Chapter 28 Reincarnation
"One intention?" Jun Zexi snorted coldly, looking at Wei Huaian as if he were looking at a fool, as if he didn't understand how she could have such an idea. Jun Zeci sneered, seeming to be laughing at Wei Huaian's thoughts.
Innocent. "Think about the Queen Mother's attitude towards me. Does it look like she has a single heart?"
Wei Huai'an also knew that what he just said was very ridiculous, but out of the evil nature deep down in his bones, Wei Huai'an just liked to say the opposite to Jun Zeci, just to see how angry he was with him.
She blinked her eyes and said, "Maybe King Chen likes to be independent, or maybe he has conflicts with the Queen Mother and likes to go against her?"
Jun Zexi scoffed at this statement, and was about to speak to continue sarcastically, but when he spoke, he suddenly saw the sly smile in Wei Huai'an's eyes that was not hidden at all.
He was startled, and he immediately understood what Wei Huaian didn't understand, but that he just wanted to confront him.
Thinking of this, Jun Zeci was choked on his original sentence, and could only change the subject stiffly, saying: "Why do you think King Chen was so kind to hand these to me today?"
"After all," Jun Zeci paused for a moment, thinking of the wanton behavior of these aristocratic families over the years relying on their deep-rooted influence in the capital, he sneered from the bottom of his heart, "It's not because of those old aristocratic families.
Has our behavior touched his personal interests?"
King Chen is a very special existence in the capital.
The late emperor had two queens. The first was Jun Zeci's mother, and the second was the current empress dowager. However, the late emperor saw that the empress dowager had no children, so he naturally placed Jun Zeci under the empress dowager's knees to raise her. However,
, no one thought that not long after Jun Zeci was established as the crown prince, the Queen Mother would become pregnant.
Logically speaking, this kind of prince is generally a direct descendant, but a prince who has the same father as the emperor will generally be wary of the emperor.
But the late emperor also thought about this problem.
Out of love for his son, before leaving, he gave King Chen rights that would not threaten Jun Zeci but should not be underestimated, and he also issued an edict not to kill King Chen.
And probably because the mother and son also knew that the benefits given to King Chen by the late emperor before he left were enough, and no more would be too much, they rarely participated in the hidden disputes between Jun Zeci and the courtiers.
But people are all self-interested.
When the other party's behavior does not affect their own interests, most people will choose to turn a blind eye and tolerate it as long as they can; but once the other party's interests conflict with their own, they will no longer maintain the current stable status quo.
It was not difficult for Wei Huai'an to understand these things. After listening to it, he recalled some of the knowledge he had learned in school before and added with a slow smile: "Isn't it more than that, Your Majesty?"
After hearing this, Jun Zeci's eyes fell on Wei Huai'an.
I saw the dark pupils of the person in front of me slowly turning and resting on the memorial in front of Jun Zeci. He glanced at it casually, smiled, and said: "Isn't King Chen incapable of handling these things by himself? He's so sure
I can present the memorial to you in person during the morning court. But in that case, the matter will fall on him."
"Rather than letting myself do thankless things, it's better to talk to you in private. In this case, he can sit back and enjoy the results, so why not?"
Before Jun Zeci could speak, Wei Huaian looked at the memorial about the mistakes the family had committed over the years, and nodded clearly. Although the words she spoke were questions, her tone was very determined. Wei Huaian asked:
"Your Majesty, are you going to touch the aristocratic family? Are you going to start with the Yangliu family?"
As she spoke, she continued her own analysis: "It's not a bad idea to start with these two families. After all, these two families have been touched by Emperor Wu before, and their foundations are no longer as stable as those of other aristocratic families."
That was true, but when Jun Zeci looked at Wei Huai'an's expression, he saw a hint of hesitation. He frowned and asked: "I do intend to attack the Yangliu family, but... you
It seems that you don’t agree with my behavior? Why?”
Unexpectedly, Wei Huai'an denied it and said: "No, on the contrary, I agree with this."
"Then why did you..." Jun Zexi's tone became even more confused.
Wei Huai'an paused for a moment, interrupted Jun Zexi and said: "That's not the problem. It's that when these aristocratic families are removed, many positions will inevitably be vacant. How are you going to arrange these vacant positions?"
Jun Zeci said subconsciously: "Of course, my people arranged for it to be taken over."
Hearing this answer, Wei Huai'an was not very surprised. He nodded slightly to show that he understood. Then he looked into Jun Zeci's eyes and pointed out a question that Jun Zeci had never thought of before in a serious tone: "What you said makes sense.
Yes, you should indeed arrange your own manpower to take over. But what I want to ask is, where do these manpower come from? Do you plan to find people from aristocratic families to take over? Or do you plan to train talents from poor families to take over?"
"..."
Wei Huai'an saw that Jun Zexi did not speak, but fell silent and looked at her, seemingly thinking carefully about what she said.
Wei Huai'an was not surprised at all by Jun Zeci's performance.
In this game, Jun Zeci's character has always been that of a cold and unsmiling Mingjun. But no matter how far-term thinking Mingjun is, he will still be limited by the background ideas of the times.
Although the game official did not clearly introduce the dynasty of this game, Wei Huai'an's own observation found that the game should be imitating the background of the middle and late Eastern Han Dynasty.
In the game, in the early days of this dynasty, the founding monarch found knowledgeable people in the aristocratic families, and with the help of the children of these aristocratic families, he finally opened up the prosperous age at the beginning of the founding of the country. And these children of the aristocratic families, who were the founding heroes at the time, are also today.
The ancestor of the aristocratic family.
In fact, it is not difficult to see a drawback from these things.
"Your Majesty, have you noticed?" Wei Huaian's voice became soft and soft, falling into her ears as if it were nothing. She still looked casual, but casually said something that few people paid attention to before: "Every day
Every dynasty is repeating the same process."
"Look, weren't the founding heroes of the country single-handedly supported by the founding emperor? However, as time passed, the families that once stood on the monarch's side began to expand in power, and unknowingly, they would stand against the monarch."
Jun Zexi understood what she meant at this time. He didn't say anything, just picked up the brush and looked at the memorial on the table. Because of the angle, Wei Huai'an couldn't see his expression at this time.
When she was about to speak about the imperial examination system that future generations of emperors liked to use to select talents, she heard Jun Zeci suddenly speak.
I only heard him say in a flat voice: "It's a talent selection."
Wei Huaian was stunned.
There was a hint of smile in her eyes unconsciously.
She knew that Jun Zexi had already guessed it.
