Daming Yuanfu

Chapter 607 Sibo Tian Yang, Liang Guang Cen Huang

The eight prefectures... No, the yamen of the inspector censor is called the Procuratorate, and the yamen of the governor is called the Metropolitan Courtyard, which sounds good, and together they become the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

In Guilin, the "two courtyards" are next to each other. It is a little exaggerated to say that they are separated by a wall, but they are indeed on the same street.Therefore, after Governor Zhang returned to the capital with his subordinates, since Master Futai had to recuperate from his illness, some people could come to register with Master Tai first to make friends.

It can be seen here that the closeness is coming, it is not an old friend, and generally dare not disturb immediately.

Gao Yushi has never been to Guangxi in this life, but he has made old friends. Hu Wei, the admiral of Guangxi Xuezheng, the right deputy capital, and Zhao Yumin, the chief envoy of Guangxi, are old friends.

Although the two of them didn't have much direct contact with Gao Yushi before, the relationship between Daming official circles is so amazing—they all came to visit Gao Yushi in the name of visiting "brothers".

The disciples of Zuoshi and Fangshi can all be called senior brothers, regardless of age.

And Gao Yushi called them both Senior Brother and Senior Brother.

"Brother Gao inspected a province at the age of a weak crown, this is the first time since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, this holy family is as mountainous as the sea!"

"Haha, that's right, brother Gao Shi, you are the number one scholar of the six poems, you are unparalleled in the world, and you have to be so reused. I am afraid that you will join the cabinet to assist the government in your thirties in the future? Brother Yu, I will ask you to take care of me in the future."

Gao Yushi was naturally modest and courteous. After the two parties settled down, the three of them chatted about the old news in Beijing, and then gradually got down to business.

After all, Hu Wei was the oldest, so he was the first to speak: "Brother Shi's knowledge, no one in the world will be dissatisfied, but this place in Guangxi is a little different from other places. Although Brother Yu has only been in Guangxi for two years, he has a deep feeling. .”

Gao Wushi said: "My younger brother is young and has little knowledge, and he is a northerner who came to patrol the southern border. I don't know everything, and I feel very embarrassed. I am going to ask my elder brother for advice."

Hu Wei brushed his beard and said with a smile: "Brother Shi has saved my life, so how dare I ask for advice."

What he said was about two years ago, when Hu Wei was only 45 or six years old, but when he returned to Beijing to report on his duties, he was seriously ill and almost died. That's why Hu Wei said this. [Wufeng Note: In history, Hu Wei died in the seventh year of Wanli at the age of 46. ]
Gao Wushi just smiled when he heard this, and didn't continue, because this conversation would interrupt the conversation again.

Sure enough, after Hu Wei said this sentence, he immediately took the conversation back, saying, "In the final analysis, there are only two words for the chaos in Guangxi: Tong and Yao. This book does not use it). And these two words can be discussed separately. Most of the children are those who obey and control, and most of the Yao people are those who cause chaos. Therefore, children are more chieftains, while Yao people are more provocative."

Gao Wushi nodded. This is the so-called issue of ethnic integration and ethnic conflicts.

However, his way of thinking is different from that of the current Ming people. In his eyes, not to mention Tongren and Yao people, even Mongolia can be assimilated, and there is no discrimination.

Dare not to assimilate the world, at least assimilate East Asia, he has no psychological barriers, whether it can be achieved is another matter.

Hu Wei said again: "The rebellion of the Yao people has existed since the founding of the Ming Dynasty. Today, the main scope of the rebellion is probably in the southeast of Guangxi and the west of Guangdong. Most of these Yao people live in the mountains and forests. Sometimes they resist the Celestial Empire. The county has been poisoned everywhere, and it has been deeply troubled by the past dynasties, so the governors of Guangdong and Guangxi were all vigilant at all times, but if the Yao people rebelled, they would mobilize large armies to suppress them."

This Gao Yushi knows it, and he also knows that since the Ming Dynasty, the distribution range of the Yao people in Guangxi has been changing.In the early and middle period of Ming Dynasty, the Yao people mainly gathered in the eastern part of Guangxi.But in the early Qing Dynasty, the Yao people in West Guangxi increased significantly, while the Yao people in Dongdong Guangxi decreased day by day.By the end of the Qing Dynasty, almost all the Yao people were distributed in remote mountainous areas throughout Guangxi.

The first and most important reason here is that compared with Tong people, Yao people are more obviously resistant to Sinicization, and because of resistance, it is easier to cause misunderstandings and confrontations, and then evolve into various conflicts, so there is nothing to say. chant.

After beating and beating, he was driven to the deep mountains and old forests.

It is said that in the earliest times, the population gap between the Tong people and the Yao people was not big, but in later generations, the gap has widened to such an extent that the population of the Tong people (Zhuang) is more than five times that of the Yao people.

The reason why the Tongren developed better than the Yao people is that they clearly accepted and supported the rule of the central dynasty while maintaining their own independence. Therefore, there have been Tongren chieftains for a long time who ruled the local area in a hereditary capacity.

In Guangxi, Zuojiang and Youjiang areas are the most prosperous.

It just so happened that Hu Wei also mentioned this matter, and he said to Gao Wushi: "The Yao people do not obey Wang Hua, and they can only subdue them through the ages, while the Tong people are much better. The chieftain families generally obey orders For example, when the Japanese were suppressed in the south of the Yangtze River, Mrs. Wa, who was in charge of Tianzhou and Guiyizhou, led thousands of soldiers to expedition to the south of the Yangtze River, and gained a lot of success, so she was named the second-rank wife."

Gao Wushi smiled: "My little brother knows something about this."

Hu Wei nodded, but became serious again, and said solemnly: "But brother, don't think that all the boy chieftains are honest. I don't know if there is a third of them who are really honest. The rest, Most of them are obedient on the surface, and all kinds of obedience and disobedience behind their backs are absolutely indispensable. There are even some rebellious people who are usually lawless, and there are often internal strife among the children of major families because of inheritance and other things. , and even attack each other, it is really a disaster."

Gao Wushi nodded and asked, "Who is the most powerful of the Guangxi chieftain family?"

Hu Wei and Zhao Yumin looked at each other, and said at the same time: "Brother Shi, don't you know the saying 'Si broadcasting Tian Yang, Liang Guang Cen Huang'?"

Thanks to the blessing of "Bozhou Rebellion", one of the three major campaigns in Wanli, "Sibotian Yang" Gao Pragmatism knows it, but he refers to the Sizhou Tian family and the Bozhou Yang family.

Sizhou, Tianjiashi Town, its history can be traced back to the Sui Dynasty. In the second year of Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty (582), Tian Zongxian was the governor of central Guizhou, and then ruled here hereditary.At the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the Tian family was separated into Sinan and Sizhou.So far, Sinan and Sizhou Tian's Xuanweisi are the two chieftains among the four chieftains in Guizhou.

Sizhou Tian's chieftain is one of the most famous chieftains in the history of central Guizhou. It has been hereditary for thousands of years and has a vast territory. "Sibo Tianyang" means that Sizhou belongs to Tian's chieftain, and Bozhou belongs to Yang's chieftain.

However, during the Yongle period, a conflict broke out between Sinan and Sizhou Tian's Xuanwei Division for the cinnabar vein, which is known as the Battle of the Bunker in history.This fatal internal strife became an excellent excuse for Emperor Yongle to solve the Sizhou chieftain issue.He sent troops to suppress, and arrested the two chieftains of Sizhou, Tian Chen and Sinan Tian Zongyi, and put them to death in the capital the following year.As a result, Sizhou Tusi ceased to exist, and the power of the Tian family was greatly reduced.However, the centipede is dead but not stiff, and the Tian family still retains the position of Chief Law Officer.

Therefore, although there are many chieftains in Guizhou, the Yang family in Bozhou is the most prosperous, followed by the Shui'an family, Sizhou Tian family, and Shuidong Song family.

Gao Yushi learned about these major chieftain families in Guizhou because of the Bozhou Rebellion, but Gao Yushi in Guangxi is not very clear, so he really has no impression of "Guangdong Cenhuang"-maybe they are relatively honest ?

However, Hu Wei and Zhao Yumin seemed to be quite afraid of this "Liangguang Cen Huang". They looked at each other, and Hu Wei said, "According to Taiwan, you must be patrolling various places after you take office." , but please be very careful when you press the station. When patrolling the Zuojiang and Youjiang areas, try to avoid enmity with the two chieftains, Cen and Huang, otherwise..."
