There is indeed some worry, but His Majesty Li Er is more happy.
Fang Jun had used this trick before, and he had vaguely seen its benefits, but he didn't think about it deeply, so he kept it vague and did not pierce this layer of window paper.
Now that Fang Jun suddenly brought it up, His Majesty Li Er suddenly became enlightened.
Fortunately, I was still working so hard to suppress the family, and I couldn't sleep at night, but I forgot that my old friend had already put in place the method to destroy and disperse a huge group based on blood ties...
Tweet the grace order!
Since the two generations of Emperor Wen and Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty in the Western Han Dynasty, how to limit and weaken the growing power of princes and kings has been a serious problem faced by the emperor. During the reign of Emperor Wen, Jia Yi, in view of the rebellion of the King of Huainan and the King of Jibei, once proposed "Public Construction"
Emperor Wen accepted this suggestion to a certain extent, but did not completely solve the problem.
After Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty came to the throne, he adopted Chao Cuo's suggestion to reduce the vassal state. As a result, the seven kingdoms of Wu and Chu rebelled against each other with armed rebellion.
Emperor Jing quickly put down the rebellion and took a series of corresponding measures, which greatly weakened the power of the princes and kings. However, in the early years of Emperor Wu, some big countries were still connected to dozens of cities and thousands of miles apart. Moreover, the princes and kings were arrogant and extravagant, and often disobeyed the central government's orders.
, seriously threatening the consolidation of centralized power.
The master's father, Yan, wrote to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, suggesting that the princes should be entrusted with personal favors and ennoble their children as princes. This was the implementation of the "order of favor extension".
Many of the vassal kings' subordinates were granted the title of lords, and many kingdoms were divided into several vassal states. According to the Han system, vassal states were subordinate to counties and had the same status as counties. Therefore, kingdoms with large fiefdoms were divided into smaller fiefdoms.
This process directly led to the shrinking of the kingdom and the expansion of the land under the direct jurisdiction of the court. In this way, the Han court did not need to denounce the princes and kings, which caused the large kingdom to fall apart.
After that, the territory under the jurisdiction of the princes was only a few counties, which completely solved the problem of excessive fiefdom in the kingdom.
The "Tweeting Order" was a great success.
Naturally, aristocratic families are different from feudal states, but their nature is basically similar. Giving the second sons and concubines a future will increase their ambitions and no longer be fettered by the family, or cause conflicts within the family, which will severely damage the momentum of the aristocratic family and lead to selfishness.
The more outstanding talents there are, the stronger the family will be, right?
Absolutely not.
The prosperity of a family, in addition to outstanding children, is more important than unity! Except for the eldest son, everyone in the family knows that they will not obtain the family's political resources and will always be just a vassal of the family, even if they join the court as an official
, it also depends on the family. You may not invest much in yourself, but when necessary, you will be abandoned anytime and anywhere.
If you want to live a good life, you must stay close to your eldest son and help him wholeheartedly.
And once these second sons and bastards realize that they can have a better future, even if they separate the family and live a separate life, they can still develop their ambitions, who will be willing to rely on them and work hard for the eldest son?
Every second son or concubine who leaves the family and leads a new life will inevitably weaken the family's power...
Fang Jun smiled and disagreed: "Although this method is cruel, it is a blunt knife cutting flesh. Although the family members can see the worries about the future, they may not be able to be cruel."
In fact, the so-called "favor order" is not the best weapon to weaken the family members. The best way is to amend the law and change the inheritance system!
From ancient times to the present, Han Chinese society has implemented the "ancestral inheritance" system. In order to protect private property from being dispersed and pass it on from generation to generation, after the death of an emperor or noble, his power, land and other properties are inherited by his eldest son.
This inheritance system centered on the inheritance of the eldest son is called ancestral inheritance.
Ancestral inheritance is the product of the patriarchal social system. The eldest son is the main heir. A son will establish an eldest son, and a son will establish an heir. This has become the law of the past dynasties. The second son and concubine can only receive part of the land and property, but cannot inherit the power.
If the law is changed so that all heirs have the right to inherit as in later generations, the so-called aristocratic families and the foundation accumulated for thousands of years will fall apart and disappear overnight...
If Fang Jun made this suggestion, he might be assassinated by assassins sent by the family members.
This is equivalent to directly determining the foundation on which the family is maintained and passed down from generation to generation, that is, enemies of life and death, and no matter how extreme things are, they can do it.
Of course, this method will never be passed.
Not to mention that once it is proposed, it will attract opposition from the entire world. Even the emperor will not be able to pass this test...
What's the matter, do you want my country to be divided into ten or twenty pieces, and each son inherit a piece of land?
The desire to divide the empire can be punished and beheaded!
…
In the afternoon, Fang Jun came to the academy and called Xu Jingzong and Chu Suiliang over.
As for Li Jing, Kong Yingda and others, their status is too transcendent and their qualifications are too deep. They have no intention of fighting for power in the academy. They just hold on to their original intention and hope to cultivate more outstanding talents for the empire, unless Fang Junhui needs to "gather up the numbers"
Grab these people and don't disturb them until you have free time.
When Chu Suiliang and Xu Jingzong arrived, Fang Jun looked at Chu Suiliang with a look of dissatisfaction and said: "To stir up trouble and talk, it is not the actions of Guangfeng Jiyue, we despise it!"
Chu Suiliang was confused and had no idea what Fang Jun was referring to.
Fang Jun said angrily: "Bring me yesterday's list!"
Only then did Chu Suiliang understand that it seemed that someone had gone to the emperor and told him that the emperor had put pressure on Fang Jun, but Fang Jun thought it was him...
Chu Suiliang didn't care about taking the blame. He only cared about whether the list could be approved by the academy. Last night, several Guanlong disciples came to the mansion to inquire. He didn't know how to answer. Once they knew about it,
All the names on my list have been rejected, and I can't imagine whether the furious Guanlong disciples would set their own house on fire.
He quickly took out the messy lists. These lists had become his obsession, and the future of the rest of his life was entrusted to them. He hugged them all night, and almost burst into tears...
Xu Jingzong also understood that it seemed that the emperor had put pressure on Fang Jun to pass Chu Suiliang's list, and he couldn't help feeling resentful.
He thought he could use Fang Jun's hand to suppress Chu Suiliang severely and make the nobles of Guanlong realize that I, Xu Jingzong, was more worthy of their praise. Who knew that in the blink of an eye, Chu Suiliang could convince the emperor,
Making Fang Jun pass this list.
It is conceivable that from then on, Chu Suiliang would be increasingly appreciated by the Guanlong nobles and become a candidate vigorously cultivated by the Guanlong nobles.
And if he wants to continue to make a difference in the court, he can only completely give up his illusions about the Guanlong nobles, follow Fang Jun honestly, work hard in front of and behind the horse, and use his channel to enter the camp of His Highness the Crown Prince.
…
Fang Jun took the list, picked up the brush, dipped it in ink, and sketched on it. After a while, he put the brush on the pen holder, threw the list to Chu Suiliang, and said calmly: "As you wish, take it, like a
As a slave, just go and ask for credit from your masters!"
Several lists landed lightly on the desk, but they hit Chu Suiliang's heart like a sledgehammer, making him extremely angry and furious!
"You can kill people with just a nod of your head, how can your consort humiliate me like this?!"
Chu Suiliang's face was blood red, his eyes almost popped out, and he glared at Fang Jun angrily.
If it weren't for the fact that the gap in combat power between the two sides was really too big, Bao Qi would have rushed forward to fight Fang Jun at this moment...
Even though he was attached to the Guanlong nobles, Chu Suiliang was still a scholar at heart and had the character of a scholar. Helping the Guanlong nobles in doing things was just a trade-off. Anyway, he had to take sides in the court, either the Guanlong nobles or Jiangnan.
Aristocratic families, or Shandong sects, have to take whose bowl and eat their food, so naturally they have to seek benefits for whom. What’s wrong with that?
You, Fang Jun, are not the hawks and minions around the prince, trying your best to advise the prince and charge into battle?
Why is it that you yourself are so glorious, but when you come to me, you are so shameless and begging for mercy?
This is simply unreasonable!
Xu Jingzong was also secretly speechless.
The ultimate reputation of a literati is that once this word spreads, outsiders will not understand what is going on inside and will just follow what others say and follow the rumors. Chu Suiliang's reputation will be completely ruined.
This is more serious than killing Chu Suiliang...
Fang Jun endured Chu Suiliang's anger and looked back calmly: "If Chu Siye doesn't leave, do you believe I will take back this list immediately?"
Chu Suiliang was extremely angry, but he did not dare to challenge Fang Jun.
If you really pissed off this stick, snatched away the list, and still refused to let the Guanlong disciples enter the academy, then you would have to walk around in pain.
He was incapable of overpowering Fang Fang Jun. The noble Guan Long used his strength to convince His Majesty Li Er, but the list was scrapped due to his own fault. Fang Jun strongly resisted... Then wouldn't he be someone who "succeeded enough but failed more than failed"?
waste?
Taking a deep breath, Chu Suiliang knew that today he could only knock out his teeth and swallow blood. He had to endure this breath. He nodded with hatred and said: "Very good. I just hope that the consort can remember what he said today and be able to do his best at any time."
Feng Jiyue..."
He was talking about the situation and found a place to go down the stairs. He glanced at the list subconsciously and was stunned.
"This, this, this..."
More than half of the names on the list were crossed out. After a closer look, almost all the eldest sons of the aristocratic families were crossed out, leaving only some second sons, concubines, and even distant descendants...
Chu Suiliang was shocked and angry, how could this be done?!
