He is already over fifty years old, coupled with long-term mental stress, and now he will be panting for breath every few steps, which is not easy.

Lian brought some millet porridge and pickles from the kitchen and put them on the table, "Husband, it's time to have some breakfast, you see that your body is already so weak, if it goes on for a long time, I'm really worried that you won't be able to bear it." ”

Song Ci waved his hand weakly, but he didn't have too much appetite.

"Madam, put things down, Song really has no appetite, by the way, I don't know if there are anti-thieves around Lanzhu County recently?"

Lian said: "It's not bad recently, I don't know if Jia Yidao's team has left Lanzhu County, everything has been calm these days, and nothing major has happened."

Song Ci nodded, although the situation has gradually stabilized now, the potential threat should not be underestimated.

"Madam, you call Lu Sheng Renyou to me, Song has something to say to them at this moment.

Lian said: "What can the husband do?" At the moment, Lanzhu County is very peaceful, and there are no homicides, what is there to do?"

"This.... As for what it is, you don't care, anyway, madam, you can help me call them, this matter, it's not important to say it's important, it's important to say it's not important, Song is just taking precautions. ”

Lian nodded, and then left, and soon Lu Sheng and Ren You walked over.

"My lord, do you have anything to do with us?"

Song Ci said: "Lu Sheng Ren You, Song Mou's right eyelid has been jumping recently, I suspect that something big will happen soon, otherwise, how about you arrange soldiers to patrol the streets in turns every day from now on?"

"Yes, my lord, we know."

"Well, there are 100 people in each squad, and 1,000 people are sent out every day, after all, there are soldiers in our military camp, and it is not bad to take them out for training, otherwise if there is a war one day, wouldn't you have no experience at all?"

As soon as they nodded and left, they did so, not daring to make a mistake.

In the Xuande Hall of the Lin'an Palace, at this moment, including Emperor Song Lizong, all of them have gathered together, and everyone gathered around the table, cheering, they are playing crickets.

Song Lizong's voice was the loudest, and a generation of emperors made a big fuss with the ministers like this, and he was demoted.

On the table, there were four or five crickets, most of them with the same physique, all of them of average size, all gathered together, and they were fighting.

Soon the winner was divided, Song Lizong was defeated, his cricket was killed in battle, and his corpse was on the spot.

A minister said: "The emperor should not be angry, it's just a cricket, besides, your cricket physique is not good, and you have been fighting for a long time, and it is understandable that you are defeated at this moment, Your Majesty."

Song Lizong said: "I am willing to gamble and lose, this is not a big deal, at the same time, about the bet, I admit it, isn't it a few hundred taels of silver?" I have a lot of Great Song Treasury, all of which are mine, what is so rare at this moment?"

He took out a few hundred taels of silver tickets from his bosom and handed them on the table, and these ministers did not dare to take them at all, for fear of offending Song Lizong and being punished.

Song Lizong said: "Ladies and gentlemen, even if you take it, as the king of a country, can I still be untrustworthy?" What kind of system is this? What do you say?"

Everyone echoed, and then with Prime Minister Liu taking the lead, the silver tickets on the table were divided.

Prime Minister Liu said: "Your Majesty, in fact, it's not that the emperor doesn't know how to fight crickets, but that the emperor didn't choose the right one, and the minister thinks that the emperor didn't choose crickets as Uncle Guo said, and it's understandable that he can be defeated!"

"Also, didn't Uncle Guo tell him what he had written? Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that you can choose according to the above selection of the weaving scripture, and then go outside to catch crickets. ”

In addition, these ministers echoed one after another, they felt that what Prime Minister Liu said was very right, and it would be enough to win the emperor once, and they didn't dare to win more.

"Your Majesty, what Prime Minister Liu said is completely reasonable, I think it, as long as the emperor chooses the crickets, at that time, he will definitely be able to defeat us."

Song Lizong felt reasonable, but he was also overjoyed: "Ladies and gentlemen, especially Prime Minister Liu, I think what you said is very reasonable, otherwise, let's go outside to catch crickets together?"

"I'll take the order."

Saying that, everyone walked out of the Xuande Hall and came to the lawn outside the main hall, there are many crickets here, and they are shouting every night, and no one in the palace has sent someone to clean up, even if they disturb the good dream, they dare not kill.

Coming to the lawn, Song Lizong signaled everyone to be quiet, and then laughed, "Listen, listen, this cricket's shout, every sentence is powerful, very powerful, I think, they must be very powerful crickets." ”

"What the emperor said is that these crickets belong to the emperor if they are in the palace, even if they are crickets outside the palace, as long as they are still in the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, they also belong to the emperor."

"Yes, yes, the emperor, all the crickets in the Great Song Dynasty are the emperor's, and no one can stop them."

The civil and military officials touted vigorously, and Song Lizong also took off his dragon robe, and then threw himself down on the grass at once, causing everyone to hurriedly surround him.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you have to be careful of the dragon body, if you are accidentally injured, what will happen? How can I be good?"

"Yes, yes, the emperor, you are the foundation of my Great Song Dynasty, about catching crickets, you must not be personally put into battle by the emperor, you are a dragon, if you are accidentally injured, then what's the matter?"

Song Lizong got up from the grass and patted the dragon robe on his body and said, "You Aiqing don't worry, my body is still relatively strong, and I am completely fine, besides, I am trying to catch crickets, why do I care so much?"

"Ladies and gentlemen, you all go away, I'm going to start catching crickets, in case I accidentally bump into you, don't blame me for being careless."

The civil and military officials did not dare to be careless at all, they did not dare to walk away, so they had to stay aside honestly, in case Song Lizong fell and was injured, they had to go for treatment, so that they could get various rewards.

Not far away, the Queen Mother saw such a scene, and immediately walked over from the side, and when she saw Song Lizong like this, she scolded her.

"Your Majesty, and all the ministers, you are really disappointed and disappointed by the mourning family, as the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, as the pillar of the imperial court, you are... How dare you catch crickets here? ”

The civil and military officials were taken aback, and the Queen Mother continued: "The mourning family thought that you could assist the emperor in governing the country, but I didn't expect you to be like this, and the mourning family is very disappointed in you.

Hundreds of officials knelt on the ground, including Prime Minister Liu, the fault of today's incident was not with them, but with this Emperor Lizong, this matter was brought out by him, otherwise how dare he?

Song Lizong walked up after saluting, "Queen Mother, I just want to play with crickets, are you like this?" Besides, as an emperor, can't you even play your usual preferences?"

The Queen Mother was furious, she knew that it was over, the Great Song Dynasty would be destroyed in the hands of Song Lizong sooner or later, sooner or later, an emperor would think about crickets and crickets all day long, what kind of system would this be?

The Queen Mother really wants to ignore it, but she knows that she can't, she doesn't know what the current situation of the Great Song Dynasty is, if she doesn't ask about the big things, then what will happen to the people in the world?

"I said the emperor, you are the king of a country, you are the hope of the entire Great Song Dynasty, you yourself said, you govern the country like this, how can the Great Song Dynasty not finish?"

"Think about it, think about the Northern Song Dynasty, think about the Jin people, they are so powerful, but in the end they still fell into the end of a ruined country."

"Emperor, don't you know any of these things? Even if you don't know, but the Queen Mother has reminded you many times, why don't you know at all?"

She sighed, and at this moment she knew that Song Lizong's being the emperor was simply a joke, an absolute joke, no matter who was better than him.

No matter how much the Queen Mother says, Song Lizong just doesn't believe it at this moment, he doesn't believe it and doesn't want to believe it, what's wrong with playing a cricket? Can crickets still mislead the country?

"Queen Mother, I understand what you said, but this cricket, I really can't figure out what's wrong with playing with crickets? Is the cricket mistaken or mistaken something? The child doesn't know why you insist on obstructing the child so much. ”

The Queen Mother didn't want to explain, and she didn't want to say it, her heart was tired, and she began to yearn for the life of ordinary people at this moment.

Born in the emperor's family is tired, let's be a flower grower in the next life!

She sighed deeply, turned her head and left at this moment, her heart was tired, and she didn't want to care anymore.

As soon as the Queen Mother left, Song Lizong continued to lead everyone in the grass to find traces of crickets, and he vowed that he must find a bigger and more robust cricket.

At the same time, on the Jiangzhou side, with the tragic death of Vice General Zhou, Jia Rudao's prestige in this place is even greater at this moment, and almost all of the prefects are still his people, and they have also become a hall of words, and no one dares to disobey his will.

On this day, Jia Rudao got a few more crickets from other places, their physique was bigger and more robust than the previous victorious general, and if they fought, they would never have the upper hand.

Jia Rudao was overjoyed, and directly ordered to build a separate residence for people, and deliberately gave him a cricket to live in, and the treatment was very good.

Jiangzhou City, recently because of his reasons, many people around the country have been angry at this moment, this new uncle is not a good person, and he stays in the gambling hall almost every day to fight crickets.

Not only that, but they also killed innocents indiscriminately, so at this moment, a civil uprising occurred. Outside Jiangzhou City, there is a team organized by a group of people, they gathered together from outside the city, there are hundreds of people, coming to the city at this moment, directly hitting the destination Jiangzhou Mansion.

All these people had in their hands the utensils used to cut vegetables, including kitchen knives, sickles, and wood knives.

Everyone has been bullied enough by Jia Yidao, and they can't bear it anymore, and today they plan to forcibly attack the prefect and take their lives.

At the same time, the official inside the city gate found out, and immediately rushed to inform him, and when he entered the gambling hall, he said: "Uncle Guo's big thing is not good, and a group of anti-thieves have appeared in Jiangzhou City, and there should be five or six hundred people."
