Ming Dynasty: Teaching The Prince Dragon-Slaying Skills At The Beginning

“Excuse me, sir, is there a solution to the vassal system?!!”

Zhu Di, who was sitting in the second row, stood up, bowed slightly and saluted Yan Changqing, and then asked respectfully.

In Zhu Di's view, since Yan Changqing can see the hidden dangers behind the clan system of the Ming Dynasty royal family as he did last time, and give corresponding solutions.

So Yan Changqing, who also saw the hidden dangers behind the Ming Dynasty vassal system this time, should also be able to provide corresponding solutions!

As soon as Zhu Di said this, Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Biao, Zhu Di, Zhu Fan and other princes all focused their attention on Yan Changqing, expecting Yan Changqing to come up with a solution that could solve the hidden dangers behind the vassal system.

After all, Yan Changqing's wisdom no longer needs to be proven in their opinion.

Instead of thinking hard on their own and not necessarily being able to come up with a suitable solution, they might as well ask Yan Changqing directly now.

Upon hearing the question from Yan King Zhu Di, Yan Changqing nodded without any hesitation and replied:

"Yes!"

Zhu Di's face immediately looked overjoyed, and then he bowed deeply to Yan Changqing, bowed and thanked:

"Please sir, teach me how to wait!"

Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fan and other princes also stood up in excitement, and all bowed to Yan Changqing and said:

"Please sir, teach me how to wait!"

Although Zhu Yuanzhang did not speak, a flash of excitement flashed in his eyes.

After all, if the hidden dangers behind the Ming vassal system can be solved, then the danger of the Ming Dynasty being overthrown and destroyed will be reduced again in the future!

As for the fact that all the princes paid homage to Yan Changqing, Zhu Yuanzhang regarded it as thanking him for saving the future Ming Dynasty.

"Simple, just take away the military power from the feudal king!"

"As the "Dragon Slaying Technique" I taught you before said, boxing is the source of power."

"Bingquan means military power. Because the feudal king has military power, the feudal king will have the opportunity to interfere with other financial rights, political power, civil rights and other rights.'

"Then it will be possible for the future vassal king to turn his vassal territory into a separate vassal state." "

"So as long as the military power of the vassal king is completely taken away, and only the honor, wealth, clothing, and food are given to him, then naturally there will be no more rebellions among the vassal kings in the future Ming Dynasty."

"It's just that accordingly, after losing military power and cutting off the possibility of future civil strife, the vassal king also lost the ability to defend the central court from foreign enemies, maintain border stability, and consolidate the court's rule."

"After all, if you want to defend the central court from foreign enemies, maintain border stability, and consolidate the rule of the court, it is absolutely impossible to do it without military power.

At the end of the sentence, Yan Changqing looked at Zhu Di with a half-smile.

Because it turns out that this is what Zhu Di did in history!

He rebelled because of the reduction of the vassal. After the rebellion was successful, he was also worried that the subsequent vassal kings would follow his example and rebel.

Therefore, in order to eliminate the possibility of rebellion by other vassal kings, Zhu Di found reasons to completely take back the military power in the hands of other vassal kings.

In exchange, Zhu Di greatly improved the welfare benefits of the feudal kings in other aspects, and even began to raise all the feudal kings as pigs, which instead caused huge support pressure for the royal family in the later Ming Dynasty.

The expressions on the faces of Zhu Xi, Zhu Gang, Zhu Di and other princes immediately turned ugly.

King Qin Zhu Di could not help but said:

“Isn’t this just cutting off the feudal clan?!”

How is it different from taking away the military power of the feudal king from cutting down the feudal clan?!!

Although they now have the identity of false princes, they also still have the original identities of vassal princes.

Naturally, when they can fight for the interests of the feudal king class, they must also fight for the interests of the feudal king class.

After all, if they fail to compete with their eldest brother Zhu Biao in the end, and their identity as the false prince will always be false, then they will still be able to have a more or less real vassal king as a guarantee!

"Yes, that's right!"

Yan Changqing said calmly.

“Aren’t there other solutions that offer the best of both worlds?!!”

Jin Wang Zhu Fan frowned and said with a slightly ugly expression.

Just like Zhu Xi's thoughts, Zhu Fan also wanted to have a real prince as a guarantee while taking a chance on the possibility of a true prince and future emperor.

In this way, even if they fail to compete with their eldest brother for the future emperor's position, they can still continue to be their respective vassal kings [this way they won't matter whether they win or lose.

"From the Western Zhou Dynasty to the Western Han Dynasty, to the Western Jin Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty, it took thousands of years."

"The hidden dangers brought about by the vassal system have always existed and have been repeated."

"However, even the emperors such as Emperor Zhou, Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Wu of the Jin Dynasty, and Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty could not achieve the best of both worlds.'

"Why does Your Highness think that I can find a way to get the best of both worlds?!!"

"If there is, then there is no need to wait for me to bring it up. A number of civil and military heroes in the past have already found relevant solutions.

Yan Changqing shook his head slightly and said that he did not have a best-of-both-worlds solution.

Of course, in fact, Yan Changqing does not really have the best of both worlds solution.

Even if there is no best-of-both-worlds solution now and in past history, that doesn’t mean there won’t be a best-of-both-worlds solution in future historical memory!

It's just that the time has not come yet, even if it is really proposed now.

Zhu Yuanzhang would not immediately adopt his solution, and Zhu Di, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes and princes would not necessarily be willing to follow the solution he proposed.

Therefore, Yan Changqing chose not to talk about it for the time being. Anyway, whether the hidden dangers behind the vassal system can be solved immediately or not will not be any problem for the current Ming Dynasty.

As long as Zhu Yuanzhang or Zhu Biao are still alive, the hidden dangers behind the Ming vassal system are unlikely to break out!

In the future, when Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes really have to start thinking of ways to solve the hidden dangers behind the vassal system, he will give corresponding solutions.

I think that at that time, Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Biao, Zhu Di, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes, even if they were not satisfied with the solution he gave, in the end (well, Wang Hao) would still follow his ideas and solutions. Go and walk.

"."Is it true that we can only cut down the feudal clan?!!"

Zhu Di looked up at Yan Changqing's unwavering expression, and had a vague feeling that Yan Changqing might not be telling the truth.

With Yan Changqing's wisdom in his opinion, he could not say that he could come up with a solution that had the best of both worlds, but at least it would not be a complete solution!

"Anyway, Emperor Wen of Han, Emperor Jing of Han, and Emperor Wu of Han all chose this way."

Seeing Zhu Di's suspicious eyes, Yan Changqing didn't panic at all.

No matter whether Zhu Di really doubted that he had a solution, he would insist that he didn't have a solution, and he used Emperor Wen of Han and Emperor Wu of Han as examples of shielding.
