After the family of three had dinner together, Xiao Yu ran away. He said he wanted to go back to the house to study at night, but he probably went crazy to find his two younger brothers.
Reading is good, but it cannot erase children's nature of playing, otherwise they will become nerds.
The little guy is already ten years old, so naturally he can no longer sleep with his parents and have his own place.
night.
Lu Yunyan nestled in Xiao Yuan's arms, resting her head on his shoulder and drawing circles on his body with her fingers.
"Brother Wang, I miss you so much"
"I'm back, aren't I?" Xiao Yuan smiled warmly and looked at the person in his arms. The flush on his face had not faded, making her even more charming.
I still remember those beautiful, watery eyes just now, which were blurry and moving.
The two whispered love words.
After a while, Xiao Yuan changed the topic and said: "The children are getting older. I thought about it, why not build a Wenhua Garden to accommodate Peng Shuang's children, Su Yi's children, and those children of the civil and military ministers?" Ah, we all went to school together, from the dormitory level to the university level."
Lu Yunyan said: "Brother Wang means to let Qingluo, Yu'er and the others also go to Wenhua Garden?"
"Don't always lock your children in the palace, otherwise they will become flowers in the greenhouse, unable to withstand the wind and rain." Xiao Yuan said: "Of course, if the academic examination of this Wenhua Garden fails, what should I do? For example, From the college level to the university level, if you can't pass it, continue studying, including Yu'er and the others."
Lu Yunyan thought for a while and had no opinion on this: "That's good, the children will have more playmates, but brother Wang, now that the mountains and rivers are unified and the world belongs to Qin, shouldn't we decide the capital? Now we can build Wenhua Garden in Qinzhou ?"
"Well? That's right." Xiao Yuan really didn't expect this, and suddenly said: "Let's talk about it later. But having said that, when the children have completed their studies, they still have to travel when they should. If you have to join the army, then join the army."
Hearing this, Lu Yunyan subconsciously looked up at him. She had no objection to Wenhuayuan, but she couldn't help but feel bad if it was too difficult for her child.
Xiao Yuan stroked her black hair and said with a smile: "Okay, we will talk about these things later, let Yu'er and the others grow up on their own."
"Yeah." Lu Yunyan didn't refute, she nestled in the arms of her beloved man, full of happiness, and fell asleep quickly.
Early morning the next day.
Xiao Yuan was wearing a black royal robe, a royal crown on his head, nine strings of jade beads on his forehead, and the King of Qin sword hanging on his waist, and walked towards the court meeting hall.
The ministers had already arrived. They were still whispering to each other. There was a buzzing discussion. When they saw Xiao Yuan, the discussion stopped instantly. Then they all knelt down and saluted: "I will see you, Your Majesty. I will be your king for ten thousand years!"
"Your Majesty, stand down." Xiao Yuan waved his hand casually, walked through the middle, and sat down on the king's chair directly above.
"Thank you, Your Majesty——"
The ministers stood up and took their places in the train.
Then, Ding Rong was the first to stand up, bowed his hands and said: "Your Majesty, your great talent and great strategy, led our Great Qin soldiers to kill the Dongling rebels. Now we have conquered the whole world and cleared up the world! I, my Majesty, I wish you to take the throne of the Emperor!"
As he spoke, he knelt down and looked excited.
Jiang Yi was the second one to stand up. He also knelt down and said seriously: "My lord, I also kowtow to you. Now that the four seas are united, your Majesty will rule the country. If you don't honor him, I'm afraid everyone will be uneasy."
When Xiao Yuan returns to the capital, the first thing he does when he returns to the capital is that the ministers urge him to proclaim himself emperor. There is no doubt about this.
Before he could speak, Prime Minister Liu Yuzhi followed him out of the queue, knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, now that all the wars and chaos are over, the world is at peace, and the people are all looking forward to a stable life. Your Majesty, you should proclaim yourself emperor to fix the calendar."
Then came Yao Tingyu: "The Prime Minister's words are reasonable. The world has been decided. The matter of proclaiming the emperor is of vital importance. The king must not refuse any more. As the saying goes, the world cannot be without a king for a day."
"What Mr. Yao said is true. Your Majesty's accession to the throne is the most important matter today."
"Whether it is literary skills or military strategy, the king has far surpassed the previous monarchs. The king of the world is even more destined by destiny."
As several representative ministers came out, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty all knelt on the ground and said in unison: "Kowtow to your Majesty, please be honored by the Ninth Five-Year Plan and enter the throne of the Emperor."
Xiao Yuan had previously disagreed with the matter of proclaiming himself emperor because he did not want to split the country with the Spirit King. Now that they have unified the world, there is naturally nothing to say.
He said directly: "Everyone, please get up. This matter really needs to be discussed."
"Your Majesty, Shengming——" All the ministers were overjoyed and stood up one after another.
Xiao Yuan added: "Although the world has been settled, the Qin State is located in the northwest after all. Whether Qinzhou can continue to be the capital of the country needs to be decided. Therefore, the capital issue is also a top priority. Today, the court Let’s discuss this matter.”
After hearing this, people understood that this was to establish the capital of the empire, not just a corner of the city.
This matter is indeed of vital importance. As soon as Xiao Yuan finished speaking, the ministers couldn't help but started discussing in a low voice.
There are many factors that determine the location of a capital, including natural factors such as geographical location, mountains and rivers, transportation factors such as roads and water conservancy, human factors such as economy and culture, and people's livelihood, money, food, commerce and trade, etc.
It also includes military strategic location.
Soon, someone stood up and said sternly: "Your Majesty, I believe that Qinzhou is not only a place of royal power, but also of strategic importance. To the east is the Central Plains from Shanyu Pass, and to the west is the border fortress, which controls the world. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack, so it is the best choice for the capital.”
This is an old minister and a veteran of the Qin State. He has followed Xiao Yuan when he raised his army from Qinzhou. He may be very nostalgic and reluctant to leave this place.
To be honest, from the perspective of the whole world, Qinzhou is indeed no longer suitable for establishing a capital, although Xiao Yuan is not willing to give up.
"That's wrong." Sure enough, as soon as the old minister finished speaking, someone stood up and objected: "Although Qinzhou is the place where the king founded the country, in terms of the world, it can no longer be the capital of the empire. The Qin Dynasty has established the world, how can it stay in a corner again?"
"That's right." Dou Jianzhang stepped out and followed up: "If we make Xuanzhou the capital, it not only has a pleasant climate, but also has convenient water conservancy. There are many places where there is plenty of fish and rice. From here, we can control the south."
"It is ridiculous to make the capital south of the Yangtze River." Jiang Yi sneered: "How can we abandon the Central Plains and live in the water town? If the north is not peaceful, do we still need to use the navy to expedition to the north?"
With that said, Jiang Yi was afraid of making mistakes with her words, so she quickly saluted Xiao Yuan: "Of course, I'm not saying that there will be a rebellion in the north, it's just a metaphor."
Of course, this analogy is necessary. Xiao Yuan waved his hand to indicate that he didn't need to be polite.
Afterwards, more and more people came out, including civil servants and military generals, each expressing their own opinions.
The ministers said everything. Some were reluctant to leave Qinzhou, some from the Xuan Dynasty suggested making Xuanzhou the capital, and some talked about Jinzhou.
Not long after, Shangguan Wenruo stood up, bowed his hands and said: "I think that the best thing to do is to go to Beijing to establish the capital."
Shangjing was the former imperial capital.
"Shangjing is among the best in the world. It has a prosperous population and is well connected. It has the greatest advantages in terms of transportation, people's livelihood, and commerce."
"To the south of Shangjing, there is the important town of Yuyang; to the north there is Wuyang, which is used as a military garrison; to the west there is a garrison; and to the east there is a mountain pass barrier."
“Whether it’s military or political or cultural, it’s the best place.”
"And the imperial city is still there, so there is no need to build any more buildings."
