This is a bit far-fetched, Lao Jiuyinyu listened to it disapprovingly, although Kangxi has always disliked him, but said that Kangxi is a jealous and jealous master, he still disagrees, as an emperor, his prestige and imperial power are not to be challenged, but the prince candidate is naturally to choose as good as possible, is it difficult to choose a bad one? Of course, the premise of this is not to endanger the imperial power, and the fourteenth brother does not exactly meet this condition?

Where did Yin Yu know Lao Jiu's thoughts, and said eloquently: "Among the brothers, the fourteenth brother can be said to be one of the most excellent, not to mention the advantages, the disadvantage is that he is sharp, does not know how to converge, and the more serious is ambitious, war-hungry, aggressive, as the so-called, although the country is big, the warlike will perish, if the fourteenth brother is the king of a country, I am afraid it is not the blessing of the country."

But if you don't set up the fourteenth brother as the crown prince, the emperor Ama will inevitably attract material discussion, after all, the fourteenth brother can be outstanding and famous, and what is even more worrying is the strength and power in the hands of the fourteenth, and the other brothers are the princes, who can withstand the blows of the fourteenth brother, will inevitably repeat the mistakes of the past, and once again stage the drama of abolishing the prince.

Therefore, Starling thought that Huang Ama would inevitably delay the establishment of a new prince, and at the same time, he would gradually weaken and suppress the power and strength of the fourteenth brother. And the fourteenth brother has already seen this, in order to protect himself, he can only do everything to enhance his strength and power, trying to force Huang Ama to make him the crown prince.

This is the contradiction between Huang Ama and the fourteenth brother, don't look at the fact that Huang Ama now trusts the fourteenth brother, on the issue of establishing the prince, the two will inevitably have a vicious fight.

We don't need to do anything now, just wait and see, if the fourteenth brother wins and has to be established as the prince, then we can't admit defeat or not, we can only support the fourteenth brother with all our hearts. If the fourteenth brother is defeated, we can pick up the ready-made cheap, beat the water dogs, and beat the fourteenth brother in one fell swoop and never have a chance to turn over.

Although it is to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, but we can't do nothing, don't forget, there is a fourth brother, we must go all out to fight and contain the fourth brother, if the old fourteen wins, this is a great achievement, the old fourteen loses, we are getting rid of a potential opponent. ”

Hearing this, Lao Jiuyinyu couldn't help nodding again and again, secretly admiring, the fourteenth brother is indeed warlike, the navy has not yet become an army, and he is already busy fighting in the east and west, if from the point of view of being warlike and dying, it is indeed not the most ideal candidate for the prince, and what the fourteenth brother is doing at present must indeed pave the way for the prince, it seems that the fourteenth brother and Kangxi must have a fierce battle.

Thinking of this, Yin Yu said regretfully: "It is said that the fourteenth brother has a long-term vision, this time it can be said that he has lost his eyes, if he had seen this situation earlier, wouldn't he have been a hundred in the sea when he was the emperor Amma?" ”

"Ninth brother, this is demanding." Eighth Elder Brother Yinyu took a sip of tea, and then said lightly: "At that time, the situation was chaotic, if Huang Ama died, the fourteenth brother only had 7,000 navies in his hands, and the musketeers were only 3,000, he was not sure that he would destroy the prince in one fell swoop in a short period of time. Not to mention the crown prince, even us, the fourteenth brother was not sure at that time, because of the navy's shelling of Huang Ama in Tianjin, the fourteenth brother was still carrying the black cauldron of killing the king and usurping the throne at that time, and it was not ordinarily difficult to ascend the throne.

For the fourteenth brother, it is better to win in chaos than to win in stability, even now, the fourteenth brother's decision at that time was the most correct. ”

"What about after you solve the crown prince? Didn't the fourteenth brother still have a chance at that time? Yin Yu said, his hand splitting slightly.

"Who is Huang Ama? How could you not have imagined this? The news of the prince's defeat could not be hidden, how could the fourteenth brother dare to take such a big risk? Turning great achievements into great disasters? Yin Yu said lightly: "Overseas separation, it is indeed wonderful, I don't know how Huang Ama will deal with it, not to mention, this dragon and tiger fight is really exciting." The news of the great victory of the navy in the South Seas, the capture of the Spanish Empire's port of Manila in Greater Luzon, and the occupation of Greater Luzon soon spread throughout the capital, but the joy was not the good news, but the sale of 10 million fertile land and sturdy slaves on the island of Greater Luzon, and it was sold at the price of cabbage

As soon as the news came out, Greater Luzon Island immediately became a hot topic of discussion, and after Yinzhen heard about it, he immediately condemned people to go around publicizing that Luzon is only 400 miles away from Taiwan Island, and it can be reached in one day by boat, and it is only four days away from Manila Port to Guangzhou, and it is only three days from Dagupan Port to Guangzhou.

For a while, the major teahouses, restaurants, and guild halls in Beijing were all talking, and the people in the palace tried their best to spread and answer all kinds of questions.

"Is it safe to buy land in Greater Luzon?"

"The navy of the Fourteenth Master has begun to fully occupy the South Seas, and wants to establish the South Seas Province, and even the Spanish fleet has been captured, do you say that the land on Luzon Island is guaranteed?"

"Are the fields in Luzon sold alive or sold? Do you have to pay taxes? ”。

"Lord, this is not nonsense, naturally it is a sale, as for paying taxes, it will be tax-free for five years."

"How many acres is there? Now the market price is seven taels and one mu, and the best paddy fields are only twelve taels, what is the price of the so-called cabbage? Is it a few dollars of silver per acre? ”

"The lord is asking the right person, listening to the fourteenth master, no more than one or two acres, and the specific depends on the quality of the field."

"What about slaves? How many slaves are there? Now a sturdy slave is only twenty taels, what is the price of a slave in Luzon? ”

"It's not clear, it should be around three or two."

"Let's put it this way, the climate of Luzon Island is suitable, the rain is sufficient, if you plant rice, you can yield two stones per mu, absolutely no problem, just calculate it according to one stone and one tael, you can return to the capital in one year, and you can grow sugarcane to boil sugar, and the income will be more, if you buy land in Luzon, slaves, you can definitely return to the capital in one year."

"Isn't this silver falling from heaven? Why is it sold so cheaply? ”

"Can't figure this out? Fourteenth Master, this is to see if anyone buys it? Will it be necessary for the Navy to vigorously occupy land overseas in the future? To put it bluntly, this land sale is an attempt, after this village, there will be no such shop, do you think there will be such a cheap opportunity next time? Didn't I hear that the lands of Mindanao and Borneo were to be divided among the clan nobles? ”

As soon as I heard that the islands in the South Seas would be divided into feudal feuds for the clan and nobles, everyone was interested, since those princes and nobles had fiefs in the South Seas, the imperial court naturally wanted to try its best to maintain the stability of the South Seas, besides, it would be possible to return to the capital in one year, what else was there to worry about?

The opportunity is rare, this time it is really silver falling from the sky, although the South Seas are far away, and you don't have to go in person, send your nephews to go, less than 100,000 taels of silver can hang a thousand tilt cards This kind of good thing can be found where?

In the inner city of the capital division, in the hall of the 'Sulbo Residence', there was also a commotion at this time, and the news from the Fourteenth Master said that no matter the nobles of the clan, regardless of the Mongol and Han families, those with titles above the second rank have the opportunity to be divided

Almost all the clan relatives and nobles with titles above the second rank, and all the ministers of civil and military affairs gathered in the hall of the 'Sulbo Residence', and they inquired one after another to discuss the authenticity and possibility of this matter

Dividing the feud, which began in the Western Zhou Dynasty, was to divide the royal family, meritorious heroes, and nobles into various places to establish vassal states; The feudal states had to bear various obligations to the king and were controlled by the king in order to consolidate and expand their rule, but the political, financial, military, and personnel powers of the feudal state were not controlled by the state.

For thousands of years, the sub-feudal system has been repeatedly abolished, the former Ming Dynasty is the implementation of the sub-feudal system for the royal family, the three feudatories at the beginning of the founding of the Qing Dynasty, are also sub-feudal, compared to these empty cylinder princes who are now stuffed in the capital, it is simply a world of difference, there is no comparison at all..., is to hear the overseas sub-feudal, a group of clan nobles can not sit still, have to go around to inquire about the specific news, but the old fourteen and closed the door to refuse guests, a group of people have rushed to the most well-informed ' Even the idle clan relatives who never cared about political affairs rushed over, and people naturally gathered more and more, which was a little more lively than a court meeting.

If it is said that it is a division within the territory of the Qing Dynasty, then naturally no one dares to believe that the rebellion of the three feudatories has only passed for more than 30 years, and the older ones are still fresh in their memories, and no one wants to be the prince who did not have a good death, but the overseas division is different, let's say that the South Seas, which is four or five days or ten and a half days and a month away from the mainland, cannot pose a threat and influence on the Qing Dynasty at all. On the positive side, the Nanyang feud could also serve as a barrier for the country, and the relationship was far stronger than that of the vassal states of the Qing Dynasty.

The victory in the South Seas can be said to be another proof of the strength of the Qing navy, which has enough ability to occupy vast lands overseas, what should be done with these lands? Is it sold? Then someone has to buy it, just one Luzon Island, there are enough hundreds of millions of acres of land, even if it is sold for five dollars of silver per mu, that is 50 million taels of silver, how much silver can the people use to buy land? And what about so much land? Don't, or is it idle and deserted? It is ideal to use it to divide the natural seal.

If a group of noble ministers are still skeptical, the royal family is convinced that overseas division is absolutely imperative

Three years ago, when the navy was first built, Kangxi made a vague promise that any clan with children joining the navy would have unexpected rewards overseas, at that time they were just thinking about staking and free slaves, but they never thought that the old fourteen would clearly propose overseas separation

The family members of the royal family are all smiling, but no one is willing to break it, Kangxi was strict not to allow the slightest leakage, at present, the overseas division has been officially proposed, and the implementation will not be too far, once Kangxi is jealous, this overseas division is likely to be in vain, and it will be worth the loss.
