Marquis Lu Lu Chan left Zhaocheng with Luo Wuji's autographed letter, and Marquis Hanlin of Anyang left Zhaocheng in great shock.
Luo Wuji was staring at the green trees outside the window. Luo Sheng asked softly: "Father, what are you looking at?"
Luo Wuji recalled what Lu Chan said about the petition. Lu Chan himself might not have known that this simple petition would become a trigger.
Whoever created the figurines has no descendants?
Hearing his son's voice, he said calmly: "My father has seen the future. The unpredictable future may be a future filled with rivers of blood."
Luo Sheng was horrified and said: "Father, what does this mean? Is the situation in the world so bad? Can't we stop it?"
When Luo Wuji heard this, he glanced at Luo Sheng, shook his head in disappointment and said: "My father is a warrior, so it is understandable that he has poor political qualifications. I never thought that you might as well be my father.
Since the death of the golden generation of the uncle, the family has been a group of weirdos for two consecutive generations. The father is a commander, and the son is a war general. The men and women in the family are either immersed in classics or studying tools in the workshop. .
The talents most needed for governing the country are not considered high. The talents of counties and counties are acceptable, but the talents of kings and assistants are not.
well.
Is it possible that he is going to follow the old story of his ancestors? "
The ancestor's blessing can ensure that Luo's son and Luo's daughter are above average in all abilities, but what they are good at is random.
Luo's son and Luo's daughter are both talents, and can even be said to be geniuses. It's a pity that ancient society did not give them so many opportunities to show off.
Scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, because there were only so many useful professions in ancient times. For example, if a computer genius was born in ancient times, or if an e-sports genius was born in ancient times, they would be immediately abolished.
Luo Sheng was very ashamed when he heard this. All the Luo family members wanted to have the ability of Duke Wenxuan and become a person like King Wen.
Luo Wuji saw this and said softly: "A Sheng, being a father is just a casual comment, so there is no need to put too much pressure on me.
With your talents, it is enough to protect the family. How rare are people like the Second Duke Wenxuan and King Wen who can leave their names in history throughout the ages?
Moreover, the strength of the family is enough to defeat anyone, and there are also children in the clan who are worthy of big responsibilities. If not, we can still marry those talented women, and we will be invincible. "
The Luo family is not only a direct lineage, there are also great talents among non-direct lineages, just like Guan Zhong in the past.
After Luo Wuji finished speaking, he closed his eyes and waved his hand. Luo Sheng closed the window and walked out of the house. The sun shone on his body, which was very warm. Thinking back to what his father had just said, he murmured softly: "A future full of blood." , do you mean between the imperial court and the refugees in Guandong?"
He frowned slightly and thought to himself: "With the prestige of the imperial court, as long as you send a general and a talented person who is good at governance, you can pacify the refugees and there will be no bloodshed. Why would my father say this?" "
Luo Sheng doesn't know the answer yet, but he will see it with his own eyes in the near future.
…
Lu Chan left Zhaocheng with a solemn face and uncontrollable worry in his brows, "I hope that the heads of the families will not be too stupid and short-sighted. Sister, I hope what you said will come true. Anyone who wants to harm the Han Dynasty can do it." , ask about the sword in my hand."
The reason why Lu Chan dared to persuade the princes from all over the world with a letter was naturally not simply because of Luo Wuji's prestige, but because of a concept that ran through the hearts of the world.
The first person he visited was the Zhang family of Xinzheng, a descendant of Liuhou Zhang Liang, who was transferred from Liuxian to Xinzheng.
These largest feudal families all have one characteristic, that is, their identity is represented by the name of their country, such as the Han family in Huaiyin, the Han family in Anyang, the Lu family in Jimo, etc.
The second-ranking one is the Wuwei Jia family represented by the county name. The highest one is naturally the Luo family. There is only one in the world and there is no other family.
Lu Chan rushed to Xinzheng without a moment's rest. Xinzheng was once the royal capital of Korea. Later, Liu Ruyi was sealed here and passed down for two generations. During Liu Che's period, he was expelled from the country and moved to Nanyang County.
The Zhang family was sent to guard here, which shows the trust the royal family had in Zhang family.
Zhang Chen, the family member of the Zhang family, originally did not want to meet Lu Chan. After all, they were the largest guarding family. It was not good to meet openly like this, as there was suspicion of collusion. However, when he saw that he was carrying a letter from Zhaogong Luo Wuji, he came out to meet him.
After some pleasantries, Lu Chan said his purpose of coming, "Junhou, you know the situation in Guandong. Even the volcanic magma cannot be compared with what it is now. The Han Dynasty has reached a precarious situation. As a member of the Han Dynasty, Hou, protect the ancestral temple, who else but me."
Zhang Chen laughed when he heard this and said, "Marquis Lu is joking."
“In the past, King Su, King Jian, eliminated the Yin and Shang Dynasties, followed ancient etiquette, and canonized the descendants of the Shang royal family as Dukes of Song, so later generations thought that the descendants of the Shang Dynasty could be passed down.
Take a good look, the royal family may have survived, but the nobles of the Shang royal family were wiped out. How can the old nobles of the Yin and Shang Dynasties survive?
After the fall of the Qin Dynasty, where were the old nobles of Zhou Dynasty?
Even the royal family has never seen it!
By the time Emperor Taizu and Emperor Gao were able to bring peace to the troubled times, none of the Qin Dynasty's clan members, relatives, senior officials, or dignitaries could survive.
Lord, how can there be any intact eggs when the nest is overturned?
If the Han Dynasty overthrows, the fate of a powerful family like mine will surely be extremely miserable!
Moreover, Emperor Gao gave our ancestors food, clothing, wine, meat, gold, silver, cloth, and feudal states, allowing us to re-establish our ancestors' ancestral temples. What a great grace this is.
During the reign of Emperor Xiaohui and Emperor Xiaowen, they adopted the policy of controlling feudalism, establishing relatives among the people, and permanently consolidating our feudal lords and vassals. What kind of trust is this?
Emperor Xiaowu repeatedly rewarded us and transferred us to the most important cities to guard. Many times in ancient and modern times, only the ancestors of King Wu of Zhou who were granted property in Qi can be compared.
Even if the river is as thin as a belt, even if Mount Tai is as flat as the ground, your wealth will not change. The blessings will be on your descendants, and you will love and care for your descendants.
This is the oath the Han Dynasty made to us. Has it ever wavered over the past hundred years?
No!
Then can the oaths of our princes be changed? "
Zhang Chen immediately said after hearing this: "Of course not! Whoever dares to break the oath will be despised by the world!"
Lu Chan sighed: "Yes.
Both of our families were once royal family members.
Different from others!
With such grace, how could one watch the Han Dynasty collapse and ignore it?
Both your family and I were once nobles of the Pre-Qin Dynasty. Do you want to experience the tragedy of the destruction of various kingdoms again?
Please consider this carefully. "
Lu Chan first played the emotional card and focused the matter on the oath, and then nakedly revealed the tragic scene of the dynasty change.
It reminded Zhang Chen of some bad things, things recorded in family classics.
Lu Chan looked at Zhang Chen's changing face and remembered what his sister said, "If you want to persuade them, just shout in their ears, the country and the country are not just a matter of the royal family, but are closely related to all our nobles. You were a noble in the Han Dynasty, and without you you are nothing in the Han Dynasty. If you do this, they will be happy."
Zhang Chen's face changed for a long time, and he forced himself to smile and said: "Is Marquis Lu worried about the refugees in Guandong?
The foundation of the Han Dynasty is like a towering tree that has grown for thousands of years. It is so strong that it can still stand tall even if there are strong winds and heavy rains.
The refugees in Kanto are like the breeze, blowing at most the branches and leaves of giant trees. They are like rootless duckweeds in the water. They can only drift with the current and cannot shake the big man. What you said is too alarmist. "
Lu Chan knew that Zhang Chen had recognized it from the bottom of his heart and was just being tough with his words. He relaxed in his heart and smiled angrily: "My lord, you are a wise man and have the wisdom of your ancestors.
It’s okay to deceive others with your words, but don’t deceive yourself. If you deceive others, others will just laugh and pass away. If you deceive yourself, sit back and wait for death. When the refugees rise up and invade the Hou Kingdom, will you still Can it be indifferent? "
The expression on Zhang Chen's face suddenly collapsed. Lu Chan's words really spoke to his heart, because Zhang had personally experienced the things Lu Chan said, and it was only a hundred years since the fall of Korea. Years ago, that tragic image was still in the family books.
He lamented: "O Marquis Lu, what you said is so correct.
What other reasons can I have to refute you?
The Zhang family used to be a noble in South Korea. When the Qin Dynasty was established, the country was destroyed, and the family suffered countless casualties and became common people. If Emperor Gao had not risen up, where would my name, Zhang, still exist in the world?
Please bring the documents and I will print them for you! "
The princes have their own golden seals, which are issued together with the golden seal book and the treasures of the princes. Words cannot be proven, and the seals shall prevail.
Lu Chan was overjoyed and quickly took out the documents and pressed the seal of the Marquis of Xinzheng. Everything is difficult at the beginning, but with the first one, the rest will be much easier to handle.
…
As Lu Chan expected, the rest was much easier to deal with. Even though he was hesitant, seeing so many princes, especially the most prominent ones, on it, he dispelled his worries.
When the document was sent to Chang'an and arrived at the closed bus station, the prime minister was shocked. He opened it himself, stamped the bus order seal, and presented the document to Changle Palace.
The world is shocked!
————
The Han Dynasty had a relatively smooth institution for officials and people to speak out, called the Gongche. Those who submitted letters to express their opinions were received by the Gongche Ling. After Emperor Han killed the virtuous and upright scholar who wrote the letter, he closed the Gongche Ling.
The petition incident jointly initiated by the Han Dynasty nobles forced the public bus order to be used, which was known in history as the "bus petition".
The letter written on the bus is one of the major historical events that cannot be ignored in the study of the political system of the Han Dynasty. It marks that the mixing of family and country consciousness has become an ideological consensus, which has dealt a heavy blow to the ideology of "I am the country" and caused considerable ideological damage. Influence.
The prestige of the royal family of the Han Dynasty suffered a heavy blow, which revealed the huge divisions within the ruling class. The contradictions became increasingly irreparable and triggered a series of political events. ——"The Rise and Fall of the Han Dynasty"
