Chapter 432: Feudal

Only Yang Liang has been kept in the palace, and when he was in the seventeenth year of the emperor's reign, he officially let him go out of Beijing to become a vassal domain. And at that time, he personally sent Taiyuan to take office, and for him, he deliberately incorporated more than ten states of Hebei into the annexed states, so that as soon as this youngest son became a domain, he would dominate more than 50 states in the old land of the entire Northern Qi Dynasty. The territory is the widest, the most populous, the most elite soldiers and horses, the richest place, and even gave him the privilege of acting cheaply and not being restricted by the law, just to give him greater rights, so that he can control Hedong as soon as possible, and he will not share his worries.

As a result, it took the most thought, the most pampered, but also the most useless, gold and jade, ruined among them, silver-like wax spear head.

A gentleman.

Let him lead the army to the east, and Yang Jian was confused when he was defeated, Yang Jian did not blame him entirely, but after the defeat, he desperately shirked his responsibility, but it was not the king's behavior. Coupled with those big and small problems, greedy for money and lustful, and now he is even doing such a thing as openly transferring troops to intercept and kill the emperor's grandson. Now, he still tells lies in front of his face without blinking.

Yang Jian shook his head, this son is hopeless.

"Yang Liang, you transferred troops to intercept the prince, this is a fact, no one wronged you, right?" Yang Jian's words were cold, without the slightest emotion, like an ice storm.

Yang Liang wanted to admit it, but when he looked up and saw the emperor's cold look, he couldn't say anything anymore.

"If you don't speak, that's acquiescence. Very good, at least you haven't said a lie in front of me, otherwise you would be a bully. Yang Jian said coldly, "I ask you again, do you still plan to kill the grandson and then plant the dirt on the head of the King of Jin?" ”

"Erchen Erchen" faced Yang Jian, who was abnormally Lingli, and Yang Yong was speechless. He knew that the matter had been revealed, and it was useless for him to refute and deny it. On the contrary, it may anger the angry father, and he does not want to make the emperor even more unhappy at this time. It had to be. In the end, it acquiesced.

It's one thing to see these things from Yang Lin's recital, but it's another thing to see Yang Liang not denying them, the fire in Yang Jian's heart is burning violently, he really wants to rush down and beat this unscrupulous son to death. But the queen kept one hand on his wrist, and he kept trying to restrain himself.

"I ask you again, is the assassination of Taisun in Jingzhong also your mastermind?" Yang Jian asked again.

Yang Liang was stunned for a moment, and then immediately blurted out a denial. "No, Your Majesty, Erchen has nothing to do with the Jingzhong Assassination Case, Your Majesty, the suspect in the Jingzhong Assassination Case is the King of Jin, that is a fact that there is already evidence, and it has nothing to do with me." Yang Liang is a person who refuses to suffer, and he wants to deny what he did himself, not to mention that the assassination case in Beijing was indeed not committed by him. It doesn't matter at all, how can he carry the black pot for others. What's more, he still carries the black pot for Yang Guang. He had been looking at Yang Guang wrongly, and he was deliberately trying to deal with Yang Guang. Where is he willing to carry this black pot for Yang Guang and let him clear his suspicion. Besides, Yang Liang had already decided in his heart that the assassination case in Beijing was committed by Yang Guang. After all, although the case was secret, after all, didn't a person surnamed Yu be found to be involved with him. That's the proof.

Yang Jian didn't believe Yang Liang's words at all, "If you dare to do it, you must dare to do it." Don't think you can deny it without finding evidence. Yang Jian was very angry, if Yang Liang admitted it, he might not be so angry.

"Father, mother, you have to believe that the son-in-law, the assassination case in Beijing really has nothing to do with the son-in-law, it was done by the king of Jin, and you have also found evidence related to him, I really didn't do it." Yang Liang desperately denied it, and even didn't forget to bring Yang Guang with him. If he wants to be unlucky, he can't be unlucky alone, he has to pull Yang Guang on his back, this is not only that he usually doesn't look at Yang Guang, but also has the idea of not being responsible for the law. If Yang Guang is indeed the mastermind of the assassination case in Beijing, then he is not the first to deal with Yang Lin. If the law does not hold the people accountable, perhaps they will be dealt with leniently.

It's a pity that he made a mistake in the emperor's thinking.

Yang Jian has now fully determined that he is not only the mastermind of the Taiyuan assassination case, but also the mastermind of the Jingzhong assassination case. And Yang Liang's denial made Yang Jian very dissatisfied and very dissatisfied.

"I'm disappointed in you!"

Yang Jian shook his head and sighed, completely disappointed in this son.

"If it were according to the law of the land, you would have been put to death."

Queen Dugu didn't speak together, that was because she felt that Yang Liang had done too much, and the palm of her hand was meat and the back of her hand was also meat, and King Han was stabbing Taisun, and it was twice, so how could she intercede. However, when she heard the emperor say that she would die everywhere, Queen Dugu was still shocked, she had only five sons, how could she let King Han be executed, although he did not do it right, but the grandson was fine, and he was dealt with strictly, but he couldn't be executed.

"Majesty" Queen Dugu said a word, and her tears couldn't stop flowing. When people reach their old age, they unexpectedly encounter this kind of thing, the son assassinated his grandson, and now he still wants his father to personally order the killing of his son? What a human tragedy this is?

Yang Jian was also moved by the queen's tears, and his heart was sad to death. He was also unwilling to execute Yang Liang, it was his son.

"Let's go! Then spare you death, depose you as a concubine, and exile you to Fangzhou, Shannan! ”

Hearing the deposition and exile, Yang Liang's face was colorless, he thought that no matter how severe the punishment was, it would only be a dismissal from official confinement, at least he had to retain the throne. Unexpectedly, the emperor was so ruthless, and he was directly deposed as a concubine and then exiled to Fangzhou. Where is Fangzhou, that is the most backward mountain in the Jingxiang area of Shannan.

"Father, Your Majesty, the son is guilty, he doesn't dare anymore, please spare the life of the son, the son doesn't want to go to Fangzhou, he doesn't want to die." Yang Liang kept kowtowing, tears and snot came out, scared.

"Supreme, please give Ark another chance." The queen also interceded for Yang Liang.

Yang Liang nodded hurriedly, "Your Majesty, please give Erchen another chance, Erchen is willing to invite himself to be the governor of Yizhou and go to Shuzhong to serve." ”

When Yang Jian heard this, he smiled angrily, "You still want to be the governor of Yizhou, what you think is beautiful!" ”

At this time, the queen said to Yang Jian, "It's better to divide Ake into a remote frontier and give him a place to build his own feudal country, which can be regarded as giving him a chance." ”

"Sealing the country?" Yang Jian paused.

After the establishment of the Sui Dynasty, there was no real feudal system, although the prince was out of the town to administer, but the governor's mansion was not equivalent to the feudal state. The territory of the governor's mansion is large, the smallest eighteen states, the largest more than fifty states, but the governors of each prefecture are not fixed, often rotated, Yang Guang served two terms as the governor of Yangzhou and one as the governor of Yangzhou, Yang Jun successively served as the governor of Yangzhou and Qinzhou Jingzhou, and only Yang Xiu, who had been the governor of Yizhou in Shuzhong for more than ten years before this, but now he was also transferred to Qinzhou. Other clans such as the county kingdom, although there are chiefs and generals, but none of them are feudal.

This is also the situation that Yang Jian took into account after the Wei Dynasty, especially the rebellion of the princes led by the feudal system in the Jin Dynasty, and did not implement this system of dividing the vassal states, but vigorously promoted the centralized system. But now the queen proposes to give Yang Liang a feudal country, seal him to a remote frontier, and let him fend for himself, which is also a way to deal with it. Although he said that he wanted to depose Yang Liang as a citizen and exile Fangzhou, he was also a little unbearable in his heart. After all, it is his own son, and if he is given a country, it can be regarded as a solution.

It's just that the Great Sui is unprecedented. It is not so simple to seal a country, is it only this one, or will other kings also be sealed in the future?

Queen Dugu whispered in Yang Jian's slap: "The concubine thinks that this unpaid is not a way, and she can settle Lang'er now." Later, after His Majesty really decides who will succeed, for the sake of the rest of the kings, he can also divide the kings into vassal states, so as to avoid the tragedy of the kings fighting in the same room in the future. "The queen also has such an idea, if the emperor inherits the country before Yang Yong in the future, then for the stability of the imperial court and the safety of other princes, the king of Jin, the king of Shu, and the king of Qin can be divided. In case if you plan to make King Jin the crown prince in the future, then you can divide Yang Yong, Yang Lin and other kings in advance, so as to avoid constant battles within the royal family over inheritance.

"Although the division can solve some problems, what if the princes oppose the central government in the future and raise an army to make trouble?" Yang Jian asked, after all, the Han and Jin dynasties, which implemented the feudal system, had such precedents of princely rebellion, and the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms in the Western Han Dynasty and the rebellion of the Eight Kings in the Western Jin Dynasty were all lessons from the past.

Queen Dugu obviously has already considered this problem, "It is not divided into the hinterland of the Central Plains, all of them are divided into frontiers, such as Lingnan, South Vietnam, such as Liaoxi, such as Southwest, the feudal country does not have to be too big, there are several counties, and the number of their soldiers and horses is stipulated, so that it can not only screen the imperial court, but also solve the problem of royal succession, and avoid fighting in the same room." Even once there is turmoil in the imperial court, the emperor can also summon the kings and kings to quell the chaos and always maintain the Yang family. ”

Yang Jian groaned. This is also a way, especially now that so many things have happened, so that Yang Jian, who didn't think about this issue originally, also began to think about it. He became the emperor, crowned the princes and kings, and then let them divide the towns into various places, each of which commanded dozens of towns. When he was the emperor, he was naturally fine, but now the battle around the heir has become more and more powerful. Yang Liang even dared to directly transfer troops to intercept and kill the grandson, if he died, no matter which son became the emperor at that time, would the other sons with heavy troops rebel?

Today's situation is that there is no feudal but a real feud, and the territory of each prince is very powerful.

This is also a hidden danger of Yan zhòng, after his death, who can restrain the powerful kings?

Perhaps, splitting is a good solution. It is called a feudal country, but in fact, it is equivalent to removing the now powerful kings from the position of the chief administrator, and letting them go to the frontier to suffer from the feudal state, so as to get rid of the troubles as soon as possible. The new feudal state is only set up as a state or a few counties, which is of course greatly weakened compared with the vast territory of dozens of states under the command of the current governor, and at the same time, these new feudal states are only sealed in the frontier, so the threat to the imperial court is greatly reduced, and they can guard the border for the imperial court.
