The Three Kingdoms

That's why today's one came out.

"Ju Xiaolian is really selfish. After all, not everyone can recommend an outstanding talent, but it is the only feasible strategy now!"

Cai Yong frowned: "How to select officials has always been a headache. It's not easy to be fair and just!"

"Talent is divided into high and low, without comparison, there is no outstanding talent!"

Sun Quan pointed to the ten talents present, and said calmly: "It's like this, only the selected ones are fair, isn't it?"

"You want to take a national exam?" Cai Yong's eyes lit up slightly: "It's a good idea to select talents and use them for officials!"

"That's right!" Sun Quan nodded. (To be continued.)

The next day.

The royal palace, the royal study.

Sun Quan looked a little dignified, sitting cross-legged on the side of the book table, and standing in front of him were the first assistant of the cabinet Zhang Zhao, the second assistant Zhu Zhi, Kuai Liang, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials Gu Yong, and the director of the Education Department Cai Yong.

"I only hope that the first imperial examination will be held this year."

Sun Quan glanced at several people with his amber eyes, and said in a deep voice: "The so-called imperial examinations are to open subjects to select scholars. Under fair and just circumstances, by means of the big exams, we select talents and use them to serve the court of the state of Wu. Send new officials seedlings!"

"Acquisition to obtain a doctor?"

Zhang Zhao was still carefully studying every detailed strategy of the imperial examination. Ju Xiaolian had maintained the system of selecting officials for hundreds of years. Once it was overthrown, he would remain silent.

He raised his head and looked carefully at Sun Quan's resolute face. This young monarch really should not be underestimated. One after another, he never knew what he was thinking.

Serving Sun Jian back then, he had never been so tired.

"Is there a problem?" Sun Quan looked at Zhang Zhao, the chief assistant of the cabinet. At that time, in the Wu Kingdom, one person was less than ten thousand.

"Agreed to give it a try!"

Zhang Zhao pondered for a while, carefully read every policy of the imperial examination, and then agreed.

A few years ago, he would have objected. After all, at that time, there were not many scholars in total, and it was unknown how many people came to take the exam.

You can give it a try now. In today's world, the academies in Wu Kingdom are at their peak, not to mention Jiangdong Academy and Jinling Academy, these two high-level institutions of higher learning.Others, Lumenshan Academy, Jiaozhou Academy.Liaodong Academy, all of them are colleges with talents.

Coupled with the academies policy promoted by the Department of Education this year, an academy of higher learning will be established in every county to popularize scholars among the common people.

The imperial examination is not necessarily a good official election system.

"Your Majesty, reforming the selection system of officials so hastily will inevitably overthrow the previous system of promoting filial piety and honesty. Many Confucian scholars hold the number of filial piety and honesty in their hands, will it..."

Kuai Liang did not continue.But that meaning was understood by everyone present.

There are not many people who can escape the word right. The only right in the hands of those scholars and Confucian scholars who are not usually in the temple is to hold the quota of filial piety.

Suddenly no more.Naturally, there will be some dissatisfaction.

Scholars are not easy to mess with, especially those who are famous for their studies. Just look at Sun Quan today. He is a majestic King of Wu.

It seems that a Confucian of the level of Cai Yong and Zheng Xuan can be twisted and beaten by anyone. After the left cheek is beaten, he will obediently stick his right cheek to it.

These great scholars.That one doesn't have disciples all over the world. If they make a complete disturbance, it will be three points more violent than the storm of the previous reform.

"It depends on the ability of Chief Cai Si!"

Sun Quan narrowed his eyes slightly.Looking at his old father-in-law, he said with a smile.

Hearing these words, several people in the imperial study immediately looked at Cai Yong with both eyes.

"Weichen suddenly understood that the king worked so hard to lure Weichen out of Jiangdong Academy with the big plan of the Education Department, so it was for today's departure!"

Cai Yong's complexion is not very good-looking.He almost didn't blow his beard and stare.

Calculated again!

This move is to return to the other body in the same way.The pure stove green used by Sun Quan.

Sun Quan personally reformed the imperial examination system, which was to oppose all the Confucian scholars and the entire scholarly society.

However, Cai Yong is a great Confucian, and he is also the top Confucian in the Wu Kingdom. If he is a student of the world, who can compare with him? It's just a dispute between scholars.

"There is one step, look at three steps, and you can't accept it!"

Zhang Zhao and the others sighed in their hearts, at the beginning they didn't understand why Sun Quan, who had always been more filial, dragged the elderly Cai Yong into the muddy waters of the court.

It turned out to be for such a day.

Indeed, with Cai Yong's full support, even if scholars have opinions, they can only debate with Cai Yong. Isn't it courting death to argue with such a great Confucian as Cai Yong?

"Ha ha!"

Sun Quan smiled sheepishly: "As the saying goes, those who are capable are more likely to be able to do so. Doesn't father want to see the implementation of the imperial examination policy?"

"This minister naturally wants to see the implementation of the imperial examination system, open a subject to select scholars, treat everyone equally, and there is no distinction between poor and noble families, which is a rare ideal in the mind of the minister, but the king uses this account of the minister, and the minister's heart Remember it!"

If it weren't for the presence of so many ministers, the well-read poems and books, Cai Yong, who was a bit stubborn about etiquette, had to save some face for the king Sun Quan, he would have turned his face and lost his temper, and would never have gritted his teeth like what the humble minister said.

Lao Taishan competed with his son-in-law, and the few giants in the cabinet couldn't control it. Zhang Zhao and the others could only stand aside and watch.

"Your Majesty, it's not impossible to take the imperial examination, but this year, the provincial and general examinations must be given a break!"

After a while, Gu Yong said in a deep voice: "At present, there are not so many scholars in the countryside!"

The imperial examination policy proposed by Sun Quan is based on the well-developed imperial examination system in the Ming Dynasty.

However, although there are quite a few scholars now, compared to the huge territory of Wu State, it is not obvious, and it is still in a stage of rare animals.

The palace examination is fine, but the township examination, the general examination, is a bit immature.

"Gu also thought about it!"

Sun Quan nodded and said: "The first imperial examination held this year is only a transition after all, and it is still necessary to save face for those old people who have studied all their lives, so this year's imperial examination system is combined with the filial piety system. For a moment, the provincial examination will be replaced by the promotion of filial piety and honesty, and the local Confucianists will be elected to go to Beijing for the examination, but the palace examination must be held in Jinling City, open and fair, and no favoritism is allowed!"

"promise!"

All the ministers breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.Sun Quan was able to make a transition period, which was already a step back.Coupled with Cai Yong's influence, the possibility of implementing this policy has reached [-]%.

"The first imperial examination, Zhang Zhao, you have to take it seriously!" Sun Quan said with narrowed eyes.

"Wei Chen understands!"
