The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 2217 Returning to Qiongzhou
Zhao Dongting was silent for a while, and then said: "You mean, in the long run, there will be no need for the emperor to exist, right?"

Ran Anguo only said: "Your Majesty, the heart of guarding against others...is indispensable! I implore the Emperor to be able to stay in the court forever in the future."

"Get up!"

Zhao Dongting patted Ran Anguo's shoulder with a smile, mixed Ran Anguo up again, and said, "I know what you mean, don't worry, I have plans in mind, so don't worry."

He knew Ran Anguo's concerns and agreed with them. It can even be said that he is the most aware of the consequences of imperial power falling apart.But he didn't grow up in the background of his family. The current situation can be said to be deliberately caused by him, and he also hopes to see it.

A sound country and society should be able to lack anyone.

If the Song Dynasty must have Zhao Dongting, how can it last forever?

Everyone's lifespan is limited, even extreme masters can't escape the cycle of life and death, what if Zhao Dongting's later king is a faint king or a tyrant?

Zhao Dongting, who had read too many historical records of the change of dynasties in his previous life, did not want to see the people of the Song Dynasty in ruins, nor did he want to see his descendants die because of the change of imperial power.

Imperial power is a monstrous wealth, but it is also a shackle.

When Zhao Dongting began to intentionally cultivate Zhong Jian and Li Zhaoen's ability to govern the country, he was already paving the way.It is even more so if Zhong Jian is the head of the ministers of the auxiliary country.

Ran Anguo obviously couldn't understand this, he just looked at Zhao Dongting with doubts and worries.But when Zhao Dongting said that, he couldn't say anything more.

Imperial power is always a sensitive thing, as a courtier he can't say much.

Later, during the voyage back to the Great Song Dynasty, Zhao Dongting, Kong Qiangu and others spent most of their time studying the ways of Western magic, and even the girls were quite interested.

Everyone unanimously praised the Western meditation technique, because it was not available in the Central Plains martial arts.Song Dynasty did not have a systematic way to practice the power of the soul.

The Western art of meditation has filled this gap.

During the practice, the days always seem to go by extraordinarily quickly, and before I know it, I have arrived in Qiongzhou of the Great Song Dynasty.

As Qiongzhou's appeasement envoy, Ran Anguo certainly wanted Zhao Dongting to see the people's livelihood and development of Qiongzhou. Before the warship arrived in Qiongzhou, he had already invited Zhao Dongting to live in Qiongzhou for a few days.

Zhao Dongting did not refuse.

Qiongzhou is adjacent to Leizhou, and it can also be said to be the place where he made his fortune.

He has indeed always been concerned about the development of coastal areas such as Leizhou and Qiongzhou.These places should be the first to get rich, more prosperous than those inland cities.

Because of their unique geographical conditions.

He also wanted to know what kind of results the imperial court had achieved in supporting the coastal regions over the years.

On the day when the naval warship docked at the port of Qiongzhou, all the officials of Qiongzhou, large and small, were waiting at the port under the leadership of Zhizhou He Wenyan.

Ran Anguo's handsome boat had just landed, and all the officials knelt down on the ground and shouted: "Your Majesty is welcome!"

He Wenyan is a veteran of the Song Dynasty.

In fact, according to his and Ran Anguo's qualifications and achievements, they have already been able to be promoted to higher positions.It's just that the two rejected the promotion.

Ran Anguo still has the position of the Chief of the Dikui Army, which is higher than that of Qiongzhou's comfort envoy. He feels that if he is promoted to a higher position, he will inevitably lack energy.

As for He Wenyan, it was purely because he developed feelings for Qiongzhou.

He came here when Qiongzhou was the poorest, and Qiongzhou was developed step by step by him.His feelings for Qiongzhou are just like Zhao Dongting's feelings for Da Song.

This is not a good thing, but Zhao Dongting agreed.After all, even if there are disadvantages of pulling the mountain top, people like He Wenyan are close to the age of retirement.

Moreover, Zhao Dongting believed in their sincerity, and he was able to refuse high-ranking officials and generous staff to live in Qiongzhou because of his feelings for Qiongzhou.

Bringing the girls, Kong Qiangu and others out of the cabin, Zhao Dongting waved He Wenyan and others up.

Then he floated down to He Wenyan's side, and said with a smile: "Master He has worked so hard for Qiongzhou, and his hair has grown gray, you still have to pay attention to your body..."

He Wenyan has some understanding of what He Wenyan did in Qiongzhou through the Ministry of Officials and the Military Intelligence Department.

Is a good officer.

When these words came out, He Wenyan almost burst into tears, and said excitedly: "I am deeply favored by the emperor, so I should be devastated by the emperor."

Many of them were promoted by Zhao Dongting and given important tasks.

This kind of kindness is like re-creation in this era.

Zhao Dongting patted He Wenyan's hand and said nothing.I just said in my heart that even if I only look at He Wenyan and others, I should build a century-old cornerstone for Da Song.

Afterwards, Zhao Dongting and his party followed He Wenyan and others to Qiongzhou City, the main residence of Qiongzhou.

Qiongzhou City is no longer what it used to be.Compared with more than three years ago, there is a big change.

Today's Qiongzhou has a prosperous economy, a lot of population growth, and Qiongzhou City has also expanded a lot.The city wall is also much higher than before.

It was useless for He Wenyan and others to hide the news that Zhao Dongting was going to enter Qiongzhou City, so when they arrived outside the city, it was a dark scene again.There are countless onlookers.

This scene made the saint look at Zhao Dongting one after another, her eyes full of surprise and curiosity.

After entering the city, Zhao Dongting suddenly realized that the New Year's atmosphere in Qiongzhou City had not yet passed.

The end of the year has just passed.

Calculating the time, it has been more than three years since he went to the West.
