Chapter 649: Zhu Youlang's troubles

Li Dingguo had a good attitude towards Zhu Fuhuan, but he was far from being respectful.

Although this guy is considered a descendant of the Qin vassal state, it is not certain whether he can inherit the title of King Qin.

Li Dingguo's background was already sensitive, and if he could discover the Zhu Ming royal family at this time, it would be considered a great contribution.

When today's Zi's position is very stable, there is no need to worry about other royal vassal kings threatening his throne.

What's more, he was a descendant of the Qin vassal family.

Since ancient times, the inheritance of the throne has been directly related to bloodlines.

This was even more true in the Ming Dynasty. As long as you don’t rely on force to fight, bloodline is the first element that determines the ownership of the throne.

Although King Zhu Chuang of Qin was the second son of Emperor Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang, the bloodline of more than ten generations passed is 108,000 miles away from the current son.

Emperor Yongli is the grandson of Emperor Wanli, and he is absolutely well-off.

If there is a person with a generation of names now, perhaps Emperor Yongli will be afraid.

A descendant of the Qin King? Just live a life of silence and be a free prince.

Li Dingguo wrote the memorial as soon as possible and ordered people to send it to Nanjing on a night and night.

I believe that His Majesty the Emperor will be very happy to learn that the King of Qin has descendants.

As for Li Guoying... let him jump around for two days.

Although Tongguan is a powerful pass in the world, it is targeted from outside to inside.

It is not as difficult as I imagined to fight from inside to outside.

Li Dingguo now only wants the army to rest. When he recovers his strength, he will be the time when the entire army attacks and attacks Tongguan to kill Li Guoying.

Li Guoying is disgusting Li Dingguo for not once or twice. That's good. Li Dingguo wants to calculate the new and old hatreds with him.

...

...

Xi'an is back!

When the news reached Nanjing, Zhu Youlang was so excited that he almost fainted.

Those who win Guanzhong will win the world. This old saying has been said since ancient times.

Although the role of Guanzhong is far less than that of the Han and Tang dynasties, it is to some extent a symbol.

The victory of Guanzhong was too obvious to boost the morale of the Ming army.

What Li Dingguo has to do now is to push the whole way and join the Kuidong Army that attacked Henan.

By then, whether it was attacking Shanxi or heading straight to the capital, the Ming army would take the absolute initiative.

The powerful Ming army had completely controlled the direction of the battle, and everything was following the script direction designed by Zhu Youlang.

This feeling is so cool.

Of course, there is another thing that makes Zhu Youlang very excited, that is, Li Dingguo discovered a descendant of Qin's vassal.

According to Li Dingguo, the descendant of the Qin vassal state was named Zhu Fuhuan, and he was the legitimate son of the last Qin king.

A jade pendant was presented with the memorial, which was regarded as Zhu Fuhuan's token.

Zhu Youlang looked at the jade pendant carefully and found that it was indeed unique to the Qin vassal.

Because the memories left by Yongli remained in his mind, he compared the jade pendant with the Guifan jade pendant and found that the ** was inseparable.

This is indeed something that only the royal family has.

Unexpectedly, the King of Qin had a descendant. Zhu Youlang originally thought that the King of Qin had been killed by Li Zicheng and the Qing Dynasty!

This is a great joy.

These descendants of the vassal kings must have lived incognito to avoid disasters.

Once the Ming Dynasty king army advanced northward and had the posture of conquering the world, the descendants of these vassal kings would rise again, wanting to seek a title and inherit the throne of their ancestors.

After Zhu Youlang figured it out, his joy gradually faded a lot, and his worries couldn't help but emerge.

The reason why the Ming court was so passive in the late Chongzhen period was that in addition to natural disasters, the Ming royal family also had an unshirkable responsibility.

The Ming Dynasty's feudal system had a very obvious disadvantage, that is, the feudal kings could not take power and could not take their own fiefdom.

It is obvious that this is to prevent the vassal kings from competing for the throne, limiting their considerable rights.

Of course, this is good for consolidating the imperial power, but if you think about it carefully, you can't do it, and you can't do it either. Isn't this equivalent to raising the vassal kings as piglets?

There are more than a dozen, and dozens are okay.

But the princes had nothing to do every day, and there seemed to be nothing to do except have more children.

There are more and more princes, more and more princes, and even various auxiliary generals, and tens of thousands of generals in the capital.

Such a huge royal family is like a group of parasites, constantly asking for it from the Ming Dynasty, but without any contribution.

A lot of silver and food in the treasury were separated by the royal family, and the court's ability to deal with various disasters would naturally decline.

In the event of famine years and foreign invasions, the fault tolerance rate will be minimized.

If this continues, there will be a change of dynasty.

That is, Zhu Youlang's arrival changed this point, otherwise, according to the original historical trajectory, the Ming Dynasty had already destroyed its country.

As a time traveler, he naturally could not watch the Ming Dynasty fall into the quagmire again.

Then the system of feudal kings in the Ming Dynasty must be changed.

Just how to change it?

For a moment, Zhu Youlang was in a little trouble.

The root problem is actually very obvious, that is, the vassal kings in the Ming Dynasty did not surrender.

The legitimate son of the vassal king is still the prince, and the concubine's son is granted the title of prince.

The legitimate son of the county prince is still the prince, and the concubine's son has lost his title.

But with the reproduction speed of the vassal kings in the Ming Dynasty, the expansion speed of the prince alone was very amazing, let alone the prince.

So if Zhu Youlang must use a knife, he must work hard on the submission.

Perhaps it can be implemented similar to the Han Dynasty's order to promote grace, but it can be more meticulous and strict, and it can also give the vassal kings some opportunities to join the dynasty and become officials.

As long as you pass the assessment, you can get an official position.

In this way, the branches of the vassal kings will not be focused on having more children and receiving money.

Of course, this policy is to treat the symptoms but not the root cause.

Because the royal family of all dynasties occupied absolute interests and was above other classes.

This point cannot be changed, and Zhu Youlang is unable to change it either.

If he insists on changing, the foundation of Zhu Ming's rule will be shaken. At that time, it will not be as simple as the court officials oppose it, and the entire Zhu Ming royal family will oppose him!

Although Zhu Youlang's thoughts were ahead of this era, it was impossible to do it completely without any scruples.

Sometimes people have to learn to compromise, even the emperor.

Zhu Youlang could only transform the Ming Dynasty better within the scope of the rules, but it was impossible to overturn the chessboard directly and start over.

That's what the thief has to do, not the emperor.

Moreover, the rebels became emperors and established a new dynasty, and found that the dragon slayer eventually became evil dragons. Everything was just a new one.

The ambitions of those days had long disappeared, and the only thing left was to eat and die for pleasure.

It is difficult to conquer the world, and it is even more difficult to defend the world.

What Zhu Youlang needs to consider now is to restore the world, and then how to reform and how to make the Ming Dynasty develop more vigorously.

If you don’t know the food, rice, oil and salt, Zhu Youlang now feels that the pressure on his shoulders is extremely great.

Now we can only take one step at a time and keep adjusting with changes.
