The Lord of the Qin family put down his tea cup, looked around at the people and said, "this time we gather together, I also want to ask you what plans you have."

In the crowd, someone said, "Miss Qin's son has a good relationship with Princess Changping's beloved son and Princess Xingcheng. Naturally, the Qin family doesn't have to worry."

The master of the Qin family looked up and saw that he was the young master of the Lian family. The relationship between the Lian family and the Qin family had never been very good. At this time, even the young master of the Qin family was not surprised to say such words on this occasion. Some even thought about it. The master of the Qin family did not change his look, but gave him a faint look. On this occasion, if he was a tutor and even a childe, he would appear to be not broad-minded enough to bully the younger generation by relying on the identity of the elder and the master of the Qin family.

Qin Zixu looked up and said with an indifferent smile, "in terms of relationship, isn't Lianjia closer to your majesty? Why didn't you see your majesty bypass Lianjia?"

Everyone looked a little strange, but they looked at the Qin family less. No one in the aristocratic family tried to please the emperor. At the beginning of the founding of the country in the summer, Lian family couldn't wait to send Lian's most valuable eldest daughter to the palace. If there were another emperor, this method would probably work. After all, Daxia has just established a country, and attracting aristocratic families is what ordinary emperors do. Then the emperor went the opposite way. Even the imperial concubine went into the palace for three years without seeing your face. Five years later, she ended up depressed in the palace without even a title. Later, the Lian family was severely suppressed by the emperor, so that the Lian family, which was originally in the top ten aristocratic families, could only become a middle class.

It is this matter that makes aristocratic families realize the irreconcilable contradiction between imperial power and aristocratic families. It's just that the Central Plains has been in turmoil for more than 100 years and has finally settled down. No one is willing to provoke war again. On the other hand, after the demise of the former dynasty, barbarians in the Northern Yuan Dynasty came to dominate the Central Plains. These handed down families have lived in the south of the Yangtze River for more than 100 years and have not been able to drive away the Beiyuan people, but they have been done by a mud leg of Xiao Tianyu. In fact, they have no face to do anything more. If they provoke war again, let alone the spit of the people all over the world, they will spit on themselves.

The emperor, who was born in poverty and had a tough character, was destined to be incompatible with the aristocratic family that controlled the great wealth and power of Daxia. It's not that they have any different ideas, but that the emperor can't tolerate their existence. Now the only thing they can rejoice is that the emperor is not young. Otherwise, they may not be able to hold on for a long time. As the saying goes, imperial power is greater than heaven. This is not a joke.

Being choked back by Qin Zixu so impolitely, even the young master of the family immediately turned black and glared at Qin Zixu. Qin Zixu's sword eyebrows were slightly picked. He even found out the relationship between the concubine and Ruan Yuzhi. Now Xi'er is still locked up in Daguang temple and can't come out. The eldest childe of the Qin family is in a bad mood.

Seeing lianjiashao stand up and say something, lianjiazhu glanced back at him and stopped his action. Heart is not a time for infighting. At ordinary times, it is their own business for each family to intrigue, but now it is the time to be consistent with the outside world. Can't they understand the truth that the lips die and the teeth are cold? If you don't understand them, these families would have been submerged in the torrent of history with countless families. With a slight cough, he turned back and said, "at this time, we'd better stop making trouble. Brother Qin, if you have any plans, let's go over them together." the people nodded one after another. Naturally, they didn't come here to watch the younger generation quarrel.

After a while, someone finally whispered, "Your Majesty suddenly started on us, I'm afraid... The dragon body is a little persistent?" if the emperor can live for more than ten years, it can't be said that their aristocratic families can only quietly withdraw from the court by themselves. But now, the emperor was clearly not ready to break with the aristocratic family, but he suddenly started on them, which was obviously forced. There is only one reason why his majesty can make this dangerous move. The emperor's time is running out, and his successor Prince obviously does not have the courage to fight against the aristocratic family like the emperor. The emperor worried that after his death, the aristocratic family would grow rapidly, compete with the imperial power, or even overhead the imperial power. Such an example has not never happened in history.

Although they don't have this ambition now, if they really have favorable weather, place and people, no one here dares to say that they really don't have this mind. Now it's just that the conditions can't be met. Moreover, trust is a luxury for both them and emperors. Even if they run away and swear to the emperor that they have no different intentions, will the emperor believe it?

The hall was quiet for a moment, and then there was humanity: "so what? Even if the emperor is in poor health, it looks like... We can't just wait like this. Who of you is sure that the emperor won't suddenly order us to copy the house tomorrow morning?" if the emperor doesn't reason, they really can't carry it. Although this kind of situation is rare, at the beginning of the Liang state case, one Duke and twelve princes were involved. In just two or three days, more than a dozen first-class dignitaries in Jinling were copied and exterminated. The blood on the execution ground at the mouth of the vegetable market was washed for a month. Although their aristocratic families are not as easy to be exterminated as those newly born upstarts, even if they just cut down the branches in Jinling, they will lose their vitality. If you are not careful, you may decline from now on.

"Your Majesty doesn't like us. Your Highness the prince is in poor health. What do you think of the emperor's grandchildren?" the Yang family owner who hasn't spoken asked.

The people looked at him one after another. The head of the Yang family stroked his beard and said, "as I can see, several emperors and grandchildren, whether they are the king of Yue County, the king of Cheng county or the king of an County, are very different from your Majesty's character. If your Majesty is your majesty, it is natural that you are determined to destroy us, but if you start from several emperors and grandchildren, it is not a way out."

Qin Zixu's eyes flashed and asked, "Uncle Yang means... Let's bow to the king of Yue for the time being?"

The leader of the Yang family shook his head and said, "no, it's not princess Yue, it's three princes. All of us fell to Princess Yue, not your majesty. I'm afraid Princess Yue can see the reason. It's more likely to annoy your majesty. But..."

Qin Zixu's eyes lit up and said: "However, if we separate and support the three princes respectively, the three princes are likely to protect us for their own interests. In your Majesty's eyes, it will also look like we and the top ten aristocratic families attack each other. Although this method can not completely solve the current problems, it can solve the urgent need and postpone your Majesty's desire to kill us."

The master of the Yang family looked at Qin Zixu with appreciation and nodded slightly. The eldest childe of the Qin family really deserves to be the most outstanding successor of the younger generation.

After thinking for a long time, they all nodded. Up to now, there is no other way. Their aristocratic families say they have extraordinary power, but it is not so easy to fight the royal family. After all, most of the army, taxes and officials are still in the hands of the royal family. Their only convenience is that they need to think and worry less than the royal family.
