A great man of the Northern Song Dynasty

Long live the official family! "

The cheers continued, and under the illumination of the lights, Zhao Shu led Gao Taotao back to the palace.

"You go and rest."

Zhao Shu entered a large hall where many tablets were enshrined.

Chen Zhongheng stood guard at the door with a solemn expression.

Gao Taotao stood outside, the night breeze was slightly cold, but she refused to leave.

Her husband must be reporting this good news to the emperors of the Song Dynasty.

——The Liao people were defeated, and the future of the Song Dynasty was promising.

As a clan member, after Zhao Shu took over and ascended the throne, there were many doubts from the outside world. These doubts were pressure and made him miserable.

He persisted and refused to back down, making the Song Dynasty stronger step by step.

Have those who objected seen the people tonight?

The people cheered for Zhao Shu from the bottom of their hearts. Everyone present knew that this emperor would win two words in the history books.

"Mingjun!"

Emperors of all dynasties in the Song Dynasty wanted to win this title, but most of them were good at martial arts but could not say anything about their martial arts.

The biggest problem faced by the Song Dynasty since the founding of the country was martial arts. If this problem could not be solved, the so-called wise king would be far-fetched.

Zhao Shu did something that no one before him could do, and he deserves the title of Mingjun.

Gao Taotao pursed his lips and smiled, feeling proud of his husband.

I don’t know how long it took before Zhao Shu came out.

He walked to Gao Taotao, turned around and held her hand, looking at the hall with her.

The two chamberlains slowly closed the door, the tablets gradually disappeared, and then they turned and left.

"You are a wise king!"

"Yeah?"

"Definitely is."

Zhao Shu suddenly stopped and said, "Call Dalang here."

Zhao Xu had already received the news and was rejoicing. After hearing the news, he followed the visitor to the back.

When he arrived, Zhao Shu was already roasting mutton.

"The late emperor wanted to eat something at night, but he refused to work for those people." Zhao Shu pointed to the opposite side and motioned for his son to sit down.

"Everyone has their own way. My way is to make Da Song better, and their way is to serve me well. So I feel that eating mutton at night is not too much."

"yes."

Zhao Xu could only agree.

The mutton was roasted quickly. Zhao Shu cut a few slices for his son and ate the rest himself.

The delicious mutton makes people feel happy. Zhao Shu said: "Eating delicious food makes you feel good. It shows that this person is still greedy. As an emperor, my biggest greed is to make the Song Dynasty better... This great victory has a great impact on the Song Dynasty." What influence will Liao's have in the future? Please tell me."

Gao Taotao was slowly eating roast mutton beside him, and Feiyan was like a wall of meat blocking the wafting oil smoke.

Zhao Xu drank a glass of wine while his father was not paying attention, and then said: "Before the founding of the Song Dynasty, the Central Plains was in chaos and fighting endlessly. The Liao people have been coveting it, but they were blocked by the land of Yanyun and could not succeed. But for his own selfish reasons, Shi Jingtang claimed to be the son emperor and used the land of Yanyun to ask for reinforcements from the Liao people, destroying the Tang Dynasty in one fell swoop... Each subsequent generation of Liao emperors coveted the Song Dynasty..."

The first sentence is the introduction, and the last sentence is the finishing touch.

Every generation of Liao emperors coveted the Song Dynasty...

Gao Taotao asked: "Da Lang, is Yelu Hongji okay?"

In her opinion, after Yelu Hongji ascended the throne, he maintained peace with the Song Dynasty for many years. Is this considered a peaceful emperor?

Zhao Xu shook his head and said: "Mother, it's not that Yelu Hongji doesn't want to go south, it's just that after the Chanyuan Alliance, the Liao people are constantly weakening, so he is not sure."

Zhao Shu nodded and said: "After becoming an emperor, I realized that anyone who is enterprising will never stop conquering foreign countries..."

"The Liao people were ambitious, but they were defeated several times by the Song Dynasty. Their advantage over the Song Dynasty was shaky. If they ignored it, the Song Dynasty would definitely plot Yanyun's land, so Yelu Hongji couldn't bear it anymore. The battle of Yanmen Pass was His temptation was unfortunately defeated.”

"The defeat of Yanmen Pass, I thought, was the dividing line between Song and Liao."

Zhao Xu had studied this matter deeply during this period, and he said confidently: "The Liao army was defeated in this battle. Yelu Hongji vomited blood, and the Liao people's momentum suddenly stagnated. After the news of the great victory was sent back to the Song Dynasty, the Song Dynasty was confident There is a big increase, this is one thing going down and the other going up. Yelu Hongji was panicked, and the Liao people were also panicked. After this great victory in Baozhou, I dare say that the Liao people will be panicked."

"Why?" Zhao Shu raised his glass and took a sip of wine, feeling that the moment was peaceful and beautiful.

Zhao Xu said: "The battle of Yanmen Pass was about offense and defense, and the terrain of Yanmen Pass was dangerous. The Liao people could use non-war crimes to excuse themselves. But the battle of Baozhou was in the wild. Tens of thousands of Liao army elites attacked our infantry, but But they were defeated... From now on, when the Liao people faced the Song army, where was their confidence? And when the Song army faced the Liao army again, they must be a hundred times more confident... Since they are a hundred times more confident... Dad, stop the Sui coins?!"

Boom!

The people waiting nearby seemed to hear a thunderbolt from the clear sky.

That’s a yearly coin!

How many years? Since the Zhenzong era, the Song Dynasty has been giving money to the Liao people every year.

At first everyone felt humiliated, but later they gradually felt that the money had brought them peace, and they felt at ease.

During the Qingli period, when the Liao army was suppressed and coerced, the Song Dynasty increased the annual coins every year, and peace remained.

Can it be done without the Sui coins?

No one is a cheap person, but if you don’t give the money for decades, you won’t give it. Where will Song Liao go?

What does the future hold?

The Song Dynasty experienced the excitement of a great victory. They had longing for the future, but they never thought about falling out with the Liao Kingdom.

So they were a little flustered.

Gao Taotao was also a little flustered.

Zhao Shu raised his glass and drank, then looked at Zhao Xu, stood up for a long time, and said, "Sleep."

This is my son, full of initiative.

It’s great to be young.

Gao Taotao looked back from time to time to watch his son go away, feeling a little lost.

"What's wrong?" Zhao Shu felt something was wrong with his wife.

Gao Taotao said with some disappointment: "I suddenly feel that Da Lang has grown up."

"He has grown up." Zhao Shu sighed: "Stop the Sui coins... This is the first time in decades that someone has said this."

Gao Taotao said with some worry: "The Sui coins are now a fig leaf for the Liao people. If the Sui coins are stopped, I am worried that the Liao people will use all their strength to deal with the Song Dynasty. By then, will the Song Dynasty be able to stop them?"

Under the all-out attack, can the Song Dynasty resist it?

Zhao Shu didn't answer. He looked at the night sky with bright eyes.

Zhao Xu was also looking at the night sky.

After he returned to Qingning Palace, he asked someone to prepare drinks.

"Your Majesty, it's late at night."

Qiao Er's little life has been good recently, and his hair looks smooth and smooth.

Zhao Xu glanced at him, Qiao Er shivered and hurried out to give orders.

"Have a chicken drumstick."

Zhao Xu sat down and Wang Chongnian came over to serve tea.

"What will happen if the Sui coins are stopped?"

Zhao Xu suddenly asked.

"What?" Wang Chongnian was stunned, "Sui coins? What Sui coins are stopped?"

This is the deep-rooted belief that the annual coins should be given.

"Nothing said."

Zhao Xu sat there with bright eyes.

When the power of the Song Dynasty reached this point, the morale of the military and the people was at its peak, but the annual coins were like a reminder to these soldiers and civilians that the Song Dynasty was still far away, and the Liao people were riding on their heads. Shit and piss.

Wang Chongnian turned around, his body suddenly stagnated, and he slowly turned around and said, "Your Majesty, you mean... to stop the Liao people's Sui coins?"

Zhao Xu nodded, and Wang Chongnian took a breath, "Isn't this... maybe inappropriate?"

This is the attitude.

Zhao Xu was not angry because the Song Dynasty had been weak for a long time. Although it had gradually improved in recent years, many people would hesitate to suddenly fall out with the Liao people.

"Your Majesty, once the Liao people attack with all their strength..." This is everyone's worry.

The Song Dynasty is very good now, but is it so good that it can destroy the Liao people?

Probably not?

"They don't dare!"

When the drink came, Zhao Xu took it and took a sip. He raised his head and said, "After repeated defeats, unless there is no way out, how can Yelu Hongji dare to gamble with the Song Dynasty on the fate of the country at this time?"

"Betting on the fate of the country?"

Wang Chongnian's heart was agitated, "Has the Song Dynasty reached this point? I feel excited just thinking about it."

"Time waits for no one!"

Zhao Xu finished his wine and said confidently: "This Song Dynasty is different!"

…

Shen An returned home all the way, and when he entered Yulin Lane, the lights suddenly turned on.

The doors of every house were open, and the neighbors stood in front of their homes, saluting in unison, "Congratulations to County Duke Shen on his triumphant return!"

this……

There are countless officials and dignitaries in Bianliang City, and there are many common people who are neighbors with them, but everyone does what they want, and it is rare to see anyone deliberately flattering.

Shen An never thought that someone would greet him with such a grand ceremony.

All the men and women, old and young, stood there with smiles on their faces. The children were trying their best to endure the excitement.

Is this congratulations on my triumph?

No, it was to congratulate the Song Dynasty for defeating the Liao people.

An old man came out, holding a bowl in his hand.

Very big bowl.

The old man held the bowl with some difficulty, and said as he came closer: "I was very happy to know that Duke Shen defeated the Liao people in this battle... I think back to those days, whenever the Liao envoys threatened me, we were so frightened that we wished we could move our families. Go to the south. Now we can live in peace, thanks to the fighting of Duke Shen... We and Duke Shen live next to each other. UU Reading www.uukｋｎshu.net What an honor. Today, Duke Shen returns home in triumph, and we can only have a thin glass of wine. ……please."

This is what the neighbors want, and Shen An must accept it.

He thought there was just a little wine in the big bowl, but when he took the big bowl, he misjudged the weight and his hand sank...

Damn it!

Is this big bowl used to hold incense?

There is at least two or three kilograms of wine in it.

And the drink smells a bit harsh to the nose.

High alcohol!

The old man probably felt something was wrong. He sniffed and turned around to look at a young man in embarrassment.

The young man's face was flushed and his eyes were blurry. It was obvious that he had drunk too much.

I just asked you to get some light wine, but you actually got strong liquor, and so much... I will kill you later.

"Mr. Shen... why don't you drink a little."

Shen An smiled, raised his head and drank.

This is the deep friendship between the neighbors and the greatest compliment to him as a neighbor. Even if he is drunk, he will drink on the spot.

"good!"

He finished his drink and said, "Thank you all, neighbors."

"elder brother!"

Guoguo waited in the distance for a long time and became impatient.

As soon as she moved her feet, Huahua rushed over, stood up, laid her front paws on Shen An's chest, and stuck out her tongue to lick his face.

Shen An avoided it for a moment, stretched out his hand to rub Huahua's head, and walked over.

"Congratulations to my brother on your triumphant victory."

Guo Guo was such a blessed person, Shen An touched the top of her head and said with a smile, "Are you good at home?"

"good."

Shen An lowered his hands in front of him, Guo Guo skillfully grabbed his sleeve, and the brother and sister slowly entered the alley.

There were screams from behind.

"I asked you to get some light wine, but you got some strong liquor. I will beat you to death today... and you still run... stop!"

…

This boss directly rewards Guoguo...

Guoguo has a leader.
