Chapter 563
The top scholar parades in the streets is much more lively this year than last year. The people of Jinyang are waiting in the street just to see what the top scholar is like. As a result, they really saw that Tanhua stole the top scholar's limelight.
Female Tanhua? At first I thought it was a handsome man, but who knew that it was a wife after looking closely!
It’s strange that for so many years, no woman has ever been an official. Could it be that women can also take the imperial examination? Women can pass the examination and become Jinshi and become officials?
For a time, the daughters of many wealthy families in Jinyang naturally began to revitalize. The fate of many of them was probably to marry men from other families as marriage partners when they grew up.
Now that there is an extra way out and even the opportunity to control one's own destiny, I naturally don't want to miss it.
The old fathers who came out with their daughter also realized this and were a little annoyed. They originally planned to bring their daughter out to see which Jinshi was attracted to them and find a way to catch them home as son-in-law. Now, the daughter was afraid that she would already have the idea of taking the imperial examination.
There are really few people who agree, mainly because they are worried that if their daughter becomes an official, how should the son-in-law deal with themselves? Especially in the future, the daughter's official position will be higher than that of the son-in-law, so where can this put the son-in-law's face?
Therefore, if others have concerns, divorce or dare not marry, what should I do? Looking at my daughter who is very excited, I suddenly feel troubled!
Of course, there are also people who shout "The hen is in the morning". There is a warning for those who have fame and fortune. Those who have no fame are prohibited from participating in the imperial examination.
When asked why, your Majesty told me that those who passed the imperial examinations by others who passed the imperial examinations based on their abilities, or who failed the imperial examinations, would be embarrassed to complain here. Such people who disrespect women, have no talent and are not knowledgeable, and are arrogant and arrogant, cannot afford to be considered by the Han Dynasty, and they will seek other places to seek other places.
The shameless ones, after hearing these words, almost ran away in shame... As for the shameless ones, hehe.
"At first I thought that the imperial examination was just to change the standards for selecting scholars; later I realized that it was possible to cultivate literati on my own side." When Lu Zhi and Cai Yong had a private gathering, he sighed, "I only now know that the imperial examination was a powerful tool in the hands of His Majesty, which could be used to eliminate dissidents."
The imperial examination only has a list and no results. The exam paper is not public, so there is too much room for operation.
As long as they are willing, Lu Lingqi and Huang Wudie cannot even pass the exam. In contrast, no matter how bad the grades are, as long as the official cheats, it is possible that the two of them will become the top scorer and the second scorer directly.
For example, this time, Cui Lin obviously deserves the third place, but he didn't want His Majesty to issue an order to let Lu Lingqi get the third place. Of course, no female Jinshi, which is even more sensational. Unfortunately, Cui Lin, who was originally from Tanhua...
Taking advantage of the female Tanhua, Liu Tao tested the reaction of the scholars and suppressed a group of people. Next time there will be women taking the imperial examination, it is hard for everyone to say anything.
The official is right. Why don’t people not become officials if you pass the imperial examination based on your real talent? As a man, someone else’s woman passed the imperial examination but you failed. What qualifications do you have to laugh at others?
But the problem is that how many women can be given to become Jinshi can actually be operated in secret. Those who truly know the inside story naturally know that the imperial examination was actually unfair from the beginning.
It is a weapon to control scholars in the hands of the emperor, and it is a powerful weapon! No wonder Liu Tao has always wanted to improve the value of the imperial examination. The value represents recognition. The higher the recognition, the more beneficial it is to control public opinion!
"So others are Your Majesty..." Cai Yong smiled faintly, "If you only rely on magic, then at most it will be awe. When awe reaches a certain level, then he will become the opposite of the world."
Even if Liu Tao masters the magic of destroying the world, it doesn’t make any sense. The main reason is that this magic is in the hands of people, everyone will be worried. If Liu Tao gets drunk or is unhappy, he just fires it in the city and causes tens of thousands of casualties, how should he calculate it?
Human beings like to rely on the strong, but they definitely don’t like to succumb to monsters. When Liu Tao really learns to learn how to shoot with meteors or the doomsday judgment, he will become a monster that is afraid of and wishes to get rid of it.
After Liu Tao ascended the throne, he devoted himself to internal affairs. He made the lives of the people better and proved himself that he not only had magic but also had the ability to make everyone live a good life.
Why the additional exam question is "Jinyang Wenxue" further emphasizes this point: he has been working hard for it.
Nowadays, those compositions are still outside the examination room, and people passing by can see them. What changes have happened in Jinyang over the years and what these changes have brought to them, and they can see them at a glance.
"The next court meeting... Your Majesty may have to go to war with the outside world. Where do you think he would choose?" Lu Zhi picked up the tea cup and took a sip. Nowadays, the fermentation technology is getting more and more sophisticated, and the taste of black tea is getting better and better.
It is said that there are several good tea producing areas in Jiangnan. Unfortunately, the road problem is that the price will triple when transported here. Even if there is good tea, it will become a luxury product.
On the side of the Han Dynasty, according to the new tax law, the tax on luxury goods is very high.
The final result is that the price of good tea will be further increased, and even wealthy people cannot afford to drink it.
"The greatest possibility is the Huns, but that is not considered a battle. The one country, two systems proposed by His Majesty itself was prepared for the Huns." Cai Yong replied.
The Huns didn't have many war soldiers, and they only had 30,000 to 50,000. The troops of Liangzhou, Sizhou and Bingzhou surrounded them. They seemed to have no way out except surrender. They could finish the battle in more than ten days at most, and they didn't even need to fight. This could be considered a war?
"Maybe I'll go there by the way, and I can't keep it there. Those two counties were originally the territory of the Han Dynasty, and they can't always bring disaster to others." Lu Zhi sighed, "If you fight directly and destroy it, you will kill those who are not convinced. What kind of thing is one country, two systems, and you will do this in one way or another..."
After being promoted by Liu Tao for so many years, Lu Zhi also began to have some awareness of ethnic and national territoriality. In addition, the Han Dynasty's attitude towards the Hu people and was a little dissatisfied with Liu Tao's gentle actions.
With the current military strength of the Han court, why should we appease the past?
"Your Majesty's one country, two systems strategy is not prepared for the Huns, but for the Qiang people, Xianbei, Wuhuan and barbarians. The Huns are just experimental subjects of this system, let's see what needs to be adjusted." Cai Yong is worthy of being the prime minister of the Secretariat and has a clear understanding of it.
"Since it's not a fight against the Huns, who can I fight? Yuan Shu or Zhang Chao, or Jin?" Lu Zhi further asked. His coming this time was actually Tantan's mouth.
The biggest problem at this stage is probably the lack of officials. As the Minister of Personnel, Lu Zhi also has a headache.
