I’m The King

Chapter 1238: : Carrying on the Past and Opening the Future (One Hundred Twenty-Eight)

Jicheng Avenue is definitely a major landscape of Jicheng today. Originally, this road extended from the East Gate to the Jicheng Palace. The several-mile-long street was built straight. Once you enter the gate, you can see the majestic distance in the distance. Since the start of the reconstruction and expansion project of Jicheng, this road was the first to start construction. Due to the expansion of the city, this road has now been extended by nearly half and its width has doubled. In the middle is the broad main road, which can accommodate four carriages to drive side by side. However, because of the king’s suggestion, this main road is divided into two with yellow paint from the middle. No matter which direction it is above, it is only allowed to keep to the right. Driving. At first, the people of Jicheng were puzzled by this regulation, and they only said that our great king was too lenient, and he had to make regulations if he walked over there. However, after the regulations were implemented for a few months, people suddenly realized that such a A small change has actually made the passage of this road a lot smoother.

This road, named Han Road by Gao Yuan, was originally the most popular in Jicheng: Pig: Pig: Island: Novel 3w.o. One of the busy roads, it is usually crowded with traffic, but now it is basically invisible. Such a scene.

On both sides of the main road, rows of several meters high four-season evergreen branches and leaves are luxuriant, and the crown is like a cloud. In the brick flowerbeds, some early flowering varieties have bloomed smiling faces in the morning sun, dotted among patches of green grass. With the dots of flowers, behind the flower bed, there are rows of shops.

At the beginning of the reconstruction, Han Road was used as a key reconstruction object. All houses were demolished and rebuilt to a uniform specification. The three-story buildings of the same color stood on both sides of Han Road like two neat armies. These two rows of houses, along with the Han Road in the middle, are also the application of the latest technology in the building of the Han Dynasty. The previous wood and stone structures were abandoned, and all of them were replaced with reinforced concrete structures.

In the process of building the east-west traffic artery, Guo Quan invented the application of cement, the invention of the product of hardened roads. As a result, the cost of building roads was greatly reduced. In the past, he wanted to make the pavement strong and not afraid of rain and snow. The high cost was the most troublesome thing for Guo Quan. Cement successfully solved this problem, and he was building bridges. At that time, a master craftsman proposed to combine steel and cement as the backbone of the bridge, and the bridge piers were also proved in practice, which made Dahan a step forward in the history of architecture, and the speed was greatly accelerated.

Gao Yuan was pleasantly surprised by the invention and application of this technology, you must know. These two things have nothing to do with him at all, but the things that craftsmen invented or experimented with themselves in practice.

To develop Minzhi, this has always been what Gao Yuan wanted.

These two technologies were immediately ordered by Gao Yuan to be applied to the Han Road and the buildings on both sides.

This command of Gaoyuan is of course not only to show off its prestige and lavishness. You must know that Han Tao, as a landmark of the Han Dynasty, will play an important role in promoting these two technologies in the future, and in fact it is also true . After the completion of the Han Road, the cement and cement frame structure houses were quickly promoted in Jicheng, so that the construction of the new city outside the old city basically adopted these two new results.

The cement-hardened pavement in Jicheng has been continuously expanding. Gao Yuan estimates that by the end of this year, the roads in the old and new towns of Jicheng will be hardened. From then on, they will bid farewell to the dusty weather on sunny days and muddy weather on rainy days. A clean and tidy capital of the Han Dynasty will be presented to the world.

For the merchants on both sides of the Han Road, today is a special day. Because three days ago, they received a notice that today, all merchants on both sides of Han Road will suspend business. When they got up early in the morning, the merchants suddenly discovered that on both sides of the road, heavily armed young guard soldiers were standing on both sides of the road like javelins. What surprised them was that all the soldiers’ helmets were pinned on. A plain white flower.

From the beginning of the palace to the distant place, all of them have been under martial law. Above the lively Han Road in the past, today is empty. Slowly, people begin to gather in front of the merchants’ door. Han Roads are not allowed to go up. People can't help walking through the passage, and gradually, everyone finally knows what day it is.

The Lingshu of Guo Quan, the Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry of the Han Dynasty, returned to Beijing today.

Guo Quanzhi’s sense of existence with Jicheng people is really too weak, but the case of the Ministry of Industry a few days ago has freshened Jicheng people. Since the founding of the People’s Republic of China, this is the first public trial for Dahan to execute a high-ranking official, unprecedented in history. Naturally, the people of Jicheng remembered this Zuo minister of the Ministry of Industry.

However, the Ministry of Industry has just launched a big case. How can the death of the Ministry of Industry Shangshu receive such high-standard treatment? Everyone asked and inquired about each other amidst their surprise and incomprehension. Guo Quan's deeds were passed on from word to mouth bit by bit and began to spread on both sides of the Han Dao.

"Oh, that's how it is!"

"The two avenues were repaired by this Guo Shangshu!"

"He has always directed at the forefront of the construction site, and rarely sits in the yamen!"

"Speaking of which, this is a good official!"

Buzzing discussions began to sound from both sides of the quiet street.

At the moment when the morning sun rose, the melodious long horn and the sound of bells and drums sounded in the direction of the palace, and a group of people slowly walked out from the direction of the palace. As the group of people progressed, the people on both sides of the Han Road became quiet. Because the one walking in the front is wearing a royal robe and a crown. Although they don't recognize it, they naturally know that this is the Lord of Han, the King of Han.

Gao Yuan was holding a five-year-old child in his hand. The child looked a little timid, pursing his mouth tightly, and from time to time looked up at the tall man who was holding him tightly. Behind them is the discussion of politics in the Zhengshitang, and then the officials from various ministries and officials in Beijing, and finally, there is a team of as many as hundreds of parliamentarians. Among these people, except for Gao Yuan, all of them are in official hats. A plain white silk flower was pinned on it.

Everyone had guessed his identity since the boy was dressed in filial obedience. He should be the son of Guo Quan, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry. I heard that the master of the Ministry of Industry was 55 years old and married under the king’s queen. Room wife.

Gao Yuan personally took hundreds of civil and military officers and infantry for more than ten miles out of the city to greet Guo Quan's Lingshu, to show his gratitude to this veteran with excellent jujube.

The spirit-sending team led by Zheng Jun stopped on the outskirts of the city. It was only a few years since the last visit to Jicheng to see the king, but the changes in Jicheng made him feel dizzy. The original towering city walls have been wiped out and replaced. It is a neatly constructed house with blocks, and the avenue at the foot stretches to the end of the field of vision. You can faintly see the faint shadow of the palace in the distance. Jicheng has almost doubled. It used to stand at the east gate. The building of the palace can be clearly seen. Next to him is the carriage carrying Guo Quan Lingshu. He has been notified that the General Wang will lead the civil and military officials out of the city to pick up spirits.

"Old Guo, hey, it's really worth living like you!" Zheng Jun was very envious of this honor, thinking that if he died, he would never get the honor, but think about it. Guo Quan's achievements over the past ten years are not jealous. This persistence is not something everyone can do, at least he can't.

While walking on the road, Zheng Jun received shocking news about the changes in the court’s personnel. Li Can resigned, Wu Kai and Cao Tianci were reprimanded by Wang Shang. What is even more shocking is that the Minister of Engineering Zuo lost his head. The Officer You lost his official hat. In Zheng Jun's memory, this was the first time that the Great Han had punished a senior official so severely since he conquered the Eastern Army.

Wu Kui is a fleeting disadvantage. If it wasn't for Guo Quan's sudden death, or the king would not be so angry, or because the king was heartbroken, Guo Quan was so desperate, and other members of the Ministry of Engineering who stayed behind did such an unbearable thing. , Comparing the two, the anger of the king can be imagined, if it is changed to normal time, or Wu Kui will not lose his head. Of course, this is just Zheng Jun’s conjecture. He thinks more about why Wu Kui was executed so quickly. As an old politician, he also smelled some other meanings from it. I am afraid there are still some unknowns in it. Hidden.

He shook his head and threw the thought behind him.

The young guards of a battalion had already warned this area. The people who entered the city were going to take a detour today, but this scene attracted the people who entered the city. Groups of them stopped and watched one by one, watching curiously. Zheng Jun and his party waited.

Gao Yuan and his party appeared in his field of vision, and Zheng Jun greeted him with a stride.

"Shang Wang~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Zheng Jun, the guardian of Liaoxi County, send Guo Shangshu Lingshu back to Beijing!" Zheng Jun paid homage.

Gao Yuan nodded, staring at the Lingshu on the carriage: "Master Guo went there peacefully?"

"Back to King, Mr. Guo walked very peacefully. When he left, there was still a smile on his face." Zheng Jun smiled at the face leaning on the recliner, smiling like asleep. He held up a box with both hands, "This is the box that Mr. Guo threw in his arms when he left. It contains the hard work of Mr. Guo for more than ten years."

Gao Yuan took the box and slowly drew out the thick booklet bound with thread from the inside, and slowly turned page by page. This booklet condensed Guo Quan’s more than ten years of traveling north and south, building countless cities, roads, and water conservancy. Experience gains and losses, and specific information on various inventions. Looking at the scratchy handwriting, Gao Yuan's eyes moistened.

Before striding to Lingshu, Gao Yuan clasped his fists in both hands, and said deeply: "Guo Quan, I'm here to pick you up and go home!"

Gao Yuan stood up, turned around and picked up the five-year-old baby beside him, and widened him over the horse-drawn carriage cowl. He took the horse's rein with his own hands and walked forward slowly. Behind him, Jiang Jiaquan and other ministers stepped forward one by one. , Arranged on both sides of the Lingshu, holding the coffin with hands, walked forward along the Han Road.
