Chapter 47 Solving Yuan Tiangang's Confusion

Li Daozhen looked at her drooping hair in the bronze mirror (Tang Dynasty virgin hairstyle), and sighed long, she shuffled her hair and combed it into a Lingyun bun.

Xiao Tao watched Li Daozhen comb her hair like this, pursed her lips and said, "Lady, this is a woman's ......"

Without waiting for Xiao Tao to finish speaking, Li Daozhen raised her eyebrows and said unhappily: "I want you to talk more!" ”

Xiao Tao retreated abruptly.

Although Li Daozhen's makeup was impeccable and beautiful, Li Daozhen did not order it to stop, and the two maids with braids did not dare to stop. In the room, more than a dozen large boxes have been locked, and the whole room seems unusually empty. Several servants carefully carried the locked box back and forth.

Li Daozhen looked out of the house from time to time. Suddenly, Xiao Tao saw that the two people carrying a sandalwood box were tilted, and hurriedly shouted: "Be careful, this is the lady's beloved vase, which broke your legs......"

The sound of soft footsteps sounded, and Li Daozhen quickly adjusted her mentality and sat upright. Li Daozhen's gaze instantly fell on the knife in Li Daoxing's hand.

Li Daozhen asked knowingly: "This is ......?"

"Sister really doesn't know?" Li Daoxing handed the horizontal knife in his hand to Li Daozhen. Chen Ying's horizontal knife is not surprising, but the saber of the rank of Zhongwu General or above is slightly different from the Datang standard horizontal knife, the horizontal knife used by ordinary soldiers belongs to the seventy refinement, and Chen Ying's horizontal knife belongs to the hundred refinement, of course, the hundred steelmaking and the seventy steelmaking cannot be distinguished from the appearance at all. In order to reflect the difference between the two, this Zhongwu general's saber has a scabbard decorated with a sword with a gilded handle, and that's it.

Li Daozhen took the horizontal knife and slowly pulled out the scabbard and looked at it carefully. Looking at it for a long time, Li Daozhen was suddenly stunned, put the knife into the sheath, and stretched out his hand in front of Li Daoxing: "Take it!" ”

"What?"

"Faith!"

"What a letter!"

Li Daozhen didn't talk nonsense, raised the horizontal knife and smashed it at Li Daoxing's head, although the horizontal knife was not unsheathed, but if this knife was smashed, Li Daoxing would definitely not be able to get out of bed for half a month.

"Don't!" Li Daoxing hurriedly took out the letter written by Chen Ying from his arms.

Li Daozhen opened the envelope, and there were only twenty-eight words on it: "I was worried about hurting the Sanskrit line, and I was afraid that I would not fall into the city when I entered the mountain." The world is safe and perfect, and it lives up to its promise. ”

Originally, Li Daoxing really didn't understand what this meant, and then he muttered: "Live up to it...... Hey, this bastard thinks it's beautiful......"

Li Daozhen showed a murderous gaze, Li Daoxing felt a chill behind him, and quickly changed his words: "Sister, can you not leave?" The eldest brother went to Lingzhou, and you went too, so it wouldn't be interesting for me to stay in Chang'an. ”

Li Daozhen's tears flowed down her eyes.

Li Daoxing said: "You're not worried...... Those gossip? Whoever dares to talk more, I tore his mouth. ”

Li Daozhen handed the letter to Xiao Tao: "Lock it up!" ”

"Locked up?" Xiao Tao was puzzled and muttered, "Isn't this just a few words?" ”

"It's gold not exchanged!" Li Daozhen picked up Chen Ying's horizontal knife and raised it forward: "Let's go, go to Lingzhou." ”

……

Entering the early winter, the first snow in Chang'an City has not fallen for a long time. Although the weather was getting colder, the Chidao project could not be delayed, so Chen Ying had no choice but to bite the bullet and take office.

The imperial court of the Tang Dynasty was very efficient at this time, and with the issuance of Li Yuan's edict, the people recruited in the Jingzhao region began to arrive one after another.

The drawings surveyed and mapped by the Ministry of Industry were also placed in front of Chen Ying. Chen Ying had no choice but to separate the people into skilled people and ordinary people, and then organize the ordinary people into several teams based on the li, township, and city and clan. First, the road surface was leveled by digging ditches and filling in the soil on the side of the official road, and the people who knew how to craft the track were to start the track construction work according to the prescribed standard size.

At this time, on the official road from Chang'an to Huazhou for more than 100 miles, a huge construction site was formed. As many as 50,000 or 60,000 people, at the same time, the work was in full swing.

Although Chen Ying presided over the construction of the Chi Road, in fact, he did not have to do it himself, he also had a Ministry of Works, a Water Department Langzhong, four staff members, and six other directors and other twelve officials to assist, Chen Ying will eleven adjutants, one person to share a mess.

The Ministry of Engineering is responsible for the quality control of the road, the Water Department is responsible for digging ditches and filling soil to level the road surface, and the other four staff members and six directors are responsible for section control.

At the same time, Chen Ying also has dozens of former officials of the Hou Mo Chen family led by Xu Jingzong, who are specially existing as reviewers and tracking the quality throughout the process.

Although Li Yuan only needed Chen Ying to make a show and confuse Wang Shichong and Li Liang, Chen Ying didn't want to deal with the difference like this, but he really wanted to build such a galloping road. For a long time, Chen Ying only noticed the strategic position of Guanzhong, but forgot about another benefit brought by the strategic position of Guanzhong.

Guanzhong extends in all directions, because there are four passes to defend, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, in times of war, Hedong, Hexi, Luoyang, Shandong people fleeing often prefer Guanzhong, which is a place where talents gather.

However, since the fall of the Tang Dynasty, Guanzhong has lost its foundation as the national capital, and Xi'an is not even a second-tier city in later generations.

The reason for this is, to put it bluntly, that Guanzhong is over-exploited, which destroys the ecological balance. With the passage of time, the population of Guanzhong is increasing, and the land in Guanzhong is not enough to feed the population of more than 4 million people in Guanzhong.

As the starting point of the Silk Road, Chang'an's materials have been unable to support Hexi, which makes the price of food and the cost of living in Guanzhong inflated. Once the gallop is completed, such a Chang'an can be stable for a long time.

However, it is a very serious problem in front of Chen Ying, if the track of the gallop is all built of wood, I am afraid that the trees in the pass will be cut down, and it may not be enough, the key is that the wear and tear of the wood is really amazing.

However, to use steel rails, in this day and age, also seems unlikely. The point is that the steel production of the Tang Dynasty at this time was too low. Chen Ying thought about it and decided to restart the blast furnace steelmaking plan in Lingzhou.

However, at this time, he was no longer the governor of Lingzhou. He can't control the affairs of Lingzhou. Suddenly, Chen Ying had a flash of inspiration in his head, and decided to go to the East Palace to see Li Jiancheng and seek a solution.

When Chen Ying came to the East Palace, at the gate of the East Palace, he bumped into Li Jiancheng and wanted to go out. Just as Li Jiancheng raised his leg and was about to get into the carriage, Li Jiancheng looked at Chen Ying.

Li Jiancheng waved his hand at Chen Ying and said, "Chen Lang, it's just the right time to come, this palace will take you to see a great sage." ”

Chen Ying smiled slightly and said, "Where is the great sage worthy of the condescension of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?" ”

Li Jiancheng said in a low voice: "Yuan Tiangang! ”

At the beginning of the Sui Dynasty, Yuan Tiangang was the salt official order, and the official government was empty, and physiognomy was an elegant talk. He once traveled with Du Yan, Wang Yan, and Wei Ting, and showed them one by one. He said that Du Yan "Lantai, the school is complete and broad, and it will be shown by articles" (Lantai, also known as Jin Kui", a "Xianku", referring to the left nose. That is, the nose wing, the school, refers to the part in front of the ear door, the main wisdom and wisdom), said Wang Si "decree into the law, heaven and earth are close to each other, not ten years of officials and five products" (decree, the longitudinal lines on both sides of the nose to the mouth), said Wei Ting "face like a tiger." to be a military officer". It seems that all three of them can be high-ranking officials, but Tiangang warned: "However, the three monarchs have been punished for a long time, and I will see it." ”

Later, Du Yan was a bachelor, Wang Lian was the crown prince Zhongyun, and Wei Ting was the left guard. This Yuan Tiangang's prophecy was all fulfilled.

Occasionally, I heard Wei Ting say that Yuan Tiangang had the skill of face-to-face, and Li Jiancheng was so amazed that he wanted to go to Yuan Tiangang to solve his worries.

Li Jiancheng was very enthusiastic, and Chen Ying had no choice but to follow Li Jiancheng into his carriage.
