Chapter 32: The Destruction of a Barbarian
The next day.
"Brother Wang's blessings are not shallow!"
Ma Kuo said with emotion.
"Don't talk nonsense, there is innocence between us, am I the kind of casual person?"
Wang Yue looked at Xiao Ta Buyan, who was staring at them in front of him, and said righteously.
He really hadn't done anything, just a lesson, at best in a special way, and he wasn't interested in a woman who hadn't even brushed her teeth.
Ma Kuo smiled.
Then he hurriedly left this place of right and wrong under Xiao Ta's fierce gaze.
Xiao Ta continued to look at Wang Yue fiercely, who was whistling casually, and at this moment, on the horizon in the distance, towering pagodas loomed, in a stretch of green, against the blue of the sky, like thorns emerging from the earth.
The city has arrived.
"Are there many temples in the city?"
Wang Yue asked.
"Countless, how? It's not worse than your Tokyo, is it? ”
Xiao Ta said proudly.
"No wonder you were beaten into dogs by the Jurchens!"
Wang Yue said with emotion.
Four hundred and eighty temples in the Southern Dynasties, how many buildings are in the smoke and rain!
Obviously, the Khitan people have also been poisoned by this kind of poison, and those who like to repair this are not wasted, then hell, look at the density of this pagoda is really not worse than Kaifeng, and the height is not lower than Kaifeng, at least until now he only sees the pagoda without seeing the city tower, that is to say, these pagodas are higher than the city tower.
Twenty meters start.
In an era like this, any tall building can be a costly project.
When a country wastes all its enthusiasm on this thing, it basically loses its pioneering spirit.
The Khitans have gone from beating the Great Song Dynasty to begging for mercy to being beaten into dogs by the Jurchens, from being the arbiters of the entire East Asian order back then, to now being bullied by the Song dogs in their eyes, these things are indispensable, how to make a brave barbarian completely abolished? Let them learn to worship the Buddha, build temples, and build floating temples. Although the Great Song Dynasty is also full of temples, but at least the financial resources of the Great Song Dynasty are enough to support, and the Liao State has surpassed it in this regard with its far economic strength, so it is really a chronic suicide, in fact, later historians have an adjective in the evaluation of the Liao State......
to free the country.
Wang Yue's gaze passed over Xiao Ta's smokeless eyes, and a rushing river appeared in front of them......
Yongding River, or now known as the Sanggan River.
And there is also a bridge on this river, although the Lugou Bridge was built by the Jurchens, but the Khitan people are not more than the river, the amount of stone bridge construction is too large, it is better to use it to repair the floating tu, but it is not a big deal to build a pontoon bridge. Wang Yue took the feeling of vicissitudes of life, followed the envoy and the accompanying envoy in front of him to step on the pontoon bridge, crossed the Sanggan River and walked not far away, Wang Yue finally saw the Beijing city of this era.
It's not small.
Although it is not as good as Kaifeng City, it is also a big city.
In fact, the circumference of Xijin City in Nanjing, Liaoning, is known as 36 miles, which is smaller than Kaifeng City, and the circumference of Kaifeng Outer City is 48 miles.
But there is a big difference in the degree of prosperity.
The city wall is not covered with bricks, in fact, Kaifeng is not, but it is wrapped in important positions such as the city gate, as for the brick city wall on the most common Qingming Shanghe map in modern times, it is because it is not the original at all, it was painted by Qiu Ying, he painted not Kaifeng at all, but Suzhou in the Ming Dynasty, just borrowed a name.
Not to mention the city walls, even the style of the city gates is not the same at all.
The group continued onwards.
The city wall in the distance gradually became clear, and soon the road turned to face the city gate, and there were more pedestrians on the road, all curiously gathered on both sides to look at them, Wang Yue raised his hand very temperamentally to greet these compatriots who had been under foreign rule for one hundred and eighty years, and the compatriots all looked at him with vigilant eyes, which was understandable, after all, they had completely annihilated Liu Yanqing's 6,000 Song troops in the city a few months later.
People don't recognize what kind of compatriot the Great Song is.
In this way, they reached the near city gate, but the city gate was closed, and they did not enter the city, but went directly to a large post house on the east side of the road under the leadership of Niu Nim.
Eiheikan Pavilion.
"What's that?"
Wang Yue pointed to the west side of the road and asked curiously.
There is also a large walled garden, just like outside the Nanxun Gate in Kaifeng.
"Woba!"
Xiao Ta said without smoke.
"Aren't you going home?"
Wang Yue asked.
Xiao Ta did not smoke and sneered.
"You don't have a good reputation for me like this, but I'm innocent."
Wang Yue said.
"What does it have to do with me?"
Xiao Ta replied very dryly.
Wang Yue looked at her with a bit of a scratch, Xiao Ta raised his head and snorted arrogantly, from this point of view, she was still a little attractive, but ......
"You still have to brush your teeth!"
Wang Yue said sincerely.
Xiao Ta was so angry that she raised her foot to kick him, but Wang Yue grabbed her, she had to jump and jump, and every time she jumped, she could refresh Wang Yue's impression of her.
At this moment, there was a chaotic sound of horses' hooves, Wang Yue, who grabbed Xiao Ta Buyan's feet with one hand, raised his head, and then saw two officials with a large entourage stop in front of them, the first one looked at this scene in amazement, Xiao Ta Buyan's face finally turned red, and he quickly glared at Wang Yue, Wang Yue let go of his hand, she stood firm and saluted the man and then stood aside.
At this time, Ma Kuo and Niu Nim also came over.
This was the one who was sent by Jerechun to meet them, and who was going to act as a companion.
Niu Nim is the escort, even if they are taken to Xijin, the task will be completed, and then these two pavilion companions are responsible for accompanying them, this is also formal diplomacy, there are still a lot of rules, these two people are also very high-level, one is Xiao Ao, the envoy of the Quartet, he should be familiar with Xiao Ta.
The other is Zhang Ying of the Ministry of Rites......
"Where is Zhang Gong from?"
Wang Yue asked curiously.
"A certain person is from Yifeng, Pingzhou, I don't know where the deputy envoy is from?"
Zhang Ying said.
"Fengfu County, Qingfu Prefecture, how far is Pingzhou Yifeng from the Luanhe River?"
Wang Yue asked.
"Yifeng County is Luanzhou City."
Zhang Ying said.
"I see, how do you write this name? The contemptible man is a rough man, and he is not very literate. ”
Wang Yue said with a smile.
With a smile of implicit disdain, Zhang Ying wrote his name on the ground.
"Zhang Gong is really knowledgeable!"
Wang Yue sighed.
"Zhang Langzhong is a Jinshi and the first, and he is naturally knowledgeable!"
Xiao Ta said without smoke.
"Jinshi? Wang is really rude, he is so sloppy in front of a Wenqu star! ”
Wang Yue looked exaggerated in amazement, and hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted, as if he was very respectful.
It was quite a surprise to Zhang Ying.
"The deputy envoy is false, and a certain is only slightly familiar with the text."
He said.
"Gong Zhang, Wang has a reluctant request."
Wang Yue said.
"The deputy envoy doesn't hurt to speak."
Zhang Ying said.
"A certain name Yue, but the mountains and fields have no words, I have always wanted to find a full of famous Confucianism to take one, today I happened to meet Zhang Gong, I don't know if Zhang Gong can appreciate his face?"
Wang Yue said.
"This is easy, the leaper leaps also, the image of rising, how about Zifen?"
Zhang Ying said with a smile.
"Thank you Gong Zhang, Brother Zichong, you will call me Wang Zifen in the future!"
Wang Yue saluted with a happy face and said to Ma Kuo.
Xiao Ta next to him looked at his face in amazement, probably trying to get back the rough and brutal man from last night.
But alas, she failed.
This bastard in front of me is like a different person.
This Zhang Ying was the fuse of the Jingkang Change, and the warlord who later seized Pingzhou, although Zhang Jue was used in the records of the Great Song Dynasty, but in fact it was to avoid changing it, this is his real name, and this person is also worth using. Pingzhou, if you get it right, you can block Yuguan, in fact, the combat effectiveness of the Han people in the Youyan area is not low, Wanyan Yanmu was even defeated by them in Tuer Mountain, that is Wanyan Yanmu, the younger brother of Aguta, and the main participant in the Jingkang Change.
He was defeated by the Zhang family's Pingzhou army, so much so that even Ah Guta personally interrogated, and even locked him up for this reason, and did not release Zhang Ying until he was indestructible.
Such people deserve to be wooed.
