Chapter 349: The streets are full of Jinshi and others
A family with hundreds of years of heritage is not given in vain.
They have the deepest knowledge reserves, the best educational resources, the most advanced educational concepts, and financial guarantees that ordinary people cannot achieve.
In this day and age, you can't afford to read or go to school without any financial resources. Even if you go to school, it will be difficult for you to learn anything without being taught by people who have the right to speak knowledge.
In addition, for hundreds of years, the marriage between the elites of these aristocratic families, even from the perspective of future generations' genetics, the probability of geniuses appearing is probably much higher than that of ordinary people's families.
Therefore, throughout history, it is not unreasonable for these wealthy families to produce talents in large numbers. Otherwise, Li Shimin would not be timid and would have to be courteous to them.
"Zian, what you think is still too simple."
Wei Zheng couldn't help but put down his chopsticks, shook his head slightly, and sighed.
"Do you think Mi Lu Teng Feng can solve the problem? The heritage of the aristocratic family is not that simple. The younger generation is also a generation of elites. It is difficult for ordinary people to reach their heights - the influence of whether to write names or not, and whether to copy or not.
, it’s actually not as big as you think…”
Wei Zheng really thought highly of Wang Zi'an and wanted to give him some advice. He looked at Wang Zi'an and said meaningfully.
"If that's the case, why doesn't the imperial court sell their favor? Let the test papers be openly exposed in front of them. In this way, it will make them worry about their face and take care of the imperial court's mood, so that they will not admit all the famous families.
Disciples——"
Wang Zi’an:……
You understand everything about feelings!
They are plotting here, adding sand to the court openly and openly, and harvesting the wool of aristocratic families——
However, aren’t you emperors and prime ministers too humble?
I feel so pitiful.
Wang Zi'an secretly complained, but quietly put away his contempt for these court officials.
Who says the ancients were short-sighted?
They are so smart!
It's just that we are limited by the times and have insufficient vision, so we cannot think of many problems.
Although I think so in my heart, how can I admit defeat verbally?
We can’t afford to lose our keyboard warriors!
Wang Zi'an raised his glass and touched it with Wei Zheng.
"Old Wei, I didn't expect you to have some knowledge. Being an old accountant here is a waste of talent -"
Wei Zheng:......
I can't laugh or cry, but you are still complaining about me.
If you knew that I was a dignified secretary-supervisor and involved in political affairs, I don't know how wonderful the expression on my face would be.
He couldn't help but turn up the corners of his mouth, and drank a drink with Wang Zi'an with a smile.
The old aunt's smile made Cheng Yaojin, Tang Jian and others feel a chill, and Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling and others couldn't help but be dumbfounded.
Can this old man also laugh?
"However, Old Wei, although you have good knowledge, your ability to solve problems is still a bit behind that of the prime ministers in the imperial court -"
Wei Zheng's smile suddenly froze on his face.
Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling and others could not help but be stunned.
Seeing that Li Shimin, Wei Zheng and others were embarrassed, Cheng Yaojin couldn't help but secretly laugh.
I knew that after this brat drank too much, he didn't speak so nicely. Sure enough, here he comes.
"Is there any other way you can think of to break the situation?"
Wei Zheng was a little unconvinced.
Not only was he unconvinced, but people like Li Shimin and Fang Xuanling were also unconvinced.
This kind of thing is not a problem that can be solved by inventing some equipment, writing a few poems, and finding some high-yielding crops. This is the governance of the country.
Wang Zi'an glanced at them, with a look of indifference on his face.
Well, an expert should be calm and calm!
Come, come, come again!
Seeing Wang Zi'an's familiar posture, Li Shimin suddenly felt something in his heart. He picked up the pot and poured the wine, all in one go. His movements were so skillful that it made people sad.
"The arrangement of the emperor and the prime ministers is still a bit small -"
Wang Zi'an sighed, raised his glass, took a sip, and spoke in a leisurely and authentic tone.
"You tell me, since they are going to add sand to the court, why don't they add more..."
Li Shimin's heart moved, he had a vague idea, but he didn't quite understand it. He couldn't help but lean forward and said a little eagerly.
"you mean--"
"This is not simple - since the top talents can't compare with others, then compared with the talents at the middle and lower levels - recruit thirty, fifty, or one hundred people. If it is not as good as the aristocratic family, then recruit three hundred or five
Hundreds, a thousand, ten thousand!”
Having said this, Wang Zi'an leaned back lazily and glanced sideways at Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng and others.
"I don't believe that there are more people in aristocratic families than in the whole world - the imperial examination is just a stepping stone. There is not much difference between ranking first and ranking in the thousandth place. It is enough to be qualified to be an official -"
Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng and others could not help but be dumbfounded, and even generals such as Cheng Yaojin and Qin Shubao could not help but be dumbfounded.
Not to mention Ma Zhou and Li Yi's mansion who haven't even entered the court yet.
The whole thing is going crazy.
Just thinking about how thousands or even tens of thousands of people could pass the exam, the two of them felt thunderous and didn't know what to say.
Why do people who have their heads cut off have to take the imperial examination?
Because there are few people who pass the exam, and things are rare and valuable, if you pass the exam, you will soar into the sky and bring glory to your ancestors.
If the streets were full of Jinshi...
Li Shimin waited for a long time before he regained his composure.
Swallowed hard.
"This idea is really shocking - Zian, do you know that this will cause the imperial court to become bloated, increase the burden on the people, and even lead to serious consequences of overstaffing -"
Although according to what Wang Zi'an said, it seemed that the family's monopoly on talents could really be broken, but with his eyes, he could naturally see the terrible consequences of this approach at a glance.
He glanced at Li Shimin who looked shocked.
Wang Zi'an couldn't help but feel happy in his heart.
Have you ever seen the future generations where college students are everywhere and graduate students are as numerous as dogs?
He cheerfully picked up a pair of chopsticks mixed with ginger and lotus root, chewed them slowly, and said slowly.
"Otherwise, your brain is not flexible - do you think the imperial court is short of talents now? The Tang Dynasty has just been established, and there are many wastes waiting to be revitalized. Where is the need for talents in the Tang Dynasty? Looking forward to talents is like looking at the clouds of a severe drought -
Let alone recruiting hundreds or thousands of people at a time, if you recruit tens of thousands of people at a time, there will be a place to arrange it——"
Li Shimin was dumbfounded, Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, Tang Jian and others were dumbfounded. Even generals such as Qin Shubao and Cheng Yaojin who were not involved in government affairs could not help but be dumbfounded.
"Where did the imperial court come from with so many official positions——"
Li Shimin couldn't help mumbling to himself.
Looking at their dumbfounded bears, Wang Zi'an couldn't help but feel very good.
What do you want when you drink and brag?
This is the feeling that makes you all stupid!
