Chapter 86: Ju Chang'an

For Zhang Fei's joke, others could only laugh after listening to it, and then sighed.

It is precisely because of the troubled times that everyone present is nostalgic for the peaceful and prosperous times.

Prior to this, the civil and military had their own views on how the Han Dynasty had fallen to its current situation step by step.

Some people think that Cao Cao has the intention of usurping, some people think that it is due to Dong Zhuo's rebellion, and some people think that the disaster caused the ten permanent servants and the yellow scarf, and more boldly directly identified the second emperor Huan Ling.

But now a behemoth named the Saga appears in their sight.

This thing was conceived by the Great Han, and the Great Han was finally devoured by him, and the grandson and brother of the king built a high banquet platform on top of it, and the people who were knocked out of the bone and sucked the marrow sank and wailed under it.

And Liu Bei couldn't help but ask his own question in a low voice:

"If we hadn't failed in the light curtain, wouldn't there have been this century-old scourge?"

Kong Ming wanted to nod, but eventually shook his head.

When Emperor Guangwu was the ancestor, he must have understood and understood the calamity of the family, otherwise he would not have resigned and abolished the crown prince and many other things, for Emperor Guangwu at that time, he had done what he thought was the best.

Liu Bei didn't see much discouragement, and looked at the light curtain with confidence:

"I'm not as wise as Kong Ming, I'm worried about hundreds of years later, but as long as I can defeat the Cao thief, I think this world will be better than that Wei Jin anyway."

Kong Ming chuckled and arched his hand: "Liang is willing to follow the lord, and set the world to be peaceful and strong, and open up the wisdom of the people, so as not to make it poisonous for a hundred years." ”

Pang Tong was a little envious, and he also bowed his hand and said: "Tong is willing to follow the lord, dedicate his talents and wisdom to his strategy, destroy the rats in Jiangdong, and ask for the usurpation of the Han rebels!" ”

Zhang Fei scratched his ears and cheeks, and finally gave up:

"Brother, so do I!"

……

Li Shimin slowly followed the narration of the light curtain, and finally became dumbfounded:

"Everything is because the imperial examination is not famous?"

If you don't have a name, you have the wind of doing it, and when it comes to personal contacts and strong family background, the children of the poor family are naturally not the opponents of the scholar family.

The great surnames of the scholar clan successfully dragged the imperial examination, which was praised by later generations, to the field they were familiar with, and then completely defeated the Hanmen as an opponent.

They also contributed to the collapse of Datang, and the Datang that eventually collapsed also buried them in the dust.

What made Li Shimin frown the most was the friends that the scroll finally brought:

"What a master and protégé."

Li Shimin tasted it for a moment and sneered:

"Haoqiang's surname has gone to the family gate, and then to the surname of this scholar's family, who wants to share the world with me?"

"If they don't die, my heart will not be at peace!"

Empress Eldest Sun gently patted the back of Li Shimin's hand and told him not to get too excited, so as not to hum and chirp when his head hurts later.

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui's faces are commonplace, for them, His Majesty has experienced great ups and downs today, and now those who hit the palm of their hands will not be soft.

And the light curtain has said before that this is the time when the surname is weak, and it is indeed a good time to start.

It's just that...... Fang Du and the two secretly exchanged a look:

In these five surnames and seven wangs, there is also Longxi Li, right?

Wei Zheng comprehended this for the first time, and at this time, he only felt like an ice wind blowing in his face, chilling to the bone, and stood on the spot.

And Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui are both on the list, these two are old ministers, and they can already be called smart.

His Majesty has said so, and the fame of the imperial examination is almost a sure thing.

Therefore, Fang Du and the others took the initiative to lead the work of formulating new rules for the imperial examination.

Li Shiyun and Wei Chi Jingde also expressed their attitudes one after another, if the surname wants to make trouble, they are willing to lead the troops there.

However, Li Shimin waved his hand and felt that there was no need to worry: they had better make trouble.

After the incident was revealed, Li Shimin once again ridiculed his descendant:

"If you really believe this Li Linfu's words, then you are a fool."

"If you guess and don't move, you're a mediocre person!"

Of course, there is a more terrifying possibility, that is, although he guessed that he was deceived, he did not dare to act because of the power of the prime minister.

As a result, Li Shimin's mood became even more depressed, and he only felt that the history of the Tang Dynasty was like a prison rope this night, and he couldn't move when he was bound.

And looking at the name Huang Chao that finally appeared, Li Shimin's face was cold:

The Jin Dynasty gate valve created evil, and there was the rebellion of the eight kings and the disaster of Yongjia.

This Tang Dynasty scholar clan created evil, and created a yellow nest that destroyed them.

Is it really no growth at all?

[The gate lord clan of the Tang Dynasty gradually adapted to the imperial examination, but on the contrary, the imperial examination also completed the last wave of transformation of the gate valve.

There is a very important point in the game of Xingjuan that they have developed, which is that "Jingzhao is precious".

After all, it doesn't matter if you want to give gifts to form a party, or you still want to set the ranking of the imperial examination in the paper, or simply to participate in the imperial examination.

Regardless of any of the above, living in the capital is definitely more convenient than being in the local area.

In this process, the Tang Dynasty's gate lord clan gradually revealed three characteristics:

i.e., centralization, urbanization, and demilitarization.

The families of the Han Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty were basically "double families", that is, the "family" of the country manor was used to generate wealth, and then the wealth was exchanged for the "family" of the capital to gain power.

For the families of these two dynasties, the land, tenant farmers, tribesmen, and disciples in the big country estates were the foundation of their strength.

However, in order to adapt to the imperial examination system, the actual addresses of the gate valves of the Tang Dynasty began to be far away from their original places of origin, and began to gather and live in the Liangjing corridor area: that is, the line from Chang'an to Luoyang.

After the success of the imperial examination, the clan of the gate lords transitioned from local power to central bureaucracy.

And since the Northern and Southern Dynasties, it has begun to become a tradition for officials and people in different places, which means that if your ancestral home is Shandong, then the central government will definitely not send you back to Shandong to be an official.

In this process, the control of the gate lord clan over the land of the country manor plummeted, and the area of the Liangjing corridor gradually became the new countryside of the gate lord clan.

After the decline of the manors controlled by the gate lord clan, in the late Tang Dynasty, with the collapse of the Juntian system and the gradual rise of the conscription system, the slaves and maids who were pardoned as good people also had more choices, and they no longer had to commit to these manors.

It is precisely because of the centralization and urbanization of the gate lord clan that Huang Chao was able to wipe out the gate lord clan very smoothly after he invaded Chang'an.

The demilitarization also leaves them with little resistance to the Yellow Nest.

In terms of the final outcome, the powerful people still can't change their eating after hundreds of years.

After all, from Liu Yuan to Shi Le, Liu Yu to Hou Jing, and then to Huang Chao and Zhu Wen, it can be said that these gravediggers were basically forced out by the powerful themselves.

From this point of view, the Maison even has to thank Huang Chao for helping them break this ugly circle, after all:

Why is the puppet afraid of the Yellow Nest? Both the noble and the poor go to a pot! 】

Tomorrow Huang Chao, and then this video should also be over, thanksgiving.
