I preached in the Six Dynasties

Chapter 63
On the Bian River, countless merchant ships come and go.

One of them is seven stories high and hangs a green flag representing the Great Song Dynasty.

Anyone who is familiar with it knows that this is the Song Dynasty's envoy ship, and there must be a high-ranking official in the court who is going to represent the Song Dynasty on an envoy to other countries.

On the top floor, there was a small table, and two people sat facing each other.

"Since the end of the Han Dynasty, the world has been divided into six parts, and only our Song Dynasty has frequent chaos. The reason is that there are northern exiles and border troubles outside, and thieves rebelled inside. Now our dynasty has already connected with privets, and the northern captivity of Khitan is not enough. Fear, as for Fang La, the bandit in Qingxi, as long as he joins forces with Soochow, he will be wiped out in no time. You must persuade the Sun Quan Alliance to go here."

Opposite him, a middle-aged man in a scarlet official uniform clasped his fists and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Majesty. Your Majesty has favored you and reused him. Xi will certainly fulfill his mission."

"Sun Quan took Guan Yu's prestige and thought day and night to expand his army and horses to conquer Jingzhou. If he can give him some money to recruit troops, he will be happy to form an alliance."

Lan Congxi said respectfully, "Among the six dynasties, only our Great Song Dynasty has strong financial resources. This is the way to govern the country with kindness. It is really a great blessing for the officials to be assisted by kindness."

Cai Jing looked lonely and sighed, "Do you think I don't want to strengthen the country's elite soldiers? However, His Majesty doesn't like it. Your Majesty spends a lot of money. If I don't have money, I will be prime minister for three years. Yufeng Tycoon. Hehe, if you let me go , In just a few years, why should I, Da Song, form an alliance with others!"

These words were a bit embarrassing, Lan Congxi pretended not to hear, and kept pouring tea.

He is Cai Jing's confidant, even if he is not, Cai Jing is not afraid of him telling the truth.

Today, even if I knew it, I probably laughed it off.

Cai Jing has assisted Zhao Ji for so many years, and he has already seen through it. His Majesty seems absurd, but in fact he is extremely intelligent.

He is very good at juggling power and tactics, and he is also one of his pawns. As for the relationship between the monarch and his ministers, there is almost no such thing.

His Majesty is romantic and affectionate, and seems to be nice to everyone, especially the people around him, but in fact he only cares about himself.

His favorite Empress Maode was captured by Fang La. His Majesty was worried that she would be humiliated, and it would be detrimental to the dignity of the royal family if it was spread, so he even asked Beidou Si to find an opportunity to get rid of Empress Dowager.
The ruthlessness of human beings ends here.
Cai Jing has also been really tired these years. He earned an astonishing wealth for the Song Dynasty, but half of it was spent on the extravagant pleasures of the emperor.

Many emperors have only been to the gardens, gardens, and high-rise buildings built everywhere, but they are still willing to ask for new ones.

There are also Shenxiao Palace and Daxiangguo Temple, which are not fuel-efficient lamps. During the years of the Song Dynasty, the emperor changed one after another, and there were scandals such as candle shadows shaking red.

Within the Six Dynasties, although the three kingdoms of Wei, Shu and Wu were the smallest, they were all extremely capable of fighting, and the surrounding barbarians bowed their heads and listened to each other. If the three of them did not like to fight each other and fight each other, the situation in the world might not be so good.

The Tang Dynasty is recognized as the most powerful country, with fierce generals like clouds, counselors like rain, and kings who are capable, but the power of the nobles is a bit strong, and the most serious thing at the moment is internal fighting.

The Song Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty did not have aristocratic families, but each had its own troubles.

In the Song Dynasty, the emperor was frivolous and indulged in pleasure, while in the Ming Dynasty, the courtiers were too selfish, and forming cliques for personal gain was a common practice, which made the two dynasties somewhat powerless and unable to suppress the surrounding barbarians.

Cai Jingchang sighed, whether it was Song or Ming, the main thing is that the founding emperor and the group of virtuous officials died too quickly.

There is no successor! ——
"You have to tie the bell to untie it. If you're really scared, go to southern Xinjiang."

Da Qiao looked at Li Yu frowning all day long, and for some reason, felt a little distressed.

It may be that Li Yu called her sister and sister every day, calling out a little bit of sibling affection.

"Speaking lightly, I have never been to southern Xinjiang. There are wizards everywhere, and it is too dangerous. And I may not be able to find someone who will relieve my curse."

Da Qiao pursed his lips and said angrily, "Isn't it just a map?"

"map?"

"When the Han Dynasty was prosperous, it sent countless talented people to travel around the world and draw maps. Although it is divided into six dynasties, maps are everywhere."

Originally maps were important state secrets and were not easily revealed, but there are too many capable people in this world, these are meaningless at all, and the strong can even easily change the terrain.

Because of this, maps have become a common thing, mostly bought by caravans, so as not to get lost when doing business.

Li Yu patted his butt, stood up and walked out.

"Where are you going?"

"Buy a map!"

"You're going out like this?" Da Qiao looked at him amusedly.

Li Yu slapped his forehead, "I almost forgot, Lian'er, come here!"

Pan Jinlian, who was practicing, came over excitedly, touched the sweat on her forehead, "Brother Li Yu, did you call me?"

"Go and buy a copy of all the maps in the bookstore!"

After half a stick of incense, Li Yu came to the study, looked at the thick stack, and excitedly unfolded it.

"This is Southern Border?"

Li Yu looked at the map and was beyond shocked. The Six Dynasties were far beyond his imagination.

Almost all of these six countries have retained their original land, and they are spliced ​​together, which means that they are six times the size of the unified Central Plains Dynasty.

The areas that overlap each other have become different cities.For example, Soochow has a Jiankang, and Daming also has a Jinling.There was Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty, and Jingzhao Mansion in the Song Dynasty.

And Southern Border is even bigger than the Six Dynasties!

It's just that they are also more dispersed, with more than six hundred forces, large and small.

Below are the notes left by the person who drew the map:

There are many mountains in southern Xinjiang, the folk customs are tough, miasma is pervasive, and there are often evil ways.

This sentence made Li Yu retreat and go to southern Xinjiang. Maybe the old curse was not removed, and a new one was added, that would be called wanting to cry without tears.

Da Qiao was lying on the soft bed in the study room, with his slender legs upturned, his buckskin boots kicking back and forth, holding a map in his hand, and asked with a smile, "Why, are you scared?"

"A little bit." Li Yu replied honestly.

He rolled his eyes and asked, "Sister Da Qiao, if I go to southern Xinjiang, will you accompany me?"

"No." Da Qiao replied immediately without any hesitation.

Li Yu's face collapsed, although he didn't intend to go, but now he was somewhat disappointed, "Why?"

"I have to wait here until my sister escapes. She knows I'm in Bianliang. If I leave, she won't be able to find me after she escapes."

Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao are in Jiangdong, but they still want to escape, who will believe it.

Li Yu was gossiping and asked, "You are in Jiangdong?"

A map flew over, Li Yu dodged it lightly, Da Qiao said angrily: "Don't ask!"

When talking about her younger sister, Da Qiao became a little irritable. She had been waiting in Bianliang for too long.

Jiankang is a land of tigers and wolves, with turbulent and weird palaces, blood flowing into rivers at every turn, and a terrifying conspiracy.

"Who can take my little sister and escape from that right and wrong place?"
