Chapter 329: Hindrance to the Southward Migration
Leaving Xu Bu Chiyi to garrison Chang'an, Liu Yuan, under the escort of the guards, embarked on a journey north to Meiji. It has been a year and a half since he took Chang'an, and he has worked hard to manage it, and Liu Xia's rule over Guanzhong has stabilized, and Hu Min's move south has been put on the agenda.
The matter of moving the capital, Lan Zhi's side can't control it, and he has to personally promote such a major event. In Hetao, in Monan, there were many nobles who were resistant to moving south, although they did not dare to oppose it blatantly, but when Lanzhi was mobilizing and preparing, they delayed it with all things.
These people,All of them are people whose interests have been damaged in the tide of Liu Yuan's reform,With the deepening of sinicization,Follow Liu Yuan's pace,Naturally, there are many benefits。
Such as the Lan family, the Xu Bu family, the Wu family, Helan, Qiu Lin, Fugu, etc., these are the top noble families of Hu Xia today. They have gradually evolved from the grassland tribe clan to the wealthy family of the Han Dynasty, which is also what Liu Yuan is happy to see.
For example, Wan Qianjian, who was born as a slave, has now become the founder of the new Wan Qi clan, while the Wan Qi clan, which was not small among the Xiongnu before, is dying out in the wave of reform that Liu Yuan is advancing vigorously.
Those who can follow Liu Yuan's footsteps are only a few after all, and more are opposed, resistant, and adaptable. Under such a general trend, the original Xiongnu system has long been shattered to the fullest, and the originally active Xiongnu tribes and clans have really died out a lot. For Liu Yuan, these people who stick to the "Xiongnu tradition" should be eliminated by history and do not deserve sympathy.
Liu Yuan's sinicization process is actually a process of accumulation of internal contradictions in Hu Xia. In the early days, in the face of Liu Yuan's obstinate obstinacy, determined to reform, those who refused to accept it from top to bottom dared to directly raise troops to resist.
In the early stage of Liu Yuan's reign over the Xiongnu, there was no rebellion and turmoil at the age of a year, and they were all strongly suppressed. The bones are hard, and after the most fierce resistance was wiped out by the Liu Yuan clan, the rest were unwilling, and they didn't dare to harden it. only dare to be in the unstoppable trend of sinicization,Secretly cling to their "tradition",Firm their "faith"。
For this group of people, although Liu Yuan suppressed them, he did not use radical measures, after all, in the early internal friction, the overall national strength declined. At that time, there was Xianbei in the north to conquer, and Liu Yuan exhausted his national strength to conquer the Xianbei tribes, and then established the country and called the king system. Immediately after the drastic change in the situation in the Han Dynasty, attention was focused on the south again, and the suppression of those "conservatives" was relaxed.
With the past few years, Liu Yuan's southern expedition mobilized a large number of troops to enter the Han border in the south, and in the north, the forces of his generation actually looked like they were rising. Although he is in the south, Liu Yuan never dares to relax on the affairs of the north, after all, it is his foundation, if he can't stay in Dahan, Liu Yuan still has plans to retreat north.
The internal guards were sent to closely monitor the north, but after all, they couldn't reach it, and Liu Yuan couldn't be distracted. After such a long time, the "diehards" have been rampant and connected with each other, and Liu Yuan's proposal to move south has once again caused a backlash from his generation.
All the way through Shangjun into the West River, north to Meiji, it took more than ten days, has been spring. Thinking about Meiji all the way, Liu Yuan was not in a very good mood.
After more than two years of marching south, and then returning to the royal capital, Liu Yuan sighed in his heart. Meiji is still the Xiongcheng that stands in the Hetao, and it is becoming more and more prosperous and lively, and Wang Rou's governance is good.
A large-scale welcoming ceremony announced to the royal capital that your king is back! The capture of the old capital of the Han Dynasty and the return of the people have improved the morale of the people at the top and bottom. This is the longest time that Liu Yuan has left Meiji, and the people from top to bottom are very "enthusiastic", and it turns out that Liu Yuan's influence on Meiji is still the same.
Entering the palace room, the harem beauties who have been thinking about it for a long time have been looking forward to it, but the first to fall into Liu Yuan's arms is the eldest princess Liu Shu.
"Father!" The sweet call sounded in his ears, crisp in his heart, and Liu Yuan's expression showed some pity.
Picked up Liu Shu, I haven't seen her for two years, the little girl has grown a lot taller, and her appearance is more and more exquisite, and there is the charm of her mother Bian between her eyebrows.
"Shu'er has grown up and is heavy, and she can't hold it anymore!" Liu Yuan laughed.
The little girl naturally did not comply, and showed a coquettish look on her face, and writhed a few times in Liu Yuan's arms. After so long, Liu Shu was still so attached to Liu Yuan, put his arms around Liu Yuan's neck, hung on Liu Yuan's body, sniffed the smell of his father's body, and murmured: "Father, Shu'er misses you......"
"Ahem!" The queen Liu Zhi on the side coughed lightly twice, reminding the father and daughter.
In a blink of an eye, Liu Yuan's harem heirs are all there, and the little twenty people are there. Liu Xun, the youngest son who was originally in swaddling clothes, was able to stagger, with his eyes wide open, looking at Liu Yuan, this strange man. Lan Yu looked at Liu Yuan deeply, her eyes were full of eagerness, she should have not been moisturized for a long time, and she was obviously very hungry.
"It's all gone!" Liu Yuan waved his hand and returned all the way north, and he had no intention of saying anything.
"How are the preparations for the relocation of the capital?" Summoning Lan Zhi and Wang Rou, Liu Yuan asked directly, he was concerned about this matter at the moment.
"Back to the king, all the government offices in the royal city have been mobilized, just wait for your edict to set off. The ministers are divided into three batches in the south, the first batch is the people who moved south, the second is the palace people and the relatives of the ministers, and the third is the official office of the city! Wang Rou replied.
Liu Yuan nodded, Lan and Wang, they are ready to come to this point, which can save him a lot of trouble, and he is here to escort the southward migration.
"What is the status of the south-moving households? Have you ever been willing to go south? After thinking about it, Liu Yuan asked.
Wang Rou smiled bitterly in her heart, the people of the Xia Kingdom around Meiji, regardless of Hu Han, have been staying in the local latest, and they have long been used to it. Liu Yuan gave an order, forcibly relocated, and left his homeland, how could he be willing.
"The families of the soldiers of the southern expedition, the first batch of more than 50,000 people, are ready to go south. To be reunited with brothers and nephews, the people are eager to go! Wang Rou can only say this.
Hearing this, he pondered for a long time, and Liu Yuan's voice was a little cold: "What about those nobles? That's what he cares about most.
Liu Yuan's tone was cold, which made the figures of the two people below tremble, Lan Zhi and Wang Rou glanced at each other, and bent down and said: "Most of the nobles and ministers are still willing to move south with the king, and only a few people are shallow and ignorant of the king's ambitions. His generation does not want to leave his homeland, and he is willing to ask for his life to guard the Hetao for the king! ”
"Great King, the old minister thinks that the large-scale migration of my Daxia subjects to the south will inevitably lead to the emptiness of the Hetao. After all, the Hetao is the foundation of the king, and there is no room for loss, so it is not impossible to leave it as the king's border and retain the way back! Lan Zhi suggested tentatively.
"If you let them guard the Hetao for Lone, I'm afraid that it will be difficult for Lone to be at peace in Chang'an, don't think about peace in the north!" Liu Yuan immediately said coldly, full of distrust.
Lan Zhi was silent when he heard this, his expression was a little embarrassed, and he bent his waist lower.
