Is Youzhou poor?

Youzhou is poor, so what does he mean to Yingtian?

Is it considered Shangoogou?

The city walls that were four to five feet high, and the streets that were big enough to accommodate three carriages running parallel to each other.

The rows of well-proportioned bluestone houses.

There is also the developed drainage system, open channels and underground channels.

The level of luxury is even more like the imperial capital than his Yingtian!

Listening to Gao Youqian's words, Zhao Chongyuan's mouth twitched.

He just brought back three carriages of stuff from Youzhou and earned nearly two million taels of silver.

And in Youzhou, there is an entire Zhao's Trading Company.

Even the emperor Zhao Chongyuan is jealous of the money he has accumulated over the years!

But now that Gao Youqian came back from a trip, he actually said that Youzhou was poor?

This is simply off the mark.

If Zhao Dingqiong is poor.

Then wouldn’t he, the emperor Zhao Chongyuan, become a beggar?

The more he thought about this, the angrier Zhao Chongyuan became.

"His Majesty?"

Seeing that something was wrong with Zhao Chongyuan's face, Gao Youqian shouted subconsciously.

Zhao Chongyuan raised his head and looked at Gao Youqian with a half-smile and asked, "You said Youzhou is poor, but tell me where exactly Youzhou is poor?"

"ah?"

Upon hearing this, Gao Youqian was stunned, but he quickly replied: "Your Majesty, Youzhou is really poor. Don't you know that the city walls are all made of rammed earth?"

"Then have you ever seen a city wall made of rammed earth that is four to five feet high?"

Zhao Chongyuan asked, rolling his eyes.

"Forehead..."

For a moment, Gao Youqian was speechless.

It is not that there are no city walls made of rammed earth, but they have long been eliminated due to the slipperiness of the earth, let alone that they can be rammed to a height of four or five feet.

"But Your Majesty, I really saw a man starving to death in front of me."

After thinking for a long time, Gao Youqian still whispered.

"hehe..."

Zhao Chongyuan chuckled, "Is the person you are looking at an old man in his seventies or eighties, all skinny and skinny?"

"Forehead......."

Gao Youqian was speechless again.

It seems to be true.

At that time, he just watched the old man suddenly sit upright, and then he shouted a few times and then fell down straightly.

Look at the look on Gao Youqian's face.

Zhao Chongyuan's mouth also twitched.

Unexpectedly, he actually got it right.

Not surprisingly, that old man should be the one who shouted that he would give them a chest-breaking performance when they went to Youzhou.

"His Majesty..."

Gao Youqian wants to talk more.

Zhao Chongyuan waved his hand and said: "Okay, okay, stop talking, I already know it."

After saying that, he ordered: "Go down."

"yes."

Seeing that Zhao Chongyuan no longer wanted to talk to him, Gao Youqian quickly bowed and exited the hall.

What do you think, how confused you are.

Still a little depressed.

He is the third eunuch in charge of rituals.

How come you were deceived?

well!

Thinking of this, Gao Youqian sighed again.

The longest road traveled is the routine of His Royal Highness, King Yan.

After watching Gao Youqian leave, Zhao Chongyuan rolled his eyes, looked at Wang Lishi who was standing at the bottom of the steps, and laughed and cursed: "Old man, have you seen enough of today's jokes?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Lishi bowed and replied: "Your Majesty, what are you talking about? How dare I see your Majesty's joke?"

"snort."

Zhao Chongyuan snorted softly.

Then he sat up from the dragon bed, looked at Wang Lishi, and asked intentionally or unintentionally: "What kind of medicine is that boy Zhao Ding selling in the gourd? The other princes are all begging me to transfer them back to the capital. , and this boy Zhao Ding actually played tricks on me?

Did you make such a fuss?

Do you really don’t want to go back to Beijing that much? "

"Cough cough cough~~~~~~~"

Upon hearing this, Wang Lishi quickly coughed and gave Zhao Chongyuan a look.

The meaning is obvious.

Your Majesty, don’t you understand in your heart?

Where is Youzhou?

Where is Yingtian?

Is there any comparison between the two?

Seeing the look on Wang Lishi's face, Zhao Chongyuan was so angry that he picked up a pillow from the bed and smashed it. While smashing it, he laughed and cursed: "Hey, you old man, even you dare to laugh at me." Come on!"

Wang Lishi covered his mouth and chuckled.

Seeing the pillow being thrown over, he quickly dodged aside and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, actually I feel that your Majesty, you are not wrong about the person."

"Did I see the wrong person? You old man, must you have seen my joke? A prince dared to disobey my order, and he deliberately made such a mistake and deceived the people I sent there. You still said that I didn't Did you see the wrong person?"

Zhao Chongyuan blew his beard and stared in anger.

The more he spoke, the angrier he became.

Since ancient times, there has never been a vassal king who did not want to enter the capital.

Entering the capital means being one step closer to the imperial power, instead of just becoming a vassal king of a fiefdom and guarding that one-third of an acre of land.

Wang Lishi cleared his throat and said, "Your Majesty, I have something I don't know whether to say or not?"

"That's what you say, I'm not the kind of emperor who can't listen to what you say."

Zhao Chongyuan said impatiently.

"In that case, that's what I said."

Wang Lishi replied, "Your Majesty has also been to Youzhou. What do you think of Youzhou?"

"Ahem!"

Before Zhao Chongyuan could speak, Wang Lishi quickly added: "Of course we can't trick you on behalf of His Highness Prince Yan. Let's just talk about Youzhou's customs, customs, and the living conditions of the people. What do you think?"

"Of course that's great."

Zhao Chongyuan replied subconsciously.

He didn't say this randomly.

But this is the case.

This time I left the palace incognito and walked around the Daqian territory.

Among the many princes' fiefdoms, Youzhou under Zhao Ding's rule is indeed the best.

Whether it is the wealth of the local people or the spiritual outlook of the people, it is indeed the best.

Even Youzhou, which is known as the emperor's feet, is inferior.

"In that case, what else does Your Majesty want to ask for? Besides, although His Highness King Yan acted a little boldly, the people under his rule lived and worked in peace and contentment. Isn't this what Your Majesty wants?"

"hiss."

Zhao Chongyuan took a breath of cold air.

Then he squinted his eyes, looked at Wang Lishi, and said with a smile: "You old man, did you also accept money from that kid? Why did you say so many good things to this kid today? This is not like you."

Zhao Chongyuan shook his head and smiled as he spoke.

Wang Lishi: "..."

After a long while, Wang Lishi said with a helpless expression: "I would like to take money from His Highness King Yan, but your Majesty doesn't give me a chance."

"You old thing."

After hearing this, Zhao Chongyuan laughed and cursed again.

However, Wang Lishi said: "Actually, the reason why the old slave said a few words today is because of His Highness King Yan's attitude towards the people and the words that Gao Youqian brought to His Majesty, which made the old slave quite proud. Feelings.”

"What words?"

Zhao Chongyuan asked doubtfully.

He was so angry just now that he didn't pay attention to what Gao Youqian said.

Wang Lishi replied: "Water can carry a boat and also capsize it!"
