Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Three Treasures of Jianwen
Qi Tai pursed his lips after hearing this.
"His Royal Highness the King of Liao, why can't you tell the situation clearly? Xia Guan will analyze His Highness again, even King Yan will not be able to escape the fate of cutting the domain in the end! ”
"When His Majesty went to Beiping to inspect, the soldiers of Beiping were so unsightly, and you have heard a little about Your Highness, not to mention that when Emperor Xingzong died, I was Emperor Gao, the Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, and I had hesitated in His Royal Highness the Taisun and His Royal Highness King Yan."
"Speaking of which, among the vassal kings, the most important thing to deal with and the first thing to deal with is King Yan, according to the meaning of the lower officials, the first one to cut is King Yan, but who made His Royal Highness King Han make such a big move in the north, this is also a good start."
"In short, what kind of sectarian order is in King Yan's hand, His Royal Highness doesn't have to worry about it at all, the sectarian order is not given by His Majesty? Your Majesty can take it back at any time, but it's not yet time to see the poor dagger. ”
Hearing this, King Liao pondered for a moment, then grabbed Qi Tai and asked, "Lord Qi, if I am willing to help Your Majesty bite King Han to death, will I be able to be safe?" ”
Qi Tai patted King Liao's hand.
"Your Highness, this is natural, Your Highness's loyal majesty will see it, in the future, His Highness will not have to go to the bitter cold place outside the Saiwai, Jiangnan is so rich, it can be called a paradise on earth, in the future, His Highness will be a rich and chic idle prince in Jiangnan, wouldn't it be better?"
King Liao opened his mouth, he already knew that it was imperative for the imperial court to cut the domain, and he also faintly realized that this reduction of the domain definitely did not mean that it was as simple as cutting military power, I am afraid that His Majesty has greater plans today.
"Lord Qi, this king knows, this king will play tomorrow, in the twist and turn, this king will definitely bite the king of Han to death, just say that he intends to rebel, this king did not set up a heavy army in Guangning to prevent him from going south to return to Beijing, he clearly wanted to cause trouble in the world when Emperor Taizu Gao died!"
After hearing this, Qi Tai smiled with satisfaction and took the hand of King Liao.
"Your Highness, that's right, Your Highness is a good student to assist Your Majesty, maybe after the incident of cutting the feudal domain has passed, Your Highness may be able to stay in the center of the court as an official!"
The King of Liao is no longer in charge of any officials at the moment, as long as he doesn't cut his title, don't degrade himself to a concubine, even if he has no military power in his hands, he waits for the court to issue a salary every year, and it is already a happy thing in the world to be an idle prince who can be a carefree and idle prince.
Qi Tai returned to the palace with satisfaction and reported to His Majesty Emperor Jianwen.
Jianwen nodded with satisfaction after hearing this,
"Not bad, the fifteenth uncle is quite obedient, the three Aiqing, I have already sent Sheng Yong to Kaiyuan, he has already done everything he needs to do at this moment, it is estimated that he is already on the way back, King Han has already dealt with it, who should be dealt with next?"
The other arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that we should start to start with those hard bones, such as King Yan of Beiping." ”
When Huang Zicheng heard this, he immediately jumped out to object: "Your Majesty, it is absolutely impossible to start from King Yan, when the first emperor was alive, the first king had several crusades against Mobei, and the greatest contribution was to surrender the tribe led by Wang Baobao and Taiwei Nai'er Buhua. ”
"Your Majesty, even if you want to cut the domain, you should also start with King Yan, don't say that the vassal kings everywhere are unconvinced, even if there are many generals in the court, King Yan will be unhappy."
Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng had their own opinions, and at this time, the key suggestion fell on Fang Xiaoru.
Emperor Jianwen looked at Fang Xiaoru.
"Fang Aiqing, can you tell me whether I should listen to Qi Aiqing's opinion or Huang Aiqing's opinion next?"
Fang Xiaoru pondered for a moment, and arched his hand: "Back to Your Majesty, in the opinion of the minister, the minister agrees with Lord Huang Zicheng's suggestion, and should start with those vassal kings who have committed illegal things. ”
"This time, these vassal kings who committed illegal things were cut down, which is in line with the law and reasonable, and these two are to start from these vassal kings who have no military power in their hands, and they can also give a wake-up call to those vassal kings who have military power in their hands, if they want to honestly keep their wealth, they will happily hand over the military power in their hands, and when all the military power of those vassal kings is handed over, only King Yan is left, and he can only face two roads."
"The first is to either hand over the military power and keep his glory and wealth, and the second is not to hand over the military power, that is, to rebel, and the court can use this reason to crusade against King Yan!"
"Your Majesty, the other vassal kings are easy to say, you can not put them to death, but this Yan King, Your Majesty must put him to death!"
Jianwen thought about it, since Fang Xiaoru was also in favor of starting with other vassal kings first, so be it.
"Then according to what Aiqing said, start with other vassal kings first, after thinking about it, King Zhou has no military power in his hands, and he has nothing outstanding, so if you know how to study the prescription, then start with him, and I will also see how the other vassal kings react."
Fang Xiaoru arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty Shengming!" ”
At this moment, a eunuch hurriedly walked in with a fold in his hand.
"Your Majesty, General Sheng Yong's recital."
Jianwen was stunned after hearing this.
"Sheng Yong, he didn't do a good job of copying my twentieth uncle's house in Kaiyuan, what kind of memorabilia did he write for me?"
Jianwen hooked his fingers as he spoke, and the eunuch presented the fold.
Jianwen took the fold and opened it to look at it, and immediately frowned, and snapped the fold shut.
The Jianwen Sanbao below looked at His Majesty like this, glanced at each other, and then Qi Tai took the lead in asking: "Your Majesty, what did General Sheng say in the recital?" ”
Jianwen said angrily: "King Han was unfortunately injured in the battle with Uliangha in Kaiyuan, and was shot by Uliangha's stray arrow, Sheng Yong said in the fold that King Han had a wound on his left shoulder that was much bigger than the wine cup, which was shocking. ”
"Originally, it was said that the king of Han was going to attack him in the name of rebellion, but now he has made war exploits in the north, and the king of Han led his troops to attack Guangning, but he only drove away the soldiers and horses of the king of Liao and arrested them, and did not attack Guangning City, but bypassed Guangning and wanted to enter the pass."
"Now Sheng Yong is in Kaiyuan City, I don't know what to do, now King Han is still in a coma, he is afraid that he will hurt King Han's body."
Jianwen said and threw the fold to the ground, Fang Xiaoru stepped forward to pick it up, took a cursory look at it, and handed it to Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng, who were looking forward to it next to him.
"Your Majesty, this can't be a reason, even if King Han defeated Uliangha, it will not help, his attack on Guangning has become a fact, this is a rebellion!"
"As for him being injured now, it is a great opportunity, if he raids the family at this moment, King Han will definitely have no power to resist! can take advantage of the situation to bring him to the heavenly hearing! ”
