Chapter 10(2/2)
Firstly, it allowed those royal relatives to care about national affairs, and secondly, it also made it easier for the emperor to supervise them.
After the founding of the Taiji Dynasty, the system of managing royal relatives of the Daqing Dynasty was abolished.
During the Daqing Dynasty, princes, commanders, and kings all lived in their own fiefdoms and were not allowed to leave the fiefdoms without an imperial decree.
It can be regarded as a disguised form of imprisonment, but this system has too many disadvantages.
Most of the princes were self-reliant in supporting troops and would send troops to serve the king at every turn, which made the emperor very nervous.
Especially when the Daqing Dynasty collapsed, princes from all over the country occupied land and became kings one after another and supported their troops to support themselves. This was also an important reason for the rapid collapse of the Daqing Dynasty.
After the Tianji Dynasty was founded, a series of reforms were carried out on the royal family.
First of all, all royal relatives are not allowed to have their own armed forces, except for their own personal guards.
Even if he is an imperial relative with military power, his army only obeys the emperor's orders.
Second, all the royal relatives of the first-level princes must live in Longdu and are not allowed to go out without an imperial decree.
Although the county king could live in his own fiefdom, he had no military power and was unable to rebel if he wanted to.
In this way, these royal relatives can only be obedient. After all, the power of life and death lies in the hands of the emperor.
The once-a-month court meeting also made it easy for the emperor to discover the available talents among his relatives.
Amidst the shaking of the carriage, Liu Xia arrived outside the palace gate.
As soon as Liu Xia got off the car, he saw that outside the palace, your various gorgeous cars were already parked.
These personal soldiers of princes and princes are all heroic, majestic and very grand.
Liu Xia went out relatively late, and by the time he arrived, most of the royal relatives had already arrived.
Looking around, there are more than 300 majestic carriages. It has to be said that the royal family of the Tianji Dynasty has a huge team and is not small in scale.
However, when Liu Xia's carriage just arrived, the princes in groups stopped talking and looked at Liu Xia's carriage one after another.
Liu Xia became the prince, which shocked Longdu.
Moreover, everyone knows about his achievements in wiping out the Holy Cult and eradicating the Demonic Cult in the northwest.
What made them even more curious was that when Liu Xia first entered the court, the emperor seemed to be particularly favorable to him. He couldn't help but give him meals and allowed him to stay in the palace for one night, which made people very jealous.
Therefore, everyone can't wait to see what this prince looks like.
However, when Liu Xia's car arrived, everyone was shocked.
Although the carriage is very ordinary, the Dabao is too conspicuous.
"I heard that that spiritual beast is a senior monk from the Cihang Yin Sect."
"Yes, it's not easy. Let a senior monk from the Cihang Yin Sect be the groom."
"I heard that he is also a master."
"yes!!"
Immediately there was a murmur of whispers.
At this time, Liu Xia got out of the car. When everyone saw it, they couldn't help but be stunned again.
It seems that Liu Xia's age is beyond their expectations.
Moreover, Liu Xia was carrying a wooden barrel in the office today, and he didn't know what was inside, which made everyone even more curious.
At this time, the Zhengyang Gate of the palace slowly opened, and Eunuch Chen Mo, the general manager of the inner court, personally came out with a group of young eunuchs.
He shook the dust in his hand and said, "The Holy One has a decree."
Immediately, all the royal family members came forward, knelt down in front of the Zhengyang Gate, and bowed down, shouting long live the mountain.
"Please, all princes and marquises, come to the palace to pay homage."
"My lord, I obey the order."
