Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Only Yang Liang was kept in the palace. It was not until the seventeenth year of the founding of the emperor that he was officially allowed to leave the capital and become a vassal.  And at that time, he personally sent him to Taiyuan to take office, and for his sake, more than ten prefectures in Hebei were merged into the merged prefectures, so that as soon as his youngest son became a vassal, he would command the entire more than fifty prefectures in the old Northern Qi Dynasty.  The territory was the largest, the most populous, the most sophisticated soldiers and the most prosperous place. They even gave him the privilege of being able to act conveniently and not be restricted by the law. They just wanted to give him greater rights so that he could control the east of the river as soon as possible without sharing his worries.  The result is that it took the most thought and pampering, but it is also the most useless. There is gold and jade on the outside, but lint on the inside, like a silver gun head.  A dandy. ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? off.  In addition to those big and small shortcomings, greed for money, lust and misbehavior, now he even did things like openly dispatching troops to intercept and kill the emperor's grandson.  Now, he was still telling lies in front of his face without blinking an eye.  Yang Jian shook his head, this son was hopeless.  "Yang Liang, you mobilized troops to attack the prince. This is a fact. No one has wronged you, right?" Yang Jian's words were cold, without any emotion, like the icy wind.  Yang Liang wanted to deny it, but when he looked up and saw the emperor's cold look, he couldn't say anything anymore.  "If you don't speak, you are acquiescing. Very good, at least you haven't told lies in front of me, otherwise you would be bullying me." Yang Jian said coldly, "I will ask you again, are you still planning to intercept and kill me?  After the great grandson, will you blame the king of Jin again? "" Sons and ministers, sons and ministers" Facing the unusually experienced Yang Jian, Yang Yong was speechless.  He knew that the matter had been exposed, and it was useless for him to refute and deny it.  On the contrary, it may anger the father who is in a rage. He does not want to make the emperor even more unhappy at this time.  It has to be.  Finally acquiesced.  It was one thing to see this from Yang Lin's memorial, but it was another thing to see with his own eyes that Yang Liang did not deny it. A fire in Yang Jian's heart was burning fiercely. He really wanted to rush down and kill this unscrupulous man.  The son was beaten to death.  But the queen kept holding one hand on his wrist, and he kept trying to restrain himself.  "I ask you again, were you the one behind the assassination of Tai Sun in Beijing?" Yang Jian asked again.  Yang Liang was stunned for a moment, and then immediately blurted out his denial.  "No, Your Majesty, I have nothing to do with the assassination in Beijing. Your Majesty, the person suspected in the assassination in Beijing is the King of Jin. That is a fact that has been proved and has nothing to do with me." Yang Liang is not a good person.  The person who is willing to suffer is because he wants to deny the things he did, not to mention that the assassination in Beijing was indeed not his fault.  It has nothing to do with it at all, how could he be willing to take the blame for others.  What's more, he still takes the blame for Yang Guang.  He had always disliked Yang Guang and deliberately wanted to deal with Yang Guang.  Who would be willing to take the blame for Yang Guang and let him clear away the suspicion.  Besides, Yang Liang had long since determined that Yang Guang was responsible for the assassination in Beijing.  After all, although the case was kept secret, it was discovered that a person named Yu was involved with him.  That's proof.  Yang Jian did not believe what Yang Liang said at all, "If you dare to do it, you must dare to do it. Don't think that you can deny it without finding evidence." Yang Jian was very angry. If Yang Liang admitted it, he might not be so angry.  "Emperor Father, Queen Mother, you have to believe me. The assassination in Beijing really has nothing to do with me. It was done by King Jin. You have also found evidence about him. It really was not me." Yang Liang  He denied it desperately, and even didn't forget to bring Yang Guang with him.  If he wants to be unlucky, he can't be unlucky alone. He has to pull Yang Guang on his back no matter what. This is not only because he doesn't like Yang Guang, but also because he has the idea of ????not blaming everyone for the law.  If Yang Guang is confirmed to be the mastermind of the assassination in Beijing, then he will not be the first to deal with Yang Lin.  If the law does not punish the public, you may be able to receive leniency.  "It's a pity that he made a mistake with the emperor's idea.  Yang Jian has now completely determined that he is not only the mastermind of the Taiyuan assassination, but also the mastermind of the Beijing assassination.  Yang Liang's denial made Yang Jian very dissatisfied.  "I'm very disappointed in you!" Yang Jian shook his head and sighed, completely disappointed in this son.  "According to the law of the country, your crime should be put to death." Queen Dugu didn't say anything at all. That was because she felt that Yang Liang had gone too far. In addition, the palms of the hands were flesh and the backs of the hands were flesh. The king of Han wanted to assassinate his grandson, twice.  , how could this make her plead for mercy.  However, Queen Dugu was shocked when she heard the emperor said that he should be executed. She only had five sons, how could she let the King of Han be executed? Although he did something wrong, his grandson was fine and he was dealt with strictly, but he couldn't.  Put to death.  "Your Majesty," Queen Dugu said, her tears already flowing uncontrollably.  In his later years, he unexpectedly encountered something like this. His son assassinated his grandson. Now, should his father personally order his son to be killed?  What is thisA human tragedy?  Yang Jian was also moved by the queen's tears and felt extremely sad.  He didn't want to execute Yang Liang, because he was his son.  "Fine! Then I'll spare your life, depose you to a commoner, and exile you to Shannan Fangzhou!" When he heard that he was deposed and exiled, Yang Liang's face turned pale with fear. He originally thought that no matter how severe the punishment was, he would be exempted from office and imprisoned, and at least he would retain the throne.  .  Unexpectedly, the emperor was so ruthless that he immediately deposed him as a commoner and then exiled him to Fangzhou.  Where is Fangzhou? It is the most backward mountainous area in Jingxiang, Shannan.  "Father, Your Majesty, I know that I have sinned, and I will never dare to do it again. Please spare my life. I don't want to go to Fangzhou or die." Yang Liang kept kowtowing, with tears and runny nose coming out. He was frightened.  of.  "Your Majesty, please give Ake another chance." The queen also pleaded for Yang Liang.  Yang Liang nodded quickly, "Your Majesty, please give me another chance. I am willing to ask myself to be the general manager of Yizhou and go to work in Shuzhong." When Yang Jian heard this, he laughed angrily, "You still want to be Yizhou?  Governor, what you think is wonderful!" At this time, the queen said to Yang Jian, "Why not enfeoff Ake to a remote border area and give him a place to establish his own feudal state?" "Fellowing a state?  "Yang Jian paused.  After the founding of the Sui Dynasty, a real feudal system was not implemented. Although the prince was appointed as the general manager of the town, the general manager's office did not mean that it was a feudal state.  The general manager's office covers a large area, with eighteen prefectures as the smallest and more than fifty prefectures as the largest. However, the general managers of each prefecture are not fixed and are often rotated. Yang Guang served as the general manager of Bingzhou twice and the general manager of Yangzhou. Yang Jun successively served in Yangzhou and Bingzhou Qinzhou.  Among Jingzhou and others, only Yang Xiu served as the general manager. Before that, he had been the general manager of Yizhou in Shuzhong for more than ten years, but now he was also transferred to Qinzhou.  Although some of the princes, princes, and other clans in other counties and counties have some positions as stewards and some as generals, none of them have feudal lordships.  This is why Yang Jian initially considered the rebellion of princes caused by the feudal system after the Wei Dynasty, especially during the Jin Dynasty, and did not implement this system of enfeoffing vassal states, but vigorously promoted the centralization system.  But now the queen proposes to give Yang Liang a feudal state and send him to a remote border area, leaving him to fend for himself. This is a way to deal with it.  Although he said he wanted to depose Yang Liang as a citizen and exile him to Fangzhou, he still couldn't bear it in his heart.  After all, he is his son, so it would be a good idea to grant him a kingdom.  But there was no precedent in the Sui Dynasty.  Granting a kingdom is not that simple. Should it be granted to just this one, or will other kings also be granted the title in the future?  Queen Dugu, however, slapped Yang Jian in the face and whispered: "I think this unpaid payment is not an option. I can settle Liang'er now. In the future, after Your Majesty really decides on the successor, for the sake of the other kings' plans, you can also arrange for the kings to be settled."  By dividing the vassal states, we can avoid the tragedy of kings fighting against each other in the future. "The queen has also had this idea for a long time. If the emperor succeeds Yang Yong in the future, it will be for the sake of the stability of the court and for the sake of other princes.  To ensure their safety, the kings of Jin, Shu, Qin, etc. can be enfeoffed.  If you plan to make the King of Jin the crown prince in the future, you can enfeoff Yang Yong, Yang Lin and other kings in advance to avoid constant fighting within the royal family over the right of succession.  "Although enfeoffment can solve some problems, what if the princes oppose the central government and start rebellion in the future?" Yang Jian asked. After all, the Han and Jin Dynasties that implemented the enfeoffment system had such precedents of princes causing rebellion. The Seven Kingdoms Rebellion in the Western Han Dynasty,  The Eight Kings Rebellion in the Western Jin Dynasty is a lesson learned from the past.  Empress Dugu had obviously considered this issue for a long time. "Instead of enfeoffing the land in the heart of the Central Plains, all enfeoffed areas should be enfeoffed to the frontiers, such as Lingnan, Nanyue, Liaoxi, and Southwest. The enfeoffment does not need to be too large. It can only have a few counties, and  By stipulating the number of their soldiers and horses, it can not only protect the court, but also solve the problem of royal succession, and avoid conflicts among the same clan. Even if there is a turmoil in the court, the emperor can summon the kings to calm down the chaos and always maintain the Yang family.  ." Yang Jian pondered.  This is also a way, especially after so many things happened now, Yang Jian, who originally did not consider this issue, began to think about it.  He became the emperor, made his disciples kings, and then let them divide the towns into various places, each of them controlled dozens of towns.  When he was the emperor, there was no problem, but now the overt and covert fighting over the heir has become more and more intense.  Yang Liang even dared to directly mobilize troops to intercept and kill his grandson. If he died, no matter which son became emperor, would the other sons with heavy troops rebel?  The current situation is that there is no enfeoffment but real enfeoffment, and each prince's territory is very powerful.  This is also a serious hidden danger. After his death, who can restrain the powerful kings?  Maybe, enfeoffment is a good idea.  It is called a feudal state, but in fact it is equivalent to removing the powerful kings from their positions as general managers and letting them go to the border to accept the feudal state, so as to eliminate future troubles early.  newThe feudal kingdoms were only set up as one state or several counties. Compared with the vast territory of dozens of states under the general manager's command today, they were of course greatly weakened. At the same time, these new feudal states were only confined to the border areas, which had no influence on the imperial court.  The threat is greatly reduced, and the court can defend the border.  (To be continued)?¡­
