My life is like walking on thin ice

Chapter 10: Your Majesty, please think three times!

Chapter 10: Your Majesty, please think twice!
Led Liu Wu to Weiyang Palace and presented him to his father;

After witnessing the brothers weeping and grieving for the late Emperor Taizong Xiaowen for a moment, Liu Rong returned his father's Emperor's Day and returned to the Phoenix Palace.

As for what the old brothers will talk about next?
"If you think about it, it's not like today that Uncle Liang Liang had just arrived in Chang'an and brought up the matter of reducing the vassal status."

"The two just exchanged greetings and let Uncle Wang go to pay homage to the late emperor."

"In the evening, maybe the two brothers will go to Changle together?"

After walking into his palace and telling the palace attendants that he wanted to rest, Liu Rong lay on the couch and began to think alone.

If the past ten years were Liu Rong's preparation and adaptation period after coming to this era, then after the death of the late emperor, Liu Rong officially entered the stage of survival.

Perhaps it’s a strange thing to say;
——The dignified eldest son still needs to consider survival?

In fact, there is no exaggeration in Liu Rong's thinking.

First of all, as the eldest son of the emperor, Liu Rong is naturally half the heir to the throne;

Especially under the premise that today's emperor Qi has no legitimate son, and it is basically impossible to have a legitimate son, Liu Rong is almost the only legitimate crown prince.

what does this mean?
This means that if Liu Rong fails in his life, he will become a benevolent person...

"If you can't sit on the throne of the prince and hold on until the day when the old man dies..."

"Ah;"

"My tenth brother is not a person who treats his elder brother well..."

With a wry smile and a sigh, Liu Rong turned over slightly and changed into a more comfortable position.

Liu Rong is the most legitimate crown prince;

This means that once Liu Rong fails to inherit the throne from Emperor Qi, Liu Rong's younger brother who inherits the throne will definitely regard Liu Rong as a thorn in his side and a thorn in his flesh.

Even without the younger brother taking action, father Liu Qi would probably take action to eliminate the hidden dangers for Liu Rong's replacement.

In the original history, Emperor Qi did exactly this...

"Tenth brother~"

"Tenth brother..."

"In this life, just be a 'big brother of Hanwu'..."

"Brother doesn't want to either."

"If I really don't do this, brother, I will have no way to survive..."

When King Liang entered the court, the Chang'an court did not react much.

Except at the beginning, when someone occasionally shouted, "The time is wrong, King Liang came too early," no one paid attention to this clan prince who came to the court to mourn.

After the death of the late emperor, the Chang'an court actually fell into a long period of busyness.

Even if the emperor has been the crown prince for more than 20 years and the prince has overseen the country for many years, and has already matured, he still cannot avoid the turmoil that will inevitably occur when the feudal dynasty transfers power.

Although there are no major turmoils, small turmoils are inevitable.

Needless to say, just as soon as Emperor Qi ascended the throne, he threw his arms around and planted party members in the court, which aroused the dissatisfaction of a considerable number of courtiers.

——Later generations often say that the Han Dynasty inherited the Qin system.

What the Han family now adopts is the three-gong-nine-qing system inherited from the Qin Dynasty with slight changes.

Sangong said: Prime Minister, Taiwei, Yushi Dafu.

Jiu Qing said: Internal history, Zongzheng, Fengchang, Tingwei, Lieutenant, Weiwei, Taipu, Dianke, Langzhongling.

Nowadays, the Han family's Taiwei does not have a permanent position and is only temporarily appointed during wartime. Therefore, the three princes are actually the two princes: the prime minister and the imperial censor who is known as the "sub-prime minister".

After taking the throne, Emperor Qi had no intention of moving on these two positions.

But Jiu Qing was teased by Emperor Qi for a while. ——Therefore, the prince’s family order: Chao Cuo is the internal history;

——So the prince gave up his family: Zhang Ou was the court captain;

——So the prince gave up his family: Zhou Ren was the doctor’s order;
——Therefore, the prince gave up his family: Guo Xin is a loyal person;

——So the crown prince’s shield guard: Sun Jia is the lieutenant;
——The son of King Chu Yuan: Pinglu Hou Liu Li is Zongzheng...

In addition to the three positions of Weiwei, Imperial Servant, and Dianke, the other six positions were all quickly assigned by the Emperor to his own Prince's team!

Such a large-scale personnel transfer, especially a transfer at the Jiuqing level, is no less than an earthquake for the court.

Not to mention whether the six deposed people and their partisans still had any grievances;

Just for these six new Jiuqings who were promoted quickly, it would be difficult for the Chang'an court to avoid causing trouble while they were adapting to their jobs after taking office.

That is to say, the emperor Qi was full-fledged before he ascended the throne, and the prince had overseen the country for many years. Although he did not have the title of emperor, he had already had the actual status of emperor.

In addition, most of the six people who were promoted to the rank of Jiuqing had real materials, so the court did not cause a big mess, but only fell into a short period of chaos.

Among them, there is one person who is very important.

——The founding father of the country, the prime minister left by the late emperor to the current emperor: Shen Tujia, the Marquis of Gu'an.

Under the iron-fisted rule of the old prime minister, the chaos in the Chang'an court quickly subsided, and it quickly got back on track and started operating in an orderly manner.

But here, Shen Tujia had just restored the order of the court to normal, and the internal history Chao Cuo appeared on the court ceremony again with a piece of paper "Cutting Down the Domain".

For the first time, Shen Tujia didn’t take it too seriously;
Anyway, it’s not the first time~
When Chao Cuo went to "Cutting the Vassal Policy", he was always put off by the late emperor...

The late emperor!

Realizing that the late emperor was no longer sitting in the main hall of the Proclamation Chamber, Shen Tujia's heart rang with alarm bells!
"His Majesty!"

"As early as the time of the late emperor, the imperial court had already made a final decision in the Policy of Cutting Down the Domain!"

"——Such a radical strategy will definitely cause changes in Guandong. This is a conclusion that the late emperor also agreed with!"

"Now that the late Emperor has made great achievements, His Majesty has just ascended the throne, and the court has just settled down."

"Even if you want to reduce the vassal status, Your Majesty should take a long-term approach and not act too hastily!!!"

After saying this, Shen Tujia turned around and looked at Chao Cuo behind him fiercely, wishing he could chop Chao Cuo to the ground on the spot!
Just as he was about to spit out the fragrance, he heard Emperor Qi's low voice coming from the imperial couch behind him. Shen Tujia finally slowly closed his eyes and shook his head sadly...

"The late emperor once said: The policy of reducing vassal status can be used, but the time has not yet come."

"——These words were said by the late emperor fourteen years ago."

"If the Prime Minister thinks that 'the time has not yet come' yet, then I really don't understand how long it will take for this time to come."

After saying this, Emperor Qi cast his gaze on the ministers in the palace.

"I'm not asking the princes whether the "Strategy for Reducing the Vassals" can be used, but I want you to discuss which prince should start implementing the "Policy for Reducing the Vassals".

"——I think King Wu is good."

"What do you think?"

The words have been spoken so clearly, courtiers, you look at me and I look at you;

Finally, his eyes fell on the respected old prime minister: Shen Tujia.

In the center of the hall, the old Prime Minister Shen Tujia was breathing heavily. He was trying his best to suppress it, and his breathing rate became more and more rapid due to anger.

Finally, with his face flushed, he turned around and bowed deeply to the emperor on the imperial couch.

"Prime Minister Shen Tujia, I will worship you to death!"

"Your Majesty, please think twice!!!"
