In order to control prices, Wu Zong also rectified shipping to increase the amount of materials held by the government. Since Zhu Qing and Zhang Xuan started the sea route for transporting grain from the south to the north in the 20th year of Yuan Dynasty (1283), the grain transportation from the south to the north has increased from less than 65,438+100000 to 65,438+100000 in seven or eight years. In the later period of Dade, the grain transported by sea reached 1.70- 1.8 million stone. By the time I was a sophomore (1309), one of the important measures for Shangshu to save money was to make the water transportation volume reach a new high. In two years, 2.46 million stones were shipped out, up to 2.38 million stones; In three years, 2.92 million stones were shipped, with a maximum of 27 1 10,000 stones. The transportation cost of sea tanks is 78% less than that of land transportation and 56% less than that of river tanks. The obvious increase in food supply in Gyeonggi area enabled the government to maintain the basic stability of the market by controlling food prices, thus alleviating the impact of monetary reform on society.
Other fiscal policies of Shangshu Province also include raising the price of salt (four taels for every quotation, compared with seven taels for every quotation in Yuan Zhen period); Open a wine ban, set up a wine class, and promote the company to collect wine tax; Increase the high-income tax of wealthy households in the south of the Yangtze River, and stipulate that if the grain income is more than 50,000 stones, each stone will be reduced by two liters; Chasing money and food owed by various places, and so on. These measures are also doomed to death, so they have not achieved results. During the Wuzong period, the policy of respecting Confucius was further promoted. Two months after he ascended the throne, the imperial edict added the word "Dacheng" before Confucius' title of "Supreme King" in order to achieve "Supreme King" and presented sacrifices to show his respect. Yan Fu, a Confucian minister, wrote an imperial edict: "It is not that Confucius is ignorant, but that he is sanctified by covering up Confucius;" The saints after Confucius have no choice but Confucius. The so-called ancestor Yao Shun, Charter Wu Wen, Fan Yibai Wang, and was a teacher of all previous dynasties. I sorted out and inherited my thoughts, respected the wind, followed the good rules of the ancient times, held a ceremony of chasing seals, and added a huge number to the sacred text to declare the king. Sending a special envoy to the palace sacrificed him too firmly. Yu! The relationship between father and son, the meaning of monarch and minister, will always be the respect of the holy religion; The world is big, the sun and the moon are bright, and the famous sayings are wonderful? It is still deified, it is my emperor. " This is the highest-ranking title that Confucius got in all previous dynasties (except Xixia). Later, China book friend Cheng Boluo Timur translated the Book of Filial Piety into Mongolian and dedicated it to General Wu, who gave instructions: "This is Confucius' humble opinion. From princes to common people, we should do what we want. In his life, books were not engraved and sealed, and kings gave them. " In addition, since the second year of Wu Zong (1309), Confucian scholars have been dismissed as a sign of preferential treatment for Confucian scholars.
Wu Zongchong's Confucianism is just an empty respect. What he really advocates is Tibetan Buddhism. Not only is he building a Buddhist temple and doing Buddhist services, but he has also introduced a policy of giving preferential treatment to lamas, stipulating that ordinary people beat the hands of lamas and insult their broken tongues. The crown prince loved to educate Li and stopped them in time. From Wuzong to the first year of Dayuan (1308), the Lama of Kaiyuan Temple in Shangdu forced to buy firewood, and the seller sued the Shangdu Li Mi. When Li Bizheng asked why, the lamas had rushed into the yamen with sticks, grabbed Li Bi's hair through the console table and dragged him to the ground to beat him. He was locked in a dark room and was released after a long time. Li Biben sued Yu, and in case of Amnesty, it went away. The following year, there were 18 lamas, including Gong Ke, and the princesses, the adopted daughters of the kings, suddenly grabbed the road, dragged the princess out of the car and beat her, and even insulted Wu Zong. After the matter was reported, Mr. Wu wrote a letter without asking. From these things, we can see that Wu Zongchao indulged Tibetan Buddhism and its power was powerful.
In addition, Zhang Yucai, the founder of Longhushan Shi Tian, came to Beijing after taking the throne in Wuzong, because Wuzong also had preferential treatment for Taoism. Since then, Wuzong has specially awarded Dr. Jin Guanglu, and awarded the Duke of Protecting the Country and Sikkim Seal. For Zhang Liusun, who once named him, Wu Zongjin personally summoned him to give up his seat and promoted him to be a real person. He was called Jixian Academy, a college student, and soon went to Jiajin to tell Wu Zongjin about Laozi's humility.
In the first year of the ceremony (1308), Wu Zong took An Baili, the predecessor of Anbailism. The reason is that the court found that Anbaili believers in Fujian secretly meet at night, get married and have children, fearing that it will become a social instability factor. Therefore, it was the first time in history that it was banned by Wu Zong. Purdue, the leader of Anbaili Sect, wrote to Wuzong, demanding that the ban be lifted. Since ordered comfort, also don't take it back. This ban was not lifted until Injong succeeded to the throne. When Yuan Wuzong was in China, the problem of the northwest frontier, which had plagued the Yuan Dynasty for decades, was finally solved, and peace was restored among several khanates in the Mongolian world. Before Wu Zong ascended the throne, he dealt a heavy blow to Haidu rebels in Mobei. Chabar, the son of Haidu, inherited the status of Wokuotai khanate and tried to make a comeback, but Wang Duwa, an important ally of Chagatai, decided to surrender to the Yuan Dynasty. The year before Wu Zong ascended the throne, he led an army across Jinshan and dealt a fatal blow to Chahar and other coastal areas. Later, Chahar was completely abandoned, and most of the territory of Wokuotai khanate was merged into Chahetai khanate. Cha Baer became a lost dog and wandered in the foothills of Jinshan Mountain. In desperation, Chabair led his troops to the Yuan court and entered the DPRK in the third year (13 10). Chabair's entry into the DPRK was a great event in Wu Zongshi, celebrating the DPRK. Wu Zongzhi solemnly announced this to the ancestral hall and specially hosted a banquet in the big court. He also gave Chabair all the silks of Haidu that had been detained since the fourth ancestor of Yuan Dynasty, and gave the Queen Mother a title to forgive the world. After Chahar surrendered, the Yuan Dynasty had peaceful exchanges with the khanates, and there was no more war. Among them, in the first year of Daoda (1308), twelve people, including Yuelu, a martial sect, went to Qincha Khanate and conferred the title of King Shu Chi Tuotuo as King of Suning.
During Wu Zongshi, the relationship between the Yuan Dynasty and North Korea further developed. The former king of North Korea (middle) participated in the decision to overthrow Brohan and Ananda and establish Wuzong. After Wu Zong succeeded to the throne, he was named King of Shenyang. In the first year of Dayuan (1308), at the request of North Korea, Yuan Wuzong withdrew all hundreds of bureaucrats from the eastern provinces to the Yuan Dynasty, leaving only korean king as prime minister, which was actually equivalent to recognizing North Korea's autonomy. In the same year, Wang Yun, a loyal king of South Korea, died, and Zhang Wang was made king of South Korea by Wu Zong. However, he stayed in Dadu and did not return to North Korea, which laid the groundwork for the tortuous development of Yuan-Li relations.
During the reign of Wu Zongshi, the Yuan Dynasty continued to maintain the suzerain-vassal relationship with Annan, and sent the minister An Luwei to Annan to announce his accession to the throne. Prince Annan (actually the king) Chen Ri? Send a messenger to congratulate you. One of the messengers is Mo Tingzhi. In the Yuan Dynasty, many interesting things happened to Wu Zongjun and his ministers, which became a much-told story in the history of Sino-Vietnamese relations. In the second and fourth years of high school, Annan sent envoys to pay tribute respectively.
