Chapter Ninety-Four: A New Dynasty Begins
Two months later, at Pujin Pass, with the sound of a melodious bell, thousands of defenders at the head of the city raised their spears together to salute a long convoy of horses.
The gate of Pujin Pass was opened, and a convoy of 300 carriages slowly drove into the gate under the escort of 3,000 cavalry.
In the second carriage, Pei Minqiu quietly stared at the red eagle battle flag fluttering on the head of the city, her eyes revealing mixed emotions, although she knew that this day would come sooner or later, but when it finally came, she felt infinite emotion in her heart.
Soon, she will become the queen of this new dynasty, and she will be the mother of the world, and whether she can do a good job makes her worried.
Sitting opposite her is Zhang Chuchen, she will be named the concubine, but she doesn't take this name seriously, she has more of a yearning for the future life in her heart.
"Eldest sister, when did Yuan Qing say that he was going to inspect Jiangnan?"
"It's like autumn!"
Pei Minqiu smiled slightly: "Do you want to go with him?" ”
Zhang Chuchen nodded, "I miss the water and land over there, and I always hope to see it again, but I'm afraid that I won't have a chance in the future." ”
"How could there be no chance? There are still a long days to come! ”
Pei Minqiu's eyes were blue in the sky, in fact, she was also a little worried, once they entered the palace, would they still be able to travel with their families like the Chu Palace?
In the latter carriage, Yang Bing and Yang Fangxin sat at the small table. Another name was written over and over again, Xiao Fangxin, Xiao was her mother's surname, and she would change her name to Xiao Fangxin in the future, and Yang Fangxin disappeared from the world.
"Auntie, don't write it, you've written it hundreds of times, can I still make a mistake?"
Yang Bing said with a smile on the side.
Yang Fangxin's face flushed. "What are you doing with so many mouths? Do you want me to do the embroidery bag thing and say it. ”
Yang Bing's face immediately became a little unnatural. "What does it matter if I make embroidered bags for my father?"
"Really?"
Yang Fangxin looked at her with a smile, "You made two embroidered bags, and the other embroidered bag has the word Huaiyu on it." I don't understand, who is called Huaiyu, is it the wrong embroidery of 'Huaichun'? ”
"You damn girl. Watch me screw your mouth! ”
Yang Bing rushed up, pounced on her, and reached out to pinch her face, "Look at how dare you chew your tongue!" ”
There was a burst of laughter begging for mercy from the carriage, "Don't scratch it, I don't dare say it again." ”
In the back of a carriage. Yang Yuanqing's second son, Yang Jing, took one in his hand. From time to time, he poked out and looked curiously at the carriage in front of him. He has a weak figure, like a girl, and is unusually quiet.
He covered his mouth and laughed, "Big brother, it seems that the eldest sister is tickling Auntie's itch." ”
Sitting opposite him was the eldest son Yang Ning, who was leaning against the wall of the car reading a book, and seeing that his brother was a little absent-minded, he reached out and knocked on the small table, "Be attentive!" ”
"Oh!"
Yang Jing stuck out his tongue, sat down obediently, unfolded the book and read it seriously, he was a serious child, and he liked to read very much, a bit like Yang Yu who was hiding in Jinyang Palace to read, once his mother Ah Lian didn't see him all day, so scared that the whole family searched around, and even the well was drained, and finally found him hiding in his father's outer study to read.
Yang Ning, who was opposite him, was a little uneasy, and seemed to have something on his mind, Master Li Gang told him that he was about to become the prince, and he had to learn how to be the prince, and he had set dozens of rules for him, and he had to talk about the rules when he spoke and walked.
Yang Ning sighed in his heart, he also wanted to go out with his father to inspect, I don't know if his father is willing to take him along?
Behind them was a carriage of Jiang Peihua and Wei Chixuan, Jiang Peihua held his son and looked out the window, and from time to time whispered to him about the birds flying outside the window, and told him about the sheep on the side of the road, and the little guy giggled with joy.
At this time, Jiang Peihua glanced back at Wei Chiwan and asked with concern, "What, is the reaction serious?" ”
Yu Chiwan's lower abdomen has been slightly bulging, her face is pale, she covers her mouth with a handkerchief, retching from time to time, she is almost four months pregnant, but the reaction is still very serious, especially this trek from Taiyuan to Chang'an, first by boat, and then by carriage, it is better to take a boat, but the carriage is bumpy and she is extremely uncomfortable.
"Third sister, when will we arrive in Chang'an, I really can't stand it."
Jiang Peihua hurriedly handed the child to the nurse next to her, gently supported her, patted her back, and said in a low voice: "Hold on a little longer, walk dozens of miles to Guangtong Canal, we still take a boat and go directly to Chang'an." ”
"Hmm!" Yu Chiwan nodded, retching again.
The long convoy entered the Pujin Pass and turned southwest in the direction of the Guangtong Canal, where dozens of boats were already waiting for them.
.........
Huining County, Yang Yuanqing inspected Hehuang and returned, transferred to Huining, inspected the silver mines here, silver mines have been mined on a large scale, more than 60,000 miners from Guanlong, Hexi and Turkic, here day and night to mine silver and copper ore, after a little roughing, and then transferred to Lingwu County to refine into silver and copper ingots.
The highest official in charge of the Huining silver mine was Ma Shao, who followed Yang Yuanqing for more than 20 years, was loyal to Yang Yuanqing, and was knighted as the Duke of Yingguo, the champion general, and served as the deputy governor of Guannei Province and the governor of Huining.
Ma Shao is over forty years old and has two sons, both of whom are in the army, of which the eldest son Ma Shuwu is Yang Yuanqing's personal military captain.
At this time, Ma Shao was accompanying Yang Yuanqing to inspect the silver mine, and he pointed to a newly built silver mine with a horsewhip and said with a smile: "Your Highness, at the beginning of that silver mine, we will no longer use the way of a mine, but a mine, gradually expanding and deepening, and eventually a huge pit will be formed, which should be enough for the world's silver consumption." ”
Yang Yuanqing shook his head and said: "We can't always rely on the silver mine in Huining County, we should be prepared for danger in times of peace, and think of finding new sources of silver, and trading with the West is a good way." Silk, tea, porcelain, our profits are a steady stream of silver and gold sent from the West, and in the future, the silver mines in Huiningjun cannot be expanded again, and we must leave a little for our children and grandchildren, understand? ”
"Ignorance, understood!"
After a pause, Ma Shao said cautiously: "Why does Your Highness want to leave the remnants of Li Tang and not kill them all?" ”
Yang Yuanqing glanced at him and said with a faint smile: "Why do you want to kill them all?" ”
"Back then, Yang Jian killed the Yuwen royal family." Marsho was a little unconvinced.
"Then why didn't Yang Jian kill the royal family of Chen Guo and Xiao State?"
"This ......," Marsho muttered. He kind of reacted. Yang Jian killed the Yuwen royal family because of the usurpation, which is different from Yang Yuanqing.
Yang Yuanqing smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "You have to have the grace to sit in the world, I can spare Dou Jiande and Xiao Miao." Why can't Li Jiancheng be spared? Is it still possible for them to roll over? If you don't even have this self-confidence, how can you win the world? ”
Ma Shao lowered his head, bit his lip for a while, and said, "Your Highness." I don't want to guard the silver mines, I want to expand the border for His Highness, let me also participate in the fight against Goryeo! ”
Yang Yuanqing shook his head slightly, and Ma Shao suddenly became anxious, "Your Highness, I am only forty-five years old. At least ten more years of conquest. Watching them mine all day makes me go crazy. ”
Yang Yuanqing smiled. "I don't mean that, I want you to fight the Western Turks, although the Western Turk tent has been breached, but the remnants are still there, and they will continue to attack, in a few months, you and Yang Wei will work together to assist Su Dingfang in the expedition to the west."
Ma Shao was overjoyed, "Thank you for your kindness!" ”
........
Leaving Huining County, Yang Yuanqing continued to march towards Chang'an, and that night after Shiping County, thousands of troops were stationed outside the small town of Acheng, and there were still more than forty miles away from Chang'an.
At this time, a soldier came to report, "Du Xiangguo is here!" ”
Yang Yuanqing was reading a book in the tent, so he nodded and smiled: "Please let him in." ”
For a moment, Du Ruhui hurriedly walked from a distance, looking at Du Ruhui's figure, Yang Yuanqing remembered Fang Xuanling, who was captured in the final decisive battle, and refused to bow his head until Li Jiancheng surrendered, he finally returned to obedience, and now serves as the governor of Shu County.
At this time, Du Ruhui walked into the big tent, bowed and saluted: "See Your Highness!" ”
"Du Xiangguo doesn't have to be polite, please take a seat!"
Du Ruhui sat down and said with a smile: "Congratulations to Your Highness, a good omen from the sky!" ”
"What's the good sign?" Yang Yuanqing couldn't help but laugh.
"This morning, a colorful phoenix bird landed on the prayer tower of Suzaku Street, causing a sensation all over the city, more than 100,000 people witnessed the phoenix bird, and even the ministers also saw it with their own eyes. Breathtaking! ”
Although Du Ruhui knew that this was the masterpiece of the craftsman young eunuch He Chou, he still couldn't help but admire, it was simply ingenious, and it was difficult to distinguish between the real and the fake.
"Your Highness, the time is ripe to perform the Zen ceremony, Your Highness needs to resign three times before you can accept the world's social discipline."
Yang Yuanqing squinted and smiled, but he changed the topic, "The courtiers have moved to Chang'an, have they settled down?" ”
"Everyone has settled down, and the court is functioning normally."
Yang Yuanqing stood up, "Let's go!" ”
The two walked out of the big tent and paced slowly in the moonlight, Yang Yuanqing looked at the bright moonlight in the sky with his hands, sighed softly and said, "Recently, I've been thinking, what kind of lesson should I learn from Yang Guang, so that I can't repeat his mistakes again?" ”
Du Ruhui said in a low voice: "Your Highness, we have also discussed this issue in Ziwei Pavilion, the key is in three points, appointing the virtuous, accepting advice, and cherishing the people, as long as Your Highness can do these three, the world can be prosperous, and Your Highness has done a good job." ”
Yang Yuanqing shook his head slightly, "Even if I do well, my son, grandson, great-grandson, great-grandson, great-grandson, will they do the same good?" ”
"What does Your Highness mean?"
Yang Yuanqing stared at the night sky and said slowly: "I think there is only one key, decentralization!" ”
Du Ruhui pondered for a long time and said: "Does Your Highness mean to follow the example of the Han Dynasty and divide the power between the monarchs?" ”
Yang Yuanqing smiled, "You can also say that, but it's not quite, it's not something that can be decided for a while, it takes many years of exploration, and we need to change up and down, but we can try slowly." ”
Yang Yuanqing looked back in the direction of Chang'an, and under the cover of night, he seemed to hear the bell from Chang'an.
Tomorrow, he will return to Chang'an, a day he has been looking forward to for a long time.
The next chapter is over, and Lao Gao is a little sad and reluctant. (To be continued)
