Prince Su Shu saw everyone coming out of Qianqing Palace, and they all looked worried.

No matter how well-educated the officials are, they will be excited when they hear that their father has the idea of ​​once again granting them royal titles and allowing them to go overseas to build a country.

They will try their best to have their names appear on the enfeoffment decree.

There are many people among them. When my father first entrusted them, they worked hard and had a chance to get a quota.

These people were afraid that their father was selecting loyal ministers, or that they believed that his father paid lip service but did not live up to his words.

When they saw how things would develop, they felt extremely regretful that they did not seize this opportunity.

Now that they see this opportunity again, these highly qualified veterans will definitely do everything they can to seize this opportunity.

Prince Su Shu can also guess why his father did this?

This should be a type of proxy war as my father said.

The empire provided supplies and allowed these vassal states to fight with European countries and tribes in Arabia.

This strategy directly aims to weaken enemies and allies so that neither party can grow, threatening the empire's status.

That is to say, there are no usable indigenous nations on the American continent.

Otherwise, my father would have adopted this method in America, instead of allowing conflicts between vassal states.

By doing this, the empire can also keep abreast of all the situations in the vassal country.

Once it is discovered that the vassal country is weaker than its opponent, the empire will provide a large amount of assistance to try to preserve the vassal country's chance of making a comeback.

If the vassal state is stronger than its opponent, the empire can weaken the vassal state by reducing aid and other methods to maintain a balance between the two forces.

In this way, forces hostile to the empire cannot develop and grow. In the process of continuous consumption of vassal states, their development speed will inevitably be slowed down and will definitely not be as fast as the development speed of the empire.

In this way, the vassal state will always remain a vassal state and cannot escape the control of the empire.

Even if the vassal state is not very free, these ministers are eager to establish a vassal state.

They are now in extremely prestigious positions, with little chance of promotion, and at most they can get a little honorary title.

The founding monarch is so attractive, he can not only bring countless benefits to the family, but also be famous in history.

Whether it's profit or fame, as long as you become the founding monarch, it won't be a problem.

…………………………

Prince Su Shu did not return to the Prince's East Palace, but went to Kunning Palace where Queen Wang Wenjun was.

He walked into Kunning Palace and saw the eldest princess Su Rong holding a little girl in her arms, sitting next to the queen Wang Wenjun, watching a movie together.

He had seen this movie before. It was not a propaganda movie invested by the imperial court.

It was a movie that his mother used her own money to find someone to shoot.

The name of the movie is "The Great Doctor", which tells the story of his grandpa's magnificent life.

Prince Su Shu believed that his grandfather's greatest contribution was not to open Wang's Medical Clinic and train a group of doctors with superb medical skills.

Instead, he raised his daughter Wang Wenjun.

When Queen Wang Wenjun saw Prince Su Shu arriving, she signaled for people to turn off the movie and all the maids to go out.

The eldest princess Su Rong knew that her younger brother and the queen mother had important matters to discuss.

Now, apart from coming to pay my respects during festivals, my brother usually doesn't come to Kunning Palace for no reason.

Although she is the eldest princess of the royal family, she is married to an outsider after all.

Su Rong should never hear some royal secrets.

The eldest princess Su Rong immediately stood up and said: "Mother, there are still some things at home that need my daughter to go back and deal with.

Whenever the Queen misses Yan'er, I will bring her to see the Queen immediately."

The eldest princess Su Rong hugged her daughter and taught: "Yan'er said goodbye to uncle."

I remembered a childish sound of milky milk.

"Uncle, goodbye."

Prince Su Shu said with a smile: "Sister, Xiao Yan'er, we will meet again when we have time."

Prince Su Shu waited until his sister left with her children.

Only then did he tell his mother what happened in the Qianqing Palace today.

After Queen Wang Wenjun heard this, he pointed out pointedly: "Su Ming is your biological brother, and you can't even tolerate him.

How are you going to convince your father to entrust him to Europe?"

When Queen Wang Wenjun heard Prince Su Shu's tone, she knew what Prince Su Shu was thinking.

She has taught Prince Su Shu since he was a child and is very familiar with this son.

Prince Su Shu's wings were growing, and Emperor Su He had no intention of deposing the prince.

If he wants to deal with other princes, he doesn't need to come to Kunning Palace to discuss with him in a low profile.

There is only one exception for the prince, and that is the fourth prince Su Ming, who is a compatriot from the same mother and is five years younger than him.

When Prince Su Shu heard what the Queen Wang Wenjun said, he said helplessly: "The status of mother and son has been fulfilled.

If other princes want to compete with their son, then they should see the real seal in their hands.

Su Ming must be Erchen's younger brother. Erchen doesn't want to turn against him, so he asks his mother to do so.

Besides, Su Ming is not a gentleman. He prefers to have fun, and also likes to paint and recite poems.

These two hobbies are not hobbies that my father likes.

It is completely useless for a mother to support her younger brothers, so it is better to fully support her sons to rise to power."

Queen Wang Wenjun fell into deep thought. The prince of the founding emperor usually ended badly.

This was when the founding emperor was in his prime and the prince had grown up.

The conflict between the imperial power and the power of the prime minister is very fierce. The power of the emperor and the prince may not seem to conflict fiercely, but in fact it is very fierce.

Especially the founding emperors and Mingjun, they were talented and strategic.

They will never allow outsiders, even his own sons, to share the power that belongs to him.

This is the reason why the founding emperor and the prince of Mingjun both ended badly.

Many emperors even forced the prince to rebel.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty were relatively typical emperors.

Queen Wang Wenjun knew that her husband was not the kind of person who had a strong desire for power and control.

If he were that kind of person, he wouldn't want to enfeoff ministers.

But the conflict between the emperor and the prince may break out inadvertently.

Queen Wang Wenjun will try her best to protect the prince, but when the emperor is resolute, she can only choose to compromise.

Su Ming was his backup plan. Once something went wrong with Prince Su Shu, Su Ming could withstand it.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Now the prince Su Shu feels the crisis and is ready to entrust Su Ming out.

Queen Wang Wenjun will not allow this to happen.

A prince who is entrusted overseas will never inherit the throne, no matter how outstanding his performance is.

Queen Wang Wenjun sighed, shook her head and said, "The distance in Europe is too far, and the Queen Mother doesn't want to be separated from Ming'er so far away."

When Prince Su Shu heard this, he was not surprised at all.

He had listened to his father's teachings, and people in the country preferred the golden mean.

In a closed room, if someone proposes to build a window, many people will object.

But if you propose to lift the roof, most people will agree to repair the windows.

Prince Su Shu had known for a long time that it was impossible for his mother to let Su Ming leave the empire.

He just said this just to express his true thoughts.

"Mother, Su Ming has grown up now, and he should also develop his abilities.

I think Su Ming can be entrusted to Burma, Siam and other regions.

Train his abilities and make him a talent useful to the country."

The feudal states of the empire and the vassal states are completely two different things.

A feudal country is a county with autonomy. The leader of the country can formulate policies and implement his own policies within the feudal country.

As long as there is no serious conflict with the laws of the empire, under normal circumstances, the imperial court will not interfere with the management of the feudal country.

His power is comparable to that of a governor, and his autonomy is higher than that of a governor.

However, it was still under the management of the emperor, and the cabinet would also dispatch officials to assist the king in managing the feudal country.

The most critical point is that the army in the feudal country is usually managed by the Governor's Office.
