Fang Jun said calmly: "I disagree with what Duke Ying said. The so-called 'regret' is just because the mutiny failed. You cannot bear the consequences of failure. But if you win, you will still do it."
Do you have any regrets at all? I’m afraid I’m just proud. People can’t be so shameless and only think about getting everything when they win, and blaming others when they lose. Now that something has been done, no matter whether you win or lose, you should face it calmly.”
When you lose, you have to admit it, and when you are beaten, you have to stand upright. This has always been the case throughout the ages. How can we only talk about victory and not lose?
Yu Wenshi and Mo Ran, the truth is indeed like this. It’s not that he can’t accept failure, but he can’t accept the serious consequences of failure. At first, he was only thinking about supporting King Jin after he ascended the throne, but he was always lucky and thought that he couldn’t.
fail.
Now that the defeat has been decided, even if His Majesty will not kill them all, the Guanlong clan has completely collapsed due to his actions, which still makes him miserable...
His voice was trembling, and he looked at Fang Jun with a hopeful look: "Erlang, tell me... is it possible for a disciple of Guan Long to enter the court?"
Fang Jun thought for a while, nodded and said: "Of course it is possible. The academy will recruit students after the spring. We are now compiling the admissions regulations. In principle, half of the students admitted this time must pass the recommendation of all parties, and the other half need to pass the academy's assessment, regardless of whether
Origin is sufficient as long as one has never committed any crime."
The implication is that I will not specifically target the children of Guanlong. If the children of Guanlong have real talents and practical knowledge, they can pass the exam and enter the academy. In the future, they will naturally have the opportunity to enter the government or even enter the court.
Yu Wenshiji said doubtfully: "His Majesty's national policy is to suppress the powerful families. After this mutiny, the world's powerful families have become unprecedentedly weak. This is a good opportunity to catch them all, so why should we give them a chance to make a comeback?"
At present, the Guanlong clan has almost completely collapsed, the Shandong aristocratic families have suffered heavy losses, the Jiangnan nobles have been severely weakened, and the top clans in the world are flagging and on the verge of collapse. Your Majesty should use the autumn wind to sweep away the fallen leaves, otherwise, wait until these clans stabilize
If you want to cut it off, it will be as difficult as climbing to the sky. The opportunity cannot be missed, and the time will never come again.
And why take the initiative to give the family a chance to breathe?
Fang Jun picked up the teapot on the table and shook it. He picked up an inverted teacup and poured the herbal tea into it. He drank it all in one gulp and sighed: "The nobles are the cancer of the country. Even the nobles themselves cannot refute this, but sadly
The most important thing is that as long as classes exist, clans must also exist...Throughout the ages, classes have existed from the moment people established social structures, and even when people perish, classes cannot be eliminated."
When social division of labor exists and the means of production still need to be distributed, classes are naturally born. In the same way, as long as social division of labor still exists and the means of production still need to be distributed, classes will always exist.
For Chinese civilization, "family, country and world" has always been the core spirit, but whether it is "family first and then country" or "first country and then family" is a question that points directly to the origin of civilization.
.
Home and country are interconnected and interconnected.
To completely eliminate the existence of clans, the prerequisite is to eliminate the existence of classes, which is naturally impossible.
The gate valve can only contain it, but cannot clear it.
Yuwen Shiji was also an outstanding figure in the world. After thinking for a moment, he understood Fang Jun's original intention: "The beginning of a family is a family and a surname. As long as this family and surname exist, it will inevitably develop into a family at a certain moment when conditions are ripe.
There are no clans in Guanlong today, but there will be other clans in Shandong aristocratic families and Jiangnan gentry tomorrow. The purpose of suppressing clans is not to eliminate clans, but to dig out the essence of clans that have been passed down for centuries but are above the imperial power...
"
Fang Jun nodded happily: "The clans can exist, but one or more clans cannot control the future of the nation, because the interests of the clans are contrary to the interests of the country. Only centralization of power can make the country strong and the nation prosperous."
Only centralization of power can ensure that national interests are above all else. This is the foundation for a country and a nation to maintain long-term stability, glory and reproduction. Those so-called "electoral systems" promoted under the guise of "people's cooking" are actually the most hypocritical and stupid
behavior, if everyone has the opportunity to become the one who dominates the empire, wouldn't it be chaos? After all, not everyone has the ability to govern the country. On the contrary, if it is the bureaucratic class who really governs the country, the election
The leaders who emerge are only nominal leaders, so where is the "people's cooking"?
There is no real freedom in the world, let alone real people, and no system is perfect.
The long course of history is vast, and in those countries where the political power is divided but euphemistically called "republic of the people", the nation will eventually be annihilated, and only "centralization" can be eternal.
Humans are like this, animals are like this, and everything in the universe is like this.
The limit of development of all things is "centralization", and "centralization" is the highest form of existence...
Although Yu Wenshiji was smart, well-informed and knowledgeable, he was unable to have a deeper understanding of the ultimate form of this social structure. His brain was somewhat insufficient, which greatly exceeded his cognitive realm.
However, he finally understood His Majesty's intentions and the upcoming treatment of the Guanlong Clan, and he finally let go of his worries.
As long as he is not allowed to become the criminal responsible for the destruction of the Guanlong clan, he will die in peace...
*****
After coming out of Yuwenshi and where he was imprisoned, Fang Jun returned to his residence with a heavy heart and lay on the bed unable to fall asleep.
In the court hall, if we can say that he has true "year-old friendship" with him, only Yu Wenshiji and Kong Yingda are the two. Although tonight's unabashed conversation has dispelled Yuwen Shiji's worries and worries, he also knows how to feel
By the time he reached Yuwenshi, he had already begun to have a will to live and die.
There is no way to persuade. Just like Changsun Wuji had to commit suicide. As the leader of Guanlong, he brought the entire Guanlong into the abyss. He must give an explanation to the entire Guanlong clan. For anyone with strong self-esteem,
It is impossible for people to be so shameless as to pretend that nothing happened.
This is a responsibility and a responsibility. Anyone who persuades or prevents them will push them to the level of being despised by the world, and will have to endure endless criticism, abuse, and complaints. Only by dying to clarify their ambitions can they preserve their reputation and integrity.
Although Yu Wenshi and himself are to blame, today, there are very few people of their era left, and even the Zhenguan Xunchen officials have withered and declined, and only a few are still active in the court and control the power of the empire.
The tide of the times is surging, pushing those influential figures to retreat, and also pulling more people to the top of the wave.
And in this process of upgrading, too many innocent people were involved and their bodies were shattered. Although this is a price that must be paid, the most painful result is not the responsibility of those high-ranking officials and noble families, but all of them.
All the misfortunes are imposed on ordinary people who have no power to resist.
But they are all bystanders...
Fang Jun was a little irritable, feeling unbearable and angry. He had always known that he would never be a qualified political figure because he could not feel at ease after weighing the pros and cons.
The door was knocked again.
Fang Jun yelled irritably: "What can't we talk about tomorrow morning? I'm very sleepy!"
Wei Ying's trembling voice sounded outside the door: "What...Princess Baling asked for an audience outside the camp gate. General Gao didn't dare to take charge, so he asked the younger one to come and inform Erlang. Let Erlang decide whether to meet or not."
"Mother!"
Fang Jun was in a bad mood. When he heard that Princess Baling was coming, he became more and more irritable. He cursed and said angrily: "This woman goes out to meet men in the middle of the night. She really doesn't care about her reputation, right? Well, since she treats herself as a commodity
, I will simply help her! Bring her here!"
"Here!"
The guard eagle outside the door responded, grinned, turned around and ran away with his tail between his legs. Although his son Erlang usually looked friendly and cheerful, once his stubborn temper broke out, no one could stand it. Princess Baling happened to be on the edge of the knife.
, wish yourself good luck tonight...
After a moment, a carriage with ordinary decoration slowly drove in from outside the camp gate, and came out to surround Fang Jun's soldiers and a few high-level generals in the camp. No one knew who was sitting in the carriage.
The carriage arrived at the house next to the handsome tent, and Princess Baling was helped out of the car by the maid. A dark black cloak covered her head and face, and the evening breeze blew, revealing her slender waist.
"The Marshal is waiting in the room, please come in."
Princess Baling hummed and stepped towards the door. However, the guard at the door stretched out his hand and stopped the accompanying maid: "No one is allowed to enter."
The maid whispered, a little flustered: "Ah...but..."
"Okay, you can stay outside and wait." Princess Baling bit her lip and said softly. Her delicate hands under the cloak were clasped together tightly, and she seemed to be breathless because of the tension.
The maid did not dare to say anything, her worried eyes followed Princess Baling into the door, and was blocked by the closed door...
In the room, Fang Jun sat behind the table with a golden sword. He frowned and looked at Princess Baling who was walking slowly in. He said displeasedly: "At midnight, His Highness repeated his old tricks and entered the military camp. I don't know why?
"
It seems that she thought that she had begged Fang Jun before, and her husband was indeed let go by his majesty, so Princess Baling suddenly became more confident, forced a smile, and said softly: "Why did the Duke of Yue ask questions knowingly?
I came because I wanted to beg the Duke of Yue to save my husband."
Fang Jun stared at Princess Baling with burning eyes until the pretty face illuminated by the candlelight gradually turned pink and her cheeks glowed. Then he stood up and walked slowly to the front of the odd job. He did not stop until he could hear her breathing.
He stepped down, looked at the tightly pursed red lips, and whispered: "Your Highness, please kneel down."
Princess Baling looked up in shock, her face full of disbelief.
But when a person is under the eaves and comes with a request, he can only pull up his skirt and bend his knees...
