647
Although the boy born to Princess Qinghe is still in her infancy, he is also deeply loved by Liu Yu.
In order not to shake the status of the crown prince Liu Zhi, Liu Yu specially named him Longzhi to indicate different identities.
Although it was impossible for Liu Longzhi to inherit the throne, a royal family of a vassal king did not escape.
However, according to Xi Jian, letting Liu Longzhi enfeoffed the vassal for the sake of the blood of the Jin Dynasty made Liu Yu hesitate.
"The former Jin Dynasty was originally a pseudo-dynasty, and now it's over. If you sign a king to win over them because of this matter, wouldn't you criticize the previous resolution?" Liu Yu said with a frown.
Before turning against the Jin Dynasty in Jiangdong, Liu Yu had sent someone to promote an argument first.
That is to put Sima Jinshi on the concept of a pseudo-dynasty to prove his orthodox nature.
Originally, it was not a big deal to be named a vassal king, but because of the Sima family's bloodline, it would mean a bit of a slap in the face.
"Your Majesty, you can give a title of king, and there is no conflict at all."
Xi Jian then explained.
"Entering a vassal king in Jingzhou can not only prevent the generals from gaining self-respecting their troops from outside, but also make the remnants of Jin forces in Jiangdong have a decent position. It can be said that the best of both worlds."
After hearing these two benefits, Liu Yu also fell into thinking.
What Xi Jian said is indeed somewhat reasonable.
Liu Yu's family is really thin, and the two brothers are useless, and one nephew, Liu Xun, is brave and resourceful.
But it is precisely because Liu Xun is brave and resourceful, that Xi Jian, Gongsun Sheng and others are worried about him, and they all advised Liu Yu to restrain his military power.
The one you can count most now is the sons of these babies.
"I'm thinking about this."
Liu Yu finally decided to act cautiously.
After all, since Qin Shihuang completely abolished the feudal division and Sima Yan enthroned the royal family and vassal kings, the pros and cons of the feudal divisions have risen and fallen from time to time.
Now Liu Yu is a little confused.
After Xi Jian retreated, Liu Yu thought for a long time but had no idea.
At this time, Liu Yu thought of discussing with Gongsun Sheng.
After all, Hua Xiu and Xi Jian are all considered relatives.
Liu Yu's sons all have the blood of their family.
When this matter is involved, it is a bit difficult to be neutral.
After Gongsun Sheng came, he immediately made a statement when he heard Liu Yu’s statement.
"Your Majesty, I think this method is good and can be implemented!" Gongsun Sheng said.
Seeing this, Liu Zhou was stunned.
"Sir, why are you so sure? Are you not afraid of the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms and the Eight Kings?" Liu Yu asked.
"Haha, Your Majesty, the changes in the world are not simple repetitions." Gongsun Sheng said with a smile.
"What does this mean?" Liu Yu asked.
"Your Majesty, enfeoffing the royal family can re-establish the prestige of the Han Dynasty, let them know the value of the royal family and the preciousness of the imperial court."
Gongsun Sheng also felt that Liu Yu's clan was too thin, and his influence in local prefectures and counties was not as good as that of ordinary aristocratic families.
For ordinary people, the name of an emperor is really a bit empty. If he is a vassal king of a county, it will help strengthen the authority of the royal court.
"There are pros and cons of this matter. Are you not afraid of the vassal kings becoming bigger in the future?" Liu Yu said.
Although Liu Yu was confident that as long as he lived, no matter which son he became a vassal king, he would not rebel or cause trouble.
