Chapter 30: Concessions
Wang Yan sneered, follow the law?
"Eldest brother shouldn't have read the Qi Army's legal order?"
"Not really." He has been studying history books recently, and he hasn't had time to read this kind of military law that has nothing to do with him for the time being.
"Military law is much stricter than the law used by ordinary civilian officials, and according to the civil law, they really did not give a lenient punishment, but from the perspective of military law, their punishment is already the lightest punishment that can be given for this crime."
Cui Rang has always advocated that knowing the law can better break the law, although Zijin is not interested in this statement, Wang Yan is very recognized, so he specially asked Cui Rang about the loopholes of various laws, and the court did not hide this kind of trick from him, who is familiar with the law.
"On the contrary, it was those civil ministers, because the elders of the clan who had the right to speak in the court had passed away, so they did not receive preferential treatment when sentencing."
"That's exactly what happened."
Xiao Yu was surprised for a moment, but he felt that it should be taken for granted, it seemed that this was in line with his vision of the powerful, a high-ranking and powerful old treacherous and cunning abusing his authority, anyway, there were few good descriptions.
Wang Yan misunderstood Xiao Yuan's meaning, thinking that he was dissatisfied with this situation, so he secretly pushed Zijin and motioned Zijin to go up and relieve Xiao Yuan.
Zijin glared at Wang Yan dissatisfiedly, and handed it over to her as soon as she encountered something that fooled people, what did she do?
"Big brother, don't you like courtiers to abuse power? In fact, I don't like it either, obviously even the royal family has to be cautious for fear of making a mistake and ruining the country, but those courtiers never know how to cherish it, but they can work hard to ruin the reputation of the court, but we are too young now to do anything, we can only watch, but we will grow up one day, since we are dissatisfied with this, we must strive to stand taller than them, and then change all kinds of unreasonableness, our Daqi is not good enough, but she is not hopeless, so we have to work hard to make her better. ”
Xiao Yu rubbed Zijin's head, and smiled very gently, "Worm Niang, your current affairs plan must be good, right?" ”
This is very much in line with the requirements of the imperial court for young students, both rational and patriotic, even if you understand the shortcomings of the imperial court, you can continue to brainwash people to make people loyal and patriotic, which is really a rare talent.
Zijin pulled the belt of his clothes embarrassedly, "I can't hide it, this is what Xuanzong of the former Jin Dynasty said when he played in front of the emperor." ”
The emperor, the perspective of the problem is different from ordinary people.
Xiao Yuan: "...... The insect girl's national history is really good. ”
Yes, the history of the country, although they have always called the Jin Dynasty founded by the ancestors of the Xiao family as the former Jin Dynasty, but in fact, the history books of the former Jin Dynasty are also part of the national history.
The reason why Emperor Xiaowu did not continue the national title of the previous dynasty like Emperor Guangwu was to get rid of the influence of the previous dynasty, such as the change of the official system, the treatment of the clan, and the right of the remnants of the previous dynasty to speak in this dynasty.
Once it is distinguished in the name of the country, it is no longer possible to use the ancestral system and old rules to restrain the emperor, and then leave some loopholes in the "Edict", and the emperor will have much less resistance to changing the law in the future.
However, this kind of action has added a heavy burden to the children of the royal family, and the national history of the children of the royal family is three hundred years longer than that taught in the academy and martial arts.
Three hundred years is enough for the Han to die three times.
History is like this, the more things you have to learn in the future, the more things you have to learn, if you were born in the Shang Dynasty, you don't even need to learn the classics of the hundred schools, Zijin complained endlessly about how tiring the three hundred years of national history is, and her heart is empty, after all, what she learned in the national history is not a good thing, she can only be modest, "It's just a little understanding." ”
Wang Yan couldn't bear to see Zijin make a fool, but Xiao Yan was amused by Zijin's rare weakness of heart, after all, the Zijin he saw was always very confident, even if she was talking nonsense, she could make you believe that what she said made sense, which is a very useful ability.
"Don't worry, I won't be dissatisfied because their punishment is not ruthless enough, the existence of privilege is something that cannot be avoided in this world, is it?"
Zijin couldn't deny it, because she was also one of the privileged people, if it weren't for the existence of Yanwangfu and Emperor Xuanwu, she wouldn't have been able to save Xiao Yu so easily.
Seeing that Zijin was silent, Xiao Yi smiled clearly, "Since the existence of privileges cannot be avoided, what we need to do is to restrain privileges as much as possible to avoid their abuse." ”
"Big brother wants to do that, right?" Zijin's voice was very soft, and she looked at Xiao Yu's eyes seriously, "Big brother can do it right?" ”
Xiao Yu looked back at Zijin calmly, "Yes, this is what I have to do." ”
Wang Yan sighed in his heart, it seems that the eldest brother still remembered this matter in his heart, otherwise he would not want to change the status quo, from the perspective of a victim, the eldest brother was already very restrained if he was not dissatisfied with the court because of this, not to mention that the eldest brother just wanted to change these unreasonable places in person, he couldn't stop it, and there was no reason to stop it.
Different from Wang Yan's helplessness, Zijin is obviously very supportive of Xiao Yuan's choice, she has thought about this problem under the guidance of Cui Rang, privilege will lead to monopoly, monopoly represents the decline of the imperial power of the ministers, only the continuous flow of officials at all levels, peasants can become officials, officials can also become peasants, such a court is the most beneficial to the emperor, the army is even more so, let the nobles control the armies everywhere, will only lead to the repetition of the situation of the late Han Dynasty.
Giving the courtiers a sense of crisis that can be replaced at any time is the secret of the emperor's ability to stay on top.
As an imperial family, only the emperor has sufficient authority to ensure their interests, so when the privileges of the imperial family have been restricted, Zijin does not mind letting his ministers be subject to the same constraints as the imperial family.
"Then what does the eldest brother want to do?"
"I want to enter the Martial Arts Palace!"
"It's hard."
"I'm not afraid of hardship!"
Zijin looked at the sharp-edged Xiao Yu in front of him, lowered his head and chuckled, and then raised his head and bowed his hand to Xiao Yuan, "That sister wishes the eldest brother what he wants!" ”
Wang Yan watched coldly, just watching Zijin give up the position that belonged to her.
As the Yan Wangfu is a clan, it is impossible for any emperor to let the two members of their family be in a high position, not to mention that Xiao Yu wants to enter the Wude Palace.
Not to mention whether you can go in, just talk about the conditions for entering the Wude Palace, guarding the land of a state for eight years, you must have worked in the army organization below the team for three years, and if you want to reach the threshold of the Wude Hall before the specified age, you are either a genius or someone in the army.
Giving up his own interests for a goal that is not visible at all, Wang Yan really wants to knock on Zijin's brain to see what is inside, Yun Mengze!
After finishing dinner with a heavy heart, Wang Yan deliberately went to Zijin's courtyard after Xiao Yi left.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw Zijin practicing calligraphy, so I could only wait patiently beside him.
By the time Zijin finished practicing a big character slowly, it had been half an hour, and Wang Yan's head that had been carried away by anger gradually sobered up.
Zijin handed the written paper to the female envoy to put away, sat down beside Wang Yan, and pretended to be confused, "Why did you come back again just when you went back, but something was left behind?" ”
Wang Yan didn't want to pretend to be confused with Zijin, "Why did my sister give him your connections in the army?" ”
"Isn't it the trouble you got me back?" Zijin slapped a rake, and pulled out the previous Wang Yanhui's mistake to let Xiao Shao remember Xiao Shao on the jade plate.
