Longzhou

The old emperor sat in his seat with a thoughtful expression.

He was the only one who could read the reports of spies everywhere, and he knew more about the Empire than anyone else around him.

The foundation left by the first emperor is too thick.

But it also left behind a lot of messes that needed to be raised by the current emperor.

At present, the biggest problem of the empire is the problem of the descendants of those meritorious nobles, and these people have a lot of unhappiness with the Jiang family in various places.

The old emperor felt very unhappy.

At the beginning, his father divided many princes to go to the frontiers of the empire to expand their territories, but then these people gradually came back.

Are those wild places on the frontier where they drink blood for people to live?

Although some people were left overseas more or less forever, the descendants of those people came back to enjoy the blessings.

is like some generals who follow the world, that is, the real whole family has died outside.

The expansion of the empire had reached its limit, and the old emperor's grasp of the frontier was gradually declining, mainly because of the transportation problem, and it took a month for the train to bring back the letters from the farthest places.

Compared with these minor problems, the old emperor was still more troubled by the problems of officials and nobles in various places.

He also has no people to talk to, and the people around him are either untrustworthy or simply have no talent.

After thinking for a while, the old emperor said to the people around him, "Bring the essay." ”

The eunuch next to him knew what the emperor was talking about, and quickly bowed down and retreated.

It didn't take long for a brand new folder to be presented.

The exterior of this folder is beautifully packed in cardboard, slightly larger in size and three or four centimeters thick.

The old emperor put on reading glasses, his knowledge level increased a little, his eyesight increased by fifty percent, and his majesty decreased a little.

Flipping through the book cover, there is only one sentence on the first page inside.

[This is my essay for future generations, all transcribers must be copied word by word, and must not be tampered with and modified by personal subjectivity, violators will be killed! 】

The old emperor flipped through it at will, and the words in it were not dense, usually a large paragraph of different words, and there was no continuity between them.

These are all left by his father when he writes whatever he thinks, and there are different concepts in various periods, as well as some things that remind him to pay attention to.

The handwriting is clear, and the ink is obvious, these are all new editions that the scribes have rewritten not long ago, otherwise they would be blurred due to time, like a decree.

The old emperor flipped through it casually, and ignored some essays that he was not interested in.

I watched it once when I was young, and a lot of the content looked familiar, but when I watched a lot of the content again, I had a refreshing feeling.

The old emperor remembered that many years ago, his father had told him about the heir.

It's been a long time, and the old emperor's memory is not particularly good, but he remembers his father's not very reluctant expression at that time, and he remembers it deeply.

Soon the old emperor found Emperor Yanwu's essay on this aspect.

[Today, I saw from my subordinates' report that a certain grandson of mine was bullying people outside, I actually have no impression of this person at all, but he is indeed the Jiang family, and he can be regarded as a second generation. 】

I've seen a lot of this kind of thing, including my wife, women, and sons, who have done bullying things, and also those women and witches and people who have messy relationships, and they have all benefited greatly from me.

These are not the main points, my understanding of these things, I think this is not a problem of the second generation or ordinary people.

Human beings are inherently a kind of contradictory aggregates, with the selfishness of biological survival and the social dedication to the reproduction of the race.

The emergence of the second generation and the powerful is a complex and systematic phenomenon.

Throughout the ages and my own understanding, there are powerful people in every dynasty and region who have been passed down from generation to generation, and naturally there will be various second generations.

Even today, it is the same, many second generations have also changed from commoners, and have been passed down for five, six, seven or eight generations, which fully shows that the second generation itself is a concept of change.

Most people are not disgusted by the rights and resources that these people inherited from their parents, and they are not opposed to this way of inheritance, and most people support it.

The main thing that opposes it is not to treat people as human beings.

My descendants are especially serious in this regard, perhaps because they are princes themselves, they have a natural sense of superiority, and killing people is not a big deal for them.

In my opinion, it's really not a big deal, compared to killing people, these princes often do things that have no bottom line, so much so that I wonder if these people are human beings or animals.

I've been thinking about how to find a good system to solve these problems.

However, whether it is the Mohists who love both love and non-attack, the [rituals] who advocate the search for society, the Cheng Zhu Lixue who reins in the expansion of selfish desires, and the psychology of Mencius, it turns out that they cannot succeed.

So far, I can't find a good system that can solve the problem of not treating people as human beings.

This is probably a characteristic of human civilization itself, and it is also a social phenomenon that is different from that of animals.

I'm still a little pessimistic about this, maybe before the destruction of human civilization, I still can't jump out of this shackle.

As for the question of future generations, I have already assembled several ministers to take the helm of the future of this empire, and there are all kinds of problems in this country, and I intend to use the method of Tuen to get rid of some moths.

Speaking of which, I'm in my sixties, and I don't spend much time with women anymore, and I'm not sure how long I'll live, but I hope I can find an heir from among my children before I die.

[Written in the autumn of the 66th year of the new calendar]

The old emperor looked at this essay written by his father, this is an essay written by thirty years ago.

His father was planning to train a successor!

"Humph!" The old emperor snorted coldly, the helmsman left by his father thirty years ago is now all ashes!

And that last sentence.

[I hope that before I die, I can find an heir from the children]

This sentence has been tampered with!

The person who tampered with it is naturally the old emperor!

The original sentence is: I hope that before I die, I can find an heir from this big country, and the Jiang family should not inherit this country.

Emperor Yanwu formulated various measures to prevent some things from happening, but the people he cultivated just couldn't survive the old emperor......

In the essays of Emperor Yanwu in his later years, it is simply hysterical anger at the dog prince who is a representative of the diehards.

He insulted this son for being unwise, short-sighted, and gloomy and short-tempered, and on several occasions passed the throne to others and did not give it to him.

With this prince who was elected by a large number of royalists, some of Emperor Yanwu's arrangements could not continue at all!

But although the old emperor couldn't do anything to please others, he was the kind of person who didn't make big mistakes, and he survived Emperor Yanwu to death.

The old emperor's process of getting this emperor position is simply too right!

Justified by the name, all return!

With such a prince who has worked hard for decades and managed his power for decades, as well as the royalists of clans and meritorious nobles all over the country, which minister dares to be the successor?

There is also the fact that he can't find an heir at all, and he can't find someone who meets his concepts and expectations, otherwise Emperor Yanwu really doesn't mind killing a group of people in his old age to solve the problem.

So the old emperor really has a very complicated mood for his father.

On the one hand, since I was a child, I felt that this father was very powerful and admired him.

But the older you get, the more you hate him.

After all, it's still his father, according to Wang Lanling's words, there is only one father.

The old emperor looked at his father's essay back then, and was in a very bad mood, but he also admitted that his father was still a very powerful person.

"Push Grace Order ......"

The old emperor had an idea.

Of course, he will not push the titles and rights of the Jiang family, but he will push those who are officials, as well as the grace of local forces!

Except for the Jiang family, after the death of their father, the rest of the people have to divide their families, and they all have to divide the family property equally, and the title is also divided equally according to the money!

By the way, the state charges a handling fee.

"Let's just say it's my father's last wish!" The old emperor smiled smugly.

What did his father say before he died, and it wasn't up to him to decide?

No matter how powerful a person is, if he dies, he is dead, and the world is the world of the living. (Recommended reading: Reading Files 2013)
