Chapter 51: Sealing the King's Frontier? In fact, it is a policy to destroy the country!

"The reason why Chen Huaiyi deserves to die is because he has to tell the truth!"

Li Jin's understatement made everyone at the table change their faces.

Lan Yu looked at Li Jin in horror, daring to say this in front of the emperor, but he was afraid that no one would be able to save him.

It is estimated that even his nine clans will go down to accompany him together.

Ma Sandao looked at Li Jin in the same horror, and was about to get up and plead with Li Jin.

"Emperor..."

"Shut !! up"

Zhu Yuanzhang roared violently and directly interrupted Ma Sandao's words.

At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang's face turned red, his eyes widened, and the bloodshot continued to spread towards his pupils, staring directly at Li Jin, looking extremely scary.

After Zhu Yuanzhang saw Li Jin's twists and turns, he always thought that Li Jin was a person who could understand him, but now it seems that it was he Zhu Yuanzhang who would be wrong.

This Li Jin did not dare to tell the truth, so he echoed his meaning and wrote his thoughts.

In that case, let's take this opportunity to take a good look at what this bastard is going to say.

Zhu Yuanzhang slowly pointed to his right hand, pointed at Li Jin and said:

"Come on, how dare Chen Huaiyi tell the truth? If you don't say it well, we have to let the emperor kill you. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang's momentum was compelling, even if he was sitting opposite Zhu Yuanzhang, he felt creepy, let alone Lan Yu who was sitting next to Zhu Yuanzhang.

However, Li Jin was unaware of it, and plucked his ears fearlessly.

This Lao Huang is not good at this point, he roars at every turn, and he is simply a noisemaker.

"Speaking of Feng Wang, I am afraid that only the emperor himself will think that this is a good plan."

"For the generals, the vassal king robbed them of their jobs, and they naturally didn't like it in their hearts."

"For the ministers, the vassal king is the source of trouble, and cannot be tolerated by the ministers."

"For the common people, it is already a great burden to support the imperial court, and in the future, they will have to support the vassal kings of the domain, and the future will only be worse day by day."

"For the crown prince, these vassal kings hold military power, and they are simply a country within a country, how can they be recognized by the prince?"

"For the monarchs of the Ming Dynasty, this is even more of a strategy to destroy the country!!"

Li Changgeng's speech was deafening.

Whether it was Lan Yu and the others who were sitting, or Zhu Biao who was standing, they all looked thoughtful.

Only Zhu Yuanzhang, not only his face, but also his neck were red, and his eyes were bloodshot, as if he had been greatly stimulated.

"Nonsense, let's see that you are a lie."

"How can this king's strategy of defending the border become a policy for the future of the country?"

When Li Jin saw Zhu Yuanzhang's appearance, he sighed:

"Lao Huang, it's small!! The pattern is smaller! ”

"The current emperor has the precedent of Kaifeng king, and the kings of later generations will only follow the script and divide their children and grandchildren into feudal kings."

"The so-called children and grandchildren are endless, so many princes and grandchildren, how much should they pay every year?"

"But all these salaries will have to be supported by the imperial court, and at that time, the royal family will become a burden on the treasury."

"When these fortunes occupy most of the treasury, the imperial court will completely lose its silver to pay the army, provide disaster relief to the victims, and govern the king!"

"At that time, how long can the Ming Empire last?"

"Not only that, but when the vassal king arrives in the place, he will own the domain, but these domains will not have to pay taxes to the imperial court at all."

"With the inheritance from generation to generation, the vassal king's domain will only get bigger and bigger, and he will continue to annex land and become the largest landlord in the Ming Dynasty."

"But they don't have to pay taxes, and between this increase and decrease, the treasury will be empty of how much silver every year."

"The tax revenue of the king of the Ming Dynasty will not be reduced by half a cent because of the emptiness of the treasury, and in the end, the treasury has no income at all, what should the world do?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was choked by Li Jin, and asked rhetorically:

"This big tomorrow is so big, how many descendants can the emperor have?"

"In such a big place, how can you support these princes and grandchildren, let alone a hundred years, even if it is two hundred years?"

Li Jin frowned slightly and said:

"Lao Huang, in vain you are still a relative of the emperor, why is your vision so small?"

"Our Ming Dynasty is going to become a thousand-year-old empire, how can we see the next 100 years, 200 years?"

"At the beginning of the empire, the foundation was the most critical."

"If the emperor planted hidden dangers for the foundation of the empire at the beginning, how could the empire of the Ming Dynasty last for thousands of years?"

Li Jin directly drew a big pie for Zhu Yuanzhang, after all, as a relative of the emperor, as long as the Ming Dynasty survives, then his old Huang is naturally one of the beneficiaries.

"The thousand-year-old empire... A thousand-year empire..."

Zhu Yuanzhang kept muttering Li Jin's words in his mouth, and his eyes were a little erratic.

Seeing this, Zhu Biao next to him couldn't help but ask:

"Isn't there any merit in sealing the king's borders?"

"If the feudal king is really so bad, how can so many people agree?"

"Even Li Shanchang, the prime minister of the current dynasty, took the initiative to ask the emperor to make the king the king."

Li Jin looked at Zhu Biao, pondered for a moment and said:

"There is naturally merit in sealing the king's borders."

"For the emperor, sealing the king and defending the border is the best way to stabilize the imperial power now."

"If it is decided today, there are remnants of the Mengyuan Party in the north and south, and maybe they will make a comeback."

"Plus, the proud generals in the court."

As he spoke, Li Jin also deliberately looked at Lan Yu and the others, but in exchange for angry eyes.

"Holding military power in each hand is an unstable factor after all."

"If the prince leads the troops outside, the emperor doesn't have to worry about someone in a yellow robe and Chen Qiao mutiny."

"Don't worry about the unguarded frontier, it's like killing two birds with one stone."

"It's just that the royal power will affect the imperial power after all, and the emperor, as the founding king, will naturally be able to firmly suppress these vassal kings."

"But in the next generation, once the emperor is weak and incompetent, the vassal king will take over the throne and civil strife will break out."

"But it depends on the current prince!"

After Li Jin finished speaking, everyone was silent.

Lan Yu and the others looked at Zhu Yuanzhang nervously, just as Li Jin analyzed just now, as the nobles of Huaixi, they were naturally arrogant and domineering.

However, they relied on the emperor's favor, but what Li Jin said just now was to tell them that the emperor had begun to be suspicious of them.

This made them suddenly feel a little uneasy.

Zhu Yuanzhang finally came to his senses at this time, as Li Jin said just now, the most important function of the king is to consolidate his old Zhu family.

This is crucial, so he will never change his mind.

But if the feudal king has such a great impact on future generations, then he still needs to think carefully and cannot fully implement it according to his own ideas.

"Then in your opinion, how can you improve this king to get the best of both worlds?"
