back to ancient times to be emperor

Chapter 175 Schedule
Lu Chengqi recovered from his thoughts, and asked slowly: "Which families are there?"

Xu Jingchun didn't dare to hide it, and said softly: "The main ones are the Taiyuan royal family, the Dunqiu Li family, and a bunch of small families." The Dunqiu Li family that Xu Jingchun said came from the Longxi Li family in the early days of the Dashun Dynasty. That was Li Yuan's family.It is a pity that at this time, there was no Southern and Northern Dynasties, no Sui Dynasty, and naturally no Tang Dynasty.So it's a pity that the Li family in Longxi is not as distinguished as it was in history.

Because the earliest governor of Longxi County in the Qin Dynasty was Li Chong, later generations respected him as the ancestor of the Li family in Longxi.The Li family became a famous family in Longxi County by three generations of Li Chong's ancestors and grandchildren: Li Chongzhi's second son, Yao, was the governor of Nanjun and granted the title of Di Daohou; his grandson Xin was named a general and granted the title of Longxi Marquis.During the Han Dynasty, two important figures emerged from the Li family in Longxi: the parachutist Li Guang and his younger brother Li Cai.Li Guangsun Li Ling was defeated and captured by the Xiongnu, which caused the Li family in Longxi to lose its reputation in the county.Gradually in the early days of Dashun, the Li family in Longxi was already a strong outsider except for an empty shell.

Fortunately, there are many branches of the Longxi Li family. In general, there are thirteen branches: Fanyang Li family, Dunqiu Li family, Bohai Li family, Shengongfang Li family, Danyang Li family, Anyi Li family, Jingzhaofang Li family , Pingliang Li, Guzang Li, Dunhuang Li, Pushefang Li, Jiangjun Li, Wuling Li.It can be said that the branches and leaves are scattered, and the descendants are widely distributed.

In a big family, there are always some scum.Or these aristocratic families are inherently unstable factors.During the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the reason why the four great families took turns ruling was the result of the struggle between the great families and the imperial power. In order to regain the ruling power, the royal family supported the new great families to suppress the old ones. The old aristocratic family became the new de facto ruler.In a normal feudal society, the imperial power would not allow the emergence of a powerful family like Wang Xie who could influence the normal rule. After the establishment of the Dashun Dynasty, these super powerful families began to decline and gradually declined.Now it is considered that the hairless phoenix is ​​not as good as the chicken. In order to maintain a decent life, they have to start to embark on the path they despised the most - doing business.This turmoil is probably because Lu Chengqi has violated their interests, the most lucrative salt business.Otherwise, these ineffective families would definitely not unite to engage in these conspiracies.

Rather than saying that the previous dynasty was defeated by the Lu family, it might as well be that they defeated themselves and lost to the talent pool.Due to the drawbacks of the Nine-Rank Zhongzheng system, talents were able to be selected in the early stage, but many disadvantages gradually appeared: the aristocratic families increasingly controlled the power of selecting officials, and the phenomenon of "long-standing officials" appeared. A poor family, a low-ranking no-gentry family" situation.The gentry is becoming increasingly corrupt and lacks administrative ability. The former dynasty was slowly devoured by such rice moths, and then lost its country...

Each system has its own suitable era.Once expired, like food, it slowly changes its taste.In the Wei and Jin Dynasties, the Jiupin Zhongzheng system can be said to be very good.But it slowly changed, making the super family members the biggest beneficiaries.Why is Dashun not like this now?There is no system that is always applicable. If the thinking does not change, even if Lu Chengqi creates the most suitable system, it will still be gradually changed by future generations.Sometimes the system depends more on who implements it. No matter how good the system is, if the people who implement it are not good, the result will not be much better.If we want the Chinese nation to be self-improving and unyielding, we need to change our minds!
Lu Chengqi returned to reality from his thoughts, after all, now is not the time to rectify his thoughts, dealing with these aristocratic families is the most important thing.After careful recollection of the aristocratic families Xu Jingchun mentioned, he nodded slowly and said, "Don't be afraid of clowns. Xu Qing, keep watching them closely, and report to me if there is any movement. I won't believe it. What kind of storm can a mob be able to withstand..." Speaking of this, Lu Chengqi suddenly thought of something, and secretly said: "Yes, this excuse can be used to raise troops! If this is the case, those Yushitai probably have nothing to say... ..." Lu Chengqi secretly calculated and thought it was very feasible.However, this matter cannot be left to him, and a "gunner" must be found.After much deliberation, there are only a handful of people who can be said and trusted.

Xu Jingchun repeatedly said yes, and flattered him: "Your Majesty is wise and powerful, and these clowns are naturally not to be taken seriously!"

Lu Chengqi laughed and scolded: "You back down, if you keep flattering me, I won't let you off lightly! What kind of brilliance and martial arts, I have self-knowledge. I can't talk about being wise and martial, but if someone touches my bottom line, then don't blame me ..."

After all, Lu Chengqi's eyes flashed brightly, Xu Jingchun was so frightened that he didn't dare to look directly.He himself was very puzzled by this question, obviously Lu Chengqi has no strength to restrain a chicken... Well, maybe he has been tempered now, it seems that he is not so weak, but ten Lu Chengqi tied together are not Xu Jingchun's opponent!Why did Lu Chengqi tremble like a chicken when he got angry?Could this be the legendary domineering spirit?
Xu Jingchun said repeatedly: "Your Majesty's instruction, I will keep it in my heart, I will keep it in my heart..." But he didn't remember it in his heart. Is there any emperor who doesn't like flattering words?It's just that he, Xu Jingchun, didn't read too many books, and his flattery was too clumsy, with too many traces.If it was like Zhuge Ke in the Three Kingdoms period, flattering was like spring breeze turning rain, even if Lu Chengqi could hear it, he would enjoy it very much.It turned out that during the Three Kingdoms period, Zhuge Ke's lord Sun Quan asked him: "Who is better, your father or your uncle (referring to Zhuge Liang)?" Zhuge Ke said, "My father is better." Sun Quan asked why, and Zhuge Ke said: "My father knew who to serve, but my uncle didn't, so my father is better." Sun Quan laughed and was very grateful.

After Xu Jingchun exited the Chui Gong Palace, he was in a pretty good mood, at least this was the most relaxing time seeing Lu Chengqi.There is no special task, and there is no face, it is really comfortable.Humming a ditty, he left Xuande Gate and went to the Supervision Department.

And Lu Chengqi ordered Xiao Huangmen: "Please invite Mr. Xu, the chief assistant of the cabinet, to come to the Chui Gong Palace."

The little yellow gate didn't dare to neglect, and hurriedly went to Wende Hall to invite someone.Fortunately, Xu Chongguang is on duty today, otherwise Xiao Huangmen would have to go to the Xu Mansion in the north of the city to invite Xu Chongguang.Hearing Lu Chengqi's summoning, Xu Chongguang was half doubtful and seventy cautious, and thought: "Could something have happened? Could it be that the old man's night talk with the town a few days ago reached the little emperor's ears? "

Walking through the back door of the Wende Hall anxiously, and then passing a palace wall, it is the door of the Chuigong Hall.According to the rules, Xu Chongguang honestly asked the servants to go in outside the hall to report, saying that Xu Chongguang, the chief assistant of the cabinet, asked to see him.

Not long after, the servant came out and said to him: "Master Xu, Your Majesty declares!"

Hearing this, Xu Chongguang quickly tidied up his official uniform before stepping into the gate of the Chui Gong Hall. Under the leadership of the servant, he walked through a garden, came outside the gate of the Chui Gong Hall, and entered the hall gently.
