Another thing is that I hope to win over the You family through Li Xun.

After Zhao Xun ascended the throne, he has been working hard to win over ministers and families from all sides. It seems to have good results and is quite expensive, but there is no other one who can truly be valued by Zhao Xun except for the Kou family where Kou Xiong is located.

Among the many aristocratic families, the You family is among the best, whether in terms of its long inheritance, status and fame. It also maintains a very good relationship with many aristocratic families such as Liu Jie, Liu Zhigu, Liu Congji, and the five major vassal states in Hebei, and has had many years of marriage relationships with many aristocratic families.

There are few people who survived the world in the older generation. The You family also has You Yuanfeng. He is highly respected and has a good reputation among the aristocratic families. He has a high reputation and high prestige. If he can win over the You family through Li Xun and get the strong support of the You family, the chain effect will definitely be extremely huge.

But obviously, You Yuanfeng was cunning and always kept a clear mind. He would not let the family fall into this huge storm. After Li Xun entered the Political Affairs Hall, You Yuanfeng began to deliberately support him behind his back, but this support was limited and he also had great reservations for Li Xun. Zhao Xun won over several times, and the You family was very cold and deliberately distanced him, which disappointed Zhao Xun very much.

Zhao Xun's wish and purpose to win over the You family through Li Xun is obviously unable to achieve it.

When Li Xun first joined the Political Affairs Hall, he had a passion and impulse in his heart. He wanted to do something, perhaps with famous officials and ministers like Yang Daosi and Liu Jie, who were famous all over the world, but it should be possible to do one or two meaningful things, and Li Xun also wanted to do it.

However, since he was officially appointed as the Prime Minister of the Political Affairs Hall, Li Xun discovered that ideals and reality are too far apart.

A gorgeous sword may look very dazzling and beautiful, but its real key is the sharpness of the sword blade. If you only look at the gorgeous appearance of the sword and do not pay attention to the blade itself, it is a beautiful decoration after all, and cannot play the role it should have.

Li Xun's current situation is like a gorgeous sword. The blade is in the sheath, and he cannot pull it out. If the blade is sharp, he will not be able to exercise the power of the prime minister intact.

What exactly restricts me?

Li Xun often thinks of this problem.

Li Xun has often thought about this issue recently.

The Jin Dynasty has been here for more than 500 years, with ups and downs, prosperity, decline, and revival. However, the world's momentum will be divided for a long time, and long together will be divided. This is a historical necessity and a necessary path for the feudal system.

As long as any group has money and power, it can have great cohesion. Asxs of the aristocratic family originated in the late Chu Dynasty.

In order to revitalize national strength, Chu Anzong intended to break the hereditary bureaucracy of the aristocracy and was determined to reform. Therefore, he was strongly resisted by the hereditary bureaucratic group of the aristocracy. Rebellions broke out everywhere and the world was in chaos. At that time, land annexation was very serious, and a powerful landlord force was gradually formed, including bureaucrats, merchants, and landlords. They had money, food and were famous in the local area, but they had no political way out. Their career was monopolized and blocked by the hereditary bureaucratic group of the aristocracy. They had long been extremely dissatisfied with this.

Chu Anzong was forced to a dead end by the aristocratic hereditary bureaucratic group, so he joined forces with local powerful landlords to launch a counterattack.

With the help of local powerful landlords, Chu Anzong finally achieved victory and reformed the political system, completely abolished the hereditary system of aristocratic bureaucratics that had lasted for more than a thousand years, and began to implement the system of recommendation. From this period, a large number of talents poured into the center of the court, and the local government and the central government were more closely linked. Human and material resources began to be highly concentrated. The Chu Dynasty's national strength was prosperous for a time and achieved the rejuvenation.

Unfortunately, Chu Anzong died too early, and the three emperors since him were all famous foolish monarchs, eunuchs took power, powerful ministers were in power, and politically corrupt. Chu Anzong would never have thought that the revival he achieved would be destroyed less than fifty years after his death.

The Jin Dynasty regime was established with the support of powerful landlords, and the Jin Dynasty emperors treated them very favorably. Therefore, the powerful landlords enjoyed political and economic privileges in the Jin Dynasty. They controlled the central and local governments politically, aggregated land economically, operated manors, and mastered the direction of worldly public opinion, gradually became separatist, and gradually became famous families.

The prevalence of the gentry system depends on various laws issued by the ruling class. The introduction of laws institutionally safeguards the privileges of the gentry landlords in various aspects such as politics, economy, culture, and social life.

At the beginning of the establishment of the Jin Dynasty, the external environment was harsh and powerful Hu people gradually moved towards the unified and established Tubo, and the once powerful Funan Dynasty. At that time, the Jin Dynasty had just ended its long-term division and war. The people's livelihood was in decline, the people were seeking peace, and the soldiers were tired of war. In order to gain the support of the landlords of the aristocratic families, the emperor of the Jin Dynasty increased his indulgence and envelopment of them. It was from this period that the aristocratic family system began to take shape.

More than a hundred years after the founding of the Jin Dynasty, the national strength entered its heyday. The Hu tribe split again. Five large-scale western expeditions completely destroyed the entire Tubo dynasty. Tubo began to surrender to the Jin Dynasty. The powerful Funan Dynasty fell into a large-scale civil strife and the external situation was very good.

During this period, after more than a hundred years of development, the family of economy and power had great power, and developed into dozens of families. They monopolized the career of officialdom, annexed land, dominated politics, and dominated the overall situation of the world. Their power was enough to stand with the imperial power, and even surpassed the imperial power. Several generations of emperors of the Jin Dynasty were controlled by the aristocratic families. Those who were unwilling to be humiliated were either killed or deposed. If the emperor wanted to exercise power, he had to rely on their support, and the aristocratic politics reached its peak.

After Xuanzong ascended the throne, he was unwilling to be puppets and undermining. He had been in charge of Longyou for several years and had a very close relationship with the Longyou military group. Using this as his backer and foundation, he launched a full-scale counterattack against the aristocratic families. In addition, among the many aristocratic families at that time, there were also some knowledgeable people who hoped that the aristocratic families and imperial power would coexist, rather than live to the death. Therefore, after Xuanzong launched the reform and counterattack, a considerable number of aristocratic families chose to surrender to the imperial power, which led to the union between the powerful aristocratic families and eventually split.

Xuanzong finally won victory and began to carry out large-scale political reforms, divided the six ministries, and carried out imperial examinations.

However, Xuanzong's reform was not thorough, and many political matters eventually compromised and concessions with the aristocratic family groups.
