Li Chen finally couldn't help asking a question that had been lingering in his mind for a long time. He asked: "Why doesn't Emperor Father use any means to stop him? Zhao Xuanji's support of the puppet is just the beginning. Once he is sufficiently prepared, it will definitely be
He plans to usurp the throne personally, so..."
"Will not."
Emperor Daxing seemed to have expected this question from Li Chen, and he said with a half-smile: "Zhao Xuanji... is a dog I have raised for decades. I personally fished him out of the mud. How many of them did he have?"
I know very well how much meat the fangs can eat. The most he can do is to support the puppet new emperor to ascend the throne. Once he has the idea of ​​usurping the throne, King Ning, King Wen, and other vassal kings in the world will be the first to tolerate him.
"
Li Chen took a breath and couldn't help but sigh at the courage of Emperor Daxing.
Most people really can't be so confident, but Emperor Daxing did it.
Emperor Daxing continued: "The problem with the vassal king is that he is too independent. He has military power and political power. As long as the court is slightly weakened, he can completely ignore any orders from the court and form his own system. This is a serious situation.
It has been accumulated day and night for more than 360 years. When Taizu divided the princes and governed the country according to the family, and the emperor's blood relatives maintained the stability of the country, the seeds of this problem were already planted. "
Li Chen couldn't help but ask: "With Taizu's great talent and strategy, can't you see the problems in it?"
"I can see it, but there's nothing I can do about it."
Emperor Daxing took a few more breaths and said: "This management system, if the emperor is capable enough, is the most unbreakable system. Blood brothers are better than outsiders taking over the power. The task of guarding the border is not left to the princes.
, must also be handed over to those marshals and generals. If the vassal king rebels, the world will still be named Li. But if the ministers rebel and the country changes hands, which one is more important?"
"Looking at Taizu again, he rose from a humble beginning. Among rural clans, the most reliable relationship is blood relatives. Even if the parents are divided, there will always be discord. But if outsiders invade, it will always be the brothers with the same surname from all over the country who unite.
Unanimously speaking to the outside world, let's look at Taizu's methods. His prestige and methods are all the strongest in the world. He has dominated for generations and has become truly invincible in heaven and earth. The system he left behind can guarantee the peace of the Qin Dynasty for a hundred years.
It's fine, but Taizu can't control what happens a hundred years from now. It all depends on future generations."
"So Taizu once said that the emperor of the Qin Dynasty should put the country and the people first, be careful from beginning to end, and if there is any dishonesty, heaven and earth will punish him without resentment. It can be seen that the current situation may have been predicted by the predecessors.
But humans are not divine and cannot live forever. Over the past thousands of years, China has gone through many dynasties. The Zhou Dynasty lasted eight hundred years. The general trend of the world is that if it is divided, it will unite, and if it unites for a long time, it will unite. Who can survive? What can human power do?
, it’s just about focusing on the current spring and autumn.”
Li Chen was silent for a long time after hearing this, and sighed: "My son, I understand."
Emperor Daxing pinched Li Chen's arm and said: "I have the same idea. Originally, in my imagination, the roots of disaster had already been laid in the Qin Dynasty. After more than three hundred years of accumulation, it has exploded now.
There is a price to be paid. My ability is limited, so I can only delay it for a while. It is better to seek a glimmer of hope for the Li family in a desperate situation than to change hands and become the king of the country. It is the chaos of the vassal kings. Da Qin will still be Da Qin.
