Chapter 133 Dragon Palace
Liu Xuan just listened to the first few names as a joke. Of course, after the new palace is built, it would be good to build a complex of exotic-style buildings. If you have nothing to do, you can change it, so that those names can be used.
Used...
Even though Liu Xuan has determined the entire framework, most of the styles of the new palaces have not yet been determined. Especially now that the new palace is designed to be so huge, what the Ministry of Industry has to do is to build the main building first.
, let the emperor move there first so that the capital move can be completed within the planned time.
Not long after, the Ministry of Industry's progress report on the construction of the new palace was delivered to Liu Xuan's desk.
"The Lingxiao Palace, Crystal Palace, Imperial Study Room, Imperial Garden and Royal Hunting Garden are almost completed, including the internal decorations, all built in accordance with His Majesty's requirements."
Such a fast speed is also due to the auxiliary machinery designed by Huang Yueying. The excellent load-carrying capacity of the suspension vehicle and the absolutely first-class speed in this era enable all kinds of raw materials to be transported continuously from all over the world.
Arriving in Luoyang virtually guarantees the speed of construction.
The other types have solved many problems that cannot be accomplished manually - such as a machine (magic weapon?) that can make objects lighter within a certain period of time, so that many heavy objects can be easily lifted and placed at a predetermined location.
It not only saves effort but also saves time.
In other words, the most time-consuming processes are no longer a problem with the help of these machines (magic weapons?). This allows the framework of each palace to be built easily, and the trouble is the follow-up.
Detailed work - detailed work such as the production of decorations and carvings and decorations.
But with the advent of an auxiliary smelter, these tasks have become much simpler: the function of this magic weapon is to help the user transform metal or any material into the desired shape - only changing the appearance, without changing the hardness or
Other attributes.
Liu Xuan had wanted to make this thing for a long time, but he had been holding off because he didn't have the talent to use it in large quantities. Now that the time was right, he took advantage of the situation and asked the Weapon Refining Department to make it.
Therefore, when Liu Xuan proposed that he could move into the new palace in the 11th year of Jian'an, that is, before 200 AD, he was not just talking nonsense, but he was really sure of it.
Ignoring Huang Yueying's contemptuous gaze, she expressed her satisfaction with the current progress. Although there are still many buildings that have not even put a single brick on them, as long as the current speed is maintained, within five years, the largest building in the world with the largest area will be built.
The vast palace will be built.
The huge imperial palace reaches from the north of Luoyang to the south bank of the Yellow River. For this purpose, the royal dock and supporting port facilities were built accordingly - but to achieve this, there is another prerequisite, which is to suppress the flooding of the Yellow River, and at the same time
Avoid diversion of the Yellow River due to sediment accumulation on the river bottom.
Liu Xuan said that they don't need to worry about this matter. He will send special personnel to handle it. In addition, no one in the world knows that Dang Tianzi is a person who truly has magical means, so he will do as he is told.
However, the palace has been built to this extent, and it seems a bit inappropriate that it has not even decided on a name. This issue has even been discussed in the court - for many civil and military officials, this is not a small problem.
This is related to the face of today's emperor, the prestige of the Han Dynasty, and their historical status. Therefore, no matter from which aspect, the name of this palace cannot be dealt with casually.
"How about we still call it Beigong?"
The Luoyang New Palace was built on the basis of the original North Palace and continued to expand to the north. It makes sense to follow this name.
However, there are many voices of opposition, because the new palace is not at the same level as the Beigong in terms of scale, and many new facilities have been added subsequently, and it will be built directly to the south bank of the Yellow River.
Luoyang at this time was not the Luoyang it would become later. It was still some distance away from the Yellow River. If the new palace was to be built on the edge of the Yellow River, the entire Luoyang would either have to be relocated or expanded. After considering many aspects, it was finally decided to build the new palace in the new city.
After the palace is built, the entire Luoyang City will undergo a new expansion.
In other words, once the new palace is built, the entire Luoyang will undergo new expansion and become the largest city and county in the world today. The original Luoyang will become part of the new Luoyang or become
A city area.
It can make a huge city that is one of the best undergo earth-shaking changes again. The status of this palace can already be predicted before it is built, so it must have a unique name.
Beigong? Definitely not!
Liu Xuan doesn't like this name either, not to mention he wants to build the Beigong farther away and build it into a landmark building - for example, in Siberia? It would be good to go there to escape the heat in the summer!
Then he mentioned Yong'an and other miscellaneous names, but Liu Xuan always felt bad. Finally, he felt that the names mentioned by these people were getting worse and worse, so he simply said: "Just call it Dragon Palace!"
As soon as these words came out, all the civil and military officials in the audience shut up.
"Since I am the True Dragon Emperor, the word "Dragon Palace" is also appropriate!"
What's more, the layout of this Dragon Palace is a huge dragon gathering formation, which is closely related to the dragon energy. What I cultivate is the emperor's dragon energy, so I basically have nothing to do with the dragon. I live like this.
The place is called Dragon Palace quite appropriately.
All civil and military officials, look at me and I look at you. Seeing that the emperor didn't seem to be joking, they all nodded in agreement.
They had no objection to the name. Some of Liu Xuan's close associates thought of the magic of today's world, and it seemed more appropriate to name the new palace after the Dragon Palace.
The name was just decided.
"Dragon Palace; Lingxiao Palace, Crystal Palace, Imperial Garden, Imperial Study Room..."
While Huang Yueying kept stuffing the snacks in front of her into her mouth - I don't know if it is because she is growing taller, this girl always eats delicious food when she sees it - she looked at Liu with contempt.
Xuan.
"You really have a bad taste!"
"Are you embarrassed to accuse me? I don't know who circled a circle on my drawing and said that they would build the Kremlin, Buckingham Palace and the White House!"
Seeing Huang Yueying eating her mouth full and then sucking her fingers, Liu Xuan was speechless for a while: "Did you starve to death in your last life?"
"No!" Huang Yueying blinked, with an innocent expression that didn't know what you meant: "Why do you ask that?"
"nothing!"
Lifting his wrist casually, Liu Xuan looked at the watch that was manufactured last year and started mass production this year.
The appearance is exactly the same as the mechanical watches of later generations, but the inside is very different. To put it bluntly, this is still the product of a cultivation civilization.
This time, it wasn't the little girl in front of her who had instigated it, but it was still her who reminded herself - Huang Yueying looked at the sun in the sky in a daze one day, and then muttered: I couldn't tell what time it was!
Although there are already timekeeping devices in this era, they are definitely not as convenient as watches. Only then did Liu Xuan remember that he also needed to have a very clear understanding of time when fighting. He had forgotten this before.
In addition, he had made similar things before, so he quickly sent the drawings to the Refining Department, and within a month he sent the sample to Liu Xuan - the technical content of this thing is really not high, but it is not so
Just a concept.
After testing, finalizing and then starting mass production, Liu Xuan directly asked the civil and military personnel of the Manchu Dynasty to get one. In the army, every soldier must have one - it is still being manufactured, so priority is given to rationing according to level.
Not to mention, this thing was really popular when it came out. Although the day is divided into twenty-four hours, it actually does not conflict with the thoughts and habits of people of this generation-twelve hours become twenty-four hours, as
Just break it down in more detail.
Businessmen, in particular, prefer this thing. Therefore, after the Ministry of Industry took over the production of this watch this year, it has begun to set up a separate manufacturing workshop and sell it to the private sector.
In just the past three months, this watch has been sold to Jiangdong. This shows how popular this thing is. Therefore, Huang Chengyan is smiling and laughing every day while looking at the area where Luoyang City will definitely expand.
A circle was drawn and plans were made to build a large number of workshops. In addition to moving the existing workshops there, large-scale expansions were also required.
As for manpower? He has already started training. Now he is just waiting for the capital relocation to take place and everything can be transferred.
In short, Liu Xuan did everything asked of him, and he also did a lot of things that were not asked of him, and he did it quite well. And this is a microcosm of the entire court, and the entire Han Dynasty was running at high speed.
In just a few years, the world has changed.
Radiating from Chang'an and Luoyang as the core, the closer to these two places, the greater the changes. Even the lives of ordinary people have become different.
The winter of 199 AD was not very cold at the beginning of winter. It was just a little cool, but this coolness could not change the fiery atmosphere in Chang'an City.
A variety of products appear on various vendors. The changes Liu Xuan has made in recent years have not only stimulated constant changes in his own workshop, but also folk craftsmen have begun to spend their efforts to produce a variety of exquisite small goods.
thing.
These things may not be of much use, but they enrich the lives of ordinary people.
Even Liu Xuan likes to go out and look around when he has nothing to do to see if there is anything new and fresh.
Accompanying him today were the sisters Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao. The two sisters were wearing red and light pink dresses respectively. Their almost identical looks made Liu Xuan have to let them have different hairstyles.
At his insistent request, Da Qiao had a single ponytail, while Xiao Qiao had two ponytails.
"Why should I tie two?"
"Because you are my sister."
Xiao Qiao tilted her head, unable to connect her sister with the two tails, but who calls Liu Xuan the emperor? The emperor likes it, so of course she does it. Besides, this look is quite interesting. Especially when she turns her neck, it feels like her brain is shaking
It’s so fun to have your hair swinging around.
Da Qiao seemed much calmer than Xiao Qiao. While looking at the novelties sold by the vendors on the left and right, he asked Liu Xuan: "Are you leaving Chang'an next year?"
"yes!"
Liu Xuan also acted in the same way: "Several major palaces have been built in Luoyang, and we will move there after the spring begins!"
"Really? I wonder what the new palace looks like!"
After hearing Liu Xuan talk a lot about it, the two sisters became curious about the new 'residence'. But they didn't have to worry, because they would see it soon.
p.s: The recent updates are not very impressive, but in order to repay everyone’s support, I’m going to give you a little teaser, there will be three chapters today…
