"Since you know that you are wrong, then the mourning family will not hold you responsible, you have to remember that Jia Rudao is the prime minister of the Southern Song Dynasty, and the power of one person is above ten thousand people, and the mourning family has an absolute reason to kill you."

"Let's go, you can't talk nonsense about this in the future, remember, the mourning family doesn't want to hear it a second time."

"It's the Queen Mother."

Looking at the back of the maid leaving, Empress Dowager Xie fell into deep thought, she had heard a lot of gossip about Jia Nidao recently, but she believed that she believed that Jia Nidao was a person.

A person who is even optimistic about Song Lizong and the empress dowager of the previous dynasty, how bad can he be? And he is still the uncle of the previous country.

So at this moment, Empress Dowager Xie had completely chosen to believe in Jia Nidao, all of this was just made by Song Duzong, an unknown person.

If it weren't for him, how could the eight million generals of the Southern Song Dynasty be reduced by half at this moment, if it weren't for him, the Yuan army would dare to enter the territory of the Great Song Dynasty now?

She didn't want to be okay with this, but when she thought of it, she was angry in her heart, and simply walked to the study again, she thought that Song Duzong would be fighting crickets again.

At this moment, in the south study, Song Duzong gathered together with several adults, he sat in a high position, and several adults below also sat on both sides.

"Ladies and gentlemen, how happened to the fact that I was going to recruit 300,000 literati students before? Have all these test papers been handed over to you by the states below, the prefectures and counties?"

A minister said: "Back to the emperor, these test papers have been submitted, and they have now been handed over to the palace etiquette department, but because the three three books have been beheaded, the matter has been delayed."

There are also humanitarians: "Your Majesty, do I want to take all these test papers from the previous Lord Wang, and then review them all together?"

Song Duzong has completely forgotten about this matter, and it is inevitable that he is a little anxious at this moment, it has been a long time, and it is time to deal with it at this moment.

"Three Aiqing, I won't fight crickets today, after all, the Queen Mother is also strict, otherwise, I'll discuss it later, all the literati and bachelors in these test papers have been selected to be officials?"

When the three of them heard it, this was unacceptable, there were millions of copies of these test papers, that is, there were millions of people, what did the Southern Song Dynasty do with so many literati and bachelors? I can't afford it.

"Your Majesty, forgive Weichen for talking too much, there are too many people, it is inevitable that there will be indiscriminate people mixed in it, it is really difficult for us to investigate, otherwise, among us, just choose a few at will, what do you think, Emperor?"

"Yes, yes, Your Majesty, Weichen and Lord Zuo are completely the same meaning, this is a scholar of the dynasty, there are so many enough, it is best not to use a bachelor, only the most loyal person to the Great Song Dynasty."

Song Duzong knew that it was reasonable, but how could a few people? is also chosen at will, so what is the need to conduct the imperial examination in the Great Song Dynasty?

"Three adults, you are waiting for this to be bad, what I want is grades, if it is an ordinary person, then what's the use of coming? Besides, the poems they make are probably not as good as mine. ”

"So the three adults, etc... You still send someone to get all these test papers, and tomorrow morning, I can explain this matter to you Aiqing. ”

Lord Zuo was in a dilemma and was a little embarrassed.

"Your Majesty, if this matter is known by the Queen Mother, I'm afraid it will..."

"This is not in the way, anyway, the three Aiqing, you just do it, as for the Queen Mother, I know what to do, besides, I am the emperor, even if she is the Queen Mother, then she can't listen to the government."

The door of the study was violently kicked open, and then the Queen Mother walked in with a black face, she had heard it just now, and she had heard it all.

She didn't expect Song Duzong to continue to be obsessed, she was really confused, extremely confused.

She thought that even if the other party couldn't become a climate, as long as she forcibly impeached him after solving the crisis, Da Song would no longer have this faint king.

Empress Dowager Xie, who came in suddenly, startled Song Duzong and the three adults, and then the three immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

Empress Dowager Xie ignored them, but locked her eyes on Song Duzong, and when she stepped forward, she slapped her big mouth fiercely.

"Emperor, what did you just say? Do you dare to say it again?"

“... Queen Mother!" Song Duzong was stunned by the film, and blood flowed from the corners of his mouth. "What's wrong with you?" Empress Dowager Xie paused word by word, "Emperor, now the mourning family is going to ask you for the last sentence, you'd better repeat the sentence just now, what does it mean that the mourning family can't listen to the government?"

"If the mourning family doesn't do this, I'm afraid the entire Southern Song Dynasty will have been wiped out in your hands. Emperor, you can let the mourning family worry a little. ”

Song Duzong bowed his head and was silent, his heart was very uncomfortable, as an emperor, he had been accused enough, and now he didn't know what to do at all.

Empress Dowager Xie looked at the three ministers again, "Three Aiqing, the emperor called you here today, the mourning family does not blame you, and at the same time, I want you to transport these test papers to the outside of the study within two hours and the mourning family will be burned with a fire." ”

The three of them took the order and walked out, and Song Duzong was anxious.

"Queen Mother, this is a matter of months of hard work for the sons to select these test papers, the Queen Mother must not be confused, you know.... You have to know that you have to take a scientific expedition again, and the cost...

"You're enough." Empress Dowager Xie's voice came, very, very helpless, "Faint monarch, faint monarch, why don't you die?" Why are you still alive at this moment? Tell me, why is that?"

Song Duzong only felt that he was wronged, what was wrong with his scientific research? What's wrong with you? Did you kill your loyal ministers indiscriminately or what?

"The Queen Mother..."

"You stop me, now the mourning family doesn't want to hear you explain a word, if you continue to say one more word, the mourning family will immediately remove you, and the crown prince Zhao Xian will take the throne instead, I believe that your child is more capable than you, even if he is only three years old."

Song Duzong bowed his head and was silent, his heart was very chaotic at the moment, he didn't want to die, and he didn't want to lose the emperor's position.

The speed of the three adults was very fast, and at this moment there were already many subordinates who had brought all these scrolls outside the house, and a large number of them were written by literati students.

But there are also people who are indiscriminate.

Empress Dowager Xie walked out, and the three adults knelt down and said: "Back to the Empress Dowager, Weichen has already brought all the millions of test papers, and I hope the Empress Dowager will deal with it."

Song Duzong was very distressed to watch this scene in the house, he walked around, but he was helpless, he didn't know what to do at all.

Empress Dowager Xie couldn't bear it, and ordered her subordinates to bring torches, and then they were lit all at once, and they burned cleanly, and the fire was ignited, the smoke rose to the sky, and the fire increased greatly.

She looked at everyone, "All of you listen today, I'm here, I'm here, and today I'm going to take away Song Duzong's real power, what he says, no matter where he is, don't count, if anyone dares to disobey, it will be dealt with as a rebellion."

"This person is mediocre and incompetent, and his IQ is even lower than that of ordinary people.

"Not only does he only know how to spend time and drink every day, he only knows how to fight crickets, he never asks about state affairs, and he never investigates the corruption of officialdom, what does my Da Song want him to do?"

Song Duzong's heart in the house was cold, his whole heart was already cold, he knew that he was finished, and the emperor woke up from his dream.

Empress Dowager Xie continued outside, "You three adults, the mourning family wants you to inform you that from tomorrow Qi, the early dynasty will all go to the residence of the mourning family, and there is no need to go to the Xuande Palace.

"Wechen knows."

"Wechen takes orders."

The three adults left, and the fire burned for a long time before it was extinguished, and when the majestic wind blew, gray paper ashes flew all over the sky.

Empress Dowager Xie glanced at Song Duzong numbly, and then went to the residence.

The latter felt desolate in his heart, his body walked out of the south study, and then walked to the harem, the pressure in his heart was too great, and he needed to find the concubine and the queen to relieve him.

At this moment, Jia Rudao's team had already set off from Lin'an City, more than 10,000 people, no one could approach, they quickly left the city, and then came to thirty miles outside the city.

The countryside near Lin'an, no matter how poor it is, is much stronger than many areas, and there have been no reports of starvation to death in recent years.

On the contrary, this place is relatively wealthy, not to mention self-sufficient, and every family still has surplus food.

Jia Nidao's team grabbed food along the way, and everywhere was a loud cry, they were angry that this was a family's rations, if it was snatched away, what would the people eat?

But Jia Yidao's team was too strong, they didn't dare to resist, and even some people were beaten violently with bad faces, and their food was also looted.

In just half a day, thousands of households were robbed of food, and there was nothing left, and they cried and screamed.

But at this moment, Jia Rudao and the others sat in the woods on the side and began to eat, harvesting at least 100,000 catties of grain in half a day, which was far from enough for Empress Dowager Xie. "Vice General Miao, we still need to redouble our efforts, 100,000 catties in half a day, 200,000 catties a day, and only more than 10 million catties in two months, not enough."

Vice General Miao paid attention at this moment, "How about Jia Ye or I wait like this?" You see, it's too much trouble to search one by one, so why don't we just let these people send them over by themselves?"

Jia seems to say, this is a good idea, but it is a little difficult to operate, first of all, how to let the people send food themselves? This is a problem.

"Vice General Miao, Jia Ye, I admit what you said, but you also have to say a way, the people are not stupid, why did they send food?"

Vice General Miao thought for a while, and immediately said, "Master Jia, can we deceive them?" For example, if you just release the words, just say that the grain is a tael of silver and a catty, how many people do you say will come to sell it?"

"A pound of silver?" Jia Rudao was low for a while, and then stood up with a pat on his thigh.

"Yes, it's a good idea, I think you're right, and it's a good idea, but it's ..... Where can I get so much silver to buy? At this price, it is estimated that Song Duzong can't stand it. ”

Vice General Miao continued: "Jia Ye, think about it, we are just deceiving them, as for the silver, it's a big deal to give them a voucher when the time comes, so that they can come back to get it in the future?"

"If, with these grains, the Southern Song Dynasty defeated Kublai Khan, then all the compensation in the future will be borne by the imperial palace Song Duzong, if it is defeated, and his life is gone, what kind of silver can he talk about?"

This idea, directly ordered Jia Yidao to be shocked suddenly, clever plan, this is a good way, if this matter is successful, there is a great chance of saving enough food. "Deputy General Miao, you immediately order the soldiers to act immediately, it is estimated that the entire outside of Lin'an City is not enough, otherwise, we need to notify all the people along the road, at least hundreds of miles away."

"Hehe, these cities add up to hundreds of millions of people, even if one person provides a hundred catties of food, how many catties is that? Hehe, even if it can't last for three years, one year is always enough. ”

Vice General Miao answered, and then ran out, and he did as Jia Yidao ordered.

Early in the morning, Song Duzong had dragged his tired body back to his residence from the harem, he had been swimming in the dragon and phoenix all night, and his body was very, very weak and tired.

When he returned to the bed, he fell asleep, and he never got up again, until a eunuch stepped forward to order him to eat, and found that Song Duzong had died on the bed.

Soon, the entire palace received the news, followed by Empress Dowager Xie, who had already been disappointed in Qi Qi, and the death of Song Duzong might also make the Song Dynasty better.

The imperial doctor, the Empress Dowager Xie, and many civil and military officials had already appeared in Song Duzong's bedroom, and the imperial doctor stepped forward to check, and then informed the cause of death, which turned out to be excessive wine.

Empress Dowager Xie almost fainted, her old face was gone, and she couldn't wait to find a hole to drill into.

The entire Great Song Dynasty had already learned the news of Song Duzong's death, and unexpectedly, the whole people were applauding and cheering, as if they had encountered a great joy.

Not only that, but even the palace didn't have any big funerals, and directly buried the things hastily.

In 1274, Song Duzong, who was only in his early thirties, died, and the cause of death was excessive drinking, so the three-year-old crown prince Zhao Xian ascended the throne, and Song Gongzong.

Song Duzong's death did not deal any blow to the imperial court at all, on the contrary, only the ministers pretended to cry a few times.

Even Jia Rudao, who was still in Lin'an, did not go to the funeral at this moment, but just found an excuse to go to other places, and did not return to Lin'an until half a month later and entered the Empress Dowager Xie's bedroom.

"Wechen has seen the Queen Mother and the Emperor."

Three-year-old Song Gongzong didn't know anything, only that he was holding the thigh of the Empress Dowager Xie and constantly wrapping it, this was the youngest emperor in history, only three years old.

Empress Dowager Xie said: "Jia Aiqing is flat, now that Song Duzong is dead, the mourning family feels relieved, I don't know why, I can't be sad at all."

"Queen Mother, after the death of Emperor Song Duzong, Weichen is really going to collect food, so I hope the Queen Mother doesn't mind when he leaves."

Empress Dowager Xie was not angry, "Jia Aiqing, you are serious, although your sister Jia Guifei had a fight with the mourning family, but the mourning family does not blame your sister, Bi.... At that time, this was Song Lizong's choice.

"Hey, besides, it's been so many years, and the mourning family has become more and more nostalgic, and they have begun to miss their old people. Fruit.. If your sister Jia Guifei is still there, I don't know what kind of scene it is. ”

"Hey, people are like this, once they get old, they like to recall the past, and so is the mourning family, but people can't escape life and death after all, even if it's the emperor." "The Queen Mother... The death of Emperor Song Duzong, Weichen hopes that you will not be overly sad, because... Because that, after all, doesn't .....
