Da Qin: I asked you to touch the jade seal, but you touched a woman?

Chapter 395 The imperial examination begins, the first time the world has been broken

Time flies, and it is already two months later, the busy farming period.

In the past two months, Yingzheng, who "woke up" and regained control of Daqin, can be said to be very busy.

On the one hand, it has to deal with all kinds of memorials sent from all over Daqin every day.

On the other hand, he had to deal with those clan nobles who came to him to complain about their grievances.

Although Ying Zheng became more and more impatient with these people, he still didn't make up his mind to deal with these clansmen directly, and could only perfunctory these clansmen time and time again.

In this way, Ying Zheng's attitude made these clan members feel that Ying Zheng was willing to stand by their side.

In the following days, these clan members came more frequently.

In the end, Ying Zheng couldn't bear to deal with these clansmen every day, so he took Ling Chi out to scare them.

When the clan members heard about Ling Chi, their legs went limp in fright, and they didn't dare to disturb Ying Zheng anymore.

In the midst of his busy schedule, Ying Zheng also had some doubts.

During these two months, Ying Xi rarely came to see him, and even if he did, he left in a hurry.

He wanted to ask Ying Xi what he was doing, but Ying Xi's answer was ambiguous, which made him a little confused.

In the past two months, Ying Xi has been preparing for the imperial examination.

The reason why he allowed Ying Zheng to wake up at such a time was that he didn't want to get entangled with Fu Su, ministers and clansmen.

Another reason is that he is about to start preparing for the imperial examination.

This matter is currently the top priority in his mind, and he needs to concentrate on doing it, so Ying Zheng woke up at that time.

"His Royal Highness, according to the data collected and reported by various counties and counties, the number of people participating in this imperial examination in various parts of Daqin has fully met your requirements!"

Cao Changqing reported to Ying Xi.

"it is good!"

Ying Xi frowned, and a look of joy appeared on his face.

In this first imperial examination, he gave each county a mandatory requirement for the number of people.

This is not because he deliberately made things difficult for officials everywhere, but to avoid some troubles!
The imperial examination system not only uprooted the recommendation system, but also damaged the interests of those nobles and current officials.

If you don't force a certain number of people to take the imperial examination, then the consequence must be that all those who take the imperial examination this time are the children of nobles.

Those nobles will definitely use various means to thwart those common people who want to take the imperial examination.

In this regard, Ying Xi has no doubt that those nobles can do it.

Even in order to make those nobles feel scruples and not to make small moves secretly, Ying Xi directly issued a punishment for not meeting the standard.

Execute the nine clans of local officials!
And the relations between the officials in various places and those nobles are inextricably linked. Once the nine clans are about to be punished, those nobles will naturally be implicated.

And with previous precedents, those nobles had no doubt that Ying Xi would do what he said.

In this way, the number of references in each place met Yingxi's requirements.

But it's only just reached the standard, not even a single one is redundant.

This is enough to show that the means of those nobles!

However, Ying Xi is not in a hurry to settle accounts with these nobles and officials. It only needs that after the first imperial examination is successfully held, the second time, I am afraid that those nobles will not be able to stop it if they want to stop it!

Just as Ying Xi was thinking, Cao Changqing really said what he had observed.

"His Royal Highness, after the news of the opening of the imperial examination was conveyed, the people all over Daqin cheered for it, and the proportion of scholars among the people increased sharply."

"However, I also saw that the nobles in some places secretly bought up those book resources, leaving the common people with no books to read."

"Humph."

Ying Xi sneered: "Since they like to buy it, let them buy it!"

Ying Xi didn't care much about the nobles' small actions.He is already working on speeding up the printing of books.

Since those nobles like to collect so much, let them collect enough!

You know, those nobles are not as good as before. In the past, they just sat at home and could provide for a large family just by collecting tenants.

And now, those lands have been forcibly confiscated.

Without the maximum economic income, those nobles now spend less money for every dollar they spend.

And the whole family has to eat.

It won't be long before they know that books are not food!
"The township test, have you finished the test?"

Ying Xi asked.

"His Royal Highness, the provincial examination has indeed been completed!"

When Cao Changqing talked about this matter, there was a smile from the heart on his face.

He had only heard about the imperial examination system from Ying Xi before, but it was the first time he had actually seen it.

Although it was only the provincial examination, there would be general examinations and imperial examinations to follow, but Cao Changqing had already seen that many young people with great potential stood out.

Ying Xi nodded in satisfaction.

Although this rural examination has the same name as the historical one, its scale is different.

Today's Daqin has a small population, and the population of a township is very thin, and even fewer people take part in the imperial examination.

Therefore, according to the current situation in Daqin, Ying Xi deliberately shortened the original six exams to three.

And this country test is the first one.

At this time, most of the scholars who walked out of the rural examination room were smiling.

After nearly three months of studying hard, it was finally time for the test.

In the past, even if they read the book, they didn't know what it was useful for.

But now, they know.

It can be used as an official!

This made these readers very excited.

Most of them are usually people who like to discuss and comment on national affairs. Now that they have the opportunity to participate, how could they miss it?

All of a sudden, these scholars were full of gratitude to Yingxi who opened up this channel.

Some scholars even proposed to erect a monument and build a temple for Ying Xi, and be worshiped by scholars all over the world.

When the nobles heard the news, they naturally stood up to stop it.

What a joke!
They can't stop these annoying scholars from taking the imperial examination, but they can still stop them from erecting monuments and building temples for Yingxi.

And for good reason.

Ying Xi is only the crown prince now, how could he build a monument and build a temple beyond His Majesty?

The scholars were frightened, so the matter was dropped.

After stopping these common people and scholars, the nobles were a little complacent again.

So what if you read the book?
Haven't you been bluffed by them?

But it didn't take long for them to be happy, and they couldn't laugh anymore.

Because of the results of the rural examination, it came out.

When they saw that less than half of their descendants and nephews were on the list released, these nobles finally realized that something big had happened!
This group of ignorant people actually occupied more than half of the places on the list!
