Doom Roar

634 Meeting the Song Emperor

.

Because of this, in Liu Zuimo's view, this star chasing sword should have belonged to Xu Mo, and she has only kept it for the past nine years.

Two days later, Lin'an Palace.

Looking at the slightly stingy, or simple buildings with green tiles and red walls in front of me, and comparing them with the magnificent Forbidden City in Beijing in my memory, the strong contrast makes me see for the first time that this real world only exists in historical records. The Xu Mo sigh ratio of the building.

This is the last glorious era of Chinese civilization in this world, and what follows will be a century-long dark sinking under the iron hooves of alien races.

In China after Yashan, who knows what kind of humiliation and bitterness is behind this simple sentence. [

Of course, history has long since changed into an indifferent symbol in memory with the vicissitudes of life. Even if Xu Mo knows what kind of blood and tears happened in the land of China, but he has never experienced it himself, it is difficult to understand the unforgettable The pain of the skin.

Standing here expressing inexplicable emotion is nothing more than a conditioned reflex... After all, in modern society, the 5000-year splendid civilization created by our ancestors is the only bit of dignity and confidence in the hearts of Chinese people.

Xu Mohui suddenly appeared in Lin'an Palace, so to speak, he took advantage of Liu Zuimo's favor, and after exchanging lessons with him in the valley that night, Liu Zuimo sold him out very shamelessly the next day.

This woman's uncle is the only remaining veteran military general of the dynasty, and her senior brother is a supreme state teacher of the dynasty. Under the two circumstances, Xu Mo's black material appeared on the desk of the current emperor Zhao Gou immediately. .

Knowing Xu Mo's existence, Zhao Gou was also taken aback. It is not uncommon for practitioners to accept royal offerings, but most of them are as bodyguards. There has never been a practitioner on the battlefield, let alone suspected A powerful person who is reincarnated from a fairy.

Zhao Gou believed it, otherwise he would not have gone to Longhu Mountain to invite Daoist Danxia to worship him as the national teacher. When the Jin army went south, Zhao Gou immediately thought of asking the practitioners from Longhu Mountain to cast spells to resist the Jin army. But Danxia Guoshi, who represents the Longhushan faction, has always kept this secret, and finally only sent a team of one hundred foreign disciples to help the court fight against the gold.

Zhao Gou expressed extreme dissatisfaction with Longhushan's perfunctory attitude of crossing the river and demolishing bridges. If it weren't for the imminent war and internal friction, he might have already decreed to pick up the imperial card from Longhushan.

Liu Zuimo and Xu Mo's move, even though it was just a matter of heart, indirectly saved Longhushan from a catastrophe.

With the recommendation of the two powerful figures in the court, Old General Han and Danxia Guoshi, Xu Mo also had to go to the finals of the talent recruitment list. In just two days, the order of the summoning by the court officials was given by the palace. It was passed to Xu Mo.

According to the normal procedure, before being summoned by the king of a country, one has to bathe and change clothes, and under the guidance of the etiquette officer, there are certain etiquette and taboos. As a courtesy, Xu Mo was allowed to meet directly without taking off his weapon.

Xiao Huangmen, who came to announce the decree, read the last line and his eyes were red. Sword shoes are an honor that even princes and princes may not be able to get. The court upstart.

Xu Mo didn't feel flattered, but he felt that Zhao Gou was not stupid. He knew that if he wanted to harm him with his own strength, it would be useless to fill the palace with armored troops. It would be better to be generous and earn some respect. Nash's good name.

Judging from the tone of the imperial decree, Zhao Gou was also in a hurry, and didn't even give him any time to clean up, so he directly got Xu Mo into the car with a half request, and was escorted all the way into the palace by a team of heavily armed imperial guards. middle.

After all, the Lin'an Imperial Palace was built hastily, and it was not as grand as Bianliang City at the time. If the surrounding walls were thick and thick, it would look like a wealthy family's house that had been enlarged several times.

However, although the sparrow is small and well-equipped, as a palace, it basically has all the halls that should be in it. However, it may be due to the emptiness of the national treasury. The Lin'an Palace lacks the gorgeous atmosphere of the lord of the world.

Xu Mo's probing did not surprise Xiao Huangmen who was leading the way. People who came to the palace for the first time basically looked like this out of curiosity, but the palace now is not the magnificent Bianliang Palace at the beginning. The appearance made him a palace man feel a little embarrassed, so he couldn't help explaining:

"When I was still in Bianliang City, the imperial palace was dozens of times larger than here, but the Jingkang change came first. The officials couldn't bear the suffering of their father and brother in the north while they enjoyed the glory all by themselves. They ordered the Ministry of Industry to prohibit extravagance and revised it several times. The plan led to the present imperial palace, and it is indeed hard for the officials..."

Xu Mo just smiled casually. If it were someone else, this would be the best time to take the lead and slap the emperor's horse hard. But he doesn't need to please Zhao Gou to achieve his goal, so naturally he doesn't bother to say that. I listened to disgusting words against my will.

Smallness also has small advantages. From the gate of the palace to the imperial garden, Xu Mo followed the pace of ordinary people at the little yellow gate, and it took less than 10 minutes. Don't even think about touching the gate of the imperial garden. [

"Xiao Lang-jun wait here for a while, the younger one will report to the official."

Leaving Xu Mo in a long corridor at the entrance of the imperial garden, the little yellow gate who led the way trotted forward to answer the decree, his movements were as agile as if he had practiced lightness kung fu.

Although the Royal Garden is not considered a harem, but as the only leisure place in the palace, it is a place where the harem concubines like to hang out. In less than 10 minutes, Xu Mo passed by at least five or six young women who looked like concubines. , more or less followed by a team of court ladies, shouting in front and embracing in front and behind, with a noble air.

Although they can't compare with Bai Suzhen and Cen Biqing who are not of human beauty, but the women who can be selected into the palace are not one-in-a-million in terms of beauty, and they are fat, swallows and thin, each has its own merits, just looking at it makes people feel pleasing to the eye.

On weekdays, except for a small number of guards, there are few other people in the imperial garden. The ministers and concubines in the court are very familiar, but no one has ever seen Xu Mo, so these concubines and court ladies all voted for Xu Mo when they passed by. With curious eyes, Xu Mo also smiled back in a friendly manner, which immediately attracted a burst of laughter.

Three palaces and six courtyards, three thousand beauties, if that Zhao Gou is really the spiritual projection of Tang Baiqiang, this old man is really blessed.

But having said that, it seems that Zhao Gou's little friend has been devastated after his journey to the south. It seems that there is nothing to envy in guarding such a big harem...

When Xu Mo was arranging Zhao Gou maliciously, Xiao Huangmen, who had led the way for him just now, finally ran back out of breath. Seeing that Xu Mo was still in place and not running around, he breathed a sigh of relief and said sharply: "Little Lang, hurry up!" Follow me, the official wants to see you!"

Five minutes later, in a study in the Imperial Garden, Xu Mo finally saw the Song No.5.

This famous cowardly emperor in history doesn't look so unbearable on the outside, his slightly fat tall body is still burly and strong, and his square face with Chinese characters reveals an unquestionable majesty. , just by appearance alone, it feels like a generation of Mingjun.

However, what Xu Mo cared about was not Zhao Gou's appearance. While sizing up the opponent's appearance, he was also looking for traces of Tang Baiqiang's characteristics that might appear on Zhao Gou's body one by one according to the information provided by Tang Guo.

It was an informal meeting at the moment. Although Zhao Gou was not wearing a dragon robe, the apricot-yellow uniform covered most of his body. Xu Mo couldn't just knock Zhao Gou unconscious and strip him naked, so he temporarily gave up the idea of ​​investigating.

"You are Xu Moxu Chinese?"

"Yes."

Sitting behind the desk, Zhao Gou looked at Xu Mo for a moment, seeing that Xu Mo didn't seem to be bowing down, and there was a little displeasure on his brows, but he didn't attack.

"sit down."

"Thank you, officer."

Although Xu Mo didn't have the habit of bowing to the imperial power, no matter how bad the other party was, he was still the emperor of a country, and he always wanted to save some face, so he politely thanked him while taking his seat.

This move made Zhao Gou look better. Although he cared about Jin's invasion to the south, he also cared about the emperor's dignity.

"Xu Mo, I am very pleased that you responded to the imperial court's recruitment and rose up to fight against gold, but I have also seen your re-examination results in the recruitment hall. The martial arts test is very good, but the literary test is a mess...you even the most You don’t even know the basics of marching and formation, so how can I believe that you can defeat the [-] gold army on the north bank? Leading troops to fight is no child’s play, and the lives of hundreds of thousands of soldiers under my command will not tolerate your recklessness.”

In history, when Zhao Gouzai was still an emperor, he was also a ruthless man who could ride a strong horse and make hard work. Although he was later cast into a psychological shadow by the golden man, the bottom line was still there after all, so he was able to say these reasonable and well-founded words. Xu Mo was not surprised.

Xu Mo smiled slightly and said, "Officials, I really don't know how to lead troops, but if I want to repel the Jin army going south, I don't just have to fight the army head-on."

"Oh? What clever plan do you have, come and tell me?"

Xu Mo's words immediately aroused Zhao Gou's curiosity.

You must know that although the current Great Song Dynasty has nearly 30 troops in name, most of them are Xiang soldiers with no combat effectiveness, and there are only 8 or [-] soldiers who can really fight.

Moreover, the so-called three armies have not moved, food and grass go first, and the food and salaries consumed by tens of thousands of troops are astronomical. Although the imperial court guards this rich land in the south of the Yangtze River, the money and food are basically in the hands of officials and wealthy merchants. The treasury is not full. If it is true In a protracted war, even if the Song army could withstand the wolves and tigers of the golden soldiers, the food and pay in the rear might not last long.
