Lin Feng said with a smile: "Guo Tu said a lot, let me refute them one by one. Guo Tu's first sentence said that there were countless young heroes under the Qin Dynasty, who received a good education, and they were all talented people. I agree with this.”

"But how many people can you discover through recruiting and investigating? There will eventually be people you miss."

"Anyone who has passed the imperial examination can take part in the assessment as long as he is talented. As long as he passes the imperial examination, the imperial court will arrange for him to serve in a local government, and he will have room to display his talent."

"Just now Mr. Guo said that when I said there was a shortage of talents, I was talking about the lack of talent reserves in the imperial court. But you reversed the concept and turned it into a shortage of local talents. I just know that Qin State has talents, so I use assessment methods to promote talents."

Lin Feng talked eloquently and rebutted directly.

Guo Tu said: "The Duke of Zhenguo..."

"Wait a moment."

Lin Feng said directly: "Mr. Guo, when you spoke, I didn't say a word and let you finish. Now, please let me finish. Then if you have different opinions, can you refute it?"

Guo Tu's cheeks twitched and he said humbly: "Please, please."

Lin Feng continued: "Mr. Guo said that the imperial examination would consume countless manpower and material resources, making the court a heavy burden. However, the court can never have too many talents, and if the court can really get talents, why not regret it? Where’s the money?”

"As long as we can recruit talents, it will be worth whatever price we pay."

"Let's talk about the cost of conscription and conquest. Doesn't it cost money to conduct it in various places? Even because of conscription and conquest, countless people will go through the back door and compete for a few places, hiding dirty things."

"The imperial examination is the most fair."

"Countless people participate, and the assessments are all the same. They participate in the assessments fairly and impartially."

Lin Feng spoke in a strong tone and said directly: "In addition, Doctor Guo also said that the people who came to participate were mixed, which is even more wrong. Those who come to participate in the imperial examination must at least be able to read and write. If they do not even have this step, it is naturally impossible to participate. .”

"The so-called mixed good and bad does not exist."

"Scholars from all big families will also have the opportunity to participate. No one will be left out, and no one will be let down. As long as you have talent, you will never be abandoned. This is how to promote talents in the countryside. Even those in the countryside Talents can be selected, which is the most important thing.”

Gudong!

Guo Tu swallowed his saliva.

He originally wanted to refute, but Lin Feng's last words made him swallow all his refutations.

Guo Tu took a step back and stopped talking.

"The Duke of Guo, I have a question for Cui Jing, the doctor in the lower household department. The Duke of Guo said that even talents in the countryside can be promoted. In fact, this is a big fallacy. There are many people who live in seclusion in the countryside. These people do not admire glitz. . If you open a subject to get scholars, it is impossible for others to come. Only by recruiting recruits from the imperial court can it be possible for them to become officials."

Cui Jing is in his forties, with a slim and tall figure and a solemn look with his head held high.

He looked proud.

He believed that he had found a loophole in Lin Feng's words.

Lin Feng sneered and said: "Cui Jing, you are wasting your age, and what you said is nonsense. People who can serve in the Ministry of Household Affairs are logically more rigorous people, but unfortunately, your words are self-indulgent. Contradictory.”

"Can you recruit a person who doesn't admire glitz and is determined not to serve in an official position?"

"If you just say a few words and come out of the mountain, I can only say that the so-called seclusion is just to wait for a price, just to get more attention. Such a person has a false name, and it is even more false."

"Such a person is not worth conquering."

"A true hermit is like my master Xunzi. When faced with invitations from kings of various countries, he remained unmoved and only wanted to preach and teach. A true hermit is like my senior brother Han Qianqiu. Even if the imperial court continues to conquest, That means staying in Bailu Mountain to preach and teach."

"As for the other people, I don't like them. They are recruited by the imperial court and become officials after just two calls."

Lin Feng looked solemn and said: "If you want to become an official, just become an official. If you want to show off, then just show off yourself."

brush!

Cui Jing's expression also changed.

There is nothing wrong with Lin Feng's words.

If you are a hermit, or even a true hermit, you should live in seclusion in the countryside and not be moved by fame and fortune. Wouldn't it be ironic and absurd for a person who claims not to be interested in fame and fortune to be moved by fame and fortune?

Cui Jing bowed and bowed before turning around and retreating.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the hall became a little serious. Because Lin Feng was so powerful, everyone in the court had seen it.

Lin Feng is not an ordinary person. It is not easy to refute Lin Feng.

Ying Jiuxiao felt happy when he saw this scene. As expected, Lin Feng had to rely on Lin Feng for such a matter involving debate. In the past, although Ying Jiuxiao had a high prestige, if you wanted to be a wise king, you would have many constraints. You would often be criticized by the censor, and you had to listen with an open mind.

Now the people in the imperial court were suppressed by Lin Feng.

Ying Jiuxiao was very happy and said with a smile: "Since we want to debate, let's debate clearly, and whether the reason is unclear or not. Now on the table, let's make it clear. Whichever side wins, I will support which side. Once the strategy is decided, , in the end they have to cause trouble and operate secretly, so don’t blame me for being rude."

"Mr. Zhen Guo, I have one more question."

At this moment, Xu Yifu stood up.

As soon as Xu Yifu came out, all the surrounding officials cheered up.

Xu Yifu is not an ordinary courtier. He is the prince of the country and one of the giants in the court. Although Xu Yifu, a noble official, was not as good as the six ministers, Xu Yifu had considerable influence among the scholars. In addition, Xu Yifu is also from a wealthy family, so he must make a statement.

Xu Yifu cannot sit idly by and ignore it.

Lin Feng's expression was as usual. Ever since he made up his mind to argue with the courtiers about the issue of opening a subject to obtain scholars, he had been mentally prepared.

Now, it is just Xu Yifu.

This is not a big deal.

Lin Feng said: "If you have any problems with Xu Jijiu, just say it. I just hope that Xu Jijiu's issue will not be like the two previous people who objected for the sake of opposition. You can object, but I hope you have something to say. "

Guo Tu and Cui Jing's cheeks twitched.

Both of them were a little chatty.

In front of all the civil and military officials, in front of the emperor, Lin Feng named him like this. If Lin Feng wins later, they will really lose face.

In their hearts, both of them were looking forward to Lin Feng's defeat.

Only Lin Feng's defeat can prove their correctness.

Xu Yifu looked at Lin Feng's confident and calm face, and felt a little frightened from the bottom of his heart. After all, Lin Feng never lost during the debate.

Xu Yifu cheered up and said proactively: "Prince Zhen Guo, I believe that if we implement the method of civil examination to obtain scholars, we will immediately encounter resistance and opposition from the people of the world, and even further cause civil strife in the Qin Dynasty."

"We have just destroyed the Xia Kingdom, and Yanzhou and Guanzhong are still under control. What is needed at this time is stability. Is it a bit urgent to implement the imperial examination now? What I want to ask is whether it can be postponed. After all, advancing now will cause turmoil in the Qin Dynasty. "

As soon as these words came out, the eyes of many people in the hall lit up.

This is a good point.

Xu Yifu’s point of view is not opposition, but support. But this kind of support is false support, not real support. Once you delay, there will be too many problems later.

At today's court meeting, things could not be settled. As time goes on, it will be even more troublesome in the future.

Ying Jiuxiao sat upright, with a hint of worry on his old face. Xu Yifu's problems were very tricky, and he was a little worried for a while. He didn't know how Lin Feng planned and considered.

It depends on Lin Feng's response.

A pair of eyes fell on Lin Feng again.

Waiting for Lin Feng to explain.
