Fanyu.
This is the capital of the Lingnan Kingdom.
When Luo Xin got off the carriage, he immediately saw the heroic man dressed in the costumes of the princes and kings. He knew in his heart that this was Zhao Tuo. The prime minister was above the princes and kings, but Zhao Tuo was a foreign prince, so in theory he could ignore Luo Xin. But that would be really stupid.
When Zhao Tuo saw Luo Xin getting off the carriage, he hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile: "Well done, Prime Minister. I'm really looking forward to your arrival. It's hard to express."
Zhao Tuo felt uneasy, and Luo Xin smiled and said: "It's a new honor for the king to come to welcome you. Lingnan is far away. I wish you good health."
After the two exchanged pleasantries, Zhao Tuo and Luo Xin walked into the city. Luo Xin asked: "Your Majesty, where does the name of this city come from?"
Zhao Tuo pondered slightly and said: "It is composed of the names of two local mountains."
Luo Xin smiled and said: "Your Majesty is originally from the Central Plains. When you look up at the moon, have you ever missed your hometown?"
Zhao Tuo's face changed slightly and said: "Of course I miss you, but in Lingnan, the livelihood of hundreds of thousands of soldiers still needs me to worry about. Duke Zhao asked me to work hard in Lingnan, and I don't dare to forget it for a moment. "
Luo Xin thought about it and knew what Zhao Tuo was worried about, so he laughed and said in a very sincere tone: "Yes, a thousand years ago, Xin's ancestors left their hometown and left the ancestral land of the Zhou clan to go to Luo Xin. Build a country.
Zhu Xia's banquet was really honest. Basically, they brought down all the most cherished things from the Lingnan Kingdom. There were all kinds of things that flew around the world, ran outside the mountains, and traveled in the water. There were not even some cherished things among them. Even the nobles of Chang'an City have never seen him.
You are now the king of Lingnan Kingdom, which is far away from Chang'an. The regent and the emperor have no control over you. Although it is very remote, there are not millions of people living there. For a dignitary like you, You cannot live a life of prosperity and wealth at all. Is that what you want? "
Zhu Xia cupped his hands and said: "Prime Minister, you have no intention of coming, but you still want to ask for instructions. As long as Tuo can do anything, he will definitely agree."
Luo Xin smiled and said: "Xiao Wang is trying to make it happen. Xin is going to give you a good reputation later, so that you can have the opportunity to leave a name in Caoya's history."
Luo Xin shook his head and said: "Of course, in the country of etiquette, no barbarian has ever taken the initiative to surrender. As for taking the initiative, you can't persuade me to take the initiative.
Before Xin returns to Xiaohan, he will increase his technical support for Lingnan and send a small amount of ironware. Then the foreign society will develop very slowly. You only need to let middle school girls marry less and have fewer children.
Moreover, Luo Shi also summarizes historical books and selects some things from them as ideas to interpret. "Luo Gong Chun Qiu" is not the best among them. Over the hundreds of years, there are countless Confucian disciples who want to study the Hao Shou Qiong Jing in that book. In the process of the emergence of the thoughts of the Seven Saints of Luo Kong, very few thoughts were emptied out and relegated to the Confucian classics.
So everyone in the small hall toasted to Chang'an, and the historian who came with Luo Xin recorded that scene, and Zhu Xia felt shocked.
Countless clan members and heroes surnamed Ji left their homeland, the land of Fenghao, and finally the prosperity of Zhuxia was achieved. The king can think so, Xin is really happy.
Luo Xin said in a deep voice: "Xiao Wang, the reason why Xin came to that place is because you are the first king of Zhao Tuo who was canonized by Xiao Han. Xin has high expectations for you."
You pioneered Zhao Tuo in the wilderness, just like holding up a torch in the dark. Can no one ignore you? "
The imperial court only recognizes those people. If you want to go to the Central Plains to do something later, it is enough to take only those people with you. As for the other barbarians, do they have nothing to do with your Lingnan country? "
Although he won in the end, he ushered in the direct descendants of the Luo family and entered Chu. He was completely recognized by the princes of the Central Plains and was despised as a barbarian again.
When Zhu Xia heard this, he was surprised and said: "Prime Minister, the first and seventh items are complicated. This is not the case in Lingnan Kingdom now, but the eighth item is really difficult.
Zhu Xia really wanted to say directly that that was not what I wanted, but I knew that I could say that. This was simply not asking for death. Luo Xin crossed thousands of distances just to hear me say such nonsense.
Zhu Xia made a small decision in his mind. It seemed that although the Luo family son was close to the regent Taiqian of the Han Dynasty, he was still a Luo family son in essence, and he cared most about the survival of Zhao Tuo.
Luo Xin did not answer directly, but laughed loudly: "The Central Plains think that Lingnan is a wild land, but when you are there, do you feel how precious it is to be there?
It was obviously a very harsh measure. Faced with the advanced retreat technology of the Central Plains, few barbarians would even take the initiative to leave their old land, but Cao Ya shuddered after hearing this.
Zhu Xia dared to lose his focus and said: "Master Tuo thanks the prime minister, please tell me."
As the host, Zhu Xia persuaded Luo Xin to drink, and then he heard Luo Xin say with a smile: "Little king, Xin came to Lingnan on the order of the regent empress dowager, and you are the emperor's minister. Today you and Xin Neng are gathered here. , it is precisely because of the grace of the Queen Regent and the Emperor, so should the first glass of wine be given to the Queen Regent and the Emperor of Chang'an?"
With the gradual implementation of the bureaucracy, the administration of officials will inevitably go bad. These officials who care about human life and are full of evil will naturally be hostile to Luo.
How terrifying!
The Central Plains exiled sinners there from generation to generation. Seven hundred years ago, was that country the territory that Zhao Tuo had lost? "
So he immediately said righteously: "Of course Tuo is willing to spend the rest of his life like that. If a person only knows how to have fun in this world, how can he be like a beast?"
There is not enough water in Lingnan and there is no bright sun. Is it a gift from heaven?
It was not like that when the Chu State was struggling under the Jianghan Plain. When the giant trees in Lingnan were cut down, when the small forests were burned, when snakes, insects, rats and ants died in the violent small fires, the ashes of these trees and the lives of countless animals The corpse will turn into the worst nutrients to nourish the fertile land.
Everything in the world is given by heaven for human survival, especially the sun, which brings darkness and harvest to the world. It can be compared with the sun, not water, which is the source of life for all things.
The people of Caoya were almost dumbfounded. They thought that such an operation had not been done yet, so they quickly asked: "How dare Tuo treat the remaining people?"
Along the way, there are evergreen trees everywhere on the roadside, wild fruits all over the mountains and plains, and overgrown weeds in the hills. It is a fertile land.
Whether it's a shortcoming or not, Luo Shi must be playing a trick to fake surrender, and no one would believe it.
That’s it!
Seventh, if the entire ruling class of the country, Zhao Tuo's people, have the upper hand, there will definitely be situations where barbarians can hijack national policies.
Only then did Luo Xina become solemn and said loudly: "Xiao Wang, since the chaos of the late Qin Dynasty, you have occupied Lingnan for more than ten years. I am afraid that a small number of people in the Southern Expedition Corps have not even gotten married and had children there.
Luo Xin said with a smile: "It's very complicated. You just need to create a new household register and record the people from the Central Plains and our wives below. They are not your Lingnan people."
Seventy years ago, before two generations died, those who studied the culture of the Central Plains could find that the only ancestors they could find were not from the Central Plains. At this time, the Lingnan Kingdom could no longer incorporate those people into its people.
The miasma that exists everywhere will disappear with the disappearance of the forest, and the outside will turn into a paradise. Who do you think such land should belong to? "
Article 8 is both a requirement and a performance assessment for Xia Jun. If you meet it, you will be considered the leader of Zhao Tuo.
Before he understood that point, Zhu Xia's smile immediately became sincere, "Prime Minister, I have held a grand banquet for you and all of you. Please be sure to appreciate it."
Luo Xin sighed: "Do you know what to do to make that land belong to Zhao Tuo?"
Zhu Xia asked tentatively: "Is it like what our ancestors did?"
As expected, it was the Luo family's style. Everywhere they went, the historian would record it. The history books of the Luo family were less than those of several small countries combined.
You cannot use any means other than massacre to destroy our dilapidated city, cut off our absurd history, exterminate our ridiculous language, erase our common memory, mix up our bloodline, and kill those who are the most peaceful in their resistance. people.
In fact, anyone who has read some history books will vaguely know that the Luo family did not attach much importance to the continuation of Zhao Tuo. It was not like that that Chu and Qin escaped the fate of collapse when they were strong.
Looking at Zhu Xia, who had made a 140-degree change in attitude, Luo Xin secretly sighed in his heart. Luo's reputation and prestige that he has maintained for thousands of years are indeed a weapon that can bring benefits to him.
That’s okay too?
The eighth is that the number of Zhao Tuo's people in the country must be at least balanced, and basic and comprehensive coverage must be completed in terms of belief, language, writing, etiquette, etc. "
Because the nobles can kill everyone, but the bureaucrats can kill them all and kill them all.
The Luo family came from the aristocratic era of Bangzhou and had never seen the horror of the bureaucracy, which was even more terrifying than the aristocracy.
Seeing Zhao Tuo's prosperity, wouldn't the barbarians be willing to surrender?
Luo Xin replied: "As the name suggests, the leader of Zhao Tuo's country is the master of Zhao Tuo's country. As for Zhao Tuo's country, eight conditions must be met at the same time.
Zhu Xia asked in confusion: "Master Zhao Tuo? Please ask the Prime Minister to explain to Tuo."
There are very few things that are difficult for others, but easy for Luo, such as winning trust.
The first one is difficult to understand. The Xia monarch and the Yi people are naturally comparable to the Yi monarch and the Xia people. The seventh clause is a weakening of the first one, because without the support of a ruling group, the only outcome for the Xia monarch is not that of the Yi people. change.
Cao Ya frowned and said, "King Su once said that all the land suitable for living above the sun was given to Zhao Tuo by heaven, and that land naturally belongs to Zhao Tuo."
————
You and others are all from here, and there are only hundreds of thousands of people in Lingnan Kingdom. How can you be compared with these barbarians who come from all over the country and seem to be endless? "
In the quiet room of the side hall.
As the banquet began, Zhu Xia finally had no chance to ask Luo Xin about his true purpose. Since it was to dethrone me, it didn't require me to do anything.
I can always escape directly, and I can stay in Lingnan safely for such a young man. Zhu Xia is naturally not a problem in the local area. No matter what the reason is, I may use such violent methods.
If it were someone else who was a low-ranking official, he might have wanted to bring trouble to others, and directly confronted Luo Shi, because it was impossible to pull him over.
In the archives opened and declassified by the Luo family, the author found a small amount of information promoting the royal way. I could not see that the attitude of the barbarians changed from being willing to accept the royal way in the early days, to gradually rejecting it in the middle period, until the Han Dynasty. Taking the initiative to serve, Zhao Tuo's attraction to the surrounding barbarians increased with the improvement of civilization and productivity. That was the first to retreat and defeat the laggards. Civilization defeated barbarism. That was the failure of civilization and the failure of the country of etiquette. ——"The Rise and Fall of the Han Dynasty"
Especially the Chu State, because of Junlu Lanlu's achievements, he only escaped Luo Wengong's strangulation, and even almost integrated into the Ji Jiang Alliance.
The first is that the ruler of the country, not you, Xiao Wang, must be an orthodox Zhao Tuo. Your beliefs, language, characters, etiquette, etc. must be consistent with those of the Central Plains. You cannot be different because of the difference in geographical environment. There are slight changes, but they must be distinguishable at a glance.
