Xu Nian nodded." Look, Mother. This method can be said to be killing two birds with one stone!" Perfect!"
"About this, didn't you just say that most of the officials in the court are from noble families? If the imperial examination was used to select talents from all over the world, the number of officials from aristocratic families would be greatly reduced. At that time, wouldn't the aristocratic families collapse on their own?”
"There is another thing. You said that the scholars in the world are led by aristocratic families. Mother, why?"
"Isn't it because of the current method of selecting officials?”
"If a scholar has an ideal and wants to rule the world, what else can he do other than being an official? If he wanted to become an official, what should he do now? Isn't it just to be recommended?"
"Look, who's the big head who recommended you? Wasn't he still a noble clan? Therefore, it was not difficult to understand why scholars all over the world competed to lick the stinking feet of the aristocratic families. If the imperial examinations were popular, scholars would not have to look at the faces of the aristocratic families.”
"Moreover, once the imperial examination was released, scholars and aristocratic families immediately became enemies. That's right, enemies!”
"At that time, the hearts of scholars will naturally lean towards the Imperial Court.”
"Wouldn't that be great?"
"I guess so."
Xu Nian grinned.
He could be said to have analyzed it very clearly.
Empress Zhangsun let out a long sigh as she listened to Xu Nian's analysis.
That was it!
That was it!
The effects of the imperial examinations seemed to be aligned with the foundation of the aristocratic families. If the imperial examinations could be implemented, the selection of officials would be entirely in the court. Wouldn't it be easy for the Emperor to control the world?
Empress Zhangsun fell silent.
She pursed her dry lips.
Xu Nian's words could be said to have opened up a new path for them.
They had never thought about this before.
That's right!
That's right!
That was it!
The more Empress Zhangsun thought about it, the more she felt that it was appropriate.
It could be said that the imperial examination was the only way to solve this predicament.
Xu Nian's words could be said to have explained the imperial examination thoroughly. Empress Zhangsun's eyes lit up.
She stared at Xu Nian, took a deep breath, and said,""Nian 'er, how did you think of this idea?”
"His Majesty and the others didn't seem to think of this at all.”
Empress Zhangsun was shocked.
She really did not expect Xu Nian's mind to be so powerful.
It was as if he had completely defeated Li Shiming and the other High Dukes!
Xu Nian smiled." This method is not bad. But, mother, tell Li Er that you know that this method is brilliant, but the noble families are not stupid. They also know that this method is specially used to deal with them."”
"Haha…I believe that if Li Shi Min dared to bring up this idea, the clan would come up with a different way to deal with it.”
"Be careful not to repeat the same mistakes. The Great Tang will become the second Great Sui."
At this point, Empress Zhangsun's expression suddenly changed.
"Ah?"
"This…"
Empress Zhangsun was stunned.
That's right!
He was only thinking about the benefits just now. The noble families must also be wary of this method.
Look at the Great Sui and Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty. These were all lessons.
The Sui Dynasty was gone, but the aristocratic families of the Sui Dynasty had not changed. They were still dancing happily and living comfortably.
The aristocratic family was still the same aristocratic family.
Terrifying!
A thousand-year clan, a hundred-year dynasty.
At this moment, Empress Zhangsun also completely understood the meaning of Xu Nian's words.
"Then…"
"This…"
"Isn't it still useless?"
Empress Zhangsun grabbed the corner of her clothes and asked nervously.
"Hahaha…"
"Mother!"
"Look at how scared you are."
"I was just scaring you."
Xu Nian couldn't help but laugh.
This was the first time he had seen his mother so stern.
Empress Zhangsun stared at Xu Nian blankly for a long time before she reacted. She immediately grabbed Xu Nian's ear.
"Stinky brat, you dare to make fun of your mother.”
" Aiyaya…Mother, mother, it hurts, it hurts…" Xu Nian screamed.
Empress Zhangsun quickly let go of her hand, then gently blew on it a few times and rubbed it for Xu Nian.
"Brat, you're so shocked.”
"But why wouldn't the Great Tang?”
Empress Zhangsun asked.
"Haiya, after all, the Great Tang is not the Great Sui. During the Great Sui, military power was scattered, and a portion of it was controlled by the aristocratic families.”
"As for the Great Tang, all these years of fighting have been in Li Er's hands.”
"Thus, if the imperial examinations meet with too much resistance, Li Er will at most stop, but there will be no danger of the Great Tang being overturned.”
"After fighting for so many years, so many people have died. It can be said that the military strength of the noble clan is not much left.”
Xu Nian explained.
When Empress Zhangsun heard this, she immediately understood.
She looked at Xu Nian and couldn't help but feel conflicted.
At this moment, she suddenly felt that it would be great if Xu Nian was really her son.
Such knowledge, such wisdom, none of his children could compare to him.
It seemed that even His Majesty was lacking.
"Mother knows." Empress Zhangsun sighed.
"Nian 'er, you're incredibly intelligent and can see through problems, even more so than those people whose names shake the Great Tang.”
Empress Zhangsun was truly convinced.
Admirable.
He was completely impressed.
"Does it still hurt?" Empress Zhangsun rubbed Xu Nian's ears again.
"Mother, it's alright." Xu Nian said casually.
"Hmm…It's good that you're alright. I've been out for quite some time today. Mother, I have to go back.”
Empress Zhangsun said.
She was a little anxious.
She wanted to tell Li Shi Min these words.
This method was shocking. Xu Nian had thoroughly analyzed the pros and cons of everything he had said.
Perhaps, to break the blockade of the aristocratic families, he really had to start with the imperial examination system.
He wondered how shocked His Majesty would be when he heard this.
How should he choose?
