Chapter 176 Dingdu Guohao (Ask for a monthly pass!)
...

Cai Yu reported to Zhao Ji on August [-] that Li Cun had returned, but the news was actually wrong, at least inaccurate.

Because Li Cun actually arrived at Hangzhou Port on August 29, 20 days later than the time reported by Cai Yu.

In fact, the news that Cai Yu inquired was brought back by the soldiers of the East China Sea Navy who first sent back the treasures of Li Chao and Zhancheng captured by Li Cun.

Of course, the content of the news that Cai He inquired about was still accurate, because when the East China Sea Navy went north, the situation in the Indochina Peninsula had already settled down. The reason why Li Cun didn't come back at that time was just to clean up the aftermath.

After Li Cun went south this time, both Li Cun and Li Cun's ministers of civil and military affairs realized that it would be too inconvenient for Li Cun not to restructure the Yuan Dynasty, even a little embarrassing.

For example, it was very troublesome for the Dali Kingdom and the Khmer Dynasty to call Li Cun the Fanna Biao, because they didn't know how to write the Biao Biao, so in the end they had to write "Da Cunguo" nondescriptly.

A year ago, Li Cun was unwilling to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor because Li Cun's territory was still unstable at that time, and he had just negotiated peace with the Zhao and Song Dynasty, promising that the Zhao and Song Dynasty would not establish a Yuan system, not proclaim themselves emperor, or even become a king. Don't bother.

Moreover, at that time, Li Cun was also worried that once he restructured the Yuan Dynasty, the Zhao and Song Dynasties might fight with him to the end, leaving Liao, Jin, and Xixia alone, and giving the Hulu an opportunity.

In addition, Li Cun had just won the Zhao Song Dynasty at that time, and the politics, military affairs, and economy were all messed up, so Li Cun did not dare to act rashly.

To put it bluntly, a year ago, Li Cun was not ready for anything, so he made a steady wave first.

Now, Li Cun has completely pacified the foreign aggression in the south, and also pacified the civil strife in the territory. The army has been reorganized. Li Cun got a lot of income.

In addition, the people in Li Cun's territory settled down after a year of rest and recuperation.

What it brings is that Li Cun is deeply loved by the people in the administration.

As for Zhao Song, his weak nature has now been exposed, and he inserted his finger into the grinding eye of Lianjin Mieliao and regaining Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures.

The conditions for Li Cunjianyuan to restructure and become emperor are ripe.

At this time, Li Cun said again that I want to "build the city high, accumulate food widely, and become king slowly", which is really a bit too hypocritical.

After all, as of now, Li Cun already owns nine roads on Liangzhe Road, Fujian Road, Jiangnan East Road, Jiangnan West Road, Guangnan East Road, Guangnan West Road, Liuqiu Road, Annan Road, and Dingnan Road. Territory, hard power lies here.

Let's put it in a more intuitive way.

The Zhao Song Dynasty, which was seized by Li Cun, now has only eighteen roads; the Xixia Dynasty only has two or three roads; How big is it.

More intuitively, the Li Dynasty and Champa, which only occupied Li Cun's road before, were restructured in the Yuan Dynasty.

There are also the Dali Kingdom and the Angkor Dynasty, which were called Fannabiao to Li Cunchao, and the Queen Kingdom, Bagan, Fallapati, Java Kingdom, Sanfoqi Kingdom, Siam Kingdom and other countries, which one The territory is bigger than Li Cun's?Which military strength is stronger than Li Cun's?Which politics, economy, and culture are deeper than Li Cun's?
Under such circumstances, Li Cun did not establish the Yuan Dynasty to reform the system, and did not ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor, which is really unreasonable.

As for the peace treaty with the Zhao Song Dynasty?

Just tear it up.

Isn't such a thing as a peace treaty meant to be torn up?
Furthermore, do you think that if the Zhao Song Dynasty successfully regained the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun, and trained a powerful navy and developed advanced gunpowder weapons, the Zhao Song Dynasty would not tear up the war with Li Cun? Signed and Yue Nan came down to fight Li Cun?
Don't be naive.

Don't you see, didn't the Zhao and Song Dynasty tear up the Tanyuan alliance?
So, between countries, there are only eternal interests, and everything else is false.

but--

At present, there is only one problem that hinders Li Cunjianyuan's reform and ascension to the throne—a very small problem.

That is, Li Cun did not ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor.

You can't let Li Cun be like Fang La, just find a random place, just restructure the Jianyuan and ascend the throne, can you?
Even Zhao Paopao, at any rate, ascended the throne in Nanjing during the Zhao and Song Dynasties, with palaces and complete ceremonies.

Although Li Cun is a pragmatist, he didn't want his enthronement ceremony to be too shabby.

Besides, after Li Cun went south this time to destroy the Li Dynasty and Zhancheng, the number of people in his harem more than doubled.

Under such circumstances, it is impossible for Li Cun to live in the original residence in Hangzhou.

——Li Cun has ordered the Ministry of Rites to come forward and discuss with the few families in that area, asking them to rent the house to him first and live temporarily.

However, this is just a stopgap measure. Li Cun, who is about to ascend the throne and become emperor, can't rent a house all the time, can he?

And in the future there will definitely be envoys from countries in the Indochina Peninsula who will come to see Li Cun here. If they see that Li Cun lives in such a shabby state, they will definitely be despised by those small countries.

Li Cun's ministers also didn't want Li Cun's enthronement ceremony to be too shabby, because that would not only make Li Cun, the emperor, appear dishonest, but they, Li Cun's ministers, would also appear dishonest.

In fact, Li Cun's ministers understand the state system and national prestige better than Li Cun.

Therefore, Li Cun's ministers wrote memorials to Li Cun one after another, asking Li Cun to choose a capital, build a palace, and then restructure the Yuan Dynasty and become emperor.

Speaking of Dingdu, Li Cun's ministers had already started arguing with each other.

Some ministers submitted a memorial to suggest that Li Cun use Hangzhou as the capital, and also pointed out that the Wuyue Kingdom used Hangzhou as the capital.

Some ministers pointed out in the memorial that due to the geographical location of Hangzhou, the establishment of the capital in Hangzhou can only be done in a peaceful corner, and it is impossible to win the world. They suggested that Li Cun should establish the capital in Jiangning Mansion, saying that Jiangning Mansion was the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, and also pointed out that in Hangzhou Some advantages of establishing the capital of Jiangning Prefecture:
For example, Jiangning Mansion has the natural danger of the Yangtze River, so it is safe.

For example, Jiangning Prefecture is a grain production base, and there will be no shortage of grain.

Like Jiangning Prefecture, the waterways extend in all directions and the transportation is convenient.

For example, Jiangning Mansion can sit and look at the Central Plains. It can use Jiangning Mansion as a base to seize the Central Plains area.

However, there are also many people who oppose establishing the capital in Jiangning Prefecture.

These people pointed out that there is no country that builds its own country on the front line. If the enemy comes over, won't the country be destroyed immediately?They also pointed out that Li Cun's territory is now all in the south, so of course he should choose Hangzhou as his capital, which is close to the middle and also has convenient transportation.

Those who supported the establishment of the capital in Jiangning Prefecture immediately retorted and said that since ancient times, if Jiangning Prefecture fell, Hangzhou must not be defended, so building the capital in Jiangning Prefecture is the same as establishing the capital in Hangzhou. Jiangning Mansion has all the transportation advantages, at most it is just a little further away, but Jiangning Mansion can sit and look at the Central Plains, which is incomparable to Hangzhou.

Of course, there are also some "other ways", such as asking Li Cun to go to Fuzhou to establish the capital, and also gave several reasons:

For example, Fujian is Li Cun's second hometown. Wealth and honor do not return to the hometown, just like traveling at night in brocade clothes.

For example, Fujian is surrounded by Shandong on three sides and the sea, which is safer than Jiangning and Hangzhou.

For example, Fujian is more the center of Li Cun's territory than Hangzhou.

and many more……

First of all, the guy who suggested that Li Cun go to Fuzhou Dingdu was directly blacklisted by Li Cun.

The person who made this suggestion has no brains at all. Fujian is one of the most unsuitable places to be a national capital. Fortunately, he can still come up with so many suggestions. What's even more annoying is that this idiot actually used Xiang Yu's words to trick Li Cun. , is simply stupid.

As for how to choose between Hangzhou and Jiangning Prefecture?
simple.

Li Cun didn't want to be Zhao Gou, so without hesitation, Li Cun changed Jiangning Mansion to Yingtian Mansion with a swipe of a pen, and built the capital and imperial palace on the basis of the original Jinling City. As for the name of the country, let the Ministry of Rites Discuss first.

Li Cun's order is extremely exciting, especially for those civil servants, it is almost as if they have been beaten to death. When they handed over the land IOU, they looked like they hated Li Cun to death. Now, they are more active and harder than each other. Some even beat their feet and chests, regretting that they did not seize the good opportunity to give their daughter Li Cun sent it away, and even regretted that he had been persuading Li Cun to accept the Zhao Song Dynasty's recruitment, or against Li Cun everywhere.

No one is stupid, how can they fail to see that Li Cun is really a big trend?

Especially when these people learned that the Zhao Song Dynasty was defeated by the Liao Kingdom, which was about to perish.

At this time, who could have imagined that Li Cunyou might not be just an emperor of the Southern Dynasty, maybe Li Cunzhen could become the real lord of the world.

Li Cun robbed their daughter before?
That's their honor, okay?

In the past, Li Cun used a knife to force them to manage the territory for himself?

That's their chance, okay?

In the past, Li Cun forced them to hand over their fields and IOUs?
Otherwise, can there be long-term peace and stability in their soon-to-be-established country?Besides, now that they are upstarts, do they have to worry about not being rich and prosperous in the future?
All in all, as Li Cun wants to restructure the Yuan Dynasty and proclaim himself emperor, all the problems before are no longer problems. All Li Cun's previous actions that made Li Cun's subordinates grit their teeth and dare not speak out have become Li Cun's wise and wise The performance of making big things informal.

If you don’t believe me, take a look, how many people have sharpened their heads and want to give their daughters to Li Cun, manage the territory for Li Cun, and donate things to Li Cunjin.

But that's only if Li Cun is willing.

Today is different.

Li Cun is about to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor, and Li Cun is still a big country with a territory of nine routes, a powerful country in the Indochina Peninsula, and two vassal states of Dali and Angkor. The key is that he is expected to become the lord of the world emperor.

Now it's not so easy to get on Li Cun's express train to fly to the top.

Speaking of this, some people may want to ask, I am afraid that it will take more than ten or twenty years to build a palace.

Don’t you see Lao Zhu’s Nanjing Palace was built in the 26th year of Zhizheng and completed in the 26th year of Hongwu, which took 26 years; Zhu Di’s Beijing Palace started construction in the fourth year of Yongle, and was completed in the 18th year of Yongle, which took 14 years.

Here, Li Cun, even if he followed the template of Zhu Di, who used less time, and gave Li Cun a [-]% discount on the time, wouldn't it take seven years?

Could it be that Li Cun plans to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor seven years later?
People who think this way must have never turned this corner.

Wouldn't Li Cun choose a few important palaces to build first, and at the same time build some sleeping halls enough for his family to live in temporarily, and then ascend the throne, and then live and build while living, at most, pay attention to not exceeding the standard of formaldehyde and excessive noise? Big or something is enough, do we have to build all the nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine palaces, and then ascend the throne and use them again?

In short, after Li Cun ordered Jinling City to be the capital, Jiangning Mansion, no, it should be said that Yingtian Mansion began to build large-scale construction projects.

In addition, in order to save trouble, save some expenses, and have a bit of exotic style, the royal palace of the Li Dynasty, the royal palace of Champa, and the temple of Champa were all demolished by the officials of the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Works who presided over the construction of the palace. All the things on the Internet will be sent back to Tianfu.

Of course, this is also a political need.

Annan Road and Dingnan Road will no longer need palaces and temples, things that only the supreme ruler needs. Even if they want to leave a palace for Li Cun, they don't need such a large scale.

dismantle.

You can't keep the ambition to breed others.

These things were transported to Jiangning Mansion one by one, and it was impossible for the Song Army on the other side of the river to see them.

Especially the treasure ship that was like a hill coming from the mouth of the sea, unless all the soldiers of the Song Army were blind, they would not be able to see it.

Therefore, Zhao Ji and his ministers soon learned that Li Cun was planning to build a palace in Jiangning Mansion, and even learned that Li Cun was planning to restructure the Yuan Dynasty and proclaim himself emperor.

Knowing this, among the ministers of the Zhao and Song Dynasties, some scolded Li Cun for treachery, some threatened to send troops to attack Li Cun, and some said they would send people to condemn Li Cun.

Without exception, the people who said these words were all without brains.

People with really long brains, how can they care about these now, they are only afraid and worried about the fate of the Song Dynasty.

Put the capital on the front line? !

Li thief crazy?

But how could it be possible for a lunatic to develop to such a degree in just two years?
So thief Li is definitely not crazy.

Then how could thief Li do such a crazy thing as setting the country's capital at the front line?

Go north to attack my Great Song Dynasty!
Thief Li is definitely going north to attack our Great Song Dynasty!
Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain Li Thief's establishment of the country's capital on the front line!
You know, how can you allow others to snore and sleep on the side of the couch? !

Thief Li established the capital of the country in Jiangning Mansion. Is it possible that there will be another Song Army on the other side of the river?With the Song army on the other side of the river, is it possible for thief Li to sleep?

Therefore, Thief Li must send troops to the north in the next step, at least to recover the Huainan area first, and then push the defense line to the Huaihe River. Otherwise, Jiangning Mansion is by no means a qualified and safe capital.

Also, my Great Song Dynasty already had a Yingtian Mansion, why did Thief Li name his capital Ying Tian Mansion?

Could it be that such a domineering person like Li Thief can really allow the existence of two Yingtianfu?
And if Thief Li couldn't tolerate the existence of two Yingtian Mansions at the same time, or in other words, Li Thief never thought of allowing two Yingtian Mansions to exist at the same time.

Doesn't that mean that the front line of the Huaihe River is not Li Thief's ultimate goal? My Great Song Dynasty? !
The fact that Li Cun established his capital in Jiangning was infinitely interpreted by the great wisdom of the Zhao and Song Dynasties.

At the end of the interpretation, Zhao Ji and his ministers trembled?

Lianjin destroys Liao and recovers Yanyun sixteen states?
Now, how can Zhao Ji and his ministers still feel this way?

Zhao Ji's monarch and ministers are now in fear every day, for fear that one day they will suddenly hear the news that Li Thief's army that wiped out the Li Dynasty and Zhancheng has fought the Yangtze River.

Of course, it is useless to be afraid.

Therefore, while being afraid, Zhao Ji and his ministers discussed how to deal with Li Thief's undisguised ambition every day.

In order to get a good strategy to save the country, Zhao Ji issued a policy-seeking edict:
Our country's entrepreneurship and success will show the fortune of 200 years;Reckless bowing, inheriting the artifact.Forever thinking about the weight of inheritance, fearing the drama of spring ice; carrying only facing the difficulties of the imperial court, worrying deeply about the decay.Now that the frontier is not peaceful, another villain, Li Cunyu, falsely set up the capital in Jiangning Mansion. My heart is desolate, and I beg for a good plan to save the country...

In short, what Zhao Ji means is that our Great Song Dynasty is now facing a major event, and the thief Li has returned with the prestige of a great victory, and he wants to build his capital in Jiangning Prefecture. The northern border is not stable, and the Liao people are desperate. It is possible to go south in a big way. The 200-year foundation of our Great Song Dynasty is in danger. If there is no good strategy to save the country, we don’t know how much of our [-]-mile territory will be left. Please help me find a way...

Not to mention, after Zhao Ji lost his face, someone really offered Zhao Ji a good plan that was not a good one...
