I Have a Mythical Tree

Chapter 220: Primordial Beginning

After more than four months of busy construction in Taicheng, tens of thousands of young and strong Taicheng, all craftsmen in the craftsman's mansion, and many thaumaturgies have begun to take shape.

In the center of Taicheng, where the ancient stars and stars grow, there is still a very wide open space.

This vacant land was originally intended to be used for the construction of the palace, but I don't know what kind of considerations Ji Xia had, he never let the craftsman's mansion start construction, but let them go all out to build Taicheng, and the matter of the palace will be postponed for later discussion.

Therefore, all court meetings and discussions of the royal court were held in a spacious, simple and generous cowhide military tent.

After the repeated battles with Qi Ling, all the soldiers returned, and Ji Xia proclaimed himself king at the gate of Taicheng. The whole Taicheng was filled with an extremely contradictory atmosphere.

Taicang's victory, under the covetousness of a powerful enemy, won the life for hundreds of thousands of people, it is naturally something to be happy about.

But in this innocent disaster, more than 2,000 Tai Cang soldiers died in Tai Cang, of which there were as many as 400 Tai Cang Silver Guards, and the rest were Cang Defenders.

This was a heavy blow to Tai Cang, whose total military strength was only in the early ten thousand.

On another level, the death of so many sons of Tai Cang who defended the country made all the people of Tai Cang feel heavy hearted.

Taicang has a small population and has lived here for generations. It is no exaggeration to say that these soldiers in Taicang are the sons and fathers of all the people of Taicang. Now that the sons and fathers died in battle, almost the whole country is sad.

Now in Wang Ting's military tent, the faces of all the officials in Taicang are a little sad and mixed.

And Ji Xia sat at the top, with her hair tied up in a fine attire, her expression was calm, and there was a bit of gloom between her brows.

"Tai Cang Erlang, have the casualties been counted?" He looked at the file before the case and asked.

There was a senior Yin Luyu who came out, bowed to Ji Xia, and said: "My lord, in this battle, my Taicang suffered heavy casualties. Three hundred and ninety-one Taicang silver guards died, and the Cang defenders had 1,500 soldiers." There are one hundred and seventy-five people, and there are about five hundred more people with mutilated limbs, who are no longer able to defend their homeland."

Ji Xia's expression became more gloomy. He looked at Ronglou and Poxian in the queue and asked, "Have the two prefectures of Taicheng and Cangcheng negotiated a standard for compensation?"

Ronglou and Poxian, who were almost standing in the front, went out to salute. The two exchanged a glance, and Ronglou said, "The discussion has been completed. All the family members of the Cangshou army who were killed or injured will pay for their food and clothing in the future." Ordinary female officials in the palace are the standard, and the two governments are responsible. Besides, after the reform, these families will be exempted from all taxes."

"There is also a detailed rule. Both the Tai and Cang Prefectures will issue detailed standards, which will be submitted to the royal court tomorrow for the king to judge."

Ji Xia nodded, thought for a while and said: "One more thing, all the people in these families will have a quota of Tailai Lingshui every seven days."

Ronglou and Poxian said respectfully, "I obey."

After Ji Xia dealt with the matter of paying compensation to the relatives of the soldiers who died in battle, he glanced at the ministers and said, "Let's take turns."

Fang Lu, the master of the Pharmacist's Mansion, came out and said, "Your Majesty, the Pharmacist's Mansion has moved into the new mansion, and the servants have been able to skillfully complete many prescriptions bestowed by the King, but... Tai Cang is very short of many medicinal materials and spiritual herbs. It cannot be refined in large quantities."

"I have my own solution to this matter, and the Pharmacist's Mansion will work hard to study the elixir."

Fang Lu should be respectful.

Another Shangyin Luyu came out and said: "The Taicang reform proposed by the king last time,

Many officials such as the Wang Ting and the two governments have studied in detail and established many regulations. "

"Many casting masters in the Craftsman's Mansion and Gu Xuan, the master of the Spiritual Weapons Pavilion, worked together to cast four currency spiritual weapons. Now it is only necessary for the king to set the currency style and materials, and then Gu Xuan slightly changes the spiritual weapons."

Ji Xia sat up and asked, "Have the candidates for the household government been selected? The household household is in charge of finance, official salary, land, household registration, currency and many other matters, so we can't be careless."

Lu Yu's face froze and said: "The person in charge of land and household registration has been selected, but the person in charge of finance and currency... Your Majesty, Taicang really does not have the talents who are proficient in arithmetic as the King said."

Ji Xia rubbed his chin, thought for a moment and said, "In this case, I will seal up the four currency spiritual weapons and let no one touch them. I will discuss it after I confirm the person who will be in charge of the household."

Lu Yu saluted respectfully.

The farmer's mansion, Gu Shu, said worriedly: "Your Majesty, the entire Jiugou, 200,000 souls, have been slaughtered. The blood in the Jiugou city has flowed into rivers, and the stench is suffocating. Countless cattle, sheep and livestock from many tribes have all died. ! Tai Cang’s meat supply can only last for one month, if there is no meat supply within one month, Tai Cang will have no meat to eat.”

Ji Xia nodded and asked, "What can the Palace Master do?"

Gu Shu bowed and said, "After the solitude of the day, I brought back thousands of cows and tens of thousands of sheep from Jiugou, and sent people to Jiugou to learn the methods of animal husbandry in case of accidents."

"Now that the doves and dogs are extinct, it happens to be based on these cattle and sheep to breed livestock, but it still needs the work of the Craftsman's Mansion and Tianfu Pavilion to build cattle sheds and sheep sheds, and distribute warm stones, so that in the future, there will be no need to be afraid of livestock. Frozen to death, and then look for Tai Cang’s people, and teach them how to raise them systematically, within three years, Tai Cang will no longer have to worry about the problem of not having enough meat.”

Hearing this, Ji Xia praised: "The Master of the Gu Palace is a great talent, naturally sheds must be built, and more sheds must be built, but you can't just raise cattle and sheep."

Gu Shu was stunned for a moment, and said, "Your Majesty, now I have no other livestock except cattle and sheep."

Ji Xia smiled and said: "Build the shed first, and then there will be livestock."

When Gu Shu retreated, many ministers continued to play a role, and proposed strategies and methods for discussion by all ministers.

At the end of the court meeting, Ji Xia stood up and said, "Send someone to deliver a letter to the dense forest of the Southern Forbidden City, and ask Wenye to send monsters to Jiugou to burn all the corpses, so as not to spread the disease to Taicang along the wind."

"The Yunyuanling rice planted will take four months to mature. The Farmer's Mansion must keep an eye on the rising trend and not be negligent."

"The construction of the new city will continue. Although the Qingyangyuan part of the new city has not yet been inhabited, we must do our best. The population of Taicang is small now. When the population increases in the future, it will be of great use there."

"My lords, is there anything else to play?"

The head of the ceremony came out, full of vigor, and bowed to Ji Xia: "Now the king is called the king, and he still needs a title. I have discussed with the master for a long time, and I will present the selected title to the king. I also ask the king to rule."

A palace guard presented a volume of jade slips, Ji Xia opened it and saw three titles of kings written on it.

"King Gaohao, King Hanzheng, and King Jiayang."

After each king title, two people quoted scriptures and explained in detail.

Seeing these three titles, Ji Xia lowered his head and thought about it, then shook his head and said, "These three titles are not very good."

Both Chang Feng and Zhao Qu said in panic: "Why not?"

Ji Xia said: "It doesn't sound good."

Chang Feng and Zhao Qu were all taken aback, bowed their heads and remained silent.

Ji Xia casually put the jade slip in his hand aside, thought for a while, and said softly: "The name of the king, let's call it Taichu."

Chang Feng and Zhao Qu looked at each other, thought for a while and said, "Too is the most and extreme; the beginning is the beginning. Taichu is indeed very good!"

Ji Xia nodded, ignored the important ministers kneeling down, congratulated the "Prince Taichu", waved lightly and said, "Disappear."
