After listening to what Sun Xiangchong said to himself, he immediately nodded: "Yes, brothers work together to break gold." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Deco was satisfied. He knew that as long as he gave Bi Lai time, this child would know the value of Sun Xiang. will understand what you are doing.

He handed Sun Xiang a document and said to Sun Xiang, "Take a look." Then, he took the wine and drank it slowly.

This was the plan to abolish the fiefdom based on Sun Xiang's suggestion. The plan was drawn up in detail, not only enumerating all possible scenarios, but also designing the form of government after the fiefdom was revoked.

After reading this plan, Sun Xiang knew how large the territory actually controlled by the Detulai Empire.

When he first arrived in the capital of the empire, he knew that there were fifty states in the Sun family's library pavilion, and later Astor City was withdrawn from the city and became a state, and the empire had fifty-one states. Later, he was made a marquis, and the state of Astor was given to him. The empire was restored to fifty states.

Now he knew that in addition to these fifty states, the empire also had fifteen fiefdoms, including the state of Aster.

Fifteen fiefdoms did not border, some were within the empire, some were close to the borders of the empire. If you make a special mark on the map of the Empire of Tetula, it is like fifteen plasters. The area of each fiefdom is also different, and Astor is not the smallest, it can only be regarded as middle and lower. The smallest is the size of the city of Aster, and the largest is ten times the size of the state of Aster.

Of these fifteen fiefdoms, there are five of the four super families. Originally, it was a fief for the family, but later Sun Xiang had Astor State, and it became five. From this point, it can be seen that Emperor Deke favored Sun Xiang.

The other ten fiefs were canonized by successive emperors after the founding of the Detulai Empire. Eight of them belonged to relatives of the royal family, that is to say, eight pieces were distributed by the emperors of previous dynasties to their wives. The other two were awarded to those who had made significant contributions to the empire, as in Sun Xiang's state of Aster.

Eight of the ten fiefdoms were concentrated in the southern and western parts of the empire, and two were in the northern part of the empire.

Sun Xiang finished reading the plan, picked up the map and looked at it again. Subsequently, the largest fief on the border of the Zhidao Department asked: "Whose fief is this, and why is it so big?" ”

Prince Bilai took the initiative to explain: "It is the fief of the Huang family. Their ancestors had saved the life of the then Emperor Zu, so they were knighted. Originally, the area was not large, but because they were located in the border area, they gradually expanded outward and became the current area. After a pause, Billay continued: "There is no one in the Huang clan who is an official in the imperial court now, but they can still pay taxes according to the regulations, of course, it is impossible to pay the full amount. In addition to paying taxes, they basically no longer bear other obligations, and every year, they only come to the capital to congratulate on major festivals, and never enter Beijing at other times. ”

Sun Xiang heard the meaning of Bi Lai's words, and also understood that the Huang family did not have a sage, otherwise, they would have established themselves as kings long ago.

He asked, "Is the information accurate that the document mentions that they have two quasi-saints?" ”

Bi Lai couldn't be sure, so he could only explain: "The news came from the intelligence department, and the same is true for the information provided by the Heavenly Alliance. ”

Sun Xiang pointed to the other four fiefdoms in the border area and asked, "Why did you canonize the border area to them in the first place?" ”

This time it was Emperor Deke who replied: "The canonization is determined according to the situation at that time, and there is no law." It's like your fiefdom is also on the border. ”

Sun Xiang understood that those who could be canonized were reassured by the royal family at that time, so it was the same wherever they were sealed.

He looked up from the map and said seriously, "The plan is perfect. For those who oppose the fiefdom lords, directly carrying out the decapitation operation is like cutting through the chaos quickly, not only to reduce the loss, but also to gain time. Gathering those who agree to the fiefdom lords in the capital will prevent them from making trouble. Calling back the young nobles who were loyal to the empire who were starting businesses below would immediately fill the gap in management and give them a greater workout. It's all a plugging method. ”

Sun Xiang paused and continued: "If there is a blockage, there must be a sparse. In this way, they can slowly smooth their qi. The parliamentary system that I proposed in the plan was my suggestion, but you only designed it as an empty shelf, which is not a negligent one. Over time, they will find out about the problem, and I fear a backlash. ”

Sun Xiang knew that the royal family was worried that the excessive power of the parliament would hinder the royal family. He knew that it would be too difficult for the continent to accept the democratic consciousness all at once, and it was not realistic for the time being. So, he changed his mind and suggested: "Don't set up this council, otherwise it will be another hidden danger." Let them all enter the court as officials after entering Beijing. Like the classification of warriors, the officials of the court are also divided into eight ranks. There are four in one product, and even the four people in the four major families now, the division of labor does not need to change. There are eight for the second product, and two for each product, and the specific division of labor is given to them within the scope of the first product. There are sixteen of the three products, and two are assigned to each second product, and the specific division of labor is refined within the specific division of labor of the second product. And so on until the eighth grade. ”

Speaking of this, Sun Xiang smiled: "The more people there are, the more ideas, the more detailed the division of labor, the fewer loopholes, which is beneficial to us." Anyway, the decision is in our hands, so let them make a fool of themselves. For those who make good suggestions, we will reward them, and those who have room for improvement will be promoted; For selfish advice, we will punish him and demote him. ”

Then, he pointed to Prince Billay and continued to laugh: "When His Royal Highness the prince ascends the throne, the throne will be secured." In the name of streamlining administration and delegating power, the political system will be restored to its current model. Hehe, I estimate that by that time, after the big waves and sand, the truth and the fake will naturally be distinguished, and those lords with different intentions will also lose their chance. ”

"Insidious!" Deco said unceremoniously. "It's just a good idea. It's much simpler than setting up a parliament. ”

Prince Bilai also nodded, agreeing with Sun Xiang's opinion.

Sun Xiang continued: "After the fiefdom is canceled, the defense tasks there will return to the imperial army, and the armies of those fiefdom lords will be incorporated and replaced, which is also a very good plan. However, beware of the border areas, which are mostly mountainous and do not form the situation of Sin City. Therefore, I propose the establishment of a mobile anti-bandit squad to prevent problems before they occur. ”

Emperor Deke nodded: "Okay, this is a good suggestion. In the future, you will be the commander-in-chief of the bandits, and you will be in charge of the actions of the bandit suppression mobile team. You have chosen the personnel yourself. ”

Bi Lai knew that his father was giving him a chance to exercise, so he immediately nodded in agreement.

Subsequently, the three of them studied in detail the problems that might arise in the removal of the seal.

In fact, this plan was originally formulated by the Nash Sage, and it was already very comprehensive. The Sages of the Etullai Empire have all been mobilized, and the beheading operation is mainly carried out by those Sages.

A few days later, Emperor Deco announced the decision to withdraw the seal at the imperial court, causing an immediate uproar.

The ministers dissuaded one after another, and only the people of the four super families supported the emperor's decision. With the support of the four super families, the decision to withdraw the seal was forcibly passed by the imperial court.

Subsequently, the Detulai Empire announced the decision to revoke the feud, requiring all the lords whose fiefs had been revoked to bring their families to Beijing within two months, and arranged for them to have positions in the imperial court.

At the same time, Emperor Deco reformed the imperial structure and reappointed officials. The rank of officials ranges from the first rank to the eighth rank, and the first rank is set up as four, namely the prime minister, the finance minister, and two generals, which are respectively served by the patriarchs of the four super families. Other officials are divided into eight grades according to their ability and contribution, and they are managed by four people and one rank. And those lords who have been revoked are all named second-rank to fourth-rank officials according to the size of their fiefs.

After the decision to withdraw the feud was announced, the Empire's troops began to move, and three headquarters were formed, Southern, Western, and Northern, threatening the ten fiefdoms in those three regions.

The four great families were the first to stand up and announce their unconditional support for the empire's decision to give up their fiefdoms.

Sun Xiang also announced that he would give up his fiefdom and reintegrate Astor State into the administrative sequence of the empire. The family will enter Beijing within a month, and even the mansion has been chosen, which is the Sixian Villa where Siweng originally lived. Only the top brass of the empire knew that Sun Xiang's so-called return to Beijing was just a gimmick. Without Sun Xiang, Astor City can't even pass the White Elephant level.

The attitude of the four major families has long been expected by those fiefdom lords, and they are helpless and polarized, and those who are weak and have fiefs within the empire reluctantly compromise, announcing their approval of the empire's decision, and promising to capitalize within the specified time.

Only five fiefdom lords located on the border and one fiefdom lord in the territory of the empire have not yet taken a stand.

The ancestor of the fiefdom lord in the empire was the uncle of the Nash siblings, and the emperor canonized their realm because of the sanctification of the Nash siblings. They hope that the Nash siblings will stand up and protect their interests.

While some people familiar with the situation were watching, less than ten days later, the fiefdom lord also announced that he supported the empire's decision and would enter the capital within the specified time.

At this point, half a month has passed, and the five fiefdom lords located in the border area still have not expressed their position.

These five fiefs were the largest of the fifteen fiefs, and the Huang family's fief was the largest, ten times the size of Astor and equivalent to one-third of the eastern part of the empire.

In addition to the fiefdom of the Huang family, there are two other fiefs on the southern border of the empire, which are also very large.

One of the remaining two fiefdoms was on the western border of the empire. One piece in the north of the empire.
