Yi Song

Chapter 296 Morning in Bianjing City
In the spring and March of the fifth year of Xuanhe, Bianjing was still intoxicating with the spring breeze, as if it were the most prosperous place in the world.

In some people's minds, it is still a stagnant pool of water, with just a new batch of noisy frogs and coiled flies.

The restaurant was full of guests, rich and poor, sitting in separate groups. The food they ate varied from cheap to expensive, but the things they talked about were roughly the same.

Shengjia Restaurant is more upscale than the Foot Shop, but not as good as Yuxian Restaurant, Pan Restaurant, and Fan Restaurant. It is one of the new batch of restaurants that imitated Meihuilai Hotel.

It was full of people early in the morning, all of them people who had a little money on the street but couldn't afford to go to Yuxian and other restaurants.

"The Khitan people are too much of a thing?"

"It's just that Yanyun Sixteen Provinces, who promised to return them to us, changed their minds!"

"If I had known about the thief, I would have called Liu Erlang and cooperated with the Zhenwu Department to kill them."

"In the final analysis, we fell into a trap! We fell into the Khitan people's delaying strategy!"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone in the audience was shocked. Many people looked over and asked curiously: "Yan Xiaojia, what do you mean by this?"

"Okay, okay, okay, I say. But I'm out of wine and my mouth is dry when I talk about it."

Yan Xiaojia chuckled: "The wine is delicious, let's save my life first. One place is the palace of the official family, and the other is Liu Erlang's foreign residence. I don't want to lose my head in a daze."

"Ah, Yan Xiaojia, how come these four families are mixed together?"

We, the Song Dynasty, all believed it and waited for the return of Yanyun Sixteen States. Not to mention, in the third year of Xuanhe, while Liu Erlang was quelling the rebellion in the southeast, the Privy Council asked Hedong to send troops to cooperate with the Khitan people to take Datong City in Yunzhou back from the hands of the Zhenwu Department. "

"Oh, I've heard about this too." A young brother stuck out his head and echoed, "The Khitan people said that since they have returned the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun, they should return it neatly together. They asked us to help return the Yun Yun Prefecture first. Once the state is captured, the Khitans will be returned to us together with the other states."

"That's right, that's right, the Khitan people were really desperate at that time. As a result, they never expected that something happened to the Zhenwu Department. The four ten thousand families who had gathered together in the northeast started fighting on their own.

"Yan Xiaojia, you have so many purses on your hands. Which lady are you going to have a secret meeting with tonight?"

Yan Xiaojia is twenty-three or four years old. He is dressed in a green robe and looks very handsome.

"Straight bitch, do the people in the Privy Council believe such lies to coax children? Is the person sitting inside that gentleman or a pig?"

Everyone laughed.

"Go to Baiyin Lane next door and sleep one night in the house of Captain Hu in Hexi Province. We will all respect you as a good man and raise money to treat you to a drink!"

"The Lord of the Khitan Kingdom recognized our officials as uncles and promised to return the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun in three years. At that time, they were forced into desperation by the Zhenwu Department, so naturally they dared to promise anything.

He picked up the wine glass and took a slow sip, but was not in a hurry to answer.

"Yan Xiaojia, if you have the ability, go to Money Alley and sleep under the flying general's curtain."

This is not over yet. The Nianba Ge Tribe and Xixia in the west, as well as the Uighurs and Black Khanate in the Western Regions, have united together to fight against the Zhenwu Tribe and our Song Dynasty in the east. "

There is a flower stuck in the left ear, and five or six purses are hanging on the belt, which is very cute!

"No, fortunately Liu Erlang came back from pacifying the southeast. He quickly stopped him and even quarreled with the moral gentlemen in the Privy Council. In the end, the Liao people couldn't wait for us and sent troops on their own. They were beaten to a pulp by the Zhenwu Department. This happened. It's over. Deng Xunwu was driven away, and Bai Shizhong, Cai Dalang and Liu Erlang took charge of the Privy Council. "

Others asked mockingly: "Yan Xiaojia, shouldn't he be sitting next to the lady in some house and listening to a few words?"

After laughing for a while, someone continued to ask: "Yan Xiaojia, what kind of delaying strategy is this? You are holding everyone up like this. Let's make a vow to curse you together, telling you to have a secret meeting with the young lady tonight and be caught by his husband. "

Yan Xiaojia held a pottery cup with a large mouth, blew on the foam on it, took a sip, and chewed two peanuts, which whetted everyone's appetite, and then spoke.

"You're a thief, Huo family, give him a glass of wine, just Liquan wine, don't make a mistake, just one glass will be enough."

"I heard that Brother Richard, the Jin King of the Xixia Kingdom, fled to the Western Regions. He joined forces to unite the four countries. Naturally, the Xixia Kingdom wanted to take a circuit from Mobei and take over the Hetao and Ningxia we recovered. Then grab it back later.

The Nianba Ge tribe wants to compete with the Zhenwu tribe for the dominance of the Mobei grassland. The Xizhou Uighurs and the Black Khanate were probably coveting the promised gold and silver and wanted to come east to grab it. The four thieves hit it off immediately. He organized an army of 200,000 and marched eastwards. "

"Two hundred thousand cavalry?"

"No!"

"A straight woman is a thief, there is no limit to that."

"Isn't that right? The Zhenwu Department had already captured the Khitan people in Shangjing and was preparing to attack Zhongjing and Liaodong. But something happened in the northeast and a big thing happened in the west, so they didn't care about it. They made a temporary peace with the Khitan people and moved their troops to the west.

Since the Liao people were no longer a threat, they naturally turned against them. The uncle stopped calling, and the promised sixteen states of Yanyun naturally did not count. "

Hearing this, everyone cursed.

"A straight mother-in-law is a Khitan dog thief!" "Words don't count! Give birth to a son without an asshole!"

Someone asked: "Didn't Duke Yan have a good relationship with Akdalai Khan of the Zhenwu Department? He came forward to help bring the Zhenwu Department back. Let us in the Song Dynasty join hands with them to defeat the Khitan dog thieves. Beat him to death!"

"Liu Erlang has gone to change the world." Yan Xiaojia took another sip of Liquan wine.

"Really? Can you bring the Zhenwu Department back?" someone asked quickly.

Yan Xiaojia turned over the large pottery cup in his hand, with the rim of the cup facing down, and a few drops of amber wine dripped down.

"What a thief, you Yan Xiaojia refuses to suffer any loss. Huo family, give him another glass of Liquan wine! Just one glass!"

said another diner.

Picking up a full glass of Liquan wine, Yan Xiaojia chuckled: "Thank you Ren Laoquan for your generosity."

"You're a thief, you've drank too much. Please hurry up."

"Liu Erlang and Dalai Khan of the Zhenwu Department are brothers in life and death. But no matter how good their friendship is, they can't stop someone from trying to undermine them."

"Yes Yes."

"Liu Erlang tried his best to win over Dalai Khan. In the spring of the fourth year of Xuanhe, he also obtained the order to send troops from Hetao, join the cavalry of the Zhenwu Department, and go west to attack Xixia, Nianba Ge, Xizhou Uighurs and Heihe Khan Allied Forces.

I heard that there was a great battle at the Zhabuhan River, where hundreds of thousands of people were killed, the sky was dark, the sun and the moon were dim, corpses were strewn across the fields and rivers of blood flowed."

"You Yan Xiaojia, where did you learn so many words used by literati? Do you want to take the imperial examination? Come on, tell me who won and who lost!"

"Haha, of course we and the Zhenwu Department won. I heard that one hundred thousand people were beheaded and ten temples were piled up on the bank of the Zhabuhan River. If we had lost, Liu Erlang would not have led the Come back with lots of loot.”

"Yeah yeah!"

The crowd burst into laughter and relaxed laughter.

"Speaking of trophies, have you heard of the Fang family treasure?"

"What the hell?"

"The great tycoon in western Zhejiang, Fang La, the number one rebel thief in the Song Dynasty. He occupied Suzhou and Hangzhou, killed countless aristocratic families, and robbed five hundred cars of gold, mountains, silver, and sea."

"real or fake?"

"What are you trying to do? It is said that he fled all the way south, and the Duke of Yan was chasing him. When he got to Fujian Road, the big food merchants in Quanzhou and Guangzhou were greedy for his wealth, so they sent a sea ship to pick him up in the Chaozhou area. Missing.

I have a relative who works as a clerk in the Privy Council. He said that Duke Yan was so angry that he wrote several memorials asking for permission to arrest all the big food and sea merchants in Quanzhou and Guangzhou and force them to hand over Fang thief.

In the end, only more than ten gold seals were handed over, and more than forty corpses were left for identification. Some said that there were Fang La, Shao and his wife, and their only son Fang Hao. Some say they are just their confidants. "

"These thieves must be seeking wealth and murder!"

After talking for a while, the food and wine were almost finished, they all got up and dispersed.

When I walked to the street, I saw a line of honor guards passing by, and there were people talking next to them.

"The princess of Jin went out of the city to give out food and clothing again!"

Yan Xiaojia stood in the crowd and saluted the cars in the queue with his hands in hand.

There were young people, old people, women, and children doing the salute. They were scattered everywhere, about a hundred people.

Some people came out of alleys and darkness, yawning, rubbing their eyes, and gathered together in twos and threes.

"Princess Jin has served dinner again, go and eat her motherfuck!"

"It's just plain porridge and green vegetables, and no fat or meat at all. How stingy!"

"I don't know how many cows to kill, and dozens of sheep to eat for us. The princess's mansion is full of gold and silver, and they don't give us any of it!"

These people cursed and walked out of the city.

At this time, the sun rose higher, illuminating the entire Bianjing city with mist and colorful colors.
