Zhao Kuangyin chuckled and said: "Your Majesty, you still praise him! He is useless in battle. He can't even manage his subordinates well, so he can only do some things to look after people."

"You can't say that in Yuen Long. When he was as old as him, he was still selling umbrellas. He is already an official at a young age. The key is that he is far inferior to him based on his own ability."

Xu Xian hurriedly said humbly: "Your Majesty, you are so complimentary. I am just a small-time official and dare not compare with your Majesty."

"It's quite modest. Young people still have a long way to go. It's a good thing to be modest." Chai Rong put up a pergola with his hands and looked at it. "We are about to enter the city. I will go to lead the way. This trip to Yuen Long has been hard, and it has been done in the past two days.

Just have a good rest, and I will reward you generously when His Majesty returns to Beijing."

Chai Rong said and rode to the front of the team. Seeing him walking away, Xu Xian said softly to Zhao Kuangyin: "I didn't expect that Guo Linggong is actually a gentle and gentle man."

Zhao Kuangyin laughed twice and said, "You really have no eyesight. To tell you the truth, Guo Lingping is usually good-tempered, but once he gets angry, he can bring down the roof."

Xu Xian said casually: "Really? I really didn't see it." But he said in his heart: "It would be strange if an emperor who was so prominent in troubled times had no temper."

"Guo Linggong seemed to be at odds with Li Chongjin and Zhang Yongde. He just said hello and didn't talk."

"Hehe... The main reason is that I don't get along with Li Chongjin. You also know who he is. In the early years, he was always with your majesty. Later, when your majesty joined the army, he was put down by your majesty. Naturally, he couldn't get along with your majesty.

."

"You haven't been with His Majesty for long, but you know a lot."

"Don't you see how Zhao got so many brothers for nothing!"

…

As he spoke, he had already entered Chanzhou City. Xu Xian instantly felt as if he had entered an ancient city attraction in later generations. It was not because of how magnificent Chanzhou City was, but because it was so clean!

As the Kyoto, Bianliang City is more prosperous than other prefectures and counties, but because there are more people, it is also dirtier. The waiters in the restaurants will throw the dirty water used to clean the tables on the street, and the guests of the inn will also wash their feet with water.

Even when it doesn't rain, there is often sewage flowing down the street from the water splashed from the windows.

It is not only people but also livestock who defecate everywhere, not to mention those who litter with domestic garbage. It is fine in winter, but once it comes to summer, flies and insects fly around in the streets and the smell is terrible, because the environment is too

If it is too dirty, diseases often occur in Bianliang City.

But this Chanzhou City is really different. Needless to say, the streets are clean and tidy, but even the beggars look whiter than those in Bianliang. This is too abnormal. Could it be that they were specially cleaned to welcome Guo Wei's arrival?

? Chai Rong is so similar to the leaders of later generations.

Zhao Kuangyin looked at Xu Xian who was looking around, and said with a smile: "Do you think Chanzhou is very clean?"

Seeing that Zhao Kuangyin seemed to be used to it, Xu Xian asked, "Is it always like this in Chanzhou?"

"Of course not. Chanzhou has always been very messy! After your father-in-law came to Chanzhou, he was cleaning up the bandits and scoundrels, and at the same time he was renovating the streets. Those who littered the streets were given three whips, and those who urinated and defecated were given five whips.

In addition, many huts were built on the streets and people were hired to clean them. I didn’t understand it at first, but later I discovered that there had never been any epidemics in the city. There were even more merchants and more shops were opened, so naturally there were more

Collected finance and taxes.”

The management concept of creating a good business environment will not be out of date for more than a thousand years. If Chai Rong comes up with something new, Xu Xian will suspect that he is a senior who has traveled through time.

"Guo Linggong was born as a merchant, so he understands what merchants want."

Zhao Kuangyin waved his hands and said: "That's not entirely true. Guo Linggong always likes to be tidy. Even if he sees that the dishes are not arranged neatly while eating, he will have to adjust them himself before using the chopsticks."

No wonder even the flags in the market looked like they were made from the same mold. It turned out to be mysophobia plus obsessive-compulsive disorder, so Chai Rong suddenly made Xu Xian feel more vivid.

Chai Rong has prepared a camp in the city for the troops of the Palace Front Division to temporarily station. Li Chongjin and Zhang Yongde will naturally accompany them closely. Shi Shouxin and Wang Shenqi will also take their elite troops to the Jiedu Envoy's Mansion to stand guard.

On the contrary, the red scarf fell down easily.

Zhao Kuangyin took Xu Xian, Li Jixun, and Han Chongyun to his residence, which was a small courtyard away from the Jiedushi Mansion.

Xu Xian asked strangely: "Aren't you the deputy commander of Huazhou? How can you live in Chanzhou City?"

Han Chongyun said: "The deputy commander of Huazhou is just a false position given by Guo Linggong because it was difficult for him to arrange for him."

"Exactly!" Zhao Kuangyin pushed open the door, "Jiedushi has no room for a small stay in his mansion, so he rented this yard. You can live here for the next two days. It will be more comfortable than in a tent."

As soon as I opened the door, I smelled a strong smell of smelly feet. It was a typical man's nest, with piles of large and small hemp shoes and riding boots, a row of empty wine jars in the corner, and a mess on the bed.

The red bellyband. The same as the emperor's spare tire, Zhao Kuangyin does not seem to have Chai Rong's mysophobia or obsessive-compulsive disorder. This environment is probably no more comfortable than a tent.

Li Jixun picked up the bellyband with a knife, "I didn't realize that Yuen Long is quite romantic."

Han Chongyun also laughed and joked, "Yuan Long has been away from home for a long time, so it is sometimes lonely and difficult at night."

"Don't accuse a good man unjustly. You still don't know who I am, Zhao Yuanlang, and I'm not the only one who lives here. Brothers often bring women here to spend the night. Don't talk nonsense any more and quickly go to the well to wash yourself.

It’s better to go out and have a drink.”

Han Chongyun picked up a wooden basin and said, "Eating wine is easy, but we have to find out who is hosting it first."

Li Jixun said: "When we get to Yuen Long's territory, Yuen Long is the host. This guy took the lead in breaking into Murong Yanchao's house. I'm afraid he stole a lot of good things."

"Hehe... I robbed a lot of good things, but I didn't keep a penny. I gave them all to my brothers." Zhao Kuangyin patted the shriveled money bag, "Anyway, I only have this money. If it's not enough, you can make up for it yourself!

"

Since the expedition, I haven't had a bath for more than a month. It's summer. Even if Xu Xian scrubs his body frequently, his whole body is already sour. After a happy bath, he puts on clean casual clothes and feels much more comfortable.

After that, the four of them went out together and found a place to eat and drink. Xu Xian thought that all the heroes in the army had a good capacity for drinking, but he didn't expect that he would not be able to drink sweet and low-alcohol wine after only seven or eight bowls.

Han Chongyun and Li Jixun were lying on the table with their eyes blank, while Zhao Kuangyin threw his money bag on the table, shouted vaguely "boy, check out" and started snoring.

The waiter smiled and said to Xu Xian, the only one who was sober: "With wine and food, the four military masters spent a total of 720 Wen."

Zhao Kuangyin's shriveled money bag was obviously not enough, so Xu Xian had no choice but to take a small ingot of silver from his arms and follow the waiter to the counter to check out. The shopkeeper cut off a dime of silver with big scissors and weighed it carefully with a small scale.

I found Xu Xian a handful of copper coins.

The bill was settled, but three big men asked him how to move it back. He was hesitating whether to ask the clerk to find a carriage. As soon as he turned around, he saw three people standing behind him blankly, "Zhixian, let's finish the bill."

Just go back."

After the three of them finished speaking, they walked out of the door one after another. Seeing that they were walking like a tiger and a tiger, they were not even drunk at all. When Han Chongyun passed by others, he even knocked them to the ground.

Xu Xian would be a fool if he didn't understand. He thought that this kind of thing would only happen in later generations. He didn't expect that "simple" ancients would do it, especially Zhao Kuangyin, the thick-browed and big-eyed emperor who seemed to be a loyal spare tire.

"What a fucking thing!" Xu Xian cursed and went out. He saw the man who was hit by Han Zhongyun just now was looking at the white porcelain fragments and tea leaves on the ground, and said with a mournful expression: "It's over now, he's going to be beaten."
