Chapter 448: Yellow Robe
Dong Wende went to the upper study.
Wang Xi stayed to record Dong Ruyi's favorite food.
Dong Ruyi loves to eat a lot, and even Wang Xi has never heard of some of them.
After Wang Xi finished writing the last word, he wiped the sweat on his forehead, and said in his heart: "This is really a person who can eat." ”
Dong Ruyi hugged his fists and said: "There is a prince of Lao." ”
She said and handed over the snack in her hand.
Wang Xi laughed: "Eh, this is a miscellaneous family"
Dong Ruyi said with a smile: "Don't you dare to be your father-in-law's reward, give your father-in-law a taste." ”
Wang Xi took a piece and smiled and went back to the emperor's words.

Dong Wende is talking about the history of the Song Dynasty today.
He not only spoke about the prosperity of the Song Dynasty, but also about the fall of the Song Dynasty.
The emperor sighed: "The Song Dynasty and the country are rich and strong, but they can't escape the fate of the country, and I don't know how long my Xiao family can stand?"
Dong Wende said: "Minister, panic." ”
The emperor waved his hand, indicating that it had nothing to do with him.
He suddenly said, "Why does Dong Qing's family think Song perished?"
Dong Wende hugged his fists and said: "The minister believes that the reason why the Song Dynasty perished was a cycle of cause and effect. ”
When the emperor heard this, his face was a little unkind, the Xiao family, like the Zhao family, was dressed in yellow robes.
Seeing this, Dong Wende hurriedly said: "The minister thinks that Tang is the cause of Song, and the reason why Song perished is the fruit of Tang." ”
The emperor was puzzled: "Oh?
Dong Wende saluted and said: "The first reason why the Song Dynasty perished was that the Song Dynasty did not have a complete defense line, so it could not defend the cavalry in the north.
And the one who caused such a situation in the Song Dynasty was the Tang Dynasty.
The Huairou policy of the Tang Dynasty led to the loss of Hetao, Longyou, Liaodong, and Northern Hebei during the reign of the Song Dynasty. ”
The emperor listened to the novelty and motioned for Dong Wende to continue.
He whispered: "Zhang Fuhai, let Ruyi come over and listen to it." ”
Zhang Fuhai bowed his head, and then retreated.
He is now more and more unable to understand the emperor.
Dong Wende only paused for a moment before continuing.
"The second reason for this is that the enemy that the Song Dynasty faced was the most formidable enemy in history.
Whether it is Western Xia, or Jin, Liao, and Yuanmeng, they are all the strongest in history.
The main reason for the defeat of the Song Dynasty was that the monarch of the Song Dynasty valued agriculture and commerce and light soldiers. ”
Dong Ruyi followed Zhang Fuhai and walked in.
She looked at Dong Wende, who was talking eloquently, and her heart was full of pride.
She didn't make a sound, just curtsied, and sat aside.
The emperor listened carefully at the moment, he just glanced at Dong Ruyi lightly, and then thought seriously again.
Dong Wende's policy on Song is different from others.
In other words, others will definitely say that the Zhao family's gains are not right, so they emphasize literature over military force, leading to the collapse of the country.
Where did Dong Wende think about that, he just wanted to take this opportunity to remind His Majesty today not to listen to slander and kill the An family.
The matter of the old Wang Ge raiding the house was spread in the court, but no one knew the specific reason.
And Dong Wende didn't know that Wang Ge's old house was raided, because of Dong Ruyi's intervention.
Dong Wende continued, "The minister sighed at the wisdom of the Song people.
If it weren't for them, there would be no paper today, and there would be no poetry that has survived to the world.
But these still could not stop the Mongols' iron horses.
Even if they had invented artillery, it would only be used for siege and land. ”
Dong Wende said energetically, and he said a lot of things freely.
Anyway, in the end, he made the point.
He believed that the final demise of the Song Dynasty was at the hands of traitors.
If it weren't for those traitors, the Song Dynasty might have been able to stand for a hundred years.
Dong Ruyi wiped a cold sweat for Dong Wende.
Everyone thought that the Xiao family was inherited by Emperor Xuanyuan, but this was not the case.
And the suspicion of the emperor surnamed Xiao in the past generations also came from this.
Like the Zhao family, they all stole other people's countries and became emperors.
And they also have a common heart disease, that is, they are afraid of the rebellion of the generals and mercenaries.
Dong Wende withdrew after speaking.
He thinks that there are some things that His Majesty has to figure out for himself.
Dong Ru was relieved when he asked Dong Wende to leave, he was really afraid that Dong Wende would touch the emperor's scales.

This Great Zhou Jiangshan originally belonged to the Xuanyuan family.
The ancestor of the Xiao family was just the righteous brother of Emperor Xuanyuan, and they fought the Great Zhou Dynasty together, but unfortunately at the last stop, Emperor Xuanyuan was seriously injured and died.
And Prince Xuanyuan also died.
Emperor Xuanyuan thought about the overall situation, and passed the throne to his brother-in-law Xiao Liang when he was dying.
And Xiao Liang has always been kind to the Xuanyuan family, and has been crowned king for generations.
Unfortunately, this is not the case.
It is a fact that Emperor Xuanyuan died of serious injuries at the last stop, but Prince Xuanyuan's death was not as simple as an accident.
It was Xiao Liang's eldest son and Xiao Liang's subordinates who did it, for the sake of the Xuanyuan family.
Due to years of war, Emperor Xuanyuan only has one son and one grandson.
As soon as the crown prince died, his five-year-old imperial grandson could not support the newly established Great Zhou.
In the big week, there were external troubles, and everyone supported Xiao Liang together.
Xiao Liang conformed to the will of the people and became the emperor.
The stormy Great Zhou survived Xiao Liang's lifelong battle with his son.
By the time they remembered the canonized little Xuanyuan King, he had already grown up.
But at that time, he didn't know how his father died.
Later, Prince Xuanyuan's old ministry found him, and he began a three-generational plan to restore the country.
These Dong Ruyi only learned about it after marrying Xuanyuan Yi.
In order to cross the sea all over the world, the Xiao family has been looking for the old department of Prince Xuanyuan, and they thought that they had already killed all the people.
And with the efforts of the three generations of Xuanyuan Kings, they have been assassinated countless times and rescued countless times, winning the trust of today's Xiao family.
Dong Ruyi was depressed to death, these are innumerable, and the relationship is chaotic.
***
When Dong Ruyi came back to his senses, the emperor had already retreated.
What she didn't know was that the Xiao family had actually always wanted to cut the grass and eradicate the roots.
The surname Xuanyuan is like a thorn in the throat, making it difficult for them to sit still.
It's just the merits of the Xuanyuan Palace, so they can't kill at will.
Fortunately, the heirs of the Xuanyuan Mansion were difficult, and the Xiao family endured it again and again.
Dong Ruyi sat quietly on the side, she didn't know what the emperor meant by retreating.
It's just that when she knows that she shouldn't speak, she must not ask questions.
The emperor looked at Dong Ruyi, no one knew what he was thinking at the moment.
The emperor suddenly asked: "Ruyi, what do you think of Zhao Kuangyin's yellow robe?"
Dong Ruyi's body shook, her eyes flashed slightly, but in an instant she returned to normal.
She raised her head and said, "Did Uncle Huang ask about Song Taizu's mutiny?"
She is only a six-year-old child at the moment, and the emperor may just want to hear the opinions of others when he asks such a question.
And in this case, it is not good for the emperor to ask others directly.
The emperor's words and deeds will cause other people's speculation.
