Chapter 270: The Trees Are Quieter and the Wind Doesn't Stop!

King of Shonan, King Qisi?

These two people are also involved?

King Qi Si is nothing, although he is also his cousin, but this lord's father was his old rival Zhao Chongyuan in the competition for the throne.

is also Zhao Chongyuan's strongest opponent on the throne.

Since ancient times, the throne has not been the current primogeniture inheritance system, but the establishment of virtuous people rather than the elders.

To put it simply, whoever has the biggest fist can be the emperor.

Although the consequence of this has allowed the Great Cadres to establish the country for 300 years, it has also caused the Great Cadres to continue to fight in the same room since Taizong.

Brothers kill each other, fathers kill sons abound.

In addition to such a unique lord as his own old man, well, in the words of the previous life, he was the wrong emperor, so he tried his best to disagree with the public, and dragged the officials of the Ministry of Rites to kill the three Confucians, which abolished the system that had been maintained for more than 300 years, and changed the primogeniture inheritance system, so as to put an end to the situation of the royal family.

And in order to show mercy, after ascending the throne, not only did he not show up to his former rivals on the throne, but also promised the father of King Qi Si, the old King of Qi, a high-ranking official, beautiful gold and silver.

Although he was not given military power, he was enriched all his life.

If you want to blame the King of Qi, that is, the imperial uncle of Zhao Ding's own, has a short life, otherwise he may be able to jump around like the current Prince Li.

And after the death of the king of Qi, the prince naturally became his son's successor.

That is, today's King Qi Si --- Zhao Kang.

As for the other king of Shonan, it is even more difficult.

His father, King Xiang, was not only the brother of Zhao Chongyuan's mother, but also the right-hand man who helped Zhao Chongyuan ascend the throne, even after Zhao Chongyuan ascended the throne.

The king of Xiang is still doing his best.

It can be said that Zhao Chongyuan was able to reverse the ills of the previous dynasty in less than 20 years, and now he still has the strength to deal with the tumor family that no one dared to move for 300 years.

Half of the source of this confidence was given by this Hunan prince.

And this Hunan prince also ended up dying young in the end.

There is no way, it is not an overnight achievement to get rid of the rule of officials and reverse the accumulated shortcomings of the previous dynasty, and it is almost impossible not to fight for a life if you want to cut through the chaos quickly and continue the luck of the great cadres for another hundred years.

For example, the Yongzheng Emperor of the Wild Boar Skin Dynasty in the previous life.

It is said that Kangqian is prosperous.

As everyone knows, most of the credit for this so-called prosperous Kangqian era was created by the person who was missing in the prosperous Kangqian era.

He reigned for thirteen years, worked diligently, did not dare to rest for a day, got up earlier than a chicken and slept later than a dog.

Hard-boiled himself to death.

In a popular sentence on the Internet in later generations, it took thirteen years to repay Lao Tzu's debts for 60 years, and to repay the money he saved for his son for 60 years.

Spread into the mu, the fire consumption returned to the public, and the gentry paid the grain in one.

These three measures directly did what Zhang Juzheng, a strong man in the Ming Dynasty, wanted to do all his life.

In one fell swoop, the poll tax that had been in China for thousands of years was abolished, reducing the burden on the common people and causing China's population to grow explosively.

Whether it's Mingjun or not, he Zhao Ding doesn't know, but he Zhao Ding can only say one awesome!

As for the other eleven emperors of the wild boar skin, Zhao Ding could only say that they were the emperors of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, not the emperors of China!

Whether it is Kang in the prosperous era of Kangqian, or the son who is known as "Shiquan".

It's all the same!

Especially his son, who is known as the "Ten Perfect", directly closed off the country, and suffered the most tragic humiliation in his previous life, Huaxia!

And again, again.

He Zhao Ding that his Lao Tzu can do this step today.

The merits of King Xiang are also comparable to that of the old thirteen!

It's a bit tricky!

Zhao Ding muttered to himself.

For his own Lao Tzu, he Zhao Ding understands it from the bottom of his heart.

Emphasis on family affection, especially between royal families.

If this is not the case, after ascending the throne, he will not be in a hurry to abolish the establishment of meritocracy when the foundation is not yet stable, resulting in the royal family fighting and fratricidal, this culprit.

Now if you let your old son know that the only son of King Xiang is involved.

He Zhao Ding really didn't know what his old man would do.

Not killing is not enough to make the people angry, and it is even more ruined the prestige of Zhao Chongyuan's rule of law that he has established for so many years, but if he is killed, how can he be worthy of the hands and feet that have worked hard for his throne and consumed himself alive, his brother Lao Xiangwang?

Especially this king of Xiangnan was raised by Zhao Chongyuan, and it is even more difficult to start!

After all, the emperor is also a human being!

"Lord Wang? Rajah? ”

Seeing Zhao Ding pondering on the side, Zhang San couldn't help but shout two words.

"Who else knows about the things that King Shonan is involved in, except for you?"

Zhao Ding's expression was slightly gloomy, and he asked.

"And the bulls don't fight."

Zhang San replied subconsciously.

"Keep this in your stomach."

Zhao Ding's face was slightly cold.

According to his Zhao Ding's thoughts, it is natural that not killing is not enough to anger the people, and not killing is not enough to establish justice, especially at the juncture of reforming the imperial examination.

Troubled times with heavy canons!

Compassion does not lead soldiers, righteousness does not raise wealth, kindness does not serve as officials, affection does not stand up for affairs, and benevolence does not engage in politics.

That's what I'm talking about.

Merit is merit, and passing is excessive!

The king of Hunan should be rewarded for his merits, and the king of Xiangnan should be punished!

The merits and demerits do not offset each other!

But it was his idea, not his father's idea.

Hard!

Zhao Ding stood in place with a frown, his eyes were gloomy.

……

Meanwhile.

In the palace.

Outside the Heart Cultivation Palace.

Zhou Shan was dressed in plain linen, his crown was scattered, and he knelt in front of the Heart Nourishing Palace.

Behind him.

There are also two figurely tied up on their knees.

One of them is Wang Xi, and the other is Zhou Xing!

At this moment, both of them knelt outside the hall with five flowers, and beside them were the housekeepers and attendants of the Zhou Mansion.

And behind the two, there are many figures with unfamiliar faces.

These are all party officials who participated in this matter.

is either Wang Xi's comrade, or he is the personal servant of Zhou Xing in the west room of the Zhou Mansion.

At this moment, everyone was escorted and knelt outside the Heart Cultivation Palace.

"Minister, if you don't govern your family strictly, if you don't rule your subordinates strictly, your ministers deserve death."

Zhou Shan's face was solemn, and he bowed to the white marble bricks outside the Heart Cultivation Palace.

Every worship is a heavy head on the ground.

After a while, Zhou Shan's forehead was already covered with blood.

But even so, it didn't stop.

At this moment, Zhou Shan's surroundings were already full of heavily armed palace guards, and as long as Zhao Chongyuan gave an order, he would directly take down Zhou Shan and the others.

Wang Lishi stood aside with a cold expression, without even looking at Zhou Shan, but his eyes couldn't stop drifting towards the heart cultivation hall with the door closed at this moment.

That's where Zhao Chongyuan is.

It is also the residence of the Son of Heaven.

But now Zhao Chongyuan drove everyone out and locked himself in the room alone.

Half an hour has passed since Zhou Shan took Wang Xi and Zhou Xing to the palace to plead guilty.

But in the Heart Cultivation Palace, no word came out!

The quieter the tree is, the more windy it is!
