Chapter 58: The General Trend of the World

The Great Xu Dynasty had a vast territory, far wider than the territory in Chen Le's previous history.

After the founding of the Great Xu Dynasty, according to the territory of the previous dynasty, a total of 39 prefectures were established, each state had three to five counties, and each county had three to five counties.

At present, the area that the Daxu Imperial Court can actually control is only Jingzhou, which is the second largest state in the world, with five counties and 25 counties, located between Qin and Zhao.

The remaining 38 states were divided among the vassal states.

There are nine vassal states in the world, namely Qi, Chu, Yan, Zheng, Zhao, Wei, Qin, Wu, and Yue.

The monarch of each vassal state is called the king, and the official system of the kingdom is directly imitated by Da Xu, and there are six ministers of three princes and nine ministers.

The state set up the history of the assassination, the three products, the military and political power is grasped with one hand, the history of the assassination is set up below, and the generals are all four products.

The county is set up too shou, also known as the county guard, is the fourth product, the too shou is set up below the county cheng, the military set up the captain, are all the five products.

There is a state in the state, and it is five products.

There is a prefect in the county, and it is six products.

There is a county in the county, and it is seven products.

The official positions of the vassal states are accepted by the king, and then symbolically presented to the Daxu court, which can only pinch its nose and admit it, even if it does not recognize the vassal states, it will go its own way, and the Daxu court will lose face in the end.

Among the nine kingdoms of the princes, there are rich and barren, there are strong soldiers and fierce horses, and there are weak people in the land of fish and rice.

Chen Le didn't know much about these countries, but after Zeng Gong next to him, he had a rough judgment on the strength of these countries.

"Qingzhi, what do you think about the general trend of the world today?" Zeng Gong turned around and sat down at the table, picked up a cup of tea, and took a sip gently.

The corners of Chen Le's mouth twitched, what thoughts? I'm thinking big, but can I tell you? And although I have a big idea, but now I want soldiers without soldiers, I want land without territory, I want an official position without an official position, what do you want me to say?

"Mr. Zeng, with all due respect!" Chen Le had a solemn expression.

"Qingzhi, sit down and talk!" Zeng Gong touched his beard and said.

Chen Le shook his head, looked at the map and said slowly: "The general trend of the world, if you join for a long time, you will be divided, and you will be divided for a long time!" ”

Zeng Gong's expression moved when he heard this: "A good one will be divided for a long time, and it will be divided for a long time, Qingzhi, the princes and nine kingdoms have now formed a trend of nine dragons to win the pearl, what do you think?" ”

Chen Le blinked, he didn't want to answer this question head-on, so he used the sentence just now to prevaricate, but he didn't expect that this Zeng Gong had no taboos, and he asked directly.

He was silent for a moment and said, "Mr. Zeng, may I ask what kind of emperor is the current Emperor Xu Tianzi?" ”

Zeng Gong nodded: "I have had several encounters with him today, which can be summed up in four words. ”

"What four words?" Chen Le thought to himself, is it mediocre?

"There is Daoming-kun!" Zeng Gong said slowly.

Chen Le immediately frowned when he heard this, but he didn't expect Zeng Gong to say these four words, so he continued: "It's a pity, there is no way!" ”

Is there a way but no life? What kind of saying is this, it seems that the sage once said that the king is mediocre and the minister is far away, but later there are also ill-intentioned pseudo-Confucians who say that the king is not evil, and the minister is not good; All good is to the king, and all evil is to the minister.

However, Zeng Gong said that Xu Tianzi is a Taoist monarch today, in this case, why do you still say that he has no life?

Zeng Gong looked at Chen Le and sighed lightly, Chen Le suddenly woke up to the fact that he thought things too well, he always thought that Zeng Gong was first of all a descendant of Zengzi and a contemporary Confucian, so he had a preconceived concept, but he didn't know that the first thing in front of him was the head of the Zeng family, the head of the high-ranking family, the head of the world's first-class family, the first thing he had to think about was how to preserve the family in this troubled world, and then how to get the greatest benefit in this troubled world, and everything else was secondary!

"For example, today's pattern has been formed for a long time, the general trend is irreversible, as you said to Qingzhi, it must be divided for a long time, and it must be combined for a long time, this general trend is not easy to reverse with the so-called Daoming Jun, at this moment, even if it is the rebirth of the founding ancestor of the Great Xu Dynasty, it cannot be changed!"

"Da Xu has existed in name only, only one state remains, Da Xu's court is rotten, deceived and concealed, it has been rotten from the roots, Da Xu's imperial examination champions have run away, and talents are not accepted, even if there are heroes and great strategies today?"

"The great world will be opened, it will inevitably be accompanied by the gathering of the wind and clouds, every person who dominates the great world, the wind and clouds will inevitably gather, every time the great world opens, there will be all kinds of stars, hundreds of years of luck are gathered at this moment, the stars are shining, competing for the night sky! The people on the Wenhua List and the Wuying List in this era are far stronger in terms of talent and age, but although Xu Tianzi has a way, the other princes and kings have no way? Xu Tianzi lives up to this kind of luck! ”

Chen Le was speechless, it seems that this Zeng family master is determined to overthrow Daxu, but this is nothing, it seems that this is also his goal, he can have a peerless overlord system, what is a peerless overlord system? The peerless is unique, the overlord is the male lord who is the king and the hegemon, and what he wants to do is the only male lord! Although this is the goal given to him by the system, it is not his wish to come through and make a career?

"Qingzhi, come with me to the front hall for a banquet!" Zeng Gong said at this time.

Chen Le nodded, and followed Zeng Gong out of the room, and this night, he spent the night in Zeng's mansion......

A day later, Luershan Jixia School Palace Chen Le's residence.

"Senior Brother Chen, I can't ask for this 10,000 taels of silver tickets!" Xiao Luo's tone was very firm.

Chen Le sat on the broken chair and said strangely: "Su Xi didn't want this silver because she had a holiday with me, but Shangguan Qian accepted it, and among all of them, only you, senior sister, deserve it the most!" ”

Xiao Luo's face turned crimson and she just shook her head, seeing that she couldn't convince Chen Le, she put the silver ticket on the table and ran out of the door, saying as she ran: "Senior Brother Chen, I can't ask for this money, it's not good!" ”。

Chen Le watched her leave and shrugged his shoulders, what's wrong? I don't have any other ideas!

He took the silver ticket and walked out of the room, the school palace is still on vacation these days, and then it will be revealed which students will be admitted to the prefecture level, so he has nothing to do.

Autumn was now in full swing on Mount Kago, and it took him an hour to climb a peak, and then he stood on the top of the peak and looked west.

In the west, out of the Zhao State is the boundary of Jingzhou, which is the last place controlled by the Great Xu Dynasty, where there is Jingzhou City, there is a court, there is a son of heaven, and there are civil and military officials.

What kind of place is Jingzhou? Chen Le thought so.

……

Sixty miles outside the city of Jingzhou, at the foot of Jingshan Mountain, the maple leaves are red and hot.

A huge group of men and horses stopped here, and then a little girl jumped out of a carriage of great luxury.

The little girl was about ten years old, born with a beautiful little face, she stood at the bottom of the mountain and watched left and right, and then said softly to a middle-aged man behind her: "Father, this is it!" ”

The middle-aged man's face was full of surprise and asked, "Huang'er, right here?" ”

The little girl nodded vigorously: "Here it is!" ”

The middle-aged man thought for a moment when he heard this, then smiled slightly, and said loudly: "Come on, enclosure, from today onwards, within a radius of ten miles here will be my Lanling Xiao family!" ”
