Chapter 117: Build high walls, store grain widely, delay claiming the title of king, ten years of great governance!

Outside the Wumen Gate of the Imperial Palace.

It is already afternoon!

The sunlight was mottled on the stone road, and the light and shadow were intertwined.

Lu Jiaxuan stood alone, watching the Lu Family Army under his command enter in an orderly manner.

Liu Wen and Wei Gao walked down slowly from the city tower.

Liu Wen greeted first: "Lu Shuai!"

Wei Gao shouted in a muffled voice: "Brother-in-law."

Lu Jiaxuan turned around when he heard the sound, his gaze falling gently on the two.

Liu Wen hurriedly bowed, his gestures showing respect.

Wei Gao dodged a bit, as if he had something difficult to say.

Lu Jiaxuan had a smile on the corner of his mouth:

"That little girl Wei Yue went to the Lu Mansion early in the morning, why didn't you, the father, go to see her?"

Before Lu Chen entered the palace, he specifically asked Wei Yue to go to the Lu Mansion to find Lu Chen's mother.

Wei Yue was also tired for a day and shouldn't have been running around with him.

Wei Gao sighed and said: "It's not that I'm afraid that the eldest nephew and daughter will be angry, the daughter is a bit guilty, and the eldest nephew is really a bit afraid."

"Brother-in-law, you don't know, when Shenzhou governs the army, he is completely two people from usual."

Hearing this, Lu Jiaxuan already understood.

This entry into the capital, although Liu Wen and others carefully planned and strategized.

But as a father, he could naturally understand Wei Gao's difficulties and considerations in hiding Wei Yue.

Wei Gao cleared his throat and said: "Brother-in-law, do you dare to go home to see sister?"

Hearing this, Lu Jiaxuan touched his beard involuntarily, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

He also hid this matter from Lu Chen's mother.

Lu Jiaxuan and Wei Gao looked at each other, both speechless.

"Headache!"

Seeing this, Liu Wen interjected at the right time, his smile carrying a bit of comfort:

"I believe Miss Wei and the mistress are both people who understand righteousness and will eventually understand the hidden difficulties."

Lu Jiaxuan pondered for a moment, finally let go of the distractions in his heart, and turned to ask seriously:

"Mr. Liu, in your opinion, how will Shenzhou lay out this chess game next?"

Liu Wen was in charge of money and food in the Lu Family Army before, and his status was extremely high.

Liu Wen smiled slightly and said modestly: "Lu Shuai is serious, how can Liu Wen dare to bear the title of 'Mr.'."

"Plotting to change the dynasty is not an easy task. The timing has not yet arrived. The day we assisted the Eighth Prince to escape from the capital, we had already planted the seeds of this game. After all, usurping the throne is not a good name."

"It's different if Zhou Cheng is here. If he is here, this is just a family matter of Daqing, and it will not hinder the Shaobao."

He paused and continued:

"The Shaobao has no intention of the world, but he cannot bear to see the people suffer. Everything is decided by the Shaobao, and as a servant, I dare not speculate."

Hearing this, Lu Jiaxuan nodded slightly.

Shenzhou has been dedicated to the Dao and transcending the world since he was a child.

"The land of Jiangnan is rich, and the aristocratic families and local tyrants are intertwined, and the Zhou family of Daqing has also been emperor for four hundred years and has raised scholars for many years. This network has been woven for a thousand years and is deeply rooted. If it is forcibly uprooted, I am afraid it will plunge the people of Jiangnan into deep water."

"War, in the final analysis, is a population war, an economic war."

"And the north has been the heart of the world since ancient times. The north has been the center of the world since ancient times, and the capital of the Daqing Dynasty in the past also sat here."

"Looking back at the era of Emperor Jing, he adopted the strategy of Master Zhu to vigorously develop Jiangnan, making this land and the capital known as the two capitals, prosperous for a time."

Wei Gao nodded; the prosperity of the north before was not inferior to the capital of Jiangnan, and it had the reputation of two capitals.

"However, it is a pity that after Master Zhu passed away, those policies that were originally beneficial to the country and the people and full of foresight were abolished by Emperor Jing one by one. If it weren't for this, Daqing might have already possessed the majestic strength to unify the four countries."

"The founding emperor's taking of the world also started from the north and swept the world, that famous national policy, build high walls, store grain widely, delay claiming the title of king."

Zhang Wen continued: "After fifteen years of recuperation, the economy of the north has recovered, which can be considered as building high walls."

"Looking at the current dynasty, the monarchs of Qianyuan, Han, Chu, and Northern Wind are not things in the pool, each has its own merits, not inferior to the heroic masters of the previous dynasty."

"Qianyuan did not annex Han and Chu in one fell swoop, but it also shows that in the troubled times, the tide of annexation has temporarily slowed down, or it will usher in a rare period of peace."

"After the storm in the capital subsides, the world may enter a short period of tranquility, which is a good opportunity for governance and accumulation, possibly for ten years."

Liu Wen's voice was low but revealed unquestionable firmness, and continued:

"Ten years later, the world will usher in unprecedented chaos, the scale and tragedy of which may exceed any period in history."

Liu Wen said with a slightly excited expression: "What is an emperor of Daqing, if the Shaobao wants to sit, he will sit, sweeping away the masters of the five countries."

"Unify the world and achieve a great cause for thousands of years."

Lu Jiaxuan sighed and said: "The people suffer when it rises, and the people suffer when it falls."

The rise and fall of the world, the most bitter is the common people, the struggle for the world, the most bitter is still the common people.

Lu Jiaxuan seemed to understand Liu Wen's deep meaning and asked:

"Mr., do you mean to govern separately from north and south from now on, each governing their own affairs?"

Liu Wen smiled and shook his head, explaining:

"It is not a simple north-south division. The matter of the capital this time, the one hundred thousand Lu Family Army going south, has another deep meaning, which is to capture Zhou Xuan's Hexi land and establish workshops there to promote economic exchanges between the north and south, so that both population and economy can step up to a new level. In this way, not only can the connection between the north and south be strengthened, but it can also lay the foundation for the overall situation in the future."

Wei Gao was a warrior and didn't understand.

Only understood two sentences.

Within ten years, the world will stabilize, and all countries will recuperate.

Ten years later, the real decisive battle begins.

Liu Wen smiled:

"Following the Dao of Heaven and governing all directions is the Son of Heaven. There are five countries in the world, four Sons of Heaven, and one Empress. Who is the true dragon Son of Heaven?"

"We just want the Shaobao to be an emperor who has never been seen in three thousand years."

"The first time in three thousand years, the sun and moon reopen to unify the world."

Wei Gao listened with a surging heart.

Although Lu Jiaxuan was steady, his eyes still revealed a bit of worry, and he said slowly:

"Currently, Qianyuan and Zhou Xuan of Hexi have joined forces, forming a direct threat to the capital, and Northern Wind is also watching from the shadows, the situation is indeed very severe."

Liu Wen didn't care:

"With the Shaobao here, the Lu Family Army will be invincible."

"With iron armor, with the Shaobao, what is the Commander worried about."

Liu Wen looked at this capital, which was like gold-plated in the sun, and said leisurely:

"The Shaobao has been dormant for fifteen years, and now it is time to let the people of the world hear the dragon's roar!"

The three of them didn't speak.

Watching the soldiers of the Lu Family Army walk into the palace.

It's time!

To settle everything in the capital!

…………

…………

【You stepped into this brilliant and magnificent palace again, and as far as you could see, there were palaces standing, extremely luxurious.】

【White jade as a hall, gold as a horse, glazed tiles, golden nanmu.】

【Three thousand beauties in the harem, showing the prosperity of the prosperous age.】

【This place is the peak of Daqing's power, the place that men dream of, holding the power of the world when awake, and lying on the knees of beauties when drunk.】

【You just shook your head indifferently and chanted: "White jade like cicadas are all illusions, the blue sky pointing at the moon also becomes empty."】

【In your eyes, the prosperity of the world is just a dream, far less pure and transcendent than cultivating the Dao in the mountains.】

【Crossing the solemn and solemn Wumen Gate, the scouts in front reported that the situation in the Fengtian Hall had changed suddenly, and the three forces had started fighting.】

【Your expression did not change, you nodded lightly and said: "Seal the palace, anyone who resists will be killed without mercy."】

【Walking along the central axis, the Taihe Gate and Taihe Hall appeared one by one; they are both symbols of supreme imperial power and the center of today's storm.】

【The outline of the Fengtian Hall became clearer and clearer, but what greeted you was not the solemnity of the past, but a shocking and tragic scene—blood and wailing intertwined.】

【The former great hall turned into a Shura field, blood flowing everywhere, corpses lying everywhere, broken limbs and arms, too horrible to look at.】
