Chapter 327 Xiao Yu Shang Shu
100 years ago, during the Southern and Northern Dynasties, the world was divided into three parts. The Eastern Wei Dynasty occupied the Central Plains, the Western Wei Dynasty occupied the Guanlong, and the Southern Liang Dynasty ruled the river. It was originally a three-legged confrontation. Although there were many battles with each other, each had its own advantages and disadvantages. Negative, hard to determine strength.

However, following the Eastern Wei rebel general and Jieren Hou Jingfu rebelled against Nanliang, [-] rebels went south like a broken bamboo.

In the Hou Jing Rebellion, it was not only the arrogant and ignorant Emperor Wu of Liang Xiao Yan and his clan who paid a heavy price, but also the people of the Southern Dynasties and those aristocratic families entrenched in the south of the Yangtze River.

Hou Jing was originally a Hu, and he was at odds with the family. After Hou Jing broke Jiankang and won the Three Wus, he ordered his soldiers to massacre the children of the Southern Dynasty family. Xie Yuanxiao, who was the crown of the family in the world, had four surnames except Lanling Xiao Except for the foundation of the clan, the remaining three families have been seriously injured, and nine out of ten died under the butcher's knife, and their glory has ceased.

It can be said that today's famous families in the world have long been dominated by the northern clan, and none of the seven clans and five surnames that are famous in the world is listed in the southern clan. With the Beizu as a foil, Li Ke's words hit the most painful place in Xiao Yu's heart.

Xiao Yu doesn't fight for power, position or fame, but what he fights for is one breath. Xiao Yu has to admit that he was moved by Li Ke's persuasion.

Xiao Yu didn't have much contact with Li Ke, but he was very familiar with Cen Wenwen.

Xiao Yu was previously the order of Zhongshu, Cen Wenwen was the scholar of Zhongshu, and Cen Wenwen was a good minister and a virtuous minister. Xiao Yu can trust his vision and talent.

So, early the next morning, when Xiao Yu's memorial entered the palace, it was like a pebble on the surface of a calm lake, causing ripples throughout the officialdom of the Tang Dynasty.

In the afternoon, Tai Chi Palace, Ganlu Hall, study room.

Li Shimin was asking about politics in the study, and it was Cen Wenwen, a member of Zhongshushe who was on duty, who was answering the politics in the study.

"Last year, the Ministry of Punishment was ordered by me to allow death row prisoners from all over the country to visit their homes and go to Beijing for execution after a year. Now that the one year period has come, have they ever arrived in Beijing as scheduled?" Li Shimin held the memorial in his hand and suddenly remembered After hearing this matter, he asked Cen Wenwen before the case.

Cen Wenwen has always done things in a steady manner. Knowing that today is his turn to answer the government, he has already asked clearly.

Cen Wenwen replied: "Last year, a total of 390 people were released to visit relatives in the name of His Majesty, and there was no one to supervise them. This year, 390 people returned to Beijing, and none of them left without authorization."

After listening to Cen Wenwen's words, Li Shimin showed a smile on his face. Those who were released to visit relatives in their hometowns were all death row prisoners who had committed crimes. , is far better than before.

Li Shimin said: "Decree to the Ministry of Punishment that these death row prisoners who have returned to their hometowns and returned to Beijing all have a heart of repentance, which is also a good deed. They can order the Ministry of Punishment to re-sentence the sentence for a lesser crime."

"No." Cen Wen replied, and bowed his hands to accept the order.

Li Shimin asked: "Are there any new memorials from the provinces, ministries, monasteries, and prisons at noon today?"

Cen Wenwen thought for a while and replied: "At noon today, there are 37 new memorials in all ministries and institutes in Central Beijing."

Li Shimin then asked: "Is there anything urgent?"

Cen Wenwen replied truthfully: "Young Fu Xiao Yu's memorabilia has been specially added with red approval, it must be an urgent matter."

Li Shimin said with a smile, "Oh? Before that, Shiwen (Xiao Yu's name) was dismissed by me because of the impeachment of the pharmacist, so he complained to me. Few memorials have been handed in. Why did he return it today? I got the red book, and quickly bring Shiwen's memorials."

"No." Cen Wenwen replied, took out the memorial book tied with red silk from the top of the pile of memorial books, and handed it to Li Shimin's hand.

Li Shimin took over Xiao Yu's melody from Cen Wen, but glanced at it briefly, his face was solemn at first, and then he showed a smile all over his face.

"Your Majesty's sage, minister Xiao Yu respectfully played: The minister sees that the three generations have the world so they can last for a long time, and they are like the feudal princes. They think that they are feudal screens. The Qin set up the order, and the second generation will die. The Han Dynasty is divided into princes and brothers, and enjoys the country for 400 years. Wei, Wei, Jin abolished it, and its demise will never stop. This feudalism has a clear effect. Today, the Tang Dynasty has not been established for a long time. Although the world is safe, it is safe and secure. It should follow the precedent of the king of Chu yesterday, and enshrine the kings in the world. , divide and rule"

There are two people who advocate the enfeoffment system the most among the monarchs and ministers of the Tang Dynasty. One is Xiao Yu, and the other is the emperor Li Shimin. Li Shimin looked at Xiao Yu's memorabilia and said what he said was exactly what was in his heart. How can he not be unhappy? .

And because Li Ke's foreign township of Yangzhou has been approved by the government affairs hall and the court, and the officials have opened its first case, now is the best time to issue an edict to distribute the enfeoffment. At this time, Xiao Yu's memorial to the palace is not the right time Li Shimin made up his mind.

"I see the same thing, I see the same thing, it really is Shiwen who knows me." Li Shimin raised the memorial in his hand and smiled at Cen Wenwen.

Cen Wenwen already knew what Xiao Yu said, but he still pretended to be puzzled, and asked Li Shimin, "I don't know what Xiao Shaofu said, which made His Majesty so happy."

Li Shimin said: "Shiwen wants to take the matter of the king of Chu's outer town of Yangzhou as an opportunity to conclude the matter of enfeoffment. What do you think?"

When Cen Wenwen heard this, he pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I think this matter may be inappropriate."

Li Shimin frowned, and asked, "What does Cen Qing mean?"

Cen Wenwen replied: "The king of Chu is in Yangzhou, and the town in Huainan is already at odds with the court. How can His Majesty use this as an opportunity to implement the system of enfeoffment?"

Li Shimin said: "The king of Chu is also your disciple. Could it be that the king of Chu wants to rule Yangzhou? It's not what you want."

Cen Wenwen immediately replied: "It is His Majesty's special favor for the king of Chu to take control of Yangzhou. He is out of line because he is at odds with the government system, and this is even more so when it comes to enfeoffment. If Your Majesty mentions the matter of enfeoffment at this time, wouldn't it be Coercing the ministers, is it a dilemma between civil and military affairs in the Manchu Dynasty?"

Cen Wenwen's words sounded righteous, and he urged Li Shimin not to think about enfeoffment, but he didn't know that Li Shimin had always been obsessed with the matter of enfeoffment. He was telling Li Shimin in a different way that Li Ke, the king of Chu, set up a town in Yangzhou. The matter of feuding Yangzhou has passed the court discussion, and now is the best time to implement enfeoffment.

Although Cen Wenwen's words meant to guide Li Shimin, this is also the current situation. Li Shimin insisted after hearing the words: "I have made up my mind on this matter. You don't need to say more, just draw up the purpose. I will deal with it in my own area." .”

Zhongshu Sheren, who served as the driver, had the duty of drafting the imperial edict. Li Shimin ordered that Cen Wenwen definitely had no reason to resist the edict.

"The minister obeys the order."

According to Li Shimin's words, Cen Wenwen seemed to have a look of embarrassment on his face, but after a while, he raised his pen and drafted the imperial edict according to Li Shimin's words.

Although Cen Wenwen drafted the imperial decree in Li Shimin's name, Cen Wenwen is very clear that Li Shimin's imperial decree will not be sent to the court smoothly, not to mention the Minister of the Ministry, even the door of the province.
