Just as the common people in Liaodong County were rejoicing after seeing the announcement from Longcheng Academy, the major families in Liaodong exploded.

After all, reading and writing have always been the preserve of aristocratic families throughout the ages.

Due to backward production capacity, books have always been reproduced and spread by handwriting.

It is precisely because the books are all handwritten that they require a lot of time and manpower.

For children from poor families, they have to make money for their living, so naturally they don’t have time to copy books.

Moreover, even if they had time, they would have no source of books to copy from.

As the rich and aristocratic families have both money and manpower, they can either copy the books themselves or buy them directly from others.

As time went by, the vicious cycle between the poor and the aristocratic families became more and more serious, resulting in the fact that everyone in the aristocratic families could read and study, while the children from the poor families not only could not read, but only a few were even literate.

As for the academy, it is exclusive to the children of aristocratic families.

In order to operate and survive, the academy naturally has to charge tuition fees, and if the aristocratic family is rich, they will naturally set the tuition fees very high.

As a result, those who can go to the academy to study are the children of aristocratic families, and students from poor families cannot afford the high tuition fees of the academy.

Coupled with the family distinction between aristocratic families and even the entire society, students from poor families and children from aristocratic families are completely unable to interact with each other.

Over time, children from poor families basically have no books to read and cannot afford to go to school.

Even Yingchuan Academy, which is now very famous in the Han Dynasty, is also a paradise for children of aristocratic families.

The reason why Guo Jiahe and Xi Zhicai were able to study at Yingchuan Academy was because they were good friends with Xun Yu and had a good relationship with each other.

Others, even if they are talented, find it difficult to enter the academy.

They also cherished this learning opportunity and studied very hard.

But even so, the children of aristocratic families in the academy still looked down upon them.

Apart from the teachers, there were only a few people in the academy, including Xun Yu, who were willing to communicate with them.

It can be seen that studying and studying has completely become a privilege of aristocratic families.

It is precisely because of the monopoly of books by aristocratic families that talents from ancient times have come from aristocratic families, while very few children from poor families can stand out.

There are only a handful of commoner prime ministers like Kuang Heng.

However, the notice issued by Liu Feng completely broke the boundaries between nobles and poor students in studying.

Once implemented, it will cause a huge blow to the future talent department of Liaodong County.

After all, the number of students from poor families far exceeds that of noble families, and the number of students from poor families is several times that of children from noble families.

If children from poor families can study and study, then the already rare opportunities for children from noble families to become officials will become even more rare in the future because of competition from poor families.

After all, if students in the Han Dynasty wanted to become officials, they needed to be selected as filial and incorruptible by the prefectures and counties before they could be further promoted.

What's more, if they also go to the academy to study, the tuition fees paid by wealthy families are dozens or even hundreds of times that of ordinary people.

By doing this, Longcheng College directly violated the bottom line of the major families in Liaodong.

Therefore, the Gongsun family, as the largest family in Liaodong, gathered the heads of the major families in Liaodong County together to discuss how to deal with it.

After all, Liaodong County was located on the border of the Han Dynasty. It had experienced foreign invasions for a long time, the people were poor, and the economy was relatively backward.

Therefore, except for the Gongsun family, the other aristocratic families in Liaodong County did not have much foundation or talents.

Even if they are placed in the Central Plains region, they can only be regarded as small and medium-sized families at best.

But this does not prevent them from becoming kings and hegemons in Liaodong.

However, the major families couldn't think of any feasible solution when faced with Liu Feng's policy.

Seeing this, Gongsun Du had no choice but to come up with his own plan.

He said in front of all the family heads:"Since you have no countermeasures, I have a plan. Please support me." Everyone was already upset by Liu Feng's policy, but when they heard Gongsun Du say If there was a way, they all asked:"What way? As long as it is feasible, we will definitely support it."

Seeing this, Gongsun Du said slowly:"Actually, the plan is very simple, it is to borrow a knife to kill people."

At this time, someone asked:"I don't know what Mr. Whose sword are you borrowing to kill whom?"

Gongsun Du looked at the questioner and was very dissatisfied with the stupidity of the major families.

However, in order to work together to overthrow Liu Feng, he patiently explained:"Liu Feng is now the governor of Liaodong and was conferred by the emperor himself.

In addition, his soldiers are powerful in combat, so we must not directly rebel and attack him.

If he is old There is definitely nothing we can do if we stay in Longcheng.

But he unexpectedly held a poetry meeting over his own ability and invited aristocratic families from all over the world to attend. This is our best opportunity. There are many Han aristocratic families, so there will be a certain number of people who come to participate. There are not a few.

We can use this opportunity to send people to participate in the poetry meeting.

Then we will place a large number of assassins among the people sent to assassinate the scribes sent by the major families at the poetry meeting.

These scribes who come to participate are all They are the best young generation who can represent their own family. Once they are injured or even die, they will definitely anger the families all over the world.

These scribes come from families all over the country. If something happens, Liu Feng will definitely become the public enemy of the families all over the world.

The family The power of Liu Feng is very powerful, and once all the aristocratic families in the world unite, even Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty will have to give way.

These aristocratic families control the world's fishing boats, and they can scold Liu Feng to death.

What's more, which aristocratic family does not have private soldiers? , the number can be tens of thousands, and the number can be one or two thousand.

If they send private soldiers to attack Liaodong, Liu Feng will definitely not be their opponent, and even Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty will not dare to send troops to suppress them."

After Gongsun Du finished speaking, those sitting there The heads of the major families expressed their agreement with Gongsun Du's strategy.

But some people also raised questions:"What if the major aristocratic families are unwilling to send troops to attack Liu Feng?"

In this regard, Gongsun Du said:"Don't be anxious, everyone, just listen to what I have to say.

My adoptive father Gongsun Yu is today's Xuantu Prefect of the county.

I will ask my father Gongsun Yan to go to Xuantu County in person to discuss with my adoptive father Gongsun Yu about sending troops to Xuantu County.

As long as the scribes from the big family here are assassinated, Gongsun Yu, as the prefect of Xuantu County, will On the grounds of avenging the children of the aristocratic families in Xuantu County, they could lead troops into Liaodong to surround and kill Liu Feng.

However, countless children of major aristocratic families were killed. Even if they did not send troops themselves, they would strongly support Gongsunyu in attacking Liu Feng.

When the time comes, the general trend will be, Coupled with the support of the family, even the emperor of the Han Dynasty did not dare to say anything, and naturally he would not blame Gongsun Yu for sending troops without permission and leaving his post without permission." After hearing Gongsun Du's plan, the Liaodong family all thought that Gongsun Du was doing this. The plan is feasible, and he means that he will definitely add a large number of assassins to his candidates for the poetry meeting.
