The first prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 1195 The Wayward Zhao Xu
"You are a good young man. To my old man's appetite, let's make a year-end friendship today. In the future, if you cook game, I will provide fine wine. How about it?"

"Okay, my name is Brother Zhao Tianlin. What's your name? I can't always call you an old man. Didn't you say that we are old friends? I don't even know your name. How can I become a new year friend?" Zhao Xu smiled. said.

The name Zhao Tianlin was almost used up by Zhao Xu, but Zhao Xu was not lying. It was a word Zhao Kuangyin gave him back then. Zhao Xu's word was Tianlin, and Zhao Tianlin was Zhao Xu's other name.

"Tianlin, Tianlin, Tianshenglin'er, with a good name, your parents must have placed high expectations on you. I have forgotten my name, so you can call me Old Litou, how about it. "

"Old Li Tou, En En is good to be old and may forget at any time, so I will not be polite to you, I will call you Old Li Tou, and I will not call you Brother Li anymore. By the way, Brother Li, Why are you here alone, should I take you back, your family should be worried after so long."

"Haha, how cunning, you want to send me home, but don't worry, even if you don't think so today, I also want you to visit my house. I never thought that I would meet such an interesting little brother today. Thinking of me when I was young, I really envy you young people."

Old Li sighed, and he was indeed a little older, probably because he was a little sad to see Zhao Xu so energetic.

"Old man, with aspirations for thousands of miles, a martyr in his twilight years, full of ambition, haven't you heard of it, old man Li, then why are you sobbing, when everyone is old, I will be like you in decades, this is No one can change the laws of nature, just like this green hill, who can imagine what they will look like in a hundred or a thousand years?"

Sometimes the sea turns into a mulberry field, and people sometimes die, old age, sickness, and death. What Zhao Xu meant was that you, an old fellow, don't say anything.

"Yes, the old man is not as clear as the little brother, and what he said is right. You can see this with Tianlin. This green mountain was probably a vast ocean a thousand years ago, so the old man really thought about it, yes Tianlin, didn’t you say that Jinling City is dominated by tigers and dragons, do you know the origin of Jinling City?”

"Old Li, I really know Jinling City, and I have worked hard on it. If you want to test me, then your attempt will be in vain. Listen to me and tell you slowly. Right." Zhao Xu really understands Jinling City, no matter in the past life or the present life, Zhao Xu knows everything.

The Nanjing of later generations and today's Jinling have had many names over the long years, among which the most famous name is "Jinling".

Jinling is the most elegant and ancient official name of Nanjing. The thirteen beauties of Jinling that appeared in later generations are all related to Jinling.

When it comes to the origin of Jinling City, many people generally believe that it got its name because Zhongshan in Nanjing was called Jinling Mountain in the Spring and Autumn Period.

It is said that in 330 BC, King Wei of Chu built a city on the current Qingliang Mountain after he destroyed the Yue Kingdom.

Because Zijin Mountain was called Jinling Mountain at that time, and its remaining hills did not have their own names. Chuyi was built on Qingliang Mountain, and Qingliang Mountain was a part of Jinling Mountain at that time, so the city was named Jinling Yi.

Zhao Xu is clear about these histories, and it's not that he's talking nonsense. These are all based on history, and there are classics to look up.

The "Jiankang Shilu" of the Tang Dynasty clearly records that King Wei of Chu "established the name because of the mountain and set up Jinling Town", that is, the name of the mountain was used as the name of the town.

This also proves that King Wei of Chu built a city, which also said that because the Yangtze River was still flowing under the western foot of Qingliang Mountain, and Jinling was facing the river to control the Huaihe River, the situation was very dangerous, so King Wei of Chu chose to build Jinling here. Yi, who wants to use the Yangtze River natural moat as a barrier to plot the world.

Jinling Yi is the second ancient city in Nanjing's history after Yuecheng.From the perspective of urban structure, it looks like a small castle; but in terms of nature, it is completely different from Yuecheng. It is a Champa with the nature of an administrative district, marking the beginning of the establishment of administrative divisions in Nanjing, and it is also called Jinling in Nanjing. start.

"Tianlin, why do you say Nanjing? Why didn't I know when Jinling became Nanjing?" Old Li was very puzzled, because Zhao Xu said a few words, Nanjing.

At this time, no one called Jinling Nanjing. Now that Zhao Xu said that Jinling was the old man of Nanjing, he was really depressed. This name was really uncommon.

Zhao Xu also didn't know how to explain it for a while, because he spoke quickly and said Nanjing directly, which made him feel that Zhao Xu didn't understand what he said.

Fortunately, Zhao Xu still had a few of them. This question couldn't help him. He could speak out, and he had his own reasons, so he had his own reasons.

"Uh, this is my slip of the tongue. Old Li, you see, I think so. There is Bianjing in the north, which is the capital of the Song Dynasty, and Jinling is the capital of the Tang Dynasty. There is nothing wrong with being called Nanjing. This There is nothing wrong with the mutual echo of one south and one north."

Zhao Xu's explanation is also reasonable. The Song Dynasty has Bianjing, which is in the north. The Tang Dynasty can also have one that echoes him, so it can be called Nanjing. This is also possible. At least Zhao Xu thinks so, such The reason is really flawless.

"Well, yes, it makes sense. Why didn't this old man think about it before? I think it makes sense after hearing what you said today. If one day the north and the south belong to the same country, then it is really possible. This is a matter for the rulers, and it is beyond the reach of us ordinary people."

Old Li's eyes sparkled. Although this young man just said that, he probably didn't think much about it himself, but Old Li was thinking about who this Zhao Tianlin was.

He could think of changing Jinling to Nanjing, although he just said that, but can it be thought of by ordinary people, can it be dared to think by ordinary people? He not only thought about it, but also said it.

"I believe there will always be a day, because the North and the South are originally a family, no matter whether the official is from the Song Dynasty or the Tang Dynasty, we were all one family before, and the family had divisions and reunions, but in the end they will always reunite, and the North and the South will be unified. It’s imperative, but it’s not there yet.”

Zhao Xu also expressed his anger without any scruples. This unification is a matter of time. Even if it doesn't exist now, there will be in the future. At that time, he will definitely change the name of Jinling to Nanjing, and there will be Beijing in the future. Zhao Xu wanted them to appear in the famous city.

why?
That's because I like it, I like to do it, I have to do it, because I am the prince, I am the heir of the country, I have such qualifications, what's wrong with me being so willful, can any of you say anything?

That's how Zhao Xu is. Who dares to do anything?
