Chapter 582: Successor
Throughout the history of Dahua, the second year of Tianxi was a dull year, and there was no good news in this year, and there was no beheading of the foreign king emperor at the downtown entrance of Jinling.
But this year was also the most important year, and later historians agreed that it was in the second year of Tianxi that the Hua Dynasty established its absolute leadership in the world.
In this year, the first rotary screw engine ship was officially launched, and the sailing speed tripled, and Chinese merchants accounted for more than half of the merchant ships traveling to and from the world's waters;
In this year, Javanese spices, Siberian furs, silk from the south of the Yangtze River, and porcelain from the Central Plains were known as the four most profitable gold mountains in the world, which were monopolized by the Chinese Dynasty;
In this year, the culture was prosperous, a hundred schools of thought contended, various theories competed for beauty, and celebrity books were printed into volumes, translated into various languages and widely circulated;
In this year, the swords and soldiers were put into storage, and the horses were released in Nanshan, and the soldiers who had been fighting for a long time were able to return to their hometowns and reunite with their families;
In this year, Hou Xuanyan, the emperor of the Chinese Dynasty, opened the country with extraordinary courage and allowed young people from other countries to study in the Chinese Dynasty and learn Han culture.
In the past, this was a privilege only available to Japan and Korea, and I don't know how many people yearn for the rich and prosperous Chinese Dynasty and the beautiful oriental architecture.
In the imperial garden, Hou Xuanyan sat in the pavilion in the middle of the lake, looking at the two princesses playing not far away.
The crown prince Hou Yingjun sat with his father, with a bit of envy in his eyes, and he wanted to play with his sister and sister at first glance.
As the crown prince of the East Palace, Hou Yingjun followed behind Hou Xuanyan very early to watch how his father handled the government.
Those days in Hou Qizeng's mansion in Suzhou became his freest and happiest time, Hou Xuanyan turned his head to see that his son's small forehead was wrinkled, and he touched his head with a smile, and said, "How old are you, you have wrinkles?" β
Hou Yingjun sighed and said in a milky voice: "Father, it would be nice if the son was also a princess." β
Hou Xuanyan has a big head for a while, but he can't let his son have this kind of thought, if a prince doesn't have masculinity, the court and the middle will not be messed up.
The old father Hou Xuanyan had this idea, and he was really on pins and needles, and immediately got up and went to the Military Affairs Pavilion.
Although the emperor has not been here for a long time, the errand scholars of the Military Affairs Pavilion are not very surprised, after all, this is the center where the emperor directly controls the entire world.
After Hou Xuan came in, he went straight to the point and said: "I have been thinking about it occasionally recently, the prince is young, born after the national disaster, and did not encounter the rebellion of Jiannu. When I was in charge of state affairs in the future, it was inevitable that there would be some shortcomings, so I decided to set up a juvenile class in the lecture hall to collect the children of soldiers who had made contributions in the war, so that the prince could also go in and study hard. That's how hard it is for him to start a business. β
When the officials present heard this, their ears pricked up, and this was a great opportunity.
Especially if there are children of the same age in the family, if they are sent to the prince, they are worthy of the name of accompanying the prince to study.
When the crown prince inherits the throne in the future, these people are both playmates and classmates, and their future career will not be smooth.
Even if your son is not of the right age, if there are suitable children in the clan, you can pass it on and use your own merits to protect their ears and noses.
Hou Xuan's next sentence completely shattered everyone's illusions.
"I thought about it, the prince has a good life, and he doesn't know the hardships of the people, if he is allowed to be with the children of the generals and generals, it will still be useless. That's good, just choose from the old soldiers of the Northern Expedition, hehe, those brothers who were injured after following me to fight against the Qing Dynasty and received a reward to return to their hometowns, and now they should be about the same age as my son. β
His Majesty the Emperor issued an order, and the newspaper was the first to publish it, and the officials of the yamen in various places also began to take stock of whether there were any veterans of the Northern Expedition in their jurisdictions.
At that time, the four battalions of the Northern Expeditionary Army, more than 200,000 people, and the disabled soldiers were not counted.
It doesn't matter if it's a statistic, there are more than 2,000 school-age children, all boys between the ages of four and six.
Hou Xuanyan looked at the top table of the household, patted the table and laughed: "Yes, it is worthy of Lao Tzu's soldiers, who can fight and have babies." β
Several members of the Dongnuan Pavilion couldn't help but wonder, and Ma Shiying asked, "Your Majesty, how to choose so many children?" β
Hou Xuanyan looked at him, just wanted to scold, but thinking that the elixir was still beside him, he said in a pale tone: "Whatever you pick, they are all old pawns under my command, as long as their parents have not been traitors after retiring and returning home, they will all receive the lecture hall." Escorted by the imperial court, they were transported to Jinling, and the people in the province became accustomed to becoming little devils at home. β
The 2,000 children instantly filled up the newly established juvenile class of the Jinling Lecture Hall, and the officials of the Lecture Hall discussed with the military department and simply set up a battalion in accordance with the rules of the army.
After Jiang Jianxun reported the idea, Hou Xuanyan was extremely satisfied, and put up a plaque and wrote: Youlin Camp.
is going to send his son to be a soldier, of course Hou Xuanyan has to talk to his mother, and after dealing with politics, Hou Xuanyan set up Kunning Palace and went to see Huang Ying'er excitedly.
"Young Lin Camp? Soldier? Huang Ying'er couldn't accept it for a while, but her whole family came out of the soldier's nest, and she didn't resist it too much.
Huang Yinger's father is Huang Degong, who fought step by step from Liaodong pawn to Yasukuni Gong; Her husband was the commander of the Northern Expeditionary Army, and he killed the emperor step by step; Her son is now going to the barracks......
On the contrary, it was Yang Fujin, who was also in the hall, and said worriedly: "The prince is young, so he will send it at this time, will it..."
Hou Xuanyan immediately interrupted: "Lao Tzu is a hero, his father threw away the pen and commanded thousands of soldiers when he got on the horse, and he must be a natural general." β
Huang Ying'er said happily: "Well, it makes sense. β
Yang Fujin saw that his father and mother were so happy, so there was no need for him to object.
The prince entered the martial arts hall, this is a big deal, and the next day's early dynasty Hou Xuanyan said about it, and the hall suddenly exploded.
Now that His Majesty's heirs are not prosperous, it is just such a lone seedling, if something happens, it will be repaid, and it will inevitably shake the country's foundation.
Hou Xuanyan was unmoved, let them object, and insisted that there was no need to discuss this matter.
The establishment of the Military Cabinet has brought the emperor's power to the peak, and since His Majesty has strongly agreed, the officials have no choice but to put forward various opinions to ensure the safety of the prince. and urged His Majesty to recruit concubines and spread the branches. Hou Xuanyan heard that his nose was not his nose, and his ears were not ears, so he was very uncomfortable.
Rao is very thick-skinned, and he is not willing to discuss his sex life in this temple.
Hou Xuanyan pursed his lips, and inadvertently glanced at Li Haoxian, the Duke of Qi who was there, and saw that the corners of his mouth seemed to be smiling...
"Ahem, I am gracious to the veterans of the Northern Expedition camp this time, and I will not recruit Qi dignitaries, but thinking of the merits of Qi Guogong, I specially gave his eldest son Li Siyong to enter the Youlin camp."
