Chapter 249 Go to Luoyang and buy official Xiyuan(1/2)
"Such a tall city and such a terrible city defense are really solid, and it is worthy of being the capital of the Han Empire.
Even if tens of millions of troops besieged this imperial city, if half of them were not killed or injured, they would definitely not be able to conquer this Luoyang city!"
Jing Ke, who was standing beside him, couldn't help but sigh silently when he saw this extremely towering city.
Jing Ke looked at the towering city wall with complex eyes and didn't know what he was thinking.
When Ye Tian heard this, he just smiled slightly and said nothing.
He knew that in the entire history of the Han Dynasty, no one could conquer Luoyang City.
Even the Emperor Guangwu Emperor Liu Xiu of the Han Dynasty, who was the Emperor of the Great Han Dynasty, went south to Luoyang City after he became emperor in Hebei.
He took down this capital of god Luoyang without fighting, and then he could be justified and be called emperor in the capital of god.
After that, Luoyang City replaced Chang'an City, the old capital of the former Han Dynasty, and was appointed as the capital of the Han court.
Since Liu Xiu claimed to be the orthodox Han Dynasty, why not use Chang'an, the old capital of the Western Han Dynasty?
Although Chang'an has been devastated due to years of chaos, the economy and agriculture have declined greatly and cannot afford the huge expenses of the royal family.
Another reason is that Liu Xiu started his army from Nanyang, and his supporters were all wealthy landlords in Henan and Hebei.
When Liu Xiu first built his capital, he had not yet established a firm foothold and had to rely on these trusted people to protect him and did not dare to be too far away from his base camp.
Liu Xiu raised an army in the name of "supporting the Han Dynasty", which was not a change of dynasty, so there was a saying to change the capital.
Fortunately, Liu Bang lived in Nangong, Luoyang for three months, so Liu Xiu simply used Nangong, Luoyang as the imperial palace, which is still legitimate.
From then on, Luoyang City became the capital of the Han Longting Court, and no one could break through it again.
Of course, Luoyang City is not an invincible existence.
Back then, the military sage, Wu Qi, once told Wei Wuhou that the truth lies in virtue but not in danger.
Although this is a bit absolute, it makes sense.
I'm afraid no one would have thought that soon this mighty city with the name of the capital of God would be destroyed by a fire.
The most advanced city in the game like Luoyang City, no one can break the frontal attack, but it is ironically defeated by its own people.
No matter how tall a city is, it is probably irresistible and sinister.
This is the so-called truth that the country lies in virtue but not in danger.
A dynasty ultimately depends on internal unity and stability, that is, on the general trend, if the regime falls into decline.
No matter how strong a city is, it cannot stop the failure or even destruction of a regime.
Losing the hearts of the people means losing everything.
Even a city at the highest imperial capital level like Luoyang City cannot change such a law.
This is the truth.
Ye Tian sighed when he thought of his previous life.
"Although Luoyang City is solid, there are also sayings in this world that the country lies in virtue but not in danger.
What a strong regime, and the city, cannot withstand internal crises and rebellions!
You two said, right?"
"yes!"
Jing Ke and Zhan Zhao both said in unison.
"Don't say much, let's enter Luoyang City first and settle down first!"
Ye Tian glanced at the two of them and said.
"Yes! Lord!"
Immediately, the two of them got off the horse and entered the city with Ye Tian.
Ye Tian had the seals of Sima from other departments, and the three of them were unobstructed along the way.
When they arrived in Luoyang City, several people walked around the city again.
Mainly two points were discovered.
First, the roads in Luoyang City are different from other cities.
His paths are divided into three paths.
There is the imperial way in the middle, but only the emperor and the three dukes and nine ministers can leave.
There are only roads on both sides that civilians can walk on.
Secondly, I discovered that the streets of Luoyang are bustling and extremely lively.
Except for the imperial road in the middle, no one dared to walk, the streets on both sides were filled with people, ox carts carrying carts, officials' carts, shops along the street, and vendors setting up stalls.
Vendors from all directions gathered in Luoyang City, showing the prosperity of the Han capital to the fullest.
Jing Ke and Zhan Zhao were both here in Luoyang City for the first time, and their faces were full of excitement.
However, Ye Tian had already arrived in Luoyang City in his previous life, and now he looked expressionless.
Soon, Ye Tian settled Jing Ke and Zhan Zhao in an inn.
Then he went to the inner city of Luoyang City.
In the past life, everyone knows that there are two extraordinary features in Luoyang City.
One is a real estate office and the other is a Xiyuan official sales office.
These two places are famous among players in previous lives.
But Ye Tian has never been there.
This time he came to Yu Luoyang City, so he naturally wanted to buy an official position, preferably a general.
The West Garden Sales Office is not far from the inn.
It's only an hour's trip from the inn to the West Garden official store.
Of course, the so-called West Garden official store cannot be located in West Garden, it is just not far from West Garden.
Because the West Garden is the garden in which the emperor lives on weekdays!
Ordinary idle people cannot enter.
Just now Ye Tian arrived outside the Xiyuan official sales office, and a person who looked like a slave came out.
"Sir, are you here to buy an official?"
A man who looked like a leader among the slaves asked respectfully.
"That's right, I'm here to buy an official." Ye Tian nodded.
The headmaster showed joy on his face: "Sir, follow me and go to choose an official."
"Okay, you're leading the way."
Ye Tian nodded.
The slave leader immediately bowed and led the way in front.
When I entered the hall of the Xiyuan official sales office, I saw several officials wearing small yellow door clothes chatting idlely.
"Manager Zhao, this adult wants to buy an official position."
Hearing the words of the servant leader, several eunuchs raised their heads one after another.
The eunuch who was about forty years old and called Manager Zhao looked at Ye Tian and said, "Young man, are you going to buy an official?"
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! His voice is sharp and he looks extremely unpleasant.
Ye Tian nodded and said, "That's right, I want to buy an official position. Do you know the vacant official position now?"
"I don't know what official positions there are in specific vacancies, but the vacancies are all on this manual. If you think about it, just tell me directly."
The eunuch immediately handed over to Ye Tian a thick booklet.
Immediately, Ye Tian opened it and looked.
But he soon frowned because he found that at most he had only the position of a lieutenant.
There is no official position at the first level of general, and even the official position at the wrong level of general is not available.
Ye Tian had never been to the West Garden official sales office in his previous life.
I don’t know the specific rules for selling official positions in Xiyuan.
Could it be that the Xiyuan official sales office cannot buy a general-level official position?
Immediately, Ye Tian frowned and asked, "Manager Zhao, I have a doubt, can I answer it?"
"Just say it." The eunuch leader raised his orchid finger and said calmly.
"Why is there no general-level official position above the official position manual of the Xiyuan official sales office? Could it be that it cannot be purchased?" Ye Tian asked frowned.
The eunuch shook his head helplessly and said, "Sir, you don't know. These general-level official positions require military merit to be sold.
