Li Shimin looked at Fang Xuanling in shock.

That expression, no matter how you look at it, it feels like you are looking at a mentally retarded person.

He was chilling.

I really didn't expect that such words could actually come from the mouth of the Prime Minister of the Tang Dynasty.

The reform of the imperial examination can win over the hearts of scholars, so that the clan system can be legitimately implemented?

Isn't this nonsense?

In the Sui Dynasty, Yang Jian used great courage to forcefully reform the nine-level Zhongzheng system that had ruled for hundreds or even thousands of years.

The imperial examination system can be said to be the center of the world.

After such drastic reforms, the Sui and Yang gentry still lost to the seven sects and five surnames in the selection of clan annals.

Yang Jian used this method, but in the end he failed to win the clan chronicle selection.

Now Fang Xuanling actually proposed to use the imperial examination method to win the hearts of scholars.

How can Li Shimin understand this?

He really didn't expect that Fang Xuanling would come up with such a trick after thinking about it for so long.

"Prime Minister, don’t fool me."

"The imperial examination has been reformed for decades. Although it has a promotion effect on scholars, the effect is... In fact, it is just like that!"

"Now you are talking about using the imperial examination system to win over scholars. Isn't this absurd?"

"Isn't this just a random idea you came up with?"

"Stop making trouble and think about it. Is there any other way? Otherwise, bribe scholars with large sums of money? Although this move is a bit shameful, it seems to be okay in your name, Fang Xuanling."

Fang Xuanling:"……"

Damn it!

You are an emperor after all, can you not let me take the blame for everything?

Fang Xuanling coughed dryly and said,"Your Majesty, please listen to me in detail."

For most of an hour.

Fang Xuanling roughly finished the name-blinding system, the copying system, the supervision system and the non-recommendation system.

By the time he finished speaking, his mouth was already feeling dry.

Look at Li Shimin again.

At this time, Li Shimin's eyes were widened to the extreme, and he looked at Fang Xuanling in horror.

"high!"

After a long time, Li Shimin gave a thumbs up

"The prime minister and I are simply like the ovary and Liu Bei!"

Li Shimin was really shocked.

The reform of these four systems is not a drastic reform of the imperial examination.

It does not affect the core interests of the imperial examination.

But its effect is absolutely shocking.

In the past imperial examination system, no one can escape Disadvantages.

Unfair, unjust, and very maneuverable!

This made some scholars complain.

They even criticized the court.

People's hearts are like this. You have obviously done what is best for others.

But maybe because of a certain point If you have any shortcomings, all the beneficial things you have done in the past will be criticized by others.

People are like this, and you are not as good as a little bad if you are good to them.

Li Shimin knows people's hearts well.

He also sees the reason why scholars are not ashamed of the court.

Over the years, he has tried to change, but it is very difficult.

It is the easiest to win over people's hearts, but it is also the most difficult to win over the hearts of everyone in the world.

But no matter what,

Li Shimin believes that this imperial examination reform will be a success. Come out, the scholars in the world will definitely return home!

In this way, at the Twelve Paths Representative Conference in a few days, who will the scholars stand for?

It goes without saying!

Li Shimin was so happy that he almost took off

"high!"

"Fang Xuanling, Fang Xuanling, you hide everything!"

"I have been thinking hard at home these days, and I have finally come up with a plan that will change my life!"

"You are worthy of being the pillar of the Tang Dynasty. Having a Prime Minister like you in the Tang Dynasty is simply a blessing to the Tang Dynasty and to me!"

Nah!

The more Li Shimin flattered him like this, the more ashamed

Fang Xuanling felt. I am the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, and this matter actually comes from Li Yi.

What a shame!

Li Shimin has obviously already fell into a state of madness

"House Prime Minister! I no longer know what words to use to praise your wisdom!"

"No matter what, you saved me and my face!"

"I am a face-conscious person, you gave me my face and my scenery!"

"Your talents and learning are unique throughout the ages!"

Fang Xuanling:"……"

He said with a twisted look on his face:"Your Majesty, don't rush to praise me."

"No, I don’t! I think you are great, and I just want to praise you!"

Oh my God!

Fang Xuanling feels as if he has eaten shit."

"The strong wind knows the strong grass, and the rough wind knows the wise ministers!"

"The Prime Minister of the Tang Dynasty is unique throughout the ages!"

"call……"Fang Xuanling took a deep breath, licked her face and said,"Your Majesty, I'm ashamed. Li Yi said this method."

All of a sudden.

Not only Shanfang Xuanling was embarrassed.

Li Shimin was also embarrassed.

Just now he was bragging about business, but he knew it was over and he was bragging about the wrong person.

This is very embarrassing.

At least for Fang Xuanling, it was already embarrassing.

The dignified prime minister of the Tang Dynasty was actually worse than an eighteen-year-old boy.

How could this not make Fang Xuanling feel ashamed.

Dunima carries his head on his shoulders.

Why is I not as good as Li Yi?

Li Shimin couldn't stop coughing violently:"Ahem, it's Li Yi, oh, have you perfected the housing phase? If you have perfected it, it's considered very good at least."

Fang Xuanling:"……"

Obviously, he was retelling it without adding any of his own thoughts or personal information.

Damn it!

Li Shimin was embarrassed again and said quickly:"Actually...ahem...haha, can you explain it again? At least it can show Mr. Fang that your memory is good, right?"

Fang Xuanling was shocked:"I don't brag about anything else, but my memory. I haven't lost to anyone in this area!"

At this time, the embarrassment finally eased.

Then the monarch and his ministers began to laugh unbridled.

Laughing shamelessly

……

Huangmen servant Cui Mansion.

Ancestor Cui said disdainfully to Cui Mingan:"Li Erlang is anxious.""

"The dog jumped over the wall in a hurry"

"It's really shameless, let Fang Xuanling make Longyou Li Xiu the number one in the clan!"

"Li Shimin didn't even take a pee and look in the mirror. He himself was just clinging to Longyou Li shamelessly. In fact, how could he clear up his miscellaneous identity?"

Cui Minqian was also a little disdainful.

In the early Tang Dynasty, the aristocratic families all felt disdain for the royal family from the bottom of their hearts.

This kind of feeling is easy to understand.

It is like a wealthy family who has worked hard for three generations and is suddenly outshined by a wealthy man who buys lottery tickets.

This deep-seated disdain and discrimination cannot be changed.

The seven sects and five surnames look down on Li Tang, and even the Jiangnan nobles look down on Li Tang.

This was the status quo of the early Tang Dynasty.

If Li Shimin wanted to reverse this status quo, he had to revise the clan annals.

But isn’t this humiliating oneself?

Cui Minqian said:"Mother, the representatives of the Twelve Dao scholars have their hearts towards our Qinghe Cui family. At the representative meeting tomorrow, if Fang Xuanling really dares to list Li Tang as a clan First, just wait to be laughed at by everyone in the world! Ancestor Cui chuckled and said:"Li Shimin is really not afraid of embarrassment, so I just sit back and wait to see how Li Shimin smooths things over!""
