Curitios had no idea that someone was watching him through a window in the North Que Bus Office.
He is very happy now.
Since he was received by the emperor of the Han Dynasty, his treatment has been sharply improved by several grades.
Directly from Yidi, he became the messenger of the country of Yidi.
The difference between the two is like the difference between gold and bronze.
Now, Curitios, enjoying the treatment of a thousand stone officials of the Han Dynasty.
An institution called Shaofu provided him with a separate place to live, and also prepared servants and subordinates for him.
In addition to this, an erudite scholar served as Curitios' teacher, responsible for teaching him the language and writing.
After spending nearly a month in Chang'an, Curitios now has the appearance of a Han Chinese.
At least, he had already understood that in the Han Kingdom, the placket could not be worn casually, and whether the placket was to the left or to the right was an important symbol to distinguish barbarism from civilization in the Han Kingdom.
In addition, it is also important to tie your hair.
Loose hair, or short hair, that's what barbarians do.
A truly civilized person chooses to tie his hair and wash his hair and body regularly.
This was an eye-opener for Curitios.
Another civilized world, completely different from the Roman and Greek model, but no less splendid, opened its doors to him.
After simple learning and popular science.
Now Curitios already knows that the real name of this ancient civilization country should be China.
And the Chinese consider themselves to be their ancestors, the Three Emperors and the Five Emperors.
It was a group of virtuous kings who existed in ancient times.
With their words and deeds, they have deeply influenced all the people living in this country.
To this day, China's state institutions and government institutions, as well as ideology and culture, are still deeply influenced by those ancient virtuous kings.
The supreme ruler, the emperor, often mentioned the names, words and deeds of those great people in his orders and legal texts, in order to emphasize the legitimacy of his rule and the legitimacy of the law.
Even.
It's the title of the emperor.
It is also from the Three Emperors and Five Emperors.
I looked up at a blank piece of paper posted under a willow tree.
Curitios touched his chin a little embarrassed.
Chinese writing, for him, is simply too difficult.
The strokes and structure of those square words are too complicated.
Even he was such a smart man in Rome.
So far, I only recognize a few simple Chinese characters.
As for writing, it's even more impossible.
Curitios could only hope that a few of his friends from the Han Dynasty who he had just met would help him translate the words posted on the white paper under the tree.
In China for so long, Curitios' favorite and favorite Chinese creation.
It's just a blank slate.
This kind of lightweight, simple, neat and easy-to-write artificiality is, in Curitios's view, simply the best carrier of civilization.
Compared to China's blank paper.
Roman parchment can be thrown into the toilet to wipe your butt It wasn't long before several of Curitios' friends returned.
"The examination is about to start again" A young scholar said with a dance: "Your Majesty has issued an edict, on the eighth day of July this year, the examination will be reopened, and from tomorrow, all scholars can sign up."
Everyone else was excited.
One of the biggest motivations for them to stay in Chang'an is to take the examination.
Pass the exam.
Get an official position, and then, get ahead, glorify your ancestors.
"Hey, I'm afraid, this year, I'm waiting for the children of Confucianism, and I'm going to be suppressed again," another scholar shook his head and sighed.
In last year's examination, Confucianism was sniped by the Legalists, the Huang Lao School, the Mohists and even the peasants.

The princely class in the court also rebounded strongly.
Ultimately.
Confucianism paid a heavy price.
Many of the scholars who passed the examination were affected, and even some of them were obviously qualified enough to stay in the Jiuqing Yamen in Chang'an City as officials.
In the end, it was forced to be decentralized.
And those noble positions were left to the children of the liehous.
This year, I am afraid, there will be a repeat of the tragedy of last year.
"No way, who told me to wait for the Confucian disciples.
People are soft-spoken," someone said indignantly.
Among the princes and courtiers of Chang'an, there were too few people who were inclined to Confucianism.
Even, even the Mohists are now more well-connected in the court than Confucianism.
The former Shaofu Ling Cen Mai, and the current Langzhong Ling Yizong, it is said that they both have a good relationship with the Mo family.
In addition, today's son is also the biggest backer of the Mo family.
It is said that the Son of Heaven would go to the ink garden once every ten years to talk to the ink masters.
Even people often give wine, meat, bedding and other things from the palace to Moyuan.
Even, there are rumors that the disciples of the Mo family do not need to pass the examination at all.
As long as they make achievements in the ink garden, the Son of Heaven will give them everything they want.
This made the Confucian disciples really envious, jealous and hateful when they looked at it.
Curitios didn't know about these things, and he was confused when he heard it.
Therefore, he asked, "What are you talking about?"
The others looked at it and smiled.
In the face of this lovely Yidi envoy, everyone felt that it was necessary to give him a good lesson and popularize common sense.
Educating Yidi, that's a great achievement So, they all talked to Curitios about the ins and outs and history of the examination.
Curitios listened, but was even more confused.
It is indeed difficult to let the Romans, who are accustomed to dragons giving birth to dragons, phoenixes giving birth to phoenixes, and the sons of rats making holes, understand that Chinese meritocracy and princely generals would rather have a kind of tradition.
But, fortunately, Confucian people may not be as good as other princes in other strengths, but in terms of patience, they are a must.
So, everyone explained the system and methods of the examination to Curitios in detail.
Curitios finally understood.
It turns out that this is a brand-new model for selecting officials that is unique to China.
Not by bloodline, not by knighthood, but simply by knowledge as the criterion.
Through three rounds of examinations ranging from shallow to deep, lower-level officials in the local and various central organs are selected.
This model, called the examination examination, does not have any restrictions, as long as you are Chinese, whether it is a slave or a noble, you can participate.
After passing three rounds of screening, those who can serve as mayors and centurions can hold official positions.
And in the future, these people through their own efforts.
You can also become an important minister of the state.
Among the current Chinese aristocracy, there are many people who stand out from this model, and they have the highest positions.
It even achieved the position equivalent of the governor of Rome.
This left Curitios stunned and in disbelief In Rome, let alone a governor.
Even if you are a mayor, you also need to have the status of a citizen.
As for slaves and civilians If you want to climb up, you can only do it when Curitios leaves Rome.
The plebeian class in Rome was already very dissatisfied with this, and Curitios heard that several tribunes wanted to propose to the Senate to strengthen the preferential treatment of the plebeians, but unfortunately, they were directly rejected by the Senate.
And in the Han Dynasty in the East, the boundaries of class, although there were.
But it's not obvious.
From a slave, it is not for nothing that he becomes a governor.
Curitios had heard of a marquis of China.

A dozen years ago, even just the son of a slave of another marquis.
But now, the son of this former slave is now a relative of the Emperor of China, the nephew of the Empress Dowager, and an important subordinate of a big man named Wei Qihou.
Commanding an army of tens of thousands, it was even rumored that he would be appointed as a county guard, the equivalent of the governor of Rome "If I go back and tell the citizens of Rome what I have seen in the East.
I'm afraid, no one will believe it," Curitios couldn't help but sigh.
But, for all this, he can only sigh.
I didn't have any other ideas.
What kind of political system does China in the East adopt and what mode of rule does it use?
It has little to do with Rome in the West.
The Senate of the Republic and the Council of Captains of the Hundred did not care what method a country that was three or four years away from Rome would rule the country.
But Curitios decided anyway.
Continue to gain an in-depth understanding and study of the society and politics of this ancient country of the East.
Maybe in the future, he can take this opportunity to go one step further and become a tribune Well Curitios felt that the situation of the civilians in China would surely be very envious of the civilians of Rome.
When he returns to Rome, he may be able to run under the banner of living like a Chinese civilian, and the civilians will definitely vote for him.
With this thought, Curitios said: "Gentlemen, let's go back, the teacher is still waiting for the class."
Today's Curitios, and these scholars are considered brothers, and they are all disciples of Wang Zang.
The only difference is probably that Curitios does not have a deep sense of Confucian theory, nor does he have any awareness as a child of Confucianism.
In his opinion, that teacher was not much different from his tutor who had taught him in Rome in the past.
Of course, there is still the necessary respect.
In Rome, respect for the teacher, although not as much as in China in the East.
But it's also very important.
Especially after Aristotle taught Alexander, many nobles began to value teachers and scholars.
Liu Che was not in Chang'an at this time.
A few days ago, he had already left Weiyang Palace, took his concubines and children, and went to Ganquan Palace to escape the summer.
This is the first time since he ascended the throne that he has moved his office to Ganquan Palace in the summer.
The main purpose was to vacate the Xuanmuro Hall for maintenance and renovation.
Liu Che asked Shaofu to make a large plaque and prepare to hang it on the hall of the Xuanshu Palace.
This is the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
The Manchu Qing Dynasty hung a plaque on the Qinzheng Hall in the Forbidden City.
Let's not talk about it, the emperors of the Manchu Qing Dynasty believe it or not, but, at the very least, they fooled many people and literati.
The braided drama of later generations is even more praised.
In Liu Che's view, this is a good propaganda strategy.
At the very least, it can fool people.
Of course, Liu Che did not plan to follow the example of the Manchu Qing Dynasty and hang a plaque of righteousness and brightness.
Because, that is simply not possible and will not help.
Politics is inherently dark, and politics is inherently a myriad of black-box operations.
There is no other way but to deceive oneself and others.
Liu Che makes people hang: the four seas are poor, and Tianlu will never end.
This was intercepted from the policy issued by Emperor Yao Chan when he gave it to Emperor Shun.
The full text is: Ziershun: The calendar of the sky is bowing, allowing it to cling to it, the four seas are poor, and the heavens are forever over.
It means: Shun, now I pass on the great throne to you according to the mandate of heaven, and you must honestly and properly carry out the righteous way, if the people of the world fall into poverty, then heaven will take back the mandate given to you Liu Che's meaning of hanging this plaque is obvious, to remind himself.
At the same time, it also draws a red line for future generations.
You can eat, drink, be merry, be a carpenter, do alchemy, or whatever.
However, if the people are poor and the country is in economic difficulty, you should wait to be the king of the country.
This is the central idea that Liu Che chose after thinking about it for a long time.
In addition, he intends to use this sentence as a source of legitimacy for the Han regime in the future.

It's like the Celestial Empire in the future.
Feeding the bellies of the people and developing the economy will be regarded as the task and goal of the state.
In addition, Liu Che also felt that it was necessary to put the stone in memory of the sacrificial text of Shang Tang's sacrifice to the heavens, and placed it in front of the throne of the Xuanshu Palace.
In this way, every emperor, before ascending the throne, will see the oath made to the sky at the time of the Shang Tang Ding Revolution: Yu Zixu dares to use the Xuanshe, and dares to tell the emperor and the emperor: the guilt is not forgiven, the emperor is not hidden, and Jane is in the emperor's heart.
I am guilty of bowing, there are no ten thousand parties, all parties are guilty, and the sin is bowing to me In Liu Che's view, as long as the emperors of ancient Chinese dynasties could read and remember the oaths and edicts of these two emperors, they would not get away with it at all, and there would be no problems at all.
To put it bluntly, the rulers don't need to learn anything from the Western people's Magna Carta, they can get enough wisdom and strategy from their ancestors.
It's a pity that most people just take the words of their ancestors as slogans, as lines when they shed tears when they are racing their acting skills.
And Liu Che did this to force his descendants to come, no matter what, at least on the surface, he had to be an attitude and set an example.
Otherwise, his throne will soon be lost Of course, this is only a precautionary strategy and safeguard.
If there is really a strange thing like Song Qinzong, no matter how much protection and prevention are made, it is useless.
After all, you can't expect a brain-dead person to do anything with an IQ.
People insist on dying, and you have no choice but to do it Therefore, the key lies in itself, in education, and in tradition.
The education of the seven kings of the Qin State, Liu Che believes that it is necessary to learn and learn.
Therefore, Liu Che has now come to Mao Township in Huaili County.
This is his future resting place.
Although, such a thing as inspecting one's own mausoleum looks weird.
But this is a compulsory course for every emperor of the Han family.
The imperial tomb occupied a very important position in the political life of the Han dynasty.
The specifications and system of the imperial tomb can directly reflect the attitude of the emperor in power towards the world and the idea of governing the government.
Emperor Taizong's tomb is a good example.
The entire Baling project was as frugal as possible, and it did not increase the burden on the people as much as possible.
Even the geography of Bashan itself, Emperor Taizong Xiaowen, forbade officials and latecomers to destroy it.
The reason is that he does not like and does not want to increase the burden on the people.
When Liu Che came to him, the Imperial Mausoleum Project began to take on more things. t1706231537:
