Chapter 31: A new chapter, a new start
In the seventh year of Yuan Zheng.
Donghu rebelled, most of the Liaodong troops attacked it, and all the Donghu tribes were killed who were taller than the wheels, and the Liaodong Zhuhu were both shocked and frightened, and treated them very respectfully.
The people of Langya County and Jiaobei County of the Qingzhou Thorn History Department were revolted, and the month was pacified.
In the eighth year of Yuanzheng.
The mountains plundered the Han land, the three armies went out to strangle, the mountains and rivers of the ancient Yue land wept blood, the Yue Yi begged to surrender to the emperor and did not allow it, and the more Yi did not come back for three years.
Yuan Zheng nine years.
The Yue razed was not leveled, Dawan rebelled, and most of the Western Regions escorted troops to attack it, which lasted four months to pacify, and the Dawan victims were thirteen, and the countries were subdued.
The exiles of the Jizhou Thorn History Department rose up, gathered 100,000 people, and pacified in March.
Yuan Zheng ten years.
The emperor was headed by the king of Yuzhang, commanding Yuzhang County, Yuzhang Kingdom, Huiji County, and Yue Kingdom, a total of 100,000 land and water troops, expelling the Nanban, and the Lingnan River was blocked by corpses.
There is an earthquake and locust plague in the pass, and chaos is numerous, and the more people who sit in the law, the more prisoners belong to them.
In the eleventh year of Yuan Zheng.
Thousands of Hun cavalry invaded Kangju, most of the Western Regions protected Chang'an, the emperor was shaken, it was ordered that the Western Regions was mostly escorted by 30,000 soldiers, and Liaodong was mostly escorted by 50,000 soldiers to the north to find the Xiongnu, the Xiongnu did not dare to restrain the front of the Han army, and the escape was unsuccessful, and the Han army was not allowed to go out of the fortress three times, and the emperor stopped.
The mountains are more and more peaceful, and the people of Yangzhou Thorn History have changed a lot, and it will be decided in half a year.
……
In the twelfth year of the Yuan Dynasty, there was neither internal civil upheaval nor external invasion, and the Han Dynasty seemed to have entered the peak heyday.
King Nanyi Dongou said privately after drinking: "The Han Dynasty is really too domineering, but the Dongou Kingdom is not strong enough, otherwise I must teach the emperor of the Han Dynasty a lesson." ”
As a result, the wall has ears, and these words actually leaked out of the rumors, and the Han envoy came to Dongou Kingdom alone, and reprimanded him in the main hall of the Dongou King's Palace: "Dongou King, a barbarian state like you was born a barbarian like a beast.
was able to get the canonization of Zhu Xiazi, so he finally took off his beast form, put on silk and satin, and took on the appearance of a human.
Isn't that the grace of recreation?
You should kneel on the ground every day and pray day and night in gratitude to the Emperor and the Son of Heaven.
I didn't expect you to say such a thing, what a wolf's heart and lungs.
Dawan was disrespectful, the Han army broke through his royal capital, killed thirty percent of his population, and the head of the king of Dawan spread throughout the Western Regions, and finally hung on the gate of Chang'an City.
Donghu dared to jump off the beam, and now he has been killed, and Ling is still alive, shouldn't he thank the Son of Heaven for his grace? ”
The king of Dongou was angry and wanted to kill the Han envoy, but he was killed by the courtiers of the Dongou kingdom, and they prayed and said, "Honorable Han envoy, please intercede for us to the great and supreme princes."
Dongou Kingdom does not dare to have the slightest dissatisfaction with the Han Dynasty, that is the stupidity of the king, kill him, this is our respect for the Son of Heaven. ”
The Han envoy came to Dongou alone, but when he left, he was sent to him by the courtiers of the Manchu Kingdom.
……
Chang'an City, Changle Palace.
Emperor Liu Dan listened to the deeds reported to him by his close ministers about the Dongou Kingdom, and couldn't help laughing after listening to it: "The prestige of the Han Dynasty has reached such a point, this must be an unprecedented deed.
My wish has been fulfilled, and I should go to the ancestors of the Han Dynasty to pay tribute to them.
By the way, go and summon the master to me, I have something to command. ”
Not long after, the master craftsman hurriedly walked into the Changle Palace, Liu Dan said with great interest: "The master craftsman, such as today's Siyi guest clothes, Haiyan River is clear, the Han is thriving, I have heard, there is no magnificent palace, can not show the majesty of the Son of Heaven, Changle Palace and Weiyang Palace are too old, I want to build an unprecedented luxury palace in the west of Chang'an, in order to show the majesty of the prosperous world, so I will call you." ”
The master craftsman was shocked when he heard this, and then he was overjoyed, his family was an ancestral master craftsman, specializing in building those gorgeous palaces and mausoleums for the royal families, so far, the strongest ancestor was to build a mausoleum for Qin Shi Huang.
Although I knew from the day I started to build it that I would definitely be buried in the end, it was worth it!
The master craftsman said excitedly: "Your Majesty, the minister's family has a set of ancestral palace drawings, which have been published since the Qin Dynasty.
Your Majesty, you know, the First Emperor thought that his merits were great, so he wanted to build a towering palace complex and named it Afang Palace, but the Afang Palace was not built yet, and the violent Qin perished directly.
Afang Palace is actually a change in this set of drawings, and the Han family has been adding magnificent palaces to this set of drawings for a hundred years.
Chen can now say that if this palace complex can be presented, it will be an unprecedented palace complex that can shock everyone! ”
Liu Dan never expected that the master craftsman would have this surprise for him, "How does the palace group compare with my Changle Palace?" ”
The master craftsman said proudly: "Let the minister tell you something."
It is a hundred miles long from east to west, and if you ride in the magnificent imperial chariot, the palace people can see an attic after walking ten steps.
You stand on the high star-picking platform, looking at the dark shadow in the distance, is that a mountain?
When I got closer, I realized that it was an empty bridge connection, and the attic flew into the air, and there were many such flying bridges, just like a rainbow in the sky.
On a sunny day, there is a sun in the sky and a sun on the ground, which turns out to be the brilliance reflected by countless glasses.
There is no woman in the world who does not like it, there is no scholar in the world who does not admire it, there is no nobleman in the world who does not admire it, and only you can build it. ”
The master made a wave of boasting, quite like the description of Du Mu Afang Gongfu in later generations, and the emperor Liu Dan who listened to it was already excited.
"I'm going to build this palace!"
This was Liu Dan's only thought, he thought about it for a while, and said, "I want to name this palace complex 'Changsheng'!"
I will give you whatever you want, and I must build me a palace of great craftsmanship. ”
The master craftsman naturally bowed down to receive the order, and walked out of the hall with great interest.
……
"300 million money?!"
Sang Hongyang heard the master craftsman's report to the palace group, only felt that his hands were trembling, just as the master craftsman was joking, the Han court officials' annual money and goods could not reach 30 million yuan, and it cost 300 million yuan to build a palace?
Sang Hongyang said angrily: "When Emperor Xiaowu fought the Mobei War, not counting the reward after the victory, the military expenditure was only 100 million yuan!"
Over the years, His Majesty has made great martial arts, and the military expenditure plus rewards is no more than a billion dollars.
You tell me now that it will cost 300 million yuan to build the palace?
It must be you, a traitor, who wants to fill your pockets. ”
Unexpectedly, the master craftsman was not in a hurry, Shi Shiran said: "The doctor doesn't have to be in such a hurry, naturally it's not 300 million yuan." ”
Before Sang Hongyang could relax, the master craftsman continued: "300 million yuan is the cost of building Afang Palace during the violent Qin, and what the subordinates built for His Majesty is far more than the magnificent miracle of Afang Palace, 300 million money is far from enough, and one billion yuan is about the same."
Moreover, the levy is about more than 500,000 people, and it must not be enough to rely on Guanzhong alone, and it still needs a lot of support from doctors. ”
Sang Hongyang was completely speechless when he heard this, he only felt dizzy and dizzy in front of him, and his eyes were black.
The problem is that the treasury is already empty, and the money for the war over the years is still obtained by him by demolishing the east wall and repairing the west wall, and the official camp of salt, iron and wine has naturally been completely received into the hands of the imperial court, which basically monopolizes the purchase and sale of all kinds of goods.
The master craftsman stood up and saluted Sang Hongyang and said with a smile: "The doctor doesn't need to be so anxious, this billion money will naturally not be needed in a year, you have plenty of time to raise it."
The subordinate left first, and asked the doctor to raise money, which is enough for only 100 million yuan this year. ”
After speaking, he walked out, and Sang Hongyang's face was extremely ugly.
Is there a way to make money?
Yes!
Do you dare to use it?
Can't!
At the beginning, Wang San wanted to kill the county commander, and came to Chang'an City to assassinate him, and finally Wang San was taken away by Luo Sheng, but there is more than one person in the world?
How many people want to kill him, I can't count it at all, and it is not until the past few years that it has gradually stopped, and if he helps the emperor to make a lot of money, I really don't know how long he can live.
But......
Sang Hongyang looked at the seal ribbon on his body, and then he was the prime minister of the gold seal and purple ribbon!
……
The news that the emperor wanted to build a palace spread, and ordinary people may not be aware of anything, but the nobles, officials, and students knew too well that a group of more upright officials and students wrote against it, and some of these letters came from the county and some from Chang'an, and the remarks were roughly the same.
"How strong the country is on the outside, but it is gradually emptying on the inside.
How tired and tired the people of the Great Han are, they should be allowed to rest.
Now is the time to overcome the difficulties together, so what is the use of building a palace?
The county in which the minister was located began to fall into decay, and was not as prosperous as it had been, unable to draw enough conscription and pay more taxes.
Your Majesty, please think about it carefully, and I wish you the great light, and may you have a long and lasting health and life. ”
These letters made Liu Dan very dissatisfied, in the past few years, the Han Dynasty was prosperous, and the Han Dynasty was vast and rich, how could it not even be possible to build a palace.
————
In the twelfth year of the Yuan Dynasty.
Shang said: "Han is the ancestor of Zhuxia, the lord of the world, the territory opened up by Emperor Xiaowu, several times more than the previous generation, I have been performing for 12 years, I dare not say that I have great merit, but I am trembling, and I dare not lose half an inch of my ancestors."
The great Han Dynasty shook the barbarians, the magnificent territory, a decree, the Yiyue is obeyed, I carry forward, build the palace and live forever, the princes come to congratulate, the Han Tianwei, and the Quartet. ”
Zhu Xianliang Fang Zhengjin said: "Your Majesty's great achievements, carry forward the ambition, but the years of conquest, the people are tired, almost to the sea is full of strange things, build a palace as a palace, spend a lot, please Your Majesty be careful." ”
Shang Buhe, said: "The territory of the tyrannical Qin, the domain is only 5,000 miles, the people are only 20 million, but the north is the Xiongnu, the south is a hundred Yue, through the ditch, the imperial mausoleum, even the Great Wall, my Han land is thousands of miles, the population is half a billion, can not be a palace?"
How ridiculous! ”
Zhu Xianliang Fangzheng said again: "The world of filial piety can be carried out, but the world of today is not." ”
He was angry and said, "Those who ridicule him deserve death." ”
