Chapter 962: Those who rebel against the army will be beheaded! Those who rebel against the country will be punished!
Beginning with Detective Li Yuanfang, Chapter 979: A Day in the Life of the Emperor Xianyu "My daughter-in-law pays my respects to my mother!" "My grandson pays his regards to the imperial grandmother!"
"You are pregnant, so you really don't need to come to salute every day. Just let the prince come... Grandma will hold you!"
Seeing Queen Li Qingzhao coming in holding the prince's little hand, Queen Mother Li first greeted her daughter-in-law and then happily hugged her grandson.
When she found the prince sitting quietly in her arms, she kissed the child's little face again and again.
Li Qingzhao raised the corner of his mouth slightly: "This kid is very clever. Several gentlemen have a headache with him. That is to say, he is the most honest every time he attends his father's class."
The prince blinked his eyes, very well-behaved.
Compared with the struggles of other royal families, the atmosphere in the Dayan royal family is undoubtedly excellent now. After the emperor ascended the throne, he decreed the title of queen and prince.
Although this person was destined to be the prince since he was named the crown prince. After all, the eldest son's position in the East Palace can stabilize people's hearts. However, in the eyes of the ministers, it is still too early.
Because children are prone to die young.
Generally, they are at least three years old, and most of them are stable until they are five years old. However, the princes of Zhao and Song were not stable in their teens, and their deaths made the officials cry loudly. The only ones in history with a large family of descendants made the Jin people laugh.
However, Li Yan was so confident in his son's physique that on the day he ascended the throne, after returning to the palace, he honored Lin Yuanjing as the Supreme Emperor, Li Shi as the Supreme Empress, named Li Qingzhao the Queen, and the Crown Prince as the Crown Prince.
Naturally, the ministers did not dare to object, and gradually they discovered that this man was indeed very healthy. His body was far stronger than his peers, and it seemed that only the Xiangzhou peasant boy mentioned by Dr. Gongsun could be compared to him. There was no need to worry about early death due to illness.
Now that the queen is pregnant again, it is obviously a good thing to expand the family's thin population, but ministers still often write letters to advise on the selection of concubines.
Regarding the courtiers' urging for the harem, Queen Mother Li expressed her emotional stability. It was very difficult for her to urge a marriage back then. You still want to choose a concubine? Save your energy...
As long as there is a queen, the queen gives birth to a legitimate son, and whether there are concubines or not, it has no impact on the country. There are examples before.
But it is precisely that example that is more worrying.
The founding emperor of the Sui Dynasty, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty Yang Jian, and Queen Dugu Jialuo.
Dugu Jialuo fought hard and gave birth to five sons and five daughters for Yang Jian. With the help of a tyrannical family background, he dominated the harem and was extremely powerful. However, due to his personal likes and dislikes, he urged Yang Jian to depose his eldest son Yang Yong and let Yang Guang ascend the throne. Finally,
The people of the world were in dire straits, and the Second Emperor of the Sui Dynasty died.
This was also Dugu Jialuo's biggest black spot, and he was criticized by later generations for being "good at pampering and transferring his direct descendants, overthrowing the sect."
Although Yang Guang behaved respectfully and kindly when he was the prince, and could not predict the future, she was indeed a strong advocate of abolishing the elders and establishing younger ones. If Yang Yong were to succeed, he would be a mediocre prince at best. With such a strong family fortune in the Sui Dynasty,
If there is really no death, if Dugu Jialuo doesn’t take the blame, who will?
Having learned from the past mistakes, the Yan Dynasty was so strong, and the ministers were really afraid of repeating the mistakes of the Sui Dynasty.
Queen Li Qingzhao is very virtuous, and the family power was determined to be a bully before the marriage and was defeated. However, what the courtiers want to prevent is the occurrence of extreme situations, so they still advise His Majesty to accept the concubine.
Take a look at the beauties out there. Wouldn’t it be better to have more choices?
At the same time, they are also trying their best to teach the prince, and various courses have been arranged.
At this time, Queen Mother Li asked curiously: "Which gentleman's class do you like?"
The prince said without hesitation: "I like my father and mother to teach me!"
Li's great joy: "You are so clever and always say good things!"
The prince said: "My father knows the most, and my mother speaks the most eloquently. Other gentlemen cannot compare with them."
This serious child's words made the two most noble women in the world smile. The sound of footsteps was heard, and Lin Yuanjing walked in. He also smiled and said: "What are you so happy about? Come, come to Grandpa Huang!"
The prince left Li's arms and came to Lin Yuanjing. He picked him up and weighed him in his arms: "Okay! He will grow taller and stronger. He will practice martial arts well in the future, haha!"
When Mrs. Li saw this person in casual clothes, she felt a little displeased and snorted softly.
Li Qingzhao stood up to say hello and secretly wondered why the Supreme Emperor was dressed like this.
Lin Yuanjing looked at his wife's face and was a little embarrassed. He put the prince down and rubbed his grandson's face.
Head: "Listen to your parents and study hard!"
The prince said oh, watched his grandfather go out, ran to his grandmother and asked: "Royal grandmother, is your grandfather going to practice shooting?"
Mrs. Li paused: "I couldn't stop myself, so I went to Taipu Temple to watch the horses..."
Li Qingming realized that he was not going to Taipus Temple, but to the racecourse. He said secretly: "I heard that there was a huge crowd of people there and it was very lively. I didn't expect that the emperor would go out in casual clothes to watch the horse racing..."
Since Li Yan ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, the imperial institution has become more and more complete. After the Six Ministries, the status of the Nine Temples has also become more and more important.
But the names are still the same, but the functions are different.
For example, Taichang Temple, which was busy with the Ministry of Rites for the enthronement ceremony, later became responsible for the etiquette of the royal ancestral temple, while the Ministry of Rites focused on imperial examinations and ordinary etiquette.
Such as Zongzheng Temple, which manages the affairs of the emperor's clan;
For example, Guanglu Temple manages the catering tent and audits palace expenses;
For example, Dali Temple reviews criminal and prison cases handled by the Ministry of Punishment and Yushitai;
For example, Weiwei Temple manages imperial guard matters;
For example, Honglu Temple manages Buddhist and Taoist religious affairs;
For example, Sinong Temple manages agricultural production and innovates fertilizers and agricultural tools;
For example, Taifu Temple manages business and trade and establishes a chamber of commerce to supervise;
The last Taipu Temple is responsible for managing horse administration.
The functions and powers of the Nine Temples actually overlapped a lot with those of the Six Ministries, so most of the Nine Temples in history ended up being in name only and merged into the Six Ministries.
Now, Yan Ting's nine temples are more like nine special departments. Their work is not as complex as other departments, they are extremely specialized, and they also select special talents.
For example, everyone in the government and the public knows that His Majesty attaches great importance to horse administration at this stage.
It is well known that the Song Dynasty Ma Zheng pulled his hips. After all, the huge Central Plains dynasty was known to have an army of one million, but in the end it only had 10,000 cavalry, and the majority of them were Tibetan people who had surrendered from the Xixia border. It was simply a joke.
But the reason known to later generations was that there was no suitable land for raising horses, which was obviously too one-sided.
The Central Plains is vast and covers an area of thousands of miles. The territory of the Song Dynasty is indeed far smaller than that of the Tang Dynasty, but what is lost in the core area is the four counties of Yanyun and Hexi. These two areas are indeed excellent horse breeding land, but even if this area is lost,
The two areas are not as big as China, which cannot raise horses.
When Zhao Kuangyin paid attention to horse administration, horse farms were established in Zhejiang, Fujian, Jiangxi and other places in the south. They were not as good as those of the best quality horse farms, but they spent a lot of effort and did not lose too much. In the early Song Dynasty, various places cultivated horse farms.
Many horses of excellent quality.
It can be seen that geographical location had an impact on the Mazheng affairs of the Northern Song Dynasty, but it was by no means a key factor.
In terms of system, Zhao Kuangyin also established a very complete horse administration system, with Taipu Temple, Qunhu Division, Tea Horse Division and other institutions for unified management.
The Taipu Temple is in charge of the horses used by the royal family, the Group Animal Husbandry Department is in charge of the breeding and local transfer of horses, and the Tea Horse Department is in charge of the horse market, and then handles the sick and old horses.
From the data point of view, the two dynasties of Zhao Kuangyin and Zhao Guangyi were the period of vigorous development of pastoral supervision in the Northern Song Dynasty. By the time of Zhenzong Dazhong Xiangfu, the number and scale of pastoral supervision in the country had surpassed the Northern Song Dynasty in terms of the area of pasture land and the number of horses.
Quite impressive.
Since it is the best, then it will continue to decline, and "officials and horses will not be prosperous". The reasons are multi-faceted, including natural disasters, interest disputes, farmers and herdsmen competing for land, financial crises, and peace after the Chanyuan Alliance.
Short-sightedness and complex factors from all aspects constitute the "abolition of prison".
Any system is difficult to establish and would be too easy to abandon. However, horse administration was poor and the annual number of horses could not keep up. Officials in the Northern Song Dynasty proposed the idea of "controlling riding by foot".
Once this evasion method of turning into defense came out, it was bound to be a vicious circle, which completely ruined the horse administration of the Northern Song Dynasty. During the period of Shenzong of the Song Dynasty, there were still about 100,000 horses in the Northern Song Dynasty. Although the quality was uneven, there was still that number after all. By the time of Huizong,
In the North Korea, the number of war horses was 1,800. In fact, they all relied on buying them from abroad, and they did not raise them at all...
There was no such strategic barrier as the Yanyun Sixteenth Prefecture, and the cavalry was so neglected. It is no wonder that the Jin army galloped in when they came in, and it was like being in an uninhabited land in the huge Central Plains dynasty.
In this world, Ma Zheng was also the biggest mess caused by the Song Dynasty before Dayan took over. The previous Liaodong War
In the battle, the shortcomings of the Yan army's lack of light cavalry were also clearly reflected, and they relied entirely on heavy armored soldiers and heavy armored cavalry to support them.
But if we want to completely destroy the Jin Kingdom, this point must be changed.
We don't expect the Yan cavalry to surpass the Jin cavalry in one leap, but we can't just sit back and watch being overtaken by a large margin, which will become a weakness that the opponent will crazily target.
Therefore, after Taipu Temple became the most popular department among the nine temples where talents gathered, a sport from the Tang Dynasty was picked up again, and the imperial court vigorously promoted it.
Chasing.
Also known as "horse racing", the most familiar horse racing is naturally a side event of polo.
At present, it is not possible to hold large-scale polo matches and small-scale horse racing. It happens that people in the Song Dynasty were too gambling. Now, Yan Ting has improved a lot of social atmosphere, but it only has difficulties in gambling.
After all, it is unrealistic to completely ban this thing, and it is not feasible to let it go unchecked, so the imperial court tried it. Currently, a Chizhu Chamber of Commerce has been established, under the management of Taifu Temple.
Lin Yuanjing led the guards and rode out of the palace, then out of the city through the east gate. After walking for more than 20 miles, a huge field came into view in front of him.
Not only the racecourse, but also the restaurants, shops, and railings surrounding the venue looked like a tile market. However, the soaring sound coming from the center of the venue was unmatched by any tile market.
The Supreme Emperor was not in a hurry and waited quietly for a moment before walking in through the side door.
A wave of heat hit me, and the frenzied sound of people instantly flooded the private conversation space.
