Since these people want to come back, then come back, anyway, there will definitely be no such thing as the throne, and they may be able to live a stable life in Chang'an.

The tragedy of the Sixteen Kings is actually determined by the extremely selfish policy of the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty, as early as twenty years ago, the Tang Dynasty implemented a policy of restraint on all ethnic groups in the Western Regions, as long as the Hu people in the Western Regions did not enter the Tang Dynasty on a large scale, it would be good, but later the officials of the Tang Dynasty found that what the Tang Dynasty needs most now is the population, otherwise a large amount of newly occupied land will not be able to govern at all, and the Han people in the Tang Dynasty alone will not be able to fill this huge territory at all.

So some people proposed to domesticate and dilute them, as long as the densely populated people of the Western Regions were sent to Guanzhong, and then dispersed and divided into various state capitals, the final result was that these Hu people were a minority no matter where they were.

The Tang Dynasty was a strict clan society, and the single-handedly Hu people could only live in a regular manner no matter where they were, and this discovery made the officials of Lingnan and Lianghu very happy, and began to slowly accept those Hu people from distant places and give them household registration.

Slowly, the population of the Western Regions gradually became scarce, Qiuzi, Khotan, and many other city-states have gradually been covered by wind and sand, and the only better place is Gaochang, where the Beiting Protectorate is located, where a magnificent temple has appeared, so that the people there are no longer willing to leave the majestic Kunlun Snow Mountain.

If this continues, all that will be left in the Western Regions is the sixteen kings and their children and slaves......

Yushan Academy also encountered such an embarrassment, a blonde and blue-eyed Hu man, speaking proficiently in Guanzhong, took his household registration in Sanyuan County, and asked to participate in the academy's big examination, which made the people of the Ministry of Rites very embarrassed, because the imperial court had already issued a decree in the sixth year of Zhenguan: "Those who return to the Ministry of Hui are in Beijing." Each according to his own clothes, he must not follow the example of the Chinese. ”

The school's philosophy is that as long as you are a Datang person, there will be no class, that is, as long as you are a Datang person, whether you are a beggar or a prostitute. can apply for the Yushan Academy, but the academy has a strict prohibition: "The wisdom of Yushan belongs to the Tang Dynasty and must not be passed on!" ”

Therefore, Hu Ren has proved that he is a Tang person with a household registration, but his strange appearance is destined to be not a Han person, which makes the Ministry of Rites and the Academy very troubled, or Mr. Li Gang's last word: "This person holds a Tang household registration, that is a Tang person." The foundation of education lies in educating people, accepting the etiquette of the Han and Tang Dynasties, dressing well, and being educated by the saints, that is, the Tang people. ”

With this assertion, there have been quite a lot of bearded and blue-eyed Hu people in the academy in recent years, among them, the earliest Tu Dian has already joined the army in the Hanhai Governor's Mansion. There were also many Hu students in the household department who held official positions such as the chief bookkeeper, and developed to the end. Li Er's Qianniuwei also appeared in the figure of Hu Ren.

Li Er was extremely proud, in the fifteenth year of Zhenguan abandoned all the Hu and Han policies, in his opinion, the Tang Dynasty is the "sunshine zone" in the minds of people with lofty ideals in all countries of the world, and the outstanding talents of various countries risked their lives to run to the Tang Empire. Diplomatic envoys from all over the world, after seeing the high prosperity and civilization of the Tang Empire. In their hearts, their country is similar to the uncivilized "primeval forest", so they do not want to return to China and do everything possible to stay.

I don't worry that the Tang people will forget their ancestors after they go out; I don't have to worry about foreigners coming in and taking over the crowd. This alone shows that the Zhenguan Dynasty was highly confident, convinced that its country was the most civilized and powerful land in the world, and did not worry about foreign cultures drowning them.

Li Er's policy was extremely successful. Today's Tang Chang'an is the capital of all nations, and people of all kinds of hair can find their place in this great city.

The matter of the sixteen kings, the eldest grandson has no right to decide, and reported it to the emperor, but the emperor kicked the ball to Da Zongzheng, and when Yun Ye went to Zongzheng Temple to listen to the order, the news he got made the roots of his teeth cold.

"The sixteen kings belong to the fiefdom, rest with the country, and must not leave without permission!"

Yun Ye took this chapter and looked at Li Shentong's eldest son Li Xiu, who is now the great Zongzheng of Zongzheng Temple, and hesitated for a long time before saying to Li Xiu: "The younger generation shouldn't say much, but the sixteen kings have abandoned the fiefdom of the Western Regions, and when they go back at this time, their people have been scattered, how can they support their families?" What's more, there are quite a lot of old and weak people in the crowd, no matter whether their actions are in accordance with the rules or not, they are all our relatives, so there is no need to drive them all to death, right? Instead of driving them all back to the Western Regions, it is better to kill them all in Lanzhou, the younger generation thinks that this is easier, why do you have to do things absolutely? ”

Li Xiu looked at Yun Ye coldly and said: "You are also a clan, you understand the truth of the world, since they wanted to be self-reliant and want to expand their territory, as a clansman, we equipped him with weapons and manpower, and now they want to come back and enjoy their success as soon as they are defeated, but they don't know that every inch of the territory of the Tang Dynasty is obtained by bloody battles, and the Li family will not raise some fools who only know how to reach out for food, and if the royal family wants to be evergreen, they must prune and prune leaves anytime and anywhere." If my children and grandchildren are also overwhelmed in the future, the old man will not tolerate it, if you dare to intercede again, the family law will not be tolerant! ”

Yun Ye was not punished once or twice in Zongzheng Temple, thinking of the monsters there, it is better not to offend, but such a document is really unbearable, once the seal of the military department is stamped, the sixteen kings will be immediately sent back to the Western Regions by the army, and only the royal family exists in the deserted fiefdom, these guys who are not diligent and do not distinguish between grains and grains are estimated to be starved to death, and Yun Ye almost dare not think about such a miserable scene.

Holding the order to find the eldest grandson, the eldest grandson was lying on the soft couch, eating cherries, eating this thing in the winter, it can only be said that Concubine Yang's greenhouse has a new output.

The eldest grandson spit out a cherry pit, glanced at the yellow-skinned document in Yun Ye's hand, and asked casually, "Zongzheng Temple has already made a judgment?" ”

"The sixteen kings belong to the fiefdom, and they are not allowed to leave without permission!" Yun Ye repeated the contents of the document to the eldest grandson. "The harem has also turned the sky upside down, many concubines kneel in the Liangyi Hall and refuse to get up, what kind of system is this, there are always officials in the Liangyi Hall now, a group of concubines kneeling here is unsightly, just now ordered the eunuchs and maids to carry them all back, how to deal with the court's own laws, when can the concubines interfere in politics?"

The eldest grandson talked about him left and right, but he didn't say what to do, it seemed that she was disgusted with the sixteen kings to the core. Seeing that Yun Ye was silent and did not leave, the eldest grandson finally sighed and said: "You are a soft-hearted person, I want to see if your Yun family will prune and prune leaves at that time, it is not a good thing for a tree to be too leafy, you must always prune off some dead branches and leaves." Otherwise, the tree will grow crooked, or there will be no chance of any further progress.

The sixteen kings plus the entourage of more than 8,000 people, I can't go down this ruthlessness, but if you want to overturn the assertion of Zongzheng Temple, you must be the patriarch of the Majesty Xià to speak, I think so, you send the documents to the Jiucheng Palace, even if you give the sixteen kings another chance, as for whether it is successful or not, it depends on how Your Majesty decides. ”

Yun Ye laughed, indeed, this is the eldest grandson in his heart, although he seems to be extremely disciplined, but the gentleness and kindness that belong to women have never been broken.

Since it was the queen who ordered the documents to be sent to the Jiucheng Palace, in fact, even if the queen was already interceding for the sixteen kings, if it didn't work out, it would be the emperor who personally sent the documents to Longyou, and Zuo Wuwei personally executed them, but Yun Ye thought that the sixteen kings could probably return to Chang'an, although they were inevitably reprimanded by Li Er, no matter what, it was better than being sent to the Western Regions to starve to death.

After returning to the military department, Yun Ye sent away the paperwork, and it was an eight-hundred-mile expedited walk, and it should be in the hands of the emperor at night, when he sat alone in the lobby and thought about the whole thing, Yun Ye suddenly found that he had missed a person, this person was He Shao, who made a fortune in the Western Regions!

There are few people under the Sixteen Kings, how does this guy maintain large-scale fire oil mining and manufacturing? Li Yuanliang's wife is the Wei family, there is no reason for Wei Shuyu, who is the imperial history of the Eastern Pavilion, not to say a word, the situation in the entire Western Regions became confusing in front of Yun Ye in an instant, what kind of situation is there?

The merchant has money, there are people, and the prince has soldiers and horses, but he has to look at the face of the merchant? Unless the merchant can be strong enough to make the prince dare not offend, Yun Ye smiled bitterly, He Shao, this bastard, really dares to do it, he actually united with Han Zhe, Xi Tong forced away the sixteen kings, and he really thought that the Western Regions was their world?

Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate, Beiting Metropolitan Protectorate, plus Hanhai Metropolitan Protectorate, these border troops have also reached the time to move, as long as Xue Rengui is out of Qiuzi, Xitong can only retreat, how far can he run, Xue Rengui is not Yun Ye, he can be kind to his subordinates, Xue Rengui has always been exterminated when he sees bandits.

It was only at this time that Yun Ye understood that the merchant's move this time had such far-reaching significance, not only seeking his own interests in the court, but also planning to establish his own local power in the distant Western Regions. Who do they think they are? Who will allow the Tang Dynasty to show signs of splitting? Feng Ang is building his own kingdom in Taiwan, Li Er has to mix a few handfuls of sand fiercely, you group of businessmen, think about the officials in the court too simply, right?

Yun Ye thinks that it is right for businessmen to have power, but if they want to have their own territory that they can actually control, this is not good, one day when merchants become extremely powerful, this place in the Western Regions will become a source of chaos, which is not allowed, even if the actual operator is He Shao, in the far west, there is a city called Venice, this is a city-state composed of merchants, once extremely powerful, they can build a brilliant city on the water, Yun Ye has no doubt that the Tang Dynasty merchants who are countless times stronger than them, and will surely build a glorious city-state in the desert.

As Yun Ye's recital was finished, he seemed to see He Shao's heartbroken wail! It's okay that one can't hold everything in one's hands, and that can easily breed ambition. (To be continued......)
