On February 21, 2016, the third year of Daguan in the Song Dynasty, outside the Nanxun Gate in the south of Bianliang City, there were crowds of people watching the fun.

At this moment, it was probably the most glorious moment since the founding of the Song Dynasty. The territory was vast, at least it looked very vast! It started from the sea in the east, the Tianshan Mountains in the west, the Khitan in the north, and the south... Well, I don’t know that it goes south, and they all have all the seas, and the small islands in the south are not occupied casually!

Just last winter, Wu Haogu had already issued an order to invade Java Island through the General Military Computer Room of the General Military Control Office of the Sea Road System to the Sanfo Qi Army. I don’t know how many territory of Java Island has been occupied now? If there have been a result of the battle, then the extreme of the southern border of the Song Dynasty should be Java Island.

As the foremost city of this great empire that was "far from the Han and Tang Dynasties", Kaifeng Prefecture has become more and more prosperous and more crowded in recent years.

When Yizu founded the founding of Kaifeng Prefecture, there were hundreds of thousands of residents in the city, which was already a huge scale. After more than a hundred decades of birth and reproduction, the city's residents had already exceeded one million. When Zi Zhao Ji was in the world today, due to the transportation of grain and grain in the north and south brought by Jiehe Market and the great victory of the Pingxia War, Kaifeng Prefecture, which was already crowded, ushered in a peak of large population gatherings.

The transportation of grain in the north and south can bring an additional supply of one or two million stones of flour to Kaifeng Prefecture City every year (at the beginning, wheat was transported in the south, but now it has become processed flour). The victory of the Hehuang War in the Peaceful Xia War brought a large number of "New Kaifeng people". A large number of Hehuang who surrendered to the Song Dynasty, the families who surrendered to the people of Xixia and the servants who served those families arrived in Kaifeng Prefecture one after another. Tong Guan and Gao Qiu also detained many craftsmen from the Xixia and Qingtang, and a considerable number of them were sent to Kaifeng Prefecture for resettlement.

In addition, many Western Army generals moved half of their family from Shaanxi to Kaifeng Prefecture. This is a matter of attitude! Now that the Western thieves have been pacified, the Western Army group has naturally reached the point where they can kill donkeys. Fortunately, the Song Dynasty officials are still following the rules at present, so they can release military power with a cup of wine! Because the Khitan has not yet been defeated, they will release half of them first.

However, in this half, there are also a large number of people. The Western Army generals are all veterans for a hundred years. Who is not a big family? Moreover, the masters of the generals are all riding on the heads of the working people and performing their fortunes. Everyone has to bring a large number of serving people to Beijing!

Another group that moved to Kaifeng Prefecture is the Biyong Academy, Qingcheng Academy and Infantry School related scholars, students and families.

Because the military expenditure of the imperial court dropped sharply after Da'an, and the struggle of the Confucian school began to gradually intensify. Therefore, Su Che, Zhang Shangying and others spent a lot of public funds in the three schools and primary schools that matched the three schools in the past two or three years. Many masters of the Guanluo school were invited from the foreign government and tried to restore the school upgrade roadmap of "local government schools were awarded the imperial examination and then enrolled in Biyong to further study and study in Piyong."

Of course, if you don’t go to the Biyong Academy to study “New Confucianism” (Neo-Confucianism), you can also take the imperial examination, but the “winning rate” is even lower.

So in recent years, the number of people in "New Kaifeng" has increased a lot! There are a lot of people, and there are always more than 100,000 people.

Therefore, the newly expanded Kaifeng Prefecture New Xicheng was quickly filled with it! The housing prices in Kaifeng Prefecture did not decline due to the expansion of urban area, but instead rose a lot because of a group of "high-income" people.

At this moment, the places where the houses gather in the south of Kaifeng Prefecture City are now crowded, which is enough to make all visitors from afar dumbfounded!

...

The missions from various states outside the region have stood quietly outside Nanxun Gate under the escort of thousands of model new soldiers wearing sharp-wielding sharps.

Because most of the missions this time were from the south, they did not go to Wansheng Gate, but entered at Nanxun Gate, then passed through the old Zhuque Gate, crossed Longjin Bridge, walked on the old Yu Street, and went from south to north to the former residence of the official family, outside the Xuande Gate of Kaifeng Imperial City.

Zhao Ji, an official from the Song Dynasty, was now bringing all civil and military officials and noble royal families on Xuande Tower, and he shot out all the imperial guards in front of the imperial palace, waiting for these "envoys of all countries" to come forward to offer gifts and give honorary titles.

Such a grand event can only be compared with it when Li Shimin called Dingli (Tengri) Khan since the founding of the Song Dynasty.

In the past, Emperor Taizong of Tang Li Shimin was the overlord of the mainland, and today, Zhao Ji was the king who commanded the world!

It seems that Emperor Taizong of Tang will be called the two heroes together with Emperor Haihuang of Song in the future.

All the Bianliang City were disturbed by this grand event. Only people with a little face, even if they couldn't go to Xuande Tower, were not qualified to watch the excitement outside Xuande Gate. They also called their friends and took their servants to occupy the high ground along the Yu Street from Nanxun Tower to Xuande Gate. Especially those restaurants and tea shops next to Yu Street, today they were full of customers.

A seat with a better vision can sell for more than a dozen yuan!

As for those ordinary people, they naturally couldn't afford to spend money, so they just crowded together on the street and formed a group. Everyone looked up and wanted to see what the envoys from thousands of miles away looked like?

Ji Yi and Li Gang (he arrived in Haizhou by boat before the New Year and then entered Beijing with the delegation) were also extremely proud today. Both of them were promoted, and they were both promoted more and more. Ji Yi was promoted to the fifth-rank Zhongsan Doctor and was also appointed as the direct scholar of the Longtu Pavilion. From now on, it will be Ji Longtu!

Li Gang was awarded the title of Jinshi, and his official rank was directly mentioned as the seventh-rank Xuan Delang, who was ranked among the court officials, and he also gave him a post in Zhimi Pavilion. It can be regarded as a step to reaching the peak of his life!

However, what made them most proud was not the promotion, but the essence of Greek philosophy. Ji Yi and Li Gang were originally Confucian Confucians, who were able to become Jinshi in the Song Dynasty, and their attainments in Confucianism would not be bad.

Moreover, the Confucian Confucians of Song were looking for the truth. Before Wu Haogu raised the banner of "positivism" and "rationalism", the so-called "unification of the three religions" was to learn from Buddhism and Taoism, and to improve Confucianism was the mainstream right way.

Now, Ji Yi and Li Gang, who have obtained Greek philosophical thoughts, seem to see a door leading to the academic peak open to them.

This is an opportunity to start a sect and become a sage!

...

On the Xuande Tower, the sound of drums and music from Junrong was heard. Rows of the imperial front squads first went to Xuande Tower, spread left and right, and stood at their respective positions. Then there were the imperial commanders with imperial equipment. They were all nobles, and there were newly-established Western Army generals, all with helmets and armor, looking quite strong. Behind them was an apricot yellow squad, and under the squad was a chariot carried by eight outer halls. The Song Dynasty official family, Zhao Ji, was wearing a dragon robe, wearing a long-winged gauze hat, and sat upright on the chariot, and walked to the peak of his life.

This emperor, who could never escape the name of a foolish monarch in history, has finally completed his historical mission. In the middle and late Northern Song Dynasty, China's economy has reached the stage of the introductory stage of capitalism. At least in Xuzhou (Xuzhou Liguojian), Haizhou, Mingzhou, Quanzhou and Kaifeng Prefecture, which has developed financial industry, the seedlings of capitalism have appeared.

The reason why it has not been able to thrive is that traditional Chinese philosophy is stuck in "tools" and "methods" and cannot support large-scale technological innovation. Without the progress of science and technology, the seedlings of capitalism will not be able to grow.

Zhao Ji's strong support for Wu Haogu over the years has inadvertently broken the window paper of philosophical restrictions.

Now Ji Yi and Li Gang have received the true scriptures from the West that can perfectly answer the questions of the previous saints. Therefore, Confucianism has been upgraded and has truly become a powerful school that can fight against Buddhism, Tianfang Buddhism and Christianity.

However, due to Ji Yi and the division of the empirical school introduced by Greek philosophy, Li Gang, will not only not weaken the power of Confucianism's innovation, but will instead make new Confucianism stronger. Because only division can have real thinking and promote the further development of Confucianism.

At the same time, Wu Haogu and Ji Yi's full use of the maritime power of the Song Dynasty also made the Song Dynasty a world empire that ruled the ocean.

Even if there are Jurchens and Mongols invasions in the future, such empires from mountains and forests and grasslands will not be able to destroy a huge marine empire. As long as this marine empire is not eliminated, the empirical faction, rationalism, Tianli faction and Neo-Confucianism will continue to grow and grow.

The fate of China has changed in the era under the control of Zhao Ji.

Therefore, no matter how hard Zhao Ji went through the rest of his life, he could not change his historical status as Emperor Genghis.

At this time, Zhao Ji had already gotten off the imperial chariot and sat on a high imperial throne. Looking at the hundreds of thousands of people from the Song Dynasty crowded together in the distance, his face was extremely bright and he looked around and said, "It's time to start?"

Beside Zhao Ji, Cai Jing and Zhang Shangying are naturally the ones who are closest. Zhang Shangying is not very active, frowned slightly, probably still worried that the "Northern Beggar Yanxi" will go south when it will go south?

Cai Jing was not worried about the north at all. He smiled and said to Zhao Ji: "Long live the imperial guards' mountain later, the voice will reach outside Nanxun Gate. Ji Yi and Li Gang will lead the mission into the city."

Zhao Ji nodded and asked softly, "Are you here to obey me as the emperor who owns all over the world?"

Cai Jing smiled and said, "Yes, the envoys from all countries have prepared a report and will be sent to Xuande Tower later. Your Majesty just nods and agrees, and like Li Shimin, he will have a title of overseas orders."

"Okay!" Zhao Ji smiled, "The King of China can command all nations. It is a rare event in the ages. When this event is over, I will go to seal Mount Tai and see the vast ocean!"
Chapter completed!
