Chapter 1577 Second Prince
Like in previous years, after autumn every year, tax collectors from the court came out everywhere, while princes and officials from all over the country began to enter the capital to gather in court one after another.
Tianzhu.
On the north bank of the Kega River, Shirova East, Guangyan City.
"Have you prepared some clothing?"
"Return to the king, you are ready. According to the king's instructions, we will take the Kejia River waterway and go straight to Yongji Port this time."
By the tenth year of revival, although the Kingdom of Jieji had not been completely conquered by Dahua, by this year, the Kha River, which is an important river of the Ganges, had been opened by Dahua. Several Kingdoms on both sides of the Ganges were wiped out by the Dahua army, and the navy's ships were able to pass through the river.
From Yongji Port in the eastern Bay of Bengal, the boat can directly reach Guangyan City, where the headquarters of Zhanghui Tianzhu Northern War Zone is located.
In the past, when he returned to the Central Plains, he basically went west to Scheavre, then to Tenisha, then to Gandhara, took a boat to Xinji Port through the Xindu River, and then went out to sea to return to the Central Plains.
Now you can go directly to Yongji on the Kejia River, and take a shorter circle and reduce the number of flights. Especially after the Kejia River route was opened, Zhang Hui also received a large amount of supplies from the court, which was much more convenient.
In recent years, Zhang Hui, as the commander of the Northern War Zone of India, failed to marry the Queen of Jieji, performed well. He acted frequently on the north bank of the Kejia River. After attacking and destroying Shi Luofa, he swept eastward to several vassal states such as Guangyan City.
"Have you brought that Moji fish with you?" Zhang Hui asked.
After staying in Tianzhu for many years, he became much more calm.
"Do you really want to bring that weird fish with you? It's a bit too strange."
The Moji fish that Zhang Hui asked the commander of the guard to bring back to Beijing was a very strange fish. The fish had eighteen heads and thirty-six eyes. The eighteen heads were different, with someone's heads elephant horse heads, etc.
Of course, the fish Zhang Hunrang brought was not a live fish, but a large fish sculpture, made of gold, with eighteen heads vivid and vivid. It was created by a craftsman in Guangyan City in the past. It was very exquisite.
There is a legendary story in this head. It is said that Yu was a Brahmin scholar named Jie Bira. His father failed to provoke the disciples of Tathagata and died of depression. In order to argue, he pretended to become a monk and became a monk. He learned but understood the doctrine and attained the fruit in the end. He still couldn't argue.
Later, his mother gave him an idea, that if he couldn't argue, he would scold the monks, and the monks would not refute because they did not speak badly. In this way, the onlookers would think that the monks were defeated, so they were silent so that they could win.
Jiebiluo acted according to his plan and used eighteen kinds of evil words to scold the monks during the debate, and he finally won the victory of the debate. However, he also planted evil consequences. His mother vomited blood and died and fell into hell. After his death, he was also reborn as the eighteen Mojiyu.
Zhang Hui naturally didn't believe this legend, but he also felt that this story was a bit of a warning. In addition, he knew that the emperor's favorite was not the gold, silver and jewelry from other places, nor was it the beauty from other places. The emperor liked various books, pictures, sculptures, etc. from other places, and cultural artworks, even Buddhist scriptures and statues.
The emperor did not believe in gods and Buddhas very much. Zhang Hui knew that the emperor liked the cultures of people of all countries and ethnic groups.
The Grand Library of the Capital of Hanjing collected scrolls of books and paintings from all over the world, and even many rock paintings and rubbings. In Hanjing, there is also a very famous translation pavilion, which translates books from all ethnic groups into Chinese and preserves them.
Then there is a special book editorial agency that organizes many scholars to compile some of the useful knowledge and attract them to Dahua's new Confucian system to enrich the disciplines of astronomy, geography, mathematics, history, philosophy, art, music and other disciplines in New Confucianism.
The emperor invested a lot of money in it every year. If the governors and commanders and generals from all over the country were given gifts to the emperor, they would not be rewarded, and they would be scolded even if they could get some books back, especially some precious books, etc., they would definitely be rewarded.
Although golden treasures like Mojiyu are not books, they are also considered treasures with cultural and artistic value.
"This time the king returns to Beijing, will His Majesty be appointed as King of Heaven?" asked the chief guard.
Zhang Hui just smiled.
He used to be really looking forward to being awarded the title of King of Heaven or King of Jie Ri. At that time, he thought that he had this qualification and should also receive this reward.
But in a blink of an eye, I am almost thirty years old, and I have been in India for many years.
Although it did not sweep the north of the Ganges River, it did break through the northern part of the middle and upper reaches of the Ganges River. With Nipola, Zhang Hun had wiped out the Thirteen Kingdoms around the years.
The Thirteen Kingdoms have big and small, but if the emperor promised him back then, his fiefdom would never be small.
However, in recent years, every time he captured a country, the emperor did give him a fiefdom, but it was not connected with his original Nibau fiefdom, but was assigned to him in the newly captured country. So far, Zhang Hun has thirteen fiefdoms, but they are all scattered, and they are indeed quite small, but after such a scattering, they seem to be fragmented.
It is impossible to get the emperor to adjust his fiefdom and get it together.
He now understands that some things are too much. In the past two years, he has not fought as hard as before. He destroyed the Thirteen Kingdoms and was the most accomplished in the Four War Zones of India. If he fought hard, it would be a bit too hard.
The enthusiasm for siege and land was a little smaller, but the enthusiasm for having children has not diminished in recent years.
Until now, Zhang Hui has taken over a dozen wives and concubines, and has given birth to more than twenty children. In this regard, he has gained the true teachings of the Zhang family and has flourished his descendants.
"Brother, tell you, I don't care about this Indian king now. Anyway, yours is yours, not yours, and I can't force you to do so. Now my sons are thirteen, and I don't need yourselves to bring together my fiefdoms. In the future, my thirteen sons will be given a fiefdom for each of them. If you have the ability, you will take a big piece of big piece, and if you don't have the ability, you will take a small piece."
The guard was stunned.
Zhang Hui knew that his decision would probably make his eldest son and the emperor's father very happy.
Whether it is the royal kings or the marquises of different surnames, Zhang Hui now has the most fiefdoms and is very strong. If the thirteen fiefs are connected together, it will have great influence in the entire India, even the Snow Mountain Plateau.
If this is true, who can rest assured?
But if his fiefdom was thirteen scattered and he would be distributed to his thirteen sons in the future, then the court would be able to rest assured.
"King, these fiefs have been worked hard by you."
"You are right, but the whole world belongs to the emperor. Now the emperor is my father, the emperor will be my elder brother in the future, and the emperor will be my elder nephew in the future. Anyway, under the rule of the clan, the main branch has the right to inherit, and it is no other person's turn."
When he was a teenager, Zhang Hui felt that it was unfair. Why did Zhang Jing just be born so sooner than him, but he became the prince and prince?
When he was twenty years old, he felt that he could still fight.
But now, he no longer has that heart.
The emperor is still so young and the prince is so outstanding. Although he is not weak in performance, the gap is still very obvious compared to the prince. What's more, no matter what aspect, he can't compare with the prince. He has better abilities than the prince and has more support from the prince.
Especially now that the prince returned to Beijing to supervise the country, he performed so well, which even gave him a last thought.
"Sometimes, I envy Governor Wang. He is young and courageous. Because he is a disciple of the emperor, he is deeply trusted. And because he is a royal family, he doesn't have to have too many concerns like me. Look at how happy he has fought in the south of the Kejia River in the past few years. Although he has not conquered many small countries, he has also attacked the Central Tianzhu Plateau and ate a few pieces of meat. It's so satisfying."
The chief guard didn't think so.
"The King General System has been in the trustworthy for many years, and it has become a bit too popular. I heard that some people in the court said they would move him, saying that they would not be the king in the future."
"The great achievements shock you!"
"Fart." Zhang Hui said distractedly, "Wang Xuance is very trusted by my father. Your Majesty will never have any suspicion about him. Those who are worried about the cabinet and the parliament are also the people in the cabinet and the parliament. If I want to tell me, the center of this term is far worse than the previous term."
"Your Highness, most of the centers of this class are still from the previous class, and many of them have just been transferred. From the cabinet to the Hanlin Academy, from the nobles to the cabinet, there has been no change."
"Of course there are also changes. No matter what, the cabinet responsibility system is, the cabinet prime minister is still extremely critical. In the past, Ma Zhou was the prime minister, and he and my father were old partners, and he was quite able to understand the holy intentions. But now Chu Suiliang is the prime minister. Although Chu Suiliang has served as the second prime minister for two terms, it is still a bit worse for him to take the lead as the prime minister. In fact, if I want me to say that it would be better to let Fang Xuanling be the prime minister than to let Chu Suiliang be the prime minister."
The chief guard smiled, "Don't say this from outside. If Chu Suiliang heard it, he wouldn't give you some shoes to wear. I heard that Mr. Chu is a kind of revenge person. He has been serving as prime minister for two years and has excluded many people."
"It's nothing. As a prime minister, you must win over a few helpers and exclude a few opponents. As long as you can't do anything, your Majesty won't say anything."
Zhang Hui pinched his chin and asked the commander of the guard who grew up together, "If Senior Brother Wang really wants to move this time, then I, the commander-in-chief of the Northern War Zone, will not be able to continue to be the commander-in-chief of the Northern War Zone. After returning to Beijing, I will resign and take the initiative to resign from the commander-in-chief of the Northern War Zone. Anyway, the country of Jiji is almost done. Anyone who joins, will succeed. We have to give the prime ministers, scholars and deans the central government a chance, so that they can arrange for their own people to come and pick some cheap things, pick peaches, etc., so that they can be more sensible and happy."
