Chapter 344 Luoyang
Luo Jing traveled this time with a luxurious mission. Not counting the generals, there were dozens of officials dealing with other affairs alone. As for the army, they were quite well-prepared.

As the only son of the Luo family who is currently walking in the world, there are a total of two hundred warriors who protect him personally. The selection of warriors is rigorous, and everyone knows that they are all warriors who can ride and shoot when they are on horseback, and can charge and kill when they are dismounted.

Not counting those auxiliary soldiers, but just the soldiers, Liu Heng equipped Luojing with 800 palace guards. These [-] people were all from the northwestern counties of Guanzhong, and they were warriors skilled in bow and horse.

These 1000 people plus complete armor, bows and crossbows, one man and three horses, if something happens, Liu Heng will really give a great credit to the Chehous who have just returned to Chang'an.

One person and three horses, although they were not in a hurry, just kept the horses walking at a normal speed, but the speed was still very fast, and smoke and dust flew up on the straight road.

The lofty mountains on one side kept going back from everyone's eyes. Luo Jing looked at the tall and straight mountains, the lingering clouds, and those towering ancient trees, and wondered how magnificent those mountains would be if the clouds cleared.

"My lord, we have already entered the Weihan Passage, and it will be a smooth journey out of here."

Luo Jing did not go out of Wuguan to Nanyang on this trip, but followed the ancient road, exited from Hangu Pass, walked all the way through the old land of the Three Jins, and then arrived at the land of Qi and Chu.

Luo Jing heard the words and said: "When we arrive in Luoyang, we should take a good rest and gather some common people in Luoyang. I want to ask some questions."

The mission traveled east all the way, and soon entered Henan County, and arrived in Luoyang, where the water of Yiluo surrounded this fertile land.

Looking at the majestic city at the end of his gaze, Luo Jing proudly said to the accompanying courtiers: "Look, gentlemen.

This majestic Luoyang city was built by my ancestor King Su in 1000 years, and it is still one of the largest cities in the world even today.

It is called Luoyang because of Luoshui, and my family was born because of Luoshui. When you come here, you must worship the god of Luoshui. "

As soon as Luo Jing's words came out, many of the accompanying officials couldn't help feeling sour. We don't even know the name of our great-grandfather, yet you can still tell what happened 1000 years ago.

Is it great to inherit it for a long time?
Can it show off in front of us if it has been passed down for a long time?
Although their hearts were either envious or bitter, everyone still said: "We should sacrifice."

Then I heard Luo Jing say: "When the ancestor was Duke Ping, the ancestor Lingjun was regent of the country. She never married, and after death she became a god to serve King Su. She is also the god of Luoshui with Concubine Mi in the past. You must Respectful, if you feel disrespectful, don't blame my sword for being sharp."

Everyone was shocked when they heard it, except for a few people who were born in the old land of Luo Kingdom, everyone else was shocked, they didn't expect such a thing to happen.

These are the legends of Bang Zhou's time, many people don't understand, the Luo family also did not have a large-scale publicity, but Luo Jing has decided to make good use of the deeds of his ancestors in the coming years Propaganda, must let the world know.

The apex position in people's hearts is so big, if you don't occupy it, others will occupy it, just like Su Wang's supreme position, without Su Wang there will be others, so it's better to let Su Wang occupy it.

Luo Jing ordered everyone to build a high platform for sacrifices on the bank of Yiluo River, and then took out the sacrifices from the army, and held a sacrifice on the bank of Yiluo.

Once this sacrificial ceremony is held, the atmosphere of the entire team will change. It is a major national event, and the sacrificial ceremony has always been one of the most effective ways to improve morale and cohesion.

After offering sacrifices to Ji Lingjun, Luo Jing led the mission to the city of Luoyang. There were a lot of people coming in and out, especially the merchants. They didn't stop for a moment. It seemed that the merchants from all over the world were gathered it's here.

Of course, it is similar in fact. Luoyang, Handan, Linzi, Wancheng, and Zhaocheng were all the most prosperous commercial cities in the past, and they were quite rich. Taking a high amount of wealth, on the contrary, Guanzhong is a bit remote, and because the Qin State overemphasized agriculture over commerce in the past, there were a lot fewer merchants.

Although Chang'an was the capital of the Han Dynasty, in fact, Luoyang was richer at least at this time, because the imperial family of the Han Dynasty paid as much attention to Luoyang as Chang'an. As the capital of the Zhou Dynasty for nearly 800 years, it is also considered to have the presence of the Son of Heaven. .

Luoyang is built of boulders and clods of soil, stacked on top of each other, with high walls and thick walls. The moat outside the city is wide and deep, and the water of Yiluo is poured into it. Under the sun, it is extremely dazzling. This is the Pearl City of Shandong. .

Due to the large-scale arsenals and granaries in and around Luoyang, this is an important place leading to Guanzhong. Once the rebels control Luoyang and then attack from all the passes in Luoyang, Guanzhong will even be defeated without a fight.

So in Dahan, it is not entrusted to any courtiers, not even the prince, and the soldiers guarding it are also extremely elite.

The governor of Henan Province led the officials of Henan County and Luoyang City to pay a visit to Luo Jing, "My ministers pay homage to the lord, and the lord is in peace."

Luo Jing didn't move, the brave warriors got off their horses, their right hands were held on the handles of the sabers at their left waists, their stern aura radiated, they took a few steps forward, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, please send all the county soldiers Disarm your weapons."

Hearing this, the Governor of Henan's face changed, and he was a little flustered. He didn't expect to be negligent, and said repeatedly: "Your Majesty, I'm negligent, please forgive me."

After finishing speaking, he asked the county soldiers to disarm and retreat, and the brave warriors retreated slowly, but they still protected Luo Jing behind them, always paying attention to the surroundings, as if there were stabs in the back, and the imperial guards galloped into the city, taking over several hundred meters. All defenses within.

Only then did Luo Jing Shi Shiran say: "Your Majesty, don't blame me. I bear the emperor's order to deter demons and demons. I have a huge relationship with me. I really can't be negligent. If I offend you, please forgive me." One or two."

Luo Jing's actions really made the officials of Henan County startled and suspicious, they were too cautious, as if someone wanted to assassinate him.

If ordinary people did this in front of them, they would have been angry a long time ago. This is a blatant disbelief in them. Even if it is other Luo family sons, the governor of Henan Province is not prepared to bear it.

But in the face of Luo Jing, he could only bear with himself. The son of King Luo Wen, the emperor's most trusted confidant and cousin, and the second generation with the strongest relationship in the whole big man is the one in front of him. Before the throne, I am afraid it is not as good as this one.

Thinking of this, the governor of Henan Province hurriedly said: "Your Majesty has a great responsibility, and your servants know it, so how dare they blame you?"

Luo Jing glanced across the officials of Henan County, most of them bowed their heads and tied their hands, motionless, looking very obedient, but he knew that this was just an appearance.

It has been decades since the founding of the Great Han Dynasty by Liu Bang, and the world has been in peace for decades, and during the time of peace, the rate of corruption of officials was extremely fast.

Luo Jing can guarantee that among the dozens of officials in front of him, half of them will be killed. There may be few people who are corrupt. After all, they are basically from rich families to be such high-level officials.

However, there are definitely those who forcibly occupy the people's land for the purpose of the family, or participate in crimes, because he has personally seen how many people Luo Xin denounced and exiled for this back then.

Luo Xin has always attached great importance to the administration of officials, and even once said: "The administration of officials is the foundation of the world, the administration of officials is corrupt, the talents of the sky, the policies that benefit the country, and ultimately the laws that harm the people. Ke Dazhi."

All policies in the world depend on the implementation of people. No matter how good the policy and original intention are, as long as the bottom thinks about playing badly, there is always a way. This is the so-called policy at the top and countermeasures at the bottom.

Especially in the Han Dynasty, Luo Xin fully realized that it was unrealistic for the imperial court to strictly control the local governance. Each locality must formulate its own policies according to the situation of each place under the general framework of the imperial court.

This gives the local government a lot of power. This method has both advantages and disadvantages. When a strongman like Luoxin is in power, local officials are trembling. Of course, they dare not go too far. You will let yourself go.

Thinking about this, Luo Jing entered Luoyang City surrounded by brave warriors and imperial guards, followed by the officials of Henan County.

Looking at the armored guards lined with swords and guns, and Luo Jing's immature but extremely serious face, he couldn't help trembling in his heart, not knowing what the waiter in front of him wanted to do.

After entering Luoyang City, Luo Jing went straight to Luo's mansion here.

Yes, the Luo family has always had a mansion here, which has been handed down since the Bang Zhou period. After several repairs, after the Qin Dynasty was destroyed and the Han Dynasty was established, Liu Bang returned a large number of things that once belonged to the Luo family.
