"What do you mean by the imperial examination?"
Jia Huhu just gained Niu Fu's trust and found that Niu Fu was still as stupid as before, and he felt a little happy in his heart.
But when he was walking back, he met Ma Chao who came specifically to look for him.
"Yes, the Ma family is currently short of talents.
Relying only on my inspection and the recommendation of famous people is like a drop of sweet rain on ten acres of dry land.
Water from far away cannot quench the thirst of those nearby.
Only the entire Ma family can come forward and set out examination questions to select talents. , in order to attract those talents who are stranded in Fufeng to give lectures."
Regarding some advanced methods of later generations, Ma Chao always had to find a suitable reason before he dared to tell the old fox, lest the old fox would notice his differences.
After all, it would be fine if Diao Chan knew about time travel.
If the whole world knew about it, he would not be able to survive anymore.
This is why he consulted with Jia Xu, the old and steady old fox, and Fazheng, the too-mindful little fox.
Because Ma Chao felt very keenly that the little fox Fazheng was already doubting his origins.
Ma Chao is also enthusiastic about the imperial examination and has no mature ideas or designs at all.
But he knew that the old guy Jia Xu would not disappoint him, so he filled Jia Xu's impressions of the imperial examinations in later generations.
Originally, Ma Chao felt that even if Jia Xu would not agree, he would not object.
Unexpectedly, after Jia Xu listened to Ma Chao's story, his eyes that often seemed to be half-closed suddenly showed a look of ecstasy, and his voice was filled with a hint of uncontrollable excitement as he said: "If this is the case, Jia Xu will be a poor man in the world."
Thank you Lord" "Poor scholar" Ma Chao was stunned, and he vaguely remembered the other side of the imperial examination: Indeed, the implementation of the imperial examination system fundamentally cut off the source of officials from famous families for generations, and expanded the scope of the feudal government to select talents, making the central government Centralization of power was further strengthened.
There is no doubt that it has eroded the interests of those famous families in one fell swoop, making them no longer entangled and controlling the lifeline of the entire court.
Since the Eastern Han Dynasty, the method of selecting talents has followed the ancient system and has been developing and advancing, but it seems to have taken a detour.
Before the Qin Dynasty, the Zhou Dynasty governed the world through feudal states, and the selection of scholars also relied on the hereditary system.
Zhou Li, the social classes are very clear.
The country has the emperor, princes, ministers, and scholars who are responsible for each level.
As for each class, according to ethics and blood relationships, various positions are hereditary until the Spring and Autumn Period.
During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, scholars such as Keqing and Diners appeared who were free from the accidents of the system and shared their worries.
Hence the saying that Mengchangjun had three thousand diners.
Some of these people are run-down nobles, but most of them are common people from poor families living at the bottom.
Since the First Emperor, he has swept through the six kingdoms and implemented centralization of power.
As an emperor, in order to select talents from the people, a system of examination and evaluation was established.
Recommend people with both political integrity and talent from various places.
Scholars recommended by the prefecture level were called scholars, and their nature was different from that of later scholars; people recommended by the county level were called Xiaolian.
Since the Eastern Han Dynasty, in order to ensure the talents of those who inspected and promoted, the system of continuous sitting has been implemented.
That is to say, if you are recommended without real talent and knowledge, once it is found out, the recommended person will also be implicated.
On the one hand, this system ensures the talents of the recommended people, but on the other hand, it also guarantees the talents of the recommended people.
This also caused the aristocratic family to become more powerful.
The officials in the imperial court are inseparably connected with the family, and it can even be described as a situation where both prosper and suffer.
Just imagine, if you have nothing to do with me, why would I bother recommending you?
Your success has nothing to do with me, but if you are unlucky, I will be unlucky too.
Therefore, by the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, there was a saying that all officials came from aristocratic families.
Have the ability.
It is difficult for a scholar from a poor family without a background to get ahead.
As for those aristocratic families, it is also because of this method of sitting together.
Make it more powerful.
In the end, a situation emerged that even the emperor could not control.
By the time of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, the power of the family had become extremely powerful.
After the death of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, without the support of the noble families, the princes of all parties could not even gain a firm foothold.

For example, Han Fu, the former shepherd of Jizhou, was a serious official appointed by the imperial court.
However, Yuan Shao was able to overthrow Han Fu easily, relying on the power of Han Fu's family.
However, this was not the case with the imperial examination system, which included all strata of society in selecting talents.
No matter you are from a humble background or live in poverty, as long as you have a good plan and the ability to govern the country and bring peace to the world, you can participate in the imperial examination.
When one is named on the gold list, he can leap over the dragon gate and show his ambition.
Even if the famous families in the late Han Dynasty had great hands and eyes, if their descendants were useless and could not pass the imperial examination, it would be a shame for the family and a downcast pheasant.
No matter how many connections and wealth there are, it will not take more than three generations for them to be completely corrupted.
In particular, there are so many poor people in the world, and no matter how rich the heritage of famous families is, they cannot withstand qualitative changes caused by quantitative changes.
By then, the entire society and the entire era will have been changed by the imperial examination.
Thinking of this, Ma Chao's heart suddenly trembled.
He felt that it was too hasty to talk about the imperial examination this time.
It seemed that he, a small Yongzhou shepherd, could not handle such a major event that affected his entire body.
"This idea of dividing subjects into categories and conducting unified examinations seems unprecedented, but it is very new.
However, as long as it is implemented, all ordinary people in the world will have a chance to succeed, and there will be an endless stream of talents from the Ma family.
Lord, this move is really upright and wonderful.
When I reach the top, I admire you so much."
"Also, my lord is making an upright move this time.
Can the princes of the world not allow the scholars under their rule to take the exam?
They can block one or two, ten or a hundred, but there are so many scholars in the world. .
As long as the Lord gives hope to the scholars, how can those common people refuse?"
"That's true."
Ma Chao was still worried about the difficulty of implementing the imperial examination, but he had to admit that the old fox saw very far.
Seeing Ma Chao's somewhat absent-minded response, Jia Xu frowned and continued: "My lord, this year's exam may not be too sensational.
But as long as a commoner falls into your eyes and takes up an official position in the Ma family.
Then In the coming year, scholars from all over the world will flock to him, and in three years, they will return to Xinma's family.
In less than ten years, all the talents in this world will be in the lord's palace.
After listening to Jia Xu's words, Ma Chao felt a little bitter in his mouth at this moment: In fact, Ma Chao didn't want to be like this.
Opening up a medical school to recruit scholars under the rule of the Ma family, which was like a paradise.
In Ma Chao's view, although Yongzhou is desolate. , but in the past two years, many people of insight have also poured in.
This is a good opportunity to harvest talents.
What's more, under his own rule, the most lacking thing has always been intellectuals.
Taking this opportunity to acquire these scholars will greatly enhance the soft power of his own rule.
What's more, many talented people in history came from humble backgrounds; although they studied diligently, the reason for their success is often a somewhat sad "luck" - they were lucky enough to be favored by the court and become famous in one fell swoop; There are more unlucky people who are full of knowledge, knowledge and great ambitions, but they live in the same place as chickens and phoenixes.
For example, Zhuge Liang, the most dazzling figure in the Three Kingdoms, was supposedly a down-and-out commoner.
It was only later, with his dedicated management, that he married his sister into a wealthy family in Jingzhou, and then married a daughter of the famous Huang family, and then he squeezed into the circle of gentry and gained some popularity; as for the real poor gentry, such as Xu Shu, Pang Tong, two unlucky guys, you see how much effort they put into entering the official career.
One pretended to be crazy and acted like a fool to recommend himself, and even joined Liu Bei's subordinates.
The other was recommended by Zhuge Liang, but was disliked by Liu Bei because of his ugly appearance.
But things are like this.
The sudden arrival of a new thing always requires an adaptation process.
Especially since this new thing has ruined the livelihood of all the noble clans at once, the resistance they encountered must be even more intense.
Ma Chao almost wanted to retreat now, but Jia Xu, an old guy from a humble background, was still eloquent and seemed to be very concerned about the imperial examination.
At this time, Ma Chao's eyes lit up and he had a plan in his heart: Since you are like this If the old fox is so interested, then you have to shoulder the burden.
The one who cannot die is your lord, and the one who gets blamed is also your lord.
You know, as a qualified subordinate, his main responsibility is to take the blame for the leader.
"Old fox, don't be so whimsical.

This is also a preliminary plan of mine.
Think about it, there are many aristocratic families now.
Even in the desolate Yongliang Prefecture, there are also prominent families such as the Jiang family, Liu family, and Fu family.
If the Ma family takes this risk, The great injustice in the world will definitely become the target of public criticism.
The sworn enemy of the nobles in the world is planning to do something about it now."
With a bitter look on his face, Ma Chao acted like a rogue.
But Jia Xu looked at Ma Chao as if he were an idiot and said: "Contingency, contingency, if things don't work, then change."
Ma Chao suddenly felt a little stupid.
When he saw Jia Xu's contemptuous and disgusting behavior, he felt a surge of anger in his heart: "Become your sister and speak out when you have something to say.
Be careful.
I will transform and explode you first." s: Haha, it’s finally time to reach Brother Chou.
Are you busy lately?
Brother Chou, we haven’t had a good chat for a long time.
Yinqiu is still single now.
I haven’t learned your essence.
I feel ashamed of you.
Here, I want to thank you.
Brother Chou has continued to support and encourage me.
I bow and thank you:
