Chapter 6 Luoyang City, the Mighty and Famous Capital

Chapter 6 The towering and famous capital Luoyang City ()

Liu Yan spoke eloquently from the side, but Ji Yu felt bitter in his heart. It was also a time travel, and others were either in the Tang Dynasty, Song Dynasty, or Ming Dynasty. Occasionally, a few unlucky people traveled to the Qing Dynasty, and the country was peaceful and the people were safe. But he was not lucky,

We have traveled to the late Han Dynasty, an era when heroes emerged in large numbers. If it had been the late Ming Dynasty, guns and cannons had already appeared, and according to later war TV dramas, he could still be a fool, but the late Han Dynasty was an era of personal bravery and wisdom.

Ji Yu knew that if nothing unexpected happened, he would be the unlucky Liu Zhang and Liu Jiyu whose foundation was taken away by Liu Bei. There were only two ways before him. One was to be an honest man and continue to have his foundation taken away by Liu Bei, and then be

He was sent to the police station and died inexplicably in the end. The other option was to let the princes of the world die and kill Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty. Anyway, he was also a member of the Han family, so it would be nothing even if he usurped the throne and became the emperor.

You see, in peaceful times there were still vassal kings who rebelled. Now that troubled times are coming, people with other surnames can claim kingship and hegemony. As the brother of the current emperor, why should the uncle of the next emperor have to sit back and wait for death? Then Liu Bei is just a weaver of mats and shoes.

How can a disciple become the emperor? Liu Zhang secretly made up his mind in his heart. Since God wanted him to come to the Three Kingdoms at the end of Han Dynasty, he would conquer the world. As for other things, if he couldn't even save his life, what else could he think about?

In fact, Ji Yu was a very domineering master in his previous life. No matter where he was, he always kept his word. Others could not object to what he said unless they could refute his argument. This is why he could never find a job! All

Bosses like capable subordinates, but if the subordinate is too capable and unruly, the boss will not like it. In ancient times, those princes were even more difficult to get along with. Sun Quan was suspicious and did not say anything, so he said that Cao Cao killed someone in his dream.

, those things about killing Yang Xiu really made Ji Yu uninterested in joining Liu Bei. As for Liu Bei, Ji Yu didn't even think about it. You know, Liu Zhang in history was crippled by Liu Bei. Now that he has traveled through time and become Liu Zhang, he plans to help

Liu Zhang’s revenge in history!

Seeing that his son was stunned, Liu Yan thought that he did not understand his words. After all, a five-year-old child, if he now understands conspiracy, intrigues, and court factions, he would not be so wise as to be a monster, but a monster. But Liu Yan

He would never have imagined that inside his five-year-old son's body, there was an old demon from eighteen hundred years later! Liu Yan touched his son's head and said, "Zhang'er, don't worry, my father is only in his forties now, so he will definitely

I can lay a foundation for your brothers!"

Looking at Liu Yan's resolute face, Ji Yu couldn't help but be stunned. It turned out that this cheap dad had already seen that the world was about to be in chaos, and the reason why he chose Yizhou was: the country was in danger and the people were rich, and Gaozu became an emperor because of it.

! However, the current Liu Yan is not qualified to choose! Ji Yu suddenly felt that it would be good to travel through time and become Liu Zhang. At least he would have a father who loved him and was very discerning.

Ji Yu, no! He should be called Liu Zhang now. He secretly made up his mind in his heart that he would never let his father's hard work be in vain!

It's not far from Nanyang to Luoyang, because this is Nanyang, Jizhou, not Nanyang, Jingzhou. Many ancient Chinese place names are repeated, and many people in later generations made jokes because of this. It's like Zhuge Liang wrote in his apprenticeship list that he farmed in Nanyang

, it is really ridiculous that some scholars say that Zhuge Liang is from Hebei! Zhuge Liang is from Yangdu, Langya, and his ancestral home should belong to Guangling County or Taishan County of Xuzhou, which is the boundary of Jiangsu in later generations, and then moved to Jingzhou. If it is said that he worked hard at farming

If you can justify your theory in Hubei, how can you work in Hebei? However, he is a scholar and a professor, so even if he is talking nonsense, it is still authoritative!

For Liu Zhang, everything in the Han Dynasty was new. Jizhou was a major grain-producing state in the Eastern Han Dynasty. Although the government was unstable now, except for land annexation, other things had little impact on the people, including who became the emperor.

Of course, if there is a disaster, it will be more troublesome! However, this is not something Ji Yu considers, after all, he is not in his position and does not seek to govern!

Traveling at a fast pace, Liu Zhang had no chance to do anything except looking at the surrounding scenery in the carriage. Liu Yan took office according to the imperial edict. If the journey was too slow and the emperor was dissatisfied, even if he was a member of the Han clan, he would not be able to serve with sincerity.

They will be dismissed from office. When a dynasty is about to end, there are not many things but royal relatives.

Luoyang City is the political, economic and cultural center of the country, and is also the largest industrial and commercial city in the country. It is seven miles from east to west and nine miles from north to south. There are 11,219 palaces, dais, palaces and temples in the city.

Regarding the layout of Luoyang City in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Ban Gu described it in "Dongdu Fu" as follows:

"The old Zhou Dynasty was increased, and the city of Luo was repaired. The fan was towering, showing its wings. The capital of Han Dynasty was in all Xia, and it spread all over the world. So inside the imperial city, the palaces were bright, and the palaces were beautiful. Extravagance could not be exceeded, and frugality could not be extravagant. Outside

Therefore, the wilderness is used as a garden, and the springs are filled in to become a marsh. The algae are grown to hide fish, and the grass in the garden is used to trap animals. The system is the same as that of Liang Zou, and the friendship is in line with the spirit."

The so-called "adding to the old Zhou Dynasty" does not mean that the city of Luoyang in the Eastern Han Dynasty was built on the former site of Luoyang in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, but that Luoyang in the Eastern Han Dynasty generally drew on the capital building system of the Cheng Zhou Dynasty for additions. The so-called "luxury cannot be exceeded, frugality cannot be extravagant", that is,

"Extravagant, thrift and propriety" means that the palace is built according to certain etiquette standards and the scale is "moderate". The so-called "system of unity" and "yihe" mean that the palace is built according to the ancient system of "field of the emperor" and "king of the spirit".

"The standard planning of garden ponds. "Zhoujiu", "Zhitong" and "Yihe" are all the construction systems and usage principles of the capital garden in the Zhou Dynasty. Ban Gu compared the capital, palaces and gardens in Luoyang with the Zhou system.

It is to explain the construction of Luoyang in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and attached great importance to the construction specifications of the Chengzhou capital city.

Since the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties, Luoyang has been the capital of China. In total, twenty-two dynasties have established their capitals here in modern times. Of course, Luoyang is also included as the companion capital. The real official recognition is still

According to archaeological discoveries, some scholars believe that the ancient capital of the Thirteen Dynasties was the Seventeenth Dynasty. However, this is not for ordinary people to worry about, let the scholars study it!

Liu Zhang was stunned when he arrived at the foot of Luoyang City. Although he also visited the Ming Palace in later generations and also saw Beijing City, the old city wall had lost its former splendor and majesty. It was very quiet and simple.

Even if there is maintenance, it is not as fresh and vivid as when it is in use!

The towering city wall was at least 20 meters high, with teams of soldiers patrolling on it. Ji Yu was intoxicated by the strong armor, sharp weapons, and high-spirited soldiers. It wasn't that Ji Yu wanted to be a soldier, it was just that he loved history.

He is very enthusiastic about ancient cold weapons. However, his reaction is quite normal. When he first came to Luoyang, even Liu Yan, who was nearly 30 years old, was dumbfounded, let alone a five-year-old child who had never been out.

!It would be strange if Ji Yu really acted like nothing happened!

"Is Zhang'er stupid?" Liu Yan touched Ji Yu's head and said, "Luoyang is the capital of our Han Dynasty. Such majesty reflects the majesty of our Han Dynasty! My son must remember that you are a clan member of the Han Dynasty.

You are one of the masters of Dahan! No matter where you are, you are the most noble because you have the noblest bloodline!"

Although Liu Yan's words are a bit taboo, they are generally correct. All the clans in the Han Dynasty regarded the Han Dynasty as the private property of the Liu family. Otherwise, almost every generation would not have vassal kings rebelling, let alone those who were obviously weaving mats.
