Rebirth of Wu Ba Spring and Autumn

Chapter 994

"Your Majesty, Lord Wu An, Lord Wu Xin, and Lord Wu Yang brought their sons to seek an audience."

"Let them come over."

"promise!"

Sun Wu, Wu Zixu, Tian Rangju brought their sons to see him?
This is a relatively rare thing.

There are currently three generals in the state of Wu, namely the Sun family, the Wu family, and the Tian family.

The Tian family is relatively inferior, and the only one who can make a move is Tian Rangju. The latter's four sons are average generals, but they have also made some military exploits for Wu Guoli.

Sun Wu's three sons, Sun Chi, Sun Ming, and Sun Di, as well as Wu Zixu's two sons, Wu Ming and Wu Liang, are rare generals who have inherited the excellent genes of their parents, acquired unique skills from their families, and are capable of leading the army. Very unusual.

Today, these younger generations hold important positions in the army.

Some are in the imperial army, and some are in the frontier army.

The Sun and Wu families in Wu State are similar to the Wang and Meng families in the Qin Dynasty.

"Your Majesty will see you! Your Majesty the First Emperor, Wannian!"

After seeing Qingji in the imperial garden, all the ministers paid respects in unison.

Qingji waved his hands and said, "Second and third sons don't need to be too polite, and you can live without courtesy."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After they stood up, Qingji asked with a pleasant face, "The second and third sons are meeting with me together, what's the matter?"

Wu Zixu stepped forward, bowed to Qingji and said, "Your Majesty, I have come to ask Your Majesty for orders."

"Please? What's the matter?"

"In recent days, there has been a lot of discussion in the government and the opposition, saying that His Majesty wants to restore the enfeoffment system, so that the princes and meritorious officials can feud the state and build a country. However, I think that my Great Wu will rule the world and it is hard to come by. How can I repeat the mistakes of the Zhou family?"

Wu Zixu said with a heartbroken voice: "Therefore, I have learned from this painful experience and decided to appeal to His Majesty together."

"My great Wu has since abolished the enfeoffment system, and the county system has been implemented throughout the country."

"Maybe the princes can be made to establish a state and a state, and the prefectures and states can be ruled in parallel, and blood relatives can be used as a barrier to maintain the unity of the Wu family and make your majesty rule!"

Wu Zixu's speech was very measured, and he didn't block the "road".

It is not impossible to feud a state and build a country.

However, only those who are blood relatives of the Wu family, the princes of Qingji, are eligible to be entrusted and sealed off.

What Qingji wanted was their attitude.

After waiting for a long time, Wu Zixu, Sun Wu and others were finally enlightened!

This made Qingji very satisfied.

For example, Wu Zixu, Sun Wu, and Tian Rangju, as meritorious veterans of the Wu State, have made countless contributions to the unification of the Wu State for more than [-] years.

Even such meritorious officials have taken the initiative to express their support for Qingji's abolition of the enfeoffment system, or the establishment of a state without meritorious officials. Do the rest dare to object?

The ones who made the most contributions expressed no objection, how dare they?

……

The next day, Qingji summoned a group of ministers in the Fengtian Hall in Jinling, and all officials with a rank of more than six hundred shi in the court must be present to attend.

"I mean, in my country of Great Wu, the enfeoffment system will be abolished and the prefecture and county system will be implemented. This is the ancestral system and will be passed down from generation to generation!"

"Of course."

Sitting on the Majesty's platform, Qing Ji paused for a moment, and said again: "My sons, the princes of the Great Wu, can establish states and establish states overseas and in places outside the region, and regard them as the barrier of the Great Wu Jiangshan."

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

Seeing Qingji make such a decision, all the ministers agreed with him.

This is a kind of compromise.

Qingji asked his sons to feudalize the state and establish a state, but it was in an overseas place, a place outside the territory, not in the mainland of Wu.

In fact, Qingji has been planning this matter for many years, but he has never mentioned it to anyone.

"map."

Qingji beckoned, and two golden-armored warriors with big arms and round waists pulled a huge map and placed it in front of the king and ministers of the state of Wu.

Qingji walked down the majesty's platform slowly, and made all the officials come closer.

"This is Liaodong, at the time of Emperor Shun, it was part of Youzhou, one of the twelve states."

"Wu Zhang."

"My son is here!"

"I will give you 1 horses, and you will bring their families, prepare enough rations, farm tools, cloth, etc., and go to Liaodong. Be sure to occupy their land and have their people, so as to promote the culture of our Great Wu and educate the people."

Qing Ji said earnestly: "From now on, I canonize you as the 'King of Liao' and establish the Liao Kingdom."

"My son takes orders!"

Wu Zhang solemnly agreed.

Wu Zhang was a little uncomfortable with becoming a vassal king all of a sudden, and still being a vassal king who was sealed off by various lands.

Qingji is not writing a "blank check" to Wu Zhang.

1 horses and their families, at least [-] to [-] people, plus the Sushen, Shuyao, and Donghu entrenched in the land of Liaodong, maybe the population of Liao will be more than [-] or hundreds of thousands.

This is not a tiny country.

It is worth mentioning that in the era of Emperor Shun, there was a saying of "Twelve States" in China.

Twelve prefectures, that is, nine prefectures in the Han area, were separated from Jizhou, You, Bing, and Ying prefectures, plus the original nine prefectures, to form a total of twelve prefectures, namely Jizhou, Yanzhou, Qingzhou, Xuzhou, Yangzhou, and Jingzhou , Yuzhou, Liangzhou, Yongzhou, Youzhou, Bingzhou, and Yingzhou.

According to legend, Shun divided the country into twelve prefectures, and each prefecture granted a mountain as the township of a prefecture, that is, a place to worship ancestors. Yiwulu Mountain was named the township of Youzhou in the north.

During the Zhou Dynasty, Wulu Mountain was named one of the Five Mountains and Five Towns.

The "Liaodong" assigned by Qingji to Wuzhang is the area around Yiwulu Mountain, which is modern Liaoning.

Wu Zhang's task is still very arduous, after all, he has to build a Liao Kingdom from scratch.

As for whether Wu Zhang and his descendants can bring down Heilongjiang and Jilin together in the future, conquer the Rongdi there, and expand their territories, it depends on their own ability.

The Liao Kingdom, in Qingji's plan, wanted to dominate between the white mountains and the black waters.

"Wu Hong."

"My son is here!"

"You led 1 horses and their families to the Marquis of Ji. From now on, you will be King Ning and establish Ning Kingdom there."

"This……"

Wu Hong felt hesitant.

As the eldest son of Qingji, Wu Hong, who is highly respected in the Wu government and the public, and filial to his parents, does not want to leave his parents.

Furthermore, Wu Hong had doubts in his heart.

"Father, the Marquis of the Ji clan is a country established overseas by Jizi, a survivor of the Shang Dynasty. He often sends envoys to pay homage to the father. Now that my great Wu wants to destroy his country, isn't it... not very kind?"

"kind?"

Qing Ji said earnestly: "Weakness is the original sin. Whatever the sun and moon shine on, and wherever the rivers and rivers go, are all Wu soil!"

"Wu Hong, understand?"

"My son, obey the king's order!"

Only then did Wu Hong reluctantly agree.

Jishihou State is the Jizi Joseon in history.

The modern Bangzi Kingdom considers itself a descendant of Goguryeo, but does not want to recognize Jizi, whom Goguryeo worshiped.

Jizi, the uncle of King Zhou of the Shang Dynasty, was once respected as the authentic ancestor of "Jisheng" in the history of Goguryeo.

He brought with him intellectuals who understood poetry and books, rites and music, medicine, yin and yang, and witchcraft, and skilled craftsmen who understood various skills.

They brought the civilization of the Central Plains to the northern part of the Korean Peninsula, educated the subjects, made ancient Korea practice the Chinese ritual and music system, and gradually followed the customs of the Central Plains in the official system of the government office and food and living.

Politically, Jizi promulgated eight statutes prohibiting killing, wounding, and stealing; economically, he promoted the land mu system of the Shang Dynasty and the advanced farming and breeding techniques of the Central Plains...

In that country, Jizi really lived up to the name of a saint.

"Wu Fan."

"My son is here!"

"You led 1 horses and their families to the western snowfields to fight against the Qiang people. From now on, you are the king of Sai, and you will establish the country of Sai in the Qiang land."

"Father...my son wants the Western Regions."

Wu Fan raised an objection.

He has served as the Chief Protector of the Protectorate of the Western Regions for many years, and his influence is very powerful.

It is certainly a gratifying thing to be the king of a country.

But what is Qiangdi?
In a high mountain and snowy field, a place where birds don't shit, he still has to lead his army to fight with the Qiang people in harsh places, fighting for territory...

No matter how you look at it, Wu Fan feels a lot of pressure!
"The land of the Western Regions cannot be given to you."

Qing Ji rebuffed flatly, "If you don't want to establish a state, I won't make things difficult for you."

"Father, if you don't want your ministers to go to the Qiang land to establish a country, your ministers have a request."

"Say."

"The servants want 3 horses and their families."
