Chapter 849

Yang Xi and his wife returned to Beijing Daying just in time for dinner. Yang Xixuan had already met the officials of the capital. Except Qian Shangshu stayed for dinner together, all other officials returned to the capital to make final preparations for entering the city.

Yang Xixuan is calm on the surface but not calm in his heart. The rebuilt capital completely belongs to him, and will leave a strong mark in the history books in the future.

After dinner, Yang Xixuan didn't go to rest, he invited Zhou Yu to ride out of the barracks to look around.

When the two left the barracks, Yang Xixuan observed the surrounding scenery with pride in his tone, "A few years ago, the surroundings of the capital were dilapidated, brother-in-law, look at the scenery of the capital now, the official roads and ditches extending in all directions, and the neatly planted trees and flowers. If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn’t have believed it was the result of more than two years.”

Zhou Yu had to admit that rebuilding the capital took a lot of manpower, but he also comforted the people around the capital and gave them hope of survival, "The people in the capital are grateful to you. Many people will continue to work after work to welcome you back to the capital as soon as possible. Bai Gong."

The manpower for rebuilding the capital is a huge expenditure. The money goes into the pockets of the people. The people have money to buy necessities. The money flows into the shops and then pays taxes. The taxes are collected from the treasury to support the construction of the capital, forming a complete closed loop.

The capital can recover so quickly not only because it is the capital, but also because of the gradually recovering economy.

Zhou Yu looked at the majestic city in the distance in a daze, and when he regained consciousness, they had already climbed a gentle slope. Riding on horseback, they had a wide view. At a glance, they could not only have a panoramic view of the city, but also see the defense of the Beijing Guard camp.

Zhou Yu thought about the number of soldiers in the imperial court, "Hule China has expanded his power like crazy this year, what happened to him when the missions from various countries entered Beijing this time?"

Yang Xixuan sent a lot of spies to the grassland. Ever since Hule China knew about the minerals, Hu Lechina has cleared out many of his spies. Yang Xixuan looked in the direction of the grassland, "Is he doing military training?"

Zhou Yu, "...you are really calm."

Yang Xixuan sneered, "I also know that the foreigners in the north support Hulechina behind their backs, and secretly sold Hulechina a lot of guns and other firearms."

Zhou Yu is really not surprised. The credibility of foreigners is really not high. Even if they come from thousands of miles to sign the peace agreement, they will not delay their affairs behind the scenes. Whoever makes the two countries adjacent to each other? Yang Xixuan's defense in the northeast makes foreigners uneasy. Being able to cause troubles in Huaguo without costing human life, foreigners wish Hu Lechina and Yang Xixuan could fight to the death.

Yang Xixuan changed his voice, "That's why I am going to support the ruling king of the northern foreigners."

Zhou Yu, "."

After becoming an emperor, my heart is getting more and more dirty, but it really relieves my anger!

Yang Xixuan said in a low tone, "I'll settle accounts with the foreigners in the north after I win the grassland."

At present, there is no shortage of soldiers to fight. When the world is truly peaceful, the positive image of soldiers he created will become more popular, and the imperial court can continue to reform soldiers.

It was getting dark before Yang Xixuan and Zhou Yu rode back to the barracks.

Because of Yang Xixuan's arrival, the camp guarding the capital was under martial law, and the officials in the capital could only squeeze out an hour or two to rest, but Yang Xixuan, the emperor, slept soundly.

On the night before the auspicious day before entering the city, the officials of the capital personally walked through the streets of the inner city, and finally confirmed that there was no problem, and then the officials returned to the mansion to wash and change their official uniforms. The officials will enter the city with the emperor when they leave the city.

On the auspicious day, Yang Xi and his wife got up early and changed into court clothes. The couple didn't dare to eat more in the morning, for fear that they would come up with Gong in the middle of the process.

Zilu also changed into the court uniform of the Marquis that had been made in a hurry, and Zhenyuan would follow Zilu into the city together.

Today the imperial court has arranged for thirty painters. Although there are no high-tech cameras, the imperial court has skilled painters, and some of them have a photographic memory.

Today's grand scene will be sealed and handed down to the world. The whole process of moving the capital will be accompanied by painters. The expensive ore dyes alone are a big expense.

Today, the officials of the Ministry of Rituals are busy flying up. Yang Xixuan worships the heavens according to the auspicious time, and can only go to the next process after the sacrifices to the heavens are over.

After entering Beijing, she needs to parade through the streets and finally enter the palace. After the process is completed, Yang Xi's body after exercise is a bit too much. She only feels tired in the second half of the journey.

It was even worse for some elderly ministers, who persisted to the end entirely by willpower.

Zhou Yu was also exhausted. He observed Xixuan especially, and it turned out that Xixuan wasn't tired at all, and became more energetic the longer he passed!
After entering the palace, there was half an hour to rest. Fortunately, Yang Xi and his wife followed the emperor all the time, so they didn't have to queue up to come out.

Yang Xi drank the herbal tea to relieve summer heat, and she felt alive again, "My scalp is already numb from the pain."

I don't know how much hair I lost today, Yang Xi is very distressed, and I cherish my hair especially when I am old.

Zhou Yu's hair was already drenched, "Look at my hair is full of sweat."

He had been wearing the court cap all day long, God knows how much he wanted to take it off!

Yang Xi raised her hand to touch her face. Fortunately, she had the foresight to not put on a particularly thick powder. Today, many court ladies look very embarrassed.

The couple still have time to chat and rest, Yang Xixuan and Wanning are hurrying to change clothes, because there will be a final palace banquet in a while.

Now the officials in charge of moving the capital can breathe a sigh of relief. Everything went smoothly today, although there are some minor flaws, but they can be covered up.

Today is the first palace banquet in the new palace, and the pressure is instantly transferred to the catering department such as the imperial dining room.

There is enough space for the palace banquet in the palace, unlike when it was crowded in Jiaozhou. The imperial dining room has put in all its effort for today's palace banquet. No one can eat greasy food on a hot day. In addition, all the officials are very tired. The imperial dining room has done a lot Appetizing soup.

Yang Xi tasted every dish, "Today's dishes are good."

Zhou Yu was also very satisfied, "I just want to go back and take a good bath now."

His shoes are wet, and he can already imagine how good it smells!
Yang Xi glanced at the sky outside, "Let's hold on for a while."

Yang Xixuan looked at the tired faces of the ministers, the crown prince was already nodding his head, and seeing the queen was also holding up his energy, Yang Xixuan waved his big hand and led the queen and prince away first.

Yang Xi and his wife followed closely behind and led Zilu and Zhenyuan out of the palace, and all the ministers also stood up and left the palace one after another.

Yang Xi and his wife could take a carriage in the palace, and they took their children in the carriage and left.

Several princes of the state also had this treatment, and the eyes of the officials who could not enjoy the treatment would overflow with envy, but it was a pity that envy was useless and they could only grit their teeth and walk out of the palace step by step.

When Yang Xi and his wife returned to the Duke's mansion, Yang Zhanpeng and his wife had been waiting. Yang Xi was so tired that he didn't have time to talk to his younger brother. "Let's go back to rest first, and you should also rest earlier."

After speaking, Yang Xi and his wife went back to the backyard in a sedan chair.

Seeing that his son was tired, Yang Zhanpeng wanted to express his concern, but Zhenyuan just nodded and followed Zilu away.

Yang Zhanpeng really regretted and couldn't help but let out a long sigh. No matter how hard he tried to repair the relationship, it was useless. He couldn't smooth out the scars in his son's heart.
