Gongsun Du arrived in Zhuoxian and simply did not leave, and sent an order to Liaodong.

Long before, Zhuo County was designated as a state rule, to be precise, it became the ruling center of the Youzhou Army. After such a long time of expansion, the main construction was basically completed.

Today's Zhuo County is divided into an inner city and an outer city.

Let's talk about the outer city first, the outer city is divided into four areas: Dongcheng, Nancheng, Xicheng, and Beicheng, each of which is as big as the original Zhuoxian, with wide streets, all kinds of shops, and the residences of ordinary people hidden in the depths of the alleys. Like the original Zhuoxian, the difference is that it is more spacious and bright, and neat.

The inner city, which is also the original Zhuoxian county, corresponds to the southeast and northwest, and can also be called the middle city. The walls of the inner city have not changed much, mainly in height, reaching eight zhang and six feet. For eight, six, this is the number that most people like.

Compared with the changes in the city walls, the changes in the houses inside are the largest. Almost all of the original houses were demolished and rebuilt, with only one or two mansions preserving most of them.

Now that it has been rebuilt, there is one mansion that occupies about a quarter of the area of the inner city, and the rest has been built into thirty-six huge mansions, which occupy a quarter of the area; Seventy-two smaller mansions, also a quarter; The remaining quarter has been built into more than 360 small courtyards, which are small in size, but very chic, and much more beautiful than those houses in the outer city.

Gongsun Du naturally lived in the largest one, occupying a quarter of the mansion in the inner city. Since coming here, Gongsun Du has rarely gone out, but today, he came to the North City Gate, the North Gate of the outer city.

The appearance of Gongsun Du aroused the curiosity of many people, but they were all dispersed by Zhang Liao with his own soldiers. Originally, Zhang Liao did not agree with Gongsun Du to come here to pick up people.

Yes, pick up people. According to Qiao Yanglou's news, Zhang Zhi and the others will arrive today, so Gongsun Du will come here regardless of the obstacles.

Under the scorching sun, Gongsun Du's gaze to the north remained unchanged at all. Since Zhang Liao is here, he naturally won't say anything like going back, but just let people let the realm go out for a few miles. The outside doesn't have to be inside the city.

A few months have passed, but Zhang Liao has adapted to the life of the pro-soldier team and has done a decent job. Gongsun Du is also thinking in his heart, maybe he can release Zhang Liao next year to take charge of himself.

Suddenly, billowing smoke and dust billowed from the north. There is no way, the construction of the road is not so fast, and it has just rained a few days ago, and it is normal for the road to be dusty.

A smile appeared on Gongsun Du's resolute face, and a trace of tenderness flashed in his eyes.

The convoy was rapidly approaching, but Gongsun Du didn't have the slightest intention of catching up, just watched with tenderness, moving with the movement of the carriage.

"Meet the Lord!" A group of soldiers at the head came not far from the city gate, and they dismounted and came forward to pay respects.

"Well, get up!" Gongsun Du nodded casually, and then walked towards the carriage behind.

"Yes, my lord."

The curtain of the first carriage was lifted, revealing two delicate faces, looking at the figure of Gongsun Guo, and he was about to get out of the carriage.

"Sir! The concubine is ......"

Gongsun Du walked a few steps quickly and stopped: "If you have something to say, I'll talk about it when I enter the city." Then Gongsun Du drove Zhang Zhi and Xiaohuan into the carriage, sat on the wheel, and let the coachman continue to move forward.

In addition to Gongsun Du's family members who came this time, there were also Wei You, Xun You and their families, including some civil and military families who were originally in Xiangping and needed to move here. It is precisely for this reason that this relocation took 2,000 troops, a whole school, adding up to tens of thousands of people, stretching for 50 miles before and after.

However, Gongsun Du doesn't have to care about the arrangements of these people, and there are officials who have been waiting in the inner city for a long time to do it, plus Wei You, Xun You and others will not have any problems. He cared about his family now, and led them through the outer city to the inner city.

"Sir, is this where we will live in the future?"

When she arrived at the place, Zhang Zhi seemed to have forgotten what she wanted to say at the city gate, and looked at the Gongsun Mansion in front of her with some strangeness and uneasiness.

"That's right, we're going to live here in the future. And it's possible to live here all the time. Gongsun Du held Zhang Zhi's hand and said pointedly.

Zhang Zhi felt the warmth coming from her hands, and felt a little hot on her face. In the past, in front of so many people, she would break away, dead or alive, but not today, because in this strange place, only then would she feel at ease. The most important thing is that Gongsun Du's goodbye before made her very worried, thinking that she made Gongsun Du angry.

Gongsun Du was a little surprised, but then he didn't bother to pay attention to the reason, just turned his head and said to the family members who had already gotten off the carriage behind him: "Let's go, we're home." Then, he led Zhang Zhi to the house first.

The sentence "We are home" made everyone who was worried settle down. What Gongsun Du didn't know was that in the last carriage, Zhen Mi and Mi Zhen were carried, just because the second daughter deliberately delayed the time and didn't let him see it, otherwise he didn't know what would happen.

However, when it was time for the dinner party in the evening, Gongsun Du still found Zhen Mi and Mi Zhen, and couldn't help frowning.

"Master, don't scare your sisters." Seeing this, Zhang Zhi hurriedly spoke.

Gongsun Du still frowned, just looked at Zhang Zhi and said: "Although I don't object, I haven't passed the door yet, isn't this good?" ”

"I'm too worried!" Zhang Zhi breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, and then explained, "Although the lord hopes to give his sister a decent wedding, since everyone knows that they are from our family, they won't feel that there is anything wrong, at most, they can't see this." ”

Gongsun Du nodded when he heard this, and didn't say anything more, just comforted him casually, and seemed to be a little frightened by his second daughter: "Since you are here, then stay in peace, if there is any problem, discuss it with Zhi'er more." ”

"The master said very much, if you have anything to do with your sister, you will definitely not be wronged." Zhang Zhi followed and reassured.

Gongsun Du nodded, and then went back to talk to the others, especially Cai Yan.

"Did Xiaohai make trouble?" Gongsun Du looked at the child in Cai Yan's arms, and his face softened a little.

"There was a bit of a fuss before, but now it's a little late, and I'm already asleep." Cai Yan's face was also full of softness.

"If you fall asleep, let the next person take you to sleep!" Gongsun Du lowered his voice, as if he was afraid of waking up the child.

Cai Yan shook his head and said, "Don't, the concubine can take care of him." ”

Gongsun Du nodded and didn't say anything more. If a mother wants to take care of her child, what right does he have to deprive her!

The day after the dinner, Wei You, Xun You and others, who had not appeared since entering the city yesterday, came together.

"Subordinates meet the lord!"

"Excuse me. Sit it all! ”

"Thank you, Lord."

Gongsun Du waved his hand and immediately asked, "What do you think of Zhuoxian?" ”

"Yesterday, everyone has been around the city, and my subordinates think that Zhuo County is indeed not bad, adjacent to Taoshui, there is no shortage of water resources, and the surrounding terrain is flat, which makes the expansion of Zhuo County very easy. Moreover, the construction method of the inner and outer city not only saves time and effort, but also is a worthwhile way to build the city, which may change the pattern of city construction in the future. Unexpectedly, it was not Wei You who spoke first this time, but Xun You.

Gongsun Du looked at the two of them with flat faces, and understood that something had happened that he didn't know but could guess. It's probably what Wei You means when he prepares to let Xun You take the throne!

"Not bad!"

Gongsun Du praised it, and then mentioned it: "Zhuoxian has many advantages, but the surrounding roads have not yet been built, and they are not as good as Liaodong, which is likely to affect the timely transmission of orders." ”

"What the lord said is very true." "We must not only speed up the construction of roads, but also strengthen the management of various places to prevent accidents." ”

……

Gongsun Du and his subordinates got together and talked for a long time, until someone came to remind them that it was time for lunch. After a hurried lunch, I returned to the house and continued to discuss. It wasn't until the evening that it was barely over.

Since then, Zhuoxian County will become the center of Youzhou, and it will be the center for a long time.
