Your Majesty, You Can't

"I would like to ask His Majesty to implement the imperial examination system."

"Talk about it," Zhao Yin folded his hands on his chin, leaned forward slightly on the dragon chair, and seemed to be full of interest in the new system proposed by He Lanzhi, "this imperial examination system has another What's unique about it?"

"What this dynasty is doing is the system of wealth and wealth, from generation to generation, from father to son, so it is very easy for the officials of this dynasty to have poor talents or corrupt character. This kind of hereditary is not conducive to the long-term development of this dynasty. develop."

Zhao Yin nodded and signaled He Lanzhi to continue talking.

"When looking through the history books, I found that the reason why the previous dynasty fell was that the king was fatuous and ruleless, and the officials were mediocre. After generations of hereditary succession, the incompetent finally occupied most of the court. It is inevitable that the previous dynasty will decline.

The implementation of the imperial examination system can better avoid the lessons learned from the past.The imperial examination system selects officials through examinations, which not only sets the criteria for judging the children of the nobles, but also enables talented ordinary people to become the pillars of the country through the imperial examination system, so that there will be no people who fish in troubled waters in the court. "

"Oh——" Zhao Yin dragged out a long and clear voice, separated his overlapping hands with a half smile, and gently turned the emerald green finger on his thumb, "Ai Qing's idea is very interesting, It's just that I still have some questions that I want you to clarify."

He Lanzhi had foreseen that Zhao Yin would ask questions. After all, the one-year-old little emperor had more thoughts than before. It would be a vain attempt to fool Zhao Yin, so he saluted and replied, "Please, Your Majesty."

"Since you know the system of seniority and wealth in this dynasty, do you know where the biggest resistance will come from once you want to implement the imperial examination system?"

"I understand," He Lanzhi replied without hesitation, "this matter will most encroach on the interests of those powerful and senior executives. If the heirs cannot inherit the official position and receive a generous salary, they cannot monopolize the officialdom, and they will definitely obstruct the imperial examination. Even if this matter was proposed by a humble official, after involving the entire official class, there is no guarantee that they will not unite to oppose this move."

Zhao Yin looked at He Lanzhi's reaction, and a satisfied smile appeared in Mo Mo's eyes, "Your heart is like a mirror, I am very pleased. It seems that I have thought about how to avoid officials' obstruction in advance."

"I did have reason to persuade them. Due to the phenomenon of class solidification, the educational resources enjoyed by the children of officials and eunuchs are undoubtedly much better than those of ordinary people. They already have an advantage in participating in the imperial examination. There is no need to worry too much about the children of the rich and powerful being inferior to ordinary people."

He Lanzhi blatantly stated that the imperial examination system would not deceive officials, pretending to be righteous and awe-inspiring, and majesticly bullying and forcing Zhao Yin in front of him.

Anyway, what he said was false, and it was real only after he had actually acted.The most important thing is to coax those officials to agree to the imperial examination system first.

As for the imperial examination will not cheat the children of powerful ministers, only fools believe it.But his task is to coax the powerful officials into fools first.

Since ancient times, the saying that masters come out of the folks, didn't it come out of thin air.

"If the children of officials and eunuchs really want to be mediocre, the ministers will take the lead in impeaching them. The imperial examination is just a means to test their abilities. After being at ease for so long, they should indeed be tested." He Lanzhi continue.

Zhao Yin raised his eyebrows and glanced at him, "He Lanqing, don't forget that you also inherited He Lan as prime minister. You really don't care about abolishing the Shiqing Shilu system?"

He Lanzhi replied firmly, "I don't care!"

Prime Minister Yuan also cares about this matter, he, a prime minister who came out of the mountain halfway, needs to be concerned about a wool...
