Chapter 1108 Foundation(2/2)

"It was just Emperor Xiaowu's great talent and great strategy. What other national policies did he pursue at that time?"

Feng Junhou said slowly: "At that time, Emperor Xiaowu vigorously promoted the order of favor, so that all the children of princes and princes had the right to inherit."

"Why do people in the world only remember respecting Confucianism but not the order of grace?"

When Pei Qian heard this, he didn't know why, but felt a slight dampness on his back.

Why did Emperor Xiaowu respect Confucianism and practice kindness?

Isn’t it just for a better family and the world?

For each big family, shouldn't it be to strengthen the clan and weaken the side clans?

But listening to what Feng Junhou said, I always feel that it’s not the same thing?

"In the past, the kings and princes were more powerful than the emperor, so the emperor would not tolerate them. Looking at the situation of the world today, many wealthy families built strongholds, had their own clans and soldiers, and had countless fertile fields."

"Both men and women are dependent on each other, and the government's actions must be based on their faces. Can this be called the kings and princes of the former Han Dynasty?"

When Pei Qian heard what Feng Junhou said, cold sweat poured down his forehead, and he didn't know how to answer.

It’s not that no one can see the harm caused by a wealthy family.

In the former Han Dynasty, no one dared to take the lead in the military, and most relied on the good family members in the army.

However, Emperor Guangwu defeated Wang Mang and extended the Han Dynasty to Zuo. The person he relied on was the local tycoon.

Therefore, in the two hundred years of the Later Han Dynasty, the rule of the world relied on local right-wing officials and the aristocratic families that developed from the right-wing officials.

Both Emperor Wu and the upright people who followed Emperor Wu had committed illegal acts to attack the powerful rightists of the wealthy families.

But it is only for illegal actions.

No one has ever thought of shaking the family from its foundation.

The words spoken by Feng Junhou now made Pei Qian break out in a cold sweat because these words had touched upon the foundation of the noble family's inheritance.

If the Jihan court really wanted to imitate Emperor Xiaowu and implement the order of favor to the famous families in the world...

Thinking about that situation makes people shudder.

Pei Qian subconsciously advised:

"Your Majesty, this matter is of great importance. I'm afraid it will be criticized by thousands of people!"

When Feng Junhou heard this, he suddenly laughed:

"Where did Mr. Pei think my reputation for being clever, charming, and ruthless came from?"

Isn't it just those so-called aristocratic families?

Why did they lock it up?

Is it because Feng Junhou has shaken their foundation over the years?

Feng Junhou said leisurely:

"Aristocratic families from Shu, wealthy families from Liangzhou, there are countless people who hate me to the core, otherwise...hey!"

Feng Junhou disturbed the foundation of the wealthy family, and the wealthy family did not want to disturb the foundation of Feng Junhou?

This forced Feng Junhou to take the initiative to clean up the Xinghan Society, and his methods were not ruthless.

As for those so-called reputation reviews, they are secondary.

When he heard Feng Junhou mentioning Shu and Liangzhou, Pei Qian reacted:

The Feng Gui King in front of him had killed countless local wealthy families in the two places, so how could he be afraid of being criticized?

"Now there are rumors in Hedong that last year I preferred to fish by the river and deliberately allowed the chaos in Hedong."

Feng Junhou looked at Pei Qian and said calmly:

"This is both true and false. I say it is true because I really like to see the Hedong family lose its vitality."

"No, it's because at that time, Hedong was still considered a rebel. Why did the big man help the rebels to quell the chaos?"

By this time, Pei Qian's back was already soaked.

He looked at Feng Junhou with a wry smile:

"Junhou, by the way, I am also a son of an aristocratic family. Is it appropriate for you to tell me this?"

"What's inappropriate?" Feng Junhou smiled slightly and glanced at Pei Xiu who was standing next to him. "I would like to recommend Pei Langjun to study at the Royal Academy. I wonder if Mr. Pei is willing?"

"Royal Academy?"

"Yes, it is Nanxiang Royal Academy. In recent years, many local officials in the Han Dynasty were selected from students from the royal family."

"Moreover, the Han Dynasty intends to implement the examination system to replace the examination and promotion system. If you want to take the examination, going to the Royal Academy to study first is the best way."

Feng Junhou's eyes fell back on Pei Qian again, "If it were anyone else, I wouldn't have said these words, but as for Mr. Pei, that's different."

Feng Junhou didn't say why it was different.

But Pei Qian already understood, and he sighed.

On the surface, it seems that King Feng Gui wants to promote Pei Xiu and win over himself.

But in fact, the other party simply wanted to use his own words to convey news to the aristocratic families in Hedong and even Hebei.

Pei Qian turned his head and glanced at his son subconsciously.

Pei Xiu looked at his master with some confusion.

As a young man, no matter how precocious he was, he would never have imagined that King Feng Gui would involve himself in something big enough to turn the world's aristocratic families upside down.

Pei Qian stretched out his trembling hands, trying to take the teacup and drink some water to calm down his shock.

At the same time, I was thinking quickly in my mind.

Promising King Feng Gui, Axiu will have no worries from now on. In order to implement the family's favor order, Ji Han will definitely establish him as the spokesperson of the Pei family.

But if you accept the support of King Feng Gui, it means that you have to respond to Ji Han's favor order from the family.

If successful, we can refer to the Li family in Longxi. As long as the Pei family's transformation is successful, they can continue to be prosperous for at least three generations.

If he fails, the Pei family will fall into the abyss. At least his own family will be torn into pieces by the wealthy families in Hebei and Guandong.

Just thinking of the encounter between Shu and the powerful Liangzhou family, Pei Qian felt a sense of despair and powerlessness again.

If the Wei State could not stop Ji Han's eastward advance, what could the noble family do to stop the noble family from extending the favor order?

"Your Majesty, this matter is of great importance. Although I am the head of the family, I cannot make the decision without authorization. I must go back to the clan and discuss it with the clan elders."
