During this period, Li Chao has been busy stabilizing the situation in the sixteen prefectures of Shandong East. He is busy raising grain, preventing and rescuing disasters, and pacifying the chaos.

Now the emperor is about to arrive, but Li Chao has not been able to build a palace in Xiangyang City.

When Li Chao left Xiangyang to quell the rebellion, he assigned tasks to the officials who were left behind to prepare a palace for the emperor in Xiangyang. As a result, when Li Chao returned to Xiangyang, he found that the so-called palace was not suitable at all.

It was a manor of a large family in the city. It was very delicate and beautiful, but not big. There was no place to be stationed in the surrounding area, and there was no place to work for the various yamen of the court.

The emperor was not really here to patrol down the mountain. After coming to Xiangyang, he had to stay here for at least several years. He had to wait until the Hanjing was completed before the emperor would move to Xinjing. Anyway, after leaving Chang'an, it would be impossible for the emperor to go back within a few years. The layout in Xiangyang City was not suitable.

Standing at the head of Xiangyang City, Li Chao looked to the east.

"Yuliangzhou!"

Li Chao patted the battlements with his hand and chanted softly.

"When returning to the prime minister, it was indeed Yuliangzhou. In the past, when the waters fell on Xianjin, the people in the continent took bamboo and wood as beams to catch fish, so they took Yuliangzhou after they had changed. This continent has many names, such as Yuezhou, Guyu, Yuniangzhou, Dahezhou, Wuliangzhou, Dashazhou, Wulangzhou, etc.."

The old elders who served here for several years introduced to Li Chao, "According to the water classics and in the Mian River, there is Yuliangzhou in the Mian River, which was lived by Pang Degong. The Xiangyang County Chronicles also recorded that during the Eastern Han Dynasty, Liu Biao, the governor of Jingzhou, built a high platform twenty miles east of Xiangyang City to raise eagles, called Huyingtai, and falcons on this continent for hunting and freedom."

Mian River, also known as the Han River.

Yuliangzhou is twenty miles east of Xiangyang City.

Although it is called the continent, it is actually not an island, but a prominent peninsula surrounded by Han River on three sides. However, there is a section connecting Xiangyang City that is low-lying. Once the Han River is large in volume, the section connecting Xiangyang will be flooded, and the continent is like a large island in the river.

Now there is no rain after a long drought and Yuliangzhou is connected to Yuliangping.

Yuliangzhou is quite unique. It is surrounded by water on three sides and leans against mountains on one side, like a ox horn arching to the northeast. The Han River flows from northwest to Xiangyang, turning to the northeast, forming a V-shaped shape. In the north of Yuliangzhou, the Qingshui flows into the Tang River here, and then the Han River turns to the south.

Yuliangzhou can be called the Pearl of the Han River. When the water in the river is full, it is surrounded by water on three sides. Especially the area is very large, twenty-one miles long from north to south, ten miles wide from east to west, and nearly thirty square kilometers.

The entire sandbank is in the shape of a sea hall leaf, which is actually a sandbank in the middle formed by the silt of the Han River and the Tangbai River.

"There is a low-lying area between Yuliangzhou and Yuliangping. If we dig a little, we can dig a low trench here, which can lead the Han River to naturally straighten it. Yuliangzhou will become a big island." Li Chao pointed at Yuliangzhou and said.

The Changshi was a little puzzled. Why did he dig up Yuliangzhou and Yuliangping for nothing?

When the Han River rises, Yuliangzhou is isolated from Yuliangping, which makes it very inconvenient for the people and has to take a boat to row and row. In the dry season, the two sides are connected, so why do you deliberately dig a ditch?

Digging a trench becomes a real island.

Li Chao smiled. He really wanted to turn Yuliangzhou into a large continental island directly.

The purpose is also very simple, which is to let Li Shimin live on this big island.

It is a big island that is twenty-one miles long, ten miles wide, and nearly thirty square kilometers. Li Shimin really lives on the island wherever he wants. Not only is Li Shishi living on it loose, but the various yamen in the court can also be placed on the island. Even the imperial guards brought by Li Shimin can also be stationed on the island.

It is convenient in terms of space and safety.

To the north is Fancheng and to the south is Xiangyang. The Han River passes around the island and there is also clean water flowing in.

No matter how you look at it, it's all very good.

The province is crowded in Xiangyang City, and the security situation is complicated.

During the Southern Song Dynasty, in order to fight against the Yuan army, the Song army built solid platforms on Yuliangzhou, trained 70,000 naval troops, built 5,000 warships, and fought with the Yuan army for five years.

Now it is more than enough to throw Li Shimin, his harem, his court, and his imperial guards on the island.

Li Chengqian stood behind Li Chao, picked up a fried golden fried locust from the retail bag and threw it into his mouth, chewing it creaked.

"That place is really good, but there is no house built there yet!"

There are some continental people on the island, but not many. If you invite the emperor to the top, just move the people above. There is even such a wide river surrounding it, which is convenient and safe to guard it. There is no need to build any city walls. You can use it by making some silhouette walls.

However, the emperor can't go to the deserted island to survive.

Not to mention the palace, there must be a palace. There must be a yamen in the three provinces and six ministries, and there must be a yamen in the three provinces and six ministries. The twelve guards, four prefectures, three inner courts, and five prefectures, plus the four armies of the northern yamen, the general must also build a military camp.

In seven days, Li Chao could not change into a palace or a temporary capital.

"It's almost done in seven days. We can set up some tents first and set up a tent to welcome His Majesty." Li Chao said.

Li Chengqian nodded and continued to chew the locusts. This was the locust he fried himself. After learning Li Chao's recipe, he fryed out various flavors, such as spicy, spicy, crispy, pepper and salt. These locust snacks are also deeply loved by Li Chao's other students.

Now the prince and the others are carrying a schoolbag on their backs, with books, pencils and paper inside, but they are also stocked with locusts. They have some chewed some if you have something to do, and it is very satisfying to have a good idea. He thinks Li Chao's idea is quite good, and the scenery on Yuliangzhou is so good.

As for living in a tent or something, it doesn’t matter, just stay for a few days.

The chief minister was very surprised.

Letting the emperor live in a deserted island and a tent is simply a traitor.

"Prime Minister, should you think about it again!"

"The prince also thinks Yuliangzhou is pretty good."

"But that's a deserted island. Now it's cold. Winter is about to begin. By then, it will be even colder on Jiangzhou. Staying in a tent is not a long-term solution."

"I didn't say I wanted to live in a tent for a long time. It wouldn't take long to build some temporary palace houses. It would take seven or eight days to build a house. Since I could build one, it would be OK to build ten, eight or one hundred, but it was just a little more manpower."

"Build a house in seven days? How is this possible? It is impossible to dig a foundation, mine stones and cut trees, rammed earth, etc.!" The Changshi was dissatisfied with Li Chao's attitude. It was related to the emperor's residence, even if it was a temporary residence, it could not be vague at all.
Chapter completed!
