[Rebirth] Chronicle of the Two Capitals

Relocating the capital is not a trivial matter. The planning and design of the capital requires on-site surveys. Even if the blueprints are drawn up, human, material and financial resources are needed to turn the planning from an empty drawing into reality.But before that, the most important thing is to appease and surrender people's hearts.

The Jin Dynasty has been in power for hundreds of years, and the royal family and nobles were born and raised in Yanjing. Yanjing is already their homeland, so how could they be willing to leave?Let’s take a step back and let’s not talk about feelings. Yanjing and Jinling have very different climates in the north and south. The young people are better off. The older generation of the clan moved there. I am afraid that the exhausted body will not be able to bear it. .

On people's hearts.Moving the capital to Jinling means that the political center will move southward, and the government's policy focus will shift. Many state capitals that have benefited from Yanjing may find it difficult to find development.In other words, Qingyun's road to the ninth heaven suddenly became difficult.These state governors are not making trouble on the surface, but there are many who secretly incite the people to spread unfavorable remarks against the court.

Courtiers who act as demons for the sake of political achievements and not for the people will never be amazing and talented people, who will be killed or demoted, never reluctant.It is not unavoidable for the clan to act as a demon, and to find a few people with radical words to kill chickens and monkeys.Didn't you see that the Sinicization Team of Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty killed even his parents and children in order to fix the bug?

If we talk about the difference, Emperor Xiaowen's Sinicization was out of the need to consolidate the regime of the Northern Wei Dynasty, but in Tang Dynasty, it was only for his own selfishness.From this point of view, she is not a wise emperor. Although she doesn't believe the rumors that Jinling's feng shui is not good and the dragon's veins are losing money, she can't guarantee that moving the capital to Jinling will not confirm the rumors.If the rumors prove that the Jin Dynasty was overthrown, then she would really be a sinner through the ages.

The overthrow of a dynasty is followed by coups, uprisings, wars, starvation, corpses floating thousands of miles, mountains and rivers broken and people living in dire straits.Tang Yu understands this, and it is false to say that she has no trace of guilt in her heart, but it is also false to say that she has a trace of regret in her heart.Up to now, all she can do is write papers all night, diligently manage the government, and besides accompanying the queen mother, she will devote all her remaining energy to the government, and then she will be able to hand over a beautiful and beautiful river and mountain to future generations.

As spring approaches, the snow melts and the ice melts.

Haizhou has entered a state of preparation for war. The Haizhou guards are equipped with guns and warships produced by workshops, and a total of 10 soldiers from the guards of the two adjacent states have been deployed to support the rear.

Although there are no frequent flames of war and smoldering wars, all the soldiers on duty on the watchtower understand that the vast expanse of blue waves and calm waves in front of them will be replaced by mountains of corpses, seas of blood, clouds and snow in the near future.

It is an irreversible fact that the two countries are on the verge of war.

Yanjing is far away from Haizhou, and there are several mountains and rivers and several barriers. The people under the emperor's feet have unanimously cultivated the leisurely temperament of ignoring the fire until their eyebrows are burned.And today, there is still excitement to watch, how can we miss it?

On the third day of the day, the emperor's pro-government ceremony will be held in Miyagi. At that time, the world will be pardoned as usual.

People from various places in central Beijing have entertained many relatives from other places. Most of these relatives hoped that this amnesty order would fulfill their wish of being reunited with their relatives, and traveled thousands of miles to Yanjing to welcome them in person.

Anxious, do not think about food and drink, restless.Those who don't have a clepsydra at home are pacing back and forth in the courtyard for fear of disturbing the sound of drums in the city.After going through hour after hour, I finally looked forward to the sun in a peaceful corner until the sky above my head, put my hands together, and kept chanting Buddha in the center of my mouth.

In the Forbidden Palace, the pro-government ceremony is indeed coming to an end.

The Taihe Square was full of mighty and vigorous soldiers, who surrounded the two rows of courtiers in Wendongwuxi.The courtiers are all dressed in court clothes, wearing beam crowns corresponding to their official ranks, black clothes and big ribbons, Zhu Xiyun shoes, and a black mass of holding wats to kneel and worship. A surging momentum accumulated over the years.

Once the weather can already be glimpsed one or two.

Haizhou's preparations for the war cost a lot, and with the relocation of the capital, although the national treasury has a lot of savings, for the long-term plan, it needs to be saved and should not be wasted.Therefore, Tang Yu originally wanted to keep things simple during the pro-government ceremony, but the Queen Mother disagreed with her, so she naturally obeyed the Queen Mother, and took it for granted that the Queen Mother was the same as before and always wanted to give her the best.

Tang Xi walked all the way, under his feet was the royal road carved with dragons and phoenixes, behind him were the ministers who bowed their heads and professed their ministers, and in front of him was the majestic and magnificent Hall of Supreme Harmony.In the palace, there will be princes and relatives, there will be deacons who uphold rites, and there will be treasure books of jade seals... Behind the curtain, there will be her rebellious sweetheart who is willing to marry the country as a betrothal.

There, the final procedure of the pro-government ceremony will be carried out.

Although the queen mother will add hairpins and fasten Zhu Ying to Tang Yu as a mother, Tang Yu is more willing to deceive himself and others, and regards it as a way to establish a relationship between people and people in the previous life.She knew that it would be too difficult for them to perform the evening ceremony openly and aboveboard.Tang Yu is a modern person who has received the influence of modern education and science. There is no blood relationship between them. She is not afraid of the so-called human ethics, after all, she died early in the morning.

But the Empress Dowager is different from Tang Yu, she comes from a distinguished family, a well-behaved, calm and prudent person, it is not easy to overcome the obstacles in her heart and get to where she is today.

After making the decision to move the capital, Tang Yu had already left behind her reputation a hundred years later, but what she didn't care about was her own reputation, not the queen mother's.The evening ceremony is nothing more than a formality. A good day and auspicious day are to be chosen. The two of them are in the same room. They drank the wine and had sex with each other. With the reality of husband and wife, they can join hands in raising children in the future. How could there be any regrets? ?

Even if clues are revealed in the future, how would the world view, guess, or criticize them? Because of their identities, how dare they announce them?

As long as all the good things about A Niang are left in the annals of history in the future, that's enough.

The red lichen under your feet is no different from the red carpet of a wedding; the civil and military ministers waiting on both sides, it doesn’t matter if they are regarded as uninvited wedding guests; Eloquent, I am afraid it is not inferior to the wedding master of ceremonies.

Thinking of this, Tang Yu felt a strange feeling in her heart, as if she was really going to marry herself off now.

Stepping into the Hall of Supreme Harmony, she couldn't help but raise her eyes to look not far ahead, the curtains were dense and dense, and the Empress Dowager was in the middle, with a vague face, and she could only glimpse the intricate and delicate embroidery patterns on her Zhai clothes from the gap.

You were there when I was babbling; you were there when I was a toddler;Throughout my life, you have never been absent.In the future, we will live and die together, and talk to Zicheng.After all, there are still many "firsts" of mine waiting for your participation.

Thinking of something, Tang Yu's heartbeat suddenly increased, she hurriedly lowered her head, and couldn't help but clenched the emperor's wat board tightly. The raised mountain and valley patterns on it pressed against her delicate fingers, which hurt a little.She forced herself to hide the smile that had appeared on her lips, and moved on.

Climbing up the stairs, the distance between them is getting closer and closer.

The deacon's clear voice sounded at the right time, and next, it was time to add hairpins.

Tang Yu stepped forward, trying to lift the curtain.

There was a soft ringing of the curtain beads, and the queen mother put her hand on the back of Lian Dong's hand, bowed her head, and walked out slowly and gracefully.She has always shown others with light makeup, and the beauty of her makeup is as elegant and cold as her eyebrows and eyes, like the orchids in the empty valley suddenly seen in the Lingling mountain spring.

Today, she is dressed up with heavy makeup, her eyebrows are green like smoke cages, her eyes are like lacquer ink, the center of her brows is close to the icy skin, and the six petals with cold lines are pressed between her brows, giving off a calm and unhurried aura of looking down on the world.The corners of the eyes are slightly raised, and a few strokes of color have been added. At first glance, it is three-point gorgeous, but at a closer look, it is seven-point attractive, which complements the beautiful lip color.

This makeup, how to look how appropriate.

She is especially alluring today, one glance at her makes my heart itch, but now I can only restrain myself.

Tang Yu stood where he was, watching the queen mother walking towards him step by step, his heart beating so fast that he didn't know what to do.In an instant, people came before her eyes.Tang Yu is now 17 years old. She is tall and tall. Covered by the crown dress with twelve chapters of dragon patterns, her shoulders are shaved and her waist is as plain as expected. She is the most tender and beautiful.

Tao Hua's eyes were full of reflections on the Empress Dowager's face, and the corners of her eyes were slightly curved in a smile.

Tang Yu felt that the hairpin was lightly inserted/inserted into his meticulously coiled hair, and then, those slender and white hands led Zhuying, who was in the crown, and stroked her side face from left to right. Her chin, every inadvertent skin-to-skin contact made her heart tremble and tremble.

In Tang Yu's eyes, it is not only struggle, but also lust, and even longing, which are intertwined and complicated.

The crown is fastened.

Tang Yan suppressed the surging throbbing in her chest, she stepped back half a step, folded her hands and clasped the wat board tightly, and wanted to bow down to the Queen Mother in salute.This is as a daughter, she wants to express her gratitude to her mother who has raised her for several years. She is the king and her mother is the queen mother. Both of them are role models for the courtiers in the world.

The deacon was still singing the ceremony, and then the Empress Dowager should help the emperor to get up, and the two of them were bowed down by the officials, and the ceremony was over.

Suddenly, the deacon's polite words stopped abruptly, but his mouth was not closed, and he stared at the Queen Mother dumbfounded, extremely surprised.The surroundings fell into a strange silence, as if the wind stopped abruptly.

Tang Yu was surprised, she raised her eyes in shock before she got up.The twelve beaded curtains hanging down by the crown blocked her view, but she could clearly see the queen mother folded her sleeves and bowed her waist through the gaps in the beaded curtains, and she was paying respects to herself!

"...Ah...Auntie..." Tang Yu murmured, all the emotions in her eyes had faded away, and now only ignorance remained.

As if being bluntly hit in the brain, it exploded in a daze.

Everyone in the hall was equally astonished, they all came back to their senses now, and after looking at each other in blank dismay, there was a lot of discussion.Or puzzled, or sullen, or angry.They couldn't figure it out. How could His Highness not understand such etiquette?The pro-government ceremony is no joke, there are not a few auspicious days selected in a year, if you make a mistake, you will become the laughing stock of the world!

The deacon thought about it, and wanted to step forward to ask if there was something wrong.

At that time, Xu Jiujiu came hurriedly under the imperial steps.He felt the eyes of all the people in the palace focus on him, his scalp became numb, and he walked a little faster, holding a roll of yellow cloth in his hand, and went to the imperial steps. He claimed that this was the Queen Mother's order, and unfolded it to read out.

There are more than a hundred words in the area, but the meaning is like a thunderbolt strikes down from the clear sky. There was a moment of silence in the hall, and soon the pot exploded. Those who were not calm either threw the wat board and waved their sleeves away, or they were already blushing. Thick neck rose angrily.There was a lot of noise under the imperial steps, and there was no end to it. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was a vegetable market.

Because of this decree, the queen mother wants to ask herself to abolish the queen mother!

The Queen Mother wants to depose her status as "Queen Mother". From ancient times to the present, there has never been such a reason, and it has never been heard.

There was a lot of noise underneath, but there were a lot of words that slipped into my ears, and when I was in a hurry, the words I said were always ugly.

Tang Yu's face darkened, and he was about to turn around and speak, but the queen mother suddenly took her hand and held it tightly.Her not generous but soft palms have been her most reassuring support since she was a child.Tang Yu smiled slightly, and knowing what the decree intended, his heart was filled with warmth, so he whispered to her: "Aniang, it doesn't have to be like this. I made up my mind a long time ago. As long as... uh-"

Tang Xi's eyes widened, the kiss came really suddenly, she was caught off guard, and as soon as she loosened her grip, the wat board fell to the ground, and the world was silent in a trance.The twelve crowns in front of her had already been pushed away by someone, the Empress Dowager leaned forward and hugged her into her arms, their lips and teeth touched each other, their cheeks were extremely hot.

"There is nothing shameful, and there is nothing shameful." The queen mother put her arms around Tang Yu, let go of the white teeth that bit her thin lips, and said with a low voice, "You can't be the daughter of the first emperor, but I can't be him." wife." If she wasn't the late emperor's wife, she certainly wasn't your mother in name.

No, of course not as light as you said.

Tang Yu shook her head desperately, she knew how outrageous this behavior was for ancient women.At this moment, she suddenly understood why Auntie chose to issue this edict today, and why she was so disrespectful in front of the officials.

Suddenly, many years ago, when Yu Sheng and the Empress Dowager talked by candlelight in Weiyang Palace, what the Empress Dowager said suddenly sounded in her mind——

"Although my aunt has never been afraid of her own reputation, she has to worry more about it when she comes to you. As a mother, all her heart lies in this."

A few years ago, Tang Yu had doubts, is it love or family affection between them?

Looking at it now, I'm afraid that it was as old as an ancient tree with twisted roots, and they can no longer be distinguished.
