Powerful Song Dynasty

Chapter 532 The New Beginning of the Song Dynasty 1
Speaking of this, Zhu Lian obviously gave Qin Hui and Fan Zongyin a step, and it would be redundant to talk about it.

Of course Qin Hui and Fan Zongyin understood, and besides, they were really shameless, so they bowed their thanks and quit immediately.

Zhu Lian returned to the warm pavilion, leaned on the soft couch, brought Wang Xiu's recent memorials, and read them carefully again.

In this battle, the situation between the north and the south changed quietly, the absolute weak position of the Song Dynasty changed a little, the strategic intention of the Jin army fell through, and it suffered heavy losses that had not been seen in more than ten years.

Many Maiden Zhengui chieftains began to face up to the Great Song Dynasty. The Southern Dynasty was dilapidated, but they were brave after knowing their shame. With the support of Wang Xiu and others, the morale of the people could not be humiliated. The strength of Jurchen was not enough to annex the entire Zhao and Song Dynasties.Today, we can only maintain military deterrence, strive for the greatest interests at the negotiating table, and wait for a favorable opportunity.

The hard-line forces were not reconciled. They strongly demanded that the army be prepared for war, and they proposed to concentrate their forces to attack Shaanxi, which attracted the attention of high-level officials.Although the Jin army was defeated, its strength was still there, and it was able to gather more than [-] people to march westward and completely defeat the Western army. Wouldn't it be better to let the Jurchen cavalry gallop in the east and west?

Fortunately for the Great Song Dynasty, Marshal Du Xieye suddenly fell ill. Wushu joined forces with several generals to maintain military deterrence against the Song Dynasty on the grounds that going south would do more harm than good. .

His suggestion is also very strategic. The remnants of the Khitan have always existed, making everyone in Khitan in the country uneasy. You must know that the Jurchen is a small tribe. Only the remnants of the Khitan royal family can stabilize the hearts of the Khitans. The Jurchen noble chiefs reached a consensus, and the strategy of destroying the Song Dynasty was postponed.

Wu Qimai re-delineated the administrative districts and set up government offices at road, prefecture, and county levels throughout the country based on the Song system, including Hebei East Road, Hebei West Road, Hebei North Road, River South East Road, Zhongdu Road, Beijing Road, and Xijing Road. , Linhuangfu Road, Shangjing Road, and Tokyo Road are ten transfer roads.The Daming Mansion was officially named Nanjing, and as the center of the war against the Song Dynasty, Wushu served as the left guard in Nanjing, and Marshal Youdujian was in charge of military affairs along the border.

That year, the main force of the Jin army was transferred to the west, and the encirclement and suppression of the Yelu Dashi Department began. More than [-] people from the Ministry of Speed ​​marched westward and began an expedition to Ketun City, Yelu Dashi's last stronghold in the border area of ​​the Kingdom of Jin.The Khitan people's excellent plan against the Khitan people, the Jurchen noble chieftains, Yeluyu saw that they really did their best.

Nianhan sits in Taiyuan and restrains Wushi to encircle and suppress the rebels entrenched in Taihang Mountain. Loushi serves as the commanding army of the East Road and closely monitors the movements of the Song army in Shaanxi and the west of Beijing, forming a corner with Wushu.

To the astonishment of the court and the people of the Song Dynasty, Wang Xiu entered the palace to face the saint on the same day he arrived, and he resolutely refused to accept the founding Duke of the county and the Duanming Palace scholar.

Zhu Lian ordered a banquet, accompanied by ministers of the two governments and three provinces, and gave him half an hour to see him.The next day, the imperial court summoned Wang Xiu to dismiss Shangshu Zuocheng and move to the Taizhong doctor. Quan, a scholar of Duanming Palace, received the decree from Hanlin Academy, Duke of Kaiguo County in Dingyuan County, and gave Qian Wanguan and Tian Baiqing.

Wang Xiu's actions shocked the government and the public. Scholars mostly praised him for his indifference to fame and wealth, and his style of an ancient gentleman.

On March [-]rd, West Lake in Hangzhou, the south wind is blowing, the wind is sunny, the willows are green and the embankment is full, and the scenery is pleasant.

One lake, one boat, one song, beautiful scenery, fine wine, beauties, the clear and beautiful Wu language, and the rare good weather, making people drunk even if they don’t drink.

"It's such a clear and beautiful voice. It's rare for the elder brother to be with you, Mister. You don't see many brothers. It took a lot of effort today to gather a few people to accompany the senior brother. You can't hold back!"

Li Changsheng, Liu Renfeng, Qin Min, and Shi Yong accompanied Zong Liang to eat and drink in the delicately carved cabin of the painting boat.

Zong Liang followed Wang Xiu, but he was also an official, and he always wore the hat of a prime minister. The vice-president is responsible for the decree, but he has no experience in a big county, which is his shortcoming.

Coincidentally, officials from the Liangzhe Road Maritime Safety Bureau of the Maritime Department and the Hangzhou Maritime Department colluded with the coastal navy to return to the school, and he was ordered to come to deal with the investigation.At that time, Liu Yu knew Hangzhou as a servant, and led Liangzhe Road to appease the ambassador. After paying a visit to Liu Yu, he went to Liu Renfeng to talk about the past.

At that time, Liu Renfeng was the Zhirenhe County, and he was considered a dignified official. It was a rich and rich county in Hangzhou. Of course, the eldest brother came here to show the friendship of the landlord, so he contacted a few colleagues in Hangzhou to accompany Zongliang on a banquet. west lake.

Zong Liang was happy, and after drinking a few more glasses of wine, he felt quite comfortable. Liu Renfeng persuaded him to drink, but smiled and waved his hands and said: "You can't drink enough. You, Brother Liu, took advantage of your own territory and brought a thug to rape me. Don't tell me I don't have any backup?" ?”

They had the same illness in their childhood, and today they live on different sides. Although there are some rifts due to different political opinions, it is all public affairs, and the personal relationship is still harmonious. They tease each other humorously, and everyone can't stop laughing.

Liu Renfeng curled her lips and said with a smile: "The younger brother is the landlord of Renhe County. Since the elder brother is here on business, he should call the brothers to take over the dust. Otherwise, how could they spare me. If I really go back to the line to report on my duties, will the Prime Minister Changshi hate me? It would be a big loss at that time, I'd better treat you to a good drink, it's a flattery to the Shangguan."

Li Changsheng chuckled and said, "Originally I should be the host, but who let me just get off the boat, Renhe is the territory of the third brother, saving a few pennies. Look, the salty smell hasn't gone yet, look at the younger brother For the sake of wandering around the world, the eldest brother should also eat a few more glasses."

Shi Yong's eyeballs rolled and shone with a cunning light, and he smiled ambiguously: "Lu Xingshou, who is second to none in Hangzhou, performed in person, how can I not drink."

Zong Liang laughed out loud, looking so relaxed!
At that time, it was already the sixth year of Dazhong Jianyan.

Wang Xiu played unexpectedly. His parents were martyred in Shangshui. Because of the difficulties of the country, they never performed filial piety, which has violated human relations.He preliminarily determined the world, the north and the south have made an alliance again, the captives are doing their best to conquer the remnants of Khitan, and they will not go south to invade for the time being, please return to your hometown for three years of mourning, you have done your filial piety.

This is a major event that absolutely shocked the government and the public. Many people saw the opportunity, and some even saw the disadvantages. Some echoed Wang Xiu's mourning, while others strongly opposed it and demanded that the court seize love. into his eyes.

Zhu Lian naturally understood Wang Xiu's intentions. She issued an imperial edict three times to seize love, but Wang Xiu refused to accept the offer.

Just when the stalemate was at stake, Cai Yi's memorial once again aroused discussions among the ruling and opposition parties. Some were elated, while others were panicked.
