Chapter 509 Second Choice (Third Update)
Emperor Chongzhen looked at him and said in an unhurried tone: "First, let's discuss the matter. Considering that you don't really want to take advantage of the opportunity to seize military power to rebel, I can spare you the death penalty. The quasi-cabinet proposes to choose another person to take over as the king of Tang. Considering that you will not be punished in the future. If something like this happens again, an older and more stable person will be elected as the candidate for King of Tang."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Yujian's face turned pale for an instant, and then the sneer-smiling faces of his two uncles flashed in his mind, seeming to be laughing at him, and at the same time seeming to be triumphant, and he couldn't help but show unwillingness and anger on their faces. color.
In the original history, Zhu Yujian was imprisoned in Fengyang, but it was his younger brother who eventually succeeded the king of Tang, and the two uncles who bullied him were beaten to death before they committed the crime. It's just that this plane is different because of the butterfly effect.
After Emperor Chongzhen finished making his first choice, he felt a little confident when he saw Zhu Yujian's expression change. Regarding the internal conflicts within the Tang Wang family, he has asked Jin Yiwei to investigate clearly. Because of this, he deliberately chose an excuse that he wanted someone older and more stable.
After Emperor Chongzhen waited for a while, his face became more serious and his demeanor became more serious. He said slowly: "The second option, I will give you a bright road and provide you with an unprecedented opportunity. In the future, It will also be an opportunity to leave a name in the history books..."
Unexpectedly, as soon as he said this, Zhu Yujian suddenly knelt down and said loudly with a hint of urgency: "Your Majesty, the sinner chooses the second choice!"
Emperor Chongzhen was a little surprised when he heard this. He didn't expect that Zhu Yujian made his choice before he even finished speaking.
After thinking about it for a moment, he understood. For this young Tang Shisun, everything else didn't matter. The most important thing was not to let his two uncles succeed. It can be seen from this that in his original plane, he would beat his two uncles to death. This was indeed a bit crazy to do this in the era of filial piety in the feudal dynasty. Anyone who knows a little bit will do it secretly.
Emperor Chongzhen looked at Zhu Yujian lying on the ground for a while, but still said seriously: "Although I also hope that you will choose the second option, before you make a decision, you must first listen to me explain the second option."
After hearing this, Zhu Yujian was a little surprised. He raised his head and looked at Emperor Chongzhen with a little surprise, then fell down and said, "The sinner obeys the order!"
"If I want to revive the Ming Dynasty, the problem of vassal kings must be solved. You should know that the vassal kings of our Ming Dynasty are hereditary. In this way, the longer the Ming Dynasty is founded, the more vassal kings we will have. The land that does not pay taxes will also be More and more. It is conceivable that one day in the future, there will be so many vassal kings that the land in the world will not be enough for enfeoffment. The number of clan members also increases with the passage of time. Many years ago, the imperial court was no longer able to To bear the salary of the clan, the imperial court had to use various methods to default on the arrears and reduce the number of people in the clan registered in Jade Butterfly."
When Emperor Chongzhen said this, he couldn't help but sigh: "Such a thing is not a good outcome for the Ming Dynasty or our clan named Zhu. The problems caused by it, whether it is the Ming Dynasty or the clan, These are all unbearable burdens. Do you understand what I am saying?"
Zhu Yujian had long been dumbfounded. He didn't think much about these things in the past, and even complained about the court being mean to the clan after hearing some things. Now after listening to the emperor's explanation so carefully, he realized that this problem seemed to be very serious. At least he knew the amount of Tang Wang's fiefdom well in mind. But he couldn't figure it out, how to solve this problem? Hasn't there been no good solution in every dynasty, so that's why it's been delayed like this? Could it be that the emperor is so young but already has a solution?
After Emperor Chongzhen asked the question, he did not wait for Zhu Yujian to answer, and continued: "So I have thought about it. Instead of letting the feudal princes and clans stay in the country and eventually dragging down the Ming Dynasty to its demise, it is better to uphold the Taizu's ambition. Enfeoff the vassal clan to foreign countries, open up territory for the Ming Dynasty, and expand a new living place for my clan named Zhu..."
Zhu Yujian was stunned when he heard this. He never expected that the emperor would come up with such a solution. It was so unexpected!
Before he came back to his senses, Emperor Chongzhen said again: "For example, I plan to entrust you to Dongwu. There are rich products and food is harvested three times a year. It's just that the barbarians don't know how to manage it, so they waste it in vain." Good place."
Having said this, he raised his head and gestured. When Cao Huachun saw it, he quickly took out the prepared map of Dongwu from his sleeve, stepped forward and laid it on the table.
"Get up and I'll tell you about the land of Dongwu."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Yujian had forgotten the distinction between superiority and inferiority. He stood up and looked at the map curiously. Where is Togo?
Emperor Chongzhen pointed to the land of Burma in later generations and said: "This is Dongwu. It borders Ming Yunnan to the north and the Indian Ocean to the south. There are many ports and the navy can be developed to control many places. In addition, to the west is Tianzhu, where are there more The plains are rich in products, but the local people are stupid and lazy, and their land has been wasted..."
Zhu Yujian looked at the map and thought to himself while listening. Originally, when he saw Donggo there for the first time, he thought that this place was not a wilderness? But as Emperor Chongzhen explained, his eyes slowly lit up. How could there be such a good thing?
After the introduction, Emperor Chongzhen said seriously to Zhu Yujian: "My plan is to take back the existing fiefdom of the Tang Dynasty and change it to the land of Dongwu. Of course, if Dongwu does not accept the kingship, it is not right to directly seal it. It's possible that you need to send troops to defeat it. The imperial court can assist you in this matter. The size of the land that the King of Tang can entrust depends on your own ability."
Zhu Yujian was a little surprised when he heard this. He didn't understand what the emperor's last words meant.
Regarding this point, Emperor Chongzhen also saw it in his eyes, and continued to explain: "The imperial court uses troops in various places, and there is not much spare power to use troops in Dongwu. Therefore, you still have to do your best in Dongwu."
At this point, Emperor Chongzhen became more serious and said: "I promise that the vassal states abroad will be just like the vassal states designated by Taizu. The vassal king will have military and political power, and all matters will be decided by the vassal king."
When Zhu Yujian's eyes lit up, he continued to explain: "The troops needed to establish a vassal state can be recruited by the vassal king from neighboring provinces; the money and grain needed can be auctioned off the existing enfeoffed fields. In addition, I will also send the court informants. The Minister of War and the general in charge of the army will assist, and the local authorities will cooperate fully."
Having said this, Emperor Chongzhen paused, stared at Zhu Yujian's face and asked: "This is the second choice, how about it?"
