Zhang Xian saw that the eunuch Wang Huaien was frightened by himself, stopped and said:

"Princess, thank you very much for coming to announce the decree, if the official remembers well, the emperor's ministers and ministers communicate privately, it is a capital crime that can no longer be killed, what the prince said today, the official should have forgotten, but if he hears these words in the future, the official can't guarantee that this mouth is not closed."

"You, you, you ......"

Wang Huaien didn't expect that this Zhang Xian would just let go of the benefits at his fingertips, and even threatened himself to fornicate with foreign ministers, which was not only a slap in the face, but also a slap in the face of Prime Minister Jia Taishi! I thought that this time, I would have to get a thousand taels of silver, but I didn't expect that when I encountered such a goods that didn't buy oil and salt, Wang Huaien, who was angry, stammered, and Wang Huaien flicked his sleeves and walked out angrily.

In a moment, the county order and Li Tingzhi ran in, especially the county order, his face was already pale, and he said tremblingly:

"Commander Zhang, my ancestor, what the hell is going on? Why is the prince so angry? We don't want the fame to fly again, then it's a blind toss! ”

Zhang Xian saw that Li Tingzhi had an indifferent attitude, and said in his heart, he was worthy of being a big man in history, and with this determination, even if the county order was an official position, it would be dwarfed. Zhang Xian did not shy away from it, and directly told the county magistrate and Li Tingzhi what had just happened, Li Tingzhi nodded with satisfaction, and cast an affirmative look at Zhang Xian with a smile. All that was left was the county official who opened his mouth wide and widened his eyes, and was on the spot, this county order has begun to seriously doubt whether this Zhang Xian is sick in the brain, and he can't do a good thing with his own money, but it is within easy reach for Zhang Xian, and he will even push it out?

Zhang Xian and Li Tingzhi dropped the stunned county order, and the two went out to the county hall, Li Tingzhi smiled and said:

"Commander Zhang, if you offend Master Jia, you may not be able to keep your good future, but this official has been promoted by one level and has become the prince and young guard, take a walk, this official is stained today, I wonder if Lord Zhang is willing to conspire with the old man's mansion to get drunk?"

"Lord Li is too polite, he can have a good time with Lord Li, and the lower officials naturally can't ask for it, everything is respectful!"

Zhang Xian is not polite, the last time Li Tingzhi handed over the letter to him, he has not yet figured out the reason, and he will just ask about this opportunity.

Zhang Xian came to Li Tingzhi's mansion for the first time, it was not as grand as he imagined, but it was also very clean and tidy, and the pavilions and pavilions also had an obvious Jiangnan atmosphere, Zhang Xian couldn't help but say:

"Si is a burrow, but I am Dexin! The pavilions and pavilions of Lord Li's mansion are scattered, and the weeping willows by the lake reflect the rockery and flowing water, which is really very elegant! ”

Li Tingzhi saw Zhang Xian praising his mansion, and he was naturally very happy, this Li Tingzhi had a bright and upright life, loyal to the country, and his only hobby was this Jiangnan pavilion, and when he met his bosom friend today, he chatted with Zhang Xian and said:

"The old man can see that Master Zhang is a hidden dragon in the abyss, not a thing in the pool, what he does today, don't look at the big loss in front of him, if he survives, why not worry about leaving a name in history in the future! By the way, do you know who gave you the letter to the old man? ”

"The younger generation really doesn't know, and I ask the seniors to tell one or two, and if you receive the grace of dripping water, you should repay it with a spring!"

Zhang Xian made a gesture at Li Tingzhi and said sincerely, but he didn't expect Li Tingzhi to laugh after hearing it:

"Hahaha, your junior is really smart, we have become a senior and a junior as soon as we change our mouth, but the old man is very optimistic about you, being your senior, the old man can be regarded as having a light on his face! Now the old man also told him bluntly, the previous letter was handed over to you by Jiang Yongcheng, the grandson of Master Jiang Wanli, who is also the governor of the Privy Council. Jiang Yongcheng said that on his way back, he encountered a group of Song soldiers intercepting and killing a group of Song soldiers, which was a letter found on the corpse, so he asked the official to pass it on to you.

At that time, the old man knew that you had a lot of connections with Jiang Wanli's family, so he reminded you that first, I don't want Brother Zhang to go the wrong way, and secondly, we should be more wary of villains. ”

After Li Tingzhi finished speaking, he took a long breath of talk, and then said:

"Today's government is in the hands of the traitorous minister Jia Nidao, if this Jia Nidao is just greedy for money, the problem is that after Jia Nidao is in power, he is a very popular minister, and he vigorously promotes the traitor Zhang, and makes peace with the Mengyuan Tartars, so that the territory is shrinking day by day, and the country is in danger. Seeing that it was difficult to shake Jia Nidao in the court, Lord Jiang had all his military and political propositions vetoed by Jia Nidao, and he had repeatedly asked to return to his hometown. But after all, Lord Jiang's prestige was there, and the emperor had great trust in Lord Jiang's knowledge and talents, Jia Rudao didn't dare to put Lord Jiang to death for a while. Now there are only a few ministers in the imperial court who are struggling to support the crisis, and the state affairs are difficult! ”

Zhang Xian saw Li Tingzhi's lonely expression, and couldn't bear it, and said:

"Seniors don't need to worry too much, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain! Dare to ask your Excellency, is the DPRK and China divided into two factions now? ”

"Hehe, if you want to talk about these two factions, the first faction is, of course, Jia Nidao, Marshal Lu Wende, and the right squire Lang Liumengyan, these two are Jia Nidao's hardcore henchmen, especially Lu Wende almost led the main soldiers and horses of my Great Song Dynasty to garrison Xiangyang, Jia Nidao almost did whatever he wanted; As for the other faction, it is Jiang Wanli Jiang! ”

Li Tingzhi crossed his steps and said to Zhang Xian. Zhang Xian suddenly thought of Wen Tianxiang, Lu Xiufu, and Zhang Shijie, the three heroes of the late Song Dynasty, and since he crossed over, he had never heard of these people, so he said:

"Seniors, after all, evil does not prevail over good, even if Jia Rudao and these people gain momentum for a while, they will be stinking for 10,000 years. By the way, I want to ask my seniors, Wen Tianxiang, Lu Xiufu, and Zhang Shijie, I don't know if my predecessors can know each other? ”

"Little Brother Zhang, do you know these three people?"

Li Tingzhi heard Zhang Xian ask, and asked suspiciously, Zhang Xian suddenly reacted, this late Song Dynasty Sanjie was a character who gradually emerged when he arrived in Xiangyang City, and now he is likely to be just a nobody, and he suddenly said that the three heroes of the late Song Dynasty, of course Li Tingzhi didn't know why, so Zhang Xian immediately explained:

"Oh, it's such a senior, the younger generation is also a scholar, I heard that Wen Tianxiang and Lu Xiufu are both Jinshi, Zhang Shijie is strong in martial arts, they are all people admired by the younger generation, I just hate not to see each other! Presumably, the predecessors were well-informed and often walked around the imperial court, so they took the liberty to ask. ”

"Hahaha, I see, it's not a secret, the old man Wen Tianxiang knows that Bao You was the first in the fourth year of Jinshi, and it was really beautiful at that time, but Wen Tianxiang is the same as you, he is unwilling to bend his knees to Jia Yidao and bribe, with the respect of the champion, he only makes up for the Cheng Shilang and the judge of the Ning Navy Jiedu, and there is no little brother, you, the commander of the Wurui Army, have great power; However, the most coincidental thing is that the little brother Lu Xiufu Lu Junshi you said is the old man's guest! Lu Xiufu is capable, calm, and extremely talented, and has been following the old man for more than three years; As for Zhang Shijie mentioned by the little brother, the old man had never heard of this person, so he had no way to tell him. ”

After Li Tingzhi finished speaking, Zhang Xian was surprised, "Huh? With a sigh, he said excitedly:

"Oops, I didn't expect Lu Xiufu Lu senior to be the shogunate under his senior, that's great, if you have time, I hope you can introduce it!"

"Little brother, look at it, this person's fate is such a coincidence, originally the old man arranged for Lu Xiufu to accompany him today, at this time, it is estimated that Lu Xiufu is already waiting at the wine table! Let's go, we'll go now, hahahaha....."

Li Tingzhi laughed and walked in front, took Zhang Xian around the two pavilions, and arrived at a large room, in which the screen was horizontal, painting ink landscapes, and there was a table of eight immortals in the middle, the table was already full of wine and meat, and there was a thin man sitting next to him, dressed in a gray and white robe, looking extremely elegant, and when he saw Li Tingzhi and Zhang Xian coming in, he just got up and hugged his fists, and said:

"According to the requirements of the adults, the students have set up the banquet, and the distinguished guests are invited to take their seats!"

Zhang Xian looked at this person, and said in his heart, this should be Lu Xiufu, if it is really a virtuous person, there are not many words, even the promotion of his own lord to the crown prince Shaobao, there is no word of congratulations, it is really a bit of a pity to say like gold, who would have thought that this unknown person now will leave a name in history in the future, and establish Haoran righteousness between heaven and earth. When Lu Xiufu still jumped into the sea to die with the eight-year-old little emperor Zhao Yu on his back, more than 100,000 soldiers and civilians also threw themselves into the sea to be martyred, preferring to die rather than surrender. After this war, China completely fell to foreign tribes for the first time in history, which made Zhang Xian feel embarrassed.

However, for Zhang Xian, what he admires is Lu Xiufu's iron bones and national integrity, rather than Lu Xiufu's ability. To put it bluntly, the three heroes at the end of the Song Dynasty, if you want to say that the military and political abilities are all ordinary, the civil cannot be safe, the military cannot determine the country, including the same is true of Wen Tianxiang, who is one person through the ages. In the face of the attack of the Tartars, they were defeated again and again, especially Lu Xiufu and Zhang Shijie in the Battle of Yashan, and also made serious command mistakes, so that the whole army was annihilated, and I had no choice but to do so, I am more than 100,000 loyal and good people, accompanied by Lu Xiufu and the little emperor without hesitation, threw themselves into the sea and martyred the country, sacrificing their lives for righteousness! Throughout the 5,000-year history of China, there has never been a dynasty that has been so deeply popular with the people, even if the traitorous ministers were in power before, causing chaos to the dynasty, but the Great Song Dynasty was extremely lenient to the people of the world, and was absolutely supported by the scholar class and the landlord class, so that hundreds of thousands of ordinary people did not hesitate to accompany the last dynasty to take righteousness with death! .

Zhang Xian, who came through the crossing, knew that the Battle of Yashan was a large-scale naval battle in ancient Chinese military history, and it occupied an important position in the history of Chinese naval warfare. And Wen Tianxiang, Zhang Shijie, Lu Xiufu and others resisted the invasion of foreign invasion of the anti-Yuan war in the history of history, their resolute struggle forced Kublai Khan to a certain extent to change the barbaric slaughter policy, you must know that Kublai Khan's iron cavalry to Europe, slaughtered thousands of cities, only from the Yashan naval battle, Kublai Khan in the Central Plains, there is no large-scale bloody massacre.

From a tactical point of view, Zhang Shijie, Lu Xiufu, and others were improperly deployed, and they bore unshirkable responsibility for the failure of the battle, but the national integrity they showed in a desperate situation and the courage to do what they knew they could not do cannot but be admired. These two people, one literate and one martial, were the mainstays who played a key role in the wandering little court. Although the Southern Song Dynasty was overthrown, it was so tragic and heroic, so festive and fierce, the warriors faced foreign invasion and oppression, desperately resisted, and bravely sacrificed themselves for the survival of the nation, self-esteem, and self-defense, without hesitation, shining with the patriotic "Yashan spirit", that is, the spirit of the Chinese nation. The spirit of Yashan, the righteousness of the Spring and Autumn Period, inspires future generations.

Zhang Xian remembered what the late Song Dynasty poet Lin Jingxi said:

Zichen Yellow Pavilion is a common ship, and the sea air is dim and the sun and the moon are biased. There is no place to go on the flat land, and Dan's heart is still in the middle of the year. There is no water in the belly of the fish, and the dragon must go straight to the sky. The version of the pure minister is like this, and the eternal fragrance is even more unprecedented.

Just when Zhang Xian's fugue was too empty, Li Tingzhi said with a smile:

"Come on, little brother Zhang, let me introduce you, this is the Lu Xiufu Lu Junshi you just talked about! Junshi, this is the recently famous county lieutenant Zhang Xian Zhang in Yangzhou City, oh no, now he is the commander of the Wu Rui Army appointed by the emperor himself. Both of you are young talents, the old man is a favor, you get to know each other! ”
