Although the next day was already the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, everyone found that the Yanwang Mansion was lively in advance, not only sent a large number of people to buy supplies for the festival, but also invited a few teams, and the sergeants of Xiangyi from the guard battalion stationed in the military camp in the outer city also paid them to return to Xiangyi for the New Year.

Zhao Ta received a message from the palace early in the morning, the emperor returned to Beijing today after worshipping his ancestors, and asked the Beijing Chinese duke, the clan relatives and officials above the fifth grade to pick up outside the Fengqiu Gate, he got up early in the morning and dressed up neatly, and brought a few relatives such as Jianxi and Wangfu to wait outside the city gate early before dawn. At this moment, the winter has not gone, the spring has not arrived, it is the exchange of the two seasons, it is still very cold, the time has passed, there is a royal history roll call and arrangement, the Soldiers and Horses Division and Kaifeng Mansion have sent people to clean the street and maintain order.

Zhao Ta and the officials in the court are not very familiar, and they are not familiar with each other, he stands on the side and squints, basking in the sun to nourish his spirits, and no one talks to him, and others ignore him, but he is safe.

"Boom, boom..."Zhao Ta suddenly opened his eyes, after the tempering on the battlefield, the sound of horses' hooves five miles away could not escape his ears, and sure enough, it was only a moment before the official Pegasus sent a message, and the emperor had arrived at Wuli Pavilion, so that everyone was ready to take over, and there was chaos again. Zhao Ta, as a prince, has a ministry, and it is said that he should stand in the first row as a prince, but the imperial history of the shift does not know whether he intentionally or unintentionally stuffed him into the ranks of foreign officials of various state officials.

After waiting for a while, the emperor's return book appeared in front of everyone's eyes, which was a team integrating honor guards, military bands, dance performances, vehicle services, traffic safety and public security. There were more than 5,000 people. The emperor's travel is related to the emperor's personal safety, so the guards are extremely strict, and the personnel participating in the halogen book are a little slack. There is a fear of life. First of all, the civil and military officials who accompanied him, and the emperor generally had an edict before traveling, and in addition to the prescribed accompanying persons, the prefectures and counties through which he passed and the counties of Thorn Shi were ordered to stay in the territory first, and they were the guides; After that, there is the emperor's halo book, which is also the main body of the team, with a mighty row of racks and horses, infantry soldiers. The general's chamberlains were divided into teams, waving flags, drumming and music, escorting more than 20 cars slowly. All kinds of clothes and armor, canopies, and flower covers dazzled Zhao Ta; I haven't seen his father's car for a long time...

With the singing of the ceremonial officer, Zhao Talen knelt and then bowed with everyone, and then the prince and the chief deacons congratulated the table, and after a string of rituals, Zhao Talen did not see his father's face, but could only see the golden canopy on the roof of the golden camel. Listen to the drowsy sound of the pilgrimage.

"Prince Yan has arrived!" Suddenly, an attendant shouted at the crowd.

"Son, congratulations to my father on his safe return to Beijing!" Zhao Ta heard the shouting, and hurriedly came out of the queue and bowed loudly.

"Your Majesty, please ask Prince Yan to come to the car and reply!" After the chamberlain saluted Zhao Ta, he said with a smile.

"Obey the command!" Zhao Ta walked to the emperor's car under the guidance of the chamberlain, and he peeked at the eyes around him, some were envious, some were jealous, and some were disapproving. I only muttered in my heart, this hasn't entered the door yet. Why let him reply first, I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse.

"Jiro has lost weight. It's dark too! As soon as they met, Zhao Ji said.

"Thank you for your father's memory, my sons and daughters will open up territory for my father, and I hope that the horse leather shroud, the black spots and thin spots are nothing!" Zhao Ta hurriedly replied.

"Hehe, I thought you would have to arrive in Beijing tomorrow, but I didn't expect you to come back so soon!" Zhao Ji seemed very satisfied with his son's answer, and said with a smile.

"The son received the holy decree of his father, knowing that there must be an urgent matter, he packed up that night, and set off early the next morning, and finally arrived in Beijing the day before yesterday!" Zhao said.

"Okay, it's nearly two thousand miles away, and you can get there in eight days, which can be described as fast!" Zhao Ji nodded and praised. …,

"Father, it's cold outside, and it's windy again, please go back to the palace early, let's talk about it, otherwise it will be the son's sin to get cold." Zhao Ta didn't feel that there was anything abnormal about his father, and he talked to himself in some common words, and there was concern in his words, which made him even more uneasy, and he couldn't figure out what kind of medicine his father was selling in his gourd.

"Well, go back to the palace!" Zhao Ji waved his hand, but there was a warmth rising in his heart, others were eager to say a few more words when they saw him, and he was reluctant to leave, but his son first thought of his own warmth and coldness, and looked out through the curtain, his son helped the car and walked slowly, and did not get on the horse, but found that Zhao Ta'er's walking posture was a little unnatural, "Ta'er, are you uncomfortable, why do you walk crookedly?" He asked with a wave of his hand to stop the newly started convoy.

"Enlighten my father, my son's ministers are in a hurry for days, this... was worn out by the saddle, and it was inevitably inconvenient to walk, which made my father worry! Zhao Ta smiled a little embarrassedly and said embarrassedly.

"Alas, I was negligent!" Zhao Ji shook his head and sighed, "Arrange for Prince Yan to drive me back to the palace with me, and let them go back too!" He turned back to the attendant who was serving in the car.

"Yes! The Holy Lord decreed, Prince Yan returned to the palace with the Holy Driver, and the officials dispersed! The waiter replied, singing loudly, as soon as his voice fell, the officials retreated to both sides and said congratulations, but their hearts were full of muttering, and they all guessed the emperor's thoughts, Zhao Kai was even more stunned, he couldn't figure out why this kind of result would happen...

"Ancient and modern people rule the world, etiquette!" Etiquette is the code of conduct of the Chinese ruling class, used to restrain people's thoughts and behaviors, and the etiquette has existed in the Western Zhou Dynasty, constantly being standardized and institutionalized, which can be described as more and more complicated, and is the manifestation of the ancient emperor's extreme desire for luxury!

Taichang Temple quickly arranged a car for Zhao Ta, got into the car and walked in the team, Zhao Ta found that it had a certain degree of scientificity, and said that the advocacy office in the accompanying Dajia Lu book was not only used to set off the atmosphere, but also played the role of transmitting news. Due to the large number of people and the long distance between the front and back, they were placed in front and behind the main driving of the book for the sake of unity of action, and the drum music also played a role in conveying a specific message. There is also a guide car in the team to identify the direction, memorize the drum car to calculate the mileage, and grasp the time, as if it is a legion. This made him furious, if his marching team was also equipped with these timing and counting tools, wouldn't he be able to accurately grasp the fighters?

The Song Dynasty's city administration had broken down the closed fang market and evolved into an open street market, with the main street about thirty meters wide and drains and trees lining the road. However, the shops on both sides of the street often 'advance' their business scope to the middle of the road due to the needs of attracting customers and business operators, and the congestion of the road can be imagined due to the large number of citizens and tourists.

According to the experience of Zhao Ta in his previous life, not to mention the head of a country, the governor of a province, or even a city leader passed by, the traffic police had blocked the roads along the way, and the vendors along the street were also warned early to close their doors, and the city management chased the vendors along the street to the point where they were hiding. But in this era, Zhao Ta opened his eyes, not only was the road passed by the emperor not closed, but even the vendors were open as usual, and there were even people chasing the car to watch the excitement, treating this as a parade of floats.

In the face of Zhao Tan's question, the coachman gave him the answer, because some vendors and illegal buildings that invaded the street were not demolished, but some major events related to the basic people's livelihood, so the emperor's travel honor guard took the initiative to reduce the entourage, reduce the scale, and no longer ban the street! Someone asked if the honor guard of more than 5,000 people is still small, which is much larger than now, but the 'infantry and iron cavalry' of more than 10,000 people in the early years of the founding of the Song Dynasty has shrunk by half, and it cannot but be said to be a kind of progress of the times. …,

Zhao Ta anxiously followed his father into the palace, took a nap, and after Zhao Ji finished washing and changing, he asked him to accompany him for lunch. Zhao Ta was even more puzzled, according to the news, he should have entered Beijing to discuss the crime, why did his father give him a car and a meal, what did he want to do, it made him feel like he had fallen into the clouds.

"Ta'er, you have worked hard in the northwest and east, but after you recover Lingzhou, why do you insist on attacking Xingzhou?" Zhao Ji ate a few bites and put down his chopsticks, and asked the waiter to bring the dish he had just tasted to Zhao Tadao.

"Thank you, Father!" Zhao Ta said, after eating the food sent up, his mind turned sharply, isn't this an opportunity, he sighed and said: "Father, you don't know the way, in order to fight Lingzhou's sons and daughters lost thousands of soldiers, after capturing the outer city, the Western Xia pseudo-sacrifice Wang Wei Ming Anhui stuck to the inner city and did not surrender, and the sons had to personally lead the troops into battle, destroyed the city wall before attacking the inner city, and the old ghost of Wei Ming An Hui was willing to surrender, but Erchen was young after all, and he had experienced very little things, and he didn't know that there was fraud in it, if his father was definitely not fooled by him!" ”

"Oh, then the name An Hui is also a person who has read poetry and books, a reasonable person, and will use fraud?" Zhao Ta successfully aroused his father's curiosity.

"Hehe, this famous Anhui is actually bullied by Erchen, and he hates me to the core!" Zhao Ta smiled embarrassedly.

"Ha Luha, Ta'er is talking about the battle of the Iron Gate!" Zhao Ji said with a smile, he also knew about this matter from the correspondence with Zhao Ta.

"Yes, if he listened to Xiao Heda's words and stuck to the iron gate, Erchen really couldn't do anything about him, but he was looking for death and sent someone to rob the camp, how did he know that Lu Dao's Erchen had already obtained his father's formation, and had already laid out a large array waiting for him to take the bait, and as a result, a big battle, from midnight to dawn, almost wiped it out, if it wasn't for Xiao Heda's help, Erchen would have captured him alive and dedicated him to his father, and he ran away after the worst, Xiao Heda let Erchen kill him, do you say he can not hate Erchen?" Zhao Ta said, handing over the sycophants quietly.

"Yes, I have also heard of Xiao Heda's brave name, he is still a Liao person, how can he not hate you when he loses his general!" Zhao Ji was really happy and said.

"That's it, I hate that the son didn't listen to his father's teachings at that time, and he was arrogant, thinking that Wei Ming Anhui was already a defeated general, but I didn't expect him to want his son to back him when he was dying, father, how do you guess he hurt me?" Zhao Ta sold Guan Zidao... (To be continued......)
