For Zhou Yu, in ancient times thousands of years ago, it was a delusion to implement the democratic republic system for future generations. Building houses on sand without foundations, the result was that even the framework could not be built.

Only by establishing a system that is conducive to imperial power, using the "foresight" of a time traveler, so that society will no longer be turbulent, allowing the people to live and work in peace, allowing China to be prosperous and powerful, and maintain a leading advantage in economic and military strength, can we avoid the shame in the history of later generations!

Zhou Yu also knew that at this stage, whether it was Jiangdong and Jingzhou, where the new policy was implemented for many years, the Central Plains that were soon quelled, or the Bashu, Xiliang, Liaodong, and Mobei, which had just been surrendered, they were generally in a state of incomplete life, and the lives of the people were still in a difficult situation. The officials at all levels of state, county and county were not yet fulfilled, a large number of officials were vacant and lacked management, and the local wealthy families were very powerful and had many hidden dangers. It was not advisable to make too big or too violent changes at this time. Otherwise, arousing their resistance would be a failure to achieve a haste.

At this moment, stability is the top priority!

Therefore, within half a year after Zhou Yu ascended the throne, there was no major change to the existing official system. However, undercurrents and undercurrents, Zhou Yu kept summoning close officials to discuss and implement the new official system, and gradually had a complete plan. The important officials in the court who held great power gradually had a clearer understanding. As a close friend who had followed Zhou Yu for many years, he naturally supported it with full support.

However, some officials whose family interests are damaged are greatly affected by the Qin and Han official systems. In addition, the superior mentality of the aristocratic families and families, they felt a little unhappy when they learned about the reform of the official system and often complained when drinking. How could they hide this from Zhou Yu's eyes and ears? Jingwu Wei's eyes were densely covered all over the world, and the information was transmitted quite quickly. Soon, a list of top-secret officials was presented to Zhou Yu's book case.

Zhou Yu remained silent. After ten months, he started the action and transferred the two officials in the collection academy to specialize in repairing classics. Although his position was at the same level, his power had been removed. The other officials immediately woke up. They knew the meaning of Zhou Yu's move, so they had to restrain their words and deeds and carefully consider the content of the official system reform that Zhou Yu wanted to recommend. Many people secretly exclaimed that Zi Zhen Shenlong was alive today!

With the booming situation of the new dynasty, it was time for Zhou Yu to promote the reform of the official system. Among the three reforms, the imperial examination system for selecting talented officials was especially important. Zhou Yu knew very well that in this era of family prestige, only by establishing a relatively fair and just imperial examination system and enriching government officials at all levels with the selected outstanding talents, the subsequent official system reform and other political orders could be truly implemented.

Therefore, Zhou Yu's first change order was to implement the imperial examination system.

In October of the first year of Jingkang, Zhou Yu issued an edict to implement the imperial examination system nationwide to select officials and set up the "Examination Tribunal Academy" in Jinling, where he was responsible for the relevant matters of the imperial examination.

Later, the Examination Court announced the detailed rules of the imperial examination system.

The imperial examination is divided into six subjects, including scholars, Ming Jing, Jinshi, Mingfa, Mingshu, Mingshu, Mingshu, Mingshu, Mingshu, Mingshu, Mingshu, and Mingshu. The scholars are the highest subjects, and the examination strategy is required to be familiar with the classics and history and proficient in the strategy of governing the country. Mingshu, Mingshu, Mingshu, Mingshu, Mingshu exams are specialized in knowledge, and after the finals, they are generally unable to serve as senior officials. The Mingshu exams mainly test Confucian classics, with nine serious classics, "The Book of Rites", "Zuo Zhuan" is the great classics, "Mao Shi", "Zhou Li", "Yi Li" is the middle classics, "Zhou Yi", "Shangshu", "Gongyang", and "Guliang" are the small classics. Those who are proficient in two classics are one big and one small, or two middle classics. At the same time, they must also learn the "Book of Filial Piety" and "The Analects of Confucius". The Jinshu exams, the three exams of "Miscellaneous essays and countermeasures are the most complicated and are the most likely to select the urgently needed pillars.

Those who are expected to be awarded include student and tribute. Students mainly refer to students who are in charge of Imperial College, Imperial College, Four Schools, Laws, Calligraphy and Mathematics, as well as royal relatives and noble descendants who study in Hongwenguan and Chongwenguan. They study Confucian classics in school, and after passing the exam for the study period, the library supervisor will be sent to participate in various subject examinations. In addition, those who register in the county and county, pass the county level and pass the county level and are sent to participate in the imperial examinations by the county government, which is called tribute.

Those who are expected to pass the exam will be included in the reserve selection of officials. They must also participate in the imperial examination before they can officially obtain official positions. The top ten places in the exam are all selected by the emperor personally, and they are called the palace examination. The first place in the palace examination is called the "top scholar", the second place in the palace examination is called the "second place", and the third place in the palace examination is called the "Tanhua".

In terms of examination time, because all kinds of people are in a state of trouble and officials at all levels are in urgent need of officials, so they are temporarily held once a year. March is the examination for each county and county. Those who pass the selection must go to the capital Jinling to participate in the formal examination held in September of that year.

The imperial examination system introduced by Zhou Yu, based on the actual situation, combined with the content of the imperial examination system of the Tang and Ming dynasties in history. It adheres to the principle of "free registration, unified examination, equal competition, admission to the best, and public list", completely breaking the hereditary relationship of blood and the monopoly of aristocratic races, and a direct and powerful reform and denial of the Han Dynasty's inspection and recruitment system. It provides a platform, opportunity and conditions for "small families are not prominent families" and ordinary people to enter the officialdom through imperial examinations, allowing a large number of outstanding talents with low status and humble backgrounds to stand out, "being a farmer in the morning and ascend to the emperor's hall in the evening", "No one has ever asked for ten years of hard work, and became famous in the world."

Once the imperial examination system was launched, it shook the land of China like the thunder of the Jingzhe Festival. The poor families rushed to tell each other and participated enthusiastically. From then on, they also had the opportunity to change their own destiny and change the fate of the entire family!

The children of those aristocratic families received a good education since childhood. Although they could not be able to become officials as easily as before, they also had more ways to prove their knowledge. From the bottom of their hearts, they were not very resistant to the imperial examination system, and there were many people who signed up for the exam.

In September of the second year of Jingkang, a total of 3,000 candidates who passed the preliminary examination in various parts of the country gathered in Jinling to take the official examination. In October, the list of those who passed the examination was announced. As the first imperial examination in the Dahua Dynasty, 300 outstanding talents were selected for the court!

Those who are on the list are excited. Those who fail the list are dejected and return to their hometown, adjust their mood, study hard all night, and continue to take the second year's exam.
