The residences of the three generations in the past were all between Heluo.

As the capital of the Xia, Shang and Wednesday dynasties in the past, although Luoyang has become a ruin because of Dong Zhuo's fire, its orthodox position is not as good as other cities. Even Chang'an is still far behind Luoyang in a political sense.

It was already February when Liu Xie's frame arrived in Luoyang. After all, this time he returned in triumph, and time was not as hurry and urgent as when he first came.

Zhu Jun had already led Luoyang civil and military officials to welcome him when Liu Xie arrived at Yique Pass. No matter what his thoughts about Zhu Jun, the Heluo land has been well managed by Zhu Jun this year. Although it cannot be compared with before the Luoyang Fire, Luoyang has become a lot of popularity after Dong Zhuo's fire burned Luoyang.

According to Zhu Jun, the population of Luoyang, Xingyang, Yanshi, Aocang, Gucheng and other places now has more than 100,000 people.

It doesn't sound like it's too small. When the capital was still in Luoyang, even after the poisoning of the Yellow Turban War, Luoyang alone had a population of nearly 300,000, and the entire river. Nanyin's population exceeded one million. Compared with this, the dark Yin is far from now.

However, almost all the population in Luoyang was moved to Guanzhong by Dong Zhuo. Zhu Jun became the Sili Captain and the Yin of Henan. It can be said that it started from scratch. It was quite rare to restore a population of 100,000 in one year.

"Your Majesty, is this Luoyang?" In the frame, Qiao Rong quietly opened the curtain and looked out. She looked a little disappointed on her face. No wonder, Luoyang is still being rebuilt today, and it looks less magnificent than some big cities in Lujiang, full of a sense of dilapidation.

"Yes, this is Luoyang." Liu Xie glanced out the window and nodded. The imperial chariot was quite generous. The three people and the maids who accompanied him did not seem crowded.

"Rong'er!" Qiao Ying frowned, and keenly noticed that Liu Xie's tone was a bit bleak, and he quickly glared at his sister fiercely, with a very angry look.

"You are quite boring." Liu Xie smiled, used to seeing others' respectful attitude towards him. Although Qiao Rong was a little straightforward, it also made Liu Xie feel a different feeling. If everyone was so 'sensible', the world would be too rigid.

Qiao Rong knelt behind Liu Xie and playedfully stuck out her tongue at Qiao Ying.

Liu Xie asked someone to open the curtain, and a cold air rushed in, causing the sisters Qiao Ying and Qiao Rong to shivered.

Liu Xie was strong and didn't feel anything. Through the curtain of the car, he looked at the outline of Luoyang from afar. Back then, his predecessor was here, and he was wrapped in Dong Zhuo's memory. Although it was the memory of his predecessor, the shame that had been integrated into his body still couldn't stop surging from the bottom of his heart when he saw Luoyang.

It is hard to say clearly how an eight-year-old kid understood this. Liu Xie leaned on the back of the chair, slowly closed his eyes, waved his hand, and signaled the maid to close the curtain. He didn't like this feeling very much. After a long time, he sighed: "Next year or the year after, the capital will be better after moving back to Luoyang."

Although it is troublesome to move the capital, if you want to advance to the Central Plains in the future, Chang'an is indeed not suitable as the capital. Whether it is conveyed or the radiation to the Kanto region, Chang'an is not as convenient as Luoyang, especially when transportation is inconvenient.

"I heard that Guanzhong is now prosperous and there are many new things." Qiao Ying saw what Qiao Rong wanted to say, so she quickly changed the topic.

"There are some, you will see it then." Liu Xie nodded. Outside the car window, although the weather was still cold, someone had already started to turn the ground. At first glance, he could see many plowing oxen.

The cattle on the grassland are not wild and need to be used as plowing ox, which needs to be further domesticated. Last year, although 100,000 cattle were sent, in fact, there were not many plowing oxes, and they were more breeding. This year, it has been much better. The first batch of domesticated oxen have begun to be invested in the people. People with better conditions will raise a small cow.

There are not many specialized in breeding in Jingzhao and Luoyang. There are also some poultry breeding such as chickens and ducks. The real scale is still in Xiliang and Hetao. Now the area of ​​Hetao has passed Jiluzhai with the surrender of the Xianbei royal court. According to the current definition, they are all considered to be Hetao's territory. Under Xu Huang's direct jurisdiction, the breeding herders of the Han Dynasty herding horses west of Yinshan, and even the Xianbei people dare not ask about it.

If you think about it carefully, although the imperial court has been fighting this year, it has actually had little impact on the entire Guanzhong area. After all, this time, they used cattle and horses to transport food and grass, and did not over-collect the civilians, which greatly reduced the damage to people's livelihood. Therefore, Guanzhong was still pacified and even had considerable development.

Next, before Guo Jia took over Yizhou, what he needed was to further develop agriculture. Although the main income of the imperial court is now mainly business, agriculture is the foundation of everything. If agriculture prospers, then all industries can prosper. After all, if you can't even eat enough, who is in the mood to go to business and work?

Even if the people are willing, Liu Xie would not dare to let so many people go to do this. At least 90% of the population is engaged in farming, sericulture and animal husbandry to ensure the people's livelihood of this country. This is why every large-scale battle will cause disaster. It is not that the army will kill so many innocent people, but that the princes will recruit civilians. There are fewer people who farm and more people who eat hard food. There are only a few grains to be given priority to the army. Take the court today as an example. If Liu Xie really wants to fight a war of 100,000 people without a cattle and horse pulling a cart, it depends on the recruitment of civilians. With the current court's family background, the entire Guanzhong region will return to the era of Li Guo's rule in less than a year.

This is also one of the reasons why Liu Xie was cautious about fighting in Shuzhong. The ox carts and horse carts could not be rushed into Shuzhong, and they could only rely on civil servants to transport them. If the war broke out, Chen Cang's 50,000 army entered Shuzhong, and in the rear, Liu Xie would have to collect at least 150,000 civil servants to transport supplies. Of course, if he could take the lead and occupy several granaries in Shuzhong, the pressure would be much slower. But things in the world were not that easy. No matter what happened after the war began, the preliminary preparations must be sufficient.

This is also the reason why Liu Xie only dispatched 30,000 troops to fight Yuan Shu in the south. If he squeezed, the court could still raise 50,000 troops. However, with the current transportation capacity, if there were not enough cattle and horses, Liu Xie had to recruit 60,000 civilians to transport food and grass.

Fortunately, the opponent was Yuan Shu, and Liu Xie was still a little confident. If it were Cao Cao or Yuan Shao, Liu Xie would not dare to delay it so much. Although from history, Yuan Shao seemed not very good, in fact, only looking at the current governance of Jizhou, Yuan Shao did not blindly favor aristocratic families like Yuan Shu. To a large extent, Yuan Shao would pay more attention to the interests of the people. Although he did not directly suppress it like the court, Jizhou and Youzhou were also quite effective under Yuan Shao's governance. Compared with Yuan Shu, Yuan Shao was born in the Yuan family and was not lucky to be able to gather top talents such as Tian Feng, Ju Su, Yan Liang, and Wen Chou.

"Your Majesty, Luoyang is here." Zhu Jun came outside the frame and bowed and said, "It's just that Luoyang Imperial City is seriously burned. It's only a year before Luoyang has arrived, and it has not been repaired extensively. Therefore, he had to feel wronged that His Majesty had temporarily lived in the North Palace."

Beigong is actually the Hougong. When Dong Zhuo burned Luoyang, Nangong was the place where the emperor met all officials, and it was also the most severely affected. Beigong is located in the north of the city, seven miles away from Nangong. Although it was affected, there were more buildings left.

"Beigong, I won't go." Liu Xie stood up, and the maids on both sides quickly opened the curtains of the car. Liu Xie went straight outside the car. The place where he saw it was still in a mess. Liu Xie sighed and turned his head to look at Zhu Jun and said, "It just so happens that I want to see the political achievements of Luoyang over the past year. If you are convenient for me, I will temporarily live in the Luoyang Prefecture Office. Later, I want to go and see the tracks made by the Ministry of Works."

"Now." Zhu Jun quickly agreed when he heard this, and changed the direction of the frame and headed straight towards the direction of the river and Nanyin.

The Luoyang Palace covers a wide area, and it is time-consuming and labor-intensive to repair it, and it is not beneficial to people's livelihood. Therefore, after Zhu Jun arrived in Luoyang, the first thing he repaired was the government offices and private houses. As for the Luoyang Palace, it would take at least one or two years to move the capital to Luoyang. Moreover, the reconstruction of the Luoyang Palace was a major event in the court, and Zhu Jun was not good at making decisions.

"In the past year, the city wall will be rebuilt according to the method of His Majesty's labor-for-relief. Among the imperial city, the only one that is the most perfect is probably this city wall." Along the way, Zhu Jun followed Liu Xie's frame and explained the situation of Luoyang City to Liu Xie.

"In addition, in order to introduce more refugees, I have asked the court to exempt Luoyang, Yanshi, Xingyang, Aocang and other places from taxes for three years. At the beginning of last year, I took two thousand oxen and 30,000 Han Xing plows from the court. Now most of them have been invested in the people. Last year, I have gained a lot last year, but because of the tax exemption, there was no income." After saying that, Zhu Jun looked at Liu Xie carefully. The court put a lot of effort into it. There were two thousand oxen and 30,000 Han Xing plows, but it failed to bring any practical benefits to the court. To him, it was not considered a political achievement.

"Who said that there was no income?" Liu Xie shook his head and smiled when he heard this: "The people's hearts are the income. There should be many refugees this year, right?"

Zhu Jun smiled and said, "It's true that I have collected the people in the Heluo area last year, and the total number is only 30,000, but it has expanded to 100,000 in one year. I believe that within three years, the population of Heluo will be restored to 300,000!"
