Chapter 47: Luoyi

A quarter of an hour later, Wu Shiqi finally returned to Ling Mansion again.

"How's the situation?" Ling Hao asked without looking back, with his hands behind his back.

"It's not bad, they're safe. Uskie took off his hat and put on the clean clothes he had prepared a long time ago.

"You won't hold a grudge against me if I gouged out one of your eyes like this, right?"

"If Ling Gongzi doesn't kill me, there must be something to serve next, right?"

"It's good that you're a man of love and righteousness, but it's hard to get a foothold in this troubled world. Ling Hao sighed lightly.

"So, what does Ling Gongzi mean?"

"You have to go somewhere else, preferably find a place where no one is paying attention and settle down, so that at least your mother and sister can be saved. ”

"But what other place in the world is safe?" Wu Shiqi smiled bitterly.

"Luoyi. Ling Hao spit out a name lightly.

"Luoyi, isn't that ......?"

The so-called Luoyi, in fact, is the ancient name of Luoyang, the capital of the Zhou Dynasty, Luoyang is known as "the breadth of the eight directions, Zhou Luo is the middle, called Luoyi", the earliest "China" location, is one of the largest cities in the world at that time. "Shangshu" called "Tuzhong", "Luoshi", "Luoyi", "Xinyi Luo", and "Dongguo Luo". He Zun's inscriptions call "Cheng Zhou", "China", "Wangcheng" and so on. On both sides of the Luoyi River, there are two capitals, the Zhou Dynasty Chengzhou City and the Wang City.

Luoyi is the place where King Wu of Zhou settled in the Central Plains, and the place where King Cheng of Zhou "Zhaizi China". King Wu of Zhou moved to Jiuding, Zhou Gong to Taiping, and the camp took Luoyi as the capital, which was for Chengzhou. After the success of King Wu's invasion, he set about establishing a new capital in the center of the country, establishing the Zhou dynasty in 1046 BC. Two years later, King Wu died of illness and was succeeded by King Cheng of Zhou. Then, the Duke of Zhou was ordered to go east to quell the rebellion and build the capital into the city of Zhou. During the Western Zhou Dynasty, Wangcheng (Luoyi) was the temple palace area of the Zhou Dynasty, and Chengzhou City was the Yin relics settlement area. During the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, King Ping of Zhou moved the capital to Luoyi, and when King Jing of Zhou occurred, there was a "rebellion of the prince's dynasty", and King Jing of Zhou moved to refuge in Chengzhou City, which lived in the east of the water.

The construction of Chengzhou City is recorded in detail in the "Book of Shang", "Book of Yizhou", "Historical Records" and the inscriptions of He Zun of the Zhou Dynasty unearthed. These edicts summarize the guiding ideology of the construction of the capital in the Shang and Zhou dynasties, that is: the capital is mainly political function, and it is a tool for Zhou Tianzi to obtain political power and implement political rule, therefore, the location of the capital must be selected in the center of the world, and the Son of Heaven wants to govern all the people in the world from the central region of the world, and the site selection and construction of the capital into Zhou Luoyi is the most successful embodiment and practice of this kind of city building thought in the Shang and Zhou dynasties, and Luoyi is also the first capital city in Chinese history that is clearly recorded in the history of the country at the national level.

Emperor Guangwu of the Eastern Han Dynasty Liu Xiuding capital Luoyang, the Han Dynasty to the king of Huode, avoid water, so go to the water and add the Yu, change Luo to Luoyang, is for Luoyang. Later Wei was the king of Tude, and the flowing soil was soft and watery, so it added water in addition to the sting.

After the Western Zhou Fenghao was invaded and destroyed by the dog Rong, the king of Zhou Ping moved the capital to Chengzhou, and since then Chengzhou has also been called the royal city. In 516 B.C., King Jing of Zhou ascended the throne, and because of the power of the prince dynasty in the royal city, he moved to the place where the Yin people lived in the past. Later, due to the rebellion of the prince's dynasty, the Jin State led the princes to build a new capital for King Jing of Zhou in 510 BC, which was located in the east of the White Horse Temple in Luoyang in later generations. The new city is called "Chengzhou" and is commonly known as "Eastern Zhou", while the old city is called "Wangcheng" and is commonly known as "Western Zhou". Since then, Chengzhou and Wangcheng have been divided into two places, but they are both near Luoyang City. By the time of King Zhou, King Zhou moved back to the old capital of Wangcheng.

After the death of Qin, Liu Bang proclaimed himself emperor in Luoyang and established the Han Dynasty, known as the Western Han Dynasty in history.

After that, Chengzhou gradually expanded into Luoyang City in the Han and Wei dynasties, until the Great Sui Dynasty, when Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Ming Dynasty moved the residents of the original two cities to settle in the newly built eastern capital Luoyang City, and the two cities were abandoned.

It can be said that before Yang Guangxing built the eastern capital of Luoyang, Luoyi was the most prosperous political center in ancient China, at the foot of the Son of Heaven.

And in this world, because the Zhou royal family has a once-in-a-century martial arts wizard, who has been promoted to the realm of gods and demons as a woman, and suppressed the Seven Kingdoms for fifty-six years, it is precisely because of her existence that the Zhou royal family has not been destroyed by the Seven Kingdoms, it can be said that in this high-martial world, the reason why the Seven Kingdoms still dare not attack the Zhou royal family, and still respect the Zhou royal family on the surface, in fact, it is basically supported by her alone, which shows how terrible the strength of this female grandmaster of the Zhou Kingdom is.

It is precisely because of this that Luoyi, the capital of the Zhou royal family, was able to survive, if it weren't for such a demon in the Zhou royal family, I'm afraid Luoyi would have been affected by the open and secret struggle of the Seven Kingdoms.

The royal princes of the Seven Kingdoms, the children of the nobles will naturally not be stupid enough to directly challenge such an existence, so they can only choose to continue to "respect the king" and beat out the seemingly righteous banner of the Zhou royal family...... Naturally, it was aimed at the intrigues between Qin and Chu.

It is very strange to say that while the five kingdoms of Han, Zhao, Wei, Yan and Qi fought with each other, they also despised Qin and Chu very unanimously in tactics, and constantly criticized Qin and Chu, not only scolded openly, but also secretly sent people into the territory of Qin and Chu to make trouble, and every time it was the Zhou royal family who mediated between it, so that there was no large-scale war.

In recent years, the phenomenon of Qin and Chu nobles marrying each other has reappeared, as for why...... It's not that the Five Kingdoms are pressing too hard, so they simply don't play with them and form an alliance with the Qin State.

Although five hundred years ago, King Yingzheng of Qin, who was looking down on the world, almost destroyed the state of Chu, but before he could digest it, Jing Ke, the great master of the Yan State, assassinated Yingzheng, which led to the scene of the continued confrontation of the seven kingdoms today.

In these five hundred years, the Seven Kingdoms have won and lost each other, but without the reign of King Yingzheng of Qin, the unification of the world has become an unknown, and everyone is very confused, and they all want to find their own path, a broad road to success.

But others are groping their way forward, but Ling Hao is standing on the shoulders of the giant of history, his goal is clearer than anyone in this world, to improve the people's livelihood, to grasp the people's hearts, to use public opinion, and then to divide the world, and slowly encroach on the territory of the Seven Kingdoms......

As for the Zhou royal family, it is okay to deal with it in the end, at least until that person dies.

It is impossible for that female grandmaster to protect the Zhou royal family all the time, and she will pass away one day, so ...... What's the point if you wait for the next twenty or thirty years?

Before that, you might as well learn how Zheng Zhuanggong dealt with his younger brother, hold the Zhou royal family a little higher, let them get carried away, relax their vigilance, and tear it off the clouds and break it when the time is right in the future.

"I've been thinking about it for a long time, at present, the territory of the Seven Kingdoms is not stable, no matter where you take your family, you may be conspired by others, only the place under the jurisdiction of the Zhou royal family, Luoyi, here is much more peaceful and peaceful than the Seven Kingdoms, you take your family over there, maybe you can live a peaceful life. ”

"That's the best way I can think of at the moment, do you have any objections?"

"Ling Gongzi is so benevolent, he naturally has no objections. ”

"In that case, you go down and prepare, tomorrow at dusk, I will entrust Ying'er's family to come and take you out of the city. ”

"Thank you, Young Master Ling. Uskie left gratefully.

"At this point in time, it should be coming soon......" Ling Hao touched his chin.

"Husband, the third brother has come to Yongcheng and is now waiting outside the door. ”

"Oh, just as he was talking, he really came, let's go, and Madame and I will go to meet the third uncle in person." When Ling Hao heard Shan Ying say this, he immediately smiled, and pulled Shan Ying to walk out of the study.

I heard that Shan Ying has three elder brothers, and this time she came to the third brother, so she still has to be polite, although Shan Ying, the little lady, has not been married for a long time, but Ling Hao likes her frank personality very much, and she will naturally not deliberately slack off on Shan Ying's mother's family, which will only appear to be a small family of the Ling family, which is not conducive to the long-term cooperation and political operation of the two families.

The Ling family needs the help of the single family to carry out propaganda work, and the single family also needs the political status of the Ling family in Yongcheng to take root in the Qin State, and only by maintaining this favorable situation can the single family continue to cooperate with the Ling family.
