Turning back to Suzhou from Hangzhou, Emperor Lu relaxed the string in his head. Political showmanship naturally doesn't take a brain, it's all a routine, but it exhausts people's spirits. The same routine is used again and again, how can Emperor Lu easily get nervous?

In this way, it wasn't until Hangzhou was over and he set off to return to Suzhou, and this time the southern tour had already embarked on the return journey, and he really had the heart to appreciate the scenery of the south of the Yangtze River!

For example, the gardens of Suzhou, the famous gardens of Suzhou in later generations, and in this era, the prosperity of Suzhou gardens is only comparable to Luoyang.

In the words of Wu Chinese inkers, here the Guo Guo is overflowing, the pavilions are facing each other, the flying bars are like rainbows, the chess cloth is compared, the suburbs are passes, and the urns are boiled. There are many crowns and characters, and it is the crown of the southeast.

The four famous gardens in later generations now exist in Canglang Pavilion. Emperor Lu stopped this time.

But in fact, Canglang Pavilion is not the most garden in Suzhou at this time, and the most famous is Zhu Meng's "same paradise". Its garden is ten miles big, the peony is widely planted in the inside, and there are countless rare trees and strange stones, as if you can climb the "Gen Yue" of the great artist. It was only destroyed by the war. After the Manichaeans seized Suzhou, the first thing they did was to dig up Zhu Mian's ancestral tomb and destroy all of them.

Emperor Lu actually didn't care about this, the place where he lived was good or bad, and whether the scenery was wonderful, was not very attractive to him now.

Because the great ideals and ambitions in his heart have not yet been realized, and his ideas have not yet been implemented, Nakang Mazi also started to build Changchun Garden on the basis of the former Ming Qinghua Garden after destroying the Ming and Zheng Dynasty.

Emperor Lu also wanted to completely exterminate the Southern Song Dynasty, Shu Song Dynasty, Northern Liao, Jurchen, as well as the remnants of Nanyue and the party, and this party was really in the mood to visit the great mountains and rivers of the motherland.

He relaxed a little in Suzhou, more because he didn't think of the non-spirit of this political show at the beginning of his southern tour.

Zhao Gou, Zhang Bangchang arrived in Jinling news was naturally also sent to the hands of Emperor Lu, he looked down on Zhao Gou this person, it is undeniable that this person has outstanding political talent, this person in the Southern Song Dynasty on the basis of the mess, after continuous efforts, to solve the peasant uprising, mutiny, wandering and many other thorny problems, that relieved the generals of the military power, stabilized the political situation, consolidated the imperial power, so as to ensure the continuation of the rule of the Song Dynasty, his actions can indeed be called the Southern Song Dynasty "Lord of Zhongxing". But this birdman insisted on making peace with Jin, and did not hesitate to pay tribute and kill Yue Fei's father and son, which made him unbearable in the eyes of Emperor Lu, Yue Fan.

But looking at the information sent by the Espionage Department and the news from Song Qing, Emperor Lu was endlessly curious!

What is the thing that makes a great artist able to send Zhao Gou, who is one year old and less than sixteen, to send him? And Zhao Ji's birdman also made a big gesture, saying that the minister Nagong sent his daughter, and his posture was a soft mess. Didn't he really think that after he did this, Emperor Lu would be able to allow Shu Song to exist?

"Strange, weird!"

Until he went from Suzhou to Jinling, Emperor Lu couldn't figure it out. Just as there is no second person who knows that he is a time-traveler, the great artist will definitely not tell the second person about his 'adventures'!

In Jinling City, Zhao Ding not only took Zhao Gou to see the appearance of Jinling City, but also took him and Zhang Bangchang to see a characteristic of Lu Qi's rule at close range - the township soldiers.

Compared with the old and new party disputes when Wang Anshi of the Zhao and Song dynasties changed the law, and the quarrel was inextricable, the policy under Lu Qi was obviously consistent from top to bottom.

Emperor Lu's earlier policies are still in force today, from Qilu to Hebei to Jiangnan in countless towns and villages.

It is only because of the high status of the warriors of the new dynasty, the rich military salary, and the more generous rewards for military exploits, so the martial arts in the world are prosperous.

And it is also because of the existence of the township soldiers that Haoqiang, a class that has lasted for thousands of years in the Central Plains, has been greatly curbed.

Because the township officials directly controlled the force to suppress them, which neither the Han and Tang dynasties nor the Zhao and Song dynasties had.

This is the power of 'good on the top'. Just like Emperor Zhao and Song Emperor Aiwenchen, it is no different.

What Zhao Gou and Zhang Bangchang saw was the west of Jinling City, looking for a township at random. You can see that there are hundreds of soldiers in the township there, and all of them are young men who are less than double ten. Most of them are over 15 years old, and there are also those under 15 years old, but only a minority.

Zhao Gou didn't have the eyesight, but he felt that these young and strong young men were all strong and martial, and they were already proficient in swords, guns, bows and arrows and preliminary military drills, and they were all strong soldiers in the army.

But Zhang Bangchang is an old man, he doesn't know martial arts, but he has seen a lot of soldiers. As far as these young people in front of them are concerned, their training is no less than that of the Chengdu Imperial Forbidden Army, and their spirit is even better.

Such a township soldier, if one is said to be deliberately done by Zhao Ding, then two or three places, let them point out the direction at will for a few days, wander around and visit, how can the township soldiers they see be what they made?

That can only prove that this is the true portrayal of Jinling City. And Jinling fell into the hands of Lu Qi, and it was only a year to live.

There was no need for Zhao Ding to lead them to see the recruit camp in the east of the city, Zhao Gou and Zhang Bangchang were already trembling, and they were resigned.

It's just that the worried Zhao Gou and Zhang Bangchang obviously can't represent the emotions of the entire Shu Song mission, the Zhao Song mission has a total of more than 200 people, and the servants and guards inside occupy a small 200 people, and there are only six real 'officials', counting the close attendants and the clerical attachés in the regiment, there are only thirty or twenty people in total. These people are the central figures of the mission, and the remaining 200 people are insignificant in the minds of Zhao Jiumei and Zhang Bangchang.

It is also because of this that they can be regarded as blessed in the past few days.

Let's talk about food, clothing, housing and transportation. In terms of food, Honglu Temple will naturally not treat them badly. The food provided to them here is of high quality, that is, the lowest rank of the servant guards, and the food is also guaranteed to be meaty, and the dishes are often changed, meat, poultry, fish, ...... Every day is different, and every day breakfast must also provide a boiled egg, which is fully guaranteed in terms of nutrition.

If such a standard is put in the Qi army, that is the treatment of the imperial front division's pro-army.

Lu Qian browsed a post in his previous life and agreed with Neili's point of view. The post said that people's impression of a place, the first element is the environment, and the second is reflected through the subtleties of "clothing, food, housing and transportation". One of the most basic is eating!

The current situation of the Shu Song mission is an excellent confirmation of this, even if these guards and servants from Sichuan and Shu subconsciously have dissatisfaction and hostility towards Lu Qi, but when it comes to the food provided here, it cannot be denied that it is very generous.

The salaries of the Zhao and Song dynasties were very high, and even the food and salaries of the soldiers were also rich. Because in addition to a few hundred dollars of money, there are also food, cloth and other categories, and on a comprehensive basis, the treatment is not inferior to that of the Manchu Eight Banners.

But that was Zhao Song earlier, and after entering Shu Song, Shu Song looked different. The soldiers can only ensure barely enough food and clothing, and their treatment is only a big cut compared with before.

Today's people, even if they have money at home, will never eat like this every day - not only do they have meat and fish, but they also have fresh melons and fruits for use after meals! If this level of life is placed in Shu Song, even if it is a county parent official, it will be able to enjoy it. They have been blessed these days.

Lu Qi didn't expect to be able to take out something useful from these people, and such treatment was normal in the eyes of Honglu Temple.

The envoys of Goryeo and Qingtang Qiang who came to the Central Plains to meet were treated like this, there is no reason to 'look the other way' to Shu Song, right?

In this way, it is only natural that such favor should be exchanged for the favor of some military servants.

I was very satisfied with the food, and in terms of accommodation, the Shu Song Dynasty delegation also fully experienced the feeling of transcending the times in the Jinling State Guest House - although Emperor Lu was not an encyclopedia, he also had requirements for life, and he didn't know how to invent and create some things, but he only needed to put forward specific requirements, and naturally there were subordinate organs of the Internal Affairs Office to 'invent and create' for him.

In this case, tap water + washbasins, toilets, showers, and even ceramic bathtubs have been invented one by one in a few years. Even sofas and sofa cushions were 'invented', but after Emperor Lu asked people to get them, he didn't like them.

Xu is different from ordinary people in his previous life, Emperor Lu is now sitting on the sofa, so he feels that his reaction speed in the face of a crisis will decrease slightly. The upholstery of the sofa is not as easy as solid wood furniture!

But a lot of women like it.

However, tap water + basins, toilets and showers are generally popular, and ceramic bathtubs are also neglected.

As the face of the empire, the guest houses in various places are naturally equipped with the highest standard, of course, there are standard facilities for toilets, but the structural layout of the houses is still a traditional model, which is completely different from the modern architectural construction of later generations.

The original site of the State Guest House in Jinling was an annex of Zhu Mian, which was not destroyed unlike the same paradise, because Fang La originally located this place as a palace. Yes, the layout here is excellent. The main hall, the flower hall, and the courtyard of the lodging are all connected to each other by corridors. Flowers and plants are planted on the open space, and the green shade is all over the place, and the strange stones are lined up, which is very pleasant.

For example, the peony medicine institute where Zhao Gou lives, the courtyard is not more than acres, but there are mountains and rivers, and there are stone tables and wooden chairs between the mountains and rivers, which are specially used for people to enjoy the cool and chat. There are bananas and green bamboos on the side of the living pond, the water flow is meandering, the small bridge is leisurely, and the red carp koi can be vaguely seen swimming and playing under the trestle bridge, strolling in the meantime, which is very artistic conception.

Eat and live proudly, and clothes are more convenient.

It's not that the Espionage Department knows a lot about Sichuan and Shu, Zhao Gou has people around him, Lu Qi really doesn't have the idea of making up his mind from the mission, and in just a few days, he may be able to drag people into the water.

After learning the specific time when Emperor Lu returned to Jinling, Zhao Jiumei and Zhang Bangchang suddenly felt a sense of trembling. This is the god who kicked the Huanghuang Great Song Dynasty off the altar, and in just a few years, he brutally defeated the Zhao family's world.

It's just that their solemnity was exchanged for Emperor Lu's 'contempt'. Emperor Lu, who didn't even wear a crown dress and was only dressed in regular clothes, gave people a sense of disattention.

It's like a note between two heads of state in a modern day, where one of the heads of state wears a T-shirt and jeans instead of a suit.

Zhao Jiumei and Zhang Bangchang entered the palace with trepidation, trembling, for fear of making a mistake, when they followed Le He into the main hall, they didn't dare to look up, and only vaguely saw that there were many Lu Qi's civil and military officials in the hall, and they didn't see a figure wearing a dark plate collar and a big-sleeved robe sitting at the top.

Both of them are people who understand the rules, and when they meet the emperor, it is absolutely impossible to look at the Son of Heaven, otherwise, it is a great crime of disrespect.

If so, wait until the two of them shout, "Foreign minister so-and-so, knock to see Your Majesty, long live, long live, long live!" After that, Emperor Lu, who was sitting on the top, did not speak, but raised his hand slightly, and the attendant next to him said loudly: "Flat!" ”

The two of them raised their heads and were dumbfounded, Emperor Lu ......, he deceived people too much!
