Chapter 1224: Fiefdom


He even wanted to seal the soil Ye Chunqiu was actually embarrassed to make such a request Having said that, if Ye Chunqiu straightforwardly wanted to seal the soil, it would inevitably give people a very bad impression.

The most particular thing in this era is to be subtle, and people who reach out to ask for benefits, even if others really promise you, they generally give people a feeling that they must be compared.

What's more, Ye Chunqiu's ambition is not small, and he even dares to ask for the land.

In the entire Ming Dynasty, there are only two kinds of people who can be qualified to seal the land, one is the vassal state, which is the treatment of the prince, and the other is the county state, which is the treatment of the county king.

Although the vassal kings and county kings have been greatly reduced after the Jingjing, because Emperor Wen is under the banner of the law of the ancestors, he still retains Emperor Taizu's favor for the clan.

For example, King Ning's fief is in Nanchang, Nanchang is a big city, here, he has the right to interfere in the administration, has the right to appoint civil and military officials in the palace, and even has the right to establish a guard, as well as the right to collect taxes.

It can be said that it is precisely because of this system of a country within a country that the vassal kings have the capital to rebel.

Similarly, the county is often a small vassal state, but although it is a county state, in fact, the small feudal territory of this country within a country is often cut out of the vassal state, such as the king of Shanggao County, this Shanggao County is his domain, although according to the system, he has independent qualifications, in fact, it is just a structure attached to the Ning Wangfu.

Because the foreign surname cannot be crowned king, and the king can have the land, because of this ancestral system, so theoretically speaking, Taizu and his old man are equivalent to eliminating the possibility of foreign surnames.

And now, Ye Chunqiu asked for the sealing of the soil, which is definitely an unprecedented thing Even the Qianguo Gong of Zhenyunnan is just a town, and the so-called town is just to let their children and grandchildren be officials there for generations, and to be in charge of the military and government on their behalf, which is a completely different concept from fiefdom.

Even at the beginning, with Ye Chunqiu's noble character and asking for the release of Deng Jian as a buffer, Ye Chunqiu proposed this, but it still startled everyone. surnamed Ye, this has a great appetite, doesn't this guy want to be the king?

Zhu Houzhao didn't care too much, he just sealed a piece of land, and he really didn't feel distressed at all, after all There are countless vassal kings and county kings in the world, and Zhu Houzhao doesn't care about adding another one.

Isn't it just a county Zhu Houzhao is still very generous in this regard, after all, Ye Chunqiu's contribution is really not small, and in Zhu Houzhao's heart, Ye Chunqiu is almost the same as his own brother, can't he compare to those cousins who can't be beaten with eight poles It's just that for many ministers, they can't help but feel a little taboo in their hearts, there have always been people with foreign surnames to build a domain, but few have a good end, this Ye Chunqiu, what do you want to do "Hmm" Zhu Houzhao seemed to directly ignore the ministers with different expressions, and only looked at Ye Chunqiu and said: "You want a fief Since you have opened your mouth, I should naturally keep my promise, this matter is so decided, King Ning has the intention of rebellion, it is conclusive evidence, this Ning Wang is a family, I must be uprooted, if you are sealed to Nanchang, I am afraid that it is not appropriate, but under the Ning Wangfu, there are also Yichun County King, Gao'an County King and Shanggao County King, this Yichun, Shanggao, Gao'an three, you choose one yourself, you are still Zhenguo Gong, but, What I did for the Ming Dynasty was hard work, but because of the law of the ancestors, I can't add you to the king, so I might as well use the example of the county king to allow you to build a feudal domain and open up the land. ” According to the example of the county king, this is definitely a good encounter, not to mention Yichun, Shanggao, Gao'an three places, are in Jiangxi political envoys, Jiangxi is a good place, if it is southern Jiangxi, the mountains are continuous, maybe it is worse, but these three places are in central Jiangxi and western Jiangxi.

There are a large number of plains here, it is definitely a treasure land, when Emperor Wen in order to appease King Ning, although he went to his military power, he was not allowed to establish a feudal town in the frontier, and moved him to the middle of the Ming Dynasty, not only to monitor, to prevent him from making trouble, on the other hand, but also to give some kind of preferential treatment, after all, Jiangxi has always been the land of fish and rice.

The first three places here, any of them can definitely be regarded as blessed land, not to mention let Ye Chunqiu choose one of these three.

The hearts of the officials were first surprised, and now they can't help but envy them, and even many people began to think about where they would choose if they were themselves Yichun is called the spring city since ancient times, although it is mountainous, it is pleasant in all seasons, Gao'an, Shanggao is close to Nanchang, not to mention that there are many paddy fields, the products are also abundant, and it is also a good place to go.

Ye Chunqiu, who is the protagonist, did not hesitate much, and said with a straight face: "Your Majesty, the minister doesn't want to be in Jiangxi." ” Don't want to This time, there was an uproar again, and some people began to feel sorry for Ye Chunqiu again.

Nanzhili and Jiangsu and Zhejiang are the richest places in the Ming Dynasty, and Zhejiang is not allowed to build a domain because of the coast, Nanzhili is the land of, and it will not be sealed to others, the only good place to go is Jiangxi, but you Ye Chunqiu don't think about it, just say no Ye Chunqiu continued: "Since the minister is the prince of the town, he should guard the country for the Ming Dynasty, and the minister hopes to be fiefdom, and it is precisely because of this intention, although Jiangxi is good, but it is not what the minister wants, the minister brother implores His Majesty to seal the minister brother to the outside of the pass, that Emperor Taizu Gao, has long said that the Ming Dynasty has the land of the four seas, Nanyang, and the Wa Kingdom, for the Ming Dynasty, it is just the trouble of scabies, and the desert is the eternal enemy of the Ming Dynasty, the minister is willing to be descendant for generations, for the Ming Dynasty to guard the desert, so, I implore Your Majesty to seal the subject brother outside the pass, for the Ming Dynasty to open up territory, Guardian Society. ” If you say that at the beginning, when you heard Ye Chunqiu say that you want to be fiefdom as a reward, in fact, many people feel that Ye Chunqiu is too selfish, and they actually want to set a precedent for the Ming Dynasty and want to seal the land as a person with a foreign surname But now, after listening to Ye Chunqiu's words, everyone was shocked.

Ye Chunqiu's words are very reasonable, the desert is the eternal enemy of the Central Dynasty, from the original Xiongnu, to the later Xianbei, Turkic, and then to the Jin and Mongolian, from Warat to Tatar, the enemy of the Central Dynasty will always be in Mobei, even if the whole country has the strength to eliminate an enemy, but soon, in this bitter cold land, there will be a new enemy, these enemies live by plundering, do not change their nature, if the Guannei is strong, they are just harassment and plunder, and once the society is turbulent, They became the greatest threat, breaking through the walls and sweeping through the gates.

Such a place, you live a comforting life, but it is such a place, so that the courtiers in the main hall can't understand why Ye Chunqiu wants to use this as a fief aa2705221:
