Chapter 1422 First Opportunity
Princess Pingyang Mansion.
Princess Taiping Li Lingyue came in with a smile, "Mother, good news. The parliament has just passed the edict of His Majesty to appoint his mother as King of Annan. The fief of Annan is Annan and the territory is thousands of miles."
"Isn't Annan in Jiaozhou?"
"This Annan is not the original Jiaozhou, but is in the south of New Vietnam, to the west of Sriver's death."
After saying this, Li Xiuning immediately knew where the new fief he wanted to renew was. The island south of Lijiapo was across the strait.
There is the Kingdom of Saliver on the island, but the island is extremely large, and the Kingdom of Saliver only occupies a small part. In the west of the island, there is still the territory of many natives.
She was originally a Vietnamese prince who owned the Golden Peninsula. This time she was promoted to King Annan and replaced to the south. The land of the Golden Peninsula is now classified as the direct jurisdiction of the imperial court and is Vietnamese.
The original Jiaozhou and other places were Guangnan Road of the imperial court, and Linyi and Funan Road to the south were both Funan Road.
Guangdong, Guangxi, Guangnan, Funan, Vietnam, Annan, and South China Sea.
The five roads are directly under the jurisdiction of the country, and there is only one Annan Road, which is currently enfeoffed by Li Xiuning and several royal families on that big island.
"Isn't that with your brother's fief?" Li Xiuning said with a smile. Zhang Shiyilang Zhang Cong was already named King of Anyuan at this time, and this Anyuan Kingdom is on that big island, just one point east of Li Xiuning's Annan Kingdom.
Li Xiuning's Annan Kingdom was actually Aceh on the Sumatra Island in later generations, while Li Cong's Anyuan Kingdom was in Medan, North Sumatra Province next to him.
The fiefs of the mother and son are both sealed together, which is considered to be particularly caring for.
"That's great." Pingyang smiled.
Princess Taiping smiled and said, "My sister and I are also next to you."
Their titles of princess are still preserved.
"Mother, didn't my father say that he would take you into the palace and give you the title of imperial concubine? Why don't you want to enter the palace?"
Pingyang smiled and said, "Isn't this good now? If I don't enter the palace, I will become a king, the female king. If you don't enter the palace, you will be princesses."
"Then are we going to the fiefdom? We are so reluctant to leave Hanjing, and we have long been used to everything here. It is said that there are so many fierce natives on Annan Island, and that Sriva died very fiercely."
Li Lingyue didn't care much about the fiefdoms of the big islands in the distant Southeast Asian Sea, and she was unwilling to leave her life.
It is so prosperous here, and her brother Huaiyu is also there.
Qin Huaiyu just won the title of Duke of Jinshan this time, and his fief is far away in the grassland. In the future, he will inherit the title of Qin Qiong of Gandhara King. At that time, he will be King of Gandhara and Duke of Jinshan, and he can also pass the title of Duke of Jinshan to his second son. In this way, the eldest son will inherit the title of Duke of King of Jinshan in the future, and the second son will inherit the title of Duke of Jinshan.
However, whether it is the Kingdom of Gandhara, which is far away in the credibility or the Principality of Jinshan on the grassland, Li Lingyue actually doesn't like it very much.
She still likes this place very much, likes the prosperous Hanjing.
"Mother, can I stay in Hanjing without going to the fiefdom?"
"You are old and are almost the age to get married. Then I will tell your father, and you can stay in Hanjing to prepare your dowry and marry Huaiyu as soon as possible." Pingyang said to his daughter tolerantly.
He sent his son to the Zhang Mansion when he beat him, and Pingyang became more and more doting on these two daughters.
"Your father has prepared a palace courtyard for you in the palace. If you want to live in the palace, you can send a message to ask your father to send someone to pick you up in the palace for a while. But remember that you have to abide by the rules when you are in the palace and don't let the queen scold her."
"I know, my daughter will definitely not embarrass you."
·······
Zhang Yue looked at his new account and was very dissatisfied.
Zhang Yue, the prince of Heishui, what is this title? What made him even more dissatisfied was that his fief was actually in the distant northeast, on the territory of the Heishui tribe of the Marine tribe, on both sides of a river that was frozen for half the year.
The Hei Shui County and the Kingdom of Hei Shui are now the wild boars and wolves. It is said that the place is more than 6,000 miles away, and almost 7,000 miles away from Hanjing.
It takes 70 days to catch a hundred miles a day. In fact, if you leave Liaodong, there is no good road in the north. There is still half the time for a year to block mountains and roads. The fastest one is not to take land, but to take sea routes, take a boat around North Korea, and then reach the mouth of the Heihe River, sail up for another 1,500 miles to reach the intersection of the Heishui River and the Meituo River, and Fuyuan is there.
However, Fuyuan is actually only known for its name, and there is no such city at all.
This city has to wait until he, the prince of Hei Shui, passes by, and he has to rely on himself to repair it.
The scenery of the north is filled with ice for thousands of miles and snow for thousands of miles.
When Zhang Yue thought of this, he couldn't sit still anymore.
"Prepare a car, I will enter the palace to face the holy."
Royal Palace.
Zhang Yue sat in front of Zhang Chao with grievance. He had always been afraid of this brother, even more so than Zhang Tieqin.
He mustered up the courage to ask, "Brother, what mistake did I make? I want to exile me to the frozen land of the northern country? It's seven thousand miles away. If I go around the sea, I'll probably have to sail thousands of miles. I may not be able to come back once this year."
Zhang Chao said with a smile, "In the future, the court can stipulate that the princes within three thousand miles of the Han capital must enter the capital to gather once a year. The princes within three thousand to five thousand miles can enter the capital to gather once every two years. The princes within five thousand miles can enter the capital to gather once every three years. You can come back once every three years."
"Brother!" Zhang Yue became anxious.
"Why? What did I do wrong?"
Zhang Chao patted the brother on the shoulder. This brother was just doting when he was young, but he was the same age as Zhang Jing, but his ability was far inferior.
"You did nothing wrong. I entrust you seven to the Northeast, which is also of great significance. This is not a punishment. First of all, you must understand. As my brothers and the royal family of the Dahua Dynasty, you must also bear corresponding responsibilities while enjoying this honor and power."
"What is your responsibility? It is to protect Dahua. Although the winter is long and the winter is cold, it is actually a good place. It is not an exaggeration to say a fish and rice land. The land there can sprout, and it is all black soil. Our Sinong Temple has cultivated rice, soybeans and other crops that can be planted in."
"And it's very rich, you can beat roe deer and scoop fish. Do you understand this? There are many preys there, and silly roe deer can even use big sticks, and there are more fish in the river, so you can use a scoop to scoop fish."
"It is not a place of exile that cannot survive. Although the Marines in the Black Water Ministry are relatively primitive and barbaric, they have no skills, they do not know how to plant rice, nor do they know how to grow cotton, nor do they know how to make cotton robes, cotton shoes, and build kangs, and keep warm houses."
Zhang Chaoyu enlightened his brothers with a serious emphasis.
The conditions in the northeast are indeed extraordinary and most people cannot get used to it, but it is a good place and has always been a nation with strong folk customs.
The Marines lived there, barbaric and powerful. Many Marines from the Black Water Ministry even wore fish-skin jackets and used wild boar skin as armor. They lived in shacks with extremely simple deer spears and other weapons, but they could survive there.
If Zhang Yue goes there, he will have better conditions.
Build a castle, placing a kang, including cotton robes and cotton shoes, and even leather jackets and sweaters to prevent cold. There will also be more advanced bows, knives and muskets, which can have advanced fishing technology, boats and fishing nets.
They can grow rice, soybeans, and breed them there.
There is no problem with self-sufficiency. If you cooperate with fishing and hunting, you can say that you can live a very comfortable life. Even in the long winter, what about thick snow?
Not to mention, if a large ship passes through the sea and can often supply supplies, the Heilongjiang River is a huge river, and the black soil along both sides of the river has huge potential.
They don’t even have to farm for prey fur, medicinal materials, ores, etc., just put clips in winter to collect clips, save fur for merchants who come to buy them, and then buy various food and other supplies brought by merchants, and they can live a very rich life.
Of course, if you farm and hunt while fishing, and raise some cattle and horses, and deer herds, it would definitely be very good.
"Brother, if our Zhang family does not take over the operation of the northeast, it will be occupied by others in the future. In the past, the Central Plains only had the Liaohe area, so the tribes in the distant Heihe area were difficult to contact with us Han people and rarely traded, so they have always lived a primitive life. But now the court has opened up to northern Liao, and in the future, tribes in those places further north will trade more and more with us, and they will gradually become smarter, become civilized, and become stronger little by little."
If they don’t contact them, they will have to develop themselves forever. They may have lived a primitive life without much change for thousands of years. But when the Han civilization infiltrated, they will soon achieve leapfrog development.
It is necessary for the Zhang family to seize the opportunity and go to build a city and divide the brigade as soon as possible.
Taking advantage of the good opportunity of the Marx people being scared and afraid of the Central Plains, they were enfeoffed and managed slowly. This is the way to make a plan forever.
"It is the territory of the savages of the Hei Shui tribes. The savages of the Hei Shui tribes are much more barbaric than the Kaihua Baishan tribes. How could they tolerate us going?"
"Don't worry, when you go there, you can trade more with them and have a gentle attitude. The court has already sent envoys to negotiate with their chiefs. They have accepted the official positions granted to them by the court and have also accepted the court's request to establish a feudal state there."
In fact, many Marine people do not even have a unified concept of ethnicity. The so-called Marine is just a general term for the indigenous people living in a large area of the Northeast, while the Baishan tribe and the Black Water tribe are just a relatively different division of the two life traditions.
The Baishui and HeiShui tribes are actually divided into many tribes, basically based on blood ties or other life traditions.
These Marines themselves also often start wars, fight for hunting grounds, and eat. They don’t have any concepts of Marines, and they may not even have the concepts of Marines and the Black Mountain tribe. Compared with Khitan and Goguryeo, the Marines are indeed savages, compared with the tribes that have been in contact with more people from the Central Plains civilization neighbors, Marines are indeed savages.
However, the Sumo tribe and other people in the Baishan tribe in the west have more contact with foreign civilizations, so they are more civilized. The Heishui tribes in the northeast are more barbaric.
But even a barbaric barbarian is more likely to be tempted by immediate interests.
Zhang Chao sent people to give them some gifts casually, and then said some good words and made some promises. After the Marine tribes revered the powerful strength of the Central Plains and coveted the exquisite gifts and beautiful promises given by the Central Plains. So he happily agreed to all the requests made by Dahua.
