Chapter 259: The sword has a double edge, and there are pros and cons to things

"Cut the Domain!"

"With the temperament of Emperor Zhengde, he will inevitably take advantage of this defeat in Mobei."

"Do that act of cutting the feudal domain in secret."

In the study room of the side hall of the Yanwang Mansion Carrier Palace.

Xu Yi sat upright on the Taishi chair, browning slightly and muttering in a low voice.

The reason why he dared to be so sure was not only based on his research and understanding of Emperor Zhengde.

It is also based on the attitude of the rulers in the history books when they faced similar incidents.

No one in power could tolerate a situation in which the central court was weakening while the kings of the frontier were growing.

If you think about it from this point of view, it is not difficult to guess that Emperor Zhengde is very likely to have a series of actions after the defeat of Mobei.

First of all, one thing can be very clear.

That is after the last decisive battle of Mobei in the fifteenth year of Zhengde.

The kings of the border pass and the central court entered into recuperation at the same time.

Since entering the recuperation period, there will be a major natural and man-made disaster almost every two or three years.

The last two times were like the Shandong flood the year before last.

The historian recorded it as: 'The river overflowed the plains, and there was a great hunger and cannibalism. ,

For example, last year's drought in Guanzhong.

The historian recorded it as: 'There are more than thousands of miles of red land in Guanzhong, and there is great hunger and cannibalism. ,

And every time a large-scale natural disaster occurs, it means a dramatic depletion of the state treasury.

On the other hand, the king of the big periphery has no such worries.

None of them.

The king of Bian only has the tax revenue of Shiwanyi in the fief, but has no right to govern the people's livelihood in the fief.

This rule set by Emperor Taizu when he opened the state domain seems to have greatly restricted the rights of the border kings.

But don't forget that there are two sides to everything.

The king of the border does not have the right to govern the people's livelihood in the fief, so he naturally does not need to be responsible for the people's livelihood in the fief.

Regardless of whether there is a major drought or a sudden flood in the fiefdom, all the consequences are the responsibility of the central court, and have nothing to do with the border king.

It is precisely because of this that the Central Imperial Court is busy with disaster relief, and even when it consumes its own strength for disaster relief.

The kings of the border domains were silently recuperating.

In addition, there are a series of issues such as military salaries.

Unlike the imperial court, which needs to support the whole country's soldiers and horses, the kings of the border domains only need to take care of their own one-third of an acre.

Before there was no war.

The end result was inevitably that the kings of the border domains grew stronger and stronger, and the central court became stronger and weaker according to the livelihood of the people in various places.

In this case.

How could Emperor Zhengde not use the defeat of Mobei to secretly weaken the kings of the border passes?

The second is the defeat of Mobei itself.

It is like a bronze mirror, unceremoniously shining directly at the central court itself.

If this battle in Mobei, Li Guangli defeated the Xiongnu Zuogu Liwang with a thunderous force.

Then, no matter how strong the kings of the border domains were, they would not dare to act rashly in this situation.

The final result of the First Battle of Mobei was that Li Guangli was defeated and lost more than 10,000 soldiers.

What this means is naturally self-evident to the kings of the border domains.

It is based on this.

Therefore, Emperor Zhengde will inevitably order the kings of the border domains to send troops to Mobei.

That's what I think about.

The corners of Xu Yi's mouth rose slightly, outlining a slightly cold smile.

"Emperor Zhengde, it's really calculating." ….

Xu Yi's body leaned back slightly, and he said with emotion.

No matter what the central court looks like under the bronze mirror of Mobei's defeat.

Even if the kings of the border domains really had different intentions, they would never dare to act rashly before the situation was clear or 'completely chaotic.

After all, the first person to stand up openly often becomes the one who loses it.

If it is more popular, it is a shot to the first bird!

It is based on this.

Emperor Zhengde ordered the kings of the border domains to send troops to Mobei, which can be called a conspiracy to a certain extent!

If the vassal king receives the order, all the soldiers he sends will be 'old, weak, sick and disabled.' ,

Then the imperial court will inevitably use this as an excuse to label the vassal king as 'the one who has lost everyone.' ,

At that time, Emperor Zhengde will be able to rightfully annex all that the vassal kings have lost.

If the vassal king gets the order, the soldiers sent are all elite soldiers.

Then for Emperor Zhengde, it is tantamount to double happiness.

First, it could use the power of the vassal king to attack the Xiongnu, and then relieve the pressure on the imperial army itself in the face of the Xiongnu.

Second, it can borrow the power of the Xiongnu to reduce the feudal domain for it.

It can be said that whether it is the elite soldiers of the vassal king who consume the Xiongnu troops, or the Xiongnu troops consume the elite soldiers of the vassal king.

For Emperor Zhengde, it is a happy thing to see.

That's what I think about.

The sneer on the corner of Xu Yi's mouth became deeper and deeper.

There are two sides to everything. ,

'Emperor Zhengde, this calculation similar to Yang's conspiracy can alleviate the pain of the situation for a while. ,

But this will inevitably lead to the laying of a curse for the future. ,

Xu Yi's body gradually relaxed, and he muttered in a low voice in his heart.

Throughout its previous life, the successive dynasties and dynasties have cut down the feudal domain.

There is only one case of a successful feudal domain.

In Xu Yi's view, the biggest fundamental reason why he succeeded in cutting down the feudal domain without bloodshed was the strength of the central court.

The stronger the central court, the weaker the vassal king.

The weaker the central court, the stronger the vassal king.

This is an iron law.

In Xu Yi's memory, in the previous life, all dynasties except for this case of bloodless slashing of the domain.

The rest of the feudal feuds have paid an extremely painful price.

For example, Emperor Jing in the Western Han Dynasty in the previous life cut the domain, which led to the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms.

In the third year of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, Chao Cuo issued a notice in order to strengthen the centralization of power in the Western Han Dynasty.

Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty made a move to cut the feudal domain.

Therefore, it aroused strong opposition from the king of Wu, Liu Bi.

After that, Liu Bi, the king of Wu, colluded with the six kings of Jiaoxi, Chu, Zhao, Jinan, Zichuan, and Jiaodong, and raised troops to rebel under the banner of "please kill Chao Cuo, and the side of the king has been cleared."

The king of Xiang and the king of the four feudal domains.

Among them, the king of Zhou was demoted to a concubine by him and migrated to Menghua.

The king of Qi was placed under house arrest in the capital.

The Acting King was placed under house arrest in his fiefdom.

The king of Xiang was forced to burn to death in the palace.

After that, Zhu Di, the persecuted Yan King, first pretended to be sick, then pretended to be crazy, and finally persecuted Yan Wang Zhu Di to fight for the country. ,

And Emperor Jianwen finally paid an extremely heavy price for his move to cut the domain, and lost the throne, not to mention that he also ended up 'missing and ending'.

Then there was the rebellion of the three feudatories of the Qing Dynasty, which was also caused by the cutting of the feudal domains.

At the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, when the country was stolen, the three generals of the Ming Dynasty, Wu Sangui, Geng Jingzhong, and Shang Kexi, were the three feudal lords, and they guarded the southwest, south and southeast regions.

By the time of the Kang Mazi Dynasty, the three feudatories gradually became stronger, and there was a faint sense of separation.

Kang Mazi decided to cut the feudal domain, and the three feudal domains rebelled from this, and Wu Sangui led the banner of 'restoring vision, .

It will take several years to decide.

Throughout his previous life, all dynasties and dynasties, all those who did the act of cutting the feudal domain.

Except for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, because of the strength of the central court, which made the Tui'en order smoothly executed, and finally the soldiers were bloodless.

The rest of the feudal divisions, regardless of whether they succeed or not.

All of them have come at a huge cost.

In Xu Yi's view, Emperor Zhengde took advantage of the defeat in Mobei this time to secretly cut the feudal domain, and his final outcome will not be optimistic.

Especially when the central court is already weak!

That's what I think about.

Xu Yi slowly sat up straight, and looked slightly sideways at the direction where Pingcheng was located.

After staring for a moment.

The corners of Xu Yi's mouth suddenly rose slightly, revealing an incomprehensible smile.

He muttered in a low voice, "What would you do?"

The words fell.

Xu Yi slowly got up and walked out of the study in the side hall.

Enter the heart hall through the temple.

Out of the heart hall into the harem.

Then he walked towards the Changchun Hall unhurriedly.

No matter how mad Emperor Zhengde is.

will not make Xu Yi, the new vassal king, send troops to Mobei.

None of them.

In mid-May this year, Xu Yi left Beijing to settle for the domain.

The road to the feudal domain alone took a month and a half.

Finally, on the last day of June, they arrived at Yandi Fuyang City.

Since July, it has only been more than March.

A vassal king who has been in the vassal for more than three months.

A vassal king who is not familiar with the place.

A vassal king who even needed the assistance of the imperial court for war horses, armaments, and other things. ….

No matter how wise and close to the demon is, how powerful can it be?

If even such a vassal king ordered him to send troops.

God knows how future generations will evaluate Emperor Zhengde when they read this historical book.

Therefore, Xu Yi was never worried that there would be one of the vassal kings who sent troops to Mobei this time.

......

......

"Slave maid to meet the prince."

"Meet the Lord."

"Slave maid to meet the prince."

The night is getting darker.

Xu Yi walked slowly in the brightly lit harem with his hands on his back.

Along the way, the palace maids frolicked and played under the lanterns.

It can be seen that under the governance of Wang Qiujin, the harem of King Yan's Mansion is also happy compared to other places.

After seeing Xu Yi return, Fang Cai bowed and saluted in a panic.

After Xu Yi nodded slightly, he didn't say much, and then walked slowly past the palace maid.

In his opinion, there is nothing wrong with Wang Qiujin's governance.

Who said that the harem of the vassal king must be strictly disciplined and even lifeless?

If even the habitat is lifeless, then what is the joy of life?

Xu Yi walked leisurely to the front of the Changchun Hall with his hands on his back.

Fang Yi stepped into the brightly lit Changchun Palace.

The snort instantly melts into a surging aroma.

Wang Qiujin, who was leaning on the chair of the first master in the main hall and was drowsy, woke up instantly after hearing the sound of footsteps.

After seeing the appearance of the person who came.

A smile instantly appeared on Wang Qiujin's face.

"You're back." Wang Qiujin slowly stepped forward with a smile on her face, and then said softly, "Hungry, right? I'm going to serve the fish."

Xu Yi nodded slightly, then took Wang Qiujin's soft little hand, and said softly, "You and I will go together."

Wang Qiujin's body paused slightly, and then her face turned slightly red and whispered, "Okay."

Seeing this, the corners of Xu Yi's mouth couldn't help but smile.

Then he took Wang Qiujin's meat and gently walked slowly to the kitchen of the side hall.

As the kitchen door of the side hall was slowly pushed open by Xu Yi.

A slightly sweet smell of fish rushed straight towards Xu Yi and the others.

A tender and delicious carp was warming a tender carp on the stove not far away.

The smell emanated from the stove.

"Braised carp?"

Xu Yi looked sideways slightly at Wang Qiujin, who was holding his small hand beside him.

At a glance, I saw that Wang Qiujin's originally slightly red face turned slightly white.

And on the pretty face, the brows couldn't help frowning.

"What's wrong? Isn't it uncomfortable?"

Xu Yi panicked slightly when he saw this, and then hurriedly asked.

Wang Qiujin's face turned slightly pale when she heard this, her brows furrowed, and she stretched out her other hand and waved her hand slightly to indicate that she was fine.

Don't wait for Xu Yi to continue to speak.

"Gross."

Wang Qiujin suddenly turned her head away.

Then he hid his face with his other free hand and vomited.

Seeing this, Xu Yi hurriedly let go of Wang Qiujin's soft little hand.

Then gently patted Wang Qiujin's back.

"Are you feeling better?"

"If it's better, I'll go and find someone, go to the good doctor's office, and ask the doctor to come over."

Xu Yi gently patted Wang Qiujin on the back, and said with nervous concern.

"Good...... It's better."

Wang Qiujin waved her hand slightly and replied silently.

"Let's go to the dormitory to rest for a while, and I'll go to Tan'er to the good doctor immediately." ….

Hearing this, Xu Yi moved very lightly and lifted Wang Qiujin's arm.

Xu Yi, who was full of nervousness, didn't notice that Wang Qiujin was just retching and didn't really spit out anything.

"None...... It's all right."

Wang Qiujin slowly got up with Xu Yi's support.

Then his face turned slightly pale and said, "I don't know what's going on, it's fine when I'm cooking, just after smelling the fragrance of braised carp."

"It's like I've knocked over countless bottles and cans in my stomach, and I just want to vomit."

"But I can't spit out anything."

The words fell.

Xu Yi walked towards the dormitory with Wang Qiujin in his arms.

Bian said softly: "You have a good rest first, I will go to find Tan'er, and let him go to the good doctor to find the divine doctor Sun."

Hearing this, Wang Qiujin looked back at Xu Yi with difficulty.

I wanted to say nothing more.

As a result, after seeing Xu Yi's face full of nervousness and worry.

Forcefully swallowed the words that were about to blurt out back into his stomach.

He has known Xu Yi since he met.

I've never seen such a nervous side of it.

"Okay."

Wang Qiujin nodded slightly and responded softly.

After Wang Qiujin was helped to the dormitory of Changchun Palace.

Xu Yi immediately rushed out of the side hall of Changchun Hall with lightning speed.

Immediately, he rushed out of the Changchun Hall at an extremely fast speed, and rushed towards the palace maid's residence not far away.

At this moment, Xu Yi reunited after many years

I learned what it means to be flustered.

"Tan'er! Hurry up and go to the Good Doctor's Office and invite Doctor Sun to the Changchun Palace!"

When Xu Yifang and his entourage arrived at the palace maid's residence, they quickly paused and said loudly.

The palace maids who had not yet slept in the palace maid's residence quickly came out of their residence when they heard this.

When the people are about to salute.

was completely interrupted by Xu Yi's loud shout.

"Hurry up and go to the Good Doctor's Office and ask Doctor Sun to come to the Changchun Palace!"

The words fell.

Xu Yi quickly turned around and returned to the Changchun Palace.

As for the palace maid who came out of the palace maid's residence, there was Wang Qiujin's personal maid Tan'er.

For Xu Yi, it doesn't matter.

The important thing is that someone can go and invite the Sun Divine Doctor to the Changchun Hall as quickly as possible.

Iced tea is always there
