Anu was very unconvinced and took a hoe to dig out the mounds of soil and dig ditches, while his cousin Saren buried the sweet potato vines in the ditch.
Women from other Mongolian tribes also worked in pairs. Empress Zhang looked at this scene helplessly.
"Since Your Majesty allows them to stay, they must be properly disciplined, otherwise there will be no peace in this harem."
"You are the Lord of the Sixth Palace. You are responsible for establishing the rules in this palace." The queen said with a headache.
"How can I have the energy now that I'm pregnant? I still have to accompany the fourth and fifth princesses, and I have to take care of the eldest princess and the ninth prince. Besides, look at their savage looks, I can't control them."
"The barbarians don't know etiquette, so let's start with etiquette. I'll find some female officials to teach them Chinese etiquette and rules, from hairstyles to clothing, to Mandarin, they all have to learn." The queen smiled,
"I feel that Mrs. Wang is quite suitable to teach them. If they are dissatisfied, they will be defeated directly. I heard that Mrs. Wang is good at riding and shooting, and is also good at boxing." In fact, many people know about Wang Sangyu's current relationship with the emperor.
As the daughter-in-law and widow of Liu Chongxun, Chongzhen's first assistant, Wang Sangyu had also become a monk. This kind of relationship was not allowed to occur, but the Liu family did not say much. Wang Xiangjin, the old patriarch of the Wang family in Xincheng, also expressed his support for her choice.
Wang Sangyu was willing, and the emperor liked her. However, Wang Sangyu did not enter the palace, and she did not ask for a title. Her current status was a bit like the emperor's wife. Empress Zhang knew about it, but she didn't care.
She has nothing to do without entering the palace.
"When you say this, it does seem possible. I will try it later and let Sangyu use the method of military training to discipline them. After they have entered the palace, what about Oirat, Khalkha, Chahar, Horqin, this one?
Ministry, our rules in the Central Plains are to obey your father at home and your husband when you get married. Now that we have arrived in the Ming Dynasty, they are now my Zhu Yihai’s women, so they must follow the rules of the Ming Dynasty. If they mess up, they will be dealt with according to the family law!" The queen looked at the group of people.
The Mongolian woman, although reluctant, still suggested to the emperor,
"Actually, regardless of Mongolians, Koreans, Jurchens, or Hans, they are all women. If Your Majesty really wants to stabilize them, it's as simple as letting them have children, and they will never do this again."
"Women still have to bind their feet. If you are afraid of pain, you can bind them less, so that your big feet won't run around." Zhu Yihai saw that the queen took the opportunity to bring up this issue again, and quickly interrupted her.
"There is no room for negotiation on this matter. I have told you a long time ago, and I have also told all the royal family members that the Zhu family will never allow foot binding in the future. No matter how much or how little, it doesn't matter. A good pair of feet
, wrap whatever you want, do you have to torture it to become disabled and deformed?" Zhu Yihai will never bind his daughter's feet, no matter how much they are bound.
He had also made a decree to the royal family long ago. The old Zhu family was not allowed to pester anyone anymore since the first year of Shaotian. The girls who had been pestered before were not allowed to be pestered anymore, and those born in the future were not allowed to be pestered at all.
Anyone who dares to bind the feet of a woman in the family will be severely punished. The clan members will have their titles and salaries taken away from them, and the royal family members will also have to stop the rations for young and old.
Last year, it was extended to the families of distinguished officials and scholars. Anyone who binds the feet of a female member of the family will be severely punished. In serious cases, he will be expelled from his family, seize his official position, or even be exiled to Taiwan.
The bad habit of foot-binding started in the Song Dynasty and became more and more popular in the Ming Dynasty. Especially the bureaucrats and officials became more and more particular about foot-binding, to the point where girls from wealthy families could not get married without foot-binding.
They use their little feet to distinguish their clans and classes. Even the Tatars can't stand this kind of behavior. When the Tatars first entered the customs, they issued an order to shave their heads and prohibited the women of the Eight Banners from binding their feet. If they were found, they would be severely punished.
This year Zhu Yihai plans to issue an edict banning footbinding for everyone everywhere. Footbinding and waistbanding are actually quite abnormal behaviors, and those who are good and natural must be tortured to become deformed.
Women in Europe used whale baleen to make waistbands and forcibly distorted their waists. However, scholar-bureaucrats in the Song and Ming Dynasties had their daughters beaten from a young age and began to bind their feet.
Even later in the Manchu and Qing dynasties, the entanglement became more and more serious, until the bones were broken and curled, and a pair of feet was entangled to the length of a hand, making it impossible to walk. It was hard to become disabled, which was a lifelong matter.
Empress Zhang actually had her feet bound, and she was a small one, but she didn't break the bones and fold up the soles of the feet and bind them so hard, but the feet were indeed very small. Anyway, Zhu Yihai didn't think that these little feet of size 323 were just that.
Nothing looks better than size 367.
He also forbade Empress Zhang to have ideas about the little princesses. Empress Zhang was a little frightened by the emperor's stern expression. She had always been a little afraid of this husband. They had been married for several years, and sometimes she felt that she was being aggrieved by the empress.
Zhu Yihai saw that her face was not good, so he took her hand and stroked it.
"Okay, I shouldn't say it so harshly, but some concepts really need to be changed. It's not a good thing to not go out without taking a second step, let alone the feet that are so tight. You are pregnant now.
, I am heavy, I will ask Concubine Chen and Ruan Bin to help you take care of the affairs of the harem. These Mongolian barbaric women, I will arrange them to the palace in the suburbs first, let Sang Yu lead some female officials, and teach them etiquette and Mandarin.
, I will make noise in the palace every day and affect you." The emperor's gentle tone made Empress Zhang couldn't help but be moved, and she couldn't help but shed tears.
It was a busy day. Miyata had already planted all that, including sweet potatoes, corn, soybeans, fruits, etc. Although Anu and the others came from the grasslands and were strong, they had never dug soil or planted in the ground, so they were busy wielding hoes.
After a day, everyone was exhausted.
Zhu Yihai did not let them return to the palace that day, but directly moved them to the palace. He also called Wang Sangyu and Zeng Ying's Qiang wife Dong Qiongying. Dong Qiongying was also a famous chieftain girl who was brave and capable of fighting.
The female battalion rescued Zeng Ying and later got married. She still led a barbarian female battalion to assist Zeng Ying in defeating Zhang Xianzhong. Now she is also with Zeng Ying in Beijing.
Zhu Yihai had previously planned to train some female soldiers to replace eunuchs. Castration of eunuchs would take a lifetime, and female soldiers could be like palace maids. After serving for a few years, they could get married and have children.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! In the evening, Zhu Yihai specially called Anu to his room. Anu looked a little listless and very tired.
"Sit down, I heard that your father, the Chechen Khan, was married to Batur Hutai Jizhi. At that time, both of their wives were pregnant. Later, you and Sengge were born?"
"Your Majesty, can you speak Mongolian?" Anu was a little surprised.
"Only by knowing the enemy can you win a hundred battles. When I was a young general of Lu Fan, in addition to studying the Four Books and Five Classics on the art of war and tactics, I also learned the languages and writings of Mongolia, Hou Jin, Korea, Japan, and even Spain and England. It originated from you.
I like the heroic epic "Janggar" by Vala very much. I like the tribal leader Jianggar, the red lion Honggur, the wise star Atantzeki and other grassland heroes in this epic very much. Anu
Of course, I have also learned about Jianger. This is a heroic epic that originated in Oirat and has been spread throughout Mongolia for hundreds of years. It tells the story of twelve lion generals and thousands of warriors headed by Jianger.
The story of Baomoba’s arduous struggle against evil forces and final victory while defending his hometown. As a rap narrative poem, it has been circulated among the Oirat Mongolians for hundreds of years, and finally spread to all Mongolian tribes. By this time, its content has continued to expand.
It has increased to nearly 100,000 lines. When the Torgut people, one of the four tribes of Oirat, went to settle in the lower reaches of the Volga River decades ago, they also brought this epic to the north shore of the Caspian Sea and spread it to Europe. This epic is of great significance to Mongolia
People, especially the Oirat Mongols, are like the Romance of the Three Kingdoms or historical records in the Central Plains, which are very popular. Anu has liked the stories of the warriors in them since he was a child. Zhu Yihai saw that she didn't seem to believe it, so he talked to her in Mongolian
When we chatted about Jiang Geli's story, he was indeed familiar with it, and when he told it to Anu, he also used the same tone and rhythm as Teacher Tian Fang told about the Sui and Tang Dynasties, familiar stories, and different telling methods.
Anu cried in this foreign country. As she listened, she couldn't help but stand up and start singing and dancing. Jianger is a grassland epic. The mode of communication is singing, without specific words, just oral.
It is passed down by word of mouth, and it is even said that because it is too long, few people can finish singing it. Anu has a very good voice.
"There is no decay, no death, everything is evergreen, and the people there are always as strong as twenty-five-year-old youths. In Baomuba, the cold winter is as warm as spring, and the hot summer is as cool as autumn. Lonely people come to Baomuba,
The population will prosper, and poor people will become rich and prosperous when they come to Baomuba. In Baomuba, people's wealth is balanced, and the distinction between rich and poor disappears..." in the epic
Baomuba is an ideal country, a utopia in the hearts of Mongolians.
Zhu Yihai also sang along. Anu sang and danced, and finally reached out to pull Zhu Yihai up and danced together.
A few months after arriving in the Central Plains, although there are cousins here, other Oirat tribesmen, and even maids and slaves brought by my own tribe, this place is so incompatible with the grassland, especially being imprisoned in that small palace.
It made her feel even more uncomfortable.
She missed her hometown and the grassland every day. There was no happy day. But tonight, for the first time, she felt that the strange emperor's husband was strange yet familiar at the same time.
Singing and dancing, when the love became stronger, Anu took the initiative to hug Zhu Yihai and kissed him... The summer morning sun shone directly into the room through the window. Zhu Yihai woke up and found Anu
He propped his head on his hands and looked at him keenly.
"You've been awake for a long time?"
"Well, you are sleeping like a baby."
"I sang and danced with you last night, and I struggled for a long time at the end. I was really tired." Zhu Yihai admired Anu's good physical strength.
Zhu Yihai wanted to get up, but Anu hugged him.
"You are my Jiang Geer."
"If I don't get up, I will miss the morning court." Although Zhu Yihai had already changed the morning court time from five or six in the morning to eight o'clock in the morning, so that the court ministers would have to get up in the middle of the night to go to court every day, but he himself did not
I remember it so early.
But looking at the sun now, if there is any further delay, we will not be able to make it to the early morning meeting at Chenzheng (eight o'clock).
"I will go to the morning court first. When you are free, you can write a letter to your father, Orqitu Chechen Khan, and tell him that the blunderbuss, gunpowder, and artillery that I promised to sell to him are all ready, but we need
Pick it up yourself. Ask him, should he go to Xining next to Qinghai to pick it up, or should we send him to Jiayu Pass in Gansu?"
"My suggestion is that he come to Xining to extract it. The Yarkand Khanate has not been peaceful recently. The Hami Guards and other places of the original Seven Guards of Guanxi in the Ming Dynasty have been fighting. Previously, businessmen from the Ming Dynasty were robbed in Kansai after leaving the customs. These
If the firearms are difficult to pass through, it is better to come to Xining via Qinghai to extract them." Zhu Yihai said that the founder of the Yarkand Khanate, Said Sultan, was a descendant of Chagatai and the third brother of Eastern Chagatai Khan Mansu Khan.
Its capital is in Yarkand (Yarkand), hence its name.
This is a Crescent religious regime established by the Mongols. It has a history of more than 100 years. It originally governed the six cities of Kashgar, Kashgar, Yarkand, Khotan, Yingisha, Aksu, and Wush. But in its heyday, it was
Including Turpan, Yanqi and Nalgana, their strength is quite strong.
A few decades ago, they defeated the Junggar tribe and recaptured the Ili Valley and Lake Balkhash, but were later defeated by the Oirat. Now they mainly control the area south of the Tianshan Mountains, and also rule Tashkent and Feir.
Ganna.
They also annexed the Turpan Khanate. Between Jiayu Pass and Turpan, in the early Ming Dynasty, seven guards including the Seven Guards of Kansai, namely the Hami Guard, were set up. However, these seven guards were actually Jibi Guards, all of whom were recruited by Mongolian princes.
The Seven Guards of Kansai is a de facto independent kingdom. The court does not send troops, officials, or taxes. It is only nominally subordinate to the Ming Dynasty.
Later, with the revival of the Chagatai Khanate, the Seven Guards of Kansai became even more out of control. In the end, the Seven Guards of Kansai were first invaded by the Turpan Khanate, and then the Turpan Khanate was annexed by Yarkant.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Many people from Qiwei moved eastward and settled in Pingliang and other areas. To the west of Jiayu Pass, there are no longer Ming Dynasty, such as Shazhou, Dunhuang, Guazhou, Yumen, etc. during the Han and Tang Dynasties
Old Xinjiang is all green.
Zhu Yihai and Anuti Yarkand were not mentioned casually at this time. When the four tribes of Oirat in Mosi came to pay tribute, Yarkant actually did not come to pay tribute, and even robbed the Ming caravan leaving the customs in Kansai.
,goods.
In Mirayin on the other side of Hexi, Ding Guodong sent an envoy to the Yarkand Khanate, but the envoy he sent was actually killed!
Hexi was originally controlled by Milayin, Ding Guodong and other foreign towns. They were native officials of the Hui tribe. They surrendered to Shun and surrendered to the Qing Dynasty. Later, they returned to the Ming Dynasty and had constant contacts with the Yarkand Khanate. Now Yarkand
However, they intercepted trade routes, attacked and killed merchants, and even beheaded envoys. In the final analysis, it was mainly because Mongolia in Oirat Mosque had contacts with the Ming Dynasty and started trade.
Yarkand has been a country for more than a hundred years, and has been fighting with Oirat for more than a hundred years. Now, Yili has been robbed by Junggar again. Yarkant is very dissatisfied, especially after hearing that Oirat purchased firearms from the Ming Dynasty.
, so he sent troops to intercept Kansai.
Zhu Yihai had nothing to do with the fight between Oirat and Yerqiang, but they started it together with the Ming Dynasty, so Zhu Yihai naturally couldn't bear it.
It's just that now he doesn't even officially control Hexi and Gansu, and Mirayin and others are just outside the vassal town, so Zhu Yihai plans to use trade and arms as bait to unite the Heshuote, Junggar and other tribes in Oirat, and then let him
Milayin and others in Hexi also cooperated appropriately and fought against Yarkant.
If the fight is good, the Seven Guards of Kansai can be taken back by then. If the fight is not good, there will not be much loss. If the battle between Oirat and Yarkand is provoked, the two powerful neighbors will fight, and you can also sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight.
weaken their strength.
