The latest chapter of "King Song"...
Weishui, the largest tributary of the Yellow River. The pen "Fun" Pavilion originated www.biquge.info Weizhou Bird and Mouse Mountain, which is later Weiyuan County, Gansu.
After that, it flows all the way eastward, through the canyon between the Qinling Mountains and the Liupan Mountains, flows through the Qinchuan River for 800 miles, and joins the Yellow River near Tongguan.
Because the Guanzhong Plain, through which Weishui mainly flows, was a political and economic center from the Qin and Han dynasties to the Sui and Tang dynasties. During that period, almost all of the most wonderful histories took place in the land of Guanzhong, on the banks of Weishui.
At the same time, Weishui blessed the land of Guanzhong, making the 800-mile Qinchuan a country of abundance, which was exceptionally rich. Weishui has also left the most colorful stroke in history.
By the time of the Song Dynasty, Weishui's status was not as good as before.
As for the reasons, many are also complex. First of all, from the Qin and Han dynasties to the Sui and Tang dynasties, for thousands of years, the land of Guanzhong and the Weishui basin were overdeveloped, and they were no longer as rich as they were at the beginning.
Moreover, after a series of wars and turmoil in the Tang Dynasty, such as the Anshi Rebellion, the Huangchao Uprising, and the War at the end of the Tang Dynasty, the impact on Guanzhong was very great. Especially when Zhu Wen rebelled against the Tang Dynasty, Chang'an City was unprecedentedly destroyed, thus forever losing its qualification as the imperial capital.
In the land of Guanzhong, the Weishui Basin has also declined!
Of course, there is another important reason, the lower reaches of Weishui and the Yellow River Longmen generation are seriously silted, and it is difficult for canal ships to reach Guanzhong, making transportation a big problem. You must know that the Sui and Tang dynasties built the capital of Chang'an, but they relied on the money and grain taxes in the south to feed, and the canal was as important as a lifeline.
Therefore, the five dynasties and the Great Song Dynasty directly gave up the land of Guanzhong to build the capital. Instead, the capital was built directly in Bianjing, close to Bianshui. It is directly connected to the Southeast Canal. The transportation is very convenient.
Weishui's status has plummeted. The status was replaced by Bianshui.
After the decline in status, the transportation facilities on Weishui also changed.
Both the Han and Tang dynasties had Weishui bridges, which could directly cross the river, which was very convenient. But now...... The Weishui bridge has long been missing, and the people on both sides of the Weishui River mainly rely on boats to travel between them.
There are also many ferries along the Weishui River, the most famous of which is Xianyang Ferry!
In later generations, there are eight views of Chang'an, one of which is Xianyang Gudu.
Xianyang Gudu is at the site of the former Han and Tang Dynasty Xiwei Bridge, after the bridge was abandoned. During the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, the boat was used as the bridge, and then the bridge was set up in winter and spring, and the boat was crossed in summer and autumn. Tonglong Tongshu, the voice of Chennai, all night long, is the first Dadu in Qin.
Because Weishui flows into the Yellow River at Tongguan, it happens to be where the big characters of the Yellow River are. Therefore, the north bank of Weishui in Tongguan is impassable.
From the eastern part of the Guandong to the Central Plains, you have to pass through the Tongguan Road on the south bank of Weishui. Therefore, if the merchant travelers from the northwest want to go to the east, they will cross the Weishui in the land of Guanzhong. Continue from the South Bank.
Because Xianyang Gudu is just in the northwest of Chang'an, after crossing the river. You can go to Chang'an City, which is still the first metropolis in Guanzhong, and it is a good choice for business or rest. Therefore, Xianyang Ferry naturally became the first choice and became the largest ferry port in Guanzhong.
Gyeongju is in the northwest direction of Weishui, and Han Jiang escorted Lin Zhao to Bianjing, and it is inevitable to cross Weishui. They also chose Xianyang Gudu as a matter of course.
Lin Zhao was escorted from Gyeongju, and he was safe all the way. Both Han Jiang and Lin Zhao relaxed their vigilance as a result.
Personally escorted by the Shaanxi Road Xuanfu Envoy, accompanied by the elite of the Western Army, and Su An led hundreds of soldiers of the forbidden army to escort him. In this case, there seems to be no problem with security, and no one should dare to risk the world's condemnation.
However, Lin Zhao's personal safety, especially in terms of diet, is more worrying. It is completely possible to be poisoned by someone, saying that it is a suicide in fear of crime, but Han Jiang has been careful in this regard, but there is nothing wrong.
In this way, their group came to the edge of Weishui.
The weather has entered late autumn, and Gyeongju in the northwest may have frozen, because of the blockage of Liupan Mountain, the situation at the bottom of the Weishui Valley is quite good, and the Weishui is surging and not frozen.
However, the cold wind blows, and there is still a feeling of bone-chilling.
The Weishui Bridge is long gone, and the only way to get to the other side is by ferry.
The soldiers of the forbidden army plus Han Jiang's subordinates are as many as thousands of people. It is not easy to cross the Weishui River in one go, where are there so many boats along the river? Moreover, there are many people by the Weishui, merchants waiting to cross the river, although they are officers and soldiers, they cannot be so unreasonable. Especially since it's already noon, everyone wants to cross the river as soon as possible, and there is a place to stay!
In desperation, the only way to cross the river in batches was adopted.
At any one time, about 100 soldiers crossed the river in three or four boats, and there were about twenty or thirty people in each boat. Of course, there are not only soldiers crossing the river who are boating on the river, but there are about more than a dozen boats floating on the river surface of Xianyang Ferry.
Perhaps it was the smooth ride, coupled with the busy crossing of the river, that everyone relaxed their vigilance. The first few boats had crossed the Weishui safely, but the river was not very wide and the current was not very fast, so there was little to worry about.
The forbidden army and the Xuanfu envoys who had already crossed the river were already arrayed on the opposite bank, and they had prepared for the response and defense. Seeing this situation, Han Jiang didn't pay much attention to it, and thought about waiting for the Weihe River and returning to Chang'an to rest for one night.
Immediately, Han Xuanfu boarded the ship under the protection of many servants, and Lin Zhao, another very important core figure in the team, also boarded the ship.
In order to ensure his neutrality and impartiality, Han Jiang kept Lin Zhao sitting in the prison car all the way, after all, many people were watching for thousands of miles along the way, and the slightest special move would be magnified, generating all kinds of gossip. went to Gyeongju to escort him in person, in fact, he was already protecting Lin Zhao, and now he naturally can't do it too obviously.
So I can only temporarily grieve Lin Zhao, of course, there are still conveniences that can be had. For example, three meals a day, such as windproof and cold clothes, are not missing, so Lin Zhao's life is quite good. When the night comes, there is still a chance to enter the tent and sleep well, but the freedom is restricted! What's more, with Su An taking care of him all the way, Lin Zhao's situation is already good.
In this regard, Lin Zhao was already very satisfied, after all, his current identity was a prisoner. Han Jiang came forward and saved his life, which is already good, and he is very grateful, and he fully understands Han Jiang's difficulties.
Looking at the surging water, Lin Zhao couldn't help but sigh!
Two or three months ago, I also passed through here, and it would be the envoy of the Ministry of Rites, representing the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, how high-spirited he was. But now that he has become a prisoner, the reality is so ironic that Lin Zhao can't help but laugh coldly.
Either way, no matter what! Only this once!
Lin Zhao has figured out a question these days, and his desire for power is especially strong. As long as I can get through it safely this time, I will definitely not give anyone another chance to frame me. It is necessary to seize power as much as possible, even if it was one of the most civilized periods in the history of the Northern Song Dynasty, but after all, it was still a feudal society where imperial power was supreme.
The ancient laws of survival have never changed, and power has always been paramount.
Lin Zhao, who was in the prisoner car, had extremely strong power, and was carried onto the boat with a sneer, ready to cross the Weishui.
Maybe it's because the prisoner car is very special, which arouses the curiosity of the onlookers. On the bank of Weishui, Xianyang Ferry, at this moment, there are really a lot of people who pay attention to Lin Zhao.
"That's Childe!" Jiang Leiting stood by the Weishui River, looking at the sneering man in the prisoner car, and his words couldn't help but be a little sour.
After learning the news that Lin Zhao, the fourth prince of Emperor Renzong, was unjustly imprisoned and escorted back to Bianjing. The Iron Mask Sect Master was very unassured, no matter what measures were taken to rescue him, the first and most important thing was to ensure Lin Zhao's safety.
Because Lin Zhao's identity is really too noble and special, the Iron Mask Sect Master is not worried about others. For the sake of prudence, Jiang Leiting was specially sent to personally escort Lin Zhao.
When Jiang Leiting arrived in the northwest, Han Jiang had already taken Lin Zhao across Liupan Mountain and entered the Weishui Valley.
The seed master Dao went to Han Jiang and asked him to come forward to protect him, as well as Han Jiang's position and attitude, Jiang Leiting didn't know these things. However, they all know one fact, after Han Jiang comes forward, Lin Zhao's security will be strengthened.
Indeed, along the way, Jiang Leiting and his elite have been following the team. Of course, they don't dare to get too close, otherwise it will be easy to be discovered, and if they are misunderstood or identified, the consequences will be even more unimaginable. The Iron Mask Sect Master had told him a thousand times about this matter, and Jiang Leiting did not dare to be careless.
Fortunately, there was no incident along the way, but Jiang Leiting's vigilance and attention have not weakened in the slightest. Lin Zhao's significance to them and to the Great Song Dynasty is really too great, and they can't tolerate the slightest mistake, and they can't relax for a moment.
When Han Jiang, Su An, and even Lin Zhao himself began to be careless, Jiang Leiting did not dare to take it lightly. Along the way, he was constantly on the lookout, carefully watching for all possible threats.
For example, by the Weishui River and the Xianyang Ferry, Han Jiang didn't take it to heart, but Jiang Leiting was not very relieved. Whenever there is the slightest risk, you must be careful to guard against it.
Maybe you can't get close to Protect Gongzi before, but in this ferry shared by the military and civilians, it's completely okay.
Jiang Leiting specially rented a boat, not to mention the martial arts masters, and some subordinates who were skilled in water kung fu. All gathered at the ancient ferry port, ready to accompany Lin Zhao to protect the transition.
For a long time, they finally had the opportunity to get close to Childe. Jiang Leiting saw Lin Zhao in the prisoner car from a distance, and he was so excited that he almost shed tears.
Maybe before, when they didn't meet, they still had a little doubt, was Lin Zhao the fourth prince who had been looking for twenty years? But at this moment, seeing the appearance that is very similar to that of Jinghe, where is there still the slightest suspicion!
He is the son of Jinghe Jushi and the only son of Emperor Renzong, so he decided not to let him miss the slightest! (To be continued, please search, the novel is better and updated faster!)
