This passionate discussion is truly flowing and wonderful.

But in the ears of the ministers, it was like a death knell of death, and they were all sweating profusely, especially the Shandong gentry, who were sweating profusely.

In fact, it is better to be wise and talented. No matter whether it is a foolish monarch, a wise monarch will shout like this. It's no big deal, but the problem is that Han Yi is clearly pointing out.

Another very important reason is clanism.

This "Clanography" can be said to be a major failure in Li Shimin's life. He was too optimistic and too taken for granted.

At the beginning, Li Shimin emphasized that the acquisition of political status cannot be based on traditional surnames and how noble the family status is, but he turned his face and re-arranged the ranking of the ethnic groups, so that those who were high-ranking and high-ranking in the dynasty would be inherited from generation to generation.

Therefore, the "Clan Chronicle" is still a "noble genealogy" that elevates the status of the gentry and derogates the status of the common people, so the people still have this concept of gentry and common people. The gentry is synonymous with culture, ritual system, and economy, and is not a highland of official rank. In contrast, the people are certainly willing to praise Shandong gentry with profound heritage. After all, their fathers and grandfathers told them how powerful the Shandong gentry is, rather than the group of founding martial artists. Therefore, after such a fuss, the reputation of Shandong gentry increases instead of decreasing.

In addition, at that time, the Guanlong clans also learned from Shandong gentry and married each other. The group became increasingly connected and expanded, and finally formed the Guanlong group that was enough to compete with the emperor. It was actually presented at the end of Zhenguan. Li Shimin understood the game, but he had no choice, so he had the secret line of Li Ji.

From Li Zhi's perspective, the Clanography did not help him, but instead caused him a lot of difficulties. It was really tasteless to eat and abandon it.

Li Shimin must have regretted it, so he didn't mention it much later.

Therefore, the gentry class was very depressed, especially the Shandong gentry. They could not agree with the "Clan Chronicle" because they had always opposed it before, but compared to not, he would rather exist in the "Clan Chronicle". There is also the "Clan Chronicle" that Han Yi repeatedly emphasized to be based on meritorious people. Who dares to say this wrong? Those who refute it is not that they don't ask for advice. They are relationship households, and they can only climb up through relationships.

I have to say that this move is really silly.

The court is terrible.

Li Zhi glanced at him from left to side, but did not reveal too much. He said, "I said it very well. When my father was alive, he often warned me that the key to governing was to gain people. In fact, I have always been eager to seek talents. Han Yi stood here, and I believe it is the best proof. I also hope that all my dear friends can actively recommend talents to the court." At this point, he paused and said, "As for the Clan Records, this was revised by the late emperor himself. How can it be easily abolished? Do not discuss this matter again."

The ministers were relieved at the same time, and the emperor did not shout this slogan. Moreover, Li Zhi asked them to recommend more talents. Of course, they recommended their own people first and were very proud. You emperor still cannot live without us. If Li Zhi abolished the "Clanography", it would not be as simple as placing people on their own.

Li Zhi said loudly again: "In addition, I have something I want to say, which is about the Tang Dynasty Daily. I think there are many advantages to the contents, especially those symbols, which I think are very exquisite. I also hope that each of my dear friends will take a look at it a few times and then report to me what you think is desirable."

As soon as the topic changed, the depressing atmosphere immediately became relaxed.

The ministers also breathed a sigh of relief and said in unison: "I obey the order."

"Retreat!"

"I respectfully send you to Your Majesty."

As soon as Li Zhi left, Han Yi, who was fighting alone, felt like a ray of light on his back. Many ministers walked towards the door, staring at Han Yi, with hostility in their eyes.

From this we can see that this matter is not over, and even if the emperor nods, it will be useless.

"hehe!"

When the ministers all left, Han Yi was about to turn around, but suddenly he heard a very gloomy laughter coming from the side. When he turned around, he saw an old face looking at him with a smile. He was so scared that he trembled, and then he hurriedly bowed and said, "Da Sikong."

Li Ji kept laughing and looked a little stupid.

If you have something to say, don’t always laugh! Han Yi can only smile at him with a smile.

After a while, Li Jicai said, "You boy is so courageous!"

Otherwise? If I don’t have the courage, I will not even dare to open my mouth. Han Yi’s eyes turned and frowned and said, “Da Sikong, do you think that’s the case? I said they were good, they looked down on me and excluded me. I said they were bad, they looked down on me, and they also ignored me. If they were replaced by Da Sikong, what would Da Sikong do?”

Li Ji burst into laughter when he heard this. Without saying a word, he walked out with great strides, just like a fool.

You can't expect this old fox to be involved in this struggle. You should know that his wife is also from a Shandong gentry.

As soon as Li Ji left, Zhang Desheng came, "Oh! Special envoy, it's great that you are here. Your Majesty summoned you."

This is expected.

Han Yi followed Zhang Desheng to the imperial study room.

"I'm going to see your Majesty."

"No gift!"

Li Zhi looked at Han Yi with a smile in his eyes. After a while, he suddenly smiled and said, "I, all the civil and military officials in the court, have you said this skill in your mouth. According to my opinion, if you are the second, no one dares to be the first."

Please! You underestimate me too much, but now I am not only playing with this lip service, do you think I have the ability to play other methods now? But it doesn’t matter, you will see it sooner or later. Han Yi smiled honestly and said, “Your Majesty is wrong, I am ashamed of you.”

"Don't be humble, I saw it with my own eyes and heard with my own ears!"

Li Zhi waved his hand, his face gradually became serious, and he said, "Actually, what you said is right, not good, but have you made some progress? This is not that simple. As the saying goes, three feet of ice is not a day of cold. If you suddenly knock the ice down, then I may fall into the water."

Of course he did not want the existence of these gentry clans. This was not a good thing for imperial power, but he had just suppressed the Guanlong Group and turned around to deal with the Shandong Group. All the civil and military officials in the court would be unhappy with him. He was not so stupid that he did not reveal it in the court just now.

Han Yi nodded and said, "Your Majesty, I am just shouting, it has nothing to do with Your Majesty."

Li Zhi was so angry that he came and said, "You shouted in the court and shouted that you would abolish the Clan, how could it have nothing to do with me?"

Han Yi said: "Your Majesty misunderstood what I mean. What I mean is that you call me and do your Majesty's business. This is irrelevant."

Li Zhi said in confusion: "What do you mean?"

Han Yi said: "Your Majesty, the arrogance of the gentry is no longer a day or two. If they do not suppress their arrogant arrogance, it will be detrimental to the country, Your Majesty, and the people. There are good and bad among the gentry, and there are good and bad among the poor families. The court cannot generalize by its partiality, and only use a certain group, and should be based on the meritorious person, so that the court will become full of talents.

However, the gentry always rejects people from poor families. This is deeply touched by the weak ministers, which will also make the poor scholars in the world dissatisfied. If they continue for a long time, they will be afraid of chaos. But the weak ministers also know that this matter cannot be urgent. Your Majesty also has difficulties for Your Majesty and must be done step by step. However, there should be voices in the court that speak for the poor families, expressing that the court will value the poor families. In this way, the poor scholars will have hope for the court and that your Majesty will have someone to use."

Li Zhi nodded slightly when he heard this and said, "What do you mean is to represent a poor man?"

Han Yi hurriedly said, "This is a humble minister who cannot afford it. He is actually calling for His Majesty to give His Majesty a reason to promote more poor scholars. In addition, focusing on virtue and talent can also prevent the bad habits of the gentry. He believes that if you want to stop a marriage, you must tie the bell. If the people all advocate those who are both virtuous and talented and have integrity, then the prestige of the gentry will naturally decline, and the ministers in the court will naturally not compete to marry the gentry first."

Li Zhichou said: "Everyone knows this principle, but aristocrats like Cui Lu and Zheng have hundreds of years of background. Isn't it possible for you to change it in one word?"

"Is it up to man?" Han Yi smiled and said, "Your Majesty has to take into account the overall situation. There are many inconveniences, but this can be left to Weichen. Weichen is a farmer and says a few words to himself. This is reasonable. As long as Your Majesty secretly supports Weichen, and your Majesty is relieved. Weichen knows the importance and will never make it difficult for Your Majesty to do."

Li Zhi pondered for a moment, and he could accept it. At present, he didn't want to break up with Shandong Group again. If Han Yi was asked to make trouble with them, he could act behind the scenes and nodded, "Okay. I promise you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Han Yi lowered his head, and a strange light flashed in his eyes.

After leaving the imperial study room, Han Yi smiled and said to himself: "No one in this world can't live without anyone."

After breaking with the Shandong gentry, Han Yi suddenly realized that it was not enough to own the Guanlong Group, because the Guanlong Group was a group of powerful ministers and the center of power, but lacking the foundation, losing power was equivalent to losing everything. Without the resilience of the Shandong gentry, he could always achieve revival with his own background and culture. The reason why the Guanlong nobles were unable to crush the Shandong gentry was mainly because the Shandong gentry had extremely high fame and talents.

Han Yi also wanted to gain the reputation of Shandong gentry, which was a powerful addition to his plan.

He originally planned to borrow light from the Shandong gentry, but the facts told him that this was impossible.

Since this is the case, Han Yi would not ask them for them, but simply became a self-developed group. Li Zhi said a lot just now. Han Yi wanted to become the leader of poor people because of the current situation. Only poor people have no leader, but poor people are a very large group. Han Yi has set his sights on this piece of fat.

While thinking, he walked out of the palace and came to the palace gate. Suddenly, someone jumped out of the side, which scared him. He looked at him and hurriedly bowed: "I have seen Uncle Six."

It was Xiao Jun, the counselor.

Xiao Jun first gave him a wink, and Han Yi understood it and walked aside with him.

Xiao Jun asked in a low voice: "Did you and Your Majesty plan this time today?"

Han Yi said embarrassedly: "Uncle Six, don't say anything you want. I don't care if you plan it. It's not good to let Your Majesty know."

Xiao Jun said: "Just know what I mean."

Han Yi shook his head and said, "This has nothing to do with Your Majesty."

Xiao Jun was stunned immediately and said, "What do you mean is, this - you made it?"

Han Yi nodded.

Xiao Jun was stunned for a long time, then suddenly stomped his feet and said angrily: "You kid are confused. Do you know that your words today will offend all the civil and military officials in the court, even our Xiao family. Why are you doing this?"

Because this matter is very complicated, he did not dare to make any predictions. His eyes turned and said, "Uncle Six, although this was not instructed by Your Majesty, Your Majesty obviously did not object."

Xiao Jun was stunned and looked at Han Yi.

Han Yi smiled and said, "Everything is still unclear now, let's take a look."

Xiao Jun's expression became very confused again.

He also vaguely felt that this matter could not be explained clearly in just a few words. The interest relationship is complicated and if it really breaks out, it will cover the entire Tang Dynasty.

.

Harem!

"Seriously? This - Han Yi is so impulsive. It seems that he is also a little proud. Your Majesty, you must hit him well."

Wu Meiniang was shocked when she heard about the morning court today.

Li Zhi burst into laughter.

Wu Meiniang was stunned and said, "What did Your Majesty laugh at? Did you lie to me on purpose?"

Li Zhi stopped his smile and said, "I didn't lie to you, it was Han Yi who lied to you."

Wu Meiniang said in surprise: "What do you say about Your Majesty?"

Li Zhi smiled and said, "This matter is useless to be impulsive. Although many aristocratic families have fallen, compared to poor families, it can still be said that they are full of talents. I mainly rely on them. Look at the ministers in the court, there are a few of them from famous families. Most of them are talented, have unique insights, and have both virtue and talent. They are the wise ministers I rely on. How could Han Yi not know?

Han Yi shouted a few times, not to encourage me to suppress the Shandong gentry, but to express his dissatisfaction with the nobles suppressing the poor and to restrain those nobles. In fact, few people have always spoken up for the poor. When these ministers from poor families see those nobles, they are half inferior and most of them have to curry favor with the nobles. In this case, even if I have the will, I will not be able to support them! Over the years, only one person in the poor family has produced a Ma Zhou. Only under the protection of his father, Ma Zhou can be at a high position. What the poor families really need is a powerful voice so that they can gain a foothold in the court."

Wu Meiniang nodded slightly when she heard this and said, "So that's it. I was really scared to death by the boy."

"But it's too early to talk about this."

Li Zhi shook his head and smiled, "I think it's very interesting that Han Yi proposed the power of rejection. The Shandong gentry was very highly regarded by people and didn't take anyone seriously. But the ministers flocked to them and voluntarily went to the door to propose marriage with thousands of wealth. Even the princess and the Grand Sikong failed to avoid it, which led to their reputation being higher than that of the royal family, and their power in the court was increasing day by day. This is also the reason why the father revised the "Clan Chronicle" and issued a marriage ban order. However, this not only did not stop this unhealthy trend, but instead encouraged their arrogance. It can be seen that the father was powerless at this point."

Wu Meiniang said: "But the Shandong gentry have always paid attention to family style and family rules. The orders of parents and the words of the matchmaker have existed for hundreds of years. Even if your majesty's destiny is, it may not change anything. Moreover, it is difficult for honest officials to make up for family affairs and the court will not intervene."

Li Zhi said: "You are right, but don't forget why Han Yi's article caused such a big response. It can be seen that this is not impossible. Moreover, the view proposed by Han Yi is really exquisite and difficult to argue. Since ancient times, he has always praised the king for being wise and the minister for being wise. Then it can also be said that the father is wise and the son is wise and the lower one is wise, so that the constraints of the parents' orders can be broken, and the transaction of marriage can be ended. He also uses the style of pursuing people based on their merits and advocating the virtuous to break the trend of politeness. Haha, this kid is really smart."

Wu Meiniang frowned and seemed very cautious: "Your Majesty, even though that is the case, if Your Majesty comes forward to suppress the Shandong gentry, it will probably cause new disputes."

Li Zhi hurriedly said: "When did I say I would suppress the Shandong gentry? Han Yi also knows this. Therefore, Han Yi just asked me to secretly support him from behind and let him fight against the Shandong gentry. He was originally from a poor family. If he wanted to stand out, he had to pass the gentry level. This is reasonable."
