Chapter 1406 The Roots of the Big Tree
It's not that he has any conflicts with the Ji family. On the contrary, the Ji family is actually quite united.
Ji Chang has a very good brotherly relationship with the current head of the Ji family, Ji Xuekong's father.
He also has a very good relationship with his father, the old owner of the family who has retired and started growing flowers.
It's just that he was the mentor of the former prince. Even though his relationship with the Ji family and his personal influence in the world's literati circle allowed him to survive until now with his roots intact, he had to pay attention to the emperor's thoughts.
The mark of a former princeling runs deep on him.
Even though the former prince has been dead for almost 20 years, he is still the most obvious former princeling.
However, in fact, no matter how deep the mark is, as long as you are willing to change and polish it over time, those things will be removed sooner or later, but Ji Chang is not willing to remove those marks that have fallen on himself.
He never concealed his recognition and following of the former prince. For this reason, he was not only not afraid of death, but also kept a distance from his family for a long time. Since the emperor came to power, he has never returned to the Ji family.
For this reason, he had never participated in the growth of his nephew Ji Xuekong.
Therefore, when he said that he believed that Ji Xuekong had some family feelings for him when he was young, it was just a euphemism. It is difficult for two people who have never gotten along to have any deep feelings, even if they are relatives.
In addition, Ji Xuekong once told him very clearly that he thought the former prince was a stupid person, which completely touched the back of Ji Chang, who regarded the former prince as a lifelong friend.
Ji Chang didn't draw his sword and chop Ji Xuekong to death on the spot because Ji Xuekong was his nephew.
And to this day, Ji Xuekong still has not changed his disappreciation of the former prince.
In his opinion, the benevolence and righteousness of the monarch is the cruelty of the people. The so-called benevolent monarchs in history all have the side of being resolute and ruthless and taking action when necessary. The so-called benevolence and righteousness of the former prince was okay when he was the prince.
After all, it can help him win over many people.
But if you really want to become an emperor, you will be ignored sooner or later. The Ji family is the first to ignore the emperor.
Although Ji Chang was very angry when he heard what Ji Xuekong said, he also recognized some aspects.
The former prince did have some issues with being too benevolent and righteous.
But with him and people like Boran around at that time, there was no problem for the prince to be too benevolent and righteous.
On the contrary, they feel that this way, they, the doers, can do things better.
You won't meet a boss who doesn't know anything and is still dictating.
As for what Ji Xuekong said about the problem of the aristocratic family becoming bigger, it's ridiculous. Even if the emperor centralized power, wouldn't the aristocratic family be able to grow big?
Isn't the imperial family the largest aristocratic family?
Moreover, Ji Chang himself is a member of the Ji family. If the Ji family grows bigger, what’s the problem?
He believed that both he and his brother, Ji Xuekong's father, had this ability.
So the former prince's coming to power is an excellent result for the Ji family.
Unlike now, the emperor is afraid, and all the major families are shrinking from themselves. They don't even dare to participate too actively in the career of their children, which has led to the rise of many small families that were originally inconspicuous.
It can be seen that the biggest conceptual problem between Ji Chang and Ji Xuekong is not only the problem with the former prince, but also their respective views on the development of the Ji family. Ji Chang feels that there is no problem for the Ji family to grow bigger.
Ji Xuekong felt that the roots of the big trees hidden under the ground were the most important and safe.
The part that emerges from the earth, no matter how strong and beautiful it is, its life depends on wind, frost, rain, dew and underground roots.
