The night is charming, the lights are like day, and the voices of the people are boiling, these ordinary people, in the eyes of the superiors, are actually as humble as ants, but they are still living tenaciously in this land, and they have never thought of giving up.
Duan Ye and the others, when they first hit the road, knew the mystery inside. [n look——]
There is no martial law!
Originally, there was no reason for the night banquet to let you come at night, but on the contrary, the will is to let you enter the palace after the sun sets, can you not respect it?
Moreover, the return of the Julu King to Beijing and the assassination of Liangzhou are also considered major events, but they are not martial law and do not clear the streets, which can only show that this is completely unnecessary in Fu Hong's opinion.
If there is no thing that should be, it means that there is a ghost.
Despite this, Duan Ye was not worried at all, tonight, he was originally going to catch ghosts! There is an old saying that sings well, "The heart is straight and the waist can be bent!" Catch ghosts in the middle of the night! ”
"Get out of the way, get out of the way!" Suddenly, a sound of horses' hooves came at the same time as the sound of the road, and the pedestrians naturally flashed away.
It's just that they can't help but scold a few words, after all, you didn't clear the road in advance, but now there is a busy galloping horse, everyone must be uncomfortable.
But then again, ordinary petty officials who dare to gallop in the downtown area have long been taken down by the Yulin Army patrolling the city! But the Janissary Yulin Army, whose nose is smarter than a dog, can't see the shadow now.
That's obvious, this time, it's a big shot.
Duan Ye and the others entered the palace to see the king, of course, they had to take a car, but it was not a carriage, but an ox cart.
The Great Qin Empire has a very strange rule, only the royal family can use the carriage, it, the king of heaven can use a white horse, the prince can use half of the white horse, and other royal family members cannot use a white horse!
However, the princes and ministers forbade the use of carriages at all, and those who violated the order were killed!
Don't look at the Di people as Hu people, although they care about etiquette, but most of the others are also passable, but this one, they are very strict, five years ago there was a meritorious general who overtook the system and used a carriage, Fu Jian first sealed the title, rewarded the caiyi, and then killed him!
Fu Jian's statement is very clear, there is merit to be rewarded, and he has made such a great contribution not to reward the soldiers to chill the soldiers.
However, it is impossible not to check the overreach, otherwise the system will be ruined.
So it's time to kill, it's time to kill! The part of the previous reward can be regarded as a way out for his son.
After this incident, no one dared to violate the system. But the strange thing is that you are not allowed to ride in a carriage, but you officials are not allowed to ride horses, but there is no problem. I think it may be that they are Hu people.,No matter how good the sinicization is.,Some of the details.,There may be deviations in understanding.,Mechanically applying ancient classics.,Only then did I come up with such a decision.。
Of course, this is only for officials, and if ordinary people want to try it, the result will of course be death.
Of course, Duan Ye didn't dare, at least not for the time being, and there was no need. This Chang'an City ox cart is still easy to find. In fact, the history of the ox cart is also very long, the Shang Dynasty, the ox cart began to be used on a large scale, and the ox cart at that time was actually very advanced, the car is a single wheel, two wheels, the carriage is square or rectangular, the front end of the wheel is tied with a horizontal wood called "Heng", and someone is yoked on both sides of the balance, which is used to tie the ox. Since it is a solitary wheel, it must be driven by an even number of oxen.
And the shape of the ox cart, specifications, etc., in fact, there are university questions, it is said that this ordinary ox cart, can be roughly divided into two categories: big cart and small car, big cart refers to the car driven by oxen, the carriage is large, mainly for pulling goods, and later, it is used by the government for transportation, and the small cart is not really small, but refers to the car that can only sit on people, at best, it can put some small gadgets carried by big people at any time, such as swords, fans and other things. Generally speaking, this frame car needs two or four oxen to pull and move quickly. At the same time, the bell on the cow's neck still makes a rhythmic sound, and sometimes there is the sound of the cow, and the cow walks slowly, but in fact it is not slow at all, and outsiders look really magnificent.
Of course, in addition to the nobles, this kind of car was also used for war, so it was also called a chariot. In fact, during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the number of chariots became a sign of a country's strength or weakness. However, a very real problem in that era was the road condition, not to mention the kind of road in later generations, it was not easy to find a dirt road that was not easy to overturn, who would use precious manpower and material resources to repair the road? Moreover, the materials and craftsmanship of the car are also average, and the safety and reliability of the car are not very good.
Even in the famous city of Dayi, the best roads at that time were only smoother dirt roads, and more roads were inevitably potholes, and the wheels were all wood, and the wheels and the ground were hard to touch. As a result, the faster the car goes, the more bumpy it gets, and the more dust it kicks up, making it less pleasant for the riders. There is also a problem that makes people vomit blood, that is, according to the etiquette law, the passengers are all gentlemen and cannot hide their whereabouts, so most of the body is exposed, because you have to let people outside see you. In this way, there are very strict requirements for the appearance of the passengers, you must maintain a correct posture in the car, not staggering, and maintain the posture of riding in bumps, which is also a kind of exercise for the passengers.
But in this way, there is a big risk, which is to assassinate! The people who can ride the ox cart must be aristocratic bureaucrats, and this kind of person, if there are a few enemies, is actually a normal thing. Even Qin Shi Huang faced a blow from Bo Lng!
But if you leave the car open, isn't that the same as telling the enemy to greet me? Therefore, in a hurry, the ox cart was gradually added with a canopy.
On the whole, the bullock cart walked relatively smoothly, the bumps were not serious, and the dust raised was much less. Moreover, even if the ox cart is a small car, relatively speaking, the carriage also has a bit of space, and with the so-called etiquette collapse, the space in the ox cart is getting larger and larger, and gradually some people bring food and other daily necessities up, and as soon as the head is opened, there is everything on the ox cart in the end, and some dignitaries and nobles do not get off the car when they even simply go out of the door, eating, drinking and Lazar are in it. In short, the ox cart has both a canopy and a fence for the carriage, so that people can sit in it, others cannot see it, and they can sit and lie freely. As a result, the ox cart gradually became a means of transportation for officials and nobles.
But all the time, the royal family, still firmly supported the carriage, not for anything else, just because, they want to distinguish themselves from ordinary nobles!
Although Duan Ye has always been arrogant, at this time, he didn't want to make trouble, so when he heard someone shouting for help, he also instructed Liu Liu, the guard who was driving the car, to move the car.
The difference between Chang'an and other places lies in the good road of Chang'an! Chang'an, how to say that it is also the ancient capital of many dynasties, all dynasties and dynasties are here, in fact, the life span is still quite long, in that case, of course, it will also need some capital!
Building roads is a good thing! If you want to be rich, in this era, it is to have more children and build more roads! With children, there is a population, there is labor, conscription and military service, and taxes, there is a settlement.
With conscription, we can build cities, build water conservancy, form a sense of domination with cities, and irrigate farmland and increase grain with water conservancy projects. With soldiers, it goes without saying that they have the capital to conquer the world! With taxes, there is everything that should be there.
As for road construction, it is not to mention that it is really a real skill. In this era, the biggest problem is the inconvenience of transportation, and when the news of your pregnancy arrives, other people's children will play soy sauce.
It's not that there are no wise emperors, but there are also many smart people who see the benefits of building roads, and if you don't build roads, there are only two reasons, either your reign is too short and you don't have time to build roads, or you don't have money.
Building roads requires the mobilization of a lot of manpower and material resources, and ordinary dynasties cannot afford it. But it just so happens that Chang'an is the capital of the Han Dynasty! The Han Dynasty can afford it!
In Chang'an, there is a bluestone road that is not found in other places, and there are people cleaning it all day long, ox carts, war horses, and pedestrians walking on the road, all have their own place!
It's just that the carriage approached quickly, and Duan Ye poked his head out of the window, but saw that the carriage happened to be drawn by four horses, with two white horses and two yellow horses!
Duan Ye was shocked at that time!
Here's the problem! According to the rules, only the prince's carriage could use two white horses! But when Wang Fuhong is young today, he has not set up a prince at all! Which one is this singing?
But soon, the corners of Duan Ye's mouth curled and he smiled, because, he knew who was sitting in this carriage.
The contempt for ox carts mentioned here refers to the fact that before the Eastern Han Dynasty, ox carts were regarded as low-level vehicles. According to the "Historical Records", when the Western Han Dynasty was first established, because of many years of war, there was a shortage of horses, and the emperor could not find four horse-drawn carriages with the same coat color when he traveled, and some officials were forced to take ox carts aggrieved. In the early years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the situation that the ox cart was not valued remained unchanged, and when Emperor Zhang of the Han Dynasty, there was a Taishou who was regarded as "detrimental to the national code" because of the ox cart travel, and was actually demoted. Since the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, with the increase of the "value" of the ox cart, its device has also changed, and the manufacturing is more exquisite. Through this pottery ox cart from the Northern Qi Dynasty, we can appreciate the "appearance" of the restructured ox cart.
According to records, some officials not only rode in ox carts, but also drove them with whips, just like some people drive private cars today. For the car we see now, we feel more about the precipitation and the long history.
