Liu Bei wanted to say this a long time ago, but he couldn't use it. Chen Xi never reached the limit, and now, it's here! It's time for me, Liu Bei, to stand up!
At this moment, Chen Xi was obviously overwhelmed by Liu Bei's courage. You must know that in the past, he had always tried his best to support Liu Bei and prevent Liu Bei from wavering in his confidence. He did not expect that one day his confidence would be wavered, but it was normal. He was a human being after all.
ah!
"..." Chen Xi fell into silence while holding the wine glass, leaving Liu Bei on the spot. After a while, Liu Bei felt that it was boring to have such a domineering attitude and no one would accept it. He silently restrained himself, picked up the chopsticks, and pointed at Chen Xi.
The side dishes on the table said with a melancholy expression, "Eat the vegetables, eat the vegetables, and then talk about other things after eating."
"Hahaha, why did Mr. Xuande suddenly change his expression like this?" Chen Xi looked at Liu Bei's melancholy expression and laughed.
"It's not you who caused it." Liu Bei said angrily, "You are obviously very clear-minded, but if you insist on not answering when it's time to answer, you are really looking for a fight!"
"I just feel in my heart that Mr. Xuande is indeed much more powerful than before." Chen Xi raised his glass and toasted to Liu Bei, "I really didn't expect it at all."
"Whatever you think of, so what if you don't expect it. This world is not something that one person can bear. There are you, me, and thousands of other people." Liu Bei drank the wine in the glass with a calm expression.
Said, "So there is no need to feel stressed."
Chen Xi nodded silently, and did not talk too much about opening up schools to recruit scholars, nor about the problems of the country's operation. Let's take a look at it. Liu Bei has such confidence, how can he waver in his plan to build a Chinese cultural circle?
But when he brought it up, even the planners were shaken. How could others not be in panic?
"Just do your best and keep your mentality stable." After eating, Liu Bei patted Chen Xi on the shoulder and said as he comforted Chen Xi and sent him out.
"Well, I'm confused. It's still growing in the back." Chen Xi nodded and said.
After Chen Xi left, Liu Bei angrily greeted Mr. Zhang, who was secretly peeping at the screen wall, "Why don't you come here and sneak around?"
"I heard from the maid that Zichuan came in the same car with you, so I ran over to see what was going on." Mrs. Zhang said with some embarrassment.
"It's nothing. Zichuan has been feeling physically and mentally exhausted recently. I just want to calm him down. That guy is just looking for trouble. The country is prosperous. Even if there are some hidden dangers, there is no need to care so much. Although those who do not plan for the future will not be able to plan for the moment; those who do not plan for the overall situation will not be concerned about it.
It’s not enough to find a field, but I always feel that this guy Zichuan thinks too much." Liu Bei glanced at Zhang and said.
"Chen Zichuan is prepared for a rainy day. It's normal. People say that Chen Zichuan counts every step. It's not wrong, but it's also strange. He is obviously a man of long-term plans, but he doesn't seem to have a deep mind." Zhang said casually, "Speaking of which,
What's bothering you recently?"
"You may not understand anything else. All you need to know is that the upcoming war has made Zichuan himself a little upset." Liu Bei sighed and said.
Liu Bei had a clear mind and said that he had the whole story, but in fact Liu Bei also knew that Chen Xi had contributed a lot to reaching this point. The country had developed to the point where it could start a full-scale war with one empire and also have friction with another empire. In this kind of situation
In this case, he can still touch the inheritance of Anxi, and Chen Xi deserves his first contribution.
"What's bothering him?" Mrs. Zhang curled her lips and said, "If you feel upset, you should go back to my daughter to comfort her. What's the use of looking for you."
Liu Bei almost rolled his eyes at Zhang's words, "Huh, in short, Chen Zichuan is in a lot of trouble now. Also, take care of the Chamber of Commerce recently to avoid material turnover problems and avoid any big or small troubles. Zichuan may be in trouble recently."
I’ll relax you guys there.”
"..." Mrs. Zhang raised her eyebrows. Although this guy has never had any political sensitivity, after all, she has been in charge of the Zhen family for many years and is proficient in the tricks of holding on to others. At any rate, she is very proficient in business, so compared to
Zhang immediately reacted to what he had said before.
"Well, we will open a new course to recruit scholars next, because there are a lot of vacant official positions, and there will even be some positions that are larger than two thousand shi." Liu Bei did not turn around. After getting along with Zhang for a long time, he figured out Zhang.
With his temperament, this guy really doesn't have much political sensitivity.
In the past, he relied entirely on the Zhen family's reputation for protection, and others did not want to be known as bullying orphans and widowers. Now, he can live quite well relying on Liu Bei's tiger skin.
But that’s okay, Liu Bei feels more at ease if he doesn’t understand this. In comparison, Gan does understand some politics, but it’s not a good thing. If Adou is not the eldest son, Zhang will have no intention of reproducing after giving birth to a daughter. Instead, he likes Adou, and the backyard will be unavoidable.
Restless.
Having said that, it was precisely because Zhang had no such idea at all and he could suppress other concubines that Liu Bei was more indulgent towards Zhang. As for Zhang's business, Liu Bei turned a blind eye and even turned a blind eye.
He also gathered back some of the powers of the Chamber of Commerce and transferred them to Zhang.
"Didn't you deny the method of recruiting scholars by opening a subject? Did you say that you should be compatible with the advantages of the examination system and start from the bottom?" Zhang said casually, what Liu Bei had said to her before when he was talking nonsense.
, "I remember that you said at the time that you were opening up subjects to obtain scholars, and if you directly confer officers, it would not be a good guide for society."
"You remember these things clearly!" Liu Bei laughed dumbly. He didn't expect Zhang to remember so many things.
"Huh huh huh, when the subject was first opened to obtain a bachelor's degree, women were allowed to take the exam. Of course I remember it clearly. If my three girls hadn't been taught well before, I would have made them take the exam too." Zhang
Shi said proudly that she did have this idea at the time.
"Oh, this time, it is still allowed." Liu Bei nodded, "Since we are opening a subject to obtain a scholar, it doesn't matter whether you are a man or a woman. We will treat everyone equally and just rely on your ability to take the exam."
"Those who are married can also take the exam." Mrs. Zhang said suddenly and excitedly. After the news came out that the last time the school was open to recruit women, and it was indeed fair, open and fair, Mrs. Zhang also studied hard after that.
, I guess if I take a math test, I might still get on the list.
"This..." Liu Bei was a little confused when he saw how excited his wife was, but if he wasn't sure, the previous sentence would be as if he hadn't said it at all.
"You don't mean to keep your word, right?" Zhang looked at Liu Bei suspiciously and said, "I'm not going to be an official, I'm just going to take the exam."
Liu Bei just wants to say one thing, if you become an official and don't have my protection, your political consciousness and political level will probably be eaten away by others, even your bones will be left. I really think you are Wang Yi!
"That's okay." Liu Bei said warmly. He really didn't want to argue with his wife about such a detailed matter. Just take the exam and fall in love with whomever you want. Anyway, there are only two people who will become officials after passing the exam. Only one hand can hold on to less than three fingers.
This is the current situation. There were many women who came to take the exam, and there were many women who were ranked before the 300th place. However, most of the official positions were relatively idle, but even so, these guys only worked for a period of time. Just ran away.
The only female official who has actually served from the first scientific examination to the present is Wang Yi, who holds a position of more than two thousand shi, and this position was assigned by Liu Bei himself.
There is no way, after Wang Yi was promoted to the Qianshi position, it would be difficult for Wang Yi to remain as secretive as before, and Wang Yi did not want to rely on Fa Zheng's reputation as before, and directly promoted himself based on merit. To be honest, , Wang Yi's achievements in the Qingxu section of the project, if he were replaced by a man, could steadily rise to two thousand stones, or even go further.
However, such a thing as a ceiling does exist, but in exchange, Wang Yi has a lot of vacations, and is directly led by Sun Qian. Generally, no one can take care of Wang Yi, and after Sun Qian is Chen Xi, although in reality Chen Xi was half a rank higher than Sun Qian, but everyone knew that Chen Xi was just a servant in name only, in fact he was in charge of the prime minister's affairs.
"I really don't understand why those women who came to take the exam in a hurry, and those who did very well in the exam, all resigned in the end?" Liu Bei sighed and said, "There is also a lot of intelligence in them. Such a generation."
"Let's get married." Mrs. Zhang said matter-of-factly, "Think about it, they have all proven their abilities at the national level. Of course there are many people watching, and they will probably be on the list. During that time, the threshold was very high. It must have been trampled to pieces."
"..." Liu Bei was stunned and looked at Zhang with a strange expression, but inexplicably felt that what Zhang said was very reasonable.
"After all, not many people really want to be an official. They want to prove that they are not inferior to men. So it's easy to understand. After the exam, I feel good when I see someone on the list. When I get married, my husband's family will also be sure He pays more attention to it. After all, he is an intelligent person recognized by the country and a good wife who has been appraised." Mrs. Zhang said with a smile, "So if you do well in the exam, it will be easy to get married, and what's the point of being an official, intrigues and intrigues?"
"In other words, my opening of courses to obtain scholars is also a large-scale marriage platform for them?" Liu Bei said with a twitching corner of his mouth.
"Obviously." Mrs. Zhang nodded repeatedly, "The simplest thing is that talent names can be blown out, and the classification methods are different in different places, but the national examination is very clear, and those who are on the list are talented women. Really Talented woman, she has been certified by the state, so rest assured."
"..." Liu Bei said that I was speechless. What you said made so much sense.
"I couldn't distinguish these things before, but now it's much easier. When it comes to scores, if the score is high, then of course the intelligence is high. If the mother is intelligent, the offspring must be smart." Zhang said that this is much more reliable than neighbors introducing each other, "and It’s easy to marry someone who’s on the list and run a family!”
