The content of the last edict.

The first part can be skipped hastily, and the middle part is the heir appointed by Lao Yue King, the establishment of orthodoxy, and the appointment and dismissal of important officials.

It is no problem to determine Wang Ge as the heir, but the problem lies in the selection of the three princes.

"Let Xuandi's adviser come to be the prime minister of the Yue Kingdom?" Wang Ge slandered.

On the surface, his expression was tense, but in fact he was crazily complaining in his heart.

Wang Ge knew that the imperial court had the idea of ​​reducing the vassal. This is the inertia of history, and it will not be changed because of a certain person's idea.

The Great Unified Dynasty naturally rejected the existence of feudal kings.

But Wang Ge really didn't expect that his cheap father would directly ask the court to send someone to be his prime minister.

The prime minister is the head of all officials, and all government affairs, big and small, are handled by the prime minister. It can be said that the prime minister is the person who knows the operation of the country best.

Letting Emperor Xuan's people be the prime ministers of the Yue Kingdom is equivalent to the imperial court controlling the entire bureaucratic system of the Yue Kingdom.

This kind of result made Wang Ge feel quite grassy.

There is a sense of sight of "the ministers want to fight to the death, why does your majesty surrender first".

The imperial court has not started to cut down the vassal, but has handed over the power of the country to the imperial court?

However, Wang Ge also found that although Lao Yue Wang was bad, he was not completely bad.

The position of Sikong is still in the hands of the old Yue king, and he arranges for his own people. Sikong is the deputy prime minister, and he also has the power to supervise all officials, which can restrict the power of the prime minister to a certain extent.

Lao Yue Wang was still in his edict, expressing that he hoped that Wang Ge would trust Sikong, and that he could ask Sikong for advice on all matters big and small.

"This is to leave me with someone who can be used, so that I will not completely lose control of the court."

Wang Ge sighed in his heart, secretly politics is indeed an art of balance.

"As for military power."

It was clearly written in the imperial edict that the Taiwei stationed in Miao County and guarded the frontier so that the Nanman did not dare to invade.

As far as Wang Ge knows, there is still a strong barbarian force in the south of the Yue Kingdom, who often go north to harass and rob money and disturb the people. There is no problem with the Taiwei's garrison here, and the Taiwei himself is an old subordinate of the old Yue King.

This seems quite normal, but combined with another article in the will:

King Lao Yue actually handed over all other military powers to King Qing!

King Qing is also a vassal king, but he is a clan relative to Emperor Xuan, not a king with a different surname like Wang Ge.

The geographical location of Qing State is located in the middle of Yue State and Daxuan Dynasty, and Wang Ge passed by Qing State when returning to the fiefdom.

It can be said that Yue and Qing are "neighbors".

But Lao Yue King gave this neighbor a large amount of military power and three fertile lands!

"Cut off your own arm to show it's harmless?"

If it wasn't for Yan Fei and Tai Changqing by his side, Wang Ge had to maintain his demeanor, otherwise he would have screamed.

The prime minister is handed over, the military power is also handed over, and the territory is also handed over

Wang Ge's expression was tense, but his breathing was a little short, and his eyes narrowed slightly:

"Well, it's not that the Yue Kingdom has no soldiers, it's just that the number of soldiers is not large, and they are all used to defend the barbarians and maintain basic law and order. For the Qing Kingdom in the north, it is almost undefended. Of course, fortification may not be useful, after all, the prime minister is court people.

Hiss——, thinking about it this way, my cheap dad showed a 'disarmed' attitude when facing the court, and on the other hand, he had to strictly guard against foreigners.

Well, it was mentioned in the posthumous edict that guarding the frontier was an important task entrusted by Emperor Xuan, and it was also described with the solemn words "the foundation of the country".

It seems that my cheap old man believes that guarding the frontier is one of the fundamental reasons for the imperial court to allow the Yue Kingdom to continue to exist.

While submitting to the imperial court to show that he was harmless, he also left certain countermeasures, such as the position arrangement of Sikong and Taiwei, and 9,000 elite soldiers were also retained under the pretext of guarding the border."

Wang Ge thought for a while.

He doesn't think that his cheap father is a soft-headed idiot. After all, he is also a prince who came out of troubled times, and his methods and strategies must be online.

Through a posthumous edict, Wang Ge could see that the old Yue king left arrangements before his death, which created a delicate balance between the imperial court and the Yue kingdom.

To put it simply, the Yue State has no rebellious heart, and most of the military power and position are handed over to the court.

The State of Yue helped the imperial court guard the frontiers. If the imperial court wanted to withdraw from the State of Yue and send troops to attack and destroy the State, let alone the counterattack of the State of Yue, it was the problem of the invasion of the Southern Barbarians.

"Comparing the other six princes and kings with different surnames, the Yue Kingdom is indeed not worthy of the court's great efforts. My cheap old man is going to retreat."

Wang Ge understood in his heart, he was clear about the current situation of the Yue Kingdom.

Just four words: keep yourself safe

"My cheap old man also emphasized that the common people are weary of war and yearn for peace. In this period, as long as I don't do anything outrageous, don't go against righteousness, don't go against the wishes of the people, the imperial court has no reason to recruit civilians and send troops to attack Yue. .

It's sort of arranged everything for me. "

After Wang Ge understood the edict, he suddenly realized that he, the king of Xinyue, didn't seem to need to do anything!

"Government affairs are handled by the prime minister sent by the imperial court. I can't touch them. In terms of military affairs, the Taiwei garrisoned in Miao County. There are only enough troops to guard the border. It's not easy for me to recruit troops. At most, I can learn about the movements of civil and military officials through Sikong. , not to blacken Chaotang's eyes, but it is limited to understanding and supervision, and nothing else can be done.

My cheap daddy only left me one way - lie flat. "

Wang Ge gritted his teeth secretly.

If he's just an ordinary son of a prince, and he can't be high or low, then he can lie flat and do what he likes, that's fine.

Although the royal power is not in his hands, the king's wealth, Wang Ge, can be squandered at will.

Beautiful women are like clouds, gold lovers are drunk, drunk life dreams, this is all right.

Anyway, I don't need Wang Ge to manage things, just have fun.

But Wang Ge thought of his stone monkey avatar again,

"The seed of gods and demons can gain longevity; the elves of heaven and earth have unparalleled talents"

Extraordinary power!

This is the fairy fate that Emperor Qian couldn't find with all the power of the whole country back then, and Wang Ge has this opportunity!

"In the Great Age of Doom, stone-born spirit monkeys need luck to grow up, and the best way for me to improve luck is to become the King of Yue who pays equal attention to morality and power."

Wang Ge frowned slightly.

The eyes of Mingling opened secretly, he squinted his eyes, and glanced at Tai Changqing who was leaning over in front of him.

Officially living in Jiuqing, a wealthy family, Tai Changqing's body luck is blue-purple, 30% purple, 70% blue, which is quite extraordinary.

"There are at least eight people like this, plus Sangong, and other court officials. If I can use them all, my luck will increase, and the stone-born spirit monkey will be nourished even more."

Wang Ge thought secretly, struggling between choices.

But Tai Changqing, who was bowing his head, suddenly throbbed, inexplicably feeling the coercion of the son Wang Ge in front of him.

Tai Changqing didn't know why, until a calm voice came from his ear:

"I have read the last edict of the late king, can Qing Taichang have any opinions?"

Tai Changqing reacted and responded immediately:

"When you choose a good day and auspicious day, call all the officials, welcome the son, return to the king's capital, sacrifice to God, and inherit the great position."

Tai Changqing's answer was well-behaved.

Wang Ge nodded slightly and said, "It should be so."

Tai Changqing arched his hands, and was about to continue talking about the arrangements, but heard the young master Wang Ge say:

"But is there anything special about auspicious days? I have also read "Xingzhi Tianwen", but I want to ask Tai Changqing for advice on choosing a date."

Tai Changqing was slightly taken aback, a little confused.

However, the corners of Wang Ge's mouth rose, he thought of a solution to the difficulty!
