In this era, the earth wrapped in white grass was granted to the feudal, symbolizing the granting of land and power. take aim at

Now, Bo Biao proposed to divide the princes of Qingji to integrate the counties up and down the Wu Kingdom, is it reliable?

Before Qingji could speak, Prime Minister Zuo Wen Chong looked angry, stood up and said, "Ridiculous!"

"The king, what Cheng said in the imperial history is really the great Miao of the world!"

"Since the reform of the Great King's reform, my Wu State has banned the feudal lords, and the local county system has been implemented, and it is Ji Zi, Sun Tzu, and Wu Zi who have made great contributions to the Great Wu, and they only enjoy food and food, but not an inch of fiefdom!"

"If the king reinstates the feudal king, and the territory is sealed to the princes, won't it repeat the mistakes of the past, make the place bigger, and the power in the court smaller?"

"The fiefdom of the princes is equivalent to the fiefdom of the country. The king is still alive, if the king is born, the princes will definitely support their own troops, divide one side, or make my Wu country scattered in the same form!"

"Please King Mingjian!" take aim at

Hearing this, Bo snorted and said, "Prime Minister Zuo's words are wrong!"

"The ancients split the land and divided the grass to repay the merits of the people and ministers, so that their descendants would inherit them, so they would reward their ancestors and hang their descendants."

"My country of Wu now implements the county system, and the power of the county guard and the county order is very great, but how can they win the hearts of the people and quell the trouble?"

"The territory of Great Wu is vast, and the population has exceeded 10 million. And in the meantime, there are many remnants of other countries, and the tribes are different!"

"At least six hundred, large and small tribes!"

"If the hearts of the people are not convinced, how can they be educated? If there is a rebellion, how can it be quelled?"

"Only when the princes split the soil, act on behalf of the king, sit in various places, and follow the royal road, can they prevent the slightest slight!" take aim at

This assertion of Bo Bai is not unreasonable.

The current population of Wu has exceeded 10 million, there are many tribes, and the land area is too large.

How to digest those new Li Shu has become Qingji's biggest headache.

This is also the most difficult thing for Wu Guo today.

Relying on the governance of those county guards and county orders can only be slowly figured out.

Once a local rebellion breaks out, troops must be dispatched from Jinling, which is time-consuming and laborious, and there is a possibility of a resurgence of rebellion.

If Qingji divides the princes to sit in the town, it is different. take aim at

As feudal monarchs, they have the right to levy soldiers, levy taxes, and administrative powers, except that they do not have diplomatic and legislative powers.

In this way, if a local rebellion breaks out, the princes can send troops nearby to suppress it at any time, without having to wait for Wu to send troops on its own......

It is worth mentioning that the implementation of the county system was something that Qingji did at the beginning of the law change.

If it is overthrown at this time and the feudal monarchy system is reinstated, wouldn't it be inconsistent and slap yourself in the face?

The most important thing is that once Qingji divides the princes, the existing power of the Wu State is bound to be dispersed, which is not conducive to the concentration of royal power.

Qingji's lifetime is fine, after all, none of the sons dare to disobey their father's orders.

If the crown prince Heng inherits the unification in the future, how can the princes not do things? take aim at

The matter of splitting the territory and sealing the territory to the princes has both advantages and disadvantages for the Wu State.

The advantage is that it saves worry and effort, so that Wu can quickly digest the new population.

The disadvantage lies in the fact that each place becomes bigger, which is not conducive to great unification.

"There is no need to discuss the matter of splitting the territory and sealing the territory to the princes. Widow ...... Not really."

Qingji made this decision.

"The king is wise!"

The ministers couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief and hurriedly agreed. take aim at

After all, the Chinese countries have not yet been unified, and if Qingji is in a hurry to divide the princes and divide the territory and seal the territory, wouldn't it be possible for the Wu State to fall into civil strife or even the danger of falling apart?

Seriously, between the county system and the sub-feudal system, Qingji is still more optimistic about the sub-feudal system.

No, to be precise, it's the "parallel system of counties and states".

Throughout the history of the dynasties, the implementation of the feudal system

There are Western Han Dynasty, Western Jin Dynasty, and Ming Dynasty.

However, its nature is different from that of the pre-Qin period.

The Shang Dynasty had begun to divide the princes, with titles such as Hou and Bo.

After King Wu of Zhou destroyed the Shang Dynasty, because his capital was far away in the northwest, which was not conducive to controlling the vast territory and ruling the descendants of the Shang Dynasty, he rewarded the royal children and meritorious heroes with fiefs and residents on a large scale. take aim at

The princes enjoyed hereditary rule in their fiefdoms, and also had the responsibility to obey the orders of the Son of Heaven, pay regular tribute, provide military and forced labor, and maintain the safety of the Zhou Dynasty.

In the subsequent feudal system, the feudal king either had the right to lead troops, or had administrative power, or enjoyed territory, and took the county as the country......

The magnitude of power and power cannot be compared.

There is always a kind of cycle in history, like an endless loop.

The Zhou royal family divided the princes, which led to the princes' struggle for hegemony and finally collapsed.

Qin Shi Huang learned this lesson and implemented the county system, but the great Qin Dynasty died and was almost powerless to fight back.

Because the Ying clan has no power in their hands, no soldiers and horses, what can they do to defend the rivers and mountains of Great Qin? take aim at

Therefore, Liu Bang, who established the Han Dynasty, learned a lesson and divided the clan relatives who were related to him as princes and kings, and the local implementation of the parallel system of counties and states.

Then, Wei, Shu and Wu stood on three legs, and the Three Kingdoms returned to Jin.

Sima Yan, Emperor Wu of the Jin Dynasty, believed that a very important reason for the lack of longevity of the Cao Wei regime was the lack of protection of the clan domain.

Therefore, Sima Yan made the children of the same sect the king, and took the county as the country, and then continued to expand the power of the kings of the clan, resulting in the "Rebellion of the Eight Kings"!

As for why Zhu Yuanzhang drove the retrogressive car of history to divide the seal, it was probably to prevent the military power from falling and not trusting outsiders......

If Qingji establishes a unified empire, it is estimated that the princes will be divided, but it is impossible to consider sealing the country in the domain.

If his sons wanted to be feudal, they had to expand their territory and occupy the wilderness, and then become self-reliant. take aim at

Wuhua Zhuxia!

Such an idea had already arisen in Qingji's mind.

"Great king, I wonder what the king intends to keep for those more than 30,000 Persian prisoners of war?"

Dazai asked.

"Transferred to Shudi, and cooperate with the merchants to dig Dujiangyan."

"No."

Ji Ran shook his head and said, "The king, the minister always thinks that the matter of Dujiangyan should not be rushed." take aim at

"After all, the Dujiangyan project is in Shudi. Shu is just a vassal state of my Great Wu, once Dujiangyan is completed, and the Shu people benefit immensely, my Wu State can't take the Shu land, isn't it cheap for the Shu people in vain?"

Hearing this, Qing Ji smiled faintly and said, "Wu Shu's family, regardless of each other. Dazai, sooner or later, the Kingdom of Shu will be in the pockets of the widows, and sooner or later it will become a county of my Kingdom of Wu."

For the ambition of encroaching on the land of Shu, Qingji is obvious.

Without mincing matters!

The project of Dujiangyan cannot be completed without three or five years.

Qingji didn't believe that Wu would not be able to annex Shu at that time.

"Alas!" take aim at

Seeing Qingji's insistence on helping the Shu people build Dujiangyan, Ji Ran couldn't help but sigh and felt helpless.
