The farce in Yanying Palace was a farce, but it was just a small episode. The emperor got angry and demoted several troublemakers, and the banquet continued.

At the banquet, the emperor also announced the decree of the true seal. The Political Affairs Hall was responsible for the matter and was about to come up with a list of the true seals.

"The titles of all the meritorious officials and soldiers may be adjusted, but they are rewarded according to merit. In addition, the actual titles of the founding country will be granted as real titles, with fiefs and households and citizens."

When the emperor personally confirmed the news, the ministers were all happy.

King Cunxiao of Wei laughed and couldn't help asking the emperor, "After the actual title, will the vassals and princes leave the capital and become a vassal state, and then they will not leave the vassal state?"

This is also a concern for many ministers.

They all knew that the real throne was to be assigned to the frontier. If they could not leave the vassal state after the throne was divided, they would have to be a barbarian.

"The division of the fiefs and grants to the town is to reward merits, and the princes can still hold official positions in the court."

Not only are the heroes of different surnames, but also the royal family members, they can also hold official positions in the court after the feudal period, as long as they are talented and meritorious. If they do not serve, they really need to return to the fiefdom, especially their families must stay in the vassal state.

Of course, the court will also consider the education of these vassals and other issues. Therefore, those who are eligible to study in Chongwenguan, Imperial College and other schools. When they grow up, they can also be selected to be a palace guard in the Qinxunyiwei Mansion.

This can also be regarded as a disguised proton, which can more effectively strengthen the relationship between the Central Plains and the princes.

"It's good, it's good." Cunxiao laughed. No matter where he was enthroned, it would not prevent him from continuing to become an official in the Central Plains. It would be great. It would be fine if both were not delayed. There was a fief that could be heredited on the border, and there was no hindrance on the Central Plains.

All the ministers also felt relieved.

In fact, the prime ministers had a lot of controversy about this point before. For example, Xiao Yu and Chen Shuda believed that the royal family members were divided into feudal states and would become vassal states after they were eighteen years old. After that, they would enter the capital to pay tribute once every two to three years, and then they would not leave the fiefdom during the rest of the time. Du Yan even proposed that after the royal family members became vassal, they would not leave the vassal, nor would they enter the capital, so as to avoid trouble in the future.

On the contrary, Hou Mo and Chen Yi proposed that the children of the royal family should be kept in the capital. Although they were divided into feudals, they would never be granted vassals. The fiefdoms were only managed by state officials, and they could rent and earn taxes to avoid rebellion in the local area.

These two ideas were actually more famous in later generations. The Ming Dynasty did not allow vassal kings to enter the capital, enfeoffment, and housed in local palaces, and even could not easily leave the location of the palace. However, the Qing Dynasty happened to be the opposite, and the Qing Dynasty did not allow vassal kings to leave the capital.

During the Tang Dynasty, at first, they were enfeoffed as a royal family and a vassal country, but later there were rebellions by King You of Qi, and others. Then they were not allowed to become a vassal country later. Especially after Xuanzong ascended the throne, he simply established a place like the Ten Kings Court and Baisun Court, which specialized in captivity, and sent special personnel to take care of the royal family, which was extremely strict.

Each dynasty has its own practices, and each has its pros and cons.

Luo Cheng always believed that the royal family should be a helper and guard the country and the dynasty, rather than always guarding against the enemy.

The Qin Dynasty unified the world and was so powerful, but because the First Emperor weakened the royal family too much, the result was that Zhao Gao and Li Si, the eunuch of the court and the prime minister of the court, took charge of the state power. The emperor became only puppets, and no one in the world could protect the emperor.

After the Han Dynasty established the country, it enfeoffed all the kings. It can be said that if this were not the case, the Han Dynasty might have perished in two lifetimes, and the Lu seized the throne, and perhaps it would have become the world of the Lu family.

The demise of the Cao Wei regime can also be said to be due to excessive prevention of the royal family, and the royal family could not protect the court. The Sima family usurped the Cao family's power and established the Jin Dynasty. Therefore, they learned from the lessons of the Cao family, divided the royal family into large numbers, and gave great power that the Han Dynasty kings had never had. They launched a horse to command troops and dismounted horses to manage the people. As a result, because the royal family had too much power and were mostly enfeoffed in their hearts, the Eight Kings Rebellion was led.

In fact, the policies of all dynasties are just to repair some errors in the policies of the previous dynasty, modify and go around, nothing new.

Luo Cheng hopes that the royal family can become the imperial guards and an important force in the imperial power, but he must also prevent them from becoming overwhelmed and threaten the imperial power in turn.

So he finally decided to divide the border into bribes and implement the order to promote grace, and control the military power of the ban.

As long as the military power, economic power, and even legislative and judicial power of the country are controlled by the court, we can achieve a balance and not lose control.

We must not only give the princes a certain amount of strength, but also not only become a pig to raise, but also make them too strong.

As for the place where the fining was divided, Luo Cheng was even more cautious. After countless thoughts, Luo Cheng decided on the four major directions of the fining.

To the east, the land of white water and black water was used to enfeoff. It was the territory of the people of the Marines, but the land was large, with many Marine tribes and relatively scattered. At present, they were still quite surrendered to the court, and it was fine to enfeoff some princes. In the future, the princes grew stronger, immigrated and reproduced, and then expanded the territory, and slowly turned these wilderness areas into the territory of the Han family.

To the south, it is divided into places south of Guangnan Road, where it is Linyi and Zhenla, and further south is Funan Kingdom.

In the southwest, it can be divided into south of Yunnan and northwest, it can be divided into Qinghai.

As for the Western Regions, although they were still under the Western Turks at this time, Luo Cheng believed that the territory of the Western Regions was relatively important and should be directly under the jurisdiction of Dao County after the imperial court conquered in the future.

As for the northern areas, counties and counties have been established in the north and south of Yinshan Mountains, and the imperial court directly under the jurisdiction. As for the northern areas of the desert, the imperial court does not intend to enfeoff there for the time being.

The Xi and Qi land in the north of Yanshan Mountain will enfeoff a small number of children of the royal family, forming a situation where the royal family and Xi Qi coexist.

This is a big strategic layout. The direction and scope of the enfeoffment have been determined, but who will be enfeoffed and how much place will be enfeoffed, and this will still be discussed and drafted in detail. The list will not be released yet.

Although the specific feudal was not issued yet, the ministers had already received the emperor's personal affirmation and were all in a good mood. Although there were prime ministers like Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui and Wei Zheng who firmly opposed feudalism, they believed that real feudalism was not a good thing, and that he would weaken the power of the court and might even pose a threat in the future.

After all, if the real title is granted, it will have to be given to the population. This prince gives several thousand and that one gives several hundred. This is not a small number. Adding up will bring about a large outflow of people.

Moreover, they also believed that it was difficult to survive in places like Baishan Hei River, Qinghai Lake, Tiannan Chameng, and Yunnan South, let alone long-term development. In the past, the court not only had to give it to people, but also sent troops to them. The barbarians were everywhere, and it was hard to say that the country would be destroyed.

But the emperor insisted on the ban.

If the vassal of the border is to strengthen the power of the royal family, the second is to reward the meritorious officials, and the third is to expand the territory. If the border marquis stands behind a few generations, the border problems may be greatly reduced, and the court's border expenditures will be reduced, let alone the territory can be expanded.
