Chapter 165: First Entry into the Forest

The dense forest stone road, compared with the luxury and richness that Liu Cang saw in the North Palace, the road at the entrance of Shanglin Yuan is more quiet.

The road that can be used for three carriages in parallel is paved with pebbles, lined with tall evergreen trees, and at the end of the road, a huge rock is faintly visible surrounded by two welcoming pines that are more than seven meters long.

At the end of the road, a huge stone is the center, forming a turntable-like circular road, and the boulder blocks the way, and it is difficult to see the true face of the scenery behind it.

Bi Lan, the tenth permanent servant, heard that Liu Hong once asked him to mint coins, which was originally the function of the lieutenant of Shui Heng, and it was not surprising to say that he was also in charge of Liu Cang in Shanglin Yuan.

And Liu Cang's perception of Bi Lan: This is a capable eunuch.

I think that the bronze sculptures in the North Palace, the delicate mechanisms, the laying of the waterway system, etc., are all from him.

The movable spitting toad may be difficult to understand, but the overturned car he invented is still being used in some parts of the south two thousand years later.

A rollover is a waterwheel, but this is not a round waterwheel that scoops water, but a keel waterwheel.

Shaped like a keel, it is continuous and extensive, and can pass through several miles of waterways. Climbing mountains and crossing hurdles, the leaf plate is driven along the trough position, and the water is circulated to deliver the water to the place where it is needed.

It can be cranked by hand, can be pedaled, can be driven by livestock, between non-mountains, children can also be driven, during which the keel blade has been the prototype of the chain, involving mechanics, mechanisms, linkage and other processes.

It is possible to say that Hua Tuo has developed surgical techniques two thousand years later.

The eunuch named Bi Lan could not be imitated by many of his inventions two thousand years later, and the mechanics of the mechanism involved in this overturn were also widely used in various fields two thousand years later.

Although he hasn't seen Bi Lan yet, Liu Cang has always had a certain respect for this guy.

Of course, for the time being, it's just a certain respect. After all, Liu Hong is still alive, and this guy is also a tyrannical and ruthless Shaofu servant.

It is no exaggeration to say that this Bi Lan's little head will twitch one day, and it will be a matter of minutes to make some products brought by the industrial revolution.

It's a pity, as long as Liu Hong doesn't die, Bi Lan's current head probably doesn't have so much time to draw to a serious place.

"Since you have Bi Changshi's orders, do you want to go back to the palace, or stay in this Shanglin Garden?" Walking on the forest road, the collision of horses' hooves and pebbles rattled, Liu Cang asked Mu Qi, who was beside him with a respectful posture.

"Back to my lord, the villain has been in this forest garden for half his life, and the palace holy land is really a little strange to the villain, so I hope to stay and serve the adult." Mu Qi smiled bitterly, and didn't dare to take it in front of Liu Cang.

The Han clan relatives are like that now, but in front of Liu Cang, not only is Zhang Rang standing behind him, but Bi Lan seems to have a very good impression of him.

Bi Lan specially sent someone to explain Mu Qi's good life earlier, and Mu Qi originally asked if he needed to make some stumbling blocks for Liu Cang, and was even reprimanded by the other party.

Seeing that the ancestor was planning to cede power, Xu Liu Cang was tossed, and Mu Qi was now treating Liu Cang with the attitude of dealing with all the permanent servants.

"Well, from then on, you will assist Yuan Cheng in managing the affairs of Shanglin Yuan, how it was before, and what will be it in the future, discuss everything with Yuan Cheng." Liu Cang instructed Mu Qi.

Mu Qi looked sideways at Dian Wei, and saw that Dian Wei was tall and strong, with fierce eyebrows and eyes, and the bearing of a battlefield general.

When Mu Qi secretly had a headache about how to assist this Yuan Cheng, Bian Ji spoke out on the side at the right time.

"I'm just here, and the things in the garden are under the guidance of the lieutenant worker."

Bian asked out loud, Mu Qi hurriedly said that he didn't dare, and then looked at Liu Cang and Dian Wei, and saw that there was nothing unusual about the two, and their eyes flowed, as if they had understood.

"Is this girl okay?" Mu Qi's face was different, and Liu Cang asked lightly.

"Back to my lord, there is no need, there are many palace maids and female officials in the Jianzhang Palace in the garden, and the nobles and concubines in the palace will also come to this small residence to play. It is more appropriate to have female officials here. Mu Qi shook his head and replied, bowing to Dian Wei and Bian to show respect.

"What do you do on weekdays in Shanglin Yuan?" Without mentioning the Bian family, Liu Cang asked Mu Qi again.

"We are not busy with the affairs of the forest garden, except for the spring outing and autumn hunting season, His Majesty and the courtiers need to be arranged to hunt here, and on weekdays, we will hunt some wild animals and send them to the official order for the palace to eat."

"The wild animals cultivated in the garden are mostly assigned to work in each village, and the wild deer needed by His Majesty during the reward are also hunted by the village hunters. Hunting the beast is a bit troublesome, and it should be counted as a more important thing in the garden. ”

"Jianzhang Palace is maintained normally, and the temple workers, agricultural officials, and workshops are under the control of the Shaofu, and they have been separated from Shanglin Yuan in the early years."

"However, the originally abandoned Shanglin Imperial Prison may be reactivated because of the detention of Yellow Turban prisoners.

。 Mu Qi elaborated, and the more he said, the more complicated it became, Liu Cang frowned and interrupted.

"Let's talk about what we need to pay attention to in the near future."

"Hmm.

。 The supply of wild things in the palace cannot be stopped, and the Yellow Turban prisoners need to be trained and screened, and sent to the villages of the military camp, which can be serfs or animal pens. Muzi pondered for a moment's time, then hesitated.

"Besides, before the adults joined the company, Bi Changshou had instructed that this dog supervisor should train more hunting dogs. The villain was originally going to buy some small dog cubs from Qinling after the year, or there was a chance to attract His Majesty's attention. Muzzi lowered his voice.

Liu Cang originally learned some about Shanglin Yuan from Cai Yong, and after Mu Qi kept telling it, Liu Cang knew more about it.

Shanglin Yuan was built in the Qin Dynasty at the earliest, and then because of the war, its inner palace was destroyed, Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty built Chang'an Shanglin Garden again, and then was destroyed again because of Wang Mang's uprising and usurpation.

Until the Eastern Han Dynasty, the successive dynasties circled the scope of the forest garden again in Luoyang, and the palace and landscape were built in many ways, but the glory in it was far less than before.

And this realm is really not just an emperor's amusement park.

Originally, Shanglin Yuan ordered eight and twelve lieutenants, military camps, sacrificial offerings, weapon casting, war horse ranches, edicts, poultry and animal palaces, slave prison camps, breeding pen animals, agricultural officials' public fields, hunting dog prisons, training soldiers in the north and south, and so on.

From playing to supplying vegetables, fruits, and meat ingredients in the palace, from prisons to bronze and porcelain firing workshops, from forging armor to training military camps for army sailors.

Logistics, baggage, food, war horse armament, and elite troops are self-contained.

It covers an area of almost one county, with tens of thousands of soldiers and more than 10,000 households.

This place can be used as a large rear area for the emperor to recuperate, and this safari is really only a trivial function.

Alas, it should have been a glorious place, it should have been.

Probably because Liu Hong's side promoted the Shaofu permanent attendants, who originally only had one or two, to more than a dozen people at once.

At this time, Lin Yuan was no longer so unified in the division of power among the ten permanent servants headed by Zhang Rang.

Liu Cang's Lin Yuan Ling now has only one captain left under his command, among which the public land, the supply house for making utensils, the temple workers for forging war preparations, the horse farm for shepherding war horses, the barracks for training soldiers, etc., have all been divided by the ten permanent attendants.

Either move out of the Upper Forest Garden, or belong independently in the Upper Forest Garden.

After turning around, Liu Cang became a person who watched the garden and guarded the palace. The main function is to provide game meat for His Majesty the Emperor.

Well, it's also quite worry-free, to put it bluntly, as long as you don't let the palace cut off the game and precious fruits, the emperor arranges the hunting grounds when he is hunting, and at other times he likes to do what he likes.

No, it seems that Liu Hong should have become interested in hunting dogs again, Bi Lan had planned to raise more dogs earlier, maybe he could show his face in front of His Majesty.

Liu Cang complained in his heart, this Shanglin Garden is simply an infinitely expanded version of his deer garden, and it is really no wonder that Liu Hong lacks interest in his deer garden.

The reason why Liu Cang was given a Shanglin Yuan order is that Liu Cang's deer garden can't be tossed out of the hall, since he likes to raise livestock? simply let Liu Canglai be the director of the zoo for him.

The forest road goes out for half a mile, bypassing the mountains and rocks blocking the road, and the things in front of you suddenly open up.

"My lord, this is the place where His Majesty will station his horse during his safari, which is convenient for the garrison to be immediate, and it is idle on weekdays, so pay attention to cleaning up."

The open space the size of a football field, surrounded by dense forests, is high and extends to the northwest, and the terrain is gently lowered, and you can see the undulating mountains.

And when Mu Qi introduced the open space in front of Liu Cang, Liu Cang's eyes were stunned and looked into the distance.

Between the mountains and clouds, Liu Cang faintly saw a palace complex surrounded by mountains, and the building complex was also huge from a distance, like a hidden foggy heavenly palace, like a fog and illusion, and like a mirage.

"That.

。 Stretching out his fingers, Liu Cang didn't know how to ask.

"My lord, there is His Majesty's Palace, Jianzhang Palace. It is also the place where the adults are in charge, the villain has prepared the carriage, and the waiters, female officials, and guards of the Jianzhang Palace are waiting for the adults there. Mu Qi lowered his head and said in the direction of Liu Cang's finger.
