Tang Shunzhi said very clearly, touching the scales.

It's okay to let the princes who will divide the foreign domains in the future be subject to the Ming garrison.

The main problem is that once the military council and the Ming military become the ballast stone of stability between the entire clan states in the future, their interests cannot be ignored even by the emperor and the ministers.

Moreover, the general staff of the Military Council already has the practice of serving as a civil servant. So in the future, if the civil ministers will take care of internal affairs, courtesy relations, border trade affairs, and the military will ballast the relationship between the clan and the vassals, if the civil and military ministers of the Ming Dynasty have a consensus, then what can the Zhu family relatives such as the sons of the Ming Dynasty and the lords of the countries do?

He Yan Song was shot by Xia Yan and Tang Shunzhi! He is a very popular candidate for the future general assistant, and his son is afraid that he will also be the head of the Japanese garrison generals who will have a very high demand in the future!

Putting forward such a general strategy that may make the emperor's future descendants be jointly set up by the civil and military ministers, how dare Tang Shunzhi be so bold to point out the problem?

Yan Song secretly glanced at the emperor's face, only to see the emperor frowning and gently tapping his fingers on the imperial case.

"Alright, I know your concerns, let's go back first." Zhu Houxi waved his hand, "I want to think about it all." ”

"Thank you for your majesty's magnanimity, and the minister will retire."

Tang Shunzhi made a big gift.

Leaving the Heart Nourishing Palace, the Forbidden City at night became more solemn.

Walking on the corridor between the palace walls, this time Yan Song did not talk to him easily on the surface.

But after walking to the place where he could see the Neijinshui Bridge, Yan Song finally spoke: "Yingde, you are really bold. ”

"Why did the elder of the country say this?" Tang Shunzhi opened his mouth lightly, "The elder of the country must have forgotten that His Majesty originally wanted to try out the system of the Hypocrisy in the feudal domains. ”

Yan Song's heart shook violently.

If he remembers correctly, it was Tang Shunzhi who saw His Majesty once after returning to Beijing, and His Majesty later changed his previous statement, and was ready to divide the feudal domains in a big way, implement the Ming system, and lay the foundation for the great harmony of the world.

Wasn't Tang Shunzhi the one who let the emperor and his heirs firmly control the Ming Dynasty and the feudal domains?

"Don't blame the elders. Since Your Majesty can have this thought, this time it is natural that there will be no danger at most. Tang Shunzhi looked back, paused and bent down towards the side of the Heart Cultivation Palace, "Your Majesty has a wide bosom and a far-reaching plan, and Shunzhi is beyond the reach of the dust." The general plan of the invitation is not for the selfish interests of the family, but also for the future generations of His Majesty's descendants, and His Majesty will definitely be insightful. ”

Yan Song looked at his figure and was in a trance for a while.

Truth be told, he hasn't quite figured it out yet.

In the imperial study, Zhu Houxi was still sitting on the throne and did not move.

It was a long time before he smiled dumbly.

Tang Shunzhi is really a more radical conservative than him, don't look at the righteous and awe-inspiring refutation of Zhu Houxi's hypocrisy pilot idea that day, in fact, he probably agrees with it in his heart.

In other words, it is not that recognition must be hypocritical, but that it is more reliable to recognize a strong system than to expect a wise and virtuous monarch.

If we want the world to be in harmony, we must at least be in a peaceful environment.

The army is actually prone to rage, if the future is determined both inside and outside, how to hold down this beast?

Since it is impossible to really do without the army, then we can only use interests to buy and use the system to stabilize it.

The emperor and the civil and military, the Ming and the vassals, with a set of plans that only need to change people to avoid many worst outcomes, then the great emperor, the lords of the feudal states, and the civil and military ministers have more choices.

In the past, it was just changed within the Ming Dynasty, and there was not so much room for change.

In the future, why can't it be exchanged between clans and domains?

If you think about it carefully, as long as the system is the same and the criteria for selection are the same, first it's just that the military generals will serve in the office, and when the foundation is laid, how can you not let the civil and military ministers all serve in the office?

In the end, he really has the foundation to become a solid land, or a certain descendant of Zhu Houxi has the ambition of complete unification, and it may not be impossible to leave him a foundation for a try.

Step by step, I tried Zhu Houxi's attitude that it was inevitable that his brothers would be on the wall.

And if his descendants don't have that kind of ambition and talent, as long as they can not toss and maintain this system, then with the full support of the military, why worry about the throne?

If you can't even arrange more space for military generals, and let Wenwu really set up the emperor, it means that his descendants are too mediocre. In that case, even if it is just a hypocrite, it is not a blessing.

But even in that state, the civil and military system of monarchs and ministers is so huge, and the division of power is not only limited to the Ming Dynasty, among the clearly divided civil and military generals, which other surname can replace the Zhu family and serve the public?

It is said that it is the Zongguo Mansion, but I am afraid that it is a higher-level "stage of court competition".

What's more, judging by Yan Song's expression when he left...... Xia Yan and Tang Shunzhi coaxed Yan Song here.

That is to tell Zhu Houxi: We will not stand with the State Hall on some bottom-line matters, you can rest assured. Tonight, we'll offend Yan Song first.

Zhu Houxi shook his head and stood up: "Yan Song, Yan Song......"

Is this the revenge of the backstab in Xia Yan's other story?

Returning to Wensuyun Palace again, the seventh Zhu Zaiyan was still waiting for Zhu Houxi to play with him and promise him Liubo.

This Liubo is a kind of table game with an early origin, the so-called game game, Bo roughly refers to Liubo, and Yi is Go.

The gameplay of Liubo is to decide how many steps to take later by throwing points. This little game gradually disappeared after the Sui and Tang dynasties, and now it is something new that Zhu Houxi borrowed from some flying chess, Monopoly and other gameplay.

In the little time he has for children, this small board game is undoubtedly a great medium.

The father and son sat on both sides, Wen Suyun was already lively and jumpy, and began to speak and point out from time to time next to Zhu Zaiyan, enjoying it.

Zhu Houxi looked at his son's excited expression, but he couldn't help but wonder in his heart.

In the future, if he is divided into a feudal country, when he is older, will he also worry that his brother Zhu Zaijang will want his nephews to take his place?

For Zhu Houxi himself, it is okay to do a thing, and everyone has an arrangement.

But just like Zhu Yuanzhang did this, there was still an old story of Zhu Dijing's difficulty. Human nature is hard to predict.

When Zhu Zaiqian succeeds to the throne in the future, he will be older and have more sons. The concubines and sons are also clamoring for arrangement, what will Zhu Zaiqian do?

Will the vassal states around the Ming Dynasty continue to be divided?

If you do it a little more desperately, and secretly do something that is the heir of the vassal country, I am afraid that it will not be possible.

Zhu Houxi absentmindedly accompanied Zhu Zaiyan to play two sets of six games, and slept with Wen Suyun that night.

But he fell asleep very late, and kept thinking about the pros and cons.

Reason told him that if there was any chaos in the future, as Tang Shunzhi and Xia Yan suggested, it would only happen in the vassal kingdom and among his children and grandchildren.

But emotionally, even if Zhu Houxi knew that the brotherhood was inevitable, it was difficult to face that possibility calmly after all.

How can his sons and grandchildren have a way to be restrained, and to have a way out and vitality?

The original idea was to replace the existing lords of the vassal states with the Zhu family clan, and to become a real monarch with complete royal power, military power, and financial power, and to form a kind of "confederation" of this era with only cultural and economic ties.

But Xia Yan and Tang Shunzhi reminded Zhu Houxi: Maybe this round of sweeping, the current generals will have a big opportunity. But after this round of sweeping, the expectations of the generals in the army will not stop, but the Ming Dynasty will probably really be able to settle down, at least for two or three generations.

At that time, the most likely to be unstable will be the army.

Zhu Houyu admitted that their considerations were very reasonable, and even Zhu Houyu himself did not want to see a situation in which Daming would have a situation of "maintaining peace for a long time and slackening armaments".

Who can guarantee that Daming will continue to develop rapidly and continue to maintain its leading position as it has in the past 20 years?

It is not an easy task to keep the army alive and maintain its stronger and stronger combat strength, and at the same time to restrain the army from going berserk.

Early the next morning, he called Lu Bing again.

"You go to Wufu to pass the decree and let them prepare, before the Wuju Palace test, those with the rank of lieutenant general and above will enter Beijing in June, and hold a military meeting in the Wuying Palace." Zhu Houxi said calmly, "There are many things to do from next year. ”

"Yes."

If it comes to the era of peace, it cannot be bought only with benefits.

The army only feeds with profits, and then it will feed monsters.

Now there are still many years before the new order around Daming is fully formed, and Zhu Houxi feels that Xia Yan and Tang Shunzhi are right to put the problem out in advance.

After Da Ming has been pushed here by himself, Zhu Houxi's next decision may lead to a completely different future.

He could only do his best to get close to the optimal solution.

In the face of the question of how to ensure stability, advanced and prosperity in the long-term future of the Ming Dynasty, how to change the vassal kingdoms is just a simple matter.

The Ming generals were hungry and thirsty.

……

Zhu Houxi is just taking precautions, but at this moment, the North Korean lord Li Yi is already facing the most fierce battle for the crown prince.

Two years ago, he proposed inner meditation, "After the order, the crowd was disturbed, and they were all terrified, and they couldn't help but cry."

His prince also "wept bitterly, and did not eat."

That time was Li Yi's test to see what would happen after the contradictions intensified.

But now, Li Yi really has this thought.

He is already fifty-four, and his health is getting worse and worse, and the battle between the big and small Yin is becoming more and more intense.

Sitting on the throne softly, Queen Wending sat aside with a sad and angry face, holding her eight-year-old biological son Li Xun in her arms.

And the twenty-seven-year-old prince Li Yi knelt in front of Li Yi, his face full of panic.

Later, Yin Ren, Wang Shizi's uncle, looked at Yin Yuanheng, the brother of Queen Wending, angrily: "The fire in the East Palace today is not an accidental change!" The king was shocked, and the subjects of the court were all apprehensive. The cause of the fire, although I don't know what to do, but the disaster is not in vain, and there will be a call! ”

"It's spread all over the inside and outside, saying that there will be a change in Yi Shu Yuanzi! But in the past seven years, how many times has the Maharaja been assassinated? The Great Monarch didn't dare to settle on the palace, panicked, and almost lost his heart, so who was behind it? Yin Yuanheng was-for-tat.

Queen Wending shed a tear at the right time and hugged her son tighter.

At this moment, in front of Li Yi are the most important people in North Korea, so he speaks extremely naked.

After the "Neizen" turmoil two years ago, the second son Li Xun was crowned the king of Qingyuan, which led to more intense contradictions between the two parties.

In fact, this battle for the crown prince has entered a white-hot stage since Queen Wending gave birth to her parents seven years ago.

At that time, Jin Anlao was still there. At that time, Yin Yuanheng's elder brother Yin Yuanlao ran to Yin Ren and said: "Now the Shilin faction suspects our two brothers, just because the son has no heir, and the king has a son-in-law. In ancient times, after the abolition of Song Renzong, their Shilin faction suspected that our brothers, as close relatives of the royal family, must soon have a plot. ”

said this kind of thing, it was originally a miserable sale, and I wanted Li Yi, who was already jealous of Jin An's old power to lean towards the government and the opposition, to see that the Shizi faction and the Shilin faction wanted to unanimously deal with the Xiao Yin brothers in this matter, put on a weak situation, and let Li Yi suppress the Shizi faction.

The supporting approach also made Queen Wending cry to Li Yi, saying that Boss Jin planned to depose her and make the prince's position more stable.

What is the allusion after the abolition of Song Renzong? Because Empress Guo at that time was elected by Song Renzong's mother without his knowledge, Empress Guo herself was also very arrogant, and Song Renzong always disliked her.

However, after the dethronement of Song Renzong, the focus was on the turbulent public opinion of the courtiers after that, especially the ensuing dispute between the prime minister and the Taiwanese officials.

Corresponding to the North Korean side, Jin Anlao will definitely support the abolished "prime minister" Quanchen, but the Taiwanese officials who opposed the abolition at that time, the Shilin faction of North Korea, will not help Queen Wending this time. In this way, wouldn't Jin Anlao be more powerful?

Jin Anlao has always used "protecting the East Palace" as a rhetoric, and his thoughts on avoiding future troubles are well known.

In that incident, Brother Xiao Yin finally succeeded in the operation, allowing Li Yi to get rid of Jin Anlao in one fell swoop.

After that, the contradiction became more obvious.

First of all, the second son Li Xun didn't dare to sleep in a fixed place since he was a child, and now there is a strange fire in the East Palace.

Li Yi's head hurt even more.

He, the prince of the king, could interpret the meaning of the book at the age of three, and at the age of five, he could read the classics fluently in front of him, and he was made the prince of the king that year. followed Li Yi at the feast, often answered fluently, was highly anticipated by the Shilin faction, and was also touted as the "Jun of Young Yao Shun".

But Li Yi is already twenty-seven years old and has no son.

Li Yi knew that there were a lot of hidden secrets, after all, the eunuchs and palace maids inside and outside the palace had been Queen Wending for more than 20 years. Why Li Yu, who was raised under the name of Queen Wending since he was a child, has no son, I'm afraid only God knows.

The year before last, I tried it with Neizen, but Li Yi didn't dare to take it at all, and even Yin Ren dissuaded him. If you don't abolish Queen Wending and don't solve the little Yin brothers, Yin Ren, who has lost the arm of Jin Anlao, will not be able to support it.

can only rely on Li Yi to make up his mind.

But Li Yi knew that it was impossible for him to abolish Queen Wending. At that time, he still wanted to live a few more years. Now, he thinks so, too.

The second son was crowned as the king, it seems that they still don't think it's enough, and now there is a bizarre fire in the East Palace.

Li Yi looked at Li Yi, and then at Li Xun in Queen Wending's arms.

The momentum is like fire and water, it is inevitable that it will come, and only one of the two of them will be able to stay.

“…… Let's check the cause of the fire first. The son of the world is frightened, let's stay first, and be relieved. ”

Li Yi opened his mouth, and Yin Ren couldn't hide his disappointment in his eyes.

Things have come to this point, and the king still can't make up his mind. Brother Xiao Yin has been unscrupulous to this point, but what can be found out by burning the East Palace?

Seeing that Li Yi only said "one or two comforts", Yin Ren knew that it was probably over.

In the Huanqing Hall of Changde Palace, where Li Yi often stays now, everyone else retreated.

"Let's all step back and let the lonely father and son talk."

Although the eunuch and palace maid who served Li Yi walked away, they did not go far.

Li Yi knew this, and said some comforting words on his lips, but his hand was dipped in the tea in the tea cup on the side, and he wrote on the paper.

He only wrote four words, and Li Yi read poetry and books, so he naturally recognized it.

looked at his father in amazement, and saw that Li Yi's eyes were meaningful and even a little urgent.

Those four words are: Shilin, Daming.

"The name of your benevolence and filial piety is known from far and near, and you have the protection of gods and Buddhas, so you don't need to be afraid."

The water on the paper was gradually drying, and tears flowed from Li Tao's eyes.

Has it all come to this point?

Indeed, since Jin Anlao was overthrown, the border trade with Daming has basically been in the hands of the Xiao Yin brothers.

With such huge interests, although they can't directly buy those generals, they can at least make them more optimistic about Queen Wending, who is standing tall in the palace, and the Xiao Yin brothers.

As for the prince of the Shilin faction? The Shilin faction has always hated their old ones the most.

Looking at the pleading expression in Li Yi's eyes, Li Yi nodded and said in a choked voice, "Erchen knows." ”

In his letter to his father, the Great Tomorrow did praise Li Tao's benevolence and filial piety.

Now he knew his father's decision: let him ask for help from Da Ming through the Shilin faction.

To save himself, to save his father, but also to save his brother.

Li Yi knew that probably only his son would succeed to the throne, and he would not harm his eight-year-old brother.

Li Mei, the elder brother, didn't he also beg for mercy and rehabilitation?

It's just that the father and son don't know that after the change of the national policy of the Ming Dynasty, the battle for the crown prince of North Korea has become more intense. The huge benefits of border trade made the faction stronger, and the internal propaganda made the Korean Shilin faction still feel that there was something to do.

In the eyes of the Korean Shilin faction, neither the big nor the small Yin is a good thing, and it is best to fight a fish and break the net, and none of them will die well.

The Ming Dynasty did not intervene in the internal disputes in North Korea, and they also protected themselves, which advanced the burning of the East Palace by two years, and also made Queen Wending and the Xiao Yin brothers more radical.

So much so that Li Yi already felt that his life and safety were greatly threatened.

He now wants his son to ask Da Ming for help, but he doesn't know what this decision will lead to.

On the Ming side, times have changed.
