Chapter 1157: In the Hall of Jin Luan, Ma Dayou
This dynasty meeting was held in Fengtian Temple, which is the Hall of Supreme Harmony of later generations, also known as Jin Luan Temple. Under normal circumstances, the Golden Luang Temple is not easily activated. It will only be held at the Jin Luang Hall during the Zhengdan Dynasty, the Winter Solstice and the Longevity Festival (the emperor ’s birthday), the emperor ’s enthronement, the big marriage, the expedition ceremony, and the Shuowang Dynasty (the first and fifteenth month of the month).
Usually, in the early dynasty, the ministers worked very hard. Because, the general early dynasty was not held in the hall at all, but in Fengtianmen (Taihemen), also known as "Yumen Tingzheng". The emperor was better, sitting in the dragon chair in the hallway under the door to hear. The ministers stood on the open ground outside the Fengtian Gate. If the three seasons of spring, summer, autumn and autumn are okay, in the winter, the cold winds together will almost freeze the dead.
Exactly, June 15th was the year of the Shuowangchaoli. The Ming court simply took the opportunity to hold a ceremony in the Jin Luang Temple to meet Marin, the foreign monarch.
Before stepping into the Jin Luan Temple, Marin was nervous. After all, this battle is a bit big. But Marin secretly cheered himself up:
"Don't be afraid, I'm here to play a costume play, I'm here to play a costume play ... Ma Da Hu You, come on ..."
Under the guidance of officials of the Ministry of Rites, Ma Lin, holding Chaohu, bowed his head slightly seriously, and stood carefully at a distance from the emperor. Then, Marin knelt down in the middle of the hall, held Wat in both hands, and prayed for five worship. Then, with his right hand holding Wat alone, let go with his left hand and perform the three-knapping gift ...
At the same time as percussion, Marin shouted:
"Secretary, Marin, the landlord of the Beihai Kingdom, the land of Taixi, percussed His Majesty the Emperor! Long live the emperor!" Marlin did not raise his head immediately, but continued to lie down, waiting for Zhengde's instructions.
"Are you the Ma Guozhu of the northwestern maritime kingdom of Thailand? Sit down, raise your head and let me see!" Emperor Zhengde, who was only 18 years old on the dragon chair of Jin Luan Temple, said with interest.
"Thank you Lord Ron!" Marin replied according to the routine.
In the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the ministers all spoke on their knees. Being able to get back from kneeling up without emperor, according to the feudal ritual system, is indeed a kind of grace.
In fact, the reason why Emperor Zhengde asked Marin to stand up and let him look up was just curious to see what Marin looked like. How can I see clearly if I kneel?
When Marin raised his head and raised his chest, everyone was taken aback ...
After all, Marin is a big man about 1.8 meters tall. In the ancient Ming Dynasty, this was definitely a tall man. Although the northerners are tall, there are definitely not many people who can reach 1.8 meters in this era, but many of them are more than 1. 7 meters. The southerners of this era can be considered a big man after 1.17.
As it happens, the Ming Dynasty civil servants are mostly southerners. After all, southern culture is prosperous and it is easier to produce talent than the north. Of course, this does not mean that southerners are smarter than northerners. It is because there are many paddy fields in the south and the crops are ripe at least twice a year. Therefore, the economic conditions of Southerners are generally better and the enrollment rate is high. If there are more students, there will naturally be more talents. In the north, dry land is cultivated, and it is difficult to achieve two crops a year. It is also often drought-prone and naturally poor. Studying is very expensive. Northerners are poor. Naturally, there are fewer people studying, and there are fewer talents. Therefore, in the Ming dynasty, the southerners, who were not tall, had the upper hand and were the main force of the court officials. If it were not for Zhu Yuanzhang to force Jinshi to enroll according to the proportion of "six south and four north", it is estimated that the northerners will rarely be officials in the DPRK.
But even with Zhu Yuanzhang's special care, the northerners' academic performance was not satisfactory. Although forty percent of the Jinshi are Northerners, there are very few Northern Scholars in the top three. Most of the top picks, list eyes, and flowers are Southerners. Among them, Nanzhili, Zhejiang Province, and Jiangxi-Western Provinces have the most people.
Although there are 300 jinshi per subject, only the top ranked jinshi will have a greater chance to stay in the Chaotang. As for the lower ranking, most of them went to Dangzhi County. Therefore, the ministers of North Korea and China are mostly scholars from the south. Of course, the average height is not high.
Emperor Zhengde was more than 1 meter 7 tall, which was not short in Daming. However, compared with the 1.8-meter Marin, it is still a lot shorter.
The young Zhengde Emperor looked at Marin curiously and muttered:
"Yellowish blue, fair complexion, it really is a typical image of the Thai West ghost ..."
At this time, there was no murmur on Jin Luan Hall. In order to see clearly, Emperor Zhengde also asked Marin to step forward. Therefore, Marin heard the words of Emperor Zhengde.
A few black lines suddenly appeared on Marin's head, and the people were fanatics. Why is it impolite to bring the word "ghost" ...
...
Then, the portrait of Zhengde Emperor Zhu Hou remembered something and asked curiously:
"Ma Guozhu, I think you are an out-and-out Thai and Western ghost. Why is your official saying so good? And, there is a northern accent ..."
Marin spoke authentic Mandarin in later generations, but the Mandarin of the Ming Dynasty had a southern accent. After all, the first of the Ming Dynasty was Nanjing, which belonged to the Jiangnan region.
Later, due to the entry of the Qing Dynasty into the customs, the Mandarin of Beijing became closer to the northern accent. Therefore, in the Ming dynasty, Marin's Mandarin was very close to that of the northern people in Yanzhao's land, which spoke Mandarin with a hometown flavor.
...
"This ..." Marin thought for a while, and began "reciting lines" ...
These "lines" are all Marlin's thoughts, which are pure fiction ...
So, Marin sighed and began to pretend ... Abu, it was time to talk back ...
"Your Majesty, there is a teacher named Einstein. In his early years, he traveled all over the world and came to ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ on the southern coast of Daming. There, he learned from my ancestor. The master's abilities, and at the same time, also learned the northern official language of the master's ancestor. Then, he was taught to the minister ... It is said that the master's ancestor is the master of the imagination, and his ancestral name is the land of the famous North Yan Zhao , A mandarin spoken mandarin ... "
"It turns out that ..." Emperor Zhengde nodded. Marin's explanation is very reasonable, and Zhu Houzhao is still very young, at this time it is easy to trust others ...
...
"So, Lord Ma, you claim to be the Lord of the Beihai Kingdom. How many people and strength is there in the Beihai Kingdom?"
Marin sighed again and continued to play Fool:
"Your Majesty, the minister ’s Beihai Kingdom is about the same size as South Korea of the" Sengoku Seven Heroes ", which is equivalent to the area of Daming and Zhejiang Province. As for the population, it is less than 20 million ... Also, Beihai ’s military strength is about More than 60,000 people ... "
"What? There are 60,000 troops in the population of less than 2 million? This is too poor, right?" The ministers in Chaotang suddenly discussed.
The Daming Empire had a population of nearly 100 million, and the army had only 90,000 in Zhengde Dynasty. In other words, the ratio of the number of the Ming Dynasty team to the population is only about 1%. In Beihai, the army accounts for more than 3% of the total population. Its proportion is more than three times that of the Ming Dynasty. In the eyes of the Ming Dynasty literati who "respect harmony", there are indeed some poor soldiers ...
...
Emperor Zhengde was influenced by his group of officials, and felt that the size of the Beihai team was too large. Facing Zhengde's inquiry, Marin, who had a good acting skills, complained bitterly:
"Your Majesty, the minister does not want to raise so many troops ..." Then, Marin performed a new round of fooling in the Jin Luan Temple ...
