The strongest Luo Chengzhi swept the world

Chapter 696 Inspecting places (first update, please subscribe)
It is common practice to reward meritorious deeds.

This time Li Jing flattened Fusang, it was considered a great contribution, and Luo Cheng certainly would not treat him badly.

After the encouragement, Luo Cheng personally wrote a letter to ask for credit for Li Jing, and then awarded him in the court.Even Luo Yi appreciated his performance and was quite satisfied.

After all, Li Jing is only a young man in his 20s now, so he has such abilities. With more experience in the future, he will definitely be able to guard one side.With the development of the Great Summer, the demand for talents is also increasing.

Even though Luo Cheng took many measures and got many available people, it was obviously not enough for the world.Especially now that the world is a little more peaceful, the place needs to be properly arranged.

……

During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the most famous people in the world were the seven clans and five surnames.

They are the Li family of Longxi, the Li family of Zhaojun, the Cui family of Boling, the Cui family of Qinghe, the Lu family of Fanyang, the Zheng family of Xingyang, and the Wang family of Taiyuan.Li Yuan, who was defeated by Luo Cheng before, belonged to the Longxi Li family.

It can be said responsibly that during the Sui and Tang Dynasties, these aristocratic families played a significant role.They are frequently active in the political hall, and the powerful even have dozens of prime ministers.

Xue Yuanchao, the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, once regarded his failure to marry a woman from a family with seven clans and five surnames as one of the three major regrets in his life.From this we can see the great influence of these families.

Even in the beginning, Li Yuan was able to stabilize the world because of the power of the aristocratic family.But now that Luo Cheng Yanyun raised his troops without relying on the power of his family, he didn't have much fear.

From Xiajing, it is close to Hebei, and most of the five surnames and seven sects are in this realm.After all, Hebei is rich and prosperous, and its name is well known in the world. It is understandable that these families are rooted here.

If you really want to judge the most prestigious of the seven sects and five surnames today, the Wu Yi is the Boling Cui family.In history, when Li Shimin asked people to edit the clan annals, the chief official put the Boling Cui family first, which made Li Shimin furious.

Although this cannot directly reflect the influence of the Boling Cui family, it can be seen.After all, it can be ranked ahead of the royal family, and even Li Shimin is afraid of such a reputation.

It is for this reason that Luo Cheng's first destination on this trip is Boling.He wants to see what the famous Boling Cui family in history looks like now?
For Luo Cheng's gradual new policy, these aristocratic families are a great obstacle.If they deliberately obstruct it, at least it will be difficult to implement it in the local area. How can ordinary people fight against such a behemoth?
Just like the three hundred scholars recruited in the previous imperial examination, they may be upright people.But when facing the aristocratic family, they can only choose to endure and even submit, because they have no ability to overthrow time at all.

To really curb the momentum of the aristocratic family, only Luo Cheng had to do it himself.Show the majesty of the royal family, including the current intentions, if you dare to disobey, you will know your fate.

The world is so vast, it is of course impossible for Luo Cheng to visit all of them.It is one thing to expend energy, the most important thing is that there is not so much time, and it will take several years on the road, let alone other things.

But Luo Cheng is not going to let go of the so-called seven clans and five clans. If he wants to suppress the clan, he must start with the leader.If these cutting-edge combat forces are still unscrupulous, how can the following aristocratic families willingly bow their heads and surrender?
Therefore, Luo Cheng decided to take the Boling Cui family as the first target, and he didn't make much noise during this trip, he only brought Yao Ping and fifty Xiaolong soldiers.

With Luo Cheng appearing in person, these aristocratic families can really turn against the sky. They don't need thousands of troops, Luo Cheng alone can reach ten thousand troops.And he didn't really intend to use soldiers and horses to push across. Killing too much is not a good thing after all.

The purpose of this inspection is to test these aristocratic families, if they can be used by the imperial court, it will be fine.If they really have ulterior motives, Luo Chengzi will not show mercy.

That is to say, Luo Cheng is actually going to use the method of private visits on Weibo, first to see what they are doing.Since the founding of Great Xia, Luo Cheng has never really come into contact with these aristocratic families.

……

The second year of Daxia Chengshi.

Winter goes to spring, and warmth gradually comes.

In the Cui family's ancestral house in Boling, all the famous Cui family members gathered here.

The current head of the Cui clan is named Cui Mingan, and his great-grandfather is Cui Xiaofen, the general of the Northern Wei Dynasty, Dr. Zuo Guanglu, the third division of Yitong, and the official secretary.Grandfather Cui Xuanyou was also a general of the Sui Dynasty, and his background can be said to be very prominent.

At this moment, Cui Mingan is sitting in the first seat. The middle-aged man beside him is named Cui Minshou. His father, Cui Zhongfang, was a general of the Sui Dynasty and minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. He is also of extraordinary background.

There is no doubt that the Cui family is headed by these two people at this moment. Cui Mingan glanced over and looked a little dignified. Hold back."

"Our family inheritance is mainly based on becoming an official. If there are no officials in the court, I am afraid that if things go on like this, the reputation accumulated over the years by the Boling Cui family will be destroyed." Cui Mingan said sadly.

Everyone was silent, of course they knew what Cui Mingan said was the truth, but what can they do now.Before the power of the imperial court, the strength of a mere aristocratic family was still insignificant.

Even if they do have considerable influence in the world, if they really want to rebel based on this, it is tantamount to seeking their own death. They are not so stupid.

Seeing the silence of the crowd, Cui Minshou coughed twice, nodded sternly, and said, "What Daozhen said is right. Now my Cui family is in a precarious situation. If we don't respond, I'm afraid it won't be too late."

Hearing Cui Minshou's words, everyone was helpless. If this matter is really so easy to solve, there is no need to call for a discussion.The clan discussion at this moment is related to the future survival of the Boling Cui family.

Someone asked: "Cui's situation is really bad now, I don't know what kind of countermeasure Buqigong can take. If he is unwilling to take action, how can we deal with the current situation?"

Buqi is the son of Cui Zhongfang. Although he is very old, he has not yet gone west.It can be regarded as the oldest and most prestigious generation of the Boling Cui family.

Now everyone has no countermeasures, they just think of Cui Zhongfang and ask Cui Minshou.This can be regarded as a life-saving straw for them. If no one comes forward, they can only wait and see what happens.

Cui Minshou nodded slightly, and said: "My father is old and has no communication with the present, so what can he do even if he comes forward, after all, Luo Shi... this matter has to be resolved by us."

Although Cui Minshou only said half a sentence, everyone understood what he meant.Compared with other people, the Luo family is really insignificant. They don't have any family background at all. How can they reach the supreme position?

This was something the Cui family hadn't considered before. If they had known that the Luo family was so vigorous, they might have already made arrangements.Not to mention being able to prosper now, at least the family can be preserved.
