On the 29th, Shao Xun went north from Xinping City and rested temporarily at Mohanbi.
This city is very interesting. Shao Xun rode his horse around and found that it was four or five miles long and had three gates. It was comparable to a small county town. Moreover, the various defense facilities were very complete and the strong men were well-trained.
, and the number of young Hu people accounted for more than half.
When I thought about the environment and atmosphere here, I felt relieved again.
Tuoba Xianbei's management must have been very rough, even in areas where the New Party was dominant. If in the Central Plains, the wealthy families had many fields, but no one built the Wubao or the manor like this.
Loose supervision and poor public security have resulted in the existence of Mo Hanbi.
Mo Hanbi's "Zhuangke" ode can be found in both Hu and Han Dynasties, and is a typical motto of powerful and powerful people from the border areas.
Not only at this time, but also in later dynasties, the powerful Han armies in these border areas also contained a large number of barbarians.
Correspondingly, there are also a large number of Hu-Chinese Han people on the other side of the Hu people - the most typical ones are the Xixia people in later generations, such as the Liang Family Tribe (tribe), Bai Family Tribe, Qin Family Tribe and so on.
As a wealthy family left over from Liu Kun's era, the Mo family's living habits are very different from those in the Central Plains.
There is a word in sociology called "accultation". When you assimilate others, you will inevitably be influenced by others and absorb the cultural elements and customs of the Hu people. Scholars in the Central Plains call it "influence by the Hu style".
This is inevitable, the living environment is like this, and it is impossible not to be affected.
"Is rice noodles added to this meat?" Shao Xun asked curiously, pointing to the pot of mutton that was just brought up.
"Of course." Mo Han gently stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Maybe it's a custom passed down from the Xiongnu. When the Xianbei people stew meat, they like to add a little rice and flour, thinking it will harmonize it. I have eaten this kind of meat since I was a child, and I am already used to it.
I wonder if it suits the king’s taste?”
He sat opposite Shao Xun, each with a table and a table. He shared his meals and ate alone, instead of eating together like the Hu people without sharing their meals. This was a Han custom.
Shao Xun took a bite and said, "Not bad."
In fact, the seasoning was not very good, but out of respect for the host, he did not say anything.
However, the other plate of meat on the table made him think it was okay. After eating two pieces in a row, he asked: "This looks like venison."
"Dawangguo is good at shooting and hunting, probably because he has tasted too much venison." Mo Han smiled and said: "For this dish, select the best deer heads, put them in water, add enough seasonings, and boil them until they are cooked. Then take them out and wash them with clean water.
It’s made into two-finger-sized dumplings, which are very delicious.”
Pork refers to small pieces of meat.
When Sima Rui first went to Jiangdong, conditions were difficult. At that time, he got a pig. Someone cut off the pig's neck meat and offered it to Sima Rui to make it into gizzards. People at the time believed that this was the most delicious piece of meat on the pig, and others did not dare to do so.
After tasting it, the word "forbidden" came out.
After Shao Xun ate two pieces of deer head meat, he put down his chopsticks and said: "A few months ago, Luoyang reported that a group of deer committed violence and cannibalized young crops, which has caused great harm. The people had to set up barriers to prevent it, but it worked.
Very small. This is all caused by the war. Nine of the ten rooms are empty. There are many beasts but few. It is really sad."
There are too many wild animals, what should we do? It’s actually not easy to do.
Because there is a threshold for hunting, ordinary people have no ability at all. Shao Xun once led his army to train in Luoyang for hunting. Only they can hunt prey on a large scale.
In a year of great disaster, if you run into the mountains and the prey is right in front of you, you may not be able to catch it. In the end, it is highly likely that you will starve to death and the prey will escape.
"Your Majesty will re-establish the world, and the people of the Central Plains will be at peace, and the number of deer eating seedlings will be greatly reduced." Mo Han said.
"So it's best not to have any more wars." Shao Xun said: "You live in Yunzhong and are a prominent family. Don't you consider being named among the county surnames to honor your ancestors?"
Mo Han's hand holding the chopsticks trembled slightly.
It is the long-cherished wish of every local powerful person to have his family listed in the genealogy of a county.
Scholar, God knows how haunting this title is. Mohan even dreamed of becoming a scholar.
Seeing his expression, Shao Xun felt secretly happy but also sighed a little.
When the gentry almost became the "ideological stamp" of the whole society.
Damn it, I am really going against the will of heaven.
However, there are different versions of the nobility, so he just needs to promote the appropriate version as much as possible. When the nobility is no longer so attractive, the ideological stamp will slowly disappear.
"Your Majesty, Yunzhong is a county under the Dai Kingdom, can it also evaluate the noble clan?" Mo Han asked with suppressed excitement.
"It all depends on the people." Shao Xun said: "I implemented the surname and grade assessment in Bingzhou. The Hu people are still very accepting of the nine-grade official law. The only dispute is that your family is higher and my family is lower. I am not convinced."
Mo Han thought about it and wanted to laugh.
Don't tell me, compared to other systems in the Han Dynasty, the Nine-Rank Officials Law is still attractive to the Hu people.
They are divided into three, six or nine levels internally, and they are strict from top to bottom, with bloodline as the most important thing.
After the implementation of the Nine-Rank Officials Law, as King Liang said, the only controversy was the rank of each clan.
Yes, it's a clan, not a tribe.
One surname is a clan, and there are many clans in Pubu. It is equivalent to the Han Dynasty where families with different surnames unite and live in a Wubao, and the Wubao commander of a certain surname gives orders.
"Does Mo Jun know Zhang Tong, Tian Zhi and others?" Shao Xun asked.
"I've heard of it." Mo Han nodded and said, "Zhang Tong is from Wuhuan, and he is powerful in Mayi. Tian Zhi is from Yinguan County in the south, and is from Xianbei. However, he is not Tuoba Xianbei, but a member of the Budugen tribe in the late Han Dynasty.
The descendants have lived in Yanmen for generations."
At the end of the Han Dynasty, Bu Dugen led more than 10,000 Xianbei people to live in Taiyuan, where they grazed cattle along the Yanmen line. Therefore, there were also a lot of Xianbei people in these two places, but now they seem to have no idea what ethnic group they belong to. By the time of the Jin Dynasty,
, many people were directly classified as Xiongnu.
"This generation also wants to have the county surname." Shao Xun said.
Mo Han was a little uneasy.
Shameless people like Zhang Tong and Tian Zhi are obviously Hu people. They claim to be descendants of famous Han people. Now they want to be named as county surnames. Once they succeed, the most authentic Chinese Miao people like Mo will be regarded as
Isn't it ridiculous to not be a gentry?
Thinking of this, Mo Han stood up and left the table, prostrated himself on the ground, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, Mr. Mo has always been interested in China. He has been crowned the Hu Dynasty for a while, but he has no choice. Now that the king is here, he is overjoyed and would like to be your king.
There are hawks and dogs under the tent.”
Shao Xun also stood up, helped Mo Han up, and said: "How can I not understand the general's heart? Zhang Tong, Tian Zhi and others can be rated as nobles, but the Mo family can only be higher. Moreover, Dai Guo
They belong to the Jin vassal, Mayi, Yunzhong, and the gentry of the three counties, and they can also serve as officials in the Central Dynasty."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace." Mo Han choked with sobs.
This is really exciting.
Their family got rich by doing business, then recruited people, built cities, and farmed and herded animals. They already had many tribes and a great wealth. However, after many generations of continuous struggle, they were still rural tyrants. Even though he was appointed as a middle-aged man by Liu Kun,
Lang, it was also because he was familiar with Xianbei's internal affairs and had a good relationship with Yi Lu. Liu Kun just needed someone to pass the news in between.
Now the King of Liang helped him improve his family status with just one word. This was a gift of reinvention.
"As long as your heart is devoted to the imperial court, everything will be possible." Shao Xun said with a smile: "After a while, I will meet to appoint the Grand Central Officer of the country and the Central Government of all counties. There may be resistance to this matter. You should know what to do when you are in the court."
The Zhongzhengguan is actually a very critical position. It seems that he cannot directly appoint or remove officials, but he can comment. In an era when reputation is everything, this right to comment is so eloquent that I don't know how many benefits can be exchanged.
After the introduction of the Zhongzhengguan system in Daiguo, the leaders of the Hu clans commented one by one, so as not to disintegrate the tribe's comments in the end.
"Understood." After listening to Shao Xun's words, Mo Han nodded vigorously and expressed his position: "I will find some familiar tribal adults and tell them not to object with my righteousness."
"Mohanbi belongs to Fanju County, right?" Shao Xun asked.
"Exactly."
"That is Yunzhong County. I will send a letter to Taiwei Wang and ask him to introduce a handsome and knowledgeable scholar to serve as the commander-in-chief of the county."
"Wang Taiwei? But Wang Yifu of the Langya Wang family?" Mo Han said in surprise.
"Exactly." Shao Xun felt slightly unhappy.
When I heard Wang Yan's name, every fan felt like they had met their idol. The influence of Lao Deng cannot be underestimated.
Historically, if Shi Le was not caught and killed, but stayed with him, it would probably be more difficult to kill him later.
"The Taiwei is a man from heaven." Mo Han sighed.
Shao Xun was even more speechless.
If you see Wang Laoden's soft figure, you will be disenchanted. Only when you stay far away from him will you realize how good Wang Yan is. Only when you stay with him every day will you realize that he is nothing more than what he is.
If one day the tiger's head is exposed, if Mo Han knows that he is Wang Yan's grandson, I wonder if his idol dream will be shattered.
After talking about this, Shao Xun sat opposite Mo Han again.
The food was quickly withdrawn and replaced with tea and soup.
After some thought, Shao Xun said: "You and others who build forts and live there are different from Xianbei, so you should know it in your heart. In the past, due to the dispute between the old and the new, you know that the nomadic Suotou has never regarded you as one of his own. In the future, if
If there is a change, the only one you can rely on is the court."
"The king's words are very reasonable." Mo Han cupped his hands and said.
He has lived here all his life, so of course he knows this is true.
He was not stupid, and it was vaguely obvious that Shao Xun wanted to win over powerful locals like them.
Theoretically speaking, they are similar to the Wuhuan leaders in Daijun and Guangning. They no longer have a strict tribal organization and have developed or are developing in the direction of familialization.
They are indeed different from nomadic tribes because they have settled down and will study ways to increase farmland productivity. They also plant mulberry and hemp for textiles. They also raise a large number of livestock and drive their slaves out to graze every day, but they are no longer nomadic.
.
People like Zhang Tong, Tian Zhi, etc., who were more sinicized, had many literate people in their families, and were not from the same family as the nomadic tribes.
King Liang won over them, which actually divided the power of the Duke.
Once there is a change, the purely nomadic tribe has an idea;
An idea from a half-pastoral, half-farming tribe - these people also migrate, but they will come back during the autumn harvest;
Settling Hao Qiang is an idea.
In this way, there is no one place to unite to fight against the imperial court.
This is the breakdown of differentiation.
King Liang probably wouldn't mind others thinking about this.
Just like when he fights a war, he is upright and follows the trend of the times, giving you what you want and pulling you into his camp.
Is this the most fucking advanced art of war in the world?
That afternoon, Shao Xun left Mo Hanbi and rushed to Pingcheng.
Chapter completed!
