Emperor Zhenguan

Chapter 547 The major factions of the family in the world [Thanks to Fax Kite for the reward]

Changan.

As the plague in Luozhou was gradually suppressed, some people's minds became active again.

Tai Chi Temple.

"Your Majesty, I believe that Cen Wenwen's poor management of Luozhou led to the outbreak of the plague and the loss of life. The crime is unforgivable. He should be taken back to Chang'an for interrogation immediately." This was a speech by a minister who was close to Pei Ju.

As if it was a signal, many officials soon stood up and demanded that Cen Wenwen be punished.

The officials of the other factions watched on coldly, because Cen Wenwen was not one of them and had no conflict of interest with them, so there was no need to fight the officials of the Shandong faction because of Cen Wenwen.

Du Ruhui and others spoke up to defend Cen Wenwen.

The courtiers who were also members of the emperor's team, although there was internal competition, could still maintain a certain degree of unity when facing courtiers from other factions.

In fact, from a general geographical point of view, the courtiers in the officialdom of the Tang Dynasty can be divided into three categories.

One is the Guanlong line, the other is the Shandong line, and the third is the South line.In addition, there are some miscellaneous fish systems.

The miscellaneous fish system is mainly a small family with corners and corners.Some of these small aristocratic families were forcibly relocated by the imperial court.For example, the aristocratic families in Liangzhou.

In addition to these three categories, there is also an imperial line with Emperor Li Zhiyun as the core.

The imperial lineage has more involvement and complex components, and there are quite a few people from the three major lines.For example, Du Ruhui, who was born in the Jingzhao Du clan, belonged to the Guanlong lineage, but he himself was a loyal minister of the emperor, a real imperial lineage.

It can be said that the imperial line is a fusion of courtiers from all factions.

However, the imperial line was separated from other lines because it only safeguarded the interests of the emperor, and the two sides were basically invincible.

And within the imperial family, there is also competition.

In addition, Xue Shou was born in the Xue family in Hedong, belonging to the Shandong family, and he was also a minister of the imperial family who safeguarded the interests of the emperor.

In addition, apart from the fact that the relationship between Guanlong and Guanlong is barely twisted together, the split is not obvious.The rest of the Shandong and Southern factions are actually very divided.

In Shandong, there are Wenxi Pei, Taiyuan Wang, Xingyang Zheng, Hedong Liu, Hedong Xue, Taiyuan Wen, Taiyuan Guo, and even Fanyang Lu, Bohai Gao, Qinghe Cui, and Boling Choi and so on.

Among them, there are Bingzhou families, such as Wenxi Pei, Taiyuan Wang, Hedong Xue and so on.

There are also aristocratic families from Hebei, such as the Lu family of Fan Yang and the Gao family of Bohai.

There are also aristocratic families from the Central Plains, such as the Zheng family in Xingyang, the Yang family in Hongnong and so on.

The ingredients are very complex.To some extent, the Shandong family can also be called the northern family.

There are many famous families in Shandong, and the division is the most obvious.

The southern faction is currently weak, because Xiao Yu was dismissed from the position of Prime Minister because of his involvement in King Qi's rebellion. The southern faction lost its backbone in the court and is currently in a dormant state.

At the same time, there are actually Bashu, Jiangzuo, Jiangyou and so on.

In terms of internal fighting, the southern faction is stronger than the northern one.

At the time of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the north was smashed, and the southern family was still fighting in the nest, and they didn't take the opportunity to capture the Central Plains. One can imagine how strong the southern family was.

Of course, the forced division does not mean that any one of these three departments is really possible to merge and unify.Although the families of the Shandong family often marry each other, once the interests of their own families are involved, there are not a few who betray each other.

Only the Guanlong relationship has been twisted into one rope in the true sense, and the dynasties have changed several times.The other two families basically accepted the unification passively.

Many aristocratic families scoffed at the saying of five surnames and seven wangs in private.

Therefore, these families can only be divided into factions and distinguished in an academic sense.

If these three departments are really twisted together, Li Zhiyun feels that he may have to kill someone with a knife.

Just like now, Pei Ju, Yang Gongren, Chen Shuda, Li Shuliang, Du Ruhui, Xue Shou, the six ministers of the political affairs hall are actually checks and balances in various senses.

Pei Ju was born in Wenxi Pei's Bingzhou family, and Yang Gongren was from the Central Plains family of Hongnong Yang's family, which always belonged to the Shandong family.Xue Shou belonged to Shandong-Bingzhou family.

Chen Shuda belongs to the Southern Department, and he is a descendant of the Southern Chen royal family.

Du Ruhui is related to Guanlong.

Li Shuliang belongs to the royal family, strictly speaking, the Li family of the royal family is also related to Guanlong.

In terms of three categories.

Pei Ju, Yang Gongren, and Xue Shou represent the Shandong faction.

Du Ruhui represents the Guanlong relationship.

Chen Shuda represents the Southern Department.

Li Shuliang represents the royal family.

It is not difficult to see that the Shandong department has the upper hand.This is also the policy of the first emperor to Li Zhiyun, using the Shandong faction to suppress the Guanlong faction.

differentiate in another form.

Li Shuliang, Chen Shuda, Pei Ju, and Yang Gongren are all prime ministers left by the late emperors.

Du Ruhui and Xue Shou belonged to the newly promoted noble lineage, ministers of the imperial lineage.

The third type is narrow geographical division.

This is how the divisions within the major departments have arisen.

For example, Pei Ju, on the surface, seems to be the leader of the Bingzhou family in the court.But in fact, Wang Gui from the Wang family in Taiyuan, Wen Yanbo from the Wen family in Taiyuan, and others had no intention of joining forces with Pei Ju at all.

Not to mention Xue Shou from the imperial family.

It is precisely because of the division of the various departments within the aristocratic family that the court is maintained in a state of balance.This is also the reason why Li Zhiyun chose small-scale precise surgery when he knew that Pei Ju had framed Cen Wenwen.

Because, once Pei Ju is moved, at a large level, the strength of the Shandong faction is damaged, and the Guanlong faction will inevitably take action.

On a small level, when Pei Ju is finished, the Shandong faction will inevitably fight with each other.Then things can get complicated.

You have to know, it's not that Li Zhiyun doesn't want to see the family fight each other, but that they can't be allowed to fight each other now.

In the early years of Zhenguan, natural disasters followed one after another. If the courtiers of the Shandong clan fought back and forth, who would lose?

One, the emperor.

Second, the people.

In this era when knowledge is mastered by aristocratic families, the courtiers of local states and counties are either born in aristocratic families or are students of aristocratic families. It is difficult to sort out how complicated the relationship is.

Once the Shandong faction internally fights and natural disasters are added, the ministers of the Shandong faction who are really fighting will casually signal the subordinates to cause a little trouble for the ministers of the other side, and the losses of the court will increase exponentially.

And the common people will suffer even more.

If it weren't for natural disasters, he would have provoked the family to fight, and then he would reap the benefits of the fisherman.

But not now, we have to wait for several years of natural disasters to pass.

Seeing Pei Ju's attack, Li Zhiyun knew that he had to use a scalpel.

It is inevitable to kill Pei Ju, and it is also inevitable to keep the Zheng family.Because, they must be used to suppress Guanlong relations.

The main contradiction and the secondary contradiction must be distinguished.

At this stage, the strength of the Guanlong relationship is still as strong as ever.

Whether it is accurate or not is the difference between slaughter and surgery.To deal with aristocratic families, slaughter can be done, but not now.If it was a prosperous age, the Zheng family in Xingyang would not be able to escape the catastrophe by bleeding this time. If they didn't kill a group of Zheng families, exile a group, and separate a group, Li Zhiyun would not let it go.

Surgery is available all the time.What he, the emperor, has to do is to constantly scrape off the cancerous tumors on the giant 'Datang'.

Concretely, now on the giant of Tang Dynasty, a septic tumor named 'Pei Ju' grows on a tumor named 'Wenxi Pei', which makes Datang a little painful and disgusting.

For the sake of the body, this festering 'Pei Ju' tumor must be removed.As for the malignant tumor called 'Xingyang Zheng's', considering the health of his body, he could only temporarily squeeze out some pus and apply some plaster.

This was done because a cancerous tumor called 'Guanlong Family' grew around the heart of the giant of the Tang Dynasty.

He had to operate carefully to prevent the 'Guanlong Family' cancer from developing.

If you want to cure it, you have to think long-term, and you must not act too hastily.Because, the last person who couldn't stand the pain, directly picked up the tumor, and then died of pain was called Yang Guang.

Fully absorbing the lessons of the predecessors, slowly treating is the kingly way.
