Eight hundred and twentieth seventh chapter innocent family
"Master Chen, Master Zeng, are you leaving now, why don't you come with us?"
Li Yi held two skewers of chicken wings in his hand. When Chen Chong and Zeng Shichun walked by, he raised his hand and asked.
"How dare you trouble Li County Marquis to cook in person? Resign, resign..."
Even when they were addressing His Majesty just now, they swallowed a lot of saliva because of the smell of meat that came from time to time. Zeng Shichun and Chen Chong still clasped their fists in fear and left quickly.
Just kidding, His Majesty just wanted a bunch of chicken wings, but he sternly refused without giving in. If the two of them dared to reach out now, what would His Majesty think?
"hypocritical……"
Li Yi glanced at the two people who were fleeing. How could they dare to bother? It was as if they had never bothered. They were doing one thing in front of themselves and another in front of the old emperor. They are two hypocritical guys...
"If you don't want to feed them, come on, you two, one for each." Ignoring the old emperor's eyes watching from a distance, Li Yi gave two skewers of chicken wings to Yongning and Tsundere Loli.
"Thank you, sir..." Tsundere Loli said reservedly, and then kissed him gently on the face.
Li Yi had already put the other two skewers on the fire to roast, and when he saw this, he turned his head to the side, "Hey, hey, I just ate something, my mouth is full of oil..."
"I'm going to wipe it with Mr...." Tsundere Loli took out a small handkerchief, ran over and dipped it in water, and then ran back quickly...
"Huh!" Emperor Jing, who was lying on the rocking chair, let out a thick nasal sound, then turned his head, peeled a grape and threw it into his mouth, murmuring: "It's amazing, it's amazing..."
"Why is your Majesty so surprised?" Changde lowered his head and asked.
Emperor Jing was surprised and said: "Chen Chong is capable, but he usually stands firmly on the side of the King of Shu and the Cui family. When things are not good for them, he always avoids the important and takes the easy. What is going on today? The clans and clans in various places are in rebellion, and behind the scenes
I am afraid that the Cui family is adding fuel to the flames, but today he is rarely so fair and without any bias, do you think this is strange?"
"As an important minister of the imperial court, it is your duty to uphold justice and not be biased. Why would your Majesty say this..."
Emperor Jing snorted coldly and said, "I'm afraid most of the people in the court don't think as clearly as you..."
Peeling a grape again, he said: "Speaking of which, these powerful clans have joined forces to cause chaos this time, and the preparation for the establishment of the academy has encountered great obstacles at the local level. After all, Kyoto is too far away, and the government decrees have been reduced... Go and get it."
Li Yi called."
Li Yi handed over the important task of barbecue to Li Han, then washed his hands, walked over, saw Emperor Jing eating grapes one by one, nodded and said: "Grape fermented grapes and grapes, there is a word difference, not too different."
"It's not advisable for Your Majesty to drink more. It's better to eat more grapes..."
After saying that, he stretched out his hand to take the grapes thrown by Emperor Jing. Not to mention, these tribute grapes were indeed much sweeter than those outside.
Emperor Jing looked at him and asked: "The clans and clans from all over the country have become one and the same now. You want Mingzhu to re-edit the Clan Chronicle. According to this method, the status of all the old clans and clans will be different from the past. Wouldn't it cause them to
A bigger backlash?”
"I didn't tell you everything." Li Yi ate another grape and said, "Like the Zhang family in Pingyang, the Wei family in Yunzhou, the Gou family in Tongzhou..."
He called a few names and said, "These are all good and innocent people. Of course, they must be treated differently."
"Pingyang Zhang family, Yunzhou Wei family, Tongzhou Gou family..." Emperor Jing frowned and asked, "Where are these people..."
Before he finished speaking, he closed his mouth again, with a thoughtful look on his face. After a moment, he nodded and said: "Yes, these are innocent and good families. The court will give special treatment, even if no one in the family is in court to do anything for them."
The position of the official in the clan annals should also be mentioned a little further."
"Go and continue your work, leave me two bunches of wings..." Emperor Jing waved his hand, then turned around and ordered: "Someone, squeeze these grapes into juice for me!"
…
Outside Furong Garden, Chen Chong and Zeng Shichun did not separate, but got into the same carriage.
Chen Chong frowned and said: "His Majesty just said that he would re-edit the "Chronicles of the Clan". I don't know how much trouble it will cause..."
Zeng Shichun shook his head: "This matter is not trivial. Once the Clan Chronicle is rewritten, the selection of officials in the imperial court, the marriages between noble families, and the prestige of powerful clans among the people will all change. It can be said that these clans will be fundamentally affected."
I am afraid it will not be easy for Your Majesty to use the status of the wealthy family to suppress the old gentry."
"In recent days, the Cui family has been instigating behind the scenes, and those people finally couldn't sit still." Chen Chong looked outside and said: "Your Majesty is planning to build an academy and is determined to support the poor people. It is reasonable to suppress them.
among.”
"It's just that in the past few decades, there has been an unprecedented unity among these old clans and clans. Your Majesty's move may not go smoothly. What's more, their reputation among the people is so high that it cannot be achieved by just a "Clan Chronicle"
It is still unknown whether what can be destroyed will be recognized by everyone after being re-edited."
Zeng Shichun shook his head and said: "Compared with prestige, how can they compare to the eldest princess? If Her Royal Highness the Princess is in charge of politics at this moment, who among the people will be dissatisfied?"
Chen Chong was immediately speechless.
In the past two years, the eldest princess has really done too many great things that have benefited the country and the people. If not, His Majesty would not have abandoned all the princes and asked her to supervise the country on his behalf.
It is precisely because the government decrees she implements are very close to people's livelihood. In terms of prestige and reputation among the people, even His Majesty is probably not as good as Her Royal Highness the Princess. Because of the Princess, a family in trouble has been changed, and she is regarded as a living Bodhisattva.
An immortal tablet was offered to her at home...
Chen Chong suddenly thought of something and asked, "Tell me, what kind of thoughts does Li Yi have?"
Zeng Shichun looked at him and asked, "What do you mean?"
"You saw just now that he has an unprecedented level of holy love. He has no relationship with His Majesty as a monarch or a minister..." Chen Chong said with a look of confusion on his face: "With his ability and power, no matter what he chooses to do,
No matter which prince he supports, the chance of the King of Shu ascending to the throne is very slim, but he did not agree to the solicitation of any prince, but..."
"On the contrary, it is Her Highness the Princess who has always been supporting?"
Seeing Chen Chong nodding, Zeng Shichun thought for a while and said, "Perhaps he himself has realized that no matter what position he is in and what status he has in His Majesty's heart, if he participates in the battle for the right to inherit the throne, it will definitely arouse His Majesty's dissatisfaction
, In this way, I am showing my attitude and position."
Chen Chong frowned and said, "You mean, the two are not helping each other, indirectly showing His Majesty that he will not participate in the seizure of the heir?"
"Otherwise?" Zeng Shichun looked at him and asked, "Does Mr. Chen think that he wants to support a queen?"
"This..., of course is impossible." Chen Chong shook his head.
However, he hesitated for a moment longer than the last time he answered this question.
…
"It's ridiculous, it's ridiculous. "The Chronicles of the Clan" is based on genealogical traditions to divide families. How can it be easily revised!"
"Don't get excited, Mr. Zhang." A middle-aged man supported the angry old man and said, "This move by the court ignores etiquette and subverts tradition. It will definitely not be recognized by the world. Don't worry, Mr. Zhang.
"
The old man looked at him and said disdainfully: "Of course you don't have to worry. There are still officials in the Zheng family in the court. Even if they are demoted, they won't be demoted much. I, the Zhang family in Pingyang, have been demoted by two levels!"
The middle-aged man heard this, thought about it, and stopped talking.
The elder of the Zhang family in Pingyang is right. The Zheng family is not like the Zhang family. There are still officials in the Zheng family in the court. Even if the "Clan Chronicle" is reorganized, the position of the Zheng family will not change much.
.
As for the Zhang family, who has no one in the government or the public, who cares?
"How can this be true? How can there be no such logic? If this is the case, how can ethics and education exist?" Another person slammed the table angrily.
The person next to him looked equally gloomy, "The distinction between family status has existed since ancient times. How can we just change it?"
Like the Zhang family in Pingyang, the Wei family in Yunzhou and the Gou family in Tongzhou are also the two parties whose interests have been greatly harmed during the compilation of "Clan Chronicles".
After Wei Fang and Gou Xu finished speaking, the hall became more and more excited, but there was no way of knowing what everyone was thinking.
Although there are many families like the Zhang family, the Wei family and the Gou family that were damaged in this incident, there are also some families whose status has not been damaged but has been improved due to various reasons.
It will have higher prestige and greater fame...
This is a good thing. After expressing deep sympathy for the Zhang family and the Wei family today, when I return to my family, I still have to celebrate what should be celebrated...
