When Pang Tong arrived in Liaodong, Zhuge Liang also took a boat southward with Lu Xun and other scholars.

Although Zhuge Liang was going to Yizhou to take office, he could go south through the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal. After reaching Guangling County, he could go upstream along the Yangtze River and then turn overland to Sichuan.

Therefore, Zhuge Liang, Lu Xun and other scholars who went to Jiangdong could be said to have traveled south together, and they had a lot more time to interact with each other.

The Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal starts from Changshan in Jizhou, with stops and starts along the way, and it only takes more than half a month to reach Wu County.

This is an improvement several times compared to the journey that once took three to five months, or even a year and a half in case of an accident.

Even after it was opened not long ago, various industries that rely on the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal have emerged. Water transportation, salt transportation, port trade, labor transportation, logistics transportation, etc. have all been greatly facilitated.

Even the families who live along the river have more industries to support their families. Their lives are getting better and better, the flow of people is bustling, and the housing prices are getting higher and higher.

Just like when a subway station was opened near a family's home in later generations, housing prices increased exponentially in an instant, and even the flow of people increased.

On the way south by boat, Zhuge Liang and other scholars were filled with emotion when they saw this scene of blooming flowers.

"I heard that after His Majesty insisted on opening up water transportation between the north and the south, many civil and military officials expressed opposition.

Even the civil servants and officials all said that Your Majesty wasted money and wasted money and was militaristic.

If His Majesty hadn't fought against all odds, we wouldn't have been able to see this extraordinary landscape. This is a great project worthy of being included in the annals of history!"

Zhuge Liang sighed sincerely.

Lu Xun also nodded and said:"If it weren't for your Majesty's absolute force to unify the world, integrate the chaos of the world, and end the state of separatism among the heroes. Carrying the general trend of unifying the world.

If it were any king, he might be given up by the opposition of all the officials in the dynasty. The power of the nobles is still too strong!"

It is not an exaggeration to say that the world after the end of the Han Dynasty was a world ruled by kings and nobles. The royal power was no longer as supreme as it once was.

Many scholars around him glanced at Lu Xun from the corner of their eyes. The Lu family was the fourth largest family in Jiangdong One of the famous families, a proper member of the aristocratic family.

However, they did not ask for trouble by speaking out. They stood silently behind the two top picks and echoed.

Zhuge Liang smiled lightly and said:"After your majesty's education reform, now A fair and impartial imperial examination was held to select talents, and the power of the gentry was no longer able to influence the court.

I have to say that His Majesty is really talented and strategic, and his great achievements are not inferior to those of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty!"

The crowd's flattery became even louder, and their praise for Liu Chen was like an endless stream of water. Even if Liu Chen couldn't hear it at all, it seemed that this could reflect their loyalty and their supreme respect for Liu Chen. Admired.

Lu Xun shook his head helplessly. Among these scholars, only Zhuge Liang had something in common with him. He smiled and said:

"Your Majesty is indeed a man of great talent and strategy, and his great achievements will be praised throughout the ages! The Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal and the cement roads all over the world are comparable to the Great Wall and Qanat.

This is a great achievement that is worthy of being entered into the annals of history and lasting for thousands of years. It is a truly great project. The descendants of future generations will all praise His Majesty's wisdom and martial prowess!"

Zhuge Liang also agreed very much with Lu Xun's praise.

In addition to the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, the cement roads all over the world, the red brick cement houses all over the world, the heated kang in the north and other changes in people's livelihood, these are all enough to change history.

As for other things Liu Chen's great achievements, including education reform, imperial examination selection, tax reform, marriage law reform, etc., all vividly demonstrate Liu Chen's wisdom and martial arts. There are also the emergence of sweet potatoes, potatoes and corn, and artifacts such as curved plows, horseshoes and stirrups are now available. Technological inventions such as glass, telescopes, astronomical telescopes, etc., have brought the man into a new world.

This world has long lost the corruption of the past. The man in the past was like a terminally ill old man with half a foot on the door of death.

But now The great Han Dynasty, that is, the young and middle-aged people who are reborn, full of vitality and vitality, are undergoing vigorous reforms and development.

All of this was made possible by Liu Chen, the former King of Changshan, now the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, and the Emperor of the Han Dynasty. Created by the power of the emperor!

This is a king who truly single-handedly changed the decay of the late Han Dynasty, turned the tide, and made great achievements that are not inferior to those of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty!

Even Zhuge Liang, Lu Xun and other proud men of heaven and pillars of the country, even if they are each With the arrogance of a genius, he still felt inferior to the Han Emperor Liu Chen for his brilliance and martial prowess!

It is no wonder that with Zhou Yu and Zhou Gongjin's talents, he would exclaim"Why is Yu born when he is born" at the beginning, and even more lamented later. Why not show that you are convinced!

Once, because the Yuan family was defeated at the hands of the Han Emperor, scholars all over the world rose up to attack it, but now they are all silent. This is not because they are afraid of the authority of the Han Emperor. Since ancient times, scholars have always been the most hard-core. They were shocked by Liu Chen's wisdom and prowess, and by Liu Chen's changes in people's livelihoods all over the world!

This is a truly wise ruler, a wise ruler who can't bear to criticize even the rotten scholars, and is not qualified to comment.!

The common people admire Liu Chen from the bottom of their hearts, rather than fearing the authority of Emperor Liu Chen, whose authority can determine life and death with just one word. This can be seen from the longevity plaques set up for Liu Chen in every household! He who wins the hearts of the people wins the world!

Liu Chen implemented this statement thoroughly!

The people are the most important, the country is second, and the king is the least!

As the emperor of the Han Dynasty, Liu Chen did not suppress such remarks, but adhered to his own self, for the sake of the people of the world, and for the country and the country.

Such people set an example by setting an example. , is really an example to the world!

As the saying goes, if you treat me as a national scholar, I will repay you as a national scholar!

Liu Chen treats others with sincerity and shows himself as an emperor. How can this not make the world's scholars admire? How can he not let the world Civil and military officials were impressed? How could the people of the world not be impressed?

Today, the Han Dynasty, with clear seas and clear rivers, peaceful country and people, and a bright and bright world, was just like the rising sun, full of vitality and bright!

Ten days later, they finally arrived at Guangling Station with smooth sailing. Zhuge Liang bid farewell to Lu Xun. He was about to transfer to a boat in the Yangtze River and sail upstream.

Lu Xun strongly invited Zhuge Liang to go to Jiangdong for a reunion so that he could show his friendship as a landlord. Unfortunately, Zhuge Liang was thinking about the war in Yizhou, so he declined and left..The two said goodbye to Guangling, one went west to Yizhou, and the other continued south to Jiangdong.
