In the sixth year of the Great Song Dynasty Baoyou, the Mengsong battlefield was full of storms and treacherous waves, the Sichuan Basin was fought in vain, the two Huai vicious battles were fought one after another, Jinghu and Jingxi were three policemen a day, and even the Guangnan West Road, which was originally too peaceful and stable, also came to the warning signal that Mongolia had crossed its toes into the Kou! The entire Great Song Dynasty has been stormy. And just when hundreds of people were tossing and turning in the ravines, hundreds of thousands of soldiers intersected with strong enemies, and died under the blades, the richness and prosperity of Lin'an Mansion, where the Great Song Dynasty court was located, was still not a little reduced.

This large Song Dynasty capital with Phoenix Mountain in the south and West Lake in the west can be said to be narrow and cramped to the extreme compared with the former Bianliang in Tokyo. But it is this small place that gathers no less population and wealth than Bianliang, Tokyo in the past!

Never before in history have so much wealth, so many people, so much commerce, converged in such a small area.

The prosperity here is even better than that of the center of Hangzhou seven or eight hundred years later. In this dark age of Eurasia, the Mongol iron cavalry ravaged it. This is undoubtedly the most desirable paradise on earth.

Above the Qiantang River, the trees are like clouds. The blue brick Lin'an city wall winds along the West Lake. Inside and outside the city walls, the markets are everywhere, not gathered in the tall and majestic city walls like Yangzhou, but extend beyond the city walls, and large blocks appear along several transportation channels that connect the Grand Canal and the Qiantang River. In the west of the city, around the West Lake, there are villas and manors of wealthy families. On the West Lake, the painting boat cruise ship is endless, and the sound of silk and bamboo lingers all day long. There is a lot of noise everywhere, there are crowns everywhere, and there is a peaceful scene of warblers singing and swallows dancing everywhere. It seems that the present is a prosperous era of the four seas.

The city wall of Lin'an encloses a rectangular area, and the imperial city is located in the south of the entire Lin'an City, which is the pattern of Nangong North City. Like the imperial palace in Bianliang in the Northern Song Dynasty, the area of the palace in Lin'an Xing is also not large, but it is delicate and exquisite, and it is full of the unique agility of the water town in the south of the Yangtze River.

At this time, the palace was quiet, only the sound of birds chirping in the west garden of Phoenix Mountain and the faint sound of the market drifting in. It makes the residence of this Great Song Dynasty official family a little less solemn and more popular in the folk market. It's just that the officials in the palace in this prosperous metropolis can imagine how thrilling the blood and tears of the Jin Ge Iron Horse on the battlefield of Lianghuai and the blood and tears of tens of thousands of soldiers in Bashu are!

The back garden of Miyagi, which resembles the bank of the small West Lake, is lush with trees, strange stones, pavilions and pavilions like a fairyland. A middle-aged man in his fifties, with clear eyebrows, white beard, straight-legged black gauze and a bright yellow brocade robe, strolled along the lake surrounded by everyone. While walking, he was with a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl beside him, who was born with picturesque eyebrows, snowy skin, and a drooping bun, and looked a little playful. Between the eyebrows, it is full of spoiled colors, and it can't be hidden.

This middle-aged man in his fifties is the official family of the Great Song Dynasty, the fifth generation of the king of the Southern Song Dynasty, and Zhao Yun, who was later known as Lizong. At this time, he was already fifty-five years old, if he was still prosperous in the later generations, but he was already an old man in the Southern Song Dynasty. But this old man, who has been the Son of Heaven for twenty-six years, has only one daughter, who is the princess of the ascending kingdom beside him.

Because there is only such a pearl in the palm of his hand, Emperor Lizong's love for his daughter is known to everyone in Lin'an City, just by looking at her title, she first sealed the princess of Ruiguo, and now she has added a princess who has been promoted to the country, and a princess has two titles! Of course, this is not over, Emperor Lizong has already planned, and when his daughter comes out of the cabinet, he will change her title to be the princess of Zhou and Han - Zhou and Han are both big countries, and they are naturally more noble than Rui, and the corresponding actual food (in fact, there is not much income) is also much more, and the income is also higher.

And the content of the father-daughter conversation now is rarely related to the ongoing Mongol-Song War - in the past three months, the two Huaifu Divisions have reported their successes three times, and they have even taken out the record of beheading Yeliugan, capturing Bohua and beheading nearly 20,000 prisoners. It adds a bit of joy to the upcoming first year of the celebration. The good news is in the Lin'an Palace, and it spreads quickly, and the palace maids, eunuchs, concubines, and princesses in the palace can all dance with their eyebrows and tell the last paragraph of how the former enemy soldiers bravely killed the Tartars.

“…… Young heroes, weak crowns; Yongbi Lu Bu, Zhisai Zhuge . Fierce battles to protect the river, retreat from the enemy 12 formations, bloody battles dye robes, 18 wounds, more than 400 captures. Hair stone, make thunder; In front of the Yangtze Bridge, he showed his might, blew up the captive chieftain and Liu Gan, and captured more than 8,000 thieves! Daddy, this person is really a hero, a dragon and a phoenix among people, it would be good if he was destined to see him. ”

It is the princess of Emperor Lizong's palm who is talking about Chen Dexing's heroic deeds, and I don't know when it started, what this little princess heard with her ears was how brave Chen Dexing was, how resourceful Chen Dexing was, and how Chen Dexing ...... Handsome or something like that. This lie is repeated three times is the truth, it is the truth, and it is a true thing, and as soon as a bunch of palace maids and eunuchs are called to add salt and vinegar, the little girl was immediately dazzled by the flicker, and became a fan of Chen Dexing and Chen Daying. Now talking about Chen Dexing's story, a pair of eyes are really shining, if Chen Dexing stands in front of her, I wonder if the little girl will go up and ask for an autograph or something?

"Isn't it just a martial artist? How can it be regarded as a dragon and phoenix among people? Emperor Lizong's tone was light, and he glanced at his daughter dotingly with his gray beard, "The one who is outside the Donghua Gate is the dragon and phoenix among the people!" ”

If it is about the same, Han Qi, the famous minister of the Northern Song Dynasty, once said to the famous general Di Qing that the Donghua Gate at that time referred to the Donghua Gate of the Bianliang Palace. And the Donghua Gate that Emperor Lizong is talking about now is the east gate of the Lin'an Palace, which is also a good place for Jinshi to roll names.

However, the little girl is not Di Qing, she has been spoiled since she was a child, a real little princess! Even the emperor Lao Tzu is not afraid.

"Hmph," the little girl pouted and said unconvincedly: "If there is no hero like Chen Lang, where is there a roll call outside the Donghua Gate?" ”

If this is said by others, Emperor Lizong should be furious. However, from the princess of Shengguo, the emperor just smiled faintly: "You girl is talking nonsense, this Chen Dexing is a little brave, but how many capable people are in my Great Song Dynasty?" Even without him, there will be others who will be used by me. ”

"Oh, then in the fourth year of Baoyou, where is the dragon and phoenix who is the first person outside the Donghua Gate to kill the enemy for the country now?" The little girl asked with a pout.

"The champion of Baoyou for four years is Wen Tianxiang, this is a good man!" Emperor Lizong stroked his beard, and an image of white skin as jade, clear eyebrows, and a burly figure appeared in his mind - this is Wen Tianxiang, a champion and a handsome guy! Emperor Lizong would agree with Ding Daquan's opinion and marry his palm pearl to the champion, most likely related to Wen Tianxiang, a talented and good-looking young champion (20-year-old champion).

"Where's the good boy?" The princess seemed to know the answer, and asked with a look of disdain.

"Wen Tianxiang's father is dead, Ding Wei has been in school for three years, it's almost time to return to Lin'an."

"If there is no Chen Lang's bravery, Wen Zhuangyuan will have no place to be an official when the mourning period expires." The little princess shook her head and asked lightly, "So where is the good boy in the first year of Baoyou?" ”

Emperor Lizong also shook his head, "The champion of the first year of Baoyou was Yao Mian, and now he is at home. ”

"What about Chunyou's good boy for ten years?"

"Fang Fengchen is also idle."

"What about Chunyou's good boy for seven years?"

"Zhang Yuanwei, I will be a young eunuch in the future."

"What about the one who has been in the fourth year of Chunyou?"

"Liumengyan, now the right attendant of the ministry."

Princess Shengguo sighed lightly and shook her head: "I don't know how many good men have been young eunuchs and waiters since ancient times?" But how many people can only get from drinking Ma Hanhai, sealing the wolf living in the mountains, and the big river in the west, and Qilian in Liejun County? ”
