Chapter 12: Walking to see the appearance of all living beings in Luoyang
After everyone chatted for a while, they started to make noises below. Teams of police officers were arrogantly ordering people to clean the streets, and they would beat them from time to time.
"Sweep them all for me. His Majesty the Emperor will come to Luoyang tomorrow, so please be careful!"
"quick!"
"What are you doing over there? Walk faster!"
"As for you, you are the only one who is still looking at it. What are you looking at? Clean it up quickly and move all these things back to me!"
Li Zhiyun's eyes gradually turned cold, "Did you see that, if I had not come to Luoyang, the people might not have been treated like this."
Several people looked at each other, they didn't understand what the emperor meant.
Blame yourself?
Or are you angry at Luoyang Ling's inaction?
Changsun Wuji said: "Most local officials are like this. If the superior officials inspect the inspections, they will become lax over time. This time when Your Majesty comes here, they don't dare to neglect, for fear of making His Majesty angry if they don't do well."
"Angry?" Li Zhiyun sneered: "I am not Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty. I patrol the world and pay tribute to important places."
"Having said that, the local magistrate also wants to give His Majesty a good impression."
"It's just superficial." Li Zhiyun shook his head, "I would rather not have this kind of thing. If I bother the people without permission, I will be the one who bears the infamy. Alas."
Chen Shuda smiled bitterly and said: "Your Majesty must have had the foresight, otherwise it would be difficult to see the scene today."
"This is not a good thing."
After saying that, Li Zhiyun stood up and left, and several people quickly followed him.
When he walked to the street, he saw that the police officers were so imposing, shoving and shouting at the people, just like local overlords.
"Did you see it? If you don't know, you think I'm some kind of fool."
The officials following him did not dare to speak.
After walking for a while, Li Zhiyun discovered that Luoyang City was still a big city. Even though it didn't look like it had much life, its aura was actually more magnificent than Chang'an.
It should be said that it was built by the prodigal son of Emperor Yang of Sui Dynasty.
When Luoyang was conquered, Li Zhiyun and Li Shimin discussed and decided to keep the buildings of Luoyang City, but not to repair or build new palaces.
As a result, many places look very mottled.
However, precisely because of this, Luoyang has a sense of history.
No wonder the emperors of the Tang Dynasty would move the capital in history. After all, Luoyang had the foundation laid by Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty. Who wouldn’t want to live in a big house?
Thinking of this, Li Zhiyun remembered that the late emperor told him that he wanted him to move the capital.
Will the capital be moved to Luoyang in the future?
He had considered this issue in his spare time.
There are pros and cons to relocation.
The advantage is that it is out of Guanzhong, but the disadvantage is that Luoyang has no danger to defend and is the place of the Four Wars. However, this place of the Four Wars is just a term used during the war. In peacetime, Luoyang is among the best in the world and is worthy of the title of the capital of a country.
After walking around Luoyang City for a few times, Li Zhiyun and others arrived at the gate of the Governor's Mansion.
It was already evening.
"Who are you?" The boy at the concierge of the Governor's Mansion looked at this group of people.
Changsun Wuji took two steps forward and said, "Let your master come out. We came from Chang'an and want to see him."
"You are so loud!" the boy said arrogantly: "You don't see where this place is and you dare to ask my master to come out to greet you. You think you are the emperor!"
Changsun Wuji had a strange look on his face, and immediately said: "You'd better report it to Pei Shiqing, so as not to suffer any physical pain."
"What can you do to me if I don't go?" The boy said arrogantly: "Get out of here, not everyone can come here, get out of here before I get angry!"
Li Zhen stepped forward quickly and slapped the boy, causing him to spin in circles.
"What a courageous dog. Even in front of Pei Shiqing, he wouldn't dare to be so arrogant. He is indeed a rich and evil dog!"
Li Zhiyun stood in the center of the crowd with his hands behind his hands, looking at the plaque in front of the house with long eyes.
Pei Mansion.
Alas, really, can this kind of thing happen to me?
The boy knew that these people were not to be trifled with, so he covered his face and returned home. After a while, Pei Shiqing walked out quickly.
"You...General Lee?"
Before he could greet him, Li Zhen turned sideways, revealing Li Zhiyun's figure.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty?" Pei Shiqing hurriedly bowed and saluted, "Your Majesty, Pei Shiqing, is here to see His Majesty the Emperor."
The boy was dumbfounded. Is he really the emperor?
Li Zhiyun smiled and helped him up, "Prince Pei, the threshold of your family is very high."
Upon hearing this, Pei Shiqing turned his head and glared at the concierge, then turned sideways to lead the way.
"Your Majesty, please come in quickly. The servants in the palace are rude and I am guilty."
"Okay, let's call it a day." Li Zhiyun stepped in and walked in. He didn't want to argue with a servant.
Main hall.
Everyone sat down, and Pei Shiqing ordered people to bring tea.
"Your Majesty, I am still preparing to greet you. Are you here in advance?"
"Otherwise?" Li Zhiyun said with a smile: "If I don't come here in advance, how can I see a real Luoyang?"
"Okay, I know that as the governor of a state, you will inevitably make some omissions."
"Thank you for your understanding, Your Majesty."
"The matter of welcoming you is over now. Don't disturb the people. I will go to Luoyang Palace tomorrow to see you and then go back."
"yes."
After Li Zhiyun had eaten, he rested in the guest room under Pei Shiqing's arrangement.
inside the room.
Li Zhiyun and Pei Shiqing were sitting on their knees opposite each other, playing Go.
Although tables and chairs were popularized in Luoyang, Pei Shiqing was already used to sitting on his knees, so the mansion did not purchase any.
Snap.
Li Zhiyun intercepted the big dragon with a single sunspot and asked softly: "How did you do in Luozhou?"
Pei Shiqing pinched Bai Zi and sighed: "Everything else is easy to solve, but land management is very difficult to implement. Fortunately, with the help of Mr. Zheng, he can barely let those with more land accept it. Despite this, many people choose to sell off their real estate.
Leave Luoyang."
"It's not surprising that it's very detrimental to them to share the same family. It's normal to leave." Li Zhiyun said calmly.
Pei Shiqing said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, with all due respect, this method must not be promoted rashly, otherwise there will be endless troubles."
"I know, otherwise I wouldn't only implement it in Luozhou and Zhengzhou. I also want to see what problems will occur if I do this."
Seeing that the emperor knew what he was doing, Pei Shiqing stopped talking and said, "If I do something wrong, please point it out and I will correct it."
Li Zhiyun knew that he was talking about his private visit incognito.
"You are the governor of a state. You have your own considerations on how to govern. I will not question you just because of a private visit."
"Thank you for your trust, Your Majesty." Pei Shiqing said slightly moved.
Li Zhiyun said: "But please don't disappoint me."
"Yes, your Majesty, please rest assured that I will do a good job."
The next day.
In the Luoyang Palace, Pei Shiqing and others followed the emperor as they walked around.
Walking in the Luoyang Palace, I felt a sense of similarity. This feeling was not groundless, but because some parts of the Luoyang Palace were actually very similar to the Chang'an Palace.
On the road, Li Zhiyun's mind inevitably became active. If the capital was moved to Luoyang in the future, it would not be impossible.
The palace here is ready-made and much larger than the Chang'an Palace.
However, he also thought that if he wanted to move the capital, there would be a lot of trouble, and he could not imitate Emperor Yang of Sui.
Moreover, once the capital was to be moved, it would be necessary to repair the Luoyang Palace, which was also a considerable expense.
Forget it, let’s wait a few more years.
Anyway, Li Zhiyun will not think about moving the capital within three to five years.
Who doesn't like luxurious and magnificent palaces? But there are some things that you can't just stick to your own will and have to look at the actual situation.
