There were many things that Jiang Yuesheng could not say to Chu Qingming.
Moreover, Jiang Yuesheng was a bit stupid. He wanted Chu Qing to know not to care too much about Chang Chenghui, but he couldn't say it directly, looking embarrassed.
Chu Qing didn't think much about it and waved his hand: "Let's not mention this matter. Let's talk about the imperial examination first. The imperial examination will be held after the Chinese New Year. How can we prevent Ying people from taking the imperial examination?"
"This matter was under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Rites. Zhang Songling, who was still the left minister of the Ministry of Rites at that time, wrote a petition, and the Supreme Emperor agreed that Ying people could study in the Imperial College."
"The imperial examination was already in vain, and it's really screwed to allow Ying people to join the court as officials."
Chu Qing smiled bitterly.
Regarding the imperial examination, Chu Qing had quite complicated thoughts.
The imperial examination was very similar to the civil service examination in later generations. In ancient China, this method of selecting talents had already matured. But abroad, let’s say France. It was only gradually established after the Great Revolution. In China, the above-mentioned method has already appeared.
Thousands of years, foreign countries are only about two hundred years old in modern times, and they are more than one step ahead.
It's a pity that something was a good thing, but it was ruined by others.
Just like the current Chang Dynasty, those who participated in the imperial examinations were all sons of aristocratic families, entering a state of mind-numbing circulation.
Aristocratic families monopolize resources, let their descendants take part in the imperial examinations, and then serve as officials in the court, and then help their own families seek benefits. The cycle goes on and on. Slowly, a country is eroded, gradually collapsed, and eventually disappeared into history.
.
Looking at the secret letter and bamboo slips on the desk, Chu Qing suddenly discovered that there seemed to be many problems, but in fact there was only one problem - the aristocratic family!
There were constant conflicts in the northern border. The border troops were all brave men, but they could not go deep into the grassland to completely quell the Liang Rong because they had no money.
There is no money in the treasury, tax inspections are required, and the harvest is very small, because the noble family obstructs it.
Why should the aristocratic family obstruct it? They should rely on their disciples and old officials. These disciples and old officials are the talkers in each government office and the talkers in various state governments.
It is these words that interfere with people's affairs, which lead to the failure of government orders and the suffering of the people.
The people are suffering and have no food to eat. Who can create wealth and who can join the army?
If you can't join the army and still fight a fart war, if you can't fight the war, the foreign enemies will think about invading the land of Dachang Dynasty all day long.
Everything, everything, seems to be related to aristocratic families. It is these aristocratic families, these so-called elites, who revitalize one dynasty and then destroy another dynasty, again and again.
Chu Qing rubbed his temples. The most disgusting thing is that the aristocratic family also interfered in the affairs of the Ministry of War and always wanted civil servants to overpower the generals. In fact, there has been a situation where civil servants suppress military officers.
When the army goes out to fight, not only the civil servants supervising the army, but also the commanders of each camp are constantly changing.
This is the right thing to do, to prevent the army from only knowing the commander but not the emperor.
But in fact, too many examples from later generations prove that this method does more harm than good.
Soldiers are impermanent and commanders are impermanent. Generals are constantly changing. Just take the Song Dynasty. No country in the world has more standing armies than the Song Dynasty.
As a result, the Song Dynasty was beaten all over the ground by the Mongols, from the Northern Song Dynasty to the Southern Song Dynasty, and finally to various punishments.
"Aristocratic family, aristocratic family." Chu Qing scratched the back of his head and showed a helpless smile.
In the past, he had never considered this kind of thing. It was enough to take care of himself and the people around him, do his own thing well, and do the things of the people around him well.
But in recent days, after learning about the situation of Honglu Temple and the aristocratic family, Chu Qing always felt angry in his heart.
This kind of fire has happened before, but I always know that this fire can be set off and extinguished.
But now Chu Qing felt extremely powerless in his heart.
He couldn't tell others what horrifying things the Ying people would do thousands of years from now.
He couldn't tell others how stupid it was to use culture to suppress force.
He couldn't even tell others that Confucianism was correct, but the family that spread Confucianism tried to make people become weak lambs.
What made Chu Qing most helpless was that he knew that Chang Chao would definitely be doomed if he did not change.
Today's aristocratic families have slowly turned their courtiers into disgusting rice pails. If this goes on for a long time, the Chang Dynasty will fight internally and externally. It will be a lamb in front of a warrior, and a warrior in front of a lamb.
Standing up, Chu Qing looked at Jiang Yuesheng: "I want to deal with Yu Tianlun, the Yu family, and the Jingzhong family. Starting today, I will declare war. Can you...can you help me?"
Jiang Yuesheng smiled slightly.
It’s not me who helps you, but you who help the emperor and those like us who want to revitalize the prosperous dynasty to create a prosperous world!
Seeing Jiang Yuesheng's smile, Chu Qing stretched out his hand out of habit, wanting to shake the other person's hand, a handshake between men, an agreement between men.
Jiang Yuesheng was stunned for a moment, then took out a piece of naan bread from his waist and placed it in Chu Qing's hand uncertainly.
Chu Qing: "..."
Jiang Yuesheng: "There is half a chicken in the backyard."
Fu San: "I'm going to stew."
…………
Prince Yong's Mansion, main hall.
Chang Chenghui, who looked pale, always rubbed his knees subconsciously.
My knees hurt a lot.
The kick that the Supreme Emperor gave him back then caused him great pain, and it will hurt him until the day he dies.
After receiving that kick, he lost the right to participate in the competition, and it had nothing to do with him to win the title of heir, and even the title of prince had nothing to do with him.
Huang Laosi is very bad, he is bad, he is bad.
After he ascended the throne, Lao Si gave him another title, King Yong.
You must know that there are only seven prince titles in the Zheng'er Ba Jing of the Dachang Dynasty, which are canonized according to the seven countries of the Warring States Period, that is, the seven regions, Qi, Chu, Yan, Han, Zhao, Wei, Qin, and the Seven Kings.
It was also a coincidence that the Supreme Emperor's generation had eight male heirs, and apart from the prince, there were exactly seven left.
There are also eight people in Huang Laosi's generation. Apart from the prince, there are still seven left.
Seven princes from two generations originally had the title of prince.
As for King Yong, he was originally a "wild king", not a prince.
When the Dachang Dynasty first came into being, the founding emperor divided among the meritorious officials and gave them many princely titles. Among them, King Yong was extremely funny.
The first generation of King Yong was a general. He was invincible in all battles and made great contributions to the founding of the emperor. The emperor appreciated his contribution and even made a decree so that the title of King Yong could be passed on to future generations, instead of decreasing from generation to generation.
After a few generations, he became a commoner, but the son inherited the title of King Yong, the son inherited the title of grandson, and the grandson inherited the title of great-grandson.
But at that time, the first generation King Muyong had several children. The eldest was the eldest son's direct grandson. He could inherit after the death of the first generation. However, the second child was jealous and wanted to assassinate the eldest son. At the same time, he also coerced his elderly father, who was the first generation.
, and asked his old father to pass on the title of King Yong to him.
In the end, the situation was similar to that of Chang Chenghui, like a clown who didn't get anything.
Therefore, the title of King Yong is very funny. The emperor did not give other titles to him, so he gave it to King Yong. Anyone who hears it will know that this is the fourth child deliberately insulting the second child.
Chang Chenghui was most taboo about this matter. He was taboo about others calling him King Yong.
Yongwang Changchenghui was only in his forties, and his face seemed a bit indistinguishable from male to female. This was probably due to the fact that he had been pampered by the royal wives since he was a child. His temperament was also very feminine, but his complexion was extremely pale, and he looked like he was drunk.
The appearance of hollowing out the body.
"Zhenghe." Chang Chenghui knocked on his aching knee and called out Yu Tianlun's "word".
"Your Highness." Yu Tianlun looked distressed, walked forward, knelt on the ground, and gently rubbed the affected area of Chang Chenghui's knee.
"This man is called Chu Qing." Chang Chenghui stroked Yu Tianlun's face: "I, the king, will help you get rid of him."
