Chapter 2: Luo Su enters the customs
When Yang Jian was young, he was influenced by the environment and believed in Buddhism, and he also believed in the existence of gods.
If the five emperors are gods, there are many kinds of dragons and gods.
When King Su descended, there was purple qi coming from the east for 30,000 miles.
When the mother of Luo Shen, Xizi was pregnant, she tasted a dream and a phoenix into her arms, and when she descended, the purple light filled the room.
Emperor Qin had a great day in his arms.
Henkel has a dragon birthday.
Since ancient times, the legends have emerged in endlessly, and the name of the emperor is the emperor, and Luoshui swore to destroy the Sima clan, and he couldn't help but believe it.
But all until he became the Son of Heaven.
He was convinced that he was born without a vision, and that he had no miracles when he became the Son of Heaven.
But people in the world don't think so, because he is actively or passively spreading some remarks to the outside world.
So there is such a voice among the people-
"The emperor was born in Boruo Temple, and when he was born, he was full of purple air."
"There are high-ranking monks from the Western Regions, saying: 'Lin'er is extraordinary, not suitable for the world'."
"The emperor tasted the emperor, and suddenly saw the horns on the head, like a deer, and saw the scales long, the emperor was shocked, and the appearance of this dragon was also."
Such voices are endless, so it seems logical for him to become the Son of Heaven.
But Yang Jian himself knew that these were all fake, and they were all made by himself, so he naturally suspected that those visions of the historical God King when he was born were also false.
Until this vision of the peak collection rolled in, and before his last rebuke decree fell, the next vision had already been on his desk, making him feel overwhelmed.
With a keen political acumen, he soon realized that these visions needed to be put to good use to strengthen his rule.
But there are many rumors among the people, saying that a saint was born, so the heavens sent a vision.
Yang Jian's rule was relatively strict, the taxes were relatively heavy, and the oppression of the people was relatively severe, and the people had always had a long-lasting resistance, so some people used these visions to rebel.
These rebellions are like waves, they can't reach Yang Jian at all, they will be extinguished by the local county guards, and in the end they are just a casual sentence when reporting work.
But Yang Jian cared about these things very much, and he felt a power from them that was not under his control.
In countless rumors, the one that Luo's initiative spread gradually spread to the Central Plains, and it was a ballad that Luo's was coming back.
When this proverb spread to the Central Plains, the repercussions caused were so great that they could not be described in words, if it was to be described in one word, it could only be an earthquake!
Ordinary people are okay, those powerful people are simply shocked to the point of incomprehension.
What is Rockwell?
In the impression of the world, it is the Gusu Luo clan, and the Jiangnan Gate Valve Clan, which is juxtaposed with Nalan Lingxiao and other scholars, in today's world, it is regarded as a first-class gate valve, compared to those gate valves of the Northern Dynasty who have been from the dragon for a hundred years are naturally worse, but the prestige is high, the door is high, and the inheritance time is long, no one will despise it.
The main branch of the Luo clan in Winterfell is already a family that has been annihilated in history in the eyes of most people.
After all, the area where Winterfell was located was a dark place that no one knew, and Zhu Xia's gaze was only a few hundred miles after passing through the Liaoxi Corridor, which was already the farthest area projected by the Central Plains.
As a result, such a family, which had disappeared for nearly two hundred years, suddenly showed signs of activity, and it was such a major event as the birth of a saint, who could not care?
If it is another family, there is still a risk of counterfeiting, but it is the main branch of Luo's, a family with anti-counterfeiting stigma.
Is there really a Luo's lineage still in the world?
Could it be that Luo's really wants to prepare to return south, from that legendary Winter City, back to the Central Plains?
No matter whether the person who spread the nursery rhyme is Luo's or not, no matter what the person who spreads the nursery rhyme has, as the Son of Heaven, Yang Jian must find out.
Otherwise, he was worried that his throne would not be steady, but he could slaughter the people of the previous royal family for the throne, and the Luo clan would not be able to affect his throne.
Dugu Jialuo believed in these miracles even more, and she encouraged Yang Jian to look for signs of Luo's existence.
So Yang Jian sent people to investigate in the direction of the legendary Winter City, "If you don't get the news of Luo's family, you can't return to the Central Plains." ”
Not only him, but also the Gusu Luo clan, the Linzi Lu clan, Lanling Xiao, and Qinghe Cui, these families heard the news and went to Winter City to look for it.
In addition to these people, there is another big man, that is Yang Guang, the king of Jin!
The purpose of his search is not simple, "Lone is the son of heaven, and he needs to be added to the glory of Luo's." ”
As for where people should go, except for the Gusu Luo clan, basically no one knows, and it can only be based on the legend that "the winter dwells between the white mountains and black waters, and the mountains gather", which corresponds to the location in the proverb.
……
Winterfell's Luo's naturally didn't know that because of a proverb that attracted the search of the Son of Heaven and everyone, since Luo Su came to the world, the atmosphere of Winterfell has changed greatly, although it is still living as in the past, but the city is full of a kind of dry heat, commonly known as the heart is not quiet!
The initiator of this atmosphere was naturally Luo Su, but he himself was very calm and did not rush to leave Winterfell because he could not grow up for a long time.
The small courtyard that Luo Cheng prepared for Luo Su first was in the center of the Luo Palace in Winterfell, and the small courtyard was not big, and the entire Winterfell City did not have a large courtyard.
The courtyard is paved with gray and blue stone slabs, and there is a rather thick willow tree, under which is placed a square stone table, the surface of the stone table is polished as smooth as possible, but some unevenness and potholes can still be seen in the light.
The building is a combination of stone and wood, and the traces of time on the stone have a rather ancient taste.
Luo Su was much older than when he first came into the world, his long hair was not tied up, he was dressed in extremely simple clothes, like a piece of cloth wrapping him, with a belt around his waist, and the phoenix feather stigma between his eyebrows, which made the maid who served him stunned.
Luo Su sat under the willow tree with a book in his hand, sensing this scene, his index finger and middle finger together, and with a wipe between his eyebrows, the phoenix feather holy mark disappeared in an instant, but his white and innocent forehead seemed to light up.
"Ancestor."
Luo Cheng first bowed down at the gate of the courtyard to ask to see him, Luo Su responded, Luo Cheng walked in step by step, knelt in front of Luo Su, and said in a low voice: "Ancestor, the news of your birth has gradually spread throughout the Central Plains, do you need the family's attention at all times?" ”
Luo Su shook his head and said: "No need, the strength of the family must be preserved, there is no need to waste it on these indifferent things, now it is just a matter of letting them be mentally prepared, I will personally go to the Central Plains."
Go and meet the affairs of the world and the people of the world, judging from the information I have obtained now, there is something wrong with the data of the Sui Dynasty, and I will go to its country to take a look in person. ”
Luo Cheng first thought that Luo Su had already considered leaving Winterfell so quickly, and hurriedly asked, "Old Ancestor, when are you going to leave?" ”
Luo Su muttered softly, "In ten years, I will leave Winterfell and go to the Black Water Great Xianbei Mountain first, when fifty spirit soldiers will accompany me to protect my safety. ”
Luo Cheng should be the first and then leave.
The courtyard door was pushed open, and a group of children ran in cheering, all saluting Luo Su seriously, and said in unison: "Ancestor~"
These children sat down around Luo Su, the weather was not cold, the warm wind blew, the willow branches swayed lightly, the willow leaves rattled, Luo Su smiled on his face, opened the book and said: "Today I will tell you about the relationship between the monarch and the people."
The king is the head of the world, the weight of all things, and the people are the foundation of the world.
Jun, Zhou also; people, water also; Water can carry a boat, or it can capsize a boat. ”
Luo Su's voice echoed in the small courtyard, and in the days when he woke up, this was his daily routine, eating and sleeping, reading and teaching, confirming the changes.
He had already been the ruler of a dynasty, and now all he needed to do was to remove his outdated things from his mind and keep only the most fundamental logic.
……

……
The river is sparkling, Luo Su and others wade through the water, occasionally there are fish jumping out of the water, stirring up a circle of ripples, the sunset is sprinkled on the river, the golden light and the turquoise river water reflect each other, here is the forbidden land of human beings, the pure land of living beings.
This is Blackwater!
It gets its name because of the darkness of the water, but under the light, what Luo Su sees is a colorful refraction.
On the riverside are countless pines and cypresses, and under the golden light, the forests are dyed.
The golden leaves fall on the surface of the river, gradually darkening and blackening, and then sink into the water, turning into rotten silt, and countless fallen leaves drift with the waves, and the reeds also sway in the autumn wind, making a rustling sound.
In a land that should have been lifeless, Losu saw a thriving life, inhabited by countless tribes, many of whom had traveled to Winterfell to trade, but many others that he couldn't name.
He came to the Great Xianbei Mountain, to the black water.
The reason why he came here was because he realized that this place was the source of the endless emergence of the Donghu system for more than a thousand years, and he looked back at Winterfell, from Winterfell to here, it can be said that it is far away, it is difficult for the army to come, and the tribes here, once they leave, it is difficult to come back and establish rule.
Since no great empire would have its political center in Winterfell, it would be impossible to rule the city.
Luo Su began to climb over the Great Khing'an Mountains along the black water, the path he walked was something that no one had ever walked before, and he couldn't drive here, so he rode a horse and walked in the forest, the verdant and green forest, as if it was boundless, from time to time there was a huge roar from the mountain, whenever this time, the mountain monarch on Luo Su's side would respond with an angry roar.
The Great Khing'an Mountains are the natural barrier of the land of Liaodong, this mountain range that spans 2,000 miles, divides the civilization of nomadism and fishing and hunting, and at the same time blocks the warm water and vapor, making Liaodong the coldest zone.
Only by standing at the top of the Great Khing'an Mountains can you see how good the location of Winterfell is, it is a very flat land, no worse than the land of the Central Plains, Luosu, who has been in Winterfell for ten years, naturally knows that the fertility under the land is a pity that it is difficult to develop.
Standing at the end of the side of the Great Xing'an Mountains, Luo Su patted the mountain monarch on his side and laughed softly: "Okay, you should go back, the mountain monarch should not leave the mountain at will, go back to your territory." ”
The huge body of the mountain monarch roared in a low voice, the striped fur was smooth, like silk, its head rubbed in Luo Su's hand, it naturally didn't dare to lick Luo Su, after all, its mouth was full of barbs.
Shanjun left step by step, and every few steps he would look back at Luo Su, with a strong sense of reluctance in his eyes, Luo Su smiled and waved his hand, and the mountain jun finally let out a roar that resounded through the valley, and a few longitudinal leaps disappeared in Luo Su's eyes.
The smoke and dust fell, disappeared, and then went west, crossed the Great Khing'an Mountains and then went west, and then came to the second destination of Luosu's trip, Modong Grassland, and the grassland people called it "Hulunbuir".
What is Modong?
The East of the Desert also!
Mo Nan and Mo North are not strangers, these two have always been the grassland and the Central Plains where the confrontation is, this Mo East Grassland, is the only place that connects Mo Nan and Mo North Grassland, if the army does not want to cross the desert that is deserted and even has no vegetation creatures, then Mo Dong Grassland is the only place.
Today it is the territory of the Winter Turks.
Luo Su stayed here for a long time and then came to a conclusion that the Winter Turks should perish, and this Modong grassland should be taken down.
He came into the world to solve the intractable problems, not to let a dynasty go unpunished.
If he simply exerted influence here, he believed that the newly established Sui Dynasty could use its great strength to subdue the Winter Turks and even the entire steppe world, just as the Han Dynasty had done.
But in Luo Su's view, that can't fundamentally solve the problem, the battle to exterminate Hu back then, it can be said that it gathered the power of Zhuxia, and the Luo clan was eliminated to exterminate the Hu people's mandate, and the results achieved by Zhuxia only lasted for a hundred years.
Once the Central Plains declines, the surrounding foreign vassals will return, and it is impossible to kill all the Hu people, especially the Eastern Hu family, which will be a nightmare for any conqueror in the vast Great Khing'an Mountains.
Even a daring warrior wouldn't want to fight here.
After recording the Modong grassland, a stubborn disease that Zhuxia could not control, he wanted to go to the territory of the Winter Turks to see, in his time, those nomads were different from now, Xirong and Beidi were in the territory of Zhuxia now.
He wanted to see the pure nomads with his own eyes, and then he was surrounded by hundreds of cavalry riding the Winter Turks in a col in the Wolf Juxu Mountain, who made him too ostentatious?
At first glance, it was a noble person traveling, without concealment, so he was naturally targeted, and before he could speak, the spirit soldiers had already roared and swarmed up, chopping melons and vegetables to scare away a group of cavalry, leaving a corpse and some prisoners.
From these captives, Luo Su learned that there was a violent friction between the Winter Turks and the Western Turks, and that after the Western Turks had achieved some success in attacking the Western Regions, their strength had greatly increased, and they were unwilling to submit to the Winter Turkic Khanate as the suzerain, so war broke out.
"The Sui Dynasty is about to get the submission of the steppe."
After listening to these words, Luo Su said that the internal struggle of the steppe tribes has always been an undesirable condition for the Central Plains Dynasty to rule the grassland, and now the two Turkic khanates are fighting internally, and the weaker side will definitely be attached to the Central Plains, since ancient times, since the Bangzhou period.
After killing these Turks, Luo Su went west along the Mobei road, he wanted to see all the eighteen tribes on the steppe, he wanted to see these lowest-level herdsmen, as well as those nobles on the steppe.
When the sun rose, Luo Su saw that a tribe was migrating, those people spoke the elegant language of the Central Plains, the leader of the tribe was wearing clothes from Winterfell, Luo Su came out from behind the mountain, the leader of the tribe saw a fully armored army appear, and was in a shock, but saw one of them come out, with a beautiful appearance, like a god, two fingers together in the center of the eyebrows, and a phoenix feather sgilt was revealed.
The leader of the tribe was even more shocked when he saw it, and immediately knelt on the ground and shouted: "Born Supreme, the sun and the moon surround you. ”
His voice was sincere and tinged with indescribable excitement.
Luo Su asked directly, "Aqina, where are you going?" ”
This Aqina is not a Turkic person, but a Hu person from Liaodong, I didn't expect to see it here, many of these Liaodong Hu people are like gods to the Luo family, not to mention Luosu.
Aqina knelt on the ground and said in a loud voice: "Supreme, the Winter Turks have occupied our grassland, the tribe can not survive, we have to migrate, I heard that the Son of Heaven in the Central Plains is willing to take us, let us go to the warm Monan, we want to go to the Son of Heaven in the Central Plains, and herd horses for him to survive."
Supreme You once said that the southern kingdom can allow 10,000 people to live, but my tribe only has 40,000 people, so it must be able to survive. ”
It is the common practice of the Central Plains Dynasty to control Hu with Hu and control the remote and difficult to attack Mobei with Monan, not that no one can not see the disadvantages of this method, but this method is the most economical and can effectively relieve financial pressure, so to speak, after entering the middle of the empire, this is the only way to maintain influence on the grassland.
Hearing this, Luo Su nodded and said: "We Xia people have an old saying, the first one to serve can always get more fruits, your choice is right, if there is a chance, we will see you again." ”
Arkina still knelt, "Supreme, where are you going, I am willing to follow you and become your servant." ”
Luo Su laughed loudly, "I'm going all the way west, your tribe can't survive, you take your tribe south, I'm leaving." ”
Aqina said with some regret: "Supreme, please accept the good horse I have presented to you, and may it follow you all the way to the west." ”
With that, he got up and brought over a few horses that were fat and strong at first glance, these horses were the most fierce horses, but Archena knew that in front of this supreme, no horse was a fierce horse.
Sure enough, as soon as Luo Su's hand stroked, the war horse directly knelt on the ground and let Luo Su ride up, Luo Su smiled and said: "Since this is the case, I will accept these war horses, and if we meet again in the future, I will give you a gift." ”
Aqina was full of joy, and the two separated, Luo Su to the west, Achina to the south, and faintly, Luo Su heard Aqina leading the sons and daughters singing.
"Eilechuan, under the Yin Mountain."
"The sky covers the dome, and the earth cages the four wilds."
Luo Su felt the steady horses under his crotch, listened to the reckless singing, recalled the grassland tribes he had seen in these days, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "Sing the song of Yinshan Mountain, and the heroes are singing with tears." ”
Luo Su can be sure of one thing, no one has ever been on the grassland for so long with a research mind like himself, and he may be the only Zhuxia person who has gone to the grassland to understand it deeply.
After spending so much time on the grassland, Luo Su knew why there seemed to be a horizontal canopy between the Central Plains and the grassland.
This is not only a difference in the mode of production, but also a huge difference in thinking, which is almost incomprehensible to both sides, for example, in the Winter Turkic state, there is an official position called Dachi Khan.
This is not a khan, but a servant officer of the khan, and this official position has what power, he can judge prisoners, he can decide military aircraft, he can manage government affairs, and he can even kill people directly.
From the Han people, it is impossible to find an official position corresponding to this kind of official position, and the highest Han courtier is the prime minister, but the prime minister cannot be so powerful.
If you can't understand the thinking of the Hu people and rudely rule the Hu people in the way of ruling the Han people, then the final result is now.
After the collapse of the rule of the Han Dynasty, the rule of the Wei and Yan states also collapsed, obviously pressing the Hu people to fight for hundreds of years, but after the establishment of the Sui Dynasty, it was necessary to reintegrate the grasslands.
Luo Su can even conclude that if this problem is not solved, then even if the Sui Dynasty passes through the grassland, when the Sui Dynasty falls into decline, the system will immediately collapse again.
Thinking of this, Luo Su shook his head, this is not good, solving the problem of the rule of the Hu people is one of the purposes of his trip to the grassland.
The Central Plains called the forces on the steppe the eighteen tribes of the steppe, but in fact there were many more tribes than this, and these people were called Turkic people by the Central Plains, but in fact they were all divided internally.
Here, Luo Su met completely different Hu and Xia people.
It is not surprising to see the Xia people on the grassland, when the Yan Kingdom collapsed, some ran back to their hometown in Liaodong, some ran to the west, and those who established countries in Hexi and the Western Regions ran to the grassland.
Even if these Han people live a herding life, they are still completely different from other nomadic tribes, such as their reading, they are more organized, and the costumes of the chiefs are Han costumes, which are all traces of living in the Central Plains.
But Luo Su didn't care about this, these people lived on the steppe for a long time, and eventually they would definitely succumb to another powerful tribal power, these things were difficult to maintain.
What he was really interested in in the steppe was, monks!
There are quite a few peoples on the grassland who believe in immortality, and as for what immortality is, it can only be said that this is a kind of nature worship, just as the Zhuxia people believe in the sky.
This nature worship has a raw flavor and is also full of wildness.
The monks who appeared on the grassland brought another kind of faith to the grassland, and as soon as Luo Su understood it a little, he knew that these monks were all from the Western Regions and were brought to the grassland by the Western Turks.
Luo Su had heard when he was in Winterfell that the Buddhism in the Western Regions and the Central Plains was not the same path at all, and the Buddhism in the Central Plains was constantly integrating Taoism and Confucianism, developing more and more towards philosophy, while Buddhism in the Western Regions was developing more and more mysteriously.
Two hundred years ago, the difference was already very large, and after this chaotic era, it is not known what the Western Regions Buddhism will develop.
As for the monks that Luo Su sees now, Buddhism in the Western Regions is already quite evil, at least in his opinion, a person who only believes in King Su, it is already a little unreasonable.
After Luo Su followed these monks for a while, the brilliance in his eyes became brighter and brighter, the natural belief of Changshengtian, in front of Buddhism in the Western Regions, was completely passively beaten, and it could be said that there was no resistance.
After confirming this fact, Luo Su knew that he had to go to the Western Regions this time, and it was right to travel thousands of miles, if he hadn't gone out to see the world, how could he know that there were still these things in the world?
However, before going to the Western Regions, Luo Su knew that it was time for him to end this trip to the grassland, which lasted two and a half years, and he gained a lot from the trip, but also gained two questions.
How to rule the steppe Hu people at a low cost and in a stable manner.
How to control the Modong grassland and ensure its stability.
After reading the grassland, the next step should be the Central Plains.
Luosu passes through the grassland from east to west, and then goes south from the grassland, just enough to enter Guanzhong directly.
This is the first time he has returned to the Central Plains in the world, so he wants to go to Guanzhong to have a look.
It's not about looking at the majestic Chang'an City.
Instead, I went to see the pickaxe capital, which has become a ruin, and has long been broken!
The pickaxe capital city that he dreams of!
————
When the vision appeared, there was a rumor among the people: "In the extreme north of winter, the heavenly city of the snow country, between the white mountains, above the black water, the saint was born, and the Luo family returned to the south!" ”
The emperor is terrified! - "Book of Sui: Emperor Wen Benji"
