But in fact there are many problems.

When Dahua was just founded, this system might still be able to operate without any major problems.

But now, there are big problems in every link.

When local governments recommend talents, they no longer rely on talent, but on relationships and background.

If you don’t have a strong enough background, do you want to be recommended?

Don't even think about it.

Chen An was recommended in the first place thanks to the appreciation of the teacher Dong Heng.

Otherwise, even if he is talented, it will be useless if he does not have an appearance ticket.

As for the so-called assessment, it is already a joke.

The so-called talented people recommended from everywhere are basically incompetent children from powerful families.

Since all those who have become masters have gone to practice martial arts, the rest can only work hard and reluctantly enter the Imperial Academy and work as officials.

It's a no-brainer to expect these people to do anything.

According to Chen An's understanding, not many of these people can do anything, but they are definitely good at eating, drinking and having fun.

Expect them to manage the people living in a place?

The result was so beautiful that Chen An didn't dare to think about it.

"Cancel the Imperial College and start assessments directly?"

The fourth prince subconsciously said: "Isn't that too much talent?"

The original number of Imperial College Examinations was very small, less than a hundred people every three years.

But now if the threshold is removed and everyone regardless of high or low can participate in the assessment, how many people should be admitted in the end?

Are there so many positions for them to do?

"The standards can be lowered."

Chen An spoke softly: "In the past, when students from the Imperial College were sent to other places, they were at least magistrates of one county. It was even more unimaginable for the noble ones..."

"This is actually a bit high."

"If we follow this set of standards, no matter how many positions there are, there won't be enough points."

"But in reality, it only needs to be given the position of a minor official in one county."

"It is normal to hold a position in one place for a certain period of time, and if you pass the assessment, you will be promoted at that time."

Cheng Zheng nodded slowly: "But if this continues, the Imperial College may be abolished in the future..."

From his perspective, he can certainly see the benefits of doing so.

But if the assessment scope is enlarged and faced by everyone, then there seems to be no need for the existence of the Imperial College.

"No, it's still necessary."

Chen An said with a smile: "You can apply both at the same time. After the Grand Examination is held, the Imperial College can still exist, and as long as the students who enter the Imperial College can go out to serve as officials, they can be several levels higher than the students who graduated from the Grand Examination."

"And the students of the Imperial College no longer need to be recommended from various places. They can be directly selected from the families of distinguished nobles."

"Think of it this way, the great nobles should be satisfied and won't object to the exam."

The third prince's eyes lit up, and he finally laughed.

"You are very considerate."

He couldn't help but nodded, admiring Chen An even more.
