The faint fragrance of tea wafts through the main hall.

Feng Deshui took a sip of the tea, he looked at Xiao Ming's expression, trying to discern Xiao Ming's reaction to this matter.

The matter of moving the capital was mentioned in Chang'an, and it was strongly opposed by Empress Zhao, the prince and others, and the officials who were bribed by King Zhao also moved out of the ancestral family law, and the feng shui taboo was constantly admonished.

It's just that everyone knows that this is just the selfishness of Empress Zhao and the crown prince, because once the capital is moved, King Zhao's influence on Xiao Wenxuan will be greatly reduced.

"So where does my father want to move the capital?" Feng Deshui came to mention this matter this time, naturally it was not a simple homely chat, but with a hint of temptation of Xiao Ming's attitude.

"Now the royal land, only Bianzhou is the most suitable, once moved to Bianzhou, the west is the king of Zhao, followed by the Tiger Pass, the north of the imperial city is the king of Yong, the southeast of the imperial city is the king of Wei, and the northeast is His Royal Highness, the three kings protect the capital, since the imperial city is safe." Feng Deshui smiled, seemingly satisfied with the location of the new capital.

This Bianzhou is the Kaifeng of the later generations, the Tokyo of the Song Dynasty in the later generations, Xiao Wenxuan chose this location of the new capital can be described as extremely shrewd.

Just like Feng Deshui said, once the capital is successfully moved, the imperial city can be backed by the three royal vassal kings, and he has enough confidence to say no to the vassal kings with different surnames.

"My father is thoughtful, this Bianzhou is a treasure of feng shui." Xiao Ming hesitated and said.

He is calm on the surface, but in fact, his heart has been turbulent, and in modern thinking, the imperial city is an economic circle.

Chang'an is rich, and the surrounding states and counties will also be driven to become rich, if the imperial city is really selected in Bianzhou, his goods will save a lot of transportation costs in the future.

After all, Chang'an is 800 kilometers away from Qingzhou, while Bianzhou is only 400 kilometers, and it only takes 100 kilometers from Bianzhou to reach Yunzhou, the westernmost part of his fiefdom, which is about the same distance as Qingzhou to Jinling City.

The distance between the imperial city and his fiefdom has been shortened by half, which means that his fiefdom status has suddenly become important.

And because of his own existence, he may be able to avoid chaos in the world because of the change of a certain feudal king with a different surname.

After all, now that the external troubles are not eliminated, he doesn't want to mess up the situation in Dayu first.

So on the whole, there is no harm in moving the capital to himself, on the contrary, he can also obtain the same geographical advantage of the imperial city as King Zhao.

"So His Royal Highness supports the emperor's move to the capital?" Feng Deshui smiled slightly, "Now Chang'an City has become a pot of porridge for this relocation of the capital, if this is the case, His Royal Highness will be remembered by the court, so as not to accuse His Highness of the ministers of the court for this matter." ”

Xiao Ming was stunned for a moment, he had never liked to pay attention to the affairs of the court, Feng Deshui said that he wanted to make his last letter clear that he supported the relocation of the capital.

He smiled, it turned out that he was no longer the dispensable King of Qi in the Great Chongqing Kingdom, and he also had his own weight in the court of the Great Chongqing Kingdom.

But think about it, he is now tantamount to a feudal official, and in the eyes of the hundred officials of Chang'an, he is also a pivotal figure.

After making trouble for a long time, Feng Deshui reported the good news at the same time, and also in order to win his own letter to support the relocation of the capital, Feng Deshui should be going to King Wei.

It's just that he thought too simply, and Feng Deshui's words below made him stunned.

"Since His Highness supports the relocation of the capital, His Highness may have to contribute to the construction of this imperial city." Feng Deshui looked like an old treacherous and cunning.

Xiao Ming's face turned white, this building the imperial city is not a joke, he said: "Feng Shilang, you don't know the situation of this king's fiefdom, and now you have the money to build the imperial city." ”

"Hahaha...... His Royal Highness misunderstood, the construction of the imperial city was naturally paid for by the imperial court, and His Royal Highness would only take advantage of it, how could he suffer a loss? "Feng Deshui looks like you know.

Xiao Ming was relieved, Feng Deshui meant that he could contract the construction of the imperial city, and this big construction project was a money-making business.

If he said so, this was indeed a good thing, he didn't care where Xiao Wenxuan built the imperial city, but it was a good thing that he could make money.

However, for Xiao Ming, he actually preferred the imperial city to be built in Youzhou rather than Bianzhou.

The Son of Heaven guards the country, the king dies, and he is more willing to see the advent of a glorious and prosperous era.

It's just that Youzhou is still in the hands of the barbarians, and it would be tantamount to a joke if you mentioned it.

After talking about moving the capital, Feng Deshui suddenly smiled and said: "Your Highness, when the old slave came, he saw that the city of Qingzhou was overhauling, and he also saw a lot of magical roads in the city, I don't know what this is?" ”

"This is a concrete road." Xiao Ming said, his eyes rolled, and he said to Feng Deshui: "What does Feng Shilang think of this kind of road?" ”

"Yes, it is similar to the stone road in Chang'an City, it is very hard, and rain and snow will not affect walking at all." Feng Deshui groaned, when he entered the city, he took a fancy to this kind of cement road and liked it very much.

Although the matter of moving the capital is far away, and this matter will be debated repeatedly in the court for a long time, it is better for him to show his construction ability in advance.

What he lacks now is the accumulation of primitive capital, and the construction of this imperial city is a big project to make money, and he has no reason not to compete.

If this relocation of the capital is completed, it is estimated that the following is a matter of the princes competing for the construction of the imperial city.

"Feng Shilang just saw the surface." Xiao Ming said with a smile: "It's still early in the morning, why don't Feng Shilang follow this king to see really interesting things." ”

"Really?" Feng Deshui showed a strong interest.

After that, the two immediately left the palace and went to the streets of Qingzhou, and now the road paving in Qingzhou City has been completed one-fifth, and the underground pipes have also been laid in many places.

Xiao Ming led Feng Deshui not to other places, but to the Wei family restaurant.

"Your Highness, are you going to invite the old slave to eat and drink?" When he arrived at the place, Feng Deshui said with a smile.

"Fei Ye, Fei Ye, Feng Shilang, please look here." Xiao Ming pointed to a trench in which cement pipes were buried.

"What is this?" Feng Deshui was puzzled.

"This is a cement pipe, from the Wei family restaurant to access the main pipe in front of the door, the future of the restaurant guests can directly go to the toilet in the restaurant, and even if it rains in the city in the future, there will be no water accumulation." Xiao Ming explained.

Feng Deshui was a little confused, "Isn't this toilet all in the restaurant?" All you need is a dung bucket, isn't it superfluous for Your Highness? ”

"Feng Shilang, the difference is here, after having this pipe, there is no need for a dung bucket, and the guests who enter the restaurant will live more comfortably, you see this ceramic pipe leading from upstairs to downstairs, and there will be a flushing toilet in the room of each restaurant."
