Aspiring to the Ten Kingdoms

Chapter 506
Luo Youdu pinched the Chuanguo jade seal with his fingers, looked at it left and right, and murmured in his heart: Wu Tingzuo did it too, don't you know how to wash it?
How did he know that Wu Tingzuo's legs were shaking with this thing.

He didn't dare to stay by his side for this hot thing.

Luo Youdu noticed that the corner of the Chuanguo Yuxi was shining golden. He took the cloth that wrapped it and wiped it, revealing a golden corner.He couldn't help laughing secretly: "Zhao Pu can do it. After working hard, he knew that the jade seal was missing a corner, and Wang Mang made it up with a gold inlay."

He glanced at the many ministers in front of the palace, and said with a smile: "I have never seen the real Jade Seal of Chuanguo, all my loves, please take a look for me, is this thing real or fake?"

As he spoke, he handed the jade seal to the servant, asking him to wash it first, and then show it to the ministers for appreciation.

The cleaned jade seal is really quite decent, with a radius of four inches, five dragons in Shanghai, and engraved with eight seal characters on the front of it: "Ordered by the sky, long life and eternal prosperity".

It has everything it should have.

Not to mention, there are quite a few people who have seen the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom in today's temples.

It was only 25 years ago that Li Congke set himself on fire in the Xuanwu Tower in Luoyang holding the Chuanguo Yuxi.

The seniors who have been promoted in the court have the opportunity to get a glimpse of the true face.

Not to mention living fossils like Wang Jing and Fu Yanqing.

After Wang Jing resigned from his position as Jiedushi, he went to Bianjing to retire.

Luo Youdu gave him the false title of grand master and allowed him to go to court once a month. He can go to court at any time, even if he doesn't want to go to court, it's okay, just let him know.

The jade seal is now in the world, so I will naturally have nothing to do with it.

Wang Jing dared to take it from right to left, he held the wooden box, looked at it from right to left, and said, "Your Majesty, when Shi Jingtang invaded Luoyang with Shi Jingtang, Shi Jingtang dug eight feet to find the legendary Wan Taozi. Now It came into the world with Zhao Pu, which shows His Majesty's virtuousness, and is recognized by the heavens."

Anyone with a discerning eye knows what's going on.

But just like pointing a deer into a horse, even if they know or believe that I am fake, some people dare to say it.

After all, the political significance behind it is too small.

Perhaps in the eyes of the people of the past, the legend of Wan Taozi was a dead thing, but in the eyes of the ancients, the meaning is extraordinary.

During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, when Emperor Jin and Yuan crossed the east, because of the jade seal in his hand, people ridiculed that the Sima family was the emperor of the white board.

The same is true for Li Shimin. It is said that Luo Youdu was snatched by the Turks. I carved a few of them myself and made them the emperor of the whiteboard.

Why has Khitan always regarded itself as orthodox?

The Han people in the previous generation regarded the Song Dynasty as orthodox, but the surrounding countries of that era recognized the Liao Dynasty more, because the Liao Dynasty was inherited.

Inheritance is something that China attaches great importance to.

In the early years when the Khitan ruled the Central Plains, they brought all the imperial utensils inherited from the past dynasties to Xiajing, and they firmly grasped the point of inheritance.

Of course, everything must be based on strength.

Now there is no biography of Luo Youdu, and he has firmly taken the initiative under the orthodoxy.

No matter how few imperial utensils are, it is better than the seventy-seven squares Chuanluo Youdu.

People who know the situation have already congratulated in a low voice: "Zhao Pu has descended from the sky, and the jade seal has appeared in this world, which foretells that you will have no virtue in the reign of the king, and there will be peace in the sky."

In the blink of an eye, all the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty spoke together: "Your Majesty is a virtuous and virtuous man, and the divine weapon is now in the world. Repay the gods as a gift, and pardon the heavens."

At that moment, even if the jade seal is fake, it will become real.

Wan Tao, who had been watching from the sidelines, came out at that critical moment and said: "The artifact of the country and Wan Tao came out of Luoyang together, and I proposed to rebuild Luoyang Palace and repair Luoyang City."

Wan Taozi's own concept of Yuxi is not weak, and planning to move the capital is my real goal.

Zhao Kuangyin didn't want to be trapped in Kaifeng like Zhao Song.

Kaifeng does not have the advantages of Kaifeng. It has convenient water and land, and is connected to all directions.

In the era of turbulent separatist regimes, Kaifeng has obvious advantages. It can mobilize materials in the first time and attack and defend at will.

But when peace comes, the smallest disadvantage of Kaifeng appears.

It's not that I have dangers to defend, but that when Kaifeng was built, it was aimed at the size of the capital, and it was an abnormal city.

That foundation determines the size of Bianjing. Although it can be expanded inward, no matter how inward it is, it will only increase the space in the inner city. The imperial city is still the same.

Because in Miyagi, there are dense houses and shops.No matter which direction to expand Miyagi, it is necessary to demolish a small number of residential buildings and shops.

If you want to expand the Bianjing imperial city, you have to tear down and rebuild all the mansions and shops of the nobles, gentry and small households around the palace.

That kind of small project is not to mention, how could these princes, nobles, gentry and small households who occupy the adjacent to the palace refuse to sacrifice the golden land in their hands to fulfill me?

Besides, even if we refuse, it will ruin the overall structural layout of Kaifeng.

Therefore, Kaifeng's behavior in the troubled times is at the right time, but when it comes to the peaceful and prosperous times, it will be limited by its own size.

Luoyang City is the same. When it was planned and built, it was aimed at the size of the capital.

Nanshi, Beishi, and the neighborhoods of the imperial city were well planned in advance.

It is entirely because there are merchants doing business at the entrance of the palace, building a restaurant that can see the palace clearly, or the prime minister has been working all his life, and he can buy a house in Bianjing.

In that era, there was a more suitable capital than Luoyang. The foundation was ready-made, and reconstruction and renovation were very complicated.

As soon as Jiarui's words came out, it caused great turmoil.

After this, Zhao Kuangyin has already faintly revealed the problem that Bianjing is too big.

Now that Jiarui proposes to repair Luoyang, it is clear that he has no intention of catering to the king and moving the capital to Luoyang.

Moving the capital is the most important thing for the country and the people, and it involves a lot of interests, so it is naturally a voice of approval.

The civil and military officials under the temple are all resident in Bianjing, and they have already settled down. Moving the capital directly made our efforts in those years come to naught.

Among them, Shen Yilun, the household doctor, praised the most peacefully. I am from Kaifeng, and my heart naturally turns to Bianjing.

Shen Yilun said solemnly and authentically: "Your Majesty, the sky is about to be unified, and the imperial court is waiting for prosperity. This is an opportunity for development. Small construction projects at this time will benefit the country."

Zhao Kuangyin was not surprised that there was no sound of approval. After all, the matter of moving the capital involved a lot.

But it was obviously louder than what I had imagined.

After a little thought, it suddenly dawned on me.

In history, the national jade seal also had no intention of moving the capital, but it was resisted by all officials.

The main reason is that Zhao Kuangyi is deeply rooted in Kaifeng and is willing to take risks.

Guo Yuxi was also restrained by civil servants because of the national policy of me and the scholar-officials ruling the sky together.

Zhao Kuangyin himself has no such concerns, and I have always maintained a balance between civil and military.

Whichever side I am facing has the upper hand. Unless the civil and military forces work together, I will be constrained by either side.

At the same time, my prestige is far from being comparable to that of Guo Yuxi in history.

If it is really necessary, courtiers especially will directly disobey my wishes.

Seeing this, Zhao Kuangyin's heart was clear, and he said: "Let's follow Zhao Xiang's opinion on this matter. Zhao Pu is now in Luoyang, and he will be reborn from the ashes."
