Eight Hills in the Eastern Jin Dynasty

Vol 4 Chapter 2857: 10 years of training talents

   Liu Muzhi said indifferently: "Jin slave, you said, when we joined the army back then, we can expect that there will be today's result. From the official to the general Zaifu, do you have power in the world?"

Liu Yu shook his head: "Seriously, I didn't think so far. I just want to have the opportunity to serve the country and realize my life ambitions. As for what I can get, I really don't think much about it. Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night and look back at my current situation. Status, it all feels like a dream."

Liu Muzhi sighed: "The same is true for me. Although I wanted to get ahead in the past, I also knew that my family background was too far apart from the high-class family. I can be a prefect of a prefecture for the rest of my life. What we thought back then, today’s scholars will think so too. Many low-level scholars are not talented, and there is no way to go directly to the general’s shogunate to take the test. Look at the Baiguanfang in Beijing, People who line up outside for interviews every day can leave three streets. This is the current situation. There may be thousands of people who have no chance of getting ahead, let alone being an official."

   Liu Yu smiled and said, "But there are a lot of people who come to you. According to you, can't you leave ten streets?"

Liu Muzhi hooked his mouth: "To be honest, it's not like two years ago. Anyone can come to see me. My staff and subordinates, like Wang Hong, Xie Hui, and Fu Liang, will Responsible for the first step and the second step of the primary election, but they are after all the children of the family. Now working under my hands, there will be a lot of requests from the family to ask them to recommend them. Therefore, most of the interviewees here are also The son of the aristocratic family."

   Liu Yu frowned: "I can't imagine that even Wang Hong, Xie Hui, and Fu Liang are also playing favoritism. They can't recommend talents fairly."

Liu Muzhi sighed: "Don't blame them for this. Their origins, relatives and friends are all in the family. If you don't even recommend these people, then I am afraid that they will not be mixed in the family in the future, just like you If a fellow from Jingkou comes to recommend you to join the army, can you totally refuse it? We are currently in a cooperative relationship with a family of experts, and we cannot completely break up. If there are real talents in the family, we can still use it."

   Liu Yu shook his head: "But this way, the lower-level scholars will have fewer opportunities. So you thought of this Lan Xiang school's method to give the lower-level scholars this opportunity?"

Liu Muzhi nodded: "To be honest, let the children of the aristocratic family endure this hardship and start from the village officials. I am afraid that few are willing. Even if they are demoted or removed from office, most people are not willing to engage in this kind of lowest level. Affairs, you know, even if they went to other counties to serve as officials, many people did not go to their posts. That is, Yu Yue, who you always thought had changed, even the chief of Wuling Neishi was unwilling to go. His nephew, it should be okay to ask him to be a county magistrate. When he is a village official, then they will feel that it is a shame to themselves."

Liu Yu laughed: "But in the future, if you want to be promoted, if you want to gain power through the performance evaluation, and move up step by step, you must start from the grassroots. In this way, maybe five or ten years later, Officials below the county level will all become such Lan Xiang officials, which is tantamount to truly evacuating the power of aristocratic families at the grassroots level and entering a new era completely."

Liu Muzhi smiled triumphantly and said: "Yes, it was because their nephews were afraid of hardship and death, so they refused to join the army, and gradually lost control of the army. Only then can they have the upper ranks of the eight parties in Beijing. With your power today. But they still have an advantage in knowledge, and no one can replace them in terms of state-ruling talents. In the past, we thought of using Confucianism on behalf of Xuan, and relying on Confucian scholars to replace some aristocratic children. In addition, the Beijing eight brothers, who are the generals and ministers, slowly strike a balance with their official positions. But now it seems that this road is not easy to follow. You can go directly through the roads of Taixue, Guozijian, and Houxu. The opportunity for the children to win an official position will attract a strong backlash. At this time, you can't completely turn your face with them. Otherwise, it would be dangerous if you push the noble family to the Heavenly Alliance."

The smile on Liu Yu's face dissipated, and he nodded gravely: "Yes, what I am most worried about right now is the Heavenly Dao League. Heipao has always said that he has a companion in the south. Although the truth of this person's words is hard to argue, I Still feel that he is likely to have such an accomplice, because Heipao is a northerner, his power is obviously in the northern Huhu, in the south, there must be companions, and the chaos of Sun Lu can be such a big one. Even the Mafia was swept away, and eventually disappeared, and there must be a peerless hero of the black robe level behind to plan. What I am most worried about is that this hero will be like the Mafia back then, controlling the great family of the Jin Dynasty. Enemy with us."

Liu Muzhi nodded: "Yes, this is the place that needs to be avoided the most. We now have great power in our hands, but we have made certain compromises and concessions to the noble family, regardless of the land they occupy or the controlling Wu. Neither land nor Jiangbei competed for official positions. If they competed with their nephews for places at the level of Guozixue, then they would either openly fall to Liu Yi~www.wuxiaspot.com~ or secretly collude with the Tiandao Alliance, and then The result of the author may be even more terrifying, because Liu Yi is both civil and military, but he has great ambitions. He could kill you under Liu Laozhi's order back then, and he may also fall to the Heavenly Alliance in the future..."

Liu Yu waved his hand: "Don't say this for the time being. I know what Xile is like, but he is ambitious, and it is not easy to live under people. It is not easy for him to completely fall to the Heavenly Alliance. Liu Tingyun is also not easy. Maybe let him join the Tiandao League, but for the present, we still want to use this Lanxiang official school to attract more scholars, so that Ken can work for the country, and Ken starts from the grassroots. There is a platform for rising. And space. Within ten years, there will be a large number of talents spreading throughout Dajin’s villages to counties. That is the time when the real power is reversed. It is also the time when we can truly be independent of the disciples of the family and govern the country independently. day!"

Liu Muzhi said sternly: "In the future, we may continue to conquer cities and land, not just this Qingzhou, like Lingnan, Bashu, including the central plains, Guanzhong, Hebei, and Hedong behind. The army won the battle and recovered the lost ground. It still requires a large number of shrewd officials loyal to the country to govern. Just like in Bashu, the Mao family guarded for more than ten years, but because of the lack of talents, the governing Yizhou still needs the children of the local big clan. If these people have bad intentions, take advantage of it. When the country is in turmoil, uniting and cooperating in chaos will bring disaster to a loyal Mao family and cause the country to lose a big state. Such lessons must be prevented!
