"This Lanling County is quite famous in Donghai County, except for the county seat where the county government is located, the county seat that can be compared with Lanling, and there are only one or two in the entire Donghai County. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Outside the south gate of Lanling County, a young man with a lofty instrument was standing in front of the car, pointing to the county seat and making an introduction.

This person's name is Zuo Qing, he is a member of the Zuo family in Linzi, and he is Zuo Yuan's younger brother in terms of seniority, but he is a concubine, and he is the one who was sent over this time to greet Chen Zhi.

Previously, Chen Zhi and his entourage left the barren town and went north along the official road, and then met Zuo Qing waiting there in the villages and towns on the way.

According to Zuo Qing's statement, they were delayed because they received the news too slowly, but looking at the appearance of the dusty servants, they were indeed in a hurry all the way, in order to prevent them from diverging from Chen Zhi, they waited in the town where they had to pass, and they had to send people out all the time to prevent them from missing, but fortunately, they finally waited for Chen Zhi.

Then, Zuo Qing's group of seven people joined the team, in addition to Zuo Qing, there were six people, including four guards, and two children of the Zuo family, who were lower than Zuo Qing in terms of seniority.

Zuo Qing, as a person from Qingzhou, knows a lot about the places along the way, and he joined in, and the customs along the way are the head is the way, and he has been talking about Lanling County.

Listening to his description of the county seat, Liu Gang asked: "When Xuanwu was announced, didn't Donghai County be divided into two?" The east side is a royal fiefdom, and the west side, including Lanling County, isn't it independent? ”

When Zuo Qing heard this, he smiled and said: "Liu Gongzi asked well, Emperor Xuanwu is wise and martial, and dominates the world, he divides the East China Sea into two, which has his own intentions, but the king of the East China Sea is famous far and wide, and now he is in charge of the court and the world, and the people of the West East China Sea have long been yearning for it, so the people here also regard themselves as the people of the East China Sea." ”

This statement is quite obscure, but the subtext behind it is fully revealed-

Because the King of the East China Sea is now powerful, the arrangement of Emperor Xuanwu back then was already useless.

Speaking of this, we can see the characteristics of the royal princes of the New Han Dynasty, they were canonized as queens, not only enjoying a certain degree of authority in the local area, but also being able to participate in court politics and serve as courtiers.

From the perspective of future generations, this is a big problem, but we always have to consider the situation at that time.

This is a historical problem, the root cause can be traced back to the time when the New Han team was created, and Chen Zhi was also involved in it, so he knew very well that when Liu Bei's group went south, in order to gain a firm foothold, he made too many concessions to the family, which led to the weight of the family, and later, in order to balance, he had to reuse the people of the clan, give them real power, and check and balance.

Such a situation also existed after the unification of Xuanwu, plus the new determination in the north, the people who needed to believe in the town guarded, and canonized a number of kings with the same surname, and these princes held positions in the court at the same time, just to support the royal family.

This move, in the eyes of later generations, must have many drawbacks, but at that time it was a practical method, and Emperor Xuanwu himself could control the scene, he could not ignore the immediate crisis in order to avoid hidden dangers in the future, in that case, there may be no future.

"I've prepared an inn in the city, and I'm waiting for Mr. Chen and you to come over." After Zuo Qing finished speaking, the servant who negotiated with the city gate guards also returned, accompanied by the city guard leader, who followed with a flattering smile.

After a brief conversation, the convoy drove into the city, and when they entered the inn, an invitation from Lanling County was also sent, inviting them to a dinner, but on this invitation, the main person marked was Zhao Xing, not Chen Zhi.

The further north you go, the slower the flow of information, and the gradual decay of Chen Zhi's influence, which can most clearly show the degree of a person's family, background, and foundation.

Chen Zhi didn't take these things to heart, and as soon as he arrived at the inn, he rested.

The inn selected by Zuo Qing is the top in Lanling County, the layout is acceptable, everyone has rested at this time after a few days of hard work, which makes people feel comfortable, and Chen Zhi is no exception.

So he didn't even use the Spring and Autumn pillow, and just took a nap.

It wasn't until the evening that Chen Zhi got up again, and after tidying up, he went to the lobby below and gathered with a few friends.

Zhao Xing said with a smile: "I just took a turn in the city, this Lanling County is really prosperous, and it is a few points better than Wuyuan." ”

Zuo Qing agreed: "Zhao Jun has good eyesight, the land of Lanling, since Xuanwu, is one of the important places to communicate with the East and West East China Seas, so there are many businessmen, and it is prosperous." ”

Lu Ying said: "I saw several bulletin boards, many of them were news released by the East China Sea King's Mansion, and the influence of the East China Sea King in this place is really not small. ”

"The King of the East China Sea is a famous and virtuous king, of course many people listen to his words," Zuo Qing didn't think it was strange, obviously he had seen a lot, and he had already heard of it, "Not only the East and West East China Sea, but also Langya County in the north, also admires the King of the East China Sea very much, that King Langya is still young, and many government affairs will be carried out after consulting the King of the East China Sea." ”

"How can the King of the East Sea be so powerful?"

Even Lu Ying was a little surprised when he heard this, he has lived in Jiangdong for a long time, and he also understands the affairs of the imperial court, and has also heard the name of the king of the East China Sea, and even knows that when the Marquis of Wuxiang goes north, there is the king of the East China Sea behind him, but the dominance is one thing, after all, it is the government of the court, and the position of the king of the East China Sea is there, but in front of him is a local county, and it is not the fief of the king of the East China Sea, but it is such a situation, which has to make people sigh.

You must know that when Xuanwu was canonized, he had explicitly restricted the power of the princes and kings, but now when he hears it, it has no effect on the king of the East China Sea at all.

According to the rules of the New Han Dynasty, whether it is a prince, a king, or even a royal county, the fief is at most only one county, and unless there are special circumstances, the princes and kings can only act as the personnel appointment and government affairs of the county government, and the personnel of other counties in the county are still under the command of the imperial court, and at most part of the tax is given to the royal government, and as for the military power, there are strict restrictions.

Zhao Xing said: "The king of the East China Sea is the uncle of the emperor of today's saint, and when the emperor died, he was specially entrusted to govern and assist the present, so it is not surprising that he has such authority." ”

The imperial line of the new Han Dynasty originated from Emperor Zhaolie Liu Bei, Liu Bei's temple name Liezu, Zhaolie is his nickname, Liu Bei is followed by Renzong Liu Chan, nicknamed Emperor Xiaohuai, Liu Chan passed the throne to the seventh son Liu Chen, the temple name Ruizong, and the nickname Emperor Xiaode.

Liu Chen has three sons, wearing the eldest son Liu Min, this Liu Min temple number Chengzong, nickname Xuanwu, dominate the world, reign for 19 years, leaving many great achievements, far-reaching impact on the entire Xinhan Dynasty.

Liu Min had five sons, and the throne passed to the fourth son Liu Zhen, who is the father of the present day, but this former emperor did not have a temple name, and his name was filial piety.

Liu Qiu, the elder brother of Emperor Liu Zhen and the third son of Xuanwu, was named the king of the East China Sea, guarding this place, and now holds an important position above the court, and has not been in the fief for many years, but has such a great influence on the fief and the surrounding counties, which is indeed amazing.

This matter couldn't help but make Chen Zhi a little concerned.

"The authority of the King of the East China Sea is inevitably a little excessive, I don't know if there is a check and balance in the court?"

Thinking of this, he shook his head again, clearly realizing that today's court structure is actually relatively rough and limited, and it is definitely not a good thing to have two evenly matched characters in a political dispute.

After saying a few words about topics related to the King of the East China Sea, Zuo Qing saw that the atmosphere was almost brewing, so he said the right thing in a timely manner: "Everyone, in addition to coming here, in addition to welcoming a few people, it is convenient to greet our Zuo family along the way and prevent accidents, and the other is to inform you that my Zuo family's cultural meeting will be held in Linyi County, Langya County." ”

Liu Gang was very surprised, and couldn't help asking: "I changed the place, why did you move to Langya Kingdom?" ”

Langya country is Langya County, is the fief of the king of Langya, this prince is the younger brother of today, but not from the queen, his mother is the person of the Langya Wang, and Langya County is naturally the base camp of the Langya Wang, the influence in the north is very great, the Zuojia Wenhui is to be held in such a place, and there are naturally considerations behind it.

The Zuo family is located in Linzi, in the north of Langya County, and the land of Langya is separated by a county, such a geographical location, the Zuo family cannot have much foundation in Langya country, but since the change of land is held, there must be a connection inside.

Chen Zhi still remembers that when Zuo Yuan and Zuo Jing found him, they said that they said that the juniors of the family had offended Zhu Shou's nephew and the people of the Wang family, so why did they turn their faces and run to the Wang family's territory to hold a meeting?

Zuo Qing did not hide it, and said honestly: "On the one hand, it is to avoid the suppression of several big clans, on the other hand, it is also forced by the Wang family, the Langya Wang family has the intention to hold a grand event, and enter the apricot altar because of the contradiction some time ago, my Zuo family bowed to the Wang family, and was put forward this condition, saying that it was to move the Wenhui to Linyi County, and I heard that there are several other Wenhui who have also moved their respective Wenhui over. ”

"Oh?" Tao Ya was a little surprised, "I didn't expect the Wang family to be so easy to speak." ”

"Originally, it was not easy to speak," Zuo Qing smiled bitterly, "I can't hide it, the person who offended people was in the lower clan, and he offended one of them, one of whom was the nephew of Wang Dun, the assassin of Yangzhou, who did not forgive, forced us to wait for almost no way, fortunately, Wang Maohong later sent someone over, adjusted in the middle, and gave this method to calm down, otherwise, alas, ......" As he spoke, he sighed.

"Wang Maohong? That's Director Wang. Zhao Xing smiled when he heard this, "This person is a gentle gentleman, and talking to him is like a spring breeze." ”

Director Wang?

Chen Zhi immediately paid attention.

This is the protagonist of the original history of "the king and the horse share the world"!

However, when he wanted to ask a few words, a commotion suddenly came from outside the inn, interrupting the words-

"What's going on? Can the people of the Zuo family still be able to charter the inn? Don't let Ben Gongzi in? Do you know who I am? Annoyed me Zhu Jing, who in Qingzhou can keep you? ”

As soon as these words entered, Zuo Qing suddenly changed color.
