The existence of various vassal kings.
It doesn't matter whether it's good or bad, it's a problem Zhu Xiongying must face in the future.
The system of enfeoffment during the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods made it impossible for the various vassal states to lose their tails.
Chaos in the Central Plains,
It was not until the First Emperor that Liuhe was reunified.
In the Han Dynasty, prefectures, counties and feudal states coexisted.
Liu Bang originally wanted to use a king with the same surname to squeeze out a king with a different surname.
But Wang with the same surname has too much power.
Forced to learn Chinese, Han Jing, Han Wu,
Three generations of emperors were cutting down vassals.
During the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty,
It’s completely finished!
Let’s not talk about the enfeoffment system of the Jin Dynasty.
Purely rotten.
And the next enfeoffment is Lao Zhu’s.
It's even more interesting.
Why did the emperor want to cut down the vassals?
Because the imperial power needs to be centralized.
So what if the people guarding the vassal outside are the royal family? Now you can use blood ties,
What about two or three generations later?
Who still recognizes this blood relationship?
If the hands are powerful but the center is weak, the rebellion will be over!
Duke Zhou made great efforts to enfeoff, and how many royal families were divided among them?
One hundred years later,
People should make trouble or make trouble.
Blood ties cannot withstand the dilution of time.
Therefore, when the emperor came to power, he had to cut down the feudal vassals.
This is something that has to be done!
Zhu Xiongying looked at Yao Guangxiao,
smiled,
Apparently he didn't take the reduction of vassalage seriously.
but,
He really wanted to hear what Yao Guangxiao had to say.
If it's those clichés,
What are you saying that the king in Wai Fortress is your royal uncle, and you can use it if you can?
So,
Yao Guangxiao is no good.
It's just trying to pick apart people's wisdom.
Yao Guangxiao is choosing Zhu Xiongying, so why isn't Zhu Xiongying choosing Yao Guangxiao?
This is a test for Yao Guangxiao.
Yao Guangxiao didn't even hesitate for a moment.
Obviously I have thought about this answer countless times in my mind.
"Your Highness, this poor monk thought that after Your Highness succeeded to the throne,
If you can use it, use it. There is no need to cut it off.
If these vassal kings are powerful, they can be destroyed with a snap of a finger. "
Hearing this, Zhu Xiongying's eyes became a little more playful.
After my father died, Prince Jianwen and his faction were jumping up and down every day to cut down the vassalage.
When I think of these feudal kings, I am so worried that I can't even sleep.
After he succeeded to the throne, he didn't even sit on the throne.
Then he started slaying the dragon fiercely.
Jianwen group, why are you so anxious?
Because they are afraid.
But in their eyes, the vassal king was as powerful as a tiger.
In Yao Guangxiao's mouth, he is like an ant.
It can be destroyed with the snap of a finger.
If Yao Guangxiao is not a genius, he is a lunatic.
"go on."
Yao Guangxiao said calmly,
"Your Highness, this poor monk divides feudal kings into two types.
The obedient and the disobedient.
We all have ways to deal with them.
Now the vassal king has no land and no soldiers, and the Sai king has no land and no soldiers.
But these don’t count,
If they are allowed to grow bigger and occupy one place for too long,
It is only a matter of time that you have land, soldiers and power.
It's not too late to take action then.
We can extend grace greatly to those who are obedient.
For example, His Highness the King of Qin,
We can allow the bastard son of His Highness King Qin to inherit a small piece of vassal land.
This vassal territory is called the Hou Kingdom, which is one level lower than the various prefectures.
Given the name by the central government, this land cannot yet be hereditary.
When the concubine dies,
This land was immediately taken back to the central government and included in the local state capital. "
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty issued an order of grace.
The greatest conspiracy of all time.
If you follow what Yao Guangxiao said,
This strategy
The most vicious part is that,
Playing with human nature.
Even if King Sai knew that the central government wanted to cut off his vassal, what could he do?
In the name of allocating the vassal land to the concubine of King Sai, the central government
What?
Even if he is a concubine, he is not your child, right?
And the more bastards there are, the more land has to be divided!
So is it possible,
Why did King Sai force his bastard not to carve up the vassal territory?
Totally impossible.
This is the scariest part of the Tweet Order,
From the perspective of a concubine,
Although I am the child of the Ming vassal king,
But he is not a legitimate son, so he has no inheritance rights at all.
No matter how awesome his father is, he has nothing to do with him.
But now,
The court orders you to allocate a piece of land.
Even if this weakens your father's domain in disguise,
Can you tell the difference?
no doubt,
Most are points.
This has nothing to do with filial piety or not.
This is human nature!
And King Sai, who has many heirs like King Qin, only needs to give an order of favor.
Within a few years, he became a polished commander.
Cut down the vassal vassal without spending a single soldier.
King Sai knew that the central government wanted to cut down the vassal.
But he couldn't help it.
The concubine of King Sai knew that dividing the land meant his father would die slowly.
But there was nothing he could do.
This is a conspiracy,
Everyone knew it would turn out like this,
But I have to do it!
To deal with the obedient vassal king, use the grace order.
Although it is a conspiracy,
But Yao Guangxiao's move was extremely sinister!
It's so poisonous that it oozes pus!
Yao Guangxiao has obviously entered the state,
continued,
“For the disobedient Sai King.
We must use the disobedient martial arts in the court to punish him.
If there is any martial arts in the court that His Highness does not like, and it is difficult to take action,
You can hand over the military power to him and bring his family to the capital.
Let him lead the troops to fight against the feudal king.
It's best to lose both sides.
And if this disobedient Wu Xun still has some troops,
Then let him go to Jiangnan to scan around aristocratic families.
It's best to make people angry,
Finally, His Highness cut him off with a click of the knife.
That is to say, he gained the reputation of being a wise king.
And sit back and reap the benefits of being a fisherman.
So good? "
Zhu Xiongying's scalp went numb after hearing this.
If we say that pushing favor is a conspiracy,
Then this Three Kings Presenting the Cauldron is the purest conspiracy!
Conspiracy is used on those who are obedient.
Conspiracy is used for disobedience.
If Jianwen had Yao Guangxiao under his command,
How can he still use tricks like this?
Even if the king of Sai rises, there is no chance!
Not at all!
Too poisonous! Too cruel!
He is like the mastermind holding the thread,
All feudal kings are puppets,
Let him pinch it flat and take it round!
Zhu Xiongying sighed,
"The order of grace plus the offering of the tripod by the three kings,
It's already flawless. "
There is such a sword hanging over the head of the feudal king,
They can only work hard without complaining!
Don’t dare to have any second thoughts!
Yao Guangxiao was a little surprised.
Then he chuckled and said,
"It turns out His Highness also thought of it."
Zhu Xiongying said truthfully,
“I only thought about Tui En, but I didn’t expect that there was also the Three Kings Offering Cauldron.
Your hands are more perfect. "
Yao Guangxiao said respectfully,
"This poor monk is just a small fool, how dare he compete with His Highness?"
Zhu Xiongying stood up,
It was such a fun chat this time!
"Daoyan, you clean up.
Come to Changfu to see me in the afternoon. "
Yao Guangxiao paid homage to Zhu Xiongying,
Bow down at the feet of Zhu Xiongying.
Zhu Xiongying looked at Yao Guangxiao's back,
Suddenly he asked curiously,
"Dao Yan, what do you think of King Yan?"
Zhu Xiongying was really curious about what Yao Guangxiao thought of his fourth uncle.
after all,
When these two people cooperated, Jing Nan was really successful.
so,
Yao Guangxiao’s current views on King Yan:
It will affect Zhu Xiongying's judgment of him.
Yao Guangxiao was a little surprised when he heard this.
Obviously he didn't expect Zhu Xiongying to ask him this,
He murmured in reply,
"King Yan? It's just average."
Zhu Xiongying smiled and said,
Turn around and leave.
Yao Guangxiao was left alone, his head full of questions.
Your Highness, what does this mean?
Where did King Yan get the scraps? !
With the eldest grandson of the Ming Dynasty here, should I still consider King Yan? !
Is this a fool?
There must be a selection of heroes!
Any hesitation is a sign of disrespect for my intelligence!
