Established a millennium family since King Wu defeated Zhou

Chapter 348 End
How many years has Chang'an City not seen the current scene?

These Zongwang and Chehou of the Liu family, like eggplants beaten by frost, entered Chang'an City in disgrace.

In Changle Palace.

Luo Jing stood in the hall, Liu Heng circled around him, and then he felt relieved, patted his shoulder and laughed loudly: "Ah Jing, it's good that you didn't get hurt, you did a good job this time, unexpectedly It’s such a big deal soon.”

Luo Jing is clear that the information sent by the family saves most of the time. What he did was to make some ordinary and correct choices at the right time.

After Liu Heng praised Luo Jing, he encouraged Zhou Yafu and the others, and then he turned his attention to the shivering prince.

Visible to the naked eye, Liu Heng, who was smiling just now, turned into a face full of anger in an instant. He wanted to find a sharp sword and stab all his relatives to death one by one, but his reason still made him recover. come over.

Liu Heng walked around the crowd, and then said with emotion: "When King Luo Wen just returned to power, I wanted to create a prosperous world like King Luo Wen, so I asked King Wen how to make the big man always prosperous and high-spirited. Woolen cloth?
King Wen said: You only need to find out the troubles of the big man's confidant and solve them, and the big man will prosper forever.

I asked again: What is the big man's confidant's trouble?

King Wen said: "The troubles of your heart and soul are changing all the time. If you solve a serious trouble, a new one will appear. I don't know what you are going to face."

After the death of King Wen, I have been everywhere in the world, full of loyal ministers and good generals, the people of the big man also have their hearts towards the royal family, and the benevolent government is widespread. I really can't find the weakness of the big man.

I didn't expect, I didn't expect that the big man's confidant's troubles were not outside, but inside, among my blood and blood clan.

Which one of you is not the descendant of Emperor Taizu Gao, which one is not Liu's Zongwang Chehou, which one is not the lord of a country, and which one of you has never made an oath in Changle Weiyang.

Even if the big river becomes as thin as a belt, even if Mount Tai is as small as the gravel on the roadside, your wealth and glory will not change. This is the oath given to you by the royal family, but the premise is that you must loyally defend the royal family.

I can't help but want to ask, isn't what the royal family gave you enough?
Your land fills every inch of your kingdom and marquis. Your gold, silver and jewels are as numerous as sand grains on the river beach, and even the warehouses cannot be piled up. You wear brocade clothes and eat delicacies from seafood and mountains. Going to seize the little food and coins that the people have to live on!

With such greed, even the legendary Taotie is far from being able to compare with you.

You have plundered the people's money, haven't you thought that every piece of poor money minted now will eventually turn into the anger of the people?

How long did it take for the Qin Dynasty to perish!
Forget it!

The moment I became an only husband and was overthrown, do you Liu family members think you can take care of yourself?
How stupid.

It's just plain stupid. "

Liu Heng became more angry as he spoke, Luo Jing quickly stepped forward to support him and said, "Your Majesty, there is no need for you to be angry with them. These insects are not as good as a single hair of yours. There are many loyal ministers and good generals in this world, and there are also generals in the Liu clan. A character that Sheji puts in her heart."

Luo Jing said again in a low voice: "Your Majesty, after all, these people are clan relatives, and the historian is here, so you should not leave a reputation of being harsh to clan clan. After that, I will pay a good visit to these princes and kings."

Liu Heng glanced movedly at the caring Luo Jing, then looked at the group of Liu clan kings who only knew how to make troubles and poach their own corners, and sighed: "Ah Jing, if you were the Liu clan, I would seal the entire Zhao land to you." you."

Luo Jing just smiled, he believed that Liu Heng really thought so, but that was impossible.

……

The next day.

An imperial decree came out from the ban, the king of Chu tried to rebel against him, expelled the country, and exiled 3 people in the country to Lingnan.

The original state of Chu was divided into five parts, three parts were designated as court counties, one part was rebuilt, and the third son of the king of Chu was loyal to the court, so he would inherit the throne;

As soon as this imperial decree came out, countless courtiers wrote to oppose it, saying that "those who rebel and seek rebellion are not punished with capital punishment, which is not enough to demonstrate the majesty of the court's laws.

Although His Majesty is kind, he should also have a sharp heart, otherwise, how can he shock the world in the long run? "

Liu Heng issued a letter to the ministers: "In the past, when Emperor Gaozu was the emperor, when the princes and kings with different surnames conspired against each other, only the chief evil was punished, and the rest were all exiled, and they were even given a chance to return to Chang'an. Praise the benevolence of Emperor Gao.

Now those who sit in the law are all my relatives. The Han Dynasty ruled the world with filial piety, and the blood relatives were the most important. If they were treated too harshly, wouldn’t they be setting a bad example for the world?
Since I came to the throne, I have ruled the world with benevolence, treated my subjects kindly, commuted sentences and killed them carefully, so I thought deeply about it and should be exiled. "

Naturally, a group of people praised Liu Heng's benevolence, but more petitions flooded in. Back then, Wang with a different surname punished the chief villain, and now the princes and princes of the Liu family should also punish the chief villain. This is a rebellion after all, how can it be easily bypassed?
Amid the turmoil of the outside world, Luo Jing took someone to meet the old King of Chu. The King of Chu was a little surprised that Luo Jing would come to see him, and changed his attitude in Luoyang City. It can be said that it is unbelievable, Wen Sheng Comforting him, he said: "Your Majesty, don't worry too much. Your Majesty is benevolent today, and family is the most important thing. Your life will be fine. Be careful when you eat and drink, and pay attention to the threshold when you go out. Walking on high places such as colonnades, if you have an accident, His Majesty will definitely be sad."

Therefore, the King of Chu was flattered, bowed directly in the direction of the palace, and said in a sobbing voice: "The grass people are really ashamed of your majesty's kindness, please report back to your majesty, the grass people must reform themselves."

Luo Jing didn't speak, but finally gave the old king of Chu an inexplicable look, and then left with a group of people including Shi Shiran, the historian.

Therefore, the king of Chu was slightly relieved at first, and then suddenly woke up from his sleep, dripping with cold sweat, his face was pale and full of fear.

The conversation between the two spread quickly, and everyone did not expect that the emperor really wanted to save King Chu's life, but simply exiled him.

Just when many courtiers gave up, news came that the king of Chu committed suicide in fear of crime, and left a suicide note, which said, "I have heard about the troubles of these days, but I didn't expect to be affected by the sinner's fault." I am extremely ashamed to have betrayed His Majesty's sage, and I can only die to atone for my sin and repay the grace of God.

Your Majesty is wise and wise, and I only hope that your Majesty will live forever and be safe forever. "

King Chu's suicide in fear of crime was beyond everyone's expectations, and then most people found that this might be the best ending.

Although there is already a lot of experience in exile in Lingnan, with the physical fitness of these dignitaries, the probability of surviving the exile is only half, not to mention that they may die directly on the way.

It is also very good to the emperor, the reputation of benevolence and righteousness is almost improved, and it directly eliminates the opposition of the courtiers.

The hearts of the people are also happy.

The death of the King of Chu solved many more problems than his stupid life. For the King of Chu who committed suicide in fear of crime, naturally he couldn't even get the posthumous posthumous title, and the court gave him a bad posthumous posthumous title.

But at least his status as a vassal king was restored, and the number of exiles from the Chu Palace in Lingnan was greatly reduced. Those younger children were able to stay in the Central Plains instead of going to the Lingnan area. This is Liu Heng's greatest kindness.

Once the king of Chu with the most serious problem is solved, the remaining princes and kings will be very simple.

According to the law of the Han Dynasty, the princes were directly seized and expelled from the country on the grounds that they committed crimes.

Half of the land was divided into fiefdoms, and favors were given to the sons of the princes and kings. The eldest son inherited the throne, and the rest of the sons were all Chehou, and the remaining half of the land was turned into counties.

Over the past few decades, as the population has gradually increased, the largest county even has a population of one million, so it is inevitable to divide the new county from the old large county.

Now it happens to be promoted through this matter.

This is a major event that shakes the world. Since King Luo Wen was in power, the imperial court began to build princes. In addition to Tweeting, the number of princes and kings of the Liu family in the world today is really quite a lot.

This time, five princes and thirteen princes lost their country at once. Although the court re-established sacrifices, this is the first time that a prince whose land is less than one county.

To a certain extent, these clan kings are no longer qualified to be called princes and kings. How can such a big change not attract people's attention?
The new emperor has done such a great deed not long after he ascended the throne, and countless people are waiting for what the emperor will do next.

As the princes and kings of Shandong were continuously suppressed, Chang'an became more and more dazzling in the hearts of the people of the world.

----

Due to the existence of Dong'ahou Luojing, the incident of "Zhu Liu Lost the Country" is extremely well-known and has always been talked about on the Internet. Netizens jokingly called it "a bloody case caused by a copper coin".

At the very beginning of this incident, even the Han court did not expect such a big reaction, but with Luo Jing's vigorous actions, the incident was rapidly expanded, and Emperor Hanwen took this opportunity to implement the next step of Tweeting, That is to deprive those distant clans of the feudal state.

This was a landmark event that strongly maintained the centralization of the Han court, and laid a solid foundation for the Han Dynasty to move towards its peak and prosperity. ——"History of the Rise and Fall of the Han Dynasty"
