The next day, the morning sun rose, and the morning sun of Da Qin also rose.
During the discussion at Qilin Hall, they all talked about innocuous things. Even Feng Jie seemed to have put aside his hatred towards Liu Bai for the time being and concentrated on the matter of selecting officials through the literary test.
Feng Jie also gave Liu Bai a slight hint. If a noble family member could get a majority of official positions this time, he would treat it as spending money to buy an official position, regardless of past regrets.
Liu Bai, on the other hand, pretended to be dumbfounded and even cried out, saying, "A large amount of money for mental damages is too humiliating for the truth. Why don't you, the imperial censor, add a little more?" Even Feng Jie didn't bother to negotiate with such shameless words. .
The most unexpected thing is the choice of examiner!
When in the court, nobles from aristocratic families, Confucian officials, and even Liu Bai rolled up their sleeves and tried to compete for the position of examiner, His Majesty the First Emperor appointed a person who directly made all the forces have nothing to say.
"Today's selection of officials for the literary test will be presided over by Wang Jian!"
"Choose fifty outstanding works and submit them to Qilin Hall."
"I have appointed it!"
His Majesty the First Emperor spoke calmly, but all the officials were silent!
Wang Jian took the exam, which really made people not even think about competing!
When it comes to strength, although Wang Jian is a military general, he is really not comparable to that reckless man Wang Ben! This old general was also a real master of both civil and military affairs. Even when Lu Buwei compiled "Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals", Wang Jian also participated in part of the content.
In terms of qualifications...forget it, don't talk about it, no one can pass it anyway!
"promise!"
Wang Jian stood up and accepted the order with a normal expression.
All the ministers were envious of this good job of recruiting disciples while lying down!
"Retreat!"
...
All the officials filed out, and Li Si walked up to Liu Bai and said with approval, "I have read the test questions you gave me."
"In addition to policy discussions, there are also test questions for the common people! For this alone, I'm afraid even His Majesty the First Emperor will praise you after reading it!"
"But I don't understand why you set up imaginary questions in such an important part of the last few questions?"
“It is like a common man losing his cow, and his neighbor shirks his responsibility.”
"Two wives fighting for a son."
"If you pick up money on the road, it will belong to you."
"These questions are really strange."
Liu Bai smiled and said: "Uncle Li, we are choosing officials who really do things for the people, not those losers who say 'Your Majesty is mighty, and everyone will submit', but in fact they can't even count the money."
"Questions such as policy essays depend on the candidates' perspective."
"And those hypothetical questions at the end are precisely the test to determine whether they can really benefit the people in the future!"
When Liu Bai said this, Li Si nodded slightly.
He started out as a junior official, and after decades of ups and downs in officialdom, he has never seen what kind of official.
With Liu Bai's method, the officials selected may not be as ordinary as usual, and they may seem to have the demeanor of a humeral minister.
But it is true that he can do practical things for the people of Da Qin!
even...
Li Si was considering whether to use this plan when selecting minor officials in various counties.
Liu Bai looked at Li Si thinking and laughed secretly in his heart!
Hooked!
This kind of literary examination selects officials and looks at the benefits of doing it. How can someone like Li Si not see the benefits in it?
Once you see how good it is, you will naturally want to use it!
Isn’t this the prototype of the imperial examination system?
As long as the library is well established and the issue of popularization of knowledge is considered at that time, a complete imperial examination system may appear in the Qin Dynasty eight hundred years earlier.
You know, this is not the eight-part essay selection in the future. With Liu Bai's precedent of 'practical hypothetical questions', the direction of the imperial examination system will only become more and more practical!
"Uh...Uncle Li, I still have to go to Yiwen Palace to give lectures, you are busy!"
Liu Bai watched Li Si thinking and naturally didn't want to disturb him. After saying something vague, he left.
Only Li Si, who even forgot to walk, paused and pondered.
How could he, who was born into a poor family, not want to open a dragon gate for the poor people in the world?
but...
This dragon gate may require one's life to open it!
If examinations are used to select officials in the future...the recommendation system is abandoned, the interested parties involved will join forces at the first opportunity and tear them apart!
It’s difficult!
....
"Okay, don't be so slouchy!"
"I'll take you to take the literary test to select officials today!"
"I have already signed up for you!"
When he walked to Yiwen Palace, Liu Bai didn't even bother to give a lecture and just spoke.
As a time traveler, prepare lessons and give lectures? too painful! Every day you can be lazy is a day! It's impossible to hold class, so how about arranging extracurricular activities... Sorry! Be sure to schedule it as much as possible!
"Really Master Liu?"
"That's great! I've wanted to take a look at the selection of officials for this essay exam for a long time!"
"Thank you Master Liu!"
"I'm just telling you! How could our Master Liu let such a big thing go and let me wait and study in Yiwen Palace?"
"Uh...Master Liu, I have a stomachache!"
"..."
Cheers sounded out one after another, and everyone was cheering except for a certain reckless young man who had the word "justice" written on his body.
Even Hu Hai, who had always been timid, barely smiled a little at this moment!
At least... outside Yiwen Palace, this Master Liu won't punish him anymore, right?
For some reason, Hu Hai now has a deep-seated fear of Liu Bai.
Especially when Liu Bai laughed, Hu Hai always felt like he saw his teacher Zhao Gao who was kowtowed to death.
Even...now he does not allow any white objects to appear in Hu Hai's palace, nor does he allow willow trees to be planted in his palace!
Later generations suddenly realized this when they studied the daily records of the Qin royal family.
It turns out that... the first person to suffer from 'Liu Bai's phobia' was actually the 18th Young Master of Great Qin!
A scientist named Mendes Bird even published a special paper, "On!" How much damage a big sinus can do to a child."
Once the paper was published, it caused a sensation in society.
Even five-star general Mike Erse said: I am not afraid of any enemy on the battlefield, but I am also afraid of the big sinuses of the most ruthless prime minister of the Qin Dynasty two thousand years ago! Because...this kind of childhood shadow will last a lifetime!
Of course, these are all things for later.
At this moment...the eighteen young masters of Qin Dynasty are leaving the palace together!
Ying Gao, who was originally unwilling to go, walked to the front of the team when he heard that he did not have to take the exam.
They even brought along the Great Qin Justice Team to protect their safety.
Liu Bai didn't have the heart to tell Ying Gao that he would not let Ying Gao take the exam because he was simply afraid that Ying Gao would lose face as a teacher.
I have to say that the genes of the old winner are really powerful.
Although the eighteen young men have different temperaments, overall they are all handsome!
Coupled with Liu Bai's appearance, when he appeared at the entrance of the examination room, some girls who came with their families were immediately stunned by his handsomeness!
But... when Ying Gao and his Da Qin Justice Team put on the 'Justice' cloak, Liu Bai took several steps sideways with an expression that said they and I didn't recognize each other, which made these Da Qin young masters feel at a loss. Medium messy.
"Candidates are admitted!"
As a majestic voice sounded, Great Qin's first literary examination official selection... began!
Liu Bai stood on one side and saw Xiao He, calm and confident.
Look at Cao Shen again,
The young man's face showed excitement for the unknown!
These people... are the future light of Great Qin!
"Don't let me down."
Liu Bai took a deep breath and walked into the examination room...the back hall.
There was a recliner there and he was ready to take a nap.
....
How to say! ! ! ! ! Such a blast! ! ! ! Scream! Tell me loudly!
Do you love me!
