Chapter 1302 The feudal king’s red line

Chapter 1302 The Red Line of the Vatic King

The two looked at each other and saw the solemnity in each other's eyes.

Things are going on.

Su Zhenting and Zhao Xuanji had a deep brow and felt extremely difficult.

It was Zhao Xuanji, and he spoke first: "The laws of the Qin Dynasty, all the people's livelihood and military and political power in the fiefs, but there are several red lines here that cannot be touched."

"The strictest of these is that the vassal kings are absolutely forbidden to build military equipment privately. Any army and soldiers in their fiefdom must be reported to the court and the Ministry of War will conduct accounting. After confirming the types and quantities of equipment need to be replenished, they will be handed over to the emperor to discuss with the court. Finally, the emperor nodded, and then the court can produce and transport it uniformly."

"This rule was made by Emperor Taizu himself, and for more than 360 years, no vassal king in this dynasty could have a good end after breaking this red line."

Li Chen's face was as deep as water and said, "The Emperor of the Cong is knowledgeable, so I asked the Emperor of the Cong to tell you. For more than 300 years, have there been any vassal kings touched this line?"

"have."

Zhao Xuanji nodded and replied: "Emperor Gaozu's brother, Zhao Yang, the king of Huaiyang, was reported to have made 160 sets of standardized weapons. Even if Emperor Gaozu couldn't bear it, he had to cry and issue an order. Zhao Yang was asked to beheaded. All the officials of the royal palace were punished strictly. That time, 659 people were killed and sent to the frontier, and more than a thousand were exiled."

"From then on, the title of King Huaiyang will not be opened forever."

"In the seventh year of Emperor Xuanzong, the first rebellion of the vassal kings since the founding of the dynasty was caused by the time King Wu was discovered to have three red cannons. Under the court's accountability, King Wu directly rebelled. Although he was suppressed by the imperial army within just three months, it still caused considerable turmoil."

"In addition to these two times, the most recent one was when the former Emperor Tianyuan was reigned, and the King of Nan'an, who had set up a private armory, was also in charge of the execution."

"Looking at the more than 300 years of this dynasty, it was just that these three times the vassal kings crossed the red line. Because the court decided not to tolerate or tolerate, the vassal kings were also very cautious, regardless of whether they did it privately or not, at least on the surface, they were clean."

Zhao Xuanji's tone became more and more serious, and he said, "But this time, so many weapons and equipment in King Ning's warehouse were directly exposed to the eyes of the people of the world, and he could not even hide it, but he was afraid that he would cause chaos."

"Even if Your Highness wants to ignore it, everyone in the world can see it clearly. Therefore, Your Highness and the court must not express it without any action. Once there is a statement, it will be a … force to rebel against King Ning."

When he said the last two words, Zhao Xuanji's eyes were deep. He looked at Li Chen with a very strange look and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, if this matter is not handled properly, the country may be difficult to subvert."

This sentence is like nonsense, and Li Chen has more or less a slim meaning of gloating.

Li Chen didn't say anything. He looked at Su Zhenting and asked, "General Su, what do you think?"

Su Zhenting had a serious expression and said, "What the provincial order said is very true. The biggest problem at the moment is not how many weapons and how many red cannons King Ning has hidden. One of these things is dead, one hundred or two hundred thousand, all of them are dead. If there are too many lice, they are not afraid of itchy, and their nature is the same."
