Chapter 677 The layout of Chang'an University
There was nothing to say all night. The next morning, Wang Gansi woke up early. At this time, there were already sounds in the dormitory building, some sounds of getting up and some sounds of reading. Wang Gansi dared not delay, especially these sounds of reading. He always thought he was hardworking, but he did not expect that there were more people who worked harder than him.
He used a toothbrush to dip fine salt and brushed his teeth carefully. Then Wang Gansi woke up all the roommates in the dormitory one by one, and followed the four of them to use the bathroom in turn.
After washing up, the four of them went to the school cafeteria together.
Li You is really good to these students. In the morning, each of them has two fixed eggs, a bottle of milk, followed by millet porridge, steamed buns, pickles... It is really good. If you have money, you can buy some meat buns, such as mutton and onion meat buns, and you will have a mouthful of oil and water when you take a bite.
There are also noodles, wontons, dumplings... Anyway, there are really a lot of them.
"You guys are waiting, today I'll treat you to meat buns...!" Zhou Ye took out his usual money from his arms and smiled: "Today is the first day of military training. No matter what, the four people in our dormitory must not be eliminated, and they must hold on even if they die."
Zhou Ye's words made the other three laugh and nodded.
Zhou Ye quickly bought twelve meat buns, three of them per person. To be honest, these meat buns are really big. After eating three, eating two eggs and drinking a glass of milk, he really couldn't eat anything else.
Following the four of them, they held their hands together and walked towards Class 3 on the third floor. Today, Class 3 on the third floor did not attend classes, but directly trained military personnel. The one who came to train Class 3 on the third floor was a soldier from the Tiger Guard, named Jixiang.
This Jixiang was just over 18 years old. Looking at the 18-year-old military training instructor, some students showed disdainful expressions. However, when the students from Class 3 of the third floor knew that this Jixiang instructor was less than fifty short of joining the Rugui Company, all the students showed shocked expressions.
Where is Ruguilian? The Hu Ben Guard is the elite, and Ruguilian is the elite among the elite. This auspicious person is so young that he can enter Ruguilian, which is really shocking.
Just when everyone on Class 3 of the third floor thought that a storm was about to come, the content of military training was very simple, just some very simple fur, such as housekeeping, stacking quilts, following them, standing in the military posture, walking in line, and playing in a straight stance. The most uncomfortable thing is running. A group of people run around the playground twice every day, about 3,000 meters, which is really tiring.
However, nothing else is left. It seems that His Highness King Qi did not work hard, just to give students at Chang'an University a fitness reminder.
After the fifteen-day military training, all the students began to urgently devote themselves to their studies. The students here will be Li You's humeral ministers in the future, and they are also a sharp sword for Li You to fight against the aristocratic families.
Moreover, this Chang'an University is not a simple existence. This is the most important chess piece that Li You buried in order to fight against the aristocratic families in the future. Many people believe that the Tang Dynasty is always thriving. If you think this way, you are very wrong. There is a sharp sword hanging on the head of the Tang Dynasty.
That is the aristocratic family.
The imperial court's official selection system during the Wei and Jin Dynasties was the nine-rank Zhongzheng system. In layman's terms, it was to select talented people based on the reputation of the local people. Then, among these talented people, select good families, and finally select officials based on the talents of the talented people. The selected officials were elected by local people, and these officials were all from large families. The needs of the court, the people and the aristocratic families were met.
As time goes by, the aristocratic families monopolized the election of Zhongzheng officials. First of all, they can crush the poor family by their origins, and the education they received in aristocratic families is not as good as that of poor families. This has led to the situation of "the top-rank no poor family, and the lower-rank no noble family", but it has eased the relationship between the court and the aristocratic families.
Over time, the local people followed the leader of the aristocratic families. If the court wanted to maintain its rule, it needed to be recognized by the aristocratic families, and gradually the phenomenon of aristocratic families kidnapping the court.
How can this be done? What's the point of the court?
Li Shimin hated the aristocratic family the most. The reason was that Li Shimin wanted to marry the Cui family. As a result, the Cui family felt that the Li family was not worthy of others, so they refused to marry the Li family.
The story was that at that time, Li Shimin thought he was the emperor of the Tang Dynasty. Logically speaking, the surname Li was already very noble.
However, the seven sects and five surnames of the Tang Dynasty were the absolute wealthy families, and the Cui clan of Qinghe was one of them. The Cui clan did not take much attention to the Li family. The Li family, who established the Tang Dynasty, called themselves the nobles of Longxi, but the Cui clan always believed that it was the Li family who was giving their faces and did not recognize the Li family.
Li Shimin knew Cui's influence, so he decided to marry his daughter to their family and marry him. Li Shimin was still very confident. But the reality was very embarrassing. Cui was not interested in the marriage at all, so he refused after finding a few reasons. To put it bluntly, Cui thought that Li was a rookie and was not qualified to marry a traditional wealthy family like Cui. Li Shimin was slapped in the face, but he could only endure it.
Because of the comprehensive strength of the four major families of Cui Lu and Zheng Wang at that time, Li Shimin could only lament.
And this situation continued until the end of the Tang Dynasty. During the reign of Emperor Wenzong of Tang, when Emperor Wenzong of Tang wanted his son to marry the daughter of a noble family, but the aristocratic family still refused. Tang Wenzong was angry and said angrily: "People's marriage does not focus on status but on middle-class families. My Li family has been an emperor for more than two hundred years. Is it not as good as the Cui family and the Lu family?" The Wei and Jin dynasties have passed, but the influence of the aristocratic family still exists, which shows the influence of the aristocratic families on the people during the Wei and Jin dynasties.
Li You’s Chang'an University was just for the sake of future layout. Li You didn’t want to learn from Wu Zetian. Wu Zetian was a ruthless person. Wu Zetian was a businessman family. Compared with the Guanlong noble group, her background seemed to be low.
During the Tang Dynasty, whether the noble or not was not only his official position, but more importantly, the family and county guards not only competed with their fathers, but also with their grandfathers. Empress Wang's ancestors were Wang Sizheng, a general of the Western Wei Dynasty, a member of the Guanlong Group, and Concubine Xiao Shu was also a descendant of the Nanliang royal family. One represented the Guanlong nobles and the other represented the southern aristocrats. Wu Zetian's father could not even rank.
Therefore, Wu Zetian tried his best to cultivate a new aristocratic group that represented him. In order to defeat Changsun Wuji, Wu Zetian desperately relied on poor families, Xu Jingzong, Li Yifu, Yuan Gongyu... etc., these were all promoted by Wu Zetian.
But these people are not good things. Xu Jingzong was one of Li Shimin's 18 bachelors. However, Li Shimin knew that this guy was not a guy, so he never used him. As a result, the two people promoted by Wu Zetian became one of the top two treacherous officials in the New Tang Dynasty.
Here you can see Wu Zetian's desperate situation. She did this to consolidate her position, but it also caused the Tang Dynasty to lose its luck. More importantly, if you bring these poor children up for a while, if you don't receive inheritance in the future, there will be dynasties.
During the reign of Wu Zetian, the national strength of the Tang Dynasty declined. Wu Zetian's problem was to overthrow the entire political system in order to get ahead and cultivated a large number of people who would last forever. However, she was in power for more than ten years before her death and had no way to make arrangements. It can be said that she fought for the title of emperor for the rest of her life.
Wu Zetian changed the dynasty for his own selfish desire, but was unable to quickly stabilize the situation like Li Shimin. In the end, the country was trapped in power for decades, cruel officials were rampant, the country fell, and more than half of the household registration in the world fled. If he had not had the identity of an empress, he would have been ridiculed like Wang Mang.
There must be a war between Li You and Wu Zetian, because as long as Wu Zetian wants to be an emperor and as long as he wants to gain power, the person Wu Zetian must deal with is Li You. At this time, it depends on Li Zhi's attitude. Whether he believes in his fifth brother or his wife.
Or maybe Li You wouldn't give Wu Zetian the day she got up at all.
Chang'an University, as the chess piece that Li You had laid out for the future, finally began his operation, and on the other side, the Emperor Wu finally became closer to Li Zhi.
....................................
"Mei Niang..." In the palace, Li Zhi had just finished the government affairs for a day. Wu Meiniang walked in with a cup of soup. After seeing Wu Meiniang, a happy smile immediately appeared on Li Zhi's face.
Since Li Zhi returned to the palace, he immediately transferred Wu Meiniang to his side, because the talented person was the secretary who assisted the emperor, and Li Zhi also wanted to learn some government affairs. Li Shimin also deliberately let Li Zhi live in Ganlu Palace, which can be said to be extremely favored.
But Li Shimin would not have thought that his son actually had a strange idea about his woman.
This Wu Meiniang is also a powerful character. Wu Meiniang is simply free to do government affairs that seem very difficult to Li Zhi, which makes Li Zhi, who is originally a big shot, begin to rely on Wu Meiniang a little.
Li You cannot contact these government affairs, so Li Zhi cannot rely on Li You. For a moment, Wu Meiniang took advantage of a loophole and her relationship with Li Zhi became increasingly close.
"Is it delicious..." Wu Meiniang asked with a smile as she looked at Li Zhi who was drinking the soup.
"It tastes good...but the stew with my fifth brother is still a little worse."
"Your Highness of the King of Qi..." Wu Meiniang was a little surprised: "He can stew soup?"
"Of course... there is nothing in this world that my fifth brother can't make. Braised pork was actually made by my fifth brother. Although it was made with pork, it was sold crazy...!"
"Pork..." Wu Meiniang showed a disgusting expression.
Li Zhi smiled and nodded, "You have never eaten Mei Niang. Although it is pork, it is really delicious. You will know next time you have eaten it... Well... well...!" Li Zhi smiled and pointed and asked, "Mei Niang... Can you help me with this question?"
