Crowned the New Han Dynasty

Chapter 1168: Looking at the pits of the world
What Huang Sheng said is actually not only something done in Jizhou, but also in Youzhou by many clans and surnames.

Moreover, compared to Jizhou, which is far away from the Dudu Mansion, the clans in Youzhou have an innate advantage. The clans in Jizhou are based in Jizhou, with a large population, branches, fields, etc. Naturally, they cannot just leave. They can only cultivate a few reading seeds first. Come out and let them go north to Youzhou. They must first obtain Youzhou household registration and take the imperial examination.

"As long as these reading seeds can pass the imperial examinations, the ethnic group can use the resources of the clan to support them well, let them spread out in Youzhou, and after laying the foundation, they will gradually transfer money."

Speaking of this, Huang Sheng suddenly laughed and asked: "Gentlemen, do you remember that many families moved south because of Youzhou's policy of suppressing aristocratic families, and many of them entered Jizhou. Now this The group of people regretted it the most, but no matter how much they grieved, it was useless, because every move was recorded in the Secret Service, and the people in their clan had no hope of taking the imperial examination."

What he said seemed to be lamenting, but there was a sense of schadenfreude in his words.

Everyone in the teahouse also understood the reason. Many people chuckled, but there were also one or two people who had blank expressions. They were obviously related to the families who went south and were worried in their hearts.

Huang Sheng was talking, and then said: "After talking about Jizhou, we should talk about Sizhou. Sizhou was originally the center of the world, a stronghold of the imperial court, and the place where the true dragon entrenched itself. But now the dragon has left the city empty, and the city is empty. Several families share it, and because it is located in the center, it is actually a place of four wars. Many people in the state are displaced, but generally they are wealthy."

Someone in this restaurant said again: "We have a lot of people going north from Luoyang." It can be seen that even in this teahouse in the county seat of Pingzhou, people from all over the world gathered.

"That's right. Luoyang was the land of dragons before. There were many customs and rare treasures from all over the world would gather here. When paper and pottery were produced in Youzhou, they first entered Luoyang and then flowed into Jiangzuo. , and was praised by scholars and famous figures, so it became popular all over the world."

He paused, took a sip of water, and then continued: "The name of Governor Chen was also spread because of this. Nowadays, Luoyang is in chaos and Sizhou is divided, but the name of Governor is even more resounding. Therefore, when the imperial examination incident comes out, that Sizhou People in the state, whether from aristocratic families or commoners, all have followers, and if we really count, the ones who are least enthusiastic about this matter, or even have resistance, are actually still in Jiangzuo."

"Jiang Zuo?"

Everyone in the room listened and looked at each other subconsciously, trying to find people from Jiangzuo among the people around them. However, when they looked at it, they suddenly realized that there was really no one from Jiangzuo. people.

"Now there is King Langya sitting in Jiangzuo, and there is the Yangtze River. It is a corner of the Yangtze River, and it has its own sect, and most of its foundations are people from aristocratic families. As many of us may understand, the land of Jiangzuo is nothing like ours. Pingzhou can be said to be two worlds, completely different! It is a place where life and death are intoxicated, everyone is a celebrity, and the circulation of nine grades cannot be changed by a small imperial examination news. "

Someone asked: "So, no one from the Jiangzuo family will take part in the imperial examination?"

Huang Sheng shook his head and said: "There are some, most of them are commoners. Jiangzuo is a place for aristocratic families to enjoy themselves, but it is not a comfortable place for commoners. As long as someone wants to change their destiny and get ahead, there will be no shortage of people who go north to take the imperial examination. In addition, In addition, many children from aristocratic families also went north to take the imperial examination."

Someone immediately judged: "These children of aristocratic families are not engaged in production, and they are not short of success in Jiangzuo. I am afraid that they came to the north to take the imperial examination just to play in the world."

These words aroused the displeasure of many people, especially those from poor families, and even many commoners, because these people knew very well that children from aristocratic families had enough to read poetry and books, and there was no need to distract others from discussing knowledge, In terms of ability, he is much higher than them, and he also has personal connections.

Even though the Northern Governor's Mansion is independent of the two imperial courts, and even vaguely hostile, in fact, regardless of these two political entities, just look at the people inside, even after several years of civil and military competitions and a major coup. In the imperial examination, the main body of the bureaucracy still came from aristocratic families.

After all, the interest class that is formed after starting a family from the imperial examination cannot be formed in a short period of time.Therefore, from all aspects, those children from aristocratic families who are not religious about the imperial examination are likely to be the biggest beneficiaries of the imperial examination.

"That's not the case," Huang Sheng saw what everyone was thinking, and he explained with a smile, "There is also another purpose in this. Although the imperial examination is disliked by the Jiangzuo family, in their view, But it is a method that can strengthen the connection with the Dudu Mansion, so it is naturally keen on it, and it is the same to send children here."

"These aristocratic families know how to plan and calculate!" someone couldn't help but mutter.

Huang Sheng smiled, and then talked about the situation in Shu. It could be seen from his words that this man didn't know much about Shu, but he had a general idea. By saying this, he let everyone know that he knew about Shu. It is relatively isolated, not well-informed, and there are many comfortable people, so there are not many who really want to go north to take the imperial examination.

However, some of Huang Sheng's words were recorded by a person in the corner. Afterwards, they were written into an article and quickly passed on.

After many twists and turns, this article was placed in front of Chen Zhi.

He glanced down for a few times and smiled at Tong Hai beside him: "This Huang Sheng is really a Bai Xiaosheng type of person. Most of what he said is right. It's just a little different in Shu, but the difference is not far behind." .”

Tong Hai asked for advice.

Chen Zhi said with a smile: "The country of Tianfu is located in the basin. It has been a locked-up situation since ancient times. There are many people who have separatist rule, but it is difficult to get out. However, it is also difficult for outsiders to break through. But as long as one day enters Shu, it will often be overthrown. ." As he said this, he couldn't help but think of Liu Bei's ending in history.

Tong Hai said at this time: "This Huang Sheng is quite capable, and my subordinates want to draw him in."

Chen Zhi glanced at him and said with a smile: "You need to recruit helpers. You don't need to ask me for instructions. It seems that you think highly of this person."

"That's it. I want to entrust you with an important task, so I ask for instructions." Tong Hai did not hide it, and he knew that he could not hide it. His lord was now like a god in the eyes of many people.

Chen Zhi waved his hand and said, "It's all up to you. After all these years, don't you still believe your own eyes?"

After receiving this order, Tong Hai breathed a sigh of relief, and then followed Huang Sheng's analysis and talked about the world situation.

"Let's see." Chen Zhi squinted his eyes and looked at a map hanging on the wall not far away, "If the Xuanjia Army moves again, it won't be like destroying the Hu Kingdom. Before that, and Watch and see which way the world's power is flowing."
