However, Mr. Mirror has been able to stand firm for so many years. No matter how many people intimidate and induce him, he has never wavered in his position. It is indeed not something that Li Chen can change easily.
What Li Chen wants is the reputation of Mr. Mirror.
If he wants to place someone in the cabinet, Mr. Jingzhi is the most suitable person in the entire Daqin.
Because anyone else who goes there will face the end of being ignored and then killed by Zhao Xuanji.
Only Mr. Mirror's reputation can keep the situation under control.
But it was this fame that made Li Chen somewhat defensive.
Once Mr. Jingzhi comes to vote sincerely, Li Chen's status in the minds of scholars all over the world will skyrocket. This status is difficult to replace with anything else, so this is why Li Chen came all the way and spent all his energy.
The fundamental starting point is to convince Mr. Jingzhi to join the court as an official.
Thinking of this, Li Chen said: "Since you really don't have this ambition, I can't force you."
After finishing speaking, without waiting for Mr. Jingzhi and Su Jinpa to express their reactions, Li Chen immediately said, "Sir, do you know where the big problem in the imperial court is now?"
Mr. Mirror frowned and said, "I don't know."
Li Chen smiled and said meaningfully: "In Confucianism."
"Nowadays, the civil servants are strong and the military generals are declining. However, the current empire needs military generals to stand up and support the backbone. Civil servants can govern the country, but they cannot cure the disease. As the gentleman said, the country is sick, and the cause of this serious disease is
It is time for those civil servants to change their situation of emphasizing civility and suppressing military power."
"More than three hundred years ago, during the founding period of the People's Republic of China, the imperial court selected the top candidates in civil and military subjects. Later, gradually, the top candidates in liberal arts were the first, followed by the top candidates in martial arts. In the past hundred years, the imperial examination in martial arts has been completely abandoned, so I want to
Restart martial arts."
"In the future, the talents selected by the imperial court will first take the martial arts test. As for the liberal arts, they will be optional."
Li Chen looked at Mr. Jingzhi, whose expression changed drastically, and chuckled: "What do you think, sir?"
Mr. Jingzhi stared at Li Chen and said sadly: "Your Highness, this is the root of a scholar!"
"Where do you start talking about this?"
Li Chen said calmly: "If a student wants to study, he should just study. He has a literary mind and criticizes the current ills. This is the inherent right of a scholar. However, the imperial court no longer wants to see these scholars, so he will not force the imperial court to be scolded.
, and at the same time give these scholars high-ranking officials and generous salaries? This is too harsh."
As he spoke, Li Chen looked at the angry Mr. Jingzhi with a half-smile, and said: "It's just that when the time comes, all the scholars in the world will know that I made such a determination after leaving Mr. Jingzhi, and they should
How do you think? How should Mr. Mirror deal with the world's scholars?"
Li Chen's extremely shameless words made Mr. Jingzhi's face turn red with anger.
I don't know how many people, including the Daxing Emperor and the vassal princes, wanted Mr. Jingzhi to work for them, but Mr. Jingzhi refused one by one, but no one would threaten him directly without any lower limit like Li Chen.
The most important thing is that this threat really has a hold on Mr. Mirror's life.
Mr. Jingzhi said angrily: "Your Highness's actions are not afraid of causing chaos in the world? Scholars, although they have no power to tie a chicken, the pen in their hands is the sharpest knife in the world. Not only can it kill people, but it can also kill people.
Nail a person to the pillar of shame and be infamous for eternity!"
