Northern Dynasties Imperial Industry

After visiting Shangyuan School, Li Tai became more determined to put his son here to receive enlightenment education.

He did not want his son to learn those skills. After all, the boy should still focus on basic enlightenment education at the moment. The pragmatic and truth-seeking academic atmosphere of Shangyuan Academy can bring great infection and influence to him. This is Li What Tai values.

The mountain villa on the east side of the manor has a wide avenue leading to the outside for easy access. It has been idle since the Shangyang Palace was built, but the villagers are still carefully cleaning and maintaining the building layout and interior. The layout still retains the appearance in Li Tai's memory.

Returning to this country house, Li Tai felt more cordial, and scenes of his past life here kept reappearing in his mind. Jiang Lingle also lived in this country with his mother for a period of time. He was no stranger to the novel and interesting decorations here. After getting his father's permission, he happily went to play.

Li Tai and Li Zhusheng chatted about some things about their hometown, and then expressed their plans to send their son back to his hometown to go to school.

Li Zhusheng and others were overjoyed when they heard this. Either because of their age or lack of ability, they were unable to join Master Lang in the wars and achievements, so they could only stay in their hometown, and they were also worried about what would happen next. As the master became more powerful, the relationship between them became more and more distant. When I heard that I still had the opportunity to take care of the young master's daily life and education, my heart was filled with joy, and I repeatedly expressed that I would make arrangements for it.

After staying overnight in the countryside, Li Tai returned to Shangyang Palace the next day with his unfinished son, and then arranged teachers, classmates, etc. for the boy.

In addition to his eldest cousin Lu Rou, Li Tai also arranged for Liu Fan and Yan Zhiyi from the Southern Dynasties, as well as Lu Sidao and Wang Shao from Hebei. At the same time, they have been teaching at Shangyuan School and are familiar with mathematical knowledge and various industries. Skilled Li Zhusheng and others were also assigned some popular science courses.

Jiang Lingle alone does not need to be allocated such a strong teaching staff, so Li Tai also arranged for many classmates and study companions, and all the relatives, friends and children of the hero's family visited. In addition to Yu Wenpu, the son of Yu Wentai, who had agreed before, there were also Yang Zan, the son of Yang Zhong, Mr. Wei, the son of Wei Xiaokuan, Gao Le, the son of Gao Xiong, Shi Wansui, the son of Shi Jing, Li Xingshi, the son of Li Licheng, etc.

In addition, Guo Zheng, the son of Guo Yan who died in the previous Eastern Expedition, and several other orphans of martyrs of appropriate age, together gathered more than 20 schoolchildren. After these schoolchildren gathered in Shangyang Palace, they were sent to Shangyuanzhuang together, and they could only go home every ten days during the holidays.

"Poor me, Jiang Lingle, I have to leave home to study at such a young age, and I don't know if I can eat or sleep well?"

After sending her son away, Miaoyin felt lost and in a trance all day long. When Li Tai came home after a day's work, she sat aside and sighed.

Li Tai was a little dumbfounded when he heard this. He glared at his wife and scolded: "Shangyuan is only a dozen miles away, and it is my hometown. This boy is obviously going back home to study. What is there to worry about? Then Shangyuan Lingye Apart from a few naughty children occasionally disturbing people's peace, what else can disturb this kid's sleep and sleep?"

Miaoyin's pretty face turned red when she heard her husband mentioning her misdeeds in childhood, but she couldn't help but said: "My husband said that the two places are so close, so what can I do if I let him come back and live here after school?" When a baby is born in ten months of pregnancy and is suddenly separated from your arms, it is inevitable to be worried and sad..."

"The weaning of a lamb is just a thought. The more entangled you are with it, the harder it is to let go. He was born with the muscles and bones of a man, and he will eventually stand on his own in heaven and earth. How can he grow up to be a plaything in his parents' garden! You are worried about him now, and he is still playing in the mountains with his companions. I don’t know how fun and carefree it is.”

Although Li Tai was a little worried about this kid, when he thought of the scene when he was free from the control of his parents and played with his companions when he was a child, he suddenly felt that these worries were unnecessary. If this kid had not gone wild and lost two pairs of shoes today, he would probably not have taken them to bed with him, so the parents themselves suddenly lost their emotional support and had nothing to think about.

The facts were indeed as Li Tai expected. According to reports from Lu Rou and others when they returned, these boys adapted quickly after going to Shangyuan Village, and in a very short time learned to go up the mountain to dig out birds, go into the stream to catch shrimps, etc. With this skill, most of the peach blossoms on Shangyuan Ridge were destroyed before they could bloom, so that Li Tai had to go to Shangyuan again, took out the ruler that had been used to whip Li Ya in the early years, and intimidated these boys again.

The family affairs are arranged well, the first month is coming to an end, and the New Year atmosphere is still lingering, but Li Tai has returned to his normal office rhythm.

At present and for a long time to come, the politics of the Western Wei Dynasty are mainly based on rest and digestion. Officials from all over the world were in place a year ago to cooperate with the Bafu in appeasing and providing relief to the people in these newly occupied areas. As the cold winter is about to pass, the vitality that has been preserved with great difficulty will once again be rejuvenated and show its vitality in this new year. vitality.

The recovery and development of various places rely on the efforts and cooperation of local officials and citizens. What the government can do is to try its best to maintain the stability of the overall situation and ensure that no pressure from the upper levels and the outside is allowed to interrupt the rhythm of domestic development.

Now within Bafu, Li Tai has absolute authority, and there are no internal conflicts such as personnel disputes and power struggles. It can be said that the politics is clear and the situation is stable. As for the external world, there is no need to say more. There are almost no forces that dare to raise troops to challenge the Western Wei Dynasty.

Of course, it cannot be said that there are no hidden dangers from the outside. After all, even the unification has not been completed yet. Even if a unified empire is established in the future, surrounded by various barbarians, we must always remain vigilant and remember that forgetting to fight will lead to danger!

Previously, the Turks attacked Northern Qi through Yinshan Mountain, but ended up forming an alliance with Northern Qi, and the two sides also carried out actual military cooperation and jointly attacked the Donghu Kumo Xi.

Li Tai knew about this matter very early. In addition to the news channels from the Western Wei itself, the Turkic Uzun Khan also took the initiative to send envoys to Guanzhong to inform and explain after the expedition against Kumo Xi. At the same time, he also presented 5,000 cattle and horses to the Western Wei, and 2,000 captured Kumo Xi men and women, hoping to gain the forgiveness of the Western Wei.

The Turks' attitude and practice made Li Tai feel that he was an unscrupulous bully, forcing his allies to steal electric cars to offer him tribute. But to be honest, whether it is the Southern Chen or the Turks, their secret communication with the Northern Qi, if there is a reason from the Western Wei, it is because the Western Wei itself is too powerful.

The relationship between countries is inherently contradictory and complex, and it is a subtle and dynamic game state. If there is no change between the two sides for a long time, it may be that you are too slow and insensitive, or you have weakened to the point of being completely passive in this relationship. In short, it will not be a good phenomenon.

Li Tai did not make any strong opposition to this. After all, the two sides have even had actual military cooperation, and it is far from being able to deter the Turks from taking action just by verbal opposition. Unless the troops are sent immediately, the relationship between the two sides can be forced to undergo any substantial changes, either to break up or to unite more closely.

He just invited the Turkic envoy to Wuzun Khan to come to Yinshan on his way back and meet each other again, hoping to resolve some of the misunderstandings between the two sides and make the diplomatic relations between them closer.

Wuzun Khan would not come to Yinshan naturally. When he attacked Northern Qi in the east before, he did not dare to take the Yinshan Road. In this situation, he would not dare to do so, lest he follow the footsteps of his elder brother Mugan Khan. Not only did Wuzun Khan not come to Yinshan himself, but even Buli Khan and his party who had passed by before did not return along the way they came. The whole group of horses entered the south of the desert through the Baidao Road in Wuchuan, and then returned to the Khanate of the north of the desert.

Neither the Western Wei nor the Turks were weak. Since they had been allied for many years, the connection they had naturally had was not limited to one aspect. At present, although Li Tai was not prepared to send troops to sweep across the Turkic Khanate of the north of the desert, he would not give up.

He issued an order to Li Xian in Lingzhou to reduce the total amount of trade with the Turkic Khanate at Wuyuanding Border City, and increase the reduced part to the exchanges between the remaining Turkic tribes and the Tiele tribes and other grassland tribes, and at the same time strengthen the control of the Hu tribes in the south of the desert and expand the scale of the Hu tribe city around Wuyuanding Border City.

At the same time, Li Tai arranged for General Li He to serve as the governor of Yanzhou and Li Yantou to serve as the governor of Suizhou. The garrison in northern Shaanxi further moved to Shuofang and gathered. Taking advantage of the strategic contraction of the border defense of Northern Qi, they strengthened the reconnaissance and sweeping of the front areas such as Wuchuan and Huaishuo, gradually gained control over the surrounding areas of Baidao, and squeezed the channels and space for the union between Northern Qi and the Turks.

Of course, he would not tear up the alliance with the Turks directly because of this matter, but if there was no response, the ambitious Turks would inevitably become more and more aggressive, and Qi Lord Gao Yan would definitely try his best to cater to the Turks in order to get a chance to breathe.

So Li Tai put on a big show, but in fact, the harm he caused to them was not too great, so that although they were afraid in their hearts, they would not jump over the wall because their interests were too seriously damaged. They thought they were steady and gradually tried and explored, so as to buy themselves a time to recuperate, and wait until the time was right to find an opportunity to cook them all in one pot!

The relationship between the three northern kingdoms became delicate due to the marriage interaction between the Turks and the Northern Qi, while the Southern Chen in the south was relatively peaceful.

The Huainan side had previously made a mistake, and the Southern Chen's idea of ​​using the power of the Western Wei to recover the Huainan counties was ruined. The Southern Chen side was also very regretful. Since Li Tai returned to the country, the Southern Chen has continuously sent envoys to Guanzhong, hoping to have a positive and in-depth consultation on this matter.

However, Li Tai naturally would not give any positive response to the Southern Chen side. Time dragged on until June. This time, it was no longer a request to discuss the Huainan issue, but to report the death.
