Chapter Seventy-One: Time, Inheritance

Shu House

"Teacher, do you say that some people are not satisfied?"

Sitting on the stone bench, Du Ruhui's voice sounded slowly, with a hint of helplessness in his words.

After Du Ruhui left the palace, he did not return to the house immediately, but came to Shu'an's mansion.

Shu An's eyes did not change the slightest emotion, he did not have the morning when Li Shimin had just left, and Du Ruhui had arrived before noon.

The key is to talk to him about this matter, isn't this what I told Li Shimin in the morning.

I didn't expect Li Shimin to be so decisive, but he had some novelty about Du Ruhui's reaction.

Even he didn't expect Du Ruhui to directly support Li Shimin, and he didn't even think much about it, is this still Du Ruhui above history.

However, it should be influenced by himself, as for how Du Ruhui is a person in history, there is no detailed record.

Especially after Zhenguan, there are very few records of how Du Ruhui has been recorded, after all, Zhenguan died of illness in four years above history.

"Everyone has their own choice, doesn't they?"

In the face of Du Ruhui's words, Shu An said slowly, he didn't have much opinion on this matter.

Just as some of his students came from families, and some came from poor families, it can be said that each of them has a different identity.

However, Shu An has always cared about how his students are, maybe this is the idea of teaching without class.

He will not look down on students from wealthy families, nor will he look down on students who come out of the poor.

Du Ruhui had long known his teacher's proposition, so he was not surprised by the teacher's words, he was just saying what was in his heart.

There are not many people who can let him talk to him, and the teacher in front of him is one, so he doesn't have to worry about other effects if he says these words.

"It's okay to choose the auxiliary machine like this, Xuan Ling disappointed me."

Du Ruhui said with a hint of emotion in his eyes, after all, although he and the eldest grandson Wuji both worshipped the same teacher.

But it doesn't mean that two people are familiar with each other, on the contrary, two people sometimes often face each other, and if the only agreement is something related to the teacher.

And Fang Xuanling is one of his few friends, but he didn't expect to be as hesitant as the eldest grandson Wuji, originally thought that he would be the same as himself.

"Xuan Ling is not like you who are careless, he has a lot of connections with the Shandong Shi clan behind him."

Shu An shook his head slightly and said, he didn't agree with Du Ruhui's words, but Fang Xuanling's hesitation proved his wisdom.

This is not words to give yourself a buffer time, of course, there are gains and losses, and it is impossible to get left and right between Li Shimin and the Shi clan.

Li Shimin is not a fool, Fang Xuanling still has to make a choice in the end, he may delay for a while now, but he can't delay it for a lifetime.

Du Ruhui was also silent, in fact, he was also from the scholar clan, so he naturally understood the truth in this.

"In fact, the imperial examination system is not a good thing for the family."

Shu An looked at the silent student and couldn't help but say, with a mysterious smile on his face.

After the words fell, Du Ruhui was slightly stunned, as if he didn't understand his teacher's thoughts.

"Actually, Emperor Yang of Sui is good."

Shu An didn't continue to talk about the previous topic, but said something inexplicably.

It's just that Du Ruhui is also puzzled, and he can't seem to guess what his teacher wants to say.

"Why do you think both Emperor Wen of Sui and Emperor Yang of Sui want to suppress the family?"

Shu An didn't have any surprise in the face of his student's doubts, but continued to ask.

Du Ruhui couldn't help but think about why he wanted to suppress the family when he heard this question.

"Because the family hindered the development of the Sui Dynasty."

After a while, Du Ruhui couldn't help but say aloud, with a hint of helplessness in his words.

After all, the family gate valve controls most of the resources, and the interests of these families will inevitably be moved if the dynasty wants to develop, and the two are inevitable and irreconcilable.

For example, the Sui Dynasty implemented the policy of including households, requiring a thorough investigation to prevent the aristocracy from concealing the population, dividing large households and allowing large families to move separately and weaken their influence.

There is also a reporting system, etc., if A reports that B conceals a man, then A's enslavement will be borne by B, which has a lot of temptation for the people.

These seriously damaged the interests of the family and planted the seeds of demise for the Sui Dynasty.

And now His Majesty is also facing this problem after ascending the throne, but compared to the Sui Dynasty, the influence of the family has weakened a lot.

"Yes, it is inevitable that the family will be suppressed, do you think that Your Majesty does not have the courage to do so?"

Shu An's eyes flickered, and his voice sounded, and Du Ruhui also thought about it, he didn't think that His Majesty didn't have the courage to do so.

"If the imperial examination system allows the Shu people to rise, only then can a balance of the court be achieved."

"If a family wants to survive forever, it must learn to judge the situation, not develop it all at once."

"For the Maison, time is the greatest treasure, and everything else can be given up."

"Being too strong is not necessarily a good thing, and being a thorn in the side of a ruler is not beautiful."

Shu An's voice continued to sound, but this time Du Ruhui was stunned, because it was the first time he had heard this kind of theory.

Du Ruhui has always thought that the imperial examination system will harm the interests of the family, but listening to today's teacher, he can't help but feel that the imperial examination system seems to be good.

In particular, the sentence that time is the greatest wealth made Du Ruyan wake up to the fact that if the family inheritance is gone, then what is the meaning of others.

On the contrary, if it is passed down for several generations, whether it is wealth or influence, it will naturally be there, and it can also become a big family.

Du Ruhui didn't want the Du family to become the level of five surnames and seven hopes, it would be good if they could become a big family in the world.

Now the teacher's words made him see clearly the next path for the Du family, that is, to seek stability rather than profit.

No matter how much interest is hot, then if you take it, it will bury hidden dangers for the family in the future, on the contrary, if it is stable, it can be passed on for a hundred generations.

If you choose these two options, one is the influence of the time, and the other is the foundation of the family's development, and now Du Ruhui thinks that it is indeed not a good thing for the family to be too prosperous in the future.

"What's more, Your Majesty is not without a chance to leave a chance for the family gatekeeper."

"For example, the twenty-year revision of the clan chronicles, and the imperial examination system can restrict the examination of the family."

"If you are self-defeating, then it is the real decline, the original knowledge is in the hands of the family, and the advantage is in their hands from the beginning."

Shu An's eyes showed a hint of confusion and said slowly, in his opinion, if these families are to gain fame and become officials in a down-to-earth manner, there is basically no problem with inheritance.
