Chapter 745 Ningshuo Palace
On New Year’s Eve, a large team arrived in Pingyang.
When setting off from Bianliang, this team only had a thousand people.
When passing through Yingchuan, there were 500 more soldiers.
Then they passed through Luoyang, entered the Luoshui River Valley, and then went north to Shaanxi City. The team became larger and larger, almost exceeding four thousand.
By the time they arrived in Pingyang, there was already an army of five thousand infantry and cavalry.
Outside Jianchun Gate in the east of the city, heavy snow filled the sky, and all officials and generals prostrated themselves on the ground.
After a while, a graceful and childish woman got out of the car. Surrounded by maids, she looked at Liu Han's capital with curiosity.
A city about the same size as Luoyang is much better than the dirty and messy Bianliang!
Yu Wenjun had a slight smile on his face.
She quietly stretched out her hand, as if the snowflakes in Pingyang were more beautiful than those in Bianliang.
It is surrounded by mountains and rivers and is majestic. She likes this city very much because it symbolizes her husband's achievements.
She quickly got on the carriage again, and was led into Ningshuo Palace by Xun Yi, the servant of the Liang Kingdom -
Xun Yi was the son of Xun Zu, the former governor of Xuzhou.
The Xun group had close relations with the Pingyuan Fahrenheit family, the Peiguo Liu family and even the Laoling Shi family. Finally, with persuasion, Pengcheng was "peacefully liberated".
After handing over power, Xun Zu and his family traveled south to build Ye, but he left one son in the north. He used his identity as a Yingchuan nobleman to serve in the Liang Kingdom and took up the post of Taipu Cheng. He was Xun Yi.
Ningshuo Palace is the original Liuhan Palace in Pingyang, and Shao Xun just ordered the name to be changed.
If nothing unexpected happens, this palace city will be preserved for a long time. When Shao Xun himself inspected the barbarians in Hexi and northern Bingzhou, this was a very good place to live and work.
The carriage stopped outside Changhemen.
It happened that a large group of barbarian chieftains came out of the palace gate, and they were suddenly surprised when they saw the large guard of honor and the chariot that was almost comparable to the queen's heavy chariot.
The official who led them out of the palace introduced them softly, and everyone was shocked. They all fell to the ground and shouted "Mr. Yan".
After hearing this in the car, Yu Wenjun covered his mouth and smiled, feeling a little proud: My husband is really a famous hero in this world, and even the barbarians surrendered to him.
Most of the guards stopped outside Changhemen and dispersed, going back to their homes. Only a thousand Liang Palace guards escorted Yu Wenjun forward.
When I passed through the closed door, I could still hear the "whispered conversations" of the barbarians.
"The Yan family is the wife of the Jin Emperor, right? After the late emperor died, Liang Gong married the Jin Emperor's wife and was made the new master."
"That should be true. How could the nobles of Luoyang listen to Duke Liang if he didn't want to marry the wife of Emperor Jin? I think back then, when the Xiongnu Xin Danyu was in his prime, he had to marry the old Danyu's gray-haired wife in order to successfully succeed to the throne. "
"Didn't Liu Cong marry his stepmother, Queen Shan? Everything in the world is the same."
"Yes, it's really the same."
Yu Wenjun. After hearing this in the carriage, I felt angry for a while, and then burst into laughter.
This bunch of barbarians are vulgar, ignorant, and ridiculously stupid.
"Stop talking, stop talking, it won't be good if Queen Sheep hears it." Someone said proudly: "You don't know yet, right? The person in the car whose surname is Sheep is the surname of Emperor Jin. Liang Gongda Shanyu wanted to Power, was forced to marry her, and was supported by Shan Yuting's nobles..."
The voice gradually faded away, and the smile on Yu Wenjun's face gradually faded away.
Yang Xianrong came before her.

The lineup brought by Yu Wenjun is still very large.
In addition to herself and the four concubines, the four wives of the Le family, the Lu family, Da Wang, and Xiao Wang, as well as the Song family, the Jing family, the Zheng family, and the Guo family who have no "establishment" ——Mr. Pei also came, but she went to Wenxi to visit relatives on the way, and will not come to Pingyang until next year.
Following them were a large number of Liang Palace officials, craftsmen, guards and other personnel.
The General's Mansion and Liang Guo also sent many staff, officials and their respective staff to come.
Celebrating the New Year at Liu Cong’s house this year!
The car drove past the two palaces of Guangji and Jianshi, among thousands of palaces and palaces. All the palace people and soldiers they saw fell down and all the officials saluted.
Yu Wenjun, who was wearing a snow-white fox fur coat and looked quite elegant, got off the car in front of Zhaode Hall.
“I heard that Zhaode Hall is the main hall of the harem, isn’t it appropriate?” She looked at the majestic and majestic hall, and was a little surprised that it was no worse than Luoyang Palace. It was even newer and better, so she hesitated a little. .
Tai Pu Cheng Xun Yi was silent after hearing this.
After Liang Gong captured Pingyang, he could of course seal up the palace, leaving nothing to gain and no luck to his wife. He registered the money and women and sent them to Luoyang to be presented to the emperor to show his loyalty to the emperor and his patriotism. .
But he did not do this. He distributed part of the money and concubines to the meritorious ministers, and lived directly in the Han Palace to meet Queen Liu Han. Now that the matter has come to this, what's the point of being coy about it anymore?
Can the concubine who got into the general’s bed be taken back?
Can you spit out the money that went into the sergeant’s pocket?
Even the staff have been given a lot of good stuff. They come from a wealthy background. Are you willing to donate it?
"If Madam feels that Zhaode Hall is too empty, you can stay temporarily in Huiguang Hall." Xun Yi cupped his hands and said.
"Where does Queen Hui live?" Yu Wenjun asked.
"Wenming Hall."
"Is this the main hall of the harem?"
"One of the two main halls, it is slightly inferior to Zhaode Hall and better than Huangyi and Huiguang Halls. "
Yu Wenjun was silent, and then he was a little confused. He wanted to say something, but couldn't.
Xun Yi observed the words and said: "Liang Gong took the generals, assistants, and Chief Hu to go hunting. He will be back soon. He will stay in Zhaode Hall at night. He may have something to ask his wife..."
Yu Wenjun responded with a blushing face and entered the Zhaode Hall.
The palace people who followed her looked left and right, and were greatly surprised. The decoration and furnishings of Zhaode Hall of Liu Han were even better than those of Guanfeng Hall of Bianliang.
"Just don't go back to Bianliang." Mrs. Guanqiu withdrew his gaze and said happily: "Zhaode Hall is no worse than Zhaoyang Hall in Luoyang."
"It sounds like you have lived there before Same as Zhaoyang Palace. What, you are the emperor’s concubine?” Xiao Yu joked.
Ms. Guanqiu's face turned red. Thinking of the scene where her young body was repeatedly manipulated by Liang Gong, she spat: "I only think about Mr. Lang, who wants to go to Luoyang."
Yu Wenjun coughed, and the four children stopped talking.
"Let's clean up the Zhaode Hall first. I don't know how long I will live here." She looked around and felt a little happy.
"Yes." The four little helpers quickly found the palace servants and issued orders one after another.
The old palace residents of Han Palace were transferred to other palaces, and most of the hundreds of large and small houses in Zhaode Hall were replaced by the accompanying palace residents of Liang Palace.
The pro-army troops temporarily stationed here also exchanged defense with the newly arrived commander Shi Wuli.
From this moment on, the force guarding the harem was replaced by a thousand Liang Palace guards, and the pro-army troops moved to Guangji, Jianshi and other palaces to guard. The furniture and furnishings were rearranged and replaced with styles familiar to Liang Gong.
Yu Wenjun came to the bedroom and made the bed with his own hands together with Mrs. Yin.
Mr.
While supervising the palace people to unload the palace utensils and eating utensils, Mrs. Guanqiu secretly sighed that this was not a real imperial court, and there were not even internal officials. They had to keep an eye on everything.
If that doesn't work, just choose some female officials.
A group of women worked like this all afternoon, and Zhaode Hall soon took on a new look.
Obviously there are no big changes, but it just gives people a warm feeling.
Yu Wenjun looked at all this with satisfaction, this was her and her husband’s home.
I love doing these things the most!
Military and political affairs are really annoying and make people sleepy. She just rushes to get things done and does her best.
******
The front hall of Ningshuo Palace is also busy.
Some cardinal officials moved to the side halls to the left and right of Guangji Hall to live and work, but most of them were near the royal road in front of the palace.
On the left side of Changhemen is Xiangguo Mansion, the former residence of Liu Can.
When Pingyang City was destroyed, all the servants and maidservants in Liu Can's mansion fled, and were later taken over by sergeants. Military adviser Zhang Bin lived here for a while.
Now he has moved out to make room for another person——
"Don't worry, gentlemen, I have taken care of the beginning and the end." Wang Yan got off the carriage and said with a smile: "Several armies attacked Pingyang and achieved a great victory that had not been seen in ZTE for more than ten years. The emperor was so happy that he renamed the Han Palace 'Ningshuo Palace' and gave it to Duke Liang."
Wen Qiao followed him politely. Behind Wang Yan, he said: "Perhaps he will be the 'King of Liang' in a while?"
"It won't take long, the angel is already on the way." Wang Yan was radiant and smiled.
Wen Qiao was startled and said: "Won't Mr. Liang return to Luoyang to accept the canonization?"
"Dong Liang is not happy." At this point, Wang Yan was also a little depressed and could only sigh. : "The emperor is not happy either."
Wen Qiao nodded.
What else? Neither the emperor nor the powerful ministers wanted to meet each other, so this was the only way.
Furthermore, after experiencing the tens of thousands of people attending the conference a while ago, who dares to talk nonsense?
When the Xiongnu gained power, they fought and won many battles, and no one could control them. The Jin Dynasty was about to perish before its eyes, and the number of well-dressed scholars who crossed south was as great as an ox's hair. More than ten years later, Liang Gong fought bravely and conquered the enemy's capital. Who else can match this prestige?
Wen Qiao remembered that Liang Gong proposed to evaluate the family status of Lu.
This is not a trivial matter. In fact, it is related to the interests of the scholars and is not trivial at all. But when Wen Qiao talked with his friends, he saw a face that looked indignant, but did not dare to openly object, and finally swallowed his breath.
Prestige, prestige, the prestige of conquering the enemy's capital suppressed everything.
The dissatisfied scholars could only be forced to go underground, dormant silently, waiting for the right time.
After entering the Prime Minister's Mansion, Wang Yan glanced left and right and nodded slightly.
The chief general Zheng Long breathed a sigh of relief.
Wang Junsi is a top scholar and naturally has a very discerning eye. He is satisfied. It seems that Liu Can still has some taste.
After finishing this matter, he quietly resigned, then took three steps and two steps at a time, passed through the Changhe Gate, and came to Yousili Temple and Yushi Temple on the right.
There are only these three institutions directly in front of Ningshuo Palace, which indicates the order of Liu Han's real power figures.
The State of Xiangguo was specially established by Liu Cong. It was originally intended to be a posthumous posthumous gift to officials with outstanding merits. Later, in order to pass the throne to his biological son, the power of the Prime Minister was realized and Liu Can took charge of it himself.
During the Jiaping period, Liu Cong "made a large number of official officials" and established Qigong. At the same time, he also appointed Yushi Dafu and Zhou Mu, both of whom were Yagong.
The Ministry of Officials was also provincial-level and changed to "Cao Shangshu of the left and right". These two official positions, together with the left and right ministers and the left and right shanyufu, are all "ranked in rank".
This is a regime that combines Hu and Han, and the official system has changed a lot since Liu Yuan's time.
Liu Cong is not a waste, on the contrary, he has certain abilities. He has been thinking about how to stabilize his Hu-Han dualist country - this will also be a problem that Shao Xun will face.
When Liu Cong reformed, Liu Han was at its peak and owned most of Bingzhou, part of Guanzhong, part of Henan, part of Sizhou, almost all of Jizhou and Qingzhou.
At that time, the left and right bureaucracies were in charge of the Han people, each responsible for more than 200,000 households, and there was an internal history for every 10,000 households.
The left and right Chanyus were in charge of the Hu people, including the Xiongnu, and each of them had hundreds of thousands of descendants.
It can be seen from this that the Yousili Temple is definitely an official position with real power. Although the position is inferior, the real power is far superior. Therefore, the Yousili Temple is located near Changhe Gate.
You Sili Temple was left to Zuo Changshi Pei Shao and his staff, and Yushi Temple was given to You Sima Yangchen.
Across the street, there are Zuosili Temple and Zuoguanglu Temple, each housing many officials.
There is also Shanyu Terrace in the western suburbs of Pingyang, which is the office of Liu Han's Great Sima, Great Chanyu, and Chanyu's left and right assistants. Now it is occupied by a group of people headed by Su Shuyan, the Chief Protector of the Barbarians - Later There will be new people coming in. After all, there are many houses in Shanyutai. Like the Xiangguo Mansion in the city, it is one of Liu Can's offices.
The Chao congratulatory officials who came here from Bianliang will also temporarily stay in Shanyutai, which is equivalent to a Guanyi.
Zheng Long felt relieved as he watched Pei Shao chatting and laughing with his friends, and the assistants were busy moving in a large number of files, books, manuscripts, seals and various office supplies.
It is really great to get a fully functional capital city that has not been damaged by the war.
"The king is ordered by heaven to start a business and prosper the country, obey the will of heaven, and support the people..." Zheng Long's sharp ears suddenly laughed when he heard the chatter of several officials in Zuo Changshi's Mansion. .
After Pingyang was captured, the morale of everyone in the General's Office and the Liang Kingdom reached a new level - not only the morale of the sergeants who received the reward was high, but the officials were also very excited.
You may have opinions about Mr. Liang in your heart, but his achievements are real and undeniable.
Zheng Long is almost certain that these officials are dissatisfied with Liang Gong, but they are also very satisfied with Liang Gong.
No one is perfect, what should we do? We can only look at the whole thing.
Mr. Liang abused our officials thousands of times, but I still endure the discomfort in my heart and serve as an official for you...
Achievements and prestige overwhelm dissatisfaction. This is the reality of the officialdom under Mr. Liang's rule.
The sky is getting dark, and the Pingyang lanterns are beginning to light up.
After the snowflakes stopped for a long time, they fell from the sky again, adding a different color to the upcoming New Year.
At this moment, hundreds of civil and military officials and tens of thousands of soldiers inside and outside Pingyang raised their heads.
This snow seems to be a gift for the new conquerors of Pingyang.
