Military Division.

Until the third year of Xingqian, to the outside world, the military department was still an institution responsible for maintaining military law, and those who wore military uniforms and wore "military integrity" armbands on their sleeves were still a kind of deterrent to military personnel. But wherever there is a town garrison, there are patrolling military officers, who are responsible for dealing with military violations, after all, according to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, the patrol inspection has no right to arrest soldiers, which also makes the street patrol have no ability to restrain the soldiers, and can only rely on the military to maintain.

However, the Military Department also has a function, that is, guard and intelligence, which to a certain extent is equivalent to the Jinyi Guard of the old Ming Dynasty, which is not only responsible for the guards of the palace and key departments in Beijing, but also responsible for collecting and analyzing intelligence.

However, because this matter itself is extremely secretive, for outsiders, they don't know that the Military Department has this function, of course, for the officials who have been in it, they naturally know this responsibility of the Military Division, and because of this, every time Zhang Fengyang sees the patrolling military officers on the street, he will think about whether some of them will enter the second department in the future.

The second department is the intelligence department of the military department, and it is also the most important intelligence agency of the Ming Dynasty, so only the navy has its own intelligence department, but the intelligence briefing of the military department can be directly handed to His Majesty.

However, all this has become a thing of the past for Zhang Fengyang, he is now just an inspector, and he is divided into thirteen districts in Zhongdu, each district has an inspector, and each inspector has 15-20 inspectors under his command, and each inspector bears a team of patrols, and he is not responsible for the street, but the detective team is responsible for detecting cases, this work is very cumbersome, but in his opinion, it has something in common with the past work.

It also requires a lot of intelligence, analysis, and then judgment, however, in many cases, some cases will eventually become headless cases, and the case he is busy with recently has made him have no clue, so he will come to the scene of the crime again, sit on this tea stall and take advantage of the tea to straighten out the clues.

"Patrol Zhang."

Suddenly, a stranger sat down in front of him, this man was in his twenties, and he looked like a scholar.

"You are?"

Zhang Fengyang, who has an extraordinary memory, believed that he had not seen him, so he smiled.

"You are?"

"Does Inspector Zhang remember Ava's old friend?"

Ava's old friend!

The other party's reminder made Zhang Fengyang's eyebrows rise suddenly, and then said in a deep voice.

"Oh? Old friends? What kind of friend is it? ”

For Zhang Fengyang, everything that used to be has passed, and now he is only the inspection of the seventh grade, this is because this is the central capital, if it is the inspection of other prefectures, it may only be the eighth grade, if it is the county seat, but it is only the ninth grade.

"Inspector Zhang could have made a promise to that one back then, but I don't know if the inspector can remember the promise of the day?"

The person who came reminded Zhang Fengyang again.

What is the promise?

Zhang Fengyang naturally remembers that promise, but what is the meaning of that? After all, things are already wrong. And who is this person in front of you?

"Down here is Pan Renyuan, a retainer of King Gui's Mansion, I wonder if I can remember King Gui during the inspection?"

Who will forget King Gui, even if King Gui is "banned" by himself, since he entered Beijing, unless there is a will, he will never take the initiative to leave the palace, and few people in Beijing will forget him, after all, his identity is too special, too special.

Of course, for ordinary people, they naturally don't ask King Gui, but whoever remembers this person is by no means an ordinary person.

"Whether it is Beijing or Guangxi, for the imperial court, it is not a long-term place to settle the Gui Domain, so it is necessary to draw salary from the bottom of the kettle to settle once and for all."

"Draw a salary from the bottom of the kettle?"

Gu Yanwu looked at Zhu Daxian, and then said.

"You mean Xuannan?"

Zhu Daxian nodded slowly, stood up, took out a fold hidden in his sleeve, held it in both hands, and handed it to Gu Yanwu in person.

"It's not just about sealing Xuannan!"

Gu Yanwu took the fold suspiciously, and when he opened it and saw the words on it, he looked up at Zhu Daxian in surprise.

"Seal the country and build a state in Yidi?"

"Exactly!"

Zhu Daxian nodded and said.

"This is the excerpt of Lu Liuliang, the governor of Henan."

Gu Yanwu didn't speak, he glanced at the fold again, and then looked up at Zhu Daxian—Zhu Daxian just lowered his head and drank tea and didn't look at Gu Yanwu at all.

This is not a secret, in fact, in the past period of time, there have been rumors that this feudal Xuannan may be very different from the old feudal domain, but His Majesty does not seem to have expressed his position.

For Gu Yanwu, who supports feudalism, he can naturally know what the content of the excerpt is, and Lu Liuliang also told him in a private message that His Majesty's trip to Henan naturally knew that His Majesty might really have moved the idea of sealing the country and building a state, but he was still hesitating.

So he slowly put the fold on the case, lowered his head and was silent for a long time before finally looking up at Zhu Daxian and said.

"You and I already know the benefits of sealing the country and building a state. However, in my opinion, with only these few benefits, do you want Your Majesty to agree to establish the sect feudal state in Yidi? I'm afraid it's not that easy. ”

Zhu Daxian hurriedly leaned over and hugged his fists.

"I'm about to be taught."

Gu Yanwu glanced at the fold again, and then said.

"I'm afraid the difficulty is not that the people in the clan are panicking, after all, now there are only thirty-six people in those clans, and most of them are remote in blood, they cry in front of Your Majesty, I am afraid that they will be reprimanded by Your Majesty, but don't forget, Your Majesty also has five sons, and three of the palace concubines are pregnant, Your Majesty has no less than ten concubines in the harem, and there will be many heirs in the future. At best, it is said that it is to establish a state, so that it can establish itself as a king and expand its inheritance, but at worst, it is equivalent to exile. If the other clans don't say it, what should the princes do? Do you want to be feudal overseas? ”

As soon as Gu Yanwu said this, Zhu Daxian nodded and said.

What Ning Ren said is true. However, if you can establish a state overseas, and the princes can expand their ancestral business, wouldn't it be better than being an idle king? ”

"The truth is this, but how many people in the world are willing to keep their children away? Besides......"

After pondering for a moment, Gu Yanwu said again.

"Such a distant clan, but also involves a problem, that is, the survival of the royal family, although the Taishang is in the prime of life, the prince is also Kang'an, it can be seen that I have more than 200 years of the Ming Dynasty, how can this bloodline survive, if he has a king like a martial arts sect to die without a queen, who will succeed to the throne, if the clan is feudal in a foreign land, the emperor and the court can not fight for each sect, how to choose a new monarch?"

"Yes, this is indeed a problem, when the Qing Dynasty entered the Kou, the reason why I lost Jiangnan in a year is precisely because of the dispute over the succession, from Hongguang to Longwu and then to Yongli, during which it can be described as a constant dispute, "the father dies and the son succeeds, and the brother dies and the brother ends", although it is good, but in fact it is full of loopholes, if not, how can there be civil strife in my Ming Dynasty, so that the Qing Dynasty picked up the cheap? ”

Referring to the chaos within the Ming Dynasty caused by the battle for the succession to the throne since the year of Jiashen, both of them sighed, and after a long time, Gu Yanwu said.

"So, these are all problems, if these problems can't be solved, even if Your Majesty is willing to seal the princes in Yidi, I'm afraid it won't be easy to fight, the feudal clans can indeed defend the royal family, but if there is no law, I'm afraid that the two generals will be the king of Lu and the king of Tang will succeed to the throne."

"The father dies and the son succeeds, and the brother dies and the brother dies and the younger brother dies."

Zhu Daxian nodded. Then he said.

"How can you and I speak lightly, besides, how can there be any other way?"

The father dies and the son succeeds, the brother dies and the brother dies, and the common meaning of the world is also.

"It's not to find other ways, and to make some things clear, I am the elder to succeed to the throne, but if only the elder stays in the capital, then in case of an accident, there is no queen, who is the king? That's all that matters! ”

The most important thing is that the emperor's heirs have all been sealed overseas, and it may take a year to go back and forth. A kingdom shall not be without a king for a day.

"Is it possible, as the drama says, to seal the sons first, and then come first to the king?"

Of course, this is a joke, the so-called "the first to come is the king", but it is just a joke about Sejong's succession to the throne in the play.

"Hmm."

After pondering for a moment, Zhu Daxian said.

"Since Your Majesty can seal the crown prince in Beijing and let him guard the north, then the second prince can also set up a palace in Nanjing, and after the prince has an heir, the second prince will return to the country, so what do people think?"

If Zhu Mingzhong heard this, the first reaction in his mind was probably that this second prince was a "spare tire". However, for Gu Yanwu, although Zhu Daxian's suggestion has its shortcomings, it also has its merits. In the case of Zhuzi's distant feud, the local area really needs to leave a "spare tire".

"Even so, there is still a difficulty-that is, the situation of the clan being far away. The cost of escorting the current thirty-six clans to the country is probably not a small amount, besides, it is impossible to let the clans go into battle shirtless, and the imperial court may still need to restore the guards of the various feudal clans, and also help them build cities, and even help them crusade...... The feudal feudal domains were so powerful, but their land and taxes were not owned by the Ming Dynasty. How can this expenditure be accounted for to the world? ”

Every time the Ming Dynasty has a vassal king to go to the country, it will cost more than hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, and this time let thirty-six clan relatives go to the country, tens of millions of taels of expenses, although the court can afford it now, but after all, it needs to be explained to the people of the world.

"According to my Ming custom, Prince Lu, 12,000 stone a year, even if it costs hundreds of thousands of taels, it is just his prince's money for decades, not to mention that his children, county kings, and generals all have money, and the court has a sum of money for the time being, but it is also once and for all, since then, there is no need to bear the clan money, in this way, it can be regarded as an explanation to the people of the world, right?"

In addition to this explanation, Zhu Daxian said again.

"Actually, the most important thing to make the vassal king a country is probably people, not the country!"
