The night is charming, the lights are as bright as day, and the people are buzzing. In the eyes of the superiors, these ordinary people are actually as humble as ants, but they still live tenaciously on this land and never thought of giving up.
Duan Ye and others knew the secrets inside when they first set out.
No martial law!
Originally, there was no reason for you to come to the night banquet at night, but the intention was to let you enter the palace after the sun sets. How could you disrespect?
Moreover, the return of Julu King to Beijing and the title of the governor of Liangzhou is a major event. It is not martial law and the streets are not clear, which means that this is completely unnecessary in Fu Hong's opinion.
There should be no things, it means there is a ghost
Even so, Duan Ye was not worried at all. Tonight, he was just catching ghosts! There is an old song that sang well, "You can bend your heart straight! You can catch ghosts while the night is midnight!"
"Get out of the way, let go!" Suddenly, a sound of horse hooves came over at the same time with the opening sound, and the pedestrians naturally dodged one after another. People who were seeking life in Chang'an had basic vision, but they actually had some
But they couldn't help but curse. After all, you didn't clear the way in advance, but now there are horses in the downtown area. Everyone must be feeling uncomfortable.
But then again, ordinary small officials dared to gallop in the downtown city and were already taken down by the Yulin Army, who were patrolling the city! However, the Yulin Army, the imperial guard who had a more sarcastic nose than a dog, now sees the shadows.
No see
It's obvious that this time, it's a big shot
Duan Ye and others entered the palace to see you, of course they had to take a car, but it was not a carriage, but a ox carriage.
The Qin Empire has a very strange rule that only royal families can use carriages. Among them, the king can use white horses, the prince can use half of the white horses, and other royal members cannot use white horses!
However, the princes and ministers are simply forbidden to use carriages, and those who violate the order will be killed without mercy!
Although the Di people are Hu people, although they care about etiquette, most of the others are just passing by. But they implemented this line very strictly. Five years ago, a general who made outstanding contributions used a carriage over the system. Fu Jian
He first granted the title, rewarded the fief, and then killed him!
Fu Jian’s statement is very clear, he should be rewarded for his contributions. He made such a great contribution and did not reward him, which made the soldiers feel disappointed.
However, it is necessary to investigate the system beyond the system, otherwise the system will be destroyed if it goes upward and the result is lower.
So it is time to kill! The reward part before can be regarded as giving his son a way out!
After this incident, no one dared to violate this system. But the strange thing is that you are not allowed to ride a carriage, but you officials are not a problem. I think it may be that they are Hu people. No matter how good the Han culture is, there are some details.
There may be deviations in understanding the place, and mechanically applying ancient classics to make such a decision.
Of course, this is just an official. If the common people want to try it, the result will be death.
Of course Duan Ye didn't dare, at least it was not necessary for the time being, and there was no need for this ox cart in Chang'an City. In fact, the history of ox carts is very long. During the Shang Dynasty, ox carts began to be used on a large scale, and at that time
The ox cart is actually very advanced. The car has a single shaft and double wheels. The carriage is square or rectangular. There is a horizontal wood called "Heng" tied to the front end of the shaft. The two sides of the ox are tied to a zigzag yoke. It is used to tie the ox because it is a single
The shaft must be driven by an even number of ox
Moreover, the appearance, specifications, etc. of this ox cart are actually very knowledgeable. Just say that this ordinary ox cart can be roughly divided into two categories: large carts and small carts. Large carts refer to cars driven by oxes, with large carts.
It is mainly used to pull items. Later, it was used for transportation by the government. The small car was not really small, but refers to a car that could only be seated in people. At best, it could hold some small things that big people could carry at any time, such as swords and fans.
Generally speaking, this kind of car requires two or four cows to move quickly while pulling the bell on the cow's neck keeps making rhythmic sounds, and sometimes there are cows' calls, and cows walk on their way.
Come on, it looks slow, but it is not slow at all. Outsiders look really arrogant
Of course, in addition to riding by nobles, this kind of car is also used in war, so it is also called military carriages. In fact, during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the number of chariots became a sign of the strength of a country. However, a very realistic problem in that era was the road conditions.
Not to mention the smooth roads in later generations, it is not easy to find a dirt road that is not easy to overturn. Who would use valuable manpower and material resources to build roads? Moreover, the materials and crafts of the car are average,
The safety and reliability of the car is not very good
Even in the Mingcheng Dayi, the best road at that time was just a flatter dirt road. More roads were inevitably bumpy, and the wheels were all wood, and the wheels and the ground were just head-on. So, the faster the car ran, the bumpy it was.
The more powerful it is, and the more dust it is flying, so the people riding the bus are not very comfortable. There is also a problem that makes people vomit blood. According to etiquette, the rider is a gentleman and cannot hide his whereabouts, so most of the car body is broken.
It's revealed, because people outside can see you, there are strict requirements for the passenger's appearance. You must maintain a correct posture in the car, and you cannot be tilted or erratic. You must also be in the bumps.
Maintaining a ride posture is also a kind of exercise for passengers
But in this way, a big risk is to assassinate! Those who can ride in the ox cart must be noble and bureaucrats. If such people have a few enemies, it is actually normal. Even Qin Shihuang faces Bobo
There is a blow!
But if you have a car open, isn’t that equivalent to telling your enemy and greeting me? So later, I was forced to take power and gradually added a tent to the ox cart.
Overall, the ox cart travels smoothly, the bumps are not serious, and the dust is raised is also less. Moreover, even if the ox cart is a small cart, relatively speaking, the carriage has some space, and with the so-called
The ceremony collapsed and the music was broken, and the space in the ox cart became larger and larger. Gradually, some people brought food and other daily necessities. As soon as they opened, there were everything on the ox cart. Some dignitaries even came out.
When you are far away, you won’t get off the car, and you will eat, drink, defecate and sensation are all inside. In short, you can not get rid of the carriage when you sit inside, and you can sit and lie down freely. Therefore, the ox carriage gradually becomes
Officials, nobles' transportation tools
But all the time, the royal family firmly supported the carriage, not for anything else, because they wanted to distinguish themselves from ordinary nobles!
Although Duan Ye is always arrogant, he doesn't want to cause trouble at this time. Therefore, when he heard someone shouting to give in, he also ordered Liu Liu, the personal guard who drove the car, to move the car.
The place where Chang'an is different from other places is that the road to Chang'an is good! Chang'an has many ancient capitals, and all the dynasties have established their capitals here, but their lifespan is still relatively long. In that case, of course, it is necessary.
Give some capital!
Building roads is a good thing! If you want to be rich, in this era, you will have more children and build more roads! With children, you will have population, you will have labor, corvee, military service, and taxes, and you will have a destiny.
With corvee, cities can be built and water conservancy can be built. With cities can be formed a ruling center. With water conservancy projects, farmland can be irrigated, food can be increased, and soldiers can naturally have the capital to conquer the world!
With taxes, there will be everything that should be
As for road construction, let alone it be. In this era, the biggest problem is that the transportation is inconvenient. When the news of your pregnancy comes, the children will be soaked.
It’s not that there are no wise emperors, but that many smart people have seen the benefits of building roads. If you don’t build roads, there are only two reasons: either you have been in power for too short and you don’t have time to build roads, or you have no money
Building roads requires mobilizing a lot of manpower and material resources. Ordinary dynasties cannot afford it, but it happens that Chang'an is the capital, the Han Dynasty! The Han Dynasty can afford it!
In Chang'an, there is a bluestone road that is not available elsewhere, and people clean it all day long, and ox, chariot, horse, pedestrians walk on the road, and they all have their own place!
But the carriage was approaching soon. Duan Ye poked his head out of the window and saw that the car happened to be pulled by four horses, two white horses and two yellow horses!
Duan Ye was shocked at that time!
There is a problem here! According to regulations, only the prince's carriage can use two white horses! But when Wang Fuhong is young today, he did not establish a prince at all! Which one did he sing?
But soon, Duan Ye curled his lips and smiled, because he knew who was sitting in the carriage
There is no doubt that there is only Fu Rui inside!
So Duan Ye changed his mind and said softly: "Stop!"
Liu Liu was quite shocked because he was not far from the palace gate, but he knew that as a subordinate of Duan Ye, there was no need to ask why and why. If you need to know why, then please rest assured, Lord Duan must be.
Will tell you on your own initiative
The habitual obedience made Liu Liu take out his whistle and blew it, and the cow stopped.
Overall, cattle are much more docile than horses, and they are more controllable overall. At least for driving a ox cart.
The Incarnate in the car had just been sitting there, and Duan Ye didn't talk to him along the way because he knew that at this critical moment, the Incarnate needed to maintain enough energy and sober, a Incarnate who could exert all his strength.
, it's terrible!
But when the car heard this, the eyes of the derivation opened and it seemed murderous!
"Derivative!" Duan Ye said softly, "Don't be impulsive. There are two masters, and I feel it too!"
It turned out that Yansheng actually felt the aura of the master beside Fu Rui, which was so intense!
