Chapter 285: Cuiwei Palace
The next morning, Liu Che got in the car and drove to Cuiwei Palace.
The purpose of Li Jing's trip is to go to the palace to relax, since he lost his money, he has not been in a good mood, and it just so happens that there is nothing important recently, so he wants to go to the palace to relax.
On top of the royal car, Li Jing flipped through the notes sent by the black-clothed guard in his hand, which said that there was a natural disaster in Yingzhou, which was likely to lead to a reduction in grain production.
But Li Jing knows in his heart that there are some signs now, but soon, the disaster will become more and more serious, not to mention the reduction of production, and there will be no harvest directly.
"In Yingzhou, there can be a piece of music to send"
Li Jing turned around and asked.
"There is no report from Yingzhou!"
Ximen Yang fork hand.
After getting Ximenyang's answer, Li Jing frowned slightly, it was only a little sign now, and it was really hard to say whether there would really be a natural disaster.
If it weren't for the fact that Li Jing was a traverser and knew what the consequences of this natural disaster would be, I am afraid that he would not have taken it to heart, and the governor of Yingzhou did not take it too seriously, which was also a normal reaction.
Li Jing flipped through the notes in his hand, and he was still faintly uneasy in his heart, if Xue Ne, like the former governor of Yingzhou, ignored the Khitan in Yingzhou, it would lead to a Khitan rebellion. "Khitans, Murwei people......"
A playful smile overflowed at the corner of his mouth: "Perhaps, I can ......"
Li Jing thought of a way, if he wanted to solve the Khitan problem, he needed to solve it fundamentally.
This natural disaster will lead to no harvest in the north, and the Khitans will bear the brunt!
If you want to solve this problem, as long as you can ensure that the Khitans can survive, then even if Li Jinzhong wants to rebel, there will not be many willing to rebel with him.
The earliest record of the Khitan people is found in the Book of Wei, and some documents that record the origin of the Khitan are roughly divided into two versions: the Xiongnu theory and the Donghu theory.
These two theories have derived from two other theories, one is the product of the fusion of the Xiongnu and Xianbei, and the other is from other parts of the Xianbei lineage, not the direct descendants of the Xianbei department.
The Khitan comes from the Xianbei or Xianbei Yuwen Department, from the literature of the time and later the Tang Dynasty, the Khitan is the "seed of the Xiongnu", which is the saying of the Song Dynasty.
Of course, the formation of the Xianbei tribe itself is very complex, which also leads some people to believe that the Khitan is a descendant of the Xianbei Yuwen Department in the eastern part of the Donghu system, from the "remnant species" of the Xiongnu.
Xianbei Yuwen Department is even more so, the Eastern Han Dynasty Yongyuan first year to Yongyuan seventeen years, the Xiongnu was broken by the Han general Geng Kui, Beidan after fleeing, Xianbei entered the Xiongnu homeland.
"There are more than 100,000 Luo" Huns who did not flee joined Xianbei.
However, more than 100,000 Huns did not claim to be the Huns, and began to call themselves Xianbei, the Huns had defeated Xianbei, and Xianbei was a feud.
The hometown of the Xiongnu was occupied by Xianbei, and these Huns who did not want to leave their homeland were worried about being liquidated by Xianbei, so they could only claim to be Xianbei to save their lives and the survival of the ethnic group.
This Xiongnu people lived in their hometown in this way, and after that, in order to better survive, this Xiongnu people had to live in a mixed place with the Xianbei people for a long time.
The two parties intermarry with each other to affect the two parties, and the difference is becoming less and less obvious, although it has a main source in the process of formation, it is still multi-source and multi-stream.
The Murwei people, who are of the same origin as the Khitan, are said to be "Khitan and the like", or "the Miao descendants of Ding Ling".
Combined with the historical investigation of its geographical location, social production and customs, the main part of it comes from the Xianbei Yuwen Department, which is a descendant of Donghu.
The Book of Wei speaks the same language as Kumoxi, Khitan, and Doumo.
In the "Book of Sui", it is recorded that Damurowei, who is located in the northwest, "does not understand the language", but in the "New Tang Book", it is said that "its language, the Yan Ya also"!
These different records also reflect that Murowei is not a single ethnic community, but a national complex of different origins.
If it is roughly divided by region, the central part belongs to the Donghu ethnic group, the western part belongs to the Turkic system, and the eastern part belongs to the Sushen and Qian ethnic groups.
It is precisely because of this situation that there are different opinions in the academic circles about its origin, and there are different theories such as Xianbei, or Wuhuan, or Sushen, or Ding Ling, or a family of its own.
It is also said that it was a northward resident of "Fengwei" who originally lived in the Central Plains before the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.
Whether it is the Khitan or the Murowei, it took a long time to integrate before they became the two major tribes now.
Li Jing knows very well that the inferior nature of nomads is to fight back.
When you are stronger than them, they will become your loyal dogs, ready to listen to your orders and launch fierce attacks on their prey.
When you are weak, you will be their prey, and they will bare their fangs at you and tear you to pieces.
For example, Wuhu Chaohua, which is known as the end of the Han people, is the best embodiment.
If you want to tame these vicious dogs, you need not only turnips and sticks, but also a chain to lock them so that they will not turn against their masters.
Two hours later, Li Jing's royal car arrived at Cuiwei Palace.
Cuiwei Palace is one of the famous royal palaces of the Tang Dynasty, located in the south of Chang'an, at the northern foot of the Qinling Mountains, southeast of Qinghua Mountain, at the foot of Cuiwei Mountain, with an altitude of 1568 meters.
In that year, Yan Liben, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, presided over the construction of the palace for Taizong's summer vacation, after the completion, Emperor Taizong was here to take refuge in the summer and deal with the government.
The environment here is good, it is indeed suitable for escaping the heat and relaxing, and the breeze is blowing, which makes Li Jing's bad mood a little improved.
Li Jing's royal car came to Jinhua Gate, the main gate of Cuiwei Palace, and Zuo Yu Lin Wei, who came here in advance, immediately came to participate in the security work.
One or two thousand heavily armed forbidden troops were enough to ensure Li Jing's safety.
Li Jing sat in the Luan car, lifted the corner of the curtain, and looked at the main entrance of the palace in front of him.
Contrary to Li Jing's expectations, Jinhuamen was not as brilliant as he imagined, but gave people a heavy feeling.
The eunuchs who were in charge of the management of Cuiwei Palace and the maids who cleaned the palace all lined up inside the door to welcome Li Jing's arrival.
Looking at this scene, Li Jing couldn't help but sigh.
This is the evil feudal emperor, and there are hundreds of people here to maintain and clean a palace, waiting for the emperor to move in.
Only the emperor can choose a place to build a luxurious palace at will, whether it is used for summer or other purposes.
After all, the whole world belongs to the emperor, and the emperor is also the person who owns the most real estate and the largest scale in the world.
"Welcome to the saints!"
Li Jing got out of the car, and the eunuch and the palace maid knelt on the ground, welcoming the arrival of the new master of Cuiwei Palace!
Li Jing walked into Cuiwei Palace and came to Cuiwei Palace, which was the place where Emperor Taizong received ministers and dealt with court affairs.
The place where the Son of Heaven sleeps is called the Hall of Wind.
In the end, Emperor Taizong died in this Hanfeng Palace, and Emperor Gaozong ascended the throne.
Now even Emperor Gaozong is gone.
History is sometimes so embarrassing.
Some people died, but not completely......
