Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

The young man in Tsing Yi rolled his eyes and said, "I understand who you are talking about! Jiang Yumei! Right? She is an assassin sent by Yuan Nanjian, and was caught by Guo Ye during the assassination. Later, this girl was bestowed by His Majesty Guo Ye, the two are still close by skin."

"Your words are even more unreliable. The relationship between Jiang Yumei and King Donghua was ruthless. Afterwards, Guo Ye sent her out of Chang'an City. Later, this woman found an opportunity to sneak away and disappeared."

"It's not her..." The young man in Tsing Yi frowned and said, "You don't mean the queen of Tianzhu, Lagashuri, do you?"

Mr. Liu chuckled lightly and said, "How is that possible? The Queen of Tianzhu, Rajashili, Fuyu Guoyu Nuannuan, Khitan Xiaodan, Xi Clan Suzhi, Dachen Kingdom's Yu Wenqian, and Silla's Queen Zhende None of that counts."

The young man in Tsing Yi said: "Sir, did you slip your tongue? The Queen of Silla is Kinderman, known as Queen Seondeok. How do you call her Queen Zhendeok?"

"Of course I didn't make a slip of the tongue. My little brother, you have forgotten. When Guo Ye broke the siege of Jincheng, there was a beautiful woman named Jin Shengman who wanted to have a child with him. After Jin Deman died, this girl inherited The throne of Silla, known as Queen Zhendeok. She is the biological mother of Silla King Kim Cheon-hwa."

The young man in Tsing Yi said: "When it comes to having a child, I think of another person. The talented woman in Chang'an City, You Ji, the editor-in-chief of the weekly magazine "Datang Entertainment Weekly", once said that she wanted an illegitimate child, and then..."

Mr. Liu rolled his eyes and said, "Everyone is a man, what do you think? Do you even need to ask?"

"No... I mean, if that child exists, now..."

Mr. Liu said: "You can ask this question in private. Why do you ask me? Could it be that you want my Dongcheng Library to close down?"

The young man in Tsing Yi slapped his head and said, "I'm being reckless. With King Donghua's care, this son must be Guan Yunheng..."

"You said it!"

"Okay, I won't talk about him. Let's talk about another matter. You also mentioned Yu Wenqian of the Great Chen Kingdom just now. He and King Donghua had a good time together. Will they have children?"

Mr. Liu shook his head and said, "I'm not too sure about this. But I think the princes of the Great Chen Kingdom also came to the Tang Dynasty when Wan Guo came to court. I looked from a distance, and it seemed that this person was similar to King Donghua. very similar."

The young man in Tsing Yi said: "Then it's almost inseparable. Hey, by the way, who is this thirteen beauties? I guessed almost all the women mentioned in your book, why are they wrong?"

"Because you still missed a key person."

"who is it?"

"Of course it is Yang Qingqing, younger sister of Liao Wang Yang Sheng."

"That's not right...Yang Qingqing and Guo Ye have a grudge against each other, how could they get married?"

Mr. Liu sighed softly, and said: "Yes, the two of them are indeed not married. Originally, Yang Qingqing had been taking the offensive against Guo Ye, and gave him the black silk on her head sewn into a sachet. Unfortunately, later... "

"how?"

"After Guo Ye left Jiannan Road, Yang Qingqing found some more evidence. He vaguely understood that Guo Ye might be his brother-killing enemy."

"and then?"

"Since then, Yang Qingqing lived in seclusion in the mountains and never married...Yonghui died in depression in 19 years. Before she died, she cut off another strand of blue silk and entrusted someone to hand it over to King Donghua. Dongwanghua After seeing Qingsi, tears flowed like a fountain."

Speaking of this, Mr. Liu read a poem: "Jinse has fifty strings for no reason, and one string and one column thinks about the Chinese New Year. Zhuang Shengxiao dreamed of butterflies, Wangdi Chunxin entrusted cuckoos. There are tears in the sea and moon, and the sun is warm in Lantian. Smoke. This feeling can be regarded as a memory. It's just that I was at a loss at the time."

The young man in Tsing Yi was also quite moved when he heard this, and said: "Speaking of which, this is really a trick of good fortune. Even with King Donghua's talent and boundless power, there is always something he can't do in this world."

"Who says it's not?" Mr. Liu said: "Yang Qingqing is the only regret of King Donghua in this life, so I listed her as the No. 13 hairpin. This little brother, do you think it's appropriate?"

Chapter 2149 Shoubi Nanshan is not old pine

Today, Xinhua City, the capital of Donghua Kingdom, is really lively.The sound of gongs and drums, the sound of firecrackers, the joyous singing and the constant laughter, and the lights and festoons in every house made the whole city jubilant.

The reason for this scene is of course not because today is Zhengdan.It's still autumn, and it's still early for the Spring Festival.

It's not because of a big victory just now. After six years of hard work, the Donghua Kingdom has already occupied most of the land in North America, and the victory is set.No matter how great the victory is, it will not make the people in the country so excited.

So what day is it?

Looking up to the sky, the huge banner hanging on the hot air balloon will tell people the answer—congratulations on the centenary birthday of King Donghua.

Speaking of Donghua Wang, the old birthday star, that's really amazing.This person, Guo Mingye, was originally just a son-in-law of Dongliu Township, Longxi County, Yizhou Prefecture, Jiannan Road, Tang Dynasty. Later, with the help of his father-in-law's family, he entered the county government as a servant.

Ever since he entered the officialdom, Guo Ye has been in trouble. It is Jin Lin who is a dragon that changes when things in the pool meet.Since then, he has been on the rise, and in just a few years, he became an extremely human minister, and he was officially named Shangshu Youpu Shejue and King Qin.

Do you think this is the end?No, not at all, and this is just the beginning.

After helping Emperor Li Zhiping of the Tang Dynasty to destroy Baekje and annex Goguryeo, he led some people of the Tang Dynasty to travel [-] miles across the ocean and conquered a large Donghua Kingdom.

In terms of area, Donghua Kingdom is three times as large as Datang, and in terms of arable land, it is more than twice as large as Datang.More importantly, most of this place is uncivilized savages.

The title of title in this emerging country is still the fifth rank of male prince and uncle.However, the meaning of these five classes is very different from that of Datang.

In addition to salary, all titles are also given a large area of ​​land.The Duke has [-] acres, the Marquis has [-] acres, and the Earl has [-] acres.Viscount five thousand acres.Baron a thousand acres.

The citizens of the Tang Dynasty who came with him were all entrusted with various titles, even ordinary soldiers have the honor of a baron.

This is nothing, it is just several times more land than Datang's title.The biggest difference in Donghua's title is the right to participate in and discuss state affairs.

The entire Donghua is divided into ninety-nine and 81 states, eight hundred prefectures, and three thousand counties.All magistrates are elected by one person, one vote.

Although the governor of the state capital was appointed by King Donghua, if it arouses public anger, as long as more than half of the Lords object, he can be impeached.The king of Donghua must dismiss this person and choose another capable person.

As for the central decision-making, King Donghua could not make a complete decision.In the House of Duke and Marquis, if half of the members object, this decision cannot be implemented.

The so-called king of Donghua and the knight share the world.

Everyone understands that what King Donghua brings to everyone is not just the wealth and honor of the first life, but the security of food and clothing for dozens or even a hundred generations of descendants.

The first is land. Don’t forget that the root causes of the so-called change of dynasty are all population growth and insufficient land.In the end, the poor had no food and clothing and were forced to rebel.

Now that such a large piece of land has been taken by everyone, how many Tang people have migrated here?Less than a million.Even if the natives are added, it is only 500 million people.

No matter how the common people can live, it will take 500 years if they want to achieve a situation where there are too many people and too little land.

Then there is the superiority of the system.The system of Donghua Kingdom is to let the knights, big and small, rest with the country, which fully guarantees everyone's rights.

Of course, this doesn't mean that Donghua has to raise a group of social parasites.

The state stipulates that only the eldest son can inherit the title, and others can only obtain titles through meritorious deeds.

As for the land bestowed by the state, it can only be inherited for five consecutive generations.After five generations, the number is reduced by half every generation.Even if he is the eldest son, he has to work hard if he doesn't want to lose face to his lord.

Everyone can understand this restriction, after all, no one wants their children and grandchildren to become idle waste.In addition, Junzi Zhize was beheaded in the fifth generation, and with a title, at least his starting point was much higher than that of ordinary people.If you are still not satisfied, it means that the human heart is not enough.

So, is it because everyone loves King Donghua so much because he gave everyone land and titles?not completely.In addition to these two points, the more important thing is that King Donghua also taught the common people in the country the knowledge taught by the immortals for free.

These studies are roughly divided into four categories: mathematics, physics, chemistry, and medicine, plus five courses in literature, history and criminal names, agriculture, and military affairs. There are nine courses in total, which have become must-learn courses for every new Donghua citizen.

There are [-] primary schools, [-] middle schools, and [-] universities across the country to ensure the dissemination of these knowledge.

It can be said that Guo Ye is not only the king of Donghua King, but also the teacher of most Donghua people.He is also a teacher and a king, can the common people not respect him?

Therefore, all Donghua people were sincerely happy that he could live to be a hundred years old and in good health, and were also happy to hold a rather grand celebration for him.
