Chapter 131: Roundabout

"Xiaguan stepped forward to the north, entrusted by the Zheng family of Xingyang, and asked His Highness a question: If the Zheng family of Xingyang accepts His Highness's conditions, can the children of the Zheng family participate in the scientific examination? Can you go north and settle down? ”

After talking about Yang Qi's state affairs, Pei Shiqing suddenly hugged his fists with an expectant face.

"Haha!" Hearing this, Yang Tong laughed wildly, and said extremely teasingly: "Didn't they say that I, Yang Tong, am domineering and violent, cruel and vicious, and arrogant. Now I'm thinking about compromising with me. ”

Pei Shiqing's face was flushed, he was speechless, and said in his heart, the general trend is the same, and it is not okay to do without compromise!

Yang Tong saw that Pei Shiqing was silent, and smiled, but his heart was bright.

In the seventh year of the Great Cause, Wang Bo raised troops in Qi County, Liu Badao, Sun Anzu, Gao Shida, Zhang Jincheng, and Dou Jiande raised troops in Jizhou, and in the same year, Zhai Rang raised troops in Dong County, Wang Dangren, Wang Bodang, Li Gongyi, Zhou Wenju and unknown rebels are innumerable.

Since then, the world has been in turmoil, the people have not chatted, and in the troubled times, the family lords of the five surnames and seven sects have been devastated and have fled in all directions, even if they are not exterminated, they have suffered heavy losses.

Today, Qingzhou, which has lost order, has become a battlefield for Wang Bo, Xu Yuanlang, and Dou Jiande; The Central Plains has become a place for Li Mi and Nan Sui to compete, and Wang Shichong, who controls the military power of Luoyang, once gained power, then, Yang Qi, who already had a grudge against Wang Shichong, would never end well with the family.

Where can they stand?

Gangnam?

That is where Yu Wenhua, Du Fuwei, Li Zitong, and Shen Faxing compete, and it is very chaotic, and the traditional sphere of influence of the Jiangnan Shi clan such as Wang Xie Lugu will not do anything if they go.

Jingzhou?

It is the gladiatorial arena of Xiao Milling and Lin Shihong and others.

Guanzhong?

Although there is the danger of the four stops, it doesn't seem to be safe, there are Liang Shidu, Guo Zihe in the north, Xue Ju and Li Rail in the west, Zhu Cang in the south, Yang Tong in the east, and the others are all small forces, I am afraid of Yang Dong, because the Taiyuan Wang family supported Li Yuan, the old were destroyed by him, and the young were exiled to the border counties, whether they can survive or not, only God knows. If he goes to defect to Li Yuan, if Li Yuan loses again, the result is estimated to be the fate of the Taiyuan Wang family.

The important thing is that the Guanlong magnates are extremely unfriendly to the Kanto region, because the Guandong clan was once Yang Guang's lackey to deal with the Guanlong magnates, and when they reach the enemy's land, can everyone have a good life?

Thinking about it, it is still the safest Northern Sui that unifies Jizhou, Youzhou, and Merge Prefecture, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, they will fight for it, even if the harsh conditions will agree, at this time, it is important to live.

As for power, are you afraid that there is none?

As long as he, Yang Tong, agrees to the children of the scholar clan to participate in the scientific expedition in a private name, and with the learning conditions of the children who have no worries about food and clothing, is it not comparable to the Han Shi who cultivates while studying?

Why didn't Yang Jian and Yang Guang's imperial examinations succeed?

The root lies in education! The advantages of education are concentrated in the hands of the family gate valve who has no worries about food and clothing, and Han Shi will have a chance unless he is particularly good, but this is only a small number, if Yang Tong releases the access control now, Han Shi from the poor people has no advantage at all. If you treat the scholars equally, the result is still the world of the gate lord clan.

In the two dynasties of Wude Zhenguan in history, why is the imperial examination dispensable? It's just that I'm afraid that like the Sui Dynasty, it's thankless, and it will make the imperial examination a ladder for the children of the family.

If Yang Tong agrees to the request of the so-called 'Xingyang Zheng Clan', then these Kwantung clans will flock in, and when they have the opportunity to join the ranks, they will be connected and formed into a network.

Two generations, no, just one generation, the resurgence of the scholars.

Obviously!

It was Pei Shiqing who saw that he was trading with them, and mistakenly thought that the ban had been relaxed, so he used the excuse of 'Xingyang Zheng Clan' to explore the bottom. But Yang Tong, who took the initiative, also felt that this was an opportunity to explore the bottom.

"What good can 'Zheng' give me?"

"The strength of the clan supports His Highness to rule the world." Pei Shiqing said word by word, as Yang Tong expected, this was indeed his sudden thought, and he didn't think that he could hide it from Yang Dong, but through the Xingyang Zheng family, even if the cooperation failed, he would not tear his face. But he felt that it was not enough, and said meaningfully: "I heard that His Royal Highness is diligent in government, and Jizhou, Youzhou, and Bingzhou have the prosperity they have today, but the state affairs must be virtuous, and the heirs are also very important." ”

Yang Tong smiled: "According to Mr. ......'s opinion"

"The lower officials don't dare to be the master for His Highness, but I think His Highness should hurry up and find a few more gentle and virtuous women, His Highness doesn't have a son and a half daughter, and it is estimated that the courtiers under His Highness should also be anxious! If you don't give birth to a few more princes while you are young, who will you give these thousands of miles of land to in the future? Pei Shiqing said with a smile: "Your Highness, the woman cultivated by the Zheng family in Xingyang is very good. ”

Marriage has always been a means for the clan lords to consolidate their own status, especially the seven clans that stand at the top of the seven clans, which are known as the five surnames and seven sects.

As soon as the five women were born, they lost their freedom: they received the best scholarly education and the best etiquette when they were children, and at the same time they had to accept all kinds of brainwashing that always put the interests of the family first. Therefore, most of the women with the five surnames are knowledgeable, luxurious, generous, gentle and elegant, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry and songs, embroidery female red, cooking and medical skills, all of which can be described perfectly, which can be called a model among women.

But their value is only three, the first is to intermarry with other scholars to ensure the purity of the bloodline, and also to intertwine the interests of the scholars, forming a dependence of the same qi and branches, and the lips and teeth are cold. Secondly, he was allowed to give the geniuses, demon talents, and ghost talents in the middle of the foreign surname and the poor family, so as to take them for his own use and firmly tie them to his own chariot.

It is precisely because the five surnamed women have an established place to go, and only a very small number of them are left behind, because since the two Jin Dynasty, people all over the world are proud of marrying a woman with five surnames, and are proud of having a lady with an almost perfect character, and use this to show their identity, status, strength, and influence!

In the Zhenguan Dynasty, the Qinghe Cui clan, which ranked first among the scholars, still disdained to marry the Li royal family, which shows how rampant they were. With the royal family as a negative teaching material, the status of the scholars and the women with the five surnames certainly soared, so that Xue Yuanchao, the prime minister of the Li Zhi period, enjoyed all the glory and wealth in his life, but regretted that he could not marry the women with the five surnames for the rest of his life.

Although it is not so arrogant and crazy now, but under the advertising effect of the public's touting, the scarcity of things, and the propaganda of the scholars, the five surnamed women are still the supreme brand among women.

"Five women?" Yang Tong smiled!

Pei Shiqing stroked his beard and smiled, "That's right! Daughter-in-law. ”

Yang Tong nodded and said, "It's indeed a good thing." ”

Pei Shiqing's smile froze, and he fell into the entanglement between something and something that wasn't.

"No blessings!" Yang Tong said indifferently: "First of all, this king hates and hates the kind of scheming woman who does not hesitate to dig up the foundation of her husband's family to fill her mother's family; Secondly, the 'Zheng family' can't open the door to the core of power in this king, so I hit the idea on my future son, first work together to kill the other sons, and then push the son of the girl with the fifth surname to the position of the prince of Qin, and then kill me, who is the old man, and finally, let that son give the 'Zheng family' a great power! The route that the 'Zheng family' wants to take is the same as your Pei family's promise of your sister-in-law to Brother Yan Wang, in fact, you have done this since ancient times, it is very old-fashioned, and there is nothing new about it. ”

Yang Tong smiled: "The Taiyuan Wang clan is finished, and your Pei clan is also half dead!" How strong can the Zheng family be? When it comes to playing yin, I, Yang Tong, am no worse than you old foxes, the most important thing is that I have 200,000 male soldiers and tens of millions of people as weapons, as long as I use the excuse of entering the Central Plains, even if Brother Yan Wang can't do it, Wang Shichong can let the Zheng family go extinct! So, conspiracy, in the face of absolute strength, is not a fart. ”

Pei Shiqing smiled bitterly in his heart, I really don't know how a young man can think like a fifty or sixty-year-old man, and see everything through...... Qiang smiled: "Even if His Highness forbids it, the children of the scholar clan can also participate in the scientific expedition in the name of Hanshi." ”

"Not long ago, there were indeed many people who pretended to be Han Shi to participate in the scientific examination and participated in the selection of 'three halls and one pavilion' five grade bachelors, and the result! You know what? Yang Tong said with a smile: "I arranged a very good position for them - to mine in Xiangping County for 50 years, and some people have become my eyes to distinguish the real from the fake, verify one person, and reduce the sentence for half a year." ”

"Knowing that this king is short of people, he actually sent me nearly a thousand miners, and I am really grateful to the 'Zheng family'!"

Yang Tong Senran smiled, the household registration can be faked, but it is not difficult to distinguish the true from the fake, the color of the hands and face, the cocoon, the walking posture, and the bearing are all the differences between the children of the scholar clan and the Han scholars, you can tell the difference with a little attention!

If they come to smash the field openly, Yang Tong can laugh at it, but the bad attempt to infiltrate the officials' army is unforgivable.

Hearing these words, Pei Shiqing's heart was shocked, are there Pei's children here? Of course! We must go back as soon as possible and discuss with you how to remedy the situation.
