"Rest assured, I won’t have any oversights. There were obvious defects in previous household registrations under the Aristocratic Family’s managent. This ti I will make up for it all, and Boning can also catch up on putting a rope noose around the Aristocratic Family." Li You nodded and said, the Aristocratic Family playing hide-and-seek with household registrations is genuinely difficult to manage, but this ti it’s possible.
"After taking an exam, I’ve discovered that you understand more." Chen Xi said with a smile. Previously, although Li You could understand Chen Xi’s actions, he occasionally showed dissatisfaction. However, after taking a formal exam, Li You clearly understood Chen Xi’s approach better.
"It’s not even the era for Humble Families to take the stage now." Jia Xu sighed heavily, answering Chen Xi’s question on behalf of Li You. "This era is still one supported and prospered by Aristocratic Rich Families."
"Yes, not to ntion the bottom-tier people, even the Humble Families might not be able to succeed in their counterattack." Chen Xi sighed, acknowledging the reality of this era.
The Three Kingdoms era was originally considered the last counterattack for Humble Families. Nurous Humble Scholars shone brilliantly, but they eventually disappeared like shooting stars. The Aristocratic Families permanently secured their status, and the Humble Families completely lost their upward path.
This is also the reason why Chen Xi suppresses the Aristocratic Families but never considered destroying them. He would rather gradually put a rope noose on the Aristocratic Families, tightening the noose generation after generation until they are completely bound, securing their position but not overturning them.
The Late Han was a turning point for the Aristocratic Family. To advance further ans enduring centuries of poison from the Aristocratic Family system; to retreat ans still being the representatives of the most advanced and moral elite, though relative to the common people of this era.
"Therefore, my approach to the Aristocratic Rich Families is always to guide them wherever possible. After all, they are the elite class of this era. Although the larger base of bottom-tier people is the foundation of the nation, it’s shaless to say, this group of people along with us form the governnt!" Chen Xi snickered as he revealed the side that could never change.
"We can reform the Aristocratic Families, but we can’t destroy them. The Ja Family and Li Family from Yongliang are indeed declining, but as long as you live, it ans that three generations later, we beco the ones we seek to overthrow now." Chen Xi helplessly looked at Jia Xu.
Li You and Jia Xu were both silent. They understood very well, as Chen Xi said, in the current world, frankly speaking, the Aristocratic Families and Local Tyrants form the governnt, while genuine bottom-tier people as officials constitute less than one percent!
"Therefore, I always believe that instead of having our descendants beco our adversaries one day, it would be better to leave them a path in advance." Chen Xi looked at Li You and Jia Xu, "Like hemp growing among the marjoram, it naturally stands erect; like white sand in the mud, it will turn black together. That is my hope."
"It’s ultimately a minority that can change the world. Even within the Aristocratic Families, perhaps not one in a million would remain unchanged due to worldly influences. After all, humans are social creatures, influenced by their surroundings in all their actions." Chen Xi gently laughed, explaining his philosophy.
"Since this is the case, try to reform the Aristocratic Families to a level I approve of, so that the ergent Aristocratic Families would inevitably have to align with that standard." Chen Xi laughed, very relaxed.
"Is that so?" Li You questioned indifferently.
"That’s exactly it, in the short term the Aristocratic Families will still be the ruling class. There’s no way to change that, and destroying the ruling class while being unable to establish a new one would an chaos in the world." Chen Xi said with a look of yearning.
"No matter how bad the rules are, they’re still better than no rules. Moreover, the Aristocratic Families restrained by land acquisitions can’t be considered bad rules." Chen Xi sighed as he looked at Li You, "So things can’t be rushed. The greater the haste, the more likely mistakes will occur."
"The phrase ’proceed gradually’ always seems sowhat conservative, but a slower pace is greatly beneficial for the adjustnt of the entire social structure." Chen Xi said, watching as Jia Xu frowned thoughtfully.
"I suppose what you say makes sense. Let the Aristocratic Families follow your current attempts, first develop the Northern Frontier fertile land, and then proceed with the plans you proposed." Li You spoke after lying silent for a mont, as so part of the Aristocratic Families must leave the Central Plains.
"To let them leave the Central Plains, we must ensure they have no worries. The Xun Family and Chen Family are the biggest baits I’ve set free, pressing others to do things is not my habit." Chen Xi gazed towards the Northeast, where the fertile land has already stirred the Aristocratic Families to action.
"Suit yourself, you’re better at these matters than I am. To be honest, other than occasionally being hit-or-miss with Ingenious Strategies, I haven’t seen anything you’re not good at." Li You shook his head, "In matters related to the Aristocratic Families, you’ll continue to handle them as before."
"Hmm, that’s no problem. Tomorrow morning I’ll go to give a suggestion to Lord Xuande, that I should take troops from Yingchuan to suppress Jingzhou and Sili." Chen Xi nodded.
"Even if you didn’t ntion that, we would proceed that way. Such matters should be dealt with sooner rather than later." Jia Xu blandly stated.
"Once I leave, if the Northern situation becos clear, it’ll depend on you two. This ti, Lord Xuande definitely can’t personally campaign. Once I leave, the commander heading north can only be Zilong, and the strategist must be one of you two." Chen Xi said, looking at Jia Xu and Li You.
"I’ll recomnd myself when the ti cos." Jia Xu thought and said, as Lub Su cannot leave, Xun Yue lacks experience as a military strategist of a large army, so it can only be one between him and Li You.
"I need to communicate with Zhongyu, and once Zilong pacifies the North, I’ll have plenty of things to prepare when developing the North. After Wen He takes to the field, the Ma Zheng will also be under my na." Li You pondered for a while and stated, as compared to Jia Xu, he is more suitable for handling internal affairs.
"Alright, then I will transfer the relevant accounts to you at that ti." Jia Xu nodded, "These transitions are all very straightforward exchanges."
"Arrange for Xiaoo Zhi to return at that ti, Wen He should guide Yuanzhi more. Xiaoo Zhi has now completely found his path, while Yuanzhi, although extrely talented, has wasted too much ti. Wen He, please guide him more." Chen Xi turned and instructed Jia Xu.
The battle report sent back by Xu Shu was also seen by Chen Xi. Xu Shu’s situation was completely reliant on his talents, making him very easy to be targeted, and under such circumstances, it’s necessary to teach so other things to compensate for Xu Shu’s shortcomings.
"That works. Should Boyan be taken to the Southern or Northern regions by you? I think you’ve made so mistakes in cultivating him; he’s more suited to the battlefield, and now it’s ti for him to experience it firsthand." Jia Xu asked inquiringly, showing his fondness for clever young won.
