Because this big car shop is located inside the north gate, business is very slow. Because most of the camel caravans came from Ximen. The north is full of savage tribes, and there are no camel caravans anywhere.皚
This big car shop has a large courtyard, and the east courtyard is full of livestock sheds. The west courtyard is a quadrangle, and the middle of the south room is the gate. Can travel by carriage and horse. The other four sides are surrounded by houses.
The house is an adobe house with a thatched roof. The house is in some disrepair and is very patchy.
Zhuzhu gave him three taels of silver as money to stay in the hotel. As for meals, the camel team buys and makes their own fires to cook. The boss and the waiters were so happy that they all moved to the north row of houses in the east courtyard, leaving the west courtyard directly to Zhuzi and the others.
Zhuzhu is here to do something, and it is inconvenient to see so many people. Now I rent a small courtyard independently. Privacy is better. It is also easy to defend. Just close the door. Putting hidden whistles on the roofs on all sides will keep you safe.
After settling in, Zhu Zhu took Hong'er out to stroll around the streets of Shenyang.
Turning from the big car shop onto North-South Street, you will see a magnificent wooden archway with a plaque hanging on it that reads "Border of the Town".
The two took a closer look and found that it was built during the Yongle period.皚
Within the four gates of Shenyang City, there is a wooden archway.
At the street entrance facing each city gate, there is an archway, respectively: "Yongning" in the south of the city, which means guarding the eternal peace of the Central Plains; "Yingen" in the west of the city, which means to welcome the emperor's grace; and "Zhenbian" in the north of the city, which means guarding the eternal peace of the Central Plains. Guarding the northern border and intimidating the Mongolian tribes; "Jingbian" in the east of the city means pacifying the eastern border and subduing the Jurchen tribes.
Zhu Zhu and Hong'er walked and watched. I found that the North City was relatively desolate, but the further south I went, the buildings on both sides of the North and South Streets gradually became denser.
This north-south street is one of the main streets of Shenyang Acropolis. Together with Dongximen Street, it forms a cross-shaped main street.
North-South Street, especially the southern section, is located from the intersection to the south, including the Arms Bureau, the Preparatory Office, the Procuratorate, the Shenyang Guerrilla Office and the Qianbo Library.
After Nurhaci captured Shenyang, he planned to move the capital there.
The Jurchen capital of Jianzhou was successively located in Foala, Hetuala and other places. In the fifteenth year of Wanli, it moved to the city of Feala. Feala means Old City in Manchu. With the gradual development of Jianzhou, after unifying the Jurchens, Nurhachi targeted the Ming Dynasty.皚
With the gradual victory of the war against Ming. The move is not over yet. In June 1619 and September 1620, he moved to Jiefan and Sarhu respectively. Both locations have strategic geographical locations, providing military advantages that are easy to defend but difficult to attack. It is a military consideration in war.
Nurhaci, who moved around and built cities, moved his capital to Liaoyang in 1622. Liaoyang is the juncture of the plains and mountains of Liaodong and the intersection of Han and Manchu cultures. This move was the first time that the Later Jin Dynasty entered the area where Han people gathered.
Liaoyang was also the most developed city in Liaodong at this time, and the seat of Liaodong Town was in Liaoyang. After Nurhachi occupied Liaoyang City, he ordered his hair to be shaved. After capturing Liaoyang, he issued an order, "Those who surrender will not be killed." This means that those who surrender and shave their heads will be pardoned and not killed. However, the Han people became dissatisfied with orders such as shaving their hair and serving in the army, and began to resist. Various forms such as assassination, poisoning, and saping emerged in endlessly.
Out of fear, Nurhachi no longer lived in the old city of Liaoyang and chose to rebuild a new city. The newly built city was Tokyo City. Since then, Liaoyang has been divided into two parts: the old city and the new city. The old city is the city where Liaodong Town of the Ming Dynasty was originally located, and the new city is the newly built Tokyo city by Nurhachi for his own safety.
After the city of Tokyo was built, Nurhaci began to build the Tokyo Mausoleum area in Liaoyang in 1624, and moved the tombs of his grandfather, father, Fujin Yehenara clan and others to Liaoyang. Since then, the ancestral mausoleums in Liaoyang have been built.
Although the Manchu Qing Dynasty carried out extensive construction projects in Liaoyang, they did not stay there for a long time.
Four years later, in 1625, Nurhaci proposed moving the capital to Shenyang. He believed that Shenyang was "a place well connected in all directions... If you conquer Mongolia in the north, you can reach it in two or three days. If you conquer Korea in the south, you can enter it from Qinghe Road...". The main reason is that Shenyang has a better location and is conducive to expansion.皚
At this time, the princes, ministers, and officials of the Eight Banners had just settled down, repaired their mansions, and established the use of
Manor for Han slaves. None of them were willing to move the capital to Shenyang.
Seeing the fierce opposition from everyone, Nurhaci moved to Shenyang himself. The scholars and ministers saw that the old man had gone by himself. I had no choice but to move here. In this way, the Manchu and Qing political centers outside the customs were completely stabilized.
As Zhu Zhu walked, he whispered to Hong'er the secrets of the constant migration of slaves.
"Brother Zhuzi, let's put it this way, it hasn't been long since Jiannu moved to Shenyang." Hong'er said in surprise. This year is 1629, the second year of Chongzhen. It was only three years since Jiannu moved to Shenyang as the capital.
Zhu Zhu said: "Yes, in the tenth year of the Destiny, which was the fourth day of March in the fourth year of the Ming Dynasty (1625), Nurhaci moved the capital from Liaoyang to Shenyang. He renovated the east, west and south city walls, and built the Khan Palace and the Great Wall in the city. The Yamen were located at the southwest and southeast corners of the original cross street center of the Acropolis, sandwiching the north and south streets of the original Acropolis. Shenyang City was originally a cross-shaped city. After expansion, it became a tic-shaped city."
Hong'er asked: "In general, the north and south streets in cities are all government offices, and the east and west streets are commercial streets. Is this the same in Shenyang?"
Zhu Zhu said: "There shouldn't be any big changes in this. Jiannu has just left the savage society, so he naturally learned from the architectural layout of our Ming Dynasty."
"Brother Zhuzi, let's go shopping on East and West Street. See if there are any good things. Let's go and buy some good things to go back. This is also a kind of cover for our identity as businessmen."
Zhu Zhu smiled bitterly, he knew that girls all like to go shopping. Especially now that Xiaohong has a lover, wouldn't it be very romantic to take her lover shopping while she is deeply in love.
"Okay, let's go shopping and buy some good things."
The two of them walked all the way, and when they reached the intersection, they saw the Khan's Palace.
It doesn't look very grand from the palace gate, so it probably won't be too grand inside.
Zhuzi is someone who has entered the Forbidden City and Qianqing Palace. He had seen the palace of the Ming Dynasty, and then looked at the so-called Khan's Palace where slaves were built, and he felt like looking at a rich man from the countryside.
There are Eight Banners guards here wearing eight types of armor. It looked heavily guarded. In order not to cause trouble, Zhu Zhu took Hong'er and walked eastward after taking a few glances.皚
At this time, a boy of 17 or 18 years old came out of the palace gate with a few geshhars. Join the attendants waiting outside the door and get on your horse. Running towards Beicheng.
Zhu Zhu saw from the corner of his eye that this was a tall and lanky young man. This man has an elongated oval face, a thin and dark face, and a pair of small, somewhat slender eyes. The nose is straight and the expression is gloomy. The body is weak, but the eyes are small and bright.
The people around this man were all wearing white armor.
"Brother Zhuzi, judging from this man's clothes, he is the leader of the Zhengbai Banner. I didn't expect the leader of the Zhengbai Banner to be so young. It looks like he is not even twenty years old." Hong'er said softly to the side.
