"Your Majesty, Jingwen directly tore up the document on the spot, and then went back like no one else!" A eunuch said next to Li Shimin.

"Hahahaha...... this kid is shameless enough, but I like it!" Li Shimin said.

And the eldest grandson queen next to her said: "Your Majesty, why are you fighting with those warriors? Isn't it that the Lu family didn't agree to you taking a woman as a concubine? Why are you so angry? It's just a woman, if you make such a miasma for this, I'm afraid it's not good! ”

Empress Changsun still prioritizes state affairs, because Empress Changsun still persuaded Emperor Li Shimin not to be angry for a so-called woman of the Lu family. After all, the Lu family is a scholar family, and through the marriage network of hundreds of years, it can be said that their relationship is related to many big scholar families. There are in-laws of the Lu family in the seven sects and five surnames, if the emperor and the Lu family are fighting, it is fighting with the entire scholar group, what if this is a bad game for the country? Therefore, Empress Changsun still wants to persuade from the aspect of state affairs not to be angry because of a woman from the Lu family.

But Li Shimin said: "Guanyin, do you really think that I am angry for this woman of the Lu family? A woman from the Lu family, I wouldn't be so angry. I have another reason! ”

"Oh? How? Empress Eldest Sun asked.

Li Shimin continued: "Actually, I am not because the Lu family despises me, but because the Lu family is about to marry the eldest granddaughter of the Cui family. Once the head of the Lu family marries the eldest granddaughter of the Cui family, the Lu family and the Cui family will go one step further in the future. And. The reason why the scholars were able to be so rampant was because of their centuries-old marriages. That's what tied everyone together. And I intend to break the chain of hospitality of this noble clan. As long as they can be prevented from continuing to marry each other, then they will be completely separated. Once the generations of the Shi clan have not been able to marry each other, their blood ties will be far away, and they will not be able to condense into one. Then we Datang can gradually and slowly clean them up! ”

Li Shimin said that when he came to the back, he was already ruthless. The Tang Dynasty is currently the ruler of the family, although not many of the prime ministers of the dynasty are scholars, but Li Shimin knows that in the middle level, many officials are officials of the scholar family. Or an official who was sponsored by the gentry. It doesn't take a few generations for the scholar clan to be able to produce a few prime minister-level figures, which is very unfavorable to the royal family. These nobles have a monopoly on officialdom, but their loyalty to the emperor is not high, far less than their loyalty to their families.

And now, although the imperial examination has begun, the imperial examination system has just developed and has not been able to popularize. Relying on those officials in the imperial examination alone, I am afraid it will be difficult to obtain the strength enough to expel the scholars. And now Li Shimin has shifted from the time of fighting for world domination to internal governance. Now the key is to break the network of these scholars. And in addition to promoting those civil servants from poor families and even small officials in the officialdom, there is also a way to cut off the in-law network of this noble family.

As long as the scholars cannot marry for several generations, then their relationship will be completely distant. Now the Cui family actually wants to marry their daughter to the Lu family. And Li Shimin also saw this opportunity, that is, this matter has been stirred up. As long as this matter is messed up, it is tantamount to making it impossible for the Cui family and the Lu family to continue to be linked.

And the marriage of the scholar clan is very particular. As in the battlefield officialdom, pay attention to soldiers against soldiers, generals against generals, and kings against kings. In other words, a concubine can only marry the daughter of another family. This is the standard in most cases. And those sons and daughters who are concubines have no identity at all. If you take it for marriage, people don't look down on it! For the concubines of wealthy families, in fact, the fate is very tragic. Ordinary poor families can also work hard to achieve their careers, but if you want to work hard for the concubine of a wealthy family, the family will not only not support it, but will suppress it, because he is afraid that your achievements will affect the status of your son. And if they want to marry wives, they are naturally unwilling to marry those women from peasant families. They are also educated, how can they look down on the daughters of ordinary people? As a result, it is not easy to marry a wife, and it is not easy to be high or low. And even if they are officials, they will not get much support from the family, because more resources are given to their sons-in-law.

Therefore, the ancient wealthy concubines were also a tragedy, and they were even half slaves of their sons in law many times. And these concubines cannot be used for marriage, they have no inheritance rights, and if they are used for marriage in the future, it will be a waste at all. Most of the big families will only be used to marry if they can have the right to inherit, so Li Shimin just wants to deliberately mess up the marriage of the sons and daughters of these seven clans and five surnames, so that the in-law network of these big families can be cut off.

"Then why let Jingwen come? This kid is so shameless! Empress Eldest Sun asked.

Li Shimin said: "Shameless is good! It's because he's shameless enough that I chose him to be the one who charges into battle. If you are a normal person, then I am afraid it is inevitable to talk about the law and reason, but shameless people are different. Shameless people will not reason with you at all, and they will not talk to you about the law. And those scholars read too much, but they are not shameless, they have received the influence of morality, so they cannot be shameless. But Jingwen is different, he has no scruples, he just wants to be so shameless, so that the scholars have no way to take him. Moreover, Jing Wen doesn't say anything else, the strength behind it is still good, and the Cui family and the Lu family can't do anything to him. Anyway, my purpose is to mess up this matter, and let those nobles know that I don't want them to marry. ”

Only then did Empress Changsun know that Li Shimin's intention was to mess up this marriage. As for Jingwen, it was because he was shameless enough and shameless enough that he asked Jingwen to do this. If it is another official, it is inevitable that he will have to be faceless and dare not be shameless. But Jingwen is not in this danger, because Jingwen has no hope of taking the right path, he has relied on this shameless, despicable, and somewhat capable situation to get to where he is today. Therefore, if Jingwen used normal channels, it would hurt him. If there is one word to describe it, it is that Jingwen is a political zhì hooligan. Political hooligans, never pay attention to any rules, do not play cards according to common sense. Therefore, Li Shimin's use of Jingwen to these scholars can be regarded as "fighting poison with poison". (To be continued......)
