Chapter 53: The Contradiction between the Privileged Scholars and the Hanmen Shu Clan
Shi clan: also known as the family, the clothes, the family, the powerful family, the family, the giant room, the door valve, etc., collectively refer to the famous family that has been an official for generations, and enjoys privileges in politics, economy, culture, social life, etc.
The Shu people, also known as the "Han Gate" and "Han Clan", do not belong to the family of the Shi family, most of them are ordinary small and medium-sized landlords, who have practiced martial arts and studied heirlooms for generations.
Since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Confucianism was advocated, and most of the bureaucrats started with scriptures, and gradually formed the situation of successive ministers in the Eastern Han Dynasty.
Emperor Wen of Wei Cao Pi implemented the nine-product Zhongzheng system, so that the landlords of the clan could participate in the political power by virtue of their family background, so that the scholar system was truly formed, and at the same time, the scholar clan and the Hanmen began to slowly oppose each other.
With the establishment of the Western Jin Dynasty, in order to gain the support of the big landlords of the family, the Sima clan continued to implement a policy of indulgence and entrapment towards them, thus forming a typical scholar system;
They controlled the central and local governments politically, annexed land economically, ran estates, and hid large populations.
In the process, the nobles had long enjoyed political privileges, lived a luxurious and corrupt life, and slowly lost their true talents;
In order to continue to control the privileges, the people of the Shi clan deliberately suppressed the development of the Shu tribe and did not let the talented people among the children of the Han family have a bright day, which caused the increasing dissatisfaction of the Shu people, and the two were really opposed, and they did not intermarry with each other, and they did not like each other.
Liangzhou has always been far away from the capital and is a frontier land, and the contradictions between the Keshi and Shu tribes exist the same and are the same acute.
A certain gorgeous manor in Jiuquan County is holding an aristocratic banquet as usual, and some famous local clans in the county have people coming to the banquet.
Except for the owner of the manor, most of the guests are a few people with similar interests, enjoying singing, dancing, drinking wine, and whispering interesting stories.
In such public occasions, most of the things that are talked about are some things that are stormy, and no one is uninteresting and deliberately discusses some sensitive political affairs.
As the owner of the manor, the old patriarch Zhang, gently slapped his palms a few times, the violinist and the dancers retreated in turn very respectfully.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we have recently come to Jiuquan County with a famous cross-river dragon, and it seems that he is about to settle down here, have you heard?" Patriarch Zhang sat in the chairman's seat and asked softly.
The guests in the hall whispered and discussed, guessing which one of the Guojiang Dragons in Patriarch Zhang's words was and what the meaning was.
After a while, a short and fat middle-aged man responded with smiling eyes: "Lord Zhang Shilang, what did your old man say about Jianglong, but what about the head of Ningzhen Huning, one of the "Three Heroes of Lions, Tigers and Leopards" in Liangzhou? β
The owner of the manor, Patriarch Zhang, used to be a free rider in his early years, so everyone often called him Zhang Shilang as a sign of respect.
Li Yuanwai is worthy of being known as the "fat fox" of know-it-all, it is the head of the Ningzhen Huning dart from Dunhuang County, a very powerful dragon crossing the river, and the person who comes is not good! Patriarch Zhang stroked his white beard, and his words contained a hint of evil spirit.
"Lord Zhang Shilang, your old man's words seem to be a bit serious, fat fox, I have dealt with Mr. Ning Dart many times, Mr. Ning Dart is very good at behaving and acting, and we are also good friends!"
"If he offends your old man, after I go back, I will immediately ask him to come to your old man's house to make amends!"
Li Yuanwai, who is known as the "fat fox" who knows everything, did not get much news from Ning Zhenhu, so he explained to Ning Zhenhu a little.
"Outside Li Yuan, Ning Zhenhu is not the old man alone, he is the entire scholar clan who offended, and it was all the guests here who were offended." Patriarch Zhang said in a loud voice.
Li Yuanwai, who is known as the "fat fox", suddenly changed color, paused for a moment, and asked hesitantly: "Lord Zhang Shilang, how do you say thisγγγγγγ say?" β
"Ning Zhenhu is a dart game, he eats hundreds of meals in the rivers and lakes, and a martial artist, which is not in line with the people of our clan! He came from Dunhuang County to take root in our Jiuquan County, and he didn't have a lot to do with everyone, but he crossed the line, wanted to eat from us, and wanted to take away what originally belonged to us! Patriarch Zhang coughed twice, drank some tea to moisten his throat, and continued: "Ning Zhenhu set up his own portal near Yangguan to create a dart game, and it seems that he is still wandering around the rivers and lakes like his old man to make a living. However, recently, he has been privately buying young laborers, and now it is estimated that there are so many two or three thousand, right? He seems to have done business with everyone's family, and you've all heard about it! β
"Lord Shilang, Ning Zhenhu bought these young laborers for mining outside the gate, and he doesn't seem to have crossed the line to dig food? How did he become the enemy of the entire clan? One of the guests in the hall immediately asked the question in his mind.
"He is talking about opening a mine, but he has already expanded the mansion near Yangguan by six or seven times, which is not much smaller than a manor of more than 100 acres!"
"Some time ago, he quietly submitted an application for more than 500 acres of land to the Yangguan County Ya, and the county lieutenant of Yangguan County has been replaced by the son of my Zhang family, and the official position of Yin was filled not long ago, so I only knew Ning Zhenhu's plan!"
"Ning Zhenhu's wolf ambition is obvious, do you need to say more about it from the old man?"
After the old patriarch Zhang said these words in one breath, he was a little tired, so he closed his eyes and squinted for a while.
Owning some heirlooms of ancestral fields and slaves is the main symbol of the Hanmen Shu clan.
All the people of the scholar clan present suspected that Ning Zhenhu wanted to transform his family into a Shu clan that had cultivated and studied and practiced martial arts for generations, so that future generations could have the opportunity to get ahead in the imperial court.
The people who can represent the family to attend this kind of banquet are all the elite of the family, and although their lives are very luxurious, their brains are not broken, and they naturally know very well what this is all about;
In their hearts, they were very disgusted and hated by Ning Zhenhu's behavior, and they didn't want Ning Zhenhu to successfully transform into a member of the Shu clan and compete with everyone's Shi clan for the privileges of the world of Liangzhou in the future.
The guests in the hall spoke out one after another, demanding that all the scholars in Jiuquan County work together to suppress Ning Zhenhu's development and let him return to his original ranks as a martial artist.
At this time, Mr. Ning, who was rushing to Phoenix Castle, did not know that he had inadvertently suffered an unwarranted disaster and offended all the scholars in Jiuquan County;
After he returns, he will face the strong banning and suppression of all the local clans in Jiuquan County!
This small matter laid the groundwork for the decline of the local clans in Jiuquan County, and also made the future Jiuquan County scholars regret it very much!

"What, an inconspicuous little stone castle has played tricks on the three of you and made you kill each other! Waste, waste, and waste! β
In a domed, tall palace in the Lingdu City of Xiaowan Kingdom, the voice of the king of Sai was very angry.
"Your Majesty, it's all the fault of your subordinates, please calm your anger, and your subordinates will be guilty!" The weary chief stood very respectfully at the foot of the throne, and confessed his sins very reverently.
"Waste, why did you delay coming back for nearly a month to report the news, this time it looks like it is going to snow in winter, it is difficult for the army to march, and I don't want to take revenge this year!" King Sai slowly sat down on his throne and asked indifferently.
"Back to Your Majesty, the next group of people deliberately took a detour to avoid the enemy's fierce pursuit!" The chief still kept his head down and explained very respectfully.
"In the spring of the next year, you will be allowed to make meritorious contributions, lead 3,000 cavalry, and crush those ants who dare to provoke our Xiaowan Kingdom for me! Be careful not to ruin my crossbow! β
At this time, His Majesty the King of Cyprus already regarded the crossbow of Phoenix Fort as his trophy!
"Yes, Your Majesty! His subordinates will definitely live up to the king's order and bring back all the crossbows and bows for His Majesty! The chief's face radiated a new glow of confidence.
"Once you lose the majesty of our kingdom again, you will die on the battlefield and never come back!"
After saying these extremely indifferent words, the king suddenly stood up from his throne, turned and left!
The chief showed that cloudy and uncertain expression, like a cold bluestone, standing in the hall for a long time without moving!
