Seeing that Emperor Han Jing was in a good mood, Liu Rong felt that it was time to make his own suggestions.

He stepped forward and said:

"Father, the second brother mentioned Jia Yi, and recently his sons are also reading his strategy, and they are deeply inspired."

"Jia Yi's article knowledge, unique in the world, peerless, can be called my first genius in the Han Dynasty. It's a pity that the genius is jealous, if he is still alive, he will definitely be able to fight the confusion in his father's chest. ”

Listening to Liu Rong's words, Emperor Han Jing nodded, his eyes wandering, as if he was caught in a memory.

I just heard him say:

"I have also had a few encounters with Na Jia Yi, and his talent is quick and knowledgeable, which can be called a national weapon. Even Chao Cuo, who has always been arrogant, admires him. ”

"At that time, it was your fourth uncle Liu Yi who was the king of Liang, and he was appointed as the prince of Liang. Hey, that year, your fourth uncle unfortunately fell from a horse and died, Jia Yi felt deeply remorseful, and he turned white overnight, and soon died of depression. ”

"If he can live to this day, with his ingenuity, he must also be a pillar of the Han court, but it's a pity. By the way, Rong'er, you just said that you are deeply inspired, what is going on? ”

。。。。。。

After listening to Emperor Han Jingdi's question, Liu Rong replied:

"Erchen read Jia Yi's 'If you want the peace and order of the world, you should build princes and less their strength'' 'cut the land and customize, so that Qi, Zhao, and Chu are each a number of countries...... The descendants of the descendants will be divided by their ancestors, and the land will be exhausted', and they have some understanding, thinking that this is the best strategy for cutting the feudal domain that the father is looking for. ”

"Father, if the imperial court directly issues an edict to cut down the feudal domain, collect charges, and forcibly occupy the land of the princes, everyone in the world will be in danger. When the time comes, they will huddle together and fight against the imperial court, which will definitely cause a military disaster, and the people of the world will not be able to make a living. This is by no means the result that my father wants to see. ”

"We might as well do what Jia Yi said, take the construction of the princes and cut the feudal domain with less effort. It's definitely a clever and good idea. ”

"Let's take Huainan Kingdom as an example, when it was first divided, Huainan Kingdom had jurisdiction over Jiujiang, Lujiang, Hengshan, and Yuzhang four counties, with a total of dozens of cities, and their strength was strong, so Liu Changcai, the king of Huainan, dared to collude with the Yue people to rebel."

At that time, Emperor Taizongwen should have abolished his feudal state and returned the territory of Huainan to the imperial court. However, it was rumored that the emperor's grandfather was greedy for the land of Huainan, so the two brothers were incompatible and killed his younger brother; Because of this, the princes were fluctuating, fearing that they would become the next Huainan Kingdom, and were very resistant to the imperial court. ”

"The emperor's grandfather was merciful, not only no longer pursuing the sins of Huainan, but instead ordered Liu Chang's three sons to divide Huainan and each became kings, from then on, Liu An was the king of Huainan, Liu Bo was the king of Hengshan (later renamed the king of Jibei), and Liu Ci was the king of Lujiang (later renamed the king of Hengshan)."

"In this way, the Huainan Kingdom was divided into three, although it was not as happy as completely returning to the imperial court, but it finally weakened the strength of the Huainan Kingdom, and the world was much more stable."

Similarly, when the State of Qi was divided for the first time, Liu Fei, the king of Qi Mourning, had more than 70 cities under his jurisdiction, and his strength was the highest among the princes. After the death of King Mourning Hui, the eldest son Liu Xiang succeeded to the throne, Liu Xiang died early, no sons-in-law, the country was removed, and the land was returned to the imperial court. ”

"But the imperial grandfather thanked the sons of Liu Fei, the king of Qi mourning, for their meritorious work in quelling the Zhulu Rebellion (failed to seize the throne), and divided the land of Qi to Liu Fei's surviving sons: Liu Zhang, Liu Xingju, Liu Zhi, Liu Piguang, Liu Wei, Liu Xiongqu, and Liu Xian."

"This move, although it failed to bring the Qi State back to the imperial court, but the Qi State has since been divided into seven, and the Qi Kingdom, as the largest vassal state in the East, has collapsed, and it can no longer pose a mortal threat to the imperial court."

After that, Liu Xingju, the king of Jibei, rebelled, but it was just an egg hitting a stone. If the Qi country is not divided and rises up to rebel, the result is unpredictable. ”

After listening to Liu Rong's narration, Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty nodded, the rebellion of Huainan and the rebellion of Jibei were both rebellions of princes and kings with the same surname rather than different surnames, which was the eternal pain of the Han Dynasty, as if it was still vivid.

Now, the princes with the same surname are eyeing each other and gearing up. Misdeeds.

At that moment, at this moment.

。。。。。。

Liu Rong cleared his throat and continued:

These facts are enough to show that dividing the princes, rather than directly returning the princes' lands to the central government, is the most clever strategy to reduce the vassals. First, there is less resistance, and second, it will not be realized. ”

"Nowadays, the Han Dynasty implements the primogeniture inheritance system, and other young sons and concubines have no inheritance rights."

Erchen suggested that this system be changed. The imperial court issued an edict to push grace, so that the sons of the princes, except for the eldest son, after inheriting the throne, the other sons, regardless of the eldest and youngest, could share a piece of land in the mother country as a marquis, and directly belong to the jurisdiction of the neighboring Han County. ”

In this way, everyone will be pleased, and the country will be divided by virtue and government, and the country will not be weakened. The power of the imperial court can become stronger and stronger by constantly encroaching on the land of the princes. ”

"According to the speculation of the retainers, it only takes a generation, that is, twenty years, for the power of the princes to no longer be able to threaten the imperial court. After a hundred years, there will be no more princes who cross counties and cities and divide regions. ”

"This is the son's encouragement, please father Mingjian!"

Liu Rong's words were deafening, as if one after another sledgehammer smashed into Emperor Han Jing's chest, making his blood rush and his whole body tremble.

He had been thinking about cutting the feudal domain for a long time, and his original plan was to charge him with netting, and on this ground, he directly issued an edict to recover part of the land of the princes.

The Imperial Historian has already collected almost all the crimes of the princes in various places.

Now, Liu Rong suddenly offered him a plan to cut down the feudal domain by pushing grace.

It was a path he never envisioned.

"Good, good, good." He said three good words in a row, and he was very satisfied with Tuien's suggestion.

Emperor Jing of Han looked at Liu Rong solemnly, this son's political wisdom was far beyond his imagination.

Jia Yi's law and order policy, he had also read it, why couldn't he come up with the method of using Tui'en to cut the domain?

If this law can really be implemented, the problem of the division of princes will be completely solved.

Just, can this method really work?

He wasn't sure in his heart, so he decided to discuss it with someone close to him.

Emperor Han Jing patted Liu Rong on the shoulder to show encouragement, in just a few days, this son has given him too many surprises.

"Rong'er, your suggestion is very good, my father will think about it seriously."

After speaking, he left Liu Rong's palace directly.

He always felt that Liu Rong's seemingly perfect advice always had some major flaws hidden in it.

Things don't seem to be as simple as Liu Rong said, but for a while, he doesn't know what the problem is.

At this time, he had to ask his brain about what was wrong.
