Chapter Ninety-Seven: Weakening the Peng Party
Soon, the Umbrella Tree tribe sent some shrewd natives, who were originally in charge of trade in the tribe, and they were responsible for better fighting for the benefits of the tribe, such as bargaining. Now they have come as a vanguard to learn the language of the gods, Cham, one of the Hindstronesian Malayo-Polynesian languages of the Austronesian language family. In other words, the Cham language is actually similar to the languages of Malaysia, Madagascar and the Philippines.
It just so happens that there is a team of husband and wife teachers among the more than 3,000 people on this trip, and it can be said that it is very suitable for them to teach the Cham language of the umbrella tree tribe together with the interpreter, this time they came to learn two aborigines, but they are not purebred black people, it is understood that their father is from the northern land, is the yellow race of the South Island, and a woman from the umbrella tree tribe combined with the remaining two of them, they quickly became a shrewd businessman under the teaching of their father, specializing in bargaining for the tribe, Later, his father built something called a boat and went back to find his hometown, and he never came back.
The two brothers learned very quickly, learning basic pronunciation in less than a day, which surprised the husband and wife, could it be that these two brothers were so talented in language? The brothers told them that he had heard something their father had never heard and offered to learn, but that their father had not taught them long before he left his hometown and never returned.
Then they had a bold idea: Could it be that our father is a man of God's kingdom? If not, how could their father speak the language of the Kingdom Messengers? Either the father is also a messenger of the kingdom of God, or the father has also been to the kingdom of God, or has been guided by people in the kingdom of God, or his father has been to the kingdom of God.
Then they asked, "What is God's world like?" ”
The husband and wife were stunned, how did they know? They were educated that there was no God in this world, and although they were faithful Brahmanical followers, they were confined to God as a sustenance.
"God's world? We don't know. Naturally, they couldn't describe it, after all, they hadn't been there, so how could they know what the world of the gods was like.
"Divine messenger, are you not from the world of God?"
"We are considered to be in the divine realm, but compared to other countries, our country is indeed considered a fairyland."
Looking at the two people with anticipating expressions, they began to introduce: "Our country, like your tribe, has a supreme chief, our great majesty, King Binasor, who is wise and powerful, and has led us to defeat many enemies, and now there is no war in our land, and no one dares to invade us, people live and work in peace and contentment, everyone has equal rights to education, there is no suspicion among people, people can go to any corner of the country, to enjoy the beauty of all places. ”
"We have been to Thang Long, another central city of the country, and we have seen all kinds of treasures of Thang Long Palace and admired its majesty. We have also been to Thang Long Zhenguo Temple to enjoy the beauty of different cultures in a foreign land. ”
Looking at the two people with yearning on their faces, they said: "When you settle down and learn the Zhan language, you can go over there to have a look, but it costs money to play haha." "Poor travel is poor travel, tickets to various attractions in Thang Long are not expensive, but it is a long way to take a boat to the Champa mainland, and it requires a lot of boat fare.
So they decided to make good money and go to Cham to find their father in the future.
Angkor Angkor Thom
The matter of forging a will has finally been quelled by the nobles, time will wash everything, and the people will not care about these battles, for them, whoever ascends the throne in the end is the real king.
The nobles also knew that the prince had been taken back to Angkor by Pongheya, of course, the top priority was to solve the problem of continuous population defections, after incomplete statistics, the population loss has reached 3,000 people, of course, this is only a small number for the Khmer, but after a long time, this population loss is probably not a small matter, population loss will affect agricultural production, taxation, industry and commerce, handicrafts and other levels, this not only affects taxes, but also affects recruitment, the army's combat capacity will also decline.
"If you have any way, please bring it up."
"Strictly restrict the movement of people, except for those who have obtained the government's population movement certificate, the rest of the people are not allowed to leave the city, in addition, the population movement certificate is reviewed and approved by the central government, and all bribery is eliminated."
"Not bad." The nobles nodded with satisfaction, this can indeed reduce the loss of population, the central government manages the affairs of various places, and it is a disguised strengthening of centralized power, the nobles silently recorded this person in a small book, and this person does not seem to support others, so why not develop him into his own subordinates, and it can be regarded as having a certain influence in the court.
"Is there anyone else who has another way?"
"Your Highness, we should solve the problem fundamentally, since the country has no leader, and the little prince has been designated as the heir, this series ......of time has occurred" said the official in charge of the state sacrifice, and he is also one of the members of the Peng Party.
The nobles looked at him and talked endlessly, they held their heads with a little headache, here again, here again, these people really don't stop for a moment, they can't take the initiative to give way, how long can they keep their glory and wealth by handing over the country to the eldest prince?
The eldest nobleman patted the table and said, "The court is used to deal with political affairs, not to complain to you. After several of our discussions, the ...... was cancelled and the ...... was set up, and the "nobles" move was to weaken the power of the prince and strengthen their influence in the court.
Naturally, Ponghea was dissatisfied with these operations of the nobles, and he naturally took the lead in opposing them, saying: "If the country lacks these positions, how can it function normally, and these positions must not be abandoned." ”
Seeing that the boss had spoken, everyone naturally expressed their support.
"yes, it can't be scrapped." Pongheya looked proud, with so many people supporting him, he saw how the nobility could abolish these positions today.
"These positions we have created are learned from the Yuan Court, and it has been abolished that no one is in charge of these affairs, but there are other ways of implementation, you don't have to worry, in the end, there are still people to manage these positions."
Naturally, Pongheya couldn't say anything, after all, their peak Khmer Empire was far from catching up with the Yuan Court, and even the Dayue at that time couldn't beat it.
