Chapter 62 The Imperial Examination System
Seeing Zhou Jing's expression, Zhou Weiyang actually knew that Zhou Jing had feelings for his brother Wang. Zhou Jing has been taking care of Brother Wang's daily life since she was a child, and the two grew up together. Although Zhou Jing is five years older than Brother Wang, she has long had feelings for Brother Wang. Although I don't quite understand how this feeling was born, it's just that this thing is true.
It's just that judging from the current situation, Brother Wang doesn't seem to know Zhou Jing's feelings for him. Or do you know but pretend not to know? But this kind of thing can only be mentioned a little bit, and the real decision is still in the hands of Brother Wang.
"Alright, alright. Don't talk about that. You still want to tell me what you should do??" Seeing that Brother Wang was going to explain to Zhou Jing again, Zhou Weiyang hurriedly changed the topic. Otherwise, waiting for the character of Brother Wang, a straight man of steel, Zhou Jing is afraid that she will have no chance at all, as for the one called Wu Yishu, no matter how you say it, she is an outsider. I still have to try to maintain Zhou Jing.
Zhou Shaoan was about to turn his head and explain to Zhou Jing that he just regarded her as a sister. was just interrupted by Zhou Weiyang, and then stopped again. The top priority is to explain clearly to Xiaomei as soon as possible and let her implement it as soon as possible, otherwise the more it drags on for a day, the worse the situation will be for herself and others.
Zhou Shaoan looked at his imperial sister with a curious look on his face, and thought for a while. Only then did he open his mouth and ask: "Are the current court officials still appointing people recommended by various ministers or forces?"
Zhou Weiyang felt that the question asked by Brother Wang was very strange, since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the appointment of officials has not always been like this? Why does Brother Wang still ask such a common-sense question?
It's just that although I think so in my heart, my mind is spinning rapidly. Brother Wang shouldn't make this kind of common-sense mistake, this kind of common sense that even a random person pulled over from the street knows, he must know.
Although there are many drawbacks to this method, there is no better way to do it at present. You can only continue to pinch your nose and use those recommended by the big family forces, otherwise the entire imperial court will be paralyzed in an instant. So what does he mean by that? I wonder he has a better way to replace this law. Thinking of this, Zhou Weiyang's spirit was shocked, and he directly stepped forward and hugged Brother Wang's arm on his chest, and asked softly: "Brother Wang, don't sell Guanzi, do you have a way? If you have a way, you can say it directly." ”
Feeling the strange feeling coming from his arm, Zhou Shao'an silently recited a word of Amitabha Buddha in his heart, and then directly pulled out his arm from Zhou Weiyang's arms. Stretched out his left hand and pressed the girl who was about to pounce. Hurriedly said, "Stop, stop." I say, I say. You're standing. How old are you and don't pay attention to your image?"
Zhou Weiyang stopped struggling when he heard Brother Wang want to say, and listened attentively.
Seeing the girl's certification and listening, Zhou Shaoan opened his mouth and concluded: "There are too many drawbacks in this method now. Only those who are recommended by the ministers can become officials, and in the long run, I am afraid that another old thief of Yan Songyuan will be born, what should you do when the time comes?
Before Zhou Shao'an finished speaking, he heard Zhou Jing behind him shouting: "They dare? Your Majesty single-handedly promoted them, if they don't think about how to be grateful, how can they do something that endangers the imperial court?"
Zhou Shaoan turned his head, not knowing if it was his own delusion. I always feel that Zhou Jing looks at her differently. I opened my eyes again and confirmed. The expression on Zhou Jing's face was still the same as before.
Zhou Shaoan smiled lightly, and told Huo Yi what he planned to do this time as an undercover agent of the Yuyang faction, and how he was killed by himself in the end. Zhou Jing was ashamed, knelt down on one knee again, and pleaded guilty to Zhou Weiyang: "Weichen was negligent and put an undercover agent in the shadow guard without knowing it." Please punish Your Majesty. ”
Zhou Weiyang actually knows that relying on just one Zhou Jing almost supports all the rights he can control. There are too many things to do, it is inevitable that there will be negligence, and besides, this Huo Yi has been undercover since a few years ago when the emperor was still alive, no wonder Zhou Jing will not notice.
"Get up, although you are responsible for this matter, it is not big, no one could have thought that Yu Yangzi was so bold. As early as when his father was still alive, he dared to send undercover agents to infiltrate the palace. Zhou Weiyang helped Zhou Jing up and said.
Seeing that the two daughters in front of him were quiet and looked at themselves, Zhou Shaoan was no longer entangled, and said directly to the point: "There is only one way to solve this situation." Open the imperial examination system. Let the people of the whole country be in power, as long as they are able. ”
"Open the imperial examination system?" Zhou Weiyang and Zhou Jing listened to Zhou Shaoan's suggestion, and they both looked at each other blankly.
"Yes, open the imperial examination system. Zhou Shaoan confirmed again.
After seeing Brother Wang's reconfirmation, Zhou Weiyang asked, "What is the imperial examination? How to open it, and what is the use?"
"Stop, stop. Don't worry, listen to me explain to you slowly. Zhou Shaoan listened to a series of questions spit out of Zhou Weiyang's mouth in an instant, and hurriedly waved his hand to stop it.
"Now the situation in the imperial court is that most of the officials are selected from the children of high-ranking elites in various places. The children of the powerful can be officials, regardless of their merits. Many people from humble backgrounds who have real talents and real learning cannot serve as officials. In the long run, there will be a force, a powerful minister. In the end, the situation of Yan Songyuan's old thief was formed. Seeing Zhou Weiyang nodding in agreement with his own point of view, Zhou Shaoan continued: "And the imperial examination system I am talking about is to break this way of selecting officials. Let some of the capable talents in the middle and lower strata of society enter the upper strata of society through the assessment and get the opportunity to display their talents. In this way, these people do not have the imprint of various factions, they will all be loyal to the emperor, and these people are the power to turn the tables on us. ”
Zhou Weiyang listened to Brother Wang's words, as if he had been empowered, and suddenly came to his senses. said excitedly: "Brother Wang is really amazing, but what should we test?"
Zhou Shaoan felt that as soon as he came back, this sister was not very smart. In desperation, he could only continue to answer: "Isn't this simple? Of course, the content of the two exams is separated." The document assesses the ability to manage the people. As for martial arts, of course, it is a test of cultivation ability. Recruit loose practices that can teach the people to practice. ”
"Teach the people to cultivate?" Zhou Weiyang was completely stunned by Brother Wang's words, and asked in shock.
"Not bad, the current situation. If we want to move back into the situation, we can only let all the people cultivate. When the time comes, you will be able to successfully continue your cultivation. If you don't succeed in cultivating, you can strengthen your body. After all, there is no need for spirit stones in the early stage of cultivation now, and we only need to pay for the popularization of one more cultivation method. Only when officials are selected from among the people and they feel part of the country will the people support you at all times. After speaking, he looked at the hundred officials under the mountain again, although the distance was too far to see clearly. It's just that Zhou Shaoan still sneered, it's time for these petty officials gathered by various sects to clean them out.
Just as the Zhou brothers and sisters were discussing countermeasures, in the conference room of the headquarters of the Jingzhou Wanxian League, everyone was staring at Zhang Xuansu, waiting for him to speak. Including Xuanqing Zhenren and Tianyun Dao people, the two of them always felt that this Zhang Xuansu of the Shangqing Sect was mysterious, so that neither of them could see through him. I hope that this time I can take the opportunity to test the strength of the Shangqing Sect.
Zhang Xuansu saw that everyone's eyes seemed to be looking at him, so he came back to his senses and clasped his fists with both hands and said to his colleagues: "I have nothing to say." Only one sentence. ”
Xiao Tianfang said again: "What do you say?"
Looking at this anxious man, Zhang Xuansu smiled softly and said, "Brother Xiao, don't worry, I only have one request for this battle, that is, Yuyangzi's life, I will take it." ”
Everyone was shocked when they heard this, Yuyangzi, as a master of Yuanying who has been famous in the cultivation world for more than 100 years, his strength is absolutely undoubted. Now Zhang Xuansu actually wants Yuyangzi's life with one mouth, is this self-confidence? or arrogance?
