Chapter 90: Three Answers

The question is out.

But it was still not read out in public.

At Liu Che's suggestion, Gonggong Wei took the topic to the important ministers first, and asked them to read it first.

After reading it, the faces of several old men changed slightly.

After they finished reading, Gonggong Wei brought the topic to Wei Yan and Li Pinggong, let them watch it, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty advises, you can know this topic, and you must not spread it." ”

When Li Pinggong saw the two eye-catching characters on the cotton silk, he was suddenly shocked and nodded hurriedly.

Such a national event naturally did not dare to spread it.

If it reaches the ears of those princes in advance, it will cause turmoil in the period of the first emperor.

When the time comes, it will be the sin of killing the head and exterminating the clan.

Li Pinggong frowned slightly.

This question is very difficult for him.

Something that has not been solved by several generations of imperial courts, no matter how powerful he is, it is impossible for him to come up with a solution at once.

But it doesn't matter.

Although he can't come up with a perfect answer, he can at least use his knowledge and experience to name a few slightly feasible solutions.

For example, he quietly took back the financial power of each vassal state and sent ministers to occupy important positions.

For another example, you can learn from the vertical and horizontal battles of the Warring States Period, making friends from afar and attacking closely, first solving the nearby vassal states, pacifying the distant vassal states, and then slowly plotting them.

For example, it is possible to summon the kings of various vassal states into the capital under house arrest through a certain event.

Li Pinggong's brain was spinning rapidly, and he quickly thought of these methods.

Although these methods are radical and risky, they are likely to succeed if implemented well.

Thinking of this, Li Pinggong immediately walked to the bookcase that had been prepared long ago, picked up the pen, and began to write hard.

"This second question, give you time to burn two incense sticks."

Liu Che knew in his heart that this question was very difficult, and even if these two young people could make it, they would definitely have some useless answers.

He had already decided that this second question was a draw in his heart, so he didn't care anymore, picked up "Journey to the West" on the table, and continued to read it.

But at this time, Wei Yan had already written the answer.

But he didn't present it right away.

Because he felt that if these answers were circulated, he was afraid that he would die a very miserable death.

He sat there, playing with the brush in his hand, and looked at the young man who was still struggling to write, waiting for the other party to come out first.

He was looking at others, but on the stage, the eldest princess Liu Yi was looking at him.

Finished writing?

Or, it wasn't written at all?

Liu Yi looked at his frowning and hesitant appearance, thinking about the two sentences in the pavilion that night, "Life is a hero, death is also a ghost", and today's two Mingzhi poems, his heart rippled slightly.

Not much.

After Li Pinggong finished writing, he immediately picked up the answer and submitted it.

Seeing this, everyone in the Li family had a smile on their faces.

Mrs. Li glanced at Wei Yan even more fiercely, her face full of pride.

Gonggong Wei presented the answer to Liu Che.

Liu Che put down the book in his hand, took the cotton silk, read it carefully, and said with a smile: "Pinggong's answers, although they are difficult to implement, they also show extraordinary wisdom and strategy, which is still very good." ”

Hearing His Majesty's praise like this, Li Pinggong's heart suddenly relaxed.

In this second game, there seems to be no suspense.

Liu Che's gaze looked at Wei Yan.

Wei Yan also looked at him, and when he saw his gaze, he had to get up, pick up the answer, walked over, and said boldly: "Your Majesty, this answer, the grass people want to present it to you in person." ”

He didn't dare let anyone else see it.

As soon as these words came out, Father-in-law Wei, who was about to come over to pick up the cotton silk, immediately stopped.

The others were stunned.

Liu Che was slightly stunned, then smiled and said, "Quasi, you can present it yourself." I want to see what your answer is, and you have to be so cautious. ”

The Li family all showed disdain and pretended to be ghosts.

When Wei Yan held the cotton silk in both hands and bowed down, the eldest princess on the stage stared at him curiously, and her heart suddenly became a little nervous.

Looking at the young man's expression and behavior, at this moment, she actually had an illusion that even she couldn't believe it.

Will he win?

Liu Che took the cotton silk, looked at it with a smile, and said secretly in his heart: No matter how naΓ―ve this young man's answer is, in this second game, I will sentence them to a draw.

Thinking like this, when he saw the first line of words, he was stunned for a moment, the smile on his face gradually disappeared, his brows furrowed, and his expression suddenly became solemn.

The answer in the first line is quite similar to Li Pinggong's answer, which is based on the vertical and horizontal shackles of the Warring States Period.

However, Li Pinggong's method was to directly follow the method of the Warring States period at that time, and attack from afar and closely.

And this young man's method is to attack the strongest princes first, and by the way to appease the other weaker princes.

Compared with the two methods, the second method is naturally better.

Wei Yan gave a total of three answers.

When Liu Che finished reading the second answer, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he couldn't help but raise his head and glance at the young man in front of him, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

This second answer is still to deal with the most powerful princes first.

However, the method is different from the first method, which is to deliberately promise the opponent a wider land first, and take the opportunity to move the opponent to a place that is easy to attack and difficult to defend, so that he can start over.

In this way, it is naturally much easier to deal with.

Liu Che really didn't expect that this young man was not only brilliant in writing, but also in his strategy.

These two answers are naturally much higher than Li Pinggong's answers.

He immediately looked eagerly at the bottom row.

The third answer is simple, with only three words: Tui En Ling.

Liu Che was puzzled: "Tui En Ling? What is the Grace Order? ”

Wei Yan knew that this era was different from the era he was familiar with.

The Tui En Order of that era first appeared in the period of Emperor Wen, and it was proposed by Jia Yi, and the Tui En Order of this era has never appeared, so he will write this answer at the end.

But this answer is so terrible that it is called the most powerful conspiracy in history, and there is no one.

All the princes and kings and the eldest sons hated it and hated it, but they watched it and could not do anything about it.

Liu Bei during the Three Kingdoms period suffered greatly and changed from a royal family to a commoner.

So after Wei Yan wrote this answer, he was cautious, for fear that others would see it.

If he accidentally leaks out, I am afraid that the lords of various vassal states and the eldest son of the prince will hate him to the core.

Liu Che's eyes looked at him, puzzled: "How to explain this third answer?" ”

There are only three words, Liu Che can't understand it, but from the first two answers, it can be guessed that this last answer must be extraordinary.

Wei Yan said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, can you let the others retreat?" ”

Liu Che's expression moved, knowing that this matter was extraordinary, and hurriedly said to the following: "Except for Ayi and a few Aiqing, all of them retreat." ”

Li Pinggong was stunned for a moment, and immediately retreated, and suddenly felt a little apprehensive in his heart.

Gonggong Wei and other eunuchs and palace maids also bowed down and retreated.

The Li family and Liu Chan also all retreated.

Mrs. Li said coquettishly: "Your Majesty, is there anything that the concubine can't listen to." ”

"Stand down!"

Liu Che looked serious and shouted again.

Mrs. Li's face changed, she didn't dare to linger any longer, and hurriedly retreated.

Soon, there were only a few ministers left in the field, such as Liu Yibingji.

Liu Che looked at Wei Yan and said, "Although Wei Qing said that they are all his own people here, they have already known about the cutting of the domain, so don't worry." ”

At this moment, no one noticed that his title for Wei Yan had turned out to be Wei Qing.

Wei Yan suddenly froze there, his heart full of shock.

Because at this time, he dared to raise his head and scan the surroundings, so he suddenly saw the graceful and luxurious woman in the red dress sitting next to the emperor.

The woman's stunning appearance and powerful momentum that is not angry and self-imposing, he will naturally not forget.

The woman I saw in the Pony Mansion that night was her!

She...... She is actually the "Ayi" in His Majesty's mouth?

"Wei Yan! Your Majesty is asking you! ”

When the eldest princess saw him looking at her blankly, she immediately said coldly.

Wei Yan woke up suddenly, and hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty, the meaning of this edict is to make the princes push their personal favors and divide their respective sons into princes, and divide each vassal state into multiple vassal states directly under the central power. ”

"In the past, the countries under the jurisdiction of the princes were inherited only by their eldest sons, but now Your Majesty can change it to the other sons can inherit together, so that the territory of the various princely states will become smaller and smaller. And the princes who have shared the territory will be grateful to His Majesty. ”

"If the lord of any vassal state is unwilling, Your Majesty does not have to go out, their son will naturally let them understand what the emperor's grace is and unstoppable."

Liu Che was stunned.

The eldest princess was stunned.

Those ministers, too, stayed!

So ruthless!

It's poisonous!

So insidious!!

But the scary thing is that this is not a conspiracy, and it does not need to be carried out secretly, but it is an open and honest conspiracy!

And there's nothing to worry about!

Unprecedented!

Even if those princes saw it clearly and clearly, they had to break their teeth and swallow it in their stomachs, and they ate coptis chinensis dumbly, and they couldn't say what they were suffering.

They couldn't resist at all.

Because this decree will benefit their other sons, and they want to resist it by force? Then ask your sons if they do it first?

If you kill each other before you start the army, and you fight in the same room, is it possible to win?

Maybe some princes will say, then I will only give birth to one or two sons?

I'm sorry, but the death rate of children born in this era is very high, you only give birth to one or two, if you die, your feudal country will be completely gone.

Therefore, as soon as this decree came out, those princes could absolutely only grit their teeth and watch, but they could not do anything.

After Wei Yan finished speaking, there was a dead silence in the field.

Liu Che stared at the three big characters on the cotton silk, his drooping eyelids twitched slightly, and his hands trembled with excitement.

This is a major event that has plagued the royal family for several generations, and it has been solved like this?
