"Asshole! Even I have to open up my voice and be brave enough to accept advice. How can I slander you just because of unfavorable words? You and Xu Jingzong have a history of being dirty. I naturally know it, but how can I just arbitrarily accuse you of it?
If things go on like this, the way of speech will be blocked. Do you want me to become blind and deaf, completely unaware of the world's affairs?"
His Majesty Li Er was furious.
Simply ridiculous!
Even if you don't accept Xu Jingzong's impeachment, you can just quibble with the wording, but you actually bite back and say that he is a rebellious minister and traitor, and everyone can punish him?
Do you think I am old and confused?
Wang De on the side looked at his nose and heart, sighing in his heart, thinking that Fang Er had always been shrewd, and he had clearly sent someone to inform him of the situation here. He only needed to explain it, and the emperor would naturally put it down gently and did not say anything to him.
There is no anger in this matter. But after being so messed up now, I am afraid that the emperor will change his original intention, and a punishment will be inevitable...
Why bother?
Fang Jun seemed unaware of the emperor's anger and said to himself: "May I ask Your Majesty, are the remaining sons of noble families in this dynasty all ostentatious and frivolous?"
His Majesty Li Er frowned, wondering why he asked this question. He thought for a moment and said, "That's not entirely true. Although some of the remaining sons are naughty by nature and rely on the shadow of their ancestors to do whatever they want, there are still some people with lofty ideals among them."
"Your Majesty's Holy Ming... Li Siwen, Cheng Chubi, Qin Yingdao and others have known each other since childhood and have become brothers and sisters. Therefore, Weichen knows very well that they are human beings. They all have great ambitions and want to make contributions, but they have to stay away because of their status.
If the center of the family is idle, not only will it not be supported, but it will be deliberately suppressed..."
After hearing this, His Majesty Li Er remained silent.
The fact is that no matter whether it is a noble family or a general with military honors, the future family property and title will always be inherited by the eldest son. The concubine, the second son and other remaining sons will not have any political inheritance except for some property.
In the event of an inheritance or accident, not only will the family not receive support, but the outstanding Yuzi will be suppressed due to fear of future problems such as the strength of the Yuzi, weak stems and strong branches, etc.
A large aristocratic family can only have one core and one pillar, and it is absolutely forbidden to allow divisions within the family to occur.
Except for a few outstanding and talented people, the vast majority of the remaining children only need to eat, drink, have fun and wait for death... On the contrary, those cousins and side children often receive more support because they do not have to worry about heirs.
.
Fang Jun saluted and said: "Your Majesty clearly knows that those Yuzi who are ambitious but unable to reach their goals have received the best education since childhood and have been exposed to the influence of wealthy families. Their own talents and learning are superior to most of the children from poor families.
But because of those unwritten rules, I have to keep a low profile and tolerate it all my life. And among them, how many amazing and talented people are there who decay with the grass and trees, and share the dust with the light?"
His Majesty Li Er pondered and said: "Continue talking."
"Here! May I ask Your Majesty, do you still remember the order of grace?"
Relying on an order of favor, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty completely eliminated the hidden dangers of enlarging the country and brought the centralization of power to an unprecedented level. Only then did he integrate the resources of the whole country and create the great victory of Dragon City and the unparalleled achievement of sealing the wolf to Xu!
How could His Majesty Li Er not know?
“If you have something to say, say it quickly; if you have something to say, say it quickly!”
I don't know what kind of medicine Fang Jun sells in his gourd, but His Majesty Li Er subconsciously feels that he has stepped into the hole dug by Fang Jun. He is a little irritable and his words are inevitably unpleasant. He has no regard for the majesty of the emperor.
The king and his ministers were correct, but the emperor actually said bad words.
Fang Jun sweated...
"I know I'm wrong... The reason why aristocratic families can't lose their big ones is because the resources accumulated by their ancestors are passed down from generation to generation, and the firepower is passed down from generation to generation. But if His Majesty can issue an edict, allowing those aristocratic families not to suppress the remaining sons of the family, or even
In order to promote talents for the country and allow talented children in the family to study in the Imperial College, Hongwen Hall and other places, wouldn't it be possible for the court to gain many outstanding children from aristocratic families? And when these children from aristocratic families get ahead, they will definitely be grateful to Your Majesty.
Ende, be loyal to Your Majesty, and swear to defend the Tang Dynasty to the death!"
To abolish the "primogeniture system of inheritance" is something I would not dare to say even to death.
"To set up a direct descendant, it is not to be virtuous, to set up a son to be noble, not to be long-term." This is the most basic principle of the patriarchal system. It is the principle that the ancestors have followed for thousands of years, and it is the foundation of the royal family's rule. In this era
If this system is abolished, the world will be in chaos immediately!
But this system does restrict the development of society. The selection of talents is natural selection. Only with competition can you have fighting ability. You are born with a righteous status. You can inherit the family title without doing anything. Who will work hard?
What about studying and struggling with all your strength?
A society that has lost competition is a deformed society, destined to reap its consequences and be eliminated by the trend of the times!
If the remaining sons can have a goal to strive for, and the eldest sons can be aware of the danger, then the whole society will be filled with an atmosphere of competition, like a pack of wolves where the brave is king and the fittest survive, then that kind of society will be a society full of motivation.
.
Of course, Fang Jun was just talking. He came up with a shocking topic to confuse the audience and make the emperor downplay his signing of the transfer order. The purpose was achieved.
If he were really asked to say "nonsense" such as "all heirs share the right to inherit", he would not even dare to die...
Who is tired of living a crooked life and dares to be an enemy of the whole society and challenge universal values?!
His Majesty Li Er sighed, the Tui En Order is indeed a good thing, it can be applied to the clan, but it can never be applied to the aristocratic families. When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty accepted the suggestion of his father Yanzhi and implemented the Tui En Order, it was a situation where Confucianism was fully using it.
The subordinates were proud to implement it smoothly. Now if they implement the order of favor to the family members, it will be equivalent to digging up the foundation of Confucianism. I am afraid that if he issues the edict in the first step, the whole country will rebel in the second step, and the ministers will rush into the palace under the banner of "Qingjun side"
, first kill Fang Jun, the traitor, and then depose him, the foolish king...
But just expressing an attitude, so that the family members no longer suppress the remaining sons of the family, but provide a little support, will definitely allow the court to obtain a large number of talents out of thin air. Although this is somewhat contrary to the policy of suppressing the family members, it is of great benefit to the country.
It is beneficial.
The suppression and weakening of the family members is a long-term and slow process. If you go too far, it is not enough, otherwise you will suffer a strong rebound and the gain will not be worth the loss.
"Xue Wanche has already agreed to transfer these people to Youtun Guard?"
His Majesty Li Er was a little puzzled. Although he had heard from Baiqi Si that Fang Jun and Xue Wanche had become very close over the years, he still couldn't figure out why Xue Wanche was willing to take the risk of being jealous of the emperor and accept these aristocratic families.
Disciple...
Could it be that because of Danyang, some of the gangsters had a stubborn temper and insisted on showing resistance in this way?
Humph! How stupid!
"Exactly! General Xue himself is the fourth son of the family. He can neither inherit the family title nor receive much support from the family. The title and military achievements are all earned by himself through bloody battles on the battlefield, so he feels the same and is willing to give these
A chance for a playboy in the eyes of others."
"It's full of nonsense! You must have colluded with each other to deceive Xue Wanche. Otherwise, with his courage, how could he dare to do such a heinous thing?"
His Majesty Li Er's eyes were sharp and he told the truth in one word.
Fang Jun was sweating a little and hesitated: "This...that...your majesty is wise..."
"Hmph! If Xue Wanche dares to do this, I will definitely punish him. Otherwise, how will you remember this favor? Don't bully honest people! In addition, after the spring, there will be an expedition to the east, but the preparations of the college cannot be left behind. Don't always
The old guys like Kong Yingda are being chased around, but you are wandering around leisurely. Fortunately, Kong Yingda regards you as a nephew, not a son of a man!"
"Here!"
Fang Jun was too frightened to say another word.
"Okay, who are you showing me looking so scared? I'm annoyed by you, so get out of here!"
"Here!"
Fang Jun did not dare to neglect, saluted and bowed, then retreated three steps, turned around and left the Dragon Palace, and left quickly.
In the hall, His Majesty Li Er said solemnly: "Xue Wanche, this idiot, will probably have to help count the money after being sold. I'm so angry! Come here, catch this idiot quickly and punish him heavily to make him remember to do what he did."
The price for being a good guy is to remember to collect the reward from that bastard Fang Jun!"
…
In the evening, Xue Wanche was called into the palace by the emperor and was beaten with thirty military sticks. Xue Wanche was so angry that he yelled at Fang Jun that he was not a thing and actually used him, causing him to be beaten. However, this anger caused Fang Jun to come to the door in person with Jin Famin.
After pleading guilty and negotiating a slave deal, everything disappeared in an instant...
Although he received a beating for no apparent reason, he also got a fortune-making business for nothing. Who can make the calculation between gains and losses?
Anyway, Xue Wanche felt that the beating was worth it, Fang Erlang was quite interesting!
If there is such a good thing in the future, he is willing to be beaten again...
Even after hearing the details of the matter in the back house, Princess Danyang came to Xue Wanche's room in person, asked her maid to apply medicine for his wounds, and expressed her deepest condolences.
She used to look down on Xue Wanche, and was even more opposed to Xue Wanche being too close to Li Yuanjing. Now that she suddenly fell in love with Fang Jun, and got such a discovery deal, she felt that this fool seemed to have an idea, so naturally she would not hesitate to reward him.
A smiling face to reward him for finally understanding the current situation and choosing the right path and the right person...
