Chapter 865: Li Yan Has Seven Beginnings (Seven) (Ask for Subscription!) )

"The minister dared to ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince again, did His Highness think of the danger of the distribution order to His Highness?"

When Yu Yunwen said this, he was also worried - you must know that Li Yan is the first emperor of the ages, the emperor with the highest achievements in the past, and he is obviously questioning Li Yan's decision!

The key is that Li Yan is really good to Li Cun - Li Yan has nearly a thousand sons, but he single-handedly pushes Li Cun to the throne, in order to smoothly pass the throne to Li Cun, Li Yan really spares no effort to clear all obstacles for Li Cun before he ascends the throne.

Therefore, as long as Li Cun has the slightest conscience, he can't let others slander Li Yan.

But from Yu Yunwen's point of view, he must say this.

After all, rebellion is a high-risk industry, as a prince with a respected status, there is no need to take risks, another reason is that since the Qin and Han dynasties were completely abolished, it is difficult for the prince to obtain real power, and his identity is too sensitive, and it is difficult to obtain the strength of rebellion.

That is to say, from the Qin Dynasty to the Song Dynasty, especially the Song Dynasty, the power of the prince was very restricted, and many dynasties even preferred to raise the prince as a pig rather than let them touch the authority.

Although this is a bit unfair to these princes, I have to say that the effect is actually quite good.

On the contrary, some dynasties, like the Tang Dynasty, had relatively small restrictions on the prince, and as a result, not counting Li Shimin's Xuanwumen Rebellion, there were also Shenlong Coup, Jinglong Coup, and Ma Wei Mutiny.

Of course, the reason why there were many princes rebelling in the Tang Dynasty was also related to Li Shimin - in the early Tang Dynasty, the eldest brother and crown prince Li Jiancheng knew that Li Shimin was unwilling to be a minister, and Li Shimin also thought that he had laid the foundation for the founding of the Tang Dynasty, so he and Li Jiancheng and the fourth brother Li Yuanji, the king of Qi, were increasingly suspicious, and the ministers of the two factions were inclined to each other. And they were removed from the clan, Li Yuan was forced to give up military and political power to Li Shimin, and Li Shimin was made the crown prince three days later, since then, the descendants of the Li royal family always think that through their own efforts, they can be like Li Shimin, and have the opportunity to own the world, and do not hesitate to take risks.

When he arrived in the Dazhong Dynasty, Li Yan not only followed the old path of the Tang Dynasty, but was even more cautious - Li Yan actually threw more than 200 princes to all corners of Dazhong, and, looking at this posture, Li Yan may throw nearly a thousand or more princes to all corners of Dazhong in the future, and then slowly promote them!

In case of!

A few of these thousands of princes, no, even if it is only an extremely good prince, then Li Cun's position should be unstable.

Be.

Li Cun is extremely good and is not afraid of such things.

But Yu Yunwen, who has extraordinary ability, can see things that others can't see, that is, the two hidden dangers that exist in Li Cun.

The first is Li Cun's physical problem, which is easy to awaken the ambition of the kings to compete for the throne - imagine that if one day, Li Cun accidentally falls ill, at that time, someone will inevitably make a fuss about Li Cun's physical condition, you know, the emperor of a country must not be a sick seedling, because this is too unstable, so, at that time, the ambitious prince may jump up and compete for the position of Li Cun's crown prince.

In addition to this hidden danger, Li Cun actually has a huge hidden danger, that is, Li Cun has no children - Li Cun is really not a good woman, and his health is not very good, so that Li Cun has only one daughter so far.

Childlessness is a very fatal injury for the crown prince, especially when Li Yan has many children and grandchildren - take a step back, even if Li Cun is made emperor now, who will be the crown prince? Which brother did Li Cun inherit from, or which brother will he appoint in the future?

Of course, Li Cun is still young after all, only twenty-six years old, and he still has a chance to have a son.

But this kind of thing has always been, not afraid of 10,000, just in case.

Therefore, Li Cun's imperial road is full of hidden dangers, so Yu Yunwen is worried!

Moreover, Yu Yunwen is not only worried about Li Cun, he is even more worried about the unprecedentedly powerful empire of Dazhong - Yu Yunwen is very afraid that because Li Yan will send all the princes down, this great empire that was built with great difficulty will cause turmoil!

Actually-

Yu Yunwen's worries are not unreasonable.

Take the beginning of the Ming Dynasty as an example.

Zhu Yuanzhang implemented a feudal system, sent many princes to the frontier, and allowed them to have a certain size of army.

Zhu Yuanzhang's original intention was to guard the security of the country and avoid a peasant uprising.

However, the development of things exceeded Zhu Yuanzhang's expectations - things finally developed to the worst side.

The sudden death of the crown prince Zhu Biao awakened the ambition of the kings to compete for the throne.

And Zhu Yuanzhang still insisted on making Zhu Biao's son Zhu Yunwen the crown prince.

The princes are all resentful of this.

Among them, Zhu Di, the king of Yan, was the most scheming, and he secretly cultivated an army in an attempt to divide one party's forces.

When the time was ripe, Zhu Di overthrew the regime of Emperor Jianwen on the grounds of "Qing Jun's side", and successfully staged a tragedy that caused Xiao Wall to seize the throne.

If we dig deeper into the reasons for its success, we will find that the "sub-sealing system" has contributed a lot.

For the sake of Li Cun, for the sake of Dazhong, an unprecedentedly powerful empire, Yu Yunwen stood up and reminded Li Cun without hesitation.

Li Cun stared at Yu Yunwen for a while, and then asked without answering, "Are you finished?" ”

Yu Yunwen was a little puzzled, but still said, "The minister finished speaking." ”

Li Cun waved his hand and said, "When you're done, let's go down." ”

Yu Yunwen was stunned for a moment, and then wanted to say something more.

But Li Cun didn't even look at Yu Yunwen anymore, and then lowered his head and continued to review the folds.

Seeing this, Yu Yunwen stood in place for a while, and then reluctantly left Li Cun's study.

As soon as he came out, Yu Yunwen saw Chen Junqing standing at the door, as if waiting for him.

Yu Yunwen came to Chen Junqing, and then asked bluntly: "Brother Ying Qiu (Chen Junqing's words) is waiting for me?" ”

Chen Junqing nodded and said, "Brother Binfu (Yu Yunwen's words), you did something wrong today. ”

Yu Yunwen frowned, and then asked, "I haven't asked Brother Ying yet, what is wrong with me today?" ”

Chen Junqing motioned for Yu Yunwen and the two of them to leave first, and said: "I Guan Binfu brother, you have been in a state of mind for the past few days, and when you heard the distribution order, you hurriedly came to see Your Highness, so I guessed that you must have come to remind Your Highness, and then hurried to chase you, but unfortunately you were still a step too late, so you said this." ”

Yu Yunwen took a deep breath, and then said, "The eldest husband is not afraid of life and death. ”

Chen Junqing said bluntly: "Do you think I came to chase you because I was worried about your life and death?" ”

When Yu Yunwen heard this, he was stunned at first, then smiled, and said, "It turns out that I was self-inflicted." ”

Chen Junqing said: "In terms of national affairs, what is this personal relationship between you and me. ”

Yu Yunwen smiled and said, "Yes, you and I are not people who abolish the public for personal gain, so ...... What does it mean to ask my brother to come here? ”

After walking for a while, Chen Junqing said: "I have also thought of the problem you thought of, and I have also thought about making a statement to Your Majesty, for the sake of the future stability of Dazhong, it should be stipulated that the princes shall not leave Beijing without an edict, so that the princes except the prince will be rich and stable for a lifetime." ”

As if he had finally met a confidant, Yu Yunwen hurriedly said: "Brother Ying Qiu thought of going with me!" It's just that...... Why do you want to say that I did something wrong? ”

Chen Junqing said: "Later, I carefully read the classics of the rebellion of the princes of the previous dynasties, and I had some insights. ”

Yu Yunwen didn't squeak, he was waiting for Chen Junqing's later text.

Chen Junqing continued: "The scourge of witchcraft, in the later years of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Gongsun Jingsheng, the son of Prime Minister Gongsun He, was accused of cursing Emperor Wu of Han with witchcraft, and committed adultery with Princess Yangshi, resulting in Gongsun He's father and son being imprisoned and dying, Princess Zhuyi and Princess Yangshi, Wei Qing's eldest son Changping Hou Wei was implicated and died, and then, Emperor Wu of Han ordered Jiang Chong to investigate the matter.

Liu Shao and his younger brother Liu Jun because they did a lot of unsightly things, in order to prevent leakage, they asked their sister to raise the witch Yan Daoyu in the palace for help, Yan Daoyu used witchcraft to help the two, after the matter was known by Emperor Song Wen, so they ordered the two to send Yan Daoyu away, but they didn't listen to Emperor Song Wen at all, Emperor Song Wen after learning that Yan Daoyu was still active in the East Palace, he was furious and decided to abolish the prince and give Liu Jun to death, because of Pan Shufei's leak, under the instigation of Liu Jun, Liu Shao led his troops to break into the palace at night, killed his father and killed the king, and established himself as the emperor.

Although Tuoba Shao is the prince, but he is vicious and cruel, insidious and rebellious, does not abide by the teachings, Tuoba Shao's mother Mrs. He was imprisoned in the palace by Emperor Daowu for making a mistake, and intended to kill her, Mrs. He secretly sent someone to tell the news to her son, Tuoba Shao summoned several warriors and eunuchs that night to contact and plan to jump over the wall into the palace and kill Emperor Daowu Tuoba Jue.

In the later period of Wu Zetian's reign, due to limited energy and no time to deal with political affairs, Zhang Yizhi and Zhang Zongchang, who were deeply favored by him, began to meddle in political affairs, which was resisted by most courtiers.

Li Chongjun is the eldest son of Tang Zhongzong Li Xian, although he was made the crown prince, but the position is extremely unstable, the Wu group led by Wu Sansi in the middle of the dynasty is eyeing the tiger, and the harem has Empress Wei and Princess Anle are ambitious, and the stressed Li Chongjuncai united with the left Jinwu general Li Qianli, the left Yulin general Li Duozuo, the right Yulin general Li Sichong, and Li Chengqing, Dugu Yizhi, Shazha Zhongyi and others, led more than 300 people at the left and right Yulin army level to launch a mutiny.

Ma Wei's mutiny is not much to say, if it weren't for the old age and mediocrity of Emperor Tang Ming, and the outbreak of the Anshi Rebellion, the crown prince Li Heng would not have been able to raise troops and stand on his own.

As for the Fujian kings of the Five Dynasties period, Jipeng, Zhu Liang, and Zhu Youqi, which one was not a princely rebellion that broke out because of the emperor's immorality or the prince's immorality.

As for the rebellion of Li Ning Lingge in Western Xia, it was caused by Li Yuanhao's unreasonableness, Li Ning Lingge married the daughter of Wujie Mountain and did not move the family as the crown princess, but Li Yuanhao took a fancy to his daughter-in-law, and directly snatched it away, and set it up as a concubine, called the "new queen", Li Ningling brother married Wuzang again, and was taken by Li Yuanhao again, and he wanted to make him the queen and abolish the original Yeli Queen, and later gave birth to Li Liangzuo, Li Yuanhao wanted to change Li Liangzuo as the prince and depose Li Ninglingge, which caused Li Ningling's mother and son to be dissatisfied, and the conflict between father and son escalated. Under the bewitchment of the Minister of State who did not hide the slander, Li Ning made his brother take a risk. ”

After a pause, Chen Junqing concluded: "After reading these examples, I conclude that the prince's rebellion is mostly due to the emperor's immorality or the prince's immorality, rather than deliberate, and any policy is not perfect, and there are always some people who are uneasy about their duties, or too self-motivated, so this kind of thing can only be determined according to the political situation, in addition, there are some objective realities that we must admit, first of all, there is also a father-son relationship between His Majesty and other princes, and it is impossible for His Majesty not to consider the future of other princes. The second is that His Majesty's princes are not only eight or nine or eighty or ninety, but eight or nine hundred, and there may be one or two thousand in the future, the key is that among these princes, there is indeed no shortage of talents, so in this case, His Majesty will never keep them all in captivity in Beijing. ”

Yu Yunwen said a little unwillingly: "There is no possibility at all? ”

Chen Junqing didn't answer, but said: "How big is Yanjing City, how can it fit so many princes?" ”

Yu Yunwen could only slander in his heart: "Your Majesty is too capable of giving birth!" ”

Chen Junqing said again: "The following words are just from my mouth and into your ears, and they are not enough for outsiders. ”

Yu Yunwen simply swore: "Today's words of you and me, if I speak to a third person, teach me to die on the street, leaving a stench for 10,000 years." ”

Chen Junqing said noncommittally: "There are two objective facts, I think you must also know, that is, His Royal Highness the Prince's health is not very good and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has no heirs." ”

Yu Yunwen said in a deep voice: "It is precisely because of these two things that I went to remind His Highness. ”

Chen Junqing said leisurely: "If I guess correctly, you go and tell Your Highness, Your Highness shouldn't have answered your words, right?" Do you understand why? ”

Yu Yunwen said truthfully: "Some people have figured it out, but more of them are still puzzled. ”

Chen Junqing glanced at Yu Yunwen, and then said, "Do you think Your Highness can fight Your Majesty?" If His Majesty rebels, is there any chance of success? ”

Yu Yunwen didn't even think about it, he shook his head and said: "Although His Highness is talented and outstanding in all aspects, he can't fight His Majesty no matter what, Your Majesty's merits and prestige are too high, and there is no big mistake, no one will support His Highness's rebellion, so if His Highness rebels, it is tantamount to self-destruction." ”

After hearing this, Chen Junqing said leisurely: "Then why do you still want to tell Your Highness about this, even if Your Highness knows all this, what can you do?" ”

Yu Yunwen stood on the spot in an instant!

He figured it out!

Only under one circumstance can Li Cun smoothly inherit Li Yan's throne, that is, Li Cun completely obeys Li Yan's arrangement, otherwise, no matter how good Li Cun is, it is impossible to inherit Li Yan's throne!

In other words, Li Yan really recognized Li Cun and really wanted to pass on his throne to Li Cun, Li Cun's problems, whether it was poor health, or no son, no, everything was no longer a problem, on the contrary, if Li Yan was unwilling to pass on his throne to Li Cun, then Li Cun would have no chance to be the emperor of Dazhong no matter what he did!

Therefore, Li Cun's smartest thing to do now is to follow Li Yan's arrangement in everything, instead of acting rashly.

Obviously, Li Cun had realized this, so he didn't listen to Yu Yunwen, and Chen Junqing also realized this, so he came to stop Yu Yunwen from continuing to do stupid things.

At this time, Yu Yunwen came to his senses, "The crown prince is very good, and he is very suitable for inheriting the vast empire of Dazhong, but whether the prince can inherit His Majesty's throne or not, it is not necessarily, it depends on His Majesty's final attitude, I am standing in line early!" ”

Chen Junqing's voice sounded again: "What you and I should do should be how to help His Highness establish virtue and assist His Highness in handling political affairs and running the big and medium, instead of helping His Highness to come up with ideas...... For the sake of you being a good talent, I will remind you one last sentence, Your Majesty is the first emperor of the ages who laid down these thousands of miles of rivers and mountains with his own hands, and there is never room for sand in his eyes, so you can do it yourself. ”
