After the immortal disappeared

Of course, the danger from Qingyang has not dissipated. He Lingchuan is now the chief consultant of the Tianshui project, and King Yao still has to protect his golden brain.

After thanking him, He Lingchuan scratched his head: "But I just got Yongquan Villa, and there are not enough houses to accommodate 900 people."

This is not an excuse, but the truth.

"It doesn't matter. My brothers can live in the warehouse." Zhao Song certainly couldn't take the team away. "At worst, we also brought military tents here."

"Oh, let the palace guards live in the warehouse? How can I be embarrassed!" He Lingchuan said that, of course, he didn't feel embarrassed at all. Yongquan Villa is too big, and he has few people, so he really can't take care of it. Now that Zhao Song brought these 900 people, in fact, it greatly strengthened the villa's guards.

Dong Rui's temporary departure made He Lingchuan's methods no longer as flexible as before, and he had to spend his mind to guard against Qingyang.

At this time, the guards sent by King Yao were a timely rain.

Since there were enough people, He Lingchuan asked Zhao Song to allocate 200 guards to clean up the empty rooms so that several leaders could move in, and at the same time clean up the warehouse and settle the hundreds of people.

The villa was very large, and the team was busy for two days before settling down.

As for the food for the 900 people, He Lingchuan waved his hand and said generously: "I'll take care of it all."

On the first night of the guards' stay, He Lingchuan turned down two banquets in Tianshui City and ordered the chef to prepare a welcoming banquet for Zhao Song and several guard leaders to have a good meal.

Zhao Ban and him had come all the way from Jucheng to here, and they had some friendship. Now that He Daozhu was favored by the king, he did not act arrogantly, and gave him enough face in front of several leaders, so he drank more than a dozen glasses of fine wine and began to pat his chest and promise that if there was anything, just speak up!

From this day on, He Lingchuan would bring hundreds of guards with him when he went out, and he was surrounded by people.

It was the same in Tianshui City. A few people set out on the road, and hundreds of elites surrounded them.

Those centuries-old streets were narrow to begin with, and once He Lingchuan went there, the whole road was blocked!

Although they didn't shout "He Island Master is here, everyone should stay away", strangers were not allowed to get close to He Lingchuan within five feet.

Which princes and nobles could catch up with such momentum and pomp?

But he had to go to the palace, meet guests, and coordinate construction matters. Going in and out of the city was all official business. Who had the reason and courage to report him?

For a while, He Xiao's reputation was like a raging fire.

He dared to do this in the capital and nothing happened, which showed that all his actions were tacitly approved by the higher-ups.

He really deserves to be the number one celebrity in front of the king.

…

Since He Lingchuan joined as a "senator", all matters related to the expansion of the new city were like pressing the fast-forward button, and suddenly all of them were rolled out and accelerated.

Official notices were posted on the streets, making it clear that Tianshui City will soon be built eastward, and explaining the size of the area, the location of the border, etc., as well as the supporting public projects for the expansion of the new city.

There are also special people next to the notice to preach to illiterate civilians.

This is the first step of He Lingchuan's proposal, that is, to let the people of Tianshui City receive the clearest signal:

The eastward expansion of Tianshui City is already a foregone conclusion.

Don't believe it? If you don't believe it, go and see the official residence on the south bank of Youhu Lake and the royal palace that is being renovated.

The king and the dignitaries are all preparing to move into Youhu Lake, so what are ordinary people hesitating about?

Buying with the big guys will definitely not lose money!

And He Lingchuan's reputation in Tianshuisheng has also reached its peak. Although he is not the person in charge of the eastward expansion plan of the capital, everyone in the royal court knows that King Yao values ​​his opinions. He can say ten words from other ministers.

Otherwise, how could he have a thousand-man guard? In the history of Yaoguo, which foreign businessman can receive this honor?

Therefore, he had endless flattery and gifts.

He Lingchuan suddenly became upright and honest at this time, refusing to accept any bribes and only saying that he was an idle official.

Why would an idle official accept bribes?

Fan Shuang also smiled from ear to ear.

Following He Lingchuan, he was almost like enjoying the pomp of being surrounded by hundreds of people when he went in and out, and he was the focus of everyone's attention wherever he went.

And many officials couldn't reach He Lingchuan, so they hoped to pass on the message through Fan Shuang.

Asking for help requires attitude and etiquette.

Fan Shuang had never been so glorious in his life.

…

From now on, not only Youhu, but also the townships, towns and counties around Youhu have become large construction sites. Qingyang's journey between Youhu and Tianshui City was bumpy and bumpy, and two wheels were broken within three days.

She was rich and powerful, so she put two expensive sliding charms on the carriage, which saved her from the embarrassment of being forced to shake her head all the way.

In fact, Qingyang no longer wanted to live in Youhu Cottage. It was neither quiet nor convenient there.

But she couldn't move away, otherwise it would be like admitting defeat to King Yao in person.

As soon as she returned to Youhu Cottage from the palace, Yuan Xuan handed her a document: "Palace Master, this is the information on the eastward expansion of Tianshui City."

The expansion of Tianshui City has been debated in the court for seven or eight years, but it has suddenly accelerated in the past few days, with a new progress every day.

King Yao also made the decision with unprecedented briskness, never mentioning the empty treasury and lack of money for expansion.

Qingyang had many eyes and ears in the palace, and he immediately figured out the reason.

After going around in circles, he couldn't avoid the name "He Xiao".

She read the detailed information brought by Yuan Xuan very carefully and slowly, and almost pondered over the so-called "city expansion and construction" plan word by word.

When she put down the thick file, her face had changed color: "Awesome!"

"Palace Master?" Qingyang has always been calm and indifferent, and Yuan Xuan hasn't seen her look like this for a long time.

"When He Yang was alive, I told him that the trick of King Yao forcing his officials to submit letters of surrender by using Youhu Villa can only last for one or two months." Lightning in the west illuminated the night sky, and Qingyang walked to the window, "I didn't expect that He Xiao would have a new trick! If the plans in the plan can be implemented, King Yao's chess game can continue for another year or two!"

Yuan Xuan is a smart man, but he really didn't understand what Qingyang said.

After hesitating for a long time, he still asked: "Palace Master, this set of plans is the result of the discussion of all the ministers, and He Xiao seems to have only put forward a few sporadic opinions?"

In such a thick pile of information, He Xiao's suggestions did not account for many, and even his name only appeared two or three times.

Why did the Palace Master feel like he was facing a great enemy?

"There are dozens of officials who bought Youhu Jingshe. I thought that Lord Yao had no way to make them all rise to prominence. The court would soon be in chaos and difficult to operate."

If Lord Yao forcibly promoted dozens of officials at once, wouldn't the royal court be in chaos?

What? Promotion is not based on diligence, political achievements, talents and morals, but just standing in line and paying bribes to the monarch?

What will the entire court of Yao become? Does Lord Yao still have diligent and serious subordinates?
