Chapter 105: The Emperor's Hometown

Zhang Zhao looked at Tao Ying, the carriage was a little bumpy on the stone-paved road, Zhang Zhao didn't understand Tao Ying's temper, so he stopped talking halfway through the words, and anyone with a discerning eye could know what Zhang Zhao meant.

Tao Ying looked at Zhang Zhao and nodded, "The old gentleman's words are very polite, but I have never wasted money and people. Most of the money for the construction of Pengcheng and other cities was robbed from the wealthy merchants of the Xiapi wealthy families to help the poor, and some were seized from Guangling Zhenrong, and many of them were Cao Cao's war indemnities, so Mr. was too worried. Moreover, this labor is also borne by tens of thousands of prisoners of war who have been captured, and of course there are also a lot of ordinary people. The family had one or two laborers, but I took care of the food and gave them land and food to pay off their debts. And I gave them grain, and they had it, and if they sowed it, it would be better day by day. ”

Zhang Zhao nodded, but said again: "Emperor Ling is extravagant, only the Han Dynasty is like today, and the prince built such a palace, I'm afraid it will be ......."

Zhang Zhao asked again, he felt that this was not good. The first is against the ancestral system, if this is known by the emperor, it will definitely be a matter of the nine clans. Forging the palace without permission, do you want to be the emperor?

What's more, if this continues, Tao Ying will become extravagant again, and Pengcheng will still be ruined!

Seeing that Zhang Zhao was very concerned about his hometown Pengcheng, Tao Ying was also busy and introduced: "Sir, this palace is built and I don't live there!" This palace is built to live in thousands of people like Mr. Wang, and when the time comes, the entire Han Dynasty can come to live here, and thousands of aspiring young people in the world can study here, isn't it a beautiful thing! ”

Tao Yingyi said that the palace was not lived by himself, and Zhang Zhao was relieved, but as soon as he said that the palace was for himself, Zhang Zhao's frightened soul was almost gone, he was loyal to the Han Dynasty, and who dared to live in the palace!

"It's not right, it's not right!"

Tao Ying pointed to the highest hall in the distance and said: "That hall is called Jixian Palace, there are more than ten floors, and the bottom hall alone can accommodate more than 2,000 people, which is better than Futu Temple!" ”

Tao Ying began to talk about his masterpiece with a smile on his face, but Zhang Zhao kept a worried face, but Zhang Cheng looked at all the changes in Pengcheng with a look of surprise, after all, he was still a child, and he didn't have so many worries.

"There are tens of thousands of mansions in Ande, and the poor people in the world are happy!" Tao Ying couldn't help but chant a poem.

"There are tens of thousands of mansions in Ande, and the poor people in the world are happy!" Zhang Zhao kept muttering this sentence, kept chattering, and suddenly a little tear in the corner of his eye slipped down wantonly.

Zhang Zhao was a man of letters, and he was opposed to force in his bones. He wants peace, he thinks that people who are well-educated all over the world have the opportunity to serve the Han Dynasty, but in this troubled world, let alone those poor people, how can a well-educated person like himself not be displaced? And Tao Ying's sentence of sheltering the world's poor people is happy, but it has already shown that his attitude towards cultural people is different from Tao Qian, there are too many differences!

"Okay, good, I just heard that the general fought in the south and the north, and he was invincible, but I didn't want the general to be so brilliant, just now I was too reckless, and the general atonemented!"

Although Zhang Cheng was small, but Tao Ying chanted this, Zhang Cheng couldn't help jumping off the horse and kneeling down to apologize to Tao Ying. Good? Tao Ying thought, this sentence must be well written, otherwise how can it be passed down through the ages? However, I didn't write it myself......

Although he was a little excited in his heart, Zhang Zhao's face was like water. After lowering the curtain, Zhang Zhao closed his eyes and recuperated. He was guessing what Tao Ying would do when he arrived at the main hall in the future, and how he would refuse to keep him from getting angry.

There were more and more streets ahead, many wide courtyards were already in sight, and the gravel road was getting better and better, and the carriage was getting more and more stable.

The road is good, Zhang Zhao knows, presumably the Jixian Hall built by Tao Ying should be about to arrive.

After a while, the carriage suddenly stopped, Zhang Zhao lifted the curtain and looked around, Tao Ying did not take him to Jixian Palace. In front of me is a river, not very wide, but very clean.

There was a road by the river, and it was lined with courtyards, which were simply pulled up by the walls and simple houses were built. The carriage stopped at the door of a relatively spacious house, and the two stone lions at the door were very powerful. The gate was also painted, and this house was originally intended for Tao Ying.

"Sir, this house will be lived in by him! The location here is good, and it is a stone's throw away from the Jixian Palace, please don't dislike it! ”

Tao Ying helped Zhang Zhao get out of the carriage, Zhang Zhao looked back behind him, and the road behind him led to the Jixian Hall in the center of the palace complex. On both sides of the wide road, there are many palace-like courtyards, which are dotted like a gossip array.

Zhang Cheng was a little ecstatic, but Zhang Zhao said with a smile: "I don't dare to live in such a noble place, so I don't bother my son!" ”

Seeing Zhang Zhao's resignation again, Tao Ying hurriedly persuaded again: "Sir, rest assured, all the mansions within a radius of more than ten miles are reserved for the great sages of the world." If you live here, you won't feel lonely in the future. Sir, look at the halls next to it, this is the school I am going to build, and it is a place to beckon people from all over the world to discuss articles. There is also the largest Jixian Hall in the distance, where the world's books are stored, and I will use the power of Xuzhou in the future to collect all the world's works in it! ”

Tao Ying said the majestic idea in his heart, and Zhang Cheng next to him had already clapped his hands. Zhang Zhao said unmoved: "Although the place is good, it is useless, please ......."

"Don't worry, sir, I have something to ask for, and I want to ask my husband to help me teach a child. This son is very smart, and when he grows up, he will definitely be the pillar of the country! ”

Zhang Zhao still wanted to refuse, but the family next to him looked at Zhang Zhao. There was some anticipation in their eyes, after all, no one wanted to live in a dark prison for the rest of their lives.

That's why Tao Ying didn't force him to come out to be an official, not because he wasn't invited, but because he wasn't forced. If Zhang Zhao refuses again at this time, I am afraid that Tao Ying will become angry, toast without eating and drinking, and directly kill his family.

So Zhang Zhao had no choice but to agree, and Tao Ying hurriedly asked people to move some furniture, oil and rice and other things to Zhang Zhao, and then instructed Yan Jian to send food to Zhang Zhao's mansion on time every month in the future. After Zhang Zhao thanked him, Tao Ying asked people to pick up the three-year-old Cao Zhi.

A group of soldiers rushed through the street to a house in the north of the city, which was also near the river, which was wider, and beside it was a street full of trees, and behind the street were small courtyards of houses.

It was built relatively early, the Gan family lived here, and even Tao Ying's new mansion was built here. The soldier walked around the corner and turned in, passing two small courtyards to a quiet courtyard. Cao Cao, who lived in the courtyard, exchanged hostages, and three or four slaves and maids were taking care of a little guy, and the little guy was running around unidlely.

There was also a seven or eight-year-old boy sitting at the stone table in the courtyard staring blankly at the sky, and a person next to him stood beside him with a tiger's back and waited, that person was none other than Cao Chun, who was arrested in Lanling.

Seeing a group of soldiers push open the door and walk into the courtyard, Cao Pi hurriedly hid behind Cao Chun.

The soldier came over and said to Cao Chun: "The minister of state has an order, take Cao Zhi away!" ”
