Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 872 Aftermath

The killing god in front of him was covered in blood, and he didn't know how many people he had killed just now. Mu Yuanzuo, a frail scholar, was a little startled when he saw Xi Junmai, but he didn't dare to express any displeasure or anger in his tone.

He is really scared...

Xi Junmai smiled, and glanced at all the officials, but no one dared to look at him, they all turned their heads away unnaturally, and looked away.Xi Junmai took Mu Yuanzuo two steps away, leaned over and whispered in his ear: "The chief executive said, if Mu Shijun is high-spirited and upright, and doesn't want to share the credit, he will definitely yearn for it. But the chief executive is You are a loyal and benevolent person, how can you monopolize this great achievement? The more Mu Shijun refuses, the more he admires him, and the more he wants to praise Mu Shijun, the more senior you will be. , but there are still three lords and nine ministers, three high-ranking officials, and cabinet bachelors... He will advise His Majesty that this action to exterminate the Gu family has obtained the approval and help of Mu Shijun, and it is Mu Shijun Keep all the officials in the dark, so that the news will not leak out, and only then can the Gu family's thieves be wiped out..."

Mu Yuanzuo was terrified when he heard that!
Shameless, so shameless!

This Fang Jun is probably also aware of the difficult situation he will face after destroying the Gu family.So, you just want to pull a back-up guy like me and share some of the firepower for him, right?

Speaking of which, a governor of Shangzhou is barely qualified to take the blame...

But why!
Is it easy for me to become such an official position as the governor of Suzhou?
Mu Yuanzuo was startled and angry at once, and said angrily, "It's unreasonable! It's unreasonable... Fang Jun is too rascal, isn't he? He has nothing to do with me at this time, why drag me into trouble?"

Xi Junmai coughed dryly: "This...how can you say that? This credit is simply the first great achievement after the founding of the country. How many people want to get a little bit of luck but can't get it. How can it be said that it dragged you into the water? "

He also felt that the chief executive of his family did not do it properly, obviously bullying honest people, who said that this Mu Yuanzuo has no background and no backing... As for Fang Jun's intentions, he couldn't guess. I don't even bother to guess.

Let’s do whatever the chief executive calls, why ask so many questions...

Mu Yuanzuo's face was green and pale, he hesitated for a moment, and asked, "There is no room for maneuver?"

Xi Junmai shook his head: "The chief manager said one thing, absolutely not!"

Mu Yuanzuo gritted his teeth and said angrily, "Do whatever you like!"

Flicking the sleeves of his robe, he turned and left angrily.

What a pity, how did you come across such a stick?
Thinking about how he would be regarded as a thorn in the flesh by all the powerful families in the world, Mu Yuanzuo felt that his future was gloomy.I deeply regret spending a lot of money and taking great favors to seek such a hot official position...

This is unlucky, is it still letting people live?

*****
The heavy rain lasted for three days before it gradually subsided.

It's just that although the rain has stopped, it hasn't completely cleared up. The sky is still as gloomy as a lead drop, and the raindrops are pattering, and they haven't stopped.

The tragedy of the Gu family quickly spread throughout Jiangdong, and gradually spread to the Jiangnan area.

It's just that different from the uproar and shock I imagined, all the gentry families in the south of the Yangtze River unexpectedly remained silent. It's just that they were afraid of Fang Jun's strength, or because the Gu family was involved in the conspiracy of the remnants of the former Sui Dynasty. Get into trouble...

The entire south of the Yangtze River seemed to be shrouded in terrifying air pressure.

It is the merchants who like to pass the news the most when they travel around in the past, but this time they are silent, doing business honestly, delivering goods honestly and collecting money, and putting a seal on their mouths, not daring to say a word Say.

Everyone knows that misfortune comes from the mouth.

Usually, merchants like to get together to exchange prices and business conditions of goods in various places after finishing the business, and talk about the local customs and customs and anecdotes of various places by the way.The atmosphere of the Tang Dynasty was open, not only did it mean that the restrictions on the affairs of men and women were loose, but the political atmosphere was also extremely free. As long as you didn't stupidly curse the emperor, you probably wouldn't care about it.

Compared with the "literary prison" and "convicted for words" in a certain dynasty, it is simply a heaven-like existence.Of course, Fang Jun will not agree with this statement, and there must be a limit to freedom of speech, that is, it must be under the premise of "political correctness".Public opinion needs to be guided and controlled, otherwise, if they act recklessly, [-]% will be provoked and used with ulterior motives. At that time, the political situation will be turbulent and social conflicts will intensify. The unlucky ones will be those ordinary people clamoring for "freedom of speech"...

But in the current situation, who dares to say more?
Even if you don't mention the Gu family, who can guarantee that what you say will not be speculated and then put on the line?

The imperial court may not care what you say, but didn't you see that all those aristocratic families are holding back their energy, just waiting for a catharsis to appear, so that they can make a big deal?
At this time, whoever bumps into the knife edge is purely looking for death...

When Fang Jun sent the Gu family's criminal evidence to the capital, he also received an imperial order unexpectedly.

Piansi Liliu's words looked beautiful, but Fang Jun couldn't understand them at all.If it’s just a simple modification of vocabulary, it’s better, and you can probably understand the meaning if you stroke it, but when it comes to idioms such as allusions, stop immediately...

There are many uncommon idioms in this edict, such as "the melon replaces it", such as "the nose is swaying the catty", such as "the endowment of the lake"... Fang Jun was confused for a while.Cursing inwardly, I don't know which sycophant wrote a copy of the imperial edict so obscurely in order to please Li Er.

Chinese is the most beautiful language, Fang Jun has no doubt about it.

If you write articles in private, no matter how much you show off your literary talents, you can’t exaggerate your rhetoric, but this is an edict, and it is meant to be publicly read by the world. How many people can understand it if you make it so gorgeous and obscure? clear?
Fang Jun secretly took care that he would definitely want to meet Li Er when he had the opportunity in the future, but any documents with such important matters or wide-ranging implications must be plain and easy to understand.

Fortunately, he still has some literary skills, at least when he was in school, he always passed the Chinese language, and he actually made him forcefully figure out the meaning of this edict...

The meaning in the text is that the emperor followed the original intention of enfeoffment in ancient times, and ordered the descendants of the Li and Tang royal families to rule the world and serve as the border of the country.But times have changed, and the ancient laws and regulations are no longer applicable to the present, so the feudal system was abolished and the feudal state was eliminated.Now that the princes of the feudal clan have been ordered to arrange the important military and political affairs in various places, they will return to Beijing within a limited time, and there must be no mistakes...

Regarding this point, Fang Jun still admires His Majesty Li Er very much.

According to His Majesty Li Er's original wish, he wanted to entrust his sons to various parts of the world, feudalize his own kingdom, and defend the capital.They are all his own species, but the prince can only have one, not to mention the palms and backs of the hands are all fleshy, and he feels distressed if he loses any one. The fact that these sons are all outstanding without a fuel-efficient lamp makes His Majesty Li Er scratch his head and stare at the prince. In this position, sooner or later something big will happen...

Let the sons entrust each other to establish a country, and you go to your own fiefs to toss, aren't you the same as the emperor?If there is a foreign invasion, the feudal kingdoms in various places will be able to resist resistance in the first place, and will spare no effort to resist!The land was granted to you by the emperor, if it is lost from your hands, you can't blame others.What's more, you lost your own land, so you have the nerve to ask the emperor for another piece of land, and start feudalism again?
Don't be ashamed...

It can be said that His Majesty Li Er's ideal is very full, but the reality is very skinny.

Most things in the world can only be achieved by making the best use of the situation.If you go against the trend, you can only fail.The feudal system was played in the ancient Spring and Autumn Period. Qin Shihuang deposed it and set up the county system to strengthen the centralization of power. The Han Dynasty picked it up again. The son made a mess, and the central government was in a mess.

Facts have proved that there is a trend in the development of history, and only by following the trend can we rejuvenate the country and stabilize the country; if we turn back the wheel of history, the world will inevitably be chaotic, and it will be too late to regret.

His Majesty Li Er probably saw from where the disadvantages of this feudal system were extremely serious, so he decisively admitted his mistakes, changed course, abolished the feudal system, and recalled all the princes who had already died to Chang'an.

It's just that if this is the case, I'm afraid there will be troubles in Chang'an...

Pei Xingjian looked at Fang Jun sitting on the chair in a daze, couldn't help it, and asked: "This time, it's too much to go to war with the Gu family. From now on, the situation that the chief executive will face is really too difficult... "

Before Fang Jun could make a sound, Su Dingfang on the side had already said coolly: "The Gu family, you deserve to die!"

　When you watch pirated versions, you are still picky and picky, you know that is too much?Even if you don't have the money to subscribe, at least vote for a few recommended votes, I'll blush for you...
