In the Mausoleum of the First Emperor, my immortal diary was discovered

Chapter 145 In this world, the worst possible outcome is another emperor! ! !
After the court incident, Li Si followed the First Emperor back to Zhangtai Palace.

Along the way, Li Si was still immersed in excitement.Detailed academic knowledge is used as the benchmark for examination, and outstanding candidates are selected to serve as officials in the court.

This type of system was simply unheard of in Li Si's mind.

This kind of system has never appeared in ancient times.Maybe someone has thought about it, but no one has the courage to do these things.

This requires a strong hand that is enough to break the upper class's monopoly on the knowledge of the lower class.What's more, you need to have fearless courage and not be afraid that the lower class who have become wise will do some treacherous things.

The First Emperor's implementation of this unprecedented system was tantamount to setting a precedent for all generations. This was a great system that benefited all people in the world!

Li Si looked at the First Emperor with more and more respect.

After the First Emperor sat down on the dragon chair, his eyes fell on Li Si and he said slowly:
"Li Si, in order to promote the imperial examination, you still need to do more work."

"Promote the academic knowledge of various schools of thought thoroughly among the people!"

"I am very much looking forward to what the Great Qin will be like after all the people in the entire Great Qin can read and write!"

The First Emperor's face was full of excitement, as if he was looking forward to the extremely bright future of that empire.

Hearing this, Li Si hurriedly responded:

"This is what a humble official should do. Popularizing academic knowledge to all people in the world is an unprecedented merit."

"It is a great honor for Wei Chen to participate."

"only."

When he said this, a solemn look appeared on Li Si's face.

When the First Emperor saw this, he blamed him:

"If you have anything to say, you don't need to hide it. You and I, the king and my ministers, can just speak out."

After hearing the First Emperor's words, Li Si expressed all the worries in his heart:

"Your Majesty, this vigorous promotion of imperial examinations not only breaks the clan class's monopoly on knowledge."

"It further weakens their influence in the court."

"They are in the court. Although they are suppressed by His Majesty's royal aura, they dare not say anything else."

"But secretly, I'm afraid I won't be that honest."

"Moreover, even the sale of fine salt in the imperial court had a lot of problems."

"Guanyan took advantage of this opportunity and started selling at reduced prices again, grabbing a lot of shares back."

"Weichen feels that those who stop the sale of fine salt must be those from the clan!"

"They dare to act like this just because it affects the interests of their officials. I'm afraid your Majesty's introduction of the imperial examination will be fully resisted by them."

When the First Emperor heard this, his expression did not change much.

There was a sharp look in his eyes, and he said with dignity without anger:

"They are too comfortable! They are so comfortable that everything they have now feels like they deserve it."

"Hmph, little do they know that everything they have was given to them by the poor!"

"What I give to them belongs to them! If you don't give it to them and you still want to rob them, then kill them!"

Someone secretly attacked Xiyan, and this matter had long been reported to the First Emperor by Heibingtai's spies.

The reason why the First Emperor did not fight back was to wait for those clans to jump higher.

In this way, when I use the butcher's knife, I can be considered worthy of their ancestors who have contributed to the Qin Dynasty!
Li Si's eyes widened a bit, feeling the murderous aura spreading from the First Emperor.When he understood what the First Emperor meant, he bowed and retreated.

From the court, the First Emperor announced that he would vigorously promote the imperial examination.

The heads of each clan family also gathered at Junxinhou Mansion.

The atmosphere in the lobby was even more dignified than the last time the court introduced fine salt!

By promoting fine salt, the official salt controlled by the clans has nowhere to sell, which only reduces the financial income of the major clans.It has no qualitative impact on the status of each of their families.However, the vigorous development of the imperial examinations has almost completely cut off the roots of their major clans that sucked the blood of the common people.

At this moment, the heads of each family were filled with indignation.

"Your Majesty, he is so ruthless! He will use the theories of various schools of thought to select talents to serve as officials in the court. Doesn't this bring us clansmen and the common people to the same level?"

"Then from now on, how will the children of our families be different from the common people?"

The head of the Tian family stood up suddenly and expressed his anger.

The words of the head of the Tian family seemed to light a powder keg all of a sudden. The head of the Zhang family also stood up and said angrily:

"Based on the theories of hundreds of schools of thought, select the outstanding ones to serve as officials in the court? From the time of the Emperor of Zhou to the present day, which country has ever done anything like this?"

"If we, the officials of the empire, all study the theories of various schools of thought, can the empire still be called an empire?"

"Wouldn't it become a family of rivers and lakes?"

"Your Majesty's move is really throwing the majesty of the entire empire into the ground and trampling on it!"

"Snapped!!!"

Just as the head of the Zhang family finished speaking, there was a loud noise in the room.

Everyone looked up and saw the head of the Li family, who was so angry that he couldn't control his emotions.A sudden slap on the armrest caused such a loud noise.

The Li family's fat body was so angry that the fat under their clothes undulated like ripples in the lake, and they shouted loudly:

"Your Majesty, this is really too much!"

Although the head of the Li family was extremely angry, he didn't read much on weekdays. He had very little pen and ink, and even after thinking for a long time, he couldn't find a few words.

The leaders of all the clans frowned when they saw the head of the Li family like this.

"All right!"

Just when the head of the Li family had just organized his speech and was about to make an impassioned speech, Jun Xinhou Fan Wuji, the leader, spoke up.The head of the Li family had no choice but to suppress all the manuscripts he had finally summarized.

Fan Wuji looked at the clan leaders of each family, with a sinister look on his face, and said coldly:

"His Majesty previously introduced the sale of fine salt, and we still have ways to deal with it."

"But if the imperial examination is fully promoted, it will take less than five years!"

Fan Wuji slowly stretched out five fingers, and the cold light in his eyes became sharper.

"The descendants of our clan will be no different from those common people!"

"The glory of our ancestors will also be completely cut off in our next generation!"

"Our glory, wealth, and title we inherited will be lost to our descendants!"

"Can you accept this situation?"

Fan Wuji's sinister eyes scanned everyone present.

Following Fan Wuji's words, the clan chiefs thought that their descendants would have to study the classics of governance just like the common people they usually looked down upon before they could become officials in the court.

The look of indignation on his face became more intense.

Several clan chiefs raised their heads, looked at Fan Wuji and said in unison:

"Master Marquis, what do you think I should do?"

"We all listen to you."

Seeing this, the sharp light in Jun Xinhou Fan Wuji's eyes was almost as bright as a long knife, and he said coldly:

"Since the First Emperor so disregarded the country and the country of his ancestors"

"Then let me wait, why not change to another emperor?"
