This great meeting is related to the next direction of the Great Qin Empire.
Therefore, more than three hundred officials from all over the world, large and small, gathered here to discuss state affairs.
In the history of China going back two thousand years, apart from the tribal abdication system in the Yan and Huang dynasties, there has never been such a grand event.
This is also what Qin Feng proposed, democratic centralism.
It can be seen that the civil servants gathered around Zhang Liang, Xiao He, and Chen Ping accounted for 70% of the people.
The number of generals gathered around Han Xin, Meng Tian, and Zhang Han was as high as 90%!
When Qin Feng slowly walked to the front under the attention of everyone, he found that Ying Ziying had already folded his sleeves and was standing there with a smile.
Seeing Qin Feng's arrival, he immediately bowed respectfully and said:
"I have met the Prime Minister."
Qin Feng quickly returned the greeting in fear:
"I've met Master Ziying."
Ying Ziying's position is actually very embarrassing. He clearly has no specific official position, but he stands at the forefront.
But almost all the remaining officials gathered around him.
And most of them are doctors and censors.
Although they were a little frightened when they saw Qin Feng, most of them were a little angry, which made Shusun Tong very embarrassed.
Because since Xiao He became the deputy envoy of the prime minister, Chen Ping replaced the imperial officer, and Shusun Tong also rose to the top and became the imperial censor!
In name, these censors and doctors are all his subordinates.
Qin Feng initially supported him as the talker, but after he became the talker, Te Miao's words were not very easy to use!
The previous appointment of students from the Royal Institute of Technology of the Qin Empire to fill the positions of censor and doctor was almost invalidated with the end of the war.
Because every student has been carefully taught by hundreds of schools of thought.
Staying in the court and talking nonsense is a waste of talent!
They should go to various war-torn counties and villages and lead the people there to get rid of poverty and become rich. Only then can the population realize their own value!
Therefore, the Yushi and Yanguan are still the same group of people as before, and they are also the same group of people with Chunyu Yue.
Although they are afraid of Qin Feng, they are not afraid of death. They are always ready to seize Qin Feng's leverage and impeach him at the risk of death.
If you were lucky enough to change your life, wouldn't it mean that you would become famous all over the world?
Shusuntong's expression became more and more embarrassed. He smiled bitterly and whispered:
"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, it's not that I don't work hard, it's just that these people are incompetent.
I didn't even dare to go to the doctor's mansion for fear of being beaten to death by them.
How about just replacing them all? It would be easy anyway!
It just so happens that we have some good fellow villagers in our hometown in Taishan, and they are all our own. It is absolutely reliable to recommend them to come here."
Qin Feng glanced at him and said lightly:
"What? You want to bring the dog back home to be a police dog?"
Shusun Tong suddenly felt embarrassed and said:
"How can it be possible? Isn't this just a shortage of manpower?
These people are all here for being filial and honest. They have a very good reputation and are very filial."
Qin Feng couldn't help but fell silent. A group of filial piety?
Is it the same kind of filial piety that Wang Li carried Wang Jian from his hometown to Xianyang all day and night when he was a traitor?
It's still the same Confucian way. If you are filial, you can be an official, but if you are unfilial, you can't be an official.
The problem is, whether filial piety or not is entirely decided by the village elders.
Qin Feng couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart when he thought about the story of someone lying on the ice in the middle of the winter to impress the carp out of filial piety; thinking about the story of someone burying his son out of filial piety to his mother.
Although it sounds nonsense, if such ruthless people really become officials, will they treat the people well?
This horse-riding is just for the sake of becoming an official, no matter what the means, right?
If you can bury your own son with your own hands, will you blink when you bury other people's sons?
In fact, the fundamental reason is to get rich!
If you want to eat fish, you can always eat fish from the fish ponds. If you want to support your parents, you can have enough food!
We must let the land and means of production be in the hands of the people, not the hands of the village elders.
Let schools be built all over the world, and let everyone have a channel for advancement.
Filial piety is indeed good, but it should not be closely entangled with utilitarianism!
Qin Feng had no intention of explaining it to Shusun Tong, or in other words, he didn't understand it even after he explained it.
After all, after decades of education like this, it would be extremely difficult to turn things around.
So Qin Feng said lightly:
“To select talents, you need to pass exams, and they need to be divided into liberal arts and sciences.
If you want to become an official with liberal arts, you should start from the countryside and have the consciousness to be a great person.
Science majors will enter the Daqin Workshop or the Mohist Experimental Base, and they must have the belief to devote their whole life to perfecting the steam engine."
Shusun Tong was stunned for a moment when he was told this, and he subconsciously replied:
"Then there is still room for cheating in the exam."
But as soon as he finished speaking, he regretted it.
Qin Feng's face turned terrifyingly cold for a moment, making people feel as if they had fallen into an ice cellar!
And his words are even more chilling:
"It doesn't matter. Those who assist cheaters are nothing more than examiners.
Skinned and stuffed with grass, he stood in front of the Confucius statue in the Confucian Temple and was despised by people for generations.
Their children are not allowed to be officials or enter the academy for the third generation.
If there are people who are not afraid of death, just cheat."
His voice was not quiet, so that everyone at the front of the team could hear him clearly.
This is the first time Qin Feng has made such terrifying remarks.
Only then did people discover that Qin Feng was still the frightened Qin Feng, and he would not change just because he became the prime minister!
Ying Ziying couldn't help but persuade her:
"Your Majesty, Prime Minister, are you too cruel?
It’s not necessary, right? Those who cheat will never be hired.”
"That's right, it's too scary to peel off the skin and fill it with grass."
"We will become criminals in history this day."
"How should future generations view us?"
Qin Feng chuckled and said disdainfully:
"How do you view us? How do you view me?
I don’t need others to look at me! Fame? I don’t need it either!”
Ying Ziying sighed and persuaded with earnest words:
"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, please think twice. This is worse than the punishment of being burned."
Qin Feng's face darkened, he folded his sleeves with his hands, looked around, and said coldly:
"If you don't want me to see your shit in the Confucian Temple, then I hope you can be more honest in the future.
Da Qin's scientific research will become the last line of defense to maintain Da Qin's rule! It is the bottom line!
If even the most basic fairness cannot be maintained, then gradually a clan and a wealthy family will form!ωωw.
Regardless of whether they are a wealthy family or a wealthy family, they will never love this country deeply. They must love their own family selfishly!
But those children from poor families who came out of the academy were different. The moment His Majesty appointed them to become officials.
They will definitely bind their destiny to Da Qin deeply! They will not rest until death!"
Qin Feng's words were so shocking that everyone turned their attention.
What's more, his face started to turn a little pale.
Because they used various arrangements to stuff their sons and nephews into the court.
After the scientific examination is reformed, these people will probably be the first to be reviewed by the Ministry of Civil Affairs!
Qin Feng's tone softened slightly and finally added:
"My son Ying... Bah, Qin Xuanche, if he cannot pass the scientific examination, he will not be allowed to enter the official career!"
