Chapter 214: Baghdad Demon Wind (2)
"Going to school?"
"Go to school!"
The same words, the tone of the words spoken by the prince and the emperor are completely different. Hao Ren had already imitated the Great Song system in the Yuan State and set the "Compulsory Education Law" of the Yuan State as the foundation of the Yuan State. The emperor's grandson replied that Ma Ba Ra was at a loss, and he just asked his uncle Hao Ren how to arrange so many Mongols who had nothing to do.
Whatever Hao Ren said would not surprise him more than 'going to school'. The Mongol Great Khan's family had to go to school, and every child born to the queen had more than one teacher, and he knew very well what it was all about.
"Hao Ren, why do you want to let the poor go to school?" Answer the incomprehensible question.
"If they don't go to school, how can they learn those crafts."
"It takes a lot of money."
"Look at how to organize the school. What is taught in school is completely different from that of the prince. Hao Ren said nonsense without changing his face, the education system of the Yuan Kingdom worked hard to learn the Great Song Dynasty, and the curriculum of all schools was the same.
With a puzzled face, he asked puzzledly: "Where are there so many schools for these tens of millions of people?" ”
Hao Ren didn't answer immediately, and the question made him suddenly feel happy. There were 700,000 Han people in the Yuan Dynasty, among whom there were thousands of people who could be dragged out to be teachers, and thousands of people who could be tutors. The population of the Great Song Dynasty is more than 80 million, and the number of teachers is not enough. Therefore, the formal teachers are mainly responsible for the lectures, and the tutors are responsible for helping students review the teacher's curriculum and complete homework. In this process, the tutor gradually improves himself and gradually becomes a full-time teacher.
Mongolia is a large country with a population of 30 or 40 million, and the right teacher is afraid that it is not as good as the Yuan country with a population of 2 million. The implementation of such a system in Mongolia is really not suitable. Hao Ren, who thought about this joint clearly, replied without changing his face: "It is mainly to teach various crafts, and there are many people who understand these." ”
“…… Well. Quite right. The emperor replied that Ma Ba Ra felt that this was reasonable, and he did not object.
At this time, it was getting late, so he invited Hao Ren to dinner. Both of them went from the afternoon to the evening, and at this time they were both hungry. Hao Ren didn't eat too much, he was running around all the way, just feeling tired.
He gave Hao Ren a glass of wine, and then said, "Hao Ren, don't leave today." Stay with me. ”
Looking at the look of the emperor and grandson who had been talking all night, Hao Ren immediately refused, "I'm very sleepy, I just want to go back to the post station to sleep." ”
"I have a bathhouse here, which is much better than a post station." Answer: Ma Bara didn't want Hao Ren to go.
Hao Ren was attracted by the bathhouse, and after thinking about it, he still agreed to come down.
After dinner here, Hao Ren was ready to take a bath. There was a servant in front of him to lead the way, Hao Ren didn't take a step, but he couldn't help frowning. Seeing that Hao Ren was unhappy, he stretched out his hand and waved, and immediately a guard reached out and grabbed the servant's neck and threw him aside. Then the guard drew his whip and slashed it at the servant.
Listening to the servant's screams, Hao Ren felt unbearable. He frowned not because the servant had done anything wrong, but because there was an aura from the servant. Before Hao Ren married Bao Xiqiang, he was not sensitive to this taste. This smell is not the smell of not bathing, but the smell of the flesh. After marrying Bao Xiweak, Hao Ren fell in love with taking a bath, and he became more and more unable to stand the smell.
But Hao Ren didn't need to explain so much, he said: "Forget it. ”
The guard whipped the servant a few more times before stopping. He said, "Hao Ren, let's go first." Let the guards clean up the mess. ”
Hao Ren hadn't seen such a fierce thing for many years, his subordinates were all people who followed him westward for thousands of miles, and if they dared to do this in the team, they would be run away by the people in the team or killed themselves. The bloody facts made Hao Ren understand that there could be such blatant bullying within the group. The heavier this bullying is, the more likely it is to collapse in the face of great external difficulties.
At this time, the servant raised his head and looked at the face, and Hao Ren saw that the servant was not a Han or a Mongol. Probably someone from the Cult of the True God. At this time, Hao Ren also felt relieved, Han and Mongolian rarely have a great taste. Most of the people of the Cross Sect and the True God Cult have a heavy body odor. Hao Ren, of course, did not know that in the 21st century genetic surveillance, the so-called Mongols and Han Chinese are genetically identical. The so-called steppe tribes and the Han people are the same ancestor. But those in the Crucidian and True God regions are not.
"Let's go, take a shower." Hao Ren said to the answer.
As the grandson of the emperor, he was given a large mansion. Naturally, there is a bathroom, and after Hao Ren enters, there will be servants to serve him. Take a bath and rub ashes. Later, when the woman came to serve, she saw that Hao Ren was lying on the soft bed and had fallen asleep, so she withdrew.
Hao Ren slept until dawn, and went to take a hot bath, and immediately felt refreshed. After breakfast, he didn't wake up yet. Hao Ren stood in the courtyard, thinking about what he had said yesterday. The Mongol troops attacking the northern part of Tianzhu suffered serious defeats and losses, and the cavalry of the northern states of Tianzhu exerted great power to outflank the Mongol army from behind. Defeated two Mongol armies. The Mongol court was shocked, but did not dare to say anything. Who would have thought that the Mongol cavalry would be defeated by the cavalry of other countries.
Thinking of this, Hao Ren felt a little sweaty in his palms. There is a small fountain in the courtyard of the Dama Bara, which is a small stream of water flowing from a nozzle at the top of a stone pillar and pouring into a stone bowl at the bottom of the stone pillar. After washing his hands in the stone bowl, Hao Ren felt refreshed. What he cared about most was not the defeat of the Mongol cavalry, he had been in Kiev for so long, Hao Ren knew that when the Mongol army was marching westward, it had also failed on the Polish side. Marshal Boyan was also defeated, and the nearly 10,000 cavalry to which he belonged was almost wiped out.
What Hao Ren was most concerned about was that when he asked about the power of the firearms in the Mongol army, he avoided talking about it. If the firearms didn't work, Hao Ren would have to be careful when he was at war with the Lust States to the west.
After thinking for a while, Hao Ren was about to go back to the living room to sit for a while. Suddenly, I heard a big mess in the inner hall, and it didn't take long for an attendant to rush out and run in front of Hao Ren, and said in a panic: "Prince, please go back to the post station first." ”
Hao Ren felt that something was very wrong, and hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?" ”
"The prince is sick." The squire said.
Hao Ren didn't say much, and immediately called his guards to leave together. When he left, he was quite worried in his heart, what kind of illness was the emperor and grandson, and he had to let Hao Ren leave first.
When I walked to a temple on the side of the road, I saw the Mongol soldiers standing at the door, collecting money. A child was about to sneak in, but was dragged by the Mongol soldiers. The Mongolian soldiers raised their feet and kicked the child out of the way, scolding and threatening the child that if he dared to sneak in without paying the money, he would not be as polite as he is now.
The children were crying, and those True God Cultists couldn't help but come forward to theorize. The Mongol soldier cursed a few times, drew his whip and tried to disperse the crowd in front of him. Hao Ren frowned and looked at the things in front of him, and he was greatly disapproving in his heart. Then he saw the man behind the Mongol soldier suddenly draw a knife, pounce on it, and stab the Mongol soldier in the back.
The Mongols screamed, apparently badly wounded. Hao Ren's first reaction was not too angry, he was ready to leave this land of right and wrong. Next, Hao Ren saw some True God Cultists suddenly jump out of the crowd, and they drew their weapons that they had prepared, some of them killed the Mongol soldiers who were surrounded by people, and some began to slash those who were not True God Cultists.
Screams were immediately heard from the streets. Hao Ren didn't dare to stay in this place for a long time, he shouted to the guards, "Let's go to the post station, and then urge the horse forward." ”
Hao Ren thought that this was just a sudden outbreak, but he didn't expect the situation on the street to be chaotic in an instant. A True God cultist who was trimming the face and washing the hair of the Mongolian people directly cut the neck of the Mongolian customer with a knife, and the blood spurted out. There was a rope seller who suddenly wrapped the rope around the neck of a Mongolian customer, and someone next to him jumped up and grabbed the other end of the rope and began to strangle the customer.
Fortunately, the True God Cultists were killing people on the side of the road, and they didn't have time to rush to the middle of the road. Hao Ren and the others urged their mounts to gallop along the middle of the wide avenue. Along the way, I saw the appearance of the rampant True God cultists using all the guys they could use at their disposal to kill people. While crossing a bridge, Hao Ren saw a wounded Mongol who was pretending to be dead lift up from the corpse of his companion and call for help to Hao Ren on the road.
As soon as Hao Ren reined in the reins, and before the horses could completely stop, he saw an old lady of the True God Cult running out of the side, and she raised a wooden stick and hit the wounded Mongolian on the back of the head. The Mongol cried out in pain, and the old lady beat him with a stick. If the assailant had been a young man, Hao Ren would have drawn his gun and shot him immediately. Faced with the hideous face of an old lady, Hao Ren's mind was chaotic for the first time, not killing intent.
At this moment, some True God cultists rushed out from the side. With Mongolian scimitars in their hands, they slashed the wounded Mongol's neck with one sword, and then rushed towards Hao Ren. Hao Ren's guards hurriedly drew their guns and shot, and at the same time shouted, "Lord Wang, let's leave quickly." Hurry up. ”
Hao Ren saw that he couldn't save anyone, so he gritted his teeth and urged the horses to leave. Fortunately, the guards' revolvers were all imported from the Great Song Dynasty, although they were expensive but very easy to use, and the enemies in close proximity were all hit and injured. Hao Ren and their horses stirred, leaving behind the enemy who was chasing them in an instant.
When I arrived near the post station, I saw that there was already a loud killing sound inside. Those dressed in Mongolian costumes carried weapons and slaughtered those dressed in True God Cult clothes, some of whom turned out to be Hao Ren's guards. It should be that the post station was attacked, and these guards had weapons, and immediately launched a counterattack, and then killed the rebellious True God cultists.
Reining in the horses, Hao Ren watched as the Mongolian men chopped melons and vegetables and cleaned up those True God cultists. Seeing Hao Ren's clothes, even the Mongolians who didn't know Hao Ren naturally bypassed. Hao Ren didn't bother everyone either, so it was good to clearly distinguish between friend and foe, and it was easy to misunderstand when he moved.
Not long after, I saw a man in a Mongolian robe running to Hao Ren's side. Hao Ren's guards didn't pay much attention, but Hao Ren frowned. The guy was in the limelight, and when he got closer, a smell wafted into Hao Ren's nostrils. Hao Ren couldn't help but clench the revolver. The guy raised his head, revealing the face of a True God Cultist, and as he raised his knife, Hao Ren also raised his revolver. The gunshot rang out, and the guy was shot in the head.
The guards were shocked, they didn't expect Hao Ren, who needed their protection, to become their protector. Hao Ren said with a straight face: "Let's go, let's go to the post station first." ”
There were many dead people on the ground inside the inn, and they were all dressed in whatever clothes. Someone was nervously controlling the situation, Hao Ren looked at the faces of those guys, and barely put his mind at ease, at least the guys with weapons didn't look like anything else. Back in the courtyard where Hao Ren lived, the guards in the courtyard listened to Hao Ren's voice and opened the door for them in surprise. Before the guards could tell what had happened, there was a neighing sound outside.
Soon, the Mongolian army rushed in, and when the leader saw Hao Ren, he hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, "May I ask if it is Lord Hao Ren?" ”
"Yes."
"We have come to welcome the prince to the Golden Horde."
The riots began in the morning, and it was only in the afternoon that the Mongol troops initially occupied the streets. Hao Ren stayed in the Golden Horde, watching those strangers running around, anxious, but he couldn't do anything. In Baghdad, he was just a guest.
Fortunately, the officials on the Golden Horde still knew what to do, and brought food to Hao Ren when they were hungry. The food was very unpalatable to Hao Ren's appetite, and he didn't dare to question it. As soon as he ate a few bites, an official came running and asked, "Is it Lord Hao Ren?" ”
"What?"
"The Great Khan invites the prince over."
Hao Ren took a few more bites of food and followed the official. When he arrived in front of Kublai Khan, he felt very hungry. The feeling of being hungry and not wanting to eat made Hao Ren very uncomfortable, and he even wanted to ask Kublai Khan for a glass of water. Then Hao Ren listened to Kublai Khan's stern tone and asked, "Hao Ren, did you have dinner with Ta Ma Ba Ra yesterday?" ”
"Yes."
"What did you all eat?" Kublai Khan continued to ask.
"This ......" Hao Ren can't remember what he ate yesterday, yesterday was mainly a conversation, and there were too many things that Hao Ren remembered more than food. In the end, he could only say: "Great Khan, the minister talked to the prince about a lot of things yesterday, and the minister can't remember what he ate. ”
"After eating with you, Arama Ba Ra was poisoned!" Kublai Khan said angrily.
Hao Ren was shocked when he heard this, this is a very serious accusation, in a sense, it is accusing Hao Ren of poisoning. Hao Ren's mind spun rapidly, and all kinds of thoughts came to him, and under the fierce collision of many thoughts, Hao Ren suddenly thought of one thing. It was Kublai Khan who arranged for Hao Ren to go to meet Tara Ma Ba Ra, and it was Tara Ma Bara who invited Hao Ren to dinner. Even if it was poisoned, it should be a response to poison Hao Ren. How could it be Hao Ren's turn to run thousands of miles away and poison his nephew who had never met a few times. Even if it was poisoned, Hao Ren had no reason to put himself in it.
Then Hao Ren's train of thought finally returned to normal, and he asked, "The Great Khan thinks it is the poison of his subordinates?" ”
"Humph! You tell me? Kublai Khan asked angrily.
After being a monarch for so long, Hao Ren has seen too many mutual accusations without evidence. Accusing both sides or one side of the accusation is an oath that the other party has done something that people and gods are angry about. After going through this, Hao Ren had to understand that this is a matter of believers who always believe, and those who do not believe. Although Hao Ren was frightened, he was unexpectedly not afraid. He felt that Kublai Khan's tone did not really mean to accuse him, and Kublai Khan was just really angry at this time.
So Hao Ren replied: "Returning to the Great Khan, the minister thought that the Great Khan did not think that it was the poison of the ministers. ”
"Humph!" Kublai Khan snorted angrily, probably to agree with Hao Ren's statement, or just to vent his anger.
Hao Ren heard that Kublai Khan's second son was very important to Zhenjin, and now Kublai Khan is very old, and he is probably the next Great Khan after Kublai Khan's return to heaven. At this time, the answer Ma Ba Ra was poisoned, and of course Kublai Khan would be angry.
"Great Khan, the minister only met with Tara Bara yesterday, if the Great Khan wants to ask me what happened yesterday, the minister should do his best to inform the Great Khan."
Hao Ren's words did not make the angry Kublai Khan even more angry, and Kublai Khan asked, "Who do you think will be possible?" ”
"Surely he is a person who has a grudge against Ta Ma Ba Ra. Either it is a person who has been punished by the Tarama Bara, or a person whose interests have been damaged because of the Tara Mahaba. Hao Ren replied cautiously but without concealment.
Kublai Khan pondered for a moment, but said nothing. This is true, but it is almost the same as not saying it. He has punished many people, and the mere possibility of becoming the next Great Khan will surely become a thorn in the side of many people. The list of these people is listed, and it is probably impossible to write it on a dozen sheets of paper. If you want to find the murderer from so many people, I'm afraid it's difficult.
"Great Khan, the minister came out of the palace of Tara Ma Bara this morning. Seeing the True God cultists killing people everywhere, the minister felt that the main messenger who poisoned him might not be a true God cultist, but he was afraid that the person who did this was a true God cultist, or at least a person who had a bad relationship with the true God cultist. Hao Ren continued.
"How do you know?" Kublai Khan asked with a frown.
Hao Ren told me what he saw yesterday. A: Ma Bara should be showing kindness to Hao Ren, but he is too cruel to the servants at home. At this time, the situation seen on the street was that the True God cultists were already generally hostile to the Mongols. Although I don't know who the main messenger behind it is, the only people who can use it are probably the True God Cultists.
After listening to Hao Ren's analysis, Kublai Khan's anger had subsided. He called a young squire and gave some orders. After the attendants left, Kublai Khan was silent for a while and said, "Do you know the news of Wang Donglu's death?" ”
Hao Ren felt uncomfortable after hearing the news. Wang Donglu was also a disciple of Hao Jing and served as the chief of Kublai Khan's guard for decades. In the past, Hao Ren was taken care of a lot by Wang Donglu, and when he passed away in the same door, he was naturally uncomfortable.
Looking at Hao Ren's expression, Kublai Khan sighed: "Today's young people don't know my mind as Wang Donglu. ”
Hao Ren didn't know if Kublai Khan was simply exclamation, or if there was something in his words. So he didn't say anything, just stood silent. But at this time, there was a strong feeling of hunger in the stomach, and then there was a sound of intestinal sound in the stomach. When Kublai Khan heard this, he snorted, and after a moment, he couldn't help but sneer: "How long have you not eaten?" ”
"From morning to now, I only ate a few bites casually, and I was called to the Great Khan."
"Come on, take Hao Ren to have a meal. Don't starve him. Kublai Khan commanded.
The Great Khan's imperial cooking skills are obviously very impressive, and although the seasoning of the meals he makes is different from what Hao Ren usually eats, Hao Ren is very acceptable. However, during the meal this time, Hao Ren didn't care about the meal at all, his mind was full of a question, what was the chaos of this baghdad. When he first came to Baghdad, Hao Ren thought that it was the location of the magnificent, beautiful and wealthy Mongolian Golden Horde, a city destined to be great because of Mongol rule.
It was only a day before that impression was shattered by what had happened. Those True God Cultists who rose up to rebel were nothing, and Hao Ren's Yuan State also implemented the policies learned from the Great Song Dynasty, and the Yuan Kingdom had no room for the True God Sect to survive. It is one thing to openly challenge the power of the Great Khan at the Kuritai Congress, but it is quite another to eliminate the prince by assassination. If the main messenger behind it is not the True God cultists who intend to take revenge, but the Mongolian nobles who intend to seize power, it means that there is already a terrible crisis in Mongolia.
It had been a long time since Hao Ren had prayed to the Immortal Heaven, a materialist who only believed in what really happened, that God was the name created by man. Many classics of the Han people have told the truth that it is better to seek others than to seek oneself. But in the face of such a huge crisis, Hao Ren only felt extremely great pressure. He really doesn't like Mongolia, but that doesn't mean that Hao Ren wants to sit back and watch Mongolia fall. Then, Hao Ren had to secretly pray to the immortal heaven that did not exist, hoping that this time things did not happen to the worst situation that Hao Ren feared.
While Hao Ren prayed quietly, he fully felt his powerlessness and incompetence.
Baghdad, where the Mongolian Golden Horde was located, was divided into the imperial city and the city of Baghdad. The core of the imperial city is the imperial palace, but the imperial palace is not all imperial cities. Hao Ren and the others were arranged to live temporarily in the non-imperial part of the imperial city. There are a lot of people who need to be arranged, so everyone can't pay attention to any accommodation conditions for the time being.
At nightfall, Hao Ren was awakened by a loud tremor and a loud noise. In a slight dizziness, Hao Ren felt a tightness in his chest and almost wanted to vomit. Without going outside to check, Hao Ren judged that maybe the powder magazine had exploded. Except for the powder magazine, there probably won't be any place that can cause such a big movement.
Not long after, I heard shouts of killing in the distance. After experiencing the battlefield that he can't remember how many times, Hao Ren walked out of the room calmly. After listening for a moment, he was sure that there were at least tens of thousands of people shouting outside the imperial city. I lit a cigar and stood outside, and it wasn't long before the sky, which was gradually glowing red with firelight, proved that a large number of houses had been set on fire.
Hao Ren recalled the daytime and lamented that under the grandeur and beauty of the beautiful city of Baghdad, there was a great crisis. Unexpectedly, after tonight, the city of Baghdad will be greatly reduced in its grandeur, beauty and richness.
