Changfeng Thousands of Miles End Han Song

Chapter 849 The Ascent Channel of the New Dynasty
In Hanzhong City, in a small courtyard, there are several Confucian-looking figures sitting at this moment.Looking at their clothes, they are really a bit shabby, and some of them even have injuries on their bodies.

However, the person who was surrounded by ordinary people in the center like a star-studded moon had a ruddy complexion and bright clothes.

Although this person is half a hundred years old, he is a martyr in his twilight years, full of ambition, and made great contributions to Yuwen Xuanzhong in the Xingyuan Mansion battle that just ended in time.

This courtyard belongs to Yuwen Xuanzhong's own public house, a small courtyard with two entrances, and he is now an official of Lu Qichao.

In the battle of Xingyuan Mansion, it was not because he was in time, anyway, when Xu Ning led the army to attack the city, he suddenly led people to attack and kill the government office, forcing the injured Xingyuan prefect Li Kui to burn himself to death, causing the defenders to be so confused that Before Yao Youzhong led his troops back to Hanzhong City, the city had already been taken by Xu Ning in one fell swoop.The Song army who had withdrawn from Xianrenguan followed the army's morale in chaos, and the soldiers had no fighting spirit, and were defeated by Xu Ning.I don't know how long the battle of Xingyuan Mansion will be delayed.

Yu Wenxuanzhong made a great contribution!

Such rewards for meritorious service after the war are also in accordance with his own wishes. Yu Wenxuanzhong became the training officer of the prisoner-of-war camp. If there is no accident in the future, he will be a member of the Hanzhong education system.

And the current house is naturally the public house of officials of a certain rank.

The people sitting in the yard at this moment, these poorly dressed scholars, were the people who had made friends with Yuwen Xuanzhong in the group training that gathered in Hanzhong City that day.

These people had similar backgrounds, and they all had many complaints against Zhao and Song in private.

Yuwen Xuanzhong gave them a big hand, but it wasn't all because of the previous friendship, but purely to consolidate the foundation of his family.Weave a strong enough network of relationships.

What relationship could be more important than the grace of saving one's life?
He did not live in vain for 50 years in Yuwen Xuanzhong.Naturally, there are such small tricks.

Yu Wenxuanzhong's eyes were red. He cried just now. Naturally, his family was not destroyed, but he was just grieving for his "friend" who lost his life.According to the news that was sent just now, a regiment commander who was seriously injured died of his injuries.

I don't know whether the injuries suffered in the rebellious army were beaten by the Qi army or the deserters of the Song army.Anyway, people are gone.Yu Wenxuan lost a 'best friend'.

And even though that person is not from Guangdu, he is also from Jinguan City, they live in the same prefecture, so the relationship is quite close.Originally, a rich and noble gentry died in a foreign land. As a fellow countryman, it was reasonable for Yuwen Xuanzhong to cry bitterly.

But the visiting scholars in the room looked at him with a hint of envy.

Yuwen Xuanzhong is decisive.Daxia was overwhelmed, they were all supposed to be buried with the mansion, but instead of being buried, Yu Wenxuanzhong caught a ladder to climb to heaven!

Of course, they are also lucky. They are not lucky to befriend Yuwenxuan among the many regiment presidents. How can they wash away their 'crimes' in a short period of time and be free now?It's just that the middle of Shu has not been pacified, and they can't go home now.

"Brother Yuwen is really brave. Under the watchful eyes of the tens of thousands of defenders, he gathered soldiers in the government office and killed him with one blow. It is really beyond the reach of ordinary people."

This is what I said sincerely.Not everyone can have the hard work and determination of Yuwen Xuanzhong.

"Brother Yuwen is so heroic, it can be said that he has paved the way for the people of Sichuan and Shu in the new dynasty. I have heard that my brother Yuwen Huangzhong is very knowledgeable and talented. Today, my brother has made great contributions to the new dynasty. Favored by the new dynasty, can’t you make great plans tomorrow? The ambition in the heart of the First World War.” In the eyes of these people, the Yuwen family has already reported the big legs of Lu Qichao, and the new dynasty will definitely recruit them after the land is settled. Some local sages came to win people's hearts, and Brother Yuwen will be of great use in the future.

"Brother Yu is really envious, and I also feel that my generation is far behind!" The oldest person in the room said slowly.

There was a lot of talk, and soon, the topic was transferred from Yu Wenxuanzhong to Lu Qichao.

One emperor and one courtier, let alone a change of dynasty?

Not to mention that there are so many differences between Lu Qichao and Zhao Song.

In the Zhao family, everyone knows that 'reading books' is the best ladder to ascend to heaven.

The emperor's disciples, go straight to the blue sky.In the morning, he is Tian Shelang, and in the evening, he goes to the Tianzitang. Reading is the best way to ascend in the Zhao family.But what is Lu Qi's upward path?

It seems to be studying in the imperial examination, but it seems to be fighting on the battlefield...

"My family has a little money, but it is different from the generals. It is not my wish to let the younger generation go to the army to fight." Yu Wenxuan's words won everyone's nod, of course they are not willing The children of later generations are fighting for wealth and honor in the forest of swords and spears.Compared with enlisting in the army, they hoped that their children would be able to pass the civil service path, but what their younger children learned was far from what Lu Qichao wanted.

Looking at the way Lu Qi selected his talents, it turned out that their stewards had an advantage over their sons and grandsons.What do you call this?

Yu Wenxuanzhong had a smile on his face. He will be in the education system in the future, and he has a clearer understanding of Lu Qi's government's selection of talents.The current school system is completely different from the previous academy and government school system, and the teaching materials there are even more completely different.

"Everything in the Zhao family is low-grade, but only reading is good. But the books he read were only the Four Books and Five Classics, and what he read was a Confucian character. Perhaps it can be said that Zhao Song took the word 'special'. But Lu Qi took a The word '博' is not about chess, calligraphy and painting, but about astronomy and geography, but about arithmetic and nature."

Yu Wenxuan explained to them in detail the colleges above the school, and the "technical" officials in Lu Qi's officialdom.

This is Lu Qichao's ascending channel.

"Zhao Song took Confucianism as the mainstay, and military strategists, legalists, engineering, and calculations were all incorporated into this path. This is like the hemp rope, which is twisted together, and is bound by the word "Confucianism" from beginning to end. But Lu Qichao is like that big tree. There are countless branches and leaves on the big tree, and there are countless thin roots and stalks under it. Xinchao melts the essence of various schools and schools into one furnace, and takes a word of Bo. Like the trunk of that big tree , from bottom to top, step by step, until reaching the top of the high-level academy. That is the transformation from Bo to Jing, like countless branches of a big tree."

Yu Wenxuanzhong tried his best to express his understanding of Lu Qi in simple and vivid words. "Naturally, there are many talented people in the world who have extensive knowledge and knowledge. Naturally, they can turn from masters to masters. But they are not something I, Yu Wen Xuanzhong, can express."

"Everyone, the official of Lu Qi, after all, pays attention to practicality. Whether it is accounting, law, engineering, military, etc., or other aspects, what he talks about is applying what he has learned. Lu Qi's meritorious service must not be wrong. It's only preached on the lips."

This "learning to use" is the real meritorious learning that seeps out from the root.

"I see, that's how it is. In the past, I only listened to Zhao Song preaching about Lu Qi's meritorious deeds and Lu Qi's utilitarianism. I only thought it was Zhu Yang's selfish learning. I never thought that the so-called meritorious learning is like this..." Then The emotion of the oldest person made Yuwen Xuanzhong sigh for a while.

In the past in Sichuan, wasn't that how Zhao Song promoted Lu Qi?Just like Zhu Yang's theory was taken out of context by Mencius and Xunzi, and a big label of 'selfishness' was directly put on Yang Zhu's head.It seems that what Lu Qi once admired was "pluck a hair and benefit the world, do nothing for it" type of people who do not do it for themselves will be destroyed by heaven and earth.Duan never knew that the essence of Lu Qi's theory of meritorious deeds is the application of Tao in things.There is a big difference between the boss and the boss.

Of course, if it weren't for Yuwen Huangzhong's 'well-informed', it would be impossible for Yuwen Xuanzhong to 'understand' so quickly.

"Everyone, listen to what Xuanzhong said. In the future, we must let our children and grandchildren go to school. Compared with the Zhao and Song Dynasties, the official government of the new dynasty has a lot more officials and officials. And all the official positions are in the school. For military affairs, civil affairs, legal affairs, fortifications, etc., the school is the way to ascend!"

Yu Wenxuan's words are deeply affectionate and come from the heart.That school is the future upward channel.

If you want to be an official, go to school first.For gentry like them, the so-called promotion is to enter the officialdom.There are many paths in Lu Qichao Academy. The more official positions at each level and the more classifications, doesn't it mean that the upward path becomes broader?
Every country must have an upward channel, a channel from the middle and lower classes of society all the way to the top, an upward channel that allows a person from a poor background to participate in the distribution of rights and interests of a country and the position of the country's major policies!

Because only in this way can we bring vitality to the society and bring great impetus to the society.A country and civilization with a narrow upward path and solidified classes has no motivation for development.

Everyone was silent.

"Ascending channel?" Everyone can understand the meaning in it.

"This is Lu Qichao's term, and it is simply the ladder to the sky." Yu Wenxuan said without concealing it.

"Officials in the new dynasty not only need people with amazing literary talents and well-read poetry books, but also people who are good at calculation, people who are proficient in law, people who are proficient in military books, people who are proficient in civil engineering, and people who are proficient in the law of construction. , just like Li Jie, just like Yu Wenkai..."

Yu Wenxuanzhong looked a little excited, because this reminded him of himself and Yu Wenyangzhong.Among the three brothers, both of them are not as talented in reading as Yuwen Huangzhong, but this is only inferior in poetry and books. If you compare arithmetic, the second brother Yuwen Yangzhong is the first.This means that in the new dynasty, people like Yu Wenyang can enter the officialdom through arithmetic.

People have different talents. Some people have a strong memory. Of course, such people are good at reading the Four Books and Five Classics.But some people are talented in mathematics, some are super interested in the law, or some are talented in civil engineering, etc.Doesn't this mean that the upward channel is wider?
Before, there was only the first road to go, but now there are several more roads.

"The imprisonment of the social power class will only lead to the rapid destruction of the entire society." Yu Wenxuanzhong somehow thought of a sentence in his handbook.It is said that this sentence was said by Emperor Lu.Huang Zhong Da Lu is so touching.

Yuwen Xuanzhong sighed with emotion.

Because this sentence gave him a completely different feeling from the previous dynasties. Once the superiors of those dynasties gained power, who would not be thinking about how to make the family rich and powerful for thousands of years?Only Emperor Lu made the current statement.And that's the difference in perspective.

Standing on the shoulders of the times and looking into the distance, how could Lu Qian be 'short-sighted'?
Maintaining the "new price" of the social power class is a must to eliminate the corruption of the entire society.It's like the difference between stagnant water and living water. Fish in stagnant water are safer at the beginning, but what about in the long run?Can fish still live in rotten and smelly water?
What about the living water?The effect is completely different.

The running water does not rot, the door hinge does not moth, and it does not move.The ancestors have long had insights on this point, but very few are able to take the initiative to do this.

Zhao Song started the prosperous age of imperial examinations, throwing the aristocratic families from the Eastern Han Dynasty to Li Tang into the garbage dump of history, but the decline of the Northern Song Dynasty did not make this mistake again.Who dares to say that the reason for the demise of the Northern Song Dynasty is all the responsibility of great artists, and there is no credit for Cai Jing?
He served as prime minister four times, for a total of 17 years, and can be called Zhao Song No. 1.

There are also many generals who are like branches, which is also one of the reasons for the decay of the Song Army's combat power. Yao Pingzhong, who is less than 20 years old, can be crowned with the name of "Little Taiwei".The Western Army was crushed during the process of the Jurchen going south, otherwise, after they cleaned up the Western Xia, they would become the second in the Tokyo Forbidden Army in a few decades.

Just like the feudal system in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, like the aristocratic families from the Eastern Han Dynasty to Li Tang..., even the red polar bear in history.

During the Brezhnev era, the leadership of the Red Polar Bear was almost unchanged for a long time, and then gradually formed a de facto lifelong system of leading cadres.This allowed the upper class to have the opportunity to protect and support each other, and gradually formed a stable privileged class, forming a closed small circle at the top of the power.

Much like the children of powerful families in Chinese history, the descendants of later generations easily entered the high-level of national power by virtue of their ancestors' status. Such a weak sheep became the leader of a group of lions, and the final result would only make the country Towards destruction.

Because a society with solidified classes lacks fair competition, selection, and exit mechanisms. Elites from disadvantaged groups cannot rank among the middle and high levels of society, lead the development and reform of the country, and receive corresponding treatment. This is what forces these The social elite started anew.

On the other hand, there are a large number of children of powerful groups who hold these dominant social positions. Their only motivation and goal is to protect their own vested interests at the expense of national interests. They lack enterprising and innovative spirit, and they can only destroy the country in the end.The best example of that is Man Qing.

Why did Boss Zhao rapidly expand the number of people in the imperial examination from the beginning?In Li Tang's time, there were only a dozen Jinshi in the first department. When Zhao Laoda was in charge, there were more than a hundred people, and in Zhao Laoda's time, there were more than 300 people.The only purpose is to allow more talents from all walks of life to be accommodated in the Zhao Dynasty's system.At the same time, it is also promoting its own standards to the elites of the whole society, luring more elites to take the initiative to move closer to their rules and enter into his rules.

But Zhao's second son certainly never imagined that among his descendants, someone was so stupid that in the early 20s, the same person was in charge of the prime minister for 17 years.
