Chapter 251: The People's Attachment
Chang'an, a place of war, where people are displaced and have nothing to rely on. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info This time Zhao Shuo relied on these 7,000 military horses to resist the attack of 20,000 people of Qi State, and the soldiers finally turned the tide of the battle and annihilated the Qi army.
Such a 'great achievement' has won the praise of the people. In the troubled times, no one wants to flee all the time, be displaced all the time, and flee from place to place. Zhao Shuo's performance not only made the people of Chang'an, Shaanzhou, and Shaanzhou, who had experienced the war, join the hearts of the people, but even the people in Yan'an, Shuozhou and other regions also sang and sang. They believed that since Zhao Shuo could defend Chang'an, he would also be able to defend their hometown.
Zhao Shuo returned to Chang'an with everyone, and the officials and the people of the city went out to welcome them for thirty miles, which was not lively.
Looking at this grand scene, even Zhao Shuo couldn't believe it.
"Xiaguan and others welcome the return of the prince!" Yin Zhengpei of Chang'an Mansion led all the officials in Chang'an City to greet Zhao Shuojun and kowtowed.
"Get up!" Zhao Shuo raised his hand to everyone, then walked to Zheng Pei's side, helped him up, and pointed to the tens of thousands of people in the distance, Zhao Shuo spoke. "What's going on?"
"Lord Wang!" Zheng Pei saluted Zhao Shuo, turned around and pointed to the dozen or so people who followed behind him. "Let them say it themselves!"
Zhao Shuo took a few steps forward and came to the dozen or so people. "Fellows, you are ......"
"Lord Wang, the little people are here to welcome the prince!" An old man spoke.
Zhao Shuo said to the people. "How can this king be able to let everyone be like this."
"The prince has kept Chang'an and our homeland, and we should come to greet the prince." A middle-aged man said.
"For the sake of Chang'an, the prince fought to the death, and we could only hide at home, and I didn't help anything, so I was really ashamed to think about it." A young man in his twenties faced Zhao Shuo and knelt on the ground again. "If he still has such an opportunity in the future, Xiaomin is willing to contribute to the king's orders, even if he takes this life, he will not hesitate."
"Hey~!" Zhao Shuo took two steps and helped the young man who fell to the ground. "Hurry up, please."
After helping the young man up, Zhao Shuo bowed to the people of the Quartet, and then said loudly. "Chang'an is the land of the Great Song Dynasty, the land of this king, and your land, and the land left by my ancestors to my Chinese children.
Zhao Shuo's words made the surrounding people cheer and fall to their knees.
"The prince is a thousand years old, a thousand years old!"
I don't know who was the first to shout such a sentence, and then everyone shouted.
The shout of 'Wang Ye Chitose Chitose Chitose' resounded in the sky.
With a sense of responsibility, Zhao Shuo returned to his residence in Chang'an City. After sending Zheng Pei and other officials away, Zhao Shuo found Liu Zheng and Xuanhao.
Liu Zheng was responsible for guarding the arsenal and probing all kinds of news, and after Zhao Shuo left, he was the only fierce general in Chang'an City who led troops. These two people were both duty-conscious, so they didn't go to greet Zhao Shuo.
"Lord, we didn't go out of the city to greet the prince......" As soon as he entered the door, Xuan Xuan knelt on the ground.
Zhao Shuo raised his head slightly. "Xuanhao, when did you kid become like this? How! Do you think that this king has come to you to punish you? ”
"I ......" the announcement stopped again.
"Alright, alright, get up!" Zhao Shuo raised his hand. "I know that the defense of the city is important, and it is right not to go."
"Lord Wang!" As soon as he heard this, not only was the uproar not calm, but even Liu Zheng on the side was not calm.
"You two are really ......" Zhao Shuo pointed at Xuan, Liu Zheng and the two, with a helpless face.
"Are you two fools?" Fluttershy, who was standing next to Zhao Shuo, couldn't stand it anymore. "The prince came to you because he wanted to ask you something, not to punish you."
Hearing this, Xuan Hao and Liu Zheng raised their heads slightly and looked at Zhao Shuo.
"You two dare not go to greet you, and now you are afraid, I really don't know what you two are thinking!" At this time, Gonggong Feng couldn't stand it anymore. "If the prince wants to punish you, does he still need to find you here? What two idiots! ”
"Lord Wang, we were worried about something in the city at the time, so we didn't think too much about it......" Xuan Hao smiled awkwardly.
"The little one is also, just thinking that the arsenal can't be fine, so, although I really want to go out of the city to greet him, I finally stayed with all the soldiers at that time." Liu Zheng whispered.
"Xuanhao, this king has promoted you, you should know!" Zhao Shuo said.
"The last general has already heard about it, and the last general has thanked the prince again!" Xuan said.
"Liu Zheng, you have a lot of credit this time, but your position is relatively special, so I wronged you this time, and if I have a chance in the future, this king will think about you." Zhao Shuo said to Liu Zheng.
"Where the prince said, the small one serves the prince, it is a small honor. Besides, the little one was originally a nobody, but now that the official worships the second lieutenant, the little one is already very satisfied. Liu Zhengdao.
"Alright, don't kneel, get up!" Zhao Shuo looked at the two and raised his hand again. "This king has something to ask you!"
Knowing that Zhao Shuo was not a Xingshi to ask for guilt, the two of them also became bolder, and got up and stood aside.
"Do you know that the people went out of the city to greet them this time?" Zhao Shuo asked.
"Yes!" The two said in unison.
"What's the inside story?" Zhao Shuo asked with some apprehension. Now he wants to win the hearts and minds of the people, but it's true. He didn't want this touching scene to be arranged by someone today. In his last life, he had seen too many deceitful people in film and television dramas, and in the face of the sudden return of the people, Zhao Shuo was still a little uneasy.
"Lord Wang, when the Qi army attacked Chang'an, the people thought that we would leave if we held on, so they were very flustered. Many of them chose to take refuge. Liu Zheng thought for a while and spoke. But we not only held Chang'an, but also annihilated the 50,000 horses of the Qi army! This made the people completely impressed with us. ”
"In this world, the people want to find a place where they can live and work in peace and contentment, the prince is not afraid of strong enemies, and wins the battle, so that they can find the savior in this troubled world, so they will come out to welcome the prince. One is gratitude, and there is also the hope that the prince will continue to bless him in the future. Liu Zheng analyzed.
"In fact, the people want very little!" Xuan Xuan spoke at this time. "They just want to live in peace. As long as there is a chance, they all want to be obedient people. ”
Xuan Hao used to be a good citizen, but he was forced to go up the mountain and fall into the grass and follow Juzheng. I still have a certain say on this issue.
"The prince guarded Chang'an and saved them from the suffering of war, and it is completely normal for them to be grateful to the prince." (To be continued.) )
