Chapter 536 Jin Si Wen Ji
Zhao Yiming has been living a very comfortable life during this period. Every day he is either flirting with his lover or eating and drinking with his friends.
Anyway, the Daxin Demon Planting Technique is constantly running for you, and your proficiency is increasing little by little, so you don't need to worry about it at all, and why do you need to be so tired?
On this day, he was invited by Jin Sixiang to go out to see the scenery outside the city. It must be said that this scholar is really interesting, and he can actually think of having a picnic.
But after Zhao Yiming came here with him, he knew that things were definitely not that simple, because this time only the two of them were watching the scenery.
For those who don’t know, they might think that these two grown men have some special hobbies, and they want to have sex in this beautiful place, all over the place.
He coughed lightly and said, "Master Jin invited me here, didn't he just want me to look at the flowers, birds, fish and insects?"
Jin Si chuckled and said, "Young Master Zhao is indeed a discerning person, so I won't talk in circles with you. My father is very interested in the imperial examination system you proposed in Huainan.
He wanted to implement it in our Empire of the Rising Sun, but you also know that he was not the only one who had the final say in the Confucian sect. There were many old men, and there was great resistance during this period.
I wonder if there is any way to implement the imperial examination system while still taking into account the interests of these old guys and making them loyal supporters! "
Zhao Yiming sat in the pavilion, picked up the wine glass and took a sip and said: "What do I think it is? It's really too simple. The key depends on whether you know how to adapt. Tell me the fundamental reason why those old guys are against it." What is it?"
Jin thought for a while and said: "It should be that they are stubborn and have deep-rooted family prejudices, so they cannot accept new ideas."
Zhao Yiming shook his head and said: "You are wrong to think so. If it is really because of the sect's opinion, then why do they need to accept those disciples from poor families as disciples? All the major academies just don't recruit disciples from poor families.
People in this world are coming and going, and the so-called is nothing more than fame and fortune. They now have a monopoly on the entire upper echelon, and all officials are from their disciples, so they can bring them enough fame and benefits.
However, with the implementation of the imperial examination system, many children from poor families in the countryside often became famous, and these children had nothing to do with them, which made them feel very faceless. "
Jin Wei listened to Zhao Yiming's words simultaneously through the sound transmission stone. He nodded with deep understanding. He did not expect that this boy could see the problem so thoroughly at such a young age.
Zhao Yiming continued: "As long as you can satisfy the interests of these old guys, and even allow these interests to be further developed, then even if you want to implement the imperial examination, these old guys will stop doing it.
And you are different from Huainan. After all, Huainan is just a state. This decree is like bullshit wherever it comes from, so you can only implement the most basic things.
But your father is not only the current prime minister, but also the leader of the Confucian sect of the Empire of the Rising Sun. It can be said that what he said has a certain weight not only in the Empire of the Rising Sun, but also in the entire Shenwu Continent. "
After Jin Wei heard this, he felt very relieved, because he was not in front of him, which was completely equivalent to the other party talking behind his back, and yet he could respect him so much. Zhao Yiming's status in his heart jumped up a few levels.
Zhao Yiming said with a smile: "I wonder if you have noticed the changes in the Confucian sect of Fanxing Empire. Zhou Huizhong's status is far different from your father, but he changed the Confucian classics and emphasized the word "loyalty", and now he is in Fengsheng Water rises.
If your father has such a high status, if you revise the Confucian classics, I think no one will say anything else. Since someone has already mentioned the Chinese character, you can improve it and win the favor of the emperor.
Since there is loyalty, there must be filial piety, and respecting teachers is also one of the filial piety. The focus of the imperial examination system is on one exam. For all candidates, the examiner is equivalent to their second teacher.
Therefore, we can require that after completing the major exam, all candidates must come to thank the examiner and perform the courtesy of teacher and student.
This also means that all the candidates in the same session are the disciples of several examiners. If there are a few fierce people in this session, do you think these examiners, who are their teachers, will have something on their faces? Light.
For a Confucian scholar, how many disciples can he teach in his lifetime? How many registered disciples can he accept as an examiner? Which of these can enhance his reputation more?
At the same time, your father should also formulate Confucian rules. For example, on certain fixed days, students should pay homage to their teachers. When the teacher dies, students should go and pay homage in person.
When the time comes, think about it, you are just the leader of an academy, but on that day, the prime minister of the day will come to see you in person and treat you with the courtesy of a teacher. What an honor it is.
For these people who have no chance to set foot in the court, letting them become examiners will be a great improvement to their reputation. When the time comes, they will not want to get into it as if they are sharpening their heads.
As for those Confucian scholars who serve as officials in the court, and those candidates who have achieved fame after passing the examination, their power will definitely be weak at this point, and they must find a few big brothers. What is more reliable than the relationship between teachers and students!
At that time, because they are all registered disciples of the same examiner, these candidates will naturally belong to the brothers, and they will easily form a faction, and the examiner will be the leader of this faction, which will bring benefits.
And for emperors, what they care about most is that their subordinates are monolithic. Nowadays, interest groups of various sizes are formed to check and balance each other. What else can they not enjoy?
Therefore, after the interests of all parties are formed, they will become a community, and the imperial examination system is the link connecting this community. If someone rises up to oppose it, they are really asking for death. "
Jin Si felt dizzy after hearing this, but Jin Wei nodded in praise and couldn't help but think to himself: "Why is this kid not my son? He should be like Zhao Yiming when he gives birth to a son. If my son is half as capable as someone else, he can laugh even in his dreams." Awake."
Zhao Yiming coughed slightly and said: "By then, as the originator of the word filial piety, your father's status in the Confucian sect will definitely rise. Even if he is not as good as the ancient sages, he will at least be famous in history."
The Jin family's father and son were both bright and dark, but their eyes were all wide-eyed. Being famous in history is the dream of all Confucian scholars. How could this not make them excited.
However, Zhao Yiming immediately let out a long sigh and looked like he was hesitating to speak.
