Expropriation is a system of selecting officials from top to bottom.

Many high-ranking officials have the power to open the government, and whoever they choose to be an official is called recruiting.

For example, Xun You and Liu Biao were all appointed officials by He Jinzheng.

There is another way, that is celebrity recommendation.

The most famous one is Yuedan Review.

Whoever can become the top of the Yuedan Review will surely become famous and be praised by the aristocratic families.

However, the recommendation of celebrities has also become an important means for aristocratic families to form cliques and cultivate their own power.

In every big family, there will be one or more celebrities.

Moreover, they have mastered educational resources and the ability to cultivate talents.

The talents they cultivated were recommended by themselves to enter the court as officials, and these talents would naturally work for them.

From the sentence "students and former officials are all over the world", we can see how strong the family's ability to cultivate talents is.

This is also the fundamental reason why the family is getting stronger and stronger.

The imperial court had no choice but to turn a blind eye and close one eye.

After all, if the court wants talents, it can only rely on the aristocratic family.

There may be a lot of talents among the humble family, but they can't even enter the threshold of civil servants in the court.

No reputation, no one to recommend, all talents are empty talk.

In history, Liu Bei is the best example!

If he hadn't used the name of the clan of the Han Dynasty, the governor of Youzhou would have ignored him?

Will Guan Yu and Zhang Fei join him?

Will Tao Qian "give up" Xuzhou to him?

Even so, his name is still wrong, and his words are not right!

It was when he took refuge in Cao Cao that Cao Cao recommended him as Yuzhou Shepherd, and he was called Liu Yuzhou.

Therefore, Dahan's talents mainly rely on recommendations.

This greatly limits the origin of talents and provides convenience to the aristocratic family.

Hearing Liu Bian ask where talent comes from,

Everyone knows what he wants to do.

However, the family didn't care,

Because the first emperor did the same thing, and failed without any suspense.

The first emperor Liu Hong founded Hongdu Menxue with the intention of cultivating students from poor families.

but,

The imperial court did not have so many educational resources at all, and books were a big problem.

Without the carrier of knowledge, it is difficult to cultivate talents only by oral instruction.

Coupled with institutional corruption,

Hongdu Menxue soon became a tool for corrupt officials like Shi Changshi to make money.

It's hard not to fail.

"Return to Your Majesty, talents are cultivated!"

Cai Yong knew that what he said would definitely violate the interests of the aristocratic family, but for the future of the great man and to repay His Majesty's respect, he had to stand up.

"I implore Your Majesty to re-establish a school to continuously train talents for the imperial court!"

He bowed at ninety degrees, with an extremely sincere and firm attitude!

Everyone in the Yuan family sneered in their hearts,

So what if the school is re-established? Is it possible that the imperial court can really train humble bachelors?

they made up their minds,

If His Majesty asks them for books, they will at most take out some insignificant ones to perfunctory, and they will never turn in important knowledge.

After all, that knowledge is the foundation of their family.

"Cai Qing's words are very close to my heart!"

Liu Bian waited for Cai Yong to make this suggestion.

Immediately said,

"Cai Qing, Tang Qing, I order you two to restart Hongdumen School, change its name to Imperial College, and open enrollment to the whole world."

"No matter what your background is, as long as you pass the examination, you can enter the school. Those who perform well will be exempted from all tuition, food and accommodation fees."

Imperial College!

A college dedicated to cultivating talents for the imperial court.

Seeing Liu Bian getting ready to fight, the aristocratic family couldn't help but sneer in their hearts.

"Your Majesty, I send you a word: the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment!"

Cai Yong and Tang Mao hurriedly accepted the order: "I accept the order!"

"Your Majesty, to set up a school to cultivate talents, you need to prepare a lot of books and blank letters. These things are not a small fee."

Although I really hope that the school will be established,

But Cai Yong had to let the emperor know that he had to face those difficulties in doing so.

He hoped that His Majesty could be strong again and force the aristocratic family to donate books and school supplies like the last time.

therefore,

He took the lead and said, "I would like to donate all the books at home to Imperial College!"

Tang Mao also said the same thing.

He is also a scholar. Although the collection of books at home is not as large as that of the aristocratic family, there are still thirty or fifty books.

then,

Lu Zhi, Cao Cao and others also stood up and expressed their willingness to donate books.

In this way, the Yuan family, the Yang family and other big families will feel very uncomfortable.

He cursed secretly in his heart: Cai Yong, an old man, actually used this method to force them to donate books.

Several big aristocratic families were not far behind, and expressed their willingness to donate books.

"I accept the wishes of all the ministers."

Liu Bian smiled slightly and glanced at Yuan Feng, "It's rare that Yuan Qing is so loyal to the imperial court and willing to donate precious books."

"However, I don't need your books."

Although there are many books in the aristocratic family, they are not as complete as the imperial court.

Moreover, Liu Bian knew very well that it was impossible for the aristocratic families to produce really useful books.

Even if they are forced to donate, what they get is just some waste wood.

Instead, let them do something else.

"His Majesty!"

Hearing what the emperor said, Cai Yong and Tang Mao became anxious.

The aristocratic families who were finally deceived donated books, how could you not want it, Your Majesty.

Without books, how can we teach students knowledge and cultivate talents?

Chapter 96 The Family Panic, Cai Yong's Doubt

Cai Yong and Tang Mao were anxious like ants on a hot pot, but Liu Bian was still not in a hurry.

He didn't seem to see the two of them,

Then to Yuan Fengdao,

"Yuan Qing, I heard that your Yuan family's former officials are all over the world?"

Yuan Feng looked at the Son of Heaven nervously, and quickly denied, "Your Majesty, don't listen to the words of villains. The Yuan family has been loyal for generations, and the descendants of the Yuan family are all serving in the court."

The implication is that no one outside has anything to do with his Yuan family.

Liu Bian waved his hands and smiled, "Yuan Qing don't need to be nervous, I just want to ask you for a favor."

"I need a hundred thousand stones of bamboo, and I want to ask if you have any acquaintances in the south who can help me transport them here."

There are not so many bamboos around Luoyang. If you want bamboo, you can only transport it from the south.

Yuan Feng breathed a sigh of relief,

"Your Majesty, I heard that Jingzhou is rich in bamboo. Liu Jingsheng, the shepherd of Jingzhou, is a clan member of the Han family. Why don't your majesty ask him to help?"

No matter what His Majesty's intentions are, he is resolutely unwilling to expose the power cultivated by the family.

"Students and old officials are all over the world", that is the basis for his Yuan family to gain a foothold in the imperial court!

"Liu Biao?"

Liu Bian snorted coldly, "I've been on the throne for so long, and he hasn't come back to see him. Do you think I can trust him?"

"Yuan Benchu."

Since you are unwilling to help, I will go to your son's head office.

"Chen is here!"

Yuan Shao is full of blood, and he wants to show off.

After being called, he walked out immediately.
