Chapter 62 Yang Guang@Liu Bang: Are you afraid?
Chapter 62 Yang Guang @Liu Bang Are you afraid?
The tenth year of Zhenguan was an extraordinary year. Empress Changsun's illness had just stabilized for a while and could be seriously ill at any time.
This made Emperor Taizong of Tang worry enough, but he didn't expect that something big happened in the Tang Dynasty.
This is the major disease that occurred in the decade of Zhenguan in history.
Even though Zhang Hao and others came to the Tang Dynasty, they did not change the trajectory of this disease, and it still happened.
It is recorded in history that in the tenth year of Zhenguan (636 AD), "hedong disease was found in Guannei".
The disease epidemic occurred in Guannei Road (the west of Hangu Pass, including Chang'an, and the Shanyu Protectorate), and the Hedong Road (the east of the Yellow River). At that time, the country was divided into ten roads, and this disease epidemic covered more than 20% of the land and population.
Emperor Taizong of Tang was worried and "ordered medical treatment to treat it" and ordered the dispatch of medical officials in the court to bring medical supplies to various prefectures and counties to treat infected people.
Hua Tuo took the initiative to ask for orders to check the epidemic situation and let Sun Simiao stay in Chang'an City.
Emperor Taizong of Tang approved it, but they were not at ease when they both left Emperor Taizong of Tang. After all, Empress Changsun needs one of them to be at ease.
Moreover, Hua Tuo is no worse than Sun Simiao, so it is enough to go with him, not to mention that Sun Simiao is over 70 years old, so it will be troublesome if he is infected with the disease.
"The Sun family, Sun Hao, is worthy of being my loyal minister!"
The Sun family, especially Zhang Hao, performed well in the process of dealing with the disease, which made Emperor Taizong of Tang praise him.
The Sun family used industrial relations networks from various places to collect needed medicinal materials and send them to the epidemic ward, and at the same time took out a lot of money and grain to help these people who were affected.
He contributed his efforts to help the court deal with this epidemic.
The manpower, material resources, money and food used are so large that it is shocking.
At this time, many people realized that the Sun family had become a giant and had a very good reputation!
With the help of the Sun family and the rapid action of the court, the epidemic was quickly brought under control.
After the epidemic was over, in order to commend the Sun family's efforts, Emperor Taizong of Tang gave the Marquis Zhang Hao.
In addition to Chongzhen, the Sun family had two marquises. In addition, Yue Fei is now an earl and Li Bai is a viscount.
Four of the six brothers of the Sun family have titles!
Zhang Hao was given a marquis and married Princess Nanping, which made him suddenly become the leader of the Sun family, covering up the marquis Chongzhen.
Before we knew it, the Sun family's wealth, status and power could be compared with those of the big families, and the Sun family was even better in terms of wealth.
This made many aristocratic families jealous, but the Sun family is not easy to mess with now because the emperor favors them.
Now that Emperor Taizong of Tang has stabilized his status, the Tang Dynasty has begun to prosper, and the people are at peace, it is impossible for aristocratic families to oust Emperor Taizong of Tang to step down.
"Not only the emperor favors the Sun family, but also the crown prince is very close to the Sun family!"
"I think the prince will continue to pay attention to the Sun family in the future. The Sun family's status may not be lower than that of the Changsun family in the future."
"Yes! It's difficult to compete with the Sun family, so we'd better strive for cooperation. While the Sun family has not yet grown completely, we still have the opportunity to cooperate with the Sun family!"
"Oh! The emperor is deliberately using the Sun family to suppress our aristocratic families!"
"We had a lot of confrontation with the emperor at the beginning, but what's the use? Now the emperor is stable and difficult to shake. We can only compromise."
"Hmph, this world is still from our aristocratic family, and his Li family is also from aristocratic family!"
"What's the use of saying this? He, Li Shimin, is not Yang Guang, and he will not give us the chance to overthrow him. He has a good idea to win people's hearts."
During the Zhenguan period, the more peaceful the Tang Dynasty was, the richer the richer Li Shimin's status was, and the more difficult it was for many aristocratic families to feel at ease, just because the emperor had always thought about weakening the power of aristocratic families, how could they sit and wait for death?
If it weren't for peace in the world, if it were a time when the people were living in poverty, aristocratic families would have long since risen against Emperor Taizong of Tang.
But even so, the aristocratic families have the strength to compete with Emperor Taizong of Tang.
For example, most of the officials in the court came from aristocratic families. They could influence the court's policies and gather momentum to compete with the emperor.
However, Emperor Taizong of Tang knew how to win over a group of people and suppress them. Among the aristocratic families, there were also those who supported the Li family. Emperor Taizong of Tang also won over other aristocratic families through marriage.
This kind of power game cannot be ended in a short period of time and cannot be solved in one or two generations.
The poor family replaces the aristocratic family and wait for the poor family to grow stronger. Now the poor family in the Tang Dynasty is too weak and it is difficult to compete with the aristocratic family and it takes time to grow.
The Sun family is now a new rich man and may develop into a new aristocratic family in the future.
Even if it develops into a new family, it is still a new family that the royal family needs, otherwise it will be suppressed.
Zhang Hao and the other six knew about these things, but standing with Emperor Taizong of Tang is more conducive to the development of the Sun family. In the future, when the emperor hates the Sun family, the Sun family will not stand with him.
To put it bluntly, the Sun family and the emperor are still related to interests.
If you are useful to the emperor, he will value you and spoil you.
While the emperor favored the Sun family, Zhang Hao and the others worked hard to grow and grow.
If you have to be so strong that the emperor dares not act rashly when he wants to deal with the Sun family!
According to historical development, Emperor Taizong of Tang still had more than ten years to live, and after his death, he was likely to succeed to Ying Zheng (Li Chengqian).
In the history chat group, Ying Zheng may have a great chance of cooperating with Zhang Hao and others in the future, but no one can fully guarantee it.
If you are killed, you will be really dead, just like the dead Wei Zhongxian.
Therefore, the most reliable thing is yourself, and it is enough to make a blacksmith or to be strong!
As the Sun family's money house continues to grow, the money gathered becomes larger and larger, which gives the Sun family an opportunity to grow in all aspects.
All industries can be fully deployed.
In addition to the existing industries, Zhang Hao brought out the flying shuttle loom and entered the weaving industry.
Another newspaper was established to publish the "Da Tang Daily" to promote it and guide some public opinion.
Due to the disease epidemic, the court attached more importance to medicine, the development and cultivation of doctors. This gave the medical school run by the Sun family and Hua Tuo an opportunity for rapid development!
Master Luban began to study steam engines and tried them based on some ideas provided by Zhang Hao.
Zhang Hao has seen the steam engine in his previous life and understands its principles, but has never tried to do it.
Therefore, it will be difficult to make the required parts at the current level of craftsmanship.
In addition, Zhang Hao is also collecting rubber and is preparing to try to make some rubber products.
The most important thing is to build the necessary industrial foundation step by step, which takes a lot of time to try and accumulate.
Zhang Hao has ideas, which can certainly shorten these work processes.
The eleventh year of Zhenguan was in Zhenguan, and this year Li Tai (Yang Guang) married Wu Zetian (Lu Zhi) as the princess.
Although Lu Zhi said in the group that it was a coincidence that he met Li Tai and the other party wanted to marry her, she agreed after thinking about it, thinking that marrying Li Tai is also good and powerful.
But when they got married, it was impossible to speculate that Li Tai might be Yang Guang. Although it was uncertain, it was very likely.
In the history chat group.
Liu Bang questioned: "Li Tai is Yang Guang, otherwise how could that poisonous woman Lu Zhi marry Li Tai? He knew that Li Tai might have competed for the throne with the First Emperor, but he would not have a good ending.
But it would be different if Li Tai was Yang Guang. What would you like to cooperate with me?"
Yang Guang @ Liu Bang said: "So what? Are you afraid?"
Yang Guang did not admit it or deny it, and asked everyone to guess.
Chapter completed!
