Chapter 136 Candidate
"Yes! It's just to take a course! At present, there are many scholars in our jurisdiction, and we also need to recruit officials for me now! Aren't these scholars going to be officials one day after years of reading at night? If we don't use it, won't it be a waste?
At present, we only rely on us to visit talented people and choose the best. There are always omissions, and it is likely that many talents will be buried, so this is not a long-term plan. At present, the conditions are basically mature! I think it's better to start the trial from Huguang side first! It was held in Wuchang Prefecture before this year to recruit a group of virtuous people and give them officials for my own use! If the effect is good, it will be implemented in other places in the future!" Xiao Tianjian said his plan.
Li Jinde's excited hands trembling a little. He quickly got up and knelt down and kowtowed to Xiao Tianjian and said, "I'm on behalf of the world's scholars, thank the lord!" Thank you for your grace! This is a great thing!"
In fact, I don't think Li Jinde and others have defected to Xiao Tianjian, but they still hope that Xiao Tianjian can open a way for the world's scholars. Even if they were not ambitious at the beginning, they also know that it is not easy to study. Many scholars have been studying hard for more than ten years or even decades. What they want is to have a tomorrow. Ri Neng shines his ancestors and stands out, but many of them do not have the opportunity to become officials, but at least the court still has to recruit a group of people as officials every few years, which always makes scholars have a head start. Now Xiao Tianjian has created the opposite of the court. At present, it seems that Xiao Tianjian is basically ready to win the world, and In the future, Xiao Tianjian will treat these scholars in the world. Obviously, before that, he was still a fan. On the one hand, they also saw that Xiao Tianjian wanted to rely on his own strength to cultivate a group of talents to govern the place for him. On the other hand, they also saw Xiao Tianjian deliberately looking for some celebrities or talents in various places. The scholar came out as an official, and even did not hesitate to condescend to persuade some captured officials to serve him. This time, when he passed through Runing Mansion, he saw Gao Doushu, the old official of the current dynasty, who had just taken office in Runing Mansion, in Runing Mansion, and knew that Xiao Tianjian was now said to be eager for talents.
But when he came here this time, he didn't expect that the first thing Xiao Tianjian said was to start a scholar. In this way, they don't have to worry about the way out of the scholars after Xiao Tianjian seizes the world in the future. This is really the same. No matter who is in charge of the world, they are still inseparable from scholars. ! Therefore, Li Jinde was quite happy after hearing this.
At the same time, what makes him happier is that although Xiao Tianjian has not yet claimed to be the king now, from the perspective of Xiao Tianjian's intention to open a scholar to meet the needs of officials, at least Xiao Tianjian is not far from this day. Once Xiao Tianjian comes to the world one day, then these people will also become famous. After the name of the thief on his body, he can laugh at his ancestors! This can be said to be the happiest thing for Li Jinde.
But then Xiao Tianjian said, "But let's take a course and take a scholar, and we don't follow the example of today's court's test questions. Today's scientific examination attaches too much importance to the content of the four books and five classics. People who pass the exam can't be said to have no talent, but most of them are people who read dead books. Look at those who are officials in the court now! There are not many people who have real skills for a group of wine bags and rice bags and vegetarian meals!
If I am asked to take a course, the most important thing is to see the ability of the examinee! So if you want to take the exam, you can't say that there is nothing in the Four Books and Five Classics, but what's the use of the exam? It will only drop the book bag! Therefore, if you want to take the exam, you should pay attention to questions. As for poetry, songs and so on, you can't say that you don't want it at all. After all, this also represents the cultivation problem of a scholar, which can be clicked to the end, but you might as well add some things related to mathematics, agricultural economy and so on to see how the candidates answer, and see how much real they have in their chests. Useful knowledge!
In a word, you will be the first to handle this matter. You can explore what should be taken or not. You can explore it for the first time, and gradually improve it in the future, so that the examinees know that I, Xiao, want talents who have the knowledge of the world, so that those who only know how to read dead books can go back to read their dead books! At the very least, we should take a scholar through this course to let the scholars know what they should learn more in the future! Imperceptibly guide them to pay attention to practical learning!"
Li Jinde nodded repeatedly as he listened. In fact, people like him are also victims of the imperial examination. Li Jinde also feels that the content of the imperial examination examination in the current imperial court is too rigid and pedantic. Now Xiao Tianjian has said so many new things, which makes him very excited to listen. Think about it according to Xiao Tianjian's thinking. If In this way, the officials recruited from the opening of the subject can really tell whether the examinees have the real ability!
So Li Jinde hurriedly nodded and agreed, but Li Jinde didn't even dare to let Xiao Tianjian ask him preside over the exam. After all, he was young. Although he was valued by Xiao Tianjian in Xing Tianjun, he didn't have much fame after all. In this regard, his qualifications were obviously too poor and might be laughed at. .
Xiao Tianjian is the same. After all, it is his first time to take a course. Although Li Jinde is capable, after all, he is too young to host such a big event, which will inevitably make people look down on him a little. In this regard, it is really necessary to invite a heavyweight figure to sit down. In this way, it will have a certain celebrity effect. He can attract more scholars to take the exam this time, and he won't be laughed at by the scholars in other places.
So he nodded and said, "It's a good idea. It's true! However, you do this first, and I will think about the selection, but no matter who it is, you will list the test questions first! It's still you in the dark!"
Li Jinde agreed repeatedly. Xiao Tianjian was really at a loss about who would host the opening of the course. Originally, the first thing he thought of was Lu Xiangsheng. If Lu Xiangsheng came out this time, it would definitely cause a sensation, but Lu Xiangsheng had an appointment with him to go north to deal with the country. Before Zi, Lu Xiangsheng only promised to secretly act as his staff and give advice for him, but he was not allowed to disclose his identity to avoid harm to his family. Although Xiao Tianjian has secretly sent people, secretly contacted Lu Xiangsheng's family, and persuaded them to secretly move them to Henan for resettlement, but Lu Xiangsheng was stubborn. I'm definitely not willing to do this.
So the second thing he thought of He Fengsheng, who was caught in Wuchang Mansion this time. As He Fengsheng, if he came forward to preside over this matter, it should also be good. After all, this person has the talent to learn, and he is upright, but this old man is also stubborn, and he will definitely not come forward to do this matter.
After thinking about it, Xiao Tianjian suddenly thought of a person, so he had an idea in his mind, put it down for the time being, and then discussed other matters with Li Jinde.
Although Li Jinde is younger, he is energetic and has a lively brain. He has worked under Xiao Tianjian for more than two years and has achieved good results. Through his experience in various parts of Henan, he is now very experienced in dealing with local civil affairs. He can accept Xiao Tianjian's point of view on many things. Xiao Tianjian said that he understood what to do. What to do.
After talking for a day, Xiao Tianjian basically explained to him about civil affairs on Huguang's side. After Li Jinde wrote down Xiao Tianjian's instructions one by one, he nodded and agreed.
Although there are many scary things, for Li Jinde, he still tried his best to bear it. After all, there is no peace in the world now. Xiao Tianjian's main focus is still on the military aspect. Civil affairs can only be borne by their cronies first. If there are not enough manpower, they will find some people to help first. Local affairs cannot be delayed. They must be operated first, so as to provide enough support to the military. Xiao Tianjian has always been very clear about the affairs of the generals and the people. The generals do not do local civil affairs, but are mainly responsible for military affairs. It is convenient to immediately hand over the civil affairs of a locality, and they will never allow them. Interfering in the handling of civil affairs, and they are not allowed to arrange local officials privately, so these officials in charge of civil affairs should keep up with the pace and constantly accept the civil affairs management of new territory.
As for military affairs, civilian officials are not allowed to interfere with the generals. In the Xingtian Army, the status of military generals and civil affairs officials is relatively equal. They are in charge of their own affairs, talk to whoever has a problem, and cooperate more with each other, which also abandons the style of the Ming Dynasty.
(Today, I would like to thank the two brothers who don't drink the northwest wind and the white clouds. The waist and back hurt so much that I can't sit still! There are fewer words in this chapter! Please forgive me!)
