Chen State won the imperial examinations, and eight out of ten officials were selected through the imperial examinations.
Although this method of selecting officials avoids being monopolized by aristocratic families and indirectly controlling the court, over time, some other problems will also be exposed.
For example, the educational resources of Gyeonggi and Gangnam are far better than the rest of the roads, and the number and quality of students are also higher. Half of the officials in the court come from Gyeonggi and Gangnam
It seems fair, but it is actually unfair
Officials from Jiangnan naturally went to Jiangnan. They were once students of Gyeonggi. The first thing they thought was to seek benefits for Gyeonggi. They distinguished themselves from the region in the court and formed various parties. Although there were many differences within the party, they would be consistent with the outside world when it came to issues related to the interests of the place of origin.
This led to the capital and Jiangnan occupying most of the resources of the imperial court. There were not many officials in Beijing, and the people were slight, and they were suppressed by Jiangnan and Jingmin. If others eat meat, whether they can drink soup depends on the other party's mood.
The root cause of this problem is nothing more than that compared with the south of the Gyeonggi Province, there are not many juren in various fields, and there are naturally fewer Jinshi. No one speaks in the court, and no corresponding benefits can be obtained.
Once this situation changes, as proposed by the Marquis of Dingguo, Jiangnan and the capital each give them 20% of the quota. Although the status of the Taoists in the court cannot be completely reversed, it will always improve.
This is almost a free bargain. Who would be so stupid that he refused?
The Marquis of Dingguo said it is reasonable!
Lord Tang’s proposal is very good...
Please agree on it
I also agree!
……
For a time, all officials from the Gyeonggi and Gyeonggi in the Dynasty, who were from the Gyeonggi and Gyeonggi, stood up and agreed that this was for the benefit of all of them. How could the Marquis of Dingguo stand up and face the officials from the Gyeonggi alone?
Officials representing Jiangnan's interests wanted to refute, but when they saw such a situation, they shut their mouths one after another.
Your Majesty is obviously determined to weaken the influence of Jiangnan in the dynasty. They are just trying to win more benefits and cannot change the final outcome.
Now Tang Ning has only cut 20% of their quota, and has not added it to Jingji. Instead, it has also cut 20% of Jingji. Jiangnan is not unacceptable to this result.
Tang Ning looked calm. Although he had not communicated with anyone in advance, before he made the proposal, he expected so many officials to stand up and support him.
Although Jiangnan and Jingji are powerful in Korea, no one can compare to them. However, when the two factions unite together, the two factions must avoid their edge.
This matter is beneficial to them and is considered a free bargain. These people should know how to do it
The number 20% was considered for a long time. It will not hurt the root of Jiangnan and Jingjin, but will also satisfy Emperor Chen, and will also make the rest of the world moved. If it is higher than this number, Jiangnan and Jingjin may fight with him. If it is less, Emperor Chen will probably feel that it is not enough...
Emperor Chen glanced at Tang Ning, looked down, and asked: Does anyone have any objections to the proposal of the Marquis of Dingguo?
No one spoke in Jiangnan, which means that officials in the Gyeonggi area are naturally dissatisfied with this proposal. This matter had nothing to do with them, and Gyeonggi was purely suffering from unrestrained disaster.
An official stood up and raised his hand to speak, when Tang Ning looked at him and asked with a smile: Does the Zhongshu Ling have any objections to the official’s proposal?
Zhongshuling looked at his kind smile and felt a sudden realization of something
Your Majesty handed over this matter to Tang Ning. If he couldn't do it well, wouldn't he be dereliction of duty?
If Tang Ning was punished by His Majesty for a dereliction of duty because of him, he would definitely blame himself. The Secretariat did not think that his background was deeper than the Tang family and his official position was higher than that of Feng Xiang...
He looked back at the colleagues in the capital. Seeing that they all lowered their heads and did not dare to stand up, he was secretly angry. When he raised his head, he smiled and said: The Marquis of Dingguo misunderstood. The Marquis' proposal is reasonable and the official also thinks it makes sense...
He turned to the direction of Emperor Chen, bowed and said: Go back to Your Majesty, the proposal of the Marquis of Dingguo, I will discuss it with you.
I'll discuss...
Attached...
……
Leading the Secretariat, officials from Gyeonggi and Gangnam also stood up and agreed that 20% of the figure was not enough to risk their risk of offending Tang Ning and officials in the court.
Since that's the case, then do it. Emperor Chen glanced at Tang Ning, and a look of regret appeared in his eyes, and said: If there is nothing to do, just leave the court...
The situation in the court today was as expected by Tang Ning. Gyeonggi and Jiangnan did occupy too much resources from the court, which made Emperor Chen dissatisfied. However, as officials from these two places, they would not think that what they had obtained was enough. The words he asked Zhongshuling in the court just now actually had a hint of threat.
Unexpectedly, one day, he would be domineering others and become a powerful minister in the mouths of others.
Thank you, Lord Tang!
The Marquis of Dingguo said frankly that I would like to represent the students of Henan Taoism, thank you for your kindness!
My Taoist son in the Guanzhong will surely remember the kindness of Lord Tang!
The lower officials represent Huainan Road...
……
After leaving the hall, many officials who had never spoken before bowed to Tang Ning and said thanks. Tang Ning gave him one by one.
Seeing someone coming out of the hall, Tang Ning asked with a smile: This incident caused a loss to Gyeonggi Province. Will the Secretariat Ling hold a grudge against this official?
The Secretariat quickly said: I dare not, don’t you dare...
Don't dare?
No, no... The Secretariat quickly changed his words and said: Lord Tang is also dedicated to the public. How could I hold a grudge against you? Lord Tang must not think so...
Really not holding a grudge?
I really don’t hold a grudge! The Secretariat quickly said: However, Lord Tang caused Jiangnan to suffer losses this time, and Shizhong Zhang may feel dissatisfied...
Don't talk nonsense!
Shizhong Zhang came over from behind and said: King Duan wants to cut my quota in Jiangnan by 30%. Lord Tang helped us reduce it to 20%. I thank Lord Tang for not having time, so why would you feel dissatisfied? Please stop sowing discord...
Isn't it to cut 20%?
Lord Tang, look, Zhongshu Ling still feels unfair...
……
When the Secretariat Ling and the Shizhong had a quarrel, an eunuch trotted over and said: Lord Tang, Your Majesty summons you to the imperial study room...
Seeing Tang Ning leave, the Zhongshu Ling and the Shizhong breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
No one is willing to offend this favorite minister whom His Majesty values the most. This time, he represents His Majesty's intention, and it is indeed not for himself. If the trouble ends, they will not end.
Tied all prefectures except Jingjin and Jiangnan to his ship, causing Jiangnan and the capital to be in a dilemma and successfully completed the task assigned by His Majesty--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Secretariat sighed and said: Gao, it’s really high...
……
In the imperial study room, Emperor Chen paced and murmured: Miao Ah, cut the quota of juren in Jiangnan, and at the same time cut the capital to block Jiangnan's mouth, and used the other trajectories to constrain the capital, which not only weakened the parties in Jiangnan and Jingjin, but also allowed the two parties to continue checks and balances, and also won the people's hearts of the other trajectories, killing three birds with one stone, and killing three birds with one stone... Why didn't I expect this?
Wei Jian smiled and said: If you have such a smart minister under your command, why do you need His Majesty to think about it?
Although he did this beautifully... Chen Huang stroked the short beard on his chin and said: But if I don’t hit him, I still feel uncomfortable...
Soon, Tang Ning walked into the imperial study room and bowed and said: See Your Majesty
You did this beautifully. Chen Huang sat in his seat, looked up at him, and asked: I have given you such a difficult errand, do you feel resentful?
Tang Ning shook his head and said: Eat the king's salary and share the worries for the king. This is the duty of the minister.
Chen Huang smiled and waved his hand, saying: This matter is indeed a little tricky, it is normal for you to have resentment, this is human nature, I don't blame you
Tang Ning said: I really have no resentment
Emperor Chen didn't believe it: Isn't it really?
Tang Ning said solemnly: Nothing really!
He glanced at Emperor Chen. This routine was too old-fashioned and childish
Who can't enforce the fishing law? I'm afraid that even if he nodded slightly and said something, he would ask someone to drag him out and hit the thirty-four boards. He had never encountered any scenes like Tang Ning. How could he get caught in this trick?
Very good, do your duty without complaints, this is my good minister
Emperor Chen stood up, walked down, looked at him with relief, and asked: By the way, which foot did you step into the imperial study just now?
Although this method of selecting officials avoids being monopolized by aristocratic families and indirectly controlling the court, over time, some other problems will also be exposed.
For example, the educational resources of Gyeonggi and Gangnam are far better than the rest of the roads, and the number and quality of students are also higher. Half of the officials in the court come from Gyeonggi and Gangnam
