Coupled with some officials outside Chaoge City, and Xu Liang himself, the Xu family can be regarded as the top dozens in the entire Yuzhou. ◢ With ◢ Dream ◢ Small ◢ Say Щщш.sUimEnG

It can be said that it is intertwined and has a wide range of relationships in big business.

Hearing Xu Liang's words, most of the many Xu family members below looked solemn with a sense of anticipation and excitement.

"Big brother, no matter what, we have to give it a try!" said the fourth-grade official among the civil officials.

"Yes, no matter what, I'll have to give it a try. ”

"I agree. ”

"I think something is wrong, what a big deal to divide the princes? How eloquent and strategic is the king? How can those three definitely be able to do it? ”

"Yes, I don't think I can act rashly, otherwise my Xu family will be ridiculed?"

............

The Xu family opened their mouths one after another, some agreed with those who couldn't wait, and some who chose not to move for the time being.

Xu Liang frowned slightly, raised his right hand, and suddenly the scene quieted down, meeting the eyes of many people, and after a few breaths, his eyes were firm, and he said in a deep voice: "Okay, I have made a decision." ”

After a pause, he continued: "No matter what, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for my Xu family, and I must not miss it." ”

"But uncle, if it doesn't work out, wouldn't it make his family laugh at my Xu family?" said one of the people below with a slight frown.

"Needless to say. Xu Liang raised his hand again and said firmly: "There are risks in doing anything, a little joke, my Xu family can afford it."

Besides, do you think those people don't want to?"

The silence of the people below is also a kind of acquiescence.

"Grandpa, are we really, going to do this?" said a young man who stood up and hesitated.

Xu Liang raised his eyebrows, looked at the young man, and said slowly: "Shen'er, what do you want to say?" ”

"Yes. The young man Xu Shen bowed slightly, and said solemnly: "Grandpa, elders, my Xu family has reached the point where it is today, and it will be even more difficult to go further, unless grandpa's strength rises to a level and reaches the realm of the six doctors."

Or become a prince, there is also a chance, so my Xu family is trying their best to fight for this throne. ”

The unhurried and orderly words made everyone in the Xu family nod silently, and looked at Xu Shen with satisfaction, the most outstanding disciple of the Xu family.

The Xu family wants to become a prince, but they don't have any thoughts of being disloyal to Dashang and Di Xin.

Even if he became a prince, he was a great merchant and a courtier of Emperor Xin.

It's just that everyone has the motivation to go further.

Of course, the temptation to be freer, to occupy one side, and to have a foundation in inheritance is also great.

Seeing everyone's approving looks, Xu Shen took a light breath and said solemnly: "But the child thinks that it was before."

Now that the king is powerful and the princes are subservient, no one knows how far the king can go?

If my Xu family becomes a prince, although I am still a courtier of the king, but after all, it is separated by a layer, and it is not good to say that in the future!"

Xu Liang and the others' expressions changed slightly, but in an instant, they understood what Xu Shen meant.

The strength of the king has reached the ancestral realm, and it may not be impossible to become an emperor.

It's no longer like the human kings of the past, who will die.

As long as you follow the king closely and gain the king's trust, the strength of the Xu family will go further, and it is almost inevitable that they will enter the ancestral land of the human race in the future.

This is undoubtedly a broader and more stable path than becoming a prince, but it will take a long time, and it may not be able to gain the true trust of the king.

Now suddenly fell silent, and the eyes of everyone in the Xu family flickered a little, as if they were hesitating and weighing.

After a while, Xu Liang raised his hand to let Xu Shen sit down, and said in a deep voice: "What Shen'er said is also reasonable, but the king is powerful, and it is possible to reign as much as one yuan."

It's been too long, and no one knows what's going to happen.

And now that the position is so close that we can't miss it. ”

Everyone in the Xu family thought about it, and in the end, most of them nodded silently.

Xu Liang looked at everyone and continued: "And after becoming a prince, there is still time in the future, and gaining the trust of the king, I believe that as long as my Xu family is loyal, the king will see it." ”

"Yes, the eldest brother is right. The four-rank civil official nodded immediately.

The four-rank generals also nodded solemnly and agreed.

The king achieved the ancestral realm, and his reign was greatly extended.

I think that the reign of each of the three emperors was two yuan.

The reign of the five emperors is one yuan.

The king is so amazing and brilliant, it is very likely that he will become an emperor, and it should be one yuan at that time, 129,600 years.

This time is too long, it is better to seize what is in front of you first, and after catching it, you can also win the trust of the king.

"Then it was decided. Xu Liang made the final decision, and everyone in the Xu family nodded and reached an agreement.

......

Not only the Xu family, but also many powerful big families and nobles in Chaoge City are carrying out similar discussions, hesitations and decisions.

Generally speaking, the stronger the family, the more thoughts about the throne.

Because in the court song and in the great Shang court, their powerful family must be subject to many restrictions.

If you want to go further and flourish more luxuriantly, becoming a prince is undoubtedly a very good way.

That is also the most powerful guarantee and foundation for family inheritance.

And people like Wen Zhong, who don't have a family, don't have any idea about the position of princes, what they care about is their own development.

Obviously, what is more beneficial to one's own development is to become a prince and in today's court, of course, in the court.

Gradually, as the news spread more and more, whether you believe it or not, under the impetus of the birth of three new princes, the matter of dividing the new princes has become more and more turbulent.

Wenchen, military generals, up to the six doctors, eight marshals, down to the outside of the Song City, Yuzhou has been dominant for many years in the official power family, and those who have ideas have all used their skills.

For a while, many busy government affairs inevitably failed to operate, which caused Di Xin to reprimand some people before they got better.

However, the atmosphere of fighting for the position of the princes is still getting more and more turbulent, and it seems that no one can stop it.

Jiuhou Mansion.

"Father, why don't we make a move?" Jiuhou's son, Jiuli, who was the head of the sixth department, finally couldn't help but ask Jiuhou directly.

At this time, he didn't understand why the Nine Marquis didn't take action, although the Nine Families were powerful and were one of the representatives of the many nobles in Chaoge City.

It stands to reason that if so many princes don't do anything, there should be one of their families.

But the actual situation is not the case, the nine marquis served as the doctor of the criminal department, the high-level of the big business, who knows if the king wants him to continue to serve, and does not divide them as princes.

Moreover, even if the princes are divided, the pursuits of the nine families are different, and the positions of the princes are divided into high and low, can the Marquis of Sifang and the Marquis of Bazhou be compared with other ordinary marquis?

Hearing Jiuli's words, Jiuhou's calm gaze was not shocked, and he looked at him and said indifferently: "You want to become a prince so much?"

Jiuli was stunned, a little stunned: "Father, this—isn't this your idea?"

Jiuhou lightly looked away, flashed a trace of hesitation, and said quietly: "I used to think like this for my father, and now that my nine families are in the situation, becoming a prince is the best way out." ”

Once, Jiuli swallowed the words he wanted to ask, and looked at Jiuhou tightly.

"But now that the king is majestic and strategic, he has been following the king closely, maybe it is the best way out for my nine families!" Jiuhou's eyes narrowed slightly, and his voice was a little erratic.

Obviously, he can't be sure.

"Father, what about us?" Jiu Li frowned a little, not knowing what Jiuhou was thinking, and asked tentatively.

"No hurry, wait and see. Jiuhou's tone was certain and cautious.

"But there are only three positions in the Marquis of Bazhou, if they are snatched away by others!" Jiuli said with some worry.

"Is it so easy for you to divide the princes?" Jiuhou frowned, and looked at Jiuli with some displeasure, he was so big, he was still so frizzy and couldn't sink down.

"There are more than 200 princes, and I don't know when it will be completed.

The stakes are so great that even the king can't take them lightly.

And ......" As he spoke, Jiuhou paused, looking thoughtfully in the direction of the Human Palace.

Jiuli shrank his neck, and he didn't dare to ask, so he nodded silently.

......

Time passed, and the big nobles and big families such as Efu, Meifu, Lufu, and Yuan Mansion could still endure it for the time being, and did not contribute too much.

Most of the rest of the nobles who had a heart had already come to visit You Hun, Fei Zhong, and Fei Lian.

Of course, other high-ranking officials' mansions, such as Shangrong, Bigan, and Jizi, also went to visit.

At the court meeting on October 1 of the 18th year of Emperor Xin, Emperor Xin divided 22 new princes at once.

Among them, five were ministers and nobles of the Chinese official system of Chaogecheng, and seven were officials in Yuzhou outside of Chaoge.

The other ten are generals from the military system.

These are all aristocrats who are intertwined in the big business, deeply rooted in the big business, and have complex relationships in all aspects.

Among them, there are eighteen people in the family who have quasi-saints, or who are quasi-saints themselves.

These twenty-two new princes suddenly made most of the nobles in Yuzhou red-eyed.

There are more than several times more than all kinds of means, and they have made every effort to compete for the position of princes, and the atmosphere has reached a peak.

Subsequently, the speed at which Emperor Xin divided the new princes became faster and faster.

By March of the 19th year of Emperor Xin, a total of forty-six people had been divided.

On March 6, another order to divide the princes shook the castle.

One of the eight marshals of the Great Shang, Fengyin was named Fenghou and was sealed on the same day.

As soon as this order was given, all the officials were shocked in their hearts.

The six doctors and eight marshals of the Great Shang Dynasty were the highest-level officials of the Great Shang Imperial Court.

Feng Yin was also the first to be made a prince.

The influence is self-evident.

Not to mention anything else, with Feng Yin being made a prince, eight more generals in his own army were made princes.

There is no way, as soon as Feng Yin becomes a prince, this army that has been branded by him will be almost abolished.

It is impossible for the imperial court to give him a fief and let him take it to the fief, and most of the soldiers will not follow him, after all, they also have families.

In this way, only the highest-level generals who are willing to be divided together, and the rest are broken up and joined by other generals.
