After the news of Kaienke was released, the incident of scholars gathering and making trouble quickly subsided, and then Zhao Yu issued an edict to treat the scholars who took the examination as usual and properly resettled, and issued customs coupons to solve basic living problems. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 With the arrival of a large number of scholars, the city was also lively, they came from all over the occupied Jiangnan, and Qiongzhou had been here for several years, and they were anxious to learn about the situation in their hometown.

So the ubiquitous newspapers seized the topic and published interviews with scholars to attract attention, and the "Qiongtai Times" was not willing to be lonely and opened a column, and opened a section for these scholars to find relatives and friends in Qiong. The newspapers invited the scholars to introduce the situation in the inland and paid a lot of money for the manuscripts, and some of the scholars were even more energetic and broke the news one after another.

"Hehe, these scholars are also very gossipy!" Zhao Hao hurriedly held the newspaper and said with a smile.

"What interesting things have you seen in the official family again?" Su Lan, who was serving on the side, saw the little emperor smiling and leaned back and asked.

The newspaper said that the Tartars never washed their dishes when they ate, even though they occasionally washed them with broth, and when they had washed them, they poured the soup and meat back into the pot. If you want to wash tableware such as jars and spoons, you should also rinse them in the same way. They believe that wasting any food or drink, no matter how it is used, is a great crime; Therefore, they are not allowed to throw the bones to the dog until the bone marrow has been completely drained. They never do their own laundry, and they don't allow anyone else to do it, especially when it's thundering. I can't imagine how sloppy they can be to eat on a plate like that! Zhao Hao said with a smile, not to mention that in modern society, even at present, he has never seen anything like that.

"Official, this is not unusual, those Mongolians do not wash their hands before eating, regardless of their status, they wrap their hands around their legs or grab something casually to wipe their hands. Eating is also directly grasped by hand, so that both hands are covered with greasy, and those with higher status will have a handkerchief to wipe their hands. When eating meat, one of them cuts the meat into small pieces, and the other takes the meat with the tip of a knife and feeds it to everyone, some people give more, some people give less, and the amount depends on the status of the person. Su Lan frowned and said, but she didn't feel the slightest bit funny, but a little disgusted.

"How do you know, is it also from the newspapers?" Zhao Hao asked with a twisted face.

"The official family, the slave maid once stayed at the Pu thief's house in Quanzhou, and the Pu thief often feasted on the tartar at home, so I saw it!" Su Lan said, "Those Tartars are not only sloppy, but also addicted to alcohol, they think that they can only look heroic if they are drunk, even if they drink too much and vomit, they will still drink too much, and they will not hesitate to get sick for this." And the slaves and maids have to clean up for them......"

"Miss Su, I heard that Tartars eat dogs, wolves, foxes and horses, and they eat everything they can eat, is it true?" Wang De also asked curiously on the side.

"Well, they still eat people!" Su Lan nodded.

"Cannibalism?! Aren't they brutes? Wang De said in surprise.

"Tartars not only eat people, but even their own people!" Zhao Hao smiled.

"How did the officials know, could it be that there is also one in this newspaper?" Wang De turned to the little emperor again.

"Hehe, do you know that there is a military rule in the Tartar army?" Zhao Yu shook his head when he saw both of them, and he continued, "The Tartars are mostly cavalry, and they are known for their rapid mobility in battle, so it is impossible to carry a large number of baggage with the army, and they often only carry ten days of food with them, and other needs are solved by seizing them, which is also the reason why the Tartars do not rob property first, but capture livestock first. Whenever there was a shortage of food and hunger and thirst, the Tartars would drink the blood of horses raw and kill them for food. If the war is urgent and the city cannot be attacked for a long time, the method of drawing one out of ten will be adopted, and one person will be selected to kill everyone to share the food, which has solved the dilemma of lack of food! ”

"Wouldn't a tartar kill his companion and eat it, as if he were a beast!" Wang De said in surprise.

"Yes, this is how the Tartar has created a division of tigers and wolves, so that he can be invincible and invincible, and fight bravely, otherwise he will be defeated and die." Zhao Yu said.

"What the official said is not right, those Tartars are very greedy for money!" Su Lan saw the little emperor talking and talking, and said with a melancholy look on his face, "Those Tartars don't know what honesty and shame are, and they ask people to ask for money, and they have their own names. The first time he belonged to the staff said to visit the money, he had nothing to do in vain to say that he was sprinkling money, chasing the festival money on festivals, saying birthday money on his birthday, asking for regular money in charge of affairs, sending welcome money, chasing money for money, and talking about official money. Find more money to get it. In addition to Texas, the United States is said to be a good place. Supplementing the job is close to the good cave. I only know how to ask for money, but I don't know what it means to be loyal to the king and love the people. Su Lan said.

"Oh, there are so many sayings, shouldn't it be three feet high!" Zhao Hao smiled when he heard this.

"Your Majesty, how can the sky be three feet high?" Wang De looked confused, blinking and puzzled.

"Great official, the Tartars crossed the border and scraped the ground three feet, wasn't it three feet higher that day!" Su Lan explained with a chuckle.

"Hee-hee, I see!" Wang De said with a smile when he heard this.

"Is that more than that?" Su Lan continued, "Somehow, every summer, the Tartars want to drink milk, and as long as they have mare's milk, they drink a lot, and they rarely eat meat. Generally not rich people could not drink mare's milk, they also drank mountain milk, cow's milk, and even camel milk, or boiled millet in water, which was very thin, and could only drink soup. They each drank one or two bowls in the morning, and during the day they stopped eating. But in the evening they each ate a little meat and drank some broth, unless it was given to them or hunted birds and beasts. ”

"Are there poor people among the tartars?" Zhao Hao half-jokingly said that he knew that the Mongolian diet was particular, and its traditional food was divided into three types, the first was meat products, the second was dairy products, and the third was a drink made from milk. The diet is divided into two seasons, summer and winter. In summer, dairy products are the main food, and meat is eaten relatively little during this period. The main reason is that you need to eat meat in winter to increase fat and resist cold, and after a few months of accumulation, you need to use dairy products for digestion and absorption in summer, which is a means of health preservation.

"Yes, there are poor people among the Tartars, and there are bought Mongolian servants in the Pu Thief's house!" Su Lan nodded solemnly.

"And such a thing?" Zhao Yu is a little strange, the Mongols as the ruling class, the people in their clan are the basis for maintaining the rule, as far as he knows, every major festival of the Yuan Dynasty will be rewarded by the Great Khan of the Yuan Dynasty, and every year from the Central Plains and Jiangnan will also mobilize a large number of materials to subsidize them, it is said that they will not reach the well-off, and they will not sell their children and daughters to live. The Jurchens, who also invaded the Central Plains, held a golden rice bowl after entering the Central Plains, planted hardcore crops, and left the reputation of the children of the Eight Banners to future generations!

"In fact, the Tartars were most afraid of war, and I heard that they had their own saddle horses, weapons, and food, and that the poor had to sell their wives and children in order to prepare them. In disaster years, a large number of livestock were killed, and many herders were displaced, often migrating in large numbers to survive in the forest, Monan and the Central Plains. As a result, the Mongol children were sold as slaves of the Hui, Han, and Nanren, and were even trafficked to Persia. Su Lan said eloquently.

"Yes, it's easy to share hardships, but it's hard to be rich and rich!" Zhao Hao sighed.

Think about how similar things are in the world, after the primitive communism in the early days of entrepreneurship, there will be differentiation, and Meng Yuan will also be unable to escape the laws of history. Not to mention several expeditions to the west, from the time when Kublai Khan succeeded to the throne, the military struggle for the right to rule between the Chagatai and Ögedai Khanates, the rebel nobles within the Mongol and Yuan dynasties, and the Yuan court for the right to rule, the main battlefield spread to a wide range, covering almost the old land of Mongolia, and it has not ended until today.

The direct disaster caused by the war to the Mongols was that the conscription was unprecedentedly heavy, and the economic foundation suffered unprecedented damage, as the Mongol military households who had been stationed in the interior were even more so, they needed to go on continuous expeditions, and it was difficult to escape under the harsh military law, but they needed to pawn their own land and property to go to quell the rebellion, what kind of life was generally one. Later, the Jurchen Jin State was restored to sign the army, and a large number of Han people from the former Jin State were recruited into the army, which was also a helpless move by Kublai Khan.

"The official, the little one heard that some people were spreading that the puppet queen of the enemy chief had died, and he was heartbroken, and he drank heavily every day and ignored government affairs." Wang De was very happy at the beginning when he saw the little emperor, how could he sigh as he spoke, and hurriedly said something that he thought would make His Majesty happy.

"By the way, the slave maid also heard about it." Su Lan also hurriedly answered.

"Alas, Empress Chabi is a generation of virtuous queens, if it weren't for her protection, the abolished queen mother and the abolished emperor don't know how much suffering they would have to suffer!" Instead of being happy, Zhao Hao sighed again.

"Official ......" Wang De saw that the little emperor had a sad look on his face, and then he thought of how the affairs bureau could not report such a big matter, His Majesty obviously knew it for a long time, but it was still very surprising to call him 'virtuous'.

"Hehe, I call him virtuous on the matter, not for other reasons, and it is not too much to be virtuous for what he does......" Seeing the surprised looks of the two, Zhao Hao smiled and explained.

When Kublai Khan was still a county king, Möngke Khan and his troops attacked the Song Dynasty, and the following year Möngke Khan died in Diaoyu Mountain, Sichuan. At this time, Kublai Khan was attacking Ezhou for a long time. Strategists Hao Jing and Yao Shu persuaded Kublai Khan to withdraw his troops, but Kublai Khan was eager to seek merit and refused to listen to the persuasion. At this time, the Song sent an additional army to support Ezhou, and Ali Buge, who stayed behind in the Khan court of Helin, was intensively planning to seize the throne of the Khan, and privately recruited and mobilized the Khan's army.

If Ali Buge succeeds, Kublai Khan will be attacked by the enemy on his back, unable to advance or retreat, and the situation is extremely dangerous. At this critical juncture, although Chabi is a woman, she dares to come forward. On the one hand, she sternly reprimanded Ali Buge for mobilizing the army without permission; On the other hand, he decisively sent someone to deliver a message to Kublai Khan, who was far away in the south of the Yangtze River. After Kublai Khan saw the letter, he realized the seriousness of the situation, made up his mind to withdraw his troops, and ascended to the throne of Khan before Ali Buge.

Because Kublai Khan reused the Han people in the early days, Chabi was also influenced by the advanced culture of the Central Plains. As a minority woman, she is more open-minded, not only able to advise Kublai Khan, but also has a bit of a woman's unique clever mind. Once, Kublai Khan, out of his way, allowed several cowardly officials to enclose fertile fields as pastures in the suburbs of the capital. Chabi did not directly admonish Kublai Khan, but rebuked Liu Bingzhong in front of Kublai Khan, saying: "You Han people are very smart, the emperor obeys your words, you obviously know that it is wrong to enclose land and herd horses, why don't you give advice to the emperor?" Do you want the emperor to repeal the edict that no enclosures are allowed to graze horses?" Kublai Khan knew that Chabi was turning a corner and admonishing him, and finally revoked the edict allowing the enclosure.

After pacifying the Southern Song Dynasty, Kublai Khan specially displayed the treasures looted from the Southern Song Dynasty in the Dadu Imperial Palace, showing off the results of the battle, and allowed the concubines to choose one of their beloved. The concubines were overjoyed and competed to choose first, but they were not only not selected, but they were depressed and worried. Kublai Khan asked her that it was a great joy to pacify Jiangnan and dominate the world, why was she not happy? Chabi said, the ancestors of the Song Dynasty accumulated these treasures and passed them on to his descendants, but the descendants could not keep the ancestral industry and lost the country, and these treasures fell into our hands, how can I bear to use these treasures! She is worried about whether future generations can hold the hard-won country and whether they will repeat the mistakes of the fall of the Southern Song Dynasty. As a feudal queen, it is really rare to have such far-sighted worries and insights.

Generally speaking, palace life was extravagant, and the Yuan Dynasty was no exception. However, at the beginning of the founding of the country, Kublai Khan knew the hardships of entrepreneurship and was still able to prohibit extravagance and advocate frugality. The bow and arrow are the main combat weapons of the Mongolian people, and the consumption is extremely high. Chabi led the palace people to collect it, re-cook it, and use it as a raw material to weave into cloth, which is finer and softer than silk. In addition, she saw that the drum making of the Xuanhui Academy discarded the front leg skin of the sheep, and felt that it was a pity, so she ordered the palace people to pick it up and process it into a colorful carpet, saving a lot of money for the country.

Repairing the old and turning waste into treasure, Chabi, as the queen of the "supreme among women", is quite difficult and valuable to be so diligent and thrifty. And he is kind-hearted and compassionate. The Empress Dowager of the Southern Song Dynasty was a native of Jiangnan, she was very old and weak, and she was captured to the capital and was ill for a long time. Chabi interceded for her in front of Kublai Khan, hoping that Kublai Khan would send her back to the south, but Kublai Khan refused to allow it. Chabi asked again and again. Kublai Khan rebuked her for being short-sighted, not far-sighted, and resolutely refusal, obviously because the two were from different angles, but they were indeed very humane.

After Zhao Yu finished speaking, he saw that the two of them were still at a loss, he smiled bitterly and shook his head, it is okay to smear and make fun of the enemy to boost his morale, but as a ruler, he must be clear that history and reality are closely related, and history is not a collection of dead people and things, but a reflection of living people and things. If we do not face up to the history of the rise and fall of a country and the rise and fall of civilizations, we will not be able to face the enemy squarely, distinguish between truth and falsehood, and defeat the enemy......
