The first prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 857 Arriving in Chengdu
"Your Majesty's message from the border of Shu Kingdom!" Zhao Kuangyin was flipping through the memorial when Xiao Shunzi outside came in and whispered to Zhao Kuangyin.

It is not worth mentioning that the news came from the border, but Xiao Shunzi ran over with a serious face and told Zhao Kuangyin specifically.

Note that Xiao Shunzi specifically mentioned the word "Shu border", and Zhao Kuangyin suddenly raised his head.

"Hurry up and let me have a look!" Zhao Kuangyin was extremely excited. In fact, at this stage, Zhao Kuangyin was quite concerned about the affairs of Shu.

He specially instructed that as long as there is news from the Shu Kingdom, he must be notified as soon as possible. Who dares to disobey the emperor's words.

"Okay, you did a good job, Xiao Shunzi went out with me for a walk!" Zhao Kuangyin was in a rare mood, and even asked to go for a walk.

I really don't know what was written on the memorial that made Zhao Kuangyin so happy, but Xiao Shunzi would not ask.

How his former chief eunuch Zhang Dejun died is still fresh in his memory. He knows what he should know and what he should not ask himself.

But Zhao Kuangyin actually went directly to the Prince's East Palace this time, and he went directly to the two emperor's grandsons. It seems that he missed his grandson.

Zhao Kuangyin didn't let the eunuch follow him, and approached slowly by himself, and his movements were quite light, because this is where his two grandsons study.

Zhao Kuangyin also didn't make a sound, just watched here quietly for a while, then left quietly, and continued to deal with his memorial.

For Zhao Kuangyin, while governing the country well, the happiness of his children and grandchildren is the greatest happiness. Even being able to watch his grandson studying hard from a distance is very satisfying to him.

At this time, in the territory of Houshu, inside a castle-like house.

"What, you said that all the people in that cottage disappeared, and no one came down?"

"Yes, the castle master. After our people went up, we didn't see a single person. Everything on it was intact, but there was no one."

"Then you didn't look at the back mountain, maybe they escaped from the back mountain?"

"The owner of the castle won't. The back mountains are full of cliffs, and there is no way to pass through. By the way, judging by the scale of this cottage, there are about ten thousand people. It seems that they shouldn't be able to go far."

"Okay, since that's the case, go chase it for me, and chase it in several ways. There is no one who can escape from under the nose of our Yan Wangbao. They must not be the first. Go."

That's right, this is the Fort of Hades, and the person who issued the order just now was Zhou Shengtian, the murderous Hades king. He didn't expect that the place where he issued the order of Hades would already be let someone go upstairs.

This made him feel very upset, because Yanwangbao had never encountered such a thing, but this time the strange thing he encountered was still to come!
Let's not talk about him, let's talk about Zhao Xu. Ever since he broke up with the people in the Fushu cottage in the mountain, he went into the mountain alone.

According to the direction Li Zhong pointed, he plunged headlong into the mountain. It might not be easy for others to live in this towering mountain, but for Zhao Xu, it was like meeting water.

The most powerful person in the mountains is not a lion or a tiger, nor a leopard or a wild boar, but a man, but him, and he is still holding the seven-star Longyuan sword in his hand at this time.

Zhao Xu finally came out after wandering in the mountains for two days. The mountains were not at all peaceful these two days, and those small animals really suffered.

Now that Zhao Xu walked out of the mountain, they all had tears in their eyes, thanking God in their hearts for finally letting Zhao Xu, the devil, go away. If we don't leave, we will all be finished.

It can be seen how cruel Zhao Xu is to the small animals in the forest. Zhao Xu has been barbecuing for the past two days, and he is still enjoying it. When he came out, he sighed up to the sky and said confidantly:
"I don't know when I can eat such a good barbecue again. It seems that when I can come back is the best time."

Zhao Xu's words made all the small animals in the mountains shudder, and then fled in all directions.

It was already noon when Zhao Xu entered the city, and he was already hungry, but Zhao Xu didn't have any money on him.

But this can't help him, because there is his property here, which is the Taoxiang Building. This Chengdu city is the capital of the Hou Shu Kingdom. How could Zhao Xu give up opening a Taoxiang Building here, which can make money and be convenient? Why not send information!

So there are also here, and the scale is not small, and Meng Chang is also very fond of Taoxianglou, and even sent his imperial chef to study.

That is to say, the Taoxiang Tower is in Hou Shu, although it is not like in the Song Dynasty, it is also related to the royal family, and it is also smooth sailing.

Zhao Xu went directly to the shopkeeper of the Taoxianglou, and said a few words of their internal secrets without saying a word, and at the same time showed his senior status.

Immediately, he was taken to the back room where they had a secret meeting. Zhao Xu didn't talk nonsense, and asked them to give him something light to eat first, because his stomach was almost empty.

"By the way, I know that the people from Suyiwei have all come to Chengdu. Help me contact them. I want to see them. I have important things to tell them to do."

"Yes son, I saw the two vice-commanders a few days ago. They haven't come these few days, but I can contact them. I'll do it now. You can eat with peace of mind first."

After finishing speaking, the boss left respectfully, while Zhao Xu ate a full meal by himself in peace of mind.

He didn't wait for Su Yiwei's people here, but went directly to the street for a stroll. He knew that if Su Yiwei's envoy came, he would definitely wait there. He was assured of that. .

As for his coming here for a walk, that is to see the life of the people in Chengdu. The quality of a country depends on how the people at the bottom live.

Zhao Xu asked himself that he had been in Shu country for so long, and he really didn't have any chance to visit the streets of Shu country except on the mountains.

Since ancient times, there have been very few wars in Shu, and it is relatively more stable than the Tang Kingdom in the south of the Yangtze River, so the economy is also good.

The reason why Zhao Kuangyin wanted to win the Kingdom of Shu was because of the wealth here, which can provide strong economic support for the Song Dynasty, which is beyond doubt.

How prosperous is the city of Chengdu in the Kingdom of Shu? Zhao Xu is going to experience it and see how well the people live here.

In his previous life, he had been to Sichuan and also to Chengdu, but the Chengdu city at that time was completely different from the current one.

It’s the same as not saying anything, after all, after a thousand years, everything else is completely changed except where Dujiangyan is. Today, I am lucky to be here; here, I will revisit my old place.

Although it's not accurate to say this, Zhao Xu couldn't find the right words for a while, so that's it anyway.
