Qin Shi Mingyue's infinite punch card

Chapter 397 Ye Chen's Imperial Examination System!
After listening to Ye Chen's narration, Ying Zheng couldn't help but have many thoughts in his mind.

Although what the other party said was relatively simple, the pattern of the imperial examination was presented before his eyes.If it can be implemented successfully, it will definitely be a huge change for Qin.

Even from a certain point of view, the emergence of the imperial examination system may have a greater impact than Shang Yang's reform.

The series of reforms implemented by Shang Yang at the beginning made Qin State a sharp weapon in war, rising from the borderlands, and gradually becoming a powerful country.

The effect of this reform is obvious, and it can be said that it is an important foundation for the strength of Qin.

But its influence is more manifested in the war-torn era, but now the Great Qin has ruled the world, and there are not so many battles to fight.

Naturally, there is no need to put all the focus on the military.

Compared with cultivating strong soldiers, it is more important now how to stabilize the people's hearts and develop all aspects of the country.

To put it simply, before the emphasis was on martial arts, but now it is Wenzhi that needs to be put first.

The imperial examination proposed by Ye Chen is entirely an unprecedented system for selecting officials.

It is conceivable that once this system is implemented, how many talents will emerge.

However, such an approach is tantamount to cutting off the nobles' monopoly on this aspect. It is conceivable that once those people know about this, they will definitely blow their hair.

But from another point of view, it is a good thing for him, the emperor, to be able to promote more people from poor families.

After all, those common people have no foundation, even if they are in a high position, they cannot threaten the ruler, which is more convenient for management.

After thinking about it for a while, Ying Zheng has decided to implement the imperial examination system, but there are still some things that need to be clarified.

Immediately, he looked at Ye Chen and asked: "I already know something about the imperial examination, but how does this matter relate to the question I mentioned earlier?"

Ye Chen said: "The imperial examination system has three main functions."

"One is to recruit more talents from all walks of life in the world and let them serve the empire.

The second is to win over the hearts and minds of the people all over the world.

For thousands of years, those official positions have always been controlled by powerful people, and it is difficult for ordinary poor people to stand out even if they have real talents.

And the imperial examination undoubtedly gave everyone a chance to jump over the dragon's gate, so wouldn't everyone in the world be grateful?
As long as all the people in the world think that you are really a good emperor, they will naturally accept the edicts issued.

Moreover, His Majesty can also add words and laws to the imperial examination questions. If the common people want to gain fame through this way, they must accept new culture and ideas.

In this way, won't your headaches be easily solved? "

Hearing this, Ying Zheng also nodded, agreeing in his heart, and then asked, "What about the third point?"

Ye Chen went up and took a few steps, and then said: "Everything has two sides, no matter what system it is, its essence is a kind of bondage.

For example, Shang Yang's reform, although it gave Daqin the invincible power, but it also neglected the people's livelihood because it put too much power on the army, which is a double-edged sword.

The imperial examinations seem to have given scholars a way out to prosperity, but in fact they are also tying many people to this system. "

Ying Zheng was also very interested in this statement, and immediately asked, "What do you mean by this statement?"

Ye Chen replied: "For example, we have a group of hounds around us, although we are temporarily overwhelmed, they may still pounce on us at any time.

To keep it from hurting us, the best thing to do is to throw a bone and let all the hounds scramble for it.In this way, their aggressiveness will be diverted, and no further incidents will occur. "

Speaking of this, he paused slightly, and then continued: "The people are very simple, as long as there is a way out, they will not do anything out of the ordinary."

After the words fell, Ying Zheng also understood the meaning of the other party's words.

The significance of the imperial examination is not only to select talents, but also to point out a direction for the people of the world.

Let everyone work hard towards one place, and make it a lifelong pursuit.

When people have something to do, they will have pursuits and sustenance in their hearts, and they will naturally settle down.

Although there must be only a small number of people who can be selected in the end, it is that little hope that will attract countless people to rush upwards desperately. This is the human heart.

Why do people in the world rebel?

In essence, the interests of most people have been harmed.

However, the imperial examination system gave the common people the opportunity to soar into the sky.

Under such circumstances, anyone who wants to pass the imperial examination to become a master will definitely maintain this system, and while maintaining this system, he is actually protecting the upper-level leaders who implement this system.

In this way, the Great Qin Empire will naturally become more stable.

Looking at the former's reaction, Ye Chen knew that he would definitely agree to the proposal.

The imperial examination system is far from perfect. As he said before, this is actually a relatively benign constraint.

Even in essence, it is also a way to maintain the authority of the ruler.

And as a time traveler, he knew that once this system was implemented, how many people would devote themselves to it like moths to a flame.

In the end, the person who can really succeed by relying on this road is probably one in a thousand.Most people have the dream of being an official and lord, and then spend their whole lives on it.

But there is no way, the nature of today's society is like this.A country that has just stepped into feudalism cannot afford a more advanced system.

The foundation of the current Great Qin is not solid enough, what is needed is a sufficiently stable order.

From this aspect, the imperial examination system is undoubtedly very suitable, and it can even be regarded as advanced.

After all, no matter how many shortcomings it has, the imperial examination does provide more people with opportunities to show themselves.Let the common people have the possibility to become princes and generals, which in itself is a huge progress.

Moreover, the emergence of imperial examinations is of great help to the current problems facing Qin.

If Yingzheng wants to implement the text and the law, then he can make a fuss about the content of the imperial examination.

For example, it can be announced that anyone who wants to take part in the imperial examination must first be able to write beautiful Qin seal characters and be familiar with the laws of the Qin State, otherwise you will not even be able to pass the provincial examination.

Under such circumstances, those who want fame and wealth will immediately immerse themselves in the study of Qin Zhuan and laws.

The world is full of hustle and bustle, and everything is for profit. For most people, as long as they have enough benefits, there is nothing they can't do...
