After all, if there is a government office, there must be attendants such as constables.
Cai Jing thought that the emperor would ask him who stayed in Xianyang.
However, Ying Yuan was completely indifferent to the matter, "I am at ease with you doing the job.
The rising stars of the twelve families must be used as much as possible."
Hear the sound.
Cai Jing frowned slightly.
Analyzing Ying Yuan’s words.
Your Majesty, you don't need to ask who stayed in Xianyang. It must be the Jinyiwei or the Dongchang. They have already told Your Majesty about this matter in advance.
The twelve families are fundamentally different from the five major families.
Your Majesty wants to make use of the rising talents of the twelve families. Could it be that the deeper meaning behind this is that he wants to use the influence of the Jiangnan gentry to contain the five major families?
So as to break the monopoly of the five major families on the country?
Maybe that's true.
Your Majesty, every move you make is so well thought out and far-sighted!
"I obey the decree."
Cai Jing bowed deeply.
Since the emperor has that plan, he naturally has to do his best to help the emperor.
As for the few people he left in Xianyang, they were basically all great people.
There are Yu Qian, Zhang Juzheng, Ding Wei, and Xie An.
In Cai Jing's eyes, these people will be great talents who can stabilize the country in the future.
In addition to these four people, there was another person who was arranged by him to study in the Hanlin Academy.
That person is Zhu Xi.
Cai Jing was quite good at judging people. He believed that Zhu Xi was quite talented in Confucianism and could be explored.
"Now that our country has a lot of work to do and is in great need of talented people, what are your opinions, my dear minister?"
Ying Yuan asked.
In the past, when the country needed talented people to serve as officials, they had to select from major families.
Or it could be a recommendation system.
It means that an official recommends a person from the opposition to serve as an official in the court.
But there is only one result of doing this.
That is, the aristocratic families monopolized the court.
Cai Jing frowned and said, "Why not just keep making it as it is..."
Hearing this, Ying Yuan shook his head decisively and said in a startling tone, "I intend to establish an imperial examination system. What do you think, my dear minister?"
He had thought about the imperial examination before.
How did the Sui Dynasty fall?
One reason is that they are ambitious and have not restrained their warlike nature.
Second, the construction of the canal damaged its vitality.
Third, the imperial examination system offended the aristocratic families.
The first one cannot be done at the moment.
But the canal was already being built.
It’s time to abolish the imperial examination system.
Don’t people say that the Qin Dynasty was essentially a situation where aristocratic families and the imperial court ruled the world together?
Then I will have to touch the lifeblood of the family.
In this case, those noble families will either become desperate and come to bite me, or I will look down on them!
As long as the aristocratic families are forced to rebel, the Qin Dynasty will be in chaos!
Even if the country is destroyed because of this, it is a natural thing!
