The end of the world begins with the king

Chapter 166 Outside the Workshop

A cart of timber was transported away, and it was filled with another cart after a while, and Liu Jinghui was still in charge of guiding them into the city.

As the weather got hotter, Liu Jinghui walked around a few times, and was sweated by the sun on his head.

When Liu Jinghui approached, Zhang Zhiqi picked up the water bottle and handed it to him, then said: "Drink some water, be careful not to get heatstroke!"

Liu Jinghui was not too polite, he turned on the kettle and started drinking.

"Brother Liu, I heard that you are highly regarded by His Highness, why have you not been entrusted with an important task, but you have been assigned the current position?" Zhang Zhiqi asked.

The point of this sentence is not the reason in the question, but Zhang Zhiqi is testing whether Liu Jinghui is valued by Zhao Yanxun.

Quenching his thirst, Liu Jinghui replied: "If you don't accumulate steps, you can't cover a thousand miles. Your Highness asked me to take this assignment. I just need to do the job well!"

Hearing Liu Jinghui's words, Zhang Zhiqi had an idea in his mind. It seemed that Zhao Yanxun wanted to take a fancy to Liu Jinghui.

"That's right, let me tell you... Your Highness sent you this job, presumably to train you!"

"The ancients said that if the sky will send a great mission to the people, you must first work hard on your heart!"

"Hahaha, Brother Liu, the future is boundless!"

Liu Jinghui was a little confused when he heard this, why did Zhang Zhiqi become so kind all of a sudden.

The reason is actually very simple, Zhang Zhiqi belongs to the officials of the Longyou clan, and he is not very popular in the palace.

Since Liu Jinghui is valued by Zhao Yanxun, Zhang Zhiqi naturally wants to make friends, which may be useful in the future.

Even in the last days, officials like Zhang Zhiqi are always thinking about building a network of relationships to benefit themselves.

Liu Jinghui instinctively felt disgusted by Zhang Zhiqi's words, although the other party was a Jinshi with a higher reputation than him, but he was just a scholar.

"It's just a matter of being loyal to the emperor!" Liu Jinghui looked indifferent.

If it was before the end of the world, his behavior would have been judged as immoral, but now Zhang Zhiqi can only laugh along with him.

Speaking of the other end, Li Sanqiu and his party pushed the carriage, entered the city gate, and rushed to the north city.

I have to say that going to the city can bring people a sense of security.

But in fact, it was not so safe in the city, because they had not walked far into the city before they encountered patrolling soldiers.

Unlike the soldiers on the city wall, these soldiers patrolling the city were even issued bamboo armor.

"Have you heard, there seem to be monsters in the city, and the guards of the palace are still searching everywhere!"

This matter could not be hidden at all, so the remaining two remained silent.

"I hope the palace can kill all the monsters in the city, otherwise life will be uneasy!" Another person said.

Unexpectedly, at this time, Li Sanqiu, who had been silent all this time, firmly said: "The palace will definitely kill all the monsters!"

The other two were slightly taken aback, then nodded and said: "That's right, the palace will definitely be able to kill all the monsters!"

The three of them transported the wood, and after trekking for half an hour, they finally arrived outside a workshop of Gongzheng Institute.

Unlike bamboo, these woods must be processed by specialized craftsmen, so they must be sent to the workshop.

Li Sanqiu has been to this place many times, but today they found something different.

In the past, there was always a lot of manure piled up outside this workshop, but today I didn't see any of it.

What is even more surprising is that apart from these wood wastes, there is not even some infusion on the ground, which was obviously cleaned up by someone.

Just as Li Sanqiu and his party passed by the gate of the workshop, they saw that the two officials in charge of the tour were already waiting outside.

Seeing Li Sanqiu and his party, the official whispered something to an official next to him, who hurried to Li Sanqiu and his party.

After he approached, Dang even scolded: "Slowly move, go in through the bed sheet washing door, hurry up!"

Being reprimanded like this, Li Sanqiu and the others immediately quickened their pace and rushed to the west street at the fastest speed.

Seeing the workshop leader's official coming out to greet him in person, Li Sanqiu and the others could easily guess that the person who came was probably a big shot.

After they pushed the cart away, the long street became quiet again.

After a while, a group of soldiers rushed over, and they knew without looking that they were the elite of the palace.

These people's eyes are piercing, but what really catches the eye is their heroic demeanor and their indomitable demeanor.

It is easy to think that with such a warrior, the monster must be defeated.

After the royal guards arrived, martial law was imposed outside the workshop. A few officials and a large number of artisans stood at the door, some were full of expectations, while others were secretly apprehensive.

After a while, the sound of horseshoes sounded on the long street, and everyone outside the workshop became more respectful.

After a while, I saw a group of horse-riding guards in front, followed by a sedan chair carried by eight people.

There is no doubt that Zhao Yanxun is sitting in the sedan chair.

Now he is also aware of a problem, even if he has a system in his body, it is not easy to walk the path of a solo husband.

Therefore, he pays special attention to managing his own personality. In addition to promoting his sanctity, he also emphasizes his majesty.

There is both sacredness and majesty, which is called sacred and inviolable.

Behind his sedan chair, there were still officials on foot, except for Youchang Shiguan and Tai, the rest were mainly officials from the Gongzheng Institute.

Now in Yuanyang City, there are several workshops owned by Gongzheng, and this is just one of them.

In the end, Zhao Yanxun's team stopped outside the workshop, and the officials quickly came to his sedan chair.

"See Your Highness!"

In fact, although there were kneeling rituals in the Great Jin Dynasty, it was only on some important occasions.

But now in Prince Yong's Mansion, under Zhao Yanxun's subtle influence, there have been more rituals of kneeling and worshiping, but they are limited to worshiping him as the "lord".

In the final analysis, everything was to increase his own authority, and Zhao Yanxun spared no effort in this regard.

Outside the sedan chair, Huo Anti opened the curtain in front of the sedan chair, revealing Zhao Yanxun who was wearing a black gauze wing crown and a purple dragon robe inside.

"Let's all be free!" Zhao Yanxun got up and walked out.

From being unsuitable at the beginning, to now actively promoting kneeling and worshiping, Zhao Yanxun also has to feel that he has been coerced by this era.

Of course, instead of feeling pain, he was also very happy.

The officials and officials in charge of the workshop, as well as all the craftsmen, stood up and stepped aside at this moment.

"Gongzheng..."

Hearing Zhao Yanxun's name, Huang Zhongchang immediately stepped forward from behind.

"Please give orders, Your Highness!" Huang Zhongchang replied respectfully.

Zhao Yanxun held the leather belt around his waist, and then said with a smile: "This is where you are working, so you should lead the way!"

Hearing this, Huang Zhongchang said with a look of fear: "Your Highness, the Gongzheng Institute is also a member of the palace, and His Royal Highness Fu Wei can dominate!"

Zhao Yanxun felt that there was nothing wrong with Huang Zhongchang's words, but from the ears of the surrounding officials, he felt that Huang Zhongchang had no lower limit.

They have only heard that "Your Majesty Fu Wei can be domineering", Huang Zhongchang changed "Your Majesty" to "Your Highness", and this fellow directly compared Zhao Yanxun to the emperor.

That's right, Zhao Yanxun has proved that he is worthy of others, but everyone still feels a little uncomfortable to put him in the position of emperor.
