Chapter 94
The revision of "Clan Records" caused an uproar. The common people probably don't know much about this kind of thing, but those who are in it can feel that the situation has become tense.
When Li Shimin proposed to compile "Clan Records", all the aristocratic families were thinking about how to get more benefits for their families. However, when the results came out, everyone was confused. Didn't the royal family want to recreate the clan history? Divide the cake, but want to snatch all the cakes from everyone's hands!
Can this be tolerated?Many families are not calm anymore, and because of this, when Cui Mingan is connected up and down, everyone is more united.
Of course, there are also many people who sympathize with Cui Mingan. They are obviously a first-class family, but because they did not turn to the Li Tang royal family in time, they will now be demoted to third-class. However, even if they get together, they may not be able to do anything. Everyone knows The aristocratic family is noble, but what they don't know is that the aristocratic family has no soldiers now!
Even if Cui Mingan thought about changing that position to another emperor, he could only think about it. If he really wanted to do it, he had to be able to get in touch with those in the court who had more real power but were not satisfied with Li Shimin.
However, there are not many such people, and Cui Mingan thought of one person——Wei Zheng.Although everyone's first reaction when mentioning Wei Zheng in the court was to be an admonisher and he was very upright, but in Cui Mingan's view, Wei Zheng also had selfish intentions.
In other words, Wei Zheng also tends to suppress the royal family and cannot let the royal family dominate. Otherwise, why bother arguing with Li Shimin in the court hall a few days ago about whether officials above the third rank should give way to the prince to get off the sedan chair and salute?This shows that Wei Zheng is not convinced.
But you still have to be careful. Cui Minqian, as the current head of the Cui family, does everything for the sake of the family. He did not make this decision just by himself, but held a meeting and asked for the opinions of his family. .
The Cui family members were also aggrieved, usually they were superior to others, but what happened now?Not to mention Boling, even within Boling, there are many people who have risen to the sky because of the newly compiled "Clan Records", and the turning of the soil turtle has obviously contemptuous of them. How can the Cui family bear this?
At this time, it wasn't just the Cui family who were secretly planning something, all the families who were thrown out were connecting together in private.
Li Shimin was very clear about this, but when facing the worried eyes of his youngest son Li Zhi, he was still in the mood to laugh and say: "You, you are born to worry. See if your eldest brother and third brother are worried?"
Li Zhi turned his head to look at Li Chengqian and Li Ke, both of them rolled their eyes in unison, of course the two of them are not in a hurry, because the plot has already been known.
However, Li Chengqian still seriously explained to his younger brother: "They don't dare to blatantly argue, so they can only do some small tricks that can't be put on the table."
Li Zhi tilted his head and thought for a while and understood Li Chengqian's meaning. They must not dare to refute. The Li family is ranked first. The Li family is not a local turtle. It was originally a big family, but now it is ranked first in the royal family. It seems to be a matter of course. No one dares to stand up and directly say that your family is not qualified. They are afraid that if they stand up, their heads will fall.
It's just that Li Zhi is still a little worried. Although he is young, he knows the virtues of the aristocratic family very well. These people can refute without knowing it, but they will do it in private. If they want to make trouble for the Li family, it is really too easy Not to mention anything else, Li Zhi knew very well that many people in the Li family lived a relatively extravagant life. Among their brothers, except for the three who had been locked up and those who had not yet left the palace to build a mansion, that is, Li Ke and Li Chengqian The two people's life styles are relatively simple, and the others... If they are really recruited, they will be the same as each other.
Seeing that Li Zhi was still frowning, Li Ke added: "Don't worry, they have no soldiers."
Although it is said that the people who win the hearts of the people win the world, but it also depends on who the people's hearts refer to. If you have an army in your hand and the army obeys orders, then you will have the strength to compete for the world.
After hearing this, Li Zhi was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes widened: "The third brother is saying that they have a heart of disobedience?" This idea is too bold, why Li Zhi never thought of it.
Li Ke looked at him in surprise, isn't that what Li Zhi was worried about?Li Zhi was a little embarrassed, he couldn't say that he was worried about his brothers, could he?
Li Shimin patted Li Zhi on the head and said nothing, but Li Chengqian said: "It would be great if they really have the heart of disobedience."
In this way, these people can be dealt with directly and legitimately. Both Li Shimin and Li Chengqian find it very annoying to be restricted by the family.
Li Ke touched his chin and said, "It's actually not difficult. As long as there is one person who dares to take the lead, they will dare to follow."
The aristocratic family is very courageous, they have the confidence, they are rich and have people, and they will naturally fight when they need to take risks.
Li Shimin couldn't help reaching out and took a crabapple fruit and smashed it directly on Li Ke's head. Li Ke caught it reflexively and looked up a little at a loss. Li Shimin said helplessly there: "It's not a good thing to be too hostile. Starting from tomorrow, Sanlang will eat it every day." Copy a page from the scriptures."
Li Ke: ...
Seeing Li Ke's dejected look, Li Shimin couldn't help but also smiled and said, "They dare not."
Li Ke tilted his head, and Li Shimin looked out the window with a blank gaze, but said in his mouth: "The world has just gone through a great chaos, and they will not be able to withstand the second one in a short time. Will their families not die? So they will not do this unless it is absolutely necessary."
This is Li Shimin's own experience. If it weren't for the fact that there is no way to save the world, the Li family may not have embarked on this road. The rebellion seems to make people's blood boil, but one step away will be irreparable.
If Li Shimin judged with his own thinking, those people probably wouldn't do this.
However, at this moment, these people really seemed to have been dazzled and gathered together to discuss whether the person on the dragon chair should be replaced.
It's just that this discussion didn't go very smoothly. Li Shimin was killed out of a mountain of blood and blood. His father, brother, and younger brother are not his opponents. What can they do?
Cui Mingan looked around for a week, and couldn't help but sneer after finding that these people flinched: "You still have time to hesitate, but once the "Clan Records" is published, ten or twenty years later, there will still be you and me in the family position? Do we want our descendants to be the same as those poor families?"
Wang Rang frowned: "Brother Cui's words are too pessimistic."
Cui Mingan shook his head: "It's not that I'm pessimistic, but that what the sages do today is the law of future generations. If this is true, and the "Clan History" will be compiled in future generations, can everyone guarantee that there will be a high-ranking official in the family?"
Wang Rang was shocked immediately. Although he felt that the compilation of "Clan Chronicles" was inappropriate before, their family did not suffer. After all, he is now a minister of the Ministry of Rites, and the ranking of his family will not rise or fall. However, Cui Mingan's words really hit him. Alarm bell, although I feel in my heart that the descendants of their family will definitely be excellent, but how many families have been eliminated and submerged in the long river of history throughout the ages?
After thinking calmly and rationally, what Cui Mingan said is likely to happen, not to mention that he accidentally offended the royal princes before, and no one knows whether he will be suppressed in the future.
Wang Rang said with a serious expression on his face: "That's true, but don't be too impulsive. Why don't you imitate what the saint did back then, please set up the Supreme Emperor?"
Cui Mingan frowned after hearing this: "The Supreme Emperor? I'm afraid a saint won't be willing to do this."
Wang Rang's expression was calm: "Sages must never have problems, but the Supreme Emperor will not be affected."
Cui Mingan raised his eyebrows: "So, you still want to protect the Li family?"
"It is not the way of a gentleman to use his ministers to seek the ruler." Wang Rang simply said this.
However, Cui Mingan understands that they can't let the world think that they overthrew Li Tang's rule for their own selfishness.What's more, the prince's rebellion is not without lessons learned.
"That's fine, it's just the prince..."
"The prince can't do it." Wang Rang resolutely rejected the proposal: "The prince is getting older and has the courage to be alone, and he is quite like a saint. It's hard to say what will happen to him if he is chosen."
"Oh? Then you mean King Jin?" Cui Minqian lowered his head and thought for a while. King Jin is almost ten years old now, and it's easy to control his age.
"Why not King Wei?" Wang Rang looked at Cui Mingan with a smile.
Cui Mingan was taken aback for a moment: "King Wei? King Wei is about the same age as the crown prince, and he is not a direct son. I'm afraid that if his name is not correct, his words will not go well."
Silly X!Wang Rang couldn't help but swear in his heart, but he still patiently explained: "That's why he was chosen, and he can only rely on us! As for age, age is not the most important thing nowadays. We have little contact with King Jin I don’t know how he is, but we know King Wei very well, although King Wei marches and fights like a god of war, but other aspects are not satisfactory.”
In short, he is a cultured martial artist, dear, such a person must be easy to control, and Wang Rang thinks that Empress Changsun is not a simple woman, and the children she teaches must be good, Li Ke is different, Concubine Yang Shu Although she is in the harem, the higher-ups are more or less aware of what she has done, and the mother has a great influence on the child.
Cui Minqian looked at Wang Rang suspiciously: "Do you know something?" He chose Wei Wang so happily, and he could even say that he was ugly and Yinmao didn't believe it was not pre-designed.
The smile on Wang Rang's face seemed a little unfathomable: "Daozhen must be more than that, the grandson Sikong has already started to contact Wei Wang."
Cui Mingan's eyes widened immediately: "Eldest Sun Sikong? How is that possible?"
