6 Yao and Huang Yi talked for a while. 6 Yao appeared again, this gentleman actually had some research on the law of the nine rank officials of this dynasty. And his perspective on the problem is quite unique, unlike the futile criticism of the system itself.
Since the Wei and Jin dynasties, the selection of talents has only been based on the Nine Grades Official Law. This system began with the establishment of Chen Qun, a famous minister during the former Wei Wen Emperor, and was caused by the funeral of Cao Wei and the end of the Han Dynasty, and the flow of people and the lack of detailed information, so it was necessary to establish an objective and effective talent selection system in order to provide a talent supply for the increasingly large imperial court. Compared with the inspection system of the Han Dynasty, it is a perfect system to appoint the large and small zhongzheng of each prefecture and county, and make them perform their duties and visit the scholars of the same nationality; Clarification of the three selection criteria of form, quality, and cutting and grading based on them is an important improvement in objectivity. When these two aspects were first implemented, it was claimed that the advantages and disadvantages of the people were covered by talents, not for the high and low of the family, and later generations also praised and said: "The township is clear, not limited to the title, and the praise and disapproval are enough to exhort." ”
There can be no doubt that this system is a good governance against the ills of the time. However, just as countless good governments have rapidly corrupted and degenerated since the founding of the Great Jin Dynasty, the Jiupin Official Law has also lightning deviated from its original intention. In the context of extravagance and corruption, large and small middle schools are engaged in personal fraud, and the nobles and high-ranking families form flashy parties. This group of silverfish work together upwards to blind the election channels of the Taiwan Cabinet, and downwards control the only way to transfer talents. In the following decades, the relocation gradually made Mr. Nan Guo such a promiscuous person in the court, and the talented people who guarded the way retreated day by day, and galloped away more and more powerful people.
In modern times, people of insight such as Liu Yi, Duan Zhuo, Liu Wei, Wei Qian and other people of insight have deeply felt the huge drawbacks of the method of selecting people from the nine grades. They wrote to the imperial court in the hope of purging or revising the law, but under the joint opposition of the families with vested interests, these opinions were all lost to the sea, and they disappeared without a trace.
However, Huang Yi asserted that although these famous ministers had an attempt to shake the law of the Nine Rank Officials, their actions did not have much substantive significance at all. Because they themselves are all from the world, they do not focus on reality at all when it comes to the selection of officials.
"Oh? Brother Yaoyu thinks, what is the problem? By this time the night was already dark, the servants lit the lamps and candles, and the place where the two men talked changed from the front hall to the back hall. 6 Yao is really not used to people sleeping together at every turn to show intimacy, so he took a small table and put it in the middle of the couch. Although there is only tea and thin wine, it is also a pleasure to meet good talents, and it is also a pleasure to talk at night.
"I'm just a small official, and I don't understand those big truths. Everything you think is what you see, hear, and experience in your daily life. But I heard Huang Yi talk eloquently: "Based on the experience of the Huang clan in Ye County, my clan is originally from Nanpi County, Bohai, Jizhou, and is not a local aborigine. After the former Wei Taizu destroyed the Yuan clan and Keding Hebei, he calculated the edition and began to migrate the population of Nanpi to Yecheng, and our people moved here. In the process of migration, the patriarch of our clan obeyed the imperial court and helped the officials and soldiers to subdue the remnants of the Yuan clan who repeatedly resisted, so he was elected as a household and was able to select the children of the clan to serve as officials in the county. ”
The Huang clan, which is one of the remnants of the Yuan family, started by helping the officials and soldiers to subdue the remnants of the Yuan family. It turned out that this clan was a family that led the way, 6 Yao smiled secretly in his heart, but he also knew that Huang Yi calmly told the old things of the family, which was really sincere; So he raised his hand and made a gesture to continue.
"6 General, there are few people in my Huang clan, and there have been no people since ancient times, some are farmers, some are businessmen, and at most they are rich and rich. At the turn of the Han and Wei dynasties, although the county officials were lowly and small, they were still honored in the face of the small people in the local area, and the registered loose officials were more often used by officials as a means to win over the wealthy families, so the ancestors were very satisfied with this return at that time. Huang Yi sighed and continued: "Who knows that in modern times, it has become the norm for officials to be driven by high-ranking officials at will, so that the status of officials has plummeted. Shangguan has something to ask for, and even the officials are implicated, often running day and night with their families, and are laughed at by the villagers. At that time, the clan deliberately encouraged the younger generations to study in the county school, trying to make their children embark on a career in office...... At that time, I was one of the children who were sent by the clan to enter the county school. ”
6 Yao frowned and said, "Sure enough, it's a good thing." But I heard that in addition to being proficient in the format of the laws and decrees of the national dynasty, Brother Yaoyu's knowledge in scripture and metaphysics is not profound? ”
Huang Yi's age is not youthful, if he has worked hard to learn, he should always have some achievements over the years, at least not to the point of making Cai Mo despised. As a Wu person, when he was 6 young, he had heard the legend of Yixing Yangxian people in the countryside that the people of Yixing Yang Xian were changing their lives and striving for goodness.
Who knew that Huang Yi patted his chest and said, "General 6 is right. Because I didn't go to the county school at all, not even for a day. ”
6 Yao was drinking tea, and when he heard it, he almost squirted out a mouthful of tea soup: "Why is this?" ”
"I have been more careful than ordinary people since I was a child, and before I went to school, I thought that I should discern the preferences of my teachers and see the future path, so that I could get twice the result with half the effort in the future, so I deliberately spent some time to find out the truth about the local government school. I was disappointed by the results of the investigation. It turned out that after decades of Wei and Jin dynasties, the scholar family flourished, and the system of local order was all abandoned. Although the county school has long been gone, there are occasionally one or two survivors of the state and county official schools, the great Confucians who are broadly versed in the classics and history have no intention of preaching and teaching, and the younger generations also use going to school as a way to avoid the conscription of the errand soldiers, and do not participate in the lectures at all. This is the case with the local government schools. Huang Yi shook his head again and again: "I visited the local elders again to inquire about the situation of Luoyang Taixue, and learned that not only the state and county official schools are declining, but the central official schools are not good. It is said that according to the system of the Han Dynasty, there was still Taixue above the state, county, and county officials to achieve their success. In the former Han Dynasty, there were tens of thousands of students, and after the scholars completed their studies, they could enter the official career through inspection and recruitment. Compared with this dynasty's Taixue, it is simply like a world...... There are no more than 3,000 students, less than one-tenth of the size of the previous generation; Among them, the people who are full of fame and reputation are often tried by hundreds of people, and the degree is less than ten, and the court is ashamed of it; After the Taixue and the Guozi School were set up for high-ranking officials, Han Su wanted to enter the door; The academic apprentices taught in Taixue are based on the scriptures first, and do not involve the subtle and mysterious theories and meanings, so even if they are completed, they cannot be compared with the family history of the children of the high-ranking families...... How can this pile, one by one, not make people feel sick? ”
"Officials and scholars should have been the foundation of the dynasty and the scholars, as evidenced by the four hundred years of the Han Dynasty. Why is this dynasty so contemptuous? Could it be that the famous ministers of the DPRK and China are not even concerned about this? I couldn't figure it out, and because I was thinking hard day and night, I got a serious illness and almost died. For some reason, after I recovered from my illness, I suddenly understood a truth...... The prosperity of family learning and the abolition of official education are fundamentally a situation created by countless high-ranking families in the DPRK and China. If the family is prosperous, the children of the high family can enjoy the essence of learning exclusively, even if those people are stupid and stupid like pigs, and have no use for helping the people, they can also sit on the high-ranking officials and the people. If official learning is abolished, the children of poor families will not be able to master knowledge, and the possibility of becoming officials will be cut off. ”
"The law of the Nine Rank Officials itself may not only be for the high-ranking scholars. But the so-called state and county officials and Taixue have become fools in this dynasty, what should I do there? Even if you study hard for decades, after all, you can't get into the eyes of the state and county, do you want to be an old carving insect who can only find chapters and sentences and do not contribute to the current situation? Huang Yi said a lot in one breath, he couldn't help clenching his fists, and said loudly: "Instead of this, it's better to bury your head in my ordinary miscellaneous officials, no matter how hard you work, you can finally do something practical!" ”
Speaking of this, Huang Yi seemed to have some difficulty suppressing the excitement in his heart. He took a few deep breaths, stared out the window somewhat blankly, and suddenly fell silent.
was supposed to talk about the pros and cons of the Nine Grades Official Law, but if you are not careful, you will go far. But 6 Yaoyue felt that the little official's eyes in front of him were very unusual, so he did not disturb him, but just waited quietly.
After a long time, Huang Yi suddenly came back to his senses, and now that he had actually hung General Yingyang for a long time, he couldn't help but feel a little at a loss. On the contrary, 6 Yao repeatedly said that it was okay, and praised Huang Yi's insight. 6 Haruka really didn't care about this little faux pas, in fact, his mood could almost be expressed in joy.
6 Yao swept away all the strong Hu, all located in the three counties of the Daidi, relying on the strong military force with the soldiers of the state as the backbone and the Hu people as the texture. However, this kind of power can be used against the enemy, but it can never be used to govern the government and secure the people. At present, it is only an expedient measure to assign officers from various departments to manage the people in the form of military cantonments and civilian cantonments.
With the status of the 6 Yao Yingyang generals, the Dai County Taishou, and the Governor of Shanggu Guangning Dai County, it is not difficult to recruit scholars as staff members. However, 6 Yao has always relied on only Shao Xu and Shao Sizu, even if Shao Xu was so busy that he couldn't give birth to seven hands and eight feet, he did not introduce other scholars to help. The reason for this is, firstly, because they know that their foothold is not stable, and they are afraid that the high-ranking families of the Shi clan will collude with each other and encroach on the real power of the land, and secondly, it is also because the children of the clan who have always been in contact with them can only be sent to us, resigned, and sung, and few have actual talents.
Today's conversation suddenly provided a new channel for 6 Yao, making 6 Yao think that a capable official like Huang Yi from a poor family was the talent that Dai Jun urgently needed.
He has no literary talent, and he is not good at exaggeration; Familiar with the legal form, it is suitable for the shogunate; The status is very low, so it is easy to satisfy the reward; The family behind it is very small, and it is difficult to collude up and down...... Thinking about it this way, the problem that has plagued Daijun for a long time is solved. When he galloped to the north of Xinjiang, he actually got a good horse from heaven to drive, which is really good! Okay very!
6 Yao barely maintained a solemn posture, and poured a cup of tea for Huang Yi with a smile: "Brother Yaoyu said so much, he must have a dry mouth. Please, please use tea. ”
