Datang: Get a god-level selection system at the beginning

Finally in the afternoon the court meeting continued, but before Master Cui Ren left his shift, Li Shimin announced several major events that shocked the court and the public.

First, reform the imperial examination system.

Li Shimin announced that after the county examination, the township examination and the spring examination in Kyoto, there will be another palace examination.

It is to call together the selected tribute scholars and let the emperor write the questions himself.

There are three people from the first class in the palace examination, and they are divided into champion, second place and Tanhua—these three people can directly enter the soon-to-be-established Hanlin Academy as the editor of the sixth rank;

The second-class Jinshi will conduct a museum selection, and the top ten can be admitted to the Imperial Academy for review and other seven-rank official positions.

As for the top three Jinshi, they are assigned to various ministries and localities to serve as officials.

Second, set up the Hanlin Academy, which is directly under the Ministry of Rites, but the Staff Office is responsible for daily management.Newly promoted Jinshi were selected to be filled into the Hanlin Academy as a place for them to observe politics.

The responsibility of the Hanlin Academy is to draft confidential edicts, and it is also responsible for compiling books and writing history, drafting edicts, reading for royal family members, and serving as imperial examination examiners.

Third, from now on, only Hanlin can enter the staff office and the three provinces of Zhongshu, Menxia, ​​and Shangshu.

These few rules made all civil and military officials dizzy immediately.

It's no wonder they can't bear it, it's because the amount of information in these new policies is too great.

The first new policy, the addition of the palace examination, seems to be nothing on the surface, but a discerning person can tell at a glance that it is an attempt to win all the powerful people under his command.

As the author of the questions, the emperor was also personally responsible for reviewing the papers and deciding the rankings, which was like a mentor to those Jinshi.

Now it is not the Eastern Jin Dynasty where "the king and the horse share the world", nor is it the former Sui Dynasty where the wife ran away from home and could only chop bamboo to vent her anger.

If the title of disciple of the emperor is spoken, it is simply not too prestige, it is so much better than being a chess piece for a certain family.

As for the second new policy, the Imperial Academy was established, and new subjects were selected to enter the Imperial Academy to hold various official positions.

This seems to be just a useless institution, which has a great overlap with the powers of the three provinces, but the responsibilities of the Hanlin are destined to not be underestimated.

Editing books and writing history is a great opportunity to leave a name in history. Countless people want to squeeze in after breaking their heads. It is of unparalleled help to personal career and clear hope;
Needless to say, drafting edicts and the like, fools know the importance;
Reading for the members of the royal family, reading and writing with the princes, the future will naturally be treated as a confidant;

Serving as an imperial examination examiner is taking food from the mouths of aristocratic families, it is simply digging their roots!

As for the third new policy, it once again elevates the status of the new imperial examination infinitely-do you want to be a prime minister?

Come to the Imperial Examination, here is everything you want.

What, you failed the imperial examination?
You are a son of a powerful family, you can only rely on recommendations?

Shabi, go do odd jobs!
An official who doesn't want to be a prime minister is not a good official. It is the lifelong dream of every official to be a prime minister. If you want to achieve this now, you can only go to the Hanlin first.

As for how to be an Hanlin, it is very simple, just pass the imperial examination.

In this way, the ascending channel that the clansmen had mastered for hundreds of years was almost taken back, and it was firmly in the hands of the emperor.

Master Cui Ren and other members of the royal family were stunned by these three new policies. For a while, they didn't know whether they should stand up for their distant relative Qinghe Cui, or plan for the future of their own family.

All of a sudden, the originally strong clan alliance was broken, so that their strength could not be concentrated.

Gritting his teeth, Cui Renshi came out of the class and said: "Your Majesty, these three new policies are too radical, and they may cause dissatisfaction among scholars all over the world."

"Oh? Is it the dissatisfaction of the scholars in the world, or the dissatisfaction of your Cui family?"

A strange voice sounded, Cui Renshi saw that it was indeed the Qin King Li Wenbin who killed a thousand swords.

"His Royal Highness Qin Wang, what do you mean by this? As a servant in the palace, I naturally have the responsibility to check and make up for omissions. Is Your Highness trying to block the way of speech and deceive His Majesty?"

"Heh, the hat is so tight that I dare not speak."

"You shut up, we're speaking out—is that so?"

"Ha ha!"

Li Wenbin's eccentric look made many military officers laugh, and even Li Shimin couldn't help laughing.

Wei Zheng twitched the corner of his mouth: "His Royal Highness Qin Wang, please don't be rude in front of Your Majesty."

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty, please forgive me."

Li Shimin waved his hand, expressing that he didn't mind—in fact, he was quite happy in his heart, and he wanted to scold these aristocratic bastards for a long time.

"Lord Cui, you haven't answered my question. Whether it's your Cui family and other families who are dissatisfied, or the scholars in the world, please clarify."

"This... is the dissatisfaction of the scholars in the world."

"Oh? Master Cui is clairvoyant or has a good ear? How do you know that it will make the world dissatisfied? Have you investigated it? How many people are dissatisfied and how many people are satisfied?"

To put it bluntly, Li Wenbin's words were nonsense, but for the disciples of the aristocratic family, it was like beating the master to death.

Master Cui Ren has never seen such a debate before, and his lips trembled in anger for a moment:

"You, you, you...Zhu Zi'an dare to be so rude? You are simply not a son of man!"

Then, Cui Renshi was taken down by Li Shimin's orders: You said my son is not a human being, so what is my father?You are clearly cursing the emperor, which is disrespectful.

Seeing that you are also unintentional, you will be removed from all official positions, demoted to a commoner, and go back to your hometown in Boling to farm.

Then Cui Renshi was stripped of his official uniform on the spot and thrown out of Xiande Hall.

Cheng Yaojin and Qin Qiong looked at each other and exchanged glances: The emperor's moves are amazing.

Not only did they lightly expose the Qinghe Cui family's extermination, they dug up the roots of the aristocratic family, and by the way, even the military officer was restricted.

During the Tang Dynasty, the distinction between civil and military was generally not strict, and it was fine to be a civil official or a military officer, depending on how the emperor wanted to use it.

For example, Zhang Liang, who was born as a military general, is now the governor of Luozhou, and was later appointed as the governor and minister of the Ministry of Industry in history.

This is the origin of going out and entering the picture, but until today, even if there is no such thing anymore.

A civil servant is a civil servant, and a military officer is a military officer.

When you become a military officer, it is basically over when you become a general-the Taiwei is almost a vacant position at this time, and it is only used as a vain title for veterans.

If you think about it as in the past, it is absolutely impossible to be a prime minister when you have enough generals. Academy, even if it is half done.

But if you really enter the Hanlin Academy, basically your whole life will be spent.

Great, really great!
