393 Double Reed
Hu Guang's funeral, Liu Hong personally arranged, also according to the scale of history, and Liu Hong also made his two sons marquis, plus his eldest grandson inherited his marquisate title, one family and three marquis, which can be regarded as Liu Hong's completion of his commitment. And after all this was done, the matter of moving the capital was put on the agenda.
Moving the capital is not a trivial matter, even when the new capital is built, the imperial court began to prepare for the relocation of the capital. But when the relocation of the capital really began, people still felt that they were confused and did not know how to proceed. After all, moving the capital is not a refugee, and people don't want to give up all kinds of things. But the distance between the two places is so far that it is impossible to take all the items away, which makes people worry.
Of course, this kind of thing is just a little bit of a thing. The obstruction of various forces is the real trouble. You must know that because of the relationship of interests, at the beginning of Liu Hong's decision to move the capital, there were countless people who opposed it.
After all, Luoyang has been the capital for so many years, and it has long become the center of the Han Dynasty. Wealthy people buy houses and do business here, and many big families, because of this, put their roots here. Now that the capital has been moved, the central position of Luoyang is not there, those industries and businesses will definitely plummet, and those big families will also be affected. Of course they won't want to, of course they will try their best to obstruct it. Especially now, when the relocation of the capital is about to begin, the obstruction of the folds, like flying snowflakes, have all floated in front of Liu Hong.
"Alas, interests, it's all interests."
Things have come to this point, and it is definitely impossible not to move. Don't say that Liu Hong has long wanted to "return to the roots", just spending so much money to build this new capital, it can't be so blind. But now, those snowflakes-like folds also give Liu Hong an incomparable headache. After all, the power they represent is quite large, and Liu Hong has to consider their opinions carefully.
Of course, with Liu Hong's current prestige, no one can stop him from forcibly moving the capital. But in that case, it will inevitably create a gap between Liu Hong and those forces. It doesn't matter if those forces are small, but those forces are not so huge, and it really doesn't make sense. Therefore, Liu Hong felt that it was better for him to handle this matter properly.
"What the hell is going to do so that those guys can stop rapping?" Sitting in the palace, Liu Hong began to ponder, "It's easy to talk about and discuss, but it's definitely not good." It is also impossible to lure them with benefits. How do I do that? ”
This kind of thing is really not so easy to solve, Liu Hong has not come up with any decent countermeasures for several days. And those guys, seeing that Liu Hong didn't come out to express his position, all tried their best to make the last effort.
"I, why are these guys so dead-eyed. Move the capital to the new capital, where the forces are almost blank, isn't it more suitable for you to operate? Coupled with the old base of Luoyang, it will be more free to advance and retreat, and it will definitely not suffer. Liu Hong scolded while looking at those opposing folds, and he didn't dare to act rashly, "Made, look at these folds, if I really move the capital regardless of it, they will make a fuss, it will definitely be an earthquake!" ”
"Earthquake, yes, earthquake!"
This thought, Liu Hong reminded himself of something he had long ignored, that is, there was an earthquake in October this year!
At the time of the last earthquake, Liu Hong had already built Luoyang as solid as gold, and he didn't have to worry about ordinary earthquakes at all. Therefore, after a long time, he forgot about the earthquake. But now, Liu Hong feels that he should be able to take advantage of this earthquake.
The ancients couldn't figure out what was going on with an earthquake, and most of them classified it as a warning from heaven. And since this is the case, it will be easy for Liu Hong to use it to make a fuss.
"It's still early in October, and I have to fight a public opinion war first."
Liu Hong is an emperor, not a god. Therefore, if he wants to use the earthquake to make a fuss, it is impossible to say it plainly, and he needs to have an introduction. And Liu Hong directly positioned this introduction to rumors. Because Liu Hong knows very well that in this era, this thing is the most effective. Otherwise, when Dong Zhuo moved the capital "back then", how could he not do anything else, he had to make a "Han in the east, a Han in the west, and the deer walked into Chang'an, so that there would be no difficulty." The nursery rhyme creates public opinion. Therefore, Liu Hong needs an introduction now, and of course he thought of Dong Zhuo's "successful" experience at the first time. Decided, to borrow it.
Rumors are easy to make, and Xu Xiang, Liu Hong's subordinates, has done this a lot. So if you leave this matter to him, he will definitely be able to do it, but rumors alone are not enough, he has to find a heavyweight and sing him a double reed.
"Regarding the earthquake, it's better to find a magic stick to cooperate." Thinking of this, Liu Hong began to ponder, whether he wanted to find the Daomen to cooperate, or the Buddhism to cooperate, "Forget it, let's find the Daomen." ”
As soon as the yoga trend led by Ding Luoli rose, Buddhism immediately took advantage of the situation to develop. The current momentum is faintly surpassing the posture of the Daomen. Therefore, Liu Hong absolutely, he should be helping the Daomen and balancing the forces of the two gates. Moreover, the foundation of Buddhism is in Luoyang, and there are those opposition forces, and Liu Hong is not at ease when he hands over this matter to them.
The forces of the Daomen are relatively scattered, but Zhang Heng, the Daoist Sect of the Daomen, is in Luoyang. After making up his mind, Liu Hong did not delay at all, and directly found Zhang Heng.
Zhang Heng is a person who is extremely knowledgeable about current affairs, and all of his things come from Liu Hong. Therefore, it must be what Liu Hong asked him to do, and he did it.
After arranging all this, rumors suddenly broke in the capital, saying that Luoyang City was blessed and could not afford to be the imperial capital for such a long time, so if the capital was not moved, there would be a disaster in Luoyang.
The opposition forces scoffed at these rumors that popped up out of nowhere. They knew very well that this must be the counterattack of those who wanted to move the capital, or even the emperor.
Now that the hostile forces have already made a move, how can those people not accept it. Therefore, they discussed that they would deal a fatal blow to those hostile forces at the time of the court meeting, completely shatter the rumors, and let Liu Hong dispel the idea of moving the capital. And they didn't know that Liu Hong was waiting for this, and also prepared double reeds for them, to put them into the urn thoroughly. (To be continued.)
