An hour passed quickly.
Tang Huang Li Sheng got up, ready to return to the Hall of Eternal Life to deal with political affairs.
"I chatted with the third brother today, and I really feel less depressed." Tang Huang Li Sheng looked at Su Qin with a smile on his face and said.
Su Qin shook his head, but did not reply.
the next day.
On the Hall of Tai Chi.
Li Sheng, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, sat on the dragon chair and looked down at the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty.
"I am very grateful to all the feudal lords who guarded the border for Tang Guoyuan," Tang Huang Li Sheng said directly without talking nonsense.
In the past three years, although Tang Huang Li Sheng hadn't mentioned cutting down the feudal clan, he had thought about it many times in his heart.
In the end, Emperor Tang Li Sheng realized that it was not advisable to directly cut down the vassals, which would easily cause turmoil in the Tang state and the rebellion of the vassal kings.
But it is not enough to directly cut the feudal clan, but the indirect cutting of the feudal clan keeps popping up in Tang Huang Li Sheng's mind.
It took Tang Huang Li Sheng three years to finally figure out a way to indirectly weaken the power of the vassal king.
On the Hall of Tai Chi.
Hearing Tang Huang Li Sheng's words, all the court officials looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing why.
A few years ago, they saw with their own eyes that Tang Emperor Li Sheng was furious, thinking about cutting the feudal clan and so on.
But now, Tang Huang Li Sheng is "very moved" by the behavior of the vassal king
Just when the courtiers were puzzled, Tang Huang Li Sheng's words continued to ring out.
"All the vassal kings have worked so hard and accomplished so much without the contribution of every child in the clan. I have decided to pass down the order to allow the vassal king to distribute his fiefdom to every child."
Tang Huang Li Sheng said slowly.
As soon as this word came out.
The courtiers all fell silent.
A small number of courtiers changed their minds quickly, and quickly figured out the purpose of Tang Huang Li Sheng's doing this. Hundreds of years have passed, and the scourge of the vassal king will surely be resolved.
"Your Majesty, this is inappropriate."
A minister immediately stood up and bowed to Emperor Tang Li Sheng: "The eldest son is the priority in the succession of the vassal king. If your majesty abolishes this law, it will easily cause the vassal king to be dissatisfied."
This minister is really thinking about the Tang country. Even he can figure out another layer of deep meaning in the order of the Tang Emperor Li Sheng. Can you vassal kings not think of it
"Don't worry, I just allow, not order, if the vassal king is not willing, he can refuse."
Tang Huang Li Sheng was very calm. Before today, he had thought everything clearly, but after chatting with Su Qin for a while last night, Tang Huang Li Sheng became more aware of what he was doing.
This decree of his is a conspiracy, and the vassal king may not implement it, but what about the disciples of his clan
Normally, after the death of the old vassal king, the eldest son inherits the position of vassal king, and the other brothers of the eldest son will die on their own.
In this case, once Tang Huang Li Sheng allowed other children of the vassal to inherit the fief, it would inevitably cause divisions within the vassal.
Except for the eldest son, other disciples will spontaneously support what Tang Huang Li Sheng said.
"I have made up my mind."
"You don't need to say any more."
Tang Huang Li Sheng saw that there were still courtiers who wanted to dissuade him, so he waved his hands and got up, leaving the Tai Chi Hall.
at the same time.
Outside the Eastern Palace Youchunfang.
Su Qin's eyes were calm, and he looked in the direction of Tai Chi Hall from afar.
"Finally figured out the Tweet Order"
Su Qin shook his head slightly and sighed softly.
Last night, Su Qin knew that Tang Huang Li Sheng had something on his mind, so he paid a little attention to the other party today, and as expected, Tang Huang Li Sheng made a move today
It's just that, although the Tweeting Order can greatly solve the scourge of the vassal king, Tang Huang Li Sheng made a mistake.
"The order is reversed."
Su Qin thought silently in his heart.
If Emperor Li Sheng of the Tang Dynasty had bulldozed all the vassal kings to the level before implementing the decree of grace, and frightened them all, and then implemented the decree of grace, he would surely be able to eliminate future troubles forever and completely solve the scourge of the vassal kings.
but now
The most important premise has not been fulfilled, and implementing the Tweet Order at this time is tantamount to touching the bottom line of the feudal lords.
Although Su Qin knew that it was wrong for Tang Huang Li Sheng to do so, he did not stop it.
If Tang Huang Li Sheng was assassinated, Su Qin might take action, but in matters of state affairs, Tang Huang Li Sheng was left to make his own decisions.
"It's good to let him suffer."
Su Qin turned around and walked back to Youchunfang.
Tang Emperor Li Sheng has always been too "smooth". Since he ascended the throne, he has everything that the old Tang Emperor has paved for him, plus Su Qin made two secret shots to help him clear the obstacles, shocking the nations, and doing Things went smoothly.
Although Tang Huang Li Sheng has done a lot of practical things, Tang Guo is also thriving under his rule, but there are many things in this world that are not all smooth sailing.
soon.
As Tang Huang Li Sheng's order spread throughout the territories of the ten vassal kings, it caused a sensation among many vassal princes and brothers.
However.
Not long after this sensation started, it was suppressed forcefully by all the vassal kings.
Immediately afterwards.
The top ten vassals are all in a small town.
This small town does not belong to the territory of any vassal king, but it is close to the territories of the major vassal kings, so when the vassal kings have matters to discuss, they usually choose to stay here.
"hehe."
"The emperor of Tang in Chang'an City is quite courageous. He even dares to interfere in the affairs of us and other feudal lords."
King Fan Yang looked coldly, glanced at the other nine vassals, and said with a sneer.
When the Tweeting Order was passed to their territory, these vassal kings realized that something was wrong, and after they noticed the eager gazes of their other disciples, they were sure that it was the Emperor Tang's method.
"snort!"
"With just a few words, we can divide our territories and make brothers turn against each other and brother to brother. This Emperor Tang is not only courageous, but also vicious."
King Shuofang also said, his tone was full of coldness.
As vassal kings, they are hereditary, and they are vassal kings from generation to generation. They are high above them, so they naturally don't want to see their offspring continue to be divided, and finally become playthings in the hands of the Tang emperor.
"So what should we do now?"
"Emperor Tang has begun to break the foundation of our vassal kings, can you still remain indifferent?"
King Beiting spoke, and he wanted to know what other vassals thought.
"Nature won't be indifferent."
King Fan Yang shook his head and said.
"Why don't you kill this Emperor Tang? Since he is disobedient, let's replace him with another Emperor Tang."
King Jiannan suddenly said.
As soon as this word came out.
The rest of the vassal kings suddenly showed their hearts moved.
However, King Shuofang shook his head and said, "So what if you kill him? Which one of us is not afraid of the Tang emperors in the past, even if you kill this one, will the next one be obedient?"
"Besides, there should be an ancestor of a certain royal family sitting in the Tang Imperial Palace. It is not appropriate for us to assassinate the Tang Emperor in the Tang Imperial Palace."
King Shuofang said softly.
Whether it was Nanming Wuyang King and Yin Jiubao who fell outside the imperial city, or Yegucheng Ximen Chuuxue disappeared in the Tang Palace for no reason, it all shows that there is great terror in the Tang Palace.
