How big is the area of ​​the Forbidden City? One thousand,080 acres. Novel.

The Daming Palace in the prosperous Tang Dynasty covered an area of ​​about 4,950 acres, the Weiyang Palace in the strong Han Dynasty covered an area of ​​about 6,900 acres, the Changle Palace covered an area of ​​about 9,900 acres, and the Afang Palace in the Qin Dynasty covered an area of ​​about 22,500 land.

The most unsolvable palace group in history is probably Xianyang Palace, covering an area of ​​2.19 million mu.

The area of ​​the summer palace naturally does not reach 2.19 million mu, but if you think about the inner lake, you can reach 90,000 mu. In addition, the area occupied by the outer lake and other palaces is smaller than that of Xianyang Palace, it is still a super-large palace.

The most important thing is that the Xianyang Palace has been burned by Xiang Yu, but the Summer Palace has just been built.

While Liu Xingzuo was gesturing on the sand table, he explained the various palace groups of the entire Xia Palace to Emperor Chongzhen. Xia Ezhe added a few words from time to time.

Although I have read the words of the saints, Xia Ezhe's way of thinking has not been completely transformed into the way of thinking of literati, or Xia Ezhe's way of thinking that serves Emperor Chongzhen wholeheartedly, there are not many twists and turns in it.

Therefore, the content added by Xia Ezhe seems very bloody. How much manpower and material resources is used in this palace, so how many barbarians died? How to solve any difficulties encountered...

In short, it shows how much effort he and Liu Xingzuo put into building the palace and how hard it was. Even if they had no contribution, they would have worked hard.

Emperor Chongzhen listened and started another matter.

The Forbidden City covers an area of ​​only about 1,000 acres, which is already big enough. The existence of this summer palace is like the Xianyang Palace. Apart from the palace groups in the harem, you need to ride a horse or a car between other palaces!

Although Wen Tiren and others who were attending the auditor didn't say a word from the beginning to the present, they also had a certain understanding of the entire Summer Palace.

As Emperor Chongzhen traveled to Nurkan, he unexpectedly discovered that Emperor Chongzhen had such an industry. Wen Tiren and others immediately started to make a small plan.

Do you want to buy some more land in the summer palace and build a few yards?

It can be foreseen that Emperor Chongzhen will definitely go out in the future. Maybe he will go to the summer palace to escape the summer heat every year, and he will definitely follow his own people.

If I had a yard here, I would not need the inner magistrate or the Shaofu to arrange the residences of people like me every time I came to the Summer Palace, that would be a shameful thing.

Before Wen Tiren and others could make a decision, Liu Xingzuo pointed to a large piece of land south of the Xia Palace and said, "Your Majesty, I will empty some land here, including more than twenty seven-entry houses, more than a hundred five-entry houses, and nearly a thousand three-entry houses."

Emperor Chongzhen immediately understood and couldn't help but secretly praised Liu Xingzuo as a guy who was good at being a human being. No wonder he could get a high position in Jiannu and finally stab Jiannu with his backhand.

After pondering for a while, Emperor Chongzhen simply turned his attention to Wen Tiren: "Liu Aiqing and Xia Aiqing have left enough houses for everyone here. How to allocate them? Wen Aiqing might as well discuss with the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Rites?"

Wen Tiren and others were even happier now that Liu Xingzuo was good at being a human being! He could get into a yard without paying money. This is a great thing!

He smiled while stroking his silver beard, Wen Tiren bowed and said, "Your Majesty, Mr. Liu and Xiahou have made contributions to the refusal of Jiannu in the Nurgandu Sibei, and have built such a large summer palace offering to His Majesty without consuming the national treasury. This shows his loyalty and respect."

This is the exchange of interests.

Liu Xingzuo used such a large piece of land to build a house and made Emperor Chongzhen win people's hearts. Wen Tiren and others had hope to be in vain, so naturally they didn't mind praising Liu Xingzuo for a good time.

Emperor Chongzhen didn't mind either.

The land was left by Liu Xingzuo and Xia Ezhe, but the decision given to the ministers was made by themselves. In the end, the officials still had to thank their kindness.

...

As the father-in-law of the Ming Dynasty, especially the daughter who entered the palace, still had a love for her since she was a child. She was afraid of the pearl that she had melted when she held it in her hand. When Wanyan Hong learned that Emperor Chongzhen was a lieutenant, he had long wanted to come over.

However, due to the fact that Emperor Chongzhen was on a trip and did not bring his horsemen to criticize others, Wanyan Hong had to strangle the idea of ​​running over to death and honestly submitted a memorial to express his hope that he could come to Nuergan even hates the sage of the face.

After the palace received the decree summoned by Emperor Chongzhen, Wanyan Hong could no longer sit still and began to curse in the Duke's Mansion: "Yes, my mother! What's the point of destroying Liaodong? Ah! I also plan to send some fun things to the eldest prince. What kind of broken things are you bringing here!"

Wanyan Hong was worried. The whole Liaodong was almost searched, but he had not found a few things that could suit his heart. What should I do if I wanted to give my good grandson a gift? Isn't it embarrassing?

However, no matter how worried it is, it is useless. The emperor's will has arrived. Even Wanyan Hong would not be able to prepare for it for another two days. He could only pack up quickly and go to the summer palace to face the Saint.

The first thing Wanyan Hong did when he saw Emperor Chongzhen was to show his loyalty first, then show off his contributions in Liaodong, and finally asked Wanyan Yuzhuo in a roundabout way.

Emperor Chongzhen also laughed secretly in his heart, sighing that it was indeed the heart of parents in the world.

Wanyan Hong is also old. His body as strong as a bear is a little hunched. In his fifties, he may not be anything else in the Ming Dynasty, but the place outside the pass is bitter and cold. Coupled with the years of battles, Wanyan Hong's hair has turned white. There are not many folds on his old face, but it is engraved with traces of time.

After the regular etiquette of the audience was completed, Emperor Chongzhen smiled and said, "Duke Hu and I are a family. Forget about these false rituals, let's go with me to see Concubine Wan first."

Wanyan Hong bowed and responded, following Emperor Chongzhen towards the back of the Xia Palace.

After just passing the palace where Emperor Chongzhen met Wanyan Hong, there was a large open space behind him. At first glance, there was almost no edge. You could only see the outlines of countless palaces from afar, countless times larger than the Forbidden City that Wanyan Hong had seen before.

Wanyan Hong couldn't help but sigh: "If it weren't for the strong national strength of the Ming Dynasty, who could have built such a majestic palace ban?"

Emperor Chongzhen said with a smile: "The ritual should have been arranged for Duke Hu Guogong? The yard was given to Duke Hu Guogong and will not be taken back in the future."

Wanyan Hong thanked her for her kindness, but her thoughts drifted a little far away.

He is the father-in-law of Emperor Chongzhen. Emperor Chongzhen is rich all over the world. It is nothing special to give him a seven-entry courtyard, just like Zhu Chunchen and Zhang Zhiji. These two Dukes of the Ming Dynasty also have them.

What I miss most is my daughter and grandson. I haven’t seen each other for many years. If I had known this day, it would be better to not let Yu Zhuo enter the palace. I stayed in Liaodong and could meet frequently. On the day I died, my son and daughter could be with me in front of the bed.

But like now, there seems to be nothing wrong with it. In a few years, my grandson will grow up and become a man. Then he will be the King of Liao, and his fief is nothing more than Liaodong or Nuergan Dusi, which is very close to me.

Is there any bastard on this land that is disobedient or easy to cause trouble? I cleaned them up in advance and let my grandson be the King of Liao?

As for the idea of ​​settling in the pass in the early years, Wanyan Hong had long been thrown away by him.

Now Liaodong and Nuergan are both territory of the Ming Dynasty, and the government is also officials sent by the Ming Dynasty court. If you stay in any county, what is the difference between being in the pass?

If you have to find out any different places, it is that winter comes earlier than in the pass, snow is thicker than in the pass, and the weather is colder than in the pass, so what is the difference between the rest? Is the rice grown outside the pass different than in the pass?

Wanyan Hong was thinking about these messy things in his mind, and the imperial chariot was ready. After Emperor Chongzhen took Wanyan Hong to the ground, he slowly headed towards the harem.

The troubles of a daughter marrying into the Tian family are like Wanyan Hong now. She must first pay homage to Concubine Wan and the eldest son of the emperor with her ministers. Then, Concubine Wanyan Yuzhuo will pay homage to her father Wanyan Hong on her daughter's holiday. She must also open her body slightly and cannot accept the full ritual of Concubine Wan, otherwise it will be a ritual.

Anyway, there are so many troubles that Wanyan Hong wants to go crazy.

After a dinner that didn't know what it felt, Wanyan Hong bowed to Emperor Chongzhen and said, "Your Majesty, there are still remaining Jiannu on the other side of the North Mountain. Why wouldn't it be better for the Wei minister to lead his troops to Pingzhi?"

Emperor Chongzhen waved his hand with a smile and said, "What's the point of destroying those Jiannu now? Let them attack each other with the Mao slaves in the north first.

If Jiannu wins, I will send a large army to conquer the unjust. If Jiannu wins, I will avenge my vassal tribes of the Ming Dynasty. If I send troops directly now, it is better to watch the wall."

After a change of conversation, Emperor Chongzhen continued: "I remember when I sent Cui Aiqing to Liaodong to meet Duke Hu, Duke Hu also proposed the idea of ​​settling in the pass. What do you say now?"

Wanyan Hong laughed and said, "Your Majesty, the land of Liaodong is bitter and cold. In the past, there were Jiannu in Liaodong. Not to mention my Xibe tribe, other tribes have a hard time. Once they encounter a white disaster, the old people in the tribe will have to leave the tribe themselves and disappear into the vast wind and snow. As for where they are frozen to death, how many hungry wolves will be gnawed at the bones, it can only depend on the will of heaven.

When His Majesty pacified Jiannu and moved the Han people from the Ming Dynasty to live, although Liaodong is still bitter and cold, it is not that difficult for winter. Especially now, every house has been built with houses and a kang has been woven in the house. Not to mention that it feels cold, I am afraid that each of them will feel too hot and cannot sleep."

Emperor Chongzhen nodded and laughed: "The wisdom of the people is always infinite. When it is too hot in summer, the people will make bamboo mats to cool down, and in winter, they will naturally create fire pits to keep warm.

I have sent someone to explore the land in Liaodong. As long as I serve it well in spring and summer, the harvest in autumn will be much better. Just by comparing the yield per mu, it is simply comparable to the fertile land in Jiangnan. It is not an exaggeration to call it Beidakuang."

Wanyan Hong nodded and said, "It's not just a harvest? Have you ever heard of a saying in Liaodong that is called "beating a roe deer and scooping fish with a stick and a pheasant flying into the rice pot."

Since Jiannu lost the disaster in Liaodong, the people can also obtain a lot of delicacies from the mountain, and this day is really better and better."

Seeing Emperor Chongzhen nodding with a smile, Wanyan Hong continued, "I'm afraid Your Majesty doesn't know. Yu Zhuo was very arrogant at the beginning, and he also said that Your Majesty was a weak scholar and she didn't want to marry. So what's going on now?

Yu Zhuo's married daughter splashed out water, now he has fed three thousand-man teams from Weichen, saying that he will use it for the eldest prince to conquer Jiannu and Maonu in the future."

Emperor Chongzhen was stunned. After coming to his senses, he pointed to Wanyan Yuzhuo, whose face was red, and laughed: "Concubine Wan's temperament has never changed yet.

Duke Hu didn't know anything. A few days ago, Concubine Wan asked me for grace, hoping that I would move the fief of King Liao to the north."

When he heard the string song, he knew the elegance. Wanyan Hong immediately bowed and said, "Your Majesty, if the fief of the eldest prince is moved north, I am willing to lead troops to drive the eldest prince forward and pacify those Jiannu and Maonu!"

Emperor Chongzhen smiled and said, "I'm afraid it's difficult to do what Duke Hu wants."

Wanyan Hong was suddenly confused and could not do what I wish. Then why did you just mention the matter of moving the fiefdom north? No matter what the Liao King's fiefdom is, it must be in Liaodong or Nuergandus? If it moves north, it is not the Beishan side?

Seeing Wanyan Hong's confused look on his face, Emperor Chongzhen said with a smile: "I have already booked a marriage for Ci, which is the current lord of the Japanese royal family, Xingzi, and will get married after Ci becomes an adult.

Therefore, the fief of the King of Liao will not move northward any further, and it is very likely to be replaced by Sakhalin Island, or simply replaced by Essay.”

Nothing wrong!

You married my grandfather's daughter, and the entire Liaodong tribe became Yu Zhuo's dowry. Now you plan to let your son marry a Japanese daughter, and even the Eagle Island has been decided, so are you planning to let your Zhu family occupy the world by marrying a wife?

The more I thought about it, the more I felt that I had gradually guessed the truth of the matter, and Wanyan Hong couldn't help but complain to herself.

Have you ever seen such a shameless emperor? Have you ever seen a prince who only marrys a foreign girl? This Ming emperor can play!

After sighing, Wanyan Hongcai bowed and said, "Your Majesty is wise. If Japan uses the Hoi Island as its dowry, then the eldest prince can unify the islands of the Japan, and retreat can occupy the Hoi Islands. Your Majesty is truly wise."

Emperor Chongzhen also nodded with a smile and said, "This is what I mean by saying these to Duke Hu. The three thousand-person teams that Yu Zhuo is going to come have been arranged by the Governor's Office on Sakhalin Island to receive training from the North Sea Fleet, and will be stationed on Xiayi Island in the future."

Wanyan Hong pondered: "If your Majesty is right, I would like to send two more teams of thousands to gather the troops of one guard!"
