408, the time to take Bashu has come (please complete the order)
as expected.
In the palace examination, Bai Gui used "The Mysterious Bird of Destiny" as the first question to assess the students. And the answers of these scholars were also very clever. They answered this question with "Although Zhou was an old country, its destiny was restored."
The mysterious bird of destiny descended and gave birth to Shang.
This refers to the destiny of merchants. The Song Dynasty in the Spring and Autumn Period was the remnant of merchants. Bai Gui took the title of destiny black bird and asked again, "Is destiny now in Qin or Song?"
Based on recent rumors...
This is forcing the candidates in the imperial examination to stand in line.
If you stand in the wrong position, not only will you lose your reputation, but you may also be killed.
Candidates are also very aware of current affairs.
Although Zhou was an old state, its destiny was restored.
It alludes to the fact that the destiny of heaven has now reached Bai Gui, the king of Qin.
The land of Qin, or Yongzhou, was originally the old land of the Zhou people.
Zhou Dynasty, Shang Dynasty, Qin Dynasty and Song Dynasty.
The knowledge of the candidates was within Bai Gui's expectation. However, among the 134 candidates who took the palace examination, not even a single loyal minister of the Song Dynasty was found, which was beyond his expectation.
Through the ages, those who dare to usurp the throne will inevitably be scolded.
But after thinking about the virtues of the Song Dynasty and the emperor Qinzong Zhao Huan of the Song Dynasty, he understood the mood of these imperial examination scholars.
Although loyal ministers are seen as honest, but... how can anyone come to support such a disgraceful emperor?
Furthermore, Qin and Longdi came back from the restoration of Bai Gui. The local scholar class has long lost their respect and loyalty to the Song Dynasty. Now the candidates for the palace examination should not make a decision too easily.
Although the land of Qin was lost to the Song Dynasty for a short period of time, the scholar class in Qin actually did not have much favorable impression of the Song Dynasty. Not to mention the loss of Qin land, it was just that in the Northern Song Dynasty, people from the south were selected through imperial examinations.
More and more people are passing the examination than people from the north are passing the examination...
For example, Zhang Yuan, the failed student of the Renzong Dynasty, was a native of Huayin in the Qin Dynasty. When he was young, this man was "a self-motivated man with a sense of responsibility", "a spirited and suave man, and a talented man". However, because he failed in many tests, he finally joined his friend Wu Hao.
Li Yuanhao, who ruthlessly took refuge in Xixia, eventually became Xixia's Prime Minister.
In the Battle of Haoshuichuan, Zhang Yuan assisted the Xia army, and the Song army alone suffered more than 10,000 casualties. Zhang Yuan also wrote a poem in Jieshang Temple: "Xia Song has never stood tall, Han Qi is not surprising. The dragons and tigers in Sichuan are all
Chariot, I still talk about military aircraft."
At the end of the poem, Zhang Yuan left a series of his own official positions, including Grand Master, Shangshu Ling, and Zhongshu Ling.
Han Qi and Xia Song were the prime ministers of the Song Dynasty at that time.
To say that Zhang Yuan has no talent is definitely impossible.
Zhang Yuan is just a microcosm of these scholars in Qin.
Nowadays, Bai Gui holds the imperial examination to select scholars, and all the scholars he selects are from Qinlong. These people are too late to be happy, so how can they praise the Song Dynasty?
…
evening.
Qin Palace, Meeting Hall.
“People’s support is available.”
Tang Hong set the tone for today's palace examination candidates and said.
People do not refer to ordinary people. They refer to these Qinlong scholars. Bai Gui opened the imperial examination to obtain scholars, and those who can come to participate in the imperial examination are mostly local wealthy households. Now, taking these scholars is equivalent to winning over
The gentry class in Qin and Long areas.
The gentry are the people and the common people.
"I have taken over Guanlong and Guanlong. Although the Xia Kingdom has imperial examination scholars and hundreds of officials, they can only select one or two for use. Now that the Chang'an scientific examination has been completed, these imperial examination scholars will be placed in Qin
Longzhou, as the governor..."
Bai Gui nodded and said.
"Assassin?"
Tang Hong was surprised.
Although Cishi is another name for Zhizhou, Bai Gui's words are not like setting Zhizhou, but he wants to turn the false title of Cishi into a real official again.
"The Song Dynasty had three major disadvantages: redundant officials, redundant soldiers, and redundant administration."
"Officials have official duties and errands, which are too complicated and I don't want to take them. Redundant officials lead to redundant administration, and too much expenditure is spent every year..."
"Now that the New Deal has been established, if we want to change it, we must change it completely."
Bai Gui said in a deep voice.
Shiguan is the official title of the old Three Provinces and Six Ministries system. For example, Yuanwailang, Shangshu, and Pushe. However, in the Song Dynasty, these official titles were separated from the actual positions. The official name was only used to indicate the official position and the level of salary, so it was called Jilu Official.
.Dispatch refers to an official position that is "established due to events and removed afterwards". For example, the full name of Zhizhou is "the right to know the affairs of a certain military state", which is a dispatch officer.
These three shortcomings led to the emergence of many good generals in the Song Dynasty, but they were unable to win the battle.
The reason is that the Song Dynasty selected talents nationwide. Since the end of the Tang Dynasty and the Five Dynasties, due to the chaos in the vassal towns, there were many generals. Therefore, there were generals. However, the three shortcomings made the Song Dynasty really like a separatist force, with no power.
The internal friction was serious, so there were no soldiers and no food.
Strategy cannot defeat people. No matter how great the tactics are, unless there is a big victory, it will just be a small fight.
"Although the Song Dynasty had many disadvantages, this method could prevent rebellion."
Tang Hong advised.
These three disadvantages are not without their advantages. The advantage is that they can avoid local rebellions to the greatest extent.
"This method was chosen in the early Song Dynasty to avoid rebellion in the Five Dynasties feudal towns..."
"To govern troubled times, use heavy codes. On the contrary, if it is a prosperous time, the punishments will be light and the world will be lenient. Now there are no vassal towns to cause trouble, and there is no need to continue this bad government."
Bai Guidao.
As long as there is no trouble in the center, it is almost impossible for the place to expand. Furthermore, if he is the human emperor, he will be an immortal who will live forever. For him, this small trouble is not worth worrying about.
things.
To correct the three evils, we need to reform grassroots organizations.
Only in this way can the strength of the entire feudal court be utilized.
In this case, even if the people ruled by Guan and Long were not half as many as those in the Southern Song Dynasty, the strength of the violent troops would be far greater than that of the Southern Song Dynasty.
"The King of Qin has a far-sighted vision."
Tang Hong praised.
He just did his best to serve as a minister and reminded Bai Gui that deep down in his heart, he was still willing to reform the system. Several reforms such as Yuanfeng's reform and Jianyan's reform also showed that the Song Dynasty was aware of the problem of redundant officials.
But the disadvantages have been accumulated for too long, and even if you want to change them, it is difficult to change them.
Now that Qin Long is completely blank, it would be easier to set the tone from the beginning.
"Thank you, father-in-law."
"It's late. My son-in-law won't accompany his father-in-law anymore. Sister Huixian is still waiting for me."
After discussing political affairs, Bai Gui stood up, cupped his hands, and said with a smile.
Although in the court, they were monarchs and ministers, privately they were still father-in-law and son-in-law. At this time, calling them this way in private can also easily enhance their relationship.
"King Qin, walk slowly."
Tang Hong bowed, not daring to exceed the courtesy.
Although Tang Wan is his daughter and Bai Gui is his son-in-law, today is different from the past. Bai Gui can call him father-in-law in private out of affection, but he cannot be arrogant about it.
"By the way, King Qin, there is one more thing."
"King Kang built a large number of passes near Jianzhou and levied civil service, which aroused public resentment. Many people in Bashu have fled to Qin, and the people of Bashu have long been resentful towards the Song Dynasty..."
Tang Hong stopped Bai Gui and talked about this matter.
Commercial taxation in the world is the only one of the four Shu.
When the Song Dynasty ruled Shu, it treated Shu differently. As a result, Wang Xiaobo and Li Shun rebelled in Bashu, a prosperous land. Shi Pudu, who chased Li Shun's uprising army, said: "The rebellion in Shu was caused by Fu Li
In an emergency, farmers are unemployed and unable to survive, so they fall into the hands of thieves."
Zhao Kuangyin also said: "Sichuan people miss Meng Chang and never forget him."
It's not that Meng Chang, the leader of Later Shu, managed Shu very well, but that the Song Dynasty exploited Bashu too much.
"Zhao Gou lost his virtue, and Bashu will not be restored."
Bai Gui chuckled lightly.
When he captured Jianzhou, he guessed that Zhao Gou would do this.
"In July, send troops to Bashu."
"Now I order learned men to write a memorial and send it to the states of Shu."
He ordered.
The time to take over Bashu has not come yet. There is only public dissatisfaction now, but it is not serious. And he sent the message to force Zhao Gou to make this opportunity more mature.
This is conspiracy.
No matter what Zhao Gou did, he was still making wedding clothes for him.
