Being born with seed is a great good thing for dignitaries. As long as they hold power, they all hope that future generations can be like themselves. In order to achieve this goal, they first talk about the excellence of blood, and then solidify it with the system.
It is not difficult to achieve the goal of being born with seed. In fact, it is only necessary to monopolize knowledge. Occasionally, a very small number of people will be accepted into their own class and whitewash, which will enjoy power for generations,
Sang Yu said that we should establish a system of selecting talents. Similar systems have existed for a long time, such as the meritocracy in the Pre-Qin Dynasty, the imperial examination system in the western and Eastern Han Dynasties, and the nine grade official selection law in the Cao Wei period. The above systems also give the common people a chance to rise. The rest have nothing to do with the common people.
Talent only refers to talented people. So what is a talented person? Taking many examples of the world of great controversy as an example, illiterate people at that time could be regarded as talents as long as they had a special talent, such as the generation of chicken singing and dog stealing. But talent is the only thing to do. In fact, it is the literate.
Ji Chang should know what sang Yu's so-called talent selection is about. He deliberately interrupted the topic. It's estimated that he didn't agree so much. He is not a common people, but a poor family. In fact, poor families are much better than ordinary people. The key to distinguish is literacy.
At the end of the banquet, after the people left and removed the table and other instruments, Liu Yan asked. It was two quarters of ugly time (1:30 at night). His sleeping tent was in the rear, and it was just a few steps away. It was like waiting for someone. He sat in his place and closed his eyes.
Jichang didn't let Liu Yanjiu wait. He left for a moment and asked for an audience.
"I knew Tai'an was coming." Liu Yan smiled and asked Ji Chang to find a place to sit down and asked, "but what about Zishen's talent selection method?"
"The king is as deep as fire." After a compliment, Ji Chang said, "the right Prime Minister really has a set of thoughts on choosing talents."
Since ancient times, people who can come up with a set of systems are not simple. It is almost necessary to learn from ancient and modern times. It is necessary to have a deep understanding of the society and what requirements the contemporary elite have. In addition, it is also necessary to master the current situation of the country.
After Ji Chang's introduction, Liu Yan seems to have something wrong. Sang Yu's set is based on meritocracy, combined with the inspection system and the nine grade official selection law, which is very similar to the integration of the existing system.
"In other words, set a date and publicly select talents. Talented people can recommend themselves regardless of their origin and accept the examination at their respective universities. The people who pass the examination are competing from the county, county and state to the center to accept the personal examination of the few?" Liu Yan was somewhat shocked. Although the set was not complete, it was the imperial examination system: "Zishen had a heart..."
The prototype of the imperial examination system appeared in the northern and Southern Dynasties. After Yang Jian established the state of Sui on behalf of Zhou, it became an official system, which was further planned by Yang Guang.
The emergence of the imperial examination system in the Yang Sui Dynasty was to curb the monopoly of the door lords and aristocratic families on officialdom and give the big families, local giants and poor families the opportunity to enter officialdom. Limited by the non popularization of education, it still had little relationship with the common people. We had to wait until the Song Dynasty, when the literacy rate was relatively high, and the imperial examination system benefited the rich people's homes. People without some capital still need to face the Loess and back to the sky. After all, reading also needs capital.
"Your Majesty, who is not a talented man with a lot of wealth?" Ji Chang saw that Liu Yan looked strange. When he thought about it, he thought of the topic he had talked about: "people have no way to study..."
Liu Yan didn't think about popularizing education, but he can only think about it.
Education is not so easy to do. It's up to the state to run universities. As long as money is enough, but teachers are a big problem. Then it's about teaching materials. The more important thing is... Neither the state nor the people can afford those who are out of work.
In fact, this is the case. In the era when everything depends on labor, any labor force is precious. People need to work from children to the elderly, regardless of men, women, old and young.
The state's support for scholars means that it is responsible for the clothing, food, housing and transportation of scholars, and then gives some subsidies to students' homes. Such a policy can spread education, but no country can afford it.
At present, the number of troops in the Han country means that there are many people who are out of work. With the national policy of cultivating students and raising interest has quickly become a reality, disarmament has been put on the agenda again. Since disarmament is necessary to give people enough productivity, how can we create an unknown number of people who are out of work.
"There are very few literate people in the world, all of whom are strong and powerful, big families and aristocratic families." Ji Chang smiled bitterly and said, "the world has been harmed by aristocratic families for a long time."
This is where Liu Yan is distressed. No matter what kind of talent selection system, the current beneficiaries will not have anything to do with the common people. Only those groups can be selected as officials.
"If the minister is superior, the big man will follow in the footsteps of the small court." Ji Chang was also bold and said, "it's better to settle for this situation."
In fact, the current situation in the Han country is fairly good. Although officials are still people of powerful, big families and aristocratic families, the common people at least have a way to change their fate by joining the army. Moreover, after determining the talent selection system, interest groups must hold together, and the forces of civil servants must rise.
Now is not the time for the prosperity of literary style. It is the country's need to be martial and belligerent, so what national policies appear is extremely critical.
"Maintain the status quo..." Liu Yan thought about it, and said, "cultivating students and maintaining interest must not make the inaction rule in the literary scene. The promising rule depends on all officials, and the supervision of all officials has become the primary task."
Ji Chang understood that if he wanted to supervise hundreds of officials, the candidate of the imperial envoy doctor of the state of Han should be determined early, and then the imperial Shi Zhongcheng, the imperial Shi and the imperial Shi should be supplemented. Then there is the matter of Tingwei's house.
"The minister recommended Yu Yi as the Tingwei, Xie Aike as the imperial censor, Wang Jian as the imperial censor, and Cui Yue as the General Administration of imperial history." Ji Chang considered these candidates for a long time: "just Yu Yi..."
The Yu family mentioned before that they only left part of their people to wait for the recovery of the Han state. They will take a boat to the south of the Yangtze River to attack Lin Yi with the strength of the whole family.
"I thought Yu Yi would be happy to take office." Liu Yan still appreciates Yu Yi, including the Yu family, who dare to open up. He said with a smile, "isn't it good for the Yu family to have a senior official in the Han Dynasty?"
Ji Chang also smiled. It's not uncommon for families to open up abroad. There should not be too many such things in Chinese history. It's difficult to study what happened in the Xia Dynasty, but at the end of the Yin and Shang Dynasties, a considerable number of families seized land to build a nation, and more than one Yu family is nothing.
The imperial Shi Zhongcheng is stationed in the imperial palace. The imperial Shi is responsible for impeaching the central government and the imperial palace. The imperial Shi is the imperial Shi sent by the central government to local counties to supervise the sheriffs.
Xie AI is now a military officer, but he is not a person who can only be a military general. He is a Confucian scholar, has high talent and academic attainments, is modest and polite, but has a straightforward personality. He led the army to conquer Jiankang this time. It is one thing to promote his title. There should also be reasonable arrangements for his official position. It is a very good decision to be the imperial historian Zhongcheng.
Wang Jian had many official positions in the state of Shijie and Zhao. The most peak period was the minister order of the state of Qin of the ran family. It was absolutely no difficulty to deal with the position of serving as the censor. Ji Chang recommended him for a very simple reason. After he was attached to the state of Han, he stood firm and could also play a role in restraining sang Yu.
Cui Yue is a member of the Cui family in Qinghe. She was originally an official in the state of Shijie Zhao, from situ Zuoshi, Hou in Guannei and xinpingxiang. After Shi Hu led the people to migrate, she turned to the state of Han. When the Han army conquered Jizhou, the Cui family in Qinghe made a lot of efforts.
In addition, it must be said that the Cui family in Qinghe and the Cui family in Boling belong to the same family, which can be traced back to the Qin and Han Dynasties, Cui Yiru, a descendant of Ji Zi, was appointed to the state of Qin (now Xianyang, Shaanxi Province) he was a doctor and granted the title of Marquis of Donglai. In the Han Dynasty, Cui Ye became a grand duke and lived in Qinghe. Cui Zhongmou, Cui Ye's younger brother, lived in Anping, Boling, and later divided into several branches, including Anping, Boling big house, Boling second house, and Boling third house. This was the beginning of the Cui family in Boling. After the Eastern Han Dynasty, both the Cui family in Boling and the Cui family in Qinghe were famous families in Shandong,.
Liu Yan is very satisfied with Ji Chang's recommendation. There are many interest groups in the Han country. Some balance must be done. What kind of people are placed in what position has become the key to restraint and balance.
"There's no way." Ji Chang said bluntly, "the king can't rule the country without them, but don't form vicious internal friction."
The current political situation in the state of Han is actually quite complex, which is related to Liu Yan's too fast speed in recovering the old land of the Han family. Because of the differences in region and family background, generally speaking, it will be divided into two major factions, namely, the North faction and the South faction.
The northern faction is also divided into aristocratic families and poor families, including Weijun sang family, Boling Cui family, changguangji family, Dongmou Cai family, Qinghe Cui family, Taiyuan Wang family, Pingyuan Wang family, Zhaojun Zhang family, Zhongshan Guo family, Changguang Li family, Changguang Qian family, and so on. Most of these families rose during the period when the Hu people ruled the Central Plains. Only changguangji, Dongmou Cai, Changguang Li and Changguang Qian followed the rise of Liu Yan.
There are few poor families in the Southern Sect. Except for the Jiangxia Lu family where Kai LV Yi is located, it is the continuation of Huanwen, xie'an, Yuan Qiao and other families born under the small imperial court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
By the way, in addition to those families, there is also a faction of generals, which is generally centered on ran min, Xu Zheng, LV Tai, etc. Huanwen and xie'an can also be regarded as part of the faction of generals.
In the Han Dynasty, there was no way for anyone to make Liu Yan rise in the end and fight from Changguang county to lay down today's vast territory. In fact, even if Liu Yan did not rise at the end of the decade, the people who followed him in the early stage would form a group, and then countless groups were accepted with the expansion of territory.
Liu Yan knows that although Ji Chang speaks bluntly, it is a good thing. People are divided into groups, which can never be stopped. From primitive people to the future, no matter what social development becomes, as long as there are people, there will be groups. What we should pay attention to is that we can't let them fight to damage the country.
Cultivating students and raising interest is not only aimed at the people. How to sort out the aristocratic family and how to assign state officials are all things Liu Yan should do after stopping the large-scale war.
"Where is Wang Meng now an official?" Liu Yan didn't forget the talent of the prime minister. After getting the answer, he asked, "how are your political achievements?"
"First of all as a county in Yuzhou, and then transferred to Bohai County, Nanpi, Jizhou, has made some achievements." Ji Chang knew that Liu Yan was deliberately cultivating Wang Meng. He knew that Liu Yan didn't really don't know. He wanted to make some arrangements through his own mouth, so he said: "this year's survey and assessment can serve as a county sheriff."
Liu Yan's attitude towards the aristocratic family has not changed. The aristocratic family can exist, but the aristocratic family must not be powerful. It is difficult to popularize education. He can only cultivate a group of poor students first. As Cao Cao once did, he can promote poor scholars to compete with aristocratic families, and then establish relevant universities in the process, so as to open the door for the majority of civilians to study and promote education in a circular and gradual manner.
"Zhangwu County is a good county." The Zhangwu County in Liu Yan's mouth is the front line after the war with Murong Yan state: "JINGLUE's next term of office will be Zhangwu County."
Ji Chang is the left prime minister, but his authority tends to be more inclined to military affairs, and the civil administration is dominated by the right Prime Minister sang Yu.
Liu Yan wants to arrange that Wang Meng should find sang Yu, but he has a purpose for Ji Chang. Presumably Ji Chang can guess.
The two of them talked directly until dawn. Ji Chang left Wang's account to go back to his big account. On the way, he saw sang Yu who seemed to have been waiting for a long time.
"The king is very happy to talk?" There was a little dew on Sang Yu's hairpin and shawl. He played a bullet and asked Ji Chang, "Tai'an still has spirit. Let's have a chat in Yu's account?"
Ji Chang looked up and down at sang Yu for a long time and sighed, "Zishen, you are too eager!"
What's the important thing that makes sang Yu stand up and wait for Ji Chang in the middle of the night? It's just that choosing talent is very important to them.
Facing Ji Chang's words like blame, sang Yu smiled and said nothing.
"Zishen thought about when he followed the king, and then thought about what he is doing now." Ji Chang also said, "don't be dragged down by the family."
"Although selfish, I dare not forget state affairs." Sang Yu responded with a calm smile, a clear conscience, and said, "benefiting all the people and what Yu wants, but it's hard to do now. Moreover, Tai'an doesn't want to see the southern aristocratic families fill the court?"
Ji Chang and sang Yu, the prime minister, stood on the side of the road and talked. Of course, people like soldiers just looked at it. People with enough identity saw it, but they were stunned and stopped, and then left with various expressions.
Maybe it's really bad to talk in the street. Then, sang Yu's attitude is firm. Ji Chang can only go with Sang Yu no matter how difficult he is.
What happened to the two courtiers soon reported to Liu Yan. When he heard the news, he was undressing for a nap in tuobaxiu's service. He lay down on his bed and said before closing his eyes: "fortunately, it's me. I should be worried about others."
Tuobaxiu was about to leave. He blinked when he heard Liu Yan's words
