This is especially true in Borneo. The climate here is different from that of the Central Plains. There are no four seasons, only two seasons, divided into dry season and rainy season. People generally sow seeds in the rainy season and harvest in the dry season. Some islands are hot and rainy all year round, with lush vegetation.
In the rainforest, you can sow seeds at any time and harvest in all seasons.
In a sense, this place is much better than some bitter and cold places.
Speaking of the rule of Borneo, it can actually be traced back to the time when Taoism was the last master, that is, the era before Confucianism was the only one. It was only lost one after another later. If Da Qi mainly opened up the territory of the Western Regions, then Da Wei
Mainly restored the territory of Borneo, such as the famous Sanxuan and Liuwei.
As we all know, the concept of states in Wei and Daxuan should actually refer to the Xuanzheng Envoys Division, under which are the Fu and the counties. In addition to the Fu and counties, there are also the Tusi, which is equivalent to the Fu, that is, the Xuanwei Division and the Xuanfu Division.
.
During the reign of Emperor Taizong of the Wei Dynasty, the Wei Dynasty invaded Borneo and established a state here, with fifty-six prefectures and 210 counties under its jurisdiction. It must be said that Emperor Taizong of the Wei Dynasty was a talented and ambitious man, and this move was not simply to show force.
Instead, it corresponds to its naval fleet, making it a base for trade with ships from Western countries.
It's a pity that the local officials at that time were incompetent and stupid, and they wanted to amass money and were cruel and unkind, which aroused large-scale resistance in Borneo and caused internal fighting among each other, causing the situation to completely get out of control. Coupled with the incompetence of their descendants, the father and son Renzong and Xuanzong of the Wei Dynasty used benevolent governance
In the name of the Wei Dynasty, he finally gave up his rule over Borneo and allowed many chieftain forces to establish independent countries and became vassal states of the Wei Dynasty. The Wei Dynasty no longer directly ruled Borneo. This move greatly damaged the prestige of the central court and dealt a heavy blow to the Wei Dynasty.
The imperial court's prestige in the Nanyang region shook the Wei Ting's status as a suzerain. Not only did the Wei Dynasty lose Nanyang, but it also seriously blocked the communication channels between the Central Plains and the West.
During the Daxuan period, with the support of the Taoist sect, the Daxuan court returned to Borneo. However, at this time, Borneo had been independent for a long time, had lost its people's hearts, and was quite hostile. However, the countries in Borneo were also afraid of Daxuan's force, and they all
To express surrender, and because the main energy of the Daxuan court was in the north, they did not start a war and directly recover Borneo. Instead, they established the Nanting Protectorate here, mainly stationing troops in several important seaports to control the strait.
, to ensure that Nanyang's throat is in its own hands.
The Daxuan imperial court had a total of three major Protectorate's Palaces, namely the Nanting Protectorate's Palace, the Beiting Protectorate's Palace, and the Xizhou Protectorate's Palace.
Among them, there is no need to mention the Xizhou Protectorate. The Beiting Protectorate mainly refers to the part of the northern territory that was captured by the Golden Horde. After the Daxuan court recovered it, it was difficult to establish prefectures and counties because these areas were vast and sparsely populated.
So it was ruled directly by the army, and it was called the Beiting Protectorate.
According to the original idea of the Daxuan court, there were four court Protectorate's Palaces, which were divided into four directions and guarded the four directions. In addition to the South Courtyard and the North Courtyard, there were also the East Courtyard Protectorate to rule Fenglinzhou, and the West Courtyard Protectorate to rule Fenglinzhou.
Western Region. Only after Xizhou was established as a state, the Xiting Protectorate was renamed Xizhou Protectorate. Due to various reasons in Fenglinzhou, in order to avoid intensifying conflicts, the Taoist sect decided to rule without governing. Prime Minister Toyotomi served as a pawn and implemented Japanese rule.
Japanese, or it is called using Japanese to control Japanese, so the Dongting Protectorate was finally abolished.
The Nanting Protectorate is different from the Xizhou Protectorate. Unless there is a large-scale rebellion or invasion by foreign enemies, it generally will not directly intervene in the internal affairs of Borneo.
At the level of the imperial court, Daxuan did not directly rule Borneo, but at the level of the Taoist sect, the Taoist sect directly brought Borneo under its control and established the Borneo Taoist Palace.
The Borneo Taoist Government has always adhered to the philosophy of Taoism and will not interfere too much in specific political affairs, leaving a certain amount of space for the local small court.
Nowadays, the most powerful country among the Borneo kingdoms is called Dayu. At first glance, it sounds the same as Daxuan, and it seems to be a unified dynasty. In fact, the so-called Dayu Dynasty wants to submit to the emperor Daxuan, the lord of the Celestial Dynasty.
He made a request for canonization, and then Emperor Daxuan canonized him as a king, which was lower than the emperor and equal to a prince. He was one of the many vassal states of Daxuan.
The Borneo Taoist Prefecture was established in Thang Long, the capital of Dayu Kingdom.
A flying boat passed over Borneo and headed towards Thang Long Palace.
Qi Xuansu looked at the green color below through the window of the flying boat. Everything was growing crazily, and there was a vibrant scene everywhere.
Qi Xuansu couldn't help but recall the first time he took a flying boat. Many people were crowded together, and there were about a hundred passengers alone. This time, he was riding a flying boat, but it was his exclusive flying boat.
At this time, Thang Long City is already in sight.
At this time, opposite Qi Xuansu, Yao Shu, the chief deputy hall master of Ziweitang, sat.
Of course, it is impossible for Master Donghua to send Qi Xuansu to his post in person - that would be too instigating and would cause unnecessary reactions from all parties. Maybe the next day there will be rumors that Qi Xuansu is actually the illegitimate son of Master Donghua.
However, in order to show his importance, Master Donghua sent the second person in Ziweitang, and at the same time
He was also Yao Shu, who was born in the Yao family.
Judging from the seniority of the Yao family, Yao Shu is Yao Pei's uncle, and he happens to be the same generation as Qi Xuansu. The two are still brothers, and Qi Xuansu calls him eldest brother.
Judging from the seniority of the Taoist sect, Yao Shu is a disciple of the seventh generation and can be regarded as the predecessor of Qi Xuansu.
The key point is that the two are still colleagues, but Qi Xuansu didn't spend much time in Ziwei Hall, so he didn't have much interaction with the chief deputy hall master.
The two of them got along quite well along the way. Yao Shu joked, "Recently, there have been a series of personnel changes in the Taoist sect. I have no time to spare. I just sent Master Zhang to Jiangnan Daofu some time ago, and then I will send you, Master Qi, to go there."
Borneo Taoist Government, I'm afraid there will be new errands waiting for me after I go back."
Qi Xuansu said, "In normal times, as Chief Yao, I don't have to go out for several months. This is just like the slack time and busy farming, and now is the busy farming season."
"That's true." Yao Shu agreed with Qi Xuansu's statement. .??.
Soon, the flying boat began to slowly descend.
There is a green lake below, named Guijian Lake. It is said that before the uprising of the Dayu Kingdom, the founder of the Yu Kingdom accidentally got a sword blade with the word "Shuntian" engraved on it. Later, he picked up a sword hilt and spelled it out.
Together they became a divine sword. He used this sword to defeat many armies of the Wei Dynasty, and later became king. While taking a boat on the lake, he suddenly saw a golden turtle emerging from the water, swimming to the side of the boat, and said to him, "The enemy is the enemy."
The army has been defeated. Please return my sword to me." After saying this, the sword on King Dayu's waist suddenly shook and fell into the mouth of the golden turtle. The turtle then dived to the bottom of the lake with the sword in his mouth. King Dayu and his officials were very surprised.
, thought it was a god appearing, and called the golden turtle the divine golden turtle. In order to express respect for the golden turtle, the name of the lake was changed to Guijian Lake. Later, it was said that the sword was returned by the immortal and inserted in the lake, with the hilt left on the water.
It forms a small pagoda in the center of the lake.
Today, Guijian Lake has become a port where flying boats take off and land.
People from the Borneo Province got the news early and were already at the lake to greet him.
The leader is Chen Shuhua, the chief deputy governor of the Borneo Taoist Palace, and there are several other deputy governors.
After putting down the gangway, Yao Shu appeared first, followed by Qi Xuansu.
Chen Shuhua first met with Yao Shu and then met with Qi Xuansu.
Qi Xuansu secretly looked at this future colleague. She was a female Taoist priest, about thirty or forty years old. Her appearance was naturally good, but she was not as dignified and majestic as Master Cihang, and her demeanor was slightly feminine.
Zhang Yuelu's eyes are red and phoenix, thin but not small, black and white are distinct, the black eyes are hidden inside but not exposed, the ends of the eyes are smooth and slightly upturned, and the width is just right, showing a bit of sharpness and majesty.
If it is too long and narrow, it will become a fox eye. As the name suggests, it is like the eyes of a fox, less sharp and majestic, and more sinister and gentle.
This chief deputy palace master was born with a pair of fox eyes, which left a deep impression on Qi Xuansu.
The structure of the Taoist palace is like a triangle. The highest corner is naturally the head, and the two corners at the bottom are the chief and the second. Now Qi Xuansu is the second, not the chief's subordinate, but more like the chief's check or opponent.
If Qi Xuansu went to the post alone, or was accompanied by other deputy hall masters, then it was unlikely that Chen Shuhua would be the one to greet him at this time, and it was probably just other deputy hall masters. But because of the arrival of Yao Shu, the chief deputy hall master, the entire specification
It suddenly improved a lot. It can be seen from this that although Master Donghua did not come in person, his thoughts have already arrived.
As for the great master in charge, Lan Hexu, and the master in charge, Wang Jiaohe, were welcomed at the Sheji Palace of Borneo Taoist Prefecture.
The Sheji Palace was originally the Confucian Temple of the Dayu Kingdom. It was not only a place to worship the Confucian saints, but also the highest institution of learning. However, after the Taoist sect took over the world, the imperial court of the Dayu Kingdom took the initiative to transform the Confucian Temple into a Taoist palace without even asking the Taoist sect to please the Taoist sect.
, I hope Daomen will not directly regain Borneo.
Of course, the Taoist clan and the Daxuan court would not give up directly regaining Borneo just because of a Taoist palace. They only allowed Borneo to remain a vassal state because of insufficient foundation, difficulty in governance, excessive financial burden, and the tendency to cause conflicts.
status, and the Sheji Palace, which was converted from a Confucian Temple, was accepted by the Taoist sect and became the seat of the Taoist government in Borneo.
The motorcade arrived in front of the Sheji Palace, and the two people standing at the front were the Grand Master and the Master.
Again, Qi Xuansu's identity is not enough for a great master Pingzhang and a great master Shenzhi to come out to welcome him in person. Apart from Yao Shu's reasons, it is now widely rumored that Qi Xuansu is bringing "
"The task" was mainly to sort out certain factions that existed within the Borneo Taoist government.
Don't underestimate the word "combing". This is just a euphemistic term within the Taoist sect. If you really understand it as purging, there is no problem. I don't know how many people will be killed.
In a sense, Qi Xuansu is the imperial envoy sent by the higher authorities. He represents not only himself, but also Jinque. Naturally, the Borneo Taoist government must treat him seriously.
