Chapter 482 Move the capital to Chang'an and grant amnesty to the world
While Ma Su led the prince to wait in the middle of the road, and officials greeted him respectfully by the roadside, the team moving the capital was getting closer and closer.
This team is huge, with thousands of people, and the carriage team behind them is like a long queue.
Although Ji Han's royal family prioritized frugality, the palace basically had no financial resources to move around. However, the ministers on duty in the palace also had to move, so the amount of work was not small.
And because the emperor's chariot was the first to arrive in Chang'an, and he planned to award the reward as soon as possible after traveling north to Chang'an. Therefore, all the ministerial offices and all the important ministers working below also got their positions, so they had to move along with them.
As a result, the whole team looked extremely large, as if the royal family had a lot of wealth.
At the front of the team was Liu Chan's emperor's chariot. Among the soldiers of the Southern Army holding flags and guarding him on the left and right, it seemed that Liu Chan had some destiny.
Of course, what surprised Ma Su the most was that the person escorting on horseback at the front of the team was none other than Zhuge Liang.
Does the Prime Minister know how to ride a horse? Ma Su thought that the prime minister could not ride a horse, so he rode a four-wheeled vehicle.
Zhuge Liang personally rode at the front of the team to escort the emperor's chariot, and suddenly the team's force reached the highest level. This kind of treatment was something that even Liu Bei did not have. After all, the late emperor was not willing to let his "water" protect his chariot.
In fact, Zhuge Liang originally planned to drive Liu Chan himself. As a result, not only Liu Chan, but also Shangshutai was the first to strongly oppose this proposal.
In the end, Liu Chan personally came forward to persuade Zhuge Liang, and Zhuge Liang changed from a driver to a horse rider.
As the Emperor's chariot and his party slowly marched from Wugong to outside Chang'an, Liu Chan walked out of the chariot himself.
"Congratulations to Your Majesty on his journey north!"
After seeing Liu Chan, all the officials in Chang'an saluted and welcomed him. Liu Chan responded immediately to the officials, smiling and giving gentle gestures to them.
When the carriage arrived at the foot of Chang'an City and the carriage slowly stopped, Liu Chan couldn't even hold back his excitement. However, he still resisted the urge to laugh and got out of the car himself to prepare to enter the city.
Hold on tight! Can't laugh! I will soon be on par with Emperor Guangwu, I must have a city!
At this time, Zhuge Liang also gently got off his horse and stepped forward to guide Liu Chan into the city. But after seeing Ma Su, Liu Chan immediately stepped forward and helped Ma Su up personally.
"My beloved, please rise. Thank you for your hard work over the years to you, the Prime Minister, and all the loyal ministers and generals who have served the country with all their might!"
"Your Majesty is very complimentary, but I am just a civil servant." Ma Di subconsciously said modestly, but after hearing these words, several officials around him secretly rolled their eyes.
You are considered a civil servant, so who are we?
Sick man?
Liu Chan just nodded to this, and then saw Prince Liu Xuan. Liu Chan was also very satisfied with the changes in the prince. This boy looked a bit like Liu Bei.
Sure enough, it was the right decision to find a matchmaker for the prince, and this tradition should be passed on!
After chatting with a group of veterans, Liu Chan led hundreds of officials into the city under Zhuge Liang's supervision.
Ma Su also followed happily, but halfway he felt someone looking at him from behind. Then Ma Su looked back and saw several little heads on a carriage looking over.
"Your Majesty has a new prince?" Ma Su raised his eyebrows. He found that the children in the car were relatively unfamiliar.
"I heard that my father has two more royal brothers. They should be the third royal brothers." Liu Xuan also took a look and guessed in a low voice.
"The third prince...could it be Liu Chen?" Ma Di couldn't help but feel a little more curious. This third prince was a famous person.
Historically known as the last man of the Shu Han Dynasty, he was the only one among all the princes who died in the country.
Although it seems that death is not very honorable...
Such a staunch prince might be able to serve as the king of the border vassals in the future. After all, now that the capital has been moved to Chang'an, control of the northern border becomes very important.
In this case, it is also a good choice to seal a vassal king in the north to share the military pressure.
However, Ma Su looked away after a few glances, because he found that the prince's eyes looked at him with a hint of resentment. Especially now that he is the one who personally gave Liu Chan the authority to abolish Li Li, every move involves many things.
In case he showed great interest in the third prince, Liu Chan directly misunderstood that it would be bad to abolish Liu Xuan and replace him with the prince.
But soon, Liu Xuan pulled him again, and suddenly whispered to Ma Di with a smile,
"Father, look over there."
"Huh?" Ma Di glanced to the side again, only to see a strange yet familiar young man looking at him curiously in another carriage.
Why do you say that? Because this is Ma Su, the son of the original owner, Ma Ping... At this moment, Ma Su could not see the kindness in his eyes, but more of curiosity towards strangers.
Hmm... It seems that I have indeed neglected the original owner's wife.
Liu Xuan was still snickering at this, but when Ma Su flicked his head without leaving any trace, he immediately became honest.
"Okay, we're going to the palace, be honest."
At this time, the entire people of Chang'an ran out and watched the arrival of the destined emperor from a distance. Liu Chan did not drive directly to the palace gate, but followed Zhuge Liang step by step from the streets of Chang'an to the palace.
Under the escort of the Southern Army soldiers on both sides, the emperor slowly passed through the streets of Chang'an. Amid the cheers of "Long live your Majesty" from the people, Liu Chan officially arrived at the palace in Chang'an.
When he saw the scale of the Chang'an Palace, Liu Chan almost couldn't hold back his smile and his eyes widened.
"Is this Chang'an Palace comparable to my palace in Chengdu...Does this all belong to me?" Liu Chan couldn't help but murmured, with uncontrollable excitement in his eyes.
He was so scared that he could hardly walk. Seeing such a big palace for the first time, Liu Chan was so excited that he could hardly walk.
Finally, after Zhuge Liang's repeated reminders, Liu Chan slowly walked up the steps and sat on the throne with his ministers serving him.
Since then, Emperor Liu Chan of the Han Dynasty officially moved his capital to Chang'an and issued an edict to grant amnesty to the world!
Hundreds of officials stood on both sides, shouting "Long live my emperor" in unison, and the soldiers of the Yulin Army lined up to wait. It was a scene of vitality and all things competing...
All in all, Liu Chan officially moved his capital to Chang'an, which marked the transfer of Ji Han's core area from Shu to Guanzhong.
After he secured the throne, Liu Chan immediately issued an edict for amnesty. This was also discussed with Zhuge Liang as a priority for moving the capital to Chang'an.
At the same time as he was amnestying the world, Liu Chan also issued an edict and began to reward all meritorious officials. All the rewards that were dragged before will be settled by this time!
