Chapter 824 Luoyang Imperial Examination (1)(1/3)

On April 8, Liu Bei appeared in public again.

Where the government posted a notice and the people were watching, Liu Bei asked the people with a smile, "My fathers, brothers, what do you think about the imperial examination?"

In the crowd, a gangster shouted, "Tell me! How can I know if I don't?"

The crowd burst into laughter.

"Okay, okay, then I'll talk." Liu Bei smiled.

After looking at his feet, he found a waste millstone. Liu Bei stepped on a high place and explained to the people around him.

"As the notice says, the imperial examination is a talented person, no matter whether he is a background, he is a talented person.

Then, what is the test?

For example, if there is a person who grows good vegetables, some villagers say that they grow well, and some say that they don’t grow well. If the government wants to find someone who is good at growing vegetables one day, how should this person be appointed as an official?"

The people replied, "This is not simple? The government is looking for someone. Isn't it okay for this person to go to the government?"

The people whispered, and it seemed that they all thought it was this.

Liu Bei smiled, "Haha! How can you not know that if the government has a good job, it will be our people's turn?

If someone is an official, who has no relatives and five tribes? If someone has errands, he will not arrange errands for closeness? Why arrange for you as an outsider?

You have good vegetables, but it doesn’t matter if you say it’s good. People don’t say it’s good, and people don’t know whether it’s good. People don’t say it’s good, but it’s good.

Think about it, is this the reason?"

The people were all indignant and said that this was the case.

After the people discussed for a while, Liu Bei said, "This move uses talents, and it depends on the recommendation of officials. Whether it is good or bad. It depends on the words of officials. This method of obtaining talents is the method of obtaining talents in the current court, and this method of recommending the recommendation."

After talking about the current situation of the court, Liu Bei then said, "As mentioned before, what is to use trial to win talents?

For example, if the vegetables are better than the ones, the government should find someone who is better than the ones who grow vegetables.

We might as well give the person who came to seek an official, and ask him to grow vegetables. In this way, who is the best person to grow vegetables is clear at a glance.

The court did not listen to the officials' words, so it chose the one who was soaked in the vegetable seeds.

This is the imperial examination. So, you can understand that this method can be justified?"

"justice!"

"justice!"

"That's what it should be, that's good!"

...

The people answered enthusiastically.

Liu Bei used easy-to-understand examples to vividly illustrate the core essence of the imperial examination law.

The word "justice" in the imperial examination law is deeply rooted in people's hearts.

Then, Liu Bei said, "What is written on the notice is regardless of origin.

What does this mean regardless of origin?

That is, no matter whether it is a peddler or a relative or a relative, he or she must be an official, and whoever has the real ability can become an official…”

"Okay, okay!"

"Well said!"

...

Before Liu Bei finished speaking, the people cheered and praised loudly. It can be seen that the imperial examinations are not distinguished from their origins, and the way to compete for officials in the same field has won the hearts of the people.

"Then, what's the only way to achieve it?

What is talent?

Understand the law, understand punishment, and be a talent for the rule of law, so you can be an official;

Those who are proficient in classics, familiar with poetry and calligraphy, and are talented in Confucianism can be an official;

Knowing all craftsmen, being skilled, and being a craftsman, can be an official;

Be brave and capable, good at archery and horses, and be brave and talented, so you can be an official.

The country is huge and requires a lot of talents. Anyone who has a talent that can be used by the country can be knowledgeable about the law, agriculture, engineering and water conservancy, classics, military strategy, archery and horse bravery, and other knowledge. However, those who are familiar with the same path can all be tried, and those who can get high can all be officials!"

It is clear that all talents that should be needed by the country. As long as they rank among the top in the imperial examinations, they can become officials.

The people were jealous, and an old farmer asked with a teasing voice, "Liu Yishi, then can I farm, may I be an official?"

As soon as the words came out, there was a burst of laughter.

Liu Bei looked at the old farmer, and amid the laughter, he looked at the old farmer seriously, "Okay, if you do a good job in the farming, you can be an official.

However, although it is a farming business, it is not easy to be proficient in farming!

Just say, if you observe the time of the sky and distinguish sunshine and rain, may it be?

Repair water conservancy and cure drought and flood, may it be?

Making agricultural tools and teaching farming, may it be?

If you can do all this, if you are really proficient, why can't you become an official?"

What Liu Bei said is deeply rooted in the hearts of everyone.

The onlookers nodded repeatedly when they heard this.

The people were convinced that although they were diligent in farming and had planted land for many years, it was really difficult to become an official with this.

Finally, Liu Bei bowed to the surroundings and said, "Good brothers, let's go and take a look."

As the people watched, Liu Bei hurried to the next place.

Liu Bei left this place where the notice was posted and went to another place. He still explained to the people in detail what the imperial examination was, so that the people could fully understand the meaning of the imperial examination.

Liu Bei firmly believed that there were many talents among the people, so he encouraged the people to participate in the exam. Liu Bei had a very prestige and appeal in Luoyang. If the imperial examination was held, the people would ignore it. However, Liu Bei stood up for the imperial examination, and the people were very enthusiastic about it.

Liu Bei wandered around the country to promote the future Luoyang imperial examination. Every time he left, he invited the people to take the exam. Regardless of whether they wanted or not, they all said that they would like to support them whenever they wanted.

Liu Bei was full of passion and was determined to select thousands of talents for the Han Dynasty. After he was busy all day long, the news of the imperial examination was successfully conveyed in Luoyang City.

One day passed, until April 9th, the people in the city were chatting about the imperial examination before and after dinner.

Another day passed, until April 10th, public opinion was fermenting, and the heat of discussion on the imperial examinations had no intention of stopping.

At a wine house, before dinner time, a guest with a thin figure and a shiny expression came. The guest was about thirty or forty years old, very tall and looked a little thin, but extremely tall. The man carried a long sword on his waist, a short sword on his waist, and a bag on his shoulders, which was dirty.

This man came to the store, went to the counter to pay, and gave up half a bunch of money, "Can you have some wine and meat? Come on some hot ones."

The shopkeeper looked at the copper coins with dark red blood sticks on the money string, and looked up at the guest. When he looked up, the guest turned around and looked at the seat, leaving the shopkeeper with a straight shoulder that was as sharp as a knife.

There was blood on the money, and the shopkeeper thought secretly, and he suspected that this person's money came from incorrectly.

The shopkeeper did not want to be troubled. Anyway, there were many people from all walks of life in Luoyang City, and there were all kinds of people.

He called the child to get the wine and meat for the guest. The shopkeeper looked at the guest who was sitting in the corner and stopped looking at it.

The wine and meat are on.

The guest in the corner seemed to be hungry for a long time. He picked up the wine jar, raised his neck and drank it in one go.

A jar of wine, without counting the news, was finished drinking it.

After drinking, the customer had a good time and grabbed the mutton and started to chew it all together. It seemed that this person was also a drunken person.

There are some other guests in the wine house, including a few foreign merchants, vegetable vendors picking vegetables in the store, and neighbors who are resting.

The locals in Luoyang who were drinking, were talking lively.

"Uncle Wang, is my uncle going to take the exam?" A passerby took a break and picked vegetables for the old man.

"No," replied the old man, "If he wants to go, he will go, but he will care."

Passers-by chased and asked, "Go! My uncle, who can fight him in a circle? If you go there, you will definitely be the first one. It would be a pity if you don't go!"

The old man laughed, others praised his child for his bravery, and the old man was proud of his child. The old man said modestly, "How can we do it? There are so many strong people in Luoyang, your uncle can't stand out."

The young man seemed to be very concerned, and kept urging the old man to let the old man go home and persuade his son to take the exam. The kindness that was concerned seemed to be a great loss if he didn't go.

The chat between the wine house, the guests carrying two swords in the corner could hear it.

Listening to the discussion in the chat, it seems that there is something to try in Luoyang, and people in Luoyang seem to be making noises.

The guest listened quietly, and he heard Liu Yishi Liu Xuande, saying that he could become a high-ranking official as long as he was ranked among the top.

The more you listen, the more interesting it becomes.

The guest couldn't help but ask, "Dare you ask, who is Liu Xuande? What's going on in the Luoyang Imperial Examination?"

Everyone who was chatting heard the sound and saw a person sitting in the corner with a sword-carrying man sitting on his back.

"You are from another place, right? You don't know Liu Xuande?" asked the old man Zhaicai curiously.

The guest who looked like a ranger bowed to the old man and asked politely, "I went to Luoyang, but I was not familiar with the people and the land. I would like to ask my father to explain it."
