After confirming the late Wenchen generals who should be sacrificed in the Wenying Hall and the Wuhun Palace, Zhao Changqing briefly summarized the war in the Jin Kingdom to the ministers, and put everyone's merits aside for the time being.

Since it is in the name of returning triumphantly, this celebration banquet tonight is indispensable.

During the banquet, Zhao Changqing was also more tactful than before, spoke official to everyone, and then left alone, leaving the ministers drunk and resting.

Jia Xu didn't attend the banquet, he was waiting for His Majesty the Emperor in the Xuanzheng Palace.

When Zhao Changqing came to the Xuanzheng Palace, without saying a word, he asked him directly: "Do you know why I asked you to come today?"

Jia Xu thought for a while and said bluntly: "Dare to ask Your Majesty, but is it because you want to divide the meritorious ministers?"

Zhao Changqing nodded and said: "After two years of fighting, many generals have come to the fore, such as Bai Qi, who fought this battle to destroy the country, and his merits have not lost to Chen and Xiao, how do you say I should reward these meritorious heroes?"

Jia Xu thought for a while, and then said: "Your Majesty, you are not a prince, at most you have to be a duke, and it is not hereditary, these meritorious ministers today are no less than the founding heroes of the past." ”

He had his own worries, and it was easy for him to have an impact on the development of future generations by dividing so many dukes.

Zhao Changqing also felt that it was very reasonable, he smiled and said: "I am looking for you today just to discuss this matter, I have a plan in my heart, and I don't know if it is appropriate or not." ”

Jia Xu arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty, Weichen listens to you. ”

Zhao Changqing nodded and said: "My plan is also very simple, that is, from now on, if you are not a descendant of the surname Zhao, you will not be crowned king, if there is a person with a foreign surname who is crowned the king, it will be regarded as a chaotic minister and thief, and the world will attack it together." ”

Jia Xu was stunned when he heard this, he understood why His Majesty came to him, it was nothing more than to ask himself if this decree could be implemented, it seems that His Majesty should have a plan in his heart, since this is the case, then there is no need to say more.

Originally, in the territory of Wei, there were almost no kings with different surnames.

However, who knew that Zhao Changqing still had the second half of the sentence, and almost choked Jia Xu half to death, only to hear him say: "Not only that, the princes who have been sealed can be hereditarily replaced, but not this hereditary replacement, the general rich and noble, the eldest son and the concubine do not know how many, from now on, not only the eldest son can inherit the duke's estate, but the concubine can also inherit." The eldest son inherits the inheritance and is reduced to a marquis, but the concubine of the Guogong family can only inherit the inheritance, and so on, what do you think?"

Jia Xu only listened to it once, and then analyzed the pros and cons, and then was taken aback, and muttered in his heart: "What a poisonous scheme!"

He understood what the emperor meant.

After the death of the Duke of Guo, the eldest son of the Duke of Guo could not inherit the duke, but could only inherit the marquis, but his other sons did not have to be commoners, they could inherit an earl under the marquis.

For example, after the death of the eldest son of the princess, his son inherits the earl, then the other sons can only inherit the viscount.

After the death of the prince of the country, his son will inherit the viscount, and his descendants will only inherit the baron.

If it continues in this way, in less than three generations, the Hehe Mansion will completely decline and fall out of the imperial court system.

Unless there is an heir of the prince of the country who is making meritorious contributions during the period, the position of the prince of the country can be restored.

This ploy cannot be said to be poisonous.

If you do it perfectly, you can still leave a good name.

After all, although the emperor will not let you inherit the throne of the prince, but how many children you have, the emperor will give all your children a title.

In this way, although the princes of the dynasty will complain, and although their eldest son will complain, the other sons of the prince will strongly agree with this matter!

A lifetime of Bai Ding and a title, no matter how you look at it, no matter what, in the small title, it is also a public meal, and it is raised by the emperor!

If the prince of the dynasty does not agree, it is easy to say, the big deal will be a father and son and brothers will end up against each other.

Jia Xu thought that this was enough, who knew that His Majesty the Emperor still had something to say, he then said to Jia Xu: "Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, there have been many kings with their own surnames, they are all relatives of me, and they have always been to open their mouths and clothes to stretch out their hands to manage the court to ask for money, and after so many years, the power of their individual family has become more and more huge, and now it is okay, the court can still afford these people, but what about the future?

This question can be regarded as touching Jia Xu's nerves, so that he does not dare to answer.

How can this be answered?

It's all about the prince, it's the emperor's family matter, a foreign courtier, no matter how he talks, I'm afraid it's not good-looking, right?

In case a few words are not good or annoy Your Majesty, it is time for your own life.

Therefore, in the face of this problem, it is better to be steady.

He paused, thinking that His Majesty the Emperor asked rhetorically, "Then what does Your Majesty mean?"

Zhao Changqing said with a smile: "It's the same as that scheme, the king with the surname of the fief, from the grandson to the concubine, the descendants share the fief in turn, until the end of the land, when the land ends, he will become a commoner, what do you think?"

Jia Xu's heart was pounding.

There is no solution to this scheme!

He stood in the current interests of Wei and considered: "Your Majesty, this plan is feasible!"

You can't go on any more, you will lose too much talk.

Zhao Changqing laughed twice and said: "Okay, then in the morning of tomorrow, I will personally say this policy, this policy, for the time being, let's call it a Tui En Order!"

"Tui En Order?" Jia Xu muttered and thought to himself: "Even if you only rely on this Tui En Order, Your Majesty will be famous for eternity!"

Jia Xu stepped back.

Zhao Changqing came to the harem.

In the imperial garden, Zhao Changqing and He Ning sat looking at each other, their children, after reaching this point, had already fallen asleep.

Since Zhao Changqing left the capital, He Ning has been absent-minded, and this time seeing His Majesty return unharmed, a big stone in his heart can finally fall.

Zhao Changqing held He Ning's white and tender jade hand, and said with affection: "In the days when I was not in the capital, I heard others say that you have organized the harem in an orderly manner, and you have also carried out a rectification of some rumors and rumors in the capital, so that I can fight outside without worries, it is really hard for you." ”

He Ning was about to explain this matter to him, and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, the concubine is guilty. There are enemy spies sent by other countries in the capital, trying to cause trouble in the capital, and the concubines have no choice but to move out of the queen's prestige and clean up the capital, otherwise, lest there be any chaos here, so that His Majesty on the front line is distracted by this. ”

Zhao Changqing smiled and said: "I don't mean to blame you, on the contrary, I think you did a good job, because you were originally the queen, in the whole world, except for me, you are the most precious person in the world, the country is mine, and it is also ours, because one day, this country will be handed over to Qing'er sooner or later." What we are parents do is nothing more than to help our children keep this country. ”

In those days, rumors were rife in the streets and alleys of the capital, riots had occurred in many places, prices in various places were rising rapidly, and He Ning was also forced to be helpless, she could only come forward, otherwise, she couldn't suppress the rumors like a raging flame.

Some people say that the emperor has been defeated, and the enemy army is about to attack the capital, and some people say that the country has run out of money because of the war, and it is going to start collecting taxes.

What's more, it was directly said that His Majesty the Emperor had died in battle.

Rumors are better than an army, and He Ning perfectly stopped a rumor war through his own means.

There is no doubt that she is a wise woman.

All of Zhao Changqing's decision today is so that his children can inherit the throne smoothly in the future.

After a short discussion, the two went back to rest.

The next morning, the morning pilgrimage.

Zhao Changqing issued a decree of encouragement.

The Manchu civil and military forces were in an uproar.

If this was placed in the previous dynasty or during the reign of Emperor Renzong, it would not necessarily be possible to issue this edict unimpeded.

However, the beginning of the dynasty is a bit extraordinary.

The main reason is that Zhao Changqing's personal influence is too great.

As soon as the Tui En order was issued, not only was there an uproar in the court, but even the people were full of heated discussions.

Many kings of other countries began to follow the example of the Great Wei Emperor.

Zhao Changqing's decree of encouragement has achieved strategic success, and the next step is to closely monitor whether these meritorious men have done what they have done in accordance with this decree.
