Historians agree that the Kaiyuan era of the Tang Dynasty was the peak period of equal emphasis on cultural relics in ancient Chinese society, and that the heyday of the Tang Dynasty was also the most powerful period in ancient China, although Yue Tuo believed that the strongest dynasty in China was Qin rather than Tang, and that the Great Qin under the First Emperor was more fierce than the Tang Dynasty led by His Majesty Li Shimin and Li Longji.

But if it comes to wealth, then there is no doubt that there is no doubt that the Song Dynasty said second, and no other dynasty dared to say first, just because the Song Dynasty occupied half of the world's total economic output, it was enough to dominate the world, and the Chinese culture of the Song Dynasty was the most prosperous period of the entire Chinese country for five thousand years, and the peak of Chinese culture was definitely in the Song Dynasty.

If it is said that there is no Jin soldier to go south to break the prosperity and wealth of the Song Dynasty, perhaps, the entire world history will be changed for this, but all this has been difficult to reverse since Zhao Kuangyin and Zhao Pu set the concept of governing the Song Dynasty, and after Zhao Guangyi's two northern expeditions failed, it was completely irreversible.

Yue Flip walked alone on the bustling streets, looking at the crowds of people rubbing shoulders, looking at the small merchants and vendors who kept selling, and the shopkeepers of the big shops who went out to solicit customers, everyone seemed to be immersed in the huge inertia of one hundred and sixty years, they had long forgotten how to fight, forgot how to survive to the limit, the entire Great Song Dynasty, except for the northwest corner and combat effectiveness, the rest of the places have been completely eroded.

I bought a roasted browned roasted chicken thigh, chewing it slowly, not caring about his identity as a literati, nor caring about the strange eyes of other people, Yue Chuan just ate by himself, thinking about his own thoughts, this prosperous land, this prosperous city, this vibrant appearance, but it really made Yue Chuan reluctant to give all this to the Jin people - this is not thirty years of hard work, this is one hundred and sixty years of hard work! Return to the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms in one night!

Even worse than five generations and ten kingdoms! More tragic! And since then, the land of China, whether it is cultural, economic or military, has not been restored to the state of the Tang and Song dynasties, and the Jin soldiers went south, as if it was a huge curse, which has been shrouded in the land of China, and has not been completely lifted so far.

Yue Turn, who was immersed in his own world step by step, naturally did not feel those strange eyes, there was a more aggressive gaze, and then, the owner of this gaze, a man in black, withdrew his gaze and came to a dark alley, turning around, up and down, and then entering a dark room, and when he reappeared, he appeared in a room that was extremely luxurious.

"Master, Na Yue is walking and eating chicken legs, not caring what others think of him, he has no demeanor that a literati should have, is it worth it for the master to make such a big move? That Yue Tuo, is it a national warrior? Tan Zhen! You must know that it is a capital sin to deceive a king! This person looked at Tan Zhi who was standing aside with a more aggressive gaze.

Tan Zhi sneered, and then said to the middle-aged man who was still sitting steadily: "Master, I have to say that this Yue Liulang is indeed an informal person, but, master, the old slave has also lived for more than forty years, long past the age of knowing the destiny of heaven, over the years, have you seen fewer people?" Is there less things that have passed? This Yue Liulang is a talent that the master needs, and the old slave can really tell it. ”

The middle-aged man looked at the man in black behind him, then at Tan Zhen, showed an elegant smile, raised the wine glass with one hand, and drank it in one gulp: "Okay, okay, don't quarrel with the two of you, of course I know that you all have great songs, but, no matter whether this Yue Liulang is a national scholar or not, just with his good words, good poems and words, and those paintings, I have to see him, hahaha, such a talent, I haven't seen it for a while, those ministers in the court, hum!" ”

The man in black was still a little hesitant, frowned, and said: "Master, the old slave thinks that it is better to be cautious, this person is not very reliable, and it seems that he may make a mistake at any time, and he can't entrust it with big things." ”

Tan Zhi sneered: "Then according to the words of Commander Du, Yue Liulang, who commanded the whole army to break through Fangla's 500,000 army, has repeatedly made strange plans and trained 100,000 elite soldiers for the imperial court, but he is actually an incompetent person?" So the Great Song Dynasty can pacify the Fangla Rebellion, is it really a blessing!? ”

The man in black looked at Tan Zhi coldly: "Tan Zhen, according to your words, that Yue Liulang has a life-saving grace with you, you treat him like this, you should have made some kind of deal with him, right?" Isn't that your usual approach? Every time you go out, you have to get a lot of money back, don't you?! You think I don't know? ”

Tan Zhi restrained his smile, glanced at the middle-aged man, saw that his face was as usual, breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "Ouch, my great commander, I don't dare to say this, how can I, a eunuch who lost a battle and almost lost his life, be the opponent of you, a general who has experienced countless battles and made countless meritorious contributions?" Of course, you see people who are more accurate than me, yes, yes, yes, what you said is right, that Yue Liulang is a waste, greedy for life and afraid of death, and he can win this battle, all thanks to Zhang Ying, who has exterminated bandits, and Zhang Shuye, who has never been on the battlefield! ”

The man in black was angry, and just as he was about to speak, he saw the middle-aged man waving his hand and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, as long as the two of you meet together, you will definitely quarrel!" It's all people who come out together, so why can't they be friendly and cooperative? You are all my most trusted right-hand men, don't always quarrel, Tan Zhen, tell me, what is Liang Shicheng doing secretly? These days are always nowhere to be seen. ”

Tan Zhi opened his mouth and said: "I'm busy doing business with a big man, the price of tens of millions is worth a lot of money, I heard that it is related to military power." ”

The man in black also continued: "In recent days, the people under the old slave have always seen Cai Jing's people entering and leaving Liang Shicheng's private house, master, this matter is not ordinary!" ”

The middle-aged man smiled and said with some self-deprecation: "Oh, oops, two people who used to trust me so much actually treated me like this, you two talk about it, is there anything I am sorry for them?" Or is there too little reward that must come with the New Year's holidays, and they deserve more? For example, the treasury of the entire Great Song Dynasty? ”

Tan Zhi smiled: "They deserve death!" ”

The man in black also rarely agreed: "They deserve death!" ”

The middle-aged man waved his hand and sighed, "How did you discuss it with those wild people?" When will the troops be sent? When will you flank the Liao State and recapture Yanyun? How is Tong Guan playing in the Northwest? Did the party members retire? ”

Tan Zhi was silent, the man in black smiled proudly, and just as he was about to speak, he was interrupted again by the middle-aged man: "Forget it, it's too troublesome, let's not talk about it for the time being, let the master come, I'm a little tired, when Yue turns over, let him wait for a while, let me rest." ”

The man in black opened his mouth, but he still didn't say anything, Tan Zhi glanced at him cautiously, and it wasn't until he left first that Tan Zhi slowly retreated and went to invite the master and girl over for Emperor Huizong...... To be honest, if Tan Zhi were a man, he would definitely retreat from this, just like the man in black, but it doesn't matter, it's a pity, Tan Zhi is not a complete man anymore, he has not been a man for many years, and his senses for women seem to be biased.

But that teacher girl always reminds him of a poem, and always makes him sigh.

Miss Shishi, fortunately, you are a woman in the Qinglou, fortunately, it is my master who has taken a fancy to you, otherwise, otherwise, alas......
