Chapter 147: Reprimand

The dragon will raise its head and look at the majestic city in front of it.

Every time I come to the Central Plains, I will be extremely shocked by the Dragon Society.

Especially this time, the changes in the Central Plains are a little too great, the smooth roads, the neat cities, and the endless cultivated land make the Dragon Society feel a little stunned.

It was the officials of the Ministry of Rites who came to greet the Dragon Society.

Pei Xiu didn't come in person, but just sent a Lang official to come.

"Shizi."

Lang Guan smiled and saluted.

Before officially accepting the emperor's canonization, the Dragon Society was only a prince and could not be called king.

Although the dragon society didn't like this title a little in his heart, he didn't dare to show it.

This is not Shazhou.

But the Dragons are not worried that they will not be able to inherit the throne.

Their father and son had a good relationship with the emperor, and his father often exchanged letters with the emperor, and the relationship was close, and even he could get some gifts from the emperor from time to time.

In this civil war, he can be regarded as a famous teacher.

The Dragon Club led Lang Guan into the city, and Lang Guan arranged for him to be placed in a courtyard of the Ministry of Rites, which was specially used to entertain those foreign guests.

It is such a courtyard for receiving guests, which is much more luxurious than the royal palace of Yanqi Kingdom.

The palace of Yanqi Kingdom is relatively small among many palaces in Shazhou, not to mention that it is not comparable to Qiuzi Kingdom, even with Shanshan Kingdom.

The dragon would look around, amazed.

Lang Guan's surname is Liu, and he is not too old, and he is standing beside the Dragon Club with a smile at the moment, "Gong Pei will come to see the prince later." ”

"The prince can prepare first, and if there is anything, you can send someone to inform me in time."

The dragon would ask, "Then can I go out to see Luoyang?" ”

"Of course you can, but this bow and crossbow can't be taken out, in addition, it's best to have a government official open the way, this Luoyang, there are many prohibitions"

Hearing what the other party said, the Dragon Club could only dismiss the idea of going out to play for the time being.

He waited seriously for Pei Xiu's arrival in the mansion.

After Liu Langguan left here, he came directly to Pei Xiu to report the situation.

Pei Xiu was sitting on the top seat at the moment, and his front was full of all kinds of documents, all of which were about the kings of Shazhou, including the Dragon Society, which analyzed in detail the character of the Dragon Society, his personality, his many stories and so on.

Although Pei Xiu has not seen the Dragon Club now, he is already quite familiar with him in his heart.

After Liu Langguan came back, he immediately reported about the placement of the Dragon Club.

"When is Shang Shugong going?"

Pei Xiu laughed, "There's no hurry." ”

"This guy has an arrogant personality, and now that he has come to Luoyang, he has no fear in his heart, and he feels that he is close to His Majesty and will not suffer any punishment."

"You have to make him a little uneasy, otherwise it won't be easy to do things."

Pei Xiu's purpose this time is also very simple, to promote the direct management of Shazhou, these big and small vassal kings in Shazhou naturally have to be eliminated one by one, saying that it is too much to get rid of, it should be said that they must be resettled one by one.

Looking at His Majesty's intentions, in the future, it will definitely be more trade with the west, and Shazhou, as the first stop, cannot be underestimated.

And the existence of the vassal kings is very unfavorable to the Shazhou Thorn History Department, these people are independent, they are not in harmony with each other, and they have no ability to govern the country, the temple gives them the materials to develop the local area, they are swallowed up by their private, and the financial situation is frequently urgent, and they even need to borrow money and grain from the Changshi Mansion.

Obviously, there is a lot of good arable land, but the princes and nobles hardly care about this, they almost take out all the money to build Buddhist temples, and even mobilize thousands of people to put down their things to build temples.

The history of Shazhou Thorn was originally written several times, and they all had great opinions on this group of vassal kings.

One of the biggest problems is the problem of Buddhist temples.

In order to worship the Buddha, these people dared to mobilize the people to go to conscription in the spring and autumn period, and rewarded a large amount of arable land to temples and monks, and also gave a large amount of pasture, cattle and sheep.

These kings were generally fond of Buddha, and in addition to building Buddhist temples, they would also mobilize the people to carve Buddha statues on stone walls

Pei Xiu even noticed the problem of Futu Sect from this, and there are more and more monks today, these people are familiar with the scriptures, combine the Buddhist scriptures with the current classics, and have entered the high-ranking households.

Many great clans will feast on these famous monks, debate the scriptures with them, make a name for themselves, and so on.

These monks became a new kind of celebrities.

Everyone is very curious about this.

In order to solve these problems, the best way is to remove these feudal kings first, send the minister of state or the like to take over, stop the huge cost of temple repair, and not waste the people's resources.

If you can be persuaded by words, of course, it is the best, if you are not convinced by words, then it is time for the military department and the criminal department to reason.

Pei Xiu still hopes not to reach that step.

In the next few days, Pei Xiu didn't care about this son who came from afar at all.

The dragon will become more and more bored, and several times angrily found the small official in the mansion and asked Pei Xiu when he would come to find him, but the little official just said that he would convey it.

What made the Dragons even more unsettling was that the knights he had brought with him said they were going to be relocated elsewhere, and he hadn't seen them since.

He shouted several times to see His Majesty the Emperor, but the answer of the little official was still the same as in the past, saying that he would convey it to the officials.

The people around him change from time to time, and occasionally there are armor guards to guard them.

They didn't restrict the Dragon Guild from going out, but that didn't make the Dragon Guild uneasy, and whenever the Dragon Guild said that he wanted to go to the palace, the accompanying people would always persuade him to stop him.

At this time, the Dragon Club even felt for a while: My life is in danger!

This is clearly going to put me to death!!

You can't even die here without seeing the emperor, right??

Just when the Dragon Club began to panic and feel uneasy, Pei Xiu finally came late.

On this day, when the armor soldiers occupied every corner of the courtyard, the Dragon Society was ready to die, and as a result, Pei Xiu led people in and saluted him with a smile.

"Meet the Son!"

Liu Langguan hurriedly introduced Pei Xiu's identity.

Everyone could clearly see the relieved expression of the Dragon Society.

The dragon club saluted Pei Xiu, and then the two sat down, Pei Xiu was not afraid of the other party's trouble, and let everyone go out first.

"The prince is really doing a great thing."

"Do you know how much trouble the world has caused me these days?"

Hearing Pei Xiu's inquiry, Long Hui was a little dazed, "I really don't know." ”

Pei Xiu then said: "The prince sent troops without authorization to kill a king, King Qiuzi is a king who has been canonized by His Majesty, killing such a king is equivalent to rebellion, and he will suffer the crime of clan punishment!" ”

The dragon club hurriedly explained: "I am there a reason for this"

"All things today are to be done according to the law."

"Now the temple is compiling a new law, and most of the participants are famous ministers, and these people are debating your situation, which has caused the world's criticism, and I don't know how many people have come to me these days, demanding that you be executed according to the law!"

"If it weren't for Your Majesty's friendship with your father and repeated motions for me to take refuge, I'm afraid you would have been pushed out and executed!"

Hearing these things, the Dragon Society was a little flustered.

Could it be that even the emperor can't protect himself??

Why are the ministers of the Great Wei so powerful?

"Pei Gong, how is this good?"

"What if"

Looking at the Dragon Club that began to stutter, Pei Xiu said helplessly: "Don't worry, I will do my best to protect you, this matter is indeed the first to be started by Bai Shan, how can you humiliate other kings like this?" ”

"But you really shouldn't just use your troops to kill him."

Pei Xiu pondered for a moment before he said, "The way to do today is to ask Your Majesty for sins in order to obtain forgiveness. ”

"But now the ministers of the temple have become hostile to you because of the law, and if Your Majesty does not ask for any guilt at all, I am afraid that it will be difficult to convince the people."

"I can help you think of three solutions."

The dragon club hurriedly straightened his back, "Listen to me. ”

Pei Xiu said: "The first method is the simplest, immediately meet Your Majesty to ask for your guilt, and then ask Your Majesty to punish you, Your Majesty should not deal with it severely, at most punish you for a year of reflection, and then you can return to Yanqi Kingdom, and you can not appear in the temple from now on." ”

"The second way, you can ask for your younger brother to be appointed as the king, and take the initiative to resign, so that Your Majesty will not punish you at all, and maybe give you a good official position, so that you can stay in the Central Plains as an official."

"The third way, you can follow the example of King Shanshan and take the initiative to ask for the establishment of a minister or a county, and with this merit, you can be completely pardoned, and the ministers will not say anything more about you, and you can also enjoy happiness in Luoyang as usual."

Hearing what Pei Xiu said, Long Hui was very hesitant.

Pei Xiu didn't induce the Dragon Club, nor did he force the Dragon Club, he gave the choice to the guy in front of him.

Judging from Pei Xiu's understanding of this person, this is the safest solution.

Long Hui thought about it, but still couldn't make a decision.

If he chooses the first type, he can keep his prince, but from then on life is not very good than being hated, it is a bad thing, if it is the second type, his younger brothers are not familiar with him, they are not from the concubine, let it to his younger brother, he will become a commoner, and it is not good to say what official position the emperor will give him

If it is the third type.

He was also worried that he would be placed under house arrest in Luoyang, unable to hold an official position as a prince, and unable to move around at will.

This is also a kind of torture for him.

The Dragon Club is very fond of going out to hunt, go out to play, historically, this guy is very brave, defeated the Qiuzi with weak soldiers, defeated the surrounding coalition forces, and dominated one side, but after he destroyed the Qiuci country, he always rode out alone to hunt and play, and was assassinated by the original subordinates of the Qiuci King, which can be called the Shazhou version of the little overlord.

Seeing his hesitation, Pei Xiu asked, "What is the prince hesitating?" ”

"If I'm like King Shanshan, can I go out and play at will?"

Pei Xiu laughed.

"Naturally."
