Chapter 270 I want to practice in Yanjing Palace
"Pingzhou took Yu Pass and drove Wanyan Zongwang out of the sea. If it weren't for our lack of naval troops, Wanyan Zongwang would definitely not be able to escape."
"Hey, why can this Jin man run away so much? He has closed the door and beat dogs and hasn't killed anyone yet." Zhao Huan said mockingly at the Jiebao.
Li Gang shook his head. The official was deliberately avoiding the issue. He never seemed to refer to the opinions of the prime minister as the prime minister when it came to military dispatch.
There was also Master Zhong before, but now everyone has been followed by the arrangements of the official family.
Zhao Huan was indeed delegating power, civil rights, military rights, and ministers, constantly delegating power to allow them to work, but without the power to shrink, it was just a military dispatch.
Arbitrary.
Zhao Huan looked at Li Gang and said, "I ordered Cangzhou to divide the grain and grass into two parts, part of it to Yuguan in Pingzhou, and part of it to Yanjing. Since Shanhaiguan is not built, let's repair the Yanjing Prefecture."
"There is also this drawing, which was sent to Yanjing Mansion overnight and ordered the Yanjing Palace to be repaired according to the order." Zhao Huan held the drawings of the Forbidden City in his hand.
Li Gang opened it and looked at it. It was much smaller than the Daming Palace in the former Tang Dynasty, but much larger than the imperial palace in Bianjing City.
Moreover, according to the construction rules, it is the construction regulations of the imperial capital, the structure of the former dynasty and the back market, the left ancestral and the right society, Li Gang asked with a trembling question: "The official is preparing to move the capital?"
Zhao Huan nodded and said, "My idea is one place in Bianjing and one place in Yanjing, a total of two capitals. The two capital system, all regulations in Bianjing are carried out according to the capital regulations, but they do not have real power."
"But it's too early to say that it's too early. It will take many years to build Yanjing City."
However, Zhao Huan smiled and said, "Don't say that I'm building a big project, I just use the materials for you. I don't need gold bricks from Suzhou kilns, nor do I need any precious golden nanmu or other things. Ordinary wood is just a piece of wood. Anyway, carpenters can decorate him like a piece of wood."
The Ming Dynasty palace was built for eleven years, and most of the time it was spent preparing materials. The pillars in the hall were all golden nanmu cut by woodcuts who entered the mountain and five hundred out of the mountain. Not only was it inconvenient to transport, but it was difficult to please.
The gold bricks from Suzhou are even more difficult to burn. Zhao Huan doesn’t think that what else can the difference be made of a brick?
After painting the outside, who can see what else?
There are also the glazed tiles of the palace, which are too difficult to burn. They also have to burn the glazed tiles into dragons, phoenixes, lions, and seahors.
There is no need for it. Zhao Huan is a natural pragmatist and only pursues practicality.
"I dare to ask the officials, what is the purpose of moving the capital? Moreover, the canal transport cannot reach Yanjing, how can we control the south?" Li Gang asked.
Zhao Huan shook his head and said, "Dazai has been thinking for too long. I am just planning to build an internship. You can know that I have this intention when moving the capital. If the time is ripe, it will not be too late to discuss it."
The purpose of Zhao Huan's capital was naturally to the territory of the Jin Kingdom. This land that belonged to the Central Plains dynasty since ancient times could not be occupied by the Jin people.
When has this been since ancient times?
It was the former Tang Dynasty, and the territory occupied by the Jin people was actually the Shanyu Protectorate of the Tang Dynasty and the Hebei Road.
Since everyone was abolished by the Emperor Tang Dynasty, rule has a legal basis.
If Zhao Huan wanted to establish a boundless country, he had to defeat all the five wastes of the Tang and Hou.
"That means that the Grand Canal of Beijing and Hangzhou needs to be repaired? The current canal from Hangzhou to Luoyang and then to Yanjing will be diverted?" Li Gang looked worried.
Zhao Huan nodded, but this is something that will only be done later. Since Li Gang has already asked, Zhao Huan said: "Settle the bend and get straight, start from Hangzhou, pass through Suzhou, Yangzhou, Xuzhou, Dongchang, Cangzhou, and then to Tongzhou, then the canal transportation can be reached."
"There are several benefits to doing this. The first benefit is to support the capital, cut the bend and straightened the Grand Canal, and the grain and taxes in the south of the Yangtze River can be directly from Hangzhou to the capital. In this way, when the materials in the north are not sufficient, this kind of transportation can be used to transport it."
"The second advantage is that by advancing the national gates, the Beiyi has always been our Song Dynasty. Even the entire Central Plains dynasty was seriously ill. So he simply established his capital in Yanjing and directly set up the imperial capital on Yanyun Road." "Defend directly on the national gates, so his military preparations will not be relaxed. You can also build the Great Wall nearby to resist foreign enemies."
"The third advantage is to transfer to Jiangnan. The rich area of Jiangnan is an area of undefeated down payment for money and grain. A Grand Canal after cutting bends and straightening will help maintain a grasp of our Song Dynasty's wealth and grain warehouses, and thus always maintain a strength advantage in any region."
"What a pity, you can't take too much steps. I don't know how many years it will start. What's the point now?" Zhao Huan emphasized again that whether it is moving the capital or building the Grand Canal that cuts bends and straightens, it will be a long time later.
Zhao Gou can't even handle himself now.
It is too early to talk about plotting against the Jin Kingdom.
This Grand Canal in Beijing and Hangzhou is like the Rentong meridians of the Central Plains dynasty. Once opened, it means that the control of the entire eastern region will be completely formed.
It can ensure that the Central Plains dynasty maintains its strength advantage in the entire East Asian world.
It is crucial to open up the north and south, open up the barriers of transactions and the constraints of transportation.
A guy like Zhao Gou who had no eggs dared to join the landlords in Jiangnan with the intention of establishing a small court. If there was this canal now and soldiers from the north were sailing south, Zhao Gou would have tens of millions of courage, and would not dare to do such a thing.
Do soldiers from the north take the sea route? The shipping now seems to be more of a life-threatening thing.
You can't take risks with your own support.
Communication between the north and the south is very important. Even in later generations, the Grand Canal has always undertaken its historical mission.
The main transportation roads in the north and south established by the Grand Canal of Beijing and Hangzhou are the lifebloods in their lifelines.
Li Gang nodded. If the government was too ambitious and did not consider the current national conditions at all, and built a lot of construction and reclaimed canals, then what was the difference between it and Emperor Yang of Sui?
At that time, people will suffer from misery and cause trouble everywhere, and it will be troublesome.
However, Li Gang heard that the official family only built the palace, and the materials used were all made of local materials. Even the pillars of the hall did not use expensive wood, so he built it with the official family.
Is there such a shabby palace? I can’t even use a golden nanmu tree. How much does it cost?
"Why do you need eight treasures and nine cauldrons when you have enough? How can you use a seven-foot body? Just build it casually. It doesn't require any high specifications, and it's repaired annually." Zhao Huan's requirements for the palace are quite low, as long as it can be accommodated.
No matter how delicious it is, it is not enough to fill your stomach. With just a meter-eight body, you can use thousands of families? Zhao Huan doesn’t think so.
Unfortunately, he is the emperor and needs face, so he is just a tall and big palace.
"Prince Li, where has the Supreme Emperor been?" Zhao Huan asked suddenly.
Zhao Ji ran very quickly, and he arrived in Lin'an after rolling and crawling in a month.
When I came back, it was almost two months old and I hadn't reached the place yet, so it was too slow.
What are you preparing to do?
"The Emperor of Supreme recently had some dysentery, so he walked a little slower. He reported where he was in real time. There were military reports that he kept surveillance along the way. It should be fine. The Emperor of Supreme should have arrived in Yinglong Mansion." Li Gang handed a letter to Zhao Ying.
Li Gang said, "The official, I have a word, but I don't know whether to say it or not."
"If you don't say it, don't say it." Zhao Huan shook his head, unwilling to listen to Li Gang's words because he knew what Li Gang wanted to say.
