0102 Young King and God
The capital of the gods, Luoyang, is divided into north and south through Luoshui, and the south is divided into east and west by Changxiamen Street.
The city on the west side includes Zhufang District, including Dingdingmen Tianjie, where many officials and powerful people gather. To the east of Changxiamen Street, there is Shendu South City and Zhufang Houses, which are extremely prosperous. Although the overall layout of Luoyang City is not as straight and symmetrical as that of the Chang'an City in Xijing, it is adapted to local conditions and the use of geographical elements is more ingenious.
The three kings including Siyong came out of the palace. The court followed the old rules and awarded the first Luxinfang, located in the southeast of the Shendu City.
The three kings Yijia walked across the Luoshui River at Xinzhong Bridge and entered Changxiamen Street, Nancheng. At this time, the team had hundreds of followers originally under the ban, plus hundreds of soldiers from the Zuo Jinwu Guard and Xue Huaiyi brought out from the Nanya, and the scale had reached nearly a thousand people, which was vast and very eye-catching.
Changxiamen Street is more than 30 meters wide, with canal isolation yards on both sides and planted with locust willows. The huge team is not narrow when walking on the street. The Jinwu Guards were called by Xue Huaiyi to temporarily fill the street with Jingjie, and guided them in front of them, chasing all the passers-by on both sides of the road. Those pedestrians saw such a huge ceremonial war, and they were also talking about it for a while.
"If it weren't for Master Xue's charity, this trip would have been a rare glory."
Li Tong was half a horse behind Xue Huaiyi. Looking at the Jinwu Guards ahead with dark faces, he felt a gimmick in his heart, and was full of gratitude for Xue Huaiyi to come to help.
As early as when the ban was in the process, he had already foreseen that it would be bad if he left the palace, so he made an agreement with Xue Huaiyi a few days ago.
After hearing this, Xue Huaiyi laughed and pointed at the Jinwu Guards running in front of him and snorted coldly: "Qiu is a savage instructing such a lowly street soldier to show off his might, and he really underestimated the world's people. I, Wang and others, have a public and private friendship, how can I sit and see the murderer be so arrogant!"
Walking along the way, the scenery in Luozhong appeared one after another. Before, Li Tong lived in the forbidden area and felt that his experience was boring and monotonous. Now he was finally able to walk out of the forbidden area and admired the scenery of the gods with hunger and eagerness.
Their group left the Xuanwu Gate of the Palace City, and bypassed the Hui'an Gate of the North City, and traveled south. The trip ran through most of Luoyang City, and saw many scenery. The special team went to several adjacent fangs in Nanshi. Although they could not enter the scenic spots of the market, the pedestrian style of the world that was seen in the long street made Li Tong look dazzling.
When the special team arrived at Xiushanfang, southwest of the south city, there was a congestion on the wide long street. About hundreds of pack horse trucks were driven by the Jinwu Guards on Jing Street and could not move forward or retreat. They were mixed in the street. The Wuhou Shop, a scattered messenger in the Wuhou Shop, rushed to rectify the order. It took half an hour before traffic was restored.
After that, the team continued to move forward and turned to Yongtongmen Beiheng Street. The street was not as wide as Changxiamen Street. The team was lengthened and they looked around about a mile away from each other.
When he arrived here, the prosperity of the market was slightly reduced. I don’t know if it was normal or if the streets were notified, and he cleaned the street in advance. Li Tong looked around and saw that the officials in the market had fewer residences, which was quite interesting to be quiet and peaceful.
Xue Huaiyi had already complained, pointing to several guided officials in the team and scolded: "Why are you so negligent when you have a plan? Your name is Wang Tiansun, but he actually set up a residence in such a remote place!"
After hearing this, several guide officials just bowed their heads and dared not say anything. However, Li Tong laughed and said that the state of tranquility can cultivate his ambition and expose this festival. But in fact, he was also in a hilarious heart. After leaving the palace, he was arranged in such a remote location, and I am afraid that someone would do anything bad.
The team traveled west and passed the Sanfang area and finally arrived at Luxinfang where the Sanwang Mansion was located. The Yi River flowed outside the yard, and weeping willows were planted on both sides of the waterway. A buoyant bridge connected the streets. Nearly a hundred people stood here in front of the bridge.
Looking at the sky again, it was already dusk, and it took half a day to go on the journey! Although there was a slow ceremonial ceremony, it was also evident that Luxinfang was located in a remote location.
"The humble king He Wang and his country, all the people of the palace, welcome the three kings to their residence!"
The Yijia was still walking slowly, and the crowd in front of the bridge had already moved to meet him. They were all assisted by the officials of the Three Kingdoms. The first official in the robe was also an old acquaintance. He Wang, the Fengge General Officer of the Literature Museum in the case, and he was also the chief of the Siyong Palace.
Previously, Li Tong negotiated with Yousi in the Jinzhong and did not want to enfeoff the country. The royal palace arranged too many officials and assistants, but it could not be completely recommended but not set. The hundreds of people in front of him were the result of streamlining and retaining.
Among them, there were more than a dozen officials and assistants of the ranks, and the rest were the guards of the royal palace and the servants of the officials. Moreover, even the people brought out by Xue Huaiyi from the Southern Ya were the body guards that Li Tong entrusted him to choose from the Southern Ya guards.
The reason why it is so large is not that their grandmother takes special care of them, but that the etiquette system is like this. And speaking of this is still the scale that has been simplified after several times of simplification.
The best treatment of the zong king of the Tang Dynasty was naturally during the early Tang Dynasty when the business was just settled. Li Tang was originally the leader of the Guanlong clan. In order to separate the power and balance the powerful Guanlong tyrants, he did not deliberately suppress the zong kings' own selfish forces. Not to mention the strongest prince Li Jiancheng at that time, the three prefectures of Qin Li Shimin and Qi Li Yuanji, the other zong kings also had strong private forces.
Li Shimin became the presidency, and then the Zhenguan rule began, and the vassal forces were gradually eliminated. During the reign of Emperor Gaozong, this national policy was followed, and the Empress Wu was even more so. But even if it was weakened to the present, Li Tong and his three brothers succeeded the king and the county prince. If the officials and the officials followed the order, there would still be more than 30 officials in their respective countries.
Now it is still due to the special period. King Li Tangzong was in a sensitive situation, and Li Tong tried his best to shirk it. However, the three kings were granted a country and there were still more than a dozen members of the royal palace. Compared with the early Tang Dynasty, it was naturally a poor low-end, but if compared with the Kaiyuan period, it was still extremely rich.
Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty, Li Longji, not only became a palace, but even experienced many palace transformations. His direct team was cultivated in Qiandi. Because of this, after Kaiyuan, all the princes and subordinates were abolished, and the kings were concentrated on their care, so that they would not give you the opportunity to develop power and cause trouble.
The three kings dismounted and accepted the worship of the officials. According to the rules, these officials and assistants of the royal palace should actually go outside Xuanwu Gate to welcome the three kings out of the palace and return to their residence.
But Li Tong considered that Qiu Shenjie or the Wu family would give them a warning today, if Xue Huaiyi did not come to support the scene, he would be humiliated and embarrassed in front of these officials and assistants, and he would have no majesty and would not be able to defend himself. Therefore, the previous content of the dispute was that the officials and assistants of the royal palace were not allowed to greet him outside the gate of the palace.
After a brief ceremony with each other, the Three Kings and Xue Huaiyi walked into the yard surrounded by officials and assistants. The three kings' mansions were placed together, occupying one-third of the fang area of Luxinfang. They were located on Fangnei Middle Street. At first glance, the three ritual gates were grand and halberds were lined up in front of the door, which was indeed very majestic.
The three kings are in the palace and the private residence are not the same. The palace is the office of the palace where the lord and the officials are in charge of the hall, and the residence is the private living area of the zong king. Perhaps because the land of Luxinfang is empty and rich, the palace of the three kings is located opposite the residence, separated by a street.
The three kings first took the elders of the Concubine Fang and other members of the inner court to enter the Yong Prince's residence. While the slaves were packing up and settled in, the three kings went to the palace across the street to receive official visits.
The palace is inside and outside, and the room is set up together. The front yard is a place for guests to visit, the atrium is a hall and director, and the back yard is placed with carriages, horses, ceremonies, books and other objects. The palaces of the three kings are in one place, covering an area of more than 30 acres, but they are not cramped.
The three kings sat in the middle hall, and then the officials and assistants came forward to meet each other. Among them, the officials and assistants of the Siyong King Li Shouli were the most complete. In addition to the King He Wang, who also served as the chief minister, there were also Sima, chief clerk, Gongcao and other officials.
Here we will introduce the special characteristics of these officials and assistants. Although national officials have a prefix of a country, they only govern the matter of fence. Relatively speaking, the private songs of retainers are more strong. As for the officials, the officials themselves are a kind of treatment granted by the court, and it is smoother to transfer from external viewing to internal content.
Because of this difference, most people who have expectations for their own political future are not willing to serve as kingdom officials.
It can also be understood as a loyal minister who does not serve as the second master. Once he serves as an official of a certain sect king, his resume will become a stain, which will greatly affect the rise of his normal career, and it is almost impossible to become a formal official of the court.
However, the servants did not have such serious restrictions. Many scholars were promoted to the government and became officials, and being a subordinate of the royal palace was often a good choice.
It can not only form a royal family and aristocrats, but also delay their normal imperial examinations and selections. Even because of this kind of relationship of serving the powerful and powerful, they can often receive a favorable recommendation, and have a better way out when they are given official positions.
For example, Wang Hewang, the chief of the Yongwang Mansion, was a member of Fengge Public Affairs, and he could be said to have entered the sequence of middle-level officials.
But when Li Tong proposed that he would serve as the chief minister of the royal palace, he still accepted it happily, just a name, and didn't have to work too hard. He received an extra salary and received a reward from the palace master. He could maintain a harmonious relationship with the young king without affecting his job.
Speaking of this, we have to talk about Li Tong's dispute over more than a month. In addition to changing his title and real title, the biggest gain was: he went to several of his impressions to be the official assistants of their brothers in a row!
These include Wang Renjiao, Sima of the Yong Palace, Shi Sizhen, chief clerk of the Yong Palace, Huan Yanfan, military officer of the Yong Palace, Zhang Jiazhen, chief of the Hedong Palace, and Liu Youqiu, chief of the Guanghan Palace, etc.
Among these people, Huan Yanfan and Liu Youqiu were both powerful generals in the palace and became prime ministers. Zhang Jiazhen was not only famous prime minister in Kaiyuan, but also became prime ministers for three generations!
Shi Sizhen had nothing to do with Shi Siming during the Anshi Rebellion, but he was also a Hu person. The Hu surname was Ashina and the Turkic royal family. His grandfather Ashinazhong was a general during the reign of Emperor Gaozong. His father Shi Qing inherited the title of Duke Xue and was appointed as the Minister of State.
