When Chen Fei heard that Wang Ze claimed that his family was "not a king but a king", he immediately thought that this was the Taiyuan Wang family. And the Taiyuan royal family is also one of the huge scholars. And this Wang Ze mentioned his Wang family, obviously very proud. And Chen Fei knew that this Wang Ze realm had not yet reached home, because he was still very proud when he mentioned his Wang family.

"I seem to have heard of it." Chen Fei thought.

Chen Fei remembered that when he was a child, he had heard someone introduce several surnames in the orphanage. In later generations, Wang was one of the major surnames in China. The surname Liu and the surname Li, they relied on the establishment of a dynasty, so they were able to develop themselves into big surnames. However, the Wang family developed slowly, and then gradually became a big surname. Later, in later generations, Chen Fei's teacher also told him about the origin of the Wang family, that is, the origin of the surname they got was that many of them were former kings. Their ancestors were once royal families, and then they lost their thrones and became ordinary people. And this "king" is the proof that their ancestors were once royal.

"Our Wang family, since ancient times, has attached great importance to the education of younger generations. And they have always adhered to the indisputable family motto, and they also follow the trend, and will never do anything that is contrary to the trend of the whole world, which is the way of survival of our royal family. Wang Ze said.

Chen Fei listened to this statement and knew the tradition of the Wang family. Those surnamed Wang actually have a tradition since the Han Dynasty, that is, "not a king but a king". Although they had the opportunity to be the king, none of them chose to be the king. Although their ancestors may have been royal families, he can also recognize the situation and do not think about restoring the glory of his ancestors. And they have always been very in line with the trend of the world, and they will never go against the trend of the whole world, which is their way of survival.

Some people may say that they are not disciplined, but as a family, it is not easy to understand the truth of following the trend. As a politician. First of all, it is necessary to understand the principle of following the trend. If a person wants to reverse the general trend of the world, it is absolutely impossible to succeed. This is also the general trend of the world, the mighty and mighty, those who go along with it prosper, and those who go against it perish. The ancestral motto of the Wang family is that they will never do anything against the trend of the world, so it is also the ancestral motto of the Wang family.

And when the big families pretend to be high and disdain ordinary families, even poor families, they choose to marry the emperor, or even marry people from relatively ordinary backgrounds. And the Wang family is much more enlightened than the other seven sects and five surnames. They seldom rest on their laurels and are pretentious, so that they can be passed on for a long time.

"Originally, my father hoped that I would be able to take the imperial examination when I became an adult, but now that I want to play in the world, this task will be handed over to my younger brother." Wang Ze said.

Chen Fei immediately asked: "If I'm not mistaken, as a big family, I should be able to enter through the shade of the door, right?" As long as you are a big family, you should be able to directly become a court official through your family background, why do you still choose to take the imperial examination? ”

Like this kind of family, you can rely on the so-called door shade to directly enter the officialdom. In this way, they can also become officials for generations. And this kind of door shadow entry has always been the mainstream from the early to the middle of the Tang Dynasty, because these scholars are pretentious and disdainful of going to the imperial examination with ordinary people. And because of this door, the people who enter the official and the imperial examination. It represents the struggle between the Hanmen and the scholars. In the middle and late Tang Dynasty, there was a famous historical event, that is, the Niu Li Party Dispute. On the surface, the Niu Li Party Struggle is a party struggle between Niu Seng and Li Deyu, but in essence, Niu Seng and Ru, who were born in the Hanmen Imperial Examination, are indeed the leaders. The scholar clan led by Li Deyu, who has entered the Shi clan in the shadows, can be said to be a total outbreak of contradictions between the poor family and the system.

But this Wang Ze said that their Wang family actually wanted their descendants to take the imperial examination and choose to enter the imperial examination. You must know that the scholars don't look down on those who enter the imperial examination at all. This Wang family can actually take the initiative to take the imperial examination, which is equivalent to putting themselves and the poor family at the same starting point to compete, which is not easy. This kind of attitude is much better than those who pretend to be high-minded.

"My father said that the imperial examination will inevitably replace the door shade in the future and become the main channel for entering the office. If we still hold on to the method of entering the office, our Wang family will definitely decline in the future. Our Wang family is relying on following the trend to survive to this day. And since the imperial examination will inevitably replace the door shade and enter the office, then of course our Wang family must take the first step. If we don't get the first step, then we will gradually decline. Wang Ze said.

Wang Ze's words are also very fresh, because his Wang family can actually recognize the situation clearly and see that the imperial examination will inevitably become the only channel for entering the office, which is not easy. The scholars of this era all stubbornly believed that the imperial examination would not have a future, and those scholars were all officials who relied on the exclusion of the imperial examination. Because the imperial examination has just been implemented, the officials from the imperial examination are all from poor families, and the scholars disdain to take the imperial examination. Moreover, the officials who were born in the imperial examination will be one step behind others in the future promotion, which makes many scholars think that the best way to enter the office, and the door shade entry also means that they are high-ranking families, so they are naturally very proud.

"It seems that the reason why your Wang family has been able to inherit it for many years is not without reason. With this, your Wang family can keep up with the trend of the times every time, so where is there not to prosper? Chen Fei said.

And Wang Ze also took the initiative to say: "Brother Chen, you have a wide range of knowledge, and you have seen radio more than me, who has traveled for many years, but it is really not easy!" ”

Of course, Chen Fei will not say that he is from the later generations, for the knowledge that he has for more than a thousand years, coupled with the smooth network of later generations, he can't get any knowledge. But in ancient times, the knowledge that could be understood was books. Therefore, even this person who travels abroad all the year round cannot be more knowledgeable than Chen Fei.

"If Brother Chen wants to go to Taiyuan in the future, just report your name, and the Wang family will definitely treat you well!" Wang Ze said.

Chen Fei thought secretly: "It seems that this Wang Ze's status in the Wang family is not low, and he can actually let the Wang family treat me well, and he is not an ordinary role in the Wang family." At least, he is also an important person in the direct line of the Wang family. (To be continued......)
