Daqin: Invincible starting from a million proficiency

Instead, through the way of assessment, those officials who enter the court as officials are selected.

This will include scholars, farmers, craftsmen, and even people from miscellaneous families like Lu Buwei entering the court as officials.

This means that the monopoly position of the gentry will be broken, and it is even more impossible for Confucianism to dominate.

And this is the last thing Confucianism wants to see.

The influence in the hearts of the people has decreased, and they can still accept it. The control in the officialdom has weakened, which means that they have lost power. .

Without power, they are no different from ordinary people.

Even if others know that they are great Confucians, they may not be very respectful to them.

Therefore, these great Confucians couldn't help scolding.

"Imperial examination system? Why is there an imperial examination system, those mud legs, why should they be officials in the same dynasty as us?"

"This imperial examination system is aimed at us. This is the second level of revenge. He Yingzheng just wants to break our roots!!"

"It's too ruthless, Ying Zheng is too ruthless, he definitely doesn't want our Confucian disciples to be officials in the court, he wants to invite all of our Confucian disciples out of the court, and wants to take revenge on us in this way!!"

"No, no matter what you say, you can't let him implement the imperial examination system. We should all oppose the imperial examination system and prevent the implementation of the imperial examination system!!"

These great Confucians want to use the officialdom to let officials stop the implementation of the imperial examination system.

But they haven't started to do this yet, Ying Zheng has already cut the mess quickly, and half a day after the announcement, the first imperial examination will be held.

As long as you pass the imperial examination, you can enter the court as an official.

After such a decree was issued, even if those officials and nobles wanted to stop it, they couldn't stop it.

They can only let the people in the world be happy, and then share the big meal on their plate.

This is definitely a huge blow to the gentry.

Those great Confucian scholars were silent at this moment. They wanted to scold Ying Zheng, but no matter how much they scolded, it was just a mouthful.

Ying Zheng has already broken their golden body, and even shaken their foundation. Their scolding has not had much effect.

Even if they criticize Yingzheng as great scholars in the outside world, not many people are willing to listen to them.

With books and the imperial examination system, the status of great Confucians is no longer so noble, and the influence of their words has been greatly reduced.

This is just the beginning, as time goes by, the status of Confucianism will only get lower and lower.

Therefore, they are all worried, where is the way out for these Confucianists.

It's just that their sorrow didn't last long. After they had been worrying for a long time, someone suddenly spoke.

"You said, if we let Daqin's imperial examination selection become the selection of our Confucian disciples, what will happen??"

"Become the selection of Confucian disciples? This is the selection that Yingzheng came up with, just to target us. How could it become the selection of our Confucian disciples? Don't be an idiot!"

"Under normal circumstances, it is naturally impossible, but in exchange for Fengchan Taishan, we let the content of the imperial examination questions become our Confucian examination questions. In that case, everyone in the world should know what they should learn Already!"

"In this way, why worry about Confucianism not being prosperous??"

As soon as these words came out, many great Confucian scholars were shocked, and then they became ecstatic.

"Hahaha! It makes sense, what you say is too reasonable. Only if we do this, everyone in the world will know that Confucianism is what they should learn!!"

"And we can use this opportunity to reverse the situation and become the top of the hundred!!"

Chapter 281: All schools of thought are tools in his hands

These great Confucians originally wanted to wait for Ying Zheng to take the initiative to talk to them about Fengchan Taishan, and then they said that the imperial examinations were mainly Confucianism.

Unexpectedly, they waited for several days, but Ying Zheng did not come to them.

Even Ying Zheng published a second book.

Moreover, this second book is still based on Mohism.

Except for the non-attack of the Mo family, basically all of them are used.

The idea of ​​Shangxian, who does not distinguish between high and low, but only talents, has been brought to the extreme.

Festival burial (not wasting social wealth on the dead), thrift (oppose extravagance and waste, vigorously develop production), non-life (do not believe in fate, control your own destiny through hard work), non-joy (get rid of the shackles of rituals and music that divides ranks, and abolish cumbersome Although some changes have been made to concepts such as extravagant musical instruments), the proposition is very obvious.

This book, like the previous science book, has produced many copies.

The price is cheap, and it is also a book that will sell well.

However, many of the propositions and concepts in it are contrary to Confucian concepts.

Now those great Confucians are really in a hurry.

"No, Mohism must not be allowed to replace our Confucianism. Once the Great Qin is dominated by Mohism, our Confucianism will lose its dominant position, and there will never be a day to turn around!!"

"Since Ying Zheng doesn't take the initiative to find us, then he has to take the initiative to find Ying Zheng!!"

"I believe that as long as we are willing to come up with the conditions of Fengchan Taishan, Yingzheng will at most bargain with us, and there is no reason to reject us at all!!"

These great Confucians found that as time went by, they lost their initiative more and more.

Fortunately, they still have the matter of Fengchan Taishan, otherwise, they might not even have the chance to contact Yingzheng.

That night, these great Confucian scholars entered Xianyang Palace and approached Ying Zheng on their own initiative.

At this time, their attitude is obviously more respectful than before.

As soon as they saw Ying Zheng, they saluted respectfully.

"I have seen the king!!"

After discovering that Ye Tian was beside Ying Zheng, their attitude became even more respectful.

"I have seen His Highness the Crown Prince!!"

For Ye Tian, ​​these great scholars have instinctive fear.

Because Ye Tian killed too many people, not only including ordinary soldiers, but even kings.

Just like King Yan of Yan Kingdom, he died in the hands of Ye Tian.

At that time, although many people condemned Ye Tian, ​​those voices of condemnation did not have any influence on Ye Tian.

Even, he killed more people.

Many nobles of the Yan Kingdom also died at the hands of Ye Tian.

And among these great Confucians, there is the Great Confucianism of Yan State, who couldn't help backing away when they saw Ye Tian.

At the same time, they sighed secretly in their hearts, they were too unlucky to appear in front of Ying Zheng at this very moment.

However, since they have come, it is impossible to back down.

It's just that in terms of attitude, they feel that they should be more kind and tactful.

"You great Confucian scholars have come together, what is the so-called matter?"

"My lord, we are here for the matter of Fengchan Taishan!!"

"Oh? Fengchan Taishan? Do you have any different suggestions for Fengchan Taishan??"

Asking such words, these great Confucian scholars could not help but look at each other, feeling a little bad in their hearts.

Looking at Ying Zheng's appearance, it seems that he has a well-thought-out plan for Feng Chan Taishan.

He seems to have found someone else to enshrine Zen and Taishan.

If this is the case, then their Confucianism will be completely over.

Because of this, they became more cautious when speaking.

"My lord, we have done a lot of research on Fengchan Taishan!"

"Therefore, we are willing to assist the King in the whole process to complete the ceremony of Fengchan Taishan!!"

"That's it! Then thank you great Confucians for your kindness!

It's just that I don't know what are the requirements of the great Confucians who help the widow like this? ? "

As soon as the word "demand" came out, these great scholars looked at each other again.

They never expected that Ying Zheng would be so direct and ask their request straight to the point.

This made them a little hesitant to state their request directly.

However, they also understood that if they didn't speak out at this time, it would be difficult for him to bring up this matter again later.

So, they just hesitated for a moment, and then directly made their request.

"Your Majesty, we...we want to focus on our Confucianism during the Great Qin Imperial Examination, so that more students from all over the world can understand the charm of Confucianism!!"

After saying this, these great scholars looked at Ying Zheng and Ye Tian anxiously.

Although before they came, they were full of confidence.

But when they really made such a request in front of Ying Zheng, they were still worried.

They were worried that Ying Zheng would not agree to their request.

The next moment, what they were worried about happened.

"Mainly Confucianism??"

"But our imperial examination this time, intends to have all kinds of schools, and all schools need to use what they are good at!"

"We have no plan at all, which one is the main one!!"

When Ying Zheng said this, his tone was very flat, which made these great scholars feel cold inside.

Especially Ying Zheng's words surprised them even more.

"You guys go back, the matter of Fengchan Taishan has been handed over to the Yinyang family!!"

"In this world, not only you Confucianists can enshrine Zen and Mount Tai, but other people can too!!"

"As long as the widow wants someone to do this, whoever is qualified to do this!!"

"If the widows don't let them, they won't even have a chance to set foot!!"

After Yingzheng finished speaking, these great scholars didn't know how they got out of Yingzheng's palace.

It was not until they were completely out of Xianyang Palace that they regained a trace of sobriety from their trance.

"Qin King Yingzheng's ambitions are too great. He has no intention of obeying any of our families. He regards all of our schools as his tools to rule the world!!"

"He will use it when he likes it, and he won't use it if he doesn't like it!!"

"He doesn't have the slightest respect for us!!"

The previous kings were full of awe for all theories.

On the one hand, it is because these theories have great influence and many people know about them.

On the other hand, it is because these theories are helpful for governing the country, so everyone will follow them.

This kind of obedience is not only beneficial to those kings, but also a great help to the people of this school of theory.

Whether they are academics or officials in the court, they all have advantages.

But when it comes to Ying Zheng, the situation is different.

In Ying Zheng's mind, they are just tool people.

He selected some useful tools from among a hundred schools of thought, and threw away all the useless tools.

For Confucianism, which has a dominant political position, this has had a huge impact.

It was so big that many of them could hardly believe that such a thing would happen.

"It must be Ye Tian, ​​the crown prince Ye Tian must have done all of this, with Ying Zheng's heart, he would never think of integrating all the schools of thought!!"

"Especially in the past, he valued Legalism very much, and he would accept Confucianism!"

"As for the others, he basically doesn't like them!"

"How can I think now that all the families of the world are regarded as tools in my hands!!"

Chapter 282: Collecting the Book of the World

All schools of thought have become tools in the hands of Yingzheng. For Confucianism, it is no different from digging their graves.
