The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 1284 Arrived in Guangzhou
in the Song Dynasty.

Zhao Dongting led many officers and soldiers of the Imperial Army, Flying Dragon Army, and many retired officials from the imperial court along the way, not in a hurry.

But now it has been two months since they set off from Changsha, no matter how anxious they are, they have rushed to Guangzhou City.

Zhao Dongting seldom entered the city along the way before, mostly spending the night outside the city.Now when you arrive in Guangzhou, you will go out to the sea to Haojing Island when you go south. Of course, you will not stay outside the city.

He led the army and ministers to the west gate of Guangzhou City.

Feng Tingluan, the transfer envoy of Guangnan East Road in Guangzhou, and He Dongqiang, the appeasement envoy, and others have been waiting for a long time.

The army stopped.

Zhao Dongting's chariot was pulled by eight steeds with shiny black fur, and slowly arrived in front of the army.

Feng Tingluan, He Dongqiang and others all knelt down and shouted long live.

And behind them, there are countless people who came out of the city to meet them.

Regardless of whether these people came spontaneously or at the behest of Feng Tingluan and others, Zhao Dongting was somewhat moved by such a scene.

As an emperor, being supported and loved by the people will always give rise to a strong sense of satisfaction.

With his ability, he could completely be alone in the Southern Song Dynasty and lead all the women to live a fairy-like life, but for all the veterans, veterans, and countless people in the Song Dynasty, he finally chose to embark on this labor-intensive and Yuan Dynasty. The way other countries compete.Zhao Dongting's development of Song Dynasty to the present stage seems simple, but in fact it has put in countless painstaking efforts.

I don't know how many nights, he also had tossing and turning, and he was also worried.

And now it seems that these are all worth it.

Hearing the shouts from outside, Zhao Dongting stopped staying in the chariot, got up and walked out of the chariot, and said, "Let's get flat!"

His voice was not high-pitched, but because of his internal energy, it was still clearly heard by everyone in the official circle.

Feng Tingluan and other officials and the common people all stood up slowly.

Crowds of people.

Zhao Dongting said again: "You don't need to delay your family affairs to welcome me, please go back!"

The common people did not leave, looking around, they were all looking at Zhao Dongting with reverence and gratitude.The voice of the mountain shouting to the emperor continued.

Zhao Dongting had no choice but to nod slightly to Eunuch Liu who was waiting by the chariot.

Eunuch Liu understood and walked away.

But soon, Zhao Dongting's guard of honor, led by Feng Tingluan and others, moved forward slowly again.Go towards the city of Guangzhou.

The people on the road spontaneously gave way to both sides of the road and watched Zhao Dongting's guard of honor enter the city.

Zhao Dongting did not go back into the chariot, stood in front of the chariot, and waved frequently to the surrounding people.

But this kind of insignificant move made the voices of the people around him even louder.

It seemed that they were no different from loyal fans of Zhao Dongting.

In fact, there are indeed many people in the Song Dynasty who are loyal fans of Zhao Dongting.

He is unparalleled in both literary and martial arts, far surpassing the previous emperors, and he tried his best to turn the Song Dynasty from the tide.The prestige in the hearts of the people is immeasurable.

The common people all know who made them have enough food to eat and clothes to wear, and who made them live such a peaceful life.The gratitude to Zhao Dongting is equally deep.

They are a group of extremely easy to satisfy people.

What they want is nothing but food and clothing and peace.

Until Zhao Dongting's mighty guard of honor had all entered the city, the common people on both sides of the official road were still standing and watching.

And in the city, it is also a scene of crowds of people.

As the main residence of Guangnan East Road, Guangzhou City is also a coastal city, and its prosperity is almost comparable to that of the imperial city.

There are also more and more people gathered here, and it has the potential to develop into a city of hundreds of thousands of people.

Feng Tingluan and the others did not take the sedan chair, but walked to the city with Zhao Dongting's guard of honor.

Until the government office.

The soldiers in the guard of honor were taken away by the soldiers in the city to entertain them.

Nearly a hundred people including Zhao Dongting and Le Chan followed Feng Tingluan and others to the main hall of the government office.

Today's Great Song Dynasty is no longer the Great Song Dynasty of the past. In order to build the momentum of the government, the government offices in various places must be much more magnificent than before.

The main hall of the government office in Guangzhou City is enough to accommodate more than a hundred people.

Zhao Dongting took Yang Shu, Xie Daoqing, Le Chan, Le Wu and other women to sit on the top seats.

Further down are Feng Tingluan, He Dongqiang and other chief officials of Guangnan East Road, and then there are retired officials from the imperial court who came with Zhao Dongting, as well as the priests of Wuding Hall and the generals of the guard of honor.

Although Feng Tingluan and He Dongqiang are both in their fifties now, and they are still some years away from retirement, they are also relieved to see all the court officials in the hall.

The emperor's ability to bring these retired veterans out is enough to show that the emperor is a kind-hearted person, and he will not ignore these officials because of their retirement.

And these people will retire sooner or later.

It is said that people in the officialdom take tea to cool down, and even they were worried about whether they would be left in the cold after retirement.

And now it seems that obviously not.

As long as the emperor still remembers these veterans and remembers their contributions, then they don't have to worry about their old age.

Not long after, Feng Tingluan ordered a banquet to be held in the government office.

Zhao Dongting did not stop him either.

With the current national strength of the Song Dynasty, it is really not a luxury to hold such a banquet to entertain everyone.

He's not that fastidious.

In order to be a national model, he would cut down on food and clothing, and even let the concubines in the harem to sew and weave cloth, Zhao Dongting really couldn't do such a thing.

In the past dynasties, there were few precedents for such an emperor who really made a difference.

Before the banquet started, Zhao Dongting specially ordered He Dongqiang to announce the generals of the Guangzhou garrison.

He publicly praised Lu Yingcai, commander of the Guangzhou garrison, and even Jian Jingshan, head of the garrison's reconnaissance regiment, and many other generals.

They all made a lot of contributions in the Anti-Yuan War.

When the Song and Yuan dynasties fought in northern Xinjiang, if the garrison and forbidden troops from Guangzhou and other places hadn't traveled thousands of miles to support them, the great war would not have been so easy to win.

His praise made Lu Yingcai and the others quite excited, and some even blushed with excitement.

Zhao Dongting's prestige in the Great Song Army is so great that it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a god.

Even though he did not personally lead the army to go out for a long time, he was the one who created the Imperial Army of Song Dynasty.He is still the idol in the hearts of the soldiers and the soul of the Imperial Army of the Great Song Dynasty.

Afterwards, the banquet was full of joy and harmony.

These are not mentioned.

By the time the banquet was over, it was already quite late.

Zhao Dongting and others planned to rest in the government office.

Feng Tingluan arranged the room himself.

Only Zhao Dongting did not go to rest early, but had a discussion with Feng Tingluan, He Dongqiang and others in Feng Tingluan's study.

Talk about the people's livelihood of Guangnan East Road, and talk about the future development plan of Guangnan East Road.

Although he is far away in Changsha, he still has a good understanding of the situation on Guangnan East Road through the memorials of Feng Tingluan and others, and their annual report to Changsha.

In the current Guangnan East Road, the rich are rich and the poor are poor.

Zhao Dongting originally proposed that the coastal cities should get rich first to drive the rich later. Now that it has reached the preliminary stage, the next step is to let the rich drive the ordinary people.

After all, Zhao Dongting traveled from later generations, and Feng Tingluan's vision is far from comparable to that of Feng Tingluan and others. Whenever he opens his mouth to propose something, Feng Tingluan and others will always feel enlightened.

While they were pleasantly surprised, they were also deeply moved.

I really don't know how such a hero was born, and I don't know where the emperor learned this knowledge.

Many of Zhao Dongting's proposals and policies were unheard of in previous dynasties.

That night, until it was very dark, Zhao Dongting and the others dispersed.

Feng Tingluan and others were still unsatisfied until the end.

If Zhao Dongting hadn't worried that they were getting old and their bodies could not bear it, and had to let them go back to rest, they might have to discuss it with Zhao Dongting until dawn.

The city of Guangzhou at night is quite lively.

Although it is not a festive season, fireworks are set off everywhere in the city.By the time Zhao Dongting and the others dispersed, the fireworks hadn't stopped.

This is undoubtedly the common people expressing their joy for Zhao Dongting's presence.

It also made Zhao Dongting feel emotional again, and at the same time be alert to himself.

Now that the Yuan Dynasty is still alive, there are still many countries around the Great Song Dynasty.For nothing else, just for the people of the Song Dynasty, he must push the Song Dynasty to a higher height.
