Li Chengqian has always wanted to do something, but after he was really imprisoned again, he found that there seemed to be nothing to do.
Before his father left Beijing, he was gearing up and ready to do a big job, but when his father left, he found that he had no way to start.
He was very envious of his teacher Li Chao, who could leave the ministry of Hanjing's left-behind and auxiliary minister without saying a word, and be able to relax at home, and only go to court once in five days, but it was just a formality.
When I asked him about something, he pushed it to the three of them.
Why is Taishi like this, because Taishi thinks he is too young to do things, he thinks to himself.
But he was not willing to just sit on the royal chair of the Golden Palace and do the decorations, the crown prince and young master Yang Gongren said that the affairs of the court and the central government were just left to them, and His Royal Highness did not need to worry about it.
But he is the prince of the prison country, and he is not the prince of the prison country a few years ago, he was not crowned at that time, and now, he has been crowned to 0 people, so his prison country should be able to control the court left behind.
"You are His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the prince of the Tang Dynasty."
The crown prince, Fu Duyan, said that he reminded him, "Your Highness is still young now, just study more." ” He has been studying for nine years.
Since his father became emperor, he was canonized as the crown prince, and then followed to learn government affairs.
Two days earlier, the mission of the Western Roman State had arrived.
They came from the far west, along the Silk Road, over the Green Mountains, the Tianshan Mountains, through the Hexi Corridor, and then through Chang'an, and then to Luoyang.
Finally, it was transferred from Xingyang to the canal, passed through Bianzhou and then along the Cai River, followed the newly built West Canal, and arrived at Hanjing by boat.
That messenger was the son of the Roman Emperor Flavies Heraclius, a prince.
The prince brought with him a large mission, and Rome had sent missions to Tang in the past, but never before, as high in size and on a large scale as this one.
It was a mission of nearly 1,000 people, with a huge camel caravan carrying countless Roman goods and Roman gifts to the Tang Emperor.
But they were a step too late, and the emperor had already gone to Mount Tai.
Cheng Qian sent officials from Honglu Temple to greet the delegation on his behalf, and arranged for them to stay in Honglu Temple.
"Teacher, what do you say about the Roman mission?"
Cheng Qian was in the Golden Palace every morning, but after retiring from the Dynasty, he was still in the East Palace.
Tomorrow will officially receive the Roman prince, but Cheng Qian still does not know the meaning of the Roman mission.
He specially announced that Li Chao would enter the palace to listen to the opinion of this smart teacher.
Yang Xiangguo said that the Romans had brought a lot of goods, saying that they had come this time to trade.
Li Chao smiled, he sat there with a cup of tea, "Your Highness, the Romans did come with a lot of goods, but the trade was just incidental.
They won't let a prince come to trade in particular, after all, we are tens of thousands of miles away from them. ” Speaking of this, Li Chao asked Cheng Qian, "How much does His Highness know about this Rome?"
"Rome is said to be a powerful western state that already existed during the Han Dynasty" In fact, the Tang people didn't know much about Rome, after all, it was so far away, and they couldn't tell the difference between the Roman Republic, the Roman Empire, and the Eastern and Western Roman Empires.
What is now called Rome is the Eastern Roman Empire, and in later history, in order to compete with the Roman Empire and the Holy Roman Empire, Eastern Rome was called the Byzantine Empire.
But in fact, after thousands of years of the Eastern Roman Empire, until its demise, they themselves never called themselves Byzantium.
The Roman Empire was established when the twelfth emperor of the Western Han Dynasty, Emperor Han Cheng, was established, and when the Roman Empire was established, the Western Han Dynasty was about to be usurped by Wang Mang.
When the Roman Republic was established, it was even more traced back to the Spring and Autumn Period in China, when the Roman Republic was established, Confucius was opening an altar to teach and recruit disciples.
However, the Roman Republic was not the beginning of Rome, and in 510 BC, the Romans expelled the former tyrant and ended the Roman monarchy, and the Roman Republic was established.
From the Roman monarchy, to the Roman Republic, to the Roman Empire, and then to the division of Rome into kings, Rome can be described as a strong representative of civilization in the West.
Rome expanded and became powerful during the Roman Republic, which was originally a concept of a city-state, and later expanded into a multi-ethnic, multi-religious, multi-lingual, and multi-cultural power around the Mediterranean.
By the end of the Western Han Dynasty in China, the Roman Senate conferred the title of Viogustus on Gaius, and the Roman Republic entered the imperial era.
Four hundred years later, Theodosius I divided the empire among his two sons, and the Roman Empire was divided into two and ruled permanently.
Eighty years later, Western Rome perished due to internal and external troubles, while Eastern Rome was destroyed by the Ottomans nearly a thousand years later.
"Your Royal Highness, the Central Plains called Rome Great Qin in ancient times, and later called Eastern Rome as Fula, Rome, which is the end point of Silk Road trade.
We believe that Rome was a civilized dynasty as developed as the Central Plains, so we called it Great Qin. ” Cheng Qian smiled, "It seems that I didn't take the geography and world history I studied with the teacher seriously enough, so I'll make up for the class today." ” "The current Eastern Roman emperors are Flavis and Heraclius.
This emperor is actually a founding emperor."
Cheng Qian was stunned, "Shouldn't the founding emperor of Eastern Rome have been established for more than 200 years?"
"It's true, but it's not entirely."
Li Chao continued to explain to Cheng Qian, "Heraclius's father was a key figure in the war with the Persian usurper Heram during the period of Emperor Maurice, and after the war, Morris appointed Heraclius the elder as the governor of Africa. ” "Let me tell you this, even a few decades ago, Eastern Rome was actually going downhill.
About thirty years ago, an army rebelled, shouting slogans against the emperor and marching on the capital.
Led by a centurion, the rebel army, led by a centurion, with the support of the capital's people, quickly captured the capital and pushed Emperor Maurice and his people, as well as the court's hostile ministers, to the bridle. ” "That centurion also ascended to the sky and became the new emperor of the empire."
"Ah, a centurion has succeeded in mutiny," Cheng Qian thought incredible.

Centurion, and he rebelled from the locality and made his way into the capital.
Isn't the Roman Empire very powerful and has a vast territory, how can a centurion take the capital and kill the emperor, and the emperor won't run away He remembered that in the last Hanjing Rebellion, the Emperor Taishang took advantage of the new policy to arouse the dissatisfaction of many bureaucrats of the old lord family, restored the chaos, received the support of countless people, and pulled up hundreds of thousands of horses, but the result was not successful.
"Your Highness, the centurion, though usurped the throne as emperor, was not justified in his name, and he was fiercely opposed from the very beginning by the imperial senate, the great nobles, and the bureaucracy, so they quickly provoked civil war in the eastern provinces, and Persia, the old rival of the Eastern Romans for many years, also took the opportunity to wage war."
"When the Persian emperor led his army to attack Rome, he also brought a puppet who claimed to be the son of Emperor Maurice and seized a large area of Rome."
"Eastern Rome was mired in an eight-year bloody civil war and endured a Persian invasion."
"And in the midst of this chaotic battle, Heraclius, the son of the governor of Africa, stood up at the most opportune time," "The Heraclius renounced their allegiance to the centurion, and they marched into the army.
It took only two years for the Heraclius' army, which was supported by all sides, to reach the capital. ” "Heraclius made an agreement with the nobles of all sides, etc., and they crowned Heraclius as emperor.
The forbidden Hun of the capital also surrendered to Heraclius, who captured the centurion Emperor Phocas and subsequently executed him.
In the autumn of the same year, Heraclius officially ascended the throne as emperor and established the Heraclius dynasty" "Some understand, some don't."
After listening to this, Cheng Qian felt that his brain was a little messy.
"Heraclius became emperor, was it still the Eastern Roman Empire?"
"You can understand it this way, my Central Plains has been the Chinese Empire for thousands of years, from Qin to Han, from Han to Wei and Jin, to Sui and then to Tang, and has also experienced many dynasties, but they are all Chinese orthodoxy and in the same line."
"Oh, I get it when I say that.
In this way, Rome actually had several dynasties. ” "Teacher, this Chirac is a little powerful."
That is, Heraclius established his dynasty twenty years earlier, and since then he has been at war with Persia repeatedly, gradually reclaiming the land that Persia had taken advantage of the civil war.
In addition, he also carried out comprehensive reforms, which made Rome, which had been declining from the beginning, strong again. ” "This emperor is a very ambitious emperor, if my guess is right, he sent the prince to the Tang Dynasty this time, he must have seen the contradiction between our Tang Dynasty and Persia.
Feng Shui rotates, and more than 20 years ago, there was civil strife in Rome.
And in the past few years, since Kusi Lao II was killed by his son, Persia has changed five emperors in five years, and even Kusi Lao's two daughters have been emperors for one year each, which can be described as chaos, and now the power of Persia has fallen into the hands of those generals. ” "How could Heraclius miss such a good opportunity" "Teacher, are you saying that Rome wants to join forces with my Tang Dynasty and crusade against Persia together" Cheng Qian suddenly understood.
Li Chao said appreciatively, "That's right, that's it."
Although Rome has recuperated all these years, it has been a great injury after all.
Rome has been in turmoil in recent years, but its strength is still very strong.
Rome fought against Persia, and Rome may not be able to win.
Therefore, it is obvious that they came to us and wanted to join us in the crusade against Persia. ” "Rome and my Tang Dynasty join forces, and if the east and west are attacked, Persia will be defeated.
This is a win-win cooperation, and Emperor Heraclius has a good plan. ” Cheng Qian frowned and pondered.
"Teacher, then my Datang is going to join forces with Rome?"
"Your Highness might as well promise the Roman prince first, and as for the specific plan for joint cooperation, you can talk about it slowly."
Li Chao smiled like a fox. t1706231537:
