Zhuang Mingyue pursed her lips and thought for a while and said, "Then what if it is changed to a private school?"

Long Zhengning was stunned: "There is indeed not so much manpower and material resources invested in the private school, but most of the scholars in the world are arrogant, if they are allowed to educate a group of children, is anyone really willing to do this?"

Zhuang Mingyue couldn't help but sigh: "So, starting with a child is indeed a not very wise decision at this stage, if there is any way to change the status quo of the current scholars."

Zhuang Mingyue was dejected, but before the words fell, her whole person suddenly froze, as if she had thought of something, and suddenly raised her head to look at the two people sitting opposite her, Long Zhengning obviously reacted.

Zhuang Mingyue clapped her hands and said, "Yes, why didn't I think of it?" If we can change the status quo of current readers, it will change many people's views on the matter of reading, and it will be much easier to start with children when the time comes? ”

Long Zhengning laughed: "It's both of us who are thinking about education starting with children, but we haven't thought about what kind of impact it will have on the bottom if changes start from the top."

Long Yuanxiu became interested and asked, "If you start with a scholar." Something really needs to change...... What are you going to do? ”

Zhuang Mingyue thought for a while and said, "What if we can provide scholars with a chance to become an official in the court?"

"What do you mean?"

Long Yuanxiu didn't understand what Zhuang Mingyue meant, but Long Zhengning, who was also in the same place, immediately reacted: "You mean the imperial examination?"

Zhuang Mingyue nodded: "Although most of the officials are still selected through the way of recommendation, but in this way, very few truly talented people can be appointed, and most of them are depressed in the end.

Long Yuanxiu didn't understand what the imperial examination system meant, but through the things described by Zhuang Mingyue, he could vaguely guess what it was.

"Exams are held every year, all over the country." Zhuang Mingyue planned in detail and said, "From the ranks of different places to select people layer by layer, until the end, the selected talents from all over the country will be gathered in the capital, let them participate in the final examination, the person who invigilates the examination can be the prince and minister or directly His Majesty, so that it can not only prevent someone from cheating, but also can select the really talented people to become officials in the court, showing their own ambitions." ”

Zhuang Mingyue considered that Long Yuanxiu might not understand the meaning of the imperial examination system, so he patiently explained it, and when he just finished listening to the entire imperial examination system, Long Yuanxiu's eyes were full of shock and incredulity when he looked at Zhuang Mingyue.

"That's a good idea." After thinking carefully about the imperial examination system, Long Yuanxiu nodded pertinently, "If this method is passed, truly talented people will be able to enter the imperial court, instead of being ranked among the princes and ministers by a group of wine bags and rice bags as they are now." ”

Zhuang Mingyue then added: "If the imperial examination system is implemented, what will change is the status quo of all scholars, at least give them the direction to work hard, and also give everyone an equal opportunity to pass the examination."

If you have the ability, if you can't pass the exam, you can only go back and study hard. ”

"If we change the status quo of readers, then we can change most people's views on learning now, and it may become much easier to start learning from young children."

"It's not going to be much easier." Long Zhengning interrupted Zhuang Mingyue and said, "If the imperial examination system is really implemented, there is almost no need for us to guide or do something?" The private school itself will appear. ”

Zhuang Mingyue didn't react for a while, Long Zhengning explained: "Entering the court as an official, in the eyes of ordinary people, it means soaring, if there is really such an opportunity to appear in front of everyone, who is not willing to let their children make two words, take the exam, and finally be able to become a phoenix and fly on the branches."

"Every new reform must be accompanied by the rise of a new industry."

The more Zhuang Mingyue thought about it, the more she felt that the imperial examination system should be promoted, but when it came to how to implement it, she became a little sad.

"If you want to realize this plan, you must first get the consent of your father." Although Long Yuanxiu also approved of this method, he poured cold water on people when he had to try again, so that the excited Zhuang Mingyue sobered up. "What's more, if this system is really implemented, I'm afraid it won't be smooth sailing."

Long Zhengning understood the meaning of Long Yuanxiu's words: "After all, such a thing as the imperial examination system selects talents from the people, and now most of the people in the imperial court are forming gangs, not to mention that these princes and ministers are hereditary positions, injecting such fresh blood into this pool of stagnant water will definitely attract strong resistance from other people who have been entrenched for a long time."

Zhuang Mingyue also reacted.

If such a change is really to be realized, it will inevitably touch the interests of some people, and the vast majority of these people have great power in the court, and even intertwined forces.

"But I think that if this method is told to my father, maybe the chances of success will be great."

Long Zhengning suddenly said this, attracting Zhuang Mingyue's attention.

"Why are you so sure?"

Long Zhengning continued to explain: "Don't forget, the Son of Heaven is suspicious, not to mention that he doesn't like to form gangs between ministers and princes, if this method is explained to him, it will be a big purge of the existing forces in the DPRK and China, after the purge, what is left is the young talents selected from all over the country, these people have no background, no family, and no intricate forces, such people are often more sacred."

Zhuang Mingyue opened her mouth in surprise, she didn't think about what Long Zhengning said, and it wasn't until she was named that Zhuang Mingyue reacted.

"Then what we should think about now is who and how to mention it to my father." Long Yuanxiu said, "It is unlikely that my father will reject this imperial examination system, the key lies in the method, if you explain it in a clever way, it will be more acceptable to your father, otherwise it is likely to be self-defeating." ”

"After all, this method is a great impact on the existing power of the imperial court, and if it is not handled properly, it is very likely that the father will mistake it for himself to establish power in the court, in case it attracts suspicion

, that's not a good thing for anyone. ”

Long Yuanxiu's words were like a basin of cold water, pouring towards Zhuang Mingyue's heart, Zhuang Mingyue, who was originally slightly excited because of the turn that finally appeared, finally calmed down at this moment.

"When the imperial examination system is implemented, it is not just that people with literary talents can be selected." was poured cold water three times and twice, although Zhuang Mingyue knew in her heart that what Long Yuanxiu said was the truth, but she was still a little disappointed in her heart, "You can also carry out martial arts at the same time as the imperial examination, don't forget, there are civil and military ministers in the court, and you don't necessarily have to choose Wenchen and ignore the generals." ”

"The generals may not be very good." As soon as these words came out, Long Zhengning and Long Yuanxiu both frowned.

Long Yuanxiu said: "Fighting such a thing is always through joining the army, in the army, in the cruel war, slowly sharpen their own experience, if the person selected through the martial arts becomes a general, then it is bound to make the other brothers in the barracks dissatisfied, after all, which general is not from a small soldier crawling up?"

"I also think so, it is better to only elect civil officials in the imperial examination system." Long Zhengning said, "It's nothing to have a skill, it's just a matter of talking on paper, and it's a huge hidden danger to lead troops to fight when the time comes." ”

Zhuang Mingyue also reacted, the martial arts she said had many loopholes, and it was really not suitable, so she could only give up in the end.

The three of them sat together and discussed how to get the current saint to accept the imperial examination system.

It is a difficult question who should have come forward to bring up this matter.

Until lunchtime, the three of them had not been able to figure out a clue.

And more often than not, it was Long Yuanxiu who refuted Long Zhengning's proposal.

Although there is a suspicion of stirring up the situation, but Long Zhengning's proposal, every time it is refuted by Long Yuanxiu, Long Yuanxiu can always say a lot of reasons that people can't find faults.

"Actually, I think if you want Your Majesty to accept the imperial examination system, you don't necessarily need someone to report it, what if he found it himself?"

Zhuang Mingyue drank tea, a little bit of food to support her stomach, and when she was holding the teacup, she recalled what had happened in the past two days, and between the lightning and flint, an idea appeared in her heart.

Seeing Zhuang Mingyue holding the teacup and being stunned, Long Yuanxiu stretched out his hand and dangled in front of her with some amusement.

Zhuang Mingyue came back to her senses suddenly, looked at the person sitting next to her who seemed to be smiling, and then opened her mouth and said, "I probably have a way."

"What's the solution?"

Long Yuanxiu didn't seem to react to what Zhuang Mingyue was referring to, and when he heard Zhuang Mingyue say this, he subconsciously asked rhetorically.

Long Zhengning sneered on the side: "The topic that was discussed in the morning has only had a meal this time." Why doesn't anyone remember? This memory is not as good as my domestic fish! ”

Long Zhengning's last sentence, Long Yuanxiu didn't understand much, but he was able to react, which was mocking himself: "Someone can't even say something decent, and I don't know what kind of face he has to continue to sit here."
