girl let me check

Chapter 240 She could have risen from the ashes
"Teacher, I don't understand."

Fang Tang wrinkled his picturesque eyebrows and shook his head.

"Qinghuo Academy is almost entirely run by the Eighth surname. Without unexpected events, I can't think of how we can get them to open up quotas."

The ragdoll cat smiled meaningfully.

"Your planning level is not inferior to mine, and I am far inferior to you in terms of talent and quick thinking. But there is always an unavoidable thorn in your thoughts, which is like pinching your life gate, You will never be able to think of some surprising means of victory."

"That spike...is called: The noble family must die."

The orange light shone on the girl's cheek, and Fang Weihan could clearly see the slight trembling of her long eyelashes.

"The aristocratic family must die, but this is not a problem you should consider. You are too eager to achieve success, but you ignore one person. The power of a generation will eventually have its limit. Have you ever heard of Yu Gong moving mountains? The aristocratic family is that big mountain."

The ragdoll cat touched his beard and shook his head.

"In order to achieve certain goals, we can take the initiative to give up some of the chips we have. You might as well... think more about the family and ask them what they want most?"

"What the family hopes for most..."

Fang Tang murmured to himself.

"It's nothing more than power and benefit. Only by having power can you benefit. They need to take power first, otherwise the handle of this benefit will be firmly in the hands of others. This is something that the Eight Surnames will never tolerate."

Ragdoll Cat said calmly.

"Part of the power of the Great Zhou Dynasty is in the hands of the emperor, and part is in the hands of the eight surnames, but apart from these? Where is the power vacuum?"

It was as if a ray of light suddenly lit up in Fang Tang's eyes, and the gloomy aura that had just wrapped around his whole person disappeared.

The princess of the empire is often able to forget many unpleasant things when discussing strategies for governing the country.

"Teacher, you mean...those aristocratic families other than the eight surnames?"

"Well, you finally understand."

Fang Weihan couldn't help laughing.

The ragdoll cat chased its own tail and spun around twice, seemingly trying to bite its own tail.

"These other aristocratic families are often local wealthy families, and it is difficult for them to have a say in the central government. Although they are vulnerable when they are alone, if they are twisted into a rope, they can also be a huge force. "

"The Uehara Wang family will not take action against them. They want to be the leader of the family, not a tyrant. The other seven surnames among the eight surnames will not let them grow bigger, and will definitely stop them secretly. But they will not, It doesn’t mean you don’t want to.”

"It is far easier to do something in the name of the emperor than in the name of Zhongshu Ling. Are you right?"

On the point of centralization of power, the royal family and the eight surnames have a common appeal.The emperor does not want the aristocratic family to exist, and the eight surnames do not want the other aristocratic families to exist.

If the eight surnames could negotiate a reasonable distribution plan, they would have been able to distribute all the power of the world's aristocratic families long ago.

But obviously, due to various complicated historical legacies and interest disputes, they have never been able to negotiate a distribution plan that can be accepted by everyone.

Even 500 years later, the current peaceful situation has collapsed.The Lanling Xiao family and the Uehara Wang family, who were in charge of the world's intelligence, broke up directly, and they both went to the point of fighting each other.

And this gave the emperor an excellent opportunity.

It is a pity that emperors of all dynasties have not grasped it.

Fang Tang listened to what Fang Weihan said, his face flushed with abnormal excitement.

"If that's the case...it seems really possible..."

The girl took a deep breath to calm her wildly beating heart.

"After you have a secret meeting with the original Wang family, get rid of the other seven surnames, and kick several medium-sized families out of the political system, you can exchange this for partial immunity from the official selection of Qinghuo Academy."

Ragdoll continued.

"The Uehara Wang family will definitely agree, even if this decision may be detrimental to their long-term interests."

In most cases, a small amount of liquid capital and a huge amount of long-term dead deposits are definitely the former.

Qinghuo Academy is just opening up places for poor families, it's not a big deal at all.

"Teacher! I think this plan is really feasible!"

Fang Tang grabbed a roll of bamboo and paced back and forth excitedly in the room.

The girl's fragrance brought up by the movement was like a small brush, blowing back and forth across the tip of Fang Weihan's nose.

Fang Tang now feels that his teacher is really right. He can really give him real and useful suggestions instead of false and empty bullshit sage words.

Those things are for the common people. Why would a princess like me listen to these things?
Fang Tang now really wants to pick up the cat and give it a kiss.

I used to think cats were cute, but now I think they are even cuter.

To her surprise, the Ragdoll cat still tapped the table with its paw, as if it still had something to say.

"More than that, this is our first step."

Of course Fang Weihan would not stop there.

The big killer weapon that can truly impact the family's power is yet to come.

"Do you know why the imperial examination system of the previous dynasty was abolished? Instead, it was replaced by the even more stupid Shiguan Academy system?"

Fang Weihan asked.

"Well... I remember Emperor Gaozu said that the aristocratic families and the emperor are responsible for governing the world, and the people at the bottom only need to live and work in peace and contentment."

When Fang Tang said this, he couldn't help but blush with shame.

The words of my ancestor are obviously fooling ghosts!
"Have you ever thought about it, since the people can't see the promotion path, why don't they resist?"

The Ragdoll cat continued to ask,

"There was resistance."

Fang Tang recalled the history he knew.

"The 13th year of Zhengzhi was the biggest one. Because the officials of the aristocratic family imposed excessive taxes and deceived the superiors and subordinates, the people of the entire southern county of Jingzhou protested collectively. Dozens of counties and villages joined together to echo each other, saying that they would live in seclusion in the Qinling Mountains with their families. Come back again.”

"The results of it?"

"As a result, the day after they issued the statement, the heads of dozens of leaders were hung on the gate of Nanjun City. People at the time called it 'City Hanging Heads'."

When Fang Tang said these things, he couldn't help but reveal a hint of helplessness and sadness.

Those were her people of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and of course the princess of the empire would not bear to let them die miserably in this way.

Fang Weihan also knew about this.

During the Zhengzhi period, it was the period when the power of the aristocratic families was on the rise. These common people had interests that they could never touch.

So they used thunderous means to solve the matter neatly and neatly.

The existence of practitioners has reduced the cost of law enforcement to almost a minimum.

The common people do not have the resources to practice. This is the most fundamental inequality between them and the aristocratic families.

With a dozen mortal bodies, they might be able to kill a first-level Mingwu monk with their numerical advantage.

Dozens of mortals might be able to compete with a second-level monk.

What about a third-level or fourth-level ascension monk who can even crack mountains and crack rocks?
What if they formed a systematic cooperation?

The Mingwu monks charged forward, the Five Elements monks released the elemental power of mass destruction, and the formation masters and doctors assisted from the side.

Such a combination can produce dozens of times more combat power than fighting alone. This is a loss that human sea tactics cannot bear.An army whose morale does not collapse even after a third of its casualties is already an iron army. How can we expect the loosely organized civilians to charge to the death and not flee?
"The chariots of the great men ran over the flesh and blood of the people, suppressing all the shouts into the city walls, where the accumulated flesh and blood was rotting and stinking."

The Ragdoll sighed.

"How much resentment do you think the common people have accumulated for 500 years with no hope of promotion? If in this situation, there is an emperor who lends a helping hand to them and trusts them wholeheartedly, do you think What are the chances that they will remain loyal?"

"The incident at Qinghuo Academy is just the beginning. Later, we can use this as an excuse to start a mechanism to select talents from the lower classes through examinations. Only in this way can we fundamentally shake the power of the family."

Fang Tang stopped talking.

She was stunned by the huge power hidden behind Fang Weihan's words.

After the girl was silent for a moment, she suddenly picked up the ragdoll cat that was caught off guard and rubbed it hard.

Fang Weihan: "?"

"Teacher, I like you so much hehe..."

Her voice was buried in Fang Weihan's fur and became a little muffled.

But it's not hard to hear the girl's ecstasy.

"Let go of me first."

The ragdoll cat kept kicking its legs in her hands and finally struggled out.

"The things we are talking about now are for reference only. At least they must be based on the separation of imperial power and family power. The current situation... is absolutely unacceptable."

"I know!"

Fang Tang's pretty face turned red with excitement, but she didn't take it to heart at all.

"The teacher is my teacher. He is only responsible for theoretical guidance! After all, this is what I lack! Of course, these specific things are left to me to worry about!"

"I have a hundred ways to seize power from the noble family, but I just have no chance to use it. The day I leave the cabinet is the beginning of my regaining power!"

The girl waved her fist confidently.

The ragdoll cat flicked its tail and looked deeply.

To be fair, Fang Tang's cards at this time were not bad.

Even if the emperors of the Zhou Dynasty lost everything, they did not lose the power of the imperial army in the camp in the north of the city.

Zuo Shenzhao, Zuo Shenwu, Zuo Longwu, the strongest Six Guards among the Sixteen Guards, a total of 12 people, still obey the emperor's edict, and most of their leaders are close relatives of the clan.

Royal vassals in various places were still able to suppress the power of aristocratic families locally, and the court was not entirely without officials close to the emperor.Outside the general environment, there are still unifying contradictions that can be transferred to prevent the country from being destroyed.

It will be 500 years before we really get to this point.

With Fang Tang's ability, Fang Weihan believed that even without herself, she could change the world ruled by aristocratic families.

but……

All Fang Tang's ambitions and great ideas are destined to be unrealized.

The splendid life she was about to begin ended abruptly on the day she left the cabinet.

The fire in Changming Beigong destroyed everything and drowned the heir with the most luck in the history of the Great Zhou Dynasty in the torrent of time.

The ragdoll cat looked at the girl who was thinking excitedly at the side with some fascination.

A burst of great sadness instantly buried him.

She was supposed to usher in a new life after a fire, but who knew that she ended up being reduced to ashes.

When the world was not destroyed, no one could remember her, and no one stood by her side.

There was no one to dispel the darkness with her, and no one to say a word of praise to her gently.Even though she tried her best.

Now that the world is about to be destroyed, he is ordered to travel through time and bring her back to the future.

The price is the life of another girl with a similar fate to hers.

Is this...the so-called cause and effect?
"Teacher! What do you think we should design as questions when we set up the exam?"

Fang Tang's excited voice interrupted Fang Weihan's thoughts.

The ragdoll cat looked at the beautiful face of the girl in front of him and couldn't help but laugh.

On the contrary, he was sentimental. Even though her situation was worse than his own, she could still be in high spirits.

Those who wanted her dead were fighting for power and wealth in a state of drunkenness and wealth, talking about character and elegance.

But she was ecstatic to find a truly useful strategy for governing the country.

Fang Weihan felt that if he were destiny, he would let this girl live.

"It is well-founded and can be used as a scoring standard. It has low learning cost and can be promoted on a large scale. It has strong learning value and can shape talents."

Ragdoll cat said calmly.

"Well, in addition to this, the scope of investigation must be wide. You cannot draw conclusions based on just one standard."

Fang Tang couldn't help but nod, and at the same time he didn't forget to add something.

Fang Weihan glanced at her.

"It seems like you already have the answer in your mind?"

"Correct!"

The lights reflected in Fang Tang's eyes flickered, and the blush on her pretty face had not yet dissipated.

The girl's rosy cheeks showed that the princess was full of conversation.

"I think the Four Books and Five Classics are good!"

Fang Tang said with a smile.

doll cat:"……"

It can only be said that she is worthy of being a princess of the empire. She actually came up with the best answer after a moment of trial and error after thinking for a moment.

"The original intention of our examination is to select talents and select talents who are loyal to the emperor."

"In this case, aren't those pedantic saints' words and those loyal and patriotic ideas that the previous dynasty tried to promote the best test questions? Those things can't change me, but they can change others."

Fang Tang looked at Fang Weihan with burning eyes, looking forward to his answer.

"Of course, we can't just take this test. After all, our country cannot be governed by schoolbags. I also want to add current commentaries and poems and songs."

"What do you think, teacher? Is it too difficult..."

The Ragdoll sighed.

"Although what you just said is a bit extreme, there is nothing wrong with it."

"I think your plan is perfect. It only needs a period of experimentation and piloting before it can be implemented on a large scale."

The reason for his sigh was: Fang Tang was too smart.

He felt a little pity when he thought that such a great lady with ideals, ambitions and means... that such a great lady did not survive.

If Fang Tang really survives, then maybe his situation will be greatly improved, and he will no longer be a prince in vain.
