The group did not wait long, and the palace servants invited them to Wende Hall.
When everyone saw Wen Dedian, they couldn't help but slightly raise their lips.
The Bianjing Imperial Palace was very small, and the only banquet halls were Shengping Tower and Jiying Hall. Given their status, they often participated in similar banquets.
The Wende Hall is located between the Zichen Hall and the Chui Gong Hall. It was the place where Luo Youdu rested and changed his clothes when he went to court. People who are not close to him are not allowed to enter.
Holding a banquet in Wende Hall, which is not a banquet hall, fully demonstrates their identity as people.
When Luo Youdu entered the front hall from the back hall, Han Lingkun, Han Tong, Shi Shouxin and Gao Huaide had already taken their seats according to their status and were talking quietly.
Seeing Luo Youdu arriving, they all stood up to greet him.
"I have met His Majesty!"
Luo Youdu smiled and waved, "There is no need to be too formal in this private banquet. Everyone should sit down."
After several people thanked him, they took their seats.
Luo Youdu put his feet up casually. If Dou Yi and Han Xizai were here, they would have to be reprimanded. Now he can relax as he pleases. He is casual here, and Han Lingkun, Han Tong, and Shi Shouxin will be less restrained.
He clapped his hands and said: "I drink with you all the time, but not many are as complete as this. I specially found a few jars of fine Fen wine from the wine cellar. These were taken from the Taiyuan Palace when the Northern Han Dynasty was conquered.
The old wine found in the house is at least fifty or sixty years old... Today, our monarchs and ministers will not return until they are drunk."
Shi Shouxin moved his index finger and said, "Your Majesty, do you really care enough?"
Luo Youdu said: "That's enough."
Shi Shouxin said to Gao Huaide: "Lao Gao, let's have a good drink today. In the martial arts competition, I admit that I am not as good as you, but when it comes to drinking, hey, you are not as good as me."
Gao Huaide was as cold as ever and just said one word: "Okay."
Seeing that they had already arranged a drink, Luo Youdu hurriedly interrupted: "Before the drinking, there is a small program. You must all know the purpose of rebuilding Luoyang City and reorganizing Luoyang Palace."
He did not explicitly mention the move of the capital.
But the civil and military officials in the temple, especially the civil servants who love to ponder the emperor's heart and holy will, have long understood this.
Among the military ministers, such as Shi Shouxin, who did not like to use their brains, did not know about it. However, with the recent commotion, they also heard about it and expressed their knowledge one after another.
People like Shi Shouxin, Dang Jin, Chang Side, and Shu Yuan also emphasized their support.
For Shi Shouxin, Dang Jin, and Chang Side, moving the capital was just another place to sleep.
As for Shu Yuan, as long as he is given the opportunity to make a name for himself and make great achievements, there is no problem in letting him sleep in a pig pen.
Han Lingkun, Han Tong, and Gao Huaide were more or less affected.
Especially Gao Huaide, the Gao family is a large family, with hundreds of people descended from several generations.
In order to resettle his people, Gao Huaide bought 5,000 acres of land on the outskirts of Bianjing to resettle them.
This move of the capital directly caused the Gao family to suffer a huge loss.
The Gao family heard some rumors, and many members of the family cried and complained.
Gao Huaide didn't like to care about these things, but the reasonable Mrs. Gao pushed them back.
There must be some losses, but the salary of a military attache is far higher than that of a civil servant.
Especially for military officials who were also military governors, their salaries were beyond the reach of civil servants.
Therefore, Han Lingkun, Han Tong, and Gao Huaide didn't care much and expressed their support.
Han Lingkun showed his loyalty carelessly: "Your Majesty, if anyone offends you with his nonsense, let me know. If you don't do anything, I will come and beat him up. At worst, he will be demoted to three levels and go to Northern Xinjiang to chop off the heads of a few Khitan dogs."
came back."
Luo Youdu smiled and said, "You must have wanted to take action for a long time!"
Han Lingkun smiled awkwardly and said: "Your Majesty is aware that there are some people in the court who are always finding faults. I can't deal with them and I'm just holding back my anger."
Luo Youdu said with a sullen face: "Don't act recklessly. If you really can't hold back a few curses, don't do it."
Han Lingkun said "hehe" and smiled again: "That's it. If you say that, you can't take it seriously."
Luo Youdu returned to the topic and said: "I have the intention to move the capital. To be precise, the matter has been decided and no one can doubt it..."
He said and waved his hand, asking someone to fetch the design drawings of Luoyang City.
Not long after, two chamberlains carried a shelf and spread out the huge Luoyang design.
Just like Luo Youdu's first impression, although he couldn't understand the mystery of the drawings, he could feel the grandeur of the drawings just by looking at the excitement.
Luo Youdu pointed at the drawing and said: "This is the floor plan just decided by the Ministry of Works today. You can come up and take a closer look..."
At his invitation, Han Lingkun and his party came forward to take a closer look, marveling at it.
Luo Youdu said: "There were 103 neighborhoods in the entire city of Luoyang during the Sui and Tang Dynasties. After improvements, the number was reduced to 95, which expanded the scope of the original neighborhoods. Palace commander, Bu commander, Ma commander, and Brother Shi, you can choose as you like.
If you like a place, I will build a mansion for you in the best location in the neighborhood."
Shi Shouxin's heart was instantly moved, he swallowed his saliva and said, "Really choose at will?"
Luo Youdu waved his hands proudly and said: "You are my most loyal arms, which is good. The first thing I think of is you. You have no joke, just choose whatever you like and draw it on this design."
In addition to Dongcheng, there is also my Luoyang Palace, you can choose as you like."
Dongcheng is because Luoyang was burned down and desolate due to war, and the people in the city gathered in Dongcheng to live.
Therefore, the East City is inhabited and is not a deserted place. We will deal with the problem of the East City after the north, south and west sides of the city are rebuilt.
As he said that, Luo Youdu looked at Zhang Qiong, Chang Side, Liu Fu, Dang Jin, Shu Yuan, Kang Zaiyu, and Kang Baoyi who looked at him with admiration, and said: "You are the same, you are all my potential ministers.
I will not treat you unfairly, I will personally select the neighbors for you, and I will also give each of you a mansion as a gift."
Several people were overjoyed one after another and hurriedly said: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Shi Shouxin geared up and asked, "Brother Han, what do you like? How about we be neighbors? It will be convenient to drink together from now on."
Han Lingkun said like swatting away flies: "Go, go, who wants to be your neighbor?"
Although Han Lingkun was not from Luoyang, he settled in Luoyang when he was very young. He was very familiar with the situation in Luoyang. He analyzed the general location of the future military camp and chose a place close to Luoyang Palace and the military camp outside the city.
A neighborhood.
Love reading books
When Han Tong saw that Han Lingkun had chosen the south of the city, he casually chose the west of the city, which was also close to the palace city.
Gao Huaide also made a casual choice, and the three of them chose a place far away from each other in a tacit understanding.
Luo Youdu smiled knowingly when he saw this. Although he did not suspect the three of them, he was still very happy that they took the initiative to avoid suspicion.
Shi Shouxin did not have this political consciousness. After being rejected by Han Lingkun, he went to Gao Huaide and said, "Brother Gao, it would be more convenient for us to be neighbors!"
Gao Huaide gave him a disgusted look, he must have been beaten.
Han Lingkun pushed him and said: "Your Majesty, please forgive me. If you have a good seat, why would you choose what others have left?"
Shi Shouxin realized: "It makes sense!"
As he spoke, he chose a place between Han Lingkun and Gao Huaide.
