"Oh? Then I don't want to hear it either." Zhao Chen said casually.
Zhao Chen didn’t know what Old Li was asking in front of him?
From the village chief, he knew that these ordinary people had no chance to participate in the imperial examination at all, so Lao Li's face was not very good-looking.
The fool also knows why.
At this time, Mr. Li said he wanted to ask himself a question. What else can I do besides this?
But what does this issue have to do with him, Zhao Chen?
Since there is no way to participate in the imperial examination, then don’t participate.
Anyway, I live a pretty good life now.
The five surnames and seven hopes are inextricably linked.
The saint today is a branch of the Li family in Longxi, and belongs to one of the five surnames.
The Tang Dynasty royal family is one of the five surnames and seven hopes.
Could it be that today's saints have pushed their foundation?
It is meaningless to discuss this matter with Lao Li.
This old man Li is not good at Sichuan businessmen, but he always thinks about some things.
"You!" Li Shimin was about to say to Zhao Chen, but he didn't expect that Zhao Chen would directly reject him.
And said such uncomfortable words.
It's really annoying.
"I said, Mr. Li, there are some things that we can't discuss. If you want to die, please don't bring me and aunt with you. The rest of the people will be harmed by you, okay?" Zhao Chen's subsequent words almost made Li Shimin a little
Go wild.
Li Ruoshuang looked at Zhao Chen and felt that Zhao Chen was much scarier than him.
He actually dared to tell His Majesty that he was seeking death.
I thought to myself that this is the ancestor who is not afraid of death.
My little arms and legs are really far from comparable to those of me.
Hongfu Nu looked at Zhao Chen with shock on her face, and then at Li Shimin. She knew that at this time, she would better not talk nonsense.
I had to eat with my head stuffed, but my ears stood up and observed the movements.
Empress Changsun almost swallowed the rice at that time.
This guy really dares to say anything.
Seeing that Li Shimin was about to go wild, Empress Changsun quickly put down the bowls and chopsticks, and said to Zhao Chen with a smile: "Zhao Chen, my aunt is also curious about what your uncle wants to ask. Why don't you and I listen first? How about it?"
After saying that, Empress Changsun quietly pulled Li Shimin and signaled him not to get angry.
Zhao Chen looked up, glanced at Empress Changsun, sighed softly, and said, "Let me tell me."
Li Shimin's throat seemed to be blocked in an instant.
Even Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling and others dare not say it to themselves. Let’s hear such things.
Could it be that I am so unparalleled here?
However, for the sake of Empress Changsun, Zhao Chen did not know his identity, and his thoughts on how to know Zhao Chen's opinion.
Li Shimin still said reluctantly: "As you said, the people of the Tang Dynasty have no chance to go on the imperial examination?"
"If you don't believe it, you can ask someone for advice?" Zhao Chen said lightly.
"Hey, it's not right. You are not a saint today. What does this have to do with you?" Zhao Chen asked tentatively.
"Your aunt, I have some connections in the court, and we also want the children at home to go on a career." Empress Changsun was shocked, but she explained to Zhao Chen very calmly.
Li Shimin glanced at Empress Changsun and thought to himself that she was quick-minded.
Otherwise, Zhao Chen would really be tested out.
Zhao Chen was just asking, and Empress Changsun’s answer was not flawed.
This matter was revealed.
"Will a saint lose a lot of capable people like this?" Li Shimin looked at Zhao Chen.
He knew he could not act too eager.
"The five surnames and seven hopes want to maintain their status and power, so naturally they don't want too many people at the bottom to make a breakthrough."
"Even some geniuses are going to be taken over by them." Zhao Chen swallowed a mouthful of rice and said casually.
"So what is the way to solve this problem?" Li Shimin asked slowly.
Although I was quite anxious, my face was extremely calm.
Zhao Chen frowned and thought to himself that this old head Li was really boring and he was so delving into it.
"Don't worry, no one else knows what you said except us." Li Shimin saw the worry in Zhao Chen's heart and hurriedly said.
Several people nodded repeatedly.
"Okay, let's talk to you." Zhao Chen knew that he couldn't escape and nodded reluctantly.
When Li Shimin reached out to grab the teacup beside him, he had already taken the initiative to hand it over to Zhao Chen.
Zhao Chen nodded with satisfaction and thought to himself that Old Li was a person with vision.
Queen Changsun's face turned black.
How could I please my son so much?
And I am also the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.
However, Empress Changsun did not speak, and she was also curious about how amazing Zhao Chen would say.
"Tsk——" Zhao Chen smacked his lips and put down the cup with pleasure on his face.
"The five surnames and seven hopes are the heroes of the establishment of the Tang Dynasty. It is obviously impossible to get rid of them completely, unless it is a change of dynasty. After all, even the Tang Dynasty royal family is the Li clan of Longxi." Zhao Chen said.
Li Shimin nodded.
The five surnames and seven hopes are in control of the court, so Li Shimin naturally has deep feelings.
If it was really that easy, how could he tolerate someone in the court competing with him?
Now he is more looking forward to what Zhao Chen will say next.
At least Zhao Chen is not talking nonsense with him. Maybe there is really a way to solve this problem.
"The reason why the five surnames and seven hopes can control the imperial examination is nothing more than a recommendation system. I don't know which recommendation system is thought out by a little brain. Only by recommending a fifth-rank official can you be qualified to participate in the imperial examination."
"Those who come up with this system are afraid that they will have to eat their brains. If they really think of a fifth-rank official, they are not officials." Zhao Chen cursed.
Queen Changsun next to her covered her mouth and chuckled.
She knew that this system was created by Li Shimin herself.
The country was unstable at that time, so this was also to avoid some chaos.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Chen is so funny now.
Li Shimin didn't speak with a dark face.
If I start a counterattack at this time, I will definitely fight back to Zhao Chen again.
Li Shimin had almost figured out Zhao Chen's temper.
This kid obviously just wants to be soft but not hard.
"If I know who came up with such a bastard system, I will definitely kick him hard." Zhao Chen cursed again, as if very dissatisfied.
"Maybe - ahem, I mean maybe, the people who came up with this system are also considering the current situation." Li Shimin for some reason, but at this moment he was so guilty.
Could it be that this kid really dares to touch my butt?
No, he really dares!
Li Shimin felt a little hurt in his teeth.
"In addition to this recommendation system, there can be another examination system." Zhao Chen and Li Shimin said.
"Exam system? The imperial examination is the exam." Li Shimin looked at Zhao Chen strangely.
I didn't understand for a moment.
"The two are different." Zhao Chen shook his head.
"The exam I mean is to start with a child, enroll in a unified manner, and then take the provincial examination six years later."
"If you pass the provincial examination, study for another three years and take the county examination."
"If you pass the county examination, study for another three years and take the state examination."
"Then the saints came to see their virtues, conduct, words, and talents. The recommended persons, regardless of their name, were personally faced by the saints."
"If it fails, it will be removed."
"In this way, we will not meet the five surnames and seven hopes, but will also attract talents from all over the world. Even those who are recommended will be grateful to the saints for their kindness."
