Guo Peng painted a magnificent picture for future children and the Wei Empire.

Cao Lan was shocked by the situation depicted by Guo Peng.

The eight hundred years of feudal division of the Zhou royal family has been a major change that has never been seen in history. If Guo Peng's plan was successfully implemented, what would it look like in the future?

No one knows.

Anyway, Cao Lan will definitely not be able to see such a future.

"That way..."

Guo Peng held Cao Lan's hand.

"In that case, at least within a hundred to two hundred years, the children will not have any conflict. They do not have the basis to create conflicts. Even if there is a conflict, it will be a matter of one or two hundred years later, and we will be gone long ago.

No matter how much we worry about the things at that time, what can we do? As long as their ruling cores are far enough and Luoyang cannot reach their ruling cores within three months, then they will not be able to engage in actual conflicts.

Even if they grow and grow stronger and have conflicts, they will not be able to truly kill each other. Terrain, transportation, productivity, population, military size, etc., which will effectively limit the possibility of conflict between them."

Guo Peng smiled helplessly: "Alan, the world is very big, far from being covered by China's Shenzhou. The world is so big that it is tens of thousands of miles away. Now we know that there is a great Qin State as huge as ours, thousands of miles away.

Their territory is that big, so do they also have a larger territory besides them? If our children and their descendants can continue to forge ahead.

Continue to strive for more territory and population, to the west, north, east, and south, hundreds of years later, in addition to China, there is also China.”

Cao Lan was so surprised that she couldn't speak at all.

After a while, Cao Lanzai looked at her husband carefully and said slowly: "Penglang, why do you always think of things that others can't think of? No one has ever thought of such things, and even the previous emperor has never thought of them."

"I don't know either, but it's a miracle that I can be an emperor, right?"

Guo Peng smiled and said, "The predecessors have not had any efforts and pioneering. Without the feudal of King Wu, our descendants could not occupy the entire Central Plains. Hebei and Jiangnan. Without the unified weights and measures of Qin Shihuang's chariot and books and texts, there would be no basis for today's great unification.

Without the predecessors' enfeoffment, we don't know what the enfeoffment is. Without the predecessors' enfeoffment, we don't know what the county is. Everything we use now, isn't it because our predecessors' pioneering and enterprising? What qualifications do we have to blame our predecessors for not working hard enough?"

Guo Peng hugged Cao Lan tightly: "What I do now is what countless predecessors have done, they are all pioneering, and there is no distinction between high and low. I just hope that what I do can inspire future generations. They will continue to do things that I can't do."

Cao Lan also hugged Guo Peng tightly.

"I don't know that much, but I know that Penglang is really considering the children and Wei State, which is enough."

"As a father, it's enough, but as an emperor, it's not enough. I can do more, and I have to do more."

Guo Peng took a deep breath, slowly exhaled, and said, "There won't be much time left for me. I must do everything I should do before I run out of energy. I can't leave too many things to A Jin. If I can't do some things, he will not be able to do them.

Before I die, I must do all these things, whether it is the imperial examination, school, paper, or the matter of enfeoffment of countries, I must do it, and I must not leave these things to Ajin for doing."

"Penglang, is the matter of paper and books really dangerous?"

Cao Lan asked in a low voice.

"Well, it's very dangerous, not ordinary danger, but don't worry, even if you lose, Wei State will still be Wei State, and I am still the emperor, and no one can threaten us."

Guo Peng hugged Cao Lan even tighter: "The army is in hand, no one dares to fight to the death with me."

Guo Peng absolutely does not want to see the scene where children hate each other and fight openly and secretly happen to him, and he can't do it after death.

Blood gangs fight each other, and hate each other.

Although for the Tian family, such a situation is inevitable.

That is why the emperor must establish an heir as soon as possible, protect the heirs, educate the heirs, let everyone give up and maintain the stability of the country.

But this is just a way to treat the symptoms but not the root cause. The essence of competition among princes has not changed. If you want to change this essence, you need to start from other places.

We must find other ways out for the princes besides being confined in the capital.

It is a way out that will prevent the emperor and his brothers from threatening each other.

So he has been thinking about how to solve this problem.

Seeing the children growing up, the second son Guo Jun is already seventeen years old, and he is like a lively, active and outgoing young man.

He is quick-thinking, very talented, good at mathematics and meticulous thinking, and is quite sensitive to numbers. Guo Peng can even debate with him on mathematical issues.

Children trained by the elite education of the Guo family are the worst and cannot be abandoned.

If you put it outside, you can manage a county no matter how hard you are, and you can manage tens of thousands of creatures.

He really couldn't bear to see such an excellent child who died of depression because he had only one throne and could not show his talents in his life.

And he can only be imprisoned in the Luoyang Imperial City like a canary, using food, drink, fun, and indulging in mountains and rivers to hide his pain. If the ambitions in his heart are leaked, he will be liquidated by the emperor's brother.

This is something Guo Peng doesn't want to see anyway.

But Guo Peng is a qualified emperor and will never shake the status of Prince Guo Jin for the sake of the talents of Guo Jun and other sons. That is inappropriate.

Guo Jin is his heir and his crown prince, and this will never change.

He spent a lot of effort to determine Guo Jin's status and spent a lot of effort to create a situation suitable for Guo Jin to rule, and his future was entrusted to Guo Jin.

So he could not tolerate anyone provoking Guo Jin's status no matter what.

Therefore, the future of Guo Jun and other children is destined to be dark and there is no hope.

He is a compatriot with the emperor and is both a prince and has the right to inherit the throne. He and his younger brother Guo Qiong must be a thorn in Guo Jin's heart after becoming the emperor.

How would Guo Jin view this matter?

Can their brothers be as happy and respectful as the brothers of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang?

Can Guo Jin and Guo Jun trust each other and rely on each other for the rest of their lives like Yongzheng and Thirteen Kings?

There are too many unpredictable things.

Guo Peng cannot pin his hopes on survivor bias.

I can still protect them when I am alive, but what if I die?

What unexpected happens?

Guo Peng can probably guess it.

Even if Guo Jin will not abuse his brothers for his own reasons, he will never give them the opportunity to display their talents.

Power, like love, has a strong exclusivity.

Guo Yang is a waste, and Guo Peng doesn't care about him at all, so he was named a free king and directly let him work at home, just eat, drink and have fun, and he can't make any waves.

If you find a reason in the future, it will be ruined and will not cause any trouble.

But Guo Jin's brothers are destined to not be as useless as Guo Yang, and Guo is very confident about this.

Future disputes and brotherly slaughtering each other seem inevitable.

The prospects for the children after their death are not good.

This won't work.

His love for his children cannot tolerate such a situation.

He has to do something.

After thinking about it, Guo Peng drew inspiration from the limitations of the empire and the feudal system of the Zhou royal family, and found an opportunity to solve the problem.

The extreme wall of the empire is a concept.

It is about the ruling limit of a centralized empire that is within 100 days of reaching the government or military departing from the capital.

After a 100-day journey, the empire's government orders and troops set out from the capital, they walked for 100 days at the normal walking speed. The last place they arrived was the limit of the empire's rule.

If beyond this limit of rule, the lag of government orders and the lag of force interference will cause the empire's rule here to collapse and cannot be maintained.

This is the extreme wall of the empire.

It is the limit of the county system under a stable centralized system, and the limit of the super monarchical autocratic system where imperial power goes to the countryside.

The place that transcends the extreme wall is something that the empire cannot successfully occupy no matter how hard it is. The detention is the best ending.

It is not a good thing that the empire's territory is too large.

With the current transportation conditions, it is difficult to change within hundreds of years. Before the traffic revolution occurs, the imperial wall will be realized in its own hands.

Therefore, it is the best choice for the children to enfeoff their country outside the extreme walls of the empire, whether it is Guo Jin or other children.

They can develop their talents without ending up in depression and fail to achieve mutual threats.

It is difficult for the countries that were enfeoffed and the empire of the Wei Kingdom, the tribe.

Even if they threaten each other, it would not have happened within hundreds of years.

Unless the Industrial Revolution really arrives early, trains appear, and the steel age arrives, then it is possible that the Wei Empire can break the original extreme wall and go to the stage of the new world.

The industrial revolution cannot be brought about by Guo alone. It is necessary to have a good time, place, and people and others. It requires many basic conditions to be born together.

It requires sufficient basic knowledge, sufficient ideological liberation, and the collective efforts of a society.

Mr. Guo believes that he is not a system flow overlord, and he just knows the truth about many things but not the reason.

Knowing the existence of gunpowder will take a long time to experiment to create the most basic thunder.

Only after observing the steel filling method, I learned how to make a mature piece of steel, what steps and how long does it take to make a piece of mature steel.

It was known that papermaking and printing also required a lot of manpower and material resources to pile up and experiment. From the initial failure to the later mass production, it took several years and countless money to build a secret factory.
