Chapter 344: Matchmaking and Dirty Work (Part II)
Shi Bufan is now matchmaking between all parties, and then doing this kind of thing to dig a pit for the Shandong Shi clan together. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info can in fact prove that at some point it may be a strategic bloc of rivals, and perhaps there may be some degree of cooperation in some tactical details. Although strategically adversary, the necessary limes are not completely unable to cooperate in some details of common interests.
This time, Zheng Liwan entered the palace, and the first person to bear the brunt was Concubine Yan, who was the most disadvantaged. There is no force group behind her, so she has no backing. Under the harem system of the Tang Dynasty, the harem was actually just a reflection of the previous dynasty, so it was difficult to obtain a stable position without a concubine supported by a group. The Tang Dynasty's harem was actually a complete institutional problem, and the emperors of the Tang Dynasty relied on marriage to stabilize the throne, which inevitably brought about the consequences of the power of foreign relatives.
The strength of the relatives is strong, which naturally will also affect the personal behavior of the concubine, whether the concubine is voluntary or involuntary, she has also taken on various political responsibilities, so the Tang Dynasty's harem politics is a system problem. But in the Ming Dynasty, the harem was almost zero, so it was actually the difference between the deep-seated court systems of the two dynasties, not that the women of the Tang Dynasty were so keen on politics, they essentially appeared for the sake of politics.
However, at present, once Zheng Liwan of the Zheng family in Xingyang enters the palace, Concubine Yan is the most sensitive, although there is no evidence that she is coming at her, but she has been a princess for so many years, and now she has been promoted to become an imperial concubine.
As for the second, Gao Huitong also felt that his position was threatened. Although it is also a Shandong Shizu Group, it is best to control the channel in its own hands. The channel is a thing that continues to benefit from the source of energy, and everyone wants to control the channel in their own hands, and the channel in their own hands is really the most beneficial. If there are few channels, it must be for him, and as the owner of the channel, he will benefit the most. If the Shandong Shi clan builds another channel, then Gao Huitong's status will also fall suddenly, which will not be beneficial.
The Bohai Gao family also knew that it was obviously not in the interests of their Gao family to send Zheng Liwan into the palace this time, so it could be used as an opportunity to oppose Zheng Liwan's entry into the palace. As for Wei Zheng and the Pei family, and even the Hedong Shi clan, they currently hope to find a way to reorganize their own political power network as soon as possible, but it is not easy to install the concubine in Li Shimin's harem in a short time. Because the concubine who started first has already occupied the senior position, even if she is reluctantly inserted, she has to start from the bottom, which is too time-consuming.
Concubine Yan has status but lacks support, and the Hedong Shi clan urgently needs someone from the harem to help endorse her, so it can be said that they are working together. If we can take advantage of this time to dig a pit for Zheng Liwan of the Shandong Shi clan and build mutual trust together, it will be of great help to future cooperation. You may even be able to rely on this matter to let Concubine Yan and the Hedong Shi clan directly establish a deep level of cooperation together, and they will be inside and outside each other.
"As for me, I also hope that there will be some rifts within the Shandong Shi clan, which will be good for them to increase internal friction in the future. If it's a monolithic Shandong scholar, it's not good for me. Let the Shandong Shi clan have internal friction, which will be good for them to intensify internal differentiation in the future. The Gao family is not an ordinary scholar's family, the Bohai Gao family is the royal family of the Northern Qi Dynasty, even if the country is destroyed, it is not something to provoke. The Bohai Gao family is powerful, and once they fall out with several other families, it can finally affect the unity within the Shandong Shi clan. The Shandong Shi clan is bound to be defeated, and others can be considered whether they can be divided and transformed. Shi Bufan thought.
Shi Bufan's plans for the future, his choice of the so-called class enemy is based on the Shandong Shi clan is the first to be attacked. This method is based on the economy, and the Shandong scholars are the most hardcore supporters of the traditional manor economy, and they are the most inconvertible kind of people. Therefore, the Shandong Shi clan is the most important target of Shi Bufan's attack, because the economic foundation of the Shandong Shi clan has determined that they are the group of people who cannot be transformed and integrated into the new economic base.
As for the rest, the Guanlong Group, the Guanlong Group looks like a martial artist on the surface, but it is based on the economy of homesteaders. The basis of the survival of the Guanlong group is the government military system, which is carried out according to the system of granting land to military households and then integrating soldiers and farmers. The economic basis for their formation is rather peculiar, and it is a component of both yeoman farmers and the army. Guanlong Group can consider transformation, but how to transform the future still needs means. If Shi Bufan succeeds in dismantling the yeoman farmers, then the Guanlong Group will have no room to survive. At that time, if the Guanlong Group wanted to survive, it would inevitably rely on changing the economic base.
According to the extraordinary plan, Guanlong Group belongs to the kind that can be transformed into cooperation. With the collapse of the yeoman farming system, Guanlong Group will inevitably face transformation and rely on a new economic foundation for transformation. As for foreign development, capital forces can gain benefits, and those martial artists of the Guanlong Group can obtain military exploits and political capital, as well as a lot of wealth, which is also a good choice.
As for the Guan Sergeant Clan, this Guan Sergeant Clan is mainly based on dry land, and it can be considered to be transformed or attacked. The mode of transformation is also a way of transformation from the past yeoman economy to the way of intensive agriculture, which is mainly based on corporatization and transformation. In addition, the influence of the Guan sergeant clan on Confucianism and various traditional economic models is absolute, and it is relatively easy to transform.
On the contrary, although the cultural aspect of the Shandong scholars is prosperous, they are also more deeply influenced by traditional thinking and cannot be changed.
"Since you can't change it, you can only focus on them first." Shi Bufan thought.
"I can't be completely hostile to all the scholars alone, and some interest groups can also be transformed, and I don't have to completely attack them all. Jiangnan has not yet been truly developed, and the wealthy people in Jiangnan are not very strong, and they are still mainly planting cash crops in Jiangnan, not growing grain. In this way, the Jiangnan Haozu can have the operability of transformation to a certain extent, and the corresponding transformation can be carried out in the future. ”
For the future situation, first of all, it is good to determine the biggest blow to the Shandong Shi clan, and you can consider cooperating with other groups.
Shi Bufan has looked at the political science and economics of the past dynasties, but in fact, class is not a constant layer. For example, a senior worker in a large company may earn many times more than the owner of a small company in a township, and even the small company may have a lot of debts.
However, it does not mean that the owner of the small factory is an ordinary person, and that the high-level worker is a bourgeoisie. The division of classes depends on whether they have the means of production in their hands, and what kind of means of production they have.
The Shandong scholars relied on land as a means of production, and established a manor economy, subleasing land to tenants and then collecting rents for a living. Such a large-scale manor economy is the foundation of their survival, which is already irreversible, and even completely integrated into their culture, which is the kind that cannot be transformed.
"The Shandong Shi clan must be solved, and knowing some rifts within the Shandong Shi clan will help them to pull back their legs next!" Shi Bufan thought.
Shi Bufan looked at the time, and then found that it was actually another morning, he met Gao Huitong from the palace like this, and after he came out, he went to Wei Zheng's house, so tossing was actually an all-nighter.
Shi Bufan simply didn't go home, and directly looked for another opportunity to enter the palace and ask to see Concubine Yan. Concubine Yan also met with Shi Bufan, because Concubine Yan has no one behind now, and she is completely in the harem and has no one to support her. Therefore, Concubine Yan is still weak, and she naturally does not dare to be too presumptuous. Of course, there is another reason, that is, Shi Bufan's wife Dugu Daxue is Shang Palace, if Dugu Daxue uses the power card to card Concubine Yan's various living treatments, then Concubine Yan will cry and faint in the toilet. A concubine who does not have enough family power to support her is not as powerful as Dugu Daxue, the real power of the Shang Palace.
So when Concubine Yan heard it, Shi Bufan asked to see her, and it was not good not to give face.
"If there is anything in Shi Langzhong, please say it as soon as possible, as a palace maid, it is not suitable for me to meet with the minister for too long for a long time!" Concubine Yan said first.
"Concubine Yan, you gave birth to the prince Li Zhen for the emperor, I didn't have time to congratulate me before, and I ask Concubine Yan to forgive me!" Shi Bufan said.
Concubine Yan shook her head and said, "Shi Langzhong, I know that you have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, if you have anything to say, hurry up and say it!" ”
"It seems that Concubine Yan has not been very down-to-earth lately, and she seems to be a little irritable!" Shi Bufan asked.
"What does this have to do with you, a foreign minister?" Concubine Yan asked politely.
Shi Bufan smiled and said, "Concubine Yan, this is not right. You are the emperor's concubine, it is your responsibility to take care of the emperor, if you are in a bad mood, how can the emperor be in a good mood as a pillow person? The emperor is the safety of the world, if he has any problems, then this is a loss for the world. ”
"As for the emperor's erudition and talent, both civil and military, he is naturally a great man of the first rank in the world. However, his experience lies more in governing the country, and I am afraid that he has few minds to teach future generations. ”
"Therefore, the heavy responsibility of teaching the prince and princess is often to get rid of you concubines. Empress Changsun presides over the six palaces, and I am afraid that she does not have time to teach so much in person. And Wei Guifei was born in a family of generals, and so is Concubine Yan, as for Concubine Yin, don't mention this. As for being able to say that she is educated, that is, Concubine Gao Shu. But Concubine Gao Shu may not be able to make so many princes, so she naturally needs a literate person to assist. Therefore, I think not only to fill the harem, but also for the sake of the future teaching of the prince and princess, it is inevitable to invite a young woman with the same extraordinary background and rich knowledge to take on this important responsibility. ”
"What's more, since ancient times, it has been said that Kanto is a prime minister, and Kansai is a general. In the Kanto region and even Shandong, the culture is at its peak, and even the women of the big families are full of culture. I think I can be fully qualified for this important task of teaching the princess and princess, and I can fill the harem and supplement the tone of the harem. It can also help the emperor cultivate his sentiments and help calm his mood! ”
"What?" Concubine Yan suddenly stared at her, and suddenly became nervous.
Shi Bufan's words finally made Concubine Yan understand what was going on, the nonsense in front of Shi Bufan was all nonsense, but in fact, it was useless at all. Shi Bufan's meaning is to tell Concubine Yan that the emperor wants to take a concubine, and this concubine is still from the Shandong Shi clan. If another woman from the Shandong Shi clan enters the harem, then Concubine Yan may not be able to sleep steadily.
To say that this Concubine Yan is already nervous enough, if it goes on like this, I'm afraid that Concubine Yan's position is a little hanging. To say that among the four concubines, Concubine Yan is definitely the biggest "soft persimmon". As the saying goes, persimmons should be picked up softly, if a woman representing the Shandong Shi clan enters the harem, then the most suitable object for surgery is not his concubine?
Of course, this is only a "possibility", not a "certainty". However, as long as there is a "possibility", it must be regarded as a "certainty", people have no long-term worries, and they cannot pin their fate on the kindness of others! Of course, Concubine Yan was nervous, and when she heard this, could Concubine Yan not be worried? Once the women of the Shandong Shi clan are allowed to enter the palace again, this shows that the Shandong Shi clan and Guan Long's group have reached an agreement, which is probably very unfavorable to Concubine Yan.
Concubine Yan finally couldn't hide the anxiety in her demeanor and began to worry. However, this kind of worry is not suitable to talk to Shi Bufan, a foreign minister, so Concubine Yan is also very embarrassed now. Faced with this situation, he obviously has no way to do it. There is no one behind her, there is no support from a power group, so she is naturally in an absolute weakness, and Concubine Yan is the most troublesome, I feel that Yali Mountain is big!
"Concubine Yan, are you nervous?" Shi Bufan said with a smile.
"Shi Bufan, did you deliberately come to see the jokes of this palace?" Concubine Yan finally couldn't help it anymore and asked with a little anger.
"Concubine Yan, don't worry, I'm here to solve your problems, because in fact, I don't want that woman surnamed Zheng to enter the palace. There are many people who think the same way as me, so I'm here to be a lobbyist, a person who connects all parties. Wouldn't it be great for everyone to cooperate with each other for their own benefit? I'm in charge of tandem and being a matchmaker to do the dirty work, which is the most suitable. Shi Bufan said.
"Who wouldn't?" Concubine Yan asked excitedly.
(Again, Zheng Liwan is a pig's foot and will not really enter the palace, this is just a means of political struggle, and this article will never give a daughter.) )
