The Liao State also learned from the Song Dynasty to establish the division of five capitals, namely Linhuang Mansion in Shangjing Province, Dading Mansion in Zhongjing Province, Liaoyang Mansion in Tokyo Province, Xijin Mansion in Nanjing Province and Datong Mansion in Xijing Province.
The five capitals of the Liao State are not only the political and economic centers of the five provinces, but also have the role of accompanying the capital.
Linhuang Mansion is located on the prairie, and it is said that it is an ancient city that has been built for 16o years.
Before coming to the city gate of Linhuang Mansion, standing on the horse and looking up, even if he had already seen the majesty and magnificence of Kaifeng Mansion, he had to admire and admire the Liao State in front of him.
Perhaps in terms of area, Shangjing is almost half the size of Tokyo Bianliang. However, the shape of Linhuang Mansion is rectangular, which is different from Kaifeng Mansion.
After entering, it is the Liao characteristics of Linhuang Mansion, and the city is divided into two parts.
The hexagonal castle in the north, the city wall is three zhang high, and it is also divided into the inner city and the outer city, which is called the imperial city, and is specially inhabited by the Khitan people and other ethnic groups except the Han people. To the south is a square castle with a wall as high as two zhang, and the Han people live in it, so it is also called Seoul.
The political characteristics of the Liao State are that the official system is divided into two grades, and the southern officials are responsible for taxes, military horses, trade, construction and other matters in many states and counties of the Han people; The northern officials were in charge of matters such as palace accounts, tribes, and vassal states.
The so-called southern officials are dedicated to the Han people, while the northern officials are in charge of the various ethnic groups in the prairie. Ding Yang can be regarded as having seen the very ancient political form of one country, two systems, and he has to praise the wise policies of the Khitan people according to their conditions.
has been able to rule the prairie smoothly for more than 2oo years, and it cannot but be said that there are many advantages of the dual-track policy at work.
Ding Yang has already decided to take a look and learn more, and he will do the same after conquering the prairie in the future.
The Liao State claimed to have inherited the inheritance of China, so they basically copied the rules of the Tang Dynasty even in the official system.
Listening to Xiao Chaoqing's introduction, Ding Yang's face always remained in a very strange state. If you don't go to herd, you prefer to call it Hanlin, Mrs. Commandment, and so on, and you're really drunk.
Of course, the Hanlin of the Liao State has the Khitan script, called Lin Ya - the Yelu Dashi that rebuilt the Western Liao after the fall of the Liao State, which was the Hanlin of the Liao State at that time, so it was called the Great Stone Linya by many people.
Linhuang Mansion is very lively, although the crowd of people coming and going is not as dense as that of Kaifeng Mansion in Tokyo, but it is already very outstanding on the prairie.
It's a pity that the name of Bamiao Zhenren has not yet spread, and Ding Yang has not received the kind of welcome that he had when he was in Bianliang, Tokyo.
Passers-by are far more interested in Xiao Chaoqing than him. However, seeing that His Royal Highness King Liang seemed to respect the young man in front of him, many people asked around, "Who is this person?" ”
In the end, Xiao Chaoqing's guards shouted out proudly: "You don't even know his old man? ”
Elderly? It's clearly a young man! Where is it old? Talking nonsense with your eyes open in broad daylight!
"Hmph, this is the famous Eight Wonderful Real People in the Southern Dynasty Tokyo City! Speaking of other old masters, I am sure to scare you all to death - that is the Kunlun Mountain Seven-Star Dao Master who broke through the void and ascended to the fairyland in Bianliang City! ”
Originally, it was still a little unclear, but after hearing this sentence, a burst of exclamations in the crowd immediately dispersed.
Last year, the Seven Star Dao Chief's wife who made a fuss in Kaifeng Mansion disappeared after only showing her face.
As a result, all kinds of news were spreading everywhere, and many people in the Liao Kingdom had heard of the name of the Seven Star Dao Chief. There are even many people chasing after to inquire about the news of this living immortal, which is very popular anyway.
Such an introduction immediately caused a small sensation - there are still many people who have not heard of it.
Ding Yang felt a special pain in the egg - his last identity was just a small appearance, why is he so popular? It seems that there is still something wrong with the positioning, and this time it must be made up.
At present, on the prairie, if you want to be famous, you still have to rely on the promotion of the high-level of Liao, and the effect is absolutely leveraged.
Just in time for the Liao Emperor Yelu Hongji was not in Shangjing, and the family went out on a safari.
Anyway, hearing this news really made Ding Yang feel speechless, it's too nonsense?
According to Xiao Chaoqing, the situation has been unstable since the Sunset Cataclysm occurred in Liao State. At this time, Yelu Hongji, as the emperor, did not stay in the capital, but went out on a safari!
What kind of head does it take to have such a big brain hole?
However, this was indeed a little misunderstanding by Ding Yang, and it was only after Xiao Chaoqing's explanation that he understood.
Liao is not the Song Dynasty, and the emperor staying in the capital has never been the safest plan.
Because the Liao State ruled many nomadic tribes, the location of these tribes was never fixed. Always chasing aquatic plants and constantly migrating.
And there are many tribes on the steppe, in addition to the Khitan, there are countless nomadic tribes. Therefore, the hunt of the Liao emperor is equivalent to showing strong force in front of various tribes. Achieve deterrent purposes.
Therefore, it has always been a common thing for the Liao emperor to hunt in the grassland. Their core has never been to go to Beijing, but to follow the emperor's side.
The Khitan language is called a bowl, which translates to the palace. There are four different seasons every year, and you have to go to different places for hunting. This is the foundation of the Khitan state, and no one will say anything.
But when the emperor goes out hunting, there are corresponding rules, and he doesn't just go wherever he wants.
But Yelu Hongji was different, he was too fond of hunting, and even exceeded the limits of his own emperor. He spends at least 9o% of his time outside 365 days a year.
Although the emperors in the past had to go out on safaris, they also had to sit in the capital for the time arrangement.
It is very rare to exaggerate like Yeluhongji. Especially according to Xiao Chaoqing's statement in Bianliang before, the situation in Liao has been very unstable since the Sunset Disaster.
During this turmoil, Yelu Hongji went out on a safari like a person who had nothing to do, and Ding Yang said that he had nothing to say.
“…… However, His Royal Highness King Wei stayed in Beijing, and Xiao Wang could introduce real people. "The King of Wei mentioned by Xiao Chaoqing is Yelu Yixin, and since Qing Ning was appointed as the privy deputy envoy of the Southern Court to preside over the Northern Court in the fifth year, Yelu Yixin has been in power.
Four years later, he was canonized as the privy envoy of the Southern Yuan, and even more so as the king of Zhao, and he was favored by ordinary people. After the Chongyuan Rebellion was quelled, he became the privy envoy of the Northern Yuan, advanced to the king of Wei, and acted as the Taishi.
has always been very favored by Yelu Hongji, and presided over the government as a prince. Basically in the territory of Liao, it is a word. Except for Yelu Hongji, he did not put anyone in his eyes.
Even the crown prince Yelujun and the queen Xiao Guanyin were not taken seriously by him, and they were powerful for a while.
But Ding Yang didn't care about him at all, in fact, he didn't even pay attention to Yelu Hongji, let alone Yelu Yixin?
"Hmph, no need! Poor Dao remembered that His Royal Highness King Liang said that day that it was the Emperor of Daliao who was thirsty for talent, so Poor Dao decided to visit Daliao once, but he didn't expect such a cold reception. Since the emperor of your country is not in Shangjing, there is no need to delay the poor road for more time. After a short rest, the poor road wandered away. ”
Seeing that the expression on Ding Yang's face didn't seem to be fake, Xiao Chaoqing was suddenly startled.
He went through a lot of hard work and did everything he could to get people back. If you let it go, wouldn't it be a waste of energy? When Yelu Hongji asked, he must be responsible.
"No, don't be in a hurry, you might as well stay in Linhuang Mansion for a few days. Dao has lived in the Central Plains for a long time, and I am afraid that I have not seen the scenery on my prairie. Let's play first, Xiao Wang immediately got up and went to report to His Majesty! ”
Xiao Chaoqing said sincerely, but Ding Yang just insisted on refusing. And His Royal Highness King Liang didn't dare to coerce Bamiao Zhenren, so he could only continue to persuade hard, changing tricks for various reasons to persuade.
“…… Since you are here, even if you see all the beings in Pudu, you can't just let it go! The sunset catastrophe is still in Huanglong Mansion, and the world is in turmoil. If there is no real person to come forward, when will the thousands of people in Daliao enjoy peace! ”
Although Ding Yang is very interested in the Sunset Cataclysm, he has no patience for these big hats - by the way, your thousands of people have a Mao relationship with me?
However, since Huadou has said this, Ding Yang is not good at discrediting his glorious image. So he reluctantly agreed, but his face was full of reluctance.
"In this case, the poor road will stay for a few days, and by the way, educate the people of Liao. It can also be regarded as the lintel of a Taoist sect in Kunlun Mountain. However, this requires some necessary support, I wonder if His Royal Highness King Liang can make it convenient? ”
"That's nature, absolutely nothing to say! Not only do you have any orders, but you just say that. Even if Xiao Wang can't do it, His Royal Highness King Wei will definitely be able to help. ”
"Even if King Wei doesn't care, Poor Dao doesn't have extra time to meet these outsiders, so it's better to cultivate carefully."
"Yes, yes, the Taoist has been cultivating tirelessly, and he really deserves to be the descendant of the seven-star Taoist master, admire, admire!" Just after a few words of compliment, Xiao Chaoqing turned his tone and said: "But the Taoist is so hard, and there is no suitable person around to serve him, which is also a little insufficient." I also ask the Taoist chief to agree, and Xiao Wang will send Yu Yu to serve you tonight. It's always better to have someone to take care of than to be alone, and it's ...... to ask a real person not to excuse himself."
Although Ding Yang still looked a little unhappy on his lips, there was no real objection on his face.
So Xiao Chaoqing understood the truth, and after arranging his residence at the moment, he turned around and went back to find his sister Xiao Yuyun.
And Ba Miao Zhenren decided that after a night's rest, from tomorrow onwards, he will let the people of Daliao also see the power of Kunlun Mountain! It can be regarded as laying the groundwork in advance for the future capture of the prairie, and getting points from the level of faith!
