Chapter 1315 Five Cities
Yuan Qingling said awkwardly: "I just think it's too early to enfeoffment now."
The Supreme Emperor said: "It seems a little early to divide the brigades now, but Gu is not just afraid that they will fight in the future, but these five children will have great prospects in the future. The enfeoffment of these five cities is due to the armistice agreement signed between the Northern Tang and the Northern Mo. It is estimated that the Beimo will tear it apart in twenty years. These five cities will be torn down. These five cities rely on our northern Tang border, and are our best defense line. Twenty years later, the children have grown up. With their ability, they can turn these five cities into Northern Tang, and instead become the best barrier for us to resist the Northern Mo. This is Gu's plan for the Northern Tang for twenty years. The people of those five cities must know who their king is from now on."
Chu Shoufu added next to him, "So, before the army returned to the court, he had ordered General Hu to arrange for him to move some people in the Xiuzhou Prefecture of Jiangbei Prefecture to migrate to these cities, intermarry with local people, and even encourage inland people to continue to migrate there, expand the population of our Northern Tang, and let the roots of the Northern Tang be planted into the land of the five cities, and hold them firmly."
Yuan Qingling was a little moved when he heard this. He didn't expect that they would think so long. No one knew what kind of world would be like in twenty years. However, only by formulating the plan can we know how to go ahead and control variables to the greatest extent.
Since they decided, Yuan Qingling was not inconvenient to say anything. After all, even if the enfeoffment was granted, the children would not be able to go now, and they still had to send someone to take care of them.
After Yuan Qingling left the palace, he told Lao Wu about this.
Unexpectedly, Lao Wu had known it a long time ago. On the day of the celebration, the Supreme Emperor asked him what he meant, and he thought it was OK.
Yuan Qingling said: "You knew it before, but you didn't tell me."
"Forgot."
Lao Wu smiled embarrassedly.
"Can you forget this? Is it a big deal to enfeoffment?"
Lao Wu's handsome man Yizhan, "I didn't think it was a big deal at that time. I promised it mainly because the taxes and fiefs of these five cities were all distributed to them in the future, so I agreed if I had money."
Yuan Qingling was speechless by his deliberate approach to money.
"I just don't know if my father agrees or not?"
Yuan Qingling was still quite worried about this. After all, this was the Supreme Emperor's decision. Listening to him why he asked him to agree with this sentence can prove that he had never discussed it with his father.
"The father should not object..." Lao Wu paused, but frowned again, "If the father had other plans, he would probably have distributed a city to Lao Ten. If this is true, we would not want Xiao Laifu, and our daughter would not have to be granted such a faraway place."
After all, her father also has the throne to inherit.
Yuan Qingling said: "Let's not talk about this for now. The Supreme Emperor will probably communicate well with his father."
After all, nothing they say is appropriate, and even humility makes people feel aggressive.
Lao Wu’s guess is quite reliable.
The Emperor of the Supreme Emperor had not yet mentioned this, but Emperor Mingyuan first told Concubine Hu.
In fact, he thought about it for a long time. Concubine Hu was his beloved woman. He also liked Xiao Lao Shi very much. If he wanted to be kind to him, it was impossible for him to be the prince. He would not be so irrational and could only be a vassal.
However, if you are so young, you will inevitably be told by the old ministers that the cities cedeed by Beimo still have relatively difficult problems. They just happened to be given to Xiao Lao Shi and let General Hu guard there, so there must be no one to talk about it.
Before talking to Concubine Hu, he mentioned it to Madam Mu Ru, who said cautiously: "Emperor, do you seek the consent of the Supreme Emperor first?"
"No need, the Supreme Emperor will not interfere."
Emperor Mingyuan felt that there was no need for this, and the territory of the Northern Tang Dynasty was still there, and there would be no change. As for the arrangements for the territory, the Supreme Emperor never interfered. If he asked about these small matters, it would seem that he had no decision.
Madam Mu Ru dared to persuade him again, "In the past, the Supreme Emperor might not interfere in political affairs, but this time he personally led the army to fight back these cities. I thought that the emperor should ask the Supreme Emperor first!"
Emperor Mingyuan felt that what he said made sense, so he thought about it and said, "I will mention it when I pay my respects tomorrow!"
Madam Mu Ru smiled, "The Emperor is wise!"
Emperor Mingyuan ordered him to pack up his things and went to Hu Fei's palace.
Concubine Hu still has a little discomfort these days and has paid great attention to food and drink. However, her stomach is poor and it cannot be improved in a day or two, so he came over to stare at her for meals as much as possible.
Xiao Lao Shi liked to stick to his father. As soon as his father came, he would act coquettishly in his arms. The other children of Emperor Mingyuan had grown up, and there was a little man sticking to him like this, and he was very happy.
Sometimes he knows that he is too popular with Xiao Lao Shi, but where can anyone who is a father do not spoil his son?
“What have you eaten recently?
I'm eating so fat, I'm about to catch up with your second brother!"
Emperor Mingyuan smiled and patted his little butt, and it was so funny.
Xiao Lao Shi curled his lips, "I don't want to be like my second brother. My second brother looks like a pig, so ugly."
Concubine Hu shook her face and said, "Who promised you to criticize your second brother like this?"
Xiao Lao Shi was scolded by Concubine Hu and immediately did not dare to speak out.
Emperor Mingyuan felt sorry for his son, so he hugged him in his arms and said, "What are you doing for him to be cruel?
Children are talking nonsense.”
Concubine Hu said helplessly: "Your Majesty, Tong Yanwuji has to make a difference. He disrespects his second brother. If the prince is told to listen, how bad is it?"
When Emperor Mingyuan saw his son flattening his mouth and looking like he was about to cry, he always felt that Concubine Hu had a problem with his discipline. He always grabbed him for small matters, but did not urge him to make progress. He said, "The second child will not care about him, and he is really as fat as a pig. He doesn't know how to control himself, so don't let others talk about him?"
"that is!"
Xiao Lao Shi muttered dissatisfiedly.
Hu Fei slapped the table in anger, "Do you still dare to say it?"
When Xiao Lao Shi slapped the table, he cried directly. Emperor Mingyuan gave Concubine Hu a blank look, "It's all right, you have to make him cry, right?"
Hu Fei said seriously: "Your Majesty, you are the princes. You are the prince. You must have seldom taught yourself personally. You don't understand that the child may not have malice, but if the adults agree with him, he will think that he is correct and become more unscrupulous. You can't indulge him like this, otherwise you will harm him sooner or later."
Emperor Mingyuan did not personally teach his children that during the Supreme Emperor's dynasty, although there was no such thing as fighting for the throne, the disasters had been repeated for many years. As the crown prince, he left Beijing to deal with matters, and he rarely stayed in the mansion in a year.
Later, when the Supreme Emperor abdicated and ascended the throne, he was busier than when he was the prince, so he naturally could not spare his time to take care of the children.
This is also the reason why he often feels guilty towards his eldest son Yuwen Jun.
