A new journey will have a new beginning, a new beginning will bring a new life, for Suning, a new beginning and a new life will not have a huge impact on itself, but for the state of mind, the impact is undoubtedly huge, there is a good state of mind, there is a good starting point, a good starting point for a person's life, it is very important, which will be related to what kind of mentality he will use to face the adversity he encounters.

No matter what kind of environment you are in, you can't let your heart be empty, your heart is full of things, you won't be bored, you won't be empty, you won't feel abandoned by the world when you're sad, you can have something to do when no one is with you, even if it's just an expedient measure, you can make yourself appear purposeful, motivated, not boring, and have a lot of thoughts in your heart that shouldn't be born.

Li Chengqian was assigned a new task by Li Erma, presiding over a year's imperial examination as the crown prince, Suning wants to assist Li Chengqian in presiding over this imperial examination as a deputy examiner, today's imperial examination is not the kind of examination that simply examines the four books, five classics and six arts in the past, but a brand-new imperial examination, the lack of official positions in every department and every place and the newly needed official positions will be announced, and those who want to obtain this position will come to participate in the corresponding examination.

The central and local positions were originally different in terms of treatment, and in Datang, the treatment of Beijing officials would be much better than that of local officials, so many local officials cut their heads and wanted to be Beijing officials, which was also a way of centralizing power in Datang. Focus on the center and light on the locality.

Nowadays, it is still about the same, the treatment of officials in the central government is still better than that of the localities, but the magnitude is not much different, on the contrary, there is a big difference in the treatment of officials between various localities, for example, although the salaries of officials in some rich places are not higher than those of poor local officials, but the living conditions of rich localities, the treatment of officials and the security aspects are all first-class, similar to the Tubo Plateau and the Western Regions, which have just acquired territory. The living conditions and conditions of the officials there are not very high, and the personal safety and security are not guaranteed.

And now the biggest demand for official positions is those newly acquired local official positions, and few people are willing to go to those places to be officials, and the environment is not good. Not well treated. Personal safety is also not guaranteed, so generally speaking, people who pass the imperial examination are reluctant to go to those places to be officials. Those who are taking the imperial examination for the first time once pass guò. You must serve at least three years in a poor area on the border before you can apply for a transfer. Go to more affluent places in the interior and take up higher official positions.

Beginning with the first reformed imperial examinations, all preparatory officials who passed the guò examinations were required to hold positions in the newly acquired territories for at least three years before they had the opportunity to participate in the performance review and the official examination. After the consent of the Ministry of Rites and the Emperor, he could be transferred to the interior to hold a higher position, but this system was also lacking, so there were other corresponding measures in this regard, such as what political achievements he had made and how many years he had held a position in the border area, he could apply for a direct transfer to the capital Chang'an City as an official.

According to the investigation report of the Ministry of Vertical and Horizontal Affairs, the officials who have been tested in the border areas for three years are all officials with a certain degree of ability and motivation, and most of them are very young, less than 30 years old.

In those places where there is basically no major problem of prosperity and stability, the most suitable people to be that kind of magistrates are those elderly officials who are already in their forties and fifties and are about to become a magistrate, and young officials should not stay in that kind of place, but should train themselves and test themselves in border and difficult places, and then obtain stronger ability and a higher promotion ladder, and then they can directly serve as candidates for high-level officials of the central government at that time.

These knowledgeable and actionable young students and officials who have learned the skills of Confucianism, Legalism, Zonghengjia and other schools of thought who have come out of the University of Political Science and Law should be trained in more difficult places and become the pillars of the Tang Dynasty in the future.

The only place where young students can get the imperial examination is the border of the four directions, Tubo, the Western Regions, the grassland, Liaodong, Wadao and other places, you can choose at will, but you have to go to those places, you are not qualified to go to other places, after not going to a hard place to exercise, you don't want to go to a rich place to live a comfortable life as an official, in fact, if you don't work hard, the annual performance assessment can definitely take you down, don't think that no one in Datang is willing to endure hardship.

Li Chengqian felt a little headache after receiving this task, the imperial examination is the most important thing in the Tang Dynasty today, no one dares to slack off, the emperor's eyes and the eyes of the three provinces are staring at the imperial examination, let the crown prince be the examiner is to have the meaning of not letting the imperial examination be eroded by human relationships, the crown prince is not afraid of any of your rights threats and benefits to trade these things, so the crown prince can guarantee the minimum fairness of this qiē.

The examiner is selected according to the ratio of three to four to three from the professors and lecturers of the University of Political Science and Law, famous folk scholars and representatives of officials from three provinces and seven ministries, a total of 100 people of the marking team, from three aspects to judge whether a candidate has enough knowledge, ability and character to serve in the official position he wants to apply for, if one side does not agree, then the candidate will be dismissed, there is no reason, especially in terms of morality, if there is a problem with character is seen, directly pass.

The representative of the vertical and horizontal department further pointed out that the imperial examination is the most important way to select talents in the country, and in order to ensure that the imperial examination can indeed select practical talents who govern the local area, the paper examination cannot be used as the only assessment method. In some cases, some key positions cannot be hastily awarded if there is no actual assessment.

Deputy examiner Su Ning agreed, he also believes that some official positions with high requirements for professional ability, it is difficult to detect anything different on a roll of paper, and after communicating with the chief examiner, Crown Prince Li Chengqian, Crown Prince Li Chengqian gave Suning the power to formulate the actual test, thinking that what cannot be tested in the paper assessment must be tested in the actual assessment, otherwise, if a guy who can only read and nothing is selected to be an official, the place will be a mess.

After being instructed, Suning reported the news to Li Erma. Li Er's majesty quickly agreed to do so. And if the real yàn is very successful, the future imperial examination will have to add this test content to test the ability of hard work, if the hard work is not good. Then it is useless to get a high ranking in the exam.

As soon as the news broke. The whole country was shaken. Candidates who graduated from the University of Political Science and Law and those who are self-referencing by the private sector are worried about this, because they do not know what hard work means and what it means. How do you need to be assessed, what kind of assessment standards are needed, how can you be considered to be able to pass the exam, how can you be considered to be an official official, and you have to go to such a distant place and such a difficult place to be an official, does the imperial examination of the imperial court really have to get such a process?

However, this kind of assessment method is officially recognized by the entire Datang, and those very qualified old people also think that this is right, and they don't think that there is anything wrong with doing so, they all think that this is conducive to the progress of officials, and is conducive to local exhibitions, and a group of young student officials sharpen themselves in those places, which is very conducive to the expansion of practical officials in the court in the future, and is conducive to the long-term development of Datang.

The emperor made a decision like this, and the bigwigs in the court also decided that if you don't want to take the exam, you can, there are many people who want to participate, there are not many others in Datang, there are many people, there are many people, and there are many talents, not to mention that many children of the poor family can read books and learn knowledge, and it will not take many years for the talent reserve of Datang to reach a very terrifying Cheng dù, according to the future plan of the education system set by Suning, it will not take many years for every Datang Dao to have a representative university, It is of the same nature as Chang'an's Datang University of Political Science and Law.

Every county has a primary school, every state has a middle school, although the Tao is not an administrative unit, but this does not prevent Datang from building a university plan with the Tao as a unit, standardizing education, free education as much as possible, providing free lunches, etc., as much as possible to reduce the burden of the people, so that every school-age student can read and study, open up the wisdom of the people, and when that time comes, Datang will no longer have to worry about the lack of talent to use.

The current imperial examination is still a transitional stage of the imperial examination, because the national education system has not yet been completely established, whether it is students or teachers or the number of books and the number of education funds, which limits the ability of the Tang Dynasty to popularize education, the Tang Dynasty has been at war on all sides in the past two years, and now there is a Persian side of the battle in the stalemate stage, although the Tang Dynasty does not have to bear the cost, but it also requires manpower and material resources.

The war has affected the education and local construction of the Tang Dynasty, after the end of the war, the huge benefits obtained from the war will be fully invested in the restoration of the construction and education construction, this imperial examination is a signal, a signal that the governance goal of the Tang Dynasty in the next few years will be transferred from the war to the construction, for this, the people of the entire Datang must be prepared.

The imperial examination is just the beginning.

On the day when Li Ermajesty read the entire "Zizhi Tongjian", that is, the last volume of the "Sui Volume", on the first day of the third month of the fourteenth year of Zhenguan, when the weather was cool, the fourth imperial examination after the reform of the Tang Empire officially began.

"I've finished reading it, I've read the whole book, Suning, I don't know what's going on, I always feel that you still have something you haven't written, right?" Li Erma's eyes staring at Suning were a little unkind, Suning felt a little hairy in his heart, yes, it was true, he did write all the events of the Wude Dynasty and the Zhenguan Dynasty until now, and he even planned to write as long as he lived, as long as it was not known, he could write it any way.

But Li Erma's sense of smell is too sensitive, and it can be seen from the little foreshadowing he left at the end of the "Sui Volume", after the Sui Dynasty, followed by the troubled times and the rise of the Tang Dynasty, which is indispensable for Li Jiancheng and Li Yuan's Excellency, Suning doesn't know if with Li Erma's current mind and merits and narcissistic Cheng Dù can accept the first and a half volumes of "Tang Volume" written by Suning Bing.

Historically, it was Li Er Majesty who opened a bad precedent for the emperor to revise historical facts, and Chu Suiliang could still withstand the pressure of Li Er Majesty when he was a living man, but Chu Suiliang's successor was obviously not a righteous person, and Li Er Majesty was also deeply criticized by historians.

At this time, of course, it is necessary to be sloppy.

"The officials of the present dynasty do not write the history of the present dynasty, unless His Majesty needs it, the minister will write it, if His Majesty does not need it, of course the minister will follow the meaning of His Majesty and not say anything." Suning said. (To be continued!)
