One thousand two hundred and eighty-six fire-fighting pavilion old Li Tingji
Regarding the entire western region, Xiao Ruxun’s strategy is to pretend to be indifferent and pretend not to care, but in fact he cares about these things very much and secretly arranges them.
Although the commander of Uszangdu was useless, he had at least a name. They ignored the Qin Empire that replaced the Ming Dynasty to rule the Central Plains and regarded the Qin as air. This was a serious provocation to the Qin Empire and the emperor's prestige.
Xiao Ruxun had already arranged them, and he decided to establish a formal rule in Uszang and literally rule these guys on the plateau.
All dynasties have given up actual rule because the plateau is bitter and cold, has no interests and is difficult to develop, and only nominal rule is needed or even no one. Xiao Ruxun is different from them. The seemingly worthless land has very special significance.
Uszang will definitely be taken down, Xiao Ruxun is so sure.
The Yarkand Khanate was actually arranged, but because its relationship with the Ming Dynasty in history was quite good, Xiao Ruxun did not intend to turn against them first.
There is no way, who allowed them to occupy an important gateway to the western front of the Great Qin Dynasty. If they are not mastered here, the western front of the Great Qin Dynasty will be unstable and the Han area will be threatened. These places must be firmly grasped.
The Yarkand Khanate has always attached great importance to trade and trade with the Ming Dynasty. Although there are many conflicts between the Montenegro faction and the Baishan faction, whoever dares to block the trade route will be opposed by everyone.
With this traditional relationship, they had no idea of invasion of the Ming Dynasty and just wanted to do business. However, now is not the era of the Ming Dynasty, and the one who ruled the Central Plains was replaced by the Qin Dynasty, which had a strong invasion.
After the founding of the Great Qin Kingdom, in early February of the first year of Longwu, Xiao Ruxun ordered the blockade of Jiayuguan and temporarily cut off contacts with the Yarkand Khanate.
Yarkand Khan was extremely uneasy about this. Dahanma sent many letters to ask about the inside story, but none of them received a reply from Xiao Ruxun. They were anxious.
This time, when he received news that Xiao Ruxun asked to attend the birthday party, Ma Heimahan was very surprised and immediately sent an envoy to report to Daqin and actively prepared within the country.
This time Xiao Ruxun plans to start a trade with them. Don’t think about the Silk Road on the Land, but this road still needs to be opened.
The Western Regions, which were not directly and indirectly ruled by the Central Plains dynasty since the Tang Dynasty, are different from the past. The lush oasis that was once upon a time, the changes in climate and the uncontrollable development of the locals have gradually become what they are today.
Although the economic value has declined greatly, in the traditional sense, this is the wealth left by the Han Dynasty to later dynasties and must be inherited.
The dozens of vassal states in the south and the three major forces in the north, this time the country that congratulated Emperor Xiao Ruxun on his birthday can basically be called the historian as the nations coming to pay tribute.
This is a very face-saving thing and one of the important actions of Chinese emperors in the past. However, if it is placed on Xiao Ruxun, it will be retreated behind the scenes.
The vassal states in the south came to sell arms and strengthen control.
The vassal states in the north came to promote their prestige, inquire about the news, and then planted a secret spy from Hei Shui.
Xiao Ruxun has a very clear purpose, otherwise he would not have spent much effort to hold such a grand event.
This would cost hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, not a small amount.
In order to meet the large number of foreign envoys that will come to the forthcoming, Xiao Ruxun also ordered the construction of some new houses in the embassy areas of various countries for these people to live in.
These houses need to be isolated separately and connected to the embassy area, but they do not have contact with the people's residential areas. The surrounding area should be sent to strictly guard them, so that they will not enter the residential areas at will, and residents will not be allowed to contact these people in private.
Hei Shui's spies began to move everywhere, strictly preventing people from some vassal states from being bad-minded and attacking their thoughts on important technologies mastered by the Qin Dynasty.
Envoys from various countries also actively communicated with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Qin Dynasty and demarcated the route to Beijing, whether to land directly at Tianjin Wei by sea, or enter from the estuary of the Yangtze River, and go directly to Beijing by the Grand Canal. These have standard routes and are not allowed to go randomly. Governments along the way must move to ensure the safety of these envoys.
North Korea still follows the old path, and Li Jian plans to come in person, but it is said that he doesn't like taking a boat, so he decided to come to the capital by land from Liaodong to see Xiao Ruxun. It is said that he is already on the way.
Xiao Ruxun ordered Liao Zhong to arrange reliable elite troops to protect Li Bing's safety without any loss.
The King of Ryukyu Shang Ning also decided to come in person to congratulate the Emperor of the Qin Empire on his birthday, and took the sea route, and took a boat from Ryukyu to land at Tianjin Wei Port and arrived directly at the capital.
Xiao Ruxun ordered the navy of Jiang Dahai to send five warships to escort Shangning to arrive and return without any mistakes.
There are countless such things. In order to reflect the majesty of the Great Qin Empire, its control over the surrounding vassal states, and its own credibility, Xiao Ruxun wanted to ensure that these people could come, go back, and have stable domestically without any changes.
The powerful force of the Qin Dynasty is the basis for everything.
In fact, there is no need to make a common language in the world, because fists are the language of the common world. Whoever has a strong fists will listen to anyone's words.
This unprecedented large-scale event also made the central government busy. It was already very tired to handle government affairs, but now a large number of people have to be assigned to deal with the accommodation and safety issues of the kings and envoys, and even translation issues.
Officials of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs each assumed full responsibility for a country and sent people to contact them.
Ask them if there are any escorts who understand Chinese, and if not, how should they communicate, etc. Anyway, they are to make sure that these guys can not make jokes when they meet and bow down on Xiao Ruxun’s birthday.
Otherwise, I would be really embarrassed and left outside the country. I don’t know how annoyed Xiao Ruxun would be.
Li Tingji has not been home for a month, and Ye Xianggao has not been home for a month. In order to help Wang Xijue, who was incompetent, Ye Xianggao entered the Qianqing Palace instead of Li Tingji to handle daily government affairs, allowing Li Tingji to liberate his hands and feet and be fully responsible for the emperor's birthday.
Of course, it is not just them who are busy. People from all departments have to get busy. No one is easy. Those who are in charge of money, materials, approvals, and safety all hold meetings overnight to arrange division of responsibilities and exercises.
Each department is busy with the sky, the earth, the earth, the sun, the moon, and the light are gone, and there are a lot of intersections and conflicts between them.
Whenever conflicts occur, the most painful thing is Li Tingji, the fire-fighting master.
Yes, because of the important role Li Tingji played, officials from various departments in the palace gave Li Tingji the honorific title of "Fire-fighting Pavilion Master".
