Chapter 2214 The Twins of the Aristocratic Family Meng Chang
Liu Muzhi looked at Liu Yu, who frowned slightly, obviously a little surprised, and continued: "Madam and Wang Mi have been emphasizing that in the future, if the children of aristocratic families want to continue to retain wealth, they can only join the army and make meritorious deeds. Find it in Feng Sheng
Before me, Xie Hui's distant uncle, Wang Yuzhi of the Langya Wang family, expressed to me his desire to serve in your military mansion. Oh, by the way, Xie Hui's mother is Wang Yuzhi's cousin.
Their grandfathers were all Wang Huzhi, a famous minister who had served as General Pingbei."
Liu Yu asked in surprise: "Is Wang Huzhi the brother of Wang Xizhi, the sage of calligraphy?"
Liu Muzhi shook his head: "No, they are cousins. Wang Xizhi's father Wang Kuang is the cousin of our founding prime minister Wang Dao, and Wang Huzhi's father Wang Miao is also the cousin of Wang Dao, although he is not as famous as
Wang Dao and Wang Xizhi were also the governors of the founding party of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. They were as famous as Xie Xianggong's father, Xie Kun, the head of the Xie family in Chen County. The relationship between Wang Huzhi and the Xie family lasted for hundreds of years.
Just like Wang Huzhi’s daughter-in-law, Wang Yuzhi’s mother is the Xie family’s daughter.”
Liu Yu breathed a long sigh of relief: "This upper-class family in the Jin Dynasty has been intertwined with each other for hundreds of years. It's really not just a lie. But this Wang Yuzhi, why didn't you come to me earlier?"
Liu Muzhi sighed: "Because Wang Yuzhi's wife is Huan Xuan's sister."
Liu Yu took a breath of air: "Is there still such a relationship? Then it's not a question of whether I should use him or not, but a question of whether to kill him or not."
Liu Muzhi smiled and waved his hand: "Don't get me wrong, Wang Yuzhi is not a member of the Huan family. His marriage to the Huan family back then was just the result of a marriage between big families. During the years when Huan Wen took over Jiankang, his relationship with the Huan family
There are quite a few big families who get married, and even the Xie family is not exempt from customs. Is it possible that you want to get rid of the Xie family as well?"
Liu Yu curled his lips: "Then when Huan Xuan comes to Beijing this time, I'm afraid he will mention his brother-in-law a lot."
Liu Muzhi shook his head: "When Wang Yuzhi was an official in Jingzhou, he didn't want to have a deep relationship with the Huan family, and he took the initiative to let his wife return to her parents' home. Probably to keep a distance from Huan Xuan, Huan Xuan gained power.
At that time, he was recruited as a prefect in Jingzhou several times to work under him, but he refused to resign. This situation is not uncommon among high-ranking families, not because they have more backbone, but because they feel that the situation
It is uncertain and cannot be easily tied to a certain force to avoid being liquidated. Therefore, after a hundred years, only families that adhere to this way of life can last for a long time. Others like the Diao family will have no chance of making a comeback.
.”
Liu Yu nodded: "Then Wang Yuzhi took the initiative to vote at this time, just to show his loyalty to me and to show his position to the entire family?"
Liu Muzhi said seriously: "Yes, as Huanxuan's brother-in-law, he needs to be loyal to you in this way. Now even the Xie family does not openly stand on your side, and Wang Yuzhi is the first to take the initiative to come to you."
The son of a high-class family who is seeking employment in the military government is a slave. Your placement of him will affect the choices of many families, so you must be careful."
Liu Yu smiled and said: "You are now the boss of my house. All confidential decisions in the house, including personnel matters, depend on you. How do you think it should be arranged? As for Wang Yuzhi's background and his abilities, you
Have you figured it out?"
Liu Muzhi said: "Wang Yuzhi is a relatively typical son of aristocratic family. He does not join the army, does not practice martial arts, and knows nothing about military affairs. However, he has received a good education and is talented in literature. If he has to write some official documents and edicts, he can easily do it.
, he also has some officials under him, and he can be competent as a county guard or the like. But if he is asked to take charge of the army and govern politics, and be a military governor who can expand territory, that will definitely not work.
.”
Liu Yu laughed: "So, he is not as good as Xie Hun? At least Xie Hun can go into battle and kill people."
Liu Muzhi said seriously: "Send a slave, don't ask for too much. Xie Yan is because his father Xie Yan is a rare person among the children of aristocratic families who can command troops. The Xie family started as a general and has always attached great importance to the military training of their nephews.
, but among all the high-ranking sects in the Jin Dynasty, the Xie family is also unique. It is already very rare for someone like Wang Yuzhi to be willing to serve in your shogunate as a famous scholar. And in my opinion, he will not miss you.
big event."
Liu Yu nodded: "I really don't expect that among the high-ranking families, there will be a pillar like you, Xiang Xianzhi, or Meng Chang who came from a middle-class scholar. But as long as you are willing to join the army to serve the country and contribute to the great cause, that's it.
Good thing. You can help me arrange a meeting with Wang Yuzhi. If necessary, I will prepare enough betrothal gifts and go to his door to invite him in person. I know that scholars are still very fond of this trick."
Liu Muzhi waved his hand: "That's not necessary. This time Wang Yuzhi came to seek refuge with you, he wanted to show a master-slave attitude. If you invite him, it means that you are at least not above these high-ranking families.
This attitude is very important, so just let Wang Yuzhi take the initiative to come to you, and then you be polite."
Liu Yu nodded thoughtfully and suddenly said: "Who is the other descendant of Meng Chang's family, and how did he let Xie Hui and this person join his shogunate?"
Liu Muzhi smiled and said: "It's Fu Liang, the younger brother of the Chu army general Fu Hongzhi and the grandson of the famous Jin Dynasty official Fu Xian."
Liu Yu's eyes lit up: "Is that the child prodigy Fu Liang who once praised Xi Chao personally?"
Liu Muzhi nodded: "It is this person, the Fu family of Niyang in the north, who is a descendant of the famous minister Fu Jiezi of the Western Han Dynasty. During the Yellow Turban Rebellion of the Later Han Dynasty, there was a famous scholar named Fu Xie. He was unparalleled in loyalty and righteousness and won a reputation for thousands of years.
His descendants Fu Xuan, Fu Xian, etc. also served in the Jin Dynasty and were famous officials. Fu Hongzhi's branch originally stayed in his hometown in Niyang, and later moved to Jingzhou. Although they have the same surname as Fu, they are no longer closely related.
Just like you and I, our ancestors five hundred years ago were all one family, but now we are not considered the same clan."
Liu Yu nodded: "Yes, even I have heard of Fu Liang's reputation. It is said that Xi Chao had a good relationship with his father Fu Yuan. When he went to his house, he and his brother were only five or six years old. Xi Chao
Chao Pai suddenly stepped forward and took off his gorgeous coat, but Fu Liang showed no regrets and still stood upright, in stark contrast to his crying brother. At that time, Xi Chao said to his father, "You are a little son."
He will definitely become a great weapon in the future. This matter was very famous when you and I first joined Beifu. After so many years, this little prodigy has grown up and become an official to inherit the family business. However, he seems to have been working under Huan Qian.
Let his subordinates do their work, I have seen him in Huan Qian's army before."
