Great Song Pirate

Chapter 239 Tomb of Dry Bones (630th Monthly Pass Added)
After learning that Xu Yi didn't stay in Li Shishi's embroidery room, Zhao Xu and Li Mutian couldn't help but feel sorry for Xu Yi, but they both admired Xu Yi's nobility, but who knew that his head was in his hair What about a big bag?It's really a pimple in the hair, and no one will know if you don't tell it.

Li Mutian told Zhao Xu about the location of their shop in Bianliang. If Zhao Xu has something to do, don't send someone to Hangzhou. As long as you send someone to inform his shop, the news will be sent back to Hangzhou soon. Zhao Xu wrote down this matter, and Li Mutian resigned to deal with his family's business.

And Xu Yi was fine, so he stayed in Ji Wang's mansion, and when he was fine, he was dragged by Zhao Xu to talk about the current situation, or to listen to Xu Yi's interesting stories about the sea. It was much more profound, and even Zhao Xu's personal guards showed a lot of respect when they saw Xu Yi again.

But what I didn't expect was that Li Shishi found out from the old bustard that Xu Yi was originally a friend brought by King Ji Zhao Xu, so he sent the girl Xiaoyu to the palace to inquire about Xu Yi. After Zhao Xu learned about it, He repeatedly urged Xu Yi to go to meet Mr. Li again, but Xu Yi rejected him. In this way, after Mr. Li learned about it, he couldn't forget Xu Yi.

After coming to Bianliang, he needed to wait for Li Mutian to deal with the affairs here, so Xu Yi stayed here for a few days, and Zhao Xu accidentally said: "Although I am a prince, I seem to have unlimited scenery, but here Looking around in Jingzhong, there are really no close friends. If it wasn’t for you, brother Xu, who came to Bianliang, I’m afraid there are not many people who can talk to each other with confidence. It was better before. I can talk very well, but now... oh!"

Of course Xu Yi knew who the sister he was talking about was, and he almost couldn't help but recognize him as his brother-in-law, and told him that the one sitting in front of him was the husband of his princess sister, and that he even had his little niece. After thinking about it, I still resisted my impulse. It's better not to talk about this kind of thing, at least it's not the time now, don't look at this Zhao Xu who calls him brother and brother now, but once he hears that he abducted his sister, If he also made a daughter, maybe he would turn against him on the spot, and it would be strange if he didn't chop him up with a sword!Based on the basic principle that carefulness can make a ten-thousand-year ship, I warned myself that impulsiveness is the devil, but I finally held back this idea.

It is absolutely impossible to go to Bianliang without seeing Yue Gen. If it is Xu Yi himself, I am afraid that he will not be able to get there, and he will be arrested by the imperial army and tortured for interrogation. But after having this Zhao Xu, things will be much simpler , although Zhao Xu was not successful in Beijing, his status as a prince is still there. Besides, Yue Gen himself is also a royal garden built by Zhao Ji. Others are not allowed to go, and people who do not represent the royal family cannot go. Finally, Xu Yi finally met the legendary Yue Gen.

Yue Gen was built in the seventh year of Zhenghe, and it is now the fourth year of Xuanhe. It took seven years to complete the construction. The whole Yue Gen was built by Liang Shicheng. It can be said that it was built with all the strange stones in the world. Flowers and stones are used for this, and they are built in Jinglongmen.

Here, Leishi is the mountain, Shuquan is the lake, exotic flowers and trees compete for beauty, pavilions, terraces and pavilions are resplendent, and there are animal attractions such as Hezhuang Luzhai and folk scenery such as villages and wild stores.Zhao Xu told Xu Yi that this Yue Gen was Maoshan Taoist Liu Hunkang who said that Fengshui is good here, and if the terrain is higher, the royal family can have more children. Because it is located in the Gen side of the Taoist gossip, it was renamed Gen Yue.The surrounding area is more than ten miles wide, and the peak is ninety steps high. Due to the large number of flowers and stones collected, there are many strange rocks and strange trees in the world. Langyuan fairy flowers decorate the scenic spot in the world. It is really too beautiful to behold. Xu Yi is dazzled by seeing it, and his eyes are almost too busy. If only in terms of art, this Yue Gen is definitely a rare garden in Chinese history. If the work is left to future generations, it will surely become a great miracle in the world again. It is hard to count how many craftsmen's wisdom of the Song Dynasty has been incorporated into it.

But thinking about it the other way around, Xu Yi felt that it was not a good taste. Although the beauty here is true, it is a pity that it was done by one person with all the power in the world, and it was this Yue Gen and that Yanfu New Palace. The construction of the Song Dynasty caused great damage to the national power of the Song Dynasty, the treasury was almost emptied, and a bunch of corrupt officials were fattened. People all over the country were troubled by these bastards. However, in just ten years, not only did nothing substantial remain, but only an eternal infamy was left, a fool!This Zhao Ji is really an out-and-out fool!If Zhao Kuangyin knew that there would be such a descendant in later generations, he would have crawled out to chop up Zhao Ji and feed him to the dogs!

Zhao Xu also noticed that Xu Yi's face was getting more and more gloomy, so he looked around and asked Xu Yi: "Brother Xu, didn't you want to see this Yue Gen a long time ago? Now I'll bring you here, see After arriving here, why are you unhappy?"

Xu Yi looked at Yue Gen in front of him and said, "My lord, forgive me for speaking bluntly. I want to ask my lord, what is this place in your eyes?"

Zhao Xu looked suspiciously at the beautiful Yue Gen in front of him and said: "I don't quite understand what you mean, but this Yue Gen is nothing more than a rockery in my eyes, at most it is made with ingenuity, beautiful round It’s all just a little more beautiful, so what do you think this Yue Gen is?”

Xu Yi cupped his fists and bowed deeply to Zhao Xu: "I dare not say anything! If the lord wants to hear my opinion, please forgive me for being disrespectful first!"

As soon as Zhao Xu heard it, he knew that Xu Yi must have no good words to say, but he also wanted to hear his opinion, so he said: "You and I are already heart-to-heart friends. There is nothing to offend or not to offend. If you have something to say, just say it Let’s just say it straight, I’m not that stingy!”

Only then did Xu Yi say: "If you let me say it, this Yue Gen is actually just a pile of dead bones in my eyes!"

Zhao Xu frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"

"Does the lord know how much money His Majesty ordered to build this Yue Gen?" Xu Yi asked.

Zhao Xu summed it up and replied: "I don't know the exact figure, but as far as I know, it's probably no less than ten million taels of silver! The cost is really huge!"

"That's why I said it's just a pile of dead bones. You must know that the construction of Yue Gen and Yanfu New Palace cost a lot, and the number of people in the world who went bankrupt because of this place is more than thousands of households. , most of these people have become starved to death. If their bones are piled up, I am afraid that even the scale here will be difficult to match! The trickling spring here, in my opinion, is nowhere to be found. In fact, it is the Song Dynasty. The blood of the common people!" Xu Yi said sadly, he was being polite when he said that, but there was still one thing he didn't say in his heart, this Gen Yue was actually more like a tomb where the Song Dynasty was buried.

Zhao Xu fell silent completely. He knew what Xu Yi said was right, because when he was traveling, he often saw families that went bankrupt because of Hua Shigang, and even heard complaints from the people. What Xu Yi said was absolutely true. It's too much, I'm afraid the matter is more serious than what Xu Yi said, doesn't it mean that I, Flying Father, don't know at all?Up to now, those courtiers are still being asked to supervise the construction bureau and confiscate Huashi Gang. If this continues, is it really going to make the world of Song Dynasty into a mess that cannot be cured?His heart also sank along with Xu Yi.

The two walked out of Jinglong Gate silently, got into the car and returned to Prince Ji's mansion, and then sat down together with heavy hearts, but there was nothing they could do.

After this trip to Bianliang, he deeply felt how poor and luxurious Zhao Ji's old man is. He took his gang of courtiers and thieves to push the giant car of Song Dynasty, and continued to walk towards the cliff of destruction , no one can stop them.

And Xu Yi's words also made Zhao Xu feel deeply ashamed. He was deeply frustrated that he was not a child of an ordinary family. His father ravaged the world so much, but he didn't know it. Great!Could it be that the foundation left by the ancestor of the Great Song Dynasty just fell into his father's hands?He doesn't know what to do anymore, and writing a letter to remonstrate him is absolutely useless. If he jumps out now and says that the Song Dynasty is about to perish, he will probably be kicked out of the palace by his father on the spot, and the king will be imprisoned. , and would make his brothers a laughingstock, he dared not do this, and he couldn't do it.

Seeing Zhao Xu's gloomy look, Xu Yi couldn't explain anything to him, and finally he could only sigh and said: "My lord is concerned about the country and the people. In fact, it is my blessing to wait for the people of Song. Don't think too much about it. It's better According to what we discussed a few days ago, keep a low profile and save a lot of strength. One day, if something happens, I think the prince will be able to turn the tide for the Song Dynasty. At that time, I, Xu, will not be able to do so, and I will definitely give all my wealth to help the prince !"

Zhao Xu patted Xu Yi's arm without saying anything, but suddenly, the two of them drew closer again.

At this time in the Chongde Palace, Huizong, who had begun to put on weight slightly, was painting at his desk. For some reason, he suddenly remembered Zhao Xu, the seventh son whom he hadn't seen for a long time, so he stopped the pen in his hand, straightened up and asked the servant beside him. He said: "I haven't seen Lao Qi for a long time, what is he busy with now? Did he run out of the capital again and wander outside?"

The servant bowed and replied: "My servant has heard about King Ji. Since King Ji was reprimanded by His Majesty last time, he has lived a lot in peace. I haven't heard of him going out of Beijing again, but he doesn't talk to other princes very much. In their free time, they walked around the capital. Two days ago, I heard that he had two friends from other places. They seemed to be businessmen. He took one of them to Genyue for a visit, and there was nothing beyond that. thing!"

Huizong didn't care much about the news, snorted and said, "It's really not a medicine. I hang out with those street people every day, but this is also good, lest he keep thinking about running outside when he has nothing to do! Not doing business properly!"

The servant hurriedly bowed to greet him: "The Holy One is wise!..."

After hearing the servant's flattery, Huizong's mood improved again, he felt quite refreshed, stretched his waist and said, "It is said that Wang Fu is here to see me, I want to leave the palace in modest clothes!"

"Here!" The waiter hurriedly left the hall to make arrangements.
