Bailang still established a feudal dynasty, and the production relations did not change much from those of the previous dynasty. This person's dynasty came from a conspiracy, and it should have been the same as the Song Dynasty. Due to problems, public opinion compared Shilin
Weak, the so-called "share the world with the scholar-bureaucrats", or simply imitate the Tatars and engage in literary inquisition, high-pressure and oppression for several generations.
However, Bailang did not take either path. In terms of speech, the people were almost unscrupulous and the control was very loose. However, there was no movement at all in the court. Bailang said whatever he said. Although he did not propose much, he said it every time.
Everything he said was true. From top to bottom, there was no one who dared to oppose or defy the rules.
This is the kind of authority that only the founder of the country, Emperor Wu, could possess. Bailang conquered an entire country by one man, and he achieved this level simply by using terrifying force. He was so powerful that he didn't even bother to throw dirty water on the two former emperors, and he didn't even bother to cover up his own agenda.
Although the fact that he had usurped the world could not be discussed above the court, Bai Lang directly stated that if anyone wanted to "bring order to chaos", they were welcome to come and fight.
It doesn't matter if you are not an official and say it to the people. If you don't accept it and pull up the pole to rebel against Bailang, you are welcome. However, if Bailang breaks it and kills the whole family, don't ask for mercy. "A man is responsible for his own work. It is normal to rebel and kill the whole family."
Bailang just sat high in the court, waiting for those warriors who dared to resist him.
It's a pity that there is no one.
Not only that, but his reputation is actually surprisingly good - even though this guy came here for usurpation, his reputation is now about to catch up with Li Er... First of all, he killed a large number of landlords and bureaucrats.
, which is equivalent to redistributing the land in the north and once again creating a large number of self-cultivated farmers. Then the officials and gentry were all responsible for paying the grain, eliminating most of the tax-free privileged class, and slowing down the trend of land annexation a lot.
Putting these two things together, even if Bailang was only exempted from the poll tax, the land tax and grain tax were the same as those of the previous dynasty, but he was considered to be a frivolous corvee... and he basically left everything to the cabinet.
After doing so, he was regarded as the Holy Emperor and ruled from the top... But he divided the army into the central army, county soldiers, and frontier soldiers, and reopened the concept of compulsory military service for all people to receive training during their spare time.
The situation is considered regressive.
It's just that no one dared to persuade Bai Lang. This Emperor Wu was a murderer. It was just Qiu Ba's affairs. If the emperor liked it, let him take care of it.
Anyway, the original behavior of drinking soldiers' blood is gone now, and those guys' heads have become skeletons. After the reduction, the number of soldiers is now the actual amount, and the money spent is much less in comparison. The ministers in the court
What we are most concerned about now is, White Emperor, can you find a few more beauties to stay in the harem? It is enough to come out to see everyone on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month. It is enough to convene the small court meeting of the cabinet every day. The extra time will be spent on the harem.
Children are the best.
This emperor said that he did not stay in the Forbidden City, but lived in Xiyuan. As for him from time to time summoning the late emperor's concubines from the Forbidden City to Xiyuan, everyone just pretended not to have seen this behavior. Bailang even casually sent the two of them to Xiyuan.
The late emperor is buried in an imperial mausoleum - it still belongs to the late emperor, so this kind of thing should be taken as non-existent.
The biggest instability factor in the court is not the Southern and Puppet Dynasties - that court is now divided into sections and everyone is fighting for power. It looks like the Eastern Jin Dynasty, acting like a pill. And the White Emperor of the new dynasty is an unparalleled general in the world.
After crossing the river, the puppet dynasty will probably be destroyed, and the world will be unified within five years. But the biggest problem is that the White Emperor still has no children...
This problem is too serious. The two princes have just got married. Their wives are both well-educated and beautiful official ladies. They were originally sent to the palace when the emperor chose his concubine. Unexpectedly, not only did the emperor not use
The eunuchs and even the selection of concubines have stopped. This is very embarrassing. Fortunately, there are still two princes who can marry.
The emperor Bai Lang is very contradictory to people now. This man is really on par with Ah Man and the Gao family when it comes to courting women. However, he does not extensively recruit women in the court and among the people, and even in the New Year
During the festival banquet, when the foreign wife came to the palace to see the queen, the emperor never showed up to avoid rumors. On this point, he acted very upright. When he was seen with him messing around with the late emperor's concubine, he thought they were two people.
.
Not long after their wedding, the two princes' concubines were already pregnant, and not even one in the emperor's harem was pregnant. And the marriage of the two princesses was not yet planned - with the strength of the two princesses, I am afraid that ordinary generals and disciples would not
I still can't eat enough. The two "sisters" Bailang can be said to be above average in appearance, but they were already taller than many men when they were still underage.
These two 16-year-olds are only 1.65 meters tall in Bailang's opinion, but men in this world are much shorter... I am afraid they will grow to about 1.75 meters when they become adults. In this case, it will be big
Some men are not taller than them. And their arms are very strong. In terms of martial arts alone, they are even comparable to White Leopard and Bai Biao.
Both of these two princesses are skilled with bows and horses. They look like wild girls when flying eagles and horses all day long, and they have tough tempers - these are the ones who really followed their eldest brother through the battlefield and killed many people on the battlefield.
The female general. The New Dynasty never said that the prince consort would have no future in the future. This is a bit like the Han and Tang Dynasties. So although the two princesses are in high demand, I really don't know which one to marry.
The emperor seemed to be prepared to let them choose.
The current situation in the Southern Dynasty was reported in four words: "Drunken life and dreaming of death", and after Bailang heard it, he just said one sentence, "Singing in a leaky boat, drinking heavily in a burning house, not knowing that he will drown."
It's so sad!" Those who heard it were quite surprised that the emperor actually had such a level of writing?
Three years later, the world was in great power. The annual income of the imperial court was much higher than that of the previous dynasty, and the warehouses were fully stocked with food and grass. All the armies under Bailang's command had been trained and prepared. With an edict, Bailang personally led the army south to the Yangtze River. "To punish the people and punish crimes."
! Have fun all day long!" Then Bai Lang chuckled, "With all the water in his clothes... How can I allow others to snore and sleep on the side of the bed? Hahahaha."
Then he waved his riding crop and pointed, "Cross the river!"
It is impossible to cut off the flow of the Yangtze River, and the troops brought by Bailang are not many. There are more than 500 elite cavalry and 3,000 troops, and the others are soldiers and horses belonging to the two princes and the two princesses. Over the years, Jiangbei
They have been building warships, but they haven't been able to build many in three years, not to mention they have to face the occasional raids by the navy of the Southern Dynasty.
The southern navy was rampant on the river. They did not dare to go ashore, but they could sink the Northern warships in the river. Therefore, the shipbuilding site could only park the ships in the lake, and the sluice at the mouth of the river was deployed with heavy troops, lest the Jiangnan navy would break in.
