Chapter 32: Cutting the Domain
Today, the name of the King of Han moves the world.
Whether it is a woodcutter in the market or a literati, they are all discussing the prestige of His Royal Highness the King of Han.
I have to say that Emperor Fengjing is also well-intentioned.
Daebong is not weak now.
Instead, the princes of the country are lined up, and the sand is scattered.
When it came to conquering the world, these princes were brothers.
But when sitting in the world, these former brothers are not of the same heart.
Some people are even a country within a country, and Emperor Fengjing is sick in his later years, so he doesn't know how to change the current situation.
Fortunately, today's big victory, Emperor Fengjing has never been so happy in recent years.
The banquet at Weiyang Palace was held for several hours.
At that time, the banquet continued.
According to the usual routine, many people are sleeping at this time.
"Your Highness, I will give me a lot of advice in the future..."
"His Royal Highness the King of Han, your poems have made the old man breathtaking, if you have the opportunity, I hope that His Royal Highness the King of Han will give you some advice..."
"Your Highness, you are really my great blessing..."
"Your Highness, my daughter has just reached adulthood this year, and I heard that His Highness is still short of bed-warming maids, so it's better to..."
Many Wenchen generals threw olive branches to Guo Tianyi.
They also feel that the future of His Royal Highness the King of Han is limitless, but most of these people are undesirable among their relatives, and they can't shake the basic situation of their relatives and the Wei Wang Party.
But Guo Tianyi doesn't think so, since someone flatters him, he will not refuse to come.
At today's banquet, the most unhappy thing is the King of Wei and the Wei Wang Party.
King Wei drank wine the whole time.
I only hope that the banquet will end soon.
As for King Zhou, since he is only fifteen years old this year, he does not have the right to participate in politics and banquets, but he is a loyal supporter of King Wei.
The other princes are also small.
There are no rights even more.
"Your Majesty, the old minister has a play." When the monarch and the ministers were enjoying themselves, Taiwei Wang Yuan came out of the ranks.
"What is Wang Aiqing's performance?" Emperor Fengjing was also a little drunk, and said with a red face.
"Your Majesty."
"Today's big victory depends on His Royal Highness the King of Han, if it weren't for His Royal Highness the King of Han, I would definitely suffer a big loss this time."
"The minister thought that I was far superior to the state of Wu, but I was forced by the state of Wu, and the fundamental reason was that there were many princes in the country, so..."
"The minister begs His Majesty to cut the domain!"
As he spoke, Wang Yuan took out the bamboo slips he had prepared and handed them to Emperor Fengjing by Wei An.
In the Weiyang Palace, the ministers smiled one after another.
Everyone knows that Wang Yuan has always had the idea of cutting the domain.
But how easy is it to cut the feudal domain?
Indeed, as Wang Yuan said, if the princes of Dafeng were all dispatched by the imperial court, how could Wu take advantage of the situation?
Of course, there are also reasons for the rapid development of Wu Guo's reform in recent years.
"Good fellows."
Guo Tianyi's pupils shrank, and he said secretly, "Are you coming?" ”
According to the information he knows, Wang Yuan, a legalist boss, has been advocating the reduction of the domain.
However, the policy of cutting feudal domains was proposed later.
Unexpectedly, it was because of the butterfly effect caused by his own appearance that this day came so early.
Once the cutting of the feudal domain begins, it is to affect the whole body.
The rebellion of the Daebong princes is coming.
And inevitably the dead man.
Because the princes were in rebellion, many people died.
According to what he knew, the king of Wei would also be carved out a fief during the period of cutting the feudal domain, and he was also the most powerful contender for imperial power, to establish a huge network of influence with his relatives.
The final result was that the reduction of the feudal domain was not carried out completely, and the power of the Wei king was supported by the princes and relatives, and it grew rapidly.
But in the end, they all made a wedding dress for King Zhou.
The situation is still not good for you?
Fortunately, he has opened up the relationship between Guo Susu.
With Guo Susu's support, the old queen mother also received support.
Many of the programs work out smoothly.
"I see."
"Adjournment!"
After Emperor Feng Jing glanced at Wang Yuan's bamboo slips, the smile on his face disappeared, and he got up and left directly.
"Congratulations to my emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live..."
The civil and military officials hurriedly got up and knelt on the mountain and shouted long live, and no one dared to continue eating and drinking.
"Your Highness, Your Majesty is invited."
Guo Tianyi was already a little drunk, and as soon as he got up, Wei An came to his side and said loudly.
"Okay."
Guo Tianyi nodded, said goodbye to the military generals who were surrounded by him, and quickly came to the imperial study.
"Son-in-law, see father."
"Sit down and talk."
Emperor Feng Jing pointed to the stool in front of the dragon case.
"Thank you, Father."
Guo Tianyi didn't say anything, and sat in front of the dragon case.
"Yi'er, take a look."
As he spoke, Emperor Feng Jing threw the bamboo slips that Wang Yuan had just handed over to Guo Tianyi.
For Guo Tianyi, Emperor Fengjing is very fond of him.
In the past, he would definitely not discuss this kind of thing with the prince, not even the crown prince.
But now Guo Tianyi impresses him.
Especially the matter of lifting the crown, Emperor Fengjing saw Guo Tianyi's potential clearly.
The reckless man can only lift one tripod.
And in Guo Tianyi's body, he saw endless wisdom.
This kind of wisdom can lift the country and the society.
"Yes, Father."
Guo Tianyi opened Wang Yuan's strategy, and what caught his eye was the three big characters of "Cutting the Domain".
As Guo Tianyi continued to watch, he also glanced at Wang Yuangao a few times in his heart.
is worthy of being a legalist boss.
This "Cutting Strategy" is said to have a nose and an eye.
And there is great possibility.
To put it simply, Wang Yuan was ready for Emperor Fengjing to promulgate strict laws in the name of the Son of Heaven.
And then it goes to the whole country.
Then send someone to collect the evidence of the princes' crimes.
Thus cutting the feudal domain by forceful means.
For example, whose princes robbed the people's daughters, whose princes illegally annexed land, whose princes were corrupt and disregarded people's lives, and so on...
Strictly govern the country, the law is supreme, and those who violate the law must be prosecuted.
It does seem to be feasible.
But this is also one of the reasons that directly led to the rebellion of the princes.
Legalism also occupies a very important dominant position in ancient Chinese history, and the ruling class likes to use the so-called "benevolent government" of Confucianism to achieve the role of fooling the people when governing the country, but prefers Legalism when safeguarding its own rule and class interests.
In this way, society can continue to develop in a stable environment, and Legalism plays a pivotal role.
In fact, Legalism is a tool of class social rule, and this is true in the slave era, the feudal era, and the era of capital modernization.
"Father, my son's ministers have finished reading it."
After Guo Tianyi took a deep breath, he put the "Cutting Domain" back on the dragon case.
He already knew what Emperor Fengjing's biggest worry was.
At the same time, I also have better plans in my mind.
"Oh?"
"Yi'er, what do you think?"
Emperor Fengjing looked at Guo Tianyi and said slowly.
"Father." Guo Tianyi said respectfully, "Wang Yuan's strategy does not seem to have any problems, but when it is implemented, it will cause a strong backlash. ”
"Therefore."
"Erchen has a better strategy, and the soldiers can solve the problem of the princes in the country not obeying orders."
Hearing the sound, Emperor Fengjing's eyes flashed, and he breathed quickly, "Yi'er, tell me quickly, what's the plan?" ”
