Chapter 930: Dingdu (II)

Zhang Liang came out of the palace and turned to a side street, only to see Chun Yubo waiting for him at the corner.

After the two met, Chun Yubo smiled and said, "Ovary, how is it?" ”

Zhang Liang nodded and said, "The king has already intended Guanzhong to be the capital, and he will officially issue an edict tomorrow." ”

Chun Yubo said with a smile: "I said that Gao Yuan is a far-sighted person, in such a matter as Dingdu, he will never choose the wrong one, the land of Guanzhong is the foundation of the king, how can Gao Yuan give up lightly." ”

Zhang Liang said: "Actually, I'm not worried about the king's knowledge, since the king entered the Daijun, he has developed and grown step by step, and he hasn't missed that step." However, it is precisely because of the matter of the fixed capital that the relationship is important, and the interests of all parties are involved, even if it is the king, I am afraid that it may not be able to make a decision lightly, so I have to worry, but the king is decided, so that people can let people put melons. ”

Chun Yubo said with a smile: "Although you can rest assured at this point, although Gao Yuan is easy-going, he is definitely not a hesitant person, just look at him step by step, the county and the county, and now he has most of the world, there is an important decision that is not decided by the plateau, and how can it be lightly influenced by people, don't worry." ”

Zhang Liang nodded, and said: "Let's not mention the matter of Dingdu for the time being, but if there is any news from the teacher's side, I think it is time now, and it should be the time for us to officially appear, and now the loss of the Guigu family is heavy, even the two predecessors of Guigu and Chisongzi have died, and the other second and third generations of disciples have no leader, if they deal with Qi and Chu, it doesn't matter, but if you want to deal with the Jiuli clan, there is still a lack of effective helpers around the king." ”

Chun Yubo also nodded, and said: "Yes, I have written to the teacher and informed him of the current situation, I think with the wisdom of the teacher, I should be able to see this, and we have been lurking for more than 800 years, and we don't want to officially appear all the time, this is not only the teacher, but also the wish of the ancestors of the past generations, and now is the time." ”

After ―――――――― dividing line ――――――――― dividing line―――――――― Zhang Liang left, Gao Yuan was still thoughtful, and after a while, he turned back to the harem, took off his armor and robes, and changed into civilian clothes. Because Hohua and Gao Yuan now have a marriage covenant, they have been fully accommodated in Gao Yuan's big family.

Seeing that Gao Yuan was back, Li Yinghong immediately got up and greeted him, saying, "My husband is back." ”

Gao Yuan smiled: "What are you talking about?" ”

Li Yinghong said: "We are talking about when it is time to return to Lingshou now that the battle is over, but Zhong Xiu and He Hua said that the husband will not return to Lingshou, is that so?" ”

Gao Yuan glanced at Hehua and Chunyu Zhongxiu, the political wisdom of the two of them is indeed much higher than that of Li Yinghong, and he saw the current situation clearly at a glance, Lingshou really can't be his own capital anymore, so he nodded and said: "Yes, Mr. Zhang came to see me just now, and that's what he said, now our Xinjiang city has expanded several times compared to the past, Lingshou is not only remote, but also small in scale and small population, it is indeed not suitable to be the capital of our Han Kingdom, and other places should be selected as the capital, Therefore, I want to wait for the place to be chosen, and then I will take Wen Chun and Yan Yu over. ”

Although Li Yinghong's political wisdom is not as good as Hehua and Chunyu Zhongxiu, it is not ZhengzhΓ¬ Baiding, listening to Gao Yuan's words, he can immediately understand that Lingshou is indeed no longer suitable as the capital of the Han Kingdom, and it is natural to change the capital, so he nodded and said: "So that's the case, no wonder Zhongxiu and Hehua said so, but we should really change the capital, Lingshou is really too small, and it's too far, it's better to choose Handan, this is originally the capital of Zhao State, It is also one of the famous fortified cities in the world, the scale of the city is huge, the population is large, it is indeed a good place to be the capital, and most of the ministers of our Han State, most of the army are Zhao people, they must all think that they are in Handan. ”

Gao Yuan couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, the reason why Zhang Liang was in a hurry to find himself was that he was worried about this, Li Yinghong's idea is indeed very representative, because most of his subordinates are Zhao people, and the Chinese people have a very strong local plot, so if they want to choose another capital, most officials will probably choose Handan, of course, Handan is actually not a bad choice, but compared with Xianyang, it is obviously much inferior.

Although in ancient China, theoretically speaking, the monarchy is the absolute supreme authority, but in fact, the vast majority of kings can not be completely by their own temperament, we must pay attention to the opinions of the ministers, after all, the king still has to rely on the help of the ministers, in order to manage the country well, leaving the ministers, relying on the king alone is not playable, and in history a few famous arbitrary kings, just the king of the dead country. In this era, the authority of the monarchy was far less than that of later generations, and the power of the king was greatly limited, and many powerful ministers could completely influence the king's decisions.

Of course, the current Han State does not have a strong minister who is enough to threaten the rule of the plateau, and the plateau has absolute authority in the Han State, but since he entered the Daijun, the plateau has always appeared in the image of a relatively gentle and generous person, and the construction of the ministers, even if it is not accepted, will not be denied lightly, of course, because the decisions of the plateau have always been basically correct, and the Daijun has gradually expanded into the current Han State, so the ministers dare not question the decision-making of the plateau, But if the vast majority of ministers advocate that Handan should be in the capital, it will not be so easy for Gao Yuan to oppose it.

And Zhang Liang's worry lies in this, so he proposed to build the capital with the ministers of the period, it is better for the plateau not to discuss with the ministers at all, so he will act arbitrarily, and first issue an edict to officially announce that Xianyang will be the capital, so that the ministers can only honestly obey orders, otherwise it is against the decision of the plateau. It is easier than the plateau to convince the minister. Gao Yuan understood this, so he promised Zhang Liang that he would officially order it tomorrow and set it in Xianyang. But now we have to convince Li Yinghong first.

So Gao Yuan smiled, turned his head and said, "Zhong Xiu, do you think it's better if we choose the capital again?" ”

Chunyu Zhongxiu smiled and said, "If Zhong Xiu chooses, it will be in Xianyang." ”

Li Yinghong was a little surprised, if it was Hehua who chose Xianyang, it would be a matter of course, because she was the princess of Qin, of course she would choose the old capital of Qin, but she didn't expect Chunyu Zhongxiu to choose Xianyang, but she didn't think much about it, and immediately asked: "Why did Zhongxiu choose Xianyang instead of Handan?" ”

Chun Yu Zhongxiu said with a smile: "First, the terrain is dangerous, Qin is known as one hundred and two mountains and rivers, easy to defend and difficult to attack, there is Hangu Pass in the east, Wuguan in the south, Sanguan in the west, and Xiao Pass in the north, so it is taken from the four passes, known as the land of Guanzhong, Zhou Room and Qin State are all born here, and it is still the foundation of the king, and although Handan has Taihang Mountain as a screen and Zhangshui as an obstacle, it is not as good as Xianyang, and the location is also more northern. The second is the fertile field, there are many rivers in the Guanzhong area, the water conservancy is passable, the irrigation is broad, and the Qin Guoye has built the Zhengguo Canal, the west leads to the Jing water, the east injects the Luoshui, up to more than 300 miles, the canal can irrigate the land up to more than 40,000 hectares, so Guanzhong is fertile, there is no fierce year, Qin is rich and strong, so Xianyang is the capital, you can eat locally, there is no worry about food, and there are many mountains in Handan, the land is poor, and the food can not be self-sufficient; The third is that Qin has built a huge palace in Xianyang, the scale is huge, magnificent, far more prosperous than Handan, and the Zhao State has been destroyed for several years, the palace is much damaged, such as Handan as the capital, but also spend a lot of manpower and material resources to repair food, and Xianyang as the capital, there is no need for this cost, based on these three points, I think that the capital Xianyang is better than Handan. ”

At this time, He Hua said again: "The three reasons that Zhong Xiu said are all right, but I have to add one more point, but with Xianyang as the capital, you can better control the Qin land." Now the territory of our Han country is vast, but Qin land occupies most of it, so if Qin land is stable, Han country will be stable, and if Qin land is chaotic, Han country will be in danger. It's just that the Qin land is newly attached, and the people's hearts are unstable, if they are all in Handan, and if they want to control the Qin land, they must stay with heavy troops and entrust them with capable ministers, which will inevitably cause a strong branch and a strong pole, and the tail is difficult to fall, only the capital is located in Xianyang, and we personally sit in Xianyang, control the Qin land, master the heavy army, the young people, and the treacherous people, they must not dare to act rashly, as long as the Qin land is stable, the Han country is worry-free, and it will be easy to destroy Chu. ”

After listening to Hehua's words, Chun Yu Zhongxiu couldn't help but admire it very much, she said the reason for setting the capital of Xianyang, such as geographical advantages, agricultural advantages, in fact, in this era, in fact, there is a conclusion, but they have sorted it out and synthesized it, only the third point is Chun Yu Zhongxiu's originality, and Hehua from the perspective of the future rule of the Han Dynasty, explaining the importance of the capital in Xianyang, not only reflects that Hehua's personal pattern is more clever than himself, but also more persuasive, so Chun Yu Zhongxiu said sincerely:" Hehua's insight is ten times better than mine. ”

Li Yinghong listened to what the two of them said, and she also realized that she was not an unreasonable person, and after listening to the division of the two, she also knew that it was far better to be in Xianyang than in Handan. Although from Li Yinghong's heart, of course, he hopes to be in Handan, but Li Yinghong's current identity is the queen of the Han Kingdom, so he naturally has to put the interests of the Han State first, since it is most beneficial to the Han State to be in Xianyang, Li Yinghong will naturally not object, so Li Yinghong said: "Since this is the case, then I will not object to the capital in Xianyang." ”
