Li Shimin listened to Xue Yuanchao's words, and wanted to make an order on the spot and agree to Xue Yuanchao's request.

However, he still held back, just because the eldest grandson Wuji had just married the Fan Yang Lu clan, if he supported the strict criticism of the Fan Yang Lu clan, it would be easy to cause disputes within the imperial court.

Seeing that Li Shimin didn't speak, the eldest grandson Wuji laughed secretly in his heart, but he didn't make a sound.

Just because he doesn't speak doesn't mean no one speaks.

I saw Cui Dunli, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, walking out, although Cui Dunli moved to Xianyang from his grandfather's generation, but Cui Yi, the former Yan Boling impeached by Xue Yuanchao, was their ancestor three hundred years ago.

So Cui Dunli can't help but stand up and speak.

"Your Majesty, the marriage rites of the scholars are different, and they have been the same since ancient times, so the scholars rarely intermarry with ordinary people, in order to do their own rites and not mix them up.

For example, Shen Yue, the young master of the Liang prince of the Southern Dynasty, once participated in the Wang Yuan of the East China Sea Wang family, married his daughter and the Fuyang Manchu family, and said: Although the source is mediocre, he is really involved in China...... The high gate was demoted, although he did it himself, he despised his ancestors and humiliated his relatives, so it was even worse.

It is said that the Shishu family does not intermarry.

Although the families in Hebei Province have been heirlooms for a long time, their descendants are not good, but they all know to abide by poetry and etiquette and not dishonor their ancestors.

Shishu special gifts, how can you say that it corrupts the atmosphere?"

Cui Dunli's words were very restrained, and they did not involve anything else at all. It's just to make it clear that our scholars and the Shu people don't intermarry at all, and what we do will not affect the Shu people.

also quoted the words of Shen Yue of the Liang Dynasty to impeach Wang Yuan of the East China Sea, saying that although Wang Yuan had a bad character, he was noble, and marrying the Fuyang Man clan was an insult to his ancestors.

In order not to insult our ancestors, we don't marry people at all. We and the people of the Shu nationality are not married, and the etiquette is not the same, how can we bring a bad atmosphere?

However, these words inevitably reminded some people of some unpleasant experiences, such as those who had unsuccessfully courted Gaomen, and felt like they had been insulted after listening to Cui Dunli's confession.

Of course, Cui Dunli couldn't think of these things at this time, because Cheng Mingzhen, the head of the household, came out.

I saw Cheng Mingzhen walk to the middle of the hall, salute solemnly, and then said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, what Cui Shilang said is bad, as the so-called upper is good, and the lower will be very bad." The prestige of the scholars in Hebei Province is very high, and their behavior is mostly imitated by the people. It is an indisputable fact that it causes the marriage and luxury of the upper and lower parts of Hebei Province, and it is impossible to refute it.

What's more, this time Hebei Province was suddenly hit by a drought, and hundreds of thousands of people had no particles, all thanks to the relief of the imperial court.

If it weren't for the fact that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had forcibly pushed Guanzhong Guangfan to cultivate grain in the past two years, and His Royal Highness King Wu had gone to the desperate region to collect tribute, the imperial treasury would have been slightly rich, and he would have been able to help the people at this time.

The provinces of Hebei are probably full of smoke, and the old things of the late Sui Dynasty will be repeated.

What is the reason why the people have no savings?

One is that the people of Hebei Province are extremely poor and luxurious, knocking out the bones and sucking the marrow of the people, and the people of the other are also following their luxury, not saving family property, not cultivating fields, so that the time is slightly worse, that is, they become hungry people.

It can be seen that the extravagant marriage of the scholars in Hebei Province has been the source of the disaster that endangers the society of the world.

The Son of Heaven must not be guarded against! ”

As soon as these words came out, the Manchu Dynasty was in an uproar, and both Li Shimin and the civil and military officials knew that if there were really hundreds of thousands of people who had no food to eat, the world would definitely be in chaos.

Even the eldest grandson Wuji couldn't hold back, and came out to salute Li Shimin and said: "Your Majesty, the marriage of the scholars of Hebei Province is extravagant, but after all, it is a private matter, and the court is not easy to ask.

Of course, what Cheng Shangshu said must be guarded against, and the minister thought that it was right to follow the policy of the customs in Hebei Province, and set a reasonable number of tenant rents by Youzhou Daxingtai, so as not to make the people be excessively exploited by the scholars. ”

This is the way that the eldest grandson Wuji has thought of a long time ago: throw the pot to Youzhou Daxingtai.

Some people in the palace immediately understood the wisdom of the eldest grandson Wuji, and the unanimous opinion of the Manchu Dynasty was that Li Chengqian had no way to be in the Nashi clan in Youzhou, so he ordered the princelings in Chang'an City to launch an impeachment.

Now the eldest grandson Wuji kicks the ball to Youzhou Daxingtai again, and asks Li Chengqian to do something more difficult to reduce the tenant rent, isn't it embarrassing?

Sure enough, as soon as the eldest grandson Wuji finished speaking, he saw Liu Zheng walking out with a calm face.

"Uncle Eldest Sun Guo's words are wrong, and the court should take care of things that can affect the people of the society. Cui Shilang just said that Shen Yue of the Southern Dynasty had played the East China Sea Wang Yuan, which shows that the marriage of the scholar clan has always been related to the world, how can the imperial court ignore it?"

Cui Dunli listened to Liu Zheng attack the shield of his son with the spear of his son, and gritted his teeth angrily, but he didn't speak again.

Because he knows that no matter what the debate in the court is today, it will not change the fate of the scholars in Hebei Province, after all, Li Chengqian is now in Youzhou, and with the national strength of the Tang Dynasty, there are ways to deal with those scholars.

Liu Zheng's ultimate goal should be the eldest grandson Wuji, which has nothing to do with him.

Sure enough, I only heard the eldest grandson Wuji look at Liu Zheng and said with a faint smile: "Liu Shilang's words are not right, the thousand-character text says, 'Happiness is noble and low, and etiquette is not humble', and it takes more money to intermarry between the scholars to distinguish the difference between the scholars, just like a royal wedding, which time does not spend more money than ordinary people?" Did it also bring about the atmosphere of Datang?"

As soon as the eldest grandson Wuji said this, even Li Shimin's face changed.

In feudal society, these problems cannot be theorized at all, because feudal etiquette is something that stipulates what class of people should bear what responsibilities and what kind of treatment they should enjoy.

There is a difference between the scholars in the feudal society, and it is your fault that you ordinary people forcibly make the scholars extravagant and wasteful. If you don't learn from the emperor, write an edict to give anyone to death, and then you take someone to kill people, and say to the government that this is to learn from the emperor, then your crime is definitely heavier than the crime of ordinary murder.

If Li Chengqian is here, he will definitely say that the scholars of Hebei Province are just self-conscious, and they have no credit in the Tang Dynasty, and they are the same as ordinary people.

However, at this time, no one in the Taiji Hall would think like this.

Liu Zheng and the princelings are in an extremely disadvantageous situation, and if they continue to argue, they will involve imperial power, and Li Shimin will not let them go now.

If there is no argument, it is equivalent to setting the name of the Hebei Provincial Scholars through a great court meeting, which will directly increase the resistance to Li Chengqian's later administration in Hebei Province.

"Your Majesty......" Liu Zheng opened his mouth, but he couldn't say it.

Li Shimin's face was gloomy, and he also saw Liu Zheng's predicament, but he had to maintain the imperial power even more. Li Shimin now only thinks that Li Chengqian is messing around, Liu Zheng and others are useless, and they have not come up with a way to deal with the Hebei Taoist clan.

"Humph!"

Li Shimin waited for a while to see that no one in the court came forward again, and knowing that Li Chengqian's people had no way to deal with it, he had to sum up their arguments.

At this time, the eldest grandson Wuji had an indifferent look on his face, looking unfathomable and profound, but Liu Zheng and the others' hearts were all in their throats, but they couldn't do anything.

"Newspaper—"

"Youzhou Daxingtai sent 800 miles to expedite the recital."
