Chapter 0234: Penglai Immortal Island
The court discussion ended in the controversy of the ministers, fortunately, for the northern and southern armies, there was still good news, the Son of Heaven allowed them to return to Luoyang, repairs, and Zhang Wen's suggestion did not get the permission of the Son of Heaven, and he left the hall helplessly, however, his proclamation still stayed with the Son of Heaven, although the Son of Heaven did not advocate war, but he still needed a sword like Zhang Wen.
At the same time, Zhang Jiao left Luoyang, he went to Youzhou, to find Dong Zhuo, the road was far away, even the death of his brother was temporarily put down by him, running day and night, hurried towards Youzhou, along the way, everywhere were laborers who were working frantically, these laborers who were forcibly brought to Jizhou from the Liaodong Peninsula lived a life worse than death under the management of Wen Ren's attack.
In just three months, there have been dozens of riots, Jizhou Assassin Shi quietly reported to the Son of Heaven, the Son of Heaven only learned about the matter here, Wen Ren Attack planned well, but in this matter, it was done a little inappropriate, the Son of Heaven hurriedly ordered Dong Zhuo to return to Jizhou from Youzhou, take over the work of Wen Ren Raid, and make Wen Ren Raid return to Luoyang, Wen Ren Raid reluctantly left, Dong Zhuo came to Jizhou happily.
And even happier than Dong Zhuo is these laborers, Dong Zhuo abolished the extremely brutal system of hearing the attack, two meals a day, within a day, allowed to rest for five hours, such a moderate policy, so that the laborers who had just experienced the most brutal rule wept with joy, and the riot and other events disappeared without a trace, Dong Zhuo began the construction of the canal with peace of mind.
He doesn't understand these things, but he can use people, he didn't change the slightest bit when he heard that people attacked the team left behind, everything was just going on in an orderly manner, Zhang Jiao arrived in Jizhou, heard that Dong Zhuo was here, and hurriedly went to look for it, and when he arrived at Jizhou Thorn Mansion, he learned that there were some problems with the canal project in Qingzhou, because this project was a summary of the two states, and Dong Zhuo generally patrolled back and forth in these two states.
Zhang Jiao, who couldn't wait, rushed to Qingzhou again.
Nine years in Jianning have been spent in this way.
In the tenth year of Jianning, the tenth year of the reign of the emperor of the Han Dynasty, the changes that took place in the Han Dynasty were earth-shaking, and the things in the court were wrong, and I don't know how many ministers of the three princes had been replaced, but in the successive reforms and good governance of these ministers, the number of cultivated land in the Han Dynasty had reached the highest point in the history of the entire Han Dynasty, and under the vigorous reclamation of Mintun, the cultivated land of the Han Dynasty continued to increase.
Up to now, the officials in various places have not even been able to complete the statistics, Yanzhou, Yuzhou and other places are fine, but in Yangzhou, Hezhou and other vast states, the cultivated land is increasing every day, the mountains and forests are constantly expanding, and the number of household registrations, in a large number of migrations, and the encouragement policy of the Son of Heaven, once again explosively increased, Luoyang, Yecheng, Chang'an and other counties have a population of more than 100,000.
Even Yangzhou is such a barbarian land, now there are millions of people, such a huge number of household registration, is also breaking through the historical peak, the Han courtiers and the people witnessed Zhongxing, saw the grain in the granary piled up into a mountain, the canal channel continued to appear, Youzhou, Liangzhou, after several years of war, also calmed down, showing a prosperous scene.
The establishment of several galloping roads has rapidly led to the development of these areas, and the handicraft industry has also ushered in a huge revitalization, the products of the Han Dynasty have been purchased by the merchants and sold to the outside of the Saiwai, and the influence of the Han Dynasty has followed the footsteps of these products and merchants, and has continued to spread to the outside, and the exotic merchants who come and go are concentrated outside Guzang County, witnessing the prosperity and strength of the Han Dynasty!
All of them are inseparable from the Holy Son of Heaven, after the great xing, it is the unparalleled prestige of the Son of Heaven, among the hundred officials, no one dares to disobey the orders of the Son of Heaven, and among the people, the people who have gone through the official school, the admiration for the Son of Heaven is needless to mention, the first batch of students who came out of the official school, the students who learned from the golden scales, looked at the Son of Heaven with fanatical eyes.
Among the generals, a group of people headed by Zhang Wen also began to constantly play the Son of Heaven, asking for the conquest of the thieves around the unsubordinate, what is the non-subordinate, that is, the country that does not pay tribute to the Han Dynasty, when the country is removed, what does the Son of Heaven think, everyone does not know, the people are resolutely opposed, Wang Fu and Wen Ren Attack also expressed their opposition, Wen Ren Attack believes that the war will cost a lot of money.
To start a war for the sake of a mere fame is detrimental to the interests of the Han Dynasty, but Wang Fu believes that the Han Dynasty is still in the process of developing and rejuvenating, and it is not allowed to conduct more military affairs and damage the national capital.
Ten years of Jianning, March
The waves on the sea continued to beat the hull, the big ship was constantly shaking under the beating of the waves, the water splashed, Zhang Jiao stood on the bow of the boat, looking into the distance, he looked back, there were only three big ships left, when they set off from Qingzhou, but eleven big ships, this departure, it was almost two months, in these two months, they have lost most of the ships.
After Zhang Jiao handed over the letter of the Son of Heaven to Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo did not hesitate to pull out the big boat from Qingzhou, and assigned a large number of attendants and soldiers, of course, these are the orders of the Son of Heaven, Dong Zhuo just looked at the letter of the Son of Heaven and complied.
Zhang Jiao excitedly sailed the boat, swearing to find Penglai Xiandao, and he did not have any sailing experience, but he hurt these attendants who followed him, under his wise command, nearly a thousand attendants, at present there are less than 500 people left, fortunately, among the remaining people, many of them are fishermen from Qingzhou, who know a little about navigation, so that they are not completely annihilated.
"Zhang Jun" walked up to Zhang Jiao's side and said in a low voice.
Zhang Jiao turned his head, looked at him with a smile, and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
"We don't have anything to eat, Zhang Jun should go back," the man said with a sad face, Zhang Jiao was stunned for a moment, and asked rhetorically: "Didn't we bring enough food?" How could it be gone? ”
"Zhang Jun, the ship sank before, and a lot of grain and grass have sunk with the ship"
"Alas" Zhang Jiao sighed helplessly, and he didn't know what to do in his heart, Shi Jun obviously told himself that he would be able to find Penglai Immortal Island all the way to the southeast, and he set off from Qingzhou and sailed all the way to the southeast for so long, why didn't he see any islands? If you go back like this, what face will you have to see Your Majesty?
Zhang Jiao turned his head and looked at the exhausted and resentful entourage, there was no food and grass, even if he ordered to continue sailing, they would not agree, Zhang Jiao nodded and said, "Then go back"
As he spoke, he raised his head and looked into the distance.
"Huh? What is that?? ”
There seemed to be a black spot in the distance, and Zhang Jiao's eyes widened, and he shouted to the sailors on the mast, "Due south, but an island!? When the sailor, who was originally a little depressed, heard this, he hurriedly looked into the distance, he stared for a moment, clapped his hands violently and shouted: "Island! It is the island!! ”
Hearing his shout, many sailors hurriedly rushed over and looked at him from afar.
"Hahaha Penglai Island!! Shi Junguo doesn't deceive me!! Zhang Jiao exclaimed excitedly. 11
