Chapter 144: The Remnants of the Times

Qin Palace.

The king of Qin is on the throne, and there is a list on the imperial case, which is a list of lords sent by Zongzheng.

Shang Jun's change of law was essentially a set of military title system, which gradually dismantled the feudal system that had been inherited when Zhou Tianzi divided the three thousand princes.

Since the division of the three families, this land has entered the world of the Warring States, and the already collapsed ritual and music system in the Spring and Autumn Period has been unable to adapt to reality, and various countries have changed their laws one after another.

Legalists of all dynasties saw the drawbacks of the feudal system, and began to change the law, innovate the system, and achieve the goal of strengthening the country.

Legalism is divided into three schools: law, art, and power, but the difference is that the focus of Legalists in various countries is different.

It's just that during this long period of time in a hundred years, the situation of the seven countries is different, and the degree and effect of the law change are also different. Even if the change is completed, the counterattack of the old clan is quite fierce.

Wu Qi's dismemberment and Shang Ying's car splitting are the best examples.

Among them, Qin's system of 20th rank military merit titles was the most successful.

It's just that this is just the beginning for the Qin State. To complete the construction of an empire, this system of military merit titles is far from enough.

Compared with the fact that the Six Kingdoms of Shandong gradually formed a compromise with the original clan forces in the process of reforming the law, the reform of the Qin State was relatively thorough.

However, this does not mean that the original clan power has completely disappeared. On the contrary, they were more tenacious than the clans of the Six Kingdoms of Shandong, and even parasitized into this system of military merit titles.

Since the beginning of Shang Jun's reform, in the past hundred years, the Qin State has experienced large and small turmoil. In the choice of the times, countless formerly prominent families have disappeared completely.

For the rest, although they are marginalized, they are more powerful.

This is not a bad thing for a king, as long as it is handled properly. And for the current situation in the Qin State, the choices of these people will also have a great impact.

Compared with the macro level of the system and the country's path, the more realistic considerations are the troops, financial resources and talents.

And these clans have these things in their hands.

On the list of the Qin king's imperial records, the names of the large and small titles and the lands they inherited are recorded.

From the end of King Zhaoxiang to the present, although the Qin State is still stable, there is a monstrous undercurrent brewing, and the situation is very complicated.

Just like the imprint of the times, most of the people on this list were knighted because of military merits, or sons succeeding their fathers, or newly obtained military exploits, while a small number of people inherited the original land and titles.

These small number of people are the children of the clan, and many of them are clans. The numbers recorded on the list are not as above board view as they seem, and many of them belong to gray areas that cannot be examined.

In the process of marginalization, the power of these clans under the supervision of the imperial court was gradually weakened. Concealing the number of households and fields under their jurisdiction, secretly expanding their troops, and secretly hiding weapons and armor are just common methods used by them.

King Qin's gaze was watching in it, and suddenly stopped in a certain line.

King Qin was able to notice this line on the dense list, not only was it very eye-catching to inherit the two hundred miles of Yongchu Land, but also the name of this person who attacked the lord made the young King Qin a little concerned.

"Zhao Shuang?"

The lights in the hall are bright, and the stars outside the hall are bright.

On the throne, the young King Qin smiled slightly, his gaze stayed for a moment, and then he continued to look.

......

Zilanxuan.

The starry night above Xianyang was bright, Zhao Shuang looked up at the sky and sighed slightly.

"What's wrong with you?"

The purple girl appeared behind him, and when she saw him like this, she was a little puzzled.

"I just inherited two hundred miles of land from my family, and now I'm worried!"

The purple girl rolled her eyes, and she looked like you were underbeaten.

"Inherited two hundred miles of land, what's wrong?"

Zhao Shuang shook his head, put his hands behind his back, and walked into the house from the corridor outside the attic.

"The tree is a big wind!"

Zhao Shuang knew very well that Zhao Laosi, an old guy, took advantage of the power struggle within Xianyang to unite with some other old guys, so that the Xianyang court temporarily agreed to their right to manage the land under their jurisdiction.

In other words, it is to turn a blind eye and not to investigate in detail.

However, this is only temporary.

These clans have been marginalized, and many have withdrawn from Guanzhong. But in exchange, it is to expand its power wildly in some border places.

Obviously, when Zhao Laosi made this decision, he had already left a back hand and let the outstanding children in the clan come out. The Zhonglang given by the Empress Dowager Huayang are the bargaining chips for the transaction.

Now that the two sides have been cut, in this way, even if the power of the clan represented by Zhao Shuang has failed and finally been liquidated, their clan can still survive.

Zhao Laosi, an old guy, is scheming, pushing two, five or six, but what is in front of Zhao Shuang is a more realistic problem.

How to legalize the land of prostitution?

Zhao Shuang sighed slowly, he knew very well the risks involved. I also know that in the tide of the times, if you don't pay attention to it, you will be crushed.

"As the remnants of the times, even if they are still strong today, there is no place for us to sail the ship of the future."

The purple girl frowned, not understanding what Zhao Shuang was talking about at all.

"What do you want to say?"

"Zhao Laosi, that bastard, left a mess of bad things for me, slapped his ass and left. Not only that, but I also have to make a betrothal to a little girl. The years are long, the situation is changeable, I am worried! ”

The purple girl's eyebrows raised in an instant, and the muscles of her sideburns couldn't help twitching.

Little girl dolls? Engagement? How long have the years passed?

"So you're worried about this!"

Zhao Shuang, who was in the midst of melancholy, suddenly felt an unknown breath, looked up, and saw the purple girl looking at him, with deep anger.

"I ....."

Wei Zhuang has been worried these days, and for him, the purple girl is an important person. After seeing with his own eyes what kind of person Zhao Dabao was, he didn't want to watch the purple girl continue to fall on Zhao Dabao's broken boat.

It's just that when he came to look for the Purple Girl, he hadn't entered the door yet, and from a distance, he heard the sound of falling things from the Purple Girl's room.

Then, Wei Zhuang saw that the kid named Zhao Dabao ran out of the purple girl's house in embarrassment, and there was an angry sound from the house.

"Perverted!"

Zhao Dabao looked flustered, and when he passed by Wei Zhuang, he didn't say hello.

Wei Zhuang continued to step forward, and saw that the purple girl in the room was full of anger, and when she saw Wei Zhuang, she didn't have a good face.

"What are you going to do?"

"You and him?"

"I don't have anything to do with him, and I have to explain it to you a few times."

The purple girl looked at Wei Zhuang with an unhappy face and closed the door.

Wei Zhuang was closed, but when he saw the purple girl like this, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, but he could hear her voice coming from behind the door.

"Men don't have a good thing, disgusting!"
