Chapter Thirty-Five Time Knocking at the Window (3)
"Father, what's wrong with you?... Li Wei asked with concern.
"How is this possible?"
This is another wrong idea.
[bsp; In fact, the suppression of Li Shimin and Li Zhi was very uncomfortable with the five surnames and seven families. However, these big families have the arrogance of the big family and have never been willing to bow their heads and admit defeat. When Wu Zetian relaxed, it was also a helpless move. The targets of Wu Zetian's suppression were mainly targeting the upstarts of Guanzhong and Qigui of Daibei. They could not suppress the whole country, and they did not dare to. Therefore, they instead wooed the Shandong gentry. Once, many children of the Cui family, Zheng family, Li family, and Lu family took the opportunity to enter the court, including Cui Shi, a handsome man who asked Shangguan Wan'er and Princess Taiping to bow their backs. But as the entire big family, they were not optimistic about the Wu family and did not go out. By Li Xian, they didn't even manage their own wife, let alone suppressing the five surnames and seven families.
However, the policies left by Li Shimin and Li Zhi still exist, including the imperial examination system and the family system to employ people. The imperial examination system was originally an opportunity, but the early imperial examination system was mainly composed of tribute students in two supervisors, and the five surnames and seven families had little chance. Therefore, the situation of the five surnames and seven families still did not improve.
Until the Anshi Rebellion, he lost control of the entire country, and it was already like this. It would be better to win over several major Wangmen's special forces.
The Li Tang royal family took the initiative to put down their airs and even relaxed the imperial examination system. To what extent, Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty loved his daughter Princess Wanshou married Zheng Hao, the brother of Zheng Hao, the living man of the Zheng family, and was seriously ill. Xuanzong sent an envoy to comfort him and asked me where the princess was. The envoy replied that he was watching the theater in Ci'en Temple. Xuanzong was furious and called Princess Wanshou, saying, "Why is my uncle seriously ill and not looking at me?" He scolded him severely and ordered the envoy to send him to the Zheng family to apologize.
Just a brother-in-law, why should I be a slander of my daughter?
That's it, Zheng Hao was not very happy. It was Bai Minzhong's idea to marry Princess Wanshou. Zheng Hao, who was not happy with the country, had always hated Bai Minzhong because he married the princess for the rest of his life.
The gentry is so noble.
Later generations were not very clear about this history, and even ranked the prime minister at one time, and even ranked the Pei family, Xiao family and Wei family above the Zheng family. This is a wrong idea. For example, now, several officials from the Pei family have become high-ranking officials in the court. Pei Xingjian is a capable general in the hands of the emperor, who can be both literary and martial. Pei Judao is equivalent to the father-in-law of the country. Pei Yan is the number one general under Wu Zetian. How dare the Pei family say that it is nobler than the Zheng family? For example, in Wu Zhou, several people in Wu family were kings and dukes, and Li Xianshi, and even four Weis were prime ministers at one time. But can they be Wu Bantang, Pei Bantang and Wei Bantang?
However, once the Tang Dynasty relaxed the major surnames in Shandong, there would be stories like Zheng Bantang and Cui Bantang immediately.
This is a long cultural and historical heritage. The family members are very large and have cultivated a large number of talents. They have existed for many years and have monopolized many resources. In addition, they are rigorous in their behavior and style. In addition, they are influenced by Hu Feng, not like the Tubo Wulu family who asked Li Wei for their blood relationship, but they attach great importance to marriage and try every means to ensure that their blood relationship is noble. In the world, how many families have five surnames and seven families with noble blood relationships?
Therefore, even if there is no one in the Zheng family, they are far more noble than Pei Xiaowei's several families.
But this is ultimately a false appearance. Arrogance is just a tower in the air. As Li Wei said, if the skin does not exist, where will the hair be attached? During the rebellion of Jing, Jiangzuo became a Qiuxu, Yu Jin broke into Jiangling, and his ranks and soldiers were not subordinates. After two blows, the Jiangzuo gentry completely collapsed. In the Huang Chao Uprising, "there are no more than half of the royal family's bones and armor..." Then, in the hands of Emperor Zhaozong of Tang, Li Zhen of the poor family planned and Zhu Wen made efforts, saying that it was difficult to control those who were dressed and looked forward to it. So he killed Pei Shu and other famous officials in Baimayi and threw them into the Yellow River. From then on, let alone the ninth rank, Zhongzheng, there will be no more rank.
Among the five surnames and seven families, the Wang family in Taiyuan was the weakest, and the Li Tang rebelled successfully in Taiyuan, so he was the first to be "unclear" with the imperial court. However, the Wang family in Taiyuan, Zheng, Li and Cuilu, only regarded them as golden jade clothes, but among other families, the Zheng family was a little weaker, and Luoyang was closest.
After Li Wei ascended the throne, he pointed to the five surnames and seven families. Therefore, the Zheng family in Xingyang was even more worried. The tougher suppression of each generation is ultimately unfavorable to their family. Moreover, it seems that the king of the king ascended the throne, the more harmful it is to their family. Li Wei happened to be in Huaizhou, and the trip was very clever, and he made a big circle, as if he deliberately bypassed Xingyang, which made the Zheng family think so well. So Zheng Lian and his party came.
This is the internal affairs of the five surnames and seven families, and outsiders still don't know. In Li Zhi's mind, these big families were very stubborn and the court suppressed them several times. However, these families secretly enjoyed the secrets of the court, and even the seven families were not allowed to be connected with each other, nor were married to women at high prices, but they still refused to listen. There was no way to deal with them, and the ministers were not good at it. Even the favorite ministers such as Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng and Li Ji did not care about the emperor's wishes and even married each other. All these things caused the relationship between the two sides to be more complicated than the relationship between Li Wei and Wu Zetian, with resentment and discomfort.
So Ji Zhi was extremely surprised.
Li Wei once again told the story.
"Hong'er, it's done well." At this time, Li Zhi didn't care that the Zheng family's relative was a businessman. He hated him in his heart, and it would be better to marry a beggar to get angry.
Wu Zetian also smiled and patted Li Wei's hand and said, "Hong'er, don't be happy first. Only when the Zheng family's daughter is married can we count."
This is a grudge, which leads to the two most noble people in the world having a good mentality.
Of course, this is not the case for being happy.
The Wang family in Taiyuan had a long time contacted the royal family because of geographical relationship. Moreover, the Wang family in Taiyuan was not worthy of the five surnames and seven families. The Zheng family in Xingyang was the real big fish. This show of kindness does not mean that all the five surnames and seven families were expressing their opinions, but it was equivalent to knocking on the curtains through a window curtain. People outside said to open the curtains and let me take a look. People inside said, "Wait, I'll come soon."
It's like a poke breaking.
Only when the five surnames and seven families defected to each other, this Tian family was truly respectful.
But this is not a serious matter.
As a time traveler, I have a calm mind, and I have no intention of being disgusted or deliberately trying to climb up. I have a good side and good education, and can set a standard for the people of the world. There are also many talents who have not been used by the court. But there are more disadvantages.
Li Weicai objectively targeted the five surnames and seven families, but did not take action, but said something obscurely.
Li Wei said again: "This is a good start."
"Yes, the only one of the five surnames is the only one, and the royal family has always been very embarrassed." Wu Zetian Dao. Not only the royal family, but also people from poor families like her are even more embarrassed.
"But Mother, have you ever thought about what would happen if the five surnames and seven families really put down their bodies and followed the imperial court, each of them was full of talents. If they did not pass the imperial examination, they would have passed the imperial examination?"
Wu Zetian frowned, and this problem was a bit of a headache.
The five surnames and seven families are very arrogant. The court can use excuses to suppress the court. However, once you put down your stance and show good news to the court, the court will no longer suppress the court as before. Not to mention letting them participate in the imperial examination, even the Imperial College would openly open the door to them.
If so, with the talent resources of the five surnames and seven families, at least half of the people who pass the Jinshi exam in the future will be from their family.
The cultural level is comparable. When the examiner sees that he is a disciple of the five surnames and seven families, the impression score will be added. It is impossible for every minister to beg for marriage like Li Yi's mansion, and then he will be jealous of him.
Do you have to adopt the system of misleading names?
Seeing his mother's doubts, Li Wei did not say that the system of fame should also be said today. He has been ascending the throne for almost two months and has been fighting and cannot do anything. He dared not do it. Wang Anshi's reforms were just because he was forced to do what the consequences were? Could it be that Wang Anshi originally wanted to be good in the Song Dynasty? At that time, Song Shenzong should have a strong opinion on his words, and there were no aristocratic families. Wang Anshi came back and raised the world with great hope. All of them were the consequences. Look at himself, the court was constrained by his parents, the court was uncoordinated, and there were these powerful families in the wild. Li Wei was in a stern heart and needed his mother's cooperation to do good deeds.
Let’s leave the famous system behind and say another thing. He said: “Father, mother, son-in-law, son-in-law just said that Taizong said that the people can overthrow the boat, and that is the people of the world, not the powerful, famous family, or foreign relatives. Therefore, son-in-law had an idea to open a village school in various counties and townships so that good families can also receive educational opportunities.”
"It's not right..." Li Zhidao. Fighting is a struggle. As his original intention, he wanted the Tang Dynasty better than Wu Zetian. After all, this is his family's foundation.
Li Wei said before that Li Zhi has never commented on it.
It’s not that you don’t want to popularize it, and it’s hard to say it’s open. Once education is popularized, it is equivalent to enshrining the people. But as the ruler himself, in addition to winning over a few elites, he has always adopted the policy of fooling the people. It’s best for the people to know nothing so that they can be obediently.
Li Wei said: "Father, no, the people are people, people, not livestock. They also have their own wisdom. If they are dissatisfied, they can do great things even if they are illiterate. How many means have they used? However, how many years have they been in each dynasty? My father doesn't want our Tang Dynasty to have a year of life, even if it is a five hundred years of foundation? The foolish people... is not a solution. We must find a way to calm their minds. This mentality means reducing the gap between the rich and the poor, at least to allow them to have food, clothes to wear, and houses to live in. In addition, they also give them appropriate respect.
This is the real kingship. Moreover, popularizing education can take the opportunity to teach them etiquette and loyalty to the emperor and patriotism. Only in this way can the people not rise up. Moreover, only by giving them the opportunity to educate, with bamboo paper and movable type printing, the cost is low. What books can the court choose to teach, and even if they are given official imperial examinations, the court can also dispatch and control it. Not only that, only when many people in the world are educated, they will not let the powerful and noble families become the only one. Father, the change of the Southern and Northern Dynasties is mostly caused by the powerful and important officials, and has nothing to do with the people. Too heavy power is also a bad thing."
Li Zhi hesitated a little.
Li Wei showed his trump card at this time and said, "A lot of things have happened during this period, and I don't want to expand it any more."
I didn't say it anymore, and Li Zhi would understand it too.
Zhu Jingze can't explain the three major events in the past few days, and he is worried about the hearts of the people. Wu Zetian vaguely feels that Xiangdai is very important to his son, but it is not clear how important it is. But whether it is the case of Wu Chengsi in charge or someone who wants to murder, he will make a comeback and use some means to infinitely expand the situation, and may even make Li Wei completely turn the tables.
Don't be too much. As long as you are under the banner of eliminating evil in the court, Li Wei has this right again, using murder cases to carry out stolen goods, kill all Wu, and even Wu Zetian has abolished her, Li Wei can completely turn the tables. Once Wu Zetian falls, Li Zhi becomes blind, and then no rights can be controlled.
But Li Wei didn't want to do this, there were many variables, and his mother wouldn't surrender.
This is like playing chess. If you play this favorable situation and don’t continue to play, let’s make concessions and make an approximate Duizi.
And until now, Li Wei only talks about state affairs and has not yet appointed any important officials.
Li Wei also said: "Not only is this move, but also the martial arts affairs discussed by the Queen Mother, because of the system of missing the name, it has been undecided for a long time. Although these are some of the problems, they are all long-term strategies to benefit the country and the people. Father, the Queen Mother, it is better for the three of us to join forces to issue a letter of complaints and get these two things done."
It is reasonable and I see that there is no benefit of interest disputes, so that you two old people can take it. When there is a interest dispute, the three of us will jointly bear it.
Wu Zetian looked at him suspiciously and said, "Hong'er, I don't understand very much."
This is not a rabbit or a hawk.
Li Wei had no choice but to say, "Mother, take a look."
He took out the memorial of Wei Hongji.
This case is easy to investigate. Once you arrest and then you will be investigated, everything will come out.
Including how much money and how much money Wu Chengsi was given to Wu Quanzi himself, they all confessed. It also proved that Wu Chengsi knew a little about what his subordinates did, but he was very silent about it. With these confessions, it was enough for Wu Chengsi to drink a pot of wine.
However, Li Wei said: "This is the random act of the people below. It is related to the mother and queen's relatives, and they also have to be in the face. Moreover, Wu Quanzi killed someone, which would be a life-threatening person. Since he committed a death sentence, the son-in-law's bookmaking method was like a child's play, and he could not count it. As for the stone case on the cliff, it may not be targeted by the son-in-law. There is also Princess Wu Chengsi, but he dare not accept it. The mother-in-law was just kind and could not forcefully persuade him to accept it..."
You have no jokes, and the Queen Mother can’t jokes.
But Li Wei's change has nothing.
Then, looking at my mother, not only my mother, but also my father. My father definitely hoped that the court would be hindered, but the situation was getting bigger and bigger, and this must not be what my father expected. A great situation would bring three major events that benefit the country and the people, so he had to give up the opportunity to resign Wei Yuanzhong and others to return to Beijing.
But Li Wei was not sure. Will his mother be at a disadvantage this time?
