Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1058

"Isn't the recent incident caused by two people who were stranded in Chang'an City?"

Qin Tian didn't explain much, just said this sentence.

After he finished speaking, the whole hall fell silent.

This sentence is actually wrong, but Qin Tian secretly changed the concept, but these people in the court couldn't find any reason to refute it.

After all, what happened in Chang'an City recently was caused by two people who were stranded in Chang'an, so the root cause has been found. To solve the problem, we must naturally start from the root cause.

The whole thing seems to be somewhat problematic in general, but when it is analyzed separately, no problem can be found.

Everyone stared at Qin Tian, ​​thinking that Qin Tian was really cunning.

And after everyone quieted down, Qin Tiancai continued: "Your Majesty, no matter how you say it, it is not a good thing for scholars to stay in Chang'an City for a long time because they don't have anything to do with production. Moreover, changing the imperial examination from one year to three years, It is also more beneficial for the selection of talents, so please allow it."

Li Shimin at this time naturally wanted to agree, but after Qin Tian said this, someone from the court stood up again.

"Lord Qin, I won't talk about the scholars staying in Chang'an. You said that it is beneficial to change the imperial examination from one year to three years. May I ask, what is the benefit?"

The official glared at Qin Tian, ​​and the others also cast their gazes over.

"That is, taking the exam every three years is of no benefit at all. In three years, I'm afraid there will be a talent vacancy in Datang."

"That's right, I have no one to use in Tang Dynasty, what do you think should I do?"

Everyone became active again, but Qin Tian smiled indifferently and said, "True talents can pass the exam once. If they fail the exam, let them continue the exam next year. They still haven't made much progress, so they stay in Chang'an It is also not conducive to their studies. After the exam is replaced every three years, they can go home and study with concentration. If they make progress, they will naturally be able to pass the exam."

Speaking of this, Qin Tian said again: "Your Majesty, although it is said that the exam is held every three years, it doesn't mean that they don't usually take the exam. We can distribute the exam to all states and counties. Each county has an exam every year. Those selected by the examiners can be awarded the title of scholar. With the title of scholar, they can take the state examination in the next year. Those who are promoted in the state examination can be awarded the title of juren. Generally speaking, juren can be an official In the third year, Juren can come to the capital for the spring examination, and only after passing the examination can they become Jinshi, so they don't have to come to Chang'an City every year, and they can also know how their academic performance is, wouldn't it be convenient Everyone, can you also reduce some pressure for our Datang and promote some talents?"

Candidates can take exams in their own states and counties, which can naturally save a lot of trouble, and passing the state and county exams can let them know their strengths, so that they can have a better understanding of themselves.

As long as Juren can take the exam in Beijing, the number of people in the spring exam in Chang'an City will be smaller, which will reduce the pressure on the imperial court and the invigilators.

After Qin Tian finished saying this, the officials in the court immediately started discussing again, but at this time, some people agreed with it, and of course, some people opposed it.

"I think Mr. Qin's method is feasible. After subdividing it in this way, talents are talents. The examinations of prefectures and counties are outstanding, and they must be outstanding after coming to the capital."

"Not bad, not bad, and reducing some incompetent scholars to come to Chang'an City, it can save a lot of trouble."

"Hey, this is simply delaying those scholars. Some people are smart and make rapid progress within a year. If you let him wait for three years, isn't this a waste of other people's time and youth? In three years, he can serve the court. Do a lot of things."

"That's right, that's right. Some people didn't write well during the spring exam because they were nervous, but they may have real talents. Isn't it too cruel for such a person to make him wait for three years?"

In the court, those who support and those who oppose are arguing, and no one can persuade the other. In contrast, Qin Tian at this time has calmed down and let the two groups of people quarrel endlessly.

Here, Li Shimin was amazed again.

He did not expect that Qin Tian not only came up with the idea of ​​changing the imperial examination system from one year to three years, but also proposed the concept of scholar and juren. This concept allows those scholars to take the exam every year and know who they are. In this way, when they go to Beijing to rush for the exam, it will be another situation, and the talents can be said to be recruited to the maximum extent.

Moreover, exams are allowed in various places, so after these people enter Beijing, more people in that place will pass the Jinshi exam, and the officials in that place will have face and political achievements. In this way, officials will definitely vigorously promote education for the sake of political achievements career, and as long as these people have the ability, no matter whether they are rich or poor, those local officials should strongly support their studies, right?

With more people studying, the power of those aristocratic and powerful families must be weaker.

After thinking of these, Li Shimin became more and more excited.

Qin Tian's method can be said to have solved several problems.

However, seeing that there are still many people in the court who oppose, Li Shimin was a little hesitant and did not make a decision immediately. Moreover, this matter has affected too many scholars, so he thinks it is better to see the reactions of those scholars. If it is decided like this, if the consequences are out of control, it will be a bad thing.

Therefore, when the officials in the DPRK were talking like this, Li Shimin just let them quarrel non-stop, and when they were almost quarreled, he finally said: "Okay, we will discuss this matter later, and I will retire today." Bar."

The officials retreated, but the snow in Chang'an City was still falling.

As soon as Qin Tian walked out of the hall, he was stopped by an eunuch.

"My lord, the Holy Majesty orders you to go to the imperial study."

Hearing this, Qin Tian smiled and nodded in response.

The imperial study room was as warm as spring, Qin Tian hurriedly asked after entering, "My lord, I don't know what Xuanchen is doing?"

Li Shimin squinted at Qin Tian, ​​and said, "You boy, you are really shrewd. Did you do this because of Du Ruhui?"

Qin Tiandao: "You can't hide anything from the Holy Majesty, but the minister did not do this for the sake of Lord Du. Lord Du thought of this, and the minister felt that it would be beneficial to the court, so he did it. I just don’t know what His Majesty meant, whether I agree or disagree.”

"I agree, but it's not easy for you to accomplish this, so you have to think carefully about the next thing."

Qin Tian nodded, he naturally understood what Li Shimin meant in this sentence, offending a scholar, is this easy to handle?
