The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Chapter 566
In the blink of an eye, the end of the new year is approaching, these few days, Li Ling is in a very good mood, mainly because his wife's illness is getting better day by day under the treatment of a genius doctor. Many imitated.

Especially the Jiangdong Murong family, the vassal king with the strongest military force in the 36 counties of Jiangdong, also dedicated his army to the imperial court.

On this day, after Li Ling got off the morning court, he straddled his horse and ran to the palace.

Jing Shu regained her energy and was unwilling to stay in the palace all day. Taking advantage of the full sun today, she was sitting outside the palace to enjoy the snow accompanied by several palace people.

Qionglouyuyu, wintersweet blooming, Li Ling has never felt that the scenery in the palace is so pleasant, he walked lightly to his wife, and stretched his arms to wrap his wife's shoulders.

Xu Shi hadn't come out for a long time, Jing Shu was watching intently, and she didn't realize until Li Ling walked up to her, Jing Shu turned her head, pointed to the two wild geese under the plum tree, and asked her husband, "They said, are these two Geese, were you the one who saved it?"

A big man like Li Ling can pay attention to two insignificant birds in the midst of all the daily affairs, which really surprised Jing Shu.

Li Ling looked at the two wild geese leisurely under the plum tree, and replied with a smile: "The female goose was injured and frozen on the ice, and the male goose has been guarding it all the time. I think they are pitiful." , and was rescued."

As he spoke, he took his wife's hand and walked forward. The two geese were already familiar with Li Ling. When they saw him coming, they flapped their wings and walked towards him, screaming "quack".

Jing Shu reached out and touched the goose's head, and said with a smile: "It seems that they like this place very much, are they going to stay here?"

Li Ling shook his head and said: "The injury on the female goose's leg has not healed yet, and they will fly away after it heals. No matter how good this place is, it is not a destination for them after all. They still have to fly there to a place of their own."

Jing Shu nodded, then mentioned political affairs, and asked Li Ling, "I heard that since Prince Yong's residence took the lead in withdrawing the feudal clan, many feudal lords have followed suit, right?"

Li Ling said: "There are indeed quite a few people who are aware of current affairs, but there are still half of them who have not made any movement."

Jing Shu looked at her husband and said, "Perhaps, they are still a little bit unwilling."

Li Ling nodded and said: "Even those who have already withdrawn from the vassal state cannot be reconciled, but they have seen the clues and are forced by the situation."

Jing Shu asked: "What do you plan to do with those vassal kings who haven't played?"

Li Ling replied: "I have already ordered the cabinet to draw up a decree, and it will be released tomorrow. I want them to dismantle the guard army and increase the tribute like other princes. I have added two orders. One is to order them to hand over their jurisdiction. The power of the region, and send their descendants to study in the palace."

According to the regulations of the previous dynasty, the vassal kings of all places have the power to govern their fiefdoms. Now these vassal kings who have not taken the initiative to report will not only abolish their guards this time, but also lose their power to govern their fiefdoms, and they will also send out protons. For those princes who took the initiative to play, they were much more passive.

Jing Shu sighed slightly when she heard the words, and replied: "Since these vassal kings didn't take the initiative to play, it can be seen that they are extremely unwilling. If they are asked to hand over the power to govern the vassal land and give protons, I am afraid they will not be reconciled." gone."

Li Ling nodded and said, "This is natural."

"As long as anyone who resists the decree and does not obey it, I will send troops to crusade in the next year, and all of them will be eradicated."

The power of the vassal kings is all on one side, once the swords and soldiers meet, it will be a river of blood.

A soft-hearted emperor cannot become a British lord. This is indeed cruel to those vassal kings, but it is beneficial to the rule of the world.

Since ancient times, the world has been disintegrated and chaotic, most of which are caused by the inability to concentrate power and the expansion of local forces.

The withdrawal of the feudal clan was already under the control of Li Ling's calculations. When he said this, his face was calm, as if he was talking about a trivial matter.

A generation of heros, all have a city in their chests, kill decisively, and stabilize the world.

Now that the imperial decree has been issued, it is not a secret. Li Xiang is on duty in the inner court, so the news is naturally the most well-informed. After he returned home, he informed Pingyang of the news, and Pingyang couldn't help being surprised.

Unexpectedly, the emperor would attack the feudal prince so quickly.

Fortunately, her mother's family took the lead in announcing the withdrawal of the feudal clan, but when I think about it, I still can't help but make people feel scared.

Pingyang couldn't sit still any longer, and he didn't care that it was getting dark, so he ordered someone to prepare a car to find his brother and sister-in-law.

Because the imperial decree has not been issued yet, Zhao Xuan and Xie have not known it yet, and they are having dinner in the house. Zhao Xuan heard Pingyang mention that Li Xiang had heard the wind, and his chopsticks shook to the ground, saying repeatedly: : "It seems that Your Majesty really has the intention of withdrawing from the feudal clan a long time ago. Fortunately, we noticed it early." He said, looking at his wife, he didn't know how to thank this wise and virtuous wife for a moment, and he just kept repeating the same sentence. Said: "Fortunately, fortunately, fortunately."

Mrs. Xie bent down to pick up the chopsticks dropped by her husband, wiped them clean with the napkin, and stuffed them back into her husband's hands, comforting him: "We took the lead to show our sincerity, the saints will only think of our good, as for how to deal with others Family, don't do our business anymore."

Hearing his wife's words, Zhao Xuan felt more at ease, but he couldn't eat anymore. He simply put down the jade chopsticks and asked Pingyang, "Did my sister-in-law find out that your majesty treats us who are sincere? King, but do you still want to take back the power to govern the vassal land? From now on, you don’t have to send children as pledges like other vassal kings, do you?”

Pingyang's heart was also up and down, she heard the words and replied: "How can this husband know, it is His Majesty's decision to withdraw the feudal domain, and Husband has been with His Majesty every day, and he has never noticed it. He only heard about the news after the imperial decree was issued."

Zhao Xuan frowned slightly after hearing what his sister said, and couldn't help complaining: "You said that my sister-in-law is so scheming, he follows the emperor every day, and he doesn't even notice such a big thing. Oops! Let me say something about him."

Pingyang saw his elder brother scolding her husband, and replied in a deep voice: "You still have the face to criticize him, you have been in Beijing for so long, and you have been to the Holy Spirit several times, isn't it because you didn't smell the reason at all, hum! It's not as good as sister-in-law. As for the women in the deep house, if it weren't for the fame and wisdom of my sister-in-law, how could we not only escape this disaster so easily, but also make contributions and get extra rewards."

Zhao Xuan hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, thanks to your sister-in-law."

As he said that, he looked at his wife who was still eating slowly. Zhao Xuan rushed forward and gave his wife a deep bow: "Madam has worked hard, I am grateful here."
