I’m The King Chapter 1238: : Carry on the past and open up the future (one hundred and twenty-eight) death should be like this

Jicheng Avenue is definitely a major landscape of Jicheng now. Originally, this road stretched from the east gate to the palace of Jicheng. The majestic Dahan Palace in the distance, and since the reconstruction and expansion project of Jicheng, this avenue was the first to start construction. Due to the expansion of the city, this avenue has now been extended by nearly half, and its width has doubled compared to the original . In the middle is a wide main road, which can accommodate four carriages driving side by side. However, because of the king's suggestion, this main road is divided into two with yellow paint in the middle. Regardless of the direction, it is only allowed to keep to the right drive. At first, the people of Jicheng were puzzled by this regulation, thinking that our great king is too lenient, and there are regulations on the other side of the road. However, after several months of implementation of the regulations, people suddenly realized that such a Small changes actually made the passage of this avenue much smoother.

This main road named Han Road by Gao Yuan was originally one of the busiest roads in Jicheng. I don't see this kind of scene anymore.

On both sides of the main road, there are rows of evergreen trees several meters high with luxuriant branches and leaves, and the canopy is like clouds. The space is dotted with dots of flowers, and behind the flower beds are rows of merchant shops.

At the beginning of the reconstruction, Han Dao was taken as the key reconstruction object. All the houses were demolished and rebuilt to a uniform specification. The uniform three-story buildings stood on both sides of Han Dao like two neat armies. These two rows of houses, together with the Han Road in the middle, are also the application of the latest technology in the construction of the Han Dynasty. The previous wooden and stone structures were abandoned, and all of them were replaced with reinforced concrete structures.

Guo Quan invented the application of cement, the invention of this hardened road surface, in the process of building the east-west traffic artery. It greatly reduced the cost of hardening the road. In the past, he wanted to make the road solid and not afraid of rain and snow. The high cost was the most troublesome thing for Guo Quan. Cement successfully solved this problem. At that time, a master craftsman proposed to combine steel bars and cement as the backbone of the bridge, and the piers have also been proved in practice, which made Dahan a big step forward in the history of architecture, and the speed was greatly accelerated.

Gao Yuan was greatly surprised by the invention and application of this technology, you know. These two things have nothing to do with him at all, but something invented or experimented by craftsmen themselves in practice.

Developing people's wisdom has always been what Gao Yuan wanted.

These two technologies were immediately ordered by Gao Yuan to be applied to the Han Road and the buildings on both sides.

Gao Yuan's order is of course not just to show off his prestige and grandeur. You must know that Han Dao, as a landmark building of the Han Dynasty, will play an important role in promoting these two technologies in the future. In fact, The same is true. After the completion of Han Road, houses with cement and cement frame structures were quickly popularized in Jicheng, so that the construction of new cities around the old city basically adopted these two new achievements.

The cement hardened road in Jicheng has been continuously expanding. Gao Yuan estimates that by the end of this year, the roads in the new and old towns of Jicheng will be hardened. From then on, they will bid farewell to the situation of being covered in dust on sunny days and muddy on rainy days. A clean and tidy Han capital will be presented to the world.

For the merchants on both sides of Han Road, today is a rather special day. Because three days ago, they received a notice that today, all businesses on both sides of Han Road will suspend business. When they got up early in the morning, the merchants were surprised to find that on both sides of the road, the heavily armed Young Guard soldiers stood upright like javelins on both sides of the road. What surprised them even more was that all the soldiers' helmets were pinned A sober white flower.

From the beginning of the palace to the distant place, all of them have been under martial law. The bustling Han Road in the past is empty today. Slowly, crowds began to gather in front of the merchants. The passage in front of the door was full of people walking, and gradually, everyone finally knew what day it was today.

The coffin of Guo Quan, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry of the Han Dynasty, returned to Beijing today.

Guo Quan's sense of existence to the people of Jicheng is too weak, but the case of the Ministry of Industry a few days ago has given the people of Jicheng a fresh start. Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, this is the first time that the big man has had a public trial and executed a high-ranking official This unprecedented event naturally made the people of Jicheng remember the left servant of the Ministry of Industry.

However, the Ministry of Industry just came out with a major case. How could the Minister of the Ministry of Industry receive such high-standard treatment after his death? In the midst of surprise and puzzlement, everyone asked and asked each other. Guo Quan's deeds were passed on word of mouth bit by bit, and began to spread on both sides of Han Dao.

"Oh, that's how it is!"

"The two avenues were built by this Guo Shangshu!"

"He has always been at the forefront of the construction site, rarely sitting in the office!"

"Speaking of which, this is a good official!"

Buzzing discussions began to sound on both sides of the quiet street.

At the moment when the sun was rising, the melodious and long horns and the sound of bells and drums sounded from the direction of the palace. A group of people slowly came out from the direction of the palace. As the group of people marched, the people on both sides of the Han Road were quiet. They got down, because the one who walked in the front was wearing a royal robe and a crown. Although they didn't recognize it, they naturally knew that it was the Lord of the Han Dynasty, King Gaoyuan of Han.

Gao Yuan is holding a five-year-old child in his hand. The child looks a little timid, with his mouth tightly pursed, and from time to time he looks up at the tall man who is holding him tightly. Behind them is the political discussion of the Zhengshitang, and behind them are the officials of various ministries and officials in Beijing, and finally, there is a team of hundreds of members of parliamentarians. Among these people, except Gao Yuan, everyone is in the official hat. A plain white silk flower was pinned on it.

Everyone guessed his identity since he was a boy. He should be the son of Guo Quan, Minister of the Ministry of Industry. It is said that this Minister of the Ministry of Industry was only 55 years old when he was under the concubine of the king. Married a wife.

Gao Yuan personally took all the civil and military officials and infantry out of the city for more than ten miles to meet Guo Quan's coffin, to show his gratitude to this outstanding veteran.

The send-off team led by Zheng Jun stopped at the outskirts of the city. It was only a year or so since he last visited the king in Jicheng, but the changes in Jicheng made him dizzy. , instead of neatly built houses like squares, the avenue under your feet extends to the end of your field of vision, and you can faintly see the faint shadow of the royal palace in the distance. Jicheng has almost doubled in size. From there, you can clearly see the building of the palace. Beside him was the carriage carrying Guo Quan's coffin. He had already been notified that Admiral Wang led all civil and military officials out of the city to pick up the coffin.

"Old Guo, it's really worth living for someone like you!" Zheng Jun was very envious of this honor, thinking to himself that if he died, it would be absolutely impossible to get this honor, But thinking about Guo Quan's achievements over the past ten years, I'm not jealous. Not everyone can do this kind of persistence, at least I can't.

While walking on the road, Zheng Jun received the shocking news of personnel changes in the court. In Zheng Jun's memory, this was the first time that a big man punished a high-ranking official so severely since he conquered the Eastern Army.

Wu Kui's life is not good. If it wasn't for Guo Quan's sudden death, maybe the king wouldn't be so angry, or because the king hurt Guo Quan so desperately, and the other officials of the Ministry of Industry who stayed behind did such unbearable things. Come on, comparing the two, you can imagine the king's anger. If it was normal time, Wu Kui might not have lost his head. Of course, this is just Zheng Jun's conjecture. He thinks more about why Wu Kui was executed so quickly. As an old politician, he also smells some other meanings from it. I'm afraid there are some unknown things in it. Hidden secrets.

He shook his head, putting the thought behind him.

A battalion of young guards has already guarded this area. The people entering the city will have to take a detour today, but this scene has attracted the people entering the city. They stop and watch in groups. He looked curiously at Zheng Jun and his party.

Gao Yuan and his party appeared in his field of vision, and Zheng Jun stopped his mind and strode forward to meet them.

"Your Majesty~IndoMTL.com~ Zheng Jun, Governor of West Liao, respectfully send Guo Shangshu Lingshu back to Beijing!" Zheng Jun paid homage.

Gao Yuan nodded, and fixed his eyes on the coffin on the carriage: "Is Mr. Guo going peacefully?"

"Back to Your Majesty, Mr. Guo walked very peacefully, and there was still a smile on his face when he left." Zheng Jun laughed at the face leaning on the reclining chair with a smile on his face as if he was asleep. He raised a box with both hands, "This is the box that Mr. Guo threw in his arms when he was about to leave. It contains Mr. Guo's painstaking efforts over the past ten years."

Gao Yuan took the box, and slowly pulled out the thick booklet bound with thread from the inside, and slowly turned over the pages. The gains and losses of experience in roads and water conservancy, and specific information on various inventions. Gao Yuan's eyes became moist looking at the chicken scratch-like handwriting.

Striding up to the coffin, Gao Yuan cupped his fists and bowed deeply to the ground: "Guo Quan, I'm here to pick you up!"

Gao Yuan stood up, turned around and picked up the five-year-old baby beside him, and put him on the shaft of the carriage. He took the rein of the horse with his own hands, and walked forward slowly. Behind him, Jiang Jiaquan and other ministers Go forward one by one, line up on both sides of the coffin, hold the coffin with your hands, and walk forward along the Han Road. (to be continued...)
