The Su family in Meishan is said to be after Su Weiwei, the governor of Meizhou in the Tang Dynasty, but at that time only the gentry had genealogy... The reason why the Cheng family is called "Jiang Qing" is because they have a family tree... The Su family has no genealogy, so there is no real evidence. That's it.
I was confused until Su Xun's generation. His brother Su Huanzhong became a Jinshi, and the entire Su family was honored. Later, when the old man Su Xu passed away and a monument was erected at his funeral, someone suggested that we complete the family tree.
]
This glorious and arduous task fell on Su Xun, who was recognized as the second most knowledgeable person in the family. After years of unremitting research, he finally clarified the origins of the nine generations of the Su family from Su Weiwei to Su Xu, allowing more than 300 households in Meishan to
The person named Su found his ancestor at once...
Don't underestimate this small genealogy, it can unite people of the same clan who are related by blood and form a clan. Sure enough, ever since they saw this genealogy, the people of the Su clan have a feeling of being connected by blood. They unanimously decided to
It is engraved on a stele and erected next to the ancestor's grave for descendants to pay their respects and worship.
In order to protect the family tree from wind and frost, the Su clan members also pooled money to build a genealogy pavilion. As for the task of engraving the stele, they left it to Su Xun, who is particularly good at this. Today is the day for the genealogy stele to be erected.
Nearly a thousand men gathered at the ancestral grave to celebrate this grand event.
Chen Ke and Song Duanping were also invited by Su Xun to watch the ceremony as guests. Naturally, they were not interested. Just out of politeness, they stood solemnly by the pavilion and watched the Su family, who was commanded by the master of ceremonies to do this.
Do that.
Song Duanping's eyes were straight, and his voice was like a mosquito chirping: "What do you think Old Man Su asked us to do?"
Chen Ke shook his head. He was also confused as a monk.
"I feel that his intentions are very serious." Song Duanping whispered: "On the way here, if you look at his whole person, he has a desperate posture."
"Yeah." Chen Ke nodded. He also felt that Su Xun was definitely going to make a bigger move.
While the two were talking, they both stopped talking when they saw Su Xun standing in front of the stele pavilion.
I saw Su Laoquan wearing a blue-black sacrificial robe today, scanning the crowd with a deep gaze, and said in a deafening voice: "My Su family has moved to Meishan for ten generations since our distant ancestors. In Meishan alone, there are no less than a thousand people with the surname Su.
However, there are no more than a hundred people who are close to each other, and we can't get together for joy every New Year. Those who are far apart don't even move around each other, so we have no way to show the village that we are from the same clan, and we are often bullied by the rich.
Therefore, I was entrusted by the clan elders to write this "Su Family Genealogy", set up a pavilion in the southwest of Gaozu's tomb, and carved a stone to commemorate it."
"The reason why I worked tirelessly to compile the genealogy is to tell the whole clan that blood is thicker than water and we are all one family! One family does not speak of two families. I hope that everyone here will, from now on, when the elderly in the family die,
If someone in the family gets married, everyone will go to the wedding. If there is a widower or widower in the ancestors, the rich people in the clan will take care of them. If a clan member is bullied, everyone will give their full support! If someone does not do this
If you do, the whole clan will spit on him!"
Su Xun's opening remarks were indeed so affectionate and righteous that they made the tribesmen burst into tears. Even Chen Ke thought that he was here to watch how a clan society was formed... Before this, people did not have the concept of clan.
, all lived in small family units, but looking at Su Xun's attitude, it seemed that it was the beginning of the era of large clans in later generations.
But when he heard, "If any clan member encounters bullying, everyone must support it", his expression couldn't help but be a little weird, this Su Laoquan wouldn't do it...
Sure enough, the preparation was completed and Su Xun's true purpose was exposed. He immediately changed the subject: "Why should we emphasize this? Because the customs in the village have been corrupted. I still remember that when I was a child, the villagers especially knew how to abandon evil and promote good.
The unjust person will be spurned by everyone, making it impossible for him to gain a foothold. But now? They regard those unjust acts as normal and live in peace with those unjust people. All of this is from someone in the village.
It started!”
All the clan members immediately looked at each other, who was Su Laoquan trying to scold?
Su Xun's voice suddenly rose and he said sternly: "This family belongs to a prominent family in the village known as 'Jiang Qing'. It is precisely because of this that he has greatly corrupted the atmosphere of the village, far beyond ordinary people!"
"Since then, people have not shown mercy to the orphans who have expelled their brothers, and the kindness of the brothers and sisters in the countryside has been unkind!"
"Since then, people have taken away the land donated by their ancestors and bullied their orphans. The practice of filial piety and brotherhood in the countryside has been lacking!"
"Since then, people have been told by their orphans, and the etiquette and justice in the village have been abolished!"
"From then on, people took their son's concubine and added it to his wife, and the concubines in the village did not mix with each other!"
"Since then, people have been serious about sex, but father and son have been lax in their affairs, and the government in the boudoir has been chaotic!"
"Since then, people have never tired of squandering wealth. Only the rich are virtuous, but the road to integrity is blocked!"
Chen Ke, Song Duanping, Su Shi brothers, and all the Su clan members present, their jaws were all shocked to the ground. Even a fool could tell who he was scolding, and he was scolding him so bloody!
Before he finished, Su Xun continued to criticize: "These six evil deeds are the unjust acts that everyone despised when I was young. But now some ignorant people say: What kind of person is he?
Of course, we can do it. But we don’t know that his carriages and horses are outstanding, and his maids and concubines are beautiful, enough to seduce the little people in the streets! His official title and wealth are enough to shake the county! His pretentious words are enough to deceive gentlemen, and he is actually the best in the state.
A big thief!"
After a pause, Su Xun finally softened his tone and said: "I don't dare to tell the people in the village, so I can only write it down in the Genealogy Pavilion, and privately warn my people not to be influenced by him, and secondly, let him hear about it himself.
My face is hot and I feel ashamed, I’m sweating and I can’t eat!”
What a great hatred. Not only was it a scolding, it also had to be engraved on a monument. Su Laoquan was so vicious and vicious that it really made people shudder.
'However, I like...' Chen Ke secretly praised, just like what Confucius taught us - repay evil with kindness, how to repay kindness? Repay hatred with straightness, repay kindness with kindness!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Back on Qingshen's ship, Su Xun cleared away the gloom, hugged a jar of wine, and laughed while drinking, as if he had done something extremely satisfying.
The four of them, Chen Ke, were sitting at the stern of the boat, talking quietly.
"I'm so cruel. You cursed Cheng Jun so much on the genealogy monument and pushed the Cheng family into a corner." Song Duanping raised his thumb and said, "Sure enough, ginger is still hotter!"
"More than being old-fashioned, he is simply vicious!" Chen Ke also said with conviction: "Uncle Su's move is better than my idea. It can be said that one move can determine the outcome!"
"..." The Su brothers are a little embarrassed. After all, it is a family scandal, and now their father has exposed it. Naturally, they cannot be as relaxed as Chen and Song, let alone easy to evaluate. But both brothers are extremely smart people.
Naturally, I knew that if my father made such a fuss, the situation would be completely reversed.
Su Xun's approach seems reckless, but it is the "strike first to gain the upper hand" in the art of war. Knowing that conflict is inevitable, I will seize your problem and make a big fuss about it before you make a move, so as to make the world happy and let everyone know the truth.
The conflict between the two families is well known to the world.
What's more, Cheng Jun is still a provincial cadre, so any subsequent legal conflict between the two families will inevitably attract public attention.
As long as everyone pays attention to it, things will be easier to handle. Because if the prefecture and county officials are partial, they will definitely be said to be 'officials protecting each other'. In other dynasties, this was not a big deal. But in the Song Dynasty, there was an exception.
Talking about the existence of the Grinding and Surveying Department, what about the Yushitai? Just talking about the setting of official positions in this dynasty will kill you.
I won’t go into details about the excellent official appointment system of the Song Dynasty. As long as you know, "Zhizhou" or "Zhixian" are not formal official titles, but a kind of "dispatch". The full names are "Zhizhou Shi" and "Zhixian Shi" respectively.
'. And his official might be the head of a certain yamen in the capital, a member of the bureau, or something like that, but he has never gone to work.
It's not that the adults deliberately absented themselves from work, it's that there were no seats for them there to begin with. Those who actually sat in their seats were from other yamen, and they were all 'sent' here.
Not to mention that outsiders are confused when they look at it, even the officials themselves don’t know which yamen they belong to.
It’s okay if you don’t know. This is Emperor Taizu’s mysterious imperial technique. You don’t need to know where you belong, as long as you know your ‘mission’, think of yourself as a brick of the Song Dynasty and move it wherever needed.
As for those officials who were not "dispatched", they unfortunately became one of the legendary "redundant officials". There were too many but useless officials, which is called "redundant". In the Song Dynasty, there were many but useless officials, accounting for almost half of the official team.
This has resulted in a situation where there are more wolves than meat, especially those sought-after official positions, which are coveted by several people, just waiting for the current leader to make mistakes so that he can take over his 'errand'.
There are no fixed-term errands, and there are so many people waiting to take over, so officials have to be careful and "keep everything in order and don't cause trouble", which has become the rule of office for most officials.
Therefore, once the matter gets serious, the government can only deal with it impartially, and any "routine" will be just a cloud...
And Su Xun shot the big-character poster of the Cheng family and engraved it on the genealogy monument, making it impossible for the Cheng family to wipe out the traces and eliminate the impact... Unless they smashed the Su family's genealogy monument, but that would be the same as
Digging up people's ancestral graves will make things even bigger.
Therefore, not only could the Cheng family not destroy this monument, they also had to send someone to guard it to prevent anyone from framing it.
But the Cheng family did not dare to sue Su Xun for defamation, because everything he accused was well-founded. If it were found out, the only one who would be embarrassed would be the Cheng family.
It's like two people fighting. No matter how strong you are, if I pinch your eggs, you won't be able to hold on to the curse at all.
It's a hot day and the fan blowing makes my eyelids red, swollen and itchy, which affects my ability to see. Please give me some advice on how to fix it.
Of course, the recommendation votes cannot be less...
