Chapter 069: Human Heart

"The imperial court has moved south, the dog emperor has run away, and no one cares about us anymore!"

"The dogs are all gone, what to do in the future! This dog's world!"

The dusk of Tokyo City became lively with the departure of the officials and ministers of the Great Song Dynasty.

Idlers and frustrated people wandered the streets drunk, shouting loudly, causing a wave of pointing, shaking and sighing from the people in the streets.

Idlers and frustrated people can also use wine to kill their sorrows, and those ordinary people can only sigh with sad faces.

There wasn't much trouble in the city of Tokyo. Zong Ze arranged properly, the sergeants were on duty in the streets, and a curfew was imposed, and after a moment of panic, the city of Tokyo returned to its old state.

In the past month since the news of the peace talks broke, those who should have left have left, and only the ordinary people who have nowhere to go remain in the city of Tokyo.

For generations, they have had children here, they have multiplied, and they live and die here. The imperial court could move south, and its own people could provide for them. When they go south, what do they use to feed their families?

Stay, the catastrophe of the first year of Jingkang has passed, and I am still afraid of these breezes and waves! It's a big deal, and if you die, it can be regarded as a leaf falling back to the roots!

Although most of the people were panicked, with a large army to protect the city, their hearts were finally a little more stable. There are also some people, because Zong Ze, a serious veteran, is sitting in Tokyo City, and they have some hope in their hearts.

Zong Ze, the famous tinkerer of the Great Song Dynasty, the new Tokyo Left-behind Division, the official military and political affairs, and the civil affairs under the government, he is now sitting in the hall, brushing his beard, without the slightest expression on his face.

The reason why he is called a tinker is because there was a leak in the Great Song Dynasty, so he appeared there, went to Hebei to serve as a Xuanfu envoy, and the new Tokyo stayed behind

The soldiers escorted the troublesome people, and the courtyard was filled. The faces of the people are different, some people don't care, some people bow their heads and don't say anything, some people are full of anger, and some people scold more than once.

"Xianggong, how to deal with these troublemakers?"

The soldier came in and asked respectfully.

"They are all good people who are loyal and courageous, and their words are formless, let them all go."

The soldier was still hesitating, and Zong Ying roared angrily: "If you don't go down quickly, do you want to disobey the military order?"

The soldiers hurried down. Zong Ze coughed violently, and Zong Ying hurriedly handed over the tea.

The most hasty resignation temple day, the teaching workshop still plays a parting song, this situation and this scene are quite similar. It's a pity that the Great Song Dynasty has great rivers and mountains.

No matter how difficult the state affairs are, even if his health is not good, this one of the few marshals of the Great Song Dynasty can only barely support it.

"Zhao Fuyin, the Jin people are cunning, they can attack at any time, the old man wants to lead the troops to fight, and the civil affairs of the people in this city depend on you and Li Tong."

Zhao Ding is the Yin of Kaifeng Mansion, and Li Ruoshui is the general judge, with the assistance of these two people, he can concentrate on defending the city, saving a lot of energy.

Although Song and Jin reached a peace agreement, with the Jurchens' disposition of taking advantage of their advantages, they would cross the Yellow River and go south at any time, not to mention Gyeonggi, even if it was Lianghuai and Jiangnan, I am afraid that they would be coveted and poisoned by the Jurchens.

Zhao Dingsu bowed and said: "Although the old man of the sect can rest assured, the affairs in the city will be handed over to the lower officials and Li Tong for judgment." Husband, you have to take care of your body. ”

Zong Ze smiled bitterly: "The old man is already in his old age, how many more years can he live?" I'm afraid that I am afraid that I will be powerless, and I can't stop the Jin people from going south. ”

Zhao Ding shook his head and said: "My husband, the land of two rivers, the people are fierce, and there are many rebels. I heard that tens of thousands of people in the old part of the Loyal and Righteous Army have already risen up. It seems that the situation of this anti-gold is not as bad as we imagined. ”

Zong Ze perked up and hurriedly asked, "Zhao Fuyin, where did you learn about this?" It's a pity that Wang Song is not there, otherwise how could the Jurchens be so arrogant. ”

Zhao Ding said with a smile: "Husband, the lower official is also hearsay. I heard that the leader of the Loyal and Righteous Army is also called Wang Song, I don't know if it's true or not?"

Zong Ze and Li Ruoshui next to him were all taken aback, and the two glanced at each other and fell silent.

It's the loyal army again, and it's Wang Song again, could it be said that Wang Song is not dead, he is dormant and waiting, and finally comes out of the mountain.

"Zhao Fuyin, can Ling Ai Thirty-six Niang be in Beijing?"

Li Ruoshui lowered his voice and asked tentatively.

"I heard that Thirty-six Niang is Wang Song's sister-in-law, I don't know where she is now and what she does for a living?"

Zong Ze also opened his eyes wide and looked at Zhao Ding.

Both of them wanted to know whether Wang Song was dead or alive.

Zhao Ding was angry in his heart, if it was passed on like this, how would his daughter marry in the future!

He sank his face and said: "The little girl followed the righteous army, killed the enemy and served the country, but what is happening now, but I, as a father, don't know." However, if Wang Songguo really survives, the little girl will also follow and fight against the Jin people. ”

Li Ruoshui smiled bitterly. Zhao Ding, the old fox, said it is equivalent to not saying it, and no one knows whether this Wang Song is the other Wang Song.

But now that the Great Song Dynasty has moved its capital, what is the point of pursuing these further.

"Li Tong's judgment, Taiyuan Mansion did not detain troops that day, resulting in the destruction of tens of thousands of loyal and righteous troops, if Wang Song is alive, aren't you afraid that he will seek revenge on you?"

Li Ruoshui's face turned red and he was speechless.

Although Zhang Shuye and Qin Hui are the masterminds, he Li Ruoshui, as the prefect of Taiyuan, is also to blame. If he insisted, Uncle Zhang probably wouldn't be so tough.

Among the ministers who went north to Taiyuan, Zhang Shuye and Qin Hui went south with the king, and Zhang Jun served as the guard of Yingtianfu in Nanjing. If Wang Song is really seeking revenge, he and Zhang Jun are afraid that it will be difficult to escape.

Wang Song's subordinates, there are countless vicious people, these people don't even care about the Jurchens, how can they care about his little general judgment.

Tens of thousands of troops died tragically, and Wang Song was killed, which became a heavy stone in his heart, although he was only an accomplice, not a mastermind.

Zong Ze looked at Li Ruoshui and said softly, breaking the embarrassment.

"I heard that Mr. Zhang celebrated the birthday of His Royal Highness, and after returning to the dynasty, he lived in a simple house, and the whole person was very decadent. He didn't expect that because of a mistake in his thoughts, he would make such a big mistake. It's already happening, so there's no need to mention it anymore. ”

Although he was also secretly upset about Wang Song's death, there was a reason for this incident after all. From the king to Du Xiong, everyone has a responsibility. As for whether one of them is contributing to the trouble, it is unknown.

"It's just a pity that tens of thousands of soldiers died in battle, and they are all the elite of my Great Song Dynasty. If reinforcements arrive and firearms are sufficient, how can there be the embarrassment of moving the capital south today. ”

Zong Ying shook her head slightly, her face full of regret.

"What about the generals in Hedong and Hebei, Taiyuan City, the Daimyo Mansion, what is the situation in these places?"

Zong Ze changed his tone and mentioned the issue of land cessation of the two rivers, which everyone was most worried about.

Several people are considered to be rare loyal and righteous people in the court, but they all hope that the soldiers can resist the order and stick to these important towns of Lianghe. The city of Tokyo is flat, and without the support of these important towns in front of the two rivers, it will fall into the siege of the Jurchens overnight.

Zhang Jun, the deputy envoy of Hedong Xuanfu, led his troops south and garrisoned Nanjing. Zhang Xian, Niu Gao and others in Taiyuan City fought several battles with Yan Zonghan's Western Route Army, and Yan Zonghan had already retired to Xinzhou. Due to the stubbornness of the loyal and righteous army in Longde Mansion, the Jin soldiers could not move south for the time being, and the battle situation in Hedong was temporarily stalemate. ”

Li Ruoshui is the former prefect of Taiyuan, and he is naturally well aware of the war in Hedong.

"As for the land of Hebei, Yue Fei will lead his troops south in the near future to assist the elder minister to protect Tokyo City. Zhang Jun, deputy envoy of Hebei Xuanfu, will

Lead the troops to Shaanxi to consolidate the flanks. After the Daimyo Mansion was ceded to the Jinren, the two men would soon go south. ”

Zong Ze nodded. The imperial court ordered to move south and cede the land of the two rivers, even if Yue Fei and Zhang Jun were unwilling to withdraw their troops, they were afraid that they would also follow the imperial court's will go south.

Zhang Jun will go to Jiangnan first, and if there is no change, he will go to Shaanxi to control the western army of all roads, so as not to be scattered and defeated by the Jin people.

It's just that, in this way, it will pity the three or four hundred thousand Song people in the city of the Daimyo's mansion. I don't know what kind of scene the Jurchens will be like after entering the city.

Although there were many officials in Lianghe who were ordered to go south, there were not a few who chose to stay behind to resist Jin. Just like Zhongshan Mansion, which has been held for the longest time, the army and the people are united, and now it has not fallen.

The most worrying thing is that the two rivers and anti-Jin armies seem to be fighting alone, and no one with prestige and knowledge of the army comes out to take the lead, and after a long time, it is inevitable that they will be annihilated by the Jin people one by one.

The state affairs are difficult, the court is weak, natural and man-made disasters are everywhere, bandits are everywhere, and the people are struggling to make a living. Thinking of the reason, everyone frowned and worried.

"Zhao Fuyin, I heard that Li Yanxian, the commander of the Shenwu Army, resigned from his official position and left Tokyo City, do you know where he went?"

Li Ruoshui seemed to be smiling, and his eyes were on Zhao Ding again.

"I know a little bit about this."

Zhao Ding did not hide it and opened the chatterbox. The two sides fought outside the prison in Dali Temple, each knew it, Zhang Heng and the two escaped, and the matter was over.

"Your Majesty has ordered the release of Zhang Heng and Wang Lun of the Loyal and Righteous Army, who knew that someone was so bold that he secretly wanted to intercept and kill them. The cell of Dali Temple has become a killing field, which is really breathtaking. ”

Li Ruoshui's face turned red. Zhang Heng and Wang Lun were imprisoned, and they also participated in it, which added a little fire.

"Fortunately, I was secretly vigilant, so there was no major incident. After Zhang Heng and the others were released from prison, they went to Hebei with Li Yanxian, and the little girl also walked with a few people. Counting up, a few of them should have killed the enemy in Hebei against Jin. ”

Everyone shook their heads, and no one broke the casserole. Behind these despicable things are the shadows of the emperor's relatives and the prime minister, even if they know who they are, they can only stop it.

"It's just that I pity Your Highness!"

Li Ruoshui felt a little desolate. Zhao Huan treated him well and repeatedly entrusted him with important tasks. Now Zhao Huan is under house arrest, but he is powerless, and he can't even say a few words of justice.

As soon as Li Yanxian left, the generals of the Shenwu Army took two or three hundred people. These people are all the old troops of the Loyal and Righteous Army, and it goes without saying whether they are with them or not. ”

Zong Ze was shocked and quickly changed the topic. Whether Wang Song is dead or alive, I am afraid it will soon be known.

Originally, the imperial court moved south, and it had already brought many generals, but Li Yanxian took his salary from the bottom of the kettle this time, and all the middle-level backbone generals were taken away, and the defense of Tokyo City was going to be nerve-wracking.

Zong Ze thought for a moment and said to the son next to him:

"Zong Ying, the imperial court moved south, and the people of Tokyo City were panicked, and the army's morale was unstable. You urge Yue Fei and Zhang Jun again, and let them go south, there must be no mistake. ”

Zhao Ding's brows furrowed, and he was uneasy in his heart.

Lianghe now has Wang Song here, Taiyuan, Daimyo's mansion, everywhere are his old subordinates, with Wang Song, there is still hope for the great cause of Lianghe's anti-gold.

I have to remind my daughter that the barrier of the northern kingdom of the Daimyo Mansion should be handed over to the Loyal and Righteous Army and Wang Song instead of falling into the hands of the Jurchens.

Everyone in the lobby has their own concerns, and everyone is solemn.

The imperial court moved south, leaving them as shields, and everyone was related.

The Son of Heaven is mediocre, the courtiers are incorruptible and shameless, and the soldiers are slack, can it be said that this Great Song Dynasty is like this sunset sinking in the west, and there is really no future?
