"Yin Niang, when we entered the main hall before, we saw a dried corpse sitting on the dragon chair in the main hall, do you know who that person is?" On this day, Zhao Yan took the opportunity of Yinniang coming in to deliver food and inquired again.

"This ......" Yin Niang showed a hesitant look when she heard Zhao Yan's question, and finally shook her head lightly and said, "I...... I don't know. ”

Hearing Yin Niang's answer, Zhao Yan and Yan Yuru glanced at each other, judging from Yin Niang's appearance, she must know the origin of the dried corpse, but she didn't seem to dare to say it, so it can be seen that the dried corpse should have a very good background. In fact, judging from the appearance of the dry corpse wearing a dragon robe, Zhao Yan had already guessed, but he didn't know if his guess was correct.

"Hehe, the king of the county wants to know the identity of the corpse, just ask the old man directly, why ask a little girl?" At this moment, Xu Dezu's sharp voice suddenly came from outside the study, and then the door was pushed open, and Xu Dezu walked in with a steady step.

Seeing Xu Dezu come in, a trace of pain flashed on Yan Yuru's face, and she turned around and went behind the screen, as if she didn't want to see Xu Dezu now. Yin Niang saluted the other party with some trepidation, and Xu Dezu waved her hand to let her retreat.

"Hehe, this king still thinks that Xu Neishou forgot about me, Xu Neishou should have encountered a lot of trouble these days, right?" Zhao Yan said with a smile, after his disappearance, Zhao Shu will definitely go crazy, Xu Dezu has not seen anyone for a few days, and the only explanation is that his power should be hit hard, after all, Huang Wude must know that his disappearance is related to the mysterious organization.

"Hehe, it's just a little trouble, although Huang Wude has some talents, he has a limited understanding of the forces under my command, and this time he only caught a few irrelevant characters, and he couldn't ask anything at all. Therefore, the king of the county can live here with confidence. Xu Dezu smiled smugly at this time, although Huang Wude's crazy search brought him a lot of trouble, but he successfully kept the core secrets of the organization, so he had the upper hand in this game.

Seeing the other party's smug appearance, Zhao Yan couldn't help but sink in his heart, it seemed that the rescue he hoped for from the outside world was a little too slim. However, he was silent on the surface, but smiled again and changed the topic: "Just now, Xu Neishou said outside, let this king directly ask you about the dried corpse in the main hall, I wonder if Xu Neishou can tell him?" ”

"Since the king of the county wants to know, it is better to go to the main hall with the old slave, we can talk slowly!" Xu Dezu smiled proudly again, after making sure that the Great Song Dynasty could not find this place, he had already regarded Zhao Yan as his own plaything in the palm of his hand, and he wanted to slowly enjoy this feeling of playing with the prince of the Great Song Dynasty.

"Haha. Since Xu Nei was invited, this king couldn't ask for it, and it was really boring to be closed here for a few days, day and night. Zhao Yan also laughed deliberately at this time, as if he didn't have the slightest consciousness of being a prisoner, this was mainly because Zhao Yan knew Xu Dezu's current mood, if he was very weak at this time, he would not only lose his face. will also make Xu Dezu look down on himself.

Yan Yuru, who was behind the screen, heard that Zhao Yan was going to the main hall with Xu Dezu, and she was worried about Zhao Yan's safety. Immediately ran out from behind the screen and said, "I'm going with you too!" ”

"You stay here!" Yan Yuru, who Xu Dezu saw out, said very coldly, with an unquestionable tone in his voice, and turned around and left the study after speaking. Zhao Yan turned his head and showed a reassuring smile to Yan Yuru, and then followed, Yan Yuru also wanted to follow, but when he walked to the door, he was stopped by the guards. This made her only watch with a worried face as Zhao Yan's back disappeared into the gloomy corridor.

Zhao Yan followed Xu Dezu to the main hall, compared to when he passed by here a few days ago, the current hall has lit a lot of torches and candles, which looks brightly lit, which surprises Zhao Yan even more. He actually saw Sora standing in the middle of the main hall, and he hadn't seen him for many days, and Sora seemed to be much haggard, but it seemed that there should be nothing else.

When Zhao Yan came in, he also saw him, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly at the moment: "I didn't expect you to come too, the king of the county!" ”

"Haha, I heard that there was an accident in your Xiangji Temple, so naturally I couldn't stand idly by, but I ran around and ran here alone, and now we are brothers and sisters." Zhao Yan also laughed when he saw Sora, although he had guessed that Sora should be fine before, but it wasn't until he saw the other party with his own eyes that his heart finally let go.

Seeing that Zhao Yan could still laugh now, he couldn't help but admire him a little, but at this time, he saw Xu Dezu suddenly interrupt them, pointed to the dry corpse sitting there in a dragon robe on the main hall and said: "The king of the county wants to know the origin of this corpse in the main hall, so you can introduce it!" ”

Hearing that Kong also knew the origin of this dried corpse, Zhao Yan couldn't help but look at him curiously. But at this time, he only saw a little angry glance at Xu Dezu, and then Zhao Yan said helplessly: "This corpse is my grandfather, he wanted to restore the country at the beginning, but unfortunately there is no hope of recovering the country, so he built this palace underground, it is said that it is exactly the same as the vertical arch hall in the palace, when he was still alive, he often sat here wearing a dragon robe, and was also placed here after death." ”

As soon as the empty words fell, Xu Dezu suddenly laughed a little crazy, and it took a long time to stop and say to the air: "Aren't you a friend of the king of the county, why didn't you tell the truth to your friend, it's true that he is your grandfather, but he is also a madman, and he spent the master's manpower and material resources to build this hall, just to satisfy his little fantasy, and he also turned me into what I am now, so I put him here, so that he will not be at peace after death, Second, it also satisfies his dream of being an emperor! ”

When Xu Dezu said the above words, his face was also full of crazy looks, which made Zhao Yan feel a little chilly, in fact, he had already guessed before that the dry corpse in the hall was probably Xu Dezu's ancestor, but he didn't expect it to be his biological father, and secondly, Xu Dezu said that his father was a madman, but looking at his current appearance, he definitely didn't look like a normal person.

Looking at Xu Dezu's current appearance, a complicated look flashed on his face, as a son, he didn't know how he should face a father like Xu Dezu?

"Xu Neishi, as an outsider, I don't want to interfere too much in your family affairs, let's talk about the reason why you kidnapped this king, last time you left without finishing your words, which makes me still can't understand why you took such a big risk to kidnap me?" Zhao Yan asked again at this time, he knew that the relationship between Xu Dezu's family was very complicated, but the most important thing now was to find out the reason why the other party kidnapped him, so that he could come up with corresponding countermeasures.

Hearing Zhao Yan ask this question, Xu Dezu turned his head and looked at him seriously, that kind of gaze was like a hunter looking at an interested prey, which made Zhao Yan can't help but feel furious in his heart, and finally saw Xu Dezu speak: "Actually, the reason for kidnapping the county king is not complicated, the old slave just wants to use the talent of the county king to help me complete the great cause of restoring the country." ”

"Me? Help you complete the great cause of recovering the country? Zhao Yan heard the incredulous words on his face, and he even suspected that this should be the most ridiculous reason he had heard, not to mention whether he had the ability to help Xu Dezu, even if he did, but he was the prince of the Great Song Dynasty, how could he help an outsider to overthrow the Great Song Dynasty and play a role in restoring the country?

Xu Dezu didn't seem surprised by Zhao Yan's reaction, only to see him smile and say: "The county king may think this is ridiculous, but the old slave doesn't think so, you have met the fairy fate and know countless wonderful knowledge, such as those powerful weapons in the weapons prison, if the county king can design some more powerful weapons, and then I will use them to equip the army, then what army in the world can stop it?" ”

"You...... You don't think you can dominate the world with just a few powerful weapons, do you? Zhao Yan was shocked when he heard this, and asked rhetorically, although powerful weapons can bring some advantages in war, unless Zhao Yan can invent machine guns and a complete supply of ammunition, it is impossible to win the world only by relying on primitive gunpowder weapons.

"Hahaha~, of course, it's not just weapons, hasn't the county king been lecturing some time ago, among which astronomy, geography, physics, arithmetic and other disciplines will open a generation, I believe that if the county king can use this knowledge to cultivate a group of talents, then I will make use of these talents, plus the strength I have accumulated over the years, I will definitely be invincible, not to mention the Great Song Dynasty, even the Western Xia and Northern Liao are nothing!" Xu Dezu laughed again and said, this is the real reason why he took a great risk to kidnap Zhao Yan.

Zhao Yan couldn't help but show a solemn expression when he heard this, he never expected that the first person who saw the importance of spreading those knowledge by himself turned out to be Xu Dezu, and he was very forward-looking and wanted to let himself cultivate talents for him, and when these talents grew up, even if they could not reach Zhao Yan's level, they would definitely not be underestimated, they would have a huge impact on the current industry, agriculture, commerce, etc., and then Xu Dezu would use this power to really restore the country.

Think about the two industrial revolutions in history, which one did not cause great turmoil in the country and society, and it was the natural development of science and technology, now if Zhao Yan spreads all his knowledge, coupled with Xu Dezu's promotion, this is like a big explosion of science and technology, and the final result is unpredictable even by Zhao Yan himself.
