The six-dimensional pictures of emperors of all dynasties were exposed, and the ancestors panicked

Chapter 261 Laying the Foundation for the Imperial Examination System Pattern
Great Qin.

The First Emperor was shocked for a quarter of an hour!

Ying Zheng slowly pulled away from the absurd feeling in his heart and began to think seriously.

There is something wrong with you Wu Zhou!

Li's wife succeeded to the throne in order to inherit the legal principles and appease the old ministers.

But you also respect Wu's father and ancestors as emperors.

Then should your throne be passed on to the descendants of the Li family or to the descendants of the Wu family?

Passed to his son Li Dan, Wu Zhou died, unless she just had fun.

And the surname passed on to the Wu family...

Since ancient times, it has never been heard that a nephew is the emperor, but he builds a temple for his aunt!

Ying Zheng looked at the sky, and then continued to approve the bamboo slips.

The legal principles are unclear and the inheritance is unclear.

Wu Zhou will not last long.

……

Big man.

Silence, deathly silence.

Liu Bang looked at the sky with his normal expression.

Lu Pheasant on the side also looked calm.

The attendants in the palace lowered their heads.

"It's amazing..."

"Eshen...what do you think I should do?"

Lu Pheasant turned his head and looked at Liu Bang.

Although his appearance is still young, what is revealed in his eyes is not that innocent.

"Didn't you make arrangements a long time ago?"

"If I guess correctly, Shusun Tong, Xiao He, Zhang Liang and Chen Ping must have completely removed the Lu family from the court at this time."

Liu Bang leaned on the soft couch and looked at Lu Pheasant, and said sincerely:

"Eshen, I believe in you, but I don't believe in Lu."

Lu Pheasant smiled and nodded.

"If there is a word missing, I have to change a word and add a sentence."

Liu Bang raised his eyebrows.

Lu Pheasant slowly said:

"You don't believe me, and you don't believe Lu."

"You don't believe anyone."

……

Great Sui.

Yang Jian looked at Dugu Jialuo secretly.

"What are you looking at! You don't believe me!?"

Dugu Jialuo was impatient and shouted sharply.

"No, no, no... Look, I didn't say anything..."

Yang Jian was frightened and quickly denied it.

Dugu Jialuo glared at him bitterly, then stepped forward to hug the child and turned away.

"Hey! Hey! Garo! Where are you going!"

Yang Jian quickly followed, and Dugu Jialuo turned his head and glared.

The Sui Emperor immediately stopped.

Dugu Jialuo snorted coldly and walked towards the West Palace with his child in his arms.

"I'll go find you tonight!"

Holding on to the doorframe, Yang Jian shouted loudly.

……

Datang.

Li Shimin rested his elbows on his knees, covered his face and said nothing.

The sudden impact made his mind go blank.

Heard something, seen something unseen.

Fortunately, Xuanzong is still there...

"Clap!"

Under the surprised gazes of all the ministers, Li Shimin slapped his face twice to wake up.

Then he stood up, put his hands behind his back and said:
"No matter how hard she tries, even the country's name has been changed."

"But as long as she admits that she is the daughter-in-law of the Li family and inherits the Li family, her throne will be legitimate."

The ministers were horrified when they heard this.

Just as he was about to speak, Li Shimin raised his hand and stopped.

"So, although it is the Zhou Dynasty in name, it is actually the Li Tang Dynasty!"

"The Wu family's desire to succeed to the throne is simply a fool's errand!"

They were just shocked to the point of losing their minds by the scene of the first female emperor, but the ministers were not crazy.

With just a few words, he immediately understood Wu Zhou's inherent shortcomings.

That is, the emperor is a woman!
It is the wife of the Li family who succeeds the Tang Dynasty!
The Wu family and the Li family have no blood and patriarchal relationship, and the Wu family's sons have no reason to inherit the throne.

Usurping the throne and succeeding the throne are two different things.

……

Tang Dynasty and Gaozong period
Li Zhi sat on the bed and stared at Wu Meiniang closely.

Wu Meiniang knelt on the ground without saying a word. "Ah……"

"You do have the confidence to be confident."

Li Zhi's words were sarcastic and helpless.

The deposed king and Li Wu were already on the string and had to be fired.

At this time, there is no time to train another Wu Meiniang.

but……

Li Zhi glanced at Wu Meiniang, who looked calm.

Forget about the back position.

Then he looked towards the sky.

The governance methods need to be drastically changed.

……

[Although Wu Zetian ascended the throne at the age of sixty-seven, she did not think that this was the limit of her abilities. 】

[She wants to prove that a woman can still accomplish something as an emperor. 】

[Having been in power for more than ten years, she understands that it is impossible to maintain the normal operation of a country with only cruel officials. She needs to appoint a group of real talents to govern the country. 】

[Naturally, she set her sights directly on the imperial examination. 】

[In the imperial examinations in the early Tang Dynasty, the candidates themselves wrote their names and place of origin. 】

[So fraud in the examination room often occurs, which leads to a situation where there is no fair competition in the imperial examination. 】

[Because it was felt that this imperial examination system was difficult to select people with both ability and political integrity into the imperial court. 】

[She decided to implement the "name anonymity method" in future imperial examinations. 】

[After the implementation of the "Name Anonymous Law", the occurrence of examination fraud was effectively prevented, which was a great progress in the imperial examination system. 】

……

Northern Song Dynasty Zhenzong Period
Zhao Heng snorted coldly and was noncommittal.

Yes, it was banned after a few years of use.

That's nice to say.

If Emperor Taizong hadn't continued this system, it would have disappeared long ago.

……

[In the first month of 692 AD, Wu Zetian sent ten people headed by Prime Minister Shi Wuzi to patrol the Taoism, called the Ten Dao Cunfu Envoys. 】

[Then it was introduced that all the people recommended by Cunfu, regardless of whether they were wise or foolish, were promoted and given various official positions for probation, "the capable ones stay, the mediocre ones go"]

[This is where the probation system begins. 】

……

Ming Dynasty Jiajing Period
Zhu Houcong said while reading the memorial:

"What do you think of her method? It's clever or not."

Hai Rui heard this and said without thinking:
"It's just a waste of money and position to win people's hearts."

Zhu Houcong glanced at him and snorted softly.

"Although Wu Zetian appointed officials indiscriminately, she attached great importance to the appointment of government officials."

"Especially the appointment of the prime minister, we attach great importance to it."

Hai Rui cupped his hands and said bluntly:
"The prime minister has many things to do every day. He is under one person and above ten thousand people. Whether he wins the person or not is of great importance."

"Queen Zetian promoted Wu Chengsi, Wu Sansi and other clan members and confidants to the position of prime minister. I'm afraid she won't be able to take the position of attention."

Zhu Houcong threw the memorial on the case and said coldly:
"But she only uses them from time to time. Even when she does, she mainly uses their relationship with herself to monitor other courtiers."

"And administrative power is in the hands of the prime minister who has both ability and political integrity."

"Although there is excessive ridicule for middle- and lower-level officials, we can keep the capable ones and remove the mediocre ones based on their actual performance."

"It is through this eclectic way of employing people that she has consolidated her rule!"

Upon hearing this, Hai Rui looked directly at the emperor and said loudly:

"Your Majesty is talking about Queen Zetian, or Your Majesty yourself."

Zhu Houcong was stunned for a moment, and then his face turned red!

"boom!"

Take action!

"Inverted!"

Then he grabbed the case book and threw it away.

"Get out of here!"

Hai Rui picked up the memorial at his feet and bowed:

"My minister retire."

Zhu Houcong looked at Hai Rui's leaving figure and became furious.

"Inverted!"

……

[In February 690 AD, in order to win people's hearts, he personally presided over the palace examination in Luoyang Palace. For a time, elites from all over the country gathered in Luoyang, and tens of thousands of candidates took the examination for several days. 】

[This palace examination left such a deep impression on the world that "Zi Zhi Tong Jian" simply obliterated the palace examination presided over by Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty, saying that Wu Zetian initiated the palace examination. 】

[However, the palace examination was not initiated by Wu Zetian, but was indeed continued by the system established by Wu Zetian. This cannot be denied. 】

[Finally, she believes that although there are some people who have no culture, they have courage and martial arts. Such people should also have a future. 】

[In 702 AD, the martial arts examination was created, allowing people with outstanding martial arts skills to take part in the examination. 】

[The subsequent dynasties until the Qing Dynasty all used this pattern to enrich and develop. This was Wu Zetian's contribution to the imperial examination. 】

……

　What Wu Zetian was able to talk about in great detail was all private matters. There are very few serious historical materials from the east and west, and they are all mentioned in passing or even not mentioned at all.

　　Or it would be mentioned suddenly every 800 pages or so, without beginning or end.

　　The information is hard to find.
