Han Shizu

Chapter 1142 Ru Gong Goes Out of the Mountain
The square in front of the imperial city occupies a very large area. After years of additions and layouts, it is no longer as empty as it used to be. The 99 Panlong columns are arranged according to the order, and the huge square is also divided into several areas.The majesty of the imperial city is also displayed among the carved beams and painted buildings.

Originally, the space was reserved for the expansion of Miyagi, but instead it became a prosperous square, which was used for celebrations, and it was also the best place for Emperor Liu to parade his troops and be close to the people.

In the New Year's Ceremony of the fifth year of the treasure opening, 25 people from Tokyo gathered to see the dragon's face and congratulate the emperor and the court.The huge square was almost full, and the grandeur of the scene also highlighted the value of this royal square.

At this time, Emperor Liu was in the lead, walking slowly, and being in the middle, he really felt the charm of this square. The most intuitive feeling is that it is big.

Gently stroking one of the Panlong Pillars, Liu Chengyou said to Murong Yanchao who was following him: "Compared to expanding the palace, this Prosperous World Square is equally magnificent and can show the might of the sky. What do you think, uncle?"

What else could Murong Yanchao say about this.For a long time, because of the incompatibility between the cramped Tokyo imperial city and the grandeur of Kaifeng, he hoped that Emperor Liu could continue to build the imperial city according to the expansion blueprint of Kaifeng, but Emperor Liu refused.

Now that the square has been remodeled and the space for expansion has been exhausted, Murong Yanchao can only follow Emperor Liu's words: "Your Majesty doesn't love the pomp of palaces, it's really a blessing for all the people in the world!"

After a pause, I couldn't help but add a sentence: "It's just that I have heard a saying that the emperor regards the four seas as his home. If it is not magnificent, there is no prestige, and there is no way to add to future generations. Your Majesty has spent a lot of money to repair Kaifeng. , for the benefit of millions of officials and people, and then allocate money to repair the palace, will anyone dare to criticize it, and no one will criticize it. With the sageness of your majesty, you are not indulging in luxury enjoyment, so why do you hinder the emperor? The city is under normal construction."

Apparently, this has almost become a knot in Emperor Murong's heart, and maybe there is a little bit of obsessive-compulsive disorder, and the incoordination looks really awkward.Of course, after the transformation of the Imperial City Square, the sense of abruptness has disappeared.

Hearing his words, Emperor Liu was still happy, and said: "I think the Kaifeng Palace is already magnificent enough. There are so many buildings and palaces in the palace, and there are still many vacancies. Why do you need to expand it? The layout of Tokyo is already completed, so there is no need to be too perfect. Already!"

"Yes!" Murong Yanchao replied respectfully.

Of course, the Imperial City of Tokyo was actually expanded to the north, but it was not on the scale of Kaifeng's great construction.And if you want to make further improvements, there is also a lot of room for improvement. For example, there are a large number of old palaces and pavilions in the palace that can be rebuilt.Especially the Chongyuan Hall, which is a place for grand ceremonies, even Emperor Liu felt that it was too small.

Looking at him, Liu Chengyou continued: "However, when we arrive in Luoyang, the emperor can rest assured to do it!"

Hearing this, Murong Yanchao's old eyes suddenly lit up.Seeing this, Liu Chengyou hurriedly took another dose of vaccination, and said: "However, we still need to control money and food, ensure quality, and cherish the power of the people. I have the intention of restoring glory, but we should be cautious about wasting people and money, and don't arouse public resentment!"

"I must remember His Majesty's instructions!" Murong Yanchao said immediately.

In this regard, Murong Yanchao is extremely confident. After all, the large projects in Kaifeng back then were all presided over, with successful cases and rich experience.Emperor Liu also believed in this, and the problems encountered in the reconstruction process, I believe that with Murong Yanchao's identity and means, they can all be solved.

Therefore, Emperor Liu put on an air of grandeur: "Uncle Huang is doing business, I don't worry!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your trust!"

"It seems that Li Qing's body is recovering well!" The one who accompanied Emperor Liu was Li Gu, Duke of Ru.

As one of the 24 ministers, Li Gu is also highly respected in the court, but in the past few years, due to physical reasons, he has been recuperating.When he returned to Tokyo from Jiangnan, Emperor Liu once worried about losing another hero.

Fortunately, after a few years of recuperation after becoming famous, Li Gu's wind arthralgia was greatly relieved.When the symptoms were severe, not only the limb pain was unbearable, but it was even difficult to stand up. Now, he can travel with Emperor Liu.

"We need to rely more on His Majesty's grace to take care of us, so we can get relief!" Although he is old, but in good spirits, Li Gu clasped his hands and said with a smile.

After waving his hands, Emperor Liu sighed and said, "Heal when you are sick, and cure when you are sick. This is the merit of the doctor's recuperation. If my blessing is really effective, there will not be so many heroes who have died forever."

Obviously, Emperor Liu thought of those deceased heroes Su Jiu again.However, his mentality was quickly adjusted, and he put a smile on his face again, and said to Li Gu: "Since your body has recovered, can you return to work?"

Upon hearing this, Li Gu immediately understood that it was Emperor Liu who was going to use him again.After thinking for a while, Li Gu cupped his hands and said: "As long as Your Majesty doesn't regard the subject as old and sick, I am willing to serve the imperial court!"

There is one thing about Li Gu that Emperor Liu appreciates more, that is, he is never pretentious.Listening to his statement, he said with satisfaction: "If such a great talent as Qing lives at home and spends the rest of his life, it will be a great loss for the court."

As he said that, Liu Chengyou directly expressed his thoughts: "I intend to take Qing as the Yin of Kaifeng!"

Hearing this, Li Gu was a little surprised, and couldn't help but said: "Isn't Kaifeng Yin in charge of King Xu?"

Xu Wang Liu Chengyun was conferred the title of Julu Wang Jue. This cousin of Emperor Liu and the adopted son of Gao Zu can be said to be the highest-ranking person in the Han clan except Yong Wang Liu Chengxun.And he has always kept himself safe, kept a low profile, and obeyed Emperor Liu's arrangements. He was Zong Zhengqing before.

At the beginning, Gao Fang, the former governor of Kaifeng, died in his post, and Emperor Liu was chosen as the successor, which also took a lot of brain cells.Thinking about coming, thinking about going, and finally Liu Chengyun and Yin Jing.

In the past few years, there is nothing outstanding, no major problems, and small mistakes.The most important thing is that Liu Chengyun himself feels exhausted. After all, Kaifeng prefecture governs a city with more than ten counties and hundreds of thousands of people. It is not so difficult to manage it in an orderly manner.

As for Liu Chengyun, although he was not a stupid person, he was a little slow-tempered. Faced with complicated official duties and endless problems, he was embarrassed, and finally took the initiative to resign from Emperor Liu, hoping to find another talented person.

Therefore, Emperor Liu directly thought of Li Gu. After all, when he was transferred from Hebei to the capital, he served as the Governor for a period of time, and now he is only resuming his post.

Faced with his doubts, Emperor Liu naturally saved Liu Chengyun's face, and said: "King Xu is my brother. Among the clan, he is the most senior now. My family is getting more and more, and the sons and daughters are getting older. Therefore, it is more appropriate for King Xu to take care of the clan affairs for me!"

"Qing can hand over and assume office at any time!" Liu Chengyou said.

"I obey orders!" Li Gu said simply, cupping his hands.

Although he is sixty and four, he is old and full of ambition. Since the emperor doesn't despise him for his age and wants to assume great power with him, he doesn't need to be self-deprecating. He is willing to continue to shine for the big man in the position of governor of Kaifeng .

"Congratulations, Mr. Ru, for becoming the capital!" On the side, Murong Yanchao congratulated Li Gu.

Li Gu naturally returned a salute, and said in his mouth: "You should also thank Your Majesty for your trust!"

Coincidentally, the two old ministers who followed Emperor Liu both worked as Kaifeng Yin.

"Uncle, you are going to Luoyang. While you are out of the palace, let's find a restaurant in the city and set up a banquet. Let's treat it as my farewell!" After talking about the business, Emperor Liu looked at Murong Yan with a relaxed expression Chao said.

"You should obey His Majesty's arrangement!" Murong Yanchao responded, but added: "I have one thing, I hope Your Majesty will agree!"

"Say it!" Emperor Liu said casually.

"The expense of setting up the banquet will be borne by the minister!" Murong Yanchao said.

"Why, is Uncle Huang starting to save money for me?" Liu Chengyou smiled slightly.

"Your Majesty has rewarded me so much, I don't want to repay you, I just want to do a little bit of my heart!" Murong Yanchao said.

"I accept your kindness! That's it, I treat you, you spend money."
