Chapter 1200: It's time to start a republic
Great Song Dynasty, Kaifeng Mansion.
It's getting dark!
When Wu Haowen came out of the Taichang Temple Office, it was already past the unitary time.
According to the time calculation of the afterlife, it is more than six o'clock in the evening and almost seven o'clock in the evening. It was already the fourth month of Mengxia, and the daylight hours had been extended, so by this time, it was only dark.
However, the sky above Kaifeng Mansion was shrouded in a haze at some point.
It's probably going to rain again, right?
Wu Haowen sighed, turned on his horse, and headed towards his mansion on the bank of the Jinshui River.
Out of Taichang Temple, looking around, it is full of prosperity.
Seventy-two main shops are brightly lit, and thousands of foot shops are doing thriving business.
On the Jinshui River, there are painting boats passing through from time to time, and there are bursts of silk and bamboo singing and dancing sounds from the boat, although it is a beautiful sound, but it also makes people feel relaxed.
Because there were too many pedestrians on the street, Wu Haowen simply got off his horse and walked on the extremely prosperous street.
Thanks to Cai Jing's money-leading reform, the market in Kaifeng Mansion can now be said to be prosperous to the extent of fire. Kaifeng City is full of buildings under construction and properties for sale.
Because the wealthy families in Hedong and Hebei kept entering Kaifeng Mansion in order to avoid the scourge of war. The population of Kaifeng Mansion has swelled again, and the number of households within the city walls alone has exceeded 200,000! Combined with the unsettled residents and floating population, the actual population living in this large city is probably no less than 1.5 million.
At the same time as the population increased, the Taifu Temple Office opened an interest-free loan purchase business for officials in Beijing (limited to one time per official). All officials in Beijing only need to make a down payment of one to two percent, and they can borrow the remaining ninety percent of the purchase price from the mortgage of the real estate. It can also be repaid in installments or in one lump sum at maturity.
In this way, officials in Beijing do not always have to rent a house to live, even if they are just a high school student, they can buy their own real estate through mortgages.
These huge numbers of homeless officials suddenly have the ability to buy real estate. Unless they are qualified to live in a good official house, officials in Beijing will have to rent a house on their own. Due to the large influx of wealthy households from Hebei and Hedong into Kaifeng Mansion in recent years, the rent of Kaifeng Mansion has been rising.
To rent a house, it is better to borrow an interest-free loan to buy a house!
Moreover, after the success of the Qian Yin reform, Cai Jing put forward a proposal to increase the number of officials, and it was approved by Zhao Ji. As soon as the officials' salaries rise, the motivation to buy houses will be greater.
Therefore, the real estate in Kaifeng Mansion has been blooming in the past two years!
Driven by the booming supply and demand of the real estate market and the rising prices. Industries related to real estate, such as camps, plaster, masonry, wood, furniture, etc., are all thriving.
Needless to say, if there are statistics on the GDP of Kaifeng Prefecture, it will definitely not rise like words. As for the tax revenue, it is thanks to the blessing of real estate, and it has doubled in a very short period of time, and Zhenghe has exceeded 1.2 million yuan in two years!
This Kaifeng Mansion is really an inch of land!
But for some reason, in Kaifeng Mansion, where every inch of land is valuable, Wu Haowen has an uneasy feeling of dreaming of the end of the world at this time.
He heard rather terrible news today when he was on duty at Taichang Temple.
Yelu Yanxi, who was defeated in Liaodong, died of illness in Datong Mansion in Xijing of Liao State on the third day of the first month of March, and ordered the emperor's eldest son, Yelu Ao Luhu, the king of Jin, to ascend the throne, and ordered Ao Luwei's mother Concubine Wen to deal with military and state affairs with the power of the queen mother.
The Liao State has entered the era of the decline of the main and young countries! Yelu Yanxi couldn't defeat the republican army of Wuhaogu when he was there, and now he is replaced by orphans and widows, what hope does the country have?
Around the time of Yelu Yanxi's death, the Jurchens and Bohai people, who were originally subject to the Great Liao, also established their own countries one after another. The country of the Jurchens was called Jin, and the country of the Bohai people was called Yuan. And the kings of both countries have been called emperors!
The original juxtaposition of the two emperors of the north and the south has now been broken. Three emperors appeared in the north!
And the southern Han side ...... Wu Haowen's elder brother Wu Haogu, it's almost time to be the emperor of Ditu, right?
Once Wu Haogu became emperor, will the chaos in the north affect the Southern Dynasties?
And with his own family, can he still live in this prosperous and dreamlike Kaifeng Mansion?
As soon as he thought of this, Wu Haowen had a sense of oppression that a catastrophe was imminent! But there is nothing he can do, although he is now too often Shaoqing, but this is just an idle errand, and he can't control the situation at all. Besides, his identity is really embarrassing, he is said to be an official of the Great Song Dynasty, but he is a hostage of Youzhou.
Even if he had the heart to leave, there was no way out!
Thinking of this, Wu Haowen stopped by the Jinshui River, looked at the Tianbo Gate not far away, and sighed faintly.
……
When I got home, it was late, but there were visitors in the house.
Drinking tea in the inner hall accompanied by Wu Chengzhi were Wu Haowen's teacher Hou Zhongliang and Hu Anguo, who also belonged to the Luo School.
Hu Anguo is a Jinshi of Shaosheng for four years, the first and third places, and the first class of martial arts is one session in the morning. The official fortune is much inferior to Wu Haowen, and it was only in the first year of Zhenghe that the Chengdu government was sentenced. In the second year of Zhenghe, he met the death of his mother and father one after another, and when he was disheartened, he retired from illness and retired to seclusion on Jiangnan East Road, concentrating on his studies.
It's only three years of political peace now, and Hu Anguo should be in Jiangnan to keep filial piety for his parents, why did he come all the way to Kaifeng Mansion?
"Good text," after his son had saluted, Wu Chengzhi smiled and opened his mouth, "Mr. Shisheng and Mr. Qingshan have both received invitations from the eldest brother. ”
"What?" Wu Haowen was stunned, "What does he want to do?" ”
Nearly forty years old, Hu Anguo, who gave birth to a long donkey face, took over the topic, frowned and said: "He wants to establish a country in the north!"
"Founding ......" Wu Haowen was frightened.
This is a rebellion!
Rebellion is to kill the head! Wu Haogu, a thief, can't be killed, because the army of the imperial court will definitely not be able to defeat the republican army. But now that his father and son are being detained in Kaifeng Mansion as a hostage, when will it not be a matter of the will of the official family to ask for beheading?
"Good article." Wu Chengzhi comforted his son and said, "Big brother doesn't want to be an emperor, he wants to establish a republic without an emperor." So it can't be considered a rebellion. ”
It really can't be considered a rebellion...... In fact, even if Wu Haogu ascended the throne as emperor in Tianjin, Zhao Ji would not necessarily buckle the hat of the thief.
Because if Wu Haogu is characterized as a thief, then the imperial court must send troops to exterminate it.
But Youzhou is full of republican mobs! Joy when you hear the war!
And they had just beaten up the millions of heavenly soldiers in Daliao...... Perhaps Yelu Yanxi was wounded by the republican mob and fled back to Datong Mansion in Xijing before he died of his injuries.
The millions of heavenly soldiers in Da Liao have pounced, who on the side of the Great Song Dynasty dares to touch the tiger butt in Youzhou?
The republican mob will burn high incense if they don't fight!
"A republic without an emperor?"
Wu Haowen frowned when he heard this, this thing seems to be worse than being called the emperor, right?
If you are the emperor, as long as Wu Haogu does not force Zhao Ji to be anxious, the two dynasties of the north and south are mixed, and the Great Song Dynasty is afraid that he will not be able to ask for it.
But he doesn't claim to be the emperor, and he wants to make trouble in the Laoshzi Republic, what is this picture?
"Teacher, Brother Qingshan," Wu Haowen looked at his teacher Hou Zhongliang and fellow senior brother Hu Anguo, "My eldest brother wants to establish a country, why do you want to invite the two of you to go north?" Do you want to ask you to be officials? ”
Hu Anguo shook his head and said, "He wants to ask us to be officials, so we won't go." He asked us to discuss the republican system...... According to him, today's imperial system began in the Qin Dynasty, and after more than 1,300 years, it has long been full of drawbacks and is no longer suitable for today's world. Therefore, although he opened thousands of miles of territory, he still did not usurp the title and did not open the emperor's business, but created the method of recommendation, which is more than the world for the public, which is the will of the superior three generations. ”
"What ...... said" Wu Haowen shook his head again and again, "The Great Song Dynasty is still the family and the country, and he is a mess of ministers and thieves, and he actually said what is the will of three generations!" I'm not afraid of the world's jokes. ”
Hou Zhongliang said: "Whether it is a chaotic minister and a thief, or the will of three generations, it is too early to draw conclusions." Both Weishi and Qingshan want to go and see, and I want to invite you to come along. ”
Listening to the teacher's words, Wu Haowen couldn't cry or laugh a little, he is now a hostage! Can you get out of Kaifeng Mansion?
"I'm afraid I can't go, right?" Wu Haowen shook his head.
"Why can't you go?" Hou Zhongliang said, "Yandi's establishment of the republic is a big deal!" It is not only a major event in Yandi, but also a master in the whole world! How can you not be involved in this? You can participate on behalf of the Imperial Court. ”
Hu Anguo also said: "If Wu Chongdao wants to open the emperor's territory, then there is no other day, and the court will not allow him, but if he doesn't build the emperor's name now, he may not be able to coexist with the court!" ”
What a nerd! Wu Haowen thought to himself, the court can't beat that chaotic minister and thief, if he doesn't make do with it, what else can he do? Sending yourself to death?
Hou Zhongliang saw that his student was entangled, and said with a smile: "Wangdao, as a teacher, I only ask if you want to go." If you want to go, the teacher has his own way to get the official family and Cai Xianggong to allow you to go. ”
"This ...... Can you really go? ”
Hou Zhongliang smiled, "As a teacher, he is also a guest of the Yuqing Daode Palace now, and he can still speak on the official side."
And...... This incident has a lot to do with the official family! If Youzhou's path to creating a republic goes awry, it will be really chaotic. The world is in turmoil, not a chaotic country! ”
Family and country are often said together, but they are not exactly the same thing.
The family and the state are the ruling power of one dynasty and one generation. The world refers to the country of China!
Wu Haogu created a republic in Yandi grass, which can indeed be compared with Qin Shi Huang's sweep of Liuhe and the establishment of the emperor.
Although the Qin Dynasty was short-lived, the centralized monarchy it created has been passed down to the current Great Song Dynasty.
And Wu Haogu is now going to break the centralized monarchy system and create a republican state where the world is for the public!
This change will never be smaller than the changes brought to China by Qin's unification of the Six Kingdoms. After Qin unified the six countries and created the imperial industry, it was not until the Han Gaozu Ping Qin destroyed Chu and unified the world that the imperial system was truly established.
Now that the republic is just beginning to rise, can the world not be in chaos? Can the Great Song Dynasty, who lived in the Southern Dynasty, turn a blind eye?
