Chapter 1398 : Chapter 700 The beginning of the filial piety system (2)
That person might be able to issue such an order. Just watch the entertainment embarrassment picture.
"The order came from the palace," the steward said.
"It must be Liu Feng, it must be that Liu Feng." Zhang Zhen yelled out of control. He was breathing heavily and looked ferocious.
The other officials were also stunned by this unexpected turn of events. The matter had actually developed to this point, killing people directly. This was killing people directly.
How many merchants want to die, how many merchants want to resent the Han Dynasty.[
Many businessmen have stopped coming to Xudu, but Liu Feng was able to kill them.
"This time we encouraged the businessmen to act together, but now most of the businessmen have been killed. This is a very big blow to our prestige. What should we do?" asked an official.
"Come into the palace and make a fuss. The bigger the fuss, the better. If you risk your life to fight with the emperor, I don't believe that the emperor can risk offending the great families in the world and kill us."
Yang Biao was also angered by the fight. He could no longer maintain the expression of the old god's presence. He suddenly stood up and said.
"Yes, make a fuss, just make a big fuss. If the emperor wants to take control of the world, he will not offend the famous families in the world. Even Cao Cao would not dare to do that."
"Yes, yes. We are invincible."
"Fight to the death."
The ministers were also excited and stood up one after another, shouting.
"Walk."
Immediately, at Yang Biao's order, the group of people walked out of Taichang Mansion aggressively, got on their own carriages, took their own slaves and guards, and headed towards the palace in a mighty manner.
The palace, inside the side hall.
The emperor Liu Xie is sitting on the throne, the crown prince and the king's general Liu Feng are kneeling in the first row and the first position. Below them are Sikong Fuwan and Shangshu Ling Xunyu.
As well as ministers Wang Fu, Wu Lan, Wu Shuo, Jia Xu, Liu Ye, Jiang Wan, Tian Feng, Yi Ji, Sima Hui, Pang Degong, etc.
At this moment, the atmosphere in the side hall was solemn.
Just now, Liu Feng opened his mouth and threw out the new filial piety and integrity system that he had been planning for several years. This was immediately a bombshell.
Everyone here is loyal, but many of them are from aristocratic families. For example, Xun Yu was born in the Xun family of Yingchuan. Of course, Xun Yu would not oppose the decision of Liu Xie and Liu Feng.
Because Xun Yu knew that this was a major decision. He wanted to take the official selection system, which was basically monopolized by aristocratic families, into his own hands.
Han Feizi said that the emperor's power should not be shared with his ministers, especially rewards and punishments, otherwise it would be easy for powerful ministers to become regicides.
Taking back the power of talent selection is conducive to the consolidation of centralized power, that is, the consolidation of the power of the emperor. This can prevent the dominance of aristocratic families and use strong power to contain the emperor.[
From the perspective of the emperor, king and general, this was conducive to the development of the Han Dynasty.
Of course Xun Yu had no objection, but it was a fact that he was born in the Xun family. Because of this, he knew how powerful the family was. Today's Yang Biao, Zhang Zhen and others are just microcosms of the entire world.
Even Cao Cao, who was known as a meritocracy, had many talents from aristocratic families. The most famous ones were Chen Qun and Zhong Yao, who also came from the Yingchuan family.
Cao Cao was like this, let alone Yuan Shao in the north. Most of the talents under Yuan Shao's account came from aristocratic families, and Yuan Shao dominated Hebei because of this.
In Jiangdong, the gentry were rampant. Although Sun Ce was tyrannical, he could only suppress them for a while.
As soon as this decree came out, it was a provocation to all the aristocratic families in the world. It might trigger a series of problems.
"Your Majesty, isn't it a little too early?" Xun Yu said tactfully.
