Qin Shi Mingyue Taoist Master Uncle

Ying Zheng nodded slightly, "That's right, no matter what the repeated orders, there are many people who are unwilling to learn Qinzhuan and Lishu, and still use the original script. I can't force all the scripts into other people's heads, or get them. kill them all?"

"Nowadays, the same text can only be practiced in public places. What kind of words those people use in private is beyond my control."

"And if words and laws cannot be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, then the hearts of the people must be scattered."

"No one can shake the Great Qin Empire when I'm around, but if I'm not around, those ghosts and monsters hiding in the dark will definitely jump out."

"At that time, if the hearts of the people are still unable to support Qin, then the entire empire will face the danger of collapse."

Therefore, he must gather the hearts of the people in the world and leave a stable country in his lifetime.

Thinking of this, Qinzheng sighed softly. Although he is an emperor, there are also things that he can't do.

Hearing these words, Bei Chen smiled. He had expected such a problem a long time ago, so he thought about countermeasures in his spare time.

Looking at the former, he said, "Your Majesty, such a thing cannot be accomplished overnight. And it is not advisable to use too much force, otherwise it will only backfire and arouse the resistance of the people of the six countries."

After hearing this, Ying Zheng knew that the other party must have a countermeasure, and asked, "What do you think, you might as well just say it."

Bei Chen said, "As the saying goes, attacking the city is the bottom, and attacking the heart is the top. It is much more difficult to conquer the hearts of the people than to conquer the cities of the Six Kingdoms."

"In my opinion, instead of trying to force the people of the original six countries to accept new things, it is better to let them take the initiative to learn the laws and characters of Qin."

"Then how should we do it?" Ying Zheng asked again.

Beichen raised his eyebrows slightly, and spit out two words "imperial examination."

Hearing this new term, Ying Zheng also became interested, and then asked, "What is the imperial examination?"

Bei Chen replied, "Talent is the basis for a country's development. During the Zhou Dynasty, there was a system of seniority and wealth, and later evolved methods of selecting talents such as recommendation."

"Afterwards, I founded the Tiandao Academy, so that more people have the opportunity to learn and be promoted."

"And the imperial examination just mentioned is also a way to select talents and officials, but it is more accurate to call this way a system."

Hearing this, Ying Zheng looked at Bei Chen and motioned him to continue talking.

Beichen said, "In short, the imperial examination is a way of passing the examination to carry out large-scale public selection."

"Nowadays, Daqin abolished enfeoffment and adopted the system of prefectures and counties, which can just promote the implementation of the imperial examination system."

Ying Zheng said, "Then how should we proceed?"

Beichen replied, "As for the specific implementation of the imperial examination system, we can conduct graded assessments according to the grades of the regions."

"For example, the imperial examination can be divided into four levels, the provincial examination, the county examination, the county examination, and the palace examination."

"As the name suggests, the township examinations are held in their respective townships. County officials will give questions, and then those who want to take part in the imperial examination will go to a fixed place to take the test. Those with better scores can go to the county to take the county examination. "

"By analogy, those with excellent results in the county examination can go to the county to participate in the next round of assessment. Those who pass the county examination are basically very rare talents. Such people can come to Xianyang to participate in the final palace test."

"The winner of the palace examination, even if you look at the whole country, will definitely not be an ordinary person."

"For such people, His Majesty can entrust them with important tasks. As for the remaining candidates, they can also be assigned to other positions according to the results of the assessment."

"In this way, everyone can be distinguished according to their abilities, and better talents and more capable officials can be selected for Daqin."

After hearing these words, Ying Zheng's heart was also slightly shaken.He didn't expect that the other party's idea was so huge that it directly enveloped the entire country.

Although the imperial examination system appears to be a way of selecting talented people on the surface, its actual meaning is a revolution.

Compared with Shang Yang's reform, it is not much inferior to the reform.

You must know that whether it is the Shang and Zhou Dynasties or the Warring States Period, most of those official positions are in the hands of aristocratic families.

Although it is possible to make recommendations, how many of those officials recommend will be civilians, and basically they are all people who have a good relationship with themselves.

So in general, the resources and the path of advancement are still in the hands of the nobles.

It wasn't until the rise of the Tiandao Academy that those poor families had the hope of getting ahead.

But after all, it is just a school, no matter how advanced the system is, it is impossible to have too much influence on the whole country.

The current imperial examination is different. It can be implemented nationwide, and both nobles and commoners can participate.

And once you have achieved excellent results in the county examination or palace examination, you will definitely be able to soar into the sky and gain honor, wealth and status.

From the perspective of Yingzheng, it can be seen that this imperial examination system will truly disintegrate the monopoly of nobles on official career...

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

After listening to Bei 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 even be said to be 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.
