When Zhuge Liang was 'escorted' to Chang'an by Zhao Yun, Luo Zheng had already led his army to the Western Regions.

Jia Xu had heard of Zhuge Liang's name, of course, from the lord Luo Zheng, and he had always been very curious about what talents the people who could be remembered by Luo Zheng were. Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu are not famous, but on the hunting list of the Xiliang Army, the military merits are the most except for Cao Cao and Liu Bei, which cannot but make people curious.

Zhou Yu is in Chang'an, and Jia Xu and Xun Yu have seen it.

Jia Xu has talked with Zhou Yu a few times, and has always admired Zhou Yu's quick thinking.

It's a pity that such talents can't be used by the Lord.

Zhuge Liang, like Zhou Yu, is one of the two people who are most valued by the lord.

Jia Xu and Xun Yu were very curious, and after Zhuge Liang arrived in Chang'an, the two had a long talk with Zhuge Liang.

After the initial understanding, both of them were surprised.

This is another great talent, and he has many unique views on both military and political strategies.

The two immediately extended an olive branch, although Zhuge Liang didn't like it in his heart, but he was very smart, and he didn't directly cut off his back like Zhou Yu, but just said that he still had to consider it, so he was not directly put under house arrest as a pig like Zhou Yu.

Jia Xu allocated Zhuge Liang a mansion and gave more than a dozen guards and servants, but did not restrict his freedom.

Zhuge Liang took the scholar [, and walked in the suburbs of Chang'an all day long.

Of course, no matter where he went, there were at least ten guards by his side.

Chang'an is very prosperous, more prosperous than Luoyang when the Han Dynasty was strong, and the merchant trade is very prosperous. Merchants from the south to the north are endless, and the silk in Shu, the leather goods in Mobei, and the gold, silver and jade from the Western Regions all meet here.

Although the world is constantly in turmoil. But Chang'an does not seem to be affected.

Xiangyang is also very prosperous, but the prosperity of Xiangyang seems to have a kind of drunken and dreamy decadence.

The bureaucrats did not know how long they would live. So being able to enjoy one day at a time, whether it is the scholars or the common people, they are a little worried in their bones, and they are afraid that one day an empty team will come over, which is a bit of a vain taste.

But the prosperity of Chang'an is different, and Chang'an people seem to be very confident.

That's right, it's confidence.

Zhuge Liang obviously felt that the people of Chang'an didn't seem to be very afraid of war, and they were very calm from the bottom of their bones. I don't believe that there will be an army that can reach Chang'an, which is fundamentally different from the prosperity of Xiangyang.

Xiangyang is very rich, but all the rich are scholars, and the life of the hundred tribes is actually not easy.

Chang'an is completely different, the people are also very rich, you can see one or two from the surface, there are almost no people with yellow faces and thin muscles.

"The people's aspirations, the world is the same!"

Zhuge Liang was greatly touched and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Although I heard that Guanzhong has been very prosperous in recent years. The people live in peace and live in abundance, but after all, it is only hearsay, and they have not seen it with their own eyes. Until you are in it, you can feel the prosperity of Chang'an.

This is the embodiment of strong national strength and cohesion of the people.

Jingzhou's scholar clan gate is very powerful. Large clans such as the Kuai clan and the Huang clan often cover an area of tens of thousands of hectares. There were tens of thousands of private soldiers and slaves in captivity, and more than half of the millions of people in Jingzhou were private soldiers and tenants of the Shi clan.

And in Guanzhong. There are almost no such gate valve forces.

Zhuge Liang inquired, only to learn that the government has clear regulations, which explicitly prohibits the gate lord clan from captive a large number of private soldiers and slaves and encircled land, let alone encroach on the people's land and property in any name, and dare to offend the family and exterminate the clan at every turn.

The criminal law under Luo Zheng's rule was very strict, and it was almost as fast as the pre-Qin period.

But what is incredible is that the scholars in Guanzhong are very honest, and no one dares to have an opinion.

Zhuge Liang took a deeper look and learned that almost all of the harsh laws under Luo Zheng's rule were aimed at the bureaucrats of the scholar clan.

Generally speaking, the law takes good care of the common people, but it is very strict with the gate lords of the scholars.

Historically, the great turmoil in the world was first shaken by peasant uprisings that shook the foundations of the rulers.

As long as the people don't rebel, no matter how much the scholar clan gate valve tosses, it won't be able to make any waves.

Zhuge Liang keenly observed the huge advantages of the political system under Luo Zheng's rule, gathered the hearts of the people and controlled the gate valve power, the people in Guanzhong had a good life, and it was absolutely impossible to rebel, so no matter how dissatisfied the gate valve of the Shi clan was, he would not dare to fart.

This phenomenon is unscientific, the gate valve is powerful, and Zhuge Liang, as a scholar, couldn't be clearer.

However, the power of the gate lords in Guanzhong was far inferior to that of Jingzhou, and it was not enough to restrain the rule of Chanluo.

Zhuge Liang walked through the countryside with a very heavy heart.

When he was still in Xiangyang, he always felt that if the world wanted to be unified, the generation of Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Luo Zheng, Yuan Shao, and Sun Ce could not see it, and at least after fifty or sixty years of continuous war and continued national strength, it would be possible to achieve unification.

But after coming to Guanzhong to see it with my own eyes, this idea was overturned.

Luo Zheng has occupied the land of Yong, Si, Liang, Henan, Yan, Yi, Shuo and half of Nanyang County, plus the vast Mobei grassland and the 800-mile Qiang Plain, the territory is so wide that it has surpassed the strongest period of the former Han Dynasty.

Coupled with the newly occupied Yanyu Prefecture, the population under his rule has exceeded 10 million.

In the past, Luo Zheng's biggest shortcoming was the lack of population, but now it has become the defense of the princes of the world, with a huge population base and the profit of terrifying gold and rice, coupled with the strong military system of the Xiliang Army, who else in the world is an opponent.

Originally, there were Cao Cao and Yuan Shao to control the elbow, but in the battle of Guandu, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao could almost be said to be defeated.

However, Luo Zheng took advantage of the situation to drive Cao Cao out of the Central Plains, and the general trend of the world has gradually become clear.

Zhuge Liang is even more worried that Yuan Shao said that the king has obviously not lived long, and the heir is not clear, and when Yuan Shao dies, Hebei will inevitably fall into civil strife, so I am afraid that within a few years, the four states of Hebei will also be owned by Luo Zheng.

Yuan Shao is still inferior to Luo Zheng, and his sons of waste wood are not Luo Zheng's opponents.

From the bottom of his heart, Zhuge Liang, as a scholar, has no good impression of Luo Zheng's grassroots, so he doesn't want to see Luo Zheng achieve hegemony, but if he seriously analyzes the situation, he can't help but worry that the strength of the Xiliang Military Group is beyond his expectations.

The monarchs and ministers are united, the soldiers are strong, the people live in peace, the money and food are sufficient, and the strength of the former Qin is nothing more than that!

Although Zhuge Liang doesn't want to admit it, but with so many huge advantages, with the eloquence of Luo Zheng, if he can't sweep away the heroes of Kanto and dominate the world, it will be hell!

"Xun Yu is really a capable minister who rules the world!"

Although Zhuge Liang compares himself to Guan Zhong, he also has to admit that Xun Yu is indeed very capable.

To be able to govern the Guanzhong to this kind of process, Xun Lan Indigo, who is responsible for government affairs, is absolutely contributional. (To be continued......) R1292
