Of course, Xiao Ruxun meant more than that.

"After listening to me, although it is necessary to prevent the feudal kings from chaotic governance, I do not agree with raising the children of the clan as waste and raising a group of waste to waste the national treasury, so I will set up a special royal academy in the palace and invite the best teachers to educate the children of the royal family.

Then, according to the results of the children of the royal family, the best of the descendants of each brother will become the one who inherits the crown.

The rest of the people, according to the level of achievement, divided into different positions of loose officials, according to the grade system, the lowest nine grades, the highest six, over time, according to age, seniority and achievements, gradually improved, do not rule out the possibility of getting the title again, but the highest is only to the duke, it is impossible to be crowned king again.

In the future, the royal inheritance system will be in this way, all children of the royal family can enter the royal academy to study, and they will be ranked according to their grades, and the best one will inherit the title, and the rest will be the same as officials with different surnames. ”

The three brothers were dumbfounded, seemingly surprised.

However, Xiao Ruxun's words were not finished.

"Naturally, I don't allow the descendants of the royal family to become waste, but, because of their identity, I don't allow them to engage in politics, business, and the military, and I don't allow them to compete with the people for profit, so after thinking about it, I will set up some institutions to settle the children of the royal family, so that they have something to do, contribute to Daqin, and have the possibility of accumulating merit and promotion."

"You can't be in politics, the military, or business, so what else can you do?"

Xiao Ruhui couldn't help but ask.

"Do your research."

Xiao Ruxun said.

"Research?"

The three brothers looked at each other.

Xiao Ruxun nodded, then took out a handcuff from his arms and handed it to Xiao Rulan.

"Three brothers, please see, this gun is the latest short fire gun developed by my subordinates, and it can be used with one hand."

"Is this a firebolt?"

Xiao Rulan was very curious, looked in at the muzzle of the gun, and then held it with one hand, and found that it was a very interesting thing.

"That's right, this is a firecracker, a handcuff that can be used by one person with one hand, compared with the current bird gun flintlock haircracker, although the power is not large and the range is not far, but it is very easy to use at close range, and it will probably be promoted on officers in the army in the future, and this is what I expect from the children of the royal family.

They have the best educational resources, I will ask the best teachers to be responsible for educating them, they have such superior conditions, they must make corresponding achievements, if the talent is limited and can not do anything, diligent work to help people can also boil qualifications. ”

"This ......"

The three brothers were amazed by this.

They never thought that the children of the royal family would need to do such a thing.

"The development of the new dynasty needs firearms, all kinds of new types of firearms and ordnance, the people need new agricultural tools for plowing the fields, new looms for weaving silk and cloth, new ships for the ocean-going sea, more means of transportation for the march of the army to increase speed, and more utensils and books for children to read.

In all aspects, these new things are inseparable, and if there is demand, there will be creation, and I hope that the children of the royal family can make efforts for this and create more useful things for Daqin, whether it is used for plowing the fields, used for war, used for navigation, reading and writing, or used for other things, as long as it is useful, it is a credit.

But if you can't do anything, or even don't want to work diligently and diligently, be idle and extravagant, or commit a crime, I will not show mercy, and will directly hand it over to the Zongren Mansion, get rid of the royal family, and be abolished as a concubine, and never return to Beijing. ”

The three brothers finally understood what Xiao Ruxun meant.

He doesn't want the royal family to become a waste, it will only waste the country's money and food, he hopes that the royal family will become useful people, and at the same time, he can also keep the royal family in Beijing to supervise on the spot, and he can directly control every royal child, and even control the number of royal children, so that the royal family can become a non-threatening and even a great help.

He hopes to make the children of the royal family useful in this way, instead of being idle and lazy all day long, bullying men and women and tyrannical and unscrupulous.

He wants to make the children of the royal family who are blessed with unique conditions become elites and talents of the country.

Xiao Ruxun is different from other emperors, he attaches great importance to invention and creation, and is very interested in new things, if he can make new things that are beneficial to the country and the people, it is undoubtedly a great merit, so that he can be promoted to an official position, and he is promoted to a knighthood, which is better than the bloodline hereditary.

The three brothers didn't know how to refute it, and they didn't know what the point of the rebuttal was.

Naturally, they do not want their children and grandchildren to become waste, to become a group of people who are spurned, or even to be regarded as a state maladministration.

And Xiao Ruxun's method is undoubtedly a way of thinking.

I don't know how difficult it will be to implement, but if it really works, it is certainly feasible.

Royal Academy of Sciences.

This is one of Xiao Ruxun's plans, so that the children of the clan have something to do, where they can use their strengths to contribute to the country, and this institution is undoubtedly the key to turning waste into treasure.

With such good educational conditions, there is no need to worry about eating and drinking, but such superior conditions cannot be applied to national development, but instead they have cultivated a group of waste, only knowing that eating, drinking and having fun will drag down the country's finances, and this waste is simply outrageous.

Isn't there a seedling among the children of the royal family who can be cultivated into excellent talents?

Seeing that the three brothers no longer spoke, and even kept nodding their heads, Xiao Ruxun said happily: "Since the brothers have agreed, then I won't say anything more, everything is for the sake of Daqin, and the brothers must understand me, Li Sheng, and declare the decree." ”

Xiao Ruxun sat upright, and Li Sheng, the great eunuch standing beside him, immediately took out a yellow silk from his cuff.

When the three brothers saw it, they immediately stepped forward and knelt down to receive the order.

This awareness still needs to be there.

Xiao Ruxun didn't stop him, sat upright, picked up the tea bowl and took a sip of tea.

"Fengtian carries the emperor, and the edict says: I have inherited the order of the heavens, Qin Ruo has been trained before, supplemented by the construction of a domain, with the Ming pro-sage, the order of the ancient sage king, brother Rulan, etc., filial piety and generosity, gentle and respectful, there are branches and leaves, the road has no phosphorus, practice the gentleman's moderation, study the righteousness of the sage, and be happy and kind...... The eldest brother Rulan can be crowned the king of Chu, the second brother Ruhui can be crowned the king of Zhao, and the third brother Ruzhi can be crowned the king of Qi. ”

Li Sheng read out the edict of the king in a frustrated manner, and the three brothers kowtowed to thank him.

"Thank you for your grace, long live my emperor, long live long live."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Ruxun got up and personally helped up the three brothers.

"Etiquette is restricted in front of outsiders, and there is no need to do so in front of your family, the three brothers are invited to get up quickly."

Then, Xiao Ruxun said: "From now on, the four of us brothers will never have to be separated, and we will suffer from longing, and when the Jingshi settles down, I will bring my father to the Jingshi again, and our family will be reunited again." ”

Xiao Rulan, Xiao Ruhui and Xiao Ruzhi all showed relieved smiles.

That's really true.

The Xiao family really doesn't have to be separated from now on.
