However, the Umbrella Regent annihilated the enemies of the Jurchens in one fell swoop, which really made them raise their eyebrows.
The regent had led a group of pioneers back to the palace seven or eight days ago, and early this morning on Chinese New Year's Eve, many people found that on this street, a team of infantry suddenly appeared, majestic captains,
The samurai, the forbidden army, and the Song army are presented. The front team is a group of cavalry, in the middle is a string of Jurchen prisoners tied with straw ropes, and the rear team is guarded by infantry. Some people have Chinese New Year's Eve estimated that there were at least 30,000 or 40,000 captives bound by straw ropes.
According to the Jurchen warriors, not counting the capture, the regent also personally led the cavalry out of the border pass, attacked and killed the herdsmen outside the pass everywhere, smashed and left the city, killed dozens of Jurchen princes on Chinese New Year's Eve, captured the Jurchen empress dowager, brought back countless cattle and sheep, and there were as many as 70,000 horses alone.
Those Jurchens who are not in a lifetime on weekdays, now shrug their heads one by one, can no longer see any arrogance, one by one looks emaciated and tired, even walking a little weak, the people along the street see it, they can't help laughing, someone Chinese New Year's Eve shouted: "Jurchen dog." So many children clapped their hands and followed behind the infantry and jumped up and down and shouted: "Jurchen dog, Jurchen dog......"
In the tea house, it is also discussed, Western Xia is mainly composed of Western Qiang and Han people, Western Qiang people are not necessary, as early as hundreds of years ago are no different from Han people, Chinese New Year's Eve when the Song Dynasty was founded, the Li family was still the chief under the rule of the Chinese New Year's Eve Song, except for some ethnic characteristics, the rest is not language
Clothing and customs are also more sinicized on Chinese New Year's Eve, just like this tea house, which is also the favorite place of the country.
Usually, the country does not drink tea with the Han people, often one upstairs and one downstairs, each different, but now it is not in line with the "in the heart of the nation" whether the regent likes or dislikes, after all, there is still a common ground, convinced!
If you don't accept it, killing the Jurchens is like cutting a melon, the Jurchens chase the Khitans to fight, and the Khitans have always pressed the party to beat them, and the regent jumped out and directly cleaned up the Jurchens, who would dare to disagree?
Jingru this street-facing Qingtai Tea House, early in the morning on Chinese New Year's Eve, there are many people sitting on the second floor, Han people,
There are all party members, and occasionally there are Tubo people who come up, compared to the time when the infantry team entered the city, at first the various ethnic groups were still distinct in winding paths, and each had nothing to do with it, but now they are all squeezed to the position of the window.
Many pairs of eyes looked at the burly generals below, and then looked at the ragged Jurchens, and they couldn't help but talk.
A well-informed "also broke the news: "After His Royal Highness the regent returned to the palace, he discussed with the Emperor Taishang about the matter of these Jurchens. His Royal Highness proposed that the nation set up a labor camp to manage these Jurchen slaves, and in the future, they would be exempted from forced labor, and the Jurchen slaves would be allowed to do the work of controlling the water and building roads in the future. When some people heard this, their eyes lit up. A rebellious sentence "Since Shen Ao was in charge of the country, the low position of the country has plummeted, and many privileges have long been unworthy of the name, and even many countries are much worse than the Han people, and the Han people can also earn a reputation, but they can still do business, they can earn a fortune, and if they are poor, they can always find something to do." It's just that the nation has been lazy for a long time these years, and without this privilege, "life is getting more and more difficult, and some ancestors have left their family business, and their hearts are not happy."
And now letting the country manage the Jurchen slaves "is tantamount to making the nation lose a privilege, but it has gained a privilege" can't bully others, at least this Jurchen slave can also bully it, a few people in the teahouse overlooking the country have a happy face, and can't help but say viciously: "If I take care of these Jurchen slaves, they must not be able to survive, and they will not be able to refrain from death." At this time, someone in the rear team suddenly let the horse fly over, and everyone couldn't help but have some doubts, and someone said: "It's six hundred miles of urgency, could it be that something happened again?" This is not good, it can't be that the Jurchen lord is angry and comes to fight with the country, right? ”
The person who spoke had a little fear on his face; But on Chinese New Year's Eve, most people scoffed, and some people said disdainfully: "With His Royal Highness here, what are you afraid of the Jurchen Lord doing?" Even if he attacks the country, His Highness can make them walk around without food. ”
If Shen Ao heard these words, he would have to go crazy and let him face the 300,000 Jurchen Iron Horsemen, and he would immediately take the burden and flee every day, and he would never stay. Be kind, this is to push the rich man of Shen Chinese New Year's Eve into the fire pit, it is not easy to make a Chinese New Year's Eve fortune, good days do not go to live, does the birthday star want to hang himself?
On Chinese New Year's Eve, the family was crowded, watching the urgent fast horse nose to the Western Xia Palace.

Now Wenshu Pavilion has become Shen Ao's study and office, back to Longxing Mansion, he is suddenly idle, many official affairs can be handed over to the subordinates to take measures, not that he is suddenly lazy, but in the past, prestige has not yet been established, and the forces in various places are stupid, and he is not reluctant to take measures for all kinds of affairs. But now, everyone knows that the position of the regent in the prison country has become too stable to be stable. If someone causes a rebellion, it is no different from sending them to death.
If you can be lazy, why not steal? This is Shen Ao's way of life, he would rather sit in this Manjushri Pavilion and make a pot of hot tea, "Heng Qu'er is stunned, and he will never touch the tools on the copy, he is still at ease with Yang Zhen, and there is a official Shilang and Zhongshu Order to show him, it is really impossible, he the guy and chops it up and feeds it to the dog, and the world will be pure." In any case, rebellion could never be seen in Western Xia. As for if Yang Zhen dares to fool him, then don't even think about it, this Xixia doesn't know how many people have been staring at Yang Zhen's position for a long time, just waiting to pick out the mistake and replace it, there will never be a shortage of people to tell the story, what Shen Ao has to do is just to prove the truth of the statement.
So back in the palace, Shen Ao teased Shen Sui, talked to Miao'er, and sat here, he had to think, he felt that there were still many meaningful things in this world that he needed to plan, and most importantly, he now had a Chinese New Year's Eve money, and this account should be calculated clearly.
Holding a book in his hand, he read absentmindedly for a while, feeling bored, knowing that today was the day of the return of the Chinese New Year's Eve army, and wanted to take time to go outside the palace to see the ghost wisdom ring, and there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside.
"Your Highness, six hundred miles urgently, the latest news from Bianjing."
A secret report was handed to Shen Ao, Shen Ao took it and looked at it, his face changed suddenly for a while, and he said, "Where is the person who sent the letter?" Invite him to come in. After a while, a burly general walked in, Shen Ao wiped his eyes, and couldn't help but rush up and give the person who came a bear hug: "Haha............ It turned out to be my brother-in-law, and I looked forward to it day and night, and I longed to see it. ”
"Cousin......, Your Highness...... "The person who came was Zhou Heng, Zhou Heng was reborn from the image of a fat man, his water chestnut face was slightly vicissitudes, the tiger's back was bear's waist, and the leather belt around his waist was tied tightly, making him look more and more heroic, seeing Shen Ao rushing over without a head, he immediately took a step back and shouted Chinese New Year's Eve: "Your Highness...... No...... There is a difference between dignity and inferiority...... Your Highness ......"
The words couldn't go on, and the moment Shen Ao hugged him, he also hugged Shen Ao fiercely, and couldn't help but say, "Cousin, why don't you go back after being in Xixia for so long?" When I came, Sister Ah also came to ask, was she fascinated by a vixen again, and what did she do to be sorry for her? ”
Shen Ao spread him, this time although the captain rushed to Xixia, but Zhou Heng was not among the selections, in the end, the martial arts academy still had to leave some backbones to assist in the training of new students, and now suddenly seeing this guy, Shen Ao's reaction was inevitable, he smiled, patted Zhou Heng, who was a few points taller than him, and said: "My cousin has been Chinese New Year's Eve, haha, more and more like a man." ”
Zhou Heng smiled bitterly: "It's a pity that my cousin is called a wife, but I can't find a wife." ”
Shen Ao was stunned and said, "What? Taishan Chinese New Year's Eve people did not give a family affair? ”
Tongheng shook his head and said: "Dad, start a business first and then start a family, and this matter will be put aside." Then he smiled and said, "It's okay to hold back for a while, in fact, I'm different from my cousin."
He raised his chin slightly, and said in a tone of arrogance and a little contempt for Shen Ao: "I, Zhou Heng, am no longer the Zhou Heng I used to be. Shen Ao felt that his words were a little ugly, and couldn't help but say, "Ruo'er, is something right?" ”
Zhou Heng spread his hands and said: "It's nothing, it's just that my cousin is too attentive, and I see one loving the other......" Shen Ao said shamelessly: "Raise love, raise love, in fact, my cousin can have today, it is all Ruo'er's cultivation." Shen Ao remembered what happened in the letter just now, couldn't help frowning, and said, "When is the news of the Taiyuan Earth Movement?" Has the imperial court issued a decree to provide relief for the disaster? ”
Zhou Heng said solemnly: "Your Majesty has already made a will, let my father be a messenger, and help Taiyuan on behalf of the sky." My father had already set off and asked me to inform my cousin. ”
Shen Ao sighed and said: "There are so many people who have died, there may be chaos, the Western Xia side, it is not enough to stand by and watch, it is better to do this, I immediately allocate 500,000 guan, and then send some herbs and grain nearby, now I am the regent of this Western Xia, and I am also the courtier of the Chinese New Year's Eve Song, the Western Xia and the Chinese New Year's Eve Song are a family, regardless of each other, the most important thing is to give relief at the moment, and other things will be put aside for the time being." ”
Zhou Heng bowed his jaw and said, "It would be great if it could be like this." Shen Ao continued: "It's not easy to come here, just stay in this palace, it's mine."
Brother-in-law and cousin, irrelevant, but ......" he said solemnly: "Come back, brothers are brothers, the women in this palace can't stop looking at it, forget it, my cousin is too uneasy, it's better to ask the two eunuchs to follow day and night, save the ferocity Chinese New Year's Eve, and do something." ”
Zhou Heng was stunned for a moment and said, "Cousin, I really changed!" ”
Shen Ao pouted and said, "Then I will change my son, believe it or not?" ”
Zhou Heng shook his head like a drum: "I don't believe it." ”
Shen Ao smiled faintly and said: "But my cousin doesn't believe it anymore, don't talk much, go, take the nephew who went to see..
