Only when he sits on the throne of the king can he deeply understand the intentions of Qin Huang and Han Wu.With one's own life, he seeks the eternal foundation for future generations.

However, if Qi State has Cao Sheng and a large number of civil servants and military generals to assist, the two generations of Qi State will definitely continue to maintain the situation of expanding its territory.

By then, the dream of unifying the universe will not be difficult to realize.

"Since Sheng'er said so, the widow agrees to this matter. Come on!"

Zhan Zhao, who was outside the hall, walked in quickly and bowed in salute.

"Tell Sima that the widow has approved their request and is now preparing for the enthronement."

Zhan Zhao heard the words, his face was full of joy, and he quickly took the order and left.

It is easy to found a state of Qi, but it is not so simple to become an emperor.

The first is to establish the capital.

The current capital of Qi State is Pengcheng, Xuzhou, accompanied by Yecheng, Jizhou.Although these two cities are famous all over the world, they are important cities that have been passed down through the ages.But after all, the location is not as well-connected as Chang'an in the former Han Dynasty and Luoyang in the later Han Dynasty.

When the kings of all dynasties established their capital, the first consideration was the stability of the capital.

Chang'an has the natural moat of Qinling Mountains, the danger of Tongguan and Hangu Pass, and the inner Guanzhong Plain is fertile and wild, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack. It is for this reason that Gaozu and the first emperor established their capital here.

In the Eastern Han Dynasty, most of the old capital of Chang'an had been destroyed. In desperation, the capital was built in Luoyang.Although Luoyang is not as steep as Chang'an, it is also protected by important checkpoints such as Hulao and Sishui.

Compared with them, Pengcheng and Yecheng seemed somewhat inadequate.

Once in danger, the capital will have no ability to resist, and will face the enemy's fierce attack. This is not a measure for the long-term stability of a dynasty.

Cao Anmin told the thoughts in his heart to the women in front of him, and the women also participated in it one after another, choosing among the many states and counties in the world.

Finally, it was agreed that Qi will determine the four capitals model in the future.

The northern capital was set at Beiping, the prefecture of Youzhou, the western capital was still set at Chang'an, the eastern capital was set at Pengcheng, the current capital of Qi State, and the southern capital was set at Jianye, the capital city of Wu State.

The four capitals respectively control the four places in the southeast and northwest.Except for Beidu and Dongdu, which are currently under control, other places still need to be conquered slowly before they can be fully determined.

Even so, the construction of Pengcheng, the eastern capital, needs to be carried out first.As the capital of the future unified dynasty, Pengcheng still needs to expand.

Chapter 776 Qianyuan Palace

Expansion of the city is not something that can be achieved overnight. After the Spring Festival, the newly appointed Shang Shu Ling Wang Meng, Sikong Xu Guangqi, Ma Jun, Tao Zongwang, Tang Long and others in the research institute have started preparations for the expansion of the capital.

Cao Anmin conscripted [-] people at one time and worked hard for more than a month, but he only built the southern city wall. If he wanted to expand all four walls and build four towers, it would take at least a year or so.

It will take time for the army to be repaired and replenished with soldiers and food and supplies, so there is no rush to mobilize the army from all over Qi.

Cao Anmin also took advantage of this time to inspect various places in Pengcheng.

The spring plowing began, and the people in the fields were busy, plowing the land, plowing the plowing, a scene of living and working in peace and contentment.The old and the weak, women and children were all working, while five and six-year-old children were playing and chasing in the fields; when they saw Cao Anmin's banner approaching, the people threw down their farm tools one after another, knelt down to thank them, and shouted long live!

Although Xuzhou experienced Japanese pirates' invasion, it recovered very quickly after the war. Now that spring plowing has begun, the people are busy with farming. It seems that everyone has forgotten the flames of war.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Cao Anmin immediately praised: "Unexpectedly, in just a few months, Xuzhou has returned to calm. The scene of living and working in peace and contentment is very different from the flames of war in the Central Plains. If it persists like this, it will inevitably The national power is prosperous, so why worry about not being able to calm down the princes. All this is due to Mr.

It is Zhao Pu's credit for reclaiming the land. As the governor of Xuzhou and accompanying the king, it is already a smile on his face to receive such an evaluation.

Zhao Pu was extremely happy to be appreciated by Cao Anmin.At the beginning, he was not a nobleman, and he had no reputation, so he was reused by Cao Anmin when he first arrived.With neither merit nor foundation, one must adopt a modest and prudent way of life in order to make a difference in official career.Today's self, although he is the governor of Yizhou, is also extremely low-key, and his style of conduct is completely different from that arrogant and complacent attitude.

"How can Zhao Pu have such virtue, to be so praised by the king."

Cao Anmin nodded in satisfaction, and drove the car all the way to the construction site of the southern city wall.

Xu Guangqi had already known the news that Cao Anmin was coming to inspect.In order to welcome the arrival of the king, Xu Guangqi specially gave all the civilians a morning off, and asked the residents of the city, no matter men, women, old or young, to put on clean clothes and line the road to welcome Cao Anmin.

Cao Anmin was full of joy when he was on the horse, while Chen Yan and other women in the carriage were also in an extremely happy mood, waving to the people through the curtain of the carriage from time to time.

Little Cao Sheng looked at the scene in front of him, and secretly vowed in his heart that he must inherit his father's great ambitions and push Qi's foundation to a new peak.

Surrounded by civil and military staff, Cao Anmin rode his horse slowly, and kept bowing his hands to the people who lined the road to welcome him along the way, unable to hide his happy face.

The 500 troops had already stationed outside the city, and only civil servants and military generals and [-] imperial guards followed Wang Jia into the city. They shuttled forward amidst the welcome of the common people. After walking five or six miles into the city, they finally arrived at built a new palace.

Looking from a distance, I can see a majestic and majestic palace gate building rising from the ground; the main building of the city gate is [-] feet high, made of brick and wood. The ruler of the world, the aura of mastering the universe!

Although the new palace is expanded on the basis of the original palace.However, Xu Guangqi and others made drastic cuts and cut some places, making the palace even bigger, and the grandeur was far greater than before.

On both sides of the main building protruded an auxiliary building, about [-] feet long and more than [-] feet high. Although it was not as imposing as the main tower, it was still majestic and magnificent.Its main function is to protect the palace gate. When attacked, the Imperial Forest Army can hide in the auxiliary buildings on both sides and shoot arrows at the enemy attacking the gate.

The vermilion palace gate is five feet high and is divided into five leaves. The emperor walks in the middle, the civil servants walk on the left, the military generals walk on the right, and the common people and lowly people such as court ladies and eunuchs walk on the outermost two sides.All in all, the supreme authority of the royal family is vividly displayed on this majestic palace gate.

In his previous life, Cao Anmin also traveled to many places.I have been to two important places, Xidu and Beidu, and I have seen a lot of various ancient buildings, but compared with the magnificence in front of me, it really pales in comparison.

At this moment, he understood why the ancient kings liked to use people's power to build palaces, not for other reasons. Only by standing here can they feel the majesty of the king.

"Xu Qing is really amazing! It's only been a few short months. Although it's only a prototype, it has already made everyone see the excitement. If it is really built, it will be amazing!"

Behind Cao Anmin, there are many civil servants and generals who have just come here, as well as Chen Yan, Da Qiao, Yuan Fang and other wives and concubines. Everyone is shocked and amazed at the scenery in front of them.

Although the Qi State has fought all the year round, their national strength can still maintain such a strong posture, not for other reasons, but because Qi State has extensive business routes.They are extremely prosperous in business, and Cao Anmin himself mainly sells books based on his research institute, which is even more lucrative, and he has earned countless money.

It is precisely because of such support behind it that Qi can remain invincible.

Among the crowd, although Li Ru hid in it, he was one of the few courtiers who had seen the grandeur of the East and West Capitals.Seeing the capital city of Qi State in front of him now, he couldn't help admiring: "Mr. Xu is really a great talent. The gate of this palace is so majestic, even the gates of the Weiyang and Changle palaces in Xijing are not as good."

Although Xu Guangqi was not familiar with Li Ru, he was very happy to be praised by the other party, and said with a loud smile: "Everyone praised, this is not my work alone, but the result of the joint efforts of many talents in my research institute. Without those exquisite craftsmanship With the concerted efforts of carpenters and painters, it doesn't matter if the old man has the ability to reach the sky. The old minister believes that since the king intends to build Xuzhou into the capital, I will naturally try my best to build a palace for His Highness that is not inferior to Weiyang and Changle Only in this way can we show the majesty of heaven and make the princes of the world submit to us."

Suddenly, he thought of something, and approached him and said: "This imperial palace hasn't been named yet, how about today, the king gave him a name."

Cao Anmin had already had a name in his mind, so he said politely at the moment: "Since that's the case, I will name this palace, Qianyuan Palace, which means that the universe is the only one, and all things are born, what do you think?"

After listening to Cao Anmin's words, all civil and military personnel also applauded in unison. Naturally, no one would stand up and sing the opposite. Moreover, the name Cao Anmin chose was indeed imposing, making it impossible to find fault.

Cao Anmin originally wanted to hear everyone's opinions. Since no one objected, he directly designated this imperial palace as Qianyuan Palace.

It indicates that the state of Qi is about to dominate the world and create a grand plan and great cause of prosperity.

Chapter 777 Seeking a fighter opportunity, Wei Guo is afraid

From spring to autumn, and into May, Qi's eyes seem to be all focused on the construction of the new capital Xuzhou.The peace makes people forget that it is not a peaceful and prosperous age, but the end of Han Dynasty when the feudal lords were fighting for each other.

When the starry night fell, Taiyuan City was completely silent in darkness.

Looking from a distance, we could barely see the figure of Wei Zu who was constantly patrolling above the city gate.

Although Bingzhou is in the hands of the State of Wei, the two counties of Yanmen and Xinyu in the north have fallen into the hands of the State of Qi a few years ago.Without the protection of the natural moat of the Yanmen Great Wall, Wei's heavy troops could only concentrate on the front line of Taiyuan for defense.

Cao Ang mobilized troops, Cao Ren and Xu Shu went north with heavy troops.Guard Taiyuan.I thought that the battle would be in full swing, but I didn't expect that since the army entered Bingzhou, there was no trace of Qi soldiers.Not only that, the border between the two countries, business travel is still going on.
