On how to make the big cat sleep obediently [Time Travel]

Although he stayed in his own fief, Prince Yu got the news very quickly, almost as soon as there was any movement in Beijing, Li Yang immediately got the letter.

Of course, it is also because the emperor of Jizhou did not hide his actions this time, but revealed his meaning and words early on.

Liu Xin first praised Prince Jue's ability to teach his son at the palace banquet, and then rewarded Prince Jue's eldest son Liu Can who sent the Yuren tribe back to Shaohai together with Prince Yu, and shortly thereafter he canonized Prince Jue's second son. Liu Feng is the king of the county.

In the royal family of Jizhou, even a prince like Prince Jue, if there is no imperial order, his son will descend to the throne to inherit the throne.

And if the other heirs of these royal families are named county kings, it is usually because the royal family guarding the border has no heirs.

Whether such an arrangement is a good thing or a bad thing for the royal family is a matter of opinion.

Staying in Beijing can certainly maintain blood, but these royal families have no fiefs, no other livelihoods, and their lives are gradually declining. After a few generations, they are even worse than the powerful nobles;

But once you go to the border, you will lose your martial arts within three generations—of course, if you manage well in the fiefdom, it will be a bit more comfortable than the royal family in Beijing, at least you don't have to live under the emperor's nose...

Of course, there is still a part of the royal family who will neither stay in Beijing nor guard the border, but will be sent to the fiefdom, and then consume their innate martial arts for a long time.

Right now, there is King Shuo in the east, Prince Yu’s three counties in the southeast, King Kui in the north, and King Huan in the west. There should be no need to send another royal family to guard the border within a few decades, so Liu Feng said When the king was named, many people were puzzled and couldn't help guessing the monarch's thoughts.

"Actually, if you think about it carefully, there are only two situations. Either His Majesty wants to make Liu Feng's son the crown prince, so he named his father first to rectify his name; or His Majesty will make the son of the eldest son the crown prince, so he appeases Liu Feng in advance. "

Jiang Zhi thought for a while, and then added a third guess: "Of course, it is not ruled out that this is just a trick of His Majesty, and His Majesty wants to take this opportunity to stabilize the Xu family and Prince Jue's Mansion."

After all, it is not a comfortable thing to have someone around you coveting the throne.

In history, there are indeed cases where emperors who have no biological sons can inherit the throne. Few emperors choose younger brothers like Emperor Li. They usually choose a docile, obedient and extremely talented nephew from the royal family as the heir, and bring them into the palace to raise them , and at the appropriate time, make him the prince, and pass him on.

Prior to this, it was indeed a common practice to reward one's father to elevate the status of one's chosen heir.

If Liu Xin really wanted to choose Prince Jue's grandson as the crown prince, then his actions at this moment were all reasonable.

Maybe Prince Jue doesn't care which of his grandsons will become the crown prince to inherit the throne, but for Prince Jue's son Liu Can and his younger brother Liu Feng, whose son is chosen as the prince has a very different meaning.

Because in history, the royal family who inherited the throne in this way, in order to further justify their status and emphasize their orthodoxy, usually named their biological father as emperor after ascending the throne.

Although it is only a title of emperor in name, the specifications of the burial of the emperor and the county king are worlds apart.

For the royal family of Jizhou, it is of course completely different to enter the imperial tomb to enjoy the sacrifices of future generations, or to enter the accompanying tomb to become a member of thousands of royal families.

"Even if Prince Jue knew that there must be a conspiracy, it still couldn't stop the power from touching people's hearts. From the moment Liu Feng became king, Prince Jue's mansion may have already begun to create gaps from within."

"A trick of alienation may cause the flesh and blood to turn against each other..." Thinking that Liu Xin should have used this method to deal with Liu Yu and the Xu family in the past, Xiao Nian felt annoyed for a while.

But he also understood Jiang Zhi's words in his heart - even if he knew in his heart that there was a trick by Liu Xin, it was still inevitable that someone would take the bait.

Liu Feng and Liu Can are also the sons of Prince Jue. Seeing that his elder brother is the eldest son, he will become the county king and inherit the palace in the future, his son will become the emperor of Jizhou, his elder brother will also have the nominal throne, and the other son will be crowned prince. But on the other hand, there is nothing in my own house, how can I feel better?

In the same way, Prince Jue's son has a noble status, because Prince Jue is Zongzheng and in charge of the royal family's affairs, and he himself also serves in Zongzheng's mansion. In the future, he will stay in Beijing to inherit the palace, which can be regarded as the only honor in the royal family.

If the son of the younger brother Liu Feng is made the crown prince, the younger brother who will always be crushed by him will be named the emperor in the future, and Liu Feng's other son will also be made the prince by the elder brother who inherits the throne. On the contrary, it is Liu Can's son. Wouldn't it be ridiculous for the son to be demoted to the rank of Xijue?

Therefore, Emperor Jizhou's approach is simple but very effective, especially since he has not made a clear statement yet, which means that both sides have hope, and it is even more impossible to be of one mind.

"Even if it's the Xu family, I'm afraid they haven't decided who to support now."

Not only the Prince Jue's Mansion, but also the Prince's Mansion of Huan County may produce a future emperor. The reason why the Xu family has been able to operate for so many years is because of a prudence that they will not make decisions lightly before they determine their goals.

They will definitely think twice and make trade-offs in the process of contacting these possible heirs.

"This game was already set up when Prince Jue and His Royal Highness sent the Yuren back to Shaohai... Seeing that the Yuren finally stopped pestering Your Highness, I'm afraid we will have a very happy conversation with Prince Jue."

Jiang Changshi thought about the changes in the situation in Beijing and China during this period, and continued: "I just don't know what your Majesty will do next."

When Prince Yu left Beijing, he not only expressed his attitude to Liu Xin, but also expressed his determination to return to the fief when he bid farewell to the queen mother, and publicly expressed his determination to return to the fief when the emperor of Jizhou held a banquet to see off the mermaids. Will go back to Beijing again.

No matter what Liu Xin and the Xu family think, this already means staying away from the struggle for imperial power very clearly.As long as he really didn't step into Tianjing again, he wouldn't have to go into that muddy water on the surface.

"The time is ripe. Make arrangements immediately to bring Imperial Physician Jian and Dr. Jian's family to Suijin."

Now that the Xu family and Prince Jue's mansion are all focused on Liu Feng's appointment as king, it doesn't make much sense to stare at him at Prince Yu's mansion at this time. At this time, it is a good idea to bring Xiaonian's family to his fief. the best of times.

"Yes, Your Highness, I will do it immediately." Jiang Zhi clasped his hands in response.

Thinking that their family will be reunited soon, Xiaonian couldn't help feeling endless anticipation and joy.

Seeing the smile on his face, Liu Yu was naturally happy, and even the fact that the little tiger cub lived in a separate room with them had been stalled, so he didn't feel so depressed.

Since Prince Yu had fulfilled his promise, completed the tasks requested by Imperial Physician Jian, and dispelled some concerns, Jian Zunyou moved to Suijin with his family without much hesitation.

He has already retired from the imperial hospital, and now he is devoting himself to writing books and talking about it. It is of course a good thing that he can change to a relatively stable environment, and that he is closer to Xiaonian so that he doesn't have to worry too much about his safety.

As for Xiaonian's uncle, Jian Xingyuan, he is sitting in someone else's clinic in his middle age. After all, it is not a long-term solution. Since sooner or later he will be separated to set up a clinic on his own, it is better to go to Liyang to compete with old friends in Beijing. start.

On the other hand, Jian Xiaoling can go to Liyang with his family and master to continue practicing martial arts, prepare for the martial arts in a year's time, and even meet the monsters on the border... In short, as long as you don't distract yourself, you can get twice the result with half the effort.

It only takes a few days from Beijing to Suijin, and they have already made preparations, so even if the old and young are afraid of bumps and do not rush on the road, they still arrived in Suijin, the county seat of Liyang, very quickly.

In the eyes of outsiders, this move is naturally a signal that Prince Yu intends to live in Liyang permanently, that's why he took the imperial physician Jian's family who can cure his nightmare to his fief, so as not to be too late in the future.

……

At this time, in Prince Jue's mansion, Liu Jue was talking to his two sons-in-law.

"Prince Yu really left the capital... It doesn't look like he's making progress by retreating."

His Majesty and the Empress Dowager naturally tried every means to keep Prince Yu who asked to leave. Even Liu Jue tried to persuade him, but it did not change his determination. It was indeed an attitude that Prince Yu left so neatly.

Prince Jue's son immediately echoed his father's words: "Prince Yu has always been serious and indifferent to others. Since he has his own fiefdom, it is natural for him not to be controlled by His Majesty and the Queen Mother."

The so-called sky is high and the emperor is far away. Although Suijin is not too far from Tianjing, it takes more than half a month to go back and forth. When Prince Yu leaves Tianjing, he does not have to live under the eyes of His Majesty and the Queen Mother all the time. It is indeed beautiful.

However, the Fengjun King, who had just been crowned king, had a different opinion from his elder brother: "Prince Yu holds a heavy army, and his three counties of Liyang are connected to the north and south, and they are also near the sea. No matter how long they stay in the fief, how can they make people feel at ease?" .”

Upon hearing this, Prince Jue thought for a while, then nodded and said, "What Ah Feng said is also reasonable."

Seeing that his father agreed with Liu Feng's words, Prince Jue's son quickly glanced at his younger brother who was standing on his father's lower left hand, and retorted: "Prince Yu left Tianjing voluntarily. Instead of being suspicious of Liyang, we might as well think about the Xu family. The matter of sending people to Shuoyuan frequently for the sake of marrying a daughter."

Shuoyuan is the fiefdom of the king of Shuoyuan. A daughter of the Xu family has a marriage contract with the eldest son of the prefect of Shuoyuan. Before Liu Feng was named the king of the county, the Xu family had already sent people to Shuoyuan frequently. As for where and what did they do? , outsiders do not know.

When people marry a daughter, be more cautious, no one can tell any gossip, but it will inevitably make people in the game think too much.

Liu Feng didn't seem to be angry when he saw his elder brother contradicting his words, but immediately cupped his hands respectfully and said, "What what elder brother said is true, I was overthinking."

Although during this period of time, Liu Feng, who has been crowned king and has not had time to build a mansion, has always been submissive towards his son, but Liu Can always feels that something is wrong, and wants to say something before teaching him a lesson.

Prince Jue didn't give the eldest son this chance and interrupted their conversation:

"According to the news from the palace, His Majesty favored several concubines again, it seems that he has other plans."
