Chapter 827: A Pure White Family
"Lord Chen, Lord Zeng, this is leaving, don't you come to a string?"
Li Yi held two strings of chicken wings in his hands, and raised his hand to ask when Chen Chong and Zeng Shichun walked by.
"How dare you bother Li Xianhou to cook in person, retire, retire ......"
Even when he was doing something to His Majesty just now, he swallowed a lot of saliva because of the smell of meat from time to time, Zeng Shichun and Chen Chong still hugged their fists in fear and left quickly.
Just kidding, His Majesty wanted a string of chicken wings just now, but he sternly refused and didn't let it, if the two of them dared to stretch out their hands at this time, what would Your Majesty think when he saw it?
"Hypocritical ......"
Li Yi glanced at the two people who fled in the wilderness, how dare they bother, they said that they had never been tired, one set in front of themselves, one set in front of the old emperor, two hypocritical guys......
"If you don't give them food, come, you two, one for each person." Completely ignoring the old emperor's eyes watching from a distance, Li Yi gave the two strings of chicken wings to Yongning and Tsundere Lori.
"Thank you, sir......" Tsundere Lori said reservedly, and kissed him gently on the cheek.
Li Yi had already taken the other two skewers to the fire and roasted them, and when he saw this, his head turned to the side, "Hey, hey, I just ate something, and my mouth is full of oily ......."
"I'll wipe it for my husband...... Tsundere Lori took out a small handkerchief, ran over and dipped it in water, and ran back quickly......
"Humph!" Emperor Jing, who was lying in the rocking chair, let out a thick nasal sound, then turned his head, peeled a grape and threw it into his mouth, muttering: "It's strange, it's really strange......"
"Why is Your Majesty so strange?" Changde bowed his head and spoke.
Emperor Jing was surprised: "Chen Chong is a person, he has the ability, but he firmly stands on the side of the King of Shu and the Cui family on weekdays, and the things that are unfavorable to them have always been to avoid the important and light, what is the matter today, the sect lords and clans in various places are in turmoil, I am afraid that the Cui family is fueling the troubles, he is rarely so fair today, without the slightest bias, you say this is not strange?" ”
"As an important minister of the court, upholding justice and not losing partiality is the responsibility of one's life, why did Your Majesty say this......"
Emperor Jing snorted coldly and said, "I'm afraid that most of the people in the court are not as clear as you think......"
Peeling a grape again, he said: "Speaking of which, these gate valve clans, this joint cooperation is chaotic, and the preparation of the academy has encountered great obstacles in the local area, and Kyoto is too far away, and the government decree has been reduced...... so I went to call Li Yi." ”
Li Yi handed over the responsibility of barbecue to Li Han, then washed his hands, walked over, saw Emperor Jing eating grapes one by one, nodded and said: "Grape brewing and grapes, the difference between one word is not too much, Your Majesty should not drink alcohol, it ......is good to eat more grapes."
After speaking, he stretched out his hand to take the grapes thrown by Emperor Jing, not to mention, this tribute grape is indeed much sweeter than the outside.
Emperor Jing looked at him and asked: "The clan gate valves in various places are now twisted into a single force, you want Mingzhu to re-edit the "Clan Chronicles", according to this law, the status of all the old gate valve clans will be different from the past, won't it cause them to have a greater backlash?" ”
"The minister didn't say everything." Li Yi ate another grape and said, "Like Pingyang Zhang's, Yunzhou Wei's, Tongzhou Gou's ......"
He named a few names, "These are all innocent and good people, of course they must be treated differently." ”
"Pingyang Zhang's, Yunzhou Wei's, Tongzhou Gou's ......" Emperor Jing frowned and asked, "Where are these people ......?"
Before he finished speaking, he closed his mouth again, his face showed a look of thought, and after a while, he nodded and said: "Yes, these are innocent and good families, and the court should give special preferential treatment, even if there is no one in the family who is an official in the court, the position in the clan history must be slightly mentioned on the premise." ”
"You go and keep busy, leave me two strings of wings......" Emperor Jing waved his hand, and then turned back and ordered: "Come on, squeeze these grapes into juice for me!" ”
……
Outside the Furong Garden, Chen Chong and Zeng Shichun did not separate from each other, but got into the same carriage.
Chen Chong frowned and said: "Your Majesty just said that you want to re-edit the "Clan Chronicles", I don't know how much storm it will set off......"
Zeng Shichun shook his head: "This matter is not trivial, once the "Clan Chronicles" is recompiled, the election of officials in the imperial court, the marriage between the scholars, and the prestige of the wealthy lords among the people will all change, which can be said to have fundamentally touched the status of those wealthy families, Your Majesty wants to use this to suppress the old scholars, I am afraid it will not be easy." ”
"In recent days, the Cui family has been agitating behind their backs, and those people finally can't sit still." Chen Chong looked outside and said, "Your Majesty's determination to build an academy and support the Hanmen Shu clan is so strong, it is reasonable to suppress them. ”
"It's just that in the past few decades, there has been unprecedented unity between these old clan lords, and Your Majesty's move will not go well, not to mention, their high reputation among the people is not something that can be destroyed by a book of "Clan Chronicles", and after being recompiled, it is still unknown whether they can be recognized by everyone."
Zeng Shichun shook his head and said, "Compared to prestige, can they compare to the eldest princess?" At this moment, Her Royal Highness the princess is in charge, if she implements it, who among the people will not accept it? ”
Chen Chong was speechless for a moment.
In the past two years, the eldest princess has really done too many great things for the benefit of the country and the people, if it weren't for this, His Majesty would not give up all the princes and let her act as the superintendent of the country.
It is precisely because the decrees she implemented are very close to the people's livelihood, in terms of prestige and reputation among the people, I am afraid that Her Majesty is not as good as Her Royal Highness the Princess......
Chen Chong suddenly thought of something and asked, "You say, what kind of thoughts does Li Yi have?" ”
Zeng Shichun looked at him and asked, "What do you mean?" ”
"You also saw it just now, his holy family is unprecedented, how can he have a relationship with His Majesty as a monarch and minister......" Chen Chong's face showed a strong look of doubt, and said: "With his ability and power, no matter which prince he chooses to support, the chances of the King of Shu being able to ascend to the throne are very slim, but he did not agree to any prince's solicitation, but ......"
"On the contrary, it has always been Her Royal Highness the Princess?"
Seeing Chen Chong nodding, Zeng Shichun thought for a while and said: "Maybe he himself realizes that no matter what position he is in and what status he has in His Majesty's heart, if he participates in the battle for succession, it will inevitably cause His Majesty's dissatisfaction, and in this way, he is expressing his attitude and position." ”
Chen Chong frowned and said, "You mean, the two don't help each other, and indirectly show Your Majesty that they will not participate in the seizure of the heir?" ”
"Or else?" Zeng Shichun looked at him and asked, "Lord Chen, doesn't you think that he wants to support an empress out?" ”
"Of course it can't be ......." Chen Chong shook his head.
It's just that he hesitated for a moment more than the last time he answered this question.
……
"Ridiculous, ridiculous, the "Chronicles of the Clans" is divided into clans according to genealogical traditions, how can it be easily modified!"
"Zhang Gong, don't be excited, don't be excited." A middle-aged man helped the angry old man and said: "This move of the imperial court, ignoring etiquette and subverting traditions, will definitely not be recognized by the world, Zhang Gong don't worry." ”
The old man looked at him and said disdainfully: "Of course you don't have to worry, your Zheng family still has people as officials in the court, even if it really falls, it can't be reduced much, I Pingyang Zhang's family, but it has dropped by two whole ranks!" ”
When the middle-aged man heard this, after thinking about it, he stopped talking.
This elder of the Zhang family in Pingyang is very right, the Zheng family is not like the Zhang family, the Zheng family still has people as officials in the court, even if the "Clan Chronicles" is rearranged, the position of the Zheng family will not change much.
As for the Zhang family, who has no one in the government and the opposition, who cares?
"How can there be such a reason, how can there be such a reason, in this way, how can there be etiquette!" Another person slapped the table angrily.
The face of the person beside him was also gloomy, "The distinction between the door and the rank has existed since ancient times, how can it be changed if it is said to be changed!" ”
Like the Pingyang Zhang family, the Yunzhou Wei family and the Tongzhou Gou family are also the two parties whose interests have been greatly damaged in the process of compiling the "Clan Chronicles".
After Wei Fang and Gou Xu finished speaking, the hall became more and more boiling, but there was no way to know what everyone thought in their hearts.
Although there are still many families like the Zhang family, the Wei family and the Gou family who were damaged in this incident, there are also some families who, for various reasons, not only did not suffer damage, but instead improved, and I am afraid that they will have a higher prestige and more fame in the future......
This is a good thing, after expressing deep sympathy for the Zhang family and the Wei family today, when I return to the family, I still have to celebrate......
