Chapter 265: Chang'an City is a Bureau
As the emperor's imperial guard passed through the street, the people along the way bowed down.They are from the heart to respect the emperor, respect the Yang clan.Without the Yang family unifying the Central Plains more than 100 years ago and building a solid and powerful empire, the people ’s lives would not be as leisurely as they are now.A powerful empire is not only a symbol of the glory of the royal family. For the people, the stronger the country, the more stable their lives.
The emperor seemed to enjoy the worship of the people. This feeling of being worshipped as a god made him satisfied and gratified.The Yang family has done so many things for the empire to last for 10,000 years. They have done their best to care for the people without touching the fundamental interests of those families.This is something that the rulers of the previous dynasties and even the previous dynasties of the Central Plains did not do, and it is for this reason that the emperor also firmly believed that the rivers and mountains of the Great Sui Dynasty would be endless.
The oppression of the people is undoubtedly the lowest in the history of civilization for thousands of years.
The people's cry for long live is very sincere, and they are very fond of the people of the emperors of the Sui Dynasty.Even when the impoverished soldiers of the Taizong period made the treasury inadequate and had to increase taxes, they just complained.
The emperor looked at the people and the people.
He raised his hand subconsciously to straighten his crown, his eyes firmer.
No matter who it is, don't want to take these people away from me!
no matter who!
The gong of the opening road was very loud, and the team passed by, and the people immediately fell to their knees.The 108 flying fish robes in the front of Ouchi's guards in front of him moved forward with the sword, majestic.The big red cloak was blown up, looking very imposing.Behind them are the warriors of the Golden Melons who hold various ceremonies, all of whom are burly and strong.Behind them are 500 imprisoned soldiers, who are more solemn in their bright cotton armor.Behind the imprisoned army was your majesty's imperial guard. The imperial guard was surrounded by officers of the imperial army and above, as well as guards from the Ouchi Guards Office.
Behind Yuyun is the accompanying eunuch of the court lady, and behind it is the hundred military and military officials.At the end are 108 cavalry.
The fierce red national flag of Da Sui and the dragon flag representing the royal family fluttered on both sides of the imperial court. The court musician walked in front of the imperial court while playing and beating.
Emperor Yang Yi of Tianyou is a very low-key person, and can even be said to be one of the lowest-key emperors of the Sui Dynasty.This is the first time he has been emphasizing such an expedition in ten years since he became king. Even on the weekdays, the entourage is very simple.So this is the first time people have seen the emperor on such occasions, and everyone is a little excited.
At least tens of thousands of people gathered around the square. They did not take a step beyond the rules. Compared with the crowd, the huge square was even more empty.It is not until the majesty has reached the general stage that the expeditionary army of Zuowuwei will come from a distance, walk around the square and stop to form a square array to accept the emperor's review and training.
The officials of the Department of Rites have been busy working on this for a long time, and now they are at their most nervous time, lest anyone know that there will be no bad fruit if the mistakes have broken today's ceremony.In order not to have an accident, even the courtier Shang Shuhuai Qiu Gong personally came out to preside over the affairs.
A member of the courtroom, Wai Wailang, hurried to Zuowuwei's horse with several men. He wiped the sweat on his forehead and said to General Zuowuwei Yumanlou, "General, don't be scornful. When I pass the square in a while, how do I get there, how to stop, and how to prepare the array? "
General Yu Yulou smiled and said, "Do you think this general can smash today's affairs?"
Li Wailang, a member of the Libe, quickly said with a smile: "Xiaguan doesn't mean that, but he doesn't even trust Huai Lao's heart. He specifically told me to ask the general again."
Yu Manlou said: "Then you go back and tell Huai Lao just, everything has been arranged."
"Oh"
Li Lang, a member of the etiquette, promised to say goodbye after seeing it, and looked at the magnificent team with emotion.This was the first time he saw so many people gather together, and the awe-inspiring military power made him feel a little small.
After he left, he hurried back to Huaiqiu Gong. Although it was still cold in February, he was soaked in sweat.Then I found a place where no one was sitting and kicked my breath. The stretched hand had n’t stretched out, and suddenly someone strangled his neck from behind, and a narrow knife swept across his neck, bloody. It sprayed out at once.
Soon, his body was dragged away.It didn't take long for a man wearing an official uniform that was exactly the same as him to walk out of the place where he was lazy, and quickly merged into the busy officials.No one noticed that there seemed to be a lot of new faces in the servant's service today.
Red sleeves recruited them to sing and dance, of course, also assigned the stage according to the command of the officials of the court.Point to the stage and arrange the stage in sequence, with the red sleeved stage in the center position.Undoubtedly, no one can shake the status of the leader of the red-sleeve dance and dance line.
Several young ritual officials directed the singing and dancing line to stop next to their stage. Today is a golden opportunity for the singing and dancing girls.They have never performed on such an open stage, and one of the audience is still the emperor today.At this time, the people surrounded were afraid that there would be no less than one hundred thousand, and there were so many officials and nobles.Especially the girls in other singing and dancing lines hold their strength and compare with those with red sleeves.Even if it can't be compared, I hope it can elicit the ideas of those big men.
The best ending for them as showgirls and dancers is to be a concubine for a big person.So today they are all dressed up, and they are thinking, if they are lucky, they might be chosen by your majesty to go into the palace.
Naturally, they would not find that the eyes of the officials of the ritual department were always aimed at the opposite counter.
...
...
The emperor's imperial halt stopped outside the square, and the emperor, dressed in costume, waved to the people as he walked off the chariot.The smile on the corner of his mouth is charming, that is the charm of a man who holds the supremacy of the world.He was the emperor of the Great Sui Dynasty and the most powerful person in the entire Central Plains.In addition to Meng Yuan, the emperors of other countries met him as courtesy.
Under the guidance of the eunuch Su Weiwei from the Imperial Academy, the emperor strode towards the general.The hundred officers were divided into two columns according to their civil and military ranks, and they stood around the station.The honorables and royal court officials of the royal lineage followed the emperor to the stage.
Place the dragon chair symbolizing imperial power on the center.
According to the rank and respect, the two people closest to the emperor are Yang Yi, the prince on the left, and Zhou Banchuan, the dean of the Yanwu Academy, on the right.But I don't know why, neither Prince Yi nor Dean Zhou have yet arrived.The emperor who boarded the general did not seem to care at all. He just glanced at the chair on the left side of the dragon chair slightly, and the corner of his mouth was slightly picked.
Before sitting down on the dragon chair, the emperor reached out and pressed down twice, the cheers of the people stopped immediately, and the square of no less than 100,000 people became very quiet.
Huai Qiugong, the presiding clerk who personally presided over the ceremony today, walked to the front and informed the emperor of today's procedures.The emperor nodded, indicating that he could start.
Huai Qiu justified his obedience, and then went to the point and shouted in front of the stage: "The ceremony begins!"
As the sentence shouted, a ceremonial officer standing at a high place immediately waved the flag in his hand.On the street on the north side of the square, there were successive waving flags of court officials. Soon, the general Yu Manlou, who saw the flag dancing, took a deep breath and raised his hand forward.
"Progress, take out the spirit of Zuo Wuwei!"
The first to start was the three thousand cavalry. The sound of horseshoes stepping on the blue stone plate was dense and coherent, just like the sound of heavy rain hitting the lotus leaf.Three thousand cavalry, this figure is not big.But only when you see it with your own eyes can you feel the momentum of the army.Thousands of people, walking down the street, looking from the front and back, you can't see the tail.The cavalry started, followed closely, and the brigade infantry marched forward with one square per 1,000 people.
Zuo Wuwei belongs to the Sixth Army of the Emperor, and is the elite of the elite.If nearly 40,000 troops were lined up to walk, it would take a lot of time to go around the square and then form an array.Therefore, in order to reduce the time spent in the ceremony, only 3,000 cavalry and 5,000 infantry participated in the review.Most of them are already waiting outside the city.
The emperor's face was calm as he saw the cavalry team appearing far away.But no one would see that his fists began to clench in the cuffs.
According to the regulations, the team did not pass in front of the emperor when entering the stadium. After the team swore out of the city, they would walk on the road in front of the emperor and accept the inspection of His Majesty.So the cavalry entered from the side of the square, walked around half a circle and entered the square. They lined up on the square, as did the infantry.
When the soldiers of Zuo Wuwei showed up, the crowd of people watching suddenly burst into cheers.The people of Chang'an City want to see the army travel is not an easy task, because since the establishment of the Sui Dynasty, no country's army can threaten Chang'an.If it weren't for the enemy of Mongolian Yuan this time, I was afraid that the emperor would not call the Sixth Army of the Emperor.
The cheers of the people were deafening and they all saw the magnificent military posture of Zuo Wuwei.A sense of pride emanating from the heart immediately permeated the whole body.
A gray-haired old man shivered excitedly. He took his wife's hand and shivered and said, "Did you see it? Have you seen it! This is our big Sui soldier! I used to be a soldier in Zuowuwei." I ’ve done the brigade once! I told you that even if the brigade is passing by, it ’s killing you, but you do n’t believe it. Look, look .... Changjirulin, Hengdaoruhai! "
His wife has lost his front teeth, and his speech is a bit unfavorable: "I saw and saw ... who said I do n’t believe it, I know that you were a hero when you were young. Both legs are soft. "
The old man proudly said: "That's nature, and every soldier in Da Sui is a hero."
He pointed to the team and introduced to his wife: "Did you see the weapon in the cavalry's hand, that is the long armor. The long armor used by the cavalry is generally made of composite materials, and is made of fine workmanship and excellent toughness. The infantry is used. Most of the long bows are hard. You see the bows behind the infantry and cavalry are also different. The bow is smaller than the bow, but the rate of fire is faster. The strength of the bow is large and the range is long. ... "
When talking about this, the old man suddenly stopped.I didn't know what I thought of, and suddenly frowned.
...
...
A carriage stopped at the gate of Yanwuyuan, at this time it was just getting bright.The emperor's ceremonies have not yet left the palace, because the people have gone to the square, so the streets are more deserted.A few Taoists came down from the carriage, helped an older Taoist down, then settled the fare and walked slowly towards the gate of Yanwuyuan.
At this time, the gate of Yanwuyuan suddenly opened.
Professor Yan Qing and another professor named Min Xu walked out side by side. He looked extremely awkward when he looked at the Taoists.
In front of the library building of Yanwuyuan
Dean Zhou sat beside the stone table in front of the library building, staring at the end of the chessboard in front of him.He seemed to be very tangled in the next step, his brows were deep.
At this moment, someone suddenly said to him lightly: "Why is it boring for one person to show off, how about playing a game with you and me?"
Dean Zhou raised his head and looked at the speaker. He nodded and said flatly, "You are barely qualified, sit down."
