The Summoning World of the Great Qin Empire

Chapter 608 Do You Know Why I Hit You?

A look of surprise appeared in Chen Ziang's eyes, but it wasn't because he really had the idea of ​​staying in the state of Chu as an official.

It was really unexpected that Wang Meng, who had a high position in Chu State, would condescend to express such meaning to himself.

This is enough to show his status in Wang Meng's eyes... If he nods his head and agrees now, he will not have to worry about his lack of a high position in the Chu State.

On the contrary, if he agrees, Wang Meng will give himself a high position in order to recruit talents from other countries in the future.

In this case, with my own "role model" here, wouldn't it be better to dig into other countries?

If you promise, you can get a high position at your fingertips, so you don't have to stay in Hancheng to join the army, you can avoid many dangers, and you can shelter your children and grandchildren with your eyes closed...

But... this is not in line with my nature. If I really agree to it today, I am afraid that I will spend the decades of my life in regret!

Thinking of this, a trace of clarity appeared in Chen Ziang's chaotic eyes. He cupped his hands towards Wang Meng and said, "Thanks to my lord's wrong love, Chen Ziang was overwhelmed by flattery, but there is a saying from ancient times: Loyal ministers don't care about two lords, I just hate that I didn't meet my lord in advance."

There was only a flash of disappointment on Wang Meng's face, and he said with a smile: "It's okay, the two envoys are on their way today, and I hope the friendship between Chu and Qin will last forever!"

"must!"

Chen Ziang cupped his hands, and Du Shenyan, who was standing on the side, couldn't help heaving a sigh of relief. He was really worried that Chen Ziang had agreed to Wang Meng's request.

Qin State urgently needed a stable rear now, even if Chen Ziang really agreed, Qin State could only choose to forget about it.

At that moment, everyone came to the tower, Wang Meng ordered the gate of the water city to be hoisted, and rowed a boat to send Wang Meng and Chen Ziang across the river.

The one-armed Yi Sun-shin stood on the high platform, watching the boat approaching slowly.

The soldiers of the state of Chu took the boat to the shore and said to Chen Zi'ang and Du Shenyan: "Two envoys, hurry up and go ashore, the villain will go back and return to order."

Du Shenyan made a slight gesture, and he and Chen Ziang went ashore. Before they could say anything to the soldier, the soldier quickly rowed towards the south bank.

"Haha! This guy is really timid." Chen Ziang couldn't help laughing.

Du Shenyan shook his head and said: "There was a shocking war that broke out here, and the water above the Yangtze River was stained red by the blood of the soldiers of the two countries. You, Chen Ziang, are here!"

"Oh? I heard that General Li (Lee Sun-shin)'s arm was chopped off by the Chu army during that station." Chen Ziang automatically ignored the last sentence.

"That's right! The general lost his arm during that station. General Wu Xiao died beside the general in that battle." A deep voice came over, it was Li Shunchen.

"I've seen the general!"

Du Shenyan and Chen Ziang saluted quickly.

"There is no need to be too polite." Li Shunchen nodded and said, "Just now the envoy said that Chu and Qin are blood feuds. This is true. There will be a bloody battle here in the future!"

Chen Ziang's thoughts turned quickly, he stepped forward quickly, cupped his hands and said: "As the general said, our Great Qin and the Kingdom of Chu are blood feuds. Although a certain person is not talented and is not a fierce general who will charge into the battle, he is willing to stay and serve for our Great Qin." bleed!"

"Huh?" Li Shunchen asked puzzledly: "You are an official of the Ministry of Officials, and you want to stay here, but you have the imperial edict from His Majesty the Emperor? You will only have the power to accept the command of the Commander-in-Chief. If you go up, then It’s not that the general can appoint and dismiss you, not to mention that you are an official appointed by the court, it’s not that the general can appoint and dismiss you at will.”

When Chen Ziang heard that Li Sunchen rejected him, he probably felt that he was just a frail scholar, and it was almost impossible to make meritorious service on the battlefield, so he said this.

"Don't worry, general, when I go back this time, I will make a request to His Majesty the Emperor, and then I will be able to kill the enemy and make meritorious service together with the realm on the battlefield!"

Li Sunchen didn't understand why this guy was so excited, he just cupped his hands, smiled, and didn't say much.

"It's a great joy for me to strike peace with Chu State. The two of you should return to the capital as soon as possible and report to His Majesty the Emperor."

"The general said yes, Chen Zi'ang, you and I still have the emperor's life, so we should go back and report to His Majesty the emperor!" Du Shenyan was a spectator, so he naturally understood what Li Shunchen was thinking.

"Exactly!" Chen Ziang immediately came to his senses after being told by Li Shunchen, and thought to himself that he was too impatient, why did he let such a low-level mistake go?

Immediately, the two bid farewell to Li Sunchen, and did not go to see Sima Yi again, so they went directly to the Mangrove Forest Army Camp and embarked on the journey back to the north from the sea.

In other words, Daqin's first imperial examination started perfectly, with a total of more than 2000 answer sheets collected.

Du Fu is now so busy that he doesn't have time to eat or sleep. He spends the whole day in Qianlong Hall, leading a large group of officials to correct the candidates' test papers.

According to the requirements of the emperor, they are divided into four grades, which are excellent, medium and poor.

Among them, the people of the two levels of excellence, the emperor will take time to meet these people in Qianlong Temple.

Those who are at the middle level will be interviewed by Shang Shulang who stayed behind in the capital.

The specifications of the two are completely different, and all the officials of the imperial court who correct the test papers will be extra careful.

People with these two grades of excellence will directly enter the power center of the court in the future, while people with these two grades of average will become the main local officials of Qin State.

However, the emperor's meaning was also very clear. Even a person of the level of excellent, if he wanted to enter the power center of the imperial court, he still needed to experience in the local area.

The emperor also stipulated that the political decisions of each locality need to be reported to the imperial court, and the imperial court will make decisions at the imperial court and cannot change them for at least ten years.

A person at the level of excellence needs to be an official at the top of the local government for three years, not to mention political achievements, first to see if he has made any serious mistakes.

This is the main way to select officials. Officials who can make achievements may not necessarily do well in the court.

For example, some innovations in later generations, to a large extent, not only did not make the family and country stronger, but instead made the court, which already had many shortcomings, become even more overwhelmed.

This point is not what Fusu wants to see in this society. He firmly believes that he will dominate the world in the future and establish an eternal dynasty.

But what if you die?

One's own dynasty is handed over to one's own son, and it is passed down from generation to generation. Not all people are like themselves, have foresight, and can predict the development trajectory of history.

Then you need to create a system by yourself, and the descendants of future generations will follow this system, even if your own court perishes after countless years, but as long as your own system can be passed down, this is the best.

Just like the evaluation of Qin Shihuang in history, many people say that Qin Shihuang is a tyrant, but no one can obliterate Qin Shihuang's achievements.

One of the biggest points is the emperor system and the county system!

With the development of history, the emperor system began to introduce the political stage, but the county system will not, it has always existed.

This is the greatness of Qin Shihuang.

Fusu is now the emperor and supreme, so he naturally hopes that the poets in the future can remember himself.

With a vision beyond this era and knowledge from thousands of years later, Fusu decided to bring the imperial examination system to this world in advance.

The early qualifying of the imperial examination system will completely change the development trajectory of the entire history, and what will also change with it is the social class.

In the pre-Qin period, knowledge was regarded as a symbol of nobility, and only nobles were qualified to learn knowledge, while the common people were not qualified to learn it.

As for the slave class, there is no need to think about it.

Changes in social classes followed, and the most fundamental changes occurred in the supplement of officials.

Before the imperial examination system appeared, the official system was largely hereditary.

Although the probation system has dominated the entire political system of China for a long time, the hereditary system is still fundamental.

What Fusu hopes to see is that the entire imperial court can develop towards advancement and civilization, and everything can be more reasonable.

Officials selected after the imperial examination should be transferred abroad for training, which should be set as a national policy.

The promotion of officials must put morality first, and this cannot be changed.

A virtuous but incompetent person ascends to power, even if he does nothing, it will not harm the people.

But if a person with talent but no virtue comes to power, the world will be disrupted that day.

Fusu faced Ying Wushuang with a serious face and explained these things to him.

At present, among all his sons, this is the one with the highest political attributes. If he is entrusted to inherit his throne, it will definitely be a very pleasant thing.

Although Ying Wudi was the first to be born, he could be counted as the eldest son, not the eldest son.

Therefore, if there are no accidents, this child will be the heir apparent of Great Qin, the future emperor!
"Father, my son has already remembered." Ying Wushuang reconciled, as long as Fusu said a lot of questions, he could remember them clearly.

"Invincible, do you remember?" Fusu put down the book in his hand, and looked up at Ying Wudi.

Ying Wudi raised his head when he heard Fusu's question, obviously lost his mind...

"Stretch out your palm!"

Fusu had a stern face, and he was so careless in explaining knowledge to him by himself. One can imagine what it would be like when other officials taught them knowledge.

Holding a piece of bamboo slips, Fusu walked up to Ying Wudi, and hit him hard once or three times!

"Do you know why I hit you?"
