On the official road to the south, hundreds of horsemen were galloping, even if the horses' hooves were already a little staggering, and even some of the horses' footsteps were floating and fell directly to the ground, this team of knights still didn't care, and they were still beating their horses and galloping.

In front of his head, a young man in a dragon robe was tied to his legs on a horse, and his upper body was lying directly on the horse's back, but his mouth was shouting: "Stop, stop, I want to vomit... ”

When an ironclad old general beside him heard this, he frowned and said: "Your Majesty, no matter how patient you are, as long as you pass Caizhou, the thieves will inevitably be chasing behind at this time, and you can only rest when you get to Tianfu, there are still some soldiers and generals in Nanjing City, and the city is also tall, and there will not be many soldiers and horses pursued by the thieves, and the city will be safe." After resting, then set off straight across the river to the south of the river, and it is truly safe. ”

Nanjing is Yingtianfu and Shangqiu.

"Liu Yanqing, hurry up and hold my horse, I really can't stand the bumps, this time the pain all over my body is unbearable, and my legs are tied to the point of being unconscious. Take a break, just take a break. ”

"For the sake of Your Majesty's safety, for the sake of the Great Song Dynasty, it is really difficult for the ministers to obey their fate. Your Majesty can bear with it any longer, just bear with it. "Where did Liu Yanqing dare to stop his horse and rest at this time. Liu Yanqing's level of fighting is not good, but the level of escaping is extremely high, and he knows that he must not stop at this time.

Naturally, there were pursuers behind him, and the first few hundred horsemen to chase him were twenty or thirty miles behind him. There are also three or four thousand knights sent by Zheng Zhi, who are also sixty or seventy miles behind the official road. Liu Yanqing could guess these things even if he didn't have scouts watching behind him.

In the city of Tokyo, Zheng Zhi personally carried the jade seal in the palace and stamped it on a holy decree, and the holy decree was issued by a fast horse and went straight to Huaixi.

Huaixi went to the southwest, and Zhao Huan fled to the southeast. The world of the Great Song Dynasty will also fall into chaos from now on, the government comes out from two places, there are two emperors in the world, and the common people may not receive much influence, but the officials in this world will be anxious and in a dilemma.

The official documents that came out of the city of Tokyo have several jade seals, the great seals of the three provinces under the door of the Shangshu Zhongshu, and the great seals of the front division of the Privy Council. There is even the emperor's personal seal, as well as the signature and seal of the chief official. Not only that, but there are also private letters from the bigwigs in Tokyo, and in the future, these bigwigs will also contact many parties and gather forces to kill the national thieves. These bigwigs are the backbone of the world.

Around Zhao Huan, there is no yamen, not even a jade seal, only his own personal seal and his own autograph.

In this way, it seems that the emperor of Tokyo Castle has the upper hand.

Out of the imperial city full of iron armor, Zheng Zhi and the seed master went straight to Tong Guan's mansion.

Wu Ze was waiting at the door early, and he had been waiting for a few hours, knowing that His Royal Highness King Yan would definitely come today. Niu Da has also been guarding the Tong Mansion with his subordinates.

Now this Tongfu, I can't think of a few days, when it is a city again, in the middle of the night, someone should come to visit with a big box.

Zheng Zhi came on horseback, everyone greeted him, Zheng Zhi turned over and dismounted, went straight to the gate, and asked, "How is Enxiang's health?" ”

Wu Ze bowed down and followed, and replied when he heard the words: "Enxiang's body has always been relatively tough, and he only pretends to be a little sick in front of his head. Although he was bullied in the Imperial Tower, he was fine. ”

Zheng Zhi nodded, and went straight to the backyard, this huge children's mansion is now extremely deserted, there are no maids and maids, only a dozen guards. Even the valuable things in this Tong's Mansion have also been emptied.

Zheng Zhi looked left and right as he walked, and his brows were furrowed, and some beautiful plants and trees in the yard had been dug up, leaving only large and small soil pits.

"Wu Ze, you go and inquire, and see which people have got the things of Tongfu, and ask them to return them themselves, even if the grass and trees are planted for a certain tree, if one dies, the family will be repaid. If someone dares to hide it privately and not return it, they will be destroyed directly. Zheng Zhi's words were very fierce, and the anger in his chest seemed to have not dissipated.

"Yes." Wu Ze nodded when he heard this, his face was happy, a good mansion, and now this dilapidated appearance makes Wu Ze, who has been in this courtyard for more than ten years, really a little angry, that is, he thinks that Zheng Zhi is extremely reasonable to do this.

Tong Guan was still in the study, but this time the door of the study was not closed, but half-hidden.

Zheng Zhi pushed the door in, and Tong Guan sat on a temporary chair, with no desk around him, only a wooden stool with a bowl of tea on it.

In front of this study, Zheng Zhi has been to many times, the screen, the books in the room, the desk, the scroll next to the case, the large porcelain bar of the Ru kiln where the scroll is placed... Everything, nothing. There is only waste paper all over the floor, and the waste paper is mostly some correspondence, which is useless to others, so it is discarded in this study.

Zheng Zhi bowed and said, "Is it good?" ”

Tong Guan picked up the tea bowl on the wooden stool, drank it well, smashed his tongue a few times, seemed to think that it tasted very good, and replied: "Everything is fine, the body is fine, and I may be able to live for some years." ”

Zheng Zhi seems to feel a kind of estrangement, which comes from his actions with Tong Guan, and also from Tong Guan's tone that is not salty or light.

"Eun Xiang, now that I'm in Tokyo, the Privy Council must not be controlled by others, I don't know if Eun Xiang is willing or not..." Zheng Zhi asked.

I saw Tong Guan waving his hand, "That's it, officialdom has been around for decades, and at such an age, it can be regarded as a good beginning and a good end to be able to watch flowers and fish at home." Now it's different, the world of contention. A certain old eunuch can't get involved. Now that you have entered Tokyo, there is no competition for you in the world, as long as you can solve the Jurchen Dajin, you can probably sit back and relax. At the beginning of the river, a certain also guessed that there would be today. The world is impermanent, Cai Jing Wang Huang, Yang Jian and Liang Shicheng, they are all gone, leaving only one person to sit and watch the sunset, which is also the afterglow of the sunset. ”

Tong Guan said this, stopped talking, suddenly smiled on his face, and said: "It's still good back then, when a certain person was not purified, at the age of sixteen or seventeen, he couldn't eat, and he was a handyman in the Yueming Building. The wine was booming, and he talked loudly with the people around him, saying that it was the fallacy of the king to change the law, and he was really high-spirited.

A few days later, when Wang Xianggong arrived in the building, he heard people talking about Bachelor Su, and in a fit of anger, he demoted Bachelor Su to Hangzhou for a sentence. When Mr. Su was leaving, he went to the building to drink, splashing ink, a bluestone flowing water map, the best in Tokyo. I still laughed when I left. A gentleman is like this, how fascinated. ”

Zheng Zhi heard Tong Guan say these unbounded memories, so he was silent, and only listened to Tong Guan.

"Alas... Later, Sima Xianggong gained power again, and a certain had entered the palace cleanly, running between the left door and the vertical arch hall, and often delivered a note to Sima Xianggong to convey the gift. At that time, Tokyo was full of party disputes, and the old and the new were repeated. But at that time, Tokyo was charming, that is, it made people yearn for it, and in a certain prison, I often dreamed of those scenes at the beginning. Dreams that don't want to wake up. The battle between the court, the discourse, the quotation of scriptures, and the argument based on reason. Those who are the princes of the palace are poetic, Bo Gu and the present, and speak bluntly. I don't know why now, the court can no longer have such a unique style. God bless Song also! ”

Tong Guan's words were hoarse, sometimes laughing and charming, sometimes sighing and shaking his head.

Zheng Zhi has never seen those peerless generations, nor has he seen much of today's court, nor does he have such a rich life insight as Tong Guan, so he can't really resonate with Tong Guan. I had to pick up a sentence: "The saint is mediocre in the court, the courtiers are flattering in the palace, and the society is sad." ”

Tong Guan looked at Zheng Zhi and laughed: "So-and-so is that flattery, that is that sadness." ”

Zheng Zhi hurriedly explained: "Enxiang is also the minister of the Great Song Dynasty Zhushi! ”

Tong Guan shook his head with a smile when he heard the words: "If it is a pillar stone, then this Great Song Dynasty is a little ridiculous." ”

Zheng Zhi hurriedly wanted to say something again. But Tong Guan said in a low voice: "If you can see the way you come, you will have nowhere to settle down." This Tokyo city is still more charming back then, but now it is only glitzy and has lost its essence. The princes of Tokyo should die without a place to be buried, and there is no place to die. ”

Zheng Zhi stopped what he was about to say, just looked at Tong Guan, speechless. Speechless, he took the old man's words.

I saw Tong Guan drink the tea in the bowl in one gulp, and said: "Zheng Zhi, you go, stay here for a few years, and bury it back to the ancestral grave." In the next life, he will no longer be a eunuch. I was a tea boy in that Yueming Building, a wife room, three or five children, and then looked at the peerless elegance of those ministers. ”

When Zheng Zhi heard this, he also felt sad in his heart, and said: "Enxiang, tomorrow the official family should make you king." The king of Guangyang County, wait for the day in the future, and crown the king of Song! ”

Zheng Zhi slightly remembered that Tong Guan was the king of Guangyang County in history.

After saying the words, Zheng Zhi looked at Tong Guan, for fear that Tong Guan would open his mouth and refuse.

But I didn't want Tong Guan to nod and said, "I'm sorry for you!" ”

Zheng Zhi bowed when he heard this, and replied: "With the merit of grace, it is more than enough to be crowned king." ”

Tong Guan laughed again, and only said: "Meritorious? The merits of the battle array are all in the generals. A certain eunuch did not kill an enemy in the battle array, and he did not come up with a strategy. has no children and no grandchildren, and the history books contain a penny, which is not in vain to go through the world. It is enough to die without regrets. ”

Tong Guan Xing may still have some obsessions after all. As a human being, there will always be some obsessions.

When Zheng Zhi and Tong Guan saw this side, they always felt that Tong Guan's words were like the words of the dying man, and they always felt gloomy and felt extremely bad, and persuaded him: "Why is Enxiang so self-deprecating, if there is no Enxiang in the northwest to plan and dispatch, how can there be a great victory in the northwest, outstanding merits, and the history books should be clear." ”

Tong Guan smiled when he heard this, and only asked, "Do you want to eat and drink tonight?" ”

Zheng Zhi nodded again and again when he heard this, "You can't eat other people's wine, but Enxiang's wine must be eaten." ”

Tong Guan smiled awkwardly, and only said: "There is no wine in a certain house, so I can only eat your wine today." ”

Zheng Zhi smiled and said busily: "Then I'll arrange it." ”

Zheng Zhi turned around and went to arrange a banquet. Even Zheng Zhi also felt in his heart that this meal of wine might be the last meal with Tong Guan.

Zheng Zhi came out of the door of the study, and Wu Ze stepped forward to say: "Your Highness, there are people outside the door who ask to see you." ”

Zheng Zhi smiled lightly when he heard this: "Who is so discerning, the war in Tokyo has not completely subsided, but someone has already found a way, it is really powerful." ”

Wu Ze opened his mouth and said: "Back to Your Highness, it's Zhu Mian!" ”
