Zhao Hao left Guangzhou City with dissatisfaction with his two sisters, but he was very helpless, after all, with them in his way, he couldn't do anything in Guangzhou City, but he was not discouraged, after all, he also knew that Guangzhou was the place where Zhao Yan's influence was strongest, and it was impossible for him to be involved so smoothly, so for him, the best way was to start from the periphery, and Yuezhou was a good gap.

Not long after leaving Guangzhou, Zhao Hao's fleet arrived in Qiongzhou, which used to be the place where Su Song served as the governor, and at the same time it was also the most important steel producing area of the Great Song Dynasty, as well as one of the important shipbuilding bases in the south.

"Your Highness, the governor here in Qiongzhou is named You Shixiong, and he is a student of the famous Zhang Zai, and Zhang Zai is Zhao Yan's confidant, so it is not easy for His Highness to meddle here in Qiongzhou!" On the deck, Xing Shu stroked his beard and said worriedly, he had already investigated the situation here in Qiongzhou in advance, because in his opinion, if he controlled Qiongzhou, it would have an extremely important impact on Zhao Hao's control of Nanyang.

"It doesn't matter, You Shixiong is just a student of Zhang Zai, he has no interaction with Zhao Yan, and even he was transferred to Qiongzhou as the governor after Zhao Yan left Guangzhou, so as long as this king is devoted to friendship, and then promises heavy profits, maybe he can impress him!" Zhao Hao said with some disapproval when he heard this, he didn't believe that Zhao Yan could control the officials in the entire south.

"I hope so." Xing Shu was still a little unconfident when he heard this.

While the two were talking, the port of Qiongzhou City appeared in their sight, and they saw that although Qiongzhou Port was not as prosperous as Guangzhou Port, it was also a busy scene of ships coming and going, which also made Zhao Hao even more happy. Because the busier Qiongzhou is, the greater the value here, if he can gain a firm foothold here, it will have a greater effect on his intervention in Nanyang in the future.

But before Zhao Hao could wake up from his dream, he suddenly saw several warships sailing out of Qiongzhou Port, coming towards their fleet. This made Zhao Hao and Xing Shu stunned, and they couldn't figure out what the situation was?

Soon those warships came to Zhao Hao and them, because these warships were tall and big, so Zhao Hao had to raise his head when he wanted to look at the other party, and he saw a person walking out of the other party's deck and laughing: "Is there His Royal Highness King Wei on the ship ahead?" ”

"Not bad! You...... Are you Hu Yanping? When Zhao Hao saw the people on the warship clearly, he couldn't help but speak in surprise, only to see that the general on the ship was tall and full of beard, but even so, he still recognized that the other party was Hu Yanping, who had befriended Zhao Yan in the capital.

"Hey, hey. Your Highness is really a good eye, I didn't expect that I haven't seen him for nearly ten years, and His Highness can still recognize the end of the world at a glance! Hu Yanping on the warship immediately smiled.

"Yes, I haven't seen him for nearly ten years, but I didn't expect that the original Brother Huyan would become General Huyan, which really made this king feel emotional!" Looking at Hu Yanping with armor in front of him, Zhao Hao couldn't help but say with some emotion, Hu Yanping had a problem with his brain at the beginning. Coupled with the decline of Jiangmen again, everyone thought that Hu Yanping could only be a waste person for a lifetime. But he didn't expect that the world was impermanent, who would have thought that Hu Yanping would not only be cured of his illness, but also become a general who supported the military power.

Seeing Zhao Hao's emotional appearance, Hu Yanping just smiled, and then said with a straight face: "His Royal Highness King Wei, the last general has been notified by the imperial court. I know that you are here to appease Yuezhou, but the situation in Yuezhou has become more and more serious in the past few days, so I also ask His Royal Highness King Wei to leave for Yuezhou immediately, so as not to delay state affairs! ”

"What? What do you mean? Hearing Hu Yanping's words, Zhao Hao was stunned at first. Then asked with a calm face, Hu Yanping's words made it clear that he didn't want him to stay in Qiongzhou, but it was not surprising to think about it, Hu Yanping was originally Zhao Yan's sworn friend, and it was normal to reject himself.

"Your Royal Highness King Wei, don't get me wrong, the situation in Yuezhou is really critical, the governor of Yuezhou has reported to the imperial court several times, worried that there will be a rebellion in Yuezhou, so if His Royal Highness King Wei can arrive in Yuezhou a moment earlier, he can solve the crisis there earlier, so please also ask His Royal Highness to take state affairs first!" At this moment, I saw a middle-aged man in an official uniform walking out behind Hu Yanping and spoke.

"Who are you?" Zhao Hao looked the middle-aged official up and down, and saw that the middle-aged official was tall and burly, standing there no worse than Hu Yanping, with big ears and a long beard, he looked more like a military general, but he was wearing the official uniform of a civilian official.

"Your Royal Highness, the next official is the governor of Qiongzhou, Qiongzhou and Yuezhou are only separated by a sea, if there is a rebellion there, it will have a significant impact on Qiongzhou, so please ask Your Highness to appease Yuezhou as soon as possible, and return the people of the two places to peace!" At this time, I saw You Shixiong saluting Zhao Hao.

"It turned out to be You Zhizhou, and this king has also admired the name for a long time!" Zhao Hao glared at You Shixiong fiercely at this time, he originally wanted to win over the other party, but now it seems that I am afraid that this You Shixiong, like his teacher Zhang Zai, is looking at Zhao Yan, otherwise he would not have come here with Hu Yanping.

"Your Highness, state affairs are important, please also ask Your Highness to rush to Yuezhou as soon as possible, the army of the last general is also stationed here, if the situation in Yuezhou cannot be appeased, only need a warrant from His Highness, and the last general will immediately send troops to Yuezhou to quell the rebellion!" At this time, Hu Yanping opened his mouth again and urged, in fact, there is nothing in Qiongzhou and Guangzhou that Zhao Hao can't see, but Zhao Yan deliberately wants Zhao Hao to run into walls everywhere, so he arranged the affairs of Guangzhou and Qiongzhou.

"Hmph, don't worry about General Huyan, as long as this king arrives in Yuezhou, he will naturally calm down the situation there!" Zhao Hao also understood Hu Yanping's intentions at this time, and snorted coldly at the moment, and returned to the cabin with a flick of his sleeves after speaking, so as not to stay embarrassed.

Xing Shu was also very annoyed at this time, but Hu Yanping and You Shixiong put one state affair on the left and one on the right, so he had no reason to refute it at all, after all, they were originally to appease the situation in Yuezhou this time, if they insisted on staying in Qiongzhou for two days and delayed the situation in Yuezhou, Hu Yanping and You Shixiong would definitely participate in their play, and Zhao Hao might be fine at that time, but he would be unlucky as a deputy envoy.

Thinking of the above, Xing Shu had to order the fleet to turn the bow of the ship and rush to Yuezhou, while Hu Yanping's warship escorted them for a while, but this was more like surveillance in Xing Shu's eyes, and when Zhao Hao in the cabin knew about it, he was even more angry and scolded Hu Yanping for being shameless, but unfortunately there was no way.

Qiongzhou and Yuezhou are only separated by a Beibu Gulf, so after leaving Qiongzhou, Zhao Hao's fleet soon arrived at the deep-water port, the largest port in Yuezhou, which was the first port ceded to the Great Song Dynasty in Jiaozhi, and later through the efforts of Princess Chen and his wife, it became the largest port on the Southeast Peninsula, although it is not as good as Guangzhou, but it is much more prosperous than Qiongzhou Port. Later, Cochin was destroyed, and most of the Thang Long Mansion was destroyed in the war, so Zhao Yan simply did not repair the Thang Long Mansion, and directly made the deep-water port the capital of Yuezhou, and the Yamen of Yuezhou Zhizhou was also located here.

Although Zhao Hao had heard the name of the deep-water port before, but in his opinion, a new port that had just been established for a short time, I am afraid that no matter how prosperous it is, it will be limited, but when he came to the deep-water port, he saw a busier scene than Qiongzhou Port, only to see a team of ships in and out of the port, the whole port is also larger than the scale of Qiongzhou Port, and the wharf in the distance is also full of people coming and going, and all kinds of goods are constantly being pumped on the wharf, all of which makes Zhao Hao feel extremely shocked.

"Your Highness, it seems that we are really coming to the right place, I didn't expect a little-known deep-water port to be so prosperous, if Your Highness can calm the chaos in Yuezhou, and then take advantage of the situation to control the deep-water port in your hands, it will definitely bring unimaginable help to Your Highness!" At this time, Xing Shu also looked at the deep-water port with some greed, he has always played the role of a strategist by Zhao Hao's side, and he naturally knows Zhao Hao's ambition better than anyone else, and even he often encourages Zhao Hao to seize the throne, and he dreams of making a contribution to the dragon, so as to trample the other ministers of the court under his feet in one fell swoop.

"What a deep-water port!" Zhao Hao couldn't help but admire at this time, but then he frowned and said, "Just a deep-water port is so excited, such a large area in the South Seas, I'm afraid I don't know how many prosperous ports there are, these are all under Zhao Yan's control, it seems that we have greatly underestimated Zhao Yan's strength before." ”

Hearing Zhao Hao's worry, Xing Shu also frowned, but he quickly stretched out and said: "Your Highness, no matter how much strength King Yue hid before, but he has left Nanyang, even if he still has some influence here, but after all, he can't come here to control the situation in person, but His Highness has already come here, this is His Highness's biggest advantage, as long as we find the right time, we will definitely be able to devour King Yue's strength little by little, and when His Highness completely controls Nanyang, It is the day when His Royal Highness can compete with King Yue in the court! ”

As soon as Xing Shu's words fell, Zhao Hao couldn't help but laugh proudly, he dreamed of a day when he could overwhelm Zhao Yan, after all, they are also princes, why is Zhao Yan more valued than him, whether it is his father Zhao Shu or his brother Zhao Xuan, they all trust Zhao Yan very much, and leave everything to him to do, but he turns a blind eye to him, and now he wants to prove it to others, he Zhao Hao will definitely not be worse than Zhao Yan, and even if he is on the throne, he can definitely become a generation of famous monarchs, and surpass Zhao Shu and Zhao Ji!
