Chapter 439: I don't know the suffering

Zhu Kezhen, a famous scholar in later generations, once discussed that the Tang Dynasty had a warm and humid climate during the warm period. However, Xue Lang didn't feel it at all, and even in the spring, he still felt dry.

In the past few days, the topic of the court discussion is the work plan and goals of various departments for the whole year, and the official of the Ministry of Civil Affairs is not big or small, and he is also needed to be included in the court council.

At this time of year, the imperial court has to discuss an issue -

The Turks go south!

The Turks frequently harassed and caused great border troubles. Last year, in order to reduce the cost of feeding, Shi Doujing, the governor of the state, asked in Tuntian. The problem with the Turks became a place where the imperial court needed to spend every year.

The sage said: "Some time ago, someone told me that the reason why the Turks attacked Guanzhong was because their wealth and population were concentrated in Chang'an, and it was proposed that if Chang'an was burned and no longer the capital, the Turks would not attack Chang'an. Come on, bring the map! ”

The huge map was carried up, spread on the ground, the sage held a cane, pointed to the map and said: "This is Chang'an, this is the Guanzhong region, here is the grassland of the Turks, in previous years, the Turks often attacked my Tang Dynasty from here, here, here, Chang'an is adjacent to the border pass, and the location is unfavorable." If the Turkic cavalry drove straight in, Chang'an would be in danger. What do you think? ”

Everyone looked around the map for a while, and the prince said: "If you are today and there is injustice inside and outside, the so-called Xiangwai must first settle inside, and for the country to extend, there is really merit in moving the capital." The capital city of a country is the desire of the people, if the capital is stable, the country is stable, and the people's desire can also free up the court to settle down. As long as the world is calm, there will be more strength to fight with the Turks, and the Turks will have nothing to worry about! ”

King Qi immediately followed: "The minister seconded the proposal!" ”

The saint nodded and looked at everyone: "What about the Qing family?" ”

Xiao Yu stood up and said, "The minister is against it!" Moving the capital is not a trivial matter, and the manpower and material resources involved are not trivial, please think twice. ”

Several ministers also came forward to express their opposition. Pei Lin said: "Saint, the minister thinks that it is imperative to move the capital!" The Turks disturbed the border all the year round, the border people were poor, the imperial court spent countless burdens, grain and grass, and military strength, and because the capital Chang'an was adjacent to the border pass, it needed to spend more, if the capital moved to the hinterland, there was no need to worry about being captured, and the imperial court could also free up more energy and materials to quell the civil strife. The day when the civil strife is settled, it is the time when the Turks will fall! Therefore, the minister also seconded the proposal! ”

The approval of the crown prince, the king of Qi, and Pei Lin gave the saint a lot of confidence, and the expressions on his face looked much better. ”

The corners of the prince's eyes twitched, and he looked at King Qin with a deep face. King Qin didn't care about so much, and said straightforwardly: "The trouble of Di Rong has existed since ancient times, Your Majesty has prospered with the Holy Martial Dragon, the king has landed in Zhongxia, and the elite soldiers are million, and the conquest is invincible!" How can you want to move the capital and avoid it because of Turkic disturbances? This move is a shame for the whole world, and it is a smile for the world? ”

Before King Qin's words fell, Xue Lang, who couldn't listen to it for a long time, immediately raised the wat board and clapped it non-stop, expressing his support, and there was a sentence in his heart that he wanted to talk about it!

The king of Qin was not moved, but bowed down directly, and said sincerely and firmly: "Pi Huo is just a general of the Han court, and he is still determined to destroy the Huns, and he is willing to take a few years of leave to put the rope on the Jieli Jin for His Majesty, so that he will be lowered." If the minister can't do it, it's not too late to move the capital! ”

Xue Lang continued to shoot the wat board, and after the shooting, he also came out and said: "The minister supports King Qin!" China has been established for thousands of years, and I have never heard of anyone who moved the capital in order to avoid the Hu people, and I dare to ask the sage, but do I want to set a precedent that has never been seen in the ages? With all due respect, a hundred years later, how will future generations evaluate this matter? Think again, saints! ”

The sage touched his beard and bowed his chin: "The words of King Qin and Xue Lang, great goodness!" ”

The crown prince smiled and asked: "In the past, Fan Xu was rampant with 100,000 people, and the words of the King of Qin were not similar to them?" ”

King Qin said proudly: "The forms are different, and the natural use of troops is different. Fan Xiao erected, what is the reason? ”

The prince just smiled and didn't say anything, but there seemed to be a deep meaning in his smile. However, King Qin didn't seem to care.

Xue Lang sighed in his heart and said: "Sage, the minister is not a general who leads the army, I don't know how many years it will take to level the Turks, but the minister knows that it will take several generations to build a Chang'an." Chang'an, when King Wen of Zhou, built it, known as Fengjing in history, and later built a pickaxe by King Wu, collectively known as Fenghao. When he arrived at the Han Dynasty Gaozu, the capital was moved from Liyang to here, and it was called Chang'an in history, which means long-term peace and stability. Emperor Wen of the previous dynasty set the capital here, called Daxing City, and the saint ascended the throne and changed its name to Chang'an. Generations of construction have today's prosperity, and it will not be achieved in one day. It is easy to move the capital, and it can be ordered by the sage, however, as Xiao Neishi said, how to calculate the manpower and material resources spent? ”

The crowd was thoughtful. Xue Lang paused and continued: "First of all, material resources! After the relocation of the capital, the construction of the new capital city, the construction of the city requires a lot of manpower and material resources, and then, the palace of the saint, the residences of the princes and ministers, where do these expenses come from? The lesson of the former Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty is still in front of us! ”

Everyone was shocked, and the saint was all in his thoughts.

Xue Lang continued to make persistent efforts and said, "There is still manpower!" The new construction of the capital city will definitely require the migration of a large number of people. Even though there is a large amount of land near the new capital, for the sake of people's livelihood and stability, the ownerless wasteland can only be selected. A piece of wasteland, no matter how fertile, is still raw land, and it takes at least a year or two to cultivate it before it can become a cooked land. There is a gap in yield between raw and cooked land! Excuse me, where will the imperial court replenish the food shortage in the past two years? The inhabitants of the migration must eat, not go hungry, and who can be responsible if there is any riot because of it? Who can afford this responsibility! Tell me that the person who is sparse is just grandstanding, but his brain has written the sparse play, do you know how to write the word "suffering"? Burning Chang'an ...... It's easy to say, he burned the money to build a new city, did he do it all? If so, then it is not too late for the saint to consider moving the capital! ”

"Ahem!"

The saint's face was flushed when he was said, he coughed twice, glanced at him, and said: "King Qin and Xue Lang are reasonable, this matter will be stopped, and it will never be discussed again!" ”

"Sage Shengming!"

The sage reluctantly said: "Today's court meeting is here first, I'm tired, retreat!" ”

The sage retreated from the court and returned to the harem, the prince saw King Qin and Xue Lang together, the two of them went out of the palace together, his eyes flickered, he thought about it, and turned around and walked towards the harem.

King Qin didn't pay attention to the prince's movements, but stopped Xue Lang with a smile: "Youyang, please stay." ”

Xue Lang turned around, and King Qin said with a smile: "I didn't expect to coincide with Youyang today, it's really gratifying, Youyang's last words made me angry!" ”

Speaking of the last words, Xue Lang was still a little depressed in his heart, and snorted angrily: "Originally, it was simple to write a sparse play, but it would be very wrong to write it with your ass instead of your head!" When a city is built, it costs countless people, and it burns out in a fire, and I don't know how to cherish it! Prosperity, the people suffer, death, the people suffer. The people who are most discussed about burning the city after the war are too ignorant of suffering! ”

King Qin's face turned red, his expression was a little uncomfortable, and he snorted: "Youyang is reasonable!" Another day, I will invite Youyang to come over to drink and feast, and the people of the world will leave first! ”

After saying that, he ran away like a burning ass. After leaving Xue Lang, he reacted consciously, it seems that this King of Qin also let go of fire when he broke through Luoyang!

it! actually mocked King Qin to his face! Not...... King Qin shouldn't hold grudges, right?

In other words, Wei Zheng refuted him in person, he didn't hold grudges, and praised Wei Zheng...... Xue Lang is just an unintentional mistake, and he should not be counted!

Xue Lang explained himself like this, and then went home with peace of mind!
