After I was reborn, I became the white moonlight of the destitute son

Chapter 170 Transforming Contradictions
The official prosecution of private salt is a good thing that benefits the country and the people. When He Beiting mentioned it, Zhou Yanqing's eyes lit up.When he heard that a city ship department would be established later, his whole body seemed to be ignited, and his blood boiled with enthusiasm, wishing to roll up his sleeves and do a big job right away.

But when he heard His Highness the Seventh Prince wanted him and Lin Qingyuan to take charge of the private salt department, he was stunned, and then frowned.

Although this matter will allow him to quickly gain a firm foothold in the court and express his ambitions, but there is still the Zhou family behind him, and he cannot abandon the entire Zhou family for his own selfishness.

After thinking for a while, Zhou Yanqing shook his head firmly and said: "I can't do it, the Zhou family doesn't stand up. The elder brother of the Yang family is a man of great talent, and he can be the master."

He Beiting seemed to have expected Zhou Yanqing's reaction, and then he recommended Zhou Xining face to face, as well as what His Royal Highness said later.Hearing this, Zhou Yanqing was taken aback for a while.

At the end, he touched his forehead with a wry smile and said: "My sister is really..." Juxian does not avoid relatives.

"Huaiyuan, you and I have explained everything thoroughly, do you also think that what Ning'er said is feasible? His Highness the Seventh Prince..." Zhou Yanqing thought for a while before saying: "The Seventh Highness also agrees? It should be very difficult for him to put pressure on one of the Seventh Princes. Even if not all the officials in the court have intricate relationships behind them, there are five or six out of ten.

Moreover, more than [-]% of the hundreds of officials in the court, except military generals, belong to different camps.Once their interests are touched, they will group together to attack.His Highness the Seventh Prince can suppress one, ten, or all of them?

In addition, the families behind the courtiers, although I dare not say that they are all aristocratic families, but they all have a certain right to speak.Usually, there will be endless scrambling and scrambling for a little profit, not to mention such a large profit of private salt, how can they not fight for their heads and blood?
My younger sister has always been transparent in seeing people and things, so I'm afraid that only after she understands this, she would think of His Royal Highness the Seventh Highness standing in front of her, while Brother Lin and I only do things and don't get ahead.

However, it is easier said than done to actually implement it? "

When Zhou Yanqing started talking, He Beiting was thinking in his heart. In fact, he has been thinking about the feasibility of this matter these days.Undoubtedly, Zhou Xining's idea was not wrong. It seemed that His Highness the Seventh Highness was standing in front of her, but she actually included the Emperor.But the premise is that His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince and the Emperor can bear it when the aristocratic family and the nobles of the court unite to exert pressure.

Once he can't bear it and starts to compromise, the consequences... I'm afraid the Zhou family will have to bear it all.

He Beiting had an idea in his mind, but he was not yet mature enough. After turning this idea in his mind, he still said it, "Qianzhi, if, I mean, if there is a way to bring all the great families and courtiers together The conflict between the nobles and the court turned into a conflict within themselves..."

Zhou Yanqing frowned first, and then his eyes lit up, "We can add a separate subject for each family and honor... that is, how should I put it? At present, most of the big families in the Xuan Kingdom are the eldest sons of the eldest sons Inherit the family business, become an official through scientific examinations, and set up a household. Then those descendants below the eldest son and descendants of the concubine can only find another way out.

Except for the Zhou family who encourages all descendants to take scientific examinations to become officials, in order not to hinder the official career of their eldest sons, most of the nobles do not allow other descendants to take scientific examinations, even the shadows are not allowed...

Like the Lu family in Xuancheng, each generation has children and prosperity, but each generation only has at most two officials.Although there is no limit to the eldest son of the family, the most likely person is selected from the eldest son of each house to participate in the scientific examination.

In this case, although the imperial court did not expressly stipulate that multiple members of the same generation in a family are not allowed to serve as officials, it seems that each family has its own convention.Even if the second son and the bastard son are better than the eldest son, they can only find other jobs..."

He Beiting glanced to the side as if feeling something, and then said: "This is also a century-old evil of Xuan Guo, because of the difference in seniority and seniority, how many capable people have nowhere to pay for it."

Then he said: "I will ask Your Majesty to give it a try, and the private salt department will select available talents from the second sons and bastards of each family. In this way, it will not only give each family an equal opportunity, but also absorb truly useful talents at the same time. A person who can still put the contradictions in each mansion..."

"That's right, that's what it means." Zhou Yanqing nodded hastily.

He Beiting glanced at Zhou Yanqing, and praised unabashedly: "Young Master Zhou Yanqing really deserves his reputation! This suggestion will not only benefit the second sons and concubine sons of this generation, but also the next ten generations will be because of you!" It will be beneficial. And it can improve the mediocrity of the officials in the court. This is a great virtue that can be recorded in the annals of history. I am afraid that even the old emperors will not have this honor..."

Zhou Yanqing said embarrassingly: "I often listen to my grandfather discussing these family matters, and I only feel it when I hear it a lot. There is no such thing as what you said..."

But He Beiting said: "Nowadays, half of the officials in the court are graduates from scientific examinations, and the other half are recruited under the influence of shadows.

Let’s not talk about those who failed in the scientific examination and became officials, but those who passed the scientific examination, although they all earned their names on the gold list based on their true talents and learning, those who entered the official position did not necessarily use their talents according to their ability.

If a student from a poor family does not get the first grade, it will be difficult for him to become an official and enter the imperial court.Just waiting for the shortage can turn their heads white, which is why there are obviously many poor students in high school, but there are not many of them in the court.

Although the examination to become an official has given students all over the world a fair chance to take the imperial examination, but to put it bluntly, how have they ever had real fairness?Although the major academies recruit students from all over the world, the exorbitant tuition fees have turned away the poor students in disguise.

They don't have great Confucianism to teach them, so they can only study with rural masters who have fallen or are not in office.And the Kaimeng teachers of those sons of aristocratic families are better than the masters in their schools. They have already lost people from the beginning...

Han Chuang has studied hard for more than ten years, and finally won the gold list, but still has no way to succeed.If things go on like this, not only will Xuan Guo’s court be ruined, but I’m afraid it will also dampen the enthusiasm of poor students to serve the court..."

Zhou Yanqing sighed with emotion, yes, even he only thought of the second sons and concubine sons of those families, and he didn't think of all the people in the world who love to read.

No matter how noble the family is, if compared with the mortal beings in the world, it is simply a drop in the ocean.

After sighing, he suddenly said: "Huaiyuan, since the Private Salt Division can give an extra trial to the second sons and concubine sons of the family, why can't the Shibo Division give priority to selecting from the poor family officials? At the same time, we can also set one among the six departments. The evaluation system for officials in the DPRK and China to compete for promotion is to use their talents according to their abilities, and to act according to their talents.
