Chapter 110 Regional Ethnic Autonomy
Since this is the case, Tianyu will continue to rest assured that he is nonsense. Tianyu has said before that he is not very in favor of sacrificing a woman's marriage to achieve some kind of political goal. What's more, at the moment, my Datang Empire is strong, and if we want to talk about bullying, it is only our Datang that bullies others. And Tianyu also believes that if you want not to be bullied by others, the best way is to take the initiative to bully others. But there are several levels of bullying others, for example, the simplest and most direct is to send troops to recruit them, in that case, it can also keep them peaceful for more than ten years, but it only makes them temporarily succumb, but the seeds of hatred and disobedience are still planted in their hearts. Take the Turkic barbarians, for example, who live a nomadic life on horseback all day long, have no fixed place to live, have no home, and eat some heavy food, which is naturally inferior to our green food, and even less cost-effective than our cotton and silk satin. If we want to conquer them completely, we will not be able to fight them alone. Even if they were to be defeated, what would they do? took the indemnity, signed an armistice agreement, and then collected troops and returned to China, and the squad returned to Korea? In the end, we just left them like that, and after a few years, when they thought they were strong again, they began to harass us again. Then we sent troops to fight again, and after the fight, we took the money and flashed people, and once again left them alone...... If this continues, we will have endless battles for the rest of our lives, and our children and grandchildren, the children and grandchildren of our descendants, will all be used to fight wars, and I don't know how many generations of single-handed families will be embarrassed. Of course, if you can kill them all in one go, that would be the best. However, this is not an easy task for me to visualize, after all, the Turkic barbarian is tall, rugged and fierce, and has obvious dick silk characteristics like unevolved beasts. If we take our Datang soldiers and them one-on-one, I think the chance of winning is less than fifty percent. So even if we really wipe them out completely, it will definitely consume a lot of GDP, oh, that is, what we call national strength, and fighting a war itself is a comprehensive national strength that we have fought for. However, if we want to restore these national strengths, it is far from enough to rely on those war reparations, not to mention that a large number of corpses will be scattered all over the field, rivers of blood will flow, and lives will be destroyed. After all, if you eat well in prosperous times, you can't eat enough in troubled times, and peace and development are the eternal themes. Of course, at present, we are also considered to be peaceful and prosperous, and Datang is so powerful, it can be said that there are both great opportunities and severe challenges, and those barbarian bandit countries are our challenges. As I said earlier, there are several levels of dealing with them, and fighting a war is only the simplest and most straightforward. And if you want to say that this is a higher level, in fact, being close to each other can be regarded as one of the means from a certain point of view. Since our emperor is benevolent and benevolent, and it is not good to refuse the request of the state, it is okay to agree to their request, and choose a woman who is interested in the national poverty alleviation and education policy to recognize a righteous daughter, and then marry in the past, and promote the words and rhythms, folk customs, etiquette and culture, clothing, food, housing and lifestyle of my Tang Dynasty to their foreign peoples. Let them slowly accept and fall in love with this culture of our Datang, so that it can be regarded as the general realm of assimilating them. Of course, to do this, it is far from enough to rely on a princess to marry the past, even if you marry a large number of professionals, you can still do it. And if you want to reach that higher level, it is better to directly declare free trade, free marriage, and even free movement with them. In this way, maybe it won't be many years before they will take off their original clothes and change to Tang costumes, oh, it should be said that Hanfu, eat the same white flour and rice grains as us, and the husband and son also acquiesce to the etiquette teaching of the Tang Dynasty, in short, they will completely give up their original life and live the same life as we are now, and even directly deviate from their own country, migrate to our Datang to live, and then completely become our Datang people. In this case, it can be regarded as a complete assimilation of them from the grassroots level, let me ask, if a country loses the hearts of the people, what is the difference between it and its existence in name only? ”
"If you lose the support of the people, it will naturally not defeat yourself. But, the virtuous nephew, even if they were assimilated in this way, it was not completely, completely...... In short, they still have their own army and strength. Lord Liu has been thinking deeply about what Li Tianyu said, and after he thought about it, he also found a flaw, so he couldn't help but ask, but he couldn't find the right words for a while, so he had to say this.
"Then we have to say the highest level of assimilation. Indeed, it is far from enough to rely on these semi-soft policies alone, although this can also make their people's hearts submit to our Datang, but if you want to achieve the best effect of not only secretly gathering the hearts of the people, but also openly accommodating the land and political power, it is natural not to take some political tough measures. Li Tianyu only cared about what he said cheerfully, and didn't think about the following at all, he just said whatever words he caught. Fortunately, the word "" hadn't come out yet, so he reacted in time and immediately changed his words.
"Then dare to ask the virtuous nephew, what kind of means should be taken?" But at this time, our Lord Liu was completely fascinated by what he heard, and Father Li and Mother Li were no better, and their minds were full of the words that Li Tianyu had just said. Only our Chen Youliang and Cui Hao Xiaozhengtai were thinking hard as if they were half-listening to heavenly books.
"Policy of Regional Ethnic Autonomy!" Li Tianyu seemed to be a little tired of speaking, so he couldn't help but pick up a glass of wine on the table and drank it all, and then blurted out these eight words.
"The policy of regional ethnic autonomy? This is the first time the old man has heard of this. Dare to ask the virtuous nephew, what is this policy of regional ethnic autonomy? ”
"The so-called policy of regional ethnic autonomy is basically the same as that of the vassal state, just like my Datang is now the emperor, and you surrounding barbarian countries are all subjects of our Datang, and they are all under the control of our Datang. If anyone bullies you, it is equivalent to bullying our Datang. And these countries of yours belong to the territory of our Datang, and you must also recognize the central rule of our Datang and not violate the national law of our Datang. As for the army, of course, it must be taken into the possession of my Datang, if you want the army, then I will be sent by the Tang Dynasty to garrison the army, if you don't need it, it will save trouble. Then each of your small countries will set up their own small courts on the basis of their original territories, oh, or yamen, and you can set up yamen and some small rituals and laws for yourself according to your actual situation, and finally you will also govern your own people. In short, in a word, politically, you are ruled by our Datang, and in life, you can take care of yourself. In Tibet, it is called the Tibet Autonomous Region; The Turks are called Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region; Dongying is separated from us by the Pacific Ocean, which is estimated to be a bit difficult, but it is okay to be a municipality; Oh, anyway, there should also be a stick country of Koryo this year, right? ”
"Stick Country Goryeo? Could it be that the nephew is talking about the high sentence (this word is pronounced the same as "hook") Li? After Lord Liu said this, he looked at Li Tianyu in even more amazement, but he didn't expect that this virtuous nephew was so young that he had even heard of the Goguryeo Kingdom.
"Ah, yes, it's the dog Goryeo. My Datang and them are really a strip of water, as for them, if they have time, they will directly take it over to our Datang, and they will also have the autonomy of this ethnic region. Li Tianyu was completely forgotten, and said sadly and heroically.
What the virtuous nephew said really made the old man unbelievable and amazed. Let the old man think about it for a while. Liu Yunlong said that he was already in deep thought.
"Ahaha, Tianyu is just talking nonsense, and Uncle Liu doesn't care more than that." After Li Tianyu saw the complicated eyes of his parents at the moment, he realized that he had sold himself deeply with these words. Yaxingda, why can't you really control this mouth. At present, he is just a little fart of Shengdou, although he didn't eat the life of this gutter oil, but he doesn't have to Li Shimin's heart. As long as his Meng Yao is not taken by his old man to marry Tubo, the rest of the people don't care about Tubo, Turkic, Dongying, stick, whatever you like, just make trouble, anyway, Lao Tzu didn't plan to go abroad, it's about Lao Tzu's.
"Brother God, it would be a pity if you didn't become an official in the future." Although our little Zhengtai doesn't know much about the diplomatic strategies that Li Tianyu said, judging from the reactions of Lord Liu and Master Li who were present, Brother Tian's words are still very profound. can make his uncle and Lord Liu, who have been officials for decades, so impressive, it seems that if Brother Tian doesn't become an official, it will be a big loss.
"yes, Tianyu, I think so too." Chen Youliang also echoed.
"Hey! You two don't talk nonsense, you can eat indiscriminately. A person like me, who is half-mature in mind, ah, half-baked, who only knows what he says, who talks about the river, and talks on paper, how dare he brazenly support himself in front of a great man like Uncle Liu who has really made a lot of contributions to my Datang and solved a lot of plans? Li Tianyu did not forget to plagiarize Uncle Liu on the side as he spoke, for fear of arousing the whims of this older generation of politicians. Fortunately, Uncle Liu didn't seem to hear it, and still muttered there and considered himself.
But Li Tianyu only cared about Uncle Liu's thoughts, but completely ignored the gaze of his father on the other side. How did he know that after Li Jiacheng heard his words, he cared more about him in his heart. After all, he is also an old fox who has been in the officialdom for many years, and he knows that this officialdom is deep, although he seems to be an official on the surface, he is extremely beautiful, glorious, and smells in the township, but in fact he is walking on thin ice, maybe if he is not careful, he will be in prison, and even worse, he will be ruined. His old friend, Lord Liu, is an example, and his entire net worth and life are just between a smile and a rage on the saint. Since ancient times, it has also been the case, once you eat the royal meal, you must be ready to work for the royal family at any time, which is really a few happy and a few sad. Therefore, he never thought of letting this Bao'er enter the officialdom, although it was not a problem to get him an official position with his own ability. What's more, with his previous character, it is impossible for him to rise to the top in the officialdom, and there must be some old foxes like himself in the officialdom. But now Bao'er in front of him is embarrassed, just for his performance today, if he hadn't gone to the officialdom to break through, even he felt sorry for him. Hey, it's a pity that it's my own son, if I change someone else, I will definitely catch such a talent. Thinking of this, our father Li didn't forget to glance at Liu Yunlong.
"Come, Bao'er, don't just talk and forget to eat. Take a bite of this Taihu Lake whitebait meat and try it. Mother Li said with relief.
"Oh, thank you, Mom! Come on, Dad, you can have a chicken nugget to try, too. Uncle Liu, Tianyu toasts you! You are always for my Tang Dynasty, you really have every opportunity every day, working day and night, which makes my generation admire, and today you must get drunk with your uncle. Hey, Youliang, why are you still stunned, and you, Xiaohao, don't eat, why don't you hurry up and give Uncle Liu a glass with me. ”
"Oh, a cup of junior Youliang to Lord Liu! Youliang does it first for respect! ”
"Xiao Hao also respects Lord Liu!"
That's it, that's how it should be, although Lao Tzu estimates that the two of you may not be able to drink this Uncle Liu together, but it's always right for everyone to pour him old man's wine together. Banana, the taste of this wine is really good, it should be the best taste that Lao Tzu has ever drunk so far, it is really worthy of the wine sent by Uncle Liu, the governor of Liangjiang, and the courtesy is even more important.
"Oh, hahahaha, okay, okay, the old man will have a drunk with you young people today."
"Uncle Liu's fame is world-famous, heroic, swallowing mountains and rivers, heroic and heroic, a husband and a pass, oh, ten thousand people are inappropriate, standing up to the sky and the earth, he is really a rare character in my Tang Dynasty, a rare uncle in Tianyu." Seeing this, Li Tianyu hurriedly walked up to the pole, and after saying that, he gave Chen Youliang a look.
"Uncle Liu, you are old-fashioned, proud, outstanding, peerless, unprecedented. For my Datang, I am even more bloody, do my best, and worship and obey you! Chen Youliang also changed his words and no longer called Liu Yunlong "Lord Liu", but followed Li Tianyu to call "Uncle Liu". I saw that after he got up and finished speaking, he bowed to our Lord Liu with the wine glass he was up, and then drank the wine in one fell swoop. It's just that the goosebumps on the side fell to the ground when he heard this remark, and even Li Tianyu couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed after hearing it, making trouble, Youliang, this kid can definitely fight with Lao Tzu.
"Okay, okay, hahahaha...... The old man's two virtuous nephews can speak. After hearing what the two of them said, our Uncle Liu was even more interested, and drank the wine that had just been filled. To say that there are many people who have slapped their sycophants before, but they just laughed it off, and now that they have met two such interesting nephews, they are also very happy with their sycophants.
Seeing this, Mother Li, who was on the side, couldn't help but chuckle and chuckled, and Li Jiacheng had already laughed. If you want to say that there are not a few people who pat their brother Liu, they are not a few, but most of them are afraid that he will hear it and shoot it from the side. This Bao'er and Chen Gongzi are good, but they seem to be afraid that this Brother Liu will not hear that he is patting him on the back, but this Brother Liu enjoys it like this.
"Virtuous nephew, the old man will ask you one last question." Our Uncle Liu looked at Li Tianyu with a smile and said.
"Uncle Liu is polite, let alone the last question, even a hundred questions, Tianyu will do his best to answer."
"Hahaha, I don't know how my nephew thinks of my family?"
"Ah, this, if my sister is very good, not only is she beautiful and has a very gentle temperament, but she is also generous and decent, and she is quite talented, even Tianyu has to admire it. But then again, if my sister can have a father like her uncle, then it is not surprising that she is so outstanding. "It's noisy, didn't he already ask this question last time? Why is he asking about this again now, is it because his old man is not very satisfied with my answer last time?
"In that case, if my family becomes your wife, I don't know what the virtuous nephew will do?"
"This, this, don't hide it from Uncle Liu, Tianyu hasn't thought about this yet?" Li Tianyu couldn't help but be scolded by Xiao Lei after hearing Uncle Liu's words, saying that this Uncle Liu is too direct, although I also prefer to be direct, but I am also half a shy person. I didn't see this, even our little friends were choked with fright.
"What if the virtuous nephew thinks about it now?"
"This, Lord Yanagi ......"
"Eh, man, you don't need to interject. Now that I'm talking to my nephew, I'd like to hear what he thinks. ”
"This, Uncle Liu, Tianyu really can't think about it for a while. That, Tianyu would like to ask your uncle about a question about your private life. ”
"Oh? Problems with private life? I don't know what questions the virtuous nephew wants to ask the old man? ”
"Oh, to put it simply, I just want to ask Uncle Liu, how many wives do you have?"
"Hahahaha...... Virtuous nephew, you are really interesting, okay, in addition to my mother-in-law, there is also a three-room concubine room in the old man's main room. I don't know what the virtuous nephew is trying to say? ”
"No, it's nothing, it's just a simple question to uncle." Yaxingda, it's fine, as long as you're not a big supporter and implementer of monogamy.
"Then please continue to talk about my family's wishes and your opinions."
"Okay, uncle, Tianyu's view today is still the same as last time. Since ancient times, parents have been in charge of this major marriage matter. So Tianyu listens to his parents. Li Tianyu said righteously with a sanctimonious look, if it weren't for the fact that everyone present knew him a little bit and knew very well that he was a person with great ideas and opinions, they would have really been deceived and deceived by the appearance in front of him.
"Oh, is it? Do you agree, Lao Li? Obviously, our Uncle Liu didn't believe Li Tianyu's words very much, but since Li Tianyu said it, he had no choice but to ask.
"Here, the old man has to ask his wife's opinion." Father Li didn't expect that he would also be asked by this, so he had to look at the lady on the side in embarrassment.
Mother Li saw that all the signs were directed at herself, but she felt that it was not good for a while, she did not dare to make arbitrary decisions about the power of life and death of such a lifelong event, especially the Liu family, which also had a relationship with her Cui family and the Li family. To say that the daughter of the Liu family likes it herself, but now this Bao'er seems to have several confidants. In addition to the daughter of the Han family of the scholarly Han family, listening to the meaning of this Bao'er, it seems that there is a young lady who precedes the Han family and the marriage of this Bao'er is a certainty, and Bao'er's child does not mean to let these two young ladies be big and small, I think that young lady should also be extraordinary. It's rare that Mr. Han agreed to Bao'er's idea and didn't care about it, but now this Lord Liu can bear to let his daughter come to the Li Mansion and follow such a nameless and pointless? After thinking of this, our mother Li didn't know how to answer for a while, and looked at Li Tianyu in embarrassment.
"This, Lord Liu, master, since this matter is Bao'er's lifelong event, and the concubine is not such an uncivilized person, so the concubine thinks it's better to listen to Bao'er's own opinion first!"
