The entire hall could hear the sound of needle drop. All the royal family members, princes of the Eight Banners, Manchu and Han nobles, including several ministers in the study room, couldn't believe their ears. They were breaking the earth around the Qing Dynasty and conferring kings? Will the Qing Dynasty adopt the enfeoffment system again? They no longer have to be empty-handed princes?
Everyone was overjoyed immediately. No one would want to have the land and territory sealed. Compared with the days of staying in the capital all day long, raising dogs, playing hawks and entertaining girls, it is simply a world of difference. Only the title of Baylor can taste it. They all flocked to the overseas enfeoffment, let alone those around the Qing Dynasty.
Although everyone was overjoyed, no one dared to flatter and praise rashly. The enfeoffment around the Qing Dynasty was no better than the overseas enfeoffment, and there were many disadvantages. It had only been more than thirty years since the chaos of San Francisco subsided. How could this master risk it again? When you have the idea of ??enfeoffment, it¡¯s not too late to listen carefully to what¡¯s going on before praising you.
Zhang Penghie was full of doubts. This master had vigorously consolidated imperial power as soon as he became emperor. Why would he uncharacteristically entrust the emperor with enfeoffments around the Qing Dynasty? Not to mention the distant Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms and the Rebellion of the Eight Kings, the Ming Dynasty's 'Jingnan Rebellion' and the Qing Dynasty's 'Three Feudatories' Rebellion were not far apart. What did he think?
When Old Thirteen Yinxiang heard these words, he secretly laughed in his heart. Old Fourteenth was playing a trick to feed the princes and nobles. It is impossible to enfeoff Korea if it is close to Liaodong, nor can the Nanyang vassals be enfeoffed. That big country What Qingwubian can enclose is the territory of the three empires of Russia, Ottoman, and Mogul in the northwest and southwest.
The land bordering Russia and the Qing Dynasty is all bitter cold and sparsely populated. It is estimated that no one is willing to divide it. The territories of the two empires of the Ottoman and Mughal empires are said to be densely populated and richer, but if you really want to go by land, it is better than traveling. America would take twice as long, and it was closer by sea, but what was the difference between enfeoffment overseas?
Seeing that no one said anything, Zhenwu was playing into his own game. He didn't want to waste time grinding his teeth with them. Throwing out this enfeoffment was enough to achieve the purpose of stabilizing and appeasing the royal family members and the nobles of the Eight Banners. At that moment, he raised his butt and stood up. When Bao Fuquan saw it, he quickly sang: "The court is gone."
After everyone bowed and sent Zhenwu off, as soon as they left the main hall of Qianqing Palace, they immediately started talking in twos and threes. Compared with leaving the country overseas, enfeoffment in the surrounding areas of the Qing Dynasty was obviously more attractive. After all, sea voyages are risky. The first voyage to America The losses are not small, and there is no need to worry about it on land. Besides, even though the Qing Dynasty is surrounded by densely populated and civilized lands, it is not a bit better than the barbaric lands of America and Africa.
As soon as Lao Ba Yin left the hall, he caught up with Lao Thirteen Yinxiang, who was running away in a hurry, and said with a smile: "Why is Thirteenth Brother so involved in enfeoffment?"
Yinxiang glanced back, slowed down slightly, and said with a smile: "My eighth brother and my thirteenth brother are also confused."
"I'm confused, why are you walking so fast?" Yin rolled his eyes at him.
"Haha, look what Bago said, there are a lot of things going on these days, so I'm not impatient." Yinxiang said in a flawless manner: "Besides, our brothers have already enfeoffed Africa, and we have no share in the enfeoffment around the Qing Dynasty."
"Don't burn fake incense in front of the real Buddha." Yin said reluctantly: "This enfeoffment is a bit unexpected. What's the reason?"
Yinxiang really didn¡¯t dare to tell about the improvement of Kangxi¡¯s condition. As soon as he thought about it, he smiled and said: ¡°I am afraid that the emperor is planning to take action against the Nanyang vassals, which is the largest granary of the Qing Dynasty.¡±
Yin Ting couldn't help but frown. Old Fourteen had long wanted to annex the Nanyang vassals. He knew this. Could it be that he was about to take action so soon? But now he couldn't spare any troops. Old Fourteen now His attention is on the northwest. He doesn't want to start a war on both sides at the same time.
At this time, Bao Fuquan trotted up to the two of them, and with a quick gesture, he said, "I would like to pay my respects to Prince Lian and Prince Yi."
When they saw Bao Fuquan catching up, they both knew that it was Zhenwu who had summoned him. Yin hurriedly waved his hand and said with a smile: "No courtesy."
Bao Fuquan stood up before smiling slightly and said: "The emperor summoned the eighth and thirteenth masters."
In the West Nuan Pavilion of the Qianqing Palace, Zhenwu paced slowly in the palace with his hands behind his back. It was only a matter of time that the surrounding areas of the Qing Dynasty were enfeoffed. It would be more appropriate to enfeoff those vassal states to a group of royal family members and nobles of the Eight Banners. As for the enfeoffment He was not very concerned about whether the Congress would form an unstoppable force and cause harm to the Qing Dynasty and threaten the imperial power.
Yin, Yin, and Yinxiang came very quickly. After coming in to greet them, Zhenwu said with a smile: "No need to be polite, just sit down."
After the two of them were seated, Bao Fuquan came in again and said, "Your Majesty, the four ministers in the study are handing out signs to see you."
Zhenwu nodded, knowing that they were here for the enfeoffment, so he immediately said: "Let them wait."
Listen to this??, Yin couldn't help being slightly startled, and unconsciously raised his head and glanced, seeing that there was no living annotator in the hall, his heart sank. It seemed that something had really happened. Just as he was thinking about it, Zhenwu had already spoken. I received the news the day before yesterday that Huang Ama's condition has improved greatly and she can speak more fluently. I am planning to go to Rehe. "
Yin suddenly realized when he heard this. No wonder the fourteenth man threw out the surrounding enfeoffments at this time. It turned out to be to appease the royal family members and the princes of the Eight Banners. However, Yinxiang was stunned. The fourteenth man went to Rehe! What's the meaning? Now that I don't know what Kangxi is thinking, wouldn't it be too risky to go there rashly? Kangxi and his two deposed princes, why did they come? Isn't it just a power struggle?
After pondering for a moment, he said: "Your Majesty, in this weather, it may snow at any time, so we should wait until spring next year before setting off."
Spring next year? Zhenwu understood what Lao Shisan meant as soon as he thought about it. He was not well prepared at the moment, so he was asking him to delay the trip, or not go at all, in case something unexpected happened.
Yin reacted very quickly and immediately sorted out the situation. Since Zhenwu was eager to appease the royal family members and princes in the capital, it meant that he felt threatened by Kangxi. For him, if Kangxi regained power, everyone would be Brothers who are close to the Fourteenth Brother will be suppressed and purged. There is no need to consider how to choose.
At the moment, he continued: "In the past year, the emperor has made constant innovations, many of which involve the Eight Banners system. The emperor may not all agree with it. I secretly believe that it is not appropriate for the emperor to go to Rehe at this time."
Seeing what Lao Ba said so directly, Yinxiang relaxed and said: "I agree, the emperor's reform has just begun, and the expansion of the Qing Dynasty has just begun. The emperor must not take risks, and we must learn from the past."
Lessons from the past? Does this refer to the two deposed princes of Kangxi? But are the crown prince and the emperor comparable? Zhenwu frowned slightly, glanced at the two of them, and said: "Emperor Ama is a wise man, and I am not as good at judging times and situations. There is no need to worry. I went here this time, firstly, to show my filial piety, and secondly, I'll ask Huang Ama for advice and discuss it. I can return with a simple carriage and a simple carriage before the year. With my eighth brother and thirteenth brother sitting in the capital, what can I worry about?"
Hearing that the Fourteenth wanted to drive to Rehe in a light carriage, Yinxiang couldn't help but became anxious and said hurriedly: "As long as there are eight brothers in the capital, I will go with the emperor and relieve the emperor's boredom along the way."
This relief from boredom is fake, the support along the way is real. Zhenwu smiled slightly and said: "I can ride a hundred miles a day, so there is no need to relieve boredom. The recruitment and training of the new imperial guard army must not be lax."
Seeing that Zhenwu insisted on going, Yinlue pondered for a moment and said, "The emperor Ama has always liked the third brother, so it would be better for him to accompany the emperor to Rehe."
The third child is Yinzhi? Is Lao Ba trying to drain the fire? The eldest and second sons should be sent to Garopa as soon as possible. In this way, Kangxi would not dare to act rashly even if he had the intention. This is a good idea.
After pondering for a moment, Zhenwucai nodded and said: "The maritime routes of Arabia, Mughal, and Ottoman Empire are about to be opened. The eldest brother and the second brother should also set off for Garopa to make early arrangements. On the other hand, the new provinces in Nanyang will be built. Education is the top priority, and my third brother has always been responsible for education, so we happened to go to Garopa for a field trip together."
After hearing this, both Yin and Yinxiang were relieved. This was equivalent to controlling all the brothers that Kangxi could use in the hands of the navy, which was better than in the army. The two of them hurriedly bowed and said: "Your Majesty, the Holy Ming. "
Zhenwu then shouted softly to the outside: "Announce Zhang Penghie and the four of them to come to the audience." After that, he said to the two of Yin: "These four people are here for the enfeoffment. You should also listen to it. After leaving the palace, publicize it well. The royal family Clan relatives and princes of the Eight Banners also need to be comforted, which will help implement the new policy in the future."
Zhang Penghie, Xiao Yongzao, Song Zhu, and Funing'an filed in. After greeting him, Zhenwu sat down as usual. After the four people thanked him and took their seats, Xiao Yongzao bowed and said after a slight hesitation: "Your Majesty, you must love your family and show respect. Wei Chang starts from the family state and ends in the world. The implementation of enfeoffment is not only to extend favors, but also to protect the royal family, not only to appease the world, but also to consolidate the frontiers.
"However, the harms of enfeoffment are everywhere. It not only restricts the imperial power, but also worries about alienating the brothers and sisters of the Tian family, and also worries about the separation of feudal towns. I sincerely pray to the emperor to be careful. "
Seeing him speak, Zhang Penghie followed suit: "Your Majesty is well versed in the past and present. He is as clear-eyed about the disadvantages of enfeoffment as a fire. He has a broad vision and far-reaching holy concerns. I sincerely pray to Your Majesty for your enlightenment."
Zhenwu pondered for a moment and then said: "The vassal vassal of the Qing Dynasty has always had its name but no real reality. It can neither be a vassal of the Qing Dynasty nor have any real economic benefits. Instead of doing this, it is better to extend the favor to a group of royal family members and princes of the Eight Banners. Dear Sir, only in this way can we truly have the effect of a barrier.
How am I not aware of the disadvantages of enfeoffment? However, times have changed, and the pros and cons are constantly changing. The Qing Dynasty can expedition to Europe, America, and Africa, so how can it be afraid of neighboring countries? Now it is no longer a world of cavalry and archery, and firearms have been completely??Can determine the outcome of a war, do you know what is the greatest feature of firearms? "
The biggest feature of firearms? Several people were stunned when they heard this. What does this have to do with enfeoffment?
