………………
Although Lu Yi is not the crown prince now, he is a prisoner.
What is the Prison State? Isn't it that the emperor is not in the imperial capital because of some things, and then the superintendent will supervise the country.
The reality is that any major events in various places are still reported to the emperor, and only some things that are not so important will be sent to the shore of the prison country.
The power of Lü Yi, the prison state, is very limited, and the local civil affairs matters are sent to the ruling government, and then Xiao He leads a group of central civil officials to deal with them, and after the processing is completed, they will be sent to Lü Yi, the prison state, and only to pass the eyes, Lü Yi, the prison state, actually has no decision-making power over national policies, or even no suggestion power.
In the final analysis, Lu Zhe really didn't give much power to appoint Lu Yi as the supervisor of the country, the military couldn't manage the affairs, and the local government couldn't interfere, and the appointment of the supervisor was basically so that Lu Yi could learn more experience in governing the country.
Lu Yi was also very clear about Lu Zhe's intentions, because he had repeatedly listened to the reports very carefully, observed the way the courtiers governed the government, and listened very carefully to Xiao He's lectures on some local governance.
The civil and military ministers who stayed in Nanling, they would indeed tell Lu Yi about their governance experience whenever they had the opportunity, and everyone was not Lu Yi's teacher, but once there was an opportunity to teach, they would never let go.
"My brother doesn't know, they can't wait to instill everything they can teach into my head." Lu Yi smiled wryly as he spoke, and said with some distress: "I can guess their thoughts." ”
What mind? It is nothing more than that whenever there is an opportunity, the civil and military courtiers will exert influence on Lü Yi's ideas, such as the military ministers want to import the concept of military supremacy to Lü Yi, and the civilian clique hopes that Lü Yi can pay attention to local construction, and so on.
Lu Qi laughed for a while, and when he saw that Lu Yi was still looking at him, he didn't speak, and said, "My brother has his own ideas. It's good that you won't be easily influenced. ”
Lu Yi bowed his head with a smile on his face: "What has my brother been busy with lately?" ”
"Hmm......" Lu Qi glanced at the noisy younger siblings, and said at a very slow speed: "The empire needs a tool that can be transported quickly, and I have been consulting the mountains and rivers recently, and I am also trying to improve the wheels. ”
Lu Qi and Lu Yi talked to each other, and the version he crossed was that Lu Yi became the emperor, and after Lu Yi became the emperor, he was very iron-blooded, first cleaning up a bunch of moths in the empire, and then marching to Central Asia. It's like an iron-blooded emperor.
About twenty years later, the current emperor abdicated at the age of fifty, and was succeeded by the Lü parliament.
At that time, Lu Yi was in the prime of life at the age of about thirty, and he had gone through many experiences before, such as going to the military at the age of eighteen, first serving as a small soldier in the direction of the grassland, and a year later he was promoted to the southern part of the Western Regions where the tun commander was transferred. He did a lot of sensational things in the southern part of the Western Regions, and he was most famous for leading 150 cavalry to defeat the 10,000 troops who crossed the border of Kangju Kingdom, and was promoted to military marquis because of this meritorious service.
Lu Yi, who became a military marquis, served in the Western Regions for another year. At the age of twenty, he was transferred to the South Sea Fleet, and when he arrived in the navy, he began his career as a boatswain, three months later he was promoted to first officer, and seven months later he became the captain of a reconnaissance ship.
Lu Yi, who became the captain of a reconnaissance ship, loved nothing more than to patrol the coast of the Mauryan Empire. To bully the Mauryan Empire, which had a very bad relationship with the empire at that time, attacked the fishermen of the Mauryan Empire with warships, and harassed the coastal villages of the Mauryan Empire to capture slaves.
It was almost the twelfth year of the imperial calendar, that is, in 204 BC. The situation at that time was that the empire had expelled the Xiongnu to the farther west, the Wei feudal state developed in the South Asian subcontinent, and the Qin feudal state was building on the Sakya land inhabited by the Yueshi people while fighting against the Xiongnu. In addition to still encroaching on the Western Regions, the empire was also preparing to invade the nine surnames of Zhaowu such as Kangjuguo, and was engaged in a soft-level contest with Parthia and Bactria in Central Asia, but the most important enemy was Donghu north of Liaodong.
It was precisely because Donghu became the enemy that the empire had to deal with at that time that the empire adopted a strategy of gradual encroachment on the Western Regions, and it was also because the empire did not want to border Parthia and Bactria too soon that the empire turned its energy to the conquest of Donghu.
The climate north of Liaodong is very cold, and the imperial army chooses to recruit soldiers in some places with bitter cold climate, and the scale of the war against Donghu is not too large, at most it uses three legions, and generally only uses two legions to fight with Donghu.
After more than ten years of precipitation, in addition to the local county soldiers and public security forces, in fact, cold weapons have been gradually upgraded to become firearms, and the mixed army on foot is a mixed formation of flintlock muskezeers, artillery and a small number of cavalry; The cavalry unit was mixed with artillery.
In addition to the changes in the army, the biggest change in the navy is actually the largest, many of the former capital ships have been converted into transport ships, and the navy has begun to fully use flying clippers equipped with artillery.
After 10 years of development, the navy has actually figured out the islands and land that it should have explored, not only found the strait that it had been looking for and could not find, but even found the future Australia when exploring the strait, and the development of the Nanyang Islands was at its peak.
When he found Australia in the later world, Lu Yi, who had returned to Beijing to take up his post, suggested to his father that he should develop that continent. However, at that time, because the empire was expanding too rapidly, many border counties in the country were basically vast and sparsely populated, not that there was no extra population to develop Australia, but that most of the people of the empire were content with the status quo, and the military was full of aggressiveness, but the adventurous spirit of the people was very lacking, and there were not many people in the border counties who were willing to move over, so how could distant Australia attract immigrants?
As a last resort, the proposal to exile the criminals to Australia was put forward by Lu Yi, and finally agreed to be executed, but there were many problems in the follow-up execution process, that is, the survival rate of the criminals after exile was really worrying, it seems that there is a very fierce spider on the road in Australia? Or some poisonous aquatic animal or something.
The criminals suffered heavy casualties in Australia, and some people suggested that the criminals should not be exiled, but Lu Yi, who had already had the right to speak at the time, strongly advocated not changing the exile policy, which was once considered too cruel. There was not so good reviews.
You must know that after ten years of encouraging childbearing, the total population of the empire has exceeded 100 million, that is, there are really some things in the age group, 20% under the age of 10, 30% between the ages of 10 and 20, 40% between the ages of 20 and 40, and 20% over the age of 40.
In fact, because the empire has been plundering outwards and the domestic construction has never stopped, the domestic economy has always shown a thriving trend. Because the economic level is good, people who live well will naturally live better. Ordinary civilians are practically not lacking anything.
Because of the superiority of life (compared to countries in the same time period), the crime rate within the empire is not too high, and it can even be said that it is very low. Of course, in many cases, it is not the economic situation that can reduce the crime rate, but the people who have a little courage...... Usually the bold ones are more likely to break the law, and these people are attracted to the empire to explore and explore outwards, and to ravage foreigners on another level, because the crime rate at home is so low.
Domestic criminals were collected and transported to Australia by ship, and a group of them died in the past. It took almost 1,000 casualties to establish a decent settlement along the coast. After the settlement was built, it was Lu Yi who suggested that troops be sent to Australia. Because of Lu Yi's strong request, Lu Zhe, who had already gradually delegated power, naturally would not object, and transferred 1,000 garrisons from some counties and counties. But what was more unfortunate was that the 1,000 garrison suffered nearly 200 casualties in a year. Their casualties were not attacked, but actually because of the natural environment, and as a result, they became one of Lu Yi's black spots.
Except for some places that are considered black spots in decision-making, Lu Qi recalled the record of Lu Yi in the history books. It seems that Lu Yi did not kill people at all when he served in the military, and even did the matter of killing prisoners in pits when he was serving in the Western Regions, and commanded the troops of the 3,000 Qin feudal kingdoms to bury nearly 10,000 people surnamed Zhaowu Jiu alive.
“…… Isn't it? Lu Yi couldn't see the murder on his tender face now. It's a grinning face.
"Huh?" Lu Qi was thinking about things just now, and he didn't listen to what Lu Yi was saying at all.
"Alas, brother." Lu Yi probably saw it, and he said: "You are a little bad, you are too distracted." ”
"Heh, hehe......" Lu Qi laughed awkwardly, he couldn't say that he was recalling history, right? He asked again, waiting for Lu Yi to repeat what he had just said, and he bowed his head and said, "It is necessary to strengthen education, especially to cultivate the adventurous spirit of pioneering outward since childhood. ”
"Most of the teachers in various schools are Confucian students, and they are very good at moral education, but I always feel a little strange." Lu Yi touched his chin, and slapped Lu Ying's small hand that reached on his desk and wanted to get juice, and first said to Lu Ying, "I have it on my desk, why are you here to get me?" Then he said to Lu Qi: "It seems to be ...... It seems to be ...... What big trouble will it cause in the future? ”
Lu Qimeng nodded and agreed: "Lacking a pioneering spirit and adventurous spirit, this is what I said." He remembered very clearly, because he did not cultivate the above two spirits in the early stage, and when that generation grew up, the current situation of the vast and sparsely populated frontier of the empire still did not change much.
"In fact, a group of people from the military should be transferred to teach in various schools." Lu Yi slapped Lu Ying's outstretched hand away again, looked at Lu Qi and said, "It's best to have soldiers who have experience in killing the enemy in battle, not county soldiers from various counties." ”
Lu Qi suddenly felt as if something was wrong, wasn't it that Lu Ying turned to reach out to his desk to get something, but that he noticed that his younger brother seemed to be digging some kind of pit?
"Surely you think that's a very good suggestion, right?" Lu Yi looked at Lu Qi, whose expression was gradually stiffening, and the smile on his face was even more a little more, and said: "I even agreed to jointly write to my father and the emperor, and suggested that there should not be so many Confucian students in various schools, right?" ”
Lu Qi had the urge to vomit blood, he was not only dragged by Lu Yi to do the so-called joint letter, it didn't matter when he was young before, and it didn't matter even before Lu Yi didn't become a prisoner, but now that Lu Yi has the identity of a prisoner, it's a bit inappropriate to pull him up.
Lu Yi saw his brother's appearance and knew what he was worried about, so he said with a bitter face: "I have already gone to school, and I was scolded by the old man." My idea is that if we don't change the current situation of the flood of Confucian students in various schools, it doesn't matter much if we teach some nerds, I'm afraid that we will teach a bunch of dead and alive to be officials, and then one by one without the pioneering spirit and adventurous spirit you said, then this generation will be miserable when they become adults. ”
"It's you who are miserable, you will be the emperor in the future, and we don't necessarily have a fief, even if we have a fief, we don't have the right to open up and send troops." Lu Qi criticized in his heart, but he said, "You were all scolded, and you still pulled me?" ”
"It's not just you!" Lu Yi smiled evilly, raised his hand and pointed around all the people present, and said, "One counts as one, as long as it is the old man's children, I will pull them all." ”
"Yes, yes." Lu Yang came over, he didn't know how he was bullied by Lu Ying, he actually had a dark circle under his eyes, but he smiled happily on his face, and said: "All, everyone, one is counted as one, and the second brother is all pulled." It's the eldest brother who has been bored at home and hasn't attended several parties, so you're the only one left. ”
Several other brothers and sisters also spoke, I don't know what the situation is, anyway, when everyone talked about being pulled by Lu Yi to write a joint book, everyone's faces were very excited and proud.
Lu Qi knows why his brothers and sisters are like this, in the past, Lu Yi usually only brought him along, and it was the first time for the younger brothers and sisters, probably because those brothers and sisters had a sense of satisfaction of "I am valued" or "I seem to have grown up".
"Okay." Lu Qi smiled bitterly, and after agreeing, he asked Lu Yi a little confused: "So my father will agree?" ”
Lu Yi didn't pat his chest to promise, he also knew that education was a decision made by the central government, and so many Confucian students would be arranged, on the one hand, Confucian students did have a set of education, and on the other hand, because they didn't find something to do for Confucian students, Confucian students were very good at making trouble.
"I will pull all the sons and daughters of the nobles, and one will be counted as one." The smile on Lu Yi's face turned serious, sighed, and said: "There is really a problem with education, if you don't reform, you can't see it now, and there will really be a lot of trouble in the future."
