Fortunately, it didn't take a while for Du Jinning and Qi Muyuan to come.

Du Jinning has a special identity, not only the eldest princess, but also the great Si Nong, it is normal to come to this kind of occasion. But it was not suitable for Qi Ziqi to come here, so he was left in the East Fifth Institute.

When Bart saw Qi Muyuan, he snorted coldly in his nose.

He was almost two meters tall, dark-skinned, muscular, and as strong as an iron tower. Qi Muyuan is 1.85 meters, his body is a type of undressed and thin, coupled with his handsome appearance, low-key but still somewhat luxurious dressing, at first glance he is completely a beautiful son.

There was no need to compete, the two of them stood there, and they seemed to have an immediate opinion.

Seeing this, the envoy of the Jin Kingdom laughed proudly and said to Zhao: "This colt is so thin and weak, and his identity is so noble, it is not good for Bart to hurt him." In my opinion, it's better not to compare. ”

Zhao Yu glanced at him and asked Qi Muyuan: "Donkey, what do you say?" ”

Qi Muyuan looked at the envoy of the Jin State lightly: "It turns out that you are talking about who is the bravest on the grassland, just to see who is the tallest?" If this is the case, there will be several soldiers in our capital army who are stronger than you, Barth, not to mention the officers and men of the other army. ”

The smile on the Jin envoy's face froze.

Zhao Yu laughed and said, "So that's the case." We are choosing warriors here, not just to see who is muscular, but to be brave and resourceful. A strong man who is tall but clumsy and does not show any skill in fighting can only be called a reckless man, not a warrior. Not to mention those who are tall but timid and cowardly. ”

Bart was flushed with anger again.

He considered himself not only the strongest on the prairie, but also the bravest and smartest.

He stepped forward, looked at Qi Muyuan, and said loudly, "I would like to have a try with this concubine." ”

"That's right. In the contest field, only strength determines the victory or defeat, not by mouth. The envoy of the Jin State immediately said.

As long as Bart wins, no matter how much Zhao Yu and the colt talk about, they will only be slapped in the face.

"Since the envoys of the Jin State have been invited repeatedly, you can play with them." Zhao said.

The group moved outside again.

The little eunuchs originally wanted to move the tables and chairs out for Zhao Yu and the two envoys to sit on, but they were stopped by Gonggong Wu's knife.

Zhao Yu didn't pay it back, the two envoys sat under the porch, eating snacks and fruits while watching Qi Muyuan and Bart fight, what did Qi Muyuan think of it? A monkey entertaining everyone? What is the dignity of the Celestial Empire?

So the group stood under the porch and watched.

In order to prevent Bart from taking the opportunity to assassinate Zhao Mei, Qi Muyuan walked out with his sword and stood ten feet away from the steps.

Bart followed him, saw the sword in his hand, and shouted, "We don't compare weapons, we only compare fists and feet." ”

Qi Muyuan stopped and sneered: "It was you who shouted for the competition, and it was you who shouted about the comparison of height and weight, and now you are shouting that it is not a weapon, but only a fist bigger." Otherwise, you can ask the emperor for instructions, you steppe warriors are best at what they are better at, and in addition, when the two countries fight in the future, don't let the soldiers take weapons, only compare the kung fu of horses? ”

When he said this, not only Bart, but all the Western Xia and Jin people present were blushing. And the faces of Zhao Yu and the Great Song officials sank.

In the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, in front of the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, it is okay to compete with the Great Song people, but you have to follow your rules, why is your face so big? Who do you think you are? Isn't this a thick provocation?

Zhao Yu looked at the envoy of the Jin State: "Your country is dissatisfied with our Great Song Dynasty and wants to come to my palace to provoke?" Without waiting for the envoy of the Jin State to speak, he turned his head to Wu Gong and said fairly, "Dispatch the military department, immediately reorganize the troops, and prepare for war on the border adjacent to the Jin State." ”

"No, no, no, no, no......" The envoy of the Jin State was in a panic, and his feet were weak and he was almost about to kneel down for Zhao Yu, "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, it's really a misunderstanding, we definitely didn't mean that." ”

As he spoke, he yelled at Bart, "Bart, do you know the rules?" The requirements of the competition are put forward by you, so the rules of the competition have to be determined by the horse. ”

Bart stared at Qi Muyuan with breathlessness: "Okay, then follow your rules." ”

"Naturally, according to our rules. This is the Great Song Dynasty, not the grassland, am I still wrestling with you? Qi Muyuan was still a thick mockery.

He pulled his sword out of its scabbard: "Come on." ”

Bart and his party entered the palace, and their martial arts were all handed in. At this time, there is a competition, and someone has already sent Bart's big knife.

Bart took the big knife and made a gesture to Qi Muyuan: "It's started." Before the words fell, he stepped forward directly and slashed at Qi Muyuan.

He held back the fire in his stomach just now, and vowed to make Qi Muyuan look good.

Qi Muyuan secretly shouted: "It's a good time." On the side of his body, he swung his sword forward and directly met Bart's big knife with his sword.

I only heard the sound of "dang chang", and the knife and sword slashed together.

Bart was overjoyed. He has a lot of strength, and Qi Muyuan is thin. If Qi Muyuan tried his best to swim around and attack him with skill, his chances of winning would not be great. But if it's a hard-hitting hard-hitting force, then he's sure to win.

His lips curled, and he was about to say two sarcastic words, when he heard a "clang", and his knife suddenly broke off from the middle, and the upper half fell directly to the ground.

There was silence in front of the main hall.

"This, this, this ......" After a pause, Bart looked incredulously at the knife he still had half of his knife left.

Du Jinning couldn't help but purse his lips and laugh. She hurriedly turned her head away so as not to be seen by the envoys of the two countries on the steps.

She knew that the level of governance and refining on the grassland was not high, and the weapons used by the soldiers of the Jin Kingdom were inferior to those of the Great Song Dynasty. It's just that it's not much, and it's not to the point where the Great Song Dynasty can have an absolute advantage in the war with weapons.

Now that the steel has been manufactured, the weapons of the Great Song Dynasty have made a qualitative leap. Not to mention that they can cut their weapons with one sword, and the two soldiers are connected, and it is inevitable that their knives will have multiple gaps.

On the way here just now, she also told Qi Muyuan about the key points of sword casting, telling him where to cut and at what angle to cut in order to cause the most damage to their blade body.

But she really didn't expect the Jin Dynasty's knife to be so bad. As soon as the sword goes down, it's GG.

"Do you want to continue?" Qi Muyuan asked.

Bart was red-eyed, holding a half-cut ground knife, and yelled at Qi Muyuan: "Go on." As he spoke, he waved towards Qi Muyuan.

"Dang" is the sound of knives and swords colliding. However, this time Qi Muyuan didn't give everyone a chance to appreciate the condition of the knife, and moved a little behind Bart, and the sharp sword reached Bart's throat.

Bart's cold hairs stood on end.

If his knife was cut off just now, he still hasn't been able to appreciate the sharpness of this sword well. Then he didn't have to try it now to know how sharp the blade was, and he seemed to feel that his skin had been cut and blood was oozing.

In fact, the blade of the sword was still some distance from his skin.

After all, the two countries intersect and do not cut off. Qi Muyuan just wanted to frustrate their arrogance, not to create an incident and let the Jin Dynasty have all kinds of excuses to stir up trouble.

"Emperor, Emperor......" The envoy of the Jin State was also startled, and turned his head to look at Zhao Yu as if asking for help, hoping that he would retreat Qi Muyuan.

Zhao Yu smiled and said, "Don't worry, he has a sense of proportion." ”

The envoy of the Jin State cursed in his heart, and looked at Bart worriedly.

Qi Muyuan asked, "How is it, do you accept it or not?" As he spoke, his hand shook, as if he could not hold the sword steadily, and the blade of the sword sent another inch to Bart's throat.

Bart wanted to say a few words, but he was frightened by Qi Muyuan's action, and hurriedly said: "If you take it, you are a warrior." ”

He knew very well that even if Qi Muyuan killed him, their monarch would not dare to really attack the Great Song Dynasty.

In recent years, the Great Song Dynasty has been rich and strong, and it is definitely not easy to mess with.

Zhao Yu heard Bart admit defeat, so he laughed "haha": "Donkey, okay, let him go." As he spoke, he said to the officials of Honglu Temple, "Lord Zhou, Lord Guan, you should entertain the envoys of the two countries. They want to buy tea, salt, and iron, and you will lead them to talk to Qian Shangshu and them. ”

As he spoke, he nodded to the envoys of the two countries, turned around and entered the main hall.

Guan Jiaze smiled: "Two please, let's go out." ”

Over there, Qi Muyuan had already withdrawn his sword and said to Du Jinning: "Let's go, go to the East Fifth Institute to pick up my son." Ignoring Bart and the others, the two went in the other direction.

The envoy of the Jin Kingdom didn't care so much, hurried down the steps, walked to Bart's side, picked up the truncated knife from his feet, and studied it carefully.

He took Bart to the Great Song Dynasty, and repeatedly asked for a competition, and the knife used by Bart was naturally not a fake and shoddy product, but the best craftsmen in their Jin country, using the best iron, specially made according to Barth's strength, and the quality was excellent.

But in this way, he was cut off by the Great Song Horse, which is incredible.

He raised his head and asked Barth, "Is his strength very great?" ”

Bart touched his neck with palpitations, as if he couldn't come back to his senses, but still answered the ambassador's question: "No." It was his sword that was particularly sharp. ”

Even if Guan Jiaze didn't understand the meaning of Zhao Yu and Du Jinning at first, he saw it later.

He smiled and said lightly, "Does Ambassador Jin suspect that our master is using famous swords like Bigan and Mo Ye?" No, the sword he used was the most commonly used sword by our Great Song Dynasty soldiers. If you don't believe it, you will be able to see it on the battlefield in the future. ”

Jin Guo and Xixia's eyes widened, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on their backs.

When Du Jinning entered the palace, he was bound to go to ask the Empress Dowager Zheng for peace. The two broke up at the fork in the road, and Qi Muyuan went to the East Fifth Institute.

"You're here?" As soon as he entered the hall, he saw Zhao Mingyue handing over a newspaper with a smile, "I'll show you." ”

"What is this?" Du Jinning asked.

""Morning Flower Newspaper." Zhao Mingyue said.

As she spoke, she glanced at Du Jinning with disgust: "You won't forget, right?" ”

Empress Dowager Zheng said with a smile: "Jinning is busy with business all day, even if you forget it, you should forget it." It's not like you, who has nothing to do all day, so you just remember this newspaper. ”

"I haven't forgotten, but I didn't expect you to move so fast." Du Jinning said.

She saluted the Empress Dowager Zheng, and then opened the newspaper and read it.

Running a newspaper was her idea for Zhao Mingyue.

In the past few years, Zhao Mingyue and the nobles in Beijing have funded several girls' schools, in addition to teaching those civilian girls to read and write, but also to teach them some life skills. And after Du Jinning's deeds spread, it inspired many women. Some of the daughters in the family are smarter, and their parents have begun to support them in their studies.

In this way, it is far from enough for Zhao Mingyue and them to open these schools.

They want to do more to help talented women.

So Du Jinning gave them an idea to run a newspaper, in addition to publishing life content, it can also publish prose and poetry written by female authors. In addition, various journals and magazines can also be published.

Nowadays, the Great Song Dynasty is prosperous and powerful, and there are more literate people, and the prosperity of culture will inevitably follow.

These newspapers and periodicals not only generate economic benefits for women who are able to write, but also provide employment opportunities for other women in printing, typesetting, editing, etc.

Women can support themselves with their abilities, which means the improvement of family status and social status, which is the correct way for women's emancipation, rather than writing a few feminist articles and shouting a few slogans.

Du Jinning browsed the newspaper, raised his head and said to Zhao Mingyue: "Very good." ”

Zhao Mingyue breathed a sigh of relief.

The two of them looked at each other and laughed.

"You can have people go to various cities and set up these newspapers." Du Jinning said.

"Okay." Zhao Mingyue is full of motivation.

Empress Dowager Zheng looked at the two children, her eyes full of love.

She now truly loves Du Jinning and regards her as her own daughter.

She knew that without Du Jinning, Da Song would never be what it is now.

She took Du Jinning's hand and told her carefully: "Don't be too tired these days. You can't do anything, you have to take care of your body. When you are in good health, you will have more time to do things in the future. ”

"Queen Mother, I know." Du Jinning smiled, his heart warm.

After staying in Shouning Palace for a while, Du Jinning went to Dongwu to pick up his son. When the family of three came out of the palace, the sky was already covered with sunset.

Du Jinning stepped into the carriage, looked at the red sunset, and turned his head to look at the unique cornices and walls of the ancient buildings reflected in the glow, and suddenly sighed.

I think how much she wanted to go back when she traveled to the Great Song Dynasty. In modern times, she has a house, a car, a career, air conditioning, a mobile phone and a computer, but in ancient times she had nothing and was in a miserable situation.

But now, if there is a chance for her to choose, she will definitely give up the opportunity to return to the modern era and stay in this backward ancient world.

Here, she has so many people who love her, the people she loves, and the future she has built.

My heart is my hometown!

"Husband, I love you." Du Jinning kissed Qi Muyuan on the cheek.

lowered his head again, and kissed Qi Ziqi's cute little chubby face: "Son, my mother loves you too." ”

"Mother, I love you too." Qi Ziqi's children responded eagerly to Du Jinning, and kissed Du Jinning on the face.

Qi Muyuan was a little more restrained, not used to showing his feelings outside, but he still leaned over and kissed Du Jinning, his mouth was not spoken, but his eyes were full of love.

Eight months later, Du Jinning gave birth to a daughter, the mother and daughter were safe, and promised: "I will never give birth to a son and a daughter." ”

"It's good not to be born. You must know that the Great Song Dynasty is inseparable from you. Qi Bokun hugged his great-granddaughter and smiled from ear to ear.

Du Jinning looked at Qi Muyuan, and the two looked at each other and smiled.

"Mother." Qi Ziqi squeezed over, stood on tiptoe to look at the baby in the swaddling clothes, and tried to poke her white and chubby bun face, "My sister is so cute." ”

"Is it your first cutest, or your sister's first cutest?" Du Jinning teased him.

Qi Ziqi wrinkled his little face and thought for a long time: "We are tied for first place." ”
