Chapter 1180: Inheritance System

The system of succession to the throne is related to the long-term stability of a dynasty, and everyone is very cautious.

Zhang Yu looked at everyone and took a sip of tea before saying: "There is no system of establishing a chief or a concubine in this dynasty, my son is my son, and there is no distinction between concubines and concubines. ”

"The heir to the throne, only the right one lives."

Zhang Yu was going to abolish the primogeniture inheritance system all of a sudden, which lasted for thousands of years.

However, everyone thinks that this is normal, Zhang Yu has always broken the tradition.

He has already broken too many things, and this time Zhang Yu broke any tradition again, and it doesn't seem to be a big problem.

Breaking the primogeniture inheritance system, I don't know if it's good or bad, and everyone doesn't know, but there is an edict of succession, and there should be no chaos.

At least now Zhang Yu is here, and he is a very strong emperor, and he can correct problems in time.

This is the right person to live in, not the capable to live in, nor is it anything else.

Yes, this is a more considerate thing.

Zhang Yu then said: "The children of the royal family cannot be supported by the empire, they can be ordinary people, they can farm, they can do business, but they are direct relatives of the emperor within three generations, except for special circumstances, they are not allowed to be officials." ”

"The descendants of the royal family, within two generations, can be supported by a certain amount of money from the royal fund, and after two generations, they must be self-reliant, and neither the royal family nor the empire will help."

Zhang Yu is more harsh on his children and grandchildren.

He thought of the Ming Dynasty, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang, who had more than a dozen sons, but later, the members of the royal family grew to more than 100,000 people, who were distributed in various places, owned a large amount of land, had fiefs, and became moths, which caused great harm.

These royal descendants can completely drag down an empire, this is not alarmist, but inevitable.

The same is true of the Manchus, who raised the children of the Eight Banners, who had to take most of the money from the treasury every year, and if they did nothing all day, they would be powerful and powerful, causing the empire to be extremely weak.

Zhang Yu did not allow such a thing to happen.

Therefore, he wants to make the descendants of the royal family the same as ordinary people.

His children and grandchildren slowly broke away from the royal family and became ordinary people.

Zhang Yu opened his mouth again and said: "My descendants are not allowed to have any fiefdoms in Huaxia, overseas, in the southeast, and Fusang, if it is an overseas barren land, if they are willing to conquer, they can give some help from the royal fund." ”

Zhang Yu wants to let them out of the royal family, so naturally he will not give them the title of king, and let them inherit it from generation to generation.

Zhang Yu has more systems formulated, and the cabinet members, you and I look at each other, and they all feel that Zhang Yu is too harsh on the royal family.

From ancient times to the present, the royal family should have preferential treatment.

There is nothing wrong with giving them knighthoods and fiefs, and there can even be a country within a country.

But Zhang Yu doesn't want to do this, and his descendants will also have some promising people.

And the later members of the royal family, maybe hundreds of thousands of people, have been corrupted, and there will be no promising people to come out.

Or because of the sensitive identity of the royal family, he didn't dare to do anything, and he was afraid that the emperor at that time would raid his home.

Separated from the royal family, the descendants of future generations can do what they want, which is better for them.

Of course, if you mix poorly, you will be like ordinary people, you can't do it, and you can still go to work and farm.

"Okay, there are more than 20 systems in total, you study them carefully, continue to improve, if there are no problems, they will be announced after a while, and after they are announced, there is no place to implement these systems now, and if you find problems, you will revise them in time."

On the issue of the royal family, Zhang Yu showed an iron-hearted side, and his descendants should give them a good starting point.

As for wanting more, try to go on your own.

In fact, if this is not the case, it is also dangerous for them, and the ancient emperor was suspicious of other people and killed many royal descendants.

How many descendants of Liu Bang were killed by Lu Pheasant in the Han Dynasty, how many royal family members were killed by Wu Zetian, and the people who came after him were the same, killing a lot of people.

Therefore, Zhang Yu directly let them out of the royal family, and there would be no large-scale killing.

Zhang Yu formulated these systems and asked the cabinet to continue to study and fill the loopholes.

"In three days, a meeting will be held to deal with military affairs."

Zhang Yu's focus is still on the military and politics, and he must have a unified strategy for Liu Bei and Ma Teng as soon as possible.

You can't be in a hurry without being in a hurry, after all, the empire has too many wars and needs to rest.

And it also needs large-scale construction, and it also needs to guard against the West, so Zhang Yu suspended the offensive and stabilized it first.

Zhang Yu can actually kill Ma Teng now, and it is still possible for a million army to drive straight in.

But in that way, the contact with the West will be cut off, and the Silk Road is very important to Zhang Yu, which can mobilize the development of the entire industry and stimulate the whole country to work hard.

Zhang Yu wants to promote one innovation after another, which requires a foreign enemy, and in the case of a foreign enemy, Zhang Yu can maintain a strong military force and at the same time be able to divert the attention of the people.

External enemies are always more serious than internal problems, and they must be united with the outside world when it is critical.

Even, once there is an uncontrollable situation in the process of innovation, Zhang Yu can have an excuse to send troops, or even directly launch an attack on the West.

Keep Ma Teng, keep the West, as long as there is enough preparation, it can become the driving force for the development of the empire.

The news of Zhang Yu's formulation of the inheritance system for the royal family still spread, of course, it was Zhang Yu's own news.

This can reassure the people, and the system will be introduced soon, and everyone is looking forward to it, regardless of the outcome, there will finally be a result.

Many relatives are most concerned, the Mi family, the Qiao family, and the Zhen family are all big businessmen, and they are also very concerned.

Their daughters can't become emperors, and if the prince can be crowned king, it will also be of great benefit to them.

Zhang Yu was afraid of such a thing, these big businessmen would never dare to do anything when they were there, but after a few generations, they might use the privileges in their hands to do a lot of things.

When the news is released, just wait for the result, Zhang Yu is very strong now, and he is not afraid of anyone opposing it, and those who oppose it can only be annihilated under his army.

"Alas, for a long time, I really can't go out of Beijing."

After formulating these policies, when they are announced, Zhang Yu will sit in the capital, and depending on the situation in various places, it is really not suitable to go out of Beijing.

Three days later, Zhang Yu convened another cabinet meeting, this time to discuss the war against the West and Liu Bei.

Three days passed quickly, and the matter of Zhang Yu wanting to stipulate the dynasty spread quickly, and there was a storm and turmoil outside, and they all looked at Zhang Yu.

But Zhang Yu was very indifferent, he would deal with whatever things he should handle, convene a cabinet meeting, and deal with the affairs of the west.
