1057 Sake Pond Meat Forest
The newly built palace can indeed be called magnificent.
When Zong Shou arrived here under the guard of tens of thousands of knights, he was also slightly shocked.
Compared with the smoky palace, it is like a sky and a sky.
Even though the former has been repaired many times, it was built when Zong Wei was in trouble, and he was born with a kind of small family spirit.
As for the palace in front of me, I don't know who built it, it is surrounded by mountains and rivers. It is not blindly pursuing the gorgeous and magnificent. Instead, it is ingeniously combined with the terrain and primitive woodland here. The pavilions, terraces and pavilions are all exquisite and unique.
Although it is magnificent, it is also beautiful, fresh and natural, and it looks like a fairyland. The whole blends into the landscape here without any sense of abruptness.
Not only is the scenery superb, but it is also a holy place for practice.
Even Junyao Immortal Palace, which Zong Shou had always loved extremely, was compared to it.
Living here every day, looking at this naturally formed garden scenery, strange mountains and rocks, clear springs and lakes, will definitely be refreshing.
Zong Shou's extremely unhappy mood also slightly improved.
"I don't know how much this palace cost? Is it really from the military?"
He thought that if the funds were really allocated from military expenses, then this time, he would really earn money.
Hu Zhongyuan, who came with him next to him, looked over with the eyes of an idiot.
"How could it be all from the military funds? It's just a temporary loan. The inspector has already written to the cabinet, saying that it will allocate funds from the internal treasury, and the Prime Minister has already approved it!"
Zong Shou's face twitched, and he thought that this is the case, the palace in front of him still needs to be paid for by his own family.
At this time, 20% of the annual income of the big bosses in the cloud world belongs to the internal treasury. In addition to the investment in the Qingyun Stone Road, as well as the mining and medicine gardens everywhere, it can also earn thousands of fairy stones every year.
However, the expenses are also high. After this battle, more royal families must be recruited. There are also more Yi Ling Demon Slayers and Yuanhai Demon Slayers to support.
His Zhou Shu is a bottomless pit that cannot be fed.
The palace in front of him is like cutting his flesh!
Originally, if only Ren Bo agreed, it would be useless. However, Kong Yao is his concubine—"Stop talking nonsense, how much did it cost?"
"This is to invite famous gardeners from the Central Plains, and a dozen fairyland monks, to arrange the protective spirit array of this palace. The materials used are also high-grade. There are a total of 400 low-grade fairy stones, all of which are not so luxurious. Enter the mind with delusion."
Four hundred low-grade immortals?
Zong Shou thought to himself, is that just the case? Forget it, it's nothing! I am rich and powerful, and I can afford it.
A Taiyi God Thunder Ship also costs two thousand low-grade immortal stones.
But Hu Zhongyuan still couldn't stop saying: "There are still 300,000 elites, all of whom are named as conscripts, but they are actually used to control and win over the tribes in southern Xinjiang. Their strengths are all at the peak of the third rank, and the fourth rank of martial arts masters are also There are more than 20,000 people. It is said that the emperor has exempted all corvee, even in southern Xinjiang. Therefore, the salary cannot be less, so the cost of one hundred and twenty low-grade immortal stones has been increased. If it were not for these many abilities With an investment of ten thousand catties, how can such a palace be built within a month?"
Zong Shou almost vomited blood, and his eyes dimmed. This Kong Yao really doesn't take money as money. Just eat inside and outside! Sooner or later, his family fortune will be wiped out by this woman.
The previous good mood is gone. The scenery in front of me is still beautiful and pleasing to the eye.
But in Zongshou, every plant and tree here contains his Zongshou's blood and tears!
Apart from lamenting and sighing, Zong Shou's eyes also flashed a bit of admiration.
Presumably at this time, Kong Yao had another 300,000 experienced elite soldiers to use.
The land in the southern border is fertile, but there are endless wars, and it is even more necessary to fight against the endless stream of ferocious beasts. Although it is a barren land, martial arts and spiritual arts are extremely developed.
Entrances are rare, and the strong ones produced every year are far superior to others. After countless battles, they can form an army as soon as they are called up, and there is no need for training.
The barbarians are simple and honest, and they are brave and commit suicide. As long as they win over with profit and call with righteousness, they will fight to the death. Kong Yao, she is really a good means - with a depressed expression, Zong Shou walked into the palace surrounded by the crowd. Then I saw that in the palace, there were indeed beautiful women like clouds. All of them were born beautiful, probably because they were born in the barbarians of southern Xinjiang, and they all had healthy complexion and full of vitality. Unlike the weak Qianqian like those royal court maids, she is a little sick.
Hu Zhongyuan was dazzled for a while, and his eyes were dripping and looking around, almost drooling.
Zong Shou also lost his mind for a moment, thinking that Kong Yao really dared to put so many beauties in front of him.
Humming in my heart, I thought, is this looking down on people? I really annoyed myself, so I went crazy and married ten or eight concubines in one go, making you and Yiru regret it.
He was upset, so he blamed Tiger Central Plains. On Hu Zhongyuan's shoulder, he patted heavily. A burst of true force pierced through, making Hu Zhongyuan's whole body creak. The bones of the whole body seemed to be falling apart.
"What are you looking at? In this palace, everything belongs to the solitary. You can't see it, and if you look at it again, your eyes will be gouged out!"
Hu Zhongyuan was so weak that his body was bitten by thousands of ants, and he collapsed to the ground.
Knowing that he was implicated by innocence again, he didn't care, and said with a smile on his face, "Your Majesty, this is not right! At this time, shouldn't you reward one or two beauties to win over loyal ministers and good generals?"
"Are you considered a good general? What kind of loyal minister?"
Zong Shou scoffed at it with disdain. Knowing that Hu Zhongyuan's face was thicker than a city wall, he flicked his sleeves casually and said, "Forget it, I don't bother to care about you! These women will be sent back in the future, and they have no right to dispose of them. You can ask whoever you like. .As long as you don’t force it, don’t coerce it, you can do whatever you want. If you can take it away, it’s your skill!”
He turned back and said, "It's the same if you wait!"
These words are aimed at the generals who followed behind him.
Everyone was overjoyed, their eyes glowed, and they looked at the passing maids like wolves.
Hu Zhongyuan was also inexplicably joyful, he was gearing up, preparing to show off the flirtatious methods of Mr. Hu in Qianyao City back then. But Zong Shou seemed to have remembered something, and smiled meaningfully: "That's right! I remember that when Concubine Yao chose you to fight with you the other day, you Hu Zhongyuan was reluctant to come? You said it was boring to be with lonely, but Stay under Concubine Yao's command, and have a good fight with that big merchant. After thinking about it, I decided to make it happen. As you wish, you can go back tomorrow and serve under Concubine Yao's tent."
Hu Zhongyuan's face was pale and he groaned. I thought to myself that my lord is too bad.
Chuxue was holding the Blood Moon Knife, and followed Zongshou on the other side. At this time, she also stroked her lips, giggling, Zongshou ignored this guy, stepped into the palace, and changed her mood again.
This palace has been built, even if it is demolished, the fairy stone will not be taken back. Instead of being annoyed, it is better to let go of your mind and enjoy it, so as not to lose money.
He was always extravagant, but recently he was poor due to frequent use of Zhou Shu, so he restrained himself a bit. In fact, I am very happy with this palace.
At this time, I knew that this was built with the wealth of my own internal treasury, but I felt at ease, and as I walked all the way, there was nowhere, not all beautiful ships.
The steps made of white jade are spotless. Those gravel roads may seem ordinary, but they are all paved with pigeon blood stones worth equivalent to seventh-grade spirit stones. They are not only low-key and gorgeous, but also have a different kind of beauty, and they are also one of the foundations of the formation.
When walking to the depths of the palace, Zong Shou was even more stunned.
"Could this be the wine pool meat forest?"
Countless top-quality immortal brews were all poured into a huge white jade pond. It has an amber luster, but the aroma of the wine is already intoxicating.
It's not as exaggerated as the meat forest, but the surrounding tables are full of gourmet delicacies, all delicious and delicious, making your mouth water.
The fragrance of the food and the wine are mixed together, which makes the index finger twitch. This is even more excessive than Jie Zhou back then!
I remember the ancient history records, when Jie and Zhou just hung pieces of cooked meat beside the wine pool.
How can it be as good as now, they are all top chefs, cooking with care?
Roulin's set is outdated.
"Unexpectedly, Xiao Yao'er has also fallen!"
Zong Shou was heartbroken, thinking that when Kong Yao saw him full of gold bricks, he still despised him.
He took a jade cup casually, and scooped a cup from the wine pool.
Tasting it carefully, one can only feel the sweet and mellow fragrance in the mouth, flowing into the throat like Jade Pond jade pulp.
Zong Shou was also in a daze for a moment: "Jiuxiang Linglu, is it from Shangguan Zhenru's handwriting?"
Zong Shou has already heard about this woman who makes Lei Dongruotao fall in love with her. I have also tasted a lot of the wine made by this woman, but unfortunately I have never been able to see it.
The generals behind him all stared blankly, not knowing why. On the other hand, a female official leaned over and said, "It's Jiuxiang Linglu. Concubine Yao bought fifty cylinders half a month ago."
Zong Shou laughed, Xiao Yaoer, is she worried that she will be lonely in this palace?
Accompanied by good wine, it's not bad.
"Since there is a forest of wine pools and meat, then this palace should be called the wine pool palace!"
It has long been noted that the palace has not yet been named.
"Wine Pond Palace?"
Hu Zhongyuan pinched his chin and thought seriously: "It's not bad! But I think it's better to call it the Golden Palace, the White Jade Palace, or the Roulin Palace, which is more luxurious. It's worthy of the emperor's faint temperament—"
Before he finished speaking, Zong Shou tapped him heavily with his fingers, and he didn't dare to speak again.
At this moment, Zong Shou saw a ray of spirit descending from the sky and landed in front of him.
It was a letter talisman, which Zong Shou held casually in his hand. Then he chuckled and said, "Our army won a big victory, beheading 320,000 people!"
Half a day ago, Kong Yao's army began to withdraw from the Emerald Gorge.
But when Da Shang pursued and the army passed through the sword mark. Hit halfway, break the strong with the strong. Almost killed the great general of Dashang on the battlefield. I had to retreat back to the north bank in embarrassment, watching the army retreat calmly.
