Heavy snow is falling in Guanshan, and it is also unusually cold in Jiangnan at the moment!

In front of a huge mansion in the south of Lin'an Mansion, a minister wearing a Zhengyipin court dress was standing there! Countless servants around him followed the minister!

This minister feels unusually "upright", and he is standing quietly at the moment!

After a long while, the main entrance of the house opened, and an old man in his seventies walked out of it!

"Lord Qin, why did you come here in person?" The seventy-year-old man said with a look of surprise on his face.

"Mr. Yang is a Confucian family, well-known in the world! Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, so I naturally want to pay a New Year's greeting to Mr. Yang! The minister of the first grade bowed and saluted, and said.

"Hurry, hurry! Come in! The seventy-year-old man was overjoyed and said.

At that moment, the minister who was a good product followed the old man into the house! This mansion is magnificent, full of servants, and countless beautiful maids! The minister of Zhengyipin didn't even look at these maids, but the eyes of the seventy-year-old man kept looking back and forth, showing a hint of confusion from time to time!

The plum blossoms in the yard are already in full bloom, and they are incomparably beautiful!

The old man invited the minister into the main house, and it was unusually warm! Turns out there's a stove burning! The window is slightly open, and the aroma of plum blossoms outside continues to waft in, which is refreshing!

Two sixteen or seventeen-year-old girls walked in with hot tea and put it on the table! When the maid retreated, the old man also touched the buttocks of a maid, with a lewd smile on his face, not to mention it!

The old man was so obscene, but the face of the minister did not change at all, as if he turned a blind eye! For this old man, he despised in his heart, but he always had a respectful look on his face!

"Lord Qin, it's been more than a year since you returned to China?" The old man said.

"yes, it's been more than a year!" The minister nodded and said.

"Last year, you offered your Majesty's plan, united with the Jurchens, attacked Guanshan, and defeated the Xuanwu puppet monarch, which is well-known in the world! For you, Lord Qin, I also admire you very much! The old man said.

"Qin doesn't dare to be!" The minister said hurriedly.

"But why did you come back from the Guanshan area in June last year? You should keep staying there and keep commanding the battle! The old man said.

"The situation in the DPRK and China is complicated, Qin was framed by a traitor and had to return!" The minister said.

"I understand that, too! Some people in the DPRK are really unbearable! The old man nodded and said.

"Mr. Yang, I am here today, in addition to giving you New Year's greetings, I have another important thing to invite!" The minister said.

"What's the matter? Go ahead! The old man said.

At this moment, the old man was already secretly frowning, he thought to himself that if this thing would offend others, he would definitely not do it!

"Mr. Yang, that's right, Mr. Mingdao and Mr. Yichuan are well-known in the world, and they are Confucian saints! I want to persuade Your Majesty to compile the testaments, anthologies, and scriptures of the two gentlemen into a book and send them to Taixue, which will be a must-learn subject for Taixue in the future! In addition, in the future, the imperial examination can also be used as the topic of the words of the two gentlemen! I want to ask Mr. Yang to join me in persuading Your Majesty, I wonder if Mr. Yang can agree? The minister said.

"Ahh The old man stayed there all at once!

Mr. Ming Dao and Mr. Yi Chuan are the famous Cheng Hao and Cheng Yi in history, one of the founders of Confucianism! However, although science has now become the mainstream of Confucianism, before Zhu Xi, science has not been officially recognized! Science has not yet officially entered the Taixue, and the imperial examination will not be biased towards science! However, according to the minister, if the emperor agreed to his request, he was afraid that Lixue would immediately become officially recognized as the Confucian orthodoxy!

"I wonder if Mr. Yang can agree?" The minister said again.

"This ...... Naturally, I have to say yes! The old man's face flushed with excitement, and his voice trembled.

"It's just that there is another difficulty in this, although Qin is now the deputy minister, he was framed! Qin's words, I'm afraid that His Majesty may not listen! The minister said.

"This ...... You and I combined...... "The old man said.

"You and I are just afraid that it won't work together!" The minister said again.

"So what?" The old man said.

"I'm afraid I need the help of the Confucians in Jiangnan!" The minister said again!

The two of them discussed in the room for a long time! In addition to this incident, other important matters were discussed! When the minister left, the old man was still excited, and now the old man asked people to contact the well-known Confucian in Lin'an City!

In the middle of the night on this day, the old man wrote a letter together with more than a dozen Confucians in Lin'an City, impeaching Prime Minister Wang Boyan, Lin'an Prefect Huang Qianshan for abandoning political affairs, embezzling gold and silver, forcibly occupying people's daughters and dozens of other crimes! After that, the old man sent people to contact other Jiangnan Confucians overnight, preparing to impeach Wang Boyan and Huang Qianshan in the name of the entire Jiangnan Confucian community! In front of all the great Confucians in Jiangnan, even Emperor Jianyan Zhao Gou must make concessions! Zhao Gou also did not have the courage to contend with the entire Confucian academic community.

The night is already dark, and thousands of miles away in the Five Kingdoms City, it is unusually desolate and unusually cold!

This is a very small city in the north, there are only more than 1,000 people in the city, and most of them are Jurchen soldiers, these Jurchen soldiers are lying on the hot kang, and they have already fallen asleep!

Except for these Jurchen soldiers, the rest of the people here are all former monarchs and ministers of the Northern Song Dynasty!

The famous Song Huizong and Song Qinzong in history are all in these five cities at this moment!

It's a pity that they don't have the treatment of Jurchen soldiers! The Jurchen soldiers could lie on the hot kang, but they could only lie on the cold ground!

The house they live in is also very dilapidated, and the cold wind is blowing outside! The temperature here is unusually cold, especially in ancient times, the temperature here has reached minus 50 degrees!

Song Huizong's body trembled, and he couldn't sleep at all!

When he was in Kaifeng, although he was already in his forties, he was well maintained and looked not much different from a young man! It is now the fifth year of Xuanwu, and in the past five years, he has looked extremely old, his hair is all white, his face is full of wrinkles, and he coughs from time to time! If history hadn't changed, he would have died of illness in four years!

In addition to Song Huizong, there were several eunuchs in the room, and these eunuchs were also trembling and couldn't sleep!

"Go and call the Emperor!" Song Huizong really couldn't sleep, so he said now.

The emperor he said was naturally his son Song Qinzong, and after Song Qinzong ascended the throne that day, he was already the emperor!

Song Qinzong was in a room in the southeast corner at the moment, and he and several of the original ministers of the court and the central government were huddled together to keep each other warm! However, even so, he couldn't sleep!

The eunuch came, and then Song Qinzong followed the eunuch to Song Huizong's room!

"Son-in-law, see father!" Even in the Five Kingdoms City, even if it is a puppet, Song Qinzong's etiquette has not been lost at all!

"The Emperor is flat! I can't sleep as a father, so I'm going to talk to you! Song Hui Zong said.

"Father!" Song Qinzong let out a long sigh, feeling bitter in his heart.

"When do you think our days like this will be the end?" Song Huizong said.

"I heard that the ninth brother has ascended the throne in Jiangnan, and the ninth brother may be able to rescue us back in the future!" Song Qin Zongdao.

"This morning, I heard those Jin soldiers talk about a Xuanwu Emperor! It seems that there are now two Great Song Emperors in the south! Song Hui Zong said.

"Huh? Two Great Song Emperors? How is this possible? Song Qinzong said in disbelief.

The children of the royal family have all gone to the north, and there is no one else except Zhao Gou! He doesn't know who will be able to ascend the throne?

"I wanted to ask those Jin soldiers, but I didn't dare, I asked the eunuchs to ask, that Emperor Xuanwu seems to be Chen Er!" Song Huizong said.

"What?" Song Qinzong stayed there, and after a while, said, "Isn't Chen Er already dead in the war?" ”

On that day, Zhao Chen used Xiao San'er as a stand-in, and he escaped by himself, and this matter is already known to the world! However, Song Huizong and Song Qinzong were locked up in these five kingdom cities, but they knew all about these news!

"Chen Er seems to be alive! Moreover, he also defeated the Golden Soldiers! Song Hui Zong said.

"This ...... This...... It's really immortal, my great song! It's a pity that the queen is dead! Chen Er, he is now a motherless person! It's all my fault, I can't stand them! Song Qinzong suddenly knelt on the ground, hid his face and cried!

Song Huizong also hid his face and cried! They have been locked up here for five years and have suffered for five years, and in the past five years, they have naturally reflected on their previous actions, and they have long regretted it in their hearts! Whether it is Hua Shigang or the appointment of traitorous ministers, they all regret it to the extreme! They even secretly swore that if they could return to the Central Plains, they would never be like before!

"But now there are two emperors in the Great Song Dynasty? How good is that? After a long while, Song Qinzong said.

"Chen Er is the eldest son of the royal family, the crown prince in the name of the rightful one, and it is natural for him to inherit the throne! It's your ninth brother, he is just a vassal king, and he should assist Chen Er, how can he ascend the throne without authorization? Now it seems that he is also a rebel and thief! Song Hui Zong said.

Song Qinzong nodded in agreement! Originally, if his son was dead, he would naturally support Zhao Gou's ascension to the throne, but his son was still alive, how could he support Zhao Gou's ascension to the throne?

"Is the little junior okay now?" Song Huizong said again.

"He's okay, I've taken him as a righteous son! Change your name to Zhao San! Song Qin Zong said.

He thought that his son was dead, so he accepted the same looking junior as his adopted son, just to talk about lovesickness!

"That's fine! Today, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, I still have two steamed buns hidden here, you go and call him too, and our grandfather and grandson will have a New Year! Song Hui Zong said.

After a while, Xiao San'er also walked in, the three of them cried and ate steamed buns, and finally the three of them hugged each other to resist the cold, and slowly the three of them finally fell asleep!

******

At this moment, in the far northwest, there is also heavy snow here!

There are mountains everywhere, and on top of one of them, a girl in white is standing there!

The cold wind blew, and her clothes kept swinging! She looked as if she was enjoying the cold wind!

Not long after, a nun dressed in a silk cloak came behind her!

"Master, I'm about to go south!" Hearing the voice behind her, the girl said slowly.

The cold wind was howling, but the girl's voice clearly reached the ears of the clothed man.

"The rivers and lakes are sinister, take care!" Nun Dao.

"Master, this time you go down the mountain, do you really want to help Emperor Jianyan?" The girl said again.

"It's nature! Emperor Jianyan is the king of the mandate of heaven, and I have always been sent to assist the king, so naturally I should help him! "Nun Dao.

"Got it!" The girl nodded.

"And this picture is also going to be sent to Emperor Jianyan for Emperor Jianyan's use!" The nun said again.

She handed a picture to the girl, and the girl took it and hid it closely! Then she turned and bowed to the clothed man, and then strode down the mountain!
