Transmigrated into the book to become the villain prince, the son of the plane to destroy

At that time, the prince Xiao Qiu was deposed because he tried to win over the courtiers and generals of the forbidden army, and the position of the crown prince was vacant for a while. Although she has made great achievements in the court, because of the low status of the mother and concubine, there is no chance of winning at all.

However, after some discussion with his mother and concubine, Xiao Ji decided to marry the Langya Wang family who was in full swing at that time, and married the daughter of the Langya Wang family owner and Shang Shuling Wang Chong as his side concubine. On the grounds that Xiao Ji made great contributions in the First Battle of Hexi, he requested that Xiao Ji be registered as the crown prince.

In the end, under the pressure of his officials, Xiao Xuan had no choice but to formally appoint his son Xiao Ji, whom he was not optimistic about, as the crown prince.

But Xiao Xuan loved Zheng Shufei at that time, loved the house and Wu, and even wanted to make Xiao Yang, the son of Zheng Shufei, as the heir. Therefore, he had moved Yi Chu's mind more than once, but every time he would attract strong opposition from the ministers headed by Shang Shuling Wang Chong, so he had to let it go In the end, after Xiao Xuan's death, Xiao Ji successfully inherited Daning's Jiangshan Sheji.

After Xiao Ji ascended the throne, he was naturally very grateful to the Langya Wang family. In order to repay the favor, he not only made the side concubine Wang Chong a noble concubine, but also made Wang Chong the prime minister, and even appointed Wang Chong's son Wang Cheng as the governor of Liangzhou, in charge of 30 Northwest As a result of the frontier army, the Wang family became the number one family in the world, and the limelight was unparalleled for a while.

But who knows that this is also the beginning of the expansion of the royal family. Not to mention the domineering concubine Wang Guifei in the harem, Wang Chong forms a party in the court for personal gain, eliminates dissidents, and controls the government. His son Wang Cheng is even the governor of Liangzhou The last time he stayed for more than ten years, he wantonly squeezed out generals who disobeyed him, obediently obeyed the orders of the court, and regarded the 30 northwest frontier troops in Daning as his and the royal family's private army.

All these things completely exhausted Xiao Ji's gratitude to the Wang family for supporting him in the past, leaving only deep disgust and hatred, always wanting to get rid of the Wang family and then quickly.In his opinion, only by eradicating the Wang family can he be an emperor who truly wields power in the world.

But at this moment, Xiao Jie's words aroused the hidden worry in his heart all along, even if the Wang family was eradicated, there would still be a new aristocratic family to replace it, and he would not be able to show his strength if he was hindered everywhere.

Xiao Jie saw his father's expression in his eyes, and knew that his words had an effect, so he continued to strike while the iron was hot: "Father, since the rise of the aristocratic family has endangered our rule in Daning, we must find a way to weaken the aristocratic family. The power of the big clan, only in this way can the Daning country be established forever."

Xiao Ji looked at his son with a trace of relief in his eyes, and secretly felt that he had seen the right person, but he still shook his head and sighed: "I understand your thoughts, but the power of the aristocratic family is far beyond your imagination. You can only do it slowly, and you must not act rashly. If you start an academy and recruit children from ordinary people, you are shaking their foundation and violating their fundamental interests. They will never let it go. .”

Although Xiao Ji said it bitterly, Xiao Jie still insisted on his own opinion: "Father, in the eyes of my ministers, it is precisely because of the great power of the aristocratic family that if you try to do it slowly, you will only hurt their superficiality, and they will not be able to shake their foundation at all. If you want to deal with them, you can only attack the vital point and break their monopoly on Confucian classics."

"I know that it is not easy to deal with the big family, but it is because of the difficulty that I have to do it. If the father refuses to take the first step, he will push the matter to the succeeding descendants of the Xiao family. As the power of the aristocratic family grows stronger, I am afraid that it will be more difficult to deal with them in the future, and there will be more dangers of turmoil in the country and the world."

Xiao Ji remained silent for a while, obviously Xiao Jie's words also touched him, especially that sentence, he refused to take the first step, and just pushed the matter to the succeeding descendants of the Xiao family.

All of a sudden, Xiao Ji had an illusion in his heart that his father was not as insightful and courageous as his son.

He also knew that what Xiao Jie said was right, if he didn't find a way to weaken the power of the aristocratic family now and let them grow bigger, he might not be able to move them even in the future.

Thinking of this, Xiao Ji's eyes no longer hesitated, and asked in a deep voice: "Okay, I understand, I will issue this edict to promote the school. Besides, what else do I need to do, let's go with it now Let me bring it up."

Xiao Jie heaved a long sigh of relief, knowing that he had finally convinced Xiao Ji, he also made up his mind to support him against the aristocratic family.

Xiao Jie was not polite either, and said directly with a smile: "I hope that my father will lend the books in the Hongwen Library to my son for copying."

Without any hesitation, Xiao Ji smiled and nodded in agreement on the spot.

He understood his son's thoughts. The family studies of aristocratic families all have a complete set of Confucian classics books, so that their children can master more systematic and complete Confucian classics knowledge, which is also a major advantage for the children of aristocratic families in the imperial examination.

However, compared with the collection of books in the aristocratic family, the Secretary Hongwen Library, as the library of the Daning royal family, is undoubtedly more complete and complete. If these classics books are used to teach students, the advantages of the aristocratic children will disappear.

It’s just that the number of these books is astonishing, and I don’t know that he will send someone to copy them until the year of the monkey, but I heard that there is a method called woodblock printing on the market, but I don’t know if he will try it.

"It's probably not enough for the new academy to have these books. If there is no great Confucianism in the world to preach and teach, and give advice from time to time, I'm afraid these students are still far inferior to the children of these aristocratic families." Xiao Ji seemed to have thought of something, and took the initiative Remind Xiao Jie.

Xiao Jie smiled slightly, playing with the taste: "Father, don't worry, my son will talk to Su Pushe."

Xiao Ji was dumbfounded for a moment, he almost forgot that Xiao Jie was Su Hong's grandson-in-law. In terms of knowledge, there are few people in the world who can compare with Su Hong, but the Su family can be regarded as a low-class family, but they don't know that their son Can Su Hong be moved, after all, no one knows Su Hong's stubborn temper.

But if he can really convince Su Hong, with the knowledge of Su Hong and his students, plus the collection of books in Hongwen Library, maybe the students he teaches can really compete with the children of aristocratic families in the imperial examination.

On the contrary, Xiao Ji felt a lot more confident in his heart, and he could see that his son was obviously making a decision before acting on the matter of dealing with the aristocratic family, and it was not a moment of enthusiasm.

Seeing that the matter of establishing the academy had fallen to the ground, Xiao Jie smiled and said: "My son also brought good news to my father today, that is, the Tao family is willing to donate 1000 million taels of silver to my father to encourage the establishment of the school. My son suggested that my father could use this money to set up a 'Jingxing Scholarship' to reward outstanding students who are hardworking and studious."

Even though Xiao Ji had been prepared in his heart, he couldn't help but secretly startled. He didn't expect the Tao family to be so generous, and donated to him a silver tael equivalent to Daning's three-month tax as soon as he made a move.

But Xiao Jie's suggestion made him understand that if he grants scholarships to those outstanding students in his own name, they will definitely be grateful to him, the emperor, and once they are named on the gold list in the future, they will definitely become his most steadfast support Those who help themselves against the constraints of family officials.

Xiao Ji took a deep look at Xiao Jie: "You tell Tao Lu for me, I have accepted the Tao family's money, and I have also remembered the Tao family's favor."

Xiao Jie understood that if Xiao Ji accepted the money from the Tao family and immediately added officials to Tao Lu, he would inevitably be suspected of selling his officials and ranks, which would damage the prestige of the emperor, so he had to find another opportunity to repay the Tao family in the future.

Xiao Jie finished what he had to say, and just about to leave, Xiao Ji opened a drawer of the imperial table, took out a delicate box, opened it, took out half a tiger talisman from it, handed it to Xiao Jie, and said in a deep voice: "This You put away half of the Tiger Talisman, if you encounter any danger, take it and go to see Zhou Yan."

Xiao Jie's eyes were slightly red. He knew that Xiao Ji was worried about his safety. After all, he was about to offend the entire family. In order to protect the interests of his family, the other party would do everything to deal with him. With the Tiger Talisman in hand, it is equivalent to him controlling the entire Right Jinwu Guard. This is not only Xiao Ji's care and protection for him, but also a kind of trust in him.

Xiao Jie didn't say anything, just silently stepped forward to take half of the tiger talisman, and then left.

Xiao Ji watched Xiao Jie's leaving back quietly, his expression was a little dazed for a while, and he couldn't recover for a long time.

It wasn't until Lian Yi who came in couldn't help calling him in a low voice, that Xiao Ji finally came back to his senses, looked at Lian Yi at the side, and couldn't help laughing: "Old thing, I didn't misunderstand the person, maybe Huang'er will too." He is a wise king, but only Yu'er can make a difference in this world."
