King Zhou reformed slavery and reused talented slaves in an exceptional manner (no way, you nobles can't do it), this will definitely mobilize the existing interests of the nobles such as Weizi and Bigan, and lead to their resentment and strong. be opposed to!
Even Weizi and Bigan want to unite with Zhou people and other princes to overthrow the rule of King Zhou, restore the old traditions and protect their original interests!
Is it wrong for Di Xin to kill the traitor Bigan and exile Weizi?
Is it possible to pay high-ranking officials and rich, delicious food to confess these traitors? "
Chen Qilin couldn't stop at all, and continued:
"The so-called disrespect to the sky, disrespect to the gods, and slack in offering sacrifices.
In the Xia, Shang and Zhou ceremonies, sacrifices were made with living people and animals!
The reason why King Zhou of Shang was slack in offering sacrifices was because he could not bear to see living people being used for sacrifices. If such sacrifices became popular, the population would definitely decrease, and it would be too cruel!
Therefore, King Zhou finally abolished the use of slave sacrifices and broke the ancestral system, which was scolded by those nobles as slack sacrifices! "
"Disrespect the sky, disrespect the gods?
Emperor Zhou and Emperor Xin only believed: Man will conquer Heaven!
The ethereal god should not be above all living beings, let alone above the imperial power!
Therefore, Di Xin turned against God, and his descendants benefited from it, and his thoughts were not bound or imprisoned by theology...
Otherwise, the emperors of the dynasties after the Shang Dynasty have to accept the coronation of God's spokesperson in the world..."
Chen Qilin's remarks greatly changed Ying Zheng, Fusu and others' perceptions of Emperor Zhou and Emperor Xin.
It turns out that Di Xin is so great! ! !
At the same time, Ying Zheng also had new inspiration on how to solve the problem of lack of talents in Daqin.
Li Si stood up and expressed doubts:
"Sir, since King Zhou is so wise and talented, doesn't he know that Xiqi will rebel? Why was Yin and Shang still destroyed by Xiqi?"
Chapter 59: If there is any obstacle, I will raise my sword and kill a bloody road
Ying Zheng and Fusu father and son also looked at Mr.
A monarch with great talent, shrewdness and martial arts like King Zhou should not have destroyed his country!
They all want answers from Mr.
Ying Zheng and the others, after hearing what Mr. said just now, also had doubts about the so-called "historical books" handed down, and felt that what Mr. said was more in line with the truth!
Chen Qilin didn't answer right away, he just said a lot of Can Lianhua, and his mouth was a little dry.
He sat down on the leather sofa, picked up the coffee, took a sip, and smoked a few more cigars before he said leisurely:
"The Yin and Shang hierarchies are strict, and only the nobles can hold office, and no matter how talented the commoners and pariahs are, no matter how talented they are, they will never be able to hold office.
However, Emperor Zhou, Emperor Xin, had no one to use due to the corruption of the nobles. Not only did he use a lot of low-level pariahs, but he also used slaves and criminals.
This naturally aroused fierce opposition from the entire noble class, and it was inevitably overthrown in the end!
Such is the sorrow of reformers!
Just like Shang Yang, who made immortal contributions to the reform of the Qin country, laid the foundation for Qin to unify the six countries, but ended up being cracked by a car!
Of course, Di Xin was overthrown and finally set himself on fire. The above is just one of the reasons! "
Ying Zheng fell into contemplation, how difficult it is for reformers!
Li Si asked again:
"Sir, Di Xin can completely destroy Xiqi's internal stability first, and then go to attack the south, so it won't destroy the country! Why did Di Xin choose to attack the south first?"
Chen Qilin looked at Ying Zheng and said:
"Good question, this is also the second reason why Di Xin destroyed the country!
At the end of the Yin and Shang Dynasties, it was in the Little Ice Age. The temperature dropped sharply, the northern land became colder and colder, food and prey dropped sharply, and many people starved to death.
In order to snatch food for the people to survive, King Zhou launched a war against the south, which had more fertile land and more prey and food.
Of course, Di Xin could also choose to fight against the outside world and settle down first, and destroy Xiqi first, which would be safer.
But time waits for no one. The territory where Yin and Shang are located is getting colder and colder, more and more food is scarce, and more and more people are dying of starvation.
If Emperor Xinzhen spent a lot of troops to destroy Xiqi, Yin Shang would basically no longer be able to defeat the southern tribes.
His people can only starve to death in large numbers...even the inheritance of Yanhuang will be cut off!
In order to allow more people to live, Di Xin resolutely chose to attack the south first!
Even if this is done, the Yin and Shang rule may be overthrown!
But Di Xin still chose this way. His belief is:
Yin and Shang may perish, but the descendants of Yan and Huang and the inheritance of China cannot be broken!
In the end, all the people betrayed their relatives and left. The nobles such as Jifa, Jiang Ziya, Weizi, and other nobles, took advantage of Di Xin to fight for the people to survive, and successfully destroyed Yin and Shang from the inside, forcing Di Xin to set himself on fire!
After the Western Zhou Dynasty replaced Yin and Shang, he spared no effort to blacken Emperor Xin, making him wear the hat of a foolish tyrant for thousands of years..."
"Despicable villains Ji Fa, Jiang Ziya, Weizi, hateful!!!" Ying Zheng slammed his fist on the sofa.
What the Emperor hates most is betrayal!
Fusu and Li Si were also quite touched!
Chen Qilin said nothing, stood up and walked to the window, smoking a cigar.
After a while, the emotions of Ying Zheng and others stabilized.
"Sir, I want to build a temple for Emperor Xin and prove it! I want to learn from King Zhou, reform the system of selecting officials, tap talents without sticking to one pattern, and use talents!"
Ying Zheng stood up abruptly and said powerfully.
Chen Qilin said: "Your Majesty, doing this is a public anger and will make many people object, especially Confucianism, aristocratic families, wealthy families, etc. Have you thought about it?"
Ying Zheng rehabilitates King Zhou by setting up a temple, that is to prove that Confucian sages of Confucian sages criticized King Zhou before are wrong!
How can this be called Confucianism?
How could a saint be wrong?
Those sour Confucians must be desperately opposed!
Ying Zheng rehabilitated King Zhou, and the major wealthy and aristocratic families were unwilling.
A large number of ordinary poor families will come in and share this cake with them!
The status of aristocratic families and wealthy families is unstable!
"Sir, I have made up my mind!"
Ying Zheng had a chilling look on his face, and said, "I don't believe it, I want to reform the election system, who else can stop it? If there are thousands of enemies blocking the road of reform, I will kill him with a sword and kill him in a sea of blood. Pave a bloody path for reform!!!"
Ying Zheng once again showed the domineering power of an emperor through the ages!
"Royal father, my son and minister will work with you to advance the reform of the electoral system!" Fusu stood up and said solemnly.
"Your Majesty, I would like to be a pawn in your reform of the electoral system, charge into battle, and die!" Li Si said with a cold expression on his face.
"Okay, very good!" Ying Zheng laughed boldly.
Chen Qilin also admires Ying Zheng, who has always done what he says he does. As long as he is determined to do what he is determined to do, no matter how difficult it is, even if he encounters a life-and-death crisis, he will never give up.
For example, when the six countries were unified, Ying Zheng was assassinated many times, but he still did not change his original intention!
Chen Qilin said: "Since Your Majesty is determined to do this, then I will give you some suggestions on reforming the election system!"
"Sir, please speak, I am all ears!" Ying Zheng said humbly.
Chen Qilin rolled his eyes and said leisurely: "Your Majesty, your selection officials can use the imperial examination system!"
"The imperial examination system?" Ying Zheng was quite curious when he heard this word for the first time.
The same goes for Fusu and Li Si.
Chen Qilin said: "Yes, the imperial examination system!"
"Sir, tell me in detail!" Ying Zheng was very interested.
Chen Qilin looked at the sky, it was time for dinner.
"Your Majesty, it's time for dinner, how about we chat while eating?" he said.
"I, but it's disrespectful!" Ying Zheng said.
Fusu and Li Si naturally had no opinion.
When Chen Qilin collected Ying Zheng's money and went to the backyard, he explained to Wang Ying by the way and asked her to cook more meals.
Soon, a table of delicious dishes prepared by Wang Ying was brought to the dinner table, including Dongpo Pork, West Lake Vinegar Fish, and Grilled Lamb Chops.
Chen Qilin greeted everyone to sit down and chat while eating.
"The imperial examination system was the fairest form of talent selection that feudal dynasties could take. It expanded the social dimension of feudal dynasties' introduction of talent, and absorbed a large number of middle- and lower-class talents into the ruling class..."
"Subjects include Xiucai, Jinshi, Mingfa (law), Mingzi, Mingsuan (math) and other subjects. The content of the test is sometimes policy, scriptures, essays..."
"The imperial examination is divided into grades, there are five grades of children's examination, hospital examination, rural examination, general examination, and palace examination..."
When Chen Qilin was eating, he roughly told Ying Zheng, Fu Su, and Li Si about the main content of the imperial examination that he knew,
He has pointed out the direction to Ying Zheng, pointed out the key points, and provided the imperial examination system with great reference value!
As for the specific details of how to reform the official selection system in the Qin Dynasty in the end, Yingzheng, Fusu, Li Si and others will figure it out slowly!
Ying Zheng, Fu Su and others listened to Chen Qilin's words and couldn't help but be amazed and had a huge harvest.
"Many thanks for your guidance, if the imperial examination system is implemented in Daqin, my talent problem will be solved!"
Finally, Ying Zheng clasped his fists and saluted to Chen Qilin.
After speaking, Ying Zheng was about to bring Fu Su and Li Si to the palace to discuss the imperial examination system overnight.
"Your Majesty, what are you anxious about, I still have business related to the imperial examination system, and I want to cooperate with you!" Chen Qilin said.
Chapter 60: The Fat Sheep Delivered to the Door
Ying Zheng was slightly stunned!
I use the imperial examination system to select talents for the imperial court, sir, do you also want to do business?
Selecting talents for the court is a very serious matter!
Do you want me to be like those foolish monarchs, selling officials and rank? !
Ying Zheng was slightly displeased!
This gentleman is good in everything, but... he is too greedy for money!
However, Mr. Ying Zheng helped Ying Zheng a lot. Although he was slightly unhappy, he didn't show it on his face!
Ying Zheng took a deep breath and said, "Sir, please speak!"
Chen Qilin took out a stack of paper and a movable type printing plate from the cabinet, shook it in front of Ying Zheng and said, "Your Majesty, the business I want to cooperate with you is exactly these two things!"
"What is this thing that is as white as jade and as thin as a cicada's wings? What is this thing inlaid with small pieces of wood?" Ying Zheng asked in confusion.
Fusu and Li Si also watched curiously, these two things they had never seen before.
Chen Qilin smiled and said, "This is paper and a movable type printing plate, which can also be called movable type printing."
paper?
Typography?
Ying Zheng asked, "Sir, what is the use of this paper and printing?"
For the ancients who haven't seen these things, they really don't know the usefulness. This is a blind spot of knowledge!
Chen Qilin didn't say much, but directly took a brush, spread the paper on the table, dipped the pen and ink and wrote on the paper.
Then, the paper was blown dry, and the paper was folded and so on!
The function of paper is demonstrated.
Li Si's eyes were round, and he said incredulously:
