Prehistoric: A steady life, starting from Journey to the West

Therefore, Wu Mingkong was obviously a little disappointed when he heard Chen Qi's suggestion of "reopening the imperial examination to select scholars based on talent".

Because she didn't think this method could break the family's monopoly on knowledge and talents.

Chen Qi also saw Wu Mingkong's reaction.

It's just that he didn't explain too much, but said indifferently: "Yes, the imperial examination can become the method of selecting talents for the great dynasties and fairy courts in the wild, and there must be no problem."

"The only difference is how to use it!"

It has to be said that although the Sui and Yang Dynasties died in the second generation, the two kings of the Sui and Yang Dynasties are well-deserved peerless heroes.

Especially the pioneer of the Sui and Yang Dynasties, Yang Jian.

Chen Qi felt that Yang Jian was definitely a seriously underestimated emperor in the history of Yanhuang.

Otherwise, in his previous life on Earth, Yang Jian would not have been called one of the three emperors of Yan and Huang who had the most profound influence on history by Westerners!

The imperial examination system!

It was Yang Jian who first proposed to create it.

Then, it became popular in the entire prehistoric world in an instant, and it became known as the main talent selection method of all major dynasties, and even all dynasties.

From this, we can know Yang Jian's horror and awesomeness.

Of course, if only one imperial examination is used, Yang Jian cannot become one of the three emperors of Yan and Huang who have the most profound influence on history in the eyes of Westerners in Chen Qi's previous life on Earth!

In addition to the imperial examination system, Yang Jian formulated the law of Kaihuang and the law of losing nationality.

As for how much influence these latter two systems had on later generations?

The first is to open the imperial law!

To put it bluntly, since the appearance of Kaihuang law, all the laws of Yanhuang, whether it is the law of Tang Dynasty, the law of Song and Ming Dynasty after that, or the law of Qing Dynasty.

They are all laws formulated within the legal framework of Kaihuang Law.

These laws are equivalent to other versions of Kaihuang Law.

That is to say, the Kaihuang Law formulated by Yang Jian, Emperor Wendi of the Sui Dynasty, became the legal framework of the Yanhuang civilization from this moment on.

In other words, before opening the imperial law.

It was Han inherited the Qin system.

The laws of all dynasties were extended from Qin Law.

And after opening the imperial law?

The laws of all dynasties have become various versions of the Kaihuang Law, with slight modifications made on the Kaihuang Law.

Even Chen Qi's modern law before time travel was based on the Kaihuang law.

From this, we can know the terrifying influence of Kaihuang Law.

Then there is the method of losing nationality!

The so-called transfer method, that is, the ladder tax rate.

I believe that everyone in future generations will be familiar with this tax law system.

That is to say, the higher the income and the more wealth, the higher the tax rate that needs to be paid, which is mainly used to collect taxes on the rich.

This is the main reason why Westerners admire Yang Jian, the Eastern emperor, so much.

Because the step tax rate method is simply too advanced, it is a system that is very beneficial to all countries and people.

While taking social equity into account, it redistributes wealth, allowing the rich to pay more taxes and the poor to pay less.

And this system, which was continuously borrowed by Western civilization, became the main core foundation of Chen Qi's tax law in his previous life.

It is precisely because Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty had a huge impact on both Eastern and Western civilizations.

That's why he was able to overwhelm so many emperors in history, and became the three emperors of Yan and Huang who had the most profound influence on history in the eyes of Westerners!

It is said that Yang Guang took big steps, but in fact, Yang Jian, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, took even bigger steps.

It's a pity that Yang Jian's policies are completely bloodletting for the aristocratic family.

So after the fall of the Sui and Yang Dynasties.

Whether it is the history of Chen Qi's previous life or the history of China in the world of earth and immortality, they are all crazily scrutinizing the Sui and Yang Dynasties.

And tried his best to reduce the influence of Sui Wendi Yang Jian, directly writing this eternal emperor as a mediocre ordinary monarch.

0 ････････････････････････････

Thinking of this, Chen Qi couldn't help but sigh for the two peerless emperors of the Sui and Yang dynasties.

Such an emperor is crazily blackened and reduced by the aristocratic family and the Confucian people.

On the contrary, puppet emperors like Li Shimin were blown into the sky.

Really sad, lamentable!

Wu Mingkong didn't know what Chen Qi was thinking. After hearing Chen Qi's words, he humbly asked for advice: "Please tell my cousin!"

When Chen Qi heard this, he glanced at Wu Mingkong and shook his head inwardly.

obviously!

Because the process of seizing the country is too easy for the Dragon Empress in front of her, she not only lacks experience in court political battles, but also knows nothing about how to govern the country.

Regarding this, Chen Qi could only explain: "The imperial examination system in the former Tang Dynasty failed, not because the imperial examination system was not good, but because the imperial examination system in the former Tang Dynasty was not in the hands of the emperor, but in the hands of aristocratic families."

"So, using the imperial examination system to deal with aristocratic families, it's no wonder it succeeds."

......................................

When Chen Qi thought of the imperial examination system in the Li and Tang Dynasties, he couldn't help complaining in his heart.

At that time, he went through the path of the Hongnong Yang family, and he barely became a small Jinshi.

You try to be an ordinary person?

Not to mention becoming a Jinshi in Zhongju, I'm afraid I won't even be able to enter the gate of the academy.

In this way, it is no wonder that the imperial examination system can break the monopoly of aristocratic families on knowledge and talents.

Although Wu Mingkong didn't know much about politics.

However, she is still very intelligent.

Just listening to Chen Qi's advice, it became clear why Li and Tang Dynasty failed in the imperial examination.

Because the Li and Tang Dynasties did not have absolute suppression when facing the world's aristocratic families, so they could only compromise and handed over the choice of the imperial examination system to the aristocratic families.

This also led to the failure of the imperial examination system in the Li and Tang Dynasties.

She Wu Mingkong is not Li Tang, she has the absolute strength to subdue the powerful families in the world.

The right to choose the imperial examination system can be taken back.

Then through the imperial examination to select talents from poor families to balance against the powerful families.

Thinking of this, Wu Mingkong suddenly became enlightened.

Seeing that Wu Mingkong was trying to understand the key point, Chen Qi smiled again and said, "Of course, it's absolutely impossible to use the imperial examination system to completely break the aristocratic family's monopoly on knowledge and talents."

"If you want to truly solve the hidden dangers of the aristocratic families, you must educate the common people at the bottom!"

"In this way, we can select a large number of talented people, break the monopoly of knowledge and talents by the aristocratic families, and let the people at the bottom understand the truth of the family, the country, and the world."

After Chen Qi finished speaking, he stopped talking.

He leisurely picked up the teacup in front of him and sipped the tea carefully.

Universal wisdom education, that is, the basic education of Chen Qi's previous life.

Only by broadening the wisdom of the people can the people at the bottom of Shenzhou be sensible and not easily bewitched by aristocratic families.

It's just that Chen Qi didn't say anything.

This road is not so easy to walk, and the difficulties and obstacles in it will definitely not be small, not to mention being an enemy of the whole world, but it is not much worse.

By doing this, he also wanted to take this opportunity to see Wu Mingkong's wisdom, determination and means.

After the discussion in the palace garden ended, Chen Qi took his leave and left.

Of course, he did not leave Chang'an City.

Instead, he asked Wu Mingkong for a decree to be able to freely enter and exit the Imperial Academy and Hongwen Library, so that he could read the books collected in the former Tang Dynasty in a fair and fair manner.

This is also one of the main purposes of Chen Qi's coming to Chang'an.

Of course, if you can take advantage of the momentum of Wu Zhou, go to Chang'an Hongfu Temple and read the Mahayana Buddhist scriptures that Chen Xuanzang brought back from Xitian Daleiyin Temple.

Even better.

After Chen Qi left, Wu Mingkong sat in the imperial garden and thought a lot.

She discovered that the way to fortune is really not as simple as she imagined.

Similarly, it is not as easy as imagined to govern a country well.

After being enthroned for more than three months, she has a clear understanding of the situation of the Wu Zhou Dynasty.

On the breadth of the territory.

Wu Zhou is definitely the head of the hundred kingdoms of the Shenzhou Human Race in the Earth Immortal Realm, occupying ten states and three hundred states in the world.

There are tens of thousands of counties and counties under it, and they are basically managed by the localities themselves.

Aristocratic family, famous family and poor family.

Interest relations are intertwined and extremely complicated.

Even if the imperial examination system was created by the Sui and Yang dynasties, it would not be easy to break the monopoly of the aristocratic family.

Therefore, there is a saying among the people that "there is no poor family in the upper class, and no noble family in the lower class".

"Throughout the ages, it is not that no one wants to change, but it is a pity that there is too much resistance and it is difficult to implement."

"As strong as Sui Yang, facing the world's powerful families, he also ended up dying for the second generation."

"This also led to the fact that Li Tang had to bow his head to the aristocratic families in the world. Even the imperial examination weapon to check and balance the aristocratic families was handed over to the aristocratic families."

"In this way, Emperor Li Tang will naturally become the puppet monarch of the aristocratic family."

Wu Mingkong said with emotion.

After an in-depth conversation with Chen Qi, she finally had a clear understanding of Sui Yang, Li Tang, and even the current Wu Zhou, and she knew the crux of the problem.

"It is said that governing a big country is like cooking small fish, but to cure a serious illness, you need strong medicine."

Wu Ming felt empty thoughts.

Only now did she understand a little bit.

Why did the kings of the first and second dynasties of Sui and Yang all want to wipe out the aristocratic families and rebuild the sun, the moon and the universe.

Gain, the shackles of ten thousand years, is on the body of the dynasty and the common people.

It was miserable.

If you can't wipe out the aristocratic family, you want to gather the hearts of the people and establish a fortune, it is simply impossible.

"Reform! Reform!"

These four words echoed in Wu Mingkong's mind, and millions of words about "Governing the Country Volume" flashed through his mind one by one.

I feel more and more that this Gewu theory is very suitable for my Wu Zhou Dynasty.

"Open the wisdom of the people and popularize the law!"

"Open the imperial examination and select talents!"

"Military merit conferring system!"

"Tiangong creation develops productivity..."

"In this way, the fortunes and fates of hundreds of millions of people are gathered into the fate of the country, and it is imposed on me alone."
