On that day, Ren Hong spent the night in Maoling County, two miles east of Maoling, which was the most prosperous city that Princess Yaoguang and her brothers had seen along the way: the roads in the city were criss-crossed, and the roads were "three horizontal and seven vertical", dividing the entire county into more than 30 lilu.The most spacious main road is straight and magnificent, which can accommodate four or five horse-drawn carriages in parallel, with a high crown canopy, and the traffic is like a cloud.The side of the road is the ditch of the stone base, the first pavilion outside the canal is adjacent, the cyan wine flag flutters in the wind, the sound of selling wine is endless, the scholars with high crowns and wide sleeves, the heroic nobles in gorgeous clothes come and go, and some people are drunk and shaken out from time to time.Everyone's face was filled with pride and wealth."
Ren Jun, if it weren't for the three words Maoling County written on the city gate, I would have thought that I had arrived in Chang'an."
They had already arrived at the post station, Ren Hong and Sister Yaoguang discussed the itinerary to arrive in Chang'an tomorrow, and when they heard the two of them sigh with emotion, they said: "This is not surprising, Maoling is not only the most prosperous of the five tombs, but also a big city in Guanzhong second only to Chang'an, with a population similar to that of Chang'an County. ”It's almost a conservative estimate, because at the end of the Western Han Dynasty, the population of Maoling County had surpassed Chang'an and became the largest county in Kansai.This is as if the residents of Langfang, Hebei Province in the capital area exceeded that of Beijing.However, after all, the development of Chang'an is limited by Shanglinyuan, and the floating population is large, so many people live in Chang'an, but they may not be able to mix with the Beijing hukou.During the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, from the third year of the founding of the Yuan Dynasty, he continued to migrate to the eastern part of the country and moved more than 30,000 households, accounting for half of the population of Maoling.Liu Yaoguang was a little puzzled: "Is it to move so many people to Maoling to guard the tomb of Emperor Xiaowu?"
”Ren Hong said with a smile: "Not only to guard the mausoleum, but also to strengthen the weak and do it." ”The Lingyi migration system began to be done from Liu Bang's Changling, when after the war at the end of the Qin Dynasty and the dispute between Chu and Han, Guanzhong, especially near Xianyang, was almost completely destroyed, leaving only a ruin, the former anointed land was deserted, and the Han Dynasty had to go to Weinan to set up a new capital.In order to consolidate the nascent regime, the imperial court urgently needed to restore production and stabilize society, so the migration and immigration enriched Weibei, which was a strong foundation.And Liu Bang's advisers also realized that the old nobles of the Six Kingdoms would become a big trouble if they didn't lose their way to the local level.The reason why the Zhutian of Qi and the Qu, Zhao, and Jing of Chu are strong is that they have fields and fiefdoms in Qi and Chu, and they have a combination of family in-laws and friends, and their prestige is extremely high and intertwined.simply uprooted them and moved them all to Guanzhong, after losing the soil, these old nobles were not so harmful, this is a weak dry.Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty's Yangling relocated the Seven Kingdoms Rebellion Party again, and as the descendants of the King of Chu, Princess Xie Wu's family moved to Yangling at that time.By the time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the world was completely unified, and the object of Lingyi migration and suppression became the home of the world's heroes. ”Therefore, as long as the local family has a wealth of more than 3 million, they all have to move to Maoling, which is equivalent to slaughtering one by one according to the list of wealth.And the Kanto hero Guo Xie did not meet this condition and was also relocated.A "cloth clothes" with no official and no lord, although he doesn't have much money, can say that he can move the general Wei Qing to sell face to intercede for him, which shows that his power and fame are great in the open and in the dark.There are no virtuous and unscrupulous in the world, knowing and not knowing, all admire their voices, and when they migrate, the local scholars and doctors raise funds to see them off, no less than tens of thousands.When they arrived in Maoling, the scholars and doctors in the Jingshi area rushed to make friends, and this kind of person was simply a thorn in the side of the imperial court.Because it was too high-profile, the killing of officials and hiding, not only did Guo Xie finally exterminate his clan, but also triggered a vigorous nationwide sweeping and heroic movement.In addition to forced migration, there are also sages and celebrities who took the initiative to come to Maoling for naturalization, such as Dong Zhongshu and Sima Xiangru.Sima Qian also followed his father Sima Tan and moved from Longmen to Maoling, where he met Guo Jie, the protagonist of the Ranger Biography, and got acquainted with Dong Zhongshu, and listened to the descendants of the Six Kingdoms tell the deeds of their ancestors, which provided a lot of oral materials for the creation of historical records in the future.Ren Hong secretly thought: "Taishi Gong pulled a hand when the Ren family was in danger, so that the Ren family was saved from being wiped out, although he is gone, but I should also pay homage to his descendants, after all, it is a world friend."
It's a pity that when I asked Fu Gong, he said that Tai Shi Gong's two sons had died, and the family had moved away from Maoling, and there was only one daughter, who married Yang Chang, the imperial historian. ”Anyway, in this Maoling City, any family is not an ordinary person, its family is courteous, the rich are businessmen for profit, and the heroes are rangers who commit adultery, like a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger, and "Wuling Boy" has also become synonymous with the rich and noble children of Beijing.It's a pity that Ren Hong and the others passed by Maoling County this night, and there were no noble children who came to make trouble and slapped their faces, and they were very calm.Instead, Ren Hong inspected the bags of crop seeds brought from the Western Regions, and pondered, "I don't know how much reward I can get this time?"
Is there three million?
”"Even if you can buy a house in Chang'an, you can't buy land, the vicinity of the capital is already overcrowded, most of them are royal gardens, and there is very little vacant land.If I want to farm and cultivate all kinds of crops, I have to buy land in Wuling or Baling. ”The next day, everyone set off from Maoling County to start the last day of the journey, and they can arrive in Chang'an today, everyone is very happy, especially Ren Hong, after all, it has been a full half a year since receiving the mission.The radish under the crotch finally doesn't have to run every day.When they were about to arrive in Weishui, they came to a pavilion called "Fine Willow", the willow trees on the banks of the Weishui River still had some leaves hanging low, but the old camp of General Zhou Yafu was gone, replaced by acres of farmland planted with wheat."
I still thought there would be a willow camp in this willow."
Zhao Han'er and other officials who came to Guanzhong for the first time had already heard of the name of Zhou Yafu's fine willow camp, and thought that they could see a heavily guarded military camp today. ”Ren Hongdao: "When Emperor Xiao, the Xiongnu entered the palace twice, entered Beidi County with more than 100,000 people, killed the captain, captured the people and livestock, and even sent cavalry to burn back to the middle palace!"
There are even some Hun scouts who have invaded south to Yongcheng and Ganquan!
The beacon fire near and far, even Chang'an can see it!
”A hundred years ago, it was really the Han Dynasty's most fearful time for the Huns, every day was pressed to the ground and humiliated at will, the dignity of the Celestial Empire was swept away, and every time it was robbed, it had to swallow its anger and send the princess to kiss.In Jia Yi's view, this is like the concubine of the Han as a Xiongnu, and she just wants to cry bitterly, thinking that she is ashamed and humiliated."
It is precisely because the battlefield has advanced to Sanfu that year, so we have to station a large army in Weibei.""
And now."
Ren Hong looked at the robes who had trekked with him for most of China, and said with a smile: "Because of Wei and Huo, because of Fu Gong, and because of us, the battlefield of the Han-Hungarian confrontation has been pushed to the Western Regions, so Chang'an can cast swords into plowshares, and there is no need for the fine willow camp anymore!"
”That's a good saying.Because there are people guarding in the distance, there is the Shangyuan Lantern Festival.Ren Hong only hopes that Chang'an Sanfu will always be peaceful and prosperous, and there will be no more beacon fires and no more fine willow camps.During the days of Po Sui Sui, Ren Hong understood that it was not enough to blindly defend, but also to take the initiative to attack and fight out!
Let the war start on the enemy's turf.But not long ago, someone told him that if he wanted to complete the great cause of running the Western Regions, it was far from enough to rely on the generals and officials to work the border.Ren Hong couldn't help but think of what Fu Jiezi said to him when the news of the death of King Lili of Yougu reached the canal plow.At that time, Ren Hong regretted that he pressed the treasure on the unreliable guy of Yougu Liwang, and felt that Fu Jiezi did not have to carry the pot for himself."
Why should I help you?"
At that time, Fu Jiezi said proudly: "I am helping myself, helping all those who want to earn fame in the Western Regions, and helping those who shed their blood between the snowy mountains and deserts and buried their bones here." ”"There are many voices in the DPRK and China opposing the reopening of the Western Regions, from the important ministers of Jiuqing to the virtuous and virtuous scholars, and the hustle and bustle, if they move their mouths slightly, they may make all the efforts of the soldiers to shed blood and sweat be nullified.""
Aren't you far from being able to speak?
After making such a great achievement, I just went back, ascended to the court, helped us deal with them, and fought for more benefits for those who worked hard in the Western Regions!
”Therefore, Ren Hongcai needs a flawless feat, and Fu Jiezi has already decided, and he will open up the spokesperson of the Western Regions faction in the court."
Fu Gong is right, the war is not only fought on the front line, but also has to be defeated by the imperial court, and my battlefield in the next few years will be in Chang'an!""
On top of the temple, between the palaces!"
Thinking so, they have already crossed the long Benmen Bridge, which is the bridge built by Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, such as the Hongchang Bridge, there are three in Weishui, connecting Chang'an and Wuling together.To the south, there is the lush Upper Forest Garden, with bubbling springs and ponds.Bamboo orchards, fragrant grass and good trees, the wealth of the suburbs, inclined to connect with Shu and Han.It surrounds the wall for more than 400 miles, and there are 36 palace annexes.To the east, on the other hand, is a huge city.Solid as the golden city pheasant moat tens of thousands, dredging the city into the water into the abyss, the road of Sanda is both flat and wide, and the twelve gates are extremely solemn.This is Chang'an!
Although it was still far away, Ren Hong seemed to be able to hear the heart of an empire in its prime, beating vigorously.He is like an engine, driving this huge body, slowly raising his fist, and he is about to hit the Hun in the face!
Whether it was Xia Dingmao, Han Dangdang, Lu Jiuyu, who had been here, or Yaoguang, Liu Wannian, and Zhao Han'er, who had never been here, they all stopped by the Benmen Bridge, looking at him from afar, and they were excited.Ren Hong crossed the crowd, facing the somewhat cool east wind, and hit the horse."
Chang'an, Chang'an, I have traveled through two thousand years, crossed thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, and finally came to you!"
