Chapter 486: Sacrifice to the Mausoleum of the Yellow Emperor
"Your Majesty, think twice!" the civil and military officials persuaded with all kinds of painstaking persuasions.
However, Li Guo waved his sleeves: "I have made up my mind, so you don't need to persuade me again! Besides, with the national teacher accompanying the guard, what are you afraid of? If the national teacher can't protect me, even if I stay in this Daming Palace, I may not be safe! That's it, retreat from the dynasty!"
Hundreds of officials in the court, you look at me, I look at you, and they all see the helplessness in each other's eyes.
However, since there is a national teacher accompanying him, he can rest assured, after all, Chen Jingle's strength is obvious to everyone.
……
Paying tribute to the Mausoleum of the Yellow Emperor is a national event, so naturally it cannot be easily compromised.
The problem is that now the world is full of flames, and it is not peaceful, and Li Guo wants to leave Chang'an City and go to Shengping County, which is actually quite risky.
It's not modern, it's an hour's train ride away.
In this year, Chang'an to Shengping County, more than 300 miles, there is no spacious avenue in later generations, or the situation of a large army advancing, there is no small half a month, there is no way to reach at all.
However, Chen Jingle finally chose to agree.
In fact, he understood Li Kuang's thoughts.
Originally, if there was no accident, Li Guo might be the last emperor of Li Tang, and after his death, the world would have entered the period of five dynasties and ten kingdoms.
However, Chen Jingle appeared and rewrote the original history - at least temporarily, rewriting it for Li Tang Jiangshan for a wave of life, as for how long it can last, it depends on how the situation goes.
At present, the situation is not a little better than before, Chang'an City is becoming more and more stable, and the people's hearts are returning. Military power began to be regained by the imperial court, and the territory of Han Jian and Li Maozhen was also recovered by the imperial court. With 60,000 troops in hand, it is enough to shock the northwest and dominate one side.
Therefore, Li Kuang also rekindled his hope and wanted to re-command the world through hard work.
Li Kuang himself still has some ability, although he was a puppet emperor in the past few years, but what he should learn and understand, he has not fallen behind, and the books that Chen Jingle recently asked him to read have not been missed.
It is precisely this serious energy that makes Chen Jingle quite optimistic about him, otherwise he would rather support someone to be the emperor again if he is a king like Liu Adou.
Since the decision to worship the Yellow Emperor's Mausoleum has been made, it is necessary to prepare in advance.
60,000 Shence troops, in addition to 30,000 stationed outside, there are 10,000 guards in the capital, and the remaining 20,000 are left to escort Li Kuang to Shengping County, accompanied by hundreds of civil and military officials, and the prince of the country to supervise the sacrificial wine.
Chen Jingle naturally went together.
With him, there is basically no need to worry about the safety of Tang Huang Li Kuang, but for the sake of the personal safety of others, he still sent the vanguard to clean up the road along the road.
What bandits and bandits, the sweep that should be swept up, the capture that should be captured. There are so many places where roads, mines, and canals need to be built, and there are not enough people everywhere.
After the news that the Holy Lord was going to sacrifice the Yellow Emperor's Mausoleum spread, there was a lot of discussion in Chang'an City.
"Eh, have you heard? Your Majesty wants to go to the Yellow Emperor's Mausoleum!"
"I heard from the old king next door and his cousin who was on an errand in the Shence Army that there was such a thing, but it is not clear when he set off. ”
"I heard that the National Teacher will accompany him?"
"It should be, such a major event as the Yellow Emperor's Mausoleum, how can there be no national teacher!"
“……”
While the people were curious, they were also quite looking forward to it. After all, Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor, as the first member of the Chinese people, still has a very high status in people's minds.
But just pay a little attention to it, as an after-dinner chatter. This kind of thing is too far away from their lives, and it is better to spend more time on earning money to live.
However, some time ago, the behavior of all the Daomen walking the streets and alleys to the mountains and going to the countryside to see medical treatment for free caused a great sensation among the people. In addition to the "National Hospital" to be built, the government announced that it will launch recruitment for school-age children and young people from all over the world, and interested applicants can sign up.
As long as you pass the screening, you can become an apprentice in the national hospital, teaching not only reading and literacy, but also teaching medical treatment and medicine.
Girls can also apply, and priority will be given to them!
Many families are looking forward to seeing if their children can be selected.
In these years, if you can become a doctor, at least you don't have to work hard all your life to cultivate the fields, and if you get the appreciation of the national teacher, then you will really reach the sky in one step.
"I heard that the national teacher recently suggested to His Majesty that he was going to recruit homeless and unemployed homeless people to repair the water conservancy, and what kind of work was used for relief? If it weren't for the old man, I would have wanted to go. ”
"Isn't it, it is said that since the national teacher came, the days in Chang'an City have been getting better and better day by day. I heard that other states are still at war, and life is much worse than ours. ”
"It's a pity that my brother, if the national teacher had come five years earlier, he wouldn't have starved to death......"
“……”
In fact, whoever is good to them and who is bad to them, the people have a scale in their hearts. The so-called people's desire and the general trend are this truth.
……
The last day Si Tiantai's officials chose was the ninth day of the next lunar month, which is the Chung Yeung Festival.
Li Guo agreed, and with an order, the army marched. The mighty team set off directly from the Xuanwu Gate.
As soon as he left Chang'an, Li Guo said: "The national teacher shares a car with me. ”
The prince said cautiously: "Your Majesty, this ...... Not in line!"
He was reminding Li that he was afraid that the courtiers would have opinions.
"What I say is the rule. ”
Li Jing snorted heavily, looked at Chen Jingle, and smiled: "The national teacher doesn't need to pay attention to the others, I want to see who dares to object." And I have something to discuss with the national teacher for advice. ”
"Yes. Chen Jingle naturally has no opinion.
Although Li Kuang's chariot is not luxurious, it is much more spacious than other people's, and there are thick cushions underneath. There are two palace maids beside him, and they are the only two.
After sitting down, Li Kuang personally poured tea for Chen Jingle: "National teacher, I already know about the monks and nuns of Buddhism, and I have done a good job!"
Being able to pour out so much money, food and property from the Buddhist temples in the world, even Li Kuang was a little unexpected, and he gritted his teeth even more at Buddhism.
Then he said, "Now that the treasury is becoming fuller and fuller, but the people of the world are still suffering from famine and hardship, how can the national teacher teach me?"
"Development. ”
Chen Jingle replied with two words, and when he saw that Li Jing was puzzled, he explained: "The so-called development is a process of progress and change of things from birth, and it is the continuous renewal of things.
For example, agricultural tools, from the ancient times to the Xuanyuan plow, hoe, and irrigation cart, this is a process of development.
The same principle can be applied to other fields, such as military weapons, iron smelting technology, and so on. The country needs to develop, and only by developing can it become strong, leave other feudal towns behind, and finally settle down and unify it!"
When it came to the unification of the world, Li Kuang left all his distracting thoughts behind him, and listened very seriously.
Chen Jingle sorted out his thoughts: "The reason why the people can't eat enough is naturally because there is not enough food to eat. Since there is not enough food to eat, what should we do? The solution is nothing more than to promote arable land, sow seeds, cultivate and reap. That's development!"
"But this alone is not enough, we should also consider how to increase the grain yield, for example, from 200 catties per mu to 1,000 catties per mu. At that time, Your Majesty thinks, will there still be people in the world who will starve?"
Li Guan nodded subconsciously, and then looked up in surprise: "Thousands of catties per mu? Isn't that an immortal method?!"
The two little palace maids behind them originally pricked up their ears cautiously, but they were also dumbfounded at this time.
In this world, who has ever heard of a family that produces 1,000 catties of grain per mu? I'm afraid that only immortals can do it, right?
There is no doubt that the national teacher is indeed an immortal!
Chen Jingle laughed, the big man who increased the grain yield in later generations was known as Shennong in the new century.
However, it also makes some people overfed and think about things all day long.
Chen Jingle smiled and said: "Your Majesty, it is possible to produce 1,000 catties per mu, but with Datang's current strength, it is more difficult to do, so it is better to increase the output to 3500 catties first." ”
Even doubling production would make the world less hungry refugees.
And he still has a big killing weapon that the history travelers must have prepared and didn't take out!
That is sweet potato, also called sweet potato.
Almost every historical traveler before the Ming Dynasty will sacrifice this big killing weapon, and use the name of auspicious and divine objects to fool those emperors and ministers.
There is no way, the yield of this thing is really amazing, and it does not pick the land, whether it is in front of the house or behind the house, or in the fertile and dry land, and the sloping field and paddy field can be cultivated.
Although sweet potatoes can't be eaten too much, the stomach will have pantothenic acid, but for many people who can't eat enough in this era, gastric pantothenic acid is nothing, as long as you can't eat dead people.
Chen Jingle remembered that this thing seemed to have not appeared in the Tang Dynasty, and it was only introduced to China from the Philippines in the Ming Dynasty.
You'll have to find a chance to make a trip.
Chen Jingle said: "There is a lot of knowledge in how to increase grain production, and we must invest in it as soon as possible, but we must not be in a hurry. Poor Dao hopes that His Majesty can pay more attention to the people's livelihood, be more aware of the people's feelings, and don't be the Emperor Jin Hui who doesn't eat minced meat. ”
Li Guo said solemnly: "I understand!"
Immediately afterwards, he asked Chen Jingle for many other questions.
In the end, he sighed with emotion: "The national teacher is a great talent, I can't reach it!"
Chen Jingle just shook his head and chuckled: "There is a precedence in hearing the Tao, and there is a specialization in the art industry, Your Majesty understands these truths now, and it is not too late." ”
Standing on the shoulders of a great civilization of 5,000 years and saying these words, he naturally wants to be ahead of this era.
Chen Jingle hesitated for a moment and said: "If one day, the minister is gone, Your Majesty must remember that you must strive to develop and strengthen the Li Tang Jiangshan, dominate the Central Plains, attack the nomadic tribes in the north, exterminate the Tubo tribes in the west, make the hundreds of tribes in South Vietnam submit, and reproduce the prosperity of all countries...... No regrets. ”
"National Teacher ......" Li was stunned and frowned slightly.
Chen Jingle stretched out his hand to interrupt, shook his head and said, "If you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what happens, no one can predict what will happen in the future." ”
"I understand!" Li Guan took a deep breath and nodded solemnly.
……
Seven days later, the large army finally reached Shengping County.
The journey was tiring along the way, and I almost tossed the bones of those old ministers.
Rest for two days to prepare for the sacrifice.
The sacrificial activities of the Yellow Emperor's Mausoleum in the Tang Dynasty basically followed the previous dynasty.
First of all, of course, is fasting and bathing.
Next, prepare the corresponding offerings. First, the Yellow Emperor is placed on the left side of the God, and in front of the Yellow Emperor, there are three animals and other sacrificial vessels.
In the early morning of the sacrifice day, the ceremonial officials will invite God to the altar and the Yellow Emperor. The emperor is on the altar. The emperor offered incense in front of God and the Yellow Emperor and invited the gods to come. And lay jade silk and enter the figurine.
The emperor and all the officials knelt down to read the blessings, and after reading the sacrificial texts, the emperor presented the knighthood to God and the Yellow Emperor.
And so on and so forth, and a series of other red tapes.
The memorial was written by Li Kuang himself and read out.
"Wei Wende three years, the age of Gengxu, the festival of Chongyang, with the fire incense to worship the emperor God, Xuanyuan ancestors, excellent Qingliu long hair, Deguan Siwen, to Yue Zhaosheng, Yongyan with life, I would like to make silk sacrifice Qi, sheng sheng products, style Chen Ming recommended, Yu God as the master, still enjoy.
Junsheng was born in ancient times, following the heavens, acting on behalf of the heavens, raising Qianli, Yilun Xiuxu, Jingjing rope, divine merit and holy virtue, and the law has been hanging to this day. Born with many blessings, do not forget and repay, look up to the Holy Spirit, and the law of eternity.
I am born in the afterlife, and I am destined to fall into the midst of decline. Today, in the chaotic autumn, fortunately with the help of the mandate of heaven, the crowd used force. The Dutch Emperor and the Queen of Heaven blessed the land, and then Pingtong, Hua, Qian, and Feng four states. Although the world has not been pacified, the first army has been formed, and the people's hearts are wanting, and the general trend is soupy. May my Shenzhou be clear and clear, and the Guan River will be thousands of miles long.
Today, we will lay down the tomb and tell the ancestors that the Holy Spirit is not ignorant, and its appreciation is still good!
On the bridge mountain, in front of the Yellow Emperor's mausoleum, Li Kuang's voice was clear, from top to bottom, and spread all over the ears present.
Everyone was solemn.
After the memorial was read, Li Zhao put away the sacrificial manuscript and handed it to the prince behind him.
The next moment, the heavens and the earth were surging.
In an instant, there were dark clouds, lightning and thunder, and behind the thick clouds, there seemed to be a great terror.
