The Qianshan Zhu family is not much inferior to the Qianshan Fei family, but their ancestors did not produce any famous ministers.
The ancestral home of the Zhu family is located in Shitang Town. It is impossible to verify when it was moved there. However, the genealogy of the Zhu family in Shitang was prefaced by two celebrities, one was Zhu Xi and the other was Xin Qiji.
The Shitang Zhu family is divided into five major sects and countless smaller sects, with descendants spread across six towns and villages in Qianshan County.
They mastered the top technology of manufacturing continuous paper, and married into a branch of the Fei clan who moved to Shitang Town. They also married into many businessmen and formed a "Zhu clan gang", which has spread their commercial influence to Fujian.
But it is strange that this family, which has been in the papermaking industry for hundreds of years, did not actively establish an academy, but only built several private schools one after another.
Moreover, there is no dedicated family library.
They seem to prefer doing business. As long as their children and grandchildren can be admitted as scholars, it will be more worthy of celebration if they are admitted as civil servants. Once you have achieved fame, you can then buy an official position...
"Brother Duan Zhi, little brother...little brother...oh!" Chen Lide's face was full of grief.
Zhu Shou just smiled and said, "Are you angry at the Fei family?"
Chen Lide took out a copy of "Ehu Xunjian" and said, "Brother Duan Zhi, please take a look."
"Personality theory?"
Zhu Shouzheng read it carefully and immediately praised: "This theory is very good, it can be called a hero!"
The Zhu family produced many scholars, but there were not many scholars who were promoted to Jinshi. They preferred to do business, and businessmen needed "personality equality." Zhao Han proposed the "qualification theory", which can be said to be exactly what the Zhu family wanted.
Chen Lide asked anxiously: "Brother Duan Zhi, do you know who wrote this article?"
Zhu Shouzheng said: "It is certainly the work of a famous scholar."
"This was written by a fourteen-year-old domestic slave!" Chen Lide said sadly.
"How can a fourteen-year-old domestic slave have such insights?" Zhu Shouzheng was surprised and asked, "Fei's domestic slave?"
Chen Lide slapped the case and said: "Isn't that the Fei family slave!"
Zhu Shouzheng immediately sneered: "This Fei family is guarding the treasure land of Hekou Town. She also started by doing business, but she doesn't do business well. There are several famous ministers in our ancestors, and you still want to be famous? I am a descendant of this family.
If you fail to pass the exam, you will support fellow scholars, and now even domestic slaves are sent to study."
"They are crazy about wanting to be officials!" Chen Lide repeatedly echoed.
Although the Zhu family and the Fei family have been married many times, the conflicts between the two families have become increasingly serious.
One is to grab business, and the other is to fight for land. They don't fight directly, so they are restrained from each other.
Chen Lide added: "I heard that this domestic slave was a refugee from the north, and was brought back to Qianshan by Fei Yinghuan. The domestic slave became a domestic slave, but he actually registered as a domestic servant and took the imperial examination as an adopted son. Isn't it the most ridiculous thing in the world?"
Zhu Shouzheng sneered and said: "It has completely ruined the Fei family tradition."
Chen Lide continued: "This domestic slave, after receiving such kindness from Fei, did not study hard. He wrote articles to promote personality theory. What did he want to do? He just remembered the family slave's origin and wanted to truly be a master."
Zhu Shouzheng nodded and said, "That's true. The wolf's ambition is obvious."
Chen Lide continued to apply eye drops: "Fei Yuanlu, the director of Hanzhu Academy, instead of stopping him, held a debate for him. How could I stand it? So I came forward to argue with him. Who knew that guy had a sharp tongue?
He took quotes out of context and distorted the saints. Fei Yuanlu also favored him, and I, a dignified scholar, was actually refuted by a child."
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Zhu Shouzheng gloated over his misfortune, pointed at Chen Lide and said, "Brother, I'm afraid you've lost face. I'm just telling you, if you don't want to be a Confucian teacher at Hanzhu Academy, come to my Shitang town to be a private school teacher. It turns out that
I don’t have the shame to stay in Hekou Town any longer.”
Chen Lide said with a grimace: "Brother Duan Zhi, you and I have known each other for decades, why do we need to ridicule you like this?"
Zhu Shouzheng read "Theory of Gesture" again and said: "No matter what, this article is well written and the principles are very clear."
Chen Lide said anxiously: "Brother Duan Zhi, this is an article that will cause chaos for the country and the family!"
"Why do you say this?" Zhu Shouzheng asked puzzledly.
Chen Lide explained: "Half of the tens of thousands of papermaking craftsmen in Shitang Town are slaves of the Zhu family. At least 60% of the countless acres in Shitang Town are the property of the Zhu family. If the theory of personality spreads here, those slaves and tenant slaves will
What do you think? They will feel that they are not lowly. Since they are not lowly, will they rebel and cause trouble?"
Zhu Shouzheng was stunned.
Chen Lide continued: "I have heard that the papermakers in Shitang Town will make unreasonable troubles several times. If the theory of personality becomes popular in the world, it will be even more reasonable for them to make troubles!"
I wish you, the owner of the paper industry, are most afraid of workers making trouble, and there will be a strike every two or three years on average.
Especially for the core papermaking procedures, the craftsmen are very skilled and cannot be trained in a year and a half.
If other slaves dare to mess around, they can be beaten to death and buried.
The Zhu family really couldn't bear to beat these craftsmen on strike. Not to mention killing them, even if they were damaged, it would be equivalent to throwing their own money into the water.
Zhu Shouzheng read "The Theory of Gesture" again and felt it was unsightly. He whispered: "It is indeed a piece of writing that will cause chaos for the country and the family."
Chen Lide said: "We must trample that slave to the ground quickly before it spreads widely!"
"But how can I control the Fei family's slaves?" Zhu Shouzheng frowned.
Chen Lide smiled and said: "Fei Yuanyi's family name is in the hands of the Fei family in Ehu. Fei Yuanzhen, the head of the Fei family in Qianshan, has many conflicts with Fei Yuanlu, the head of the Hanzhu Academy. As long as Fei Yuanzhen is persuaded,
Fei Yuanyi, you can remove that slave from the Yellow Book! By then, Tong Sheng will not be able to succeed, so what is the use of an article written by a slave?"
The household registration yellow book is divided into two parts.
The "hukou" is kept by the people themselves and can be understood as the household registration book.
"Household registration" is retained by the government and is the basis for population statistics and tax collection.
Initially, any change in household registration or land must be reported to the Ministry of Household Affairs at all levels, and the seal of the Ministry of Household Affairs must be passed down before it can take effect.
Once the population increases, this becomes inoperable.
By the middle of the Ming Dynasty, power was forced to be delegated to prefectures and counties, and county magistrates, who could just seal the matter.
Fei Yuanyi had a conflict with his daughter-in-law Lou, and he kept hiding a big killer weapon, which was the household registration in his hand. He wanted to erase the name "Fei Han" easily, so he just had a meal with the county magistrate.
It’s about food.
Once the household registration is removed, Zhao Han's children will be gone. This is the master's control over the slaves.
Zhu Shouzheng pondered for a long time, without making any statement, and only said: "If the private school in Zhu's family can recruit good disciples to teach, the imperial examination will definitely prosper in the future."
"I will do my best to teach you everything I have learned in my life." Chen Lide stood up and bowed.
After Chen Lide left the room, Zhu Shouzheng called a servant: "Go and send me a greeting card. Please invite the village elders to come to Shitang on the fifth day of next month. Tell me that I will prepare wine and food and go boating to enjoy the snow. Remember, Fei Yuanzhen,
Mr. Fei Yuanyi, we must invite them here."
In fact, there is no need for Chen Lide to apply eye drops, Fei Yuanzhen has already taken action at this moment.
Fei Yuanlu expanded his academic field, rectified Hanzhu Academy, and handled the funeral affairs of Fei Songnian's family. His prestige within the family increased rapidly. In addition, Fei Yuanlu was responsible for compiling the genealogy of Fei's family in Qianshan, and the limelight had long been taken away.
The clan leader suppressed him.
In the past two or three years, if there were any disputes within the clan, they would go to Fei Yuanlu to resolve them, while the clan leader Fei Yuanzhen was ignored.
Zhao Han openly proposed the theory of personality and gained support from Fei Yuanlu, and immediately became involved in the dispute between the clan leader and the mountain chief.
E Lake, Feizhai.
Fei Yuanzhen took out a magazine and said: "My dear brother, that slave your master has taken in is really very capable!"
Fei Yuanyi read the article and remained silent without expressing his opinion.
"Why don't you speak? This is to rebel, to become the master! He doesn't care about rebelling himself, but he also incites all the slaves to rebel!" Fei Yuanzhen said angrily.
Fei Yuanyi suddenly smiled: "Since you are studying in the academy, you are a student of Yuanlu. It is not convenient for me to interfere."
They are all old foxes. How could Fei Yuanyi be stupid enough to get involved in the fight between the clan leader and the mountain chief?
Moreover, it was Fei Yinghuan who brought Zhao Han back, and it was Fei Yinghuan who suggested registering for residence. Although he had conflicts with his daughter-in-law, he did not want to fall out with his son again.
Fei Yuanzhen also had a secret weapon in his hand, and he offered a price: "If my virtuous brother can help me, I will let my brother and sister enter the ancestral hall."
Fei Yuanyi was stunned, with a strange expression on his face. He hesitated for a long time, and finally sighed and said, "Let me think about it."
The "sister-in-law" in Fei Yuanzhen's mouth is naturally not the old lady of the Fei family in Ehu, but the concubine who was beaten to death by the old lady. She is the white moonlight in Fei Yuanyi's heart, the most beautiful love in his life, and the best love in his life.
The second child Fei Yingqi’s biological mother!
Forty years ago, Fei Yinghuan's biological mother killed Fei Yingqin's biological mother with a stick.
The second young master, Fei Yingqi, has been calling his mother-killer mother for the past forty years!
Fei Yuanzhen left, but Fei Yuanyi couldn't calm down. He murmured to himself: "Qing'er, Qing'er, I have even forgotten what you look like."
Fei Yuanyi is an old stubborn man who forced his granddaughter to die for the sake of reputation.
But once upon a time, he also deviated from the traditional ways and ran away from marriage for true love. His father sent someone to kidnap him to worship in the church.
Who hasn’t been young yet?
It's just the cannibal ethics that eat away at the fresh and lovely human nature bit by bit.
At this moment, Fei Yuanyi seemed to be awakened, giving birth to an impulse that he had not experienced for many years. For the sake of his former lover, he would rather have a fight with his eldest son and fulfill the promise he had made.
When he made the promise, his lover was already dying and was lying in his arms, laughing miserably.
Send your lover to the ancestral hall and remove Zhao Han from his household registration!
When Fei Yuanyi turned over the household post, he stroked his pen and "Fei Han" turned into a ball of ink.
"Prepare the sedan, prepare the boat, I'm going to the county government office!"
