0014 Naturalized Kansai
"I've been waiting for a long time!"
When Li Tai walked to the front hall, he saw that the governor of the mansion he saw yesterday was approaching him, so he smiled and said hello.
Helande bowed his hand: "Rong Xing is newly returning, it is the servant who disturbs Li Lang's rest." Only because of the unification of the great unification, the imperial court system, all new and old residents, that is, because of their residence, their place of origin needs to be cut off. The servant's mansion is idle, and he is afraid that Li Lang will not know how to enter the new company, so he takes the liberty to ask for help. Li Lang only needs to have a post to record it, and the servants will send it to the official mansion. ”
"I really don't know much about the Kansai ritual, thank you for the reminder."
As they spoke, the two merged into the front hall, and paper and ink had been laid out on the small table.
Before, because when he was in Tongguan, because he wanted to present a book to Yuwentai, Li Tai didn't dare to write. At this time, he just wanted to write about his family background, and he didn't have anything to scruple about, so he asked what format to use, and he picked up the pen and wrote.
The three generations of ancestors and grandchildren have moved to their homes, but they don't need to ask others, they all remember it in their minds, after all, this is the most important identity certificate of a person in ancient times. Not to mention that it is like a stream of memorization, at least it must be familiar with it.
His grandfather's name was Li Qian, and he was a servant of the Northern Wei Dynasty, a prince of Taiwei, a hussar general and a history of Jizhou assassination, which was a posthumous gift. It can be seen from this string of feudal officials that the Li family in Longxi is indeed really awesome in the Northern Wei Dynasty.
It is precisely because the Li family in Longxi is too awesome, so it was really miserable in the Heyin change more than ten years ago.
His father Li Xiao was a waiter outside the Northern Wei Dynasty, because he was bitten by a rat and did not catch up with the Heyin Change, he survived, and the other brothers were all cut by Er Zhurong, full of big koi.
After the Eastern Wei Dynasty moved its capital to Yecheng, Li Xiao went to Qinghe County, Hebei Province to seek refuge with his relative Cui Yi, and the Qinghe Cui family sent 30 hectares of land to help him settle down. And Qinghe County is the hometown of Li Tai's predecessor from childhood to adolescence in his memory, as for their Li family's original trip out of the county to Longxi, he has no memory at all.
"This font, this word...... It's really majestic, sobering and watching! Li Lang is worthy of the name of the clan and the lineage, as if everyone ...... penmanship"
At first, Heland only reminded the matters to be written in the next seat, but when his eyes fell on the end of Li Tai's pen, he couldn't move away, and gradually probed over, unconsciously his chin was clubbed on Li Tai's shoulder, looking at the handwriting that was still ink marks and sighed loudly.
When Li Tai heard this, he paused for a moment, and glanced sideways at Heland: "Changshi also loves calligraphy?" ”
"No, that's not the case...... is just working in the government, it is inevitable to look at the literature, and there are many types of pens I see, but none of them are like Li Lang and ...... Zhuang Mei! Alas, looking at Li Langyun's pen and ink, how dare I call it love? ”
When Helande heard this, he hurriedly waved his hand and shook his head, but his eyes were still staring at the book on Li Tai's case.
"On art, you are not proud of your skills, but you have the same interests, and you are good friends. Long history is fun, you and I can talk about calligraphy. ”
Although this Holland does not seem to be a famous minister, hearing that he admires his calligraphy, Li Tai also feels the joy of being a time-traveler for the first time.
His penmanship is written in regular script European style, although it is not very deep, but the basic gesture structure is also considered an introduction. Ouyang Xun is the first master of regular script, and his calligraphy style appeared at the end of the Northern Dynasty when regular script was still developing, and naturally has a cross-era aesthetic lead.
Li Tai's writing in European style is really not for show, except for this, he only has a rough calligraphy. At first, learning calligraphy was just to enrich the material, find some practice methods on the Internet to practice blindly, bluffing ordinary people can, really want to meet any calligraphy masters, it is inevitable to show timidity.
Li Tai was only secretly cool for a moment, and he didn't take this to heart, in the troubled times, after all, the gun was the hardest, and everything else was empty.
"May I ask Changshi, if I break my nationality, will I go straight to Wuxiang County, Huazhou?"
After writing and putting away the pen, Li Tai turned his head and asked again.
"Well, this, it still depends on what Li Lang wants."
It took a while for Helande to withdraw his gaze from the notebook, and hurriedly replied: "Not only Huazhou, but also Yongzhou and other states have officials who send affairs to Daxingtaifu. If you need to be naturalized in another state, the subordinate departments can also be dealt with as appropriate. ”
"Does it make a difference?"
Li Tai asked curiously.
"There is indeed a slight difference, in the wide township, the land is calmly granted, and in the narrow township, the number of fields is small. In addition, the states are different from each other, and the local conditions are all different, and the military service is also different. However, Li Lang, you are in the official position, and you can ignore the future. ”
Holland replied with a smile.
Li Tai was stunned when he heard this, and then said: "I'm not an official, I entered the customs with the army, and I have always been a white messenger." Isn't it an official, and this loss of service still has a lot of impact? ”
"Li Lang hasn't released the brown yet? That's my recklessness, neither an official body, but there is no need to be too anxious to cut off the nationality, naturalization is required to lose the class, and the court is strict. The expedition of the valley is still a trivial matter, but the service is cumbersome, if there is no official exemption, the annual labor will be several months! ”
Hearing Holland say this, Li Tai also felt a little big. When he had dinner early in the morning, he was still lamenting the extravagant life of the ancient aristocracy, but he didn't expect that he would have to consider paying taxes and serving as soon as he turned his head.
The tax law of the Western Wei Dynasty implemented rent regulation, which was one less than that of the Tang Dynasty. But it does not mean that the people of the Western Wei Dynasty are not responsible for forced labor, on the contrary, it is much heavier than that of the Tang Dynasty. Because Yong is to accept silk instead of forced labor, the Western Wei Dynasty did not have this option at all.
In terms of military service and the like, Li Tai was not afraid, he practiced lance skills every day, and he also wanted to take advantage of the momentum of the Western Wei and Northern Zhou Dynasty to unify the world. But the premise is that he has to have his own army, and if he really wants to be a big soldier on the battlefield, then he is really tired of looking for excitement.
And there is not only one kind of military service, he will never be able to make a name for himself and live long enough, and he was requisitioned by Emperor Yang of Sui to repair the canal, is this crossing unjust?
Seeing Li Tai's brows furrowed, Helande said after a little muttering: "In fact, there is another way to exempt yourself from servitude, that is, you should open a public mansion and donate your life. But when the Great Mansion is opened, I really have no way to get it for Li Lang. The Situ Mansion has no authority to add the system, and he is afraid of being a ...... of the famous clan."
It's good to be naturalized and exempted, Li Taicai doesn't care about any famous family, and after hearing this, he said: "I am a senior envoy, and it is also a matter of conformity to enter the confiscation mansion." I am really not familiar with the charter of the incident, and I also need to have Lao Changshi as an agent. As for naturalization, can you be naturalized in Yongzhou? Is there such a location in Ryushouhara, Kyonnan? Which county does it belong to? If you have to attach this, it would be great! ”
If he is not mistaken, today's Chang'an is still the ancient city of the Han and Jin dynasties, and it was not until the establishment of the Sui Dynasty that the Daxing City was built, that is, the later Chang'an City, which is located on the Longshou Plain.
Since naturalization still has Juntian's land territory, of course, you have to pick a good place. Even if it is only three or five acres, if it happens to be selected in the future Taiji Palace and Daming Palace, it can also be touched by the emperor's spirit, live in auspiciousness, and maybe mix up some demolition fees.
"I'm not from Chang'an, I don't know for sure, I have to ask the official of the other department, and I will do my best to do what Li Lang wants!"
Helande wrote down Li Tai's request and made a guarantee, and then said: "When I entered the mansion early in the morning, I heard that some generals were going to Long, and they were in the banquet today. I heard that Li Lang returned with a number of generals, it should be a love and righteousness, do you need to go to He Qian? ”
After hearing this, Li Tai nodded: "Some generals have done a lot of duty to me, and they really need to go to the mansion to thank you!" ”
When leaving the Shayuan camp, some Hui said that he would let Li Tai settle down in the city and go to his house as a guest, but he didn't expect to leave so soon. It seems that the Battle of Bishan had a great impact on the Western Wei Dynasty, and many personnel transfers had to be carried out as soon as possible.
It is reasonable that Li Tai should indeed take advantage of some Hui on the road to pay a visit, but he can't go to eat empty-handed, although he has done this many times on the way back.
"I want to ask the chief history again, what measure should the Kansai people be polite to not be rude?"
After thinking about it, Li Tai opened his mouth again and asked.
Helande replied with a smile: "The style of Kansai is simple, and it is not a matter of courtesy, and it is up to each other to be courteous and thrifty. Some generals have accumulated meritorious deeds and family business, and the gold and silver they went to Longbian are all vulgar things. In my opinion, it is better to give a treasure than to use it, this trip to the side, the journey is far away, and it is inevitable that the carriage and horse will be strained. Li Lang is not as good as having a hub and other things, every time it needs to be replaced, the recipient must also think about it. ”
Li Tai was stunned after listening to Heland's answer, did you ancients deal with gifts so down-to-earth? Don't send gold, silver and jewelry, don't send wine and delicacies, just send a few cars and inner circles?
Although he was a little surprised, he didn't have a generous gift to give him a farewell, and some Hui was quite greedy for him, so he couldn't go with him!
After thinking about it for a while, Li Tai called Gao Bailing again and asked if it was appropriate to give such a gift.
Gao Bailing heard that he was going to visit the general of the Western Dynasty, and he didn't dare to slack off, so he trotted to the backyard to ask for instructions, and after returning, he held a wooden box in his hand and said: "The lord said that if you follow the customs of the country, it will be expensive if it is applicable, and what Helan Changshi said is true." The hub, axle wood and other things in the house, Lang Jun takes it himself. But don't let my friends in Kansai stingy with people from Dongzhou, and give it to Lang Jun with 30 taels of gold. ”
Hearing Gao Zhongmi say the same, Li Tai was no longer entangled, but when he heard that he would send thirty taels of gold, he felt a little precious. The weights and measures of the Western Wei Dynasty have been made from a small system, one catty is about equal to 222 grams in later generations, and according to the gold price of 401 grams, this is more than 100,000 ah!
But if you look at it according to the concept of later generations, a number of Hui Qinzhou assassins also belong to the commander of the military region, and the gift of more than 100,000 yuan is not extraordinary. Moreover, if they want to gain a foothold in Guanzhong for a long time, they are indeed indispensable for the friendly help of military and political officials.
So Li Tai ordered ten entourages, pulled half a cart of hub axle wood and other frame accessories, and the box of gold, left the house, and went straight to some of Hui's mansions in Huazhou City.
He doesn't know what predicament he will encounter in the near future, otherwise he will definitely reprimand Gao Zhongmi's ruined behavior!
