"Cao Gong hasn't retired yet? It's really resistant! "In this case, Cao Cao still has the heart to confront Liu Bei in Hanzhong, he really has perseverance." Zitong, what's going on with Guan Yu? ”

Jiang Ji, the newly appointed Taiwei Mansion Commander, said disdainfully: "Guan Yu's army did not dare to enter the county, and sat back and watched Wancheng Houyin be defeated by Cao Ren, and the Xudu rebellion was quelled by Wang Bi. ”

"Or are we putting too much pressure on Guan Yu, and I'm wondering if we should instigate the Supreme to go to Huainan to see the army?" Qiao Ren then said: "It's not proper, it's not proper!" ”

Jiang Ji thought that this was a good method, but Qiao Renren suddenly felt strange when he said that it was inappropriate, and asked, "Jun Hou, why is it inappropriate." ”

"It's not appropriate to instigate. It should be a suggestion, and Lone will enter the palace. ”

After saying a word, Jiang Ji was overwhelmed.

In the spring of the twenty-third year of Jian'an of the Han Dynasty, Sun Ce, the Duke of Wu, who led the twenty-three counties of Sanzhou, went to Huainan with the Wuwei army, accompanied by Taiwei Qiao Ren, Sili Captain Sun Quan, the overseer general Zhuge Jin, and the Wuwei general Wei Yan. Leaving the great Sima general Zhou Yu, Prime Minister Sun Shao, and Imperial Historian Gu Yong to assist the prince Sun Shao to supervise the country, yes, it is the prison country, Sun Ce used to leave Sun Quan to stay behind most of the time on the expedition, but this time it was to let Sun Shao observe the Shangshutai meeting as a general of Zuo Zhonglang, which is actually no different from the prison country.

This is not Qiao Ren's handiwork, but Sun Ce regretted it. Since ancient times, no one in the emperor was willing to pass on his power to his younger brother, even the closest brother. How about King Liang Xiao? Liu Wu was a close relative of Emperor Jing, and was awarded the title of Liang State as the emperor's younger brother to protect Gyeonggi. It has the largest feudal kingdom and the most elite feudal army. Before the Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms, Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty formed a brotherly alliance with King Xiao of Liang, and King Xiao of Liang sat in Suiyang, the capital of Liang. In Suiyang, King Xiao of Liang was besieged by Wu Chu rebels. When the war was the hardest, Wu and Chu troops were all in the city, and then they were wiped out, and Zhou Yafu, the chief lieutenant, had been granted full military command by Emperor Jing of Han, and King Liang Xiao sent people to ask for reinforcements many times, but Zhou Yafu did not send troops to aid for the overall situation, and only let King Liang Xiao drag Wu Chu's army. In the end, Zhou Yafu cut off the grain and grass of Wu Chu's army, and Wu Chu's army was defeated. It can be said that to quell the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms, King Xiao of Liang made great contributions, not to mention that Emperor Xiaojing also personally said that King Liang would succeed to the throne after a thousand autumns. But what happened later, Emperor Jing regretted it and made Liu Che the crown prince, and he didn't have anything to do with Liu Wu on the throne at all.

And now our Duke Wu Sun Ce also regrets it, although Sun Ce once said to Sun Quan at the beginning: "You see, the military generals in front of you will become your subordinates in the future and assist you in achieving great causes." "But that's because Sun Ce had no heirs at that time, a force without an heir, and it was difficult to stabilize internally.

Although Sun Ce and Sun Quan have different personalities and different appearances, they are similar at all, that is, 'old man has a son', Sun Shao was born in Jian'an for four years, when Sun Ce was twenty-six years old, he can be regarded as an old man, not to mention that Sun Ce was assassinated in history in that year. Sun Ce regarded Sun Quan as the hidden successor at that time (he didn't say it directly), which also made some sense.

As for Sun Quan, his eldest son Sun Deng was born in the fourteenth year of Jian'an, when Sun Quan was also twenty-six years old, and he could be regarded as an 'old man'. And Sun Ce and Sun Quan are not unable to have children, but they do not have sons, Sun Ce gave birth to several daughters with several concubines and the late ex-wife when he was a teenager, but he has no sons. This is also one of the reasons why Sun Ce recognizes Sun Shao as his righteous son, and he plans to do it with both hands. And Liu Bei's acceptance of Liu Feng as his righteous son has a clear purpose, that is, to have an heir to stabilize people's hearts.

Forced by the need to stabilize the interior, Sun Ce did what he did at the beginning. But now his grandson Sun Shao is seventeen years old, and he is about to marry the Xu family, as a good heir, Sun Shao is already qualified. So Sun Ce regretted it, but he also knew how much his words had an impact on Sun Quan, even if Sun Ce's political talent was not high, but he also knew how difficult it was to know how difficult it was once the desire for power took root in a person's heart. Therefore, now he can only gradually keep Sun Quan away from military power, take a back seat, and be a royal brother and uncle in peace.

As a result, Sun Quan Si Li's important position as a lieutenant may not last long, and Sun Ce and Qiao Ren discussed whether Sun Quan needed to be placed in a suitable position. After all, Sun Quan is Sun Ce's younger brother, and there is nothing wrong with it, Sun Ce's character is not as good as Cao Pi's lack of brotherly affection.

"It's better for the younger brother to be crowned a prince by the second brother (Sun Quan)." Qiao Ren proudly brushed the short beard that he had stored for five years.

"The Lord? Lone is just a duke, how did he become a king. Sun Ce spread his hands innocently and continued: "What is the false seal besides? ”

"Brother-in-law will be a Duke of Wu in the future, as for the false seal, the rest of the remote collars complement each other. The so-called false seal means that there is only a title and no real land or a feudal power outside the jurisdiction of the country. By extension, in the future, princes and princes will receive taxes but not govern the people. In addition, the marquis of the fifth rank are all called ignorant of the people, and it is difficult to distinguish between high and low. Therefore, the younger brother believes that the title can be divided into three types: marquis, county king, and king. ”

"What is the king of the county?"

"Brother-in-law, the land of the feudal kingdom is much smaller than that of the princes' kingdoms. Therefore, the county kings are all titles of the second rank below the prince. In addition to the royal family, the subordinates also have to be crowned the king of the county. Qiao Ren continued to explain.

The highest marquis is the county, and the princes are all fiefs with a number of counties, and the small ones are also governed by a number of counties. Nowadays, the counties of the Han Dynasty are divided into three forces and become smaller and smaller, and it is common for three or four counties to be more than one county, and the setting of the county king is just between the prince (king) and the county candidate.

According to the Han system, the princes were rude, and the kingdom of the Han Dynasty was between direct and subordinate, especially in the early Han Dynasty, which had great autonomy, similar to the relationship between the suzerainty and the subordinate states. In the Western Jin Dynasty, the county king was popular, except for the emperor's son-in-law who could be crowned the prince, the rest were all county kings, and the princes of the Sui and Tang dynasties were even fewer, and because the kings were basically one-word fiefs (such as the king of Qin), so later generations had the common name of the king side by side.

"Not bad, not bad. Taking a county as a food town, receiving a feud but not governing the people, is no different from the county. However, he is a king, and he has been awarded with military merits, so that the generals can use their lives. Sun Ce's laughter became a lot more hearty.

After Gaozu, there is no king with a different surname, and the generals are not desperate for Bofeng Wang, you must know how difficult it is for the Hanmen to become a family, but it is easier to become a prince, which makes the Jiangdong Army generals who are the leaders of the Hanmen not work hard.

"I don't know brother-in-law, what kind of king do you want to give me in the future!?" Qiao Ren asked with a smile, "The younger brother doesn't ask for the prince, but a richer county king has to give it to me!" ”

"Gu Shang is still just Wu Gong, don't think too much. Haha, Zhongmou's side, if there is a Jin king in the future! ”

The king of Jin is the first prince in the world, and the allusion of Tongye sealing the country in the Western Zhou Dynasty is a symbol of brotherhood, and the important thing is not Sun Ce's territory, the Jin country is far away in the state, if there is no accident, it is really waiting for the Wu country to fight there, and it is not far from the unification of the world. It is still a question whether Sun Quan will be there at that time, even if he is still alive, Sun Shao has grown up to be a generation of Ming Jun.

"It's long coming, but is it inappropriate for the second brother to still serve as the captain of the division at present!!"

Although Captain Sili is not a military position, there are thousands of troops in Jianye, and like the Jinyi Guards of later generations, Captain Sili is also responsible for monitoring the ministers, and it is inevitable that some generals will fall into the hands of Sun Quan, which is a restless winner.

"Then who do you think Captain Sili can take on this important task?"

"Withdraw, what's the use of my brother-in-law not being a lieutenant?"

In the Han Dynasty, Si Li was the captain and was in charge of the seven counties of the two capitals of the capital of the Han Dynasty, which was almost the history of a state, but it was even more powerful. However, there is no place for Jingshi in Soochow, and Jianye is only one county, and there are Danyang County and Huiji County outside.
