After the autumn, Luoyang City gradually became lively, people from all walks of life gathered, and countless businessmen gathered.

Everywhere is lit up and crowded.

More than ten years of stability and great development have brought the wealth and prosperity of Luoyang City.

Compared with when he first entered the city, the size of Luoyang's urban area has expanded by one-third, and the dirty, messy and poor slums and alleys have now become a bustling commercial district.

The castle has become a cultural center, and Luxiang is still a wealthy area, but it has begun to spread and expand to the castle.

In the periphery of the original urban area, a circle of real civilian residential areas was added, although it was not so luxurious, but it was also neatly aligned, showing the supreme momentum of the capital of the Tianhan Kingdom.

Every newcomer to the city is amazed all the way from the moment they see this magnificent city from afar.

They all boast of being well-informed, having traveled to countless countries and cities, but they have never seen such a prosperous, beautiful and rich place as Luoyang.

Even if the people here are just ordinary people, they also have the cultural heritage and graceful demeanor of a big country, and they are polite but not humble or arrogant.

The houses in the city are like all kinds of shops, and the streets are full of red men and green women, full of smiles, and it is a city full of happiness at a glance.

Here, you can buy almost every thing in the world that you can think of and eat all the delicious food you have never seen before.

It is home to beautiful people from all over the world, speaks a variety of languages, and is a metropolis that brings together all kinds of cultures.

Liu Zhi issued an edict that the whole country celebrated for three days, and the imperial court funded the cooking of food and the provision of fine wine, and the whole world celebrated.

Of course, in Luoyang City, the celebration lasted longer, almost for a month, so that all kinds of businesses made a lot of money and smiled from ear to ear.

Liu Zhi's own birthday is not far from his mother, but he doesn't plan to celebrate it this year, and it will already be a lot of work and money to hold the queen mother's birthday.

After all, this time he was bleeding profusely, and most of the money was taken out of his private treasury, an astonishing amount.

Over the years, he has made a fortune, and his wealth has grown faster than the national treasury.

The foreign trade of liquor and cane sugar alone has allowed him to achieve a skyrocketing fortune, and he has paid for scientific and technological research in recent years.

On the third day of September, it was the official birthday of the Empress Dowager Yun, in addition to the banquet of the wife of Yong'an Palace, a grand and grand banquet was also held in the Chongde Palace.

Envoys from various countries and envoys from all over the world gathered together, and the magnificent hall was full of people, and even the square outside was already full.

"Dangdangdang......"

The bell of the corner tower rang, and the distant bell rang throughout the imperial city.

Dahan ritual music has a strict system, different bells and drums represent different etiquette, and it has been a compulsory subject since childhood.

As long as the music sounded, the Han people knew what it meant, and at this moment, the entire Jingshi seemed to have received the same signal and began to carnival.

"I wish the Queen Mother a long life and long live the Han!"

The uniform call resounded in the sky, and even the birds were so startled that they hovered in the air, which was breathtaking.

A plate of delicacies full of color and fragrance is presented in front of people's eyes in the hands of a team of slender palace maids.

Graceful dancers danced to the delight of the guests, and the wines on the table were different colors, from amber white wine, rose red wine to milky white mead......

Of course, the most intoxicating thing is the osmanthus autumn brew, the rich aroma of the wine makes people drunk without drinking, and can't help but indulge in it.

In the main hall, the Queen Mother was dressed in a snow-blue dress, smiling, but Liu Zhi was not wearing a big dress, only wearing a deep coat with red and black edges, handsome and extraordinary.

Next to him is the eldest princess Liu Hua in a red dress, who does not need too much embellishment of fat powder, she is peerless and magnificent.

This made many foreign princes and envoys present feel like Xiao Jiujiu in their hearts, thinking about taking this opportunity to form an in-law with the Han Dynasty.

So as to get the protection or closeness of the Han, in short, there is no harm in all benefits.

Liu Shuo, the king of the plains, and Liu Kui, the king of the Bohai Sea, as the emperor's younger brothers, naturally had a high status on such occasions.

Liu Kui talked and laughed happily, toasted the queen mother and the emperor from time to time, and also had frequent contacts with the emperors and ministers of the clan, and seemed to be at ease.

But Liu Shuo seemed to stay out of the matter, holding a wine glass and burying his head in drink, seeing Liu Zhizhi shake his head.

In the past, Liu Kui was stubborn, which gave him a headache, but now the two brothers have lost one, and it has become Liu Shuo who worries.

In short, he seems to owe these two brothers, and there is no one to worry about.

Forget it, for the sake of their mother's face that used to treat their mother well, and also for the face of the real Liu Zhi who was replaced by himself, he didn't bother to bother with these two brothers.

Out of sight is clear, Liu Zhi indifferently looked away, and talked happily with Yuan Xu, who came to toast.

This grand banquet was hosted by Fang Zhi, the head of the Inner Palace, but another person also made great contributions, this is Xun Shuang, the waiter of Zhongshu Province who has been with the emperor in recent years.

Xun Shuang, as the only leader of the Han Dynasty, has always enjoyed a high reputation in the court, and was originally released as a remote county commander of the Northern Xiongnu.

But three years later, he made remarkable achievements and was greatly appreciated by the Zhenbei general Huangfu Gui, who wrote to Liu Zhi and praised him.

At the beginning of his tenure, the Northern Xiongnu had just been recovered, and the border was very uneven, and the Northern Xiongnu kings who had fled to the Far East colluded with a group of local suspicious Huns.

From time to time, they raid the border and create all kinds of chaos, bringing infinite suffering to the lives of the people on the border.

The problem of governance here is a huge challenge, mainly because the local Huns cannot return to the Han Dynasty.

In this case, even if it is a talented Xun Shuang, it is even more difficult to make a career.

At that time, many people were secretly waiting to see the jokes, and some people even thought that the emperor actually didn't like Xun's son at all and deliberately gave him problems.

But Xun Shuang himself didn't care and happily went to work.

In just three years, his achievements are impressive.

not only cooperated with General Huangfu to defend the border from wind and rain, but also allowed the locals to have a sense of identity with the rule of the Han Dynasty in a short period of time.

This achievement surprised everyone.

The reason is very simple, no matter which nationality it is, who doesn't want to live a stable and prosperous life, and who doesn't want to sing and dance?

As long as they quickly double their quality of life, and then arrest and kill a few insidious elements who fanned the flames, they will be half quiet in no time.

Then mobilize the local people to offer a reward, and whoever can report those dissidents can take up official positions and govern the people together with the Han officials.

In the face of huge interests, no one would be loyal to a fugitive king, after all, this place belonged to another tribe back then, and was not a descendant of King Huyan.

He respects the customs and culture of the locals, and does not force them to change, but takes a subtle approach.

Moreover, he took advantage of the local cattle and sheep grazing, opened a wool felt workshop, and personally looked for a market, so that their lives flourished.

Three years later, when Liu Zhi sent him back to Beijing to serve as the waiter of Zhongshu Province, no one had a single objection.

At this time, everyone was shocked to realize that the emperor really favored him, the leader of the three yuan and the first, often the most difficult environment, and the most reflective of people's talents and abilities.

It is said that when he left the border of the Northern Xiongnu, the people sent him off for ten miles, and they were reluctant to give him up, treating him as if they were their relatives.

It can be seen that Xun Shuang's ability is indeed extraordinary.

Xun Shuang, who returned to Luoyang, the capital of Beijing, although his position was not high, became a close minister who could serve with the emperor.

Soon Liu Zhi asked him to take on the task of drafting ordinary edicts, Xun Shuang has a good handwriting, neat and capable, and the writing is concise, never dragging mud and water, which is very in line with Liu Zhi's preferences.

Today's Zhongshu Province is no longer only responsible for the liaison between the inner court and the outer court, but they also assume some decision-making and staff functions, which are becoming more and more important.

In the past few years by the emperor's side, Xun Shuang seems to be very quiet, studying all day long, and at first glance it seems that there are no proud achievements.

But careful people found that he was staying with the emperor for longer and longer, and his relationship with the emperor was getting closer and closer.

This state banquet celebrated by the whole world is so important, Fang Zhi, as the host, although meticulous, but in the end, he is old and already a little in good spirits.

In fact, the main things are handled by Xun Shuang, and his ability is obvious to all.

The grand banquet lasted from morning to evening, and the envoys and guests of various countries enjoyed countless wonderful programs.

It was late at night, and although the banquet in the palace had been dispersed, the city of Luoyang was brilliantly lit, and there were people everywhere, a city that never sleeps.

The three-day and three-night carnival brought this grand event to a climax and made everyone remember this unparalleled celebration.

The name of wealth and strength of the Han Dynasty spread to all directions with the departing envoys, and also raised the prestige of the Han Kingdom to a higher level.

Just after the celebration ended, several envoys privately asked to see Liu Zhi and proposed to him, hoping to marry the beautiful and noble eldest princess and marry the two countries forever.

This included large countries such as the Kushan Empire and the Rest Empire, as well as smaller states such as Tiaozhi and Lixuan.

But Liu Zhi refused them all, and with the strong posture of the Han now, there was no need for the princess to consolidate diplomatic relations.

What's more, he promised back then that he would never send Anyang to peace.

His daughter, as long as she is happy, is enough, how can she be willing to let her cross the ocean and cross the ocean, and it will be difficult to see each other again in her life.

Even if he went to another country to be a queen, he was unwilling.

Especially in the Rest Empire, the pretentious king, who already had several wives, dared to let the envoys propose to him.

squirting feces and promising to make the princess of the Han Kingdom the queen, who do you think will be rare?

Liu Zhi didn't say anything, and politely declined, but he held a grudge in his heart.

Hum! Dare to abuse his beloved daughter of Liu Zhi, wait and see, one day I will make you pay.

Soon after the celebration, the envoys of various countries began to return one after another, and Deng Yan also came to bid farewell to Liu Zhi and prepared to return to Nanyang.

He planned to take a two-year break, first to build a fleet of steam engines, and then to make an embassy from the sea to Rome on behalf of the emperor.

If all goes well, he will be ready for a second trip to South America when he returns home.

Liu Zhi naturally agreed very much, the two talked about wine and talked at night, this time they separated, and they didn't know what year and month they would see each other again.

After sending Deng Yan away, the princes and kings in the capital division were almost gone, and Liu Shuo couldn't wait to return to his territory as soon as the celebration was over.

Only Liu Kui, the king of Bohai, every time he came to the capital, he would procrastinate and reluctant to leave, relying on the preference of the Empress Dowager Yun, and planned to stay until next spring before leaving.

In the winter of this year, changes were also quietly taking place in the DPRK and China, first the head of the inner government, Fang Zhi, fell ill, Liu Zhi gave him the Marquis of Dongxiang, and rewarded him with some land and property, and allowed him to return to his hometown for retirement.

The candidate to succeed him is Xun Shuang, which was already expected by everyone.

Immediately afterwards, Yin Song, a scholar of the secretary provincial university, returned to his hometown and was succeeded by Chen Fan, who has been more and more valued in the court over the years, and now he has become a member of the first rank and a pillar of the country.

Not long after, the Taifu Ma Rong also returned to his hometown and returned to his hometown, he was indeed old, and before leaving, he recommended his proud protégé Zheng Xuan to serve as the prince's concubine.

The post of Taifu was vacant, and Liu Zhi did not appoint anyone to succeed him.

Gaomi Zheng Xuan is Chinese New Year's Eve six years old today, and the experience in his life is also very legendary.

Although he was born into a family, his family was already in decline when he was born, and he worked in the countryside as a farmer since he was a child, and his family was poor.

He has studied mathematics since he was a child, and has shown an unparalleled superhuman talent in arithmetic.

When Zheng Xuan was sixteen years old, he was not only proficient in Confucian classics, familiar with ancient classics, but also proficient in the study of Wei Wei Fangshu, and could write good articles, and was called a prodigy.

Due to his family's hardship and forced to make a living, at the age of eighteen, he had to go out of the house and serve as a village husband.

Zheng Xuan was diligent and diligent in his office, caring for the orphans, and won praise from the township, and he was soon promoted to become a townsman.

But he was reluctant to make a living as a servant, and devoted himself to research and scholarship.

He took advantage of every opportunity available to him to study hard, and did not go home on his holidays, but went to school to consult his husband on various academic issues.

Zheng Xuan's father was extremely opposed to this, and repeatedly reprimanded and reprimanded, but he still did not change his original intention.

By the age of 21, he had read a wide range of books, not only had a profound foundation in economics, but also was proficient in the study of calendrical numbers and diagrams, as well as actuarial arithmetic.

At that time, Du Mi was the Taishan Taishou, and when he went to Gaomi County to inspect, he saw Zheng Xuan, and thought that he was a rare talent, so he was promoted to the county as an official.

Soon after Zheng Xuan arrived in Beihai County, he resigned from his position as a minister and entered Taixue to teach.

His teacher, the fifth Yuan Xian, was the surname of Jingzhao Pingling at that time, and he was a very learned doctor of scripture.

Zheng Xuan studied scriptures and arithmetic successively, and learned poetry and books from Zhang Gongzu of Dongjun.

He also studied under Chen Qiu and studied.

During this period, he traveled to study in You, He, Yan, and Henan states, visited famous Confucians, and transferred to many teachers.

Zheng Xuan's youth passed in such a hurry and fulfillment.

By the end of his life, Zheng Xuan had become a scholar with deep attainments.

His knowledge is already second to none in Kanto.

When he felt that there was no one to consult with the Kanto scholars anymore, he left his hometown through the relationship of his friend Lu Zhi and traveled thousands of miles to Beijing to become a teacher, worshipping Taifu Ma Rong as a teacher.
