Chapter 427: Those who know the times are Junjie

Zhu Yijun and Liu Xian chatted for a long time, and about the new drug, Zhu Yijun said that he severely criticized the chief medical officer of the Jie Ji Hospital! And replace it with more precious herbs for treatment.

Liu Xian went to the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, and the functions of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies were replaced by the Ministry of War for a long time, but the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies has always existed, and it is a place that symbolizes the supreme ruling power of the Ming Dynasty's armed forces.

Liu Xian actually knew that the emperor was lying to him, the efficacy of that medicine, Liu Xian also asked people to inquire, it was very easy to use, but the old people were like half-grown children, they couldn't wipe their face, the emperor said that it was changed, this is a step, everyone got off the stage, and it was a good foundation for seeing a doctor.

In the end, everyone tacitly ended the performance.

The doctors of the Ming Dynasty are still trustworthy in terms of seeing a doctor, whether it is Tan Lun or Ling Yunyi, they have been taken care of very thoroughly, the Ming Revolution is changing with each passing day, Liu Xian is also willing to see more of this great river and mountain, the world he has guarded all his life is thriving, which is the greatest affirmation and relief for his life.

Liu Xian likes the current Daming very much, and he also hopes that Daming can continue to be rich and strong.

When the Chinese New Year was approaching, a fireworks and firecrackers factory outside Chaoyang Gate had a violent explosion, the ground shook the mountains, everyone in the houses outside Chaoyang Gate heard a violent roar, flying sand and stones, the fire soared into the sky, and then the Ming Beijing camp began to evacuate the people nearby, because the biggest secondary injury of the firecracker factory explosion is the fire.

The whole disaster relief process lasted a whole day before it ended, and the Shuntianfu Yamen, which had already been resting, did not need to do it this year, and all gathered in the grass hut outside the Chaoyang Gate to begin to investigate the case.

The production of fireworks and firecrackers factories in the Ming Dynasty is subject to the approval of the imperial court, and the handicraft workshop of up to 30 catties of gunpowder is in the warehouse, and 3,000 catties of gunpowder are made!

The mismanagement of the businessmen directly led to the explosion, which directly killed thirteen people, and then the fire, which led to thousands of people, were pulled up from the bed by the soldiers of the Beijing camp in the middle of the night to avoid danger, and the fire caused by the explosion caused eleven deaths, a total of twenty-four deaths, and more than one hundred and fifty injuries.

Incredible big case! God did not freeze to death in a heavy snow that had not been seen for several years, and this explosion directly killed and injured more than 170 people.

After the roar of 3,000 catties of gunpowder, on December 27, the Ming Emperor issued an order to completely ban fireworks in Beijing, and soon this ban was extended to 32 cities with a population of more than one million people, and the production of any firecracker factory was strictly regulated.

On the day when the emperor issued the holy decree, the soldiers and horses of the five cities of the Ming Dynasty began to search for firecrackers from house to house, and Zhu Yijun was not afraid that the captains would take the opportunity to rob, because the Ming horsemen followed behind, asking if the property was lost, etc., and outside the city, it was collected by the soldiers of the Beijing camp.

As His Majesty grew up, Suncheonfu gradually became a loyal Suncheonfu.

The New Year of the eighth year of Wanli is a quiet year, and Zhu Yijun is actually very accustomed to this kind of quietness, because since Emperor Wuzong lit fireworks for the New Year and lit the Qianqing Palace, the Daming Palace has completely banned fireworks for decades.

Zhu Yijun is used to this kind of quietness, but the people of the Ming Dynasty are not used to it at all, and the emperor's holy decree was naturally scolded again, scolding the court for being lenient.

Zhu Yijun didn't pay attention to the scolding, because he was paying attention to the causes and consequences of this gunpowder explosion case, obviously there was only 30 catties of gunpowder approval, this fireworks factory outside Chaoyangmen, actually hoarded 3,000 catties of gunpowder, the owner of the firecracker factory, lived in Xicheng, surnamed Chen, was taken by the officials on the same day, and the source of gunpowder in the fireworks factory was not saltpeter, but toilet ash.

This Chen Dongjia, after the Chinese New Year, will be beheaded, and there will always be someone responsible for this explosion, because the main reason for the explosion is poor management, when the open fire appeared, the guy in charge of the warehouse ran to drink, and the wine woke up after the explosion.

To be responsible for the bombing, it is either this profit-hungry proprietor, or the Shuntianfu Yamen, which is not in place to supervise, someone must be responsible, so Chen Dongjia is about to be beheaded.

The amount of gunpowder in the Wang Gong factory as high as 500,000 catties began to be gradually transferred to various small arsenals, and the gunpowder management system will be changed to prevent any hidden dangers from occurring.

This case also caused a discussion on the management of Guo Minshe outside Chaoyangmen, which is a weak area of imperial court management, and there is no special yamen to manage, the people of Caoshi are already many homeless people, and all kinds of bad incidents occur from time to time.

After urgent discussions, Tongzhou, a prefecture-level yamen, was in charge, and the Ministry of Officials would solve the problem in the future.

There is also a group of people who are unlucky, that is, the dung owners who sell toilet ashes this time, the toilet ashes are collected by them, and the toilet ashes are also sold to the firecracker workshop, this time Chen Dongjia was arrested, and the dung master was also arrested, this is really a disaster from the sky, the dung master is doing a good job, and he suffered from this great disaster.

The dung master didn't have to move his head, but he had to go to Luzon to be the dung master in the future.

Saltpeter is the raw material of gunpowder strictly managed by the imperial court, even the Laojun Mountain Nitrate Cave is a relatively secret news, and the white ash on the wall of the civil toilet does not belong to the scope of control, the explosion of the firecracker factory, immediately aroused the vigilance of the imperial court, and the dung owners of the major cities immediately fell unlucky, about the toilet ash this kind of thing, after the dung owners collected, they are not allowed to buy and sell hoarding privately, they must be sold to the yamen, transported to the ordnance supervision to concentrate on the production of gunpowder, violators, according to the private possession of firearms, armor is punished.

The booming and lively explosion case, which lasted for half a month, finally stopped, and the Ming Dynasty woke up from the atmosphere of the New Year, and the imperial court ended the rest on the fifth day of the first month, and the sixth day of the first month began to be officially ordered.

The plan of the day lies in the morning, the plan of the year lies in the spring, the spring of the Ming Dynasty is coming, and the new year has begun.

On the sixth day of the first month of the ninth year of Wanli, the first court meeting of the Ming Dynasty was staged day after day again, Zhu Yiyi, the king of Lu, did not participate, every 369, he would rest, not to participate in the court meeting, he made up his mind, he was the life of pleasure, and wanted him to be a donkey in the mill, don't even think about it!

"Good news, on the third day of the first month, Concubine Ran Shu Pi Zhao Shuhui, bow cautiously, give birth to the emperor's heir, give the name Zhu Changchao, look up to the queen mother's mercy, the concubine is virtuous, I hope that in the future, I will cultivate virtue and self-reliance, and I will be in harmony with the palace, and I will serve it diligently and carefully, and continue to extend the heir." Feng Bao first announced a piece of good news.

The expected date of delivery is in December, in the first month of the ninth year of Wanli, the child is only five pounds and seven taels, the mother and child are safe, because it is a man, so the queen mother specially issued a decree to enter the court, and the subjects to enjoy together.

The weight of this child is not even as good as that of her sister Zhu Xuanyuan, and the Empress Dowager Li was a little worried that she would die, so she made a decree that there were two more silver coins in the Pepsi box, which was regarded as taking advantage of the fortune of the court to prevent disasters for the child.

Empress Dowager Li really likes children, Concubine Zhou De is eight years older than the emperor, just gave birth to a princess, and she was approved by Empress Dowager Li.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Daming." Zhang Juzheng said in unison with his ministers.

Zhu Yijun found a strange thing, obviously there was no rehearsal, but this kind of congratulatory speech can always be so neat, everyone is an old fritter, and they all know what kind of words to say on what occasion, so there will be this kind of neatness.

This is a very fortunate thing, the Ming Dynasty experienced the only son of Xiaozong, the heir of Wuzong, the Jiajing Emperor side branch into the Dazong, the eight sons of the Taoist only one left, and the Longqing Emperor only left two sons, the Ming royal family's heirs finally prospered!

"Zhang Daban has already taken the Pepsi box and sent it to the yamen, which is considered to be the same joy, after the Ming Duke goes down to the court, remember to receive it." Zhu Yijun waved his hand and signaled everyone to be exempt.

"The Queen Mother came to Wenyuan Pavilion yesterday, saying that she wanted to take two more concubines for Her Majesty, according to the old system of Jiajing, it is true that the four concubines and nine concubines will be supplemented, what does the Ministry of Rites think?" Zhang Juzheng looked at Wan Shihe, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites.

"Since there are ancestors who have made the law, it should be so." Wan Shihe has no objections, Your Majesty is not robbing the people's daughters, the reproduction of the great sect is a major event in itself, the Longqing Emperor accepted so many concubines, and no one said anything, the Ming Dynasty is not prosperous, and the Ming Dynasty is really unbearable.

After the first heir of the Ming Dynasty inherited the throne, the second heir had to live in Beijing for a long time and wait until the prince grew up to become a vassal.

For example, after Zhu Zhanji ascended the throne, Zhu Zhandong, the king of Xiang, Zhu Zhanjun, the king of Zheng, and Xuande became a vassal in four years; For example, after Zhu Qizhen ascended the throne, Zhu Qiyu, the king of servants, lived until the fourteenth year of orthodoxy and became the emperor after the civil and heavenly changes; For example, after Wanli Emperor Zhu Yijun inherited the throne, his younger brother Zhu Yijun lived in Beijing for nearly 20 years, and did not become a vassal until the 17th year of Wanli; For example, Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters, has been living in Beijing, the emperor of the Apocalypse is the heir, and the brother is the last brother.

This is to prevent the turmoil in the court brought about by the fierce conflict of the emperor, and the uncle of the Ming Emperor likes to rebel, and he also needs brothers to work together.

In the emperor's vocation, there is the item of reproducing children, whether they die young or not, they must have more children, and it is much better to have an heir than not to have one.

The reason why Empress Dowager Li has this edict is also related to the recent shortage of people in the palace.

Recently, only Queen Wang has been bed, Concubine Zhou De, who gave birth in October, recovered after accepting the old mother's postpartum recovery, and Concubine Ran Shu was in confinement.

Concubine Liu Mengshu and Concubine Li Jin of the harem, the two side concubines who entered the palace at the wedding, have no official titles, are not pregnant, and are not favored.

The reason for not being favored is also simple, Zhu Yijun really doesn't like the cold posture on them, it's not that they are holding a shelf, they don't know how to serve people at this age, and Concubine Liu likes poetry, and she has to chant poems every time, while Concubine Li likes music, she has to play and sing every time, in order to please the emperor, if she wants to fully show her shining points, the more she likes to show, but Zhu Yijun is not very good at these two aspects, so she is more and more out of tune.

Concubine Liu and Concubine Li also had no one to guide them, so they didn't know what to do, Zhu Yijun also chatted with them specifically, but with little effect, the two of them still couldn't let go, the two of them were not allowed to be saints, the more cautious they were, the more they couldn't let go, and if they couldn't let go, they couldn't get the saints, the more careful they were, and in the end they all became an unsolvable loop.

Zhu Yijun thought about it and didn't object, nodded and said, "Then do what my mother said." ”

Concubine Liu, Concubine Li, and Zhu Yijun are all very young, and they have to meet every month anyway, and there are still opportunities.

"Huaiyi King Tuman Khan in the name of Bao Tu, on the play of Shu Ding into the court tribute, a total of 27 people permanently live in Beijing, the remaining 300 cowardly Xue guards into Beijing after the transfer of Tartar officials, placed in Shandong Zhubei Wei Wei Office, play Shu Yan, thank Your Majesty for the grace of the iron pot, but also said something about Wang Cifu... Cuss. Zhang Juzheng took out a book of notes, looked at Wang Chonggu, and handed them to Wang Chonggu first.

Wang Chonggu frowned and watched the recital, his face calmed down, what did he think! Just this little thing, you still want to bring him down Wang Cifu?!

He handed it to Feng Bao and said, "Your Majesty has known about this for a long time. ”

Tuman Khan's real name is Bao Tumen, changed his name to Bao Tu, and there are only twenty-seven people who live in Beijing permanently, which are his brothers and nephews, and the number is not much.

Since Zhu Yuanzhang began to Longqing five years before he was crowned king and opened up the border trade, the Ming Dynasty imposed a two-hundred-year trade embargo on the grassland, which directly led to the food processing capacity of the grassland returning to the Stone Age, and the iron pot is the top luxury of the grassland, and it is reluctant to throw it away if it is broken.

It is said: The raw pot is destroyed, and it is used to make up for the leakage, and it is not allowed to be fed on the skin and stored in water.

Altan Khan once asked Zhao Quan, a Han in the twentieth year, that after the victory of my ancestor Zamuhe in the Battle of the Thirteen Wings, he used dozens of cauldrons to boil the captured hostile nobles to death, but is this true? Zhao Quan said: inevitably.

Altan Khan asked again: Why don't I, the Great Khan, have so many great calamities? And what about using more leather pots?

Use all kinds of leather goods to hold water, burn the stones red and throw them into the water, throw the meat into the water, and eat them half-cooked and boiled, this is the leather pot of the grassland.

It was not until I answered that I broke through the defense line of Yanshan with my bravery, and fought with the Ming Dynasty for more than 20 years, and finally I answered and bowed my head to the courtiers, in exchange for the opening of the trade of Bianfang Gong City, it was considered to have an iron pot, but with the influx of iron pots, salt, cloth, tea and other things, there were also usury of Jin merchants.

Misfortune and blessing are relied upon, and blessing and misfortune are lurking.

Tuman Khan cried about the crimes of the Jin merchants in the song! It's just that he doesn't act like a person at all.

The usury of the Jin merchants made the grassland chicken feathers, from top to bottom, from the prince to the ordinary herdsmen, everyone was anxious and in debt, Altan Khan was the king of Shunyi, and the barbarian Khan was the king of Huaiyi, and the left and right wings of the Great Khan tossed that money every year, which was only enough to repay the debt, and the per capita culture of the Beiyu was low, and the Jin merchant creditors said how much was how much, they themselves did not understand, and the abacus of Mr. Bookkeeper made people tremble.

Originally, I borrowed money based on my ability, why should I pay it back! These northern captives are people who grow on horseback, and if I can't afford it, I won't pay it back!

But with the Ming Dynasty Zhenwu, the Ming Emperor has been beating hard, the Jin merchants are fake tigers, dogs are powerful, and they can't move at every turn: When my heavenly soldiers arrive, I will sue the general and other crimes!

The Great Khan can only force 10,000 households to pay back, 10,000 households to force 1,000 households to pay back, and thousands of households force the herdsmen to pay back, and the tribe that does not pay back, the border trade controlled by the Jin merchants will not be sold to your tribe, and your tribe can only go to other tribes to change hands.

The whole grassland was tossed in such a way that it was amputated below the eyebrows.

And the most excessive are those Datong mothers-in-law!

Datong mother-in-law is a Xuanfu, Datong prostitutes, often those who are sick, will go to the grassland with the caravan to earn the last money, which is equivalent to a biochemical mother, poison on the grassland, and the Ming Dynasty has been in conflict for two hundred years in the north, that has seen the Central Plains flower work, even if they know that there will be problems, they will go to play, which leads to many people getting sick and extremely weak.

Tuman Khan counted the crimes of the Jin Party in the song, Wang Chonggu did not panic at all, the Jin Party and Jin Shang did these things that had children without assholes, His Majesty was clear, after Zhang Siwei's death, Wang Chonggu asked His Majesty if he continued to do this, because the third lady also went to the court to complain, accusing the Jin Merchants of evil deeds.

The emperor's answer was no.

His Majesty is the lord of all peoples, and he is admired by billions of people, and he does not prohibit it, that is, he allows it, and even secretly promotes it.

The surrender of this barbarian khan is not only a military threat, but also the gradual increase of economic and centrifugal forces, plus Altan Khan is the first traitor of the golden family, and he is a native of the times!

Zhu Yijun shook his head and said: "Hu Lu has no luck for a hundred years, this kind of whole clan is designed around one or two geniuses, the biggest problem is that it cannot be systematized at all, producing high-level talents, improving productivity, and the speed of corruption and decay is unimaginable for the Central Plains Dynasty." ”

Was Genghis Khan strong? Of course it is strong, after the death of Genghis Khan, Tuolei and Meng Ge were very strong, but not strong enough, so they were all scattered.

The reason why Tuman Khan emphasized the leather pot is because the cow dung used in the grassland is used as fuel, and the cow dung burns stones and throws it into the leather pot to cook food and eat, while the reason why the grassland does not use ceramic clay pots is because they often migrate, and these fragile items are inconvenient to carry.

Zhu Yijun is good at empathy, this way of thinking is not possessed by natural nobles, for example, Zhu Yijun can't learn this way of thinking.

"Tuman Khan also said one thing in the song, is that there are too many displaced people near the lama temple, resulting in this plague, more than half of them died, Tuman Khan listed several ills of the grassland, hoping that the imperial court can solve these things after he pays tribute, of course, depending on the meaning of Tuman Khan, after entering Beijing, it is estimated that he will ignore it and live his life with peace of mind." Zhang Juzheng expressed his opinion.

This is the last confession of the transfer of power, this is his last voice for the grassland, and the affairs of the grassland after that have nothing to do with him Baotu.

"When the Tuman Khan entered the court to pay tribute, how did Altan Khan react?" Zhu Yijun asked with a solemn face.

Tan Lun, the secretary of the military department, opened his mouth and said: "Altan Khan has not reacted at all. ”

Altan Khan didn't want to stop it, he was scolded as a traitor to the steppe every day, in the end, you barbarian Khan voted faster, Altan Khan was powerless to stop it, it costs money to fight, and it costs money to fight in the steppe, and the money is in the hands of the three ladies.

With the Ming Zhenwu, the Northern Captives have been unable to loot the Ming Dynasty, and the use of force is to find death for Altan Khan, and the robbers are always like this, once they can't loot enough goods, they will be infighting.

"Then continue to prepare for the Tuman Khan's entry into Beijing to pay tribute." Zhu Yijun made instructions, for many problems in the grassland, the Ming Dynasty will not make major changes until the Altan Khan is completely solved, yes, the grassland is very bitter, and the Ming princes are clear, but this hard day, the border people will continue until the main contradiction is resolved.

"Your Majesty." Wang Chonggu bowed his head and said, Your Majesty's meaning is very clear, the Jin Party and Jin Merchants continue to release money in the grassland, and the Ming Dynasty will collect debts with arms.

The head of the household department, Situ Guoguang, took out the book and said: "Your Majesty, Sun Kehong, the general manager of the Songjiang Ocean Trading Company, and Sun Keyi, the envoy of Nagasaki City, have made a statement on the development of the Yuanxu Islands. ”

"First, the herders of Antu, after opening up plantations, should teach them how to grow, especially rice, palm and sugar cane."

"Second, the salt field dries salt, and the island eats marine fish to replenish salt, but most of the marine fish are fish oil, and they are mostly transported to China, so they should be salted."

"Third, expand the fleet, the country of a thousand islands in the Yuanxu Islands, with more spices and suitable for planting, and you can harvest as much as you sow, so that you can work together."

"Fourth, Huimin Pharmacy, firstly, to make profits, sell medicines for good profits, and secondly, to avoid the early death of Tufan slaves."

"Fifth, the revitalization of culture and education, Fanyi has no words and no language, this development should be revitalized and educated, conform to the Ming Dynasty, and educate into Yuan Xuxing."

"Sixth, move the Han people widely, and encourage the Han people to go to the Yuanxu Islands, so as to settle the world and establish the Yuanxu Gangchang."

"Seventh, send more ships to explore, more gold, silver and copper overseas, more fields, and merchant ships are profit-oriented."

Wang Guoguang explained in detail the reasons for these seven articles, such as Huimin Pharmacy, according to the exploration of merchant ships in the Yuanxu Islands, the Yuanxu natives basically died in their twenties, and some even lived less than twenty years old, and there were obviously more than ten years of time to work, so it was wasted, so get more medicine to let the natives live a little longer, and make enough contributions to the expansion of the plantation.

"No, I remember what I said at the beginning, I wanted to rob, it was because the businessmen were profit-seeking, so they were allowed to rob, are they going to build now?" Zhu Yijun listened to the seven pioneering things, and felt that something was wrong everywhere, it was obviously a robbery at sea, and as soon as these seven things came out, the smell of robbery immediately faded.

"Sun Shang always said that it was to make money." Wang Guoguang said with great certainty: "He is quite discerning, and there is still a difference between a full meal and a full meal." ”

Each of these seven is for long-term peace and stability, and it seems that the early investment is large, but the benefits are calculated in hundreds or even hundreds of years, especially in the case of plantation slaves are eunuchs, these lands, after hundreds of years, are the Ming Dynasty since ancient times.

Zhu Yijun is keenly aware that Daming's overseas development is different from Taixi's overseas development, everyone is cannibalistic, and no one is nobler than others, but Daming will give the natives a way to live.

"Let him try it first, and if it works, use it more." Zhu Yijun thought about it, but he still approved these seven.

The development trend of the ocean trading house made Zhu Yijun feel a little surprised, they seem to retain a trace of the pride of the Celestial Empire, and they are not very willing to do that kind of desperate business, this kind of development is beneficial to the Ming Dynasty, because the Ming Dynasty needs more food.

Hai Rui took out a notebook, did not speak, but handed it to Feng Bao, all the Ming dukes should not have seen it, everyone knows what is said in it, the imperial historians of the Ming Dynasty are scolding the emperor again.

Zhu Yijun looked at it a few times, picked up the zhu pen and said, "I accepted the criticism of the official. ”

The officials scolded the emperor, scolded more tactfully, first a flattering fart, said that under the leadership of His Majesty, the Ming Dynasty has achieved how and how to make achievements, and then the conversation turned around, and said lightly: The things of the Ming Dynasty are not enough, and they are used by the border people.

Chen Zeming, the superintendent of the imperial history, mentioned that in the winter of the twentieth year of Jiajing, the heavy snow did not melt five feet, three snows in a row, the well ice and the ground mirror, many people froze to death, there were zombies on the road, only one county in Changping, hundreds of people were frozen and killed, from the harem and the palaces of the kings, the people died of freezing and hunger three or four days, and the people had few clothes and short salaries, so they should take care of the heads of the Qian, and not show favor to the wolf ambitions.

The heavy snow in the winter of Jiajing 20 years, even the palace maids in the palace have frozen to death, mainly because of the lack of warm clothes, in the poor coolie home of the grass market outside the city, the clothes are mostly filled with reeds and thatch to keep out the cold, and it is also said that these are very poor quality cold things, quilts and cotton clothes are valuable belongings, poor people's homes, most of the families only have one or two pants, carry firewood very far, coal salary is extremely expensive, most have never cooked soup to eat, and only eat cold vegetables for many years.

This imperial history is not to gain fame and criticize the emperor, it is to go deep into the houses outside the Chaoyang Gate, and only write the note after the in-depth visit, he is an official, enters the people's house, and the female dependents of the family are lying in bed and do not welcome, ask the reason, only to know that there are no pants, only two cotton pants at home, see him as a big official, he will be bare-legged, the weather is too cold.

Chen Zeming believes that His Majesty should not give so much of the hundreds of thousands of cotton items given to the outside of the Saiwai, and this year there is a lot of snow and no one has frozen to death, but if there are three heavy snowfalls in a row and there is no savings, how can I give relief? It is not possible to ignore the savings just because the imperial court is now making a profit.

Zhu Yijun took out a small part of the cotton and gave it to the border people, and did not give away all the cotton stored in Jingtang, the border problem must be solved, otherwise under the military disaster, the same life will be ruined, Chen Zeming's problem looks similar to that of later generations, some people can't eat enough, why do they want to engage in atomic bombs, aerospace, etc., but this is not the case.

The premise of Chen Zeming's remarks is that he is visiting the people in depth, thinking from the perspective of the people as the state, and he hopes that the emperor will care about the lives of the poor coolies, not to oppose the Ming Dynasty's kingization of the northern captives, let alone oppose the emperor.

This is the fundamental difference, there is research and practice to discuss the problem, not to oppose for the sake of opposition, this is what a bachelor should do, to look at the problem based on facts, it is worth encouraging.

If I step on Zhu Yijun, His Majesty the Great Emperor, to gain fame, Zhu Yijun will let the cheap Confucian know that my sword is not disadvantageous.

But if it goes deep into the people and the people are the foundation of the state, Zhu Yijun is very willing to accept criticism.

In this world, after all, one person's wisdom is short, and everyone's wisdom is long.
