Zhao Yan finally failed to ask the whereabouts of Zhao Yan and Zhao Jun and others, but Zhao Jia's words also reached his heart, after all, no matter the palm of the hand and the back of the hand are meat, no matter how Zhao Yan is not, it is also his own nephew, in terms of blood, they are actually the same as Zhao Xu, don't look at Zhao Yan shouting and killing when he learned that Zhao Xu died, but if he really tied Zhao Yan and the two in front of him, I am afraid that he will not be able to do it in the end. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

Zhao Xu passed the throne to Zhao Jia before he died, although Zhao Jia is only Zhao Xu's cousin, it seems that Zhao Xu's brother is not as suitable as Zhao Xu's own brother to inherit the throne, but Zhao Yan's prestige in the Great Song Dynasty is unparalleled, when Zhao Xu died, there were many people who wanted Zhao Yan to ascend the throne, but he refused, and now Zhao Xu died unexpectedly, so it is logical for Zhao Yan's son to inherit the throne, not to mention that this is still Zhao Xu's last words, even the most critical minister has no reason to object.

Zhao Jia's attitude towards the throne was deeply influenced by his father Zhao Yan, from the bottom of his heart, he was not very willing to let the throne bind his hands and feet, but unfortunately under Zhao Xu's deathbed, he also had to shoulder the burden of the Great Song Dynasty, and in the case of Zhao Xu's accidental death, in addition to him, the only person who could stabilize the situation in the Great Song Dynasty was his father Zhao Yan, but he knew that his father was definitely unwilling to sit on this throne, otherwise he would have done it more than ten years ago, as a son of man, he naturally had to share his father's worries, not to mention that Zhao Xu's father was not there when he died, Therefore, the throne can only fall on him.

For Zhao Jia to be the emperor, Zhao Yan didn't pay much attention to it at first, because after arriving in Dengzhou, he was immersed in grief, especially when he saw Zhao Xu's coffin later, he cried alone in front of the coffin. personally helped Zhao Yan diagnose and recuperate, but even so, Zhao Yan recuperated for nearly two months before recovering, and at this time it was already the date of Zhao Xu's burial.

According to the funeral rites of the emperor. Zhao Xu's wake period has been almost three months, and Dengzhou is not the capital after all, so he has to be transported to the capital to prepare for the funeral, so as soon as Zhao Yan's condition recovered, he immediately began to prepare for Zhao Xu's funeral. As for Zhao Jia, he returned to the capital in advance some time ago, after all, he was already the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, and because of the special situation, he hurriedly ascended the throne in Dengzhou under the witness of some important ministers, and it was precisely because of this that he couldn't always stay in Dengzhou, after all, there were still a lot of things in the capital that he needed to deal with, so he had to leave.

After a train was used to send Zhao Xu's coffin back to the capital, it happened to expire in March, so it was under the auspices of Zhao Yan. held a grand state funeral for Zhao Xu, this is the third time Zhao Yan has held a funeral for the emperor, the first two are his father and brother, and this time it is his nephew, but in comparison, this time he is more sad than the first two, after all, there is nothing more sad in this world than a white-haired person sending a black-haired person.

After the funeral, Zhao Yan helped Zhao Jia stabilize the domestic situation in the Great Song Dynasty, and when all aspects of the Great Song Dynasty were on the right track again, he put down all mundane affairs. Concentrate on staying at home with his wife, and by the way, educate more and more grandchildren, especially the two princesses left by Zhao Xu, who are taken care of by Zhao Yan as his own granddaughters. Such a day is peaceful and leisurely, but occasionally when I think of Zhao Xu, who died early, I still can't help but feel a little sad.

Thirty years have passed in a flash, and the Great Song Empire has become stronger and stronger under the leadership of Zhao Jia, and Nanyang has completely become the backyard of the Great Song Dynasty, and Australia has been divided into many state capitals. The Indian Ocean was also included in the rule of the Great Song Dynasty, but the rule of the Great Song Dynasty was mainly concentrated on the sea, and it also occupied the coastal areas of Tianzhu and Africa, as for the inland areas because of the strong resistance forces, the cost of the Great Song Dynasty to occupy there was too great, and there was no practical significance, after all, the territory of the Great Song Dynasty was too large, and the administrative institutions of the Great Song Dynasty had expanded to the limit, and they were really unable to rule other territories.

In addition, after the route to the Americas was discovered by Zhao Jia, many Song people also began to pour into the Americas, because a lot of gold mines were found there, and the rich products of the Americas also had a huge attraction to them, for example, the Song people who arrived in the Americas only needed to pay a small fee to get a huge piece of land, and all the output on the land belonged to individuals, such as the discovery of gold mines on this land, then the entire gold mine belonged to the owner of the land, but there was no free lunch in this world, If the owner of the land wanted to mine gold, he had to pay a large tax on the amount of gold produced.

It is also the attraction of gold and land, so that the Song people quickly established a settlement in the Americas, and then began to expand rapidly, during which there were some conflicts with the local natives in the Americas, but the Great Song did not have much malice towards the natives, and the natives were also more friendly to the Song people who looked similar, so both sides were more restrained, and they could also sit down and negotiate if there were conflicts, and sometimes the Great Song Dynasty would also help these natives solve some difficulties, so in general, the two sides got along very happily.

As for the arrival of the Song people to occupy some land, in fact, it is not a big problem at all, because the Americas are too vast, and the total population of the native people is estimated to be only about one or two hundred million, and it is really pitiful to be distributed on two continents, so the land occupied by the Great Song Dynasty is nothing at all, not to mention that the arrival of the Song people also helped them solve a lot of difficulties, such as medical care, food, clothing, etc., they can exchange some goods for the Great Song Dynasty.

However, it is also the vastness of the Americas, so that the Great Song Dynasty on the development of here progress is very slow, according to the estimate of the Great Song Dynasty, to complete the development of the two Americas, it is estimated that it will take two or three hundred years, of course, if the level of science and technology in the future has improved, and the number of Song people has grown rapidly, this development progress may be accelerated a lot.

In addition to overseas expansion, the Great Song Dynasty itself also continued to expand outward, after the destruction of the Liao State and the Jin State, the direction of the Great Song Dynasty's expansion was only the West, which was commonly known as the Western Regions of the Song Dynasty, but the expansion of the Great Song Dynasty in the Western Regions was about to border the Selzhu Empire, so it was temporarily stopped. However, with the stability of the Great Song Dynasty rule and the soaring strength, the expansion of the Western Regions was once again on the agenda, and the Great Song army began to encroach on the territory of the Serzhu Empire little by little.

For the westward expansion of the Great Song Dynasty, the Selzhu Empire naturally would not sit idly by, so they began to organize an army to the east in the eighteenth year after Zhao Jia ascended the throne. It was hoped that the Great Song army could be driven out of the Western Regions, but the strength of the Song army far exceeded their counterparts, and several expeditions of the Selju Empire were defeated, and in the end they could only shrink the defensive line. The advance of the Great Song Dynasty retreated again and again.

As the so-called disaster is not a single line, the Eastern Roman Empire also began to attack the Serjuk Empire after learning that the Serjuk Empire suffered a loss in the hands of the Great Song Dynasty, and the Eastern Roman Empire was at a small peak of national strength at this time, and the blow to the Serjuk Empire was also very powerful. As a result, under the blows of both sides, the Seljuk Empire is also in turmoil, coupled with the contradictions in their country, I am afraid that it will not be long before it will fall into division.

In the end, only the Holy Roman Empire in Europe remained, and after Zhao Jia left, Agnes passed the throne to her and Zhao Jia's son Zhao Hua, but Zhao Hua was too young, so he kept studying with Zhao Yan, and when he reached the age of eighteen, he rushed back to the Holy Roman Empire to actually take power.

Zhao Hua also inherited the talents of his grandfather and father. After coming to power, he began to tell the truth about the plan to unify Europe, waged round after round of wars against European countries, gradually annexed other kingdoms, expanded the territory of the empire, and finally it took him nearly twenty years to finally unify Europe and establish a huge empire.

The Holy Roman Empire was not incorporated into the Great Song Dynasty, nor was it a subsidiary of the Great Song Dynasty, but a ** empire, but the exchanges between the two sides were very frequent, and Zhao Hua had always regarded himself as a Han Chinese. Therefore, in order to stabilize his rule, he deliberately introduced many talents from the Great Song Dynasty into the administrative organs of the empire, coupled with people-to-people exchanges, so that more Song people entered Europe. Many of them settled in Europe, which also stabilized Zhao Hua's rule.

It is worth mentioning that with the influx of Song people, coupled with the fact that Zhao Hua himself was a Song person, the European upper class was very sought after for everything in the Great Song Dynasty, and even European aristocrats also rose up to wear Hanfu and speak Chinese. Some people even went through various ways to send their children to study in the Great Song Dynasty, which also deepened the spread of the Great Song civilization in Europe, and I believe that with the continuation of this exchange, Europe will become the second Great Song Dynasty in the future.

Zhao Yan generally doesn't care much about the development of the Great Song Dynasty in all aspects, unless he encounters a particularly important problem, Zhao Jia will deliberately go back to the Yue Wangfu to ask his father for advice, and Zhao Yan will give some of his own suggestions according to the situation.

Thirty years have made Zhao Yan from a middle-aged man in the prime of life to an old man with white hair, but Zhao Yan's usual spirit is very good, the grandchildren who were with him at the beginning have grown up and left, and then one after another great-grandchildren and great-granddaughters have been sent over, with so many children with him, Zhao Yan has never felt lonely.

This morning, Zhao Yan was woken up by a noise outside before he got up, and at that moment he got dressed under the service of the maid, and then walked out of the bedroom, only to see the same white-haired Cao Ying standing by a small pond not far from the bedroom, and there were many people working in the pond, so Zhao Yan walked over and asked, "Madam, what are you doing here?" ”

"Husband, I woke up, and when I came back this time, I saw that the pond was about to be clogged, and the yard was full of sewage when it rained, so I wanted someone to dredge it." Cao Ying also smiled at this time, although the years have left a lot of traces on her face, but in Zhao Yan's eyes, she is still the first beauty in the gate with silver hair.

"It's just a temporary stay for a few days, what are you going to do with all this effort?" Zhao Yan is a little unconcerned, some time ago the Yue Wangfu in the east of the city was rebuilt, not only to repair some old houses, but also to add a lot of new buildings, temporarily unable to live in, so Zhao Yan's family moved to this old Yue Wangfu, he and Cao Ying were married here, and the bedroom just now was still their new house, but the first meeting between the two was not very pleasant.

"This Lao Yue Wangfu is a place for us to get married, we can't watch it be deserted, and the place that should be taken care of must be taken care of!" Cao Ying still said with the posture of a housewife, even if the entire Great Song Dynasty is already her son's, she will never ignore any of her properties because of this, not to mention that this old mansion still has a special meaning for them.

"Hehe, whatever you want, as long as you're happy!" Zhao Yan smiled indifferently when he heard this.

However, as soon as Zhao Yan's words fell, he suddenly heard a noise from the subordinates working in the pond, which also attracted the attention of Zhao Yan and Cao Ying, and as a result, I saw those subordinates gathered together, one of them was holding something in his hand, and there was a lot of sludge on it, which seemed to be found from the pond.

"Lord Wang, the villain found a sword from the pond!" I saw that the subordinate ran up quickly, and then held up the item in his hand to report, only to see that he was indeed a sword, although there was a lot of mud on it, but the scabbard and the hilt of the sword were inlaid with precious stones, and at a glance he knew that it was a very valuable thing, so he hurriedly reported it.

"Huh? This...... This sword ......" When Cao Ying saw this sword, she was very excited, and she didn't care that the sword body was very dirty, so she reached out and grabbed the sword in her hand, and then held down the collapse spring and pulled out the sword with a "choking" sound, only to see that the sword body was like water, and there was no trace of rust.

"Good sword! It can't be some mischievous person in the family who accidentally fell into the pond, right? Zhao Yan saw that the sword was as bright as new, and it didn't look like it had been soaked in water for too long, so he guessed that after the family moved here, a great-grandson of the family accidentally dropped the sword into the pond.

However, what Zhao Yan never expected was that Cao Ying raised his head in astonishment, and then the people around him retreated, and then he whispered to him: "Husband, I threw this sword into the pond." ”

"Oh? How do I not remember that you had such a sword? Zhao Yan said in surprise when he heard this.

"Husband, you haven't seen this sword before, because this sword was thrown into the pond by me on the night we got married decades ago." Cao Ying spoke again, with an incredible expression on her face, because this sword had been soaked in the pond for decades, but it was as bright as new, as if it had just been thrown into the water yesterday, which was simply beyond people's comprehension.

"What?" Zhao Yan also showed a shocked expression when he heard this, because he also thought of the same problem. However, he still couldn't believe it, he grabbed the sword and looked at it several times, but he still didn't find even the slightest rust, not even the silk spike of the sword was not rotten, as if this sword was frozen in the long river of time, and he couldn't find any trace of time.

Seeing Zhao Yan's shocked expression, Cao Ying once again explained incredibly: "Husband, you also know that I was very reluctant to marry you at the beginning, and for this reason, I even thought about dying, so I carried this sword with me, but I was worried that it would harm my family, so I finally gave up this plan and threw this sword into the pond, but I didn't expect that decades later, this sword was still brand new!" ”

Zhao Yan was even more surprised when he heard this, it turned out that this sword was thrown into the pond by Cao Ying on the day he crossed it, speaking of which, the matter of his crossing was full of unsolved mysteries, and he traveled through thousands of years to the Great Song Dynasty, and this sword has been in the water for decades without any impact, does this also have some strange connections in the underworld? What is the nature of time? If you have changed the history yourself, will the history of future generations still exist......

A series of questions poured into Zhao Yan's mind, each question would lead to more questions, although it was almost impossible to have answers to these questions, but it made these questions more attractive, thinking about these in his mind, Zhao Yan gradually became a little stupid, and his gaze into the distance was also confused.
