Spring and Autumn I Am King

Chapter 71: feudal system

Thank you book friend Xiangrui 1 for the reward!

Zhao Wuxi rolled over and settled down, pacing barefoot in the living room.

He knew that the Zhao clan now had four families in Handan, Wen, Ma Shou and Lou.

Wu Xie remembered that in the original history, in the civil war of Liuqing a few years later, there was a small sect who betrayed the Zhao clan, which led to the outbreak of the war and the reversal of the war situation. But he didn't remember which one it was before, but at present, it seems that the Handan family is the most suspicious!

From the performance of Handan Ji today, we can see the whole leopard. The Handan Clan is the strongest, has a great centrifugal force, and is very close to Zhao Clan's current mortal enemy, the Zhong Xing Clan.

The reason why this happens is because the "Land of Dongyang" controlled by the Bank of China is very close to Handan, and the interests of both parties are related. The second is that the Handan clan has gone out of five clothes, and the blood relationship with the Zhao clan is very weak. On the contrary, there have been many marriages with the Zhongxing clan.

On the one hand, Zhao Yang cast a punishment tripod, promulgated new family laws, and restrained the small sects; but on the other hand, he had to win over the powerful Handan clan, so that they would not deviate from them, so he arranged for Handan Ji to be Wuyi as a companion for reading. Who knew that the two of them didn't deal with each other at all.

Zhao Wuqi patted his head helplessly and said, "I sprayed Handan millet into a sieve today. The enmity between the two sides is probably completely settled."

However, can the loyalty of the small sect be exchanged for the submission of the large sect? I'm afraid it's unlikely, this is actually drinking poison juice to quench thirst. Even if he doesn't have a grudge with Handan Ji, Handan will eventually betray the Zhao family. This is something that cannot be controlled by patriarchal and personal relationships.

As the saying goes, "The branch is larger than the base, the shin is larger than the stock, and it must be covered without breaking it." Because he changed Zhao Wuxi, he didn't want to be a small sect from generation to generation, and was ordered by the big sect.

This is the paradox of the feudal system of this era - not the feudalism in the textbooks of the later celestial dynasties, but the feudalism of "feudal state and nation-building".

As the saying goes, the emperor established the country, the feudal lords established their families, the ministers set up side chambers, the doctors had the second sect, the scholars had the sons of the clerks, and all of them declined.

This is the strict feudal pyramid since the Yin and Zhou dynasties, but now it is crumbling.

In the past, King Wu conquered Shang and died in three years. Later, Duke Zhou also ruled the world, and he was awarded the title of seventy-one princes. Among them, there were fifty-three kingdoms in the same clan with the surname Ji. As long as the children of the surname Ji did not suffer from evil diseases and madness, they were all mixed up as monarchs. The original intention was to want them to "feudal relatives to shield Zhou".

But in the Spring and Autumn Period, as the blood ties became estranged, these princes deviated from Zhou Tianzi's orders one after another.

Not to mention the Guan Cai Sanjian Rebellion at the beginning of the week.

It is said that Zheng Guo, the closest blood relationship with the Zhou family, was the first to rise to lift the plate. In the battle of Zhuge, the arrow shot at the shoulder of King Huan of Zhou, and by the way, the supreme authority of Zhou Tianzi was shot to the ground.

Even the descendants of Duke Zhou, the state of Lu, who claimed to be the most complete inheritor of Zhou's rituals, are now ignoring Zhou Tianzi's love. He was even more keen on kneeling and licking the overlord Jin, and Duke Zhao of Lu also paid tribute to Duke Jin of the same title.

As the uncle of Ji surnamed Jin, although he also came forward to protect the interests of the Zhou family, the benefits were not lost: Duke Wen Chong'er of Jin obtained from the emperor the fertile land of more than ten towns in the Yang of Taihang Mountains, and requested the use of the emperor's It was buried according to the specifications, but was refuted by the King of Zhou with "name and utensil, no dummy". Since Duke Xiang of Jin, the state of Jin has actually been using his younger brother Jiang Shirong to infiltrate the upper reaches of Yi and Luo, eroding the land of Zhou Shi.

The princes are like this, and so are the ministers. At first, they were loyal servants of the Marquis of Jin and were feudalized in various cities.

In the same way, the four feudal houses of the Zhao family, Handan, Wen, Lou, and Ma Shou, are equivalent to the "six ministers" within the Zhao family. If there is a chance, wouldn't they want to replace the Zhao family?

Therefore, it is true that the Ze of a gentleman is cut for five generations. All patriarchal relatives are illusory in the end, and managing their own territory is real.

However, when Zhao Yang comes back, Wei Ji, who hates Wu Xie, will definitely say something unfavorable to him, and then he will have to explain his actions. Although with Zhao Yang's temperament, if he had been here just now, he would probably punish Handan Ji, and Zhao Wuxi had now found a way to deal with the cheap old man.

Zhao Yang loves talents, and it can be said that he is thirsty for talents. When he first succeeded the Zhao family, he once sighed to his uncle, saying that Meng Xianzi of Lu had five warriors, but he had few talents under his command.

After more than 20 years of collection, Zhao Yang's subordinates already have Dong Anyu, Yin Duo, Fu Sou, Wu Youyou Wuzheng, and Wang Sunqi as a potential stock.

If the talented one is his own son, Zhao Yang will love him even more.

When the winter solstice is timed today, Wu Xie will shock Zhao Yang with a completely different Chengxiang. As the wheat gradually grows taller and turns from green to yellow, his confidence becomes stronger and stronger. Then, extend the Chengxiang model to the entire county controlled by the Zhao clan, and win the throne in one fell swoop!

At that time, it will be time to start arranging plans to cut down Handan and other small sects.

Coincidentally, Wen Di, which Wu Xie tried to win over, is just south of Handan, facing the Juguan of Handan's clan. Once there is a change, Wen Di will become the winner and loser!

After he figured it out, Zhao Wuxi couldn't sleep either. He simply opened the door, and in the warm night of late spring, he sang a song of Xiaoya, which he slightly modified.

"The yellow bird, the yellow bird, doesn't gather on the mulberry, and it doesn't peck my beam. People in this country can't go anywhere. If you say something, you will return to my relatives."

People in this mansion, don't get along with them for a long time, I still miss my hometown often and want to go back to my relatives.

Xinjiang Zhao's mansion is magnificent, with delicious food and beautiful maids, but it is not his real destination.

Where is his home?

Zhao Wuxi was homesick, thinking of the ordinary and warm home in his previous life; thinking that after Chengyixiang Temple, there was only one home in a small courtyard; and in the lower palace, the boudoir of his sister Ji Ying, where he was haunted by his dreams, spiritual home...

He raised his head at a forty-five-degree angle, looking at the bright moon that had risen to the top of the mulberry branch, looking sad.

But... the atmosphere that was finally created was destroyed by a loud voice.

"Gentleman, you don't sleep in the middle of the night, why are you singing here!"

But it was the evil boy Tian Ben, who was urinating at night, who just heard it. He was only wearing trousers and ran over naked.

Zhao Wuxi was disturbed by his rare nostalgia, so he lifted his leg and kicked Tian Ben angrily, and scolded, "Sing your sister, don't put on your clothes soon, go back to sleep!"

Tian Ben was kicked, but he didn't feel embarrassed. He rubbed his eyes and mumbled, "I don't have any sisters in my family. I heard that there is one in Jing's family. I asked him to bring it to take a look, but he kept pushing it away..."

However, Zhao Wuxi only left him with a back view and closed the door to make up for his sleep.

……

Zhao Wuxi couldn't dream of the person in his boudoir's dream, so he got up when the **** crowing, and washed and changed clothes under the service of the maid.

Today, I am wearing a deep stretchy cloth, the belts and buttons are trimmed with brocade, and the head of the hair is also made of vermilion brocade.

Entering the study of the public family involved not only his face, but also the entire Zhao Group, and his image could not be sloppy.

The sachet prepared for him by Ji Ying, the fragrance is especially preserved, hidden in the clothes; the left sleeve is a gold flint, which is a tool for ignition, the right sleeve is the copper ring worn when shooting arrows; The white jade ring and the two-foot long sword in the zimu scabbard hang diagonally on the body.

His two entourages, Tian Ben, who has always been disheveled, was also ordered by Zhao Wuxi to dress up. The bow and arrow brought by Yap. On the other hand, the vertical width of the flat bun in soapy clothes is holding several strings of "bunch repairs", that is, dried salted pork.

After going out without a shirt, he joined Zhao Guangde who was out early~www.wuxiahere.com~ but didn't see Handanji. After waiting for a while, it still didn't arrive. It seems that his face hurt yesterday, so he couldn't lower his head and talk to Zhao Wu. T-shirts get along.

Zhao Wuqi sighed, it was true, but there was no other way, wouldn't he want him to kneel and lick the Handan Ji with a shy smile? That would only make Xiao Zong look down on him even more, and the revolt would come faster.

The two went to the backyard to meet their mistress Wei Ji according to the etiquette, but were stopped by the maid, saying that the young master was unwell today, so there was no need to come to the ceremony. Zhao Wuxi was also happy like this. Anyway, everyone was unhappy when they met, so it was better not to see it.

The group took the Sima Rong car driven by Wang Sunqi and drove out. Zhao Guangde, who was also dressed up, stood on the right side of the car, trying to make himself look more majestic, but he was short and fat with a two-foot long sword. Why? See how awkward.

Zhao Wuxi laughed in his heart, and told him not to be too nervous, and casually asked him about Wen's deeds, where the Zhao family's ancestral temple was located, but Zhao Guangde kept eating, drinking, and having fun.

Zhao Wuqi felt that the image of this guy was more suitable for being a debauched lord, or a cook who made soup all day... but he was definitely not a scholar-officer.

After leaving the mansion gate, he saw a gorgeously decorated Sima Rong chariot waiting outside.

And the owner of the car is a tall, strong, loyal young gentleman in brocade clothes and jade.

Seeing Zhao Wuxie's group coming out, he showed a simple and honest smile, waved his wide sleeves, and saluted Wuxie: "But Wuxie's world brother? Wei Ju is being polite here!"
