    no, 244 clan history

    "Is the Immortal Master worried about those aristocratic families?" Li Shimin asked when he saw Huang Junming's pensive look.

    Huang Junming heard Li Shimin's voice and slowly turned his thoughts. Although he had thought clearly about the cause and effect in his mind, he still couldn't say anything to Li Shimin. He just smiled and said: "If the family doesn't help, then don't help.  Everything in the world has a cause and effect. When Pindao mentioned the education reform to His Majesty, the cause was planted. But this family does not help and even turns against my Taoist family in the future. This is the result. There is nothing to worry about. "

    Huang Junming's words also reminded Huang Junming of his thoughts. The relationship and events between the family and the family are Huang Junming's cause and effect, and it is not Li Shimin's cause and effect. Presumably the citizens there must bear the cause and effect not only to the family, but also to the family.  Taoism.  I can't say these things out loud, but I understand them all.

    "Haha, the immortal master can see clearly." Li Shimin heard the hidden meaning of Huang Junming's words and said dryly. Then he thought for a moment and continued: "The clan can be roughly divided into four regions, each with its own characteristics.  The Shandong gentry is still married, the Jiangzuo gentry is still a person, the Guanzhong gentry is still crowned, and the Daibei gentry is still noble. However, the Jiangzuo and Daibei gentry have declined. It is not something to be afraid of. On the contrary, Cui, Lu, and Zheng  Although the Shandong gentry headed by Li and Wang have been hit by successive wars, they are still deeply rooted. Even my subordinates Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, and Li Fang are vying to marry the Shandong gentry. Alas." Speaking of this, Li Shimin said softly  sighed.  It seems that he feels deep pity for his right-hand men.

    Huang Junming didn't know the meaning of Li Shimin's words. He seemed to be telling him Li Shimin's views on the clan, and he seemed to be talking to himself.  Although Huang Junming was a little confused, he still kept listening.

    "The Shandong gentry's tentacles have reached out to the Tang government, people, scholars, business, military and other aspects, which makes me a little worried. I know that although my Li family is now a royal family, it is also essentially a powerful family.  But after all, it is my Li family that rules the world. Not them! Not the Cui family, not the Lu family, not the Zheng family. It is my surname, the Li family who grew up in the land of Guanlong! I know you, Master Immortal, understand what I am saying.  These. Because it is the Li family that rules the world, I must let other aristocratic families decline. Only by letting them can the Li family continue!" Li Shimin said with some excitement, and his voice gradually became louder.  The veins on his neck are all prominent.

    This is for Huang Junming.  Although it has nothing to do with me, I can understand it.  However, Li Shimin can classify his Li family into a wealthy family.  And he told me without any care that he suppressed the family for the sake of the throne and rule, which made him feel a little emotional.  This kind of statement is an inevitable choice for every emperor in this era.  Huang Junming has nothing to despise or disagree with, but even if someone thinks of such words, they can only think about it. If he says it out loud, I'm afraid it will turn everything upside down again.

    "Immortal Master. You may not know that you come from the upper world. Everyone in the world thinks that the Cui family is the most popular surname in the world. As an emperor and a royal family, the Li family is only third-rate. I am not willing to accept it! Since  If everyone’s thoughts cannot be distinguished, then I won’t allow you to change your thoughts. Besides, what else did the Shandong gentry do besides having more various classics? Not to mention the marriages between each other to consolidate their status.  Even their family's money is many times richer than my Tang treasury? But they would rather let the copper coins rust in the treasury than use the money to defend against foreign enemies. Help the people! I don't know! Why?  Everyone in the world will respect them!" Li Shimin was quite angry about this.

    Li Tang’s family background was not rich, which is still quite rare in Chinese historical dynasties.  Some historical books record that when Li Yuan raised an army, the total number of soldiers was only 30,000. When Chang'an was captured, there were only 200,000 soldiers and horses.  Even though Li Yuan was responsible for the logistics of Sui Yang Emperor Yang Guang's conquest of Goryeo, the family really couldn't afford it.  Furthermore, Li Yuan always paid attention to people's livelihood, and most of his money was spent on construction.  Among Li Yuan's sons.  Li Jiancheng emphasized literature, Li Shimin emphasized martial arts, and Li Yuanji had a little bit of scheming.  Good at maintaining success.  This is quite comprehensive.  I don’t know how many times stronger than those aristocratic families, but what?  !  If the aristocratic family has money, they won't spend it outside.  There are people who cannot stabilize the country, but are respected by most people in the world.  This made Li Shimin unbalanced.

    "If you want to blame it, just blame the system of Wei and Jin." Huang Junming said softly.  The reason why this powerful family has been respected or respected by the people for a long time is ultimately a system issue in the Wei and Jin Dynasties. Whether it is the nine-level Zhongzheng system for selecting officials or the "surname" system among the people, it is  The reason why the family’s influence is growing.  Huang Junming knows this.  "But what do you plan to do, Your Majesty?"

    &nbsp"Hmm?" Li Shimin had just been thinking about the institutional issues of Wei and Jin. However, Huang Junming suddenly asked him this question, and he suddenly felt at a loss.  The problem of the aristocratic family has been weighing on Li Shimin's mind for more than a day or two.  Every day he thought that the noble family might be here or there to threaten him, which made Li Shimin feel upset for a while. He couldn't tell others about it yet, so he could only keep it in his heart. Over time, he could be said to have accumulated a lot of resentment.  But when Huang Junming asked this, what should he do?  What do you want to do?  Li Yuan prayed that while wooing aristocratic families, he would use the imperial examination system to slowly eat away at the share of descendants of aristocratic families among court officials. Although it was too slow in terms of time, it was still a good idea.  The kind of education system Huang Junming mentioned now is even more for this point.  In comparison, it was much faster than the imperial examination system.  But this only eliminates the influence of the aristocratic family in the court. What about the influence of the aristocratic family among the people?  Li Shimin began to think slowly.

    These aristocratic families are all called by their surnames, which developed because people in the Wei and Jin Dynasties "advocated surnames".  Therefore, when asked about a certain surname, people will suddenly understand and say something like the big surname and the small surname that they have admired for a long time.  Since everyone thinks about surnames, why don't I arrange the surnames in the world?  Although some people had sorted out the surnames of families before, it was not officially determined.  I want to establish an order of surnames, putting the Li family first, and leaving those aristocratic families behind!

    On the issue of clan annals.  There are two opinions on the compilation year of clan chronicles, one is the first year of Zhenguan, and the other is the sixth year of Zhenguan.  This book uses the saying from the first year of Zhenguan.  Another clan chronicle is the earliest predecessor of "Hundred Family Surnames", and its purpose is to keep the royal family in the first place.  (To be continued)
