Chapter 137: The Storm and the Storm (4)

The Yandi Rebellion is already unimaginable, the disaster of the Great Liao is at the moment, it is a bit far-fetched to say that it is the Song people who are making trouble, even if the Great Song Dynasty is a Northern Expedition of 200,000 troops, it has just crossed the Baigou River and was beaten back, and the fundamental enemy of the Great Liao is the north.

Jurchen is the mortal enemy of the Great Liao, and its Liao State is also moved by the Great Liao, with a collapsed situation, it is foreseeable that even if the Great Song Dynasty sits on the mountain to watch the tiger fight, and does not interfere in such national wars, the Great Liao will not escape the end of destruction in the end.

At this time, although the entire Great Song Dynasty did not realize the threat of the Jurchens, it had always lost the sixteen states of Youyun, and the high-rise buildings were suddenly gone, and the heart of the Huanghuang Great Song Dynasty could come and go freely, so Youyun was a must-have thing for the Great Song Dynasty.

Now, although the Jurchens have not yet broken through the threshold of mediocrity, they are just digesting the benefits of the previous big victory, and after a little rectification, this Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun is not in their pocket? But I have to say that the Jurchens at this time, after all, Emperor Wanyan had just passed away, and the maritime alliance that he stayed with the Great Song Dynasty as allies was still somewhat restrictive, and the main battle faction did not have much voice.

According to the development of history, what happened later was the defeat of Tong Guan's second Northern Expedition, which made the Jurchens completely see the essence of the weakness and infighting of the Southern Dynasty, and only then did they have the ambition of the southern invasion.

Although the Yandi at this time was already dilapidated, the heroes and powers of all walks of life had already refused to listen to the dispatch of the small court of Northern Liao, and each raised troops to respect itself, waited and watched the situation, and only waited for the final overall situation to be decided, so he voted for one side.

And Zhuoyi Erzhou was initially decided, although it was said that there was no war for a while, but the streets and alleys could still smell the smell of war, even if Yang Ling was already very properly arranged, but from time to time there was still a corpse that was too seriously injured and was carried out of the city for cremation, and the whole city was desolate and desolate, but now the old breed has never cut off the supply of grain and grass, and a large number of baggage has finally been transported, and people have finally seen a glimmer of hope to live, the dead are gone, and the living are still struggling... …

……

There is a city in the further south, called Bianliang, also known as Kaifeng Prefecture, also known as Tokyo, which is the peak of the entire world civilization in this era, whether it is population, economy, development, culture, is the peak.

Here and Yandi are almost completely two extremes of existence, is the brilliant embodiment of the Han civilization, the whole Kyoto is a complete city that never sleeps, noisy all day long, the warbler sings and dances, everyone's face is hung with satisfaction, happy smile, and constantly dedicate their efforts to the city.

In the whole Bianliang City, a river runs through it, and from time to time you can see the cargo ships that come and go to transport the materials from all over the country, to Xiaoli, just this river also feeds how many Bianliang families, many people are in this morning to catch some fatty fish, send to the wine shop, in exchange for some money.

Hugh should underestimate this livelihood, and when he arrived at the restaurant, this plate of fatty fish could be sold at an excellent price, and along the banks of the river, all kinds of shops lined up one after another, and the traffic was very lively, until it stretched to one place, and then came to an abrupt end.

Looking up, this is the Great Song Dynasty Palace, after I don't know how many generations of kings, the Great Song Dynasty Palace has reached the point of extreme wealth, even if it is counted down through the ages, there are few mediocre lords, but after all, it is the top building of this era, and it naturally has its uniqueness.

This palace is more than the beginning of the founding of the country, I don't know how many times expanded, now the official Zhao Ji is more believed, self-proclaimed Taoist emperor, so it is inevitable to build a place dedicated to Taoism, not to mention that the official Zhao Ji is a greedy person, he has a very artistic atmosphere, he has a unique love for all kinds of strange flowers and stones, so it is inevitable to build a royal garden for display and viewing, you need to know that these stones are collected from all over the country, during which it cost I don't know how much manpower and material resources.

Cai Jing's husband, who had never abdicated, even bothered a lot of money for this, and levied a special tax "Huashi Gang".

The people below were expropriated for this reason, and the Fangla Rebellion was born because of this, and when it came to Zhao Ji's generation of kings, they didn't care about the expenses, not to mention the use of the Northern Expedition, and the wealth accumulated by several generations of kings was supported like flowing water.

Nowadays, the treasury is already a little stretched, in the Taoist temple, the official Zhao Ji is meditating in front of a huge Dan furnace, the Taoist has purple qi from the east, which is to the effect that the morning sun rises in the morning is the most beneficial for practice, which has also become Zhao Ji's compulsory homework.

In the whole room, I don't know how much sandalwood is burned, for a while, it is to decorate this room with the appearance of a fairy fairyland, a long-bearded old man outside the door strokes his beard, and he doesn't know what he is thinking, at this time, a eunuch is walking forward, his steps seem to be a little hurried, this chief is the official hand-picked Taoist leader Zhang Xubai, on weekdays, the official family is extremely trusting of it, every time he calls Zhang Xubai with "Zhang Hu", and does not call his name.

Zhang Xubai's knowledge is naturally outstanding, and he is not proficient in the number of arts, especially good at the doctrine of the ether faction to predict good fortune and evil, this eunuch did not dare to slack off, and asked after making a salute, "Dao Chief, the official family is still doing classes?" ”

Zhang Xubai also smiled: "Exactly, my father-in-law is in a hurry, but what happened?" ”

"It's not exactly, the miscellaneous family just came to pass on a message, and the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty are waiting for the official family to decide." This eunuch is obviously really anxious, similar to the past, some small things, he is just a person who takes charge of the matter, after all, disturbing the official family at such a time is inevitably a lot of hardship.

"I don't know what it is, can my father-in-law say a thing or two...... Zhang Xubai asked, it is not easy for the eunuch to hide such things from Zhang Xubai, after all, he disturbed the official family later, if Zhang Xubai can say a few good words, it will be a good thing.

"It's not the North ......" Before the person could finish speaking, a flat voice came from inside, "Who is outside?" Don't you know that the official family is being cleaned? ”

This eunuch was suddenly shocked, the person who opened his mouth was Liang Shicheng, who was serving beside the official, this person was also a eunuch, the official went to the palace of the school, and all the imperial orders were out of his hands, and the power was like the sky, corruption, bribery, and selling official positions were all evil, naturally no one dared to say it, and even Cai Jing's father and son had to be attached to it when they were the most beautiful, and they were even known as "hidden appearance" for a while.

PS: I feel that everything is not going well recently, I am too annoying, and I am in a hurry to write two more today, please forgive me.
