"Yes…"
When Li Si heard that, he immediately nodded as if he had met a soulmate." Young Master's words are wise!”
He said with emotion," The descendants of the rich and powerful will definitely form the Great Qin Dynasty in the future. Even though our Great Qin doesn't have any hereditary titles or lords, most of the officials in the Imperial Court have been brought here by Old Qin. Although the other positions were given to Dongfang Guichen, most of them were idle positions. In the long run, the power of the imperial court would weaken.”
"My son, that makes sense. I understand what Minister Li is worried about…"
Hearing this, Ying Zheng sighed and said," Even so, the Great Qin Empire and I cannot leave them.”
That's right. As a ruler, the most difficult thing was not that you didn't foresee the dangers and inadequacies of the imperial court and the world. It was that you had predicted and understood it, but there was nothing you could do.
The helplessness of an emperor was the heaviest helplessness in the world.
Most emperors, especially wise rulers, had experienced this feeling personally.
They also wanted to change, but the price of changing was too high. There were too many things that needed to be given up and taken risks.
Change was equivalent to changing the blood of the entire empire.
Could the Empire not be in danger of losing blood?
If he was not careful, he would at least get sick!
"Your son naturally understands Imperial Father's worries.”
Zhao Long chuckled." However, your son believes that there might be a way to select talents from all over the world to help the Imperial Court without touching the interests of many nobles.”
"Oh? Is this the imperial examination system you were talking about?”
"Father, yes."
Zhao Long said," Your son's imperial examination system is to pass many tests to select talents from the people.”
"Oh, really?"
Ying Zheng smiled and said," Then, if you select the talents and let them enter the imperial court, then these old Qin nobles in the imperial court won't be able to stop you?”
"Imperial Father, just like what your son demonstrated to Minister Feng and Minister Li today.”
Zhao Long laughed." If there are only so many things, there definitely won't be enough to split. Everyone wants it, so naturally, they'll fight for it. However, if there were enough things, he wouldn't care too much about what you have.”
Huh?
Hearing Zhao Long's words, Ying Zheng's face changed, and so did Li Si's.
"What do you mean?"
"Please explain, Young Master."
"Hehe, Imperial Father and Minister Li, that's what I think.”
Zhao Long smiled and said," The imperial court will select talents from all over the world every once in a while. Three hundred of the sons of the powerful and influential families of Old Qin will be selected, and three hundred will be selected from other places. However, if Old Qin was from a powerful family, then thirty to fifty talents would be selected in the end. As for those who were not Old Qin, they would only be given ten shares. In comparison, didn't Old Qin have an advantage? Tell me, can their resentment still be that great?”
That's right, I'm giving you more opportunities. If you still can't grasp them, then you can only say that you're useless…
"Hehe, Young Master is pushing the boat with the current. It's easy to fish in troubled waters!”
Li Si couldn't help but laugh.
"Something like that…"
Zhao Long smiled." If this matter is brought up in the imperial court, then tell the nobles. The standard for new officials in the court was either ten or thirty to fifty dignitaries and ten local talents. They can choose for themselves. I think there will naturally be more people who choose the former. If we choose the latter, only a few people will benefit. The other nobles won't be able to get any benefits. In any case, they can't wait for us. Why can't they hate these officials who oppose the former?”
"Haha, wonderful…"
Hearing this, Ying Zheng smiled and said," Diverting the trouble to the east and fishing in troubled waters, this strategy is excellent!”
He looked at Zhao Long and said with a gratified smile," I'm very pleased that my son has such a smart plan. I didn't expect that my son, who only cared about playing, was actually very wise.”
A fool?
Haha…
Zhao Longxin thought to himself,'That son of yours in the past wasn't a fool. He was really stupid…'
"Imperial Father, your son requests that the matter of selecting talents among the people be handed over to your son?”
Zhao Long blinked and said," I'll leave the matter of Old Qin's selection of talents to Minister Feng. If he's not fair, there will naturally be people who will blame him. If the person he chooses is mediocre and useless, the Imperial Court will kick him out! He, Feng Quji, would instead bear the reputation of having bad eyesight.”
Haha…
Hearing Zhao Long's words, Ying Zheng was delighted.
My son is still the one who's insulting…
