Chapter 688: The Great Wave of the Times
Zhang Chu entered Zhongyuanzhou with the second victory day.
After entering Zhongyuan Prefecture, in order to take care of Zhang Chu, the first time to go out of the northwest of Yan, the two changed their flight to cycling.
The second Shengtian is to fulfill the friendship of the landlord, leading Zhang Chuxin to the reins, through the state through the province, entering the mountains, changing boats when encountering water, and traveling all over Zhongyuanzhou.
After traveling in Zhongyuan Prefecture for seven or eight days, Zhang Chu did have an eye-opening feeling.
As far as he can see, the eight hundred miles of Zhongyuan can indeed support the treasures of the heavens and the outstanding people.
Flat and solid horse trail down to the township.
Everywhere, you can see the little officials in soap clothes, rolling up their trouser legs and carrying hoes, walking through the fields.
Everywhere you can see rangers with swords and swords, riding tall horses, brandishing whips and galloping on the horse path.
Even the old peasants, with no vegetables on their faces, and their mouths full of food, look like they have read the books of sages......
This is the atmosphere that a big country should have!
This reminded Zhang Chu of Xuanbei Prefecture back then.
At that time, Xuanbei Prefecture may not have been as educated as Central Plains Prefecture.
A slum like Wutongli is so poor that it can't be sold for a good price.
But this is a very small minority.
Most of the people in Xuanbei Prefecture can still eat a full meal with their own hands.
The government is also quite powerful, and there may be bandits and bandits in the territory, but they have a deep background like Gu Xiong, and they are also suppressed by the government to worry about food.
To be fair, Xuanbei Prefecture at that time was generally peaceful and peaceful.
Although the people's life is hard, there is still a little rush.
Even if it's just trying to eat meat three or two times a month?
That's not the head.
How did Xuanbei Prefecture start to go bad?
Oh yes.
It was from the beginning of the Northern Barbarians' large-scale entry into the customs.
The Northern Barbarians captured the four northern counties, killing the mountains and rivers and the heads of the people, and countless Xuanbei people were forced to leave the country and be displaced.
The lives of the people of the four northern counties must have been ruined.
However, because of the influx of a large number of war refugees, the four southern counties have collapsed in prices, public security, and morality...... The days of peace and happiness are gone.
Even if the Northern Barbarians have been driven back to the grassland by them now, the vitality lost in Xuanbei Prefecture cannot be recovered in three days or two days.
So how did the Northern Barbarians cross the Yongming Pass?
Oh yes.
It was because Huo Qing, the king of Zhenbei, was stuck in the bottleneck of the second-grade and first-grade grand masters, and the longevity was over, so he made a desperate bet and took the momentum of the northern barbarians to the south, and played a big game of chess with the ninety-five lord who sat high above the capital!
Since ancient times, monarchs and ministers have been suspicious.
Like the king of Zhenbei, who has such high merits as the master, and has been running the northern Xinjiang for decades, and is a general with deep roots, it is common for the monarch to be feared.
The previous champion Hou Huoyun died in the Tianji Grassland.
Huo Hongye, the major marshal of the contemporary Zhenbei Army, entered Beijing for six years.
This is just the basic operation of the monarch to weaken the ministers.
If it's a different time.
Huo Qing may not dare to persecute the imperial court like this.
The imperial court would not necessarily be so persecuted by Huo Qing.
In the final analysis, sealing Huo Qing as the king of Zhenbei and stabilizing the situation in northern Xinjiang is just drinking to quench your thirst.
Now the king of Zhenbei is a great master, and the tail is not lost, and the headache is still the people in power in the court.
Not coincidentally.
The boundaries of heaven and earth will be opened.
Kyushu is in turmoil.
The neighborhood is restless.
Huo Qing dared to make a desperate bet.
The imperial court did not dare to attack it directly, so it could only focus on appeasement.
In a word, the dire situation in Xuanbei Prefecture is just a prelude to the opening of the boundary between heaven and earth.
In a sense.
He Zhang Chu is also a beneficiary of this prelude.
In the past, Han Baohu, Bu Feng and others in the Qinglong Gang of Jintian Mansion were the personal soldiers of the county soldier Cao Lu Andi.
And Lu Andi is the scum swept out by Huo Hongye's return to northern Xinjiang and the rectification of the Zhenbei Army.
Including the county thief Lord Cao Wang, who was replaced by Hou Juntang back then, was also implicated by Huo Hongye's rectification of the Zhenbei Army, so he took the initiative to "retire from illness".
If there was no game between Lu Andi and that Lord Wang.
Zhang Chu didn't sit in the position of the hall master of the Black Tiger Hall so quickly.
If Hou Juntang did not take the seat of Lord Wang.
Zhang Chu didn't break away from the Qinglong Gang so quickly and set up his own Quadruple Gang.
Including the back.
If there were no Northern barbarian soldiers in the city, Zhang Chu had to give up Jintianfu and go away to Beiyin County.
With his squatting temperament at home, he estimates that he will be the earth overlord in Jintianfu again, so that he can no longer hide or shack, and then he will expand outward.
So.
Naturally, there will be no Taiping Society and Beiping League.
Even if he opens the sea of qi and flies to the sky, it will be postponed for many years...... With his easy-going and hard-working temperament back then, if he hadn't been persecuted by so many external forces later, and if he practiced peacefully and steadily by himself, even with the help of his gluttonous body, it would have taken him ten or even twenty years to get to this point.
It's just a possibility!
After all, different circumstances, different lives, he has gone through this road now, it does not mean that he will be able to go through another road.
Although Zhang Chu didn't want this "opportunity".
These encounters will not bring back those who died.
But he has always admitted that he is indeed a product of the times creating heroes.
He's not special.
Even if he has memories of a different time and space.
Even if he has the golden finger of a gluttonous body.
He's still not special.
If someone else stands in his current position, as long as he chooses well, he can achieve his current achievements, or even do better than him!
After all, he wasn't ruthless enough.
There are no big ambitions.
And it wasn't until now that Zhang Chu suddenly woke up to what he thought was actually just a small wave on the great waves of the times.
Looking at the capital from afar, I felt the huge public opinion over the capital.
Zhang Chu suddenly felt small.
Be in awe.
Feel excited, too!
You can't go on like this anymore.
The great waves of the times are indeed irresistible.
But I don't want to be that duckweed anymore!
Even if it can't be a 10,000-ton giant ship that crosses the stormy waves.
I also want to be the tide maker of Bolang!
......
Capital.
The Universe Palace is 100,000 acres large, and the Sun and Moon Hall is nine feet high.
Emperor Qiming, the fourth emperor of Dali, wears a square flat sky crown, wears a red flame nine dragon crown clothes, sits high on the dragon chair, his thin body is hidden in a dense golden halo, looking up from His Royal Highness, but can only see a towering figure like a hundred zhang Buddha, the celebrant eunuch standing on the eight steps of the dragon chair, compared with the towering figure, just like an ant standing at the feet of the giant.
His Royal Highness and the princes, divided into two classes, civil and military, stood with their hands down.
And when he looked down from the temple, he looked like a dragon, and counted three hundred.
According to the official system of Dali "Fan Jingsi civil and military ministry, the five grades have been enshrined and enshrined officials, foreign officials, supervising the imperial history, Dr. Taichang, and daily court visits", His Royal Highness's three hundred people, the lowest is also the sea of six grades!
So many powerful warriors who can collapse a thing with a fart gathered, but the atmosphere was as clean as a child's school, and no one's coercion swept through the hall.
Even the three princes and nine qings who stood in front of the civil and military forces had a peaceful breath like a harmless neighbor of humans and animals.
"If you have something to do, you have nothing to do!"
The eunuch sang loudly, and his sharp voice pulled a little creepy in the empty Sun and Moon Palace.
The eunuch's singing had just fallen.
Under the hall, there was an old man with a large skeleton wearing a vermilion python robe, holding a court wat in his hand, and said in a sonorous and powerful voice: "Chen Ranlin, please put the governor of the Quartet again, divide the towns into eight states, and return the four seas to Jingping and peace in all directions!"
"Minister, second!"
"Minister Cai Ji, second!"
"Chen Wenyue, seconded ......"
The old man's voice fell, and the servants in the hall were like clouds.
However, most of the ministers who are in the middle of the civil and military classes are echoing.
Several old men who are in the front of the civil and military classes.
It's not half-squinted, like sleepy-eyed and hazy, and hasn't woken up yet,
It is the eyes to the nose, the nose to the heart, a posture that cannot be heard or seen.
After the echoes of the second call one after another, more than a third of the ministers in the hall stood behind the gray-haired old man.
A long silence ensued.
I don't know how long it took, after the dense golden light on the hall, a faint voice finally came: "Quasi!"
