Prosperous Tang Blood Blade

Chapter 181
"We have done our homework beforehand for the rich and powerful families in the world!" Li Shimin said with a solemn look on his face, "Using and training soldiers should be like Chen Ying's. How could he be unknown?"

The eldest grandson Wugou said cautiously: "Seven clans and five clans of the Shandong nobles entered the world with Wenzong, and the other big clans are also like this, the family of generals from Guanlong... Could it be that Chen Ying's surname is not Chen, but his surname is Hou Mochen?"

"Hou Mochen?" Li Shimin frowned.

Hou Mochen is a rare three-character compound surname in Chinese history.Hou Mo Chen's surname is one of the Eight Pillar Kingdoms of the Western Wei Dynasty, after Hou Mo Chen Chong.Generations of gatekeepers.According to historical records, the demise of the Sui Dynasty was probably due to Yang Guang's incompetence and injustice, his militarism, his grandiose feats, and the consumption of people's power.This is just a history book, not the truth of history.In fact, after Yang Guang ascended the throne, the political reforms around the system of ennobling officials aimed to break the "Guanzhong standard policy" implemented since Yuwentai of the Northern Zhou Dynasty. Official administration, strengthening the centralization of power, and expanding the social basis of rule.

In this way, the interests of the nobles in Guanzhong were harmed.As a result, the nobles in Guanzhong who had always regarded their family, country and world as their main idea quit, and Yang Xuangan took the lead in rebelling, although Yang Xuangan failed in the end.However, an extremely abnormal phenomenon occurred, almost all the family members participated in the rebellion either openly or covertly, and then Li Mi went to the foreground openly.Then Li Yuan, supported by the Li family of Longxi, the Li family of Zhaojun, the Cui family of Qinghe, and the Wen family of Taiyuan, raised the flag to rebel.

At the beginning of Li Yuan's army, he had secretly investigated the prominent figures and spheres of influence of the various clans. Before a settlement was reached, Li Yuan had been dormant and waiting.Li Shimin searched all the memories, but couldn't find any news about Chen Ying.Li Shimin murmured: "The servant girl Guanyin said that this Chen Ying should be named Hou Mochen and named Ying?"

The eldest grandson Wugou said: "It's not impossible, Chen Yingshan Wu, after the Eight Pillars Kingdom, the major families gradually declined, especially the Hou Mochen family was the weakest."

Li Shimin nodded.The eldest son of Hou Mo and Chen Chongzhi, Hou Mo and Chen Rui, were exiled to Lingnan by Yang Guang in the early days of Daye, and served to death in Lingnan.However, at this time, the Hou Mochen family was the family that Li Yuan had the most lax investigations before he raised his troops.The other families have exhausted all their strength, only the Mohou Chen family who has long since declined gently led them.

Li Shimin and his eldest grandson Wugou never thought that Chen Ying was a real poor family, because Li Shimin's habit of thinking that a poor family could not produce a noble child made Li Shimin naturally think that Chen Ying must be a nobleman.

There is a saying that "the dragon begets the dragon, the phoenix begets the phoenix, and the son of the mouse is born to make holes." This sentence is a proverb, and it is actually a Chinese tradition.Especially during the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, this cognition reached its peak.In the Southern and Northern Dynasties, when strangers met, the first sentence of greeting was usually: "Xietai Gao's surname? Where is the prefect?"

In this era, although clan politics has already faded away, it is still the mainstream of this era.Taking the heroes of the Sui and Tang Dynasties that we are familiar with, Cheng Yaojin, the devil king of the world, can be described as thunderous.

But Cheng Yaojin's father is Cheng Lou, a Jeju Dazhongzheng.It can be understood as the provincial organization minister.His grandfather Cheng Zhe was Sima of Jinzhou.It can be said that within three generations of Cheng Yaojin, they were all provincial officials.

Then let’s talk about Qin Qiong, Qin Qiong’s great-grandfather, Qin Xiaoda, was the county magistrate of Wei Guangnian (the seventh grade), his grandfather Qin Fangtai was the Northern Qi Guangning Wangyou (the fifth grade), his father Qin Ai was raised by Ji, and he became an official of the Guangning King and joined the army ( Zheng sixth rank), although Qin Qiong's family status is not as high as Cheng Yaojin, but Qin Qiong can be regarded as a fifth-rank family in the middle of the ninth rank.

Finally, I would like to mention another door god Wei Chigong, his great-grandfather Wei Chi Benzhen, General Zhonglang of the Later Wei Dynasty, General Champion, and Founder of Yuyang County.Grandfather Yuchi Mengdu, Qi Zuobing doctor, Jin Ziguanglu doctor, Zhou Jizhou governor.Father Yuchijia, Sui Yitong Sansi (Zheng Sanpin), Youzhou Governor, You, Tan, Gui, Yi, Ping, Yan and other military forces in six states, Youzhou Governor, and Changning An Gong.It can be said that among Cheng Yaojin, Qin Qiong, and Yu Chigong, Yu Chigong's family rank is the highest, counting the middle family rank, he is considered the second class.

In fact, this traditional cognition is very reasonable. It is not that poor families cannot produce talents.But what kind of environment and what kind of talents are created, especially for highly specialized knowledge such as military, law, art, Confucianism, medicine, and craftsman, there are only strong talents, high accomplishments, and what you hear Only by witnessing the environment can one become an expert in this certain aspect.

Chen used the battle of Jingyang before and after to show his strong ability to defend the city. He also used the battle to quell the nearby enterprises to prove to people his ability to appease the people and be quick-witted. People proved his field ability.Chen applied the facts to prove that he is by no means in vain.

The eldest grandson Wugou said: "This son, in order to win, he is not hesitant to risk his life, his actions can be called daring and reckless. His meticulous mind is definitely not limited by a mere Jingzhaosu family. After a little time, he must be No. [-]." figure."

"If it can't be used by me, I will kill him!" Li Shimin said with a gloomy face, "Lei Yongji!"

Lei Yongji came from outside the hall in a short while, bowed and cupped his fists: "Please show me, Your Highness!"

Li Shimin said decisively: "From now on, I will investigate Chen Ying for this king, at all costs, to investigate the details of this Chen Ying, to investigate his parents, mother's family, wife's family, his teacher, and his enlightened master. The people around him, as long as they have names and surnames, as long as they are related to this person, check one by one, and they would rather kill the wrong one than let them go.

Lei Yongji said solemnly: "You are humble and obedient, this is up to someone to do it!"

"No, you do it yourself!" Li Shimin said, "I don't worry about the others!"

Lei Yongji was about to turn around, when Changsun Wugou screamed loudly, "Ah... ah..."

Li Shimin turned his head to look, he didn't know when it started, Changsun Wugou's face was covered with sweat, and there were wet marks on his lower body.

Although Li Shimin hadn't had time to become a father yet, when he saw the appearance of his eldest grandson Wugou, he could figure it out with his knees even if he didn't use his head. One came and roared at him, "Why are you standing there, call the imperial doctor!"

At this time, an older maid from the palace said: "Your Highness, there is no need to call the imperial doctor."

Gong'e came to Changsun Wugou's side, and she ordered: "Cook, quickly boil the hot water."

"Your Highness, please remove it!"

Li Shimin walked outside Chengqian Hall, listening to Changsun Wugou's heart-piercing shouts in Chengqian Hall.Li Shimin's heart is like a cat scratching.

The Prince Qin's mansion was in chaos at this time, those who lit the fire lit the fire, those who brought the water brought the water, those who ran to the palace asked for the imperial doctor, those who informed Li Yuan informed Li Yuan.
