Chapter 87 The tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop
He did it as he said, and the next morning, he came out of the palace and returned to his own Prince Song's mansion, Zhao Yu immediately summoned everyone in the mansion.
The Song Palace will also be where Xiao Yiyi will live in the future. Empress Dowager Xiao and Emperor Tianzuo naturally cannot be stingy. Such maids, servants, chefs, guards and other staff were directly given a top-notch team. The total number was no less than 300 people, and gold, silver and other things were also rewarded countless times. So although Zhao Yu’s face is cleaner now, he is really not short of money.
Zhao Yu didn't say what he wanted to do. He first led a team to flatten the backyard garden, and then invited the palace construction master to design the palace drawings according to the size of the site. At the same time, he ordered the guards and servants to go out to collect ice and snow.
Because the materials are all ready-made, almost on the same day, the construction of the ice and snow palace in Zhao Yu's mansion began.
After Xiao Yiyi received the news, she was inexplicably surprised. She never expected that Zhao Yu would do it as soon as she said that she was just a playful age. After reporting to her aunt, she also rushed to join the construction team with a group of people.
There is nothing to hide when I go to Beijing, let alone something as big as collecting ice and snow.
People are cleaning out the ice and snow, but the freshly released His Royal Highness, King of Song, poured ice and snow at home. This is the biggest news in the New Year.
Soon, officials and people who received the news flocked to the public. Some of them inquire about the news and some who wanted to go in and take a look, but they were all blocked outside.
Joke! Can anyone who wants to enter the Song Palace?
There are many people and great power, not to mention that building a house with ice and snow does not require cumbersome procedures such as laying foundations. In two days, the prototype of a huge palace will appear.
Like the Central Plains, all the craftsmen of the Liao Kingdom were Han people, and the hard work and wisdom of the Han people were unquestionable. Zhao Yu made the first move, and Zhao Yu almost didn't have to worry about the rest.
While the Ice and Snow Palace was built, various forms of snow sculptures were also carved in other parts of the mansion.
Zhao Yu and Xiao Yiyi agreed that after the project is completed, the Empress Dowager and the Emperor will be invited to visit first.
As Zhao Yu said, Xiao Yiyi was a girl who had not grown up. How could she leave such a fun thing behind her? Later, she was more active than Zhao Yu. She was very busy every day and almost forgot about Zhao Yu.
As the protagonist, there are many people thinking about Zhao Yu, such as the prince-in-law Xiao Xian. Although Xiao Yiyi killed his brother, he was not stupid. He knew that if it weren't for Zhao Yu, Xiao Yiyi wouldn't have done it himself.
On the surface, Xiao Keyeda died because of offending the princess, but judging from the news feedback from Youzhou, Xiao Xian already understood that Zhao Yu was aimed at the Khitan nobles.
Xiao Xian is a very terrifying person. He knew that the queen mother favored Xiao Yiyi, so he could not punish Zhao Yu, but how could he not avenge such a big revenge? If he swallowed this tone, he would probably not have to hang out among the Khitan nobles in the future.
Zhao Yu was busy making snow sculptures, and Xiao Xian also began to plan how to deal with Zhao Yu.
There are also many Han officials in the Liao Kingdom, among which the highest official positions are Yu Zhongwen, Zuo Qigong and Zhang Lin. These three are all deputy ministers of the Liao Kingdom, equivalent to the position of prime minister in the Central Plains. However, because they are Han people, although the official positions of these three people are high, they have no real power, so their position is more like a senior consultant, and they ask about that kind when they look at it.
Xiao Xian and the three of them had a good relationship. After the New Year, they took advantage of the opportunity to visit New Year and invited all three of them to the mansion.
According to the Han people, these three shameless people are typical traitors, but the traitors are not ashamed of this, and they even dislike other Han people the most.
Zhao Yu's sudden appearance undoubtedly stimulated the sensitive nerves of the three people.
After three rounds of drinking, Xiao Xian felt that it was almost done, so he waved his hand and drove all his servants out.
"Several adults must have heard that my clan brother died in Youzhou. Not only that, even his family property was occupied. I..."
Xiao Xian is very talented in acting. Before he finished speaking, he even squeezed out the evil fish's tears.
"Don't do this for the prince consort. If you have anything to do, just say it."
A big man burst into tears when he said he could cry, and the three shameless guys couldn't help but feel a chill.
Yu Zhongwen's eyes rolled and said, "Actually, there is no need to worry about the prince-consort. This son offended all the Khitan nobles as soon as he came. Although the empress dowager is favored by him, he will decline when he is prosperous. When the resentment reaches a certain level, he is afraid that even the king of heaven will not be able to protect him."
"Brother Zhongwen is such a bad statement. Some things should not be too late. You can't wait indefinitely, right?"
Zuo Qigong's meaning is very obvious. The empress dowager's body is running on the stick and eating it tastes good. It is possible to live for decades. Then maybe who will rely on whom to die!
Yu Zhongwen didn't like being refuted and frowned and said, "What should Brother Yizuo mean?"
"It's very simple. Drive him out of Beijing and let the nobles and men of the local prefectures deal with him. By then, the empress dowager and His Majesty have nothing to do with it."
"Master Zuo's words are reasonable, but have you not noticed it? The playboy is making a snow sculpture. It seems that he doesn't plan to leave Beijing anymore. And after hearing the news from the palace, the Queen Mother doesn't seem to want him to leave either."
Xiao Xian’s wife is also a princess, so it’s not difficult to get some news from the palace.
I heard that the Empress Dowager did not intend to let Zhao Yu leave Jing, and Yu Zhongwen and Zuo Qigong did not say anything. They all knew that the emperor listened to the Empress Dowager's words the most. If the Empress Dowager really had this plan, he would be afraid that this matter would have been decided.
"Mr. Zhang, do you have any good ideas?"
Xiao Xian turned his head to Zhang Lin, who had never said anything, and he knew that although Zhang Lin didn't talk much, he was full of bad things.
"I'm wondering if we should send a big figure to express our desire to cultivate the two countries for their good intentions."
After hearing Zhang Lin's words, the others were stunned. In fact, everyone knew that if Aguda and others had not died suddenly, the Jurchen army would have probably come here, and some of them were even ready to surrender.
Although the situation has changed now, everyone knows that the Jurchens will come sooner or later. However, it may be a great blessing to take this opportunity to establish a good relationship with the Jurchens.
Yu Zhongwen first reacted and blurted out: "Mr. Zhang meant to let that boy serve as a sermon? How could it be?"
The two countries are still in a state of hostility. The Jurchens even think that their boss was killed by the Liao Kingdom. Now sending people to praise Agu is not the same as killing him?
It would be fine if other people were there. Zhao Yu was the future husband whom the queen mother loved her niece the most. Even if the queen mother agreed, Xiao Yiyi couldn't agree! Zhang Lin's idea was too whimsical!
In the puzzled eyes of everyone, Zhang Lin smiled sinisterly and said, "Of course we can't ask this matter. What if the Jurchens called the name and asked that kid to go?"
"Mr. Zhang's idea is good, but I am a great Liao Dynasty, so how could the Jurchens name a boy who is still young and stinky to be mourned?"
"Master Zuo didn't know anything. The lower official accidentally heard that the Jurchens found Aguda's death, which was probably caused by people in the Song Dynasty."
Having said that, there is no need to continue talking about it, because anyone can do the framing.
Xiao Xian's eyes finally lit up...
