Traveling through Great Qin: Father Qin Shihuang!

Although they don't know what the imperial examination is, it is understandable to cancel the qualification for admission without examination.

In other words, even if Daqin establishes other schools in the future, they cannot directly enroll in schools for free like other children, but must pass the assessment.

Not being allowed to join the army seems to be harmless to them, but the problem is that Daqin's conscription system has just undergone reforms this year, and now joining the army has become the way out that many people dream of.

However, the higher the remuneration for joining the army, the more difficult it is. This year, nearly one-tenth of the people who signed up for the conscription were directly rejected.

Well now, their children have not yet reached the age of conscription, but because of what happened today, they were directly disqualified from joining the army.

But at this time, the dozen or so people who were recorded were full of remorse, and even cursed out of control.

It's a pity that Li Si had no intention of being merciful to them now. He waved his big hand aside to the county magistrate who had been waiting for a long time, and directly arrested several people.

"I'll just say this once. The criteria for recruiting students at Jingshuiting Primary School is mainly to enroll students who are nearby. Others who are far away can go back as soon as possible while it's still early."

"Of course, what I said just now is not lying to you. Daqin will universally popularize nine-year compulsory education in the future, not only around Xianyang, but also in remote places such as Bashu, Xiangjun, and Guilin. Schools will also be opened. Please go back and be patient. Just wait."

After what happened just now, no one dared to challenge Zhao Che's majesty anymore.

"Go ahead and register. Dad should be here soon. After the registration is over, let them pack up and go to school in three days."

Zhao Che casually explained to Yuhuatian and the others, and left with Li Si.

As soon as he returned to the mansion, Ying Zheng's carriage came on the back foot.

"Che'er, what's the status of the school's registration today? Has something happened?"

Ying Zheng came in and asked with a smile.

"Your Majesty, there are so many applicants today, chaos is unavoidable."

Li Si sighed, and then told what happened just now, as well as how Zhao Che dealt with it.

"You bastard, Cheerzhai has a kind heart and is willing to give them a chance to let their children learn to read and write. These people are ungrateful and dare to incite people's hearts to threaten Cheer."

After the reprimand, Ying Zheng certainly did not forget to praise Zhao Che.

"Che'er, you are right. These people should be punished. If the parents are like this, how can they raise any good children? If these people learn knowledge, they will not know whether it will be a blessing or a curse in the future. "

Although Yingzheng's words are suspected of being a one-shot death, it is undeniable that family education still has a lot to do with a child's growth trajectory.

The reason why the ancient gentry were superior is because they attached great importance to family education and cultivated their children since childhood.

And the children they teach, although it is inevitable that there will be dudes and the like, but most of them who can be regarded as successors are very excellent existences.

Otherwise, it is impossible for the gentry to inherit it for so long.

Survival of the fittest, the more outstanding people are, the more resources they can afford. This is not fair, but it is the most reasonable way.

"By the way, Cher, what is the imperial examination you're talking about?"

After Ying Zheng sighed, he also remembered that in Zhao Che's instructions to Li Si, there was a sentence of not being allowed to take the imperial examination as a punishment.

"The imperial examination is actually an examination, and it is an assessment system established for the court to cultivate and select outstanding talents."

"Naturally, a large part of the talents cultivated by our schools are sent to the imperial court to serve as officials. The imperial examination is to select these talents who are suitable to become officials."

……

"So that's it, this imperial examination just happens to match up with the school!"

Ying Zheng said a little excitedly.

Daqin is currently short of talents. The introduction of the imperial examination system is undoubtedly the best way to replenish talents for Daqin's court.

In this way, not allowing those people to take the imperial examination is indeed a very severe punishment, which is tantamount to directly cutting off their path to official career.

I don't know if those people know the meaning of the imperial examination, will they regret it and want to turn against their own father?
"Father, I came here this time to discuss the school. How is your preparation going?"

Zhao Che didn't gossip too much on this matter, and directly asked the real question.

"You also know that there are so many Zhuangzi around Xianyang, and the number of schools to be built is not small. It is estimated that it will not be done well in a while, and the most important thing is that there are no teachers to teach knowledge."

Ying Zheng spread his hands, he also wanted to popularize the nine-year compulsory education as soon as possible.

But in practice, I realized that the difficulty was far beyond my imagination.

"How about gathering people from various schools of thought as the teachers of the school?"

"I'm afraid that the knowledge of various schools of thought is not enough. For example, the science you mentioned, in the whole world, you are the only one who knows it."

Ying Zheng shook his head. What he wanted to cultivate was a new type of talent like Zhao Che, rather than those Confucian scholars who could only study sage's words hard.

"Father, there is no high or low in learning, and the academic thoughts of various schools of thought also have merits, such as the benevolence, righteousness and integrity of Confucianism, and the rule of inaction in Taoism. Go on, so the inheritance of the various schools of thought cannot be broken."

"Then what about the science you're talking about? Could it be that this knowledge is not as good as the schools of thought?"

"of course not."

Zhao Che shook his head.

"As I said, learning is not high or low. Science is also a kind of learning, but it is not suitable for everyone to learn. Everyone has something that everyone is good at, and no matter what kind of learning, it always requires certain knowledge. accumulated."

"The main purpose of the popularization of the nine-year compulsory education is to enlighten the mind, so that the leaders of the Qin Dynasty can learn to read and write, eliminate illiteracy, and have a certain knowledge base."

"Science is the same as Confucianism and law. It is also a subject that can be studied and studied in depth after having a knowledge base. Therefore, after nine years of compulsory education, I will open high schools and universities!"

……

Ying Zheng stroked his beard and thought for a while, then he understood what Zhao Che meant.

Nine-year compulsory education, in fact, what is learned is not really advanced knowledge, but just a means of eliminating illiteracy and enlightening wisdom.

At the same time, the nine-year compulsory education is also a screening process. Only those who are outstanding enough can be promoted to higher-level schools and learn more advanced knowledge.

"I understand when you say that. If it's just for literacy and enlightenment, apprentices from hundreds of schools are enough."

"Since that's the case, I'll leave this matter to my father. Jingshuiting Primary School can only enroll so many students at the moment. As for schools in other places, we can only postpone the start of school until the second half of the year."

Zhao Che spread his hands, there was no other way.

After all, Jingshuiting Primary School was prepared by himself, and the construction had already been completed, and he was just waiting for the start of school.
