"Didn't the recent list make a big fuss?" Li Youshen said nonchalantly, completely ignoring that he posted the list himself.
"It doesn't seem to be anything. At most, there are a lot more people who have come to sign up for the spring exam recently." Chen Xi doesn't care about this kind of thing. "But the family is really busy. So many people have signed up. Speaking of Zhong Yu
, does anyone in your Xun family know about water conservancy?"
"Isn't there someone in your family who has signed up? Besides, if you don't understand, you can learn. If you don't understand, you can find someone who understands for help. There are so many people in the Xun family, maybe there is someone who understands." Xun Yue said without caring, he kept looking open.
Anyway, other people can hang out, so naturally their family can do it too.
As for the fact that because he is an official and the one who sets the questions, his own family members cannot participate in the competition, Xun Yue will not do it. It has always been the habit of the Xun family to recommend talents and not avoid relatives. Their family likes to recommend some of their own relatives and friends.
"That's true. I just don't know whose family the flower will go to this time." Chen Xi nodded and didn't take it to heart. "Speaking of which, Mr. Xuande will get married in a few days. What gifts are you planning to give?"
"Forget about sending a congratulatory message, I don't see anything Xuande likes." Lu Su replied casually, "Zichuan, what are you planning to send?"
"I'm thinking about it," Chen Xi said helplessly, "But our previous list seems to have caused a big stir. It seems that Mr. Xuande wants to say something to me."
"Because it is a fiefdom, not a simple feudal lord or a settlement, and it has not been reported to the emperor. Naturally, the people who follow the etiquette of Xuande Gong want to say something to you." Xun Yue said with a slight dissatisfaction, having given Chen Xi instructions before.
, but Chen Xi didn't care about it at all.
"The land I am enfeoffing is not the land of the Han Dynasty. I am just helping him conquer it. Besides, I also said on the list that a seventy-mile fiefdom can be granted." Chen Xi said angrily.
"Everything in the world is not the king's land, and the shores of the land are not the king's ministers." Man Chong, who had been listening but rarely made any remarks, suddenly said something.
"Huh?" Li You sneered and said nothing, simply ending the possible debate.
"Is there any article in the Han Code that does not allow us to enfeoff, or in other words, which article does not allow us to enfeoff." Chen Xi immediately added, although he did not have an in-depth study of the Han Code, but there is a provision in the Han Code that is not written into the Han Code.
The law is not the law.
"You must have the surname Liu to be king!" Man Chong said to Chen Xi with a darkened face.
"I don't remember Zichuan saying that he wanted to be crowned king." Jia Xu took out his ears and said, "If I remember correctly, it was just Hou, right? Zichuan, I remember correctly."
"Hmm, actually, he is not a marquis, but an earl with an ancient title. Look at such a great achievement. In the end, the country gave a marquis, with a settlement of 1,200 households, and a fief of 70 miles of land. It can only be achieved outside.
He is called Earl, and is respected as Hou in China." Chen Xi echoed unceremoniously, as if everyone was shouting for the future water conservancy.
Man Chong didn't even know what to say now. He just felt that these two guys were too unscrupulous, but there was no point in finding fault. Han law really didn't stipulate what Chen Xi and Jia Xu said.
And there seems to be no special record about the fiefdom, only the king does not allow it.
[Does this mean that by being granted the title of Marquis, you can create a country thousands of miles away by showing off your face?] Xun Yue thought more deeply, [In this case, the titles will be divided into two sets, and those in the country will basically be virtual titles.
Overseas, if you ask someone not to inherit, they will not inherit?】
[In this case, the domestic title will become the glory of a lifetime, and the foreign title will become the family fortune of a hundred generations. Zichuan has indeed put a lot of thought into getting rid of the domestic aristocratic families.] Lu Su thought silently.
Although Lu Su had always felt that Chen Xi had no good intentions in getting the aristocratic family out, it was really not easy to get the aristocratic family out with such efforts.
[This guy started testing the idea of the aristocratic family so early. No aristocratic family can refuse such a thing as a fiefdom.] Jia Xu also thought of it divinely.
"But having said that, if someone can really build to this level and have great achievements, even if there is no military merit, the position of a mere prince is really not enough. Such achievements should break the soil and seal the country. As for the king, he is really just a
Title." Li You said with a light expression. He now sees clearly that King is just a false name.
"I think so too. After all, the world is so big, it is much better to give it to your own people than to have it taken away by others." Chen Xi said in agreement, "Rather than leaving it to outsiders, it is better to let the meat rot in the pot."
When he heard this, Jia Xu was slightly startled, and then a strange color flashed in his eyes. After a long time, he turned to look at Chen Xi, his eyes filled with shock.
[Probably only such courage can give birth to such talent and learning. The height is always determined by vision. Will the meat rot in the pot? This is Zichuan's purpose!] Jia Xu silently withdrew his eyes, [Can you participate in this era?
It’s really great.]
"Alas~" Man Chong's originally slightly darkened face suddenly softened, "You all have good ideas, and all the laws have indeed been bypassed, but you have ignored one person. The law is ruthless, but people have feelings.
, and once you have feelings, there will be love and hate, both near and far."
Chen Xi looked at Man Chong with confusion, completely unable to understand what this guy was talking about.
"What he means is that we have ignored the emperor's feelings. Although these things do not violate the laws and etiquette, killing first and reporting later is considered a violation of the emperor's authority. The former Han Tiaohou used a general order to deny the emperor entry at Xiliu Camp, even though the emperor said he was ruling
Jun Youdu, but actually he has been holding a grudge since then." Jia Xu replied calmly.
"Close the door, close the door, and kill anyone who eavesdrops." Chen Xi greeted outside the door, and soon a team of city management troops secured the door and stationed themselves around.
The doors and windows were closed, and linen and woolen blankets were hung layer by layer outside the door. The government affairs hall suddenly became dark, and then Chen Xi inserted his hands and propped up his head.
"Bo Ning, don't you understand what our purpose is?" Chen Xi turned to look at Man Chong with a strange look on his face.
"I don't think it's time to break up now," Man Chong replied stiffly.
"It's not a shame. I made it clear when I submitted the letter, it is 'awardable'." Chen Xi shamelessly played a word game, "Besides, we have been on the sidelines so many times. We don't know what the emperor's personality is like.
We all know that although we are indeed smart, we really don’t know what we should do.”
"You are just exposing us by doing this." Man Chong frowned.
"Wen Ru, tell me, if our current behavior is based on the situation I reported to the emperor before, how will the emperor handle it?" Chen Xi raised his eyebrows and turned to look at Li You and asked, what is Liu Xie like? Just ask Li You.
How can we say that Liu Xie's ascension to the throne was also due to Li You's "contribution".
