When Li Zexuan and Mo Lingwei discussed profound issues about microscopes, Chang'an City, the Imperial Palace.
In the court hall, a good news set off a storm here!
"I received good news yesterday. Guancheng County was defeated the night before yesterday. Li Jing and Liu Rengui, who was lurking in the Bianzhou army in Guancheng County, cooperated inside and outside. They attacked the city without spending a single soldier. The Cui family guards and the governor's office All the rebels have been killed.
The three direct descendants of the Cui family of Qinghe, the Zheng family of Xingyang, and the Cui family of Boling, as well as the governor of Zhengzhou Pan Zhenyue, the governor of the governor's office Cui Quan, and the relevant prisoners in Guancheng County will all be escorted back to Beijing! The officers and soldiers of the three armies returned to the court early this morning! So far, the crisis in Luoyang has been resolved, the rebellion in Zhengzhou has been put down, and the turmoil in Henan has been resolved! "
In the morning, after finishing the daily affairs of the officials, Li Er announced such a huge piece of news with a smile!
All the officials were in an uproar!
In the past, when the imperial court sent troops to go on an expedition, once good news came from the front line, the soldiers who delivered the good news would usually shout "xxx is a great victory" when they entered the city. Therefore, generally well-informed officials could get the news before going to court. I know that the imperial army is victorious on the front line!
But now, all the good news comes so quietly, and all the civil and military officials in Chang'an City are not aware of it in advance. Not only that, the speed at which the good news is transmitted is even more unbelievable!
Fang Xuanling stood up, cupped his hands and said: "Cui Junchuo and others ignored the emperor's favor and committed rebellion. They committed a heinous crime. They are really to blame for themselves. Now that the rebellion has been put down, I congratulate you, Your Majesty!"
"I congratulate you, Your Majesty!"
All civil and military officials bowed their heads and congratulated loudly.
Li Er nodded and said: "The aristocratic clans arose at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. In the previous dynasty, seven major families were formed, headed by the Boling Cui family. But now Qinghe Cui, Xingyang Zheng, and Boling Cui are going against heaven and causing trouble. You no longer deserve to enjoy the glory of a thousand-year-old family. Therefore, I want to rebuild the "Clan Chronicle" and exclude all three of these families. I will leave this matter to you, Fang Aiqing, to preside over it. All officials in the court can accept it as long as you need it. When you are dispatched, you must praise the loyal and the virtuous and demote the traitors~!
In addition, in recent years, the phenomenon of selling marriages has become more and more serious in those aristocratic families. Every time they marry a girl from another clan, they must ask for a lot of money. They regard more as more money, and make contracts based on numbers. This is the same as that of merchants, which is very harmful to customs and violates the rules of etiquette. . I hope that the revised "Clan Chronicle" can completely eradicate such bad habits! "
"this"
However, all the officials were at a loss what to do after being hit by Li Er's "combination punches".
Clan, the so-called "officials have the world, and the family has the family", that is, "the family". Since Cao Pi implemented the nine-rank Zhongzheng system, the official election system has been controlled by the family. They select officials entirely based on their family standing. , to put it simply, if your ancestor was a high official, then you will definitely be an official. If your ancestor is a pauper, even if you are a genius, I'm sorry, but please step aside.
This method of selecting officials, from the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties onwards, created a situation where "there are no poor families in the upper class and no clans in the lower class". At the same time, in terms of marriage, the aristocratic families also considered themselves noble and never intermarry with the poor families. It can be said that the family status has completely become The standard for judging a person's moral level and marriage.
Under this situation, the study of genealogy came into being. Large families compiled family trees and genealogies for themselves one after another, and assessed family status in various places. This practice was also protected by the government at the time.
After more than 200 years of the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, the power of the aristocratic families had been severely weakened by the Sui Dynasty, and they no longer had the same style as before. Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, Yang Jian, abolished the nine-rank Zhongzheng system, created the imperial examination system, and experienced the changes of the Sui Dynasty. After the turmoil at the end of the year, the family suffered a serious blow;
But by the Tang Dynasty, the Shandong gentry headed by Cui, Lu, Zheng, Li, and Wang had been deeply entrenched and still had certain power despite being hit by the peasant war. Many ministers in the court were vying to marry into the Shandong gentry, but the Shandong gentry still maintained their transcendent social status.
Among the people, the reputation and status of the Cui family far exceed that of the royal family!
This is something Li Er especially can't stand!
Now, with the remaining power of pacifying the three major families, Li Er decided to revise the "Chronicles of the Clan" and reaffirm the transcendent status of the Li family in Longxi in the world. Who dares to disagree~?
Sometimes, although the butterfly effect can change the direction of the wheel of history, some historical events will still happen, but they will happen a little earlier!
According to official historical records, in the sixth year of Zhenguan, Li Er and Fang Xuanling had a long conversation. In this conversation, the topic of marriage customs at that time was mentioned. They believed that the phenomenon of clan marriage selling was serious and harmful to the folk customs. The court should Start reforming. This long conversation between the monarch and his ministers opened the prelude to the reconstruction of the "Chronicles of the Clan".
Immediately afterwards, Li Shimin gave specific instructions: ordering court officials to search for clan genealogies all over the world, check their authenticity based on relevant existing historical records, promote the loyal and the virtuous, and demote the traitors.
This is a huge project. With the emperor's order, the talented people around Li Shimin began to take active action. Those who participated in the revision of "Clan Chronicles" included Wei Zheng, Fang Xuanling, Gao Shilian, Wei Ting, and Cen Wenwen. , Linghu Defen, Yu Shinan and others. ,
In the twelfth year of Zhenguan, the "Clan Chronicle" was completed, "there are 293 surnames, and there are 1,651 families". Li Er's instructions were basically implemented, with the royal family as the leader, followed by relatives, and Boling Cui was demoted. For the third grade. However, at that time, the people did not much recognize the "Clan Chronicle" revised by Li Er, and the status of the Shandong nobles still exceeded that of the royal family!
Now, with the remaining power of his victory, Li Er has started the work of rebuilding "Chronicles of the Clan" ahead of schedule. The final result may be different from the original historical result!
"Old minister, I will obey the imperial edict and will do my best to rebuild the Clan Chronicle!"
After Fang Xuanling heard Li Er's order, he was stunned for a long time. After he reacted, he quickly stepped forward and bowed.
Five surnames and seven hopes, eliminating two surnames and three sects, this means that from today on, there will only be three surnames and four looks in the world! And there are still three surnames and four looks, headed by the Li royal family!
Such a big event will definitely shake the world~!
All the officials were awestruck. Li Er had only been on the throne for two years, but he could achieve such civil and military skills. Those officials who were still thinking about climbing to the top of the family had to weigh it in their hearts at this moment~!
………………………
In the morning, Li Er ordered people to post a notice about the great victory of Guancheng County in Chang'an City. The people looked at it and rushed to tell each other. Word of mouth spread that the three great families of Qinghe Cui, Xingyang Zheng, and Boling Cui were involved in rebellion, and all of them were killed. The news of Li Jing's annihilation spread like a gust of wind throughout Chang'an City in a short period of time, and was also spreading rapidly to surrounding counties!
"The Cui family of Qinghe, the Zheng family of Xingyang, and the Cui family of Boling were all wiped out? These are all millennium-old families, how can you say they are gone?"
"Yes! In the past, from the officials to the people, it was the highest honor to marry a girl from the five surnames, especially the daughter of the Cui family. Even the prime minister of the dynasty couldn't get it if he wanted to marry him! But now this Cui Once the family falls, the daughter of the Cui family will probably be sent to the Jiaofang Division, right? Hehe!"
"Hmph! Let me tell you, both the Cui family and the Zheng family deserve this! Especially the Cui family. Last year, you all knew about the Cui family's mistress, Mrs. Wang, right? That evil woman made the servants of the house into human pigs. How cruel? If it weren’t for some kind-hearted person who exposed this matter, Wang would probably still be at large in his heart!"
"You're right. The Cui family is not only rich and unkind, but also vicious and cruel. It's better to destroy this family as soon as possible! Who would be proud to marry a girl with the fifth surname now? In my opinion, if you want to earn a lifetime of glory and wealth, you must finally The best way is to get admitted to the Yanhuang Academy, or marry a girl from the Yong'an Hou family! This Yong'an Hou is a new member of the court, rich, powerful, powerful, and capable, so he will definitely have a bright future!"
"Pfft! Although Marquis Yong'an got married last year, he still has no heirs, let alone a daughter. Who are you going to marry?"
"Hey! What are you afraid of? Doesn't Marquis Yong'an have a younger sister who is waiting to be married? If he can't be a son-in-law, he can be a younger sister-in-law!"
"Bah! You're such a dirty thing! You're thinking of marrying Marquis Yongan's sister before she even has hairpins? You're so shameless!"
"That's right! Even if I get my haircut, it won't be your turn, Hu San! The Marquis of Yong'an is talented in both literary and military matters, and is extremely talented. When choosing a sister-in-law, he would only choose a man like me who is graceful, handsome, and suave!"
"Bah! Qin Chengfeng, you kid is even more shameless!"
.
Li Zexuan, who is far away in Yunshan and does not care about worldly affairs, would never have thought that people would sit at home and watch pots come from the sky. Moreover, if he knew what the people were talking about, he would definitely be amazed by the "power of crooking buildings" of these ancient people. ", and vomiting three liters of blood was obviously talking about the imperial court's suppression of rebellion and the annihilation of the three major families, but why did it finally talk about Li Zexuan's finding his brother-in-law?
Isn't this crooked building ability too terrifying?
"Brother, brother, when will Tiedan come back?"
Lan'er, who had no idea that she had become the "best wife" among the people, saw Li Zexuan coming back from outside and asked quickly.
Li Zexuan smiled and touched the little girl's head and said, "What? Lan'er, do you have something to do with Tiedan?"
Lan'er moved Li Zexuan's big hand away from her head. She felt that Li Zexuan treated her like a child, which was disrespectful to her. The little girl frowned and said:
"It's nothing. I just went to the academy to play recently. Without Tiedan, it was very boring! Brother Chouniu will only bully Lan'er, hum~! Brother, just tell Lan'er when Tiedan will come back!"
After saying that, the little girl pouted proudly, which looked really cute.
When Li Zexuan heard this, he felt helpless. Considering that Cheng Chumo's urinary nature, he would probably feel uncomfortable if he didn't tease Lan'er. "Tiedan has left Zhengzhou with the army today. It is estimated that he will be ready in another six or seven days." I'm back! Don't worry, Lan'er! My brother recently showed you something interesting!"
Lan'er's eyes lit up and she immediately became interested. She said enthusiastically: "What is it?"
Li Zexuan smiled and said: "Haha, I can't tell you now, but you will know when the time comes~!"
"Brother stinky! You're still showing off~! Hmph!"
"Chief, Chief, Your Majesty is going to the academy! Please go there quickly!"
In the afternoon, Li Zexuan was sunbathing in the front yard when Mo Zhong suddenly came to the door in a hurry and said.
Li Zexuan stood up quickly and said, "Okay! I'll be there right away~!"
In any case, Li Er is the most powerful person in this land. When he comes to Yanhuang Academy, Li Zexuan, the head of the mountain, must be present. This is the same as the leader inspecting the work.
Half a quarter of an hour later, Li Zexuan arrived at Yanhuang Academy. After asking about Li Er's current location, he quickly followed him.
Lao Li was currently in the corridor outside the classroom of Class 1, apparently secretly listening to the lecture of the teacher inside. Li Zexuan was about to salute, but Li Er waved his hand to stop him as if he had eyes behind his forehead.
Li Zexuan understood what Li Er meant and stopped talking. So, the dean of Yanhuang Academy and the mountain chief of Yanhuang Academy lay down on the window outside the classroom and began to eavesdrop on the teacher's lecture. activity".
This class is a "Physics" class. Mo Huai was originally teaching Physics in Class 1, but Mo Huai is currently busy building dams and can't get away at all, so all Mo Huai's affairs in the academy have been temporarily suspended. It has been handed over to Mo Chui. This person is also the target of Mo Huai's training and is very likely to become the next Mo family giant!
Li Zexuan also secretly tested Mo Chui's ability a while ago and found that whether it was his mastery of physics knowledge or his ability to teach in class, this young man was basically on par with Mo Huai. Based on this, Li Zexuan gradually felt relieved. Come!
"At the beginning of school, all of you students must have seen the teacher personally demonstrate the telegraph machine. You only know that the telegraph machine is amazing. It can transmit information over a long distance, but do you know why it can transmit information? It relies on What transmits information? Before understanding this, you must first understand a phenomenon - electromagnetism!
Yes, you heard it right, magnetism is generated by electricity. First of all, you should have seen magnets. The compass Shan Chang made before used the characteristics of the magnetic needle under the action of the geomagnetic field. The south pole of the magnetic needle points to the north pole of the geomagnetic field. To realize the function of indicating direction, this is called magnetism.
Regarding electricity, the telegraph machine used by the mountain leader was powered by electricity. Electricity and magnetism are two different things, but who would have thought that they could convert each other under special conditions?
Well, not only can you not think of it, I can’t understand it either! But Shan Zhang thought of it. To tell you the truth, sometimes I am also curious about why Shan Zhang can hold so many novel things in his mind. If you just take out a little bit of knowledge in his brain, others may not be able to study it for a lifetime. .
All right! Closer to home, in this lesson, I will show you how electricity is converted into a magnetic field."
Now the teaching progress of the academy has reached the electromagnetic section. Mo Chui stood on the podium and talked without noticing the two big "boss" eavesdropping outside the window. His lecture was serious rather than funny, and he was very capable. Make people listen.
"Come with me~!"
I don't know how long it took, but Li Zexuan was already immersed in Mo Chui's lecture. Li Er next to him whispered at this moment.
"Yes! Your Majesty!"
