Chapter 2 The Tang Family Mansion
The Tang Family Mansion is adjacent to the west of Bianjing Women's College, a residential area with pavilions and pavilions, where most of the female professors of the college and the female senior accountants and accounting officials in the inner government live.
At this time, Lu Ning was in a study room surrounded by green willows in the Tang Mansion, leaning on the couch, slowly flipping through today's recital.
This piece of music was specially brought out by him.
To say that today, there are two major events, one is the music of Annan, the last remnants of the Ding tribe were defeated, and Danjia, one of the five queens, cut off his head and surrendered.
From the time I went to Annan and began to lay out in the north of Annan, to now, ten years, finally, Annan is settled.
In fact, it is not difficult to occupy Annan for a short time by relying on arrogant soldiers, but how to make it stable for a long time, so that its people can accept that the Qi people are not foreign rulers, and they are also a member of the Qi people.
In fact, when the former Tang Annan Protectorate was there, all kinds of factions were foreign rulers, and the barbarians were ruled slaves, and this kind of rule was difficult to maintain for a long time.
And the ten years since I went to Annam, especially after returning from Dongying, have mainly been the north, northwest and Annam.
In the north, with a policy of coercion, the great migration of various tribes was carried out, which disrupted the inherent fetters of the steppe tribes, and made the demarcated grazing areas become a state of mixed living among various tribes, and the tribal leaders were all appointed by the Central Plains.
Under such high pressure, turbulence and rebellion are inevitable, followed by the suppression of rebellion.
Including the bloody suppression of the army rushing to the grassland from the year before last to last year.
In this way, the population of the powerful tribes has declined sharply, and more and more tribes have received the ritual education of the Central Plains, and even many of the people of the Central Plains have migrated to Huangzhuang all over the grassland and lived a life of grazing.
Intermarriage and integration have become more and more the norm between the Huangzhuang people and the tribesmen, the rich families of the tribe, many families hope to marry their daughters to the Huangzhuang households, and their lives are more stable and better, and their own families also have a place to rely on.
In the northwest, it was mainly to support the Khotanese and the Western Uighurs against the invasion of the Qarakhanids.
Lu Ning didn't want Daqi to fall into a war with the countries of Central Asia and West Asia as soon as possible, it would be an endless situation of victory and defeat, and Daqi would need a few years to recuperate and prepare.
In the past few years, the main focus is still in the northern grasslands and white mountains and black waters, the north is stable, and Daqi has the extra energy to invest its strength in the northwest.
As for Annan, on the contrary, he followed the trend.
I watched as the envoy of Annam, the first regime that the Vietnamese boasted of for thousands of years after being ruled by the Central Plains and finally restored, the last monarch of the "Wu Dynasty", Wu Changchi, was killed after being captured and captured by the Ding Commander.
Subsequently, Daqi raised the banner of revenge for his subordinates and recovering the lost territory.
The Red Tiger Army, the elite of 5,000 men specially trained for mountain and jungle warfare, defeated the Ding Commander with little effort.
Three years ago, the Red Tiger Army had recovered Jiaozhou, and since then Annan has been renamed "Lingnan South Province", and Jiaozhou has been promoted to Hanoi Province as the seat of governance of South Lingnan Province.
However, it took a lot of effort for the Ding tribe to lead the south to exterminate its remnants and absorb the rest of the envoys.
Among them, Li Yanniang has a lot of credit, and she was also awarded the "Lord of Hanoi" for her merits, and she was also a supervisor of the Imperial History for the Lingnan South Provincial Provincial Department, which is the first female official in Daqi, but because of the particularity of Lingnan South Province, this move did not cause any criticism.
Now, the remnants of the Ding Collar have finally disappeared, and even before they were destroyed, they were killed by their queen and beheaded.
Lu Ning looked at Song Shu at that time, and could only shake his head, the barbarian women of Annan, compared with the women of the Central Plains, are really two worlds of species.
In addition to the Annan incident yesterday, another important note came from Xichuan, but it was said that Duan Sushun, the king of Dali, sent an envoy to Sichuan for help.
It was said that the Yang family intended to rebel, and was secretly supported by Zhao Kuangyin, the king of Tubo, Duan Sushun sent an envoy into Sichuan to meet the Sichuan Shu Road medicine patrol and Sichuan Shu to ask Yang Ye for help.
After Zhao Kuangyin lost Qingtang City, he fled southward, and heard that in the past few years, he has managed some weather.
Lu Ning is not in a hurry, because he has already explored the situation of Tubo, and now the Tubo land is extremely bitter and cold, and the huge Tubo Empire is impossible to reproduce at all, it seems that the history books use the large astronomical and geographical environment to analyze the rise and fall of the Tubo Kingdom, and the rise of the Tubo Kingdom has a lot to do with the highest temperature climate in history at that time. Otherwise, the climate of the Tibetan Plateau will be difficult to support the massive population and expand.
Zhao Kuangyin naturally didn't understand this, he thought that there was a great empire on the Tubo Plateau that was on a par with the Tang Dynasty, and it was because of this that he pinned his hopes on this bitter cold place.
And he operated in Tubo, Lu Ning was happy to see it, he was simply the living ** and pioneer of the people of the Central Plains, and he made the first march for Daqi to finally enter Tubo, and carried out the subtle transformation of the ideological foundation.
It's just that the soldiers and civilians who follow him suffered.
However, Rao's activities are still very annoying.
Now that he is eyeing Dali, he can't be allowed to get involved, otherwise, the southwest frontier will be troubled from now on.
Thinking about it, Lu Ning smiled and said, "In a few days, I will go to the southwest." ”
I was trying to go out for a walk, and I also stopped by to see the little queen Lu Guiping, Ping'er brought her daughter into Beijing to see her once the year before last, but I haven't seen her for more than two years.
In the study, standing aside to serve tea and snacks is a beautiful person in white clothes and white pants with bright red high heels, shawl hair, a bit similar to the beauty of the Republic of China, but with gestures, it has the charm of the current era.
The beauty is Tang Yuniang, who is now the head of Bianjing Women's College, and is commonly known as the "dean".
Of course, the ideological emancipation here is completely different from that of later generations, but to break the concept that women are virtuous without talent and encourage women to work.
In fact, in recent years, Bianjing Women's College has also cultivated many senior professionals in accounting and verification.
And Tang Yuniang's dress, it is precisely because she likes to look at it that she dares to wear it boldly, and it has more or less affected the dressing style of the professors and students of the women's college.
Lu Ning also felt a little helpless about this, but high heels and the like are ten thousand times better than foot binding, with the values of the real feminists in later generations, they will think that what they are doing now is still objectifying women and not respecting them enough, but from the current era, it seems that they have done a little too much.
But in the big picture, the more the better, to liberate women's productive forces so that they can create more social value.
But then again, what the women's college can influence now is only a small group of people in the circle of aristocratic women in Bianjing, and if you don't say Bianjing, you are all heretics in Bianjing.
If it weren't for the royal family behind the women's college, I am afraid that it would have been criticized by the old masters a long time ago.
And now, although the old masters who are not used to seeing it dare not speak out, if they die and their heirs do not have such prestige as themselves, the academy will be banned in minutes, and if the dynasty is changed, I am afraid that this women's academy will be described as a place similar to the wine pond and meat forest of the faint king.
As for himself, he can only hope that he will live longer, make some changes exist longer, and survive batches of diehards, so that the possibility of being counterattacked in later generations will be smaller.
In fact, Mo said that the women's college is the Royal Zhengde Academy, as the world, not to mention the first, but also the top three existing universities, the criticism is not small, because the teaching of Zhengde Academy has further improved the proportion of disciplines such as Ming Wu and Ming Law, and the intelligence and elegance of traditional literati chanting poetry have been somewhat affected, and no matter how good the poems are, in the imperial examination, they are not as high as the scores of the top students of Zhengde College.
"Daddy is going out of Beijing? Or go to the Southwest? Tang Yuniang was stunned, then secretly glanced at Lu Ning's face, and said: "There is a student who is very smart and a native of Dali in the southwest. ”
The title "Daddy" was inherited by Tang Yuniang when she first met Lu Ning from Guizhou.
And now, the meaning of the word "Daddy" does not only indicate that Tang Yuniang is a slave and Lu Ning is the master, but in front of outsiders, Tang Yuniang is the unicorn girl of the "General Academy", because Tang Yuniang has several close friends who have seen Lu Ning.
Of course, now because there are many embassies outside, the real general courtyard has changed people, and it is served by Han Derang, which belongs to Honglu Temple.
Lu Ning added a product to himself, and if he incarnated, he would be the Shaoqing of Honglu Temple, the straight bachelor of Jialong Tuge, and the master of the third grade.
Listening to Tang Yuniang's words, Lu Ning frowned, "Don't turn the school into a place to hide filth and dirt, high-ranking officials and nobles, if you want to use this as a place to hunt for beauty, ten times the sin, and then you won't be able to get out of the relationship." ”
"Yes, yes." Tang Yuniang's face changed color in fright, and she hurriedly said: "Er naturally understands, Daddy didn't talk to Er once." ”
There was a sound of footsteps outside, and Lu Ning smiled when she heard it, "It's Lian'er who is out of school." ”
Sure enough, Lian'er's cheerful voice came from outside, "It's Daddy here!" ”
The door curtain of the study was lifted, and a young girl with long hair fluttering came in, a snow-white princess dress, and the milky white shoes under the skirt could be faintly seen, which was very beautiful and cute.
Bianjing Women's College, advocating simple hair buns and simple clothing, is a professional who does not want to learn, and wastes a lot of time on unnecessary dressing.
Lian'er is a top student at the women's college and graduated this summer.
As in the general of later generations, the current Daqi schools also choose the middle of the year as the beginning and end of the school year, Lu Ning did not think about this problem before, and now sitting in this position, he understands a little bit why the world routinely uses summer as the beginning of the school year, even if the largest township test in the Central Plains before is also autumn.
Now I understand that at the end of the year, all kinds of things are too busy, and the parents of the children and the like have to deal with the children's going to school, etc., it will be really miserable, and after the year, it should be the time when most people have passed the New Year and want to have a good rest.
Moreover, summer graduation exams and so on are not as cold as winter, and nowadays, cold and warmth have too much impact on people's willingness to move.
There are also students who help their families with farming, and so on.
In short, it is true that it makes more sense to change the school year in the summer.
Looking at Lian'er, Lu Ning coughed, needless to say, a few years ago, Lian'er did not escape from her clutches, and sleeping with Tang Yuniang and Lian'er's mother and daughter was extremely exciting and comfortable.
However, this kind of excellent enjoyment is hard to come by, and it is really helpless.
At first, they could enjoy it once in half a year, but later, it was extended to more than half a year, and now, it will be almost a year, otherwise, the two of them will not be able to bear it.
Thinking wildly, Lu Ning handed the song from Sichuan and Shu to Tang Yuniang, and said: "Look at it, what am I going to do in the southwest, you people from Sichuan and Shu, I heard that there is trade with Dali, can I use it?" ”
Tang Yuniang hurriedly took the song with both hands, looked at it roughly, and asked cautiously: "In what capacity does Daddy want to go to Dali?" ”
Lu Ning smiled, "As a businessman." ”
The four wealthy families of Dali, the Duan family, the Yang family, the Gao family, and the Dong family.
Now that the Dong family is weak, the new family of the Gao family is mainly competing with the Duan family and the Yang family.
And the Gao family took advantage of the struggle between Duan and Yang, and after a few decades, he reached the pinnacle of power in one fell swoop, and even forced Duan Jiachan to give up the throne.
Later generations have a very popular martial arts, one of the protagonists is the prince of Dali, and also mentioned his father's good courtier, good brother Hou Ye Gao Shengtai, but in fact, it is this Gao Shengtai who forced Duan to abdicate and proclaimed himself emperor, but Duan's prestige in the Dali tribes is extremely high, Gao Shengtai felt this, and before his death, his descendants were still located in Duan's, and since then, the hereditary minister of the Gao family has controlled the government, and Duan has maintained the legitimacy of the ruling power for the emperor, so that Dali has formed a special balance, and the national Zuo has lasted for nearly two hundred years.
When he went to Dali, he wanted to solve the territorial problem in one go, and incorporate the territory belonging to China into the territory of Daqi in the future.
Of course, today's Dali, the south includes many later generations of Vietnam, Burma, Laos territory, but the world territory, there are too many uncertainties, in this world, the entire Dali country into the Qi soil, slowly digested, the future Chinese territory, naturally different.
It's just that now, if you don't rely on the local wealthy clans, and directly copy the local official system of Daqi, I'm afraid that it will be difficult to break the blood flow for a long time, not to mention, to use the sword soldiers in Dali, it is also a very laborious thing to hurt the people and money, and the forbidden army corps with strong combat effectiveness can't be used, and special troops such as the Red Tiger Army must be used, but now the Red Tiger Army has just pacified South Lingnan Road, if it is transferred away immediately, I am afraid that it will cause a backlash from the barbarians of South Lingnan Road.
Supporting a wealthy family to temporarily rule Dali as a magistrate is the cheapest and safest way, and then slowly the hereditary official becomes a rogue official, and changes are made little by little.
In fact, from the encroachment of the Yuan State of Dali, and then the appointment of the Duan family as a hereditary magistrate to manage the Dali land, to the coexistence of Mujiayong Town in Yunnan and Liuguan in the Ming Dynasty, and then to the main Liuguan in the Qing Dynasty, it is also such a continuation.
But I will keep this process as short as possible.
Supporting a wealthy family is nothing more than one of Duan, Yang, Gao, and Dong, and I have to take a good look at which one is more suitable to support, after all, this choice may affect future generations for thousands of years.
Of course, if you go yourself, you might have a better option.
But in any case, it should be better to disguise yourself as a businessman who can access these wealthy families, but not an official.
And the Tang family in Sichuan and Shu heard that there are many people who operate commodity trade between Sichuan and Dali, after all, the profits are very rich.
"Okay, help Daddy figure it out." Tang Yuniang pursed her lips and smiled again, "I wish Daddy another country and the four seas." ”
Lu Ning smiled silently.
"Daddy, I'll go with you!" Although Lian'er doesn't understand anything else, it seems that Daddy is going to his hometown in Southwest Sichuan and Shu, although the memory there is really not very good, but now I really want to see it.
Lu Ning smiled: "Okay! ”
"Daddy is going to get down to business." Tang Yuniang immediately glared at Lian'er.
Lian'er grimaced, "I'm laughing!" ”
Lu Ning bowed slightly, naturally knowing that the little girl had a whim, to be honest, this is not to play, so she can't really lead her. 1603418514
