Crown Tang emperor

Chapter 1013 Ya gifted Fei slave, long-awaited teacher

Seeing the doorman handing over Zhang Jiuling's name card, Li Tong was quite surprised.

Of course, it’s not the kind of nervousness like “going back to ancient times to copy literature, but the original author blocked me at the door, what should I do? It’s very urgent”. After all, with Zhang Jiuling’s literary status, he will always have a creative yearbook in later generations. textual research.

If "Watching the Moon and Nostalgia" is a work of his youth, he may have to worry that although it has not been officially published, there are already drafts in the pipeline.However, this poem was written in his later years when he was relegated. It is a masterpiece of his literary style. With a time span of nearly 30 years, naturally there is no collision of poetry and prose.

Since it wasn't a door-to-door visit for accountability, it was naturally a visit for fame.Li Tong also experienced a similar situation, but he didn't feel nervous, but his heart was inevitably full of evil tastes. After copying the text, he had to go out for fame and put on airs in front of the original author. This taste is too vulgar.

So after thinking about it for a while, he said that he would not see any guests tonight, and he did not intend to invite Zhang Jiuling into the mansion to meet him.In addition to the difficult mood to face, it is also because the current status is really inconvenient to open the door to entertain guests and make good friends, so I can only decline Zhang Jiuling's enthusiasm for the visit.

But he didn't let Zhang Jiuling make a trip in vain. Taking advantage of the slight drunkenness of having a few drinks at dinner, he wrote a few thousand words about his academic experience and experience, which can be regarded as a great contribution to Zhang Jiuling's academic work. Give me some pointers, and make up for my behavior of becoming famous through my poems.

He himself is naturally not considered a master in terms of academics, and he cannot be said to be able to guide the ancients.However, Zhang Jiuling, as this year's imperial examination tribute, had already extracted his Jinshi examination papers. After discussions and comments by the Ministry of Rites and the scholars of the Jiying Hall, Li Tong gave pointers again, and he was able to target the target.

A few days have passed since the Jinshi examination, and the results of all the Jinshi and ranks have been finalized, but they have not yet been officially announced.With Zhang Jiuling's level of talent and learning, it is only natural that he got the first place, so the paper seal of the exam paper was torn off naturally.Therefore, Li Tong did not use public power for private use, so he could see Zhang Jiuling's examination paper.

The Ministry of Rites only selects the list of Jidi scholars, and after the list is published, a palace examination will be held to determine the final ranking.Li Tong's guidance to Zhang Jiuling was aimed at the upcoming palace examination, hoping that this non-mainstream from Lingnan could get a good ranking in the palace examination.

Of course, this also depends on Zhang Jiuling's own ability and savvy. If he can't understand his advice and make corresponding preparations in the next few days, then Li Tong can only express his helplessness.

In the front hall of the scholar's mansion, Zhang Jiuling sat and waited for nearly an hour, feeling quite nervous.After hearing Li Xueshi's moon-watching poem that day, he inquired many ways, and finally found out the details of the poet's life experience.

Later, because he was busy dealing with the imperial examinations, he had no time to be distracted and take care of other things.It was not until the examination was over that I searched for Li Xueshi’s other poems in the Shilin workshop to appreciate them, and my admiration for Li Xueshi’s talents and learning reached a new level.

That's why Zhang Jiuling finally couldn't hold back, and went to visit directly regardless of his abruptness and impoliteness.

Li Xueshi is a confidant of a sage, with a dignified position but difficult for ordinary people to approach.It is not easy to enter the Yuanfang residence alone.

Originally, Zhang Jiuling, a visitor from Lingnan, was hardly allowed to enter Beijing. Fortunately, he was taken care of by Wang Fangqing on the day of the memorial ceremony.But Wang Fangqing's care also helped Zhang Jiuling break the dilemma of being unable to communicate, and was able to get acquainted with many Shiliu in Beijing.

In addition to his own talents and knowledge, Zhang Jiuling has another elegant skill that makes people amazed and curious, that is, domesticating pigeons.It's a hobby he's had since childhood, and it's still interesting and refined as he gets older.

There is no lack of curiosity-seeking in Beijing. After Zhang Jiuling performed the miracle of flying pigeons passing letters a few times, he immediately became the new favorite celebrity in the circle of nobles in Beijing.Those noble children all rushed to visit, which allowed Zhang Jiuling to enter Yuanfang, borrow Xungui's mansion, and had the opportunity to visit Li Xueshi.

Zhang Jiuling didn't feel irritated by so many twists and turns just for the sake of seeing each other, only the anticipation and excitement that his long-cherished wish will be fulfilled in his heart.

However, after waiting for a long time, what finally came was not Xueshi Li's interview, but only a letter delivered by the servant of the house, and he was told: "The Lord is going on a long journey, and we cherish the time of family reunion. We can only respect you." Thank you for your kindness, not to be contemptuous or distant.”

"It is I who want to apologize to the bachelor for coming uninvited and hastily visiting the door to disturb."

Zhang Jiuling was a little disappointed after hearing the words. He had paid a lot of attention to Li Xueshi recently, and of course he knew that he was about to be ordered to travel far away, so he wanted to pay a visit to Li Xueshi before he left Beijing.

Although he was turned away, he could feel the pain of parting, and he didn't feel resentful because of it, but continued to politely say: "Today, when I went to the mansion, I originally prepared a gift to present to the bachelor in person, but now I can only accept it." Please pass it on to the disciples."

While speaking, he raised his finger and pointed to a cage covered with a green cloth that he brought into the house.

Seeing such a thing, the doorman was not surprised. There are many people in Beijing who love hawks, hawks and cockfights. They thought it was a similar thing, but when they stepped forward to lift the cloth cover, they saw a pair of gray pigeons. , I was a little curious in my heart, and turned to look at Zhang Jiuling: Is this visitor planning to use this pair of meat pigeons to add food to the owner?

Although the method of training pigeons to convey messages has existed since ancient times, it is not popular, and there are even fewer such as Zhang Jiuling who are so exquisitely domesticated.

He had already domesticated this pair of pigeons in the countryside, so they naturally looked less conspicuous than falcons and cockfights, but the actual domestication cost was several times higher.If he didn't really admire Xueshi Li, he really wouldn't be willing to give it to others. He didn't know how many noble children in the capital were moved by affection or lured for profit, but he was not willing to give it away.

It's a pity that I couldn't see Xueshi Li sharing his hobbies in person, but Zhang Jiuling patiently explained the methods of raising and using carrier pigeons to the servants in the house, and sent a booklet of experience that he carried with him.

"There is a message sent by this pair of flying slaves. Even though they are thousands of miles away, they are not isolated in the world. I hope the bachelor can accept the flying slaves. If it can be used for family members to express their love, it is also an apology gift for visiting today!"

After saying this, Zhang Jiuling got up to say goodbye.

As soon as he left, Li Tong entered from the inner hall.Of course, he was not eager to peek at Zhang Jiuling's demeanor, after all, he would be able to meet him in the palace examination in a few days, but thought of his negligence just now, and sent his own letter, but it was too late to get it back.

But at the moment, the issue of handwritten letters has been left behind by him. His calligraphy is praised all over the world.All the attention was attracted by the pair of pigeons on the table. After the doorman finished sending the guests and returned to the hall to hand over the brochure, he carefully carried the pigeon cages to the inner hall, and wanted to introduce and share this story with the lady. For fun.

"Is this pair of gray pigeons really so miraculous?"

After Shangguan Wan'er put her children to sleep in the inner hall, she returned to the hall and sat with her husband. Hearing Li Tong's beaming talk about the supernatural powers of the pair of pigeons, she was full of doubts and disbelief.

"If you don't believe me, lady, you can give it a try!"

Although Li Tong was also a little skeptical, Zhang Jiuling's ability to train pigeons was also famous for later generations. After hearing his wife's doubts, he immediately let go of the pigeon cage and gave it a try.

But fortunately, he took another look at the handbook left by Zhang Jiuling, and then said embarrassingly: "It turns out that this pair of pigeons first entered the breeding ground, and they had to be raised intensively for a period of time, so that even though they are thousands of miles away from each other, they are difficult to stop." Involved in love, you can fly across Guanshan and rush back to meet."

Although Shangguan Wan'er still refused to believe it, she liked the image of infatuation depicted by Fu Lang, so she said: "If this pair of pigeons really have such a long-lasting ability, then it is really worth raising them carefully. Don't be greedy for them I can fly far and pass books, I only love this unstoppable infatuation!"

Naturally, the biological theory of carrier pigeons is not because of mutual infatuation, but seeing the love on the lady's face, Li Tong did not show off his knowledge and explained more.

He buried his head and read the manual left by Zhang Jiuling, and he couldn't help but have an idea in his heart to make it bigger.

Although it is said that in addition to the means of domestication, there are too many uncertain factors in the release of pigeons in the wild, and it is impossible to convey any important information, but even if it is just daily information transmission, it seems to be quite useful if it can be done.

Although Zhang Jiuling's manual contains a lot of detailed rules about domestication and maintenance, which is a difficult problem for ordinary people, but there are personnel facilities such as Da Nei Zhong Ying Fang, and it seems that it is not impossible to try it.

Of course, all of this has to wait until the effect is tested before trying again.In short, this gift from Zhang Jiuling was so in line with Li Tong's wishes that the couple had a good time with each other all night.

Not to mention how interesting Li Xueshi's home is, Zhang Jiuling opened Li Xueshi's letter when he returned to the mansion where he lived, and what he saw was the elegant and dignified holy gold calligraphy.

This calligraphy was created by today's sages, and it was highly praised and imitated by scholars after interviews. It has even become a model of Chinese calligraphy, and it is often used as the orthodox style for written affairs such as imperial examinations and elections.Although it is not a rigid rule of the imperial court, it is already a custom in the world.

Although Zhang Jiuling was born in Lingnan, he is no stranger to this style of calligraphy, and he has put in a lot of hard work.He has never seen the calligraphy of the sage himself, but after seeing Li Xueshi's calligraphy, he can't help admiring it and sighing. He only thinks that this scholar is good at calligraphy, which is really rare in the world. Strong family.

After admiring Li Xueshi's calligraphy, Zhang Jiuling couldn't help being more fascinated by the contents of the book. He only felt that Li Xueshi was not only his confidant in terms of poetry and poetry, but also a good teacher who could see into his internal organs in terms of academic management. He has been commenting on all aspects of his academic pros and cons.

"Oh, I have no choice but to save one side... If you are lucky enough to be listed as a disciple of Sanyuan, even if you get nothing in the examination, this long trip to Beijing will be a long-cherished wish fulfilled!"

After reading Li Xueshi's letter, Zhang Jiuling stood up and bowed towards Li Xueshi's residence. Although they hadn't met each other, he already regarded Li Xueshi as a teacher and confidant in his heart.

Chapter 1014 Chang'an's prosperity is hard to enjoy

Chang'an was the capital city of the Tang Dynasty, and people from all over the world gathered together, and there were also various Husbands living in a hundred squares.

Entering Tang Zhuhu, the status and fortune are high and low, which can be roughly judged from their residence in Chang'an.

For example, some Hu people with high status and strong family members mostly live in the residences between several noble squares in the northeast of the city, such as Ying Guogong Hei Chi Chang and so on.Although these people were established by Hu people, they have made considerable contributions, and their various personnel and treatment are not inferior to the native Tang people, and even surpassed many of them.

There are also Hu people who do not rely on merit as the basis of their lives, but live a very prosperous life in Chang'an City, and there are not a few of them. Either their state is powerful, and the Tang Dynasty gave them a lot of preferential treatment for the sake of rule.Or they are wealthy businessmen who have a lot of money and spend a lot of money.

This type of people mostly lived in the busiest and busiest districts in the city, such as the surrounding areas of the East and West cities, or near the Qujiang Pond in the south of the city.

Of course, the rich and powerful are only a minority in the crowd after all, and this is no exception among the Hu people.Most of the Hu people living in Chang'an City are far from being carefree. They describe them as eccentric and have different customs. Although they are not uncommon in the market, they are a kind of alien at first glance.

Although it is said that the government will not deliberately suppress and abuse these Hu people who entered the Tang Dynasty, the common people will inevitably discriminate against them and feel that they are inferior.Such an attitude is far from being intolerant. It is human nature to reject and alienate others.In addition, now that the fortune of the Tang Dynasty is prosperous, looking around the surrounding barbarians can't help being proud.

Most of these barbarians in the market are servants and laborers without proper household registration.Although life is better than in previous years when they were in the remote hometown, they are still at the bottom of society, and the prosperity and prosperity of the Tang Dynasty have nothing to do with them.

Changlefang is under the jurisdiction of Wannian County. Its location in the city is neither bad nor bad, floating in the middle reaches. If there is any characteristic, it is that many Donghu people from Liaodong and Sanhan live in the square.

Some of these Donghu populations are Goguryeo adherents who migrated inland, and some Donghu miscellaneous people moved in one after another.

Fangzhong Nanqu is located on Qixiamen Street, which can be regarded as a traffic place to enter and exit the city gate. Residents here often transform their homes into guest houses for renting and living, so their families are relatively well off.

There is a house in Nanqu that covers an area of ​​seven or eight mu. This is already quite a grand mansion in Changlefang where most of the people are civilians and their houses are only one or two mu.

The owner of this mansion is the mansion of Zuo Rong, the guerrilla general and Beijing battalion general. The guerrilla general is a fifth-rank casual job. According to the system of "The Stable Style", it is possible to have an eight-acre mansion in the city, so there is such a thing. scale.

Zuorong's family background was originally the chief of Mohe, and some of his trilogy followed after entering Beijing.The mansion looked quite imposing from the outside, but after living in a family and following the trilogy, it was actually quite crowded inside.Some clansmen simply cannot afford to live there, and even rent houses outside.

The Beijing camp system is once every March. After three months of duty, the soldiers can take a rotation.Compared with working day and night in all kinds of businesses, it is relatively leisurely.If you encounter any special guards on duty or expedition missions, there will be subsidies in the event.

Although it was said that it was a vacation, Zuorong got up early to deal with some housework.

"Why did you overspend again this month?"

Zuorong couldn't help frowning and asking after finishing the calculation of the books that his family had sorted out.Looking at the expenditure item of more than 500 yuan, such a sum may be just the expense of a banquet for some powerful families, but it is more than 200 yuan a month for Zuorong's family. It still made him feel a little shocking and distressed.

Originally, as the son of the rich chieftain of Mohe, Zuorong didn't need to worry about such miscellaneous matters, but now he lives in Chang'an and spends money on everything, and the family income is extremely limited. The most stable and considerable is his official salary and food. He couldn't help being careless anymore.

"Before and after the imperial examination, the rental price of guest houses was higher than usual. This year, more states have entered Beijing than in previous years, so the current price is also higher than in previous years..."

Seeing the irritated look on the owner's face, the family replied cautiously before rushing in.The emaciated camel is bigger than a horse. Although Zuorong entered Beijing as a prisoner of war in the early years, there are still many cronies and followers in the clan. In addition, there have been exiles in Beijing for several years. Now there are four people who need to be taken care of. As many as 500 people.

Among the Bubi people in Beijing, there was still a piece of land in Yingzhou in the early years that could be used for farming, mulberry, fishing, hunting and other productions.But after entering Beijing, everything must follow the rules and regulations, and there are no idle fields for them to work and produce, so their livelihood will naturally become difficult.

"After the imperial examination, there will be a military examination, and after the military examination, there will be a chamber of commerce. When will the rent of a house in Beijing be cheap?"

After hearing the words, Zuorong said angrily, he had heard similar remarks many times, and every time he just became more irritable.

Skipping over the item of expenses, he pointed to the income and said, "The expenses have already increased, but how come the income has decreased instead? Those who are straight-legged and hard-working have received less than half of what they received last month!"

With so many people eating horse chews, of course they can't just sit and eat. Zuorong supports these tribesmen, and the tribesmen also have to find opportunities to work in Beijing and turn in their income so that they can maintain their family.Otherwise, he would not be able to afford the expenses of so many people with his salary alone in Beijing.

"Song Xianggong entered the court a few days ago, and it was only in Beijing for a long time that we knew that our Sumo clan had been a disaster on the border for a long time, so we were looked down upon by others. The owners of the mansions and shops refused to hire my clan members..."

Hearing what his family said, Zuorong became even more angry: "Begging Sibiyu to commit crimes, why is there any reason for my people to suffer in Beijing!"

For Qi Si Biyu who had the revenge of killing his father, Zuo Rong was of course full of hatred, but he never thought that even if this guy died, he would still be implicated.Although they have great hatred for each other, for Jingzhong Shiliu, they are always in the same nest, and they really don't bother to distinguish the power among them.

After looking through the account books, Zuorong asked helplessly: "How much floating money is there in the treasury now? Give me two hundred money first. King Xi has entered the capital to stay in the guard and is about to accompany him to the Eastern Capital. I want to visit him to congratulate him." Enter Beijing."

"Now there are only more than 130 coins in the curry, and we have to pay for this month's rice charcoal. Why don't we wait until Alang receives his salary next month, and then go to congratulate King Xi..."

"How is this possible! Now among the Dongyi species, only King Xi is the most expensive. If he knows that I won't go to show up and make things difficult for me, I will suffer even more!"

Zuorong shook his head repeatedly when he heard this, he was not sociable in the middle of the capital, Xi Wang and Li Dajiu were regarded as the most honorable person who could walk around.Moreover, King Xi came to Beijing after Song Jing, and the issue of the control of the Eastern Hu tribes must also be consulted by the court officials. Now there are tens of thousands of households trapped in the west of Liaoxi in Mohe. The imperial court expressed his enthusiasm and loyalty for being willing to take charge of the tribe.

"Then we can only use Xiaoku..."

The family members were also helpless, and then suggested.

Zuorong shook his head repeatedly after hearing the words: "The heavy goods received by the small warehouse are already the only capital I have left, and I must save them for making friends with real powerful people, and must not be wasted!"

After all, King Xi is a foreigner, and he has the right to speak in border affairs but not the right to make decisions. Of course, Zuo Rong is not willing to use his roots to bribe.After thinking for a while, he said again: "Go and ask Linfang Sabaoguoyi He Wanjin to come and let him choose and buy some men and women from the mansion to go there for emergency."

As long as there is another way, Zuorong is not willing to sell the trilogy as slaves.These people followed him all the way to Beijing, and they still never left. They are all sincere and loyal people, and they are also the most reliable team members for him to improve in the future.

But a penny is hard for a hero, and now he is trapped in the big prison of Chang'an like a dragon. Only by breaking through the barriers will there be more possibilities in the future.

Sabao Mansion is an institution that manages foreigners, mainly Hu people in the Western Regions. It is difficult for those Hu people to become naturalized, but they need to be registered in Sabao Mansion for management.And He Wanjin, Captain Guoyi of Sabao Mansion, is nominally an official of Sabao Mansion, but secretly he is one of the largest slave traders in Chang'an City.Such as Zuorong, who is not strong but has many parts, is naturally a candidate for his people to work hard to persuade.

Sumo Mohe was considered to be the best among the servants of the barbarians. Most of the men had the skills of fishing and hunting and trained hawks and harriers, while the women could be trained and sold as Silla maidservants.In order not to arouse King Xi's resentment, Zuorong could only do so urgently.

Seeing the gloomy and ugly face of the owner, the family didn't dare to say anything, so they could only walk out quickly.But half an hour later, he came back in a hurry, and said in a hurry: "Master, He Wanjin was just taken away by the Gouyuan last night, and now the whole house has been sealed. It is difficult to open up several other industries at the same time..."

"It's such a coincidence?"

Zuorong was also a little surprised when he heard the words. He Wanjin was able to run such a large slave trade in Beijing, and he was naturally taken care of behind him, but he was planted in Gouyuan's hands quietly, which is really tolerable. I can't help but sigh.

In the past few years, as long as the high-ranking officials and nobles went down to the merchants in the market, as long as the crime was in the hands of Gouyuan, it was rare for them to be able to get out of it all.

But Zuorong didn't think too much about it, after all, collecting money was the top priority.Since this road was blocked, he planned to go to Jingying Zhitang to find a colleague to lend money to make a turnaround.

There are Xi Daying and Bei Daying outside the Beijing Camp, and there are two straight halls in the city, one is in the imperial city in the west, and the other is in Yongchangfang in the north of the city.Yongchangfang is located under Danfeng Gate, where there are many lawsuits and waiya.

When Zuorong rode his horse to the square, he immediately felt the atmosphere in the square was a bit dignified. On the way to the Jingying Zhitang, he saw several teams escorting criminals. Coincidentally, those criminals It seems that they all look like barbarians.

After going straight to Jingying Zhitang to sign in, he saw a few colleagues chatting and walking towards Zhitang, Zuorong stepped forward and asked: "Several, what happened? Why are there so many criminals on the street?" only?"

When they saw Zuorong, they shut their mouths tacitly. Only a captain who was usually quite friendly pulled him aside and said in a low voice: "These people who are arrested now are all tricksters who have accumulated lawsuits for a long time. Hu bully. The two counties, the state government and the Gouyuan jointly inspected and punished them for the crime of intercepting the emperor's grace and abusing the humble officials. There are also many songs in your house? If they are sent out of the capital, if they are allowed to sue in the government, they will have to suffer..."

Zuorong didn't think that this matter had something to do with him at first, but when he heard his colleague say that, he couldn't help being startled, he didn't have time to think about it, and after thanking his colleague, he left in a hurry and rushed back to his home.

Although what his colleagues said was not very clear, Zuorong was keenly aware that the court's arrest this time seemed not only for crimes, but mainly to clean up the influential people in Beijing.Although he is not a conspicuous group among them, there are still a lot of people in the series. After the big sweep is over, it may be his turn next!

Chapter 1015 Persia returns to righteousness, Qunhu rule of law

In the last ten days of April, the various divisions of the imperial court took action suddenly and arrested many Hu people, nearly a hundred of them in Chang'an alone.At the same time, all the prefectures in the pass also took action, and hundreds of Hu people of various ethnic groups were captured.

As for the crimes that these Hu people were arrested, they were all different. Some were directly shot by the Gouyuan arresting army, bribed by criminals, or arrested by the state and county government, obstructing enlightenment because of indiscriminate sacrifices, or bullying the market and violating laws and regulations. etc.

Such an almost unified action covering the entire Guanzhong area and all states was not an accidental anomaly, but premeditated and prepared for a long time. The whole operation was presided over by Prime Minister Yan Yanfan.After the arrests of the relevant criminals in Zhufang in Beijing were completed, the targets arrested in Zhuzhou were also escorted to Beijing one after another, and the criminal divisions of the various criminal departments began to hear the sentence together.

This action of catching Hu was like a thunderbolt. Although there were a lot of cases and people involved, it did not cause too much disturbance in the world.In addition to the quick action, it is also because the Hu people do not belong to the mainstream in the whole customs after all, and some Hu people and dignitaries in the DPRK and China are silent about this action, and there is no channel to speak out.

For ordinary people, at most, they discovered that a wealthy Hu family in the workshop or in the countryside suddenly violated the criminal law and was arrested by the government, but they did not know that there were many other Hu people in similar situations who almost suffered together.

Although the charges of the arrested Hu people were different, their identities all had one thing in common. They were all the leaders of the Hu people in the area.Hundreds of criminals, the identities disclosed to the public are either Zongzheng of the Zoroastrian Temple, or various officials of Sabao Mansion.

As more and more Hu people entered the Tang Dynasty, the organizational forms of their respective groups were also different.Among them, there are not only the tribes full of tribal features, but also religious organizations such as Zoroastrianism and Nestorianism.

In terms of their respective regional origins, the Turkic and Tiele tribes from Qikou in Mobei, as well as the Donghu tribes, basically retain their original tribal colors.The Hus from Xifan tended to be religious, business groups and other organizations.

The Zoroastrian Temple originated from Persia and was very influential among the Western Regions. Especially after Persia was destroyed by the Great Food, a large number of core figures of the religious organizations in the Zoroastrian Temple fled to the four towns of Anxi controlled by the Tang Dynasty. Along the commercial road all the way to the east, in today's Chang'an and Guanzhong areas, there are hundreds of Zoroastrian temples, large and small.

Although these Zoroastrian temples are called religious organizations, they can be regarded as another form of governance model.Zoroastrians control the religious status of believers, regularly hold various ceremonies to worship the gods, accept donations from believers and serve them. If they do not have a fixed legal territory, they are almost no different from the states and counties in the Tang Dynasty.

Organizations like Sabao Mansion are similar to Zhechong Mansion, except that the people they organize are not military households, but merchants from the states of the Western Regions.

Commercial exchanges between the Western Regions and China have been very frequent since the Qin and Han Dynasties.Sabao is the leader of the business group. To fight against various natural disasters and man-made disasters on the long business road, these merchants often organize activities in groups, electing the most powerful and prestige in the team as Sabao, and unified management of the business group. various actions.

Such a business group organization did not disband after entering Middle-earth, and even took root in the local area as some Hu merchants settled down.

In the former Sui Dynasty, there was also a prosperous and glorious moment when all nations came to the court, and Sabao business groups entered Chang'an in an endless stream. The imperial court simply officially recognized the existence of this type of organization, established the Sabao Mansion and appointed Sabao and its Various official positions under him, as an aid to control the entry of Zhuhu.
