Chapter 1457: Evacuation of the country and the division of the city
In fact, there is no Nanzhao Kingdom now, and now there are four counties here, which have already started according to some rules of the Tang Dynasty, but the people below say that they are used to it, this habit is not something that can be changed by administrative order, as time goes by, soon the title of Nanzhao Kingdom will enter history, and Li Xiang did not deliberately ask his subordinates, after all, it is a little empty to say this with an administrative order, it seems a little empty-hearted, or let the people choose for themselves, they have the right to choose.
"Changing clothes."
After Li Xiang's words were finished, the Huaihua girl hurriedly found out the bright yellow clothes, and now she wants to meet with the senior officials of Nanzhao, so she has to take out His Highness's best-looking clothes, which represents the face of the Tang Empire, not to mention that the king of Nanzhao is still His Royal Highness's father-in-law......
Thinking of her father, Miss Huaihua also wanted to have such glory, but in the end she shook her head, her father was just a farmer near Chang'an City, because he entered the East Palace, so he was rewarded with fifty acres of land, and the life of the whole family was not bad, when he set off from Chang'an City, His Royal Highness rewarded fifty acres of land, and the two brothers had a better life, all of which were exchanged for themselves, and sometimes they didn't know whether to be happy or sad.
"Knock on His Royal Highness the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty."
When arriving at the original border, in addition to the royal family members of Nanzhao, the local magistrates also stayed here, Li Xiang came all the way from Chang'an, and did not meet the magistrates from all over the country, this is also to save time, if you go to a place and delay for a day, then I am afraid that you will not be able to reach the front line for three months, this is completely different from Li Xiang's temperament, if you do this, you can suffocate him alive.
"My father-in-law is very popular, and it seems that he is recuperating well these days."
Li Xiang walked a few steps quickly, the original king of Nanzhao to help up, now everyone will still call His Royal Highness the king, but from the next generation, this title is gone, according to the rules of the court, the Nanzhao royal family can have the title of a county king, but there is not much real power, or will be stationed here on behalf of the court, but the person who inherits the county king must go to Chang'an to study, and then come back to inherit the throne when he becomes an adult.
In addition to the hundreds of guards under his command, the Nanzhao Palace's palace could not have too many armed forces, and it could still operate outside, and it would only be a symbolic ruling force in the future, which meant that the Tang Dynasty had not forgotten the efforts of their ancestors.
Many people in the Nanzhao royal family were dissatisfied, they thought that the Tang Dynasty had robbed them of their rights, but after visiting the territory of the Tang Dynasty for a long time, they also acquiesced to this matter, if they stood up and resisted, not only did they lose their heads, but the living royal family members would also become ordinary people.
Just look at the countries around the Tang Dynasty, Nanzhao's life is good, at least you can keep an honorary title, and when you meet the court officials, you are also from the Nanzhao Palace, which is much better than other countries, look at the royal families of Goguryeo and Fusang, the next generation will directly become ordinary people, aren't they even more at a loss?
"Thanks to His Highness Hongfu, the weather has warmed up these days, and his body is much better than before, but His Highness is thinner than before."
King Nanzhao was not in good health some time ago, purely because of the canonization of the county king, I originally thought that I had to have a prince's title, you must know that the Tang court is different from other places, if the first generation is a prince, then the next generation will become the county king, one generation is lower than the next, this is also the royal reform implemented by Li Xiang.
Of course, it has not been implemented in the Tang Dynasty princes, but the newly canonized princes are all this standard, and this is also to avoid the pressure of the government in the last years of the Ming Dynasty, when Li Xiang said to Li Shimin, Li Shimin was still a little reluctant to implement it, but when Li Xiang calculated an account for Li Shimin, in the end Li Shimin also nodded and agreed.
It can't be because of the support for the Tang royal family, which eventually leads to a financial crisis in the entire imperial court, once it reaches that level, even if you want to regret it, you won't have a chance, and the people will think that these people in the Tang royal family are all rats, and they have eaten up the fruits of the labor of the whole country, can they still support your rule? It's good not to get up without revealing it.
King Nanzhao's luck is relatively poor, his next generation starts with the county king, if you can start from the prince, at least one more generation, of course, there is still care for them, and when it reaches the episode of the marquis, it will no longer continue to be demoted.
King Nanzhao himself also thought that it would take a hundred years at most, and after two generations, the Nanzhao Palace's Mansion would become the Nanzhao Marquis Mansion, but that's fine, compared to other countries, we have already gotten a lot, if we continue to ask for it, then it can't be said.
When he saw his son-in-law today, King Nanzhao originally wanted to say more, but thinking of Li Xiang's ruthlessness back then, the entire Nanzhao rolled in Li Xiang's hands at will, and finally pressed this word in his stomach, although the person in front of him was his son-in-law, but if it led to everything turning around, then he would be a sinner in this land in the end.
The Queen Mother of Nanzhao has passed away, it may be because of the loss of the country, or it may be because of physical reasons, Li Xiang was in Chang'an City at that time, so let the two sisters of Princess Yongning come back to mourn, at this time Li Xiang should also go over to pay respects, this is also a ceremony, after all, it is the daughter-in-law's grandmother.
King Nanzhao is also deliberately publicizing this matter, in order to let the local local officials understand that although Lao Tzu is not the king here, Lao Tzu's son-in-law is the future emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and our princess still has a very high status in Chang'an City, if you don't value us, you will still suffer in the future.
Li Xiang is such a smart person, of course he knows what this old man is thinking, so when he worships the queen mother, he also gives this guy enough face, but the court legislation is here, you can put on an extra stick of incense, but you must not bend your knees.
The Tang Dynasty court stipulates that no matter what kind of relatives it is, except for the ancestors of the Li clan, no one can make the Tang royal family kneel, and Li Xiang cannot break this rule, after all, so many royal family members are watching......
