Section Nine hundred and sixty-third the sought-after Mohist scholar
"Your Majesty, this is incredible!" Liu Che was sighing when suddenly a eunuch hurried over to report: "The young minister and the guard are fighting!"
"What's going on?" Liu Che asked in shock.
Liu She, the Shaofu, is Liu Che's henchman and the first of the Four Vajras.
But the current guard is not a good person either!
It’s Wujiang Hou Zhuang Ying!
Speaking of Zhuang Ying, many people may be unfamiliar with it.
But his son Zhuang Qingzhai is famous.
It was the idiot prime minister who had cheated Zhang Tang to death and himself in history.
If the Wujiang Hou family can push a descendant to the position of prime minister in the future, their energy will naturally be indispensable.
The first Wujiang Hou Zhuang did not know that he was the younger brother of Xiao He, the famous prime minister in the early Han Dynasty.
He was also very capable, and he achieved many military exploits in the Chu-Han struggle for hegemony.
Of course, more importantly, he followed the Gao Emperor Liu Bang and defeated the rebellion of Jiujiang Wang Yingbu.
This became the reason why he was made a marquis.
The old banker has always been inconspicuous in the Han army.
But its power slowly grew.
Especially with the demise of Zan Hou, Liu Hou, Qu Nihou and other giants, his family naturally inherited part of the connections and relationships of the old ministers.
After Li Guang was sent to Longyou by Liu Che to serve as General of Light Vehicles, he was actually the commander of the new army camp.
Zhuang Ying became a guard officer naturally and without a doubt.
I have the qualifications, the status is sufficient, and I have some abilities.
The guards are not his, are they still the young ones who have just emerged?
"My slave heard that it was because the Weiwei had robbed the young master of the Shaofu's examination of five scholars. The Weiwei was so angry that he led his men to block the door of the Shaofuqing..." The eunuch gasped and said: "Young Master
The minister then led his retainers to fight with the guards..."
"Damn it!" Liu Che cursed in his heart.
The eunuch didn't say anything, but Liu Che still forgot about it.
After the examination this year, the Mohist family won the first prize.
The fifty-seven scholars they sent were all admitted!
Then, he was robbed by Jiuqing Yamen.
The young master opened his mouth first and wanted to swallow it all. The reason was: Of course a Mohist scholar is the most suitable one for the young master.
But the prime minister, the internal history, the Weiwei, Zhi Jinwu and Taichang all refused to agree.
In the end, these guys kept wrangling and brought the lawsuit to Liu Che.
In the end, it was Liu Che who made the decision, allowing the Mohist scholars to freely choose their positions.
But what is the situation now?
"Tell me carefully, what exactly happened?" Liu Che asked.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, this is what happened..." The eunuch knelt on the ground and reported: "It is said that originally, the Weiwei had recruited those five people and promised them the position of crossbow school captain... However, the Shaofu Qing secretly
I persuaded Mo Yuan to intercept those five scholars..."
After Liu Che heard this, he immediately couldn't laugh or cry.
This is also the embarrassment faced by scholars who are taking exams now.
The largest number were naturally scholars from various Confucian sects.
These people account for more than 70% of the total number.
only……
There is a mixed bag of good and bad, and there are too many novices who are rote, rigid-minded or naive.
All the yamen in Jiuqing expressed their displeasure: We are not happy to teach Xiaobai.
They just want Legalists who are more mature, have healthier thoughts, and look at issues more objectively.
Or scholars from the Huanglao sect who can speak a common language with them.
As for Confucian scholars, unless their personal abilities are outstanding, they can leave a deep enough impression on the interviewer during the interview, or they have strong connections, otherwise, the opinion of Jiuqing Yamen is: you should go to the grassroots level to practice for a few years.
, when they become talented, we will harvest them again.
This is normal.
Wouldn’t future generations of companies prefer to spend a lot of money to recruit talents trained by others, but few would be willing to take the trouble to teach newcomers step by step?
But, when I arrived at the Mohist scholars.
The situation is reversed.
The various yamen of Jiuqing do so out of considerations of flattery or actual needs.
They all said: Brother! Brother! Come to my place, you can choose the position! It is allowed within the scope of the policy, you can do whatever you want.
Even Da Honglu came out to join in the fun and said: Our yamen is also very suitable for the development of Mohist scholars!
Of course, this malicious act of cuteness and naked flattery was ignored by others.
The competition for the fifty-six candidates for examination is really fierce among the army and the young government officials.
The military's idea is simple.
Mohist scholars were good at manufacturing and repairing equipment. At the same time, they were smart and could always come up with many ideas to help them solve many problems they encountered in equipment practice.
Moreover, if there is a Mohist scholar in an army, it will undoubtedly be very beneficial for the army to inquire about Mohist intelligence and explore Mohist new inventions and new equipment.
Not to mention, the appearance of a Mohist scholar meant that this army basically no longer had to worry about equipment failures.
Therefore, all the military leaders opened their mouths one after another.
Liu Che and the Mohist family also supported the young people of the Mohist family to go to the army to practice.
After all, only by living and training with the military in person, and seeing with your own eyes the actual use of various weapons and equipment, can we make better targeted improvements and improvements, and can we truly manufacture various weapons according to the actual needs of the military.
And those gadgets that may seem inconspicuous, but are actually extremely useful to the military.
Therefore, the Huben Guards, the Yulin Guards, plus the Xiliu Camp and other main field armies, you three and I four, in the blink of an eye, divided up the Mohist scholars, leaving only seven or eight people, which is considered a consolation prize.
, for the Shaofu and the guards to compete.
Now, both Wei Wei and the Mo family were anxious.
To be fair, the Northern and Southern armies controlled by Weiwei are in great need of Mohist scholars. Although they are in Chang'an, they can go to the nearby Mo Garden to invite Mohist scholars to inspect the Northern and Southern armies. They can even lose face and rely on the convenience of their positions.
, establish a good relationship with the Mo family.
But the problem is that both the northern and southern armies are gearing up, thinking that they can still go into battle and gain military glory the next time they go out.
In this way, it is necessary for the army to have several Mohist scholars and a group of accompanying medical officers from the Imperial Medical Office.
The medical officers and doctors trained by the Imperial Medical Office were assigned by Liu Che before the battle.
They have no control over this.
But the importance of Mohist scholars to the Northern and Southern armies was as strong as the need for various logistics technicians for the mechanized armies of later generations.
No one wants their crossbow to jam at a critical moment.
No one wants to see friendly forces frantically harvesting heads, while our own side can only watch the actions of friendly forces because of some minor problems.
Especially since Wei Wei Zhuang Ying had just taken office, it was the time to win people's hearts.
At this juncture, Liu She resorted to despicable means to intercept others.
It would be strange if Zhuang Ying didn't explode!
But Liu She also had plenty of reasons.
His young mansion lacks high-quality talents from the Mo family.
If the Mohist family does not have enough scholars and the production speed of weapons and equipment is affected, who will bear this responsibility?
Liu Che rubbed his temples and said to the eunuch: "Go and pass on my order and have the Weiwei and the Young Master come to see me immediately!"
Liu's ministers would fight whenever they disagreed. This tradition is notorious.
But you can't blame others.
The only one to blame is the old Liu family themselves.
Because the person who took the lead in fighting the ministers with his retainers was none other than the Supreme Emperor Liu Taigong.
But now, Liu Che always felt a little embarrassed when the three princes and nine ministers were fighting each other so violently.
Of course, this kind of thing is actually what Liu Che wants to see.
The Mo family is too weak now.
The population is thin, and succession is difficult.
If the Mohists were to play their own tricks now, Liu Che estimated that in another ten years, the number of Mohists in the Han Dynasty would not exceed a thousand.
If engineers and scientists don't have more than a thousand engineers and scientists, they won't be able to do many things.
And is there any better propaganda than the gossip about Jiuqing's bureaucracy robbing Mohist scholars, the two giants eager for talents, and fighting each other for talents?
there is none left!
Think about the time when Song Zhenzong's "Poetry to Encourage Learning" made many landlords and nobles eagerly send their sons and nephews to study?
To the general public, they don’t care whether Confucianism or Mohism is better!
Only academics would think about this kind of thing.
Most ordinary people send their children and nephews to study, isn't it just to make them stand out?
On this issue, Confucianism, Legalism, Mohism, Huang and Lao all have the same status.
If Confucianism is stronger and it is better to be an official, everyone will learn Confucianism.
If Legalism is more valued, then everyone will study the Fa.
By the same token, if the Mohist family is favored and popular.
Liu Che had no doubt that all the landowners and merchants in the world would frantically try their best to seduce their children into the Mo family.
These are all things that happened in history.
Emperor Wu dismissed all schools of thought and only respected Confucianism.
Legalists, Huang-Lao sects, political strategists, and I don’t know how many people in the world have quietly changed their factions to Confucianism.
