The old man is the Emperor Lizong of the Southern Song Dynasty, it is not too bad to say in detail, there has been a period of diligent government, the Southern Song Dynasty under its governance, but also entered a period of prosperity, but after the destruction of Jin, because of the failure of Duanping into Luo, the Southern Song Dynasty suffered heavy losses, tens of thousands of elite soldiers died in the war, and a large number of materials were put into water, and the national strength of the Southern Song Dynasty was seriously weakened.

More importantly, Duanping's entry into Luo gave the Mongols an excuse to attack the Southern Song Dynasty, and the Mongols thus began the war against the Song Dynasty. The government and the opposition discussed the failure of the army to Henan and the serious consequences brought about by it, and in response to this situation, Li Zong had no choice but to issue an edict to review his own mistakes in order to calm people's hearts.

At this time, it was the fourth year of Baoyou, Li Zong was already an old man in his 50s, the fiasco of the Song army made him heartbroken, and the years of war made him tired of coping, which made him gradually lose the spirit of the original diligent government, neglected political affairs, indulged in the sound of dogs and horses, and a group of people who stole power and power appeared in the court and harem, and the government was very bad. is like that Ding Daquan, who climbed up at this time.

Although Li Zong has realized these and wants to take some measures to make up for it, he has no power to return to the sky, so he will go out on patrol to observe the people's feelings, and it happened that Ding Daquan's nephew robbed the people's daughter.

Saving the mother and daughter, Li Zong was also very happy in his heart, the first time he went out of the palace to meet such a thing, which made him seem to have returned to his youth, that enthusiastic era, thinking how much he wanted to do something back then, and make the Great Song Dynasty strong!

It's a pity that there doesn't seem to be much hope now, the Mongols in the north can fight at any time, the national strength of the Great Song Dynasty is also much weaker, and there is no way to compare with the Mongolian iron cavalry militarily, he has realized that it was a wrong decision to destroy the Jin in Lianmeng, the Mongols are a wolf, a wolf more terrible than the Jin country, every day there will be a lot of refugees from the north in Lin'an City, that are the people who were ravaged by the Mongolian iron cavalry and the family was ruined!

How could Emperor Lizong's heart not hurt? So when he saw that Ding Daquan's nephew actually robbed the people's daughter on the street, he was angry! The court is in danger, but many courtiers under his hands are doing things all day long that are exclusive to powering and oppressing the people, how can this not make him feel heartbroken!

However, the roots of the entire court are rotten, and Emperor Lizong himself is old and sick, and his energy is not as good as before, and he wants to govern, but he is powerless.

Of course, the people on the street didn't know that the old man in front of him was the son of heaven, and the two rescued women didn't know either.

Emperor Lizong thought for a moment, and when he saw that the two women were still kneeling and following, he said loudly: "That's it, you two get up, those villains have been beaten away by the old man's men just now, you don't have to worry." ”

When the two women heard this, they got up, and the middle-aged woman cried: "Thank you Mr. for saving me, my mother and daughter have nothing to repay, and they are willing to be slaves and servants to repay their benefactors." ”

Emperor Lizong waved his hand and said with a smile: "It is inconvenient for the old man to take you in, but the old man thinks that there should be people on this street who are willing to take you in!" ”

After speaking, Emperor Lizong glanced at the surrounding crowd, and unexpectedly found that there was a small official in the crowd of onlookers, so he said aloud in the direction of Li Kang and his son: "Is anyone willing to take in this mother and daughter?" You can rest assured, those people just now will never dare to come to find trouble! ”

After that, Emperor Lizong's eyes were fixed on Li Kang's body.

Li Kang knew that if he didn't stand up at this time, he couldn't say anything, although taking in this mother and daughter might attract the revenge of the Ding family, but he also found out that when Ding Mengzhao saw the old man just now, he saw the cat with a mouse, knowing that what the old man said was true, presumably the old man did have the energy to deter Ding Mengzhao, but he didn't recognize which old man this old man was.

Li Kang walked a few steps, came to the old man, and arched his hand: "Mr. is polite, Li is willing to pay to hire these two to work at home, but it still depends on whether these two are willing?" ”

Emperor Lizong laughed and said, "The old man still thinks that no one dares to stand up!" Okay, girls, would you like to go with this gentleman? ”

The mother and daughter, just now saw that the old man scared away those fierce and evil people, and knew that the old man must be either rich or expensive, so they wanted to follow the old man to be a subordinate, but they didn't expect that the old man would not take him in, and this life-saving grace could not be repaid. Now that someone has taken them in, they have accepted it, because Li Kang looks pretty good, he is still wearing an official uniform, and he should be a good person.

Both mother and daughter nodded their heads in agreement.

Emperor Lizong smiled and said, "Okay, the people on the earth are the relatives of the two of you, right?" Let this gentleman pay for you to bury him alive. From now on, you will do well in this gentleman's house. ”

The middle-aged woman still had tears on her face, nodded and said, "Yes, I haven't asked my benefactor yet, and my mother and daughter will repay your great kindness in the future!" ”

Emperor Lizong waved his hand and said, "A little thing is not enough to worry about!" You both fled from the north, right? Now that the Mongol Fanzi has invaded my Great Song Dynasty, there are many people like you, alas! ”

Emperor Lizong sighed, his face full of helplessness.

Li Xiang said on the side: "Old man, it seems that you are very concerned about national affairs!" Now, where did the Mongols hit? ”

Emperor Lizong smiled bitterly and said: "This little brother, it seems that you are still a patriot, but unfortunately there are not many people like you who care about state affairs!" Now the Mongols have formed several encirclements of our Great Song Dynasty, not long ago the Mongols just laid down the Dali State, and the southwest border defense is very dangerous! Although my Great Song defense is very good, it still can't withstand the iron cavalry of the Mongols, which is sad and lamentable! ”

At the mention of the Mongolian Iron Cavalry, Li Xiang couldn't help but be enthusiastic, he didn't want Mongolia to unify China, in his consciousness, the Mongolia created by Genghis Khan could not be regarded as a part of China at all! And the war of Mongolia against the Southern Song Dynasty, it was the war of aggression of Chiguoguo!

Li Xiang has always believed that the Mongolian people's deep sense of identity with China was very low in history, and the Mongols in the 13th century were the most vicious enemies of China and even many countries in Eurasia at that time! It can be said that under the trampling of the Mongolian iron hoof, I don't know how many civilizations have been destroyed. If it weren't for Mongolia, perhaps the course of China's history would have been completely different, and everything changed from the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty's occupation of the whole of China.

During the Southern Song Dynasty, China's civilization can be said to have reached a peak in history, when the GDP of the Southern Song Dynasty was equivalent to 50% of the world's, the economy was prosperous, and the culture was advanced, but the development of civilization was interrupted by the backward and barbaric Mongols. At this time, Europe was still under the dark rule of the Middle Ages, and in the decades of the Yuan Dynasty, the European Renaissance began to slowly surpass the East!

The 44-year tragic War of Resistance against Mongolia in the Southern Song Dynasty was completely a just war against aggression, and Li Xiang felt that since he had crossed over to here, he had to do something, in short, he could not let the barbaric Mongols destroy Chinese civilization! Not to mention, how many innocent people were killed in the process of the Mongol army occupying the Southern Song Dynasty!
