Chapter 10: Advice

As a second generation of emperors, it is his dream to be an idle prince. But Li Shen knew that he wanted to live the ideal life in his heart. There will definitely be some difficulties. First of all, there are five surnames, seven Wangguan, and eight families. Throughout the ages, the foundation of a good life has been money. Li Shen wanted to live a luxurious life, and he couldn't support it by relying on the little taxes and money in the fiefdom alone. So Li Shen wants to make money in business.

One of the reasons for the Maison's strength is that it has always been in a monopoly position in business. A steady stream of money to provide for their children. Therefore, if Li Shen wants to make money, he must break the monopoly of the family. Sooner or later, they will face up to the family. Unless Li Shen goes to the fiefdom cat. But that wasn't the life Li Shen wanted. Since sooner or later it will be matched. Then strike first.

Li Shen thought of this pair and said to Li Shimin: "Aya." Are you talking about whether you are a child of a family or not? ”

Li Shimin was stunned, but he didn't expect Li Shen to know: "Yes." In recent years, most of them are children of the family. Only a small number of them are from poor families. ”

"Aya, many of the officials who read the files are from families. There must be fraud. Li Shen said

"Of course I do. But there were many people involved in the imperial examinations. It is impossible for me to read the file in person, and it is not something that can be done by just a few officials. Every time the imperial examination is scored, dozens of people are required. Most of these dozens of people are noble officials of the family. They are united and help each other. It is difficult for poor candidates to get ahead. Li Shimin sighed.

"Ayer. What if the person who read the paper doesn't know whose paper it is? Li Shen asked

"It's easier said than done." Li Shimin asked

"It's simple. It's not enough to put the candidate's name and place of origin on paper. Li Shen said

"That's right. This method is good. If the person who reads the paper can't see it, he will avoid favoritism. Li Shen, your method is very good. Li Shimin said suddenly. He didn't think of such a simple method

Li Shen also wanted to tell the process of the later reputation. can see Li Shimin so excited. Li Shen felt that it was better to speak slowly later. His own stomach was so inky. They all fell into place. What to do in the future. Thin water flows.

-------------------------------------

Without waiting for Li Shen to finish speaking, Li Shimin left, with a smile on his face. He felt that Li Shen's vagueness would definitely give him more poor disciples. He was going to discuss the specific operation with Fang Xuanling and several important ministers in the court tomorrow. After all, Li Shen only said one way.

Li Shen sent Li Shimin and Wei Guifei back to the hall. The heart said that this father was too anxious. What's the use of just pasting names?

"Shen'er, you shouldn't have said anything about the obscurity tonight. If you give advice to your Aya in this way, if you let the family know. It will be difficult for you. Five surnames and seven hopes have been passed down for thousands of years. The power is all over the government and the opposition. If you do so, you may incur revenge from the family. Thou shalt bear with it. What's more, you're weak. "Wei Guifei is very worried about Li Shen

"Mother. I am a prince, one is prosperous, and one is lost. If my royal family is powerful. As a royal family, I will also be glorious and rich, and if my royal family is weak, few people can afford to look down on me, a prince. That's why Aya wants to deal with the Saga family. Li Shen explained. In the TV, the family was killed by Wu Zetian.

"Hey. Shen'er, how can you not know these mothers. But I was also from the Wei family. I really don't want the family to be ruined. "Wei Guifei is very melancholy. On one side is the family, and on the other side is the son.

"Mother. Don't think so much, who can say what will happen in the future. It's just a vague name. Not a threat to the Maison. Li Shen was a little speechless when he saw Wei Guifei's tangled appearance. It's just a vague name. It's like it's going to destroy the family. It's not painful at all. The mother and son chatted for a while and then rested.

After Li Shen returned to his residence. began to write down the process of obscuring the name of the imperial examination that I told Li Shimin today. This process should be from the Ming and Qing dynasties. It is often played in TV dramas.

In his previous life, Li Shen was idle and bored because of the store. I watch TV series and watch small videos all day long. Read novels. How others don't know. But Li Shen has a habit of his own. Whenever I read a novel, I always like to follow the plot. Search for something. For example, in the novel, the protagonist makes wine to make money. He would search for a way to make wine. Fantasize about how to make sake if you cross over. So he had a lot of theory in his head. Of course. None of them have been practiced. But Li Shen believes that repeated practice and sufficient manpower and material resources will definitely succeed.

-------------------------------------

Inside the Liangyi Palace. Li Shimin sat upright. There were a few people kneeling below, including Sun Wuji, the chief of Zhao Guogong, Li Xiaogong, the king of Hejian, Wei Zheng, Wei Zheng, Liang Guogong, Xuanling, Shen Guogong, Gao Shilian, Tang Jian, the head of the household, Zhang Liang, Yun Guogong and others.

"There's something I want to hear from you today." Li Shimin said

"Your Majesty doesn't know what's going on." The eldest grandson Wuji continued.

"It's been many years since the imperial examination. But there are very few children from the poor family who have taken it. If I want to live forever, I have to cancel the mustard. Let all the people of Datang participate in it. In this way, more talented people can be selected from them for the use of the imperial court. And these days it's not ideal. The people have begun to spread the word that the imperial examination is just a pretense. All lists are predetermined. said that the court was favoritism and cronyism. Everyone, talk about how to solve this matter," Li Shimin finished speaking, and looked at everyone

Everyone didn't expect Li Shimin to talk about cheating in the examination room. Actually, how could they not know. Just don't say it. Who doesn't have a few relatives yet? Everyone wants to arrange their relatives to the court to increase their right to speak.

In fact, everyone present can be regarded as a family. Or it has something to do with the family. Except that Lee Hyo-gong is a royal family. Like the eldest grandson Wuji, he is a great family himself. Fang Xuanling's wife, Lu, is also the daughter of a great family.

Seeing that the people did not speak. Li Shimin knew that these ministers were also selfish, how could they really be loyal to the monarch and patriotism, and in their hearts, the interests of the family were higher than the interests of the country. So he said directly: "You don't have to bother. I have a plan for this, you can see if it works. ”

This is a vague policy. It is to paste the candidate's name, place of origin and other information on paper. In this way, the grader does not know whose file it is. You can avoid favoritism. Li Shimin looked at everyone after telling Li Shen's vague name

Everyone nodded when they heard this. A good idea indeed.

"Your Majesty. This is indeed a good policy. It can not only avoid favoritism and fraud to the greatest extent. It can also make the people of the Tang Dynasty believe in the determination of the imperial court to win scholars. Fang Xuanling took the lead in saying

"What Fang Gong said is very true. This can also increase the confidence of those poor scholars. Let more scholars come to participate in the imperial examination. The eldest grandson Wuji followed

I don't know who came up with this policy. I think it must be a talent. At this time, Wei Zheng said everyone's questions.

"The name is after I went to the Daji Hall for dinner yesterday. Obtained when chatting with the tenth prince Li Shen. However, the specifics still need to be perfected. Li Shimin's tone was quite proud. After all, the good advice that everyone said came from their own sons.

"His Royal Highness King Shen?"

"King Shen Li Shen?"

"Oh, it turned out to be from His Royal Highness King Shen. I heard that King Shen has been smart since he was a child. Familiarize yourself with 100 books. I think it is His Majesty's godson who is well-giving. Fang Xuanling took the lead in flattering. Li Shimin, who was shot with this sycophant, was very useful.

"Where, it's just a child's words. Nothing. Specifically, it is necessary for the public to negotiate and come up with a charter. In the future, this method will be used in the imperial examination. and reported on the states and counties. Li Shimin made a decision

Everyone came out and looked at each other in the two halls. Actually, they all want to oppose it. But there is not a single justification. To put it bluntly, the battle of the literati depends on who can occupy the righteousness. Li Shimin's move is for the sake of the world's scholars, if they object. Do not let the people of heaven scold to death. When the time comes, they may not necessarily be written about in the future.

"Hey. This King Shen. Eldest Sun Wuji sighed

"His Royal Highness King Shen is indeed smart," Wei Zheng said

"Zhao Guogong, Zheng Guogong. Let's discuss the process first. Tang Jian said beside him. This matter involves some supplies, which are paid for by other households.
