Turbulent Times Chapter 764: North Korean Conflict

Wang Junlin and his party sat down to eat again, left the canopy, and were about to continue to the martial arts guild. Shen Guang led a team of guards and hurried up from the direction of the capital. The family invites you to enter the palace immediately to discuss matters."

Wang Junlin frowned, turned around and said to Nie Xiaoyu, "Take the four of them to the Wulin Guild! I'm going back to the capital first. Hmm! I think Senior Chong Yao can be the second elder of the Wulin Guild."

After finishing speaking, he ignored the protesting eyes of the worm monster, and hurried back to the capital surrounded by Shen Guang and his party.

…

…

The next day, in the Ziwei Hall of the Imperial Palace, the lengthy court meeting had been going on for half an hour. Wang Junlin also came to attend the court meeting today, but he kept silent. His appearance today was according to Yang Guang's order to move the capital for him It's something to shout about.

Everything that should be said has been said, and the court meeting has finally come to an end. Many old ministers such as Su Wei and Dugu Changsu are already feeling strenuous, and they are clearly about to be unable to stand up. up.

However, at this time, Yang Guang suddenly said: "Dear dears, I have one more thing to discuss with you..." Yang Guang wanted to inform everyone, but in the end he did not choose such an overbearing way. Because he has not yet firmly controlled the court, the domineering way will not have a domineering effect, but will only embarrass himself.

As he spoke, Yang Guang swept his eyes across the hall and everyone's faces, and then said solemnly: "Since I ascended the throne as emperor, I have been thinking every day about how to make me grow up." The Sui Dynasty restored the prosperity of Han and Wu in the past. I have stayed in Jiangnan for ten years, and I know very well that the Jianghuai and Jiangnan areas are rich, especially the grain production is several times or even ten times that of the north. However, the north, including the capital of Guanzhong, has always lacked Grain. I just thought that if we can transport the grain and abundant materials from Jianghuai and Jiangnan to the north, especially the capital of Guanzhong, we will definitely be able to create a prosperous Sui Dynasty.”

After a pause, Yang Guang sighed, and said: "However, from the land of Jiangnan and Jianghuai to the land of Guanzhong, the road is inconvenient and the transportation of materials is quite difficult across the Qinling Mountains. It is also not conducive to the court's pursuit of the rich. The governance and control of Jiangnan and Jianghuai. In addition, the rebellion and rebellion in Bingzhou made me deeply feel that there are still many hidden dangers in the original Northern Qi. Unbelievable."

"So I intend to move the capital to Luoyang, in order to solve the problems I just mentioned about the prosperity of the Sui Dynasty, so as to strengthen the imperial court's control over Hebei, Henan, Jianghuai, and Jiangnan. What do you think?"

Yang Guang finished the words he had prepared long ago, but the hall had become completely silent. Many people were shocked, and many people's faces became ugly, as if someone said that their house was going to be dug up. Ugly as a ancestral grave.

Some of them knew more or less that the emperor wanted to move the capital to Luoyang, but the first emperor Yang Jian had just brought up the matter of moving the capital back then, but he suffered strong backlash from the courtiers and the Guanlongmen family, and he did not make another move until his death raised this matter. Therefore, none of them thought that the new emperor would consider moving the capital to Luoyang less than a year after he ascended the throne. At that time, many aristocratic families did not want Yang Guang to be emperor because they found that Yang Guang was a restless master and extremely tough. Now it seems that Yang Guang is more radical than the former emperor Wendi.

But after all, it was proposed by the emperor. Although many people will firmly resist and oppose it, whoever stands up first to express their opposition will definitely be hated by the emperor, so no one is the first to stand up and speak out.

Yu Wenshu took a look at Wang Junlin, and saw that the latter looked at his nose and nose, and his mind seemed to be wandering away. He sighed, walked out of the court, and said in a high voice: "Your Majesty is wise, what you just said is old-fashioned Adhering to the words of the country, the matter of moving the capital is something that must be done for the prosperity of the Sui Dynasty. Therefore, I fully agree with the proposal of moving the capital by the Holy Majesty."

Speaking of this, Yu Wenshu took a peek at Yang Guang's face, and found that the latter was frowning, obviously not satisfied with what he said, so he gritted his teeth, and continued under the murderous eyes: "As we all know, there is a large population in Guanzhong, but the food is far from enough, not to mention the army guarding the capital, the city guards, and the court officials, there are no less than 200,000 people, and the food has to be obtained from the people in Guanzhong. The main reason for the high residence is the inconvenience of transportation. Looking at Luoyang again, it is the old capital of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. The land of Zhongxing."

Yang Guang nodded slightly at this point, Yu Wenshu himself is also a nobleman of Guanlong, and Yang Guang forced him to take the lead in expressing his opinion, which is not bad.

Yang Guang looked at Wang Junlin again, Wang Junlin sighed secretly, and immediately went out of the shift and said: "I also heard that the Holy One belongs to the wood, and Yongjing is the land of the wood, and the Holy One is incompatible, the prophecy says,' Repair Luoyang and return the family of Jin', which implies that the Holy Majesty ascended the throne, and moving the capital to Luoyang is God’s will, and if God’s will is so, moving the capital should be feasible.”

After Wang Junlin finished speaking, Yu Shiji and Su Wei, whom Yang Guang had greeted in advance, were also about to speak.

Unexpectedly, Shangzhu Kingdom, Situ Dugu and Changsu suddenly walked out of the court, and said firmly: "Your Majesty, I firmly oppose moving the capital!"

Dugu Changsu is the head of the Dugu clan, the number one clan in the world, and his sister is Dugu Jialuo, the founding queen. Dugu Changsu is also Yang Guang's uncle, with a high status. But he forgot that the Dugu clan is still the head of the Guanlong nobles.

Yang Guang's expression sank immediately, but Dugu Changsu's status was not trivial, so he couldn't reprimand him, so he could only let him go on and say, "Your Majesty, in the fourth year of Emperor Kaihuang, the first emperor ordered to collect 200,000 yuan. Labor labor took a year and a half to dig Guangtong Canal. In order to solve the shortage of food in the capital, Taicang, the capital, is now full of grain, and grains in free warehouses are piled up like mountains. The grain in Guangtong warehouse can supply the capital for a hundred years. If there is still insufficient food, then Canals can be dug and widened, transportation can be strengthened, and granaries can be built widely, and this problem can be solved, so why move the capital to Luoyang?"

"Your Majesty, I also oppose moving the capital to Luoyang."

The next person who spoke was Yuanshou, the great general and Qing of Taifu Temple. Yuanshou was the grandson of Yuanxin, the Eight Pillar Kingdom of the Western Wei Dynasty. At the same time, the Yuan family was also one of the leaders of the Guanlong nobles. If the Dugu family was not the family of the emperor's relatives and uncles, the Yuan family's power would not be weaker than the Dugu family, and Yang Guang wanted to move the capital to Luoyang, which would shake the foundation of the Guanlong nobles. How could Shi agree.
