Walking on the way here, the mood of the super-large general of the Great Song Xia Guogong Yide was very twisted, thinking about his subsequent situation, his face directly turned bitter melon color. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

In the winter moon, the Western Xia snow is continuous, frozen for thousands of miles, the lake is frozen, the people are inaccessible, people walk on the white vast land, if it is not for a few birds and hares from time to time, there is hardly any living thing to see.

It has been ten days since Mi Dechao and his party left the barracks until today, but fortunately, Lord Xia really wanted them to return to the Great Song Dynasty safely, and the food in the horses left behind was also sufficient, so that the group would not die of cold and starvation.

For ten days, Mi Dechao and his party hurried and finally entered the territory of the Great Song Dynasty in the evening of the same day.

After changing horses in the post station, the group kept running in the direction of Kaifeng again.

This comes and goes, and there are only a few days left in the three years of Chunhua, and the wax moon is coming.

At this time, in the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, the whole country was jubilant, very lively, everyone was preparing for the arrival of the New Year, every household slaughtered chickens and sheep, wantonly purchased all kinds of necessary things, everyone's face was full of joy, discussing all kinds of big or small things.

Most of the small things discussed by the people are short things in the family, such as firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea, etc., and the big things are the situation in Western Xia that has been stalemate for nearly two years.

The last time the military newspaper sent by Mi Dechao said that he led the army to raid one of the granaries of Western Xia, and the people were proud after hearing about it.

Now that the Great Song Dynasty has finally been ashamed, the innocent and kind people are happy, and people can be seen discussing the situation in Western Xia everywhere in teahouses, restaurants, restaurants and other places.

After Mi Dechao returned to the Great Song Dynasty, he couldn't help but become more and more anxious when he saw the ardent expectations of the people with his own eyes.

The group couldn't imagine how disappointed the people would be when the latest news of the defeat of Western Xia became known.

They hurried more and more non-stop, and two of the generals fell ill directly because they couldn't get enough rest, but they still didn't fall behind, and they had a small illness, if they didn't rush back to Kaifeng as soon as possible, I am afraid they wouldn't even be able to save their lives.

On the fifth day of the lunar month, Kaifeng City was finally in sight, and the people who had rushed all the way to Mi Dechao finally breathed a sigh of relief and rode a fast horse straight to the city gate.

The soldiers defending the city were about to intercept it, and when they saw Mi Dechao's token, they immediately let Mi Dechao and others enter the city, and then a group of defenders gathered together and discussed in a low voice.

Mi Dechao's popularity in the Great Song Dynasty is still very high, especially these city defenders, who had seen him at the city gate before Mi Dechao's westward expedition, so they recognized him immediately.

What the soldiers were puzzled about was that Mi Dechao was not in Western Xia? Why are you back now? And it's such a mess?

Could it be that something happened to Western Xia?

Since some soldiers recognized Mi Dechao, there were so many people in Kaifeng City, and there were naturally not a few people who recognized them, and when Mi Dechao and his party went straight to the palace, many people had heard that they had returned, and some of them were officials.

Good guy, the officials with a dog's nose have speculated about the situation in Western Xia, and many people feel that Mi Dechao is afraid that he will be in trouble again this time.

The reason why it is said that it is a trouble, it is because in the battle between the Great Song Dynasty and the Western Xia, they have always had the upper hand, and at this time, Yi Dechao came back, and it was definitely not defeated on the frontal battlefield, but other changes.

I have to say that no matter what era it is, those who are officials will always be the smartest group.

At this time, although many officials in Kaifeng Prefecture did not know what happened in Western Xia, they had already guessed what had happened.

Zhao Guangyi, as Mi Dechao's top boss, also knew Mi Dechao very well, and when he heard that Mi Dechao and his party were kneeling outside the palace to ask for an audience, he immediately realized that something had happened in Xixia.

At that moment, Zhao Guangyi hurriedly let Yi Dechao in, and when he saw the gray appearance of their group, his heart suddenly 'chuckled'.

"What happened?" Zhao Guangyi asked with a cold face.

Mi Dechao shrank his head, but in the end, he still told the story of Western Xia in 1510.

It's not that he doesn't want to hide it, but Zhao Guangyi will know about it sooner or later, and concealing it won't work at all.

After Zhao Guangyi listened to Yi Dechao's narration, his face had directly turned into the color of pig liver, red and black, black and purple, which was extremely exciting.

"Come on, drag this waste out for me and cut it down." After a while, Zhao Guangyi seemed to have made up his mind and said angrily.

Immediately, the forbidden army came in on the left and right, and they were about to drag out of the group under the pressure of Mi Dechao and his party, which frightened Mi Dechao and his party to become more and more pale.

"Your Majesty, please listen to the words of the criminal minister." Mi Dechao's face was already in a cold sweat, and he shouted.

Zhao Guangyi waved his hand directly: "What do you say, the soldiers, horses, grain and grass that I have painstakingly accumulated for several years have been consumed by you, and the Great Song Dynasty has been defeated by the Western Xia, which has made me lose face, and it will be difficult for you to atone for your sins even if you die." ”

Mi Dechao kowtowed like pounding garlic and begged for mercy: "Your Majesty, the sinner knows that he is wrong, and the sinner knows that he is wrong, please forgive the emperor!" ”

Ignoring his pleas for mercy, Zhao Guangyi said impatiently to the forbidden army: "What are you doing in a daze, drag it out." ”

The forbidden army no longer stayed, and dragged Yi Dechao out, as if pulling a dead dog.

Mi Dechao was unwilling, and suddenly shouted: "Your Majesty, you are left with only one henchman in the Great Song Dynasty army, if I die, who will you rely on to control the military in the future?" We must prevent the recurrence of the 'Chenqiao Incident'! ”

Hearing this, Zhao Guangyi, who was furious, suddenly paused, staring at Yi Dechao's eyes full of anger, but in the end he still waved back the forbidden army.

Sitting on the dragon chair, Zhao Guangyi thought for a long time, and then said tiredly: "Spread the decree, since the Duke of Xia Guo Dechao went to the west, although he has repeatedly made meritorious contributions, he was framed by traitors, resulting in the loss of Western Xia, and the 50,000 army was wiped out. ”

"Thank you for the emperor's grace not to kill." Mi Dechao and the others were overjoyed, and hurriedly knelt down to thank them.

"Wait for yourself."

After Zhao Guangyi finished speaking, he waved his hand, signaled them to retreat, and then returned to the harem, not knowing what they were thinking.

After coming out of the palace, Mi Dechao and the others were already sweating, soaked their underwear, and after glancing at each other, they returned to the mansion one after another, closing the door tightly, and actually planned to close the door to thank the guests.

In fact, this is exactly what Mi Dechao ordered before entering the city, Mi Dechao knows Zhao Guangyi very well, and knows that if he really wants to pardon himself and others, he will definitely anger the civil officials, and at that time, Zhao Guangyi will naturally not take the blame for Mi Dechao and them, so the best way for Mi Dechao and the others to return to the house is to close the door and wait until the limelight has passed.
