Yunxi was in a good mood when he returned: although the environment in Gongyuan was not very good, all the invigilators, including the ordinary officers, performed their duties, and Yunxi was very satisfied with this.
However, not long after the carriage drove out, Yun Xi's mood was completely ruined. He had raised the curtain and looked casually on the street, when he suddenly saw several people who looked like beggars lying on the ground in front of a merchant, as if
What else are you singing?
The owner of the merchant came out with a sad face, seemed to have said something to them, and handed them a small beggar. The beggar in charge shook his head, threw the package on the ground, and started singing again. A man wearing a five-city soldier uniform
The man in horse uniforms walked past the door of the merchant, but he didn't seem to see what happened.
Yunxi's mood immediately deteriorated, but he didn't show it on the surface. It wasn't until the carriage arrived at Xihua Gate and he got out of the car that he asked Li Bo and other guards: "Are the beggars in the capital so rampant now?"
Some people feel strange about Yunxi's nonsense words, but Li Bo doesn't. When Li Bo was guarding Yunxi, he listened in all directions and looked in all directions, and he also noticed what Yunxi said.
After listening to Yunxi's words, he considered it and said: "Your Majesty, most of these beggars have no relatives, and they don't care about anything except their lives. Singing the Lotus Falling at the door of the merchants is not enough to banish them or behead them, so they are not afraid at all."
"If ordinary households were to be beaten severely by their masters, there would be nothing they could do; but these merchants are open to do business, so they cannot beat people at will, even if they let Yingtian Mansion, two Fuguo County or Wucheng soldiers and horses
The beggars are not afraid even if the company's officers take them into prison and lock them up for a few days: they can't starve to death in a prison, they have to take care of their food, and for these beggars it's not much worse than on the street."
"But once these beggars come out, they will intensify their troubles in front of your house and make it impossible for you to do business. No one can bear this. In the end, the merchants will have to spend money to eliminate the trouble."
"Can't you just let the officers keep them in jail?" Yunxi asked again.
"Your Majesty, although maintaining law and order on the streets is also one of the jobs of the police officers, such things are trivial after all. Officials from Yingtian Mansion, the two Fuguo counties, and the Wucheng Army and Horses Division cannot take it into consideration, so they will
If you are slack, you usually don't care; if you let them take care of it, these merchants will not be free." Li Bo knew that after his words came out, the servants in the capital would be unlucky, and even the officials would be
A few were taken down: But he did not dare to tell lies, so he could only talk about things that were not too serious.
"I'm afraid it's not just a matter of slacking off. The evil forces in the capital, such as the beggar's 'big bones', and the gangsters on the streets, are all colluding with these servants in the capital. Officials are slaves, and the servants are all
Made of iron." Yunxi said to himself, but this sentence was not heard by Li Bo and others.
Yunxi then said to Li Bo and the others: "What I just said to you is not allowed to be told to anyone else."
Li Bo and others agreed. Although they were from the capital, military households and civilian households were in two separate systems. They had nothing to do with these officials, so they would not risk losing their official positions or revealing the truth.

When Yunxi returned to Qianqing Palace, the fourth auxiliary officers did not ask him where he had just been when they saw him coming back. They just handed over the memorial they had drafted.
The afternoon after Yunxi was spent in criticizing and answering memorials.
When it was time to get off work, there was nothing major going on today, and Yunxi would not let them stay and let them get off work on time.
According to seniority ranking, Xie Jin, as the winter auxiliary officer and the auxiliary officer recently, was the last one to bid farewell to Yunxi.
Yunxi suddenly remembered something and said to Xie Jin: "Xie Aiqing, how is the writing of "Yuan History" recently?"
Xie Jin said: "Your Majesty, although the "History of the Yuan Dynasty" compiled by the scholars of the Song Dynasty was a bit rough, it was generally comprehensive, so the revision of the "History of the Yuan Dynasty" went smoothly. The chronicles and biographies have been compiled to the end of the Yuan Dynasty, and the chronicles and tables have not yet been compiled. Rebuild.”
Yunxi actually wanted to exclude the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties from one of the historical dynasties of China by revising his history. The reason is easy to find: in all dynasties, even Li Tang, who was of Xianbei Hu ethnic origin, never treated the people of the country separately, but the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties By blatantly dividing people into four classes, does this mean that we think we are the country of China?
However, the "History of the Yuan Dynasty" revised during the Zhu Yuanzhang period has recognized the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty as a dynasty of China. Yunxi could revise many of Zhu Yuanzhang's policies, but directly and completely violate them. Therefore, all Yunxi can do is revise the "History of the Yuan Dynasty" When he arrived, he asked Xie Jin to write down all the bad things Meng Yuan had done.
Yunxi asked at this time: "A while ago, were you re-editing Chahan Timur and expanding the biography of Timur?"
"Yes." Xie Jin replied.
"I heard that the river where Timur was born was in trouble. There are rumors that Timur's father was a Han, not a Mongolian. Is this true or false?" Yunxi was a little curious about this question.
"Your Majesty, this is just a rumor. I carefully searched various records of the Yuan Dynasty and finally determined that Princess Han of Qin, and King Kuo Kuo of Yuanhe, the father of Timur was Taiwei Saiyin Chidahu of the Yuan Dynasty, Mongol Boyetai clan , are undoubtedly Mongolians. However, their ancestors have been living in Henan since the Mongol Khan Mongke pacified the river disaster, so they changed their surname to Wang for convenience."
"On the contrary, his mother's family, Fo'er, is a Man clan, a Semu people who originally lived in the Western Regions, and is not a Mongolian. Even because Kuokou Timur is the adopted son of Chahan Timur, he is not considered a Mongolian. They should be regarded as Semu people, not Han people."
"That's it." Yunxi said. He suddenly remembered that Zhu Shanglie's eyes were not pure black, but brown, which was indeed a typical mixed-race feature.
Yunxi thought again and said: "In that case, let's restore the surname of Princess Qin Han's Boyetai and write a new biography for her."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Xie Jin bowed and agreed.
Yunxi also learned more about the current compilation situation of "Yuan History" in detail, rewarded Jin for a while, and let him go.
It was almost dark at this time, but Yunxi did not go to the harem. Instead, he called his guards over, gave a few instructions, and asked Wang Xi to go to Kunning Palace to deliver a message that he would have dinner at Qianqing Palace tonight. I stayed in Qianqing Palace and took out a book to read.
Not long after, a man who looked to be less than thirty years old, quite handsome, and dressed in the uniform of a hereditary military commander came in. When he saw Yunxi, he bowed and said, "Your Majesty, Xue Xiyang, has met you."
