Chapter 640: Taiping World
Under the whole world, it is not the king's land; On the shore of the land, it is not the king's minister.
Liu Yong has a thorough understanding of this sentence.
The king's decree will change the day and the day, which is really true.
Liu Yong's royal decree to move the capital was issued, which immediately made the Chu State busy, and the Yangtze River waterway truly presented his busy image.
Every day, warships and passenger ships traveled between Xiangyang and Moling, gradually shifting the center of gravity of the Chu State to Moling, and the prosperity of Moling became increasingly apparent.
However, Liu Yong is still too optimistic, and the actual operation and what kind of affairs are countless times more complicated than he imagined.
From the beginning of Liu Yong's royal decree, Moling immediately began to expand Moling again, first of all, re-planning, and the construction of the palace was the first important event. The second is the city wall, on the basis of the original, expanded outward again by 50 miles, and the area of the royal city was directly expanded more than ten times more than the original small county town of Moling.
It took three years to finally present the new royal city.
"King, the sixteenth hall of the palace is about to be completed, you can move in one day!"
Above the main hall, Prime Minister Zhuge Liang respectfully reported.
Liu Yong's eyes lit up, it's finally going to be completed, I've been waiting for three whole years.
At the same time as Liu Yong sighed, the court and the civil and military also congratulated: "Congratulations to the king, congratulations to the king!" ”
The royal city, of course, is not only the thirteen halls, this is only the facilities of the major important functional departments in the palace, and at the same time there are dozens of palaces, gardens, pavilions and pavilions in the harem, all of them, and the atmosphere is extremely majestic.
This is also the result of Liu Yong smashing almost half of his income in the past three years.
In addition to the first time, the city wall after the expansion is also one of the key projects, although it is not as high as five zhang like the Xiangyang city wall, but it has also reached four zhang, two zhang and two zhang thick, which is definitely a huge project.
In the past three years, in addition to Liu Yong sending Lu Xun to conquer Yizhou, Huang Zhong finally conquered Jiaozhou together with the newly built navy led by Lu Meng, and captured the Shixie brothers, basically there were no other major wars, as for the barbarians in various places, they were also under Liu Yong's dividing policy, becoming weaker and weaker, and gradually unable to fight.
Of course, Liu Yong can not only do these, all over the righteousness, imperial examinations, are promoted, has been popularized, the construction of the road is to tell the development, three years, Jingzhou, Yizhou, Jiangdong, the Central Plains, almost every city under Liu Yong's command is constantly building, has formed a huge transportation network, enough to compare with the highway of later generations, with it, the message is also more rapid, before it took three days to deliver the message, now it only takes two days enough, if the army marches, in addition to the river, The speed of the land was enough to intimidate the other princes, and Cao Cao in the north was also embarrassed.
There has been no war for three years, and the state of Chu has shown an unprecedented image of prosperity, otherwise, Liu Yong will not be able to support such a huge construction loss, which is also thanks to Liu Yong's support for business, the two wealthy businessmen of Chu State, the Mi family and the Zhen family, have completely become the existence of everyone's admiration, and no one calls the businessman a lowly statement.
"How's the situation in the North?" Liu Yong asked in a deep voice.
Fa Zheng said: "Report to the king, Cao Cao in the north is now seriously ill in bed, and he can hardly be a director, and all kinds of affairs have been gradually handed over to the second son Cao Pi to deal with, and the theory of succession is even more obvious." Ma Teng and Han Sui have been fighting openly and secretly since Cao Cao captured the state three years ago, and now, it has almost reached the point where water and fire are incompatible. ”
"Okay, that's the best, keep exploring!" Liu Yong is very satisfied, it seems that he listened to the advice of everyone that day to stop the war is still good, at least in the past three years, the population under his command has increased by nearly thirty percent, the grain has also been harvested, and the children's school enrollment rate has reached almost 60 percent, which can be called the pioneering work of the first five ancients, therefore, as the people learn, other walks of life are also more developed, Liu Yonggan is sure that in another five years, almost all walks of life in Chu will be called prosperous.
Since this is the case, then Liu Yong is not in a hurry to unify the great cause, as long as his strength is strong enough, it is not an extremely simple matter to unify the north of Hebei and Xiliang.
However, judging from the current situation, it seems that that day is not far away, Liu Yong is waiting, waiting for an opportunity! I believe that it will come soon, in as little as three years, as long as five or six years, and there will be changes in the world.
Now, he can continue to develop with peace of mind.
Perhaps, after another three and a half years, with the strength of the Chu State, he can surrender the soldiers without a fight and directly dominate the world, which is also Liu Yong's macro source.
"As for the more ambitious territory?" Liu Yong set his eyes on the skyline far away.
"Besides, I don't have the idea that I am arrogant enough to occupy all the earth, after all, many conditions cannot be met, and the rest is a matter for future generations!"
Thinking of future generations, Liu Yong suddenly thought of the previous discussion with Zhuge Liang and others about the transformation of Zhongshan.
"Lan Hong, how has the recent renovation of Zhongshan been?"
As soon as Liu Yong's words fell, a little yellow door with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes immediately came up and replied with a smile: "King, the Taoist temple and temple over there in Zhongshan have been completed, and it will be completely completed in about half a year. ”
"Folding?" Liu Yong glanced at this little yellow door that had been following him with some surprise.
Pang Tong suggested that another martial arts hall should be built under Zhongshan Mountain, which can be used as another backhand to protect the royal city, and it can also balance the Taoist temples and temples on the mountain, and the tripartite balance is better!
Liu Yong was silent for a long time, his eyes flashed, and he nodded heavily, Pang Tong's suggestion was extremely good. In the end, it's a great talent, and I still can't pay attention to these details.
The next day, at the court meeting, Liu Yong announced in public the construction of temples and Taoist temples on Zhongshan, and at the same time began to recruit high-ranking people and monks from all over the world, and named Zhongshan Temple and Youtianguan.
However, he did not directly explain the matter of the martial arts hall. However, on the same day, more than ten important figures such as Zhuge Liang, Fa Zheng, Pang Tong, Sima Zhi, and Huo Jun were convened to discuss together, and after half a month, at the foot of Zhongshan Mountain, began to build a large number of buildings, and soon someone spread that a martial arts hall would be built here, as for who will be the director of this martial arts hall in the future, there is no news.
However, in the past few days, Jin Tianwei, who was already in and out frequently, seemed to be busier.
However, it didn't take long for Zhao Yun to bow respectfully to an old man with silver hair and a horse, who was Zhao Yun's legendary master Tong Yuan.
