The end of the world begins with the king

Chapter 52 Prince Yong's Mansion

(There are easter eggs at the end of the chapter, please pay attention to check!)
The palace motorcade was very long, and the guards were the first to arrive at the palace.

After they took over the defense, the frames of Zhao Yanxun and his party arrived slowly.

Although the palace is big, it can't accommodate thousands of people accompanying them, such as craftsmen, dancers, musicians, and their families, and there are resettlement areas around the palace.

If these areas are also counted as the palace, then the scale of the palace will be even larger.

Nearly one-fifth of the entire West City is the territory of the Wangfu.

Leaning out of the carriage, the first thing Zhao Yanxun saw when he looked up was the plaque of "Yongwangfu" on the forehead of the tall gate.

The huge gilt plaque looks extraordinarily magnificent.

In a time of peace and prosperity, being an idle prince would be a good choice... Zhao Yanxun thought to himself.

The first time you come to the palace, you have to enter through the main entrance.

After Huo An brought someone to move the small ladder, Zhao Yanxun stepped down.

After getting out of the carriage, I saw the three concubines also getting off the carriage, and they gathered beside Zhao Yanxun soon after getting off the carriage.

"Princess, let's go in!" Zhao Yanxun said with a smile.

"My lord, please..." Xue Baoyun also said with a smile.

Zhao Yanxun didn't refuse, and walked up the steps, and then walked through the gate today.

And behind him, Zhou Chengping and Guan Hetai also brought a group of officials into the room.

While walking forward, Zhou Chengping asked, "Master Guan, have you written all the letters?"

After Zhou Chengping and the imperial physicians repeatedly explained the matter of people turning into monsters, and saw it with their own eyes, Guan Hetai finally believed it in his heart.

So Zhou Chengping asked him to work together to spread the news to fellow villagers, Guan Hetai naturally agreed.

"Brother Zhou, don't worry, you've written everything you can think of, but I'm afraid they won't believe it!" Guan Hetai sighed.

Without seeing it with their own eyes, I'm afraid it's hard for anyone to believe that people can become monsters.

"Let's go, first settle down the official office, and go to see the prince later!" Zhou Chengping said in a deep voice.

As the various government offices entered the palace, next came the maids and eunuchs in the palace, as well as the cooks and servants who cooked.

Zhao Yanxun was very satisfied with this renovated palace.

If Yuanyang City does not fall after the zombie outbreak, he is willing to live in this palace forever.

Entering from the gate and going all the way in, Zhao Yanxun got a general understanding of the layout of the palace, which is the same as the imperial palace, where the front court and the back sleep are set up.

In the hall with the highest regulations in the palace, Zhao Yanxun is sitting at the head at the moment, and the three princesses are under Majesty Dan, looking at the situation in the hall.

"Yong'an Hall, the emperor Taizong back then really made no secret of his desire to usurp power!" Zhao Yanxun sat on the dragon chair, stroking the dragon head on the armrest with his hand.

After Taizong Yuji, the Qin Palace naturally rose and was directly renovated into a palace, so there are many dragon and phoenix carvings here.

Zhao Yanxun was able to get this palace, it has to be said that Emperor Tai'an really doted on Concubine Duan, and that's why he benefited Zhao Yanxun in this way.

"My lord, you can't talk nonsense about this, if someone else hears it...it will be another trouble!" Xue Baoyun was slightly worried.

"What the princess said is reasonable!" Zhao Yanxun put away his smile.

But at this moment, only Huang Rongrong said: "My lord, can my concubine come up and have a look?"

She was standing under Majesty Dan, looking curiously at Zhao Yanxun on the throne.

On the side, Xue Baoyun's eyes showed a cold light for an instant, but they were put away in an instant.

Zhao Yanxun was about to answer, but he heard a voice from outside: "My lord, the two elders are here to see you!"

"Let them in!"

After saying this, Zhao Yanxun looked at the concubines and said, "My dear concubines, there is a lake in the back garden of the palace, and there is a peach blossom island in the middle of the lake, do you want to go and see it first?"

The three concubines left wisely, and soon Zhou and Guan, led by the eunuch, came to the Yong'an Hall.

Looking at Zhao Yanxun on the throne, Zhou Chengping and Guan Hetai paid respects, which is the proper etiquette.

After Zhao Yanxun asked the two of them to get up, Zhou Chengping finally reported: "Your Highness, we two have a brief discussion, and the pilgrimage ceremony will be held on the first day of May, my lord, look..."

The pilgrimage ceremony is essential, but Zhao Yanxun didn't pay much attention to it, so he just nodded and agreed.

"You two lovers, you have seen all the officials in Yuanyang today, what is their attitude?" Zhao Yanxun asked in a deep voice.

After thinking for a while, Zhou Chengping replied, "Being kinder than Chen imagined!"

Zhao Yanxun smiled, Zhou Chengping really dared to say it this time, it was almost tantamount to saying that Zhao Yanxun's reputation was bad.

"The truth about monsters is hard to predict. What I mean by this king is to cooperate with the officials of Yuanyang Mansion to jointly prevent the outbreak of monsters..."

"Since they are kind, does that mean there is a chance for cooperation?"

Zhou Chengping nodded, but Guan Hetai said: "Your Highness, I'm afraid this matter is not that simple!"

Although he is not as upright as Zhou Chengping, but he looks at problems more sharply, this statement can be said to hit the nail on the head.

"Yeah... It's not easy to cooperate with them!" Zhao Yanxun sighed.

Although he has a system in his body, the power he can mobilize is extremely limited. Wang Ling is bullshit when he leaves the palace.

However, the officials in Yuanyang are different. As administrative yamen, they can mobilize huge amounts of manpower and material resources.

His past and present experiences tell him that when facing the problems of the century, the power of the individual is small, and the power of the government is powerful.

But Guan Hetai continued to say: "Your Highness, it is certainly difficult to do it overnight, we can start step by step!"

This was the first time Zhao Yanxun heard constructive opinions from Guan Hetai.

"tell me the story!"

Guan Hetai was also not modest, and said bluntly: "Your Highness, first of all, we must establish a relationship with the Longyou government, such as giving gifts or even money. Who doesn't love these things when an official is in charge!"

As soon as these words came out, Zhou Chengping was seen frowning, but he still didn't speak in the end.

"With a relationship like this, we can talk about some things, and then pull the monster in front of them and let them see it with their own eyes... I think they will believe that the monster exists!"

Zhao Yanxun looked at Zhou Chengping, saw that his expression was different, and immediately asked, "Zhou Changshi? What do you have to say?"

Zhou Chengping opened his mouth, but finally said: "Your Highness, I have nothing to say!"

Guan Hetai's method obviously violated Zhou Chengping's principles, so he felt uncomfortable when he heard it.

But now, preventing monsters from erupting is the top priority. Even though Zhou Chengping is dissatisfied with this method, he still knows which is more important.

"Well... not bad!" Zhao Yanxun nodded.

Then he said: "In the future, the palace will be our fortress against monsters, so I want to find someone to strengthen the gate on the basis of the current situation..."

"It's not just the palace, this king also wants to include the residences of the staff of the palace into the defense of the palace. What do you think?"

"But it's up to His Highness to decide!"

Neither of them had a problem with the idea, because it was a good idea.

"It's just that the palace has just been repaired, and if it starts construction suddenly, it will definitely attract people's attention, so this matter has to be carried out in secret!"

The palace has its own fixed regulations, and Zhao Yanxun's start of construction will inevitably destroy the regulations, which will easily cause dissatisfaction among local officials in Longyou.

He just said that he wants to get closer to him, so the start of construction should be as low-key as possible.

"Your Highness, the construction of the courtyard wall cannot avoid buying bricks, stones and wood. You must not be able to hide from other people's eyes!" Zhou Chengping said solemnly.

Although Zhao Yanxun was far away from the vortex in the capital city, there were countless eyes staring at him in Yuanyang, and he would be noticed by anyone if there was any disturbance.

"How about... let the palace catch fire and burn the two halls, and then buy bricks, stones and wood in the name of repairing the halls?" Zhao Yanxun proposed a bold idea.
