Chapter 972

No matter which Prince is, Liu Yan will not let them stay in the palace city until they have a reward. Not even every prince can be a king, but the bottom line is to be a marquis.

A person who always lives in a "circle" is facing such a fixed crowd. For example, he is like a frog living in a well and sees a small piece of sky. If such a person can do his part, once he has the idea he shouldn't have, it will be a disaster for himself and his close friends.

Liu Yan does not want to raise an heir who will ask "why not eat minced meat". It will be a complete tragedy. It will not only make the old Liu family an animal killed arbitrarily, but also plunge the whole country into chaos.

How many powerful dynasties have buried hidden dangers because of a generation of kings, that is, it is impossible for the heirs of previous dynasties to be intelligent, but there must be no heirs who don't know anything.

In fact, a king does not have to be very intelligent, but he must understand the situation of the people. Even if he can't really understand it, he must also understand the basic situation.

Liu Yan had long thought that any prince would be sent away from the palace city when he was old. He could travel to the frontier of the Empire or live in an ordinary family in the hinterland.

That is only the first procedure. When they grow up, the prince will be picked up and let them choose to serve in the army or take a local official post in a certain place.

How many talents a person has is only the starting point, and how many things he has experienced will have how much experience.

There are many people with great talent. They have the best talent and don't experience anything. Everything is blind.

And some ordinary people, although they have no extraordinary talent, because they have enough experience, even if they can't make amazing achievements in a certain field, they will at least become a useful person.

It is very gratifying for a family to have a genius.

For the country, it is naturally gratifying to have a genius who can change the times, but it is also the case if the genius is not enough to change the times.

It is impossible for everyone to be a genius, so at the national level, it is practical to have more useful talents, especially those who are willing to devote themselves to research, attack difficulties in a certain field, or work steadfastly. In fact, the latter two are the most solid foundation of a country.

In that day's era, Liu Yan can fully understand that even if there is a genius, it is probably a pure literary genius. It is difficult to produce a genius that can be related to science and technology.

It is not that Liu Yan despises the people of the current era, but that science is not like literature.

Science is based on the system we have. We study and discover it step by step. It is impossible to say that we are still using gunpowder weapons just now and laser weapons the next moment. Judging with such certainty, all science can not escape the threshold of material.

"I don't understand that." Cui Wan pleaded deeply: "shen'er is only eleven years old after the new year. Does your majesty really want him to leave the palace or go to the grassland?"

"What happened to eleven?" Liu Yan said, "how many eleven year olds have worked for several years."

"It's different." Cui Wan flushed her eyes with tears: "shen'er is your eldest son!"

"Because shen'er is my eldest son, we should be independent early." Liu Yan knew that he could not reason with a mother, especially when it came to the mother's child: "as my eldest son, Shen Er can't stay in the palace city forever. He should understand the vastness of heaven and earth and contact more people."

Cui Wan was stunned. She thought Liu Shen was going to be driven out of the palace city. Worrying about the time was like exile. After listening to Liu Yan's words, she tasted some key points.

"Well..." Cui Wan asked hesitantly, "where is shen'er's first stop?"

"Junji mountain." Liu Yan said slowly, "first stay in the captain's department for at least half a year. I have another arrangement later."

Cui Wan at least knows where Junji mountain is. As far as she knows, Junji mountain has been very critical to the Han Empire in the past few years. It is not too much to say that it is a strategic place.

The Han Empire set up several school captain departments, but all of them were strategic places. The importance of junjishan was reflected in that there were Ding zero people in the West and Rouran people in the East.

Now the Rouran people have been defeated. Li Tan, the general of the northern expedition, and LV Taizheng, the general of the eastern expedition, led their troops to kill them all. However, although the Dingling people in the west of Junji mountain have also suffered some blows, their strength is still there.

Cui Wan knew that Liu Shen could no longer be allowed to leave Chang'an, or she might break Liu Shen's path to the position of Chu Jun. She is still worried.

Liu Shen grew up in a good environment, and his genes were good. At the age of 11, he had the height and physique of an ordinary person at the age of 14 or 15, but he was only 11 anyway.

"Shen'er's going to Junji mountain is..." Cui Wan really couldn't help asking, "is it as the supervisor of the school captain's department?"

"Supervisor?" Liu Yan wondered, when did he set up a supervisor for a certain army? Cui Wan couldn't rest assured if she didn't tell the details. She revealed: "she will first serve as doua... That is, the captain of junjishan. She will be doua's personal soldier first. If she is familiar with the military brigade, she may be transferred to a field army to become an officer or a pawn..."

Liu Yan talked a lot and made it very clear, including that Liu Shen has been selected as the person to reserve the monarch, because Liu Shen should be selected as the person to reserve the monarch, so Liu Shen cannot be unaware of the soldiers.

"Isn't it the same to learn the art of war from you or find a good teacher?" Cui Wan's worry did not disappear, but became more serious: "it's not peaceful there. Shen'er is young and goes to the battlefield..."

"Are you dizzy?" Liu Yan said curiously, "don't let me make everything so clear. Won't I send Ruishi to protect shen'er openly and secretly?"

That's inevitable. Liu Yan can't really release Liu Shen. His purpose of arranging Liu Shen to go out for training is very clear, not to let Liu Shen die.

Cui Wan found that Liu Yan was becoming more and more impatient and even showed signs of anger. She dared not say any more words, and even forced herself to laugh and tear the topic away.

A man has too many women. Instead of relaxing with a woman, he is bored. He must not have the mind to comfort. He will choose another woman who can relax himself.

"After all, the queen is shen'er's biological mother." After listening to Liu Yan's complaint quietly, tuobaxiu smiled and said, "I'm also a mother. I always know that as a mother, I will always worry about my children."

Of course Liu Yan knows, but their family is different from other families.

There is a saying that "you must bear the weight when wearing a crown", which means obligations and responsibilities. Only those who understand obligations and responsibilities will be a qualified superior.

"I read some history books." Tuobaxiu claimed that there was nothing wrong with him: "are you going to follow the example of the pre Qin Dynasty?"

Liu Yan was stunned and didn't react for a while.

"When Qin Xiaogong's eldest son was very young, he drove him away from the office and left the court." When tuobaxiu saw that Liu Yan didn't react for a while, he mentioned a few words and asked curiously, "don't you learn from the pre Qin Dynasty?"

Liu Yan didn't explain to tuobaxiu that Qin Xiaogong didn't actively exile his eldest son to the people. It was the Qin Gong's office and the vested interest aristocratic group that chose yingsi as their spokesman.

If Qin Xiaogong wants to continue the reform and crack down on the public office and the aristocratic group with vested interests in an all-round way, it is the most appropriate way to exile their chosen spokesman Ying Si, which can not only express the determination of the reform, but also warn the public office and the aristocratic group with vested interests to the greatest extent.

"Since Qin Xiaogong, several generations of monarchs in the pre Qin Dynasty... It seems that they are really not children raised around." Liu Yan was not asking questions, but had an answer long ago: "they were either exiled or went to the enemy country to be protons. They had such an experience. They were not flowers growing in the greenhouse. They could know more clearly what they wanted to do. Only then did they have the strength of the sixth generation and did their best in the first emperor generation."

"You are imitating the pre Qin Dynasty." Tuobaxiu asked curiously, "the Pre-Qin Dynasty is for self-protection and for the destruction of the six countries. The enemy countries around the Han Dynasty will perish in your hands. The Han Dynasty wants to go further?"

Liu Yan just smiled and didn't answer.

The pre-Qin dynasties had clear goals. At the beginning, they only tried to protect themselves. After they could protect themselves, they changed the goal to dominate the world.

The ultimate goal of Qin people is to unify the world. It is endless confusion to do something in the future.

It is said that the Qin Empire was destroyed in the hands of Qin II, Hu Hai, Zhao Gao and other evils, but it is not always true.

From another point of view, could it be that the Qin people lost their goal after completing the unification of the world and suffered all kinds of injustice after they had no goal to strive for? It is clear that there are hundreds of thousands of troops in southern Xinjiang and the source of troops in Guanzhong has not dried up, but it is the reason why the joint forces of the Qin Dynasty easily entered Guanzhong and did not resist to the death?

Liu Yan knows that a country must have a goal. It must not be too simple or too difficult. Once it is simple, it will lose the motivation for progress. If it is difficult, it will make people lose hope. It can only be a goal that can be seen but not easy to achieve.

How to cultivate heirs? Liu Yan is divided into several steps and has a lot of ideas.

If Liu Yan's generation completed the conquest of the world island, the second generation of kings must not continue to focus on conquest, but how to consolidate their rule.

To put it simply, the kings of the previous generation need to open up, and the kings of the next generation need to keep it.

"Then you..." tuobaxiu was surprised: "let shen'er go to the army?"

"How can I not know the soldiers." Liu Yan said seriously, "no matter whether I choose shen'er as my prince or not, and no matter which son of mine, they should all know the soldiers."

Tuobaxiu couldn't come back for a long time.

"The territory I rule is very large, and it will be even larger in the future." Liu Yan said seriously, "if you are a king, you will be a king thousands of miles away. I don't know how the soldiers can hold the country, and even continue to develop as a pioneer."

Is the Han Empire big now? It is indeed very big. If it were not limited by the population problem, it would be even bigger.

To say small, the current territory of the Han Empire is indeed small. In Liu Yan's opinion, the Han people should become the only master of the blue star under their feet!

"Are you not afraid of trouble?" Tuobaxiu regretted when she asked. She has only a daughter and no son, but she is still at the age of childbearing. Who can be sure whether she will have a son in the future. When she saw Liu Yan looking at herself with strange eyes, she said, "you don't want a son."

There are some things Liu Yan can't say. He felt that the successor of the Empire was so incompetent that he could be kicked off the throne by his brothers who went out to seal the country, even though he mastered such a large basic plate and was also the strongest?

The Han Empire has restored feudalism. Those princes have their own vassal states, their own people, the right to collect taxes and the right to recruit soldiers.

The Marquis has all the rights and interests it should have, which itself is one of the risks. The shackles on the Marquis, in addition to the names of monarchs and ministers, that is, the Marquis needs to pay taxes to the central government.

Liu Yan will give Hou so much freedom. He knows very well that there will be no changes when he is alive. It can be predicted that there will be no problems within 100 years after his death. No matter how far away, there will be no way to guess.

The greatest role of enfeoffment of meritorious officials in contemporary times is to ensure that the land beaten down from foreign nationalities can be consolidated, and those who get enfeoffment will use their best efforts to suppress the possible restoration of foreign nationalities.

If the central government is directly under the central government, the appointed officials will never be more responsible than the feudal lord. The second is that they really stay too far away. When something happens, the local government will report to the central government and the central government will send instructions. If the local government can rely on its own strength to suppress it, it will become an invalid instruction when the central government's instructions arrive.

There are too many restricted things, and the central government can't afford to send troops all the way to fight the rebellion. It's better to divide the country directly and share the risk completely with the country.

If the enfeoffment of the country can not resist, naturally, the central government will send troops to fight down the lost land again. The land can be enfeoffed again or returned to the central government according to the situation.

Liu Yan can take all the risks. He knows what Zhou's enfeoffment is. He knows better that it is Zhou's enfeoffment that makes Zhuxia's old land so big.

There may be old things like the enfeoffment of the Zhou Dynasty, but Liu Yan doesn't really care so much. He only knows that one day the Han Empire will perish and the people who will establish the next Dynasty are still the descendants of Zhuxia.

Those things Liu Yan can't tell anyone. He also knew that he was not doing anything selfless. Otherwise, he would not still control the fattest land outside the mainland, and would continue to enfeoffe his son in the future.

In fact, Liu Yan simply can't make the Han Empire immortal. If he wants to destroy it, he can't be replaced by other races anyway!
