Subverted This is the Emperor Chat Group

When Chen Tong saw this, his eyes were full of disdain. Is this level a primary school student?

Chen Tong:

"Of course your analysis is completely wrong!"

"It must be right for Empress Lu to wantonly entrust princes and kings with different surnames!"

"Hou Hou did this, which made an indelible contribution to stabilizing the situation in the early Han Dynasty."

"Only a layman would think that it was wrong for Empress Lu to divide the feudal lords, but an expert will know that this matter can fully demonstrate Empress Lu's political talent!"

………………

what! ?

Chongzhen was dumbfounded at the time.

He wiped his eyes vigorously. He thought he had misread it, but when he read Chen Tong's message again, he found that he was not mistaken.

Chongzhen's mentality at that time was about to collapse.

Self-hanging southeast branch:

"How is this possible?"

"Everyone knows that Empress Lu entrusts princes and kings with different surnames, that is the monopoly of foreign relatives, and that is a disaster for the country and the people!"

"How can it be right?"

"How could it be the embodiment of Empress Lu's political talent?"

"Shouldn't foreign relatives be dictatorships?"

………………

Zhu Di was also confused at the moment, he was pulling his hair vigorously, feeling extremely depressed.

Because he had the same idea as Chongzhen.

Whether it was the master who taught him history at the beginning, or the civil and military of the current Manchu Dynasty, or the common people, it is said that Empress Lu wantonly divided the princes, which is definitely the beginning of Empress Lu's evil government.

Why did he come to Chen Tong's place and think that Empress Lu did the right thing!

He's really going to crack!

So Zhu Di looked back at Yao Guangxiao, Prince Zhu Gaoxu and others, and asked his doubts.

Zhu Gaoxu scratched his head, this time he learned how to behave, he no longer answered directly like Tie Hanhan, but patted his elder brother Zhu Gaochi on the shoulder, motioning for Zhu Gaochi to answer.

Zhu Gaochi thought for a while, and then said with certainty: "It's absolutely wrong for Empress Lu to entrust all the Lus wantonly!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Gaoxu punched his elder brother Zhu Gaochi directly, and said cursingly:

"You really did what I thought, so I'll beat you up for our father!"

"Needless to say, you must be wrong."

After the prince Zhu Gaoxu finished the beating, he looked relieved, then turned his head and smiled and said to Zhu Di: Father, you don't need to do anything this time, my son will help you! "

Zhu Di has black hair, and Empress Xu next to her is also standing on her head with phoenix eyebrows. Your brother is so weak, how dare you do it?

Also, you think the same as your brother, you are wrong, are you proud?

asshole!

Empress Xu and Zhu Di looked at each other, and then they rushed out in tacit understanding.

Ah, I hit!

Zhu Gaoxu was beaten so loudly that he was about to cry, he felt that it was too hard for him!

Whatever you do is wrong!

673. Is it Wrong to Entrust Zhulu? You Don’t Understand

In the chat group, the emperors were all thinking about the issue of enfeoffing the Lus after Empress Lu.

Li Shimin was very conflicted at this moment. In his heart, he should have subconsciously believed that it was definitely Empress Lu's fault to entrust the princes.

However, Chen Tong slapped him too much. In addition, he has been learning from Li Yuan recently, so he has a deeper understanding of the emperor's mind.

Therefore, he also felt that Empress Lu's entrustment of Zhulu must have other effects, so he didn't express his opinion for a while.

Instead, you are constantly debating with yourself, and the old and new concepts are constantly intertwined, but you just can't use the new knowledge to completely overwhelm the inherent concepts.

And at this moment, Chen Tong spoke.

Chen Tong:

"As long as someone says in a very affirmative tone: as long as it is a foreign relative's monopoly, it is wrong.

Then I can also say with a very certain tone that this person is definitely a layman.

First of all, the person who said this did not even understand the official selection system in ancient Yanhuang before the imperial examination system appeared.

There is no such examination method as the imperial examination system to select officials, whether it is a top-down expropriation system or a bottom-up inspection system.

The officials you recommend and elect are basically either relatives of the emperor or the children of meritorious officials.

You choose and choose, relying on your parents and blood relationship. What is the difference between relatives and non-relatives?

The only difference is that the minister feels that it is unfair to choose a foreign relative, that is, the emperor wants to engage in nepotism.

But if you think about it carefully, if you don't choose foreign relatives, then you can only choose the children of meritorious officials. Isn't this nepotism?

Isn't this based on blood relationship?

After all, it's all the same!

But the emperor chose his relatives, and these relatives sat on the emperor's side.

And if the emperor chooses the children of heroes, then these children of heroes will sit on the minister's side.

Who do you think the emperor should choose? "

………………

Only then did Chongzhen suddenly realize, he hammered his head, and cursed himself for being exposed by his inherent thinking again.

Self-hanging southeast branch:

"That's right, before the imperial examination system appeared, the way of selecting officials was always in the hands of the nobles."

"And those who are selected can only be those recognized by the nobles."

"Then no matter how you choose, you are all nobles!"

"It's nothing more than nobles who are related to the emperor, or nobles who are related to ministers."

"It has nothing to do with civilians."

"Those ministers always say that the emperor reuses his relatives. Could it be that the emperor should not reuse his relatives, but their sons?"

"Aren't these ministers just trying to overwhelm the imperial power with their power?"

The more Chongzhen talked, the clearer his thinking became. Looking at the dynasties that appeared before the imperial examination system, he understood that the buttocks of those ministers were crooked.

…………

Li Shimin was also shocked.

Looking at the ancient system of selecting officials from this perspective, we can actually see that the imperial power has been fighting frantically with the ministerial power.

Qiangu Li Er (the hero and the sinner):

"If you look at Sima Qian this way, his butt is actually crooked!"

"Sima Qian himself is a son of a wealthy family. He said that he can't reuse his relatives, so he can only reuse the descendants of the aristocratic family."

"Sure enough, the ass determines the head. This is the unbreakable truth."

"Just like Sima Qian, he can't get rid of the restrictions of his status, and he can't look at problems outside his class, let alone other ministers?"

………………

Li Yuan nodded in satisfaction, and commented on the emperor with Chen Tong in the group. Many people's professional level has improved a lot!

Especially Chongzhen, this kid is very studious.

And Li Shimin also became more and more familiar with the art of the emperor.

The mediocre Patriarch Li (Heroic Lord in Troubled Times):

"So at any time, you must look at the world from the perspective of interests. Only when you understand the interest chain behind the intricate relationship can you truly see the essence of the world."

"Then take a closer look at how the ministers persuaded the emperor. Their attitude towards relatives was surprisingly consistent, and they believed that the emperor should not be nepotism!"

"However, when these ministers recommend their children and students to be officials, why don't they mention nepotism?"

"At this time, these ministers will be very ethical and say: As a gentleman, the most important thing to do is: to promote the virtuous and not avoid relatives!"

"Isn't this a double standard?"

"Emperors should avoid relatives when they promote talents, and ministers should not avoid relatives when they promote talents."

"After all, it's a struggle for the power of the ministers and the power of the emperor!"

"The courtiers should feel that the emperor is a loner, and should not develop his own power, but should rule from the bow."

"Now, do you still think that it was wrong for Empress Lu to entrust all the Lus?"

…………

Zhu Di didn't hit Zhu Gaoxu now. After hearing Li Yuan's explanation, he finally understood.

It turns out that all day long they shouted that their relatives could not be reused, but the ministers wanted to reuse their children.

Don't be too strong with this double standard!

Chongzhen's head is very confused now, and his worldview has been shattered once again.

Is this the reason why ministers always advocate not to reuse foreign relatives?

It turns out that these ministers are not considering the family and the country fundamentally, but just to limit the imperial power with the power of the ministers!
