    In the spring of the 32nd year of Yuande, in the third month of Jiazi.  The sun was shining brightly, the entire Weiyang Palace was bathed in the spring light, and the Imperial Garden was very lively with birds chirping and flowers fragrant.  Liu Che raised his steps and moved forward slowly. Two nobles in armor, one on the left and one on the right, supported him.  Time makes people grow old, even though he has already conquered the world and ruled the entire world, his titles are getting more and more.  The emperor of Han Dynasty, the Chanyu of Heaven, the God Emperor, the son of Xian Po, the envoy of Ahura As long as you can think of it, the supreme gods of all religions in the world today have been related to him.  Even Western Europeans call him ¡®the illegitimate son of Zeus¡¯.  However, neither the Haotian God Taiyi nor Xian Po, Ahura, or Zeus can stop his aging.  Now, he is an old man in his sixties.  The slightly trembling steps showed that his body had aged to a limit.  "Liu Yang" Liu Che slowly turned around, looked at the nobleman on his left, and stroked his hair: "I heard that you did a pretty good job in the body poisoning" "Father, you are too praiseworthy.  "Yes, this is all due to the hard work of the ministers, and the ministers are just ruling from the top down, using Huang Lao Wuwei's technique, and just sitting back and enjoying the results" The nobleman immediately said respectfully with a smile.  He is Liu Che¡¯s fourth son, Jin Wang Liu Yang, born of Mrs. Xia.  Liu Yang was named King of Jin fourteen years ago, and was immediately sent to the Indian subcontinent, which had just been pacified by Wei Qing's army at that time. He sat in the center of the subcontinent and was ordered to rule the princes, princes, and princes in various parts of the subcontinent.  At the same time, he is responsible for transporting resources from the subcontinent back to the mainland.  Over the past fourteen years, Liu Yang has done very well in India!  Every year, tens of thousands of cotton, gold, jade, grain, cloth and other resources are transported to the Han Dynasty via sea and land.  The economy of the Han Dynasty has continued to prosper for fourteen years, and the national treasury has been increasingly enriched. The gold reserves of Weiyang Palace alone have reached an unprecedented 10 million gold!  "From now on, you and the prince must unite together and work hard to maintain the country!" Liu Che touched his beloved son's hand and warned: "I plan to abdicate, let the prince ascend the throne, and start taking over the country!" "The King of Jin and the King of Qin must let go.  If we agree, let¡¯s help the prince together!¡± ¡°No!¡± The nobleman on Liu Yang¡¯s right nodded immediately.  This man is the current King of Qin, Liu Che's tenth son, and his favorite son, Liu Shen, the son of Mrs. Zhuo.  The current Han Dynasty, because the empire's territory is too vast, the central government cannot take into account and rule all territories.  Therefore, the parallel governance method of the tutelary system and the Duhufu was implemented.  Within the Great Wall is the mainland composed of thirteen states.  Outside the Great Wall, it is ruled by the Protectorate and the Guards.  The Duhu Mansion is dominated by meritorious officials and civil servants with different surnames, while the Guardian Mansion is dominated by relatives of the Liu family.  Since Liu Che appointed his younger brother Liu Yan to take charge of Anxi City, the capital of the Western Regions, twenty years ago, the garrison system has been strict and constantly evolving for twenty years, and now it has even become an indispensable and important part of the empire.  At present, the Han Dynasty has three garrison offices.  They are the Shendu garrison where Jin King Liu Yang is seated. They control almost the entire imperial army, princes, and vassal armies of the Indian subcontinent, and coordinate and manage, allocate resources, and tasks in a unified manner.  Liu Shen, King of Qin, was based in Khotan, the capital of the ancient Kangju state, and controlled the vast land of Central Asia.  As Liu Che¡¯s shadow, Jiangdu King Liu Yan took his place in Anxi City in the Western Regions, managing and ruling the entire Western Regions and Mubei region. ?????????????????? The heads of the garrison houses all lead their feudal states from afar.  For example, King Liu Yang of Qin, his feudal state was in the Guzang Mountain area in Hexi, and King Liu Yan of Jiangdu, his state was still in Jiangdu in his hometown, and he was managed by his descendants.  This pattern is very similar to the pattern in which the Duke of Zhou divided Shaanxi and governed it during the Zong Zhou Dynasty.  Therefore, people at that time regarded the three major guards as the Three Dukes, and they were called the Three Dukes of the Royal Family. They were ranked above the princes and kings and were important ministers at the level of the Prime Minister and Assistant of the country.  And the person who guards the mansion is called the Zhenwang. ?????????????? In addition to these three great kings, today there are vassals and kings of the Han family all over the entire Asian continent.  From Hexi to the Indian subcontinent, more than eighty Liu clan princes and kings are densely populated, firmly controlling the strategic and resource points of the Asian continent.  Hundreds of feudal states with princes and princes, like stars over the moon, completed the colonization around these princes and kingdoms.  In the empire itself, industry has developed extremely rapidly. In just over thirty years, science and technology have been established.?The age of steam has arrived.  The first train track was laid in Andong four years ago, and soon after, railways appeared in Qilu and Luoyang.  The train track plan presided over by Shaofu is advancing in an orderly manner. In the next twenty years, China's railway mileage will likely reach thousands of kilometers, connecting major local cities.  "When will King Yan come back?" Liu Che suddenly asked.  "Reporting to my father, I learned from Da Honglu yesterday that King Yan's fleet has arrived at the Wonu Islands, and it will probably only take more than a month to arrive in Beijing" King Liu Shen of Jin replied.  Liu Che nodded. King Yan Liu Si is the eldest son of Mrs. Zhuo.  This prince, born of a merchant's daughter, married Chen Wanniang, the daughter of Longli Houchen, when he came of age.  Because he grew up in Chen's fleet since he was a child, he showed unusual enthusiasm for the ocean as an adult.  Five years ago, he volunteered to lead a huge fleet on a long sea voyage, determined to complete the unfinished mission of his father-in-law, Long Linhou Chen, to find the legendary Fusang Continent and recover the survivors of the Yin Shang Dynasty.  However, after all, the Han family had just learned how to sail in the ocean, so it was still somewhat difficult to cross the vast ocean and get to the other side.  "When King Yan returns to the capital, ask him to come see me immediately" Liu Che said with a smile, "I haven't seen him for several years" "No!" The two princes nodded immediately.  "I'm tiredyou guys please step back" Liu Che waved his hand, and with the help of two maids, he walked to a pavilion and sat down.  This pavilion is located in front of the Imperial Garden of Weiyang Palace, overlooking the entire Chang'an City.  This is Liu Che¡¯s favorite resting place in the past two years.  Staring at the Chang'an City in front of him, Liu Che sighed twice.  Compared with thirty years ago, the Chang'an in front of us has completely changed!  This great imperial capital has now become the center of the world.  The city is dotted with countless villages, and millions of people gather here. In the distant suburbs, chimneys stand tall, spitting out thick smoke.  The Weihe River, Fengshui River, waterall turned into smelly rivers by the pollutants discharged from these factories and workshops.  The air is filled with various rotten and moldy smells.  In the city, capitalists chasing profits and opportunities are in the ascendant and full of ambition.  ¡°As he thought back then, the terrible monster called the bourgeoisie has been hatched.  The terrifying monster called capitalism has revealed its ferocious face to the entire world.  Tens of millions of Yi and Di slaves and bonded workers were enslaved, controlled, and exploited by them.  From the Great Wall to the Indian subcontinent and even continental Europe, these terrible existences spread war, famine and exploitation everywhere. ? And capital knows no borders, these people are not just exploiting foreigners.  Even the compatriots who were fellow robes of Zhu Xia were not spared.  From Chang'an to Linzi, tens of millions of Xia subjects were driven into workshops and engaged in all kinds of heavy, boring and arduous work.  Thanks to their blessing, the Han Empire flourished and its treasury was filled with gold and jewels.  Granaries everywhere are filled with grain and copper coins.  The most extreme evil gave birth to the most prosperous empire in human history.  As Liu Che can see now, the population of the Han Empire has exceeded 150 million, and the household registration has reached an unprecedented 30 million households.  "I, I saw the smoke and the flames of war" Liu Che whispered as he looked at the city in front of him.  He knew that the fury of the revolution was brewing, boiling, and boiling in private.  The people of Zhuxia can no longer endure such cruel exploitation and oppression.  Rather than waiting for Chen Sheng and Wu Guang to rise up, it is better to wield the butcher knife yourself first and cut off the claws of those greedy and cruel powerful people.  "Have the Tiger Guards and the Yulin Guards assembled?" Liu Che asked a eunuch next to him, who was his confidant in recent years.  "Your Majesty, the Huben Guards and Yulin Guards are on standby!" "Where are the Feihu Army and Juzhu Army?" Liu Che asked again.  "Reporting to your majesty, I just received the information that the Feihu Army has arrived in Luoyang, and the Juzhu Army got off in Taiyuan" "Good!" Liu Che nodded: "Waiting for my order" "We will take action immediately after the meeting.  ! Put all big cities under military control, issue my order, order all merchants with a net income of more than 10 million to truthfully report their property and capital, and ask them to sign the five-hour work system decree!" Liu Che ordered calmly!  : "Go and tell the Mohists, Huang-Lao School, and Confucian schoolsChief of the mountain, mobilize students to take to the streets for rallies to publicize the necessity and urgency of the "five-hour work system"!  " "Send people to control the Legalist schools and put all the Legalist giants under house arrest until the world is settled!  "This was the last thing he had to do before abdicating. "It is also full of irony. After the rise of capital, the most active ones to resist the erosion of capital were Mohism and Confucianism. In order to fight against capital, Confucianism and Mohism even formed an unprecedented alliance.  They have formed an alliance. But the momentum of history cannot be stopped by words. Even Liu Che can do nothing to force the capitalists to bow their heads.  Make concessions to the lower level. "Promise!"  "The eunuch heard the words and accepted the order. "I can only do this one step" Liu Che sighed leisurely: "What will happen to the world in the future will be judged by those who come after" But no one is around him anymore.  . Zhou Yafu died of illness in the 21st year of Yuande. Chao Cuo died before Zhou Yafu in the second year. He became ill due to overwork and was succeeded by Zhang Tang.  In the 30th year of Yuande's reign, Ji An also died of typhoid at his residence last year. Even Liu Che's concubines passed away one by one, and those around him now are just canaries.  . So, like his father and grandfather, Liu Che truly became a lonely man. But the world will continue to move forward, and Liu Che can no longer tell what the future will look like. But he knows that the path he has chosen is not wrong.
