Luo Yang
Nangong
Chongde Hall

Because it is located in the north of Luoshui River, south of Mang Mountain, facing the sun, it was named Luoyang, and it was renamed Luoyang by Liu Xiu a few years ago.

Luoyang as a whole is located in the eastern vein of the Qinling Mountains, and the Qinling Mountains are the dragon veins of China, so Luoyang has the spirit of the Son of Heaven since ancient times.

Luoyang City can also be regarded as a bright pearl spit out by the dragon head of the Qinling Mountains.

To the west of Luoyang is the Qinling Mountains, to the northwest is the Mang Mountain, to the south is the Luo River, and to the northeast is the Yellow River.

Luoyang is surrounded by either mountains or rivers, so it can be regarded as a plain area that is relatively easy to defend.

Today's emperor Liu Xiu was very happy and held a court meeting in the Nangong Chongde Hall.

After Liu Xiu established Luoyang as his capital, he built a palace in Luoyang. Because the world was not yet unified, most of the supplies had to be used for war consumption, so Nangong only built the Chongde Hall for the court and some palaces where the empresses and concubines lived. , while ordinary court ladies and eunuchs can only live in temporary wooden houses in the palace for the time being.

As for the North Palace, only a framework has been built so far, and the resources for large-scale expansion and repair of the palace will not be available until the world is unified.

As far as the current Luoyang Palace is concerned, its level of luxury is not as luxurious as that of the Wang family's manor.

"Now that Qingzhou is pacified, the powerful gentry of Yangzhou, Jingzhou, and Jiaozhou submit their submissions. Liaodong, which has been autonomous until now, also submits its submissions. Dou Rong of Liangzhou also submits its submissions. In the whole world, only Kaixiao from Longxi and Gongsun Shu from Yizhou are left. , Lu Fang of Bingzhou, these three forces are still unwilling to surrender to my big man, the reunification of the world is imminent!"

Years of fighting, coupled with the fact that the newly surrendered Yangzhou, Jingzhou, and Jiaozhou are not stable enough, and the people in the Central Plains have been fighting for years, and the people are in dire straits, and the remaining three forces are in a terrain that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

So Liu Xiu decided to stop the war for two or three years first, to give the people of the world a time to recuperate and recuperate, so as to prevent the people from rebelling because of the hard life.

The unification of the world should not be rushed. If it is too hasty, it will explode like the Qin Dynasty.

Although Liu Xiu often takes risks in wars and always wins more with less, but he does the opposite when governing the country, always doing what is safe.

Kai Xiao from Longxi, who had a cramp, was persuaded by Gongsunshu's lobbyists to join Gongsunshu's "Anti-Han Alliance".

This operation belongs to the fact that Emperor Qin joined the Allied Forces of the Six Nations when he unified the world, joined the Qin army when the world rebelled against Qin, joined Xia Jie when Shang Tang destroyed Xia, and joined King Zhou when King Wu defeated Zhou.

But Liu Xiu didn't care either. If it was when he was very weak, he would have cared a lot about a traitor among his allies.

But now he has a great advantage, and a traitor can't affect the overall situation.

"Send up the envoys from all over the world." Liu Xiu's smile was like a ray of spring breeze, making people feel amiable.

Who would have thought that the young man who was ridiculed for eating food and drinking silently in the corner of the Yin's manor would actually become the emperor who can rule the world now?
I am a rich peasant, how could I become the emperor of the Han Dynasty?

Although Liu Xiu has the blood of the Han Dynasty, but after all, too many generations have passed. Due to the system of the great Han Dynasty, their family has been confiscated from generation to generation. In his father's generation, he could barely be a county magistrate. When I was in person, he had already been reduced to a rich peasant who could barely eat and clothe, and his life was slightly better than that of ordinary people. He had to go to the fields to do farm work by himself. There was not even a tenant farmer in his family, and there was no Han Dynasty at all. The decency of the clan.

The last emperor who went down to the grassroots level like him was Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty Liu Bingji (Liu Xun), and Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty made the people of the world live the happiest life in history. There is no one after, but at least there is no one before.

"Xuan! The Cochin Messenger has an audience!"

"Xuan! The envoys from Yangzhou have an audience!"

"Xuan! The envoys from Jingzhou have an audience!"

"Xuan! The envoys from Liaodong have an audience!"

After a while, the voices of the eunuchs spread from one to another, and envoys from all over the world came to see the emperor.

Only areas that voluntarily surrendered are eligible to send envoys to see them. For those areas that resisted, the local rulers were purged by Liu Xiu, and then Liu Xiu's cronies were replaced to rule.

Envoys from all over the world came to Chongde Hall, and there were more than 20 people in total.

Eight envoys were sent from Yangzhou, eight from Jingzhou, eight from Jiaozhi, and four from Liaodong, for a total of 28 envoys.

Among the 28 envoys, a tall woman appeared, which surprised all the civil and military ministers in the hall.

When Geng Yan, the leader of the generals, saw the woman, he immediately became furious, stood up and just angrily reprimanded: "Female thief! You..."

"Bo Zhao, don't be rude!" Liu Xiu quickly scolded Geng Yan, telling him not to destroy the court's grand strategy of unifying the world because of personal grievances.

Geng Yan knew that he had lost etiquette, so he knelt back to his seat, but he was still groaning.

"I heard that there are outstanding women in Liaodong, and today they are really extraordinary!" Liu Xiu smiled gently, praised Wang Bian, and at the same time was very curious about Wang Bian.

It was the first time he had seen such a tall woman.

(Chinese ruler: one foot=23.75CM, one inch=2.375CM, one zhang=237.5CM)

Liu Xiu himself is only seven feet three inches (173 cm) tall, while Wang Yan in front of him, as a woman, is actually seven feet four inches (175 cm).

Seven feet and four inches, among men, it is neither tall nor short, just normal height, the problem is, Wang Bian is a woman!

In addition, Wang Bian is still wearing high boots at the moment, adding an inch to his height, and wearing a slim wool fur coat, and wearing a hair crown on his head like a Central Plains man, the whole person looks almost seven feet taller. Six inches (180), it is very heroic.

"It's no wonder that Bo Zhao lost to her back then, she is really a strange woman in the world!" Emperor Liu Xiu murmured to himself in his heart, he only thought of Wang Bian as a strange woman, but he had no other thoughts, it wasn't that Wang Bian was not enough Beautiful, just not to his taste.

Liu Xiu prefers a petite and weak woman like Yin Lihua, who can give people a desire to protect her, rather than a cold and beautiful tall woman like Wang Bian.

"My envoy, Wang Bian, present the heads of the traitors Zhang Bu, Liu Yong, and Dong Xian, and may my Han Dynasty last forever!" When the matter came to an end, Wang Bian was worried that the children of other families would make mistakes, so he came in person to ensure that The matter of surrendering to Liu Xiu can be foolproof.

After a while, Zhang Yuliang, Li Chengyou, and Lu Yiran beside them each opened a wooden box, each containing three heads.

"I already know Liaodong's intentions. The Liaodong royal family deserves to be a family that has been loyal and patriotic for generations." Looking at the heads of her three enemies, Liu Xiu nodded happily.

He didn't know much about the Liaodong royal family. After all, when the Liaodong royal family was powerful and powerful, Liu Xiu hadn't even been born yet.

By the time Liu Xiu was born, the Liaodong Wang family had long since retired, and there was not even a single member of the Wang family in the officialdom at that time.

The information he knew was obtained from the family of his concubine Yin Lihua.

I heard that Yin's family was originally an ordinary family of farmers, worse than his Liu Xiu's family, but because Yin Lihua's grandfather helped the chariot general Wang Jian at that time to capture Shentu Sheng, a rebel from Hongyan Road, so he was lucky to become a new tyrant.

As for Hongyan Dao, it can be said that he is persevering, he fails again and again, but he never gives up. As long as the people in the world are in dire straits, Hongyan Dao will 100% take the opportunity to rebel. There are many Hongyan Dao in the Red Eyebrow Army that Liu Xiu wiped out believer.
