Chapter 561: The Gap (Second Update)
When Yinggao really stepped into the capital of the former Peacock Dynasty, he felt how luxurious the life of the Relic Yijia, who had been submissive in front of him before, and even now in order to be able to marry one more woman from Daqin, when he was the monarch of the Peacock Dynasty, was so luxurious.
If this city is in terms of area, it is much larger than Xianyang City, but Yinggao walked in it and found that the buildings in it were arranged very loosely.
In other words, the population density here is very small, much smaller than Xianyang City, obviously all the people who lived here before were the high-ranking castes of the Mauryan Empire, and the people of the low-ranking castes will definitely not be able to enter this most sacred city in the Mauryan Empire except for providing various services to the high-ranking castes here.
But now, these high-gate compounds in the city have basically changed owners, and after arranging Lu Jia, Meng Tian and other officials here, according to the voluntary household registration order, every person from the Peacock Dynasty who registered as the people of Hua's City has been allocated at least one house, unlike before, they can only serve others in such a house, and now, they are the owners of this house, even if there is only one, but such spaciousness and luxury are something they didn't dare to imagine before.
By the time Yinggao came over, the renovation of the mansion here had not yet been completed, so Yinggao still had a very big feeling about the luxury before this royal city.
Lu Jia and Meng Tian accompanied Yinggao and others all the way to the palace of the Mauryan Dynasty.
"This is the court of the monarchs and officials of the Mauryan Empire before?" Yinggao looked around at the golden lobby and couldn't help frowning and asked.
Daqin's objects, all of them are in a simple and natural style, Yinggao was also from a history study in his previous life, and he looked very comfortable, but when he arrived in this Peacock Dynasty, people's styles suddenly became luxurious, and this time was a little unacceptable to Yinggao.
"Yes, I know that the king will definitely go out here for a tour, so this palace has not made any changes except for the discussion in a large hall, and the king and his wife can just rest here."
Originally, Yinggao didn't really want to pick up relics and lose the rest of the palace to use, but he couldn't let Lu Jia and Meng Tian build him again, so he could only nod and agree to this matter.
After sitting in this hall, Yinggao immediately became a hundred thousand whys, although Meng Tian and Lu Jia also told Yinggao almost what happened here through letters, but what was said in the letter was obviously not detailed, and now that they finally met, Yinggao almost asked everything about the Peacock Dynasty again.
When he asked everything he wanted to know, he found that Lu Jia, Meng Tian and the others, who had been answering his questions, had a slight sweat on their foreheads, and then looked at the sky outside that was already faintly dark, Yinggao knew that it was almost time to do it.
Like Fusu, Lu Jia and Meng Tian also prepared a very sumptuous banquet in this hall in order to welcome Yinggao, and at the banquet, Yinggao directly handed over the more than 20 young officials he brought from the Western Regions to Lu Jia.
This is the same as Yinggao's imagination, so that Lu Jia is very grateful, with the occupation of the city of the Peacock Dynasty by Daqin, the officials assigned to him by Yinggao before are almost usable, and after they are used up, Lu Jia is facing the dilemma that even if he occupies the city, there is no one in charge, and now Yinggao has brought him more than 20 people who can be used, which basically solves the problem that he is unavailable, and this time Lu Jia was excited and drank several glasses of wine in a row, and his little face was red and fluttering.
After the night banquet, Yinggao took Tian Yan and, of course, a team of guards in dark clothes behind Tian Yan to a very high platform in this palace.
Here, turning around, you can almost see all the scenery of Fahrenheit City, standing here, Yinggao really has a feeling of looking down on all beings, and the world is under my control, he suddenly knew why the relics lose Jia is so heartless, anyone who has nothing to do with this station, it is all full of confidence, and he would never have thought that one day someone would come to attack his city.
"Your Majesty, this palace of the Peacock Dynasty is much more luxurious than my palace in Great Qin, if you let it stand here, will it cover up the light of Great Qin?"
Tian Yan was also shocked by the incomparable scenery on this high platform for a long time, but after coming back to her senses, she realized that it seemed that there should not be such a luxurious palace on the territory of the Peacock Dynasty under the leadership of Great Qin, and the existence of such a palace could already be regarded as comparing the Xianyang Palace of Great Qin, which made those officials of Great Qin look at it, it was obviously not the case.
"Madame doesn't know, this palace of the Mauryan Dynasty is extravagant, and the relics are in this palace to make all the people on the territory of the Mauryan Dynasty miserable, and it is also in vain, I don't know how much manpower and financial resources were spent on the Mauryan Dynasty when this palace was built, if I just demolish it, wouldn't it be too much? It doesn't matter, this palace is left here, it is considered a palace of my Great Qin Imperial Family, it is also good, if I come back in the future, it can be regarded as a change of feeling, right? ”
Tian Yan didn't notice that Yinggao's eyes were a little bit obscene when she said the last sentence, she suddenly found that Yinggao was not as enthusiastic as before since he attacked the Peacock Dynasty, but a little more deep, this bit of profundity, let her feel Yinggao's growth, she knew that beating down a Peacock Dynasty would definitely not be the end of Yinggao.
"I heard that there is a dynasty named Seleuc around the Mauryan Dynasty, and he once took advantage of the fact that the men and horses of the Great Qin and the Xiongnu did not reach the Peacock Dynasty to carve up some of the cities of the Peacock Dynasty, but now although General Meng Tian has beaten back to his own dynasty, does the king want to not pursue it?"
"Naturally, it's not that I won't pursue it, but this is not the time to investigate, if we continue to expand along the periphery of the Peacock Dynasty, it won't take a few months, and the big and small dynasties around it will fall into the hands of my Great Qin, but those small dynasties are not of much use to my Great Qin, and since there is a large-scale dynasty of the Peacock Dynasty in this world, it is difficult to guarantee that there will not be a dynasty larger than the Peacock Dynasty, and the foundation of our Great Qin will be unstable at that time, Once you meet a real opponent, you will fall apart after a defeat, and if it really comes to that time, not only will the Mauryan Dynasty not be able to keep it, but the Western Regions and Daqin will be threatened a lot. ”
Yinggao looked into the distance in front of him and explained to Tian Yan faintly.
He knew that Tian Yannai was a person who was very interested in war, since Yinggao sent people to attack the Peacock Dynasty, almost every war report from the Peacock Dynasty Tian Yan would read it, and later, not only the war report, but also some matters after occupying the Peacock Dynasty, she would also read it after obtaining Yinggao's consent, so she would know that Seleuc had attacked many cities in the Peacock Dynasty.
"I don't know if one day, I can also lead a team of soldiers under my command to attack the city for my Great Qin......"
Tian Yan stood on this high platform, looking at the position of the Northwest Seleucid Dynasty, and slowly said these words that she had been holding back in her heart for a long time, she was not saying it to Yinggao, but more to herself, she knew that Yinggao was an enlightened monarch, but also a person with enlightened thinking, if Yinggao felt that she could, she would definitely let her try.
"I thought there would be a day, but not now."
Before, whenever Tian Yan said such a thing, Yinggao would not respond to her, but today he said such a sentence for the first time, which really made Tian Yan excited for a long time.
After saying this, Yinggao put his arm around Tian Yan's shoulders, stepped down from the high platform step by step, and walked to the most luxurious bedroom inside.
In the early morning of the next day, Ying Gao found Lu Jia and Meng Tian, claiming that he wanted to take a good walk in this Hua City to see what kind of life the people in this city were living, which of course Meng Tian and Lu Jia had already thought of, and at the same time, Ying Gao asked Meng Tian's guards to send a letter, which made Meng Tian and Lu Jia a little strange.
This letter was addressed to Xiang Yu, and Ying Gao didn't say what it was, but just watched the person who sent the letter leave, and then went to see the people in Hua's City by himself.
The location of Xiang Yu's chosen capital city in the Peacock Dynasty was actually not far from Hua City, and this letter arrived in Xiang Yu's hands within two days under the gallop all the way.
Xiang Yu took the letter, and after reading it, a strange expression appeared on his face.
"The emperor of Great Qin actually sent an invitation as soon as he arrived in Hua City, I don't know what his purpose was for inviting me to go."
In this letter, Ying Gao made it clear that he wanted to invite Xiang Yu to Hua's City, and his purpose was to discuss with Xiang Yu what the alliance between Great Qin and the Xiongnu would do next.
What do you have to do next, Xiang Yu sounds quite fresh, in fact, during his time in the Peacock Dynasty, although his life is much better than before, his worries are increasing day by day.
The Huns have been accustomed to drinking wine and eating meat on the grassland, and once they arrived in this city, they have almost been enjoying themselves, at the beginning Xiang Yu thought that this was just a new place like the Peacock Dynasty, and everyone was a little excited.
But it had been several months, and the officials and armies of Great Qin were in the cities of the occupiers one after another, while the Huns were all concentrated in a few larger cities, and there was almost no management of these cities and the people in them.
How to let the Huns govern the city like the Great Qin people has become the top priority that needs to be solved in Xiang Yu's heart. But he has tried several methods, but so far they have had little effect.
It can be said that he received Yinggao's letter at this time, and to some extent Xiang Yu was slightly relieved, although he didn't know what Yinggao wanted to discuss with him, but once they could find something to do for those Huns who had been idle for a long time, they could regain their status as Hun iron horsemen, instead of drinking and having fun in the city all day.
"Shan Yu, the Emperor of Great Qin didn't suspect that his younger brother Hu Hai was in the territory controlled by my Xiongnu, so he set up a banquet for Shan Yu to go, in case he didn't agree with him at that time......"
Obviously, Long and their worries are not unreasonable, Ying Gao did not tell Xiang Yu about this matter before he came, but invited Xiang Yu after he arrived, once he found Xiang Yu because he heard that Hu Hai might flee to the territory of the Xiongnu, then his purpose was very suspicious.
When Lu Jia and Meng Tian sent people to the Xiongnu to inquire if there was a team of people passing by, Xiang Yu and they didn't think much about it, but after a while, the soldiers of Daqin began to search all the way from the seaside, all of them were inquiring about Hu Hai and Zhao Cheng, and Xiang Yu's scouts naturally also learned about this fanfare, and informed Xiang Yu of this matter.
At this moment, Xiang Yu linked Hu Hai with the previous team of people who didn't know whether they existed or not, thinking that the Great Qin was deceiving him, although in fact, even Meng Tian and Lu Jia didn't associate Hu Hai with that team of people.
"It doesn't matter, now Daqin's power in this Peacock Dynasty is not very strong, and there are Seleuc and other dynasties watching from the side, if there is a dispute with my Huns, it can only be a lose-lose ending, since the emperor of Daqin has personally arrived in the Peacock Dynasty, I don't think this situation will happen, this Hua's City, this Shan Yu really has to take a look."
When Xiang Yu arrived at Fahrenheit City, he felt that Fahrenheit City would still be the original Fahrenheit City, and there was no difference from when they let a few of them attack it, but when he entered the city and saw the warm smiles on the faces of many people of the Peacock Dynasty, Xiang Yu was a little silent at that time.
The gap between the Xiongnu and Daqin is undoubtedly evident at this moment, and Xiang Yu doesn't know how to make up for such a gap, for Xiang Yu, this is very embarrassing.
