Chapter 176 Enfeoffment(2/3)

"Fengzi, Lord Chu doesn't want you to serve in the Chu Kingdom..."

Feng Yun looked calm and had no worries about this.

Instead, he said: "What about you, what's your position?"

Qu Yuan was stunned, seeing that Feng Yun didn't care, and he also understood that Feng Yun really had no intention of serving in the Chu Kingdom.

This time, Chu Jun and Feng Yun were thinking the same thing.

"Uncle Zong, Uncle Zong of Chu State."

The gloominess in Qu Yuan's eyes became darker.

Feng Yun is very clear about the responsibilities of the uncle Zong, and they mainly focus on the rituals and sacrifices of the clan or the country.

This was the most suitable position for Qu Yuan, a man who had won a ceremonial victory from the state of Zeng.

Even Feng Yun was a little surprised.

When Feng Yun came to Chu, Qu Yuan was just a ceremonial sergeant. When he went to Zeng State, he was a subordinate official. When he returned to the country, he was about to become Zongbo.

As a viscount in the State of Chu, there can be no duke or minister, and the chief official is the highest official, so this uncle is the chief official.

Of course, there are also different levels of senior officials, mostly based on their position.

"You can be considered to have reached the top of a country." Feng Yun sighed.

Qu Yuan smiled bitterly.

"Fengzi, don't say it, it's just in accordance with family arrangements."

at home.

Feng Yun looked at Qu Yuan and asked, "The previous uncle Zong was also the Qu family?"

Qu Yuan nodded.

"The Qu family has many eldest uncles."

Feng Yun didn't know the positions of Chu and their respective families.

Then he asked them one by one.

turn out to be.

In addition to Uncle Zong, the chief minister of Chu State is also the Qu family, and he is also the head of the Qu family. He is now old.

However, the Sima of Chu State is Zhaoyang, and the Zhao family is a talented person, but now he is only in his thirties.

The rest.

Situ is a member of the Zhao family of Chu State and is now very old.

Sikou is a member of the Jing family of Chu State and is now very old.

Sikong is from the Jing family of Chu State, and is still in his prime.

It can be said that over the years, these six high positions have been ruled by the three families of Qu, Zhao and Jing in turn.

Several of them are already old. For them, it is time to let the younger generations come forward and hide in the rear.

As for the juniors on stage, they can secretly help them for a few years without making any mistakes.

And many of the officials under these six positions, from top to bottom, were controlled by various large and small families, among which the three families of Qu, Zhao and Jing were the most common.

In such a dynasty, there are not enough positions for the powerful and powerful, so how can they be given to the common people?

After thinking about it, Feng Yun shook his head helplessly.

The same was true for his "Jiuli Shibu" when he was in Baiyue, but his "Big and Small Gongbei" prohibited incompetent people in these positions. Therefore, both the great and small princes need talented people under their command. If there are not enough in the clan, they must

To seek outside the clan is to seek the guest, in order to leave a path for the common people to ascend.

But obviously, Chu State does not have such a path.

Not necessarily, Guan Zhong would not have chosen the state of Chu for his policy.

And Sergeant Fan in Yuyue also has to leave his hometown to make a living...

"Are you unwilling to be controlled by the clan? Even if you have made up your mind to serve the Chu Kingdom for the rest of your life, you still can't help yourself?"

Feng Yun asked Qu Yuan with a smile.

The corners of Qu Yuan's mouth moved slightly, and finally he sighed.

"Under Fengzi's view of the world, it turns out that even without explaining it, you can understand the affairs of the powerful and powerful people in Chu State."

Feng Yun raised his hand and poured tea for Qu Yuan again. Qu Yuan hurriedly took the teapot, not daring to do so.

Feng Yun was helpless.

"You..."

Feng Yun took a sip of tea poured by Qu Yuan.

"You copied the complete copy of my book "The Kingdoms: Baiyue" before. Wouldn't this book help you become a great leader?"

Just read the book and look at the Qu family. People of the Qu family will naturally know how to choose between the top ceremonial officials and the top political officials.

Qu Yuan was stunned.

"Fengzi, I didn't ask you to..."

Feng Yun shook his head.

"At the beginning, I asked me whether I should be alone or reach out to others. You knew my choice. Now that my way is in your hands, why do you hide it in your hands and ignore others?"

"Go ahead, if you can make decisions for the people, I will only be happy."

When Qu Yuan heard this, he sobbed and said, "Fengzi, I have troubled you to consider Yuan."

Feng Yun smiled lightly and looked at the already late sky.

"Let's go back."

Qu Yuan stood up.

"Fengzi, your Majesty's decree will be issued tomorrow, and I will take you to inspect the fiefdom outside Yingdu."

"manor……"

"Fengzi, don't refuse. You can't repay Chu's virtues with a fiefdom."

"Haha." Feng Yun's eyes flashed slightly and he said softly: "The fiefdom is of no use to me. I wonder if I can tell Lord Chu so that Yunneng can have a look at the tenth palace of the Palace of Classics?"

When he first came to Chu, Feng Yun could only visit the nine palaces. Feng Yun was more interested in the tenth palace than the so-called fiefdom.

"Tenth House?"

Qu Yuan said: "Fengzi, the tenth palace is actually the study room of every Chu king in the Palace of Classics. They are all abandoned manuscripts and old miscellaneous things. There is nothing strange... If you want to see it, just ask Chu Jun. No need to

Use the fiefdom as compensation."

After saying this, Qu Yuan bowed and left.

"Why do I want to entrust the land to Chu? My heart is not in Chu, but in the human race."

Feng Yun watched Qu Yuan walk away, and then put away the tea on the low table.

The maid thought that Feng Yun was about to fall asleep, but Feng Yun said: "Go and find some silk scrolls and bamboo slips."

"promise."

Feng Yun has no sleep for the moment.

Pick up the pen.

Desire to write - "Chronicles of Nations·Chu".

Ambition is the history of a place.

There is history to record the past and present events.

Modern history records the customs and national conditions.

Feng Yun was still unclear about Chu's national conditions at this time.

You need to go among the Chu people to see it, so he can only write the past history first, and then the current history.

As for how to write the history of Chu State...

Very simple.

It is only necessary to integrate the messy "History of Chu" in the Chu State's Classical Palace, mark the dates, from ancient times to the present, and make it clear and clear, so that even the people of Chu can understand these histories.

"History is the only way for the people to belong."

"Why Baiyue can easily unite even if it is a small country with scattered tribes? It is because it has history to rely on, is born from the same origin, and has the same ancestral beliefs. Their sacrifices are the same, interoperable, and can be integrated."

"And Chu State..."

How much do the people of Chu know about the past?

Their sense of identification with Chu is probably disappearing from generation to generation. Perhaps only the older generation still remembers the generosity of their ancestors and the hardships of Chu.
