Chapter 87: Chen Ajiao
It's not that Wei Qing stands out from the crowd, it's that Shu Yun has a good ear, and when he heard someone call Wei Qing's name, that person was an acquaintance, and that person was Gongsun Ao. Gongsun Ao was the nephew of Gongsun Kunxie and Gongsun He's cousin Well, Gongsun He was Liu Che's servant back then, and Gongsun Ao also took an errand with him, and got acquainted with the crown prince.As for Shu Yun, when he was not the crown princess, he often went to the crown prince's uterus. After becoming the crown prince's concubine, he naturally met many officials in the crown prince's womb.
Gongsun Ao obviously has a good relationship with Wei Qing. Habayashi Wei has finished his weapons training and is taking a rest. Gongsun Ao is talking to Wei Qing.
Wei Qing was still a young boy at this time, he looked very young, and he seemed very unconfident among all the habayashi doctors.This is also unavoidable. The Habayashi men in the Habayashi Guard are all from good families, and many of them are relatives of some princes and nobles. As for Wei Qing, he was born as a riding slave of Princess Pingyang's mansion, so he was recommended by Princess Pingyang. It is considered to have entered Habayashi Guard.
In the past, Princess Pingyang recommended him because Wei Zifu had entered the palace, but now Wei Zifu has been in the palace for half a year, and there is no news. It is obvious that Liu Che has forgotten somewhere. Princess Pingyang Naturally, it is impossible for the mansion to have much additional investment in Wei Qing. Wei Qing is a little sad in Habayashi Guard!
The members of the Gongsun family, whether it is Gongsun He or Gongsun Ao, are not very good in other aspects, but they are quite knowledgeable. Gongsun Ao has spotted Wei Qing and thinks that he is a good talent, so he has been treating him all the time. She took great care of her and even thought about marrying one of her sisters to Wei Qing in the future.
Shu Yun just glanced at him casually, and didn't go up to get acquainted immediately, but just listened to Liu Che express his ambitions there.Habayashiro's quality is very high. In Shanglinyuan, they not only learn martial arts, but also the art of war. They use the Huns as imaginary enemies to conduct deduction. When the war broke out, they were directly used as the backbone, and good families were recruited to join the army on the spot, and an army of tens of thousands of people could be armed immediately.This is also a normal practice in the Qin and Han dynasties. It is nothing more than the quality of the officers. It should be noted that at this time, ordinary people also need military training.Until the late period of Emperor Wu, because of years of fighting, the people's strength was almost exhausted, so they had to recruit those rangers and criminals to join the army. In fact, the military quality of these people was not as good as that of good families.
So, at this time, Habayashiro, even if he doesn't become a marquis in the future, as long as he doesn't die on the battlefield, his future will not be bad.
Liu Che was very concerned about Yu Linwei, probably to prevent Shu Yun from thinking of meddling in the military power. This is a tradition. For example, the current generals of the Northern Army and the Southern Army, Li Guang is a member of the Empress Dowager, and Cheng I don't know, it was recommended by Tian Fu to stand out in the army back then, so this person is actually the queen mother, the Chen family has no foundation in the army, but if the empress Shu Yun is interested, some people are willing Taking refuge, Liu Che is very taboo about this, so he just took Shu Yun for a cursory look, and then took Shu Yun to Jianzhang. This is the prototype of Jianzhang Palace. Live here all the time.
After entering the door, the most conspicuous thing is a huge map hanging there, which was embroidered by skilled craftsmen. It is clearly a simple map of the north, and the north of Yanzhao is the territory of the Xiongnu.In fact, the Han Dynasty knew a lot about the Xiongnu. Although the law stipulated that smuggling was not allowed, but for the sake of profit, those businessmen didn't pay attention to these things. It can be said that smuggling was repeatedly prohibited, just like later In the Battle of Mayi, that Nie Yi was born in smuggling various commodities for the Xiongnu tribe.
In addition, there were frequent exchanges of envoys between the Han Dynasty and the Hungarians. In fact, to be precise, when the old Shang Shanyu was alive, he fought very few battles with the Han Dynasty. The sphere of influence is in the north, not in the south near the Han Dynasty. He prefers to go to the Western Regions to attack those small countries. sweep.
This is why after Zhang Qian got through the Western Regions, most of the countries in the Western Regions were willing to cooperate with the Han Dynasty to attack the Xiongnu. It should be squeezed and demanded.
Under such circumstances, going to Mobei, the Han Dynasty may not know much about it, but the Han Dynasty still knows the situation in Monan. It is useless not only to know it on the map, but if it is useful , It is not that when attacking the Huns, Gongsun Ao, Gongsun He, and Li Guang counted one by one. It is normal for them to get lost and lose their time!For those like Wei Qinghuo Qubing who were able to fight to the court of the Huns, apart from their strength, God was also standing by their side.
Standing in front of the huge map, Liu Che said proudly, "After a few years, when the big man has enough horses, he can directly declare war on the Xiongnu. This vast grassland, where Kou can go, I can go too!"
Shu Yun nodded, and said with a smile: "Of course, Your Majesty will succeed!" That's right, Liu Che had already succeeded in another timeline, although it was based on the fact that the domestic economy was almost collapsed by him. , but success is success, and it will not change because of other things.In many cases, Liu Che didn't know the priority at all. In fact, the big man turned from prosperity to decline in his hands. On the one hand, he fought against the Huns, Mitsukoshi, and a few small countries in the southwest. Of course, the army in these places is not famous. , the problem is that these places can be regarded as wild lands, full of miasma, and all kinds of poisonous insects and parasites. , Most of them were knocked down by hot and humid climate, miasma and poisonous insects.Moreover, most of the troops in the Han Dynasty were from the north, and it was even worse when they arrived in the south. If they were able to play five points in combat effectiveness, they had relatively high military quality!
Shu Yun has traveled a few times, and the period of blindly worshiping historical figures has long passed. She has seen many emperors. In fact, Shu Yun privately feels that Zhu Yuanzhang is the most powerful one he has ever seen. Well, at least he is the one who restrains his desire the most, because of his background, even if there are some limitations in his thinking, he is also the one who is the most sympathetic to the sufferings of people's livelihood.
As for Liu Che, if it weren't for his grandson, he wouldn't even be able to get a temple name. After all, if he could be considered wise in the first half of his life, the following years would probably be a dark history of being deceived by alchemists and swindlers in different ways.
Therefore, Shu Yun was not at all moved by Liu Che's ambitions. Starting from Gaozu, several generations of emperors have been accumulating silently for the sake of revenge. These days, what is advocated is that the revenge of the nine generations can be avenged, and they don't pay attention to repaying grievances with virtue. Even those Confucian children were on the standpoint of hatred towards the Xiongnu. That is to say, later on, people’s livelihood was exhausted. Except for those military nobles, everyone felt that they could not afford to fight. Then there was a wave of peace talks.But now, even the Empress Dowager, who believes in Huang Lao, at most wants Liu Che to be more cautious when it comes to the issue of the Xiongnu, and wait until she is sure enough to do anything, instead of standing on such a big issue of right and wrong. Wrong position.
With the two generations of Wen and Jing having accumulated enough financial resources, whichever emperor of the Liu family takes over will launch a war of shame against the Xiongnu. If not, wouldn't anyone be able to spit in the face of a big man?
Liu Che is a very egotistical person, and he didn't see Shu Yun's thoughts at all. He enthusiastically explained to Shu Yun some of the strategies he had obtained with Habayashi Wei and some generals in the sand table, and Shu Yun silently Listening, recalling the records I saw in the history books back then, corroborating each other, thinking about what to do if it was me.
Liu Che didn't stay in Shanglin Garden for a few days, and he had to go back soon. In the Chinese calendar, October is the New Year. Therefore, in September, officials from various counties and countries will go to Beijing to take up their posts at the Great Court Conference. This will last for a long time. For a long time, Liu Che must personally preside over such matters. Of course, he has learned how to behave now.
The empress dowager was very worried about this grandson, even if she lacked energy, she would have to ask a few more questions, lest this one also come to the plank road to hide his secrets and hide his little tricks in private.Of course, the Empress Dowager also knows that she should not be too hasty with this impatient grandson, so even if she hears something she is not satisfied with, the Empress Dowager will not directly reprimand her. The empress dowager could actually see the shadow of the first emperor, and Emperor Jing was also a very quick-tempered person, otherwise he wouldn't have smashed the prince of Wu to death with a chessboard!Emperor Jing was already middle-aged when he came to the throne. At that time, he had been tempered by various things so that his temperament became calm and he was no longer so irritable. However, Liu Che was still too young when he was the emperor.
In fact, if it wasn't for the strong support of her own daughter back then, the Empress Dowager would not have approved Liu Che as the crown prince. He was almost the late emperor's youngest son. Since his birth, his aunt Wang Ji had only given birth to two princes. No more children were born in the palace.As for the first emperor, his health was not very good. In the early years, the difficult days in the country of Dai brought some damage to his body. Therefore, the first emperor has been in power for more than ten years, and his body has always had some big and small problems. It was several times of various critical illnesses, but he just persisted.Even so, in the eyes of the Empress Dowager, Liu Che is still too young. When he became the crown prince, he was only four or five years old, and he has hardly encountered any setbacks since then. In order to pave the way for him, the late emperor will almost be older than him All the princes rushed to the fief, and then escorted him all the time. Under such circumstances, Liu Che was a typical stunned young man. He didn't know what awe was at all if he didn't let him hit his head and bleed.
And the main reason why the Empress Dowager was more patient with Liu Che was that Shu Yun was pregnant!Since Shu Yun was able to conceive, even if she was a daughter, she would definitely be able to have children in the future. For example, the Queen Mother gave birth to three daughters in a row back then, but she was desperate and had to bring her younger sister Wang Ji into the palace. The two sisters served the late emperor together, so they conceived Liu Che just before the late emperor would forget her.
Therefore, in the eyes of the Empress Dowager, it is only natural that Shu Yun can conceive, even if she will give birth to a prince in the future. As the eldest son, this prince is naturally the No. In this way, even for this great-grandson, the Empress Dowager would have to teach Liu Che for a few more years, lest Liu Che lose all the property left to his great-grandson.
The queen's pregnancy naturally strengthened Liu Che's rule. At least on the side of the empress dowager, there will be no mention of abolishing the emperor in the future!However, in the eyes of others, this is not a good thing!For example, the Queen Mother, whether it was Liu Rong or Liu Che, was able to be the prince back then, wasn't it because Queen Bo had no children?The queen has a child, as long as she doesn't die halfway, what are the other children?
The Queen Mother has always been disliked by Dou Taizhu. Up to now, Dou Taizhu still regards herself as a benefactor in front of the Queen Mother. Originally, the Queen Mother thought that the queen would have no children, and she would be left out in the cold in the future. As a result, Liu Che It's just that I was more intimate with the queen some time ago, and the queen became pregnant. If it was possible, the queen mother really didn't mind doing something to Shu Yun's belly. However, she said that she was the queen mother, but her influence was limited to the elders. In the autumn palace, in the inner palace, the real caller is the empress dowager. The empress dowager can guarantee that if she dares to do anything bad to the empress's child, the empress dowager will immediately reveal her dark history and let her The queen mother can't do it.
Therefore, the Queen Mother could only sulk in her own Changqiu Palace, and she didn't even dare to throw the basin, for fear that the sound would be heard and the Queen Mother would know.
But Princess Pingyang on the other side of the river doesn't have such a good temper. Princess Pingyang is also the eldest princess now. She has always wanted to get the same status as Princess Guantao back then. Sending off women, Wei Zifu is just the one who seems to have the best future. After all, there are many women who have been favored by Liu Che in Princess Pingyang's mansion, and only Wei Zifu followed back to the palace.
But now, Wei Zifu has no news, not to mention, the queen is still pregnant!This was a huge blow to Princess Pingyang.
Marquis Pingyang Cao Shou has always been in a tacit attitude towards his wife. Although Marquis Pingyang ranks very high among the princes and is a Marquis of ten thousand families, Cao Shou is actually not in good health. When he was the son of the prince, he tried his best to participate After the battle to pacify the Seven Kingdoms, it was considered to have stabilized his position. After that, he stayed in Hedong to recuperate.Cao Shou's ancestor, Cao Shen, was also a prime minister back then. He was considered the backbone of the Huang-Lao faction. Cao Shou was naturally influenced, so many things can be said to go with the flow.
However, the princesses of the old Liu family are really not easy to marry, and each one has big ideas. When he was a teenager, Cao Shou thought it was a good thing to marry the prince's sister, but after Princess Pingyang came in, Cao Shou I feel that I have married an ancestor and came back. Princess Pingyang has to take care of everything. After Liu Che grows up a little bit, he likes to run outside, just like the princes of the Liu family before. Well, from that time on, they began to search for beauties in the fief, whether they were slaves born in the family or outsiders, and found someone to train them in singing and dancing. The first-class ones could be dedicated to Liu Che, and the second-class ones, It can be used to entertain distinguished guests, third-class and fourth-class ones, diners in the mansion, and even some useful servants and maidservants, can come into contact with the maidservants of the Pingyang Hou Mansion at a negative distance.
This kind of luck, Cao Shou can't understand, there are too many people doing this in Liehou's family, I only hate that the emperor looks down on his own daughter, but Princess Pingyang's attitude towards Queen Chen is simply crazy The same, in Cao Shou's view, there is no need for this at all.
With the Empress Dowager still alive, the Wang family and the emperor wanted to cross the river and tear down the bridge.Just like when the first emperor, after the death of the empress dowager, Empress Bo was deposed because she had no children. My wife couldn't wait for this time. When she heard that the empress was pregnant, her expression was so distorted that even Cao Shou felt Startled.
No matter how angry Princess Pingyang is, it will be useless. Compared with the prestige of Dou Taizhu when she was the first emperor, Princess Pingyang is far behind. Of course, this is also because Liu Che's own authority has not really been established. The power of the princess is essentially It is said that it was separated from the emperor, the emperor himself is not enough, let alone her princess.
Now that it was the end of the year, Liehou had to go to Beijing to congratulate her. Princess Pingyang also went to Beijing. After entering Beijing, she went directly to Changqiu Palace before she had time to settle down.
When Princess Pingyang arrived at Changqiu Palace, Princess Nangong and Princess Longli had already arrived. The reason why Princess Nangong came early was because her husband Nangonghou was confiscated because of a crime. Naturally, she is divorced, so she is now living in the Princess Mansion in Chang'an City, waiting for Liu Che to order to find her a husband. He is the son of Taizhu Dou, and their family has not sealed off the country, and they have always stayed in Chang'an.This also made Princess Pingyang a little jealous of her younger sister. After all, all the nobles hoped to stay in Chang'an. Staying in Chang'an would allow them to be closer to the emperor, and they would be able to know the benefits immediately. Well, it may not be possible to see the emperor once a year. This is not a good thing. If it is really forgotten by Chang'an, there will be no good life after that.
Of course, Hedong is not far from Chang'an, and Liu Che is a restless emperor who runs out all day. Chang'an, who would be happy to live in Hedong?Princess Pingyang even secretly thought that if she stayed in Chang'an and found out that the queen was pregnant, she would be able to act immediately!
A place like this in the palace is also afraid that the walls have ears. The Queen Mother was accused of going to the Changle Palace because of her uneasy expression. Seeing that Princess Pingyang wanted to complain, she opened her mouth and cut it off, saying that it was a blessing that the queen was pregnant, which set the tone.Princess Pingyang is not a stupid person, of course, she is not smart either. After Cao Shou died, she remarried twice, and finally married Wei Qing. What happened in the end?Wei Qing's children didn't teach well, and in the end, they almost died together!
Princess Nangong's first husband became a vassal, a bit lower than ordinary people, which also made Princess Nangong very embarrassed, so she kept a low profile in Chang'an for the past two years, and she was not very willing to express her opinions in Changqiu Palace However, Princess Longli is really happy, after all, she is now Shu Yun's second sister-in-law, and she and Shu Yun are both prosperous and mutually exclusive.You know, Chen Yu is really incompetent. In the future, her children will have to rely on her younger brother and sister-in-law to get a better fief and more closed households. So, Shu Yun can live The eldest son of the next emperor is definitely a good thing for Princess Longli.
This also made Princess Pingyang hold her breath even more.
When the palace banquet started at night, Princess Pingyang became even more depressed. The palace banquet was actually a gathering of relatives from the old Liu family. Dou's, Chen's, Wang's, and Tian's relatives were all on the list, as if they As for these princesses, those who are favored can also be mixed up, but at the palace banquet, the Chen family seems to have the posture of being surrounded by stars. Under the candlelight, she looks more and more beautiful like jade, graceful and luxurious, and looking at the scenery of Dou Taizhu, Princess Pingyang feels even more upset.
Shu Yun glanced at the expressions of many relatives and royals below, with a slight smile on her face. It's great to have an elder who can protect her from the wind and rain. The Empress Dowager is a special protector, just like At the beginning, she wanted her youngest son to succeed the emperor. Although the matter failed, the first emperor took the bait of the emperor's younger brother, and first hooked Liu Wu to send money and effort to quell the chaos of the Seven Kingdoms, and almost failed to defeat Liang Guo. Rotten.Afterwards, he turned his face and refused to recognize anyone. First, Liu Rong was canonized. After all, Liu Rong was the eldest son of the emperor. It was as if a slap had been slapped on Liu Wu's face. Well, in your eyes, my younger brother is not even as good as an unweaned baby!This made Liu Wu jump over the wall in a hurry, and did the assassination of the minister. After Liu Wu returned to the feudal country, he died of depression, also known as the Empress Dowager. She almost turned against the late emperor and won Liu Wu's four sons from the late emperor. The treatment of all the kings, and a lot of households have been added, so it is barely a give up.
Now that the two sons are gone, the Empress Dowager is devoted to protecting her daughter and beloved granddaughter. If anyone dares to make Shu Yun unhappy in front of her, the Empress Dowager can make him unhappy for the rest of his life.Both the Dou family and the Chen family were happy to see Shu Yun's pregnancy. To be honest, the Dou family was really aggrieved. Back then, Dou Changjun and Dou Guangguo finally recognized the Empress Dowager. In the end, because the previous Lu family When it comes to government matters, the heroes of the princes are extremely vigilant towards their relatives. When Dou Changjun and Dou Guangguo were Emperor Wen, it took a lot of effort to be able to become a marquis. After that, they obviously have the strength to be prime ministers, but no one would agree. , Then what can these two do, they can only cultivate immortals at home honestly!
Dou Ying is not actually a direct descendant of the Dou family, it can only be said to be a side branch. With talent like Dou Ying, who has been a prince teacher, he was not able to be a marquis until after the Seven Kingdoms were pacified. After that, no matter whether it is his political His literacy is too low, he always does some inappropriate things, or because of his surname Dou, he is excluded from the center of power.
After the Dou family, on the contrary, the Wang family and the Tian family were easily granted the title of Marquis. Tian Fu, who has no military achievements and no integrity, can also be the prime minister.It can be said that no matter what kind of weight the Empress Dowager occupies in the Great Han Dynasty, the Dou family really did not get much benefit.
Like now, the Tian family and the Wang family are actually not very happy, but they can only pretend to be happy. In short, everyone is happy and harmonious, and they look like they are really a family.
Liu Che finished the previous banquet, and when he came to the back, he looked cheerful when he saw the current situation. After all, unless he had other plans, otherwise, most people hope that the family will live in harmony. In fact, Liu Che was also afraid of a fire in the backyard!Unless he has completely controlled the situation, at that time, he will even deliberately cause all kinds of disagreements, lest a group of relatives turn out to be of one mind and trap him, the emperor.
In the second year of Jianyuan, nothing new happened. In the third year of Jianyuan, Liu Che had a whim and wanted to release all the old and useless palace people from the palace. Shu Yun couldn't understand his brain hole. These palace people entered the palace almost from a young age. Apart from serving people, they have no other survival skills at all. After they are released, although they have freedom, they don't have any production skills, and they don't have much money to buy some production materials. After they got out, they could only be reduced to beggars. After all, they were released because they were old and unusable, and no one would use them if they wanted to sell themselves into slavery again. Liu Che seemed like a benevolent government, but in fact, wasn't it harmful?
Shu Yun originally wanted to talk to Liu Che, but Liu Che didn't even bother to listen to what Shu Yun had to say now. Wei Zifu finally seized the opportunity, bribed some palace officials, and walked up to Liu Che again, posing With a pitiful look, it means that since I am also a useless person in the palace, why don't you show mercy, Your Majesty, and let me go out of the palace to fend for myself!
Wei Zifu is really beautiful, and his temperament is extremely docile. It can be said that Liu Che's appetite has been cast in every aspect. Liu Che had forgotten her before, but now that he thinks about it, he is a little annoyed. He brought such a beauty into the palace by himself. It was such a waste that I hadn't seen her since. At that moment, Liu Che directly named Wei Zifu as the seventh son, and then she was lucky.As for the things about the palace people releasing the palace, Liu Che naturally didn't care about the follow-up matters.
After Shu Yun heard about it, he didn't bother to take care of it, so he simply ordered to tell those palace people who were released from the palace that if they had other places to go, then the Shaofu can give them a certain amount of travel expenses and let them go home , if it doesn't work, then go to Shu Yun's fief for the elderly!That's right, as a queen, Shu Yun also has a fief and food town.When she was born, Dou Taizhu begged his younger brother, and made Shu Yun the Weng Lord. At that time, Shu Yun had a food town of two thousand households. When Shu Yun became the crown princess, the food town increased by one more After all, after becoming a queen, Shuyun's food town has ten counties, which is not much worse than some princes and kings. It is in Guanzhong, not far from Chang'an. With tens of millions of money, these are Shu Yun's legal income. It is not too much for Shu Yun to support a group of people in his own food town.
Most of the people who will serve in the palace are poor people with nowhere to go. At their age, even if there are still people in the family, who has so much spare money to support an old man whose relatives are far away?Therefore, the vast majority of people said that they would not go back, and they were all grateful to Shu Yun, the queen.After all, at their age, after leaving the palace, they really can't do anything, they can't even recognize the crops.
The palace man's matter was settled, and Liu Che didn't bother with the following at all. He was proud that he was going to have a second child, and Wei Zifu was also pregnant. There were only two pregnant women in the palace, so naturally this one had to be confessed carefully. Although Wei Zifu was still only a seven son, the treatment was already that of a beauty.
Shu Yun was calm about this place, but Taizhu Dou was quite dissatisfied. After all, if Shu Yun gave birth to a daughter and Wei Zifu gave birth to a son, as the eldest son of the emperor, he would naturally be qualified to challenge the throne.
Dou Taizhu wanted to do something, such as arresting Wei Qing and threatening Wei Zifu, but Shu Yun stopped him immediately. To put it bluntly, the things in the palace depend more on the emperor's wishes, what can be done by those things outside What is the effect?Even if Master Dou killed Wei Qing, Wei Zifu might use this to gain some sympathy points from Liu Che!
After being told by Shu Yun, Madam Dou naturally didn't do much. Now she was busy burning incense and praying everywhere, praying that Shu Yun's birth would be a son.On the contrary, Shu Yun was very calm, she was already pregnant, could it be that she was born a daughter and could still be stuffed back!What's more, if history has inertia, Wei Zifu's birth should also be a daughter. Wei Zifu should have a lot in common with the Queen Mother on this kind of matter. She also gave birth to three daughters in a row before giving birth to a daughter. Under Liu Shi.Fortunately, Wei Qing was already in his early years at that time, otherwise, Wei Zifu's shelf life would not last for so many years.
Shu Yun was in a good mood, and she could continue to pay attention to papermaking, and asked people to start engraving, to study ink, and to prepare for engraving and printing.As for movable type printing, before the literacy rate reaches a certain level, it cannot be popularized at all, because engraving printing allows craftsmen to engrave according to the template, while movable type requires printing workers to pick from the type models.Why didn't this thing come out until the Northern Song Dynasty?It was because at that time, the literacy rate among the people reached a certain level, and many craftsmen could also be literate. However, after the Song Dynasty, the literacy rate went backwards for a while. The Ming Dynasty was fine, but in the Qing Dynasty, the literacy rate was really high It is very problematic.Therefore, even though movable type printing was invented, it has never been able to become the mainstream.
Shaofu has already produced the first batch of paper. Of course, there are still some problems with the quality, but these can be improved. Some Mohist people are also busy improving the process, so as to increase production and reduce costs. Otherwise, this thing can only be used as a luxury item, which does not meet Shu Yun's original intention.However, soon, she will be able to print a batch of books and read them.There are still two months before the Empress Dowager's birthday, which is enough time.
The emergence of paper and printing is enough to give Shu Yun a wave of prestige among the scholar-bureaucrats. In addition, no matter whether it is in the court or in the opposition, all schools have to accept Shu Yun's favor. With the support of the scholar-official class, Shu Yun's future status will be unshakable.
As for what to do next, Shu Yun has to think about it. It’s best to forget about horseshoes, saddles, etc. Shu Yun can guarantee that as soon as he takes them out, Liu Che will immediately find an excuse to attack the Huns. If something goes wrong, this technology is obtained by the Huns, and they will face big trouble afterwards.Whether it's horseshoes or saddle stirrups, this technology is not complicated, it's just that no one has thought of it before.Saddles and stirrups are not a big problem for the Huns. Horseshoes are more of a test of smelting technology. It should be noted that the Huns are still using bronze weapons. This is what the Bank of China said. , the gap in equipment between the Han and the Hungarian was rapidly narrowed, and it was not changed until later, after the invention of large guns.However, although the Xiongnu people are not good at smelting technology, there are several small countries in the Western Regions, and the smelting technology is not bad. Looking back, if the Huns used the new technology provided by the Han people in friendship, and beat the Han people, Shu Yun felt that he was really There are no people inside and out!
Therefore, instead of making horseshoes, saddles and stirrups, it is better to ask people to try to make steel first!But this thing is not easy to do. There is a lack of iron ore in Guanzhong. There are coal mines, but the mining technology is also very bad these days. It is almost piled up with human lives. Many mines under the name of Shaofu use slaves Mining, the question is, how many slaves are there in total?
After Wei Zifu became pregnant, Liu Che seemed to have received some kind of encouragement, and went to Shanglin Garden with a few beauties. As for Shu Yun, he didn't bother to join in the fun, so he stayed in the palace now and began to think about what to do. Climb the tech tree.In this era, although many black technologies have appeared, such as non-rusting bronze swords, and rail vehicles in the Qin Dynasty, the problem is that there is no systematic industrial system. Shu Yun sometimes Think of something, and then look again, the prerequisites are not satisfied at all, and you have to study other things. Shu Yun doesn't have a deep understanding of many things in this era, so he can only write down what he knows , and then start to push forward one by one, list all the preconditions, and then see what can be done now.
In the end, Shu Yun found that the easiest thing to do was to make a fuss about agriculture. The bean products and flour that Shu Yun made before have proved to be very successful. After the New Year, many people switched to wheat instead of Corn and millet.In the land of Jingchu in the south, rice has already been planted. Shu Yun wondered whether rice can also be planted in Guanzhong. You must know that the climate in Guanzhong is still relatively warm. Shu Yun saw Gun Gun in Shanglinyuan last time. Well, even if it's not warm, wouldn't future generations in Northeast China still be able to grow rice?It's nothing more than a longer growth period.Therefore, it is more reasonable to plant rice in summer and winter wheat in winter to harvest two crops a year.Nowadays, in Guanzhong, they only plant for one season. If they don't go to the fields, they will have to go fallow.Planting two seasons of grain requires more advanced farming techniques. The most important thing is to fertilize the land. Otherwise, ordinary land cannot withstand such continuous cultivation, and no matter how good the field is, it will not be so fertile.
The other is the agricultural infrastructure, such as some waterwheels and bobbins. Of course, there are prerequisites here, and local officials need to cooperate with the construction of various water conservancy facilities. There are not so many canals and canals these days. Many of the water systems used in the canal transportation system known to later generations of Shu Yun were excavated in the Qin and Han Dynasties, and have gone through several generations of emperors. In this era, if these things are done casually, if they are not done well, it will be the same as Emperor Sui Yang opened up canals , Turning around can stink your reputation.However, in the land of Guanzhong, the water system is still relatively developed, so it can be done first.
In addition, it is to see if we can introduce various fresh crops from the Western Regions. Zhang Qian has not yet been sent to the Western Regions. Naturally, he has not been able to open up the Silk Road. There is still a Xiongnu standing between many small countries in the Western Regions and the Han Dynasty. The Xiongnu themselves did not know how to farm, so whatever they wanted, they just robbed it and forced those small countries in the Western Regions to contribute.Therefore, even if those merchants smuggle, they cannot get these works from the Huns.
Gongsun Ao obviously has a good relationship with Wei Qing. Habayashi Wei has finished his weapons training and is taking a rest. Gongsun Ao is talking to Wei Qing.
Wei Qing was still a young boy at this time, he looked very young, and he seemed very unconfident among all the habayashi doctors.This is also unavoidable. The Habayashi men in the Habayashi Guard are all from good families, and many of them are relatives of some princes and nobles. As for Wei Qing, he was born as a riding slave of Princess Pingyang's mansion, so he was recommended by Princess Pingyang. It is considered to have entered Habayashi Guard.
In the past, Princess Pingyang recommended him because Wei Zifu had entered the palace, but now Wei Zifu has been in the palace for half a year, and there is no news. It is obvious that Liu Che has forgotten somewhere. Princess Pingyang Naturally, it is impossible for the mansion to have much additional investment in Wei Qing. Wei Qing is a little sad in Habayashi Guard!
The members of the Gongsun family, whether it is Gongsun He or Gongsun Ao, are not very good in other aspects, but they are quite knowledgeable. Gongsun Ao has spotted Wei Qing and thinks that he is a good talent, so he has been treating him all the time. She took great care of her and even thought about marrying one of her sisters to Wei Qing in the future.
Shu Yun just glanced at him casually, and didn't go up to get acquainted immediately, but just listened to Liu Che express his ambitions there.Habayashiro's quality is very high. In Shanglinyuan, they not only learn martial arts, but also the art of war. They use the Huns as imaginary enemies to conduct deduction. When the war broke out, they were directly used as the backbone, and good families were recruited to join the army on the spot, and an army of tens of thousands of people could be armed immediately.This is also a normal practice in the Qin and Han dynasties. It is nothing more than the quality of the officers. It should be noted that at this time, ordinary people also need military training.Until the late period of Emperor Wu, because of years of fighting, the people's strength was almost exhausted, so they had to recruit those rangers and criminals to join the army. In fact, the military quality of these people was not as good as that of good families.
So, at this time, Habayashiro, even if he doesn't become a marquis in the future, as long as he doesn't die on the battlefield, his future will not be bad.
Liu Che was very concerned about Yu Linwei, probably to prevent Shu Yun from thinking of meddling in the military power. This is a tradition. For example, the current generals of the Northern Army and the Southern Army, Li Guang is a member of the Empress Dowager, and Cheng I don't know, it was recommended by Tian Fu to stand out in the army back then, so this person is actually the queen mother, the Chen family has no foundation in the army, but if the empress Shu Yun is interested, some people are willing Taking refuge, Liu Che is very taboo about this, so he just took Shu Yun for a cursory look, and then took Shu Yun to Jianzhang. This is the prototype of Jianzhang Palace. Live here all the time.
After entering the door, the most conspicuous thing is a huge map hanging there, which was embroidered by skilled craftsmen. It is clearly a simple map of the north, and the north of Yanzhao is the territory of the Xiongnu.In fact, the Han Dynasty knew a lot about the Xiongnu. Although the law stipulated that smuggling was not allowed, but for the sake of profit, those businessmen didn't pay attention to these things. It can be said that smuggling was repeatedly prohibited, just like later In the Battle of Mayi, that Nie Yi was born in smuggling various commodities for the Xiongnu tribe.
In addition, there were frequent exchanges of envoys between the Han Dynasty and the Hungarians. In fact, to be precise, when the old Shang Shanyu was alive, he fought very few battles with the Han Dynasty. The sphere of influence is in the north, not in the south near the Han Dynasty. He prefers to go to the Western Regions to attack those small countries. sweep.
This is why after Zhang Qian got through the Western Regions, most of the countries in the Western Regions were willing to cooperate with the Han Dynasty to attack the Xiongnu. It should be squeezed and demanded.
Under such circumstances, going to Mobei, the Han Dynasty may not know much about it, but the Han Dynasty still knows the situation in Monan. It is useless not only to know it on the map, but if it is useful , It is not that when attacking the Huns, Gongsun Ao, Gongsun He, and Li Guang counted one by one. It is normal for them to get lost and lose their time!For those like Wei Qinghuo Qubing who were able to fight to the court of the Huns, apart from their strength, God was also standing by their side.
Standing in front of the huge map, Liu Che said proudly, "After a few years, when the big man has enough horses, he can directly declare war on the Xiongnu. This vast grassland, where Kou can go, I can go too!"
Shu Yun nodded, and said with a smile: "Of course, Your Majesty will succeed!" That's right, Liu Che had already succeeded in another timeline, although it was based on the fact that the domestic economy was almost collapsed by him. , but success is success, and it will not change because of other things.In many cases, Liu Che didn't know the priority at all. In fact, the big man turned from prosperity to decline in his hands. On the one hand, he fought against the Huns, Mitsukoshi, and a few small countries in the southwest. Of course, the army in these places is not famous. , the problem is that these places can be regarded as wild lands, full of miasma, and all kinds of poisonous insects and parasites. , Most of them were knocked down by hot and humid climate, miasma and poisonous insects.Moreover, most of the troops in the Han Dynasty were from the north, and it was even worse when they arrived in the south. If they were able to play five points in combat effectiveness, they had relatively high military quality!
Shu Yun has traveled a few times, and the period of blindly worshiping historical figures has long passed. She has seen many emperors. In fact, Shu Yun privately feels that Zhu Yuanzhang is the most powerful one he has ever seen. Well, at least he is the one who restrains his desire the most, because of his background, even if there are some limitations in his thinking, he is also the one who is the most sympathetic to the sufferings of people's livelihood.
As for Liu Che, if it weren't for his grandson, he wouldn't even be able to get a temple name. After all, if he could be considered wise in the first half of his life, the following years would probably be a dark history of being deceived by alchemists and swindlers in different ways.
Therefore, Shu Yun was not at all moved by Liu Che's ambitions. Starting from Gaozu, several generations of emperors have been accumulating silently for the sake of revenge. These days, what is advocated is that the revenge of the nine generations can be avenged, and they don't pay attention to repaying grievances with virtue. Even those Confucian children were on the standpoint of hatred towards the Xiongnu. That is to say, later on, people’s livelihood was exhausted. Except for those military nobles, everyone felt that they could not afford to fight. Then there was a wave of peace talks.But now, even the Empress Dowager, who believes in Huang Lao, at most wants Liu Che to be more cautious when it comes to the issue of the Xiongnu, and wait until she is sure enough to do anything, instead of standing on such a big issue of right and wrong. Wrong position.
With the two generations of Wen and Jing having accumulated enough financial resources, whichever emperor of the Liu family takes over will launch a war of shame against the Xiongnu. If not, wouldn't anyone be able to spit in the face of a big man?
Liu Che is a very egotistical person, and he didn't see Shu Yun's thoughts at all. He enthusiastically explained to Shu Yun some of the strategies he had obtained with Habayashi Wei and some generals in the sand table, and Shu Yun silently Listening, recalling the records I saw in the history books back then, corroborating each other, thinking about what to do if it was me.
Liu Che didn't stay in Shanglin Garden for a few days, and he had to go back soon. In the Chinese calendar, October is the New Year. Therefore, in September, officials from various counties and countries will go to Beijing to take up their posts at the Great Court Conference. This will last for a long time. For a long time, Liu Che must personally preside over such matters. Of course, he has learned how to behave now.
The empress dowager was very worried about this grandson, even if she lacked energy, she would have to ask a few more questions, lest this one also come to the plank road to hide his secrets and hide his little tricks in private.Of course, the Empress Dowager also knows that she should not be too hasty with this impatient grandson, so even if she hears something she is not satisfied with, the Empress Dowager will not directly reprimand her. The empress dowager could actually see the shadow of the first emperor, and Emperor Jing was also a very quick-tempered person, otherwise he wouldn't have smashed the prince of Wu to death with a chessboard!Emperor Jing was already middle-aged when he came to the throne. At that time, he had been tempered by various things so that his temperament became calm and he was no longer so irritable. However, Liu Che was still too young when he was the emperor.
In fact, if it wasn't for the strong support of her own daughter back then, the Empress Dowager would not have approved Liu Che as the crown prince. He was almost the late emperor's youngest son. Since his birth, his aunt Wang Ji had only given birth to two princes. No more children were born in the palace.As for the first emperor, his health was not very good. In the early years, the difficult days in the country of Dai brought some damage to his body. Therefore, the first emperor has been in power for more than ten years, and his body has always had some big and small problems. It was several times of various critical illnesses, but he just persisted.Even so, in the eyes of the Empress Dowager, Liu Che is still too young. When he became the crown prince, he was only four or five years old, and he has hardly encountered any setbacks since then. In order to pave the way for him, the late emperor will almost be older than him All the princes rushed to the fief, and then escorted him all the time. Under such circumstances, Liu Che was a typical stunned young man. He didn't know what awe was at all if he didn't let him hit his head and bleed.
And the main reason why the Empress Dowager was more patient with Liu Che was that Shu Yun was pregnant!Since Shu Yun was able to conceive, even if she was a daughter, she would definitely be able to have children in the future. For example, the Queen Mother gave birth to three daughters in a row back then, but she was desperate and had to bring her younger sister Wang Ji into the palace. The two sisters served the late emperor together, so they conceived Liu Che just before the late emperor would forget her.
Therefore, in the eyes of the Empress Dowager, it is only natural that Shu Yun can conceive, even if she will give birth to a prince in the future. As the eldest son, this prince is naturally the No. In this way, even for this great-grandson, the Empress Dowager would have to teach Liu Che for a few more years, lest Liu Che lose all the property left to his great-grandson.
The queen's pregnancy naturally strengthened Liu Che's rule. At least on the side of the empress dowager, there will be no mention of abolishing the emperor in the future!However, in the eyes of others, this is not a good thing!For example, the Queen Mother, whether it was Liu Rong or Liu Che, was able to be the prince back then, wasn't it because Queen Bo had no children?The queen has a child, as long as she doesn't die halfway, what are the other children?
The Queen Mother has always been disliked by Dou Taizhu. Up to now, Dou Taizhu still regards herself as a benefactor in front of the Queen Mother. Originally, the Queen Mother thought that the queen would have no children, and she would be left out in the cold in the future. As a result, Liu Che It's just that I was more intimate with the queen some time ago, and the queen became pregnant. If it was possible, the queen mother really didn't mind doing something to Shu Yun's belly. However, she said that she was the queen mother, but her influence was limited to the elders. In the autumn palace, in the inner palace, the real caller is the empress dowager. The empress dowager can guarantee that if she dares to do anything bad to the empress's child, the empress dowager will immediately reveal her dark history and let her The queen mother can't do it.
Therefore, the Queen Mother could only sulk in her own Changqiu Palace, and she didn't even dare to throw the basin, for fear that the sound would be heard and the Queen Mother would know.
But Princess Pingyang on the other side of the river doesn't have such a good temper. Princess Pingyang is also the eldest princess now. She has always wanted to get the same status as Princess Guantao back then. Sending off women, Wei Zifu is just the one who seems to have the best future. After all, there are many women who have been favored by Liu Che in Princess Pingyang's mansion, and only Wei Zifu followed back to the palace.
But now, Wei Zifu has no news, not to mention, the queen is still pregnant!This was a huge blow to Princess Pingyang.
Marquis Pingyang Cao Shou has always been in a tacit attitude towards his wife. Although Marquis Pingyang ranks very high among the princes and is a Marquis of ten thousand families, Cao Shou is actually not in good health. When he was the son of the prince, he tried his best to participate After the battle to pacify the Seven Kingdoms, it was considered to have stabilized his position. After that, he stayed in Hedong to recuperate.Cao Shou's ancestor, Cao Shen, was also a prime minister back then. He was considered the backbone of the Huang-Lao faction. Cao Shou was naturally influenced, so many things can be said to go with the flow.
However, the princesses of the old Liu family are really not easy to marry, and each one has big ideas. When he was a teenager, Cao Shou thought it was a good thing to marry the prince's sister, but after Princess Pingyang came in, Cao Shou I feel that I have married an ancestor and came back. Princess Pingyang has to take care of everything. After Liu Che grows up a little bit, he likes to run outside, just like the princes of the Liu family before. Well, from that time on, they began to search for beauties in the fief, whether they were slaves born in the family or outsiders, and found someone to train them in singing and dancing. The first-class ones could be dedicated to Liu Che, and the second-class ones, It can be used to entertain distinguished guests, third-class and fourth-class ones, diners in the mansion, and even some useful servants and maidservants, can come into contact with the maidservants of the Pingyang Hou Mansion at a negative distance.
This kind of luck, Cao Shou can't understand, there are too many people doing this in Liehou's family, I only hate that the emperor looks down on his own daughter, but Princess Pingyang's attitude towards Queen Chen is simply crazy The same, in Cao Shou's view, there is no need for this at all.
With the Empress Dowager still alive, the Wang family and the emperor wanted to cross the river and tear down the bridge.Just like when the first emperor, after the death of the empress dowager, Empress Bo was deposed because she had no children. My wife couldn't wait for this time. When she heard that the empress was pregnant, her expression was so distorted that even Cao Shou felt Startled.
No matter how angry Princess Pingyang is, it will be useless. Compared with the prestige of Dou Taizhu when she was the first emperor, Princess Pingyang is far behind. Of course, this is also because Liu Che's own authority has not really been established. The power of the princess is essentially It is said that it was separated from the emperor, the emperor himself is not enough, let alone her princess.
Now that it was the end of the year, Liehou had to go to Beijing to congratulate her. Princess Pingyang also went to Beijing. After entering Beijing, she went directly to Changqiu Palace before she had time to settle down.
When Princess Pingyang arrived at Changqiu Palace, Princess Nangong and Princess Longli had already arrived. The reason why Princess Nangong came early was because her husband Nangonghou was confiscated because of a crime. Naturally, she is divorced, so she is now living in the Princess Mansion in Chang'an City, waiting for Liu Che to order to find her a husband. He is the son of Taizhu Dou, and their family has not sealed off the country, and they have always stayed in Chang'an.This also made Princess Pingyang a little jealous of her younger sister. After all, all the nobles hoped to stay in Chang'an. Staying in Chang'an would allow them to be closer to the emperor, and they would be able to know the benefits immediately. Well, it may not be possible to see the emperor once a year. This is not a good thing. If it is really forgotten by Chang'an, there will be no good life after that.
Of course, Hedong is not far from Chang'an, and Liu Che is a restless emperor who runs out all day. Chang'an, who would be happy to live in Hedong?Princess Pingyang even secretly thought that if she stayed in Chang'an and found out that the queen was pregnant, she would be able to act immediately!
A place like this in the palace is also afraid that the walls have ears. The Queen Mother was accused of going to the Changle Palace because of her uneasy expression. Seeing that Princess Pingyang wanted to complain, she opened her mouth and cut it off, saying that it was a blessing that the queen was pregnant, which set the tone.Princess Pingyang is not a stupid person, of course, she is not smart either. After Cao Shou died, she remarried twice, and finally married Wei Qing. What happened in the end?Wei Qing's children didn't teach well, and in the end, they almost died together!
Princess Nangong's first husband became a vassal, a bit lower than ordinary people, which also made Princess Nangong very embarrassed, so she kept a low profile in Chang'an for the past two years, and she was not very willing to express her opinions in Changqiu Palace However, Princess Longli is really happy, after all, she is now Shu Yun's second sister-in-law, and she and Shu Yun are both prosperous and mutually exclusive.You know, Chen Yu is really incompetent. In the future, her children will have to rely on her younger brother and sister-in-law to get a better fief and more closed households. So, Shu Yun can live The eldest son of the next emperor is definitely a good thing for Princess Longli.
This also made Princess Pingyang hold her breath even more.
When the palace banquet started at night, Princess Pingyang became even more depressed. The palace banquet was actually a gathering of relatives from the old Liu family. Dou's, Chen's, Wang's, and Tian's relatives were all on the list, as if they As for these princesses, those who are favored can also be mixed up, but at the palace banquet, the Chen family seems to have the posture of being surrounded by stars. Under the candlelight, she looks more and more beautiful like jade, graceful and luxurious, and looking at the scenery of Dou Taizhu, Princess Pingyang feels even more upset.
Shu Yun glanced at the expressions of many relatives and royals below, with a slight smile on her face. It's great to have an elder who can protect her from the wind and rain. The Empress Dowager is a special protector, just like At the beginning, she wanted her youngest son to succeed the emperor. Although the matter failed, the first emperor took the bait of the emperor's younger brother, and first hooked Liu Wu to send money and effort to quell the chaos of the Seven Kingdoms, and almost failed to defeat Liang Guo. Rotten.Afterwards, he turned his face and refused to recognize anyone. First, Liu Rong was canonized. After all, Liu Rong was the eldest son of the emperor. It was as if a slap had been slapped on Liu Wu's face. Well, in your eyes, my younger brother is not even as good as an unweaned baby!This made Liu Wu jump over the wall in a hurry, and did the assassination of the minister. After Liu Wu returned to the feudal country, he died of depression, also known as the Empress Dowager. She almost turned against the late emperor and won Liu Wu's four sons from the late emperor. The treatment of all the kings, and a lot of households have been added, so it is barely a give up.
Now that the two sons are gone, the Empress Dowager is devoted to protecting her daughter and beloved granddaughter. If anyone dares to make Shu Yun unhappy in front of her, the Empress Dowager can make him unhappy for the rest of his life.Both the Dou family and the Chen family were happy to see Shu Yun's pregnancy. To be honest, the Dou family was really aggrieved. Back then, Dou Changjun and Dou Guangguo finally recognized the Empress Dowager. In the end, because the previous Lu family When it comes to government matters, the heroes of the princes are extremely vigilant towards their relatives. When Dou Changjun and Dou Guangguo were Emperor Wen, it took a lot of effort to be able to become a marquis. After that, they obviously have the strength to be prime ministers, but no one would agree. , Then what can these two do, they can only cultivate immortals at home honestly!
Dou Ying is not actually a direct descendant of the Dou family, it can only be said to be a side branch. With talent like Dou Ying, who has been a prince teacher, he was not able to be a marquis until after the Seven Kingdoms were pacified. After that, no matter whether it is his political His literacy is too low, he always does some inappropriate things, or because of his surname Dou, he is excluded from the center of power.
After the Dou family, on the contrary, the Wang family and the Tian family were easily granted the title of Marquis. Tian Fu, who has no military achievements and no integrity, can also be the prime minister.It can be said that no matter what kind of weight the Empress Dowager occupies in the Great Han Dynasty, the Dou family really did not get much benefit.
Like now, the Tian family and the Wang family are actually not very happy, but they can only pretend to be happy. In short, everyone is happy and harmonious, and they look like they are really a family.
Liu Che finished the previous banquet, and when he came to the back, he looked cheerful when he saw the current situation. After all, unless he had other plans, otherwise, most people hope that the family will live in harmony. In fact, Liu Che was also afraid of a fire in the backyard!Unless he has completely controlled the situation, at that time, he will even deliberately cause all kinds of disagreements, lest a group of relatives turn out to be of one mind and trap him, the emperor.
In the second year of Jianyuan, nothing new happened. In the third year of Jianyuan, Liu Che had a whim and wanted to release all the old and useless palace people from the palace. Shu Yun couldn't understand his brain hole. These palace people entered the palace almost from a young age. Apart from serving people, they have no other survival skills at all. After they are released, although they have freedom, they don't have any production skills, and they don't have much money to buy some production materials. After they got out, they could only be reduced to beggars. After all, they were released because they were old and unusable, and no one would use them if they wanted to sell themselves into slavery again. Liu Che seemed like a benevolent government, but in fact, wasn't it harmful?
Shu Yun originally wanted to talk to Liu Che, but Liu Che didn't even bother to listen to what Shu Yun had to say now. Wei Zifu finally seized the opportunity, bribed some palace officials, and walked up to Liu Che again, posing With a pitiful look, it means that since I am also a useless person in the palace, why don't you show mercy, Your Majesty, and let me go out of the palace to fend for myself!
Wei Zifu is really beautiful, and his temperament is extremely docile. It can be said that Liu Che's appetite has been cast in every aspect. Liu Che had forgotten her before, but now that he thinks about it, he is a little annoyed. He brought such a beauty into the palace by himself. It was such a waste that I hadn't seen her since. At that moment, Liu Che directly named Wei Zifu as the seventh son, and then she was lucky.As for the things about the palace people releasing the palace, Liu Che naturally didn't care about the follow-up matters.
After Shu Yun heard about it, he didn't bother to take care of it, so he simply ordered to tell those palace people who were released from the palace that if they had other places to go, then the Shaofu can give them a certain amount of travel expenses and let them go home , if it doesn't work, then go to Shu Yun's fief for the elderly!That's right, as a queen, Shu Yun also has a fief and food town.When she was born, Dou Taizhu begged his younger brother, and made Shu Yun the Weng Lord. At that time, Shu Yun had a food town of two thousand households. When Shu Yun became the crown princess, the food town increased by one more After all, after becoming a queen, Shuyun's food town has ten counties, which is not much worse than some princes and kings. It is in Guanzhong, not far from Chang'an. With tens of millions of money, these are Shu Yun's legal income. It is not too much for Shu Yun to support a group of people in his own food town.
Most of the people who will serve in the palace are poor people with nowhere to go. At their age, even if there are still people in the family, who has so much spare money to support an old man whose relatives are far away?Therefore, the vast majority of people said that they would not go back, and they were all grateful to Shu Yun, the queen.After all, at their age, after leaving the palace, they really can't do anything, they can't even recognize the crops.
The palace man's matter was settled, and Liu Che didn't bother with the following at all. He was proud that he was going to have a second child, and Wei Zifu was also pregnant. There were only two pregnant women in the palace, so naturally this one had to be confessed carefully. Although Wei Zifu was still only a seven son, the treatment was already that of a beauty.
Shu Yun was calm about this place, but Taizhu Dou was quite dissatisfied. After all, if Shu Yun gave birth to a daughter and Wei Zifu gave birth to a son, as the eldest son of the emperor, he would naturally be qualified to challenge the throne.
Dou Taizhu wanted to do something, such as arresting Wei Qing and threatening Wei Zifu, but Shu Yun stopped him immediately. To put it bluntly, the things in the palace depend more on the emperor's wishes, what can be done by those things outside What is the effect?Even if Master Dou killed Wei Qing, Wei Zifu might use this to gain some sympathy points from Liu Che!
After being told by Shu Yun, Madam Dou naturally didn't do much. Now she was busy burning incense and praying everywhere, praying that Shu Yun's birth would be a son.On the contrary, Shu Yun was very calm, she was already pregnant, could it be that she was born a daughter and could still be stuffed back!What's more, if history has inertia, Wei Zifu's birth should also be a daughter. Wei Zifu should have a lot in common with the Queen Mother on this kind of matter. She also gave birth to three daughters in a row before giving birth to a daughter. Under Liu Shi.Fortunately, Wei Qing was already in his early years at that time, otherwise, Wei Zifu's shelf life would not last for so many years.
Shu Yun was in a good mood, and she could continue to pay attention to papermaking, and asked people to start engraving, to study ink, and to prepare for engraving and printing.As for movable type printing, before the literacy rate reaches a certain level, it cannot be popularized at all, because engraving printing allows craftsmen to engrave according to the template, while movable type requires printing workers to pick from the type models.Why didn't this thing come out until the Northern Song Dynasty?It was because at that time, the literacy rate among the people reached a certain level, and many craftsmen could also be literate. However, after the Song Dynasty, the literacy rate went backwards for a while. The Ming Dynasty was fine, but in the Qing Dynasty, the literacy rate was really high It is very problematic.Therefore, even though movable type printing was invented, it has never been able to become the mainstream.
Shaofu has already produced the first batch of paper. Of course, there are still some problems with the quality, but these can be improved. Some Mohist people are also busy improving the process, so as to increase production and reduce costs. Otherwise, this thing can only be used as a luxury item, which does not meet Shu Yun's original intention.However, soon, she will be able to print a batch of books and read them.There are still two months before the Empress Dowager's birthday, which is enough time.
The emergence of paper and printing is enough to give Shu Yun a wave of prestige among the scholar-bureaucrats. In addition, no matter whether it is in the court or in the opposition, all schools have to accept Shu Yun's favor. With the support of the scholar-official class, Shu Yun's future status will be unshakable.
As for what to do next, Shu Yun has to think about it. It’s best to forget about horseshoes, saddles, etc. Shu Yun can guarantee that as soon as he takes them out, Liu Che will immediately find an excuse to attack the Huns. If something goes wrong, this technology is obtained by the Huns, and they will face big trouble afterwards.Whether it's horseshoes or saddle stirrups, this technology is not complicated, it's just that no one has thought of it before.Saddles and stirrups are not a big problem for the Huns. Horseshoes are more of a test of smelting technology. It should be noted that the Huns are still using bronze weapons. This is what the Bank of China said. , the gap in equipment between the Han and the Hungarian was rapidly narrowed, and it was not changed until later, after the invention of large guns.However, although the Xiongnu people are not good at smelting technology, there are several small countries in the Western Regions, and the smelting technology is not bad. Looking back, if the Huns used the new technology provided by the Han people in friendship, and beat the Han people, Shu Yun felt that he was really There are no people inside and out!
Therefore, instead of making horseshoes, saddles and stirrups, it is better to ask people to try to make steel first!But this thing is not easy to do. There is a lack of iron ore in Guanzhong. There are coal mines, but the mining technology is also very bad these days. It is almost piled up with human lives. Many mines under the name of Shaofu use slaves Mining, the question is, how many slaves are there in total?
After Wei Zifu became pregnant, Liu Che seemed to have received some kind of encouragement, and went to Shanglin Garden with a few beauties. As for Shu Yun, he didn't bother to join in the fun, so he stayed in the palace now and began to think about what to do. Climb the tech tree.In this era, although many black technologies have appeared, such as non-rusting bronze swords, and rail vehicles in the Qin Dynasty, the problem is that there is no systematic industrial system. Shu Yun sometimes Think of something, and then look again, the prerequisites are not satisfied at all, and you have to study other things. Shu Yun doesn't have a deep understanding of many things in this era, so he can only write down what he knows , and then start to push forward one by one, list all the preconditions, and then see what can be done now.
In the end, Shu Yun found that the easiest thing to do was to make a fuss about agriculture. The bean products and flour that Shu Yun made before have proved to be very successful. After the New Year, many people switched to wheat instead of Corn and millet.In the land of Jingchu in the south, rice has already been planted. Shu Yun wondered whether rice can also be planted in Guanzhong. You must know that the climate in Guanzhong is still relatively warm. Shu Yun saw Gun Gun in Shanglinyuan last time. Well, even if it's not warm, wouldn't future generations in Northeast China still be able to grow rice?It's nothing more than a longer growth period.Therefore, it is more reasonable to plant rice in summer and winter wheat in winter to harvest two crops a year.Nowadays, in Guanzhong, they only plant for one season. If they don't go to the fields, they will have to go fallow.Planting two seasons of grain requires more advanced farming techniques. The most important thing is to fertilize the land. Otherwise, ordinary land cannot withstand such continuous cultivation, and no matter how good the field is, it will not be so fertile.
The other is the agricultural infrastructure, such as some waterwheels and bobbins. Of course, there are prerequisites here, and local officials need to cooperate with the construction of various water conservancy facilities. There are not so many canals and canals these days. Many of the water systems used in the canal transportation system known to later generations of Shu Yun were excavated in the Qin and Han Dynasties, and have gone through several generations of emperors. In this era, if these things are done casually, if they are not done well, it will be the same as Emperor Sui Yang opened up canals , Turning around can stink your reputation.However, in the land of Guanzhong, the water system is still relatively developed, so it can be done first.
In addition, it is to see if we can introduce various fresh crops from the Western Regions. Zhang Qian has not yet been sent to the Western Regions. Naturally, he has not been able to open up the Silk Road. There is still a Xiongnu standing between many small countries in the Western Regions and the Han Dynasty. The Xiongnu themselves did not know how to farm, so whatever they wanted, they just robbed it and forced those small countries in the Western Regions to contribute.Therefore, even if those merchants smuggle, they cannot get these works from the Huns.
