The World of Yellow Sky

Chapter 735 Founding of the country
Xu An sat in front of the bronze mirror, and the smooth mirror reflected a slightly distorted familiar face.

Ten years passed by like a white horse passing by.

In the blink of an eye, he was almost in his thirties.

Leading the army for years, exhausted by horses and horses, staying up late at night at the desk for approval, has already made him show some signs of premature aging.

Fortunately, he did not give up on exercising. Hua Tuo's Wu Qin Xi and the boiled medicinal diet still had some effect.

But even so, the white hair on his head is still gradually increasing, but it is much better than before.

Half of those who travel a hundred miles are at ninety, and the end is difficult.

A heavy burden weighed on his shoulders, but he had no way to talk to anyone.

Facing the generals under his command and the officials in the Tao, Xu An must always show a confident look.

Even in the face of the closest person, he must hide some of his emotions.

For more than four hundred years in the Han Dynasty, the Han Dynasty experienced several rises and falls, but they all finally stabilized. It seems that the destiny of the Han Dynasty will always favor the Han Dynasty, and the country of the Han Dynasty seems to be permanent.

In fact, everyone has more or less doubts in their hearts. They are doubting whether the Taiping Road can really liberate the world.

Even though Taiping Road has now occupied the land of the four states and the general trend has been achieved, there are still people who doubt it.

And Xu An is actually one of them, he is not full of confidence just because he has the advantage now.

Throughout history, there are too many unknowns and too many accidents.

Xiang Yu, who was once victorious in all battles and crowned the world bravely, was defeated by Liu Bang.

Gaining the upper hand, Xinmang's army of hundreds of thousands lost to Liu Xiu at the foot of Kunyang City.

Sweeping across the north, coercing the emperor to command the princes, Cao Cao, who had swept the world, was finally defeated in Chibi.

The Battle of Feishui caused the former Qin Dynasty, which was once extremely powerful and had the power to dominate the world, to fall apart.

Until the last moment, the outcome is always unknown.

But no matter what, he has to show confidence in front of others.

Xu Anduan sat in front of the bronze mirror, staring ahead, staring at himself in the bronze mirror.

The eyes of the vague figure in the bronze mirror are extremely firm.

There is no crown suit, no crown.

Xu An didn't wear the emperor's crown, but a ochre-yellow Taoist robe.Ochre yellow is earthy yellow, with red in the yellow.

The blue sky is dead, and the yellow sky should stand.

In the Eastern Han Dynasty, it was Huode and Shanghong.

The five elements restrain each other, Taiping Dao is Tude, Shanghuang.

The cloud shoes are clean socks, the waist is tied with a silk sash, and the head is wearing the Taiqing fishtail crown that only the Lord of the One is qualified to wear. The dress is meticulous, and all the hair is bound by the fishtail crown, and there is no stray thing scattered outside. send.

Xu An took a deep breath, stood up, and pushed open the door.

The sky is not yet clear, and the bright moon is still there, but the stars have lost their light. Soon, when the first ray of sunlight appears in the sky, the founding ceremony will officially begin.

At this time, envoys from various countries, powerful families from all over the world, the people around Chang'an City, and the generals and officials in Taiping Road have all entered the reserved viewing venue.

Today's Chang'an City has been expanded and is more than double the size of the original Chang'an City.

This time it is not the Anmen line that serves as the central axis.

According to Xu An's suggestion, Yan Zhong redesigned and built Chang'an City.

Taking the front hall of Yingtian Mansion as the central axis, Chang'an City was expanded.

Xu An's suggestion was actually based on the Chang'an City of the later Tang Dynasty. Although the newly built Chang'an City has not been completely built, its layout plan is relatively similar to the Chang'an City of the Tang Dynasty.

The main function of Chang’an City in the Han Dynasty was to house the royal family, not ordinary people, and this obviously violated the Taiping Dao’s policy of governing the country. In addition, the current Chang’an City does not meet the requirements of being the capital of Taiping Dao, so it was There is a matter of remodeling.

In the newly planned Chang'an City, there are twenty-five avenues that intersect from east to west and north to south. These twenty-five avenues divide the entire Chang'an City into two cities and [-] squares.

The original old Chang'an City was designated as the inner city, while the expanded Chang'an City was designated as the outer city.

Among them, the street on the central axis is named Chang'an Avenue, and the city is divided into east and west parts with Chang'an Avenue as the boundary.

There is a city of fifty-four squares in the east, and there is a city of fifty-four squares in the west.

There are a total of [-] squares in the two cities, corresponding to [-] stars.

Among them, thirteen squares are arranged in the north and south, which symbolizes the leap in a year.

To the south of the inner city, there are four squares in the east and west, symbolizing the four seasons of the year.

To the south of the inner city, there are nine squares in the north and south, which symbolize the so-called "five cities and nine kui" recorded in the book "Zhou Li".

The newly built Chang'an City, like the old Chang'an City before, has twelve gates, three on each of the east, west, north, south, and north sides.

There are three gates in the south, namely Zuo'an Gate, Yongning Gate and You'an Gate.

Yongning Gate is the most central city gate in the south, and it is also the starting point of the south of Chang'an Street that divides the entire Chang'an City.

According to the original plan, Xu An will drive in a car and lead his personal guards, go north through the Yongning Gate in the outer city, and then enter Yingtian Mansion through the Chang'an Gate in the inner city, which is the Nanfu Gate of Yingtian Mansion. .

Xu An will take the throne in the front hall of Yingtian Mansion, which is now the Xuanzheng Hall.

The sound of cock crowing sounded, and the sky in the distance was already pale.

The sun is rising and the sky is slowly getting brighter.

Xu An stood in the courtyard and looked up at the sky. He waited from the deepest darkness until the first ray of light broke through the darkness.

In the courtyard, a group of burqas and belts, fully armed knights of the Tengxiang Guard, and yellow angels wearing cassocks full of scriptures are all ready to go.

As the sky gradually brightened, Xu An's eyes moved down from the sky and looked towards the gate of the courtyard.

He still has all kinds of doubts in his heart, and he has many doubts about the current path of Taiping.

He doesn't know if he can succeed, he doesn't know if he can take on this important task, and he doesn't know if he can lead this country to a bright and correct path.

Countless people followed behind him, and millions of lives and deaths were all on his shoulders.

Once it fails, it will be beyond redemption.

In workshops everywhere, the same slogan is written.

We are moving forward, we are doing an extremely glorious and great cause that no one has done before, our goal will definitely be achieved, our goal must be achieved.

The times are different, and the reality of the situation forced Xu An to make many changes according to the actual situation.

These changes made Xu An inevitably have some doubts about his future development. He is walking a path that no one has ever walked before.

just.

Apart from this path, he could no longer think of any other path he could take.

The torrent of the times is rolling forward, he has no choice, he can only move forward, firmly forward.

Outside the courtyard, Zhang Ji stood on top of the car and drove it.

Xu Hong stood in the courtyard with the Yanling Saber in his hand, waiting quietly.

Xu An's eyes gradually became firmer. There has never been any regret medicine in this world. Since he has chosen to embark on such a path, he will definitely go to the end.

Xu An stepped forward and boarded the car.

All the knights of Tengxiang Guard got on their horses one after another and guarded Xu An's surroundings.

The horned dragon flags were erected one after another, and one after another the Tengxiang guard cavalry walked to the predetermined position.

On the tall car, the ochre-yellow helmet swayed slowly in the wind.

After driving, the nine sun, moon and star flags were lined up.

At the front and back of the convoy stood hundreds of yellow angels holding halberds, wearing armor, and cassocks full of scriptures.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

The low and desolate horn sounded slowly.

Zhang Ji shook the reins lightly, and the five yellow horses slowly moved forward with four hooves.

The emperor drives six horses, the princes drive four, the high officials three, the scholars two, and the common people one.

The sound of wheels rolling across the ground sounded, and everyone in the convoy followed the car at the same moment as the car drove forward.

The convoy moved forward slowly, and the roads in Chang'an City were very smooth. Even though there were not many means of shock absorption, standing on the four-wheeled carriage, Xu An didn't feel much bumps.

Walking all the way outside the city, I didn't see any pedestrians, and I didn't see any army. They came all the way, and there was only their solitary army on the official road.

The sky is getting brighter, and the vision is gradually becoming clearer.

Xu An has already seen the city wall of Chang'an City not far away. The city wall here has been built. Because it is newly built, it is far from the simple and simple texture of the old Chang'an city wall.

On the city wall, flags fluttered, and countless khaki flags fluttered on it. A soldier with a spear in his hand stood on the city wall, guarding the city dutifully.

The gate of Yongning Gate was originally closed, but as the convoy approached, Yongning Gate slowly opened.

In this way, Chang'an City appeared in front of Xu An. At first, there was only a slight humming in Xu An's ears.

When the Tengxiang guard cavalry at the front of the convoy arrived at the corridor of the city gate, the buzzing sound suddenly rose.

The buzzing sound disappeared, replaced by high and loud cheers from both sides of Chang'an Avenue and from the throats of countless people: "Long live!"

The car drove into the corridor of the city gate. The sound in the corridor was a bit dull, but the deafening cheers kept bouncing back and forth in the corridor, hitting everyone's chest back and forth.

Xu An's heart was beating violently as the sound waves hit again and again.

After passing through the tunnel, the cheers became louder and louder again, like a mountain roaring and a tsunami, countless people raised their hands, clenched their fists towards Xu An, and shouted loudly.

On both sides of the street, there are soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army maintaining order.

Among the fanatical crowd, under the control of soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army, local police, and Yinglang Wei Tiqi, there was still a certain order, and they did not lose control.

Many law enforcement officers in plain clothes are hidden among the crowd, and their task is to nip all threats in the bud.

Standing on top of the car, Xu An looked at the countless people on both sides who raised their arms and shouted at him. Even though he had experienced countless wars, even though he had seen countless magnificent scenes, even though he was used to seeing the scenes of large armies clashing, Still excited about it.

In the ears are the cheers of mountains and tsunami, and in front of my eyes are countless people who are raising their arms and shouting.

The sound of horseshoes, wheels, and the clash of armor, all the sounds were overshadowed by the cheers of the mountains and tsunami.

The car drove forward slowly, and the cheers of the mountains and tsunami did not stop for a moment along the way, accompanying his car to Chang'an Square and Chang'an Gate.

The gate of Chang'an is wide open.

In the Xuanzheng Hall of Yingtian Mansion, all the generals and officials of Taipingdao were waiting for Xu An in the hall, waiting for Xu An to become king.

The car drove forward slowly, and the deafening cheers gradually fell behind everyone and disappeared in everyone's ears.

Xu An's excited heart gradually calmed down, replaced by an inexplicable emotion.

He turned his head to look in the direction of Chang'an Gate, the gate was not closed, he could still see the people on the square who were raising their arms and shouting, and the faint voice in his ears proved that everything just now was not illusory.

The driver didn't stop because of Xu An's actions, Zhang Ji drove the carriage dutifully.

Xu An turned his head and looked at the Xuanzheng Hall of Yingtian Mansion not far away.

As the car drove forward, the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army guarding along the road all held their heads high and held their chests high, saluting solemnly to Xu An.

Xu An stood on top of the car, looking at the main hall in front of him, but his thoughts flew to the sky involuntarily.

From ancient Yanhuang to Ming and Qing Dynasties, after thousands of years, countless countries were established on the land of China.

Princes, princes and generals are like the stars in the sky, and emperors and monarchs are like carp crossing the river.

These people are all heroes of the time, but the foundations established by those emperors and generals, the countries they established, and the dynasties they established eventually disappeared in the long river of history.

Divided for a long time must be together, long together must be divided.

Dynasties change, destiny changes.

Countless countries were destroyed, and countless countries were re-established on the hills, and then went to perish.

For thousands of years in China, countless countries have risen and perished, dynasties are not eternal, empires are not long, and reincarnation seems to never end.

All efforts seemed to be in vain.

The emperors, generals, and capable people of all dynasties summed up the experience of the predecessors, summed up the reasons for the collapse of the previous dynasties, and proposed improvements.

But the final outcome is the same, no one can escape the vicious circle of the rise and fall of the dynasty.

Qin Huang Han Wu, Tang Zongming Huang, which one is not the leader, the hero of the world.

But even so, they all failed.

Hundreds of years cycle.

Those emperors who created a dynasty thought that they were different, that they could create an eternal dynasty, enjoy the destiny of eternity, and lay down the career of emperor for eternity for their descendants.

The golden city is thousands of miles away, and the descendants of thousands of generations of emperors are just a joke.

The destiny of all ages, the eternal dynasty is nothing but illusion after all.

Compared with such arrogances as Qin Huang Han Wu and Tang Zong Ming Huang, Xu An clearly knows that his advantage is only because he knows China's thousands of years of history, he knows everything that happened later, and he knows more far-reaching issues.

But even so, Xu An didn't have any assurance that the country he built would be able to escape this desperate cycle.

It's just that not being sure is an excuse to give up?

Xu An clenched the shaft of the car in front of him.

Prosperity, people suffer; death, people suffer.

In just eight words, Tao has gone through the ups and downs of the ages, revealing a bloody fact.

The world of Huang Tian described in the Taiping Sutra did not come true even in later generations.

Too ideal, too empty talk, too unrealistic.

It's just that this is simply impossible, but this is not a reason to give up fighting for it.

Even if he can't change things that will happen a thousand years later, he can still change the tragedy of Wuhuhuahua, and can also make China stronger than before.

Nowadays, schools have been established in all parts of Taiping Road, and reading and literacy have arisen everywhere.

The people in Taiping Road are getting rid of their ignorance, and they are beginning to open their eyes to see the world.

They know how big the world is, and they also know that there are many countries besides the big man.

They know that there are not only the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty in this world, but also a larger territory and a wider territory outside the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty.

Education is popularized, and people's wisdom is opened.

Everything is actually different.

Even if Taiping Dao will perish in the future, the influence left behind will still exist forever.
