Luo Zhaoyun sent people to summon several ministers to the palace to discuss matters. These people include Wei Zheng, Ma Zhou, Zhu Suiliang, etc., who are not from family backgrounds and have low family status. They are all selected to be officials through special promotions. They are currently around the fourth and fifth ranks. Although they are not first and second rank ministers, they are all placed in the real power positions of various departments.

These people were all taken very seriously by Luo Zhaoyun and were also some capable generals who broke the Guanlong noble forces.

In the imperial study room.

Luo Zhaoyun asked: "How are you preparing for the scientific expedition in the spring?"

"Avoid the test papers, all of which are prepared. In addition to policy discussion, they also include arithmetic, literature and history, the scores of the three subjects, and the cumulative total scores, arranged by high and low." Wei Zheng answered respectfully.

Luo Zhaoyun was very concerned about the imperial examination system because tracing history and breaking the monopoly of the family, the system of selecting scholars was started from the Sui and Tang Dynasties. With the emergence of the imperial examination, some knowledgeable patriots were selected to serve the court.

Of course, the Sui Dynasty began and the Tang Dynasty developed. In the Song Dynasty, the imperial examinations were truly formed and the scale was completely failed.

In the Sui Dynasty, the main person was the juren. After Emperor Wen of Sui ascended the throne, the ninth rank Zhongzheng system was abolished. In the first month of the third year of Kaihuang, Emperor Wen of Sui issued an edict to proclaim "virtuous and kind"; in the seventh year of Kaihuang, he ordered the capital officials to be above the fifth rank, and the general manager and the governor, and the two imperial examination officers were given "ambition and practice" and "a clear and pacified" and "a clear and pacified" and "a clear and pacified" and "a clear and pacified" and "a clear and pacified".

In April of the third year of Daye of Emperor Yang of Sui, he ordered civil and military officials who had duties to be "filial and respectful," "good morals and honest", "become a righteous person", "clean in charge of justice", "be honest and honest", "be honest and upright", "be strong and upright", "be honest and upright", "be honest and unyielding", "be honest and skillful", "beautiful and beautiful", "being talented and arrogant", and other ten imperial examination candidates. However, because Emperor Yang of Sui was short-lived in power and had been out on patrols and wars all year round, the imperial examination system was once abandoned.

The real Jinshi class started in the Tang Dynasty, and the permanent subjects include more than 50 common subjects, including scholars, Mingjing, Jinshi, Junshi, Mingfa, Mingzi, Mingzi, Mingsuan, etc.

Based on his understanding of history and combined with the 21st century exams, Luo Zhaoyun has deleted and added them, and focuses on political and theoretical, adaptable, literary and historical, comprehensive knowledge, etc. according to the selection of civil servants.

"We will prosper in troubled times and promote literature in prosperous times. Although the situation in the Central Plains is still full of wars and wars are on the rise, those princes and the princes are not enough to compete with Dahua. Therefore, in less than three years, the world will be unified. At that time, how to rebuild after chaos, stabilize the Central Plains, and control the situation in various places is the top priority. It is easy to conquer the world, but it is difficult to defend the world. Now our scientific research system is to constantly select civil officials, select talents, focus on practical work, and know how to govern the local area." Luo Zhaoyun expressed his considerations.

Ma Zhou, Wei Zheng, Kong Yingda, Zhu Suiliang and others were either from poor families or from declining families, and had no background. They were suitable for Luo Zhaoyun as a direct lineage. He planned to support a group of direct lineages without backgrounds to balance with some noble ministers of the aristocratic family.

"What Your Majesty said is reasonable. The world can be defeated by military generals, but the guardians are indeed the best at guarding the country. The county magistrate, county magistrate, and county magistrate each perform their own ambitions, and two civil officials and one military officer can make the local administration stable and not cause chaos. As for the army, it can station corpses in some key areas and set up military governors to restrain each other. It will be difficult for military generals to cause trouble." Zhu Suiliang made a suggestion.

Luo Zhaoyun nodded, he had this idea. Zhu Suiliang was still very good at understanding the Lord’s ideas, and it coincided with it.

Next, Luo Zhaoyun asked about the population recovery situation under Dahua's jurisdiction. Ma Zhou served as the Minister of Revenue and replied: "Your Majesty, those who fled the mountains and forests have been recalled one after another, and have started to farm and resume production. The population has returned to about 80% of the ten years of Daye. As newborns continue to be born, the population has increased accumulatively."

Luo Zhaoyun nodded. In ancient times, due to the low medical conditions, the probability of children dying was too high and the lifespan of a person was relatively low. Therefore, the population should steadily increase, so that society and farming should be stable.

In addition, Luo Zhaoyun was also very interested in the commercial operation of Chang'an City. Zhu Suiliang said: "Report to Your Majesty, according to the reports collected by the Ministry of Works, the imperial court's ceramic official kilns, crystal glass, fine salt, liquor, printed publications, etc., all triggered a new trend in Chang'an City. These workshops managed and manufactured by the official have made huge profits, especially fine salt, which is much better than before, and the quality of toxic coarse salt is much better. People's edible salt has been improved, and even their physical fitness can be improved, and their diseases are much less. Even the Western Regions and the grassland tribes have sent envoys to buy Chang'an fine salt and crystal crafts!"

Luo Zhaoyun also saw through some memorials and was quite satisfied with these progress. He continued: "Drafting a bill, continuing to increase the adjustment of business, and encouraging business. However, when doing business and opening a store, you need to apply for a license for industrial and commercial business from the Ministry of Industry based on the size and type of business, pay taxes regularly every month, reduce taxes for farmers, increase taxes on merchants, and avoid the gap between the rich and the poor, and make huge profits from merchants!"

"I understand." Zhu Suiliang bowed to the teachings.

At this time, Guo Xiaoke, who was serving in the Privy Council, said: "Your Majesty, some generals were transferred back from Taiyuan County, Luoyang and Youzhou, and have arrived in the capital. I wonder when Your Majesty will summon these people."

Luo Zhaoyun smiled slightly and said, "I want them to rest. Soon, I will summon them and entrust them with important tasks. There is a tough battle waiting for them to fight."

The ministers in the imperial study all looked at each other, wondering what puzzles the emperor was fighting or what plans he set up.
