Hearing Yan Changqing's last words, Zhu Yuanzhang, who had lowered his head at first, could not help but look up, and looked at Yan Changqing on the podium with dim eyes.
"For example, Liu Bang, Emperor Gaozu of the Western Han Dynasty, and Emperor Hui of the Han Dynasty, Liu Ying, when they were in power, all the princes and kings of the Western Han Dynasty with the same surname were either the sons of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty, or the brothers who grew up together with Emperor Hui of the Han Dynasty. They had deep feelings for each other. .”
"That's why all the local princes and kings can work together with the emperor and the central court, follow orders, and defend the central government!"
"Under such circumstances, the implementation of the vassal system and the existence of vassal kings are indeed conducive to the stability and well-being of the country's borders!"
"For the country, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages!"
"And the advantages of such advantages outweigh the disadvantages. Before the abdication of the first generation of emperors, they continued to exist and were clearly visible."
"Even after the second generation of emperors succeeded to the throne, the vassal system and the existence of vassal kings still played a positive and positive role for the entire country."
"Normally speaking, the combined time of the reigns of the two generations of emperors can basically be close to a hundred years!"
"However, a policy can still play a positive and active role in nearly a hundred years, and the advantages outweigh the disadvantages."
"Such a policy, from the perspective of the founder and executor, why is it not implemented?!"
Yan Changqing looked at the princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fang, Zhu Di and other princes and asked back.
Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes who originally believed that the vassal system and the vassals would be the source of future national rebellion, all thought about it, and re-examined the vassal system and the vassals The meaning and pros and cons of existence.
"Just like the salary system of the royal clan of the Ming Dynasty originally formulated by His Majesty, from His Majesty's point of view, can it be said that there is something wrong with the salary system of the royal family clan formulated by His Majesty?!"
"Including the prince, His Majesty has only seventeen sons so far. With the power of one country, is there any problem supporting a dozen princes?!"
"Even according to the data that has been done before, in the fifth generation of the Ming Dynasty, that is, in the 92nd year of Hongwu, there were only 1 royal family members of the Ming Dynasty."
"Supporting [-] members of the royal family, although there is pressure on the imperial court, it is only a pressure."
"At least the issue of supporting the fifth generation of the Ming Dynasty's royal family will not become a problem that will drag down and crush the Ming Dynasty in the future."
"There will be no problems with this royal clan's salary system when His Majesty is still around."
"Even if His Majesty passes away, within a hundred years, there will still be no major problems with such a royal family salary system."
"It will be 100 years later when there is a real problem with the royal clan's salary system."
"For Your Majesty, why isn't a royal family salary system that has no problems within a hundred years not implemented?!"
Hearing Yan Changqing's rhetorical question again, the princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fun, Zhu Di and other princes frowned even more, and the thinking look on their faces became more obvious.
Zhu Yuanzhang, on the other hand, gradually cheered up from the original depressed state, his bent waist straightened again, and his whole person was like a lion king with renewed vitality and fighting spirit.
"Now you can comment on the drawbacks of the original royal family salary system and the vassal enfeoffment system with such a high and detached attitude."
"That's because you have used the quantitative deduction method of mathematics, and the general trend and general trend of the development and changes of the centralization of the great unification for thousands of years."
"Let you jump out of the length of decades of life, and stand on a height beyond the long history of thousands of years!"
"Only now have the qualifications and the opportunity to freely comment on the original royal family salary system and the vassal prince enfeoffment system, and talk about the disadvantages."
"But in fact, for any person, it is extremely remarkable to be able to see a hundred years in the distance!"
"At least the former Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty and today's His Majesty can look far into the distance for a hundred years."
"And what about you, can you see within a hundred years, or even a hundred years away?!"
Yan Changqing looked at the princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes, and asked a third rhetorical question.

Chapter 1: The vassal system that does more harm than good, and the responsible ancestors [Please subscribe, please order in full]
After listening to Yan Changqing's third rhetorical question, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help nodding his head repeatedly, expressing his agreement with what Yan Changqing said.
【Yes! 】
[Looking at the century-old, this is us! ! 】
[Our vision is to have such a long-term perspective~! ! ! 】
[Whether it is the salary of the royal family and relatives we originally formulated, or the system of enfeoffing vassal kings, there is nothing wrong! 】
[At least when we are still in power, even within a hundred years, there will be no problems with these two systems! 】
[When these two systems have problems, it will be a hundred years later. 】
[We can guarantee that there will be no problems with the policies implemented during our reign, or even within 100 years. 】
[Then we, as ancestors, have already done our best! 】
[Problems that arise a hundred years later should naturally be resolved by the descendants of the old Zhu family a hundred years later. 】
[If these problems cannot be solved, then the descendants of the old Zhu family must be unworthy and ashamed of his ancestor! 】
At this point, Zhu Yuanzhang has completely recovered, and his body is once again filled with the spirit of fighting against the sky and never admitting defeat.
At the same time, Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes were also wandering around the princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di and other princes.
He seemed to want to see if they had the same long-term vision that he could see a hundred years away, or even a hundred years away.
It also seems to want to see whether they can estimate and guess what their future descendants will look like through their current appearance, and whether they can solve the problems that will arise after a hundred years of Ming Dynasty.
Feeling the sizing eyes of his father Zhu Yuanzhang falling on him from time to time, the princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Yan, Zhu Di and other princes all cried out in their hearts.
Have they looked into the distance for a hundred years? ! !
There is a fart! ! !
Fart they have one, or even many.
But looking at the eyes of a hundred years, who can tell them how to do it? ! !
They don't know how to do it within a hundred years, let alone the super long-term vision beyond a hundred years.
Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang's high-spirited and confident posture, Yan Changqing smiled softly, and said again:
"The vassal king system, although it is not wrong from the perspective of the person who created it at the time."
"But when we look back at the overall history and judge its historical role from the perspective of latecomers, we will eventually discover a fact."
"In terms of a dynasty spanning hundreds of years, the vassal system within the first 100 years of the dynasty has positive and positive effects on the maintenance of imperial power, the consolidation of rule, and the stability and well-being of the world and borders. positive meaning."
"The vassal system at this stage may be said to have more advantages than disadvantages."
"And this time, in terms of the normal reign of the emperor of the dynasty, is generally in the stage of the first and second generation emperors."
"But when the time comes to the middle and late stages of the dynasty 100 years later."
"The third generation of the emperor succeeded to the throne. At this time, the relationship between the emperor and the princes and vassals has begun to change from a brother-in-law relationship to an uncle-nephew relationship, or a cousin relationship."
"It's difficult to see each other three or two times a year. The relationship between the two parties has begun to drift apart, and mutual trust has also begun to decrease."
"At the same time, the world will recover and develop due to recuperation, and the power and influence of local princes and vassal states will also expand and grow stronger."
"And when the fourth generation of emperor succeeds to the throne, the relationship between the emperor and the princes and vassals will change from the original uncle and nephew relationship to the more distant relationship of uncle, nephew and brother."
"At that time, the emperor and the local princes and vassals should have no real feelings to speak of apart from blood ties."
"At the same time, if the power of the vassals and vassal states is not suppressed at this time, it will start to be sufficient to achieve substantive independence, and the contradictions between the central court and the local vassal states will begin to intensify."
"Because the local princes and vassal states will subconsciously develop towards a unified and centralized country under the general trend of the development and change of the unified and centralized power for thousands of years, and the innate influence of the general trend. and go."
"As for the local vassal states, if they want to become a unified centralized state, they will naturally need to annex other vassal states."
"And in the end, like a snake swallowing an elephant, it annexed the last unified central dynasty and replaced it by itself!!!"
"This process is irreversible, and there is also irreconcilability between the central court and the local princes and vassal states."
"At this point, there are only two paths that can be taken by the central court and the local princes and vassal states."
"Either dismantle the Zhou Dynasty and replace it like the Spring and Autumn vassal states!"
(空 .白)⑥⒐⑧9⒉5⑧5O 內部群:⒉⒉0⑤23①4⒐
"Either, like the Western Han Dynasty when the vassal king was cut down, suppress the vassal kingdom and unify it again!"
"And no matter which path you choose to take, the rebellion of the local princes and vassals is inevitable!"
"Similarly, regardless of whether the central court can successfully suppress the local vassals and kingdoms in the end, as long as there is a rebellion in the local vassals and kingdoms, it will be a loss of national power for a country."
"If it is light, it will lose its national power like the Western Han Dynasty; if it is serious, it will be like the Western Jin Dynasty!"
"In the end, judging from the influence of the entire dynasty for hundreds of years, the existence of the vassal system generally does more harm than good."
When Yan Changqing said this, Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fang, Zhu Di and other princes couldn't help frowning deeply.
...... 0
No matter how important the vassal king and the vassal king system played in the first 100 years of a dynasty.
But as a son of heaven, a future prince, and a prince who may become a prince in the future.
They must all pay more attention to the possible disadvantages of the vassal king and the vassal king system in the last two to three hundred years of a dynasty.
After all, at this moment, it is rare to be able to take advantage of the general trend and general trend of the development and changes of the great unification and centralization for thousands of years, and jump out of the shackles of the length of the current life span of just a few decades.
They must seize this opportunity to overlook the changes in the vassal system that existed in a dynasty for hundreds of years, and strive to solve the hidden dangers brought about by the vassal system!
Even if Zhu Yuanzhang was thinking about the problems that would arise a hundred years later, the descendants of the old Zhu family would solve them a hundred years later.
But, isn't that because I don't know what problems will arise in the old Zhu's family a hundred years from now? ! !
And now that I have the opportunity to know what problems may arise in the old Zhu family hundreds of years later, they, as "ancestors", naturally want to solve the problems for the descendants of the old Zhu family in a hundred years.
As a responsible "ancestor" who expects future generations to live better than themselves, how can they have the heart to let the problems they left behind cause troubles to future generations after one or two hundred years? ! !

Chapter 111: What has been done will be done again in the future, and what has been done will be done again in the future【Please subscribe, please order in full】
Looking at Zhu Yuanzhang who was in deep thought and the princes including Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di, etc., Yan Changqing finally concluded:
"Finally, let's go back to the Daming vassal system established by His Majesty."
"Although His Majesty has also learned the lessons of the Western Han vassal system, he only gave the title of vassal to the princes, without the reality of breaking the ground. He just said that they should be responsible for defending the border and defending the central government, and not let them intervene in local government affairs. "
"but!"
"Jiedu envoys in the middle and late Tang Dynasty didn't even have the title of vassal king, not to mention the reality of cracking the ground."
"But so what?!!"
"Fist is power, fist is power!"
"Jiedushi who has mastered military power, financial power, political power, and civil rights, in essence, how can he not be called a prince?!"
"And the vassal town controlled by the Jiedushi, which is completely independent from the "[-]", in essence, how can it not be called a vassal state?!!"
"Similarly, even if the Daming vassal at this moment has no reality of cracking the ground, so what?!"
"As long as the Daming King still holds military power in his hands, this fundamental power!!!"
"Others, such as financial power, political power, and civil rights, will slowly gather in the hands of the Daming King sooner or later."
"During the Western Zhou Dynasty, the princes and vassals were divided into feudal vassals, and the vassals and vassals rebelled."
"During the Western Han Dynasty, the princes and vassals were also entrusted, and the princes and vassals also rebelled."
"During the Western Jin Dynasty, the princes and vassals were entrusted again, and the princes and vassals rebelled again."
"During the Tang Dynasty, the envoys were also entrusted with envoys, and the envoys were also rebellious."
"What has been, will come again!"
"What has been done, will be done again!"
"Today's vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty, in the final analysis, are nothing more than reenacting the old events of the vassal kings Jiedushi of the Western Zhou Dynasty, Western Han Dynasty, Western Jin Dynasty, and Tang Dynasty."
Zhu Yuanzhang, who was sitting at the end of the classroom, heard Yan Changqing's last words, his whole body was struck by lightning, his eyes widened, and he murmured unconsciously:
"What has been, will come again!"
"What has been done, will be done again!"
