It is even conceivable that once the imperial examination system is really spread all over the world, the monopoly of knowledge by the aristocratic families will definitely go to a higher level!

"Ahem, have you carefully observed the document in our hands? The same writing style, structure and size are exactly the same. What does this mean?" the Patriarch of the Zhong family said suddenly.

Huh?Really? ?

The patriarchs of other aristocratic families verified and observed again, and then nodded. They also realized the seriousness of the problem, which shows that Da Han, no, Da Qin has already mastered this method of large-scale book printing.

"Well, it's like it's printed on a seal, exactly the same."

"This is woodblock printing and movable type printing. These two printing techniques plus papermaking can easily produce thousands of identical books. This is a grand event in the prosperity of culture and education."

But it is also the scene that the aristocratic families are least willing to see. When papermaking is combined with printing, books are worthless, and it is difficult to continue to monopolize it, because printing is really not difficult in terms of technology. Just find a stonemason. Can complete the engraving, even if the mason himself is illiterate!

After realizing this situation, the faces of the patriarchs of the aristocratic families are not good. Whether they are elites or idiots, their position is the same. They are the ruling class of the big men. For them, the world will never change, and maintaining the status quo is the best.

If they want to change, they have to change in a direction that is beneficial to them, but now it seems that this imperial examination system is a super poison that looks superficial.

Flipping through page after page, the patriarchs quickly saw the military meritorious rank, and the word "Bao Qin" blurted out in an instant. How can the aristocratic families rely on their nobility?Is it by force?Of course not, they rely on knowledge and inheritance!

If there is a military meritorious title, people all over the world will be proud of fighting, how can the aristocratic families promote themselves, brag about themselves, and brag about each other?Would it be necessary to go to the battlefield once before flattering each other in the future?

Half an hour later, after watching the changes in Jizhou, the Patriarchs had everything on their minds, but their facial expressions remained the same, they were all silent.

Those who want to seek refuge with Daqin should keep silent, fearing that others will see their thoughts, and then they will not be able to walk out of this door.

Those who want to support the big man, who are willing to provide more manpower and food to support the court, are even more unwilling to show a hint of expression at this moment.Even if I am willing to support the imperial court, your imperial court has to give some benefits, right?

Needless to say, which one is more valued, the one given to others on the pole, or the one that they begged for?

pop

After clapping his hands, Liu Yan pointed to an aristocratic family beside him: "This is Wei Zhongdao, the son of the Hedong Wei family. Next, I would like nephew Zhong Daoxian to tell you about the experience of the Wei family."

At this moment, Wei Zhongdao was devoid of energy, he looked as if he had just recovered from a serious illness, and his face was pale. After Liu Yan finished speaking, he slowly raised his head, and then took off his shirt with a brush, revealing chest.

"ah!"

"This scar looks very fresh, it's still on the chest, who did it?"

"It looks like a knife wound, this knife is really cruel."

"It seems that nephew Zhongdaoxian is lucky, and his heart is also different from ordinary people, otherwise even the gods will be hard to save after this knife."

"Uncles and uncles, Zhongdao is polite."

After bowing, Wei Zhongdao began to sell miserably. In fact, it was not miserable, because the Wei family was really miserable: "My Wei family has been passed down for hundreds of years. No matter how many great achievements you have made, it is still no problem to guard the east of the river and protect the well-being of the people."

"On weekdays, we build bridges, repair roads, and be kind to others. In the whole of Hedong, no one mentions my Wei family without boasting, but this time, they met Tyrant Qin! Tyrant Qin directly used their Qin law to judge the Wei family, saying that the Wei family caressed about human life. It’s superficial and practical, and I don’t know how many people have been killed, this is pure slander!”

When Wei Zhongdao said the word slander, Wei Zhongdao looked extremely sad and angry, tears of grievance were about to fall, he took out his sleeve and rubbed against his eyes, smelling the pungent smell, the tears really flowed down.

Looking at this scene, no matter what everyone thought in their hearts, they all pretended to be sad, indignant, and serious on the surface.The Wei family is in such a miserable state, you still laugh at him to his face, is he too impersonal?

"As a result, there are hundreds of people in my Wei family, and no one is innocent! From the 80-year-old old man to the newborn child, all are guilty!"

"All the legitimate sons, those who do not plead guilty and do not surrender will be executed. Even if they plead guilty, they will be reduced to slaves. At best, they will just live."

"The old man died during the rebellion, the uncles died, the father also died, the mother committed suicide, and the younger sister was demoted to slavery. I fled all the way, and finally I was killed by a knife. If I hadn't been lucky, Couldn't come here at all."

Hedong Wei's house is over!

Such a powerful Wei family, it's over like this!

The Wei family, which was once extremely beautiful and powerful, with tens of thousands of tenants, thousands of private soldiers and nearly one million acres of land, is over!

"The Bohai Gao family is finished, and the Hedong Wei family is also finished. This puppet Qin really doesn't care about our family!"

At this moment, many patriarchs of the aristocratic families were angry, because they couldn't see Daqin's ways clearly, and they dared to abandon the aristocratic family, not just talking about it, but Daqin really did it!

Do you know the power of the family?

How do you govern such a big country without relying on us?

The imperial examination system, papermaking, and printing, after thinking of these three words, the hearts of the patriarchs are as if someone has poured cold water on their heads, and their hearts are so cold!

Could it be that the era of the aristocratic family has just passed away?

No!

Absolutely not!

"My Chen family is willing to send [-] private soldiers and [-] shi of food to support the imperial court in suppressing the rebellion."

"The Zhong family is willing to send a thousand private soldiers and thirty thousand shi for food!"

"The Yuan family is willing to send [-] private soldiers and [-] shi of grain!"

"The Yang family is willing to send [-] private soldiers and [-] shi of grain!"

One of the patriarchs stated on the spot that there were thousands of private soldiers, and hundreds of private soldiers and tens of thousands of shi grains. Together, there were [-] private soldiers and millions of shi grains.

The physical fitness of these private soldiers is excellent, the average level is [-] pounds of muscle, and they all have a good personal foundation. After rigorous military training, it only takes one month to become an elite soldier who can go to the battlefield .

If you take it as the backbone and bring the old with the new, you can easily pull out an army of 30 or even 50. It seems that many are very powerful, but Liu Yan knows that the aristocratic families have not shown their real family background, at least those who are blessed What the aristocratic family brought out was nothing more than a drop in the bucket.

Hey!

All of a sudden, Liu Yan let out a long sigh, Daqin came in menacingly, but the aristocratic families here in Dahan still had their own little thoughts.Even if it wasn't for Wei Zhongdao's personal statement, even such a little thing would not come now.

"This is His Majesty's edict, the top one is to allow the local prefects to take the initiative to recruit troops to defend themselves. Facing the threat of the puppet Qin, the prefects are allowed to recruit soldiers to train soldiers, make armor, make weapons, and even allow the prefects to accept orders. Officials below only need to report to the imperial court afterwards, and the imperial court will endorse the prefect and allow them to accept their fate."

At this moment, the originally noisy quiet room suddenly became quiet, the sound of a needle falling to the ground could be heard quietly, and the Patriarchs' sudden rapid breathing could be heard quietly!

what does this mean?

It means legal separatism!

It means that from now on, the place will be completely out of the control of the imperial court!

It means that everyone's opportunity has come!

Maybe in the future, our family will also make the emperor's throne for a while!

Chapter 30: Unspeakable loyalty and unspeakable filial piety

"This is real?"

"It's true!" Liu Yan nodded painfully and excitedly.

He is in pain because when this edict is spread throughout the world, the world will be in chaos. He is excited because he is also ambitious. Today, the surname of the world is Liu, and he is also surnamed Liu. A marquis has become an emperor, why can't he?

I heard that Yizhou is blessed with heavenly spirit, and it is a good place.

After everyone passed the edict in their hands, some thoughts that they should have were completely born in their hearts, their ambitions quickly nourished, and even their eyes began to change.

Liu Yan, who saw these things in his eyes, felt a little uncomfortable.However, Daqin is the most important and cruel enemy at present. If the Dahan wins, he can use the power of the great victory to play a rogue, and all these edicts will be rejected by then!

Anyway, the emperor of the old Liu family didn't play a scoundrel once or twice, his credit has long since gone bankrupt, and it's only one who can be deceived!

"This is the edict of acceptance from the prefect of Yanzhou East County. All the seals on it are there, and all necessary procedures have been completed. The only difference is the name. Once there is a name, it will be a reasonable and legal acceptance edict issued by the imperial court."

Then Liu Yan took out the edict and asked the family owners to check it out. After looking around, he returned it to him: "The auction will start now. The highest bidder will get it. It can be gold or silver, it can be private soldiers, it can be Food can also be treasures of heaven and earth, everything that is beneficial to the war, the imperial court wants it!"

"Let me introduce Dongjun. Dongjun is located in Yanzhou. It has a long history and a large population. Wuhua Tianbao has outstanding people..."

"One hundred thousand shi of grain, I want it from the governor of Dongjun!"

Who is this?

so annoying!

Shouting such a high price as soon as it comes up?

When the dust finally settled, a mere governor of Dongjun County auctioned off 30 shi of grain, which made Liu Yan once again realize the financial and material resources of the aristocratic family.

One prefect after another was sold by Liu Yan in an auction. When it was Runan County's turn, Yuan Feng directly took out 80 shi of grain and bought it at a sky-high price of 2 shi higher than No.[-]. down.

Food, population, strong men, ironware...

Later on, the aristocratic families showed their special abilities and directly began to connect with each other. We are all small aristocratic families. In terms of wealth and wealth, we can't compare to those big families, but we can join hands!

Let's unite together, several small families get together and buy a prefect. In the world from now on, if there is no real power prefect in the family, the family may decline!

When the small aristocratic families began to peddle the pot, the competition became more and more intense, and the bids became higher and higher, reaching the point where the big aristocratic families could no longer feel pain.

"The Yuan family sends out [-] private soldiers who have trained in stellar energy!"

"The Yuan family's price is high, is there a higher one?"

……

"The Yang family sends out [-] private soldiers who have trained in stellar energy!"

"The price of the Yang family is high, is there a higher one?"

The land of Sili, some counties and counties of Yanzhou, some counties and counties of Yuzhou, and a few places such as Nanyang County, the largest county in the world, the land of Guanzhong, and Hanzhong County are still in the hands of the imperial court.

With the strength of Guanzhong and Sili, and Hanzhong in hand, as long as the imperial court is willing, it is really easy to conquer Shu. With Shu and Guanzhong, this is the situation of the former Qin Dynasty.

Even if they sell their officials, the imperial court still has a way out.

Liu Yan was dumbfounded when he glanced at the statistics of food and soldiers. The sum of these things was several times more than the annual income of the imperial court!

This is the family?

Really moths!

It's a moth lying on the big man!

"In the end, the imperial court will set up a formation in Luoyang to help everyone break through. Everyone who breaks through in Luoyang needs to do three things for the imperial court, and this time only nine places are available on a first-come, first-served basis. If everyone wants, It's still the old rule, the one with the highest price wins!"

When all this was over, it was already night, and a large amount of supplies were continuously transported to Luoyang from various channels, and every time a batch of prefects arrived, a new one was changed.

As for the opinions of scholars and scholars, the imperial court no longer cared so much.

At night on the high platform, Emperor Ling sat here to worship the ancestors and communicate with the sky: "If you do this, the world will really be in chaos. Is the Way of Peace really so powerful?"

Even the ancestors stopped shouting, one can imagine how angry Emperor Ling was at the moment.No matter what the final result is, he, the emperor who publicly sold his officials and even the prefect, must be a foolish emperor in the history books.

"That's Emperor Bai's successor. You have also seen the system of Daqin. If you are the people at the bottom, if you are a local tyrant, if you are a poor family that has declined, would you choose Daqin or Dahan?"

"This is how ruling the world is like this. You must have your own foundation. The foundation of the great man lies in these aristocratic families. The aristocratic family supports the great man to make the current great man. Even though the aristocratic families have many privileges, they are essentially one with the great man. Lots of common interests."

"Compared to the Great Qin, it is impossible for the Great Han to use so many official positions to win over the low-level people and the wealthy and poor families, so the Great Han can only find ways to get the aristocratic families to contribute money and efforts. As long as we win this battle, everything will be fine."

And if this battle is lost, it doesn't matter much.

Local separatist regimes, warlords are rampant, ambitious people are everywhere, but the big men are already dead, what does this have to do with the big men?This is a headache for Daqin.

As long as the Great Qin is driven away, even if the Great Han perishes, it is acceptable to the sky. It is not that the Great Han has never perished before. Didn’t the Eastern Han perish back then?

The big deal is to rebel again afterwards, and then Sanxing Dahan.

On this point, Lingdi and Cangtian are of course in conflict.What can Lingdi do?Although he is the emperor, without the support of Luoyang, Chang'an, and Nanyang, how is he different from a puppet?

A few days later, Yuan Shao, the eldest son of Yuan's family, was placed under house arrest on the grounds of being unfilial. He did not approve of Yuan Feng's decision, thinking that it was wrong for a big man to do so.

Then Yuan Feng felt that he was disobedient and unfilial, so he put him under house arrest and kept him under strict supervision!There was a lot of trouble about this matter, and the whole Luoyang City knew about it, and those who watched the excitement opened their eyes wide to see what the Yuan family wanted to do!

A few days later, Yuan Shao took advantage of the fact that the guards were being careless and unprepared, suddenly rushed out of Yuan's house, and went to Yecheng with precious information.

After discovering Yuan Shao's traces, Yuan Feng was furious and directly reported to the court to remove Yuan Shao from the Yuan family tree. From today onwards, Yuan Shao is no longer a member of the Yuan family, nor does he have such a rebellious and unfilial son.

At the same time, under the lure of Yuan Feng's high reward, a large number of rangers chased and killed Yuan Shao all the way, chasing and intercepting him in various ways. Fortunately, Yuan Shao came to the edge of the Yellow River and jumped into the Yellow River before he died.

In the end, he was rescued by the ranger Dian Wei who happened to be passing by. Dian Wei swam across the Yellow River with him and fled to Yecheng. After waking up, Yuan Shao told all the information he knew.

He said that the Son of Heaven had no way, and he even publicly sold his official position to a high official of two thousand shi like the Taishou. In this way, the country will not be a country.

After his conscience found out, he decided to defect to Daqin.

"Although I'm sorry for the family at the moment, I'm sorry for the big man, and I seem to be disloyal and unfilial, but in the long run, my behavior is true loyalty and true filial piety! Only the Great Qin can save the world, and only the Great Qin can make the people Our lives have changed for the better!"

Unspeakable loyalty Yuan Benchu!

Filial piety is unspeakable Yuan Benchu!

After the rebellious son Yuan Shao was born, Yuan Feng fell ill on the bed and was bedridden.After seeing Yuan Feng's operation, other aristocratic families expressed that they learned it, learned it!

Not long after, Cao Hong of the Cao family learned the news that the Cao family had bought the prefect while eating, and threw down the chopsticks in his hand angrily: "If a man wants the world, he should ride a horse and hold a weapon with his strength." Acquisition is the key, where can we give each other gifts or even purchase in private?"

After speaking, he overturned the dining table in front of him and went straight to Yecheng. After the old man of the Cao family heard the news, he vomited blood for three liters and fell into a coma. Then Cao Hong was expelled from the family tree by the Cao family, declaring that he would kill him from now on. Then hurry up!

After Xiahou Yuan of Xiahou's family heard about Cao Hong's deeds, he quietly stole the ancestral precious bow and divine arrow, and left Xiahou's house on a BMW. Publicly ordering to allow local separatism means that the emperor has wronged the people of the world, not that the people of the world are sorry for the emperor, and I will represent the people of the world to seek justice from the emperor of the Han family!"

Then he was expelled from the genealogy and treated as above.
