Chapter 167: The Niu Li Party Struggle in the Early Tang Dynasty (Part II)

Li Junxian saw that the following poor students and aristocratic students were arguing with each other, wanting to prove that his statement was right. And Li Junxian can only give them one evaluation, that is, the Niu Li party struggle in the early years of the Tang Dynasty. The Niu Li party struggle was actually a long-term party struggle in the last years of the Tang Dynasty, mainly between the Han family and the aristocracy headed by Niu Shengyu and Li Deyu. This party and government began to fight over the interests of the poor and the aristocracy, respectively, and continued to fight each other for nearly forty years. This time, the party and government also depleted the nutrients of the Tang Dynasty, and finally let the Tang Dynasty go to extinction.

And now the arguments between these poor families and the children of the nobility also make Li Junxian seem to see a Niu Li party dispute, but the level of this fight is called a rotten!

"General Li, what do you think of them?" Zheng Liwan, who was next to Li Junxian, asked curiously.

"Miss Zheng, who do you think I will support?" Li Junxian asked rhetorically.

"General Li, the little girl doesn't know either! Because General Li was also from a poor background, he fought hard to achieve this position with a knife and a gun. However, General Li is also a prince of the imperial court, and he is also a noble, and it stands to reason that he also supports the aristocracy. Speaking of these two, the little woman really doesn't know which side General Li will support? Zheng Liwan also asked a little puzzled.

Li Junxian didn't answer, he just watched the fools below arguing.

The students below were still making noise, and Zheng Liwan saw Li Junxian sneering at these students, and asked curiously: "General Li, you don't seem to care about the arguments of these students!" They all have a point, how can you not agree with one or the other? ”

"Hmph, this is like two illiterate people, discussing which calligraphy is better, Yu Shinan or Ouyang Xun!" Li Junxian said.

"Poof!" Zheng Liwan laughed.

Li Junxian's analogy is very unbearable, because Yu Shinan and Ouyang Xu were both famous calligraphers in the early years of the Tang Dynasty, and their handwriting was very good. But if two illiterate people were to judge, would they be able to judge? Li Junxian's metaphor is actually saying that these so-called students will not govern for officials at all, but they are talking about this policy here or not. They are not judged from the point of view of justice at all, they are judged by their own wills and deeds. They naturally divide two positions, the nobles of the poor family, so they are the butt to decide the head, and they are not judging from the neutral side at all.

"General Li, your analogy is appropriate, aren't they just two illiterate people talking about calligraphy? However, General Li, these students are born to be acupuncture, and they speak as if they are all geniuses. It seems that as long as they go up to become officials, they can be called the prime ministers of the country. However, in fact, many of them are high-eyed and low-handed. Zheng Liwan also shook her head and said.

Li Junxian didn't know that there were more such students. Whether it was those scholars in ancient times who commented on government affairs and the imperial court, or even scolded those corrupt officials and corrupt officials, there were many of these in later generations. When it comes to politics, many liberal arts students are the first to talk about politics, but they don't have any experience in governing at all, so they scold those political axes for their decisions. Those students seem to be able to do better than those officials as long as they become officials. However, Li Junxian can be sure that if those students are really allowed to sit in the positions of those officials, I am afraid that they are just doing worse than others.

These bullshit talents all seem to have never met each other, but the vast majority of them are real straw bales, and they are not talented at all. They didn't really go down to the grassroots level to see the lives of those people, and they didn't know how those political axes were working at all, and what interests and needs of all parties were. These so-called policies were all conceived by them with a pat on their heads, and they are simply nothing more than empty buildings and cannot be implemented. If they are really allowed to become officials, I am afraid that they will be the ones who harm the people.

Li Junxian heard that these idiots were arguing here, and he already had the idea of leaving. Because he really can't listen to these guys competing to see who has a lower IQ, and listening to this kind of competition for people with a low IQ debating, that's simply torturing himself. However, when Li Junxian just wanted to leave, some people didn't let him go.

"We can't get a result like this, so let's just let the guests judge!" A student shouted.

"Good! Since you want the guests to judge, let the guests judge! Another student shouted.

Next, the students looked at the guests on the podium and wanted them to give a judgment. They all think they're right, so they're not afraid of those guests at all.

"Ladies and gentlemen, do you want that guest to judge?" Kong Yingda asked.

Those poor students shook their heads when they looked at the guests on the rostrum. Because these guests are all officials of the officialdom, or Confucianism, these people's families are rich and noble, so they should all be on the side of those rich families. And now that the imperial examination system has just begun, many poor families have not yet entered the officialdom. Therefore, those officials and Confucians were all aristocratic people.

However, history has also proved that the imperial examination system is a killer feature that ends the politics of the family. When the imperial examination system was first introduced, it was still the aristocracy that had the upper hand. By the middle of the Tang Dynasty, the nobility and the Hanmen were evenly matched. But at the end of the Tang Dynasty, the Hanmen pressed the Shi clan to fight. As for the Song Dynasty, those big families are nowhere to be seen. This was the struggle between the two classes of the Hanmen and the scholars, and the Hanmen won the final victory. But now it is only the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, and the nobles of the officialdom still account for the vast majority.

"Then let General Li Junxian judge." A poor student said.

Li Junxian scolded in his heart: "You are competing for low IQ, what are you doing with me?" ”

"Then let General Li Junxian judge, General Li Junxian was born in poverty, and he should be able to uphold justice!" Another poor student said.

This guy is very shrewd, what he said Li Junxian is from a poor family, and he should be able to uphold justice, this is actually asking Li Junxian to help them. If Li Junxian doesn't help them, then I'm afraid they will give Li Junxian a reputation of "forgetting their roots". And whether it is a scholar or a poor family, they will not recognize a person who forgets his roots. Even the emperor would not like a person who has forgotten his roots. They wanted to use their fame to kidnap Li Junxian and let Li Junxian help them.

"Okay, I'll make a judgment for you!" Li Junxian also said.
