Chapter 168: The Military Merit System Is Going to Change? (Ask for subscription)

Childe Gao and several people looked at each other.

Seeing that a few people were silent, Ji Heng stopped his gaze on Gongzigao's face.

Gongzi Gao showed a wry smile on his face, and said: "Mr. is serious, we don't have a title, and according to the laws of Great Qin, we are not qualified to be a leader." ”

"Don't hide it, sir, my brothers and I haven't thought about it."

"The only thing I want is to get a knighthood."

"If the name is not right, the word is not good."

"I waited for my father's trust and allowed to be in the clan, but this practice is contrary to the law, and it is really unspeakable, the children of the Great Qin clan have always been iron-clad, in and out of the battlefield, and those who have made meritorious contributions abound, in the past, many children surnamed Ying have not been able to rank in the clan because of their military merits, which has also become a regret in the lives of many children surnamed Ying."

"Although we are in the clan, we are not worthy of the name."

"Fear in my heart."

"That's why I came to ask sir."

Ji Heng looked at the son's senior few people, and frowned slightly.

A few people still have some concealment.

But he probably knew why.

Because their clan registration was given by the First Emperor, if the First Emperor is gone one day, the clan registration on their heads may not be able to stand on the law.

The Great Qin clan enjoyed a generous treatment.

They have always been pampered.

If they are deprived of their clan membership one day, I am afraid that it will be difficult for them to even make a living, but what Gongzi Gao is worried about now is not necessarily his own clan registration, but the clan registration of his own heirs and future children.

The preferential treatment they are receiving now is actually abnormal.

It is also inappropriate to be ordered by law.

But because of that.

Everything they enjoy now is not explicitly stipulated, that is, it is actually between the 'love' of the first emperor to obtain, in fact, they are only a white body.

That's why they desperately want to get knighthoods.

Because the knighthood is real.

In the past, the children of the clan of Great Qin obtained the rank and field house, etc., all of which were linked to their own titles, but compared with ordinary officials, the children of the clan under the same title enjoyed more privileges.

But after all, there is a law to follow.

Now that the First Emperor is getting older, Fusu is becoming more and more powerful.

They are becoming more and more marginalized.

When Fusu ascends the throne, then Fusu will see brotherhood and may retain their clan membership, but what about their heirs? If they don't have a title of their own, how can their children inherit it?

And what can be inherited?

That's where they are uneasy.

Ji Heng said: "You don't actually have to be so secretive, this is a problem that the children of the clan have to face, especially when Daqin still establishes the country by law, and it is even more strict about this." ”

"You don't have a title, you are a white body."

"Your children are also white."

"Even because of the close relationship, your children may even be driven out of the temple, and not only will they not be able to shade five generations, but I am afraid that even three generations will be enough."

"It's normal for you to be worried."

"Still." Ji Heng paused for a moment, shook his head and said, "Your path to the title has actually been broken, and with the cessation of the war between the north and the south, there is almost no possibility for you to enlist in the army like the children of the clan in the past. ”

"As for the outstanding, there is no chance."

"At that time, the world was unified, the new dynasty was established, all kinds of waste were waiting to be revived, and there was a shortage of officials, and the first emperor had not allowed Er to wait for the office, and it was even more impossible to allow it now."

"As for earning a knighthood through tricks."

"It's unrealistic."

"The distinct household registration system of Daqinjing also blocks the possibility of you obtaining a knighthood."

Gongzi Gao smiled bitterly, and his body sitting solemnly was also soft.

How did they not know this?

Even.

When the new dynasty was first established, they supported the partition.

It's just that I don't dare to say it explicitly

In fact, it is not actually a support for separation, but I don't want to continue to stay in Xianyang, let alone become a captive child of the clan without a title.

The high walls of Xianyang have become a cage for them.

I've been holding them back for too long.

It's just that

They are not reconciled.

People are unwilling.

Especially when they are still in the Great Qin Imperial Family, they are so gloomy and willing to be silent, they can't accept it no matter what.

They didn't dare to covet the emperor's position, knowing that they didn't have this ability, let alone get the support of the courtiers, firstly, they did not have such deep connections as Fusu, and secondly, they were not very loved by their father, so they dispelled the unrealistic idea early.

But the laws of Great Qin are strict.

Under the law, Great Qin does not raise useless people.

They also have a sense of crisis in their hearts.

Now they are only temporarily able to rank in the clan through their father's favor for their children, but this favor is limited and time-limited, and one day, these preferential treatments will be taken away.

When the time comes.

Where will they go?

If you haven't been outside, you've seen the outside world.

They could have continued to endure it.

But Ji Heng's previous proposal to re-open the country made them open their hearts.

They want to get out!

They don't want to be locked up within the walls anymore.

Therefore, this time I specially came to ask Ji Heng, wanting Ji Heng to help them come up with an idea, so that they could use this to obtain the knighthood, and then avoid being swept away in the future.

At the same time, you can enter and exit the imperial city as a knight.

Ji Heng looked at the depressed people, and he also knew their thoughts.

The disposal of the prince has been thinking of a way for all dynasties.

In the end, there are actually two ways.

One is to be crowned princes.

The other is captive in the capital.

Both are good and bad.

Dividing it out, although it can cut off the connection with the ministers of the court, but at the same time, it is also easy to cause the power of the vassal king to be too great, even if it is just a false seal, because with the title of the clan, they can also make a lot of money in the local area, and the people are fished and fleshed, this kind of thing has always been common in history.

As for the captive capital, this kind of easy collusion between the prince and the ministers, if the emperor is weak, he may even be forcibly interfered with in the court.

Both have their advantages.

Daqin is actually in captivity in the capital right now.

Either way, however, the established system will eventually be broken.

Institutions are created by people.

The living are not bound by the system set up by the dead.

As long as the interests are big enough, there will be people who encroach on them.

This has been the case since ancient times.

Qin Shi Huang's so-called forbidden power is inside.

The children of the clan were given a privileged life, but their freedom was severely restricted.

Not allowed to enter the army, not allowed to go out.

This was actually influenced by his younger brother Cheng Chan.

In fact, a large part of the feudal monarch of Cheng Chan was fought by himself in the battlefield, although it is very likely that he picked ready-made peaches, but after all, he still went to the battlefield.

It was because of the backstab of the adult toad.

The First Emperor was extremely wary of the enlistment of the children of the clan.

In the past, most of the children of the clan obtained knighthoods by enlisting in the army.

And so it goes.

The First Emperor almost cut off the title of the children of the clan.

Whether the current children of the Great Qin clan can obtain the clan membership depends entirely on the emperor's face, the emperor is close, and he can naturally obtain the clan membership, and if the emperor is displeased, he can directly 'you do not meet the requirements of the clan with a white body' and expel him from the clan.

This move greatly strengthened the emperor's voice in the clan.

But it will also cause panic among the children of the clan.

Regarding the children of the clan, Ji Heng did not have much opinion.

Whether it is the Han Dynasty or the Tang Dynasty.

In the end, the system deviated, so that the follow-up had to be patched wildly, but in the end, it was still unavoidable, and after the rapid expansion of the children of the clan, it was a great loss to the government.

The Tang Dynasty was fine.

There are Li Shimin, Wu Zetian and others to kill the children of the clan, the number of the children of the clan has been controlled, and after the Anshi Rebellion, the Tang Dynasty's finances gradually deteriorated, and the military leaders stood side by side, and the children of the clan did not get any room for development, so they were directly contained.

The Tang Dynasty was a special case.

However, for the treatment of the children of the clan, the Tang Dynasty was the most enlightened and the most instructive.

It's just that under the influence of the current Zongzhou patriarchal legal system, many ideas of the Tang Dynasty will encounter great resistance in the Qin Dynasty, and they cannot be directly copied, otherwise it will definitely lead to the dissatisfaction of the 'times'.

Ji Heng's eyes moved slightly.

He recalled the situation in the Tang Dynasty in his mind, and the corners of his mouth gradually swept up with an arc, which was very small, and it was quickly hidden.

He spoke: "It is impossible for you to obtain a knighthood by normal means, but ordinary methods are not feasible, and finding another way may not be impossible. ”

When Gongzi Gao heard that 'another way is feasible', he immediately became interested again, and his excited expression flowed on his face, and his body, which had been paralyzed, stood up again.

Gongzi Gao hurriedly said, "Please also ask Mr. to speak up." ”

Ji Heng shook his head and said: "Some things are not yet time, and it is not now, the only thing I can tell you is that the military merit lord will gradually change, and on the way to change, it will promote a lot of changes, if you can take advantage of these changes, you may not be able to get the title." ”

"It's not impossible to be out of the woods at that time."

"The military merit system is going to change?" Gongzi Gao was stunned, he looked at Ji Heng suspiciously, with a hint of surprise in his eyes, he had never heard of this news, how did Ji Heng know?

But he didn't doubt it.

Ji Heng's talent.

He knows something.

Ji Heng said so, presumably so.

It's just that Ji Heng's words are too general and don't give information at all, even if they want to take advantage of the changes, they can't talk about it at all.

Hu Hai opened his mouth and said, "Mr. Ji, you explain what you say." ”

"What will happen to the military meritorious?"

Ji Heng glanced at Hu Hai, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said lightly: "The military merit system is no longer suitable for Daqin at the moment, but it is still being implemented by the habits of the world, but it is actually difficult for Daqin to support the continued operation of the military merit system." ”

"So the military merit will change."

"But before the change, Daqin will gradually fulfill its past promises."

"Part of the reward, part of the false reward."

"In the end, it will be cashed out with a reward of equal or slightly inferior value, and at that time, there will be a large number of people in Guanzhong who have received real rewards and false rewards, and the imperial court will have to deal with this part for a long time in the future."

"One of the key points is to allow the children of the lower lords to go to school."

"Your opportunity is here."

Ji Heng slowly said what he thought in his heart.
