Chapter 168: The Family Gate Valve
After the chamberlain's report, Liu Geng got the announcement, and after carefully entering the vertical arch hall, he didn't dare to look at Lu Chengqi, but just took a long look and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the article has been prepared for Your Majesty." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
After that, he handed a large piece of rice paper to Lu Chengqi. That's the way it was in those days, even if you wrote a little more, it would cost a lot of paper. After all, it is a brush word, and not everyone is used to writing fly-headed small letters.
Liu Geng, as a jinshi, is really beautiful with a brush. In these years, the writing is ugly, and it is almost impossible to win the jinshi. Whether it is the deputy examiner or the chief examiner, there is always a different perspective for a scholar who has a good hand. Many talented people will also be blocked from the door of the palace examination many times because the handwriting is really unsightly, leaving a residual hatred.
Seeing this good word, Lu Chengqi's mood was a little more relaxed, and he carefully read the article written by Liu Geng, and said lightly: "Yes, it is very well written." Liu Qing, what do you think about the Shizi making trouble? ”
Liu Geng has been in front of and behind Lu Chengqi for almost three years, and he has only recently figured out the character of the little emperor. Regarding the trouble of the scholars, Liu Geng had already smelled a trace of smell through Lu Chengqi's narration, and immediately said cautiously: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that there must be something strange about this matter!" ”
Lu Chengqi was stunned, Isn't this the most frequent word in the drama "Detective Di Renjie"? immediately laughed and scolded: "Okay, you Liu Geng, when did you speak so ambiguously?" Say it quickly, or I won't be able to spare you! ”
Liu Geng did not hide his nervousness, wiped a handful of sweat with his hands, and then said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this time things will not be as simple as they seem. Those newspapers are not really behind the scenes, they are just being used by others like those scholars. ”
Lu Chengqi nodded, and Liu Geng dared to continue: "The minister thinks that this matter may be related to the remnants of the previous dynasty...... After saying that, Liu Geng's eyes swept Lu Chengqi's expression. found that Lu Chengqi was not abnormal, so he dared to continue: "...... The remnants of the previous dynasty are like hundred-legged insects, dead but not stiff. After the founding of Taizu. No longer implements the nine-product Zhongzheng system, and many family valves hate the royal family. After Taizong ascended the throne, he killed a group of these families who did not know the height of the sky, and they gradually disappeared. But as I became more and more stable, they began to fan the flames. When the emperor was there. They also show signs of showing their feet. It's a pity that the emperor had a good temperament and didn't create murder. Your Majesty, the minister thinks that these people are the bane of turmoil, and it is advisable to eradicate them as soon as possible......"
When Lu Chengqi heard this, he was quite surprised: "There is still a family in this year? In fact, Lu Chengqi has not yet come into contact with this kind of character. In his previous life, he had a low status and couldn't touch the so-called family members at all. After his rebirth, he was busy with political affairs every day. There's no time for it. Out of his understanding of history, Lu Chengqi instinctively thought that the family gate valve or something had long been drowned in the historical trend of Honghong.
What he didn't think about was that even in the afterlife, the family would still exist. Such as the Zhang family taught by the Heavenly Master, and the Confucian family in Qufu, Shandong. These two families, one is a descendant of Confucius, the sage Confucius; One is a descendant of Zhang Daoling, who founded the Wudou Rice Sect. These two families, inherited for thousands of years, are due to the needs of the rulers of the current dynasty. So it was preserved. Because one is a Taoist bull-eared person, and the other is a Confucian sage who persuades people all over the world to read. Both have extremely far-reaching political interests, so the rulers in power do not dare to offend them too much. Otherwise, it's not good to make a fuss. If you offend the believers of Taoism and the people who read the world, it will be a big deal.
And other families, in the torrent of history, gradually sank. In fact, their clan genealogy is still there, but it is no longer prosperous. The root of the patriarchal system lies in the family gatekeeper. In China, the rule of man is greater than the rule of law. That's where it comes from.
At the beginning of the Dashun Dynasty, there were ten major families in the world, including Longxi Li, Peixian Liu, Chenjun Xie, Langya Wang, Qinghe Cui, Fanyang Lu, Xingyang Zheng, Taiyuan Wang, Hongnong Yang, and Lanling Xiao. If you count the Luoyang Lu family, which established Dashun, there are eleven great families. In fact, even after the establishment of Dashun, these families did not recognize the Lu family as a super family. is because the Lu family is not good at writing skills, but is famous for business.
Shinong industry and commerce, businessmen have always been looked down upon by the world, not to mention those families who are extremely concerned about status? Dashun's Taizu is also not ambiguous, since you don't admit it, then I don't want you to be an official. The imperial examination was created, and the Jiupin Zhongzheng system was no longer used, which suddenly cut off the source of the family gate valve. The children of the family are many gentlemen, and in less than a few generations, they have declined by themselves.
These families, of course, hate the Lu family in their bones, but unfortunately the general trend of the world is controlled by the Lu family, and after the troubles are suppressed, there is no one in the family. In the Hongxiang period, even if there is still a family, it is just a lingering breath.
After hearing Liu Geng's explanation, Lu Chengqi suddenly realized and said: "I know, these people have wolf ambitions, and they have to warn them well." If they don't know how to read it, then don't blame me for not having long eyes! ”
When Liu Geng heard this, he was so frightened that he didn't dare to say more. Lu Chengqi suddenly asked: "The family has fallen to this point, where do you still have the heart to do these things?" Liu Qing, do you think it could be that someone in the DPRK and China is deliberately making trouble and wants to undermine the new law? ”
Liu Geng was in a cold sweat when he heard this, and said cautiously: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that there is no official who is so ...... as short-sighted."
Lu Chengqi said lightly: "Huang Qing's Zhishi recital sheet was passed to me for the first time, if someone hadn't leaked the news, how would Yushitai know the content on it?" ”
Liu Geng said tremblingly: "Perhaps...... Maybe there is a thief in Lord Huang's house......"
Lu Chengqi thought about it, and this is also the truth. If you get the watch from him, it's really unlikely. However, it cannot be said that the DPRK and Chinese officials are no longer suspicious. These officials seem to be a faction that serves the country and the people, but in fact, they are intrigued inside, and most of what they do is just their own selfish desires.
If Dashun is ruined at this moment, the first one to fall to the enemy will definitely be the official with the most flowers. And the first to be martyred is probably an official of the Imperial Historical Tower.
Lu Chengqi sighed in his heart and thought: "Iron still needs to be hard, if it really comes to that point, Dashun should also die." What I want to do is just to let my Han people not be bullied by foreigners. Whether it is the Mongols, the Jurchens, or the Europeans, I can't let them do whatever they want in the Central Plains! ”
Thinking of this, Lu Chengqi asked Liu Geng to step back, and then handed the article to the waiter, and said: "Send it to the Dashun Min Newspaper and let them print the headlines, and you need to see it tomorrow!" ”
The chamberlain set off immediately, but Lu Chengqi's heart couldn't calm down for a long time, and the impact brought to him by the family's gate valve was too great. It completely subverted his cognition, making him feel a sense of confusion, where will this empire heading in an unknown direction go? (To be continued.) )
