Second uncle, it's not that serious, is it? Although the imperial court is in some difficulties now, with a large number of materials sent by Li Xun from the Western Regions, the difficulties have been overcome, the situation has improved in an all-round way, and the imperial court has more than 500,000 troops in its hands, and the strength is strong. ”

You Mingyuan disagrees with this, in his opinion, the imperial court has achieved brilliant victories after several major wars, and the military strength is strong, and now Li Xun has won the entire Western Regions, plus the materials in the south of the Yangtze River, for a long time in the future, the finances of the imperial court will be quite rich, such a good basic environment, how can the world be chaotic? The Jin Dynasty will only get stronger and stronger.

"The few dynasties before the Jin Dynasty, which one was not a great martial artist? In the end, it is not the end of the world, and anything powerful is never destroyed by the outside. ”

"What do you mean by saying that we have internal problems?"

You Yuanfeng shook his head, he didn't want to say anything more on this issue, some things are not the time to say it now, since Yang Daosi died unexpectedly and Liu Yu Zhishi, You Yuanfeng has already noticed a little bit of something strange inside and outside the court, what is it? People's hearts, people's hearts have changed, when did they start to change, why did they change, You Yuanfeng also doesn't understand, he is eighty-five years old this year, and he has been away from the government for almost 20 years.

You Mingyuan saw that the second uncle didn't want to say more, so he didn't ask more, changed the topic and said: "Second uncle, I understand what you mean, it's just like this.... To Min'er...."

For You Min, because of her mother, You Mingyuan has always felt guilty, so before his daughter got married, You Mingyuan always loved her as much as possible, but this kind of fatherly love was strongly jealous and resentful by his wife Wang, which made You Min and Wang incompatible in the end, You Mingyuan was caught in the middle, and he also had a headache, so in the last few years before You Min married Li Xun, You Mingyuan could only alienate You Min for the sake of internal stability of the family and appease Wang's emotions, and You Min as a daughter, But there have been no complaints, consistently, which makes You Mingyuan feel even more uncomfortable.

Now, according to You Yuanfeng's meaning, before the overall situation is decided, no matter whether Li Xun is dead or alive, it has nothing to do with the You family, once Zhao Xun loses in this battle, Li Xun will definitely be strongly impacted, You Min, as his wife, his fate may also be quite miserable, and in this process, as You Min's maiden family, will not give any support, as far as reason is concerned, You Mingyuan knows that You Yuanfeng's decision is the most beneficial to the entire family, but out of personal feelings, You Mingyuan felt very painful, he felt that this was a kind of deception and betrayal.

You Yuanfeng glanced at You Mingyuan, then picked up the teacup and drank water, neither of them was talking, they were silent for a while, and after drinking the tea in the cup, You Yuanfeng put down the teacup, then looked at You Mingyuan, and said lightly: "Mingyuan, I know your feelings, but sometimes, we have to do this, everything is for the family, you are the patriarch of the You family, you know this better than the old man." ”

You Mingyuan nodded and said silently: "Second uncle, don't worry, I won't be emotional." ”

After that, You Mingyuan said again: "Second uncle, in fact, judging from the current situation, the crown prince Zhao Xun has the strong support of the emperor, and the possibility of his succession is almost a foregone conclusion, we don't need to be so cautious, if we can choose to stand on their side at this time, after Zhao Xun succeeds to the throne, our You clan will definitely be able to get more benefits." ”

"Interests, what interests, their identities may be different, but the goals are the same!"

You Yuanfeng sneered: "What is the biggest threat to imperial power? Isn't it our so-called family gate valve? Since the founding of the Jin Dynasty, how many collisions have we had, and how much blood has been shed, with the family gate valve as the force on one side, deposed more than one or two emperors, set aside the imperial power, control the world, and with the imperial power as the other side of the force, how many family gate valves have been destroyed? Although we coexist, we also have irreconcilable contradictions, and when this contradiction accumulates to the limit, it is your death and my death! ”

You Mingyuan sat down, took a sip of his teacup, and pondered on this question.

The politics and system of the Jin Dynasty basically followed the previous dynasty, when the Chu Dynasty, the situation in the world was controlled by a total of three forces, imperial power, relatives and families, this is a political system that has lasted for hundreds of years, the beginning of this system, it is indeed greatly stabilized the Chu Dynasty, the supremacy of imperial power, relatives and families contain each other, and the three parties can be balanced, but with the development of the current situation, as well as the strength of the emperor, when a new emperor succeeds to the throne at an early age, or there is a faint monarch, can not hold the imperial power normally, at this time, The two forces of relatives and the family will begin to collide fiercely, the reason is very simple, the throne of power can only be held by one party, who pinched it in the hand, who will have the supreme right to command the world, once this situation occurs, whether it is a relative or a family, once one of them grasps the power, it will try its best to suppress the other party, and try to empty the emperor, the tripartite balance is broken, and the consequences are the political struggle of life and death.

Chu Dynasty from the middle of the year, the emperor succeeded to the throne at an early age, the supreme power fell, and the political struggle in the court was fierce, so it caused turmoil in the world, and in the Chu Xuanzong Dynasty, after Chu Xuanzong became an adult, in order to regain power, he began to deliberately cultivate the fourth force from outside the relatives and the family, that is, the eunuch group represented by the eunuchs.

Chu Xuanzong with the help of the eunuch power group, and finally succeeded in seizing power, but it also left a bad result, because for relatives and families, the relationship between eunuchs and the emperor is closer, and even get along day and night, they can control the emperor more easily, since Chu Xuanzong, the eunuch power group has grown step by step, and in the end, it has reached the extent that the emperor can be arbitrarily abolished.

Therefore, in the middle and late Chu Dynasty, the military strength of the Chu Dynasty was still strong, but the internal struggle had reached an extremely cruel point.

The fierce struggle of the three forces finally destroyed the ruling foundation of the Chu Dynasty from the inside, which was the fundamental reason for the demise of the Chu Dynasty.

After the establishment of the Jin Dynasty, the political system of the Chu Dynasty was basically continued, but it also learned from the previous car, at the beginning of the founding of the country, it was an iron monument, the first article is that the harem and eunuchs are not allowed to participate in politics, if there is a violation, the people of the world can be punished.
