Chapter 57 Shocking Theory

Tiandao Building.

Chen Qilin was dozing on the sofa, closing his eyes to rest.

Since Wang Ying became a maid, Chen Qilin has become particularly leisurely.

After several months of training, Wang Ying can already make many delicacies by herself, and some are even better than Chen Qilin.

Whatever he wants to eat, he just needs to call.

The sturdy black dog also squatted on the side, yawning.

[Ding! Ying Zheng, Fusu, and Li Si came to Tiandao Building! ]

Eyelashes trembled, Chen Qilin opened his eyes, and the light in his eyes flowed.

What did Ying Zheng and the others come for?

Moreover, Ying Zheng seemed to be very good at picking time!

Almost every time he came when it was almost time for dinner.

Brother Zheng is simply a professional freeloader!

Chen Qilin muttered to himself.

Soon, Ying Zheng and his party came to the reception room of Tiandao Building.

Chen Qilin greeted them with a smile: "Your Majesty, Crown Prince, Prime Minister Li, welcome, welcome, please sit down!"

Li Si hurriedly said: "Sir, I am no longer the Prime Minister, please call me by my name!"

After Li Si was dismissed because of the Zhao Gao incident, he never resumed his position as the Left Prime Minister.

Chen Qilin smiled and said nothing.

Ying Zheng took the lead and sat on a leather sofa, and said to Fusu and Li Si: "You two sit down too!"

The First Emperor spoke, and Fusu and Li Si sat down.

Chen Qilin said: "Three, coffee or tea?"

"Sir, give us a cup of coffee!"

Ying Zheng said, looking at Li Si, and said: "Li Si, you haven't tasted the taste of Mr.'s coffee, try it today!"

"Yes! Today, I will borrow the light of Your Majesty and try the coffee!" Li Si cupped his hands.

Soon, Wang Ying brought four cups of coffee to the reception room.

Ying Zheng took the coffee, took a sip, put it down, and said seriously:

"Sir, after the last commendation order was announced to the world, the remnants of the Xiongnu will definitely fight you to the death. I'd better send some people to protect you secretly!"

Ying Zheng really cares about you!

The remnants of the Xiongnu are cruel. If they really kill into the Tiandao Tower, the consequences will be very serious!

He doesn't want to see you, sir, encounter an accident!

Now you have become Ying Zheng's wise brain!

Chen Qilin waved his hand and said:

"No, Your Majesty, I appreciate your kindness!

But please don't send someone to protect me secretly. The person who can take my life in this world has not been born yet!"

Secretly protect a hammer!

In Chen Qilin's eyes, Maodun and other Xiongnu remnants are treasures. He doesn't want Ying Zheng to scare them all away!

Chen Qilin also hopes to rely on Maodun and others to quickly improve his cultivation to the Golden Core Realm.

"Then you should be careful, sir. Maodun is known as the first warrior of the Xiongnu grassland, and his martial arts are amazing!" Ying Zheng still said with concern.

Chen Qilin nodded, and then asked: "Your Majesty, Prince, Li Si, why did you come to Tiandao Tower this time?"

Ying Zheng said: "To be honest, sir, I have encountered a problem, and I came to ask you for advice!"

"Your Majesty, please tell me!" Chen Qilin said.

Ying Zheng did not immediately say what he meant, but said in a deep voice: "Come on, move the things in the carriage in!"

"Yes!" The voice of the guard came from outside the door.

They carried three large boxes into the reception room of Tiandao Tower.

Chen Qilin glanced at it.

[Ding! The things in the three boxes can be exchanged for 90 Tiandao points! ]

Chen Qilin smiled and said: "Your Majesty, you are so polite!"

"Sir, it should be! You have to pay a price for deducing the secrets of heaven, and I should reward you!" Ying Zheng said.

Chen Qilin nodded, Brother Zheng is so generous!

He asked, "Your Majesty, if you have anything to say, you can tell me now!"

After taking a sip of coffee, Ying Zheng put it down and said, "Sir, the Qin Dynasty is short of talents now, especially talented civil officials..."

Ying Zheng told the gentleman in detail about the difficulties he encountered.

When Chen Qilin learned this, he did not speak immediately, but began to think.

The reason why the Qin Dynasty was short of talents, especially civil officials, was:

First, when the Qin Dynasty was first established, many nobles of the six countries hated Qin and were unwilling to serve as Qin officials.

For example, Zhang Liang, who was full of knowledge but wanted to assassinate Qin, and Xiang Yu, the representative of the brave war faction, were rare civil and military talents, but they would not be used by Qin, and were concentrating on the dark road of rebellion, and ten cows could not pull them back.

Of course, even if they were willing to be loyal, Qin Shihuang would not necessarily use them.

After all, the hatred of destroying the country and the family was there, who knew whether these people would severely mess with the Qin Dynasty after becoming officials!

Second, there were also big problems in the Qin Dynasty's official selection system.

There are three main official selection systems in Qin:

Hereditary official system, recommendation system, and academic official system.

[Hereditary official system] means that official positions are hereditary, and officials are limited to the aristocratic group. Even though many changes were made from Shang Yang's reform to Qin Shihuang's unification of the world, the hereditary official system still existed in Qin.

For example, the Baozi (Baozi) system. The so-called Baozi means that the official position is obtained by relying on the position of his father or brother.

For example, the official position of "Shi" is also hereditary.

"Shi, a recorder of events", mainly engaged in writing and recording and other textual work, including divination, astronomy, calendar, geography, etc., collectively referred to as Shi.

Shi is a hereditary career, and like the divination officials, they are "father and son officials, passed down from generation to generation".

[Recommendation system] is also called "Ren".

Li Si was recommended by Lu Buwei to be a Lang, and Bai Qi, the killer of the god, was recommended by Ranghou...

Recommendations cannot be made at will, and the recommender must be responsible for the behavior of the recommended person. In addition, if the recommender commits a crime, it will also implicate the recommended person.

[Student-official system] The so-called student-official system is to learn from officials, take officials as teachers, and become the official's apprentice... After learning, you can become an official through this way.

Of course, in addition to the above three official selection systems, Qin also includes: entering the officialdom through mastering the law, opening up land for military merit, etc.

In general, whether it is the hereditary official system, the recommendation system, the student-official system, or the system of mastering the law to enter the officialdom, basically excludes children from poor families.

There is no need to say more about the hereditary official system. In the recommendation system, you are a poor child with no family wealth and no reputation. Even if you have some talent, who will recommend you, a poor family?

If you commit a crime, you will also implicate these officials.

If they want to recommend, they will give priority to recommending relatives, such as their own descendants, or the descendants of other wealthy people.

The same is true for the student-official system. Do you want to be an apprentice of a high-ranking official?

Then first of all, you either have family wealth or come from a big family. Unless you are a genius who has never been born, it is out of the question for a poor family!

Even if a poor family has talent and wants to meet a high official, they will not pay attention to you and will not give you a chance to show your talent!

Basically, all the channels for poor families to enter the government are blocked.

The most common people in the world are children from poor families. There are many smart and capable people among them, but they have no connections, no money, and no blessing from their ancestors, so they can only be excluded from the system.

The Records of the Grand Historian records that Han Xin: When he was a commoner, he was poor and had no morals, so he could not be recommended as an official, and he could not manage his life and business (do business)...

Even a big man like Han Xin, who was a military fairy, could not be recommended as an official because he had no connections and no wealth, and he was poor and destitute!

…

"Sir, is there any way?" Ying Zheng asked when he saw that the gentleman was in a daze.

Chen Qilin came back to his senses and nodded: "Of course there is a way!"

"Then is this money enough for the gentleman to deduce?" Ying Zheng asked.

Chen Qilin said: "Enough! Your Majesty, wait a moment!"

He moved three boxes of property into the backyard, exchanged them for Tiandao points, and came to the reception room again.

Ying Zheng, Fusu, and Li Si all looked at him without blinking.

Chen Qilin lit a thick cigar, took a puff, and said leisurely:

"Your Majesty, if you want to solve the problem of talent shortage, you can follow the example of King Zhou of the Shang Dynasty!"
