Chapter 772: Rebellion
Seeing that the people from the Tang Dynasty were so domineering, the children of the Cui clan of Goguryeo were furious, how to say that we are also one of the top nobles in Goguryeo, Goguryeo and the Tang Dynasty are equal, even if you come to surrender, there is no reason to be superior.
Holding down the anger of the juniors behind him, Brother Cui Tai is obviously more aware of current affairs and knows more about the survival of nobles.
After pondering for a moment, Brother Cui Tai said: "My ancestor of the Cui family also held the royal power of Goguryeo, and now the old man is in the position of the eldest brother, and he can compare to you as the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty."
But we have nothing to say about the success of the king or the defeat of the Kou, our Cui family does not seek the high-ranking officials of the Tang Dynasty, does not seek the prince, as long as we get the position of an earl, it is not despised by others. ”
This is very pertinent, the prime minister of a country is sincere to the Tang Dynasty, it stands to reason that this is a talented person, if His Majesty the Tang Dynasty cherishes talents, he will reuse his talents, but the Tang Dynasty, and even the previous Central Plains Dynasty are the same, it is difficult to seal the marquis, it is even more difficult to seal the duke, and the king must not be crowned by the royal family.
This is a rule that has been passed down since the time of the Han Dynasty, thinking that during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Li Guang, the flying general, was not allowed to be a marquis for life, and he was given a marquis after his death.
For example, Yu Shinan, an old minister of the Tang Dynasty, is one of the eighteen scholars of the Qin Palace, one of the twenty-four people of the future Lingyan Pavilion, and the current title is only a viscount of Yongxing County.
At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, there were a bunch of princes and marquises, and a large part of them were made by Li Yuan who wanted to win over the courtiers, after all, the country has not yet been completely unified.
Therefore, Brother Cui's request can be said to be not excessive in the slightest.
However, after listening to this, the people from the Tang Dynasty laughed again, and there was even obvious contempt in their eyes.
"According to the established plan of the Tang Dynasty, as the nobles of the defeated country, they are equivalent to captives, even if there is a policy of the Tang Dynasty to win over the people, you will invest in the Tang Dynasty, that is, a rich family that is slightly stronger than the people, if you want to be a nobleman, hehe, it is basically impossible."
"You, if that being the case, why did you come to humiliate us?" A young man complained.
The man continued: "What I said is the result of your own defection to the Tang army.
But now that I'm here, it's different. ”
"Can you still control the military headquarters of Datang?"
"No, the conferral of knighthood is not under the jurisdiction of the Tang Military Department, let me introduce myself, I am Cui Dunyi of the Boling Cui Clan, and my brother Cui Dunli is the squire of the Tang Military Department.
The patriarch of my Bolingcui clan sent me here because of the Goguryeo Choi clan, but a branch of my Bolingcui clan went to the peninsula to pass on the lineage.
Thinking that we are of the same bloodline, I can't bear you to suffer from the sword and war, so let me convince you to surrender to Tang with me. ”
It turned out that this person was a member of the Boling Choi clan, and the Boling Choi clan and the Goguryeo Choi clan still had such a relationship.
"My Goguryeo Choi clan is from the Goguryeo Choi clan royal family, and it has nothing to do with you." One retorted.
"Hehe, then where did the Goguryeo royal family come from? Presumably, no one here has forgotten their ancestors. Cui Dunyi sneered.
Brother Cui Tai waved his hand and said: "According to genealogical records, the ancestors did migrate from the Central Plains to the peninsula during the troubled times in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. ”
"So what? Don't you still want to recruit us? Even if you are from the Boling Cui clan, I heard that now in Datang, your so-called five surnames and seven families are not so easy to speak, can you still screw the Datang military? An old man said, apparently a well-informed man.
"Hmph, my Boling Cui clan now has countless officials in the court, what about the Tang military?
If you vote for the Tang military, you will be a flat-headed common man, and do you think they will let you, the leaders of Goguryeo, stand in front of others and still be in power? Will you continue to enjoy wealth? When pigs fly.
However, if our Boling Cui clan comes forward, you will wait for my branch of the Boling Cui clan, the patriarch said, he will personally go to the court to say Xiang, as long as you recognize your ancestors and return to your ancestors, enjoy the treatment and title, you will naturally follow our Cui clan to rise together.
Looking at the entire Goguryeo, I am afraid that the only thing that can make the Tang Dynasty treat differently is the Goguryeo royal family, the Gao family.
If you recognize your ancestors and return to your ancestors, it is not impossible to say that you have an earl, even a marquis. ”
Cui Dunyi's words directly made the hearts of many young people thump, and now Goguryeo is indeed fragmented, and many families are considering a way out, obviously, while there is still value, surrendering Datang is the way out, but what everyone is most worried about is surrendering Datang, and from then on it will be no different from the people, so they are still hesitating.
Well, now that there is a good way to keep the status of nobility, why not?
Glancing back at the children who were about to move behind him, Brother Cui Tai said: "The Boling Cui family has a great cause, and I don't think there is a lack of branch bloodlines of our foreign barbarian lands, I don't know what your purpose is for doing this?" ”
Cui Dunyi looked at the Goguryeo Choi clan patriarch and asked, "What do you think?" ”
"Is it our money?"
Brother Cui Tai can only think of money at this time, after all, he is a royal family of the Cui family before Goguryeo, and he has accumulated a lot over the past few hundred years, and what can be coveted by the Central Plains Wang clan may only be wealth.
"Hahahaha, refreshing!
What you said is right, when you recognize your ancestors and return to your ancestors, you must be bound by your own family.
Our condition is seventy percent of your family wealth, in addition, the Goguryeo Cui clan can inherit and prosper, there must be many outstanding children, after arriving in the Tang Dynasty, we Boling Cui clan children are trained together, and in the future, the cultivation of talents should be consistent with the outside world, after all, the enemies of our family nobles are very strong, and we need talents to compete with them. ”
"You mean, Datang Lantian Hou Baifan?"
"Not bad."
"No, by no means, how can our ancestors' inheritance be handed over? They are going to leave seventy percent at once, how can our children live? "A lot of people are talking.
Cui Dunyi said disdainfully: "Do you have a lot of seventy percent of your foundation?" Do you think your money is scarce?
If it doesn't work, forget it, you can go and vote for that Li Jing and see if you will be relegated to the common people by searching all your family wealth? ”
One sentence made everyone silent, the Tang army would be kind to the people, but not necessarily to the Goguryeo officials.
Brother Cui Tai said: "Okay, since there is no objection, then it is decided, money is just something outside the body, first pass this robbery to save your life, go to Datang to learn more, and then earn a family business in the future." ”
These words made Cui Dunyi can't help but glance at him, it seems that this person can be the prime minister of Goguryeo, not a simple character.
With the documents of the Goguryeo Cui clan to recognize their ancestors and return to the Tang Dynasty, Cui Dunyi sneaked out of Pyongyang City stealthily and went straight to the camp of Li Jing in Liaodong, because if you want to win a good position for the Goguryeo Cui clan, you need a great merit.
