the four prefectures of the Central Plains, many officials have been bitten, and the interests of local big families have been harmed to a certain extent.
In the past, talents, mediocre talents and rice buckets could be officials, but now, talents and lucky mediocre talents can be officials, and rice buckets cannot be officials.
As far as the specific number is concerned, the number of mediocre talents and rice buckets far exceeds the number of talents, and once the official positions of the latter two groups are unstable, their political interests will be greatly affected by the high-ranking clans.
Therefore, in this wave, there was great resistance within the ancient literature school and the eunuch group, and they didn't want Liu Bei to pass this policy.
The ancient literature school openly talked to Liu Bei about this matter at the meeting, saying that they did not support it, thinking that this system may only be applicable to Liangzhou, and it is difficult to say whether it is applicable in other places, and some unexpected troubles may be brought by rash implementation.
The old scholars of the ancient literature school represented by Zheng Tai and Jia Xi strongly dissupported this.
"Xuande, you owe consideration in this matter, you can't always do everything according to what you say, and there are many people who have made contributions to the Han Dynasty, if all of them use your method, a person who has made contributions to the Han Dynasty is dismissed, then the people of the world will not be chilled by this?"
"Xuande, it's good that you have a good idea, and we're willing to support it, but you always have to discuss it with us, don't always suddenly come up with a decree to let us know, so that we can't discuss it with you in advance, right?"
"Xuande, there are some things we can support you, but there are some things, it's better for you to think twice, when it comes to officials and official positions, I think you should be more or less calm and think more."
The conservative forces led by Zheng Tai and others have a negative attitude towards this matter, believing that the introduction of this elimination mechanism will greatly damage their interests.
After all, what they did to help Liu Bei defeat the Jinwen School was to become the Jinwen School, no matter how alarmist Liu Bei said before, when the matter came, what they cared about most was their status and interests.
and the interests of the family.
They have done so much with their families, paid so much, waited so much, and what they need is some stable and lasting political interests, such as the control of a certain position in the Luoyang court, or the control of the county governor and the minister of a certain state and county.
Just as Liu Bei had absolute control over the area west of Luoyang, they also wanted such absolute control.
What they want is something tangible, something that can benefit future generations and their families, and they want to divide up these powers together, so that their families can hold these important positions for a long time to obtain long-term benefits and honor.
To become a more powerful school of modern literature.
Instead of involution with the group of guys who failed to help in the battle between modern and ancient texts under the new elimination mechanism - they fought just because they didn't want to involution, and now Liu Bei wants to introduce a new involution mechanism?
This makes them feel embarrassed.
When the modern literary school was there, I rolled it, and the modern literary school didn't return the volume, so didn't I fight the battle of modern and ancient literature in vain?
Don't say yes!
As for the eunuch group, they didn't dare to confront Liu Bei head-on, so they asked Zhang Rang, who was close to Liu Bei, to come forward and negotiate this matter with Liu Bei, saying that the people in their faction were really not so good in terms of political ability, but there was also a reason.
Hongdu Men can't cultivate a few excellent people, and really excellent people don't want to play with them, they can only rely on a group of Chinese people to maintain their interests, for the sake of so many years of cooperation, the eunuch group hopes to reach a private cooperation with Liu Bei.
They knew that it would be difficult to stop Liu Bei, but after the policy was implemented, they were willing to exchange some economic benefits for political benefits, hoping that Liu Bei could agree.
It can be said that this wave is different from the previous promulgation of the slave restriction order, although Liu Bei did not clearly knife everyone, he still carried the banner of political correctness, but what he did was already a bit of a sideline, which caused the unanimous vigilance of the ancient literature school and the eunuch group.
They became vigilant and began to worry about whether Liu Bei would do anything to harm their interests, and Liu Bei expected this vigilance, so he didn't feel strange.
Liu Bei believes that compared with the overt opposition of the ancient literature school, the secret opposition of the eunuch group is also a kind of temptation, and Liu Bei dislikes this temptation very much.
After he killed those big eunuchs, the eunuch group was subdued by him, but when the core interests were threatened, no matter how afraid of Liu Bei, they still had to stand up and show their attitude.
If Liu Bei wanted them to die, they would never sit idly by.
They just want Liu Bei to understand this truth.
So Zhang Rang's meaning is very clear.
"If you really promote this policy and strictly enforce it, it will be a big threat to the eunuchs, they beg you, don't do this, or open up to them, they can exchange what you want, as long as they can afford it."
Liu Bei looked at Zhang Rang, looked at it for a while, and then smiled.
"Are you talking to me from Lao Zhang's standpoint, or are you talking to me from the standpoint of Zhang Rang, the Zhongchang servant?"
"Huh?"
Zhang Rang was stunned for a moment, and then realized the meaning of Liu Bei's words.
What Liu Bei needs to determine is that at present, Zhang Rang is from the standpoint of his friend to communicate with him about this matter, or from the standpoint of a eunuch to negotiate this matter with him.
This may determine Liu Bei's attitude towards him, as well as the specific asking price.
This question made Zhang Rang very cautious, he had considered the problem as a eunuch before, and felt that Liu Bei might have to do something terrible, and he was instinctively a little worried.
But Liu Bei's current words made him realize that maybe his perspective on the problem was a bit wrong.
It may make more sense not to think about the problem as a eunuch, but simply as Liu Bei's allies.
What Liu Bei needed was not a eunuch, but ...... Friend.
He thought about it and came to a conclusion.
"I'm talking to you from Lao Zhang's standpoint."
So Liu Bei nodded.
"In this case, to Lao Zhang's words, my answer is that you'd better not get involved in this matter, jump out, don't do anything, or try your best to persuade some people you look at not to go against me, and you don't care about other people."
Liu Bei stepped forward with a smile and patted Zhang Rang's shoulder: "Lao Zhang, I will give you a word, it is very suitable to use here, give up the plot of helping others, and respect the fate of others." ”
