Whether it is "the glory of a gentleman is cut off for five generations" or "wealth is only three generations", it is all about the decline or disaster caused by the wrong way of education for future generations.
Yu Yi didn't want to make too much noise when he went north this time. He just wanted to quietly take the grandchildren of the family to Han to watch the achievements of some ancestors. When he met many families on the Yangtze River, he felt very bad at that moment. He didn't want to go with them, but he couldn't erase some friendship.
The world has been turbulent since the Yongjia rebellion. In recent years, the fortunes of the Hu people have declined again and again, and the descendants of the Han family have the tendency to dominate the Central Plains. For many aristocratic families south of the Yangtze River, the mood is very complicated.
There are many reasons for the decline of the descendants of the Han family, not entirely because of the long-term civil strife, but also because the social system has gone astray. For example, the emergence of the nine grade Zhongzheng system solidifies the upper class. Born in a family with good quality, there is no need to work hard, but senior officials sit in wealth and forever, and it is difficult for the bottom to have the capital to advance even with any effort. In this way, we can get everything we want without effort, which will be taken seriously. If it is not serious, we will not strive to obtain knowledge. A country led by a group of pigs can only develop into a pigsty.
Those aristocratic families in the south of the Yangtze River have a complex mood, which is that the rise of the Han country has become unstoppable. They are depressed that gaining advantages in the Central Plains has nothing to do with them and can't compete for interests. What is more worrying for them is that the country can not coexist with the newly rising Han country, and one side will destroy or annex the other.
The Jin army can't defeat the Hu people. The Hu people lose again and again when facing the Han army. Anyone can do a simple conversion question, so it's worth paying attention to how to ensure that their interests are not infringed. Maybe it would be a good idea to enter the Han territory in advance.
"Those people are stupid." Yu wing has been in Langya for half a month. Today, he came to the place where he once had the stone carving. He was blowing the sea breeze with a fishy smell. He was watching the waves repeatedly hitting the rocks: "they have no registered residence in the Han Dynasty. What is the reason for taking the land deed to go to the government office to return to the land?"
There are many people standing around Yu Yi. They are all family owners or speakers. They received news not long ago that the state of Han does not recognize the legitimacy of those land deeds.
"Yes." Xu Lian, the owner of the Xu family in Wujun, said, "the title deed was not issued by the Han government."
There are many people who take the land lease to the government of the Han state to claim back the land. As far as they know, none of them has achieved their goal. Some people continue to mess around, while others want to pay for it. No matter what way, they have not obtained the ownership of even an inch of land.
The handling of the state of Han made a considerable number of people feel uneasy. They urgently needed to find out what the state of Han meant before they had this trip to the north.
"It's not that you can't get land." Zhang Quan, the head of the Zhang family from Jiangxia, said with a little meaning: "many of the families who went north first have obtained land."
It is said that many southern families who went north in the second year of Yuanshuo mostly went to some family children in their prime of life. Most of them worked in the army, some got nothing, and some became local officials or petty officials after assessment.
Zhang Quan said that some people acquire land, specifically referring to the group of people who join the army. They are selected to join the army is at least five mu, and there are corresponding rewards for meritorious deeds.
Five acres of land is very few for people who can be called aristocratic families. Which family can be called aristocratic families does not hold a lot of land in their hands. Zhang Quan specially said that because he thought he had found a way of development in the Han country.
"The most important military feat in the Han Dynasty." Yu Yi didn't know what he thought and said with emotion: "any powerful country attaches great importance to military merit."
The family knows a family matter. It's no use just having military merit here in the small imperial court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. It's no use having someone who does meritorious service in a family without rank. It can even be said that being full of experience is not farting in the face of casting a good baby. Yu Yi will feel it. He knows very well that his country doesn't even have the shadow of a powerful country.
The families that can have aristocratic family identity in the south of the Yangtze River, without exception, have an ancestor who had an official position or title when Chen Qun formulated the nine grade Zhongzheng system, thus becoming the beneficiaries of the nine grade Zhongzheng system.
Since they are both beneficiaries and vested interests, they hope that the system can be maintained.
I don't know who spoke first, so everyone's topic turned to the system of the state of Han. After talking about it, it became more and more chaotic, because it came from the system of the state of Han itself.
The state of Han seems to adopt the system of three gongs and nine Qings, but is this system in the pre-Qin period, or in the Western or Eastern Han Dynasty?
"Looking at the national policy of the Han Dynasty is undoubtedly the pre-Qin system." Without waiting for someone to refute, Xu Lian immediately said, "the strict implementation of the 20th Baron has created a group of military nobility, and their number is the largest in the Han state."
According to the system that you can rise when you capture the enemy, there are the largest number of nobles in the army. They are the military foundation of the Han state. Aren't they the most influential people? According to the common understanding, if a group has enough voice and influence, it can determine the direction of the country. When the military has the voice, it will form a * * * * country.
The system of three gongs and nine Qings in the Western Han Dynasty still has a little shadow of * * * *, but it is much lighter than that in the Qin Empire. In the Eastern Han Dynasty, Emperor Guangwu of the Eastern Han Dynasty finally ascended to the throne of God with the help of aristocratic families and powerful people. In fact, the three Gong and nine Qing system of the Eastern Han Dynasty has changed to the direction of aristocratic families in power, turned into powerful politics and removed the shadow of * * *.
It should be said that the Qin Empire and the Western Han Dynasty were the * * * * period of the Chinese Miao people, which was also an important period for the development and expansion of the Chinese Miao people. The Qin Empire first laid the outline of the territory, and then the continuous expansion of the Western Han Dynasty. The influence of the two eras on future generations was far greater than that of any period, not only the military expansion, but also the thought of great unification.
The thought of great unification has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people since the emperor swept Liuhe. It is precisely the thought of great unification that ensures the basic plate of the habitat of Chinese and Miao people, and produces countless heroes who want to take over the lost land when there is a shortage in jin'ou, which also ensures the integrity of the country.
An aristocratic family that reads more than ordinary people knows better than anyone. If the Han state did not appear, the court south of the Yangtze River could coexist with the Hu people. With the Han state, there will be a final contest in the future. It is a competition between you and me, all because no one can accommodate anyone.
Others are talking loudly. Yu Yi is stunned at Langya stone carvings.
The words on the stone carvings show the trend of dragon flying and Phoenix dancing, representing the pride of an empire. Because of the maintenance of the Han Dynasty, the paint color of the handwriting on it has also been repainted, so that people can clearly see what is on it.
"The sun and moon shine, and the boat carries." Yu Yi felt a kind of recollection in his heart. He fully felt the pride of a powerful empire and couldn't help reading out the content: "within six harmonies, the land of the emperor. It involves quicksand in the West and households in the north in the south. There is the East China Sea in the East and summer in the north. People everywhere, there are all officials."
A military song of the Han army was adapted from the Langyatai carved stone. During the battle of Yuzhou, the Jin army led by Chu Li once fought with the Han Army, the Han Army sang the war song and let the Jin army collapse without fighting. Although the news was blocked, well-informed people in the south of the Yangtze River knew it.
"There is another sentence in the war song of the Han Army, 'is it the king's land under the whole world and the king's ministers who lead the land', how domineering it should be." Chi Ying, Wang Xizhi's wife and younger brother, was also on a trip to the north. He said to Yu Yi, who was stunned: "Duke Yu, since the Central Plains was flat and unruly, countless capable people and lofty ideals have tried to do the above, but no one can do it. Do you think the king of Han can do it?"
"The enemy killings in the central plains are serious, with millions of dead and wounded." Yu Yi and Chi Ying are still very familiar with each other. They are also clear about Chi Ying's political position. In a speculative tone, they said: "it is reasonable to say that the Han state after the catastrophe should cultivate students and rest for a period of time."
Chi Ying immediately said, "there is news from the channel that the Han army organized the Northern Expedition corps with ran min as the commander. The Han Army has attacked Xiangguo, and Shi Hu fled without fighting again."
The northward movement of the Han army shows that the center of the Han country does not have the appearance of resting with the people at all, so we can't guess the thinking of the Han country according to common sense. Since the Han army can still go north, can the Han Army also go south?
"Shi Hu's northward movement does not mean that Shi Jie has no power to fight back against the Han army." Yu Yi is a man who has fought with Shijie Zhao Jun more than once. He also saw the frontal collision between the Han Army and Shijie Zhao Jun with his own eyes. He said relatively fairly: "Shijie's national strength is poor, and most of the terrain in the Central Plains can't give full play to the cavalry. Shi Hu's withdrawal to Binzhou is to accumulate strength. I'm afraid he also has the intention of luring the Han Army to go north."
When the news that Shi Hu fled from Xiang without fighting spread to the south of the Yangtze River, all aristocratic families lost their voice at that moment. They didn't believe the news and thought it was a rumor.
Countless aristocratic families sent people to the north of the Yangtze River. They not only confirmed the accuracy of the news that Shi Hu fled from Xiang without war, but also learned that the harm caused by ethnic hatred to the Han territory was not as serious as expected.
What is enough to make many aristocratic families in the south of the Yangtze River feel at ease is that they have never been cheap in the competition with the Hu people, but a newly established country that has been established for less than four years has always gained an advantage in the competition with the Hu people.
At present, the most important thing for most aristocratic families south of the Yangtze River is only one. Will the Han country continue to go north, or enter a period of stability, and how long will they have to make their own preparations.
"I hope the Han army can continue to go north." Chi Ying said with a very complicated expression, "but there is news that the Han Army going north is only ran min, and a large number of Han troops are transferred to the south."
The Han Army's current action is very big. A large number of soldiers return to the countryside or live locally. After a period of rest, the field corps continues to move south.
Huanwen had a wife born as a princess of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. He was transferred from the north line to Yuzhou, which was difficult to keep secret. The news that he was ordered to recruit Li's Chenghan spread like wildfire.
"Someone has seen Yuanzi appear in Xuchang." Yu Yi confirmed Chi Ying's guess and said, "he is as usual this time, but he may not be very happy."
In the past, when Huan Wen was still an official of the small imperial court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, he suggested the small imperial court to send troops to Li's Chenghan more than once, and advocated that the Northern Expedition should start with the destruction of Li's Chenghan. Unfortunately, only Yu Yi agreed, and no matter who else thought Huan Wen's proposal was nonsense.
"After Li Shi succeeded to the throne, the Korean situation was chaotic. He attacked Shijie first and then invaded China. Recently, he sent troops to the Han state." Chi Ying shook his head and said, "there should be such a person in charge of the country."
Speaking of it, most people in the small imperial court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty have been thinking of conquering Li's Chenghan. It is Li Shi's enough death. Some of Li's Chenghan's civil and military were cleaned and took refuge in the small imperial court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, which makes the small imperial court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty understand that there is no better time to destroy Li's Chenghan than at the present stage.
The small imperial court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty intended to send troops to become the Han Dynasty, on the premise that there were no changes in the state of Han. Before confirming whether it was possible for the Han state to go south, the small imperial court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty could only stare at it eagerly, and did not dare to transfer its troops from along the Yangtze River.
Later, the news that Huan Wen would command the Han Army to attack Li's Chenghan spread to the small imperial court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. They had a mixed psychology. They thought that the fat meat they got would be eaten by the Han state first. They also felt that since the Han state conquered Li's Chenghan, they would not invade the Jin State.
"No." Yu Yi clearly said, "Yuanzi is just a Lang general and can't command hundreds of thousands of Han troops. The Han troops will transfer to the South on a large scale, not just to conquer the country."
Chi Ying was not surprised and agreed: "he has made it clear to the abbot many times. The abbot has begun to prepare for war in the whole army."
Chu Li appeared in Yu Yi's mind. Since Chu Li's intention to cooperate with him again was rejected, the Yu family was not only marginalized, but even there were signs that the Jin army and private soldiers of several aristocratic families transferred to the traditional sphere of influence of the Yu family. His evaluation of Chu Li was still very high before. Recently, some of Chu Li's actions fully showed that "it is difficult to live up to fame". He shook his head and showed a mocking expression.
There is no secret about Chu Li's plan for the Yu family. Seeing Yu Yi's mockery on his face, Chi Yu persuasively said: "in the final analysis, we are our own people, but we can't mess up before the national war in the future."
The Chu family and the Xie family are now political allies. Chi's family is in the same camp as Wang Xizhi's family and other aristocratic families.
Chi Ying had many tasks to go north this time, one of which was to monitor Yu Yi. Among his bags, there are many national certificates and awards from Chu suanzi after being sealed, including the national certificates to be presented to Liu Yan, and the canonization of some aristocratic families in the Central Plains. They must be the national certificates to be presented to the Zhao state, Murong Yan state and Zhang Liang state in Shijie after the state affairs of the Han Dynasty, and even the Fu family who are currently active in West Gansu and North China.
Yu Yi took a deep look at Chi Ying and waited for Chi Ying to turn his eyes to another place. A sneer arose from the corners of his mouth.
