The imperial examination selects talents!

This policy instantly attracted the attention of everyone in the government and the public.

Although this time, what the First Emperor threw out was just a framework for selecting talents, anyone with a discerning eye could tell at a glance that this system must have been brewing for a long time.

Because although the entire system only has a framework and no details, every link is really complete.

Including, proposition system, proposition scope, examination process, confidentiality measures, marking measures, selection criteria...

All aspects are involved.

Those who are not sharp-minded will immediately think of the merit-based examination conducted by His Royal Highness the Emperor Sun some time ago, and their eyes can't help but have a different meaning.

However, everyone also understands that the First Emperor did not convene a small court meeting, but directly convened a large court meeting. What does this mean?

That is, the First Emperor may have had the intention to implement this system.

The purpose of bringing this up today is to see the attitude of the DPRK and China.

Everyone subconsciously wants to agree, but how can we agree with this policy?

This is an attack on everyone.

Nowadays, the selection of talents mainly relies on recommendation. All counties, counties, and ministers of the court have the power to recommend talents, but what if the imperial examination is implemented?

This power is gone!

What to do with your relatives and friends, what to do with your disciples, and what to do with your descendants? If in the future, the imperial court must pass an examination to select talents, and all talents must be selected——

This system is simply destroying the current employment rules!

To break the rules is to break the established law.

"Your Majesty, I don't know who created this system..."

Looking at the copy in his hand, Li Si frowned slightly. He is no longer the Li Si who wrote the "Book of Remonstrance and Expulsion of Guests", but now the prime minister of the Qin Dynasty who has great power and has a vested interest in the employment system of the Qin Dynasty.

The First Emperor glanced at him and said calmly.

"It was made by me, do you have any questions?"

Liss:  …

"I have no problem—"

Although the Qin Dynasty had three princes and nine ministers, and the dynasty was full of civil and military officials, the first emperor was not a monarch who was castrated and restricted by the Confucian rules in later generations. He was the first emperor who created the world and unified the world, and he accumulated great power.

Seeing that the First Emperor took the question directly and forcefully, Li Si suppressed any words he wanted to take the opportunity to accuse and reprimand.

Li Si's fate made everyone dumbfounded.

Then, reluctantly, I began to study the content that could be strived for in this system.

Processes and the like are easy to talk about, but the scope of propositions and selection criteria are too important.

Which doctrine is examined and which standard is followed will determine which one can take advantage in this new game and stand out. This is bound to be a protracted discussion.

No one can stay out of it.

At the meeting, unprecedented arguments and debates lasted the whole morning.

The First Emperor did not express his position, but sat quietly in the court, listening to their quarrel. While listening, I carefully compared the ideas proposed by Zhao Ying in my mind.

Then, I discovered that my grandson is really a genius!

The thoughtfulness is simply terrifying——

In fact, how did he know that his grandson not only knew how to take the imperial examination in later generations, but also knew how to take the college entrance examination in later generations. Compared with these people who had never even heard of the imperial examination system, he was a proper expert. exist.

According to Zhao Ying's idea.

Not only should there be traditional subjects such as Jinshi, Mingjing, Mingfa, Mingsuan, Mingzi, etc., but also categories such as military art, martial arts, agriculture, medicine and even astrology and nature.

Catch all the schools of thought in one fell swoop.

In addition to Jinshi, who is required to read hundreds of schools of thought and be knowledgeable, other subjects only require specialization.

In order to balance the interests of various companies and maintain stability between the DPRK and China, he even mentioned the issue of the proportion of talents selected by various companies. Of course, he only mentioned this issue and did not frame it.

Just like textbooks and test standards, there is no framework.

Professional matters should be left to professional people. He believed that as long as he proposed it and the First Emperor supported it, these ministers in the Qin Dynasty would automatically make this system perfect and balanced.

The meeting is over.

But the influence of this system has just begun. Under the deliberate promotion of the First Emperor, it spread crazily to all directions at an extremely rapid and unstoppable speed.

In almost ten months, it became known to everyone.

Countless people beat their chests and stamped their feet.

But more people rejoiced.

What Zhao Ying didn't expect was that after the news spread that Da Qin was about to pass the examination to select the world's talents, a crack would appear among the nobles of the six Shandong countries who were originally monolithic.

Why are we so firmly opposed to the Qin Dynasty?

That's because Da Qin not only swept them from the clouds to the ground, but the current employment system has almost cut off their path to advancement. In the military merit system, when considering military merit, they had no chance. Most of the officials in counties and counties were from the old Qin Dynasty, and they did not have an advantage in being recommended for official positions.

How can they maintain their aristocratic status without overthrowing the Qin Dynasty?

How can they pass on their family traditions?

But now, the imperial examination system provides them with a glimmer of possibility!

Examinations are based on meritocracy!

How can the children of Shandong be afraid of Lao Qin in Guanzhong?

For a moment, everyone felt a little complicated.

"Don't fall into the trap of the Qin Dynasty. They are dividing our strength..."

Many people are heartbroken.

The "sinister intentions" of the Qin court were seen through at a glance.

However, people's hearts have really begun to fluctuate, especially those children from the side branches who were originally not powerful in the family, and those from poor families who did not have much chance to stand out during the Six Kingdoms period...

When the news was fed back to the First Emperor via the Black Ice Platform, the First Emperor couldn't help laughing.

Therefore, the First Emperor issued an order to allow people all over the world to openly discuss and offer advice and suggestions on issues related to the imperial examinations. As a result, an unprecedented discussion swept across the Qin Dynasty.

All families, factions, and nobles from all over the world stood on their own side and fought hard to gain a chance for their own family.

Opposing Qin is a matter for the future, fighting for one's own interests is a matter of now.

Those who are willing to make a desperate move and swear against Da Qin are——

not much!

At least, not many dare to burn the boat.

After all, your life is yours, and the knife belongs to the First Emperor. Those who dare to fight to the death and are loyal to the motherland have already died for the country. Why wait until now?

Otherwise, it would not have been necessary to wait until the First Emperor was gone before someone would dare to stand up, chirp, add fuel to the flames, and talk bitterly about the tyranny of Qin and other such nonsense.

……

Zhao Ying naturally did not expect these unexpected gains.

Of course, at this time, he had no time to deal with this. Because, his eyes have already been fixed on the Huns. Although newlyweds are the time for you and me to be together, it has now entered mid-February of the 36th year of the First Emperor.

It has been less than half a year since the First Emperor's last tour.

If I want to completely establish a foothold in Daqin and have enough power to protect myself before the First Emperor goes on patrol, he must achieve sufficient military exploits as soon as possible.

Isn't that why you married Wang Nan? How can you really have the leisure to stay at home and enjoy the love between your children?

Even if there is, it will have to wait until the situation is completely stabilized.

Therefore, on the second day after the wedding, before his new wife came back, Zhao Ying, who received the news that the Huns were attacking villages and towns in Jiuyuan County again, ran to the palace and solemnly requested the First Emperor to send troops again!

"Nonsense, how could anyone abandon his wife just after getting married and go out to fight..."

Looking at Zhao Ying who looked serious, the First Emperor shook his head helplessly.

"Father, if the Xiongnu are not eliminated, our Qin Dynasty will not be able to live in peace for a day. As the eldest grandson of the emperor, how can I sit back and watch the Xiongnu cause chaos, but the love between my children is long..."

Zhao Ying's eyes were blazing and he would not give in.

"Great Father, now I have not made any achievements, but I am now ranked in the Jiangshan State Council, comparable to the nine ministers. People in the world only fear your majesty, rather than admiring my merits. Great Father, now I have a family, a career, and an adult. I can't live under your old man's wing all my life. Now, it's time for me to share your worries..."

After saying that, Zhao Ying looked around and focused his attention on the cauldron in the main hall.

He strode forward, crouched down, and then, under the surprised gaze of the First Emperor, he lifted the large cauldron weighing more than 800 kilograms with one arm, steadily, and then easily lifted it under the eyes of everyone in disbelief. He waved it around a few times and then put it back down easily.

"Father, with my courage, who can stop me..."

Only then did the First Emperor wake up from the shock.

"The bravery of my grandson is unparalleled in the world, and no one can match it. Even though our ancestors were honest and evil, I am afraid they are not as good as me!"

There is no way, this scene is too scary.

He weighed more than 800 kilograms and lifted it with one hand. This strength was shocking and unbelievable. The First Emperor knew that he was strong, but he didn't expect that his strength would reach such an inhuman level.

At this moment, everyone in the hall was looking at Zhao Ying with a somewhat fanatical look. They never expected that the emperor's eldest grandson, who smiled every day and had a gentle attitude, could be so brave.

Even Hei couldn't help but be speechless and couldn't close his mouth for a long time.

The ancients were adept at martial arts, especially in the Qin Dynasty.

A warrior like Zhao Ying, who is two meters tall and powerful, is the object of mad worship by everyone.

"Your Highness's bravery is unheard of!"

Hei, who rarely expressed his opinions in front of the First Emperor, couldn't help but marvel over and over again.

Looking at the majestic and heroic Zhao Ying, who was eager to try, the First Emperor's eyes flashed, and he didn't know what he was thinking of. He hesitated for a moment, and finally made up his mind.

"Okay, since you have this intention, then I will accept you!"

Having said this, the First Emperor walked up to Zhao Ying, patted Zhao Ying's shoulder gently, and stared into Zhao Ying's eyes kindly.

"However, Ying'er, before that, you must promise my eldest father something..."

Zhao Ying nodded seriously.

"Father, please speak——"

"I promise you, Dad, no matter whether you succeed or not, don't underestimate the enemy and put yourself in danger. For Dad, it doesn't matter whether the Xiongnu can be pacified or not. It doesn't matter whether you can make meritorious deeds. What matters is , you must come back safely! Dad, I am still waiting for you to handle the government affairs for me..."

Concern is chaos.

No matter how heroic and decisive the First Emperor was, he still felt a little uneasy when facing the successor he had high hopes for, his favorite grandson.

Feeling the love and care from the heart of the First Emperor, Zhao Ying was moved in his heart, but a relaxed smile appeared on his face.

He joked cheerfully.

"Father, you are so reluctant to let me go. You are such a strong man that I can't bear to take advantage of you..."

The First Emperor's originally somewhat sad mood was completely destroyed by his words, and he glared at him angrily.

"It's good if you know. If you know, come back and work for me honestly..."

Zhao Ying deliberately exaggerated his expression of pain.

The Emperor couldn't help laughing.

At noon, the First Emperor did not leave any food, so he simply sent Zhao Ying home.

"Go away, go back and stay with the bride, why are you always here with an old man like me..."

Zhao Ying knew that the First Emperor wanted him to spend more time with Wang Nan before setting off for the expedition. He didn't show any pretense. He stood up and ran away very neatly. His posture was as if he was afraid that the First Emperor would regret it. He was so angry that the First Emperor was angry behind him. Swearing.

Seeing Zhao Ying's "embarrassment", he ran away.

Hu Hai, who was standing outside the main hall, thought that Zhao Ying had touched the First Emperor's bad luck. He couldn't help but feel happy. He straightened his robes and happily went to the main hall to accompany the First Emperor.

The First Emperor still liked this son.

In addition, because Zhao Ying was about to go on an expedition, he became much gentler to his always well-behaved son, which moved Hu Hai to the point of almost crying.

I, Hu Hai, the long-lost father's love is back!

Zhao Ying naturally wouldn't pay attention to this.

What he is thinking about now is how to grow his strength as quickly as possible within the past six months and how to conquer the Huns.

Is fighting for favor useful?

Useless.

Only strength is fundamental.

Although history has undergone many changes, what remains unchanged is that the First Emperor still has no intention of establishing the position of prince. As long as the position of prince is not established, the original historical risks will not be eliminated. .

You have to continue to prepare for the worst.

Mi Ji and Wang Nan had already made plans for Zhao Ying to stay in the palace for dinner, but when they saw that he came back to eat, they felt happy, and Wang Nan's eyes flashed with a hint of joy that could not be concealed.

But her mother-in-law was right in front of her, so she couldn't show too much dependence, so she could only stand up softly and look at Zhao Ying who was approaching.

Instead, it was the younger sister Zhao Xi, moving her short legs as usual and swooping over.

"Cauldron, cauldron..."

Then, with a flying swoop, he accurately landed on Zhao Ying's thigh.

Zhao Ying leaned over with a smile, took her off his lap, and held her in his arms. Although this sister is so cute and cute that her elder brother still can't even call her, she is becoming more and more dependent on him.

"Big brother-"

Seeing Zhao Ying come in, Zhao Qi, who was waiting to eat, stood up in awe and saluted.

Zhao Ying nodded and asked casually.

"How are you doing with your studies recently? Is that guy Zhao Gao really dedicated to teaching? If not, just tell me..."
