Chu Tian showed off the Golden Palace and came to the side hall.

Emperor Xiang Yanran was eating dinner alone, and the table was filled with delicacies and seafood.

In today's court, the ministers are still in a confrontation. If this major event is not resolved, he will have no appetite!

Cai and the eunuch were serving each other.

Chu Tianxiu licked her face and walked over, "Emperor..."

"oh?"

The emperor glanced at him, put down the bowls and chopsticks, and asked lightly: "Little Hunhou, why are you here to find me?"

“It’s not a new thing!

I can’t figure out what these officials are thinking. The nobles of the family want to let their children go to power. The Confucians want to let Confucian scholars go to power. They fight for a Zhongzheng official!

Did they think about the emperor?

Can't they see who the emperor needs?"

Chu Tianxiu was heartbroken and said, "I really can't stand it anymore, so I came to find the emperor!"

"Oh... tell me, who do I need?"

The emperor narrowed his eyes.

"It's simple. The emperor needs to be a talented person. No matter what his origin is, as long as he can do a good job, he is the talent the emperor needs.

Just like my little husband, I am a fool and playboy, but I can do some serious things and help the emperor. As long as I can make contributions, I can be an official.

The most important thing is to be able to do things for the emperor.

As for the origin, whether it is a scholar, a Confucian scholar, or a playboy... this is not the point!"

Chu Tianxiu scolded in pain.

Xiang Yanran looked at Chu Tianxiu and fell into silence.

Alas ~!

There are not many civil and military officials in the court, kings, princes, princes, and ministers... who are as sensible as Xiaohunhou.

As the Emperor of Great Chu, he really didn't care much about the origin of his subjects.

It is certainly possible for a high-ranking scholar, but of course it is also possible for a poor family to come from.

What he valued was the benefits of the entire Great Chu, and needed a group of capable ministers and officials to manage the great Chu country well and solve the internal and external troubles.

The world is peaceful and the country is forever.

The emperor was satisfied.

But... the ministers don't think so. Most of them are fighting for the benefits of one faction and one clan. For a Zhongzheng official who has the power, he is willing to fight for the sake of a bloody official. After the battle this year, maybe he will continue to fight next year.

Although Xiao Hunhou was a playboy, he never fought for any major official position. Instead, he did a lot of things that would benefit the entire Great Chu.

Like making a marquis paper, setting up a mansion, helping Li Yuan to refine gunpowder, no one is not a great achievement that will benefit the country and the people.

He didn't see Xiaohunhou licking his face and asked him for a high-ranking official and generous salary!

Look at those court officials, and a few of them have shown decent political achievements?!

Although Xiao Hunhou's playboy's moral character is not noble, he is able to work, working as hard as a ox, and doing the hardest and most tiring work on the fertile soil of Da Chu.

Eat the cheapest grass.

But I squeezed out three of the most fragrant and nutritious fresh milk.

This is also what makes him the most satisfied with Xiao Hunhou.

"It's still Xiaohunhou who understands my heart!"

Xiang Yanran sighed slightly, "I feel very comforted. If everyone is like this, what else can I worry about!"

Cai and the eunuch looked carefully at the emperor's face full of relief.

Let’s look at Xiao Hunhou’s “flattery” with his face full of “bewitching”, and there is a hidden attack on other court officials in his words.

Is Xiaohunhou a loyal minister?

Loyal minister?

Bah ~!

No matter how much gold is placed on his face, it cannot cover up his behavior of flattering the Empress Dowager, the Emperor, and slandering other court officials behind his back.

He is a number one treacherous minister who is as loyal as a traitor.

But the emperor likes to listen to this trick.

Cai and the eunuch were whispering in their hearts and were silent.

"Your Majesty, I have an idea to completely dispel the courtiers' desire to fight for power and profit."

Chu Tianxiu said quickly.

"Oh, let's hear!"

"I have been thinking about it for a long time. However, because of the misunderstanding of the world, no one recommends an official under normal circumstances. I am able to serve the emperor by recommending myself.

Countless talented people in the world are unable to become officials because they have no recommendations.

So, why not let those who are talented in the world "recommend themselves" like emoticons?

Anyone in the world who thinks that they are capable, regardless of their background, does not need any recommendation from princes, princes, ministers, and senior officials, can boot them to the court.

In this way, tens of thousands of talented men will surely emerge in the world, rushing to serve the court.

The court only needs to design the strictest examination system, eliminate more than 99% of the people who fail, and select the best and most capable and competent people to use for the emperor.

There is no recommendation from kings, princes and ministers, and no recommendation from Zhongzheng officials. Everything is based on the imperial examination assessment.

This is a strategy to remove the firewood from the bottom of the pot, completely abolish those selfish court officials, and rely on their power to recommend personal gains and frauds.

From "other lifting" to "booting by yourself".

The emperor can use the examination system to select the best talents from the world at will.

I call this new system the 'imperial examination system'!

Chu Tianxiu said this.

Suddenly, Emperor Xiang Yanran was stunned.

Hey~!

yes!

Bootstrap, assessment?

Why didn't he expect that there would be such a way?

Whether it was the "annual system" or the "zhongzheng system" in the previous circles were all circled around "recommendations from others", and it was difficult to get rid of the suspicion of favoritism.

If all of them are changed to "booting by yourself", everyone can recommend themselves. Of course, there is nothing to do with favoritism and fraud in court officials.

Bypassing the Confucian faction and the nobles of aristocratic families, anyone can serve the court.

Another assessment system is designed to eliminate all the stones and select gold.

wonderful!

It's amazing!

Xiang Yanran's heart was filled with countless thoughts.

Cai and the eunuch opened their mouths in surprise.

Xiao Hunhou’s mind is so easy to use.

The emperor and the court officials went through hardships but failed to come up with a solution, and the deadlock was broken by Xiaohunhou!

"Good idea!... But I am still a little worried. The Confucians and nobles of the clans did not agree with this method and tried their best to oppose it. Even if this method is good, it would not be passed in the court."

Emperor Xiang Yanran said happily and worriedly.

This self-boot obviously deprived the Confucians and nobles of the family to recommend the right to recommend. I am afraid that there will be a quarrel in the court again.

If the ministers join forces to oppose this plan, they will not be able to pass it.

"I am willing to volunteer and try my best to convince them!"

Chu Tianxiu immediately patted his chest and immediately smiled flatteringly: "If I convince them, I will ask the emperor to give me a gift and let me serve as the first chief examiner of the imperial examination!"

"Bang!"

As soon as Chu Tian finished speaking, his head hurt and tears came out of pain.

But I saw that the emperor slapped him in the head.

Xiang Yanran looked gloomy and said, "Selecting an official, this is my power. What are you thinking?"

Could it be that he, the emperor, wouldn't kill anyone after making contributions?
To be continued...
