Time is like flowing water, reluctant to give up day and night.

After more than 80 days and nights of hard work, Xia Gao finally ushered in the day when Yuanbi City was completed, these days, of course, Xia Gao did something else, but more technicians and front-line workers never left this big construction site; When Xia Gao asked people to send their wages down and gave another order to let everyone leave Yuanbi City, he was responded to by sobs from the audience.

The workers were rejoicing at the miracle of creating the Round Wall City, but they were also disappointed to leave.

How could Xia Gao not be like this?

However, now does not seem to be the time for Xia Gao to rejoice, at least he needs to accept Yang Guang's personal acceptance, although there will be no surprises in this acceptance, otherwise he will not dismiss the workers.

Yang Guang has not had an easy time recently, he not only supervised the departure of the Eastern Army, but also carried out a series of reforms to official positions and weights and measures.

Since the army to the east is set off, of course Ono girls must also accompany it, otherwise what is the point of the army's performance? When Pei Shiqing, the Honglu guest, told him that the army would first recover the Ryukyu kingdoms and then go north to Fuso, Ono's face turned green at that time, and he thought that his trip to the eastern capital still made the emperor of the Great Sui angry, but what could he do other than be a shameful leader of the party?

Compared to the trembling of the Ono girl, Bard is living a comfortable little life, compared to the overstretched when he came, he is at least full at this time. Wei Hou and Hou Junji on the side looked at his villainous appearance, and they wanted to throw him into the sea. - Wei Hou and Hou Junji went to sea at the behest of King Qi, although Wei Hou and Hou Junji were on vacation before.

Wei Hou had nothing to say about King Qi's arrangement, after all, he knew the weight of this brother-in-law's heart; Hou Junji was a little reluctant, and finally mustered up the courage to go to sea under Su You's persuasion, naturally, he and Pei Yuyan also had a life and death parting, which was not enough for outsiders.

Yang Guanglong walked in a tiger step, but the pomp behind him was not too big, King Qi and Su You and others were naturally on the side, and there were thousands of guards who had already taken over the inside and outside of Yuanbi City. The round wall city is elliptical, there are three gates in the north and south directions, and there are two gates in the east and west directions.

Walking on the flat and wide cement floor, looking at the oval behemoth in front of him with a radius of nearly four hundred zhang and a height of seven or eight zhang, Yang Guang couldn't help but nod again and again, and kept praising himself: "What a skillful work!" Qi Wang Su You and the others nodded yes, good words and three winters were warm, Xia Gao heard Yang Guang's praise, and tears were about to flow out.

"This stele?" Yang Guang walked forward dozens of zhang, but saw that there was a white marble stele a few zhang away from the main gate of Yuanbi City, but there was no word on the stele.

"Back to His Majesty, the back of this stele is engraved with the construction of the Round Wall City, but the front is the ink treasure left for His Majesty." Hearing Yang Guang's question, King Qi hurriedly stepped forward and responded.

"You can take the four treasures of the study!" Of course, Yang Guangzi didn't let it, and commanded in a deep voice.

Xia Gao hurriedly beckoned to the side, and the little guys brought up the table and the four treasures of the study that had been prepared long ago, Yang Guang grabbed the pen, soaked it in ink, and wrote down three big characters "Yuanbi City" in one go, and then the title was not a problem.

"Good! Xia Gao, remember to send it to me after this pair of words is engraved. Everyone immediately applauded, and King Qi also gave Xia Gao a few extra words, this sycophant shot was obvious, but Yang Guang was very interested; Xia Gao nodded to himself, but he was depressed in his heart, he had already planned a qiē, the purpose was to get Yang Guang's true handwriting, but ......

"Xia Gao, lead the way in front of the head, I want to visit this round wall city." Yang Guang looked at the look of loss on Xia Gao's face, and guessed the reason, and then found something for him to do, so as not to let him think nonsense; In fact, he had already learned about the detailed number of Yuanbi City from the reports submitted by Yang Er and Su You.

Yang Guang stands at the highest point of Yuanbi City, with an unobstructed view of the landscape in the field, and the middle of the field is of course the standard polo field transplanted with new turf, the polo field is surrounded by a circular cement road, and it is a cement stand that expands outward, with nearly 40 rows of stands from top to bottom, which can accommodate nearly 50,000 spectators.

The stands are divided into a total of 20 areas, of which the middle of the north is the VIP area, and the seats in this area are not arranged like other stands, so they are naturally the exclusive seats of the emperor and important ministers of the court.

It's an epic project, and if you have to pick a thorn in the egg, you might have to single out the fact that the Round Wall City is an open-air building.

Yang Guang stood at the top of Yuanbi City and looked out, only to see that new buildings were being built everywhere around Yuanbi City, all of which were detached from the auction in the hands of the imperial court a month ago; But now cement is not yet widespread, so it is clear that their construction speed is far less than that of the round wall.

Yang Guang looked west again, looking at the imperial city not far from here, if this round-walled city was used by people with ulterior motives, and then it was not good for the imperial city? The consequences are unimaginable. ——Although Yang Guang thought so, he remained silent.

"Excellent! Today is worth my trip, and all those involved in the construction of the Round Wall City will be rewarded. Yang Guang nodded, forced his unhappiness to the bottom of his heart, and announced the reward on the spot.

"Thank you." Yang Yu Su You Xia and others thanked them together, this was originally the proper meaning of the question, Yang Guang was not stingy with rewards, but he was more cautious about awarding official positions.

"King Qi, how are the preparations of the participating teams? I can't wait. Yang Guang saw everyone kneeling and bowing, so he waved his hand without mind, and asked Yang Ying inadvertently.

"Back to my father, everything is ready, just wait for His Majesty's order." King Qi replied with confidence. In fact, for the expectation of the polo match, Yang Er's attention is not lower than Yang Guang's now, he even ran to this round wall city in three days as early as half a month ago, in order to give Yang Guang a good impression of being able to do big things, he also invited Su You, Liu Weimin and others to make preparations early, and Su You also put forward the idea of "opening ceremony" in a timely manner.

"The tournament will start in three days. Also, what is the opening ceremony you are talking about? For the sake of stability, Yang Guang still gave Yang two more days to prepare.

"Returning to my father, in fact, it is like a soldier on the battlefield."

"It's kind of interesting." After Yang Guang heard what his son said, he couldn't help but yearn for it, saying that he hadn't ordered soldiers for more than ten years.

It was about this time that the citizens of the Eastern Capital got a new issue of the newspaper, and coincidentally, the "Eastern Capital News" and the "Reference News" both launched a lot of publicity about the opening ceremony of the polo match three days later.

"The prosperous age is coming, this big scene is unprecedented, the Son of Heaven must have spent a lot of money." A little old man put down the newspaper and picked up the tea bowl while brushing his beard.

"Isn't that right? When I watched the opening ceremony of the polo match, it was the same as counting soldiers before the war. Well, now we can finally ...... "a young man who doesn't know how to read, and all about the opening ceremony of a polo match is hearsay."

"Not necessarily." A man who looked like an uncle looked at the young man and was overexcited, and couldn't help but splash a scoop of cold water on his head.

"Why not? Didn't you say that tickets will be charged the next day after the polo match? Didn't you say that it would be free that day? I don't read much, don't lie to me. When the young man heard the uncle's blow, he immediately became anxious, but the gentleman didn't move his mouth, and the people of Dongdu were still very sophisticated.

"It's on this free! Do you think, the emperor came in person that day, and twenty-eight teams asked him to review, so what are the audience? Naturally, he is also a reviewer! It's a royal treat. Isn't everyone swarming to think like this? Who can you outrun with your little short legs? After the uncle finished speaking, he also patted the young man's head.

"It's a big deal to wake up early." The young man muttered, as if he was also worried about not being able to enter the venue after three days.

In the afternoon of the same day, Yang Er summoned twenty-eight teams to come to Yuanbi City, although he said that he wanted these players to be familiar with the court, but in fact he came for rehearsal, after all, he said a big thing in front of his father, if he didn't prepare early, the face he would lose was not just his own.

The twenty-eight participating teams have basically carried out the final sprint stage of the team at this time, but the king of Qi can't recruit each other, not to mention that all the teams are here, and there is no zài unfairness or anything, and then naturally they walked around and practiced horseback riding for an afternoon, but fortunately, when the sun just set, there was a horse that rode in front of the king of Qi.

"The Imperial Court takes over? It's good. King Qi looked at the general Fan Zigai in front of him and showed Yang Guang's warrant, naturally he didn't have anything to say, and with a wave of his hand, the twenty-eight teams had withdrawn from Yuanbi City in an orderly manner.

"Father is still a little worried about me." When everyone left, Yang Er shook his head helplessly. I didn't see anything about Yuanbi Castle before it was built, but now it can become a large barracks that can be attacked, retreated, and defended, especially when it is so close to the Imperial City, it is like a fish bone stuck in the throat.

"In peacetime, Yuanbi City is used as a place for military training, and in wartime, it is ......" Liu Weimin did not continue, if you need to use Yuanbi City as an acropolis, it is obviously the time for Luoyang to be embattled, but is this possible?

"There's nothing wrong with that. It's better for Yuanbi City to be in the hands of His Majesty, if you don't have anything to do with me, it's really not a thing. Yang Er sneered, anyway, he had no bad intentions, so he naturally had no guilt in his heart.

Liu Weimin was just speechless, and he had a deeper understanding of Yang Er's situation.
