Daming: Teach the prince about dragon slaying skills at the beginning

Zhu Yuanzhang in this state, even the prince Zhu Biao, would suffer a great crime if he disobeyed him for no reason!

After Zhu Biao, Zhu Yu, Zhu Yan, Zhu Di and other princes all let go of their hands, Zhu Yuanzhang raised his head, looked at Yan Changqing and said word by word:

"If you can't explain the vassal system established by me, and the reason why the vassal rebellion occurred within three or five generations, then no one will be able to protect you today!!!"

"Thirty-six thousand knives, Ling Chi died!!!"

"I said so!!!"

Yan Changqing became more and more confident and flaunted:

"In that case, Ling Chi's death with [-] knives can be avoided today!"

"I said."

Chapter 1: Anxious Zhu Yuanzhang, another thousand-year-old trend? 【Please subscribe, please order】

It is still the small classroom for the professor of "Dragon Slaying Technique", but there is one more Zhu Yuanzhang than before.

The princes such as Zhu Xi, Zhu Fan, and Zhu Di were still sitting in their original seats, while Zhu Yuanzhang was sitting in the last row with Zhu Biao.

On the podium, Yan Changqing stood in front of the blackboard and wrote on the blackboard on the left [Thousands of years, the development and changes of the centralization system! 】.

Then Yan Changqing turned his head, looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and other emperors and princes below and said:

"About 450 years ago, on the land under our feet, the ancient King Yu established the first national dynasty in history, and his name is [Xia]!"

"When King Yu was old, he followed the [Abdication System] of the Chinese ancestors in the tribal state in the past to elect the next successor."

"[The system of abdication] represents the public world."

"That is, the position of the Son of Heaven does not belong to a certain family or surname for a long time. Instead, all the people jointly select talents and talents to decide who is suitable for the position of Son of Heaven!"

"For example, it is possible that His Majesty is in charge of the Son of Heaven today, and it is also possible that I will be the Son of Heaven tomorrow, and it is also possible that another Zhang San or Li Si will become the Supreme Son of Heaven in the future!"

Underneath, I heard Yan Changqing say, "It is possible that their father is in charge of the emperor today, and he may be sitting in the position of the emperor tomorrow." The princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Bian, Zhu Di and others who spoke so rebelliously Prince.

They all couldn't help turning their heads to look at their father Zhu Yuanzhang quietly, and they were extremely worried that Yan Changqing's rebellious words would arouse their father's fury again!

What surprised them was that even Zhu Yuanzhang, the father who heard Yan Changqing utter such rebellious words, still maintained his calm appearance at this moment.

They even saw traces of the expression on the face of their father who was thinking about the meaning behind what Yan Changqing just said! ! !

In fact, Zhu Yuanzhang was indeed thinking.

[Three thousand and 450 years ago? ! ! 】

[Is the legendary Xia Dynasty so far away? ! ! 】

[In addition, how does he know the year and time, which is almost accurate to single digits? ! ! 】

Because in this era, even those who specialize in history, it is difficult to say that they can have an accurate time cognition of the pre-Qin era.

Yan Changqing, who was on the podium, didn't know that the time he said casually made Zhu Yuanzhang fall into surprise and thought again.

Yan Changqing turned around on the blackboard, wrote [Xia Dynasty] on the one hand, and then wrote [Cen Yi system] and [Common World] under [Xia Dynasty], and continued to speak on the other side:

"But after the ancient King Yu died, his son Qi won the throne and passed it on to his descendants!"

"It was also from then on that political power changed from [Chuan Xian] to [Chuan Son], and the throne was passed on from family to family."

"[Family Tianxia] gradually replaced [Gongtian Tianxia], [Abdication System] was replaced by [Hereditary Throne System], and a practice has been formed."

"For example, after the establishment of the Shang Dynasty, the throne was sometimes handed down from father to son, and sometimes from brother to brother, but in general it was in the same family."

"At the same time, Xia Shang at that time had already established a set of administrative management system from the central government to the local government."

"For example, in the central government of the Shang Dynasty, there were ministers, officials, etc., who were in charge of government affairs; local officials named Hou and Bo, and Hou and Bo, as the leaders of the Fang Kingdom subject to the Shang Dynasty, paid tribute to the Shang king regularly and were ordered to conquer."

"Although the country at this time has begun to take shape, it can only be said to be a union of many large primitive tribes and Fang Kingdoms."

"The state power is still relatively loose, and the emperor is more of the sovereign of the country in name."

"And this is the beginning of the central and local system of the country, as well as the hereditary system of the position of emperor!"

Whether it is Zhu Yuanzhang, or Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes, they all listened raptly.

For things like history, whether Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to learn lessons from history, or when other princes were listening to the lectures given by the lecturers in the palace, they were educated by those lecturers in the palace with various historical allusions.

As sons of heaven and princes, they naturally knew more or less about it.

But the past history they know, generally dates back to the Qin Dynasty at most.

Xia, Shang, and Zhou before the Qin Dynasty were of little significance to them.

After all, Qin Fa, as the beginning of a hundred generations, was not a joke.

So now it is rare to be able to understand that Zhu Yuanzhang and princes such as Zhu Biao, Zhu Yu, Zhu Bian, and Zhu Di were more interested in the older Xia, Shang, and Zhou dynasties before Qin.

"Afterwards, about 420 years ago, King Wu of Zhou conquered Zhou and destroyed Shang, and established the Zhou Dynasty!"

"In order to carry out effective rule, King Wu of Zhou granted the land and people in the vast areas outside his direct rule to the royal family, heroes, and King Wu of Zhou's own descendants respectively, allowing them to establish vassal states to defend the Zhou royal family."

"Through the enfeoffment system, the emperor of Zhou strengthened his rule over the local area, expanded his ruled area, and formed a political structure that favored the stars of the Zhou royal family!"

"Under the enfeoffment system, the emperor of Zhou possessed the supreme authority, and the state power also tended to be strict from the looseness of the Xia and Shang dynasties."

"But at the same time, other princes and kings also have relatively strong independence within their own territories."

"Such as the establishment of officials, the establishment of the army, the collection of taxes, etc., it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a country within a country."

"And this is also the reason for the decline of the Zhou Dynasty later."

On the blackboard, Yan Changqing wrote all the way down the Xia Dynasty, from [Abdication System], [Public World], to [Hereditary Throne System], [Family World], and then to Zhou Dynasty [Secretary System].

A tree-like vein gradually took shape.

At this time, whether it was Zhu Yuanzhang, or Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes, they gradually had guesses in their hearts.

Because of such a tree-like context diagram, they had seen it last time.

Last time, in order to explain the inevitability of the abolition of the power of the prime minister, Yan Changqing wrote the 423 diagram of the changes in the power of the monarchy and the power of the prime minister based on the tide of the thousand-year historical development.

[Hm, this Yan Changqing is not going to use the tide of development and changes in the millennium to explain the reason why the vassal system we have formulated will inevitably lead to a vassal rebellion within three or five generations, right? ! ! 】

Zhu Yuanzhang thought with some anxiety in his heart.

Although he asked Yan Changqing to give him a convincing reason enough to explain the reason why the vassal system would rebel within three or five generations.

But it didn't say that Yan Changqing used this kind of flood trend directly based on the historical development and changes over the past thousand years to explain the reasons why the vassal king system would rebel within three or five generations!

Even Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't bear this way of throwing out a thousand-year historical development and change at every turn to prove the reasons for his conjectures and inferences!

Because if Yan Changqing's conjecture and inference are correct, wouldn't that mean that Zhu Yuanzhang violated the general trend of historical development and change for thousands of years? ! !

In particular, he is preparing to completely abolish the power of the prime minister in accordance with the general trend of the development and changes of the last thousand years of monarchy and power of the prime minister.

As a result, in the blink of an eye, he himself went against the general trend of another thousand years of historical development and change? ! !

And what good will happen if it goes against the general trend of historical development and change for a thousand years? ! !

Chapter 1 and Three: Strengthening, Decentralization and Re-strengthening of Centralization! 【Subscribe】

Yan Changqing didn't know what Zhu Yuanzhang was thinking at the moment, and the uneven voice continued:

"Until the Spring and Autumn Period, Zhou Tianzi's power fell, and he could only control the area around the capital."

"At the same time, in order to control more land and people, the princes and kings fought with each other."

"During the Warring States period, some powerful princes were no longer satisfied with their titles, and changed their titles to kings one after another!"

"After 480 years of struggle for supremacy in the Spring and Autumn Period, the Warring States struggle for hegemony."

"Finally, 600 years ago, Qin Wang Yingzheng finally ended the hundreds of years of separatist regimes, and truly established the first unified and centralized imperial dynasty in history-Qin!"

Under the [Spring and Autumn and Warring States Period] after the [Zhou Dynasty], Yan Changqing wrote a big [Qin] again, and wrote the words [Great Unification and Centralization] next to [Qin].

"After the Great Qin was established, the First Emperor Yingzheng learned the lessons of the Zhou Dynasty."

"Implement the system of Sangong and Jiuqing in the central government to manage state affairs."

"Abolishing the enfeoffment system at the local level, replacing it with the prefecture and county system, and receiving local powers from the central government, has achieved direct and effective control over local political power."

"It has further strengthened the centralization of power, consolidated and maintained the unity of the country, and effectively avoided the reappearance of the chaos of the vassal kingdoms in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods!"

"This is a groundbreaking innovation for the enfeoffment system before the Warring States period, because before this, there has never been such a centralized system!"

"And this centralized system has also established the basic pattern of the political system for 600 years since then. It has been used by successive dynasties, and it has been continuously strengthened and improved!"

"Even if one empire after another collapsed due to one reason or another during this period, no matter how divided and chaotic the world is."

"Any king who aspires to compete for the world will eventually re-establish the same unified centralized dynasty!"

"It can be said that the Qin political system has been practiced for a hundred generations, nothing better than this!"

"If there is no great unification of the first emperor Yingzheng, or if the first emperor Yingzheng adopted the Zhou Dynasty's enfeoffment system instead of the prefecture and county system."

"So maybe after the 480 years of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States period, when the vassal kingdoms were separated, there will still be another Spring and Autumn and Warring States period in the next 600 years, and one after another, the vassal kingdoms will separate each other. !"

In Yan Changqing's words, he did not conceal his admiration for the First Emperor Yingzheng.

The First Emperor Yingzheng was not perfect, let alone flawless, and he had many faults in his later years.

But just because he really created a unified dynasty and established a centralized system is enough to cover up all his shortcomings! ! !

The merits outweigh the faults, the merits of great unification and centralization are enough to cover up all subsequent faults!

"Humph!"

Hearing Yan Changqing's praise of the First Emperor Yingzheng and the respect in his words, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but snort coldly.

Although Zhu Yuanzhang also admitted that the achievements of the first emperor Yingzheng were indeed great, Yan Changqing praised the prefecture and county system established by the first emperor Yingzheng, but Zhu Yuanzhang said that the vassal system he formulated would inevitably lead to rebellion in the next three to five generations. !

He is the same emperor as the first emperor, but Yan Changqing treats them differently, which naturally makes him unswerving!

After all, as the founding emperor who fought all the way in the troubled times, no matter which one he was, he was extremely confident.

Even if he admits the achievements of his predecessors, he will not think that he is inferior to his predecessors!

At least for the Founding Emperor!

"Afterwards the Great Qin collapsed, and the Great Han took its place' 々."

"Perhaps Liu Bang, Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty, was trying to learn a lesson and avoid going the old way of the Qin Dynasty, or maybe it was to fulfill the promise of being a king when he was fighting for hegemony in the past."

"Therefore, the meritorious officials, royal family members, and their own descendants were enfeoffed as princes and kings, and princes and vassal states were established to let them defend the central government."

"How, does this sound familiar?!!"

Yan Changqing looked at Zhu Yuanzhang below, Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fang, Zhu Di and other princes laughed.

"Isn't this the enfeoffment system of the Zhou Dynasty just mentioned?!"

The youngest king of Qi, Zhu Yu, blurted out immediately when he heard Yan Changqing's words.

Enfeoffing heroes, royal family members, and their descendants as princes and kings, establishing princes and vassal states, and defending the central government, this is exactly the same as the enfeoffment system of the Zhou Dynasty just heard, and there is not even any change between the two! ! !

Yan Changqing nodded, affirming Zhu Mi's statement, and then, as if seeing what Zhu Mi was thinking, he shook his head slightly and continued:

"The system implemented at the beginning of the Han Dynasty is a bit different from the enfeoffment system of the Zhou Dynasty."

"Perhaps Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty found that after learning the lessons of the Qin Dynasty, he became the same as the Zhou Dynasty in the past."

"So in order to avoid going back to the old path of the Zhou Dynasty, they absorbed the lessons of the Qin Dynasty and the Zhou Dynasty."

"In the end, in addition to enfeoffing heroes, royal family members, and their own descendants, the county system will be implemented in places directly under the central government and within the vassal states!"

"This is the parallel system of prefectures and states in the early Western Han Dynasty!!!"

"At this time, the centralized power that was originally strengthened by the first emperor Yingzheng through the prefecture and county system was destroyed, and the centralized central power that was originally strengthened was once again dispersed among the local princes and vassal states."

Yan Changqing turned around and wrote [Han] again under [Qin] on the blackboard behind him, and then wrote [Prefecture-State Parallel System] next to [Han].
