Section 10 is full of twists and turns
"Do you really think it's okay to build a city into a circle?" Li Chengqian stood in front of the model, touched his short stubble, and asked Yun Ye suspiciously.
"This can't be helped, the topography has created such a shape of the city, I like this kind of city the most, and it is round and festive." Yun Ye explained to Li Chengqian indifferently.
"Speak well, you go and see the city of the Tang Dynasty, which one is like this, if you report it, I will be scolded to death by the ministers, be reasonable." Li Chengqian couldn't help it.
"Okay, let's be reasonable, you look at the mountain in the north, the name is Acacia Mountain, you look at the mountain in the south, the name is Dayun Mountain, this name sounds like, one stretches for more than 70 miles, and the other is directly connected to the Makufu Mountain, take a closer look, and find that this is two dragons fighting, so ah, this land has never been peaceful, how many wars and fierce battles a small city has experienced, not to mention, the king of Hejian was almost killed here, and the bones of the 20,000 army are gone, which shows that This place is not a good place to recruit soldiers.
Let's build this city round, you see, does it look like a dragon ball? As long as it is a dragon, who doesn't want this bead, there is a saying here, it is called two dragons playing with pearls, Acacia Mountain dragon gas walks around, wanders and twists and turns, stretches and undulates, winds from the north, goes to Yueyang in the territory of the dragon qi is prosperous, to Dongting Lake will stop and rise, more subtle and vigorous, so nine ups and downs, is the best dragon vein, such a good place does not build a round turtle city, it is really unreasonable. “
Li Chengqian glanced up at Yun Ye, knocked on the table and asked, "When did you start to understand Feng Shui?" “
"Since I found out that Yuan Tiangang fooled around casually and got a lot of money, this is a good craft, it must be learned, in the future, the Yun family will decline, and there will be a skill to be used to starve to death."
After Li Chengqian kicked everyone out, he grabbed Yun Ye's neck and roared: "You bastard is endless, just fool others." Why don't you even fool me? “
"Can't pinch. If you pinch it again, you'll die, okay, I'll tell you the reason. Only then did Li Chengqian let go of his hand, staring at Yun Ye's true words, Yun Ye poured a glass of water and didn't drink it, rubbed it back and forth in his palm, and said after a long while: "There is only one reason." I want to reduce expenses as much as possible and create more profits, this plain is so big, I can't do it if I want to curb both land and water, according to the planning of the imperial court, a city must not only play the role of enriching the people. It is also necessary to play a role in curbing the traffic between the north and the south, so that the traffic in the north and south is under the nose of Yueyang City, which is understandable, but have you thought about it, this city is too big, and the big one is not looking, how many soldiers and horses do you plan to send to guard the rush?
The City of Ten Miles. Seven miles of Guo. Not counting that, the city walls alone would have been thirty-six miles long. What are you kidding, who can hold the thirty-six-mile-long wall? How many soldiers and horses are needed? If there are too many soldiers and horses, they will occupy a lot of resources for free, and the money for building the city will be wasted in vain.
Did you know that in arithmetic there is a principle called the shape of the same circumference, and the area of the circle is the largest? Haven't heard of it? Oh, I didn't tell you, I have to build the shortest city wall and circle the largest land, and then the imperial court can maintain Yueyang's finances for a long time just by selling land.
The four claws that this turtle stretched out can just strangle the land route, and as for the water route, without a strong water army, who do you want to block? So, the city became a huge circle, and why didn't there be a city wall? It's because there is no need to build it yet, and who should build a city wall first when building a city in their own country? Now it's not too late to build the walls after the interior is ready. Because the city walls can hinder the transportation of materials. “
Li Chengqian sat for a while, patted the table and said, "You are always so reckless, you can't do this, isn't your original idea very good?" Why did you change your hexagram as soon as you arrived in Yueyang? It is customary to build a city with walls, and you can easily change the rules that have been established since ancient times, and it doesn't work, do you know how much resistance it will cause you? Even if you want to build a turtle castle, you need to put up the walls first, worry about the transportation of materials, it's very simple, you just need to leave a few more gaps, and it doesn't take much effort, let's say, what is the reason for you to do this. ”
I haven't seen him for a while, Li Chengqian has really become smarter, and he is no longer the kid who can be confused by just saying a few words, Yun Ye is very relieved and very disappointed, a person who knows how to think for himself has finally been cultivated by himself, but if he wants to fool him in the future, it will be more difficult, this is the standard self-inflicted, the tyrannical and arrogant Li Chengqian in history disappeared at this moment.
"Yueyang is about to fight, it's still a big battle, a vicious battle, the water thieves in Dongting Lake, under the bewitchment of the thieves, actually made a twelve-chain dock, they are annihilating one by one, swallowing up the small group of water thieves on the lake, and looting the grain that can be collected, that's why you come to Yueyang, you need to transport grain, because there is no food in Yueyang, sooner or later, there will be a fierce battle in Yueyang, and it is about to break out, don't you see that the Lingnan sailors have never dared to stay away from Yueyang for a while?"
Li Chengqian jumped up all of a sudden, knelt on the map of the two lakes to check, and whispered: "Not only is there a police in the new city, but the nearby Baling is also not safe, and the state capital around Yunmengze is in danger, and the police need to be called immediately." I need to report to my father. ”
"Your Majesty knows, Your Majesty knows clearly, why do you think Your Majesty sent you here and didn't let Fang Xuanling come, just because, worried that you will be found out by the old house, it's best for you to come, Your Majesty said, if you find a problem, just tell it, if you don't find a problem, send you back to Chang'an, you see, this is Your Majesty's will to me before you come."
Yun Ye took out a secret letter and handed it to Li Chengqian, Li Chengqian shook his head, pounded the table and whispered: "How can this be, I always thought that the water thieves in Dongting Lake were suffering from scabies, why did they become confidants in an instant?" ”
"Because I sent someone over to organize all the water thieves, and then I was accidentally seized by a very powerful person, and now this very powerful person wants to fight me to the death and avenge his eagle."
"Is it them? Did you deliberately twist the water thief into a rope? ”
"That's right, I gave the name of the Twelve Docks."
"And then someone else took power?"
"yes, that guy called the Water Dragon King is incapable and can't hold his position, so it's not surprising to be replaced by a more powerful guy."
"That Water Dragon King, not your person?"
"There have never been fools in the academy and the Yun family, at most there are two loyal fools who sweep the floor in the Yun family's ancestral hall. The rest are human spirits, and they don't even want to give others the right to eat one more bun for themselves, not to mention the status of the king of Dongting Lake, if they want to take it, they need to be at least ten times smarter than them, or ten times more profitable. ”
"So all the Qiē of Dongting Lake is under your control?"
"No, Your Majesty doesn't know how many spies are stuffed into the water thieves, and there are a few little water thieves who are former students of the academy, and I don't know why they appear in the thieves' den."
Li Chengqian squirted out with a sip of water, and the students of the academy will be water thieves? I didn't believe it when he was killed, these guys are now training in various yamen, how did they become the leaders of the water thieves?
"Who's in there? Or which one of the academy is among the water thieves? ”
"Liu Fang, Mr. Liu, he is now the military advisor of the new water thief leader, and the three thousand powerful water thieves under his command are almost all the essence of the water thieves, and the water thief leader is almost obedient to him, and he is also very authoritative among the water thieves sent by His Majesty."
Li Chengqian breathed a sigh of relief, and if he could control the direction of attack of the water thieves, it would be easy to say that if they blindly attacked Xincheng, they would be able to control the situation to the smallest extent.
"Now that you know everything, you can understand why the new city didn't build a wall, right? The reason why we didn't build the city wall is because we are building bunkers, since ancient times we have called thieves thieves, not afraid that they will form a unit, we are afraid that they will scatter, every time we encircle and suppress, there will always be thieves scattered all over the place, secretly continue to do the act of killing people and goods, a thief is killed, immediately there will be a lot of thieves to stand up, very terrible, so ah, we have to finish our work this time. ”
Li Chengqian knew that there were some things that Yun Ye didn't say, the thieves were nothing to the powerful army of the Tang Dynasty, there was no need to calculate to such a point, only that group of people was the most terrifying, the father probably figured out Guò's temptation this time to find the exact place of these people, and the father's attention to these people was far from being comparable to a city.
The two people went out and walked along the small lake outside the door, the moonlight took off the figures of the two people, fell on the water, and was blown by the evening breeze, it became distorted, Yun Ye kicked a stone into the lake, and watched the ripples wrinkle the reflection of the moon and stretch it, which was more comfortable, talking too much, both of them were too lazy to talk, there was really nothing to wait on the edge of the small lake at night, and in May, mosquitoes kept hatching and flying out of the lake, and the wings were not fully expanded, so they pounced fiercely on the two people. Dongyu and Li Chengqian's guards waved a large handful of lighted wormwood, trying to drive away all the insects, and soon the lake was covered with a faint light mist.
Calculating people don't make people feel better, Li Chengqian, who was sitting by the lake with his legs in his arms, suddenly sang a song, sang well, and his voice was very soft, but the accent was weird, I couldn't understand it, this is a very gentle song, listen carefully, you can hear that this is not a Han song......
After singing, Li Chengqian bared his white teeth and smiled at Yun Ye and said: "This is what my mother taught me to sing when I was a child, whenever I felt unhappy or depressed, I would sing, and after singing, I would feel comfortable and ......" (to be continued......
