What is it like to start as Tiandao?

"I wonder if you sirs know where my palace is?" Xiao Tingxuan asked.

These old men have lived here for so long and should be very familiar with it. There is no need for Xiao Tingxuan to send people to look for them. To avoid trouble, just ask the adults directly.

After hearing Xiao Tingxuan's words, all the adults looked at each other in shock. It was hard to believe that this sentence came from Xiao Tingxuan's mouth.

Xiao Tingxuan also noticed the expressions of the adults and asked in confusion: "What do you mean, adults?"

Xiao Tingxuan couldn't understand the expressions of the adults. Isn't there something wrong with him just asking where his mansion is?

That's not the right expression.

Seeing that Xiao Tingxuan really didn't understand, He Zhongjin shook his head and explained to Xiao Tingxuan himself:

"Your Highness, this is Sanhe, a place of exile. No prince in the past dynasties has had his fiefdom sealed here.

Therefore, where did His Highness get the mansion? If His Highness wants a mansion, he can only build it himself. "

These adults really want to tell Xiao Tingxuan that you are really overthinking. You have been demoted to Sanhe and you are still thinking about the prince's mansion. I'm afraid you are overthinking.

Don’t have a prince’s residence?

Hearing this, Xiao Tingxuan's face instantly turned dark. Regardless of whether there were outsiders present or not, he directly cursed: "The emperor has gone too far to bully others."

It's okay if the fiefdom is in Sanhe, or if the reward is ten thousand taels.

But your mother hasn’t prepared a mansion yet, and now you don’t even have a place to live.

I really thought that the ten thousand taels you gave was a lot. The ten thousand taels had been spent long ago on the road. Without the support of the Li family, they would have starved to death on the road.

When all the adults heard Xiao Tingxuan curse the emperor, they all involuntarily turned their heads to the side, as if to say that they had not heard what Xiao Tingxuan was saying just now.

Xiao Tingxuan scolded him. What does my father have to do with them? They wished Xiao Tingxuan would scold him more. It would be best if he scolded this dog emperor to death.

They are living here now all because of the Dog Emperor.

The Dog Emperor also wanted them to be grateful, but he was probably overthinking it.

After a while, when Xiao Tingxuan's mood returned to calm, He Jinzhong said again: "If His Highness Prince Su doesn't dislike it, you can stay in our residence first. When the construction of the palace is completed, it won't be too late for you to move there."

"good!"

Xiao Tingxuan agreed without hesitation.

"???"

Seeing that Xiao Tingxuan did not hesitate at all, all the adults were speechless for a while.

You are a prince and a prince after all, but you have no magnanimity at all. Even Xiao Tingxuan can appreciate their harsh and shabby place. It's really speechless.

The matter has come to this, the words have been spoken, and there is no way to take them back.

The adults brought Xiao Tingxuan to their residence.

There is just a large courtyard with several rooms. Some vegetables are grown in the courtyard and some chickens are raised.

As soon as he opened the door and walked in, Xiao Tingxuan smelled a foul smell, which made Xiao Tingxuan unable to accept it and made him want to vomit.

It’s hard to imagine that the adults who used to be so aloof now live like this, and I don’t know how they survived.

Seeing Xiao Tingxuan's move of wanting to vomit, all of you will know the reason at a glance.

He Zhongjin said to Xiao Tingxuan: "His Royal Highness Prince Su, how about we change the place?"

I think when they first came here, they were similar to Xiao Tingxuan, thinking that this was no place for people to live, and they wanted to die.

Then I thought about it, it's better to live than to die. Isn't this how ordinary people come to live?

Slowly, they got used to it.

Xiao Tingxuan asked: "Do you have other places to live?"

"That's not true, just this one."

"That's it."

Xiao Tingxuan was extremely speechless. He thought that all the adults had other places to live.

You don’t have any other place to live, and yet you want to change places. Are you talking about changing to heaven?

The environment is just about as good as it gets. At least you can get shelter from the wind and rain when it's windy or rainy. You're no longer stuck in a carriage, where you can't sleep well.

Xiao Tingxuan followed the adults into the room. After everyone sat down, Xiao Tingxuan took the lead and said:

"My lords, I brought these people to settle here. If they use the land here, will the local chieftains come to trouble me?"

Xiao Tingxuan has just arrived, and there are some things that he still needs to ask clearly.

Although the emperor granted Sanhe to him, in a legal sense, the entire Sanhe belonged to Xiao Tingxuan, and he could expropriate all the land here if he wanted.

In fact, before he lost his strength, Xiao Tingxuan was the mascot here. If he wanted to expropriate the land here, he had to look at other people's faces and became a beggar on his knees.

When Xiao Tingxuan asked this question, all the adults were suddenly shocked.

It wasn't for other reasons. They were surprised because they didn't expect Xiao Tingxuan to recognize the existence of the chieftain.

That's fine. Since Xiao Tingxuan knew about the existence of the chieftain, they didn't need to go to great lengths to explain to Xiao Tingxuan.

He Zhongjin said to Xiao Tingxuan: "Your Highness, please rest assured. Your Highness is just settling some people. The chieftains will save this face for Your Highness."

Although the chieftain here is very powerful, it is difficult for the court to reach out.

But after all, Sanhe was still under the jurisdiction of Dazhou, and these chieftains did not dare to go too far.

As long as Xiao Tingxuan does not go too far in Sanhe and does not encroach on the interests of the chieftains, Xiao Tingxuan wants to resettle some people. The chieftains will not argue with Xiao Tingxuan about this trivial matter.

Even, as long as Xiao Tingxuan lives in peace, the chieftains will give him some gifts during the holidays.

These adults have been able to live in Sanhe for so many years, and they usually receive gifts from the chieftains.

So the adults have a good grasp of these chieftains.

Xiao Tingxuan asked again: "What if I want to be stronger?"

He wanted to see what the chieftains' tolerance limit would be.

"What do you want to do, Your Highness?" He Zhongjin also asked back.

"What I can do depends on the abilities of the adults."

Xiao Tingxuan stared at everyone.

Xiao Tingxuan knew very well that even though they had been exiled here for so long and were so old, they still had evil intentions.

Once power comes, it is really hard for people to let it go.

When the adults heard what Xiao Tingxuan said, they knew that Xiao Tingxuan was grasping them, but they were not angry.

On the contrary, there was a fiery light in their eyes.

The fact that Xiao Tingxuan could ask this question showed that Xiao Tingxuan was just like them, and they were restless.

Even if they were sent to Sanhe, as long as they worked together, they could still fight back.

Besides, they were all important officials in the six ministries of the court. With their support, Xiao Tingxuan was not inferior to the princes in the court.

In fact, Xiao Tingxuan would have a greater advantage. When the time was right, Xiao Tingxuan could march all the way to Kyoto under the slogan of clearing the court of emperors.
