Originally, although Cao Zhi and the others said that Luoyang was a desolate place, they actually had some expectations for Luoyang. They felt that this was a city that had survived for at least a hundred years. Even if it was a fire, it shouldn't be able to burn too many things. No matter what, planting a few things in the field should not be a problem for a few farmers.
However, when they arrived in Luoyang and saw the tragic scene in Luoyang, everyone tacitly fell silent. The little bit of hope that he had for Luoyang earlier had all turned into ashes in this one look. Really, not a single residue was left.
What appeared in front of them was Luoyang, which had been ravaged by the flames of war. It was a dilapidated land that had been burned to ruins by the fire.
The prosperity of the past had disappeared without a trace. There was no majesty described in the poems, nor was there the grandeur recorded in the history books. Even if he called anyone over, he would not feel that this was the former capital because it was too miserable.
In front of Cao Zhi and the others were broken walls and broken walls, and thorns were everywhere. Every step they took was almost on scorched earth and weeds. The once majestic palace had already turned into ruins, destroyed by countless weeds and withered trees. Countless desolate leaves danced in the air, and the entire city was a desolate scene.
It really matched Cao Cao's poem.
White bones were exposed in the wild, and there was no rooster crowing for thousands of miles!
Cao Zhi was shocked when he saw the once glorious capital city turn into such a scene.
Feeling the desolation and desolation that could be seen, Cao Zhi's emotions were stimulated. He had only seen descriptions of Luoyang's desolation in the history books, but he did not think much of it. But now that he had witnessed it with his own eyes, Cao Zhi truly felt the weight of history from the bottom of his heart and the responsibility that he was about to shoulder.
The flames of war raged and the people were in dire straits. How could he not feel sad when such a situation really appeared in front of his eyes? Cao Zhi finally understood the feelings and thoughts of those who were dedicated to the people in history.
Yang Xiu and the Ding Brothers were also shocked by this scene in front of them. Each and every one of the scholars who had been boasting about their poems on the road were also speechless at this moment.
Cao Zhi turned his head and looked at them. His eyes revealed unprecedented determination as he said,"Are you willing to create a prosperous world with me?”
When the three of them heard Cao Zhi's words, they all looked at him in shock. At this moment, they truly felt the difference between the current Cao Zhi and the Cao Zhi of the past.
That meant that he was ambitious!
He was no longer the scholarly young master who only knew how to recite poems and compose Fu all day long!
Now that Cao Zhi had laid out his ambition in front of them, the three of them were touched by Cao Zhi's sincerity.
What else can I ask for?
Without hesitation, the three of them knelt down in front of Cao Zhi and said in unison,""Thank you for your kindness, Young Master. I will definitely go through fire and water and die!”
The protagonist looked at the three of them and smiled slightly. He was also certain in his heart.
He had finally taken his first step in this chaotic world of the Three Kingdoms.
Then everything that followed would depend on his strength!
Cao Zhi looked at the ruins in front of him, his eyes shining.
......
Cao Zhi understood Cao Cao's meaning. He said that he wanted him to farm, but in reality, he wanted to see if he had the ability to govern a region. In other words, he wanted to see if he had political strength.
Cao Zhi knew that this was Cao Cao testing whether he had the qualifications to be the Crown Prince and whether he could be his successor so that he could take over the world in the future. This was also a test for him, or rather, a test.
Therefore, Cao Zhi, who understood Cao Cao's thoughts, did not dare to slack off.
The addition of Yang Xiu three people also let the burden of the protagonist relax a bit.
First, Cao Zhi sent the officials he brought over and used the funds he brought over from Ye City to recruit some refugees as migrant workers. He built a place for them to live and then cleaned up the ruins.
After that, they started to establish a complete system, which was the garrison system. Cao Zhi handed this matter to Ding Xiong.
Actually, Cao Zhi had already explained the process. As long as Ding Qiong followed the instructions, it would be fine. First, he would let them reclaim the wasteland and use work as a form of relief. At night, they would live together in the dormitory provided by Cao Zhi. Cao Zhi would provide food and accommodation. To be precise, he was a very practical tool.
Other than this, Cao Zhi was still not satisfied. Before he came to Luoyang, he might have only wanted to implement the reform of the garrison system and let Cao Cao see that the garrison system he proposed was absolutely feasible. However, after arriving in Luoyang, Cao Zhi changed his decision. He decided not only to reform the garrison system, but he also wanted to build a peerless city that would be recorded in the history books, remembered by future generations, and shocked the world in this declining imperial capital!
........
After Cao Zhi left Ye City, Cao Pi was the happiest.
No one expected Cao Zhi to really go to Luoyang to implement the reform of the garrison system. In the eyes of countless people, this was an extremely retarded act.
"Young Master Zhi's actions are tantamount to destroying his own future. From now on, Young Master Zhi's position in the Prime Minister's heart will probably change drastically.”
"In my opinion, Cao Zijian can forget about the position of Crown Prince. The position of Crown Prince must belong to our Young Master Pi!”
"What everyone said is extremely reasonable. This one also thinks that Young Master Zhi's actions are no different from a foolish man.”
"What stupid man? I think Cao Zhi is just a scholar who plays with words. How would he know about the great plans of the world? Don't think that Huarong Sect can do whatever they want just because they saved the Prime Minister's life. They only had themselves to blame for being demoted to Luoyang!”
......
Under the slander of a group of people, Cao Zhi, who had originally gone to Luoyang on his own, had actually been demoted by Cao Cao.
As Cao Pi listened to everyone's words, he became happier and happier. When he turned around, he saw Sima Yi sitting silently in his seat. He rolled his eyes and asked,""Dare I ask what Zhong Da thinks of my brother's trip?”
"Ridiculous, unreasonable, and extremely stupid!" Sima Yi's eyes revealed a look of disdain without hesitation." As a Young Master, he was favored and should have been careful with his words and actions. He should have racked his brains to please the Prime Minister, but Young Master Zhi went against his principles and repeatedly contradicted the Prime Minister, causing the Prime Minister to be extremely dissatisfied with him. If this is not the action of a fool, then the soldiers sweeping the roads at the entrance of Ye City can be considered smart people.”
When Sima Yi said this, it was as if he had made a conclusion about Cao Zhi. In an instant, everyone began to laugh at Cao Zhi.
Cao Pi raised his glass and drank happily. The entire Young Master Manor was filled with excitement.
