Chapter 12: The Storm Pavilion

Lin'an Mansion, Dali Temple, Fengbo Pavilion.

The cold spring on the side of the trolley bridge is murmuring, the cold wind is blowing, the pines and cypresses are verdant, standing in front of the Fengbo Pavilion, looking at the octagonal eaves to the sky, the black tile orange pavilion, Zhao Hong's heart is depressed, and he can't speak.

In the eleventh year of Shaoxing in the Southern Song Dynasty, Yue Fei, a generation of national heroes, was falsely accused of "rebellion" and imprisoned in Lin'an Dali Temple. The traitorous minister Qin Hui's henchmen supervised Yu Shi Wan and personally tried him and tortured Yue Fei to extract a confession. At the same time, the Song-Jin peace talks, both sides regarded the anti-war faction as a thorn in their side. On the night of the Chinese New Year's Eve of the eleventh year of Shaoxing, Zhao Gou of Song Gaozong ordered Yue Fei to be killed, when he was Chinese New Year's Eve nine years old. Yue Fei's general Zhang Xian and his son Yue Yun were also beheaded at the city gate.

In the same year, Song, Jin, Shaoxing and the following peace agreements reached:

(1) Song Xiangjin called the minister, "the descendants of the world, keep the minister's festival", and Zhao Gong, the king of Song Kang, was the emperor.

(2) Demarcate the boundary, bounded by the middle stream of the Huai River in the east, Dasanguan in the west, Song in the south, and Jin in the north. Song cut Tang, Deng Erzhou and Shang and Qin Erzhou most of the gold.

(3) The Song Dynasty paid 250,000 taels of silver and silk to Jin Na every year, and since the twelfth year of Shaoxing, it was moved to Saisi Prefecture by the Huaishui every spring to pay.

What kind of dark age is it that the heroes who shed their blood for the country were tortured and killed?

How can human nature be so despicable and shameless? What is the meaning of their existence?

The reason why he can't wait to come here is also to admire and admire this famous national hero in his mind.

Zhao Hong faced the Fengbo Pavilion, bent down ninety degrees, and bowed deeply.

For the indomitable soul, for those patriots who were hurt, salute.

"Xu Xianggong, thank you for coming with me, I'm tired."

Zhao Hong thanked Xu Xuan, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, who accompanied him.

It's already a holiday, and it's Chinese New Year's Eve in two or three days. Disturbing other people's rest, especially old comrades, Zhao Hong was a little embarrassed.

It seems that his predecessor is not useless, he has a good relationship with this old man, and there are some supporters behind him.

"Your Highness, the old man's mansion is nearby, it's just a matter of lifting his legs. The king of Hubei is loyal and martyrdom, and it is clear every day. Every time the old man passed by here, he was indignant and uncomfortable. ”

Xu Xuan's expression was gloomy and angry, and his gray beard swayed in the wind.

In the thirty-second year of Shaoxing, Song Tingnai buried Yue Fei in Qixialing in West Lake. In the fourth year of Chunxi, Song Xiaozong ordered Taichang Temple to draw up a nickname for Yue Fei, and the first year was "Zhongshu", and the following year was set as "Wumu". In the fourth year of Song Ningzong Jiatai, Yue Fei was posthumously named the king of Hubei and posthumously presented to the Taishi.

Therefore, Yue Fei may be called "Yue Wumu", also known as "King of E".

As for the so-called "Wu Mu's Testament", it was not written by Yue Fei himself, and it was not recorded how to use soldiers to form a formation, but Yue Fei's descendants recorded Yue Fei's boxing skills and Yue's gun routines after Yue Fei's death. Because Yue Fei's nickname after his death was Wu Mu, this book was named "Wu Mu's Testament".

"Xu Xianggong, what you said is very true. Outside the mountain, the Qingshan Building is outside the building, and the West Lake singing and dancing will be closed. Now among the Song people, there are no heroes anymore, and few people want to restore the Central Plains. ”

Zhao Hong sighed, and was a little depressed.

How can the sluggish Jiangnan compete with the invincible rolling iron cavalry in the north?

"Qin Hui, a dog thief, did such an evil thing, and he actually died a good death, and he was honored after death. What a ridiculous thing! ”

Xu Xuan couldn't hold it back, and said it angrily.

In the twenty-fifth year of Shaoxing, Qin Hui died of illness at the age of sixty-six, and was posthumously presented by the Song court as the king of Shen, nicknamed "loyalty".

In the second year of Kaixi, Song Ningzong issued an edict to Han Yanxuan to send troops to the Northern Expedition, and in April, he pursued the prince of Qin Hui and changed his falsehood and ugliness.

In the first year of Jiading, Shi Miyuan took power, actively pursued the policy of reducing gold and begging, and restored Qin Hui's title of King Shen and the title of loyalty.

"Xu Xianggong, be cautious, be careful that the wall has ears!"

Zhao Hong glanced around and persuaded softly.

This white-bearded old man has a pretty violent temper.

"Your Highness, aren't you not used to looking at treacherous appearances, and dare to confront him in the main hall? Why, even Qin Hui, an ancient traitor, is afraid? ”

Xu Xuan glanced at Zhao Hong contemptuously, as if he couldn't get used to his cowardice and double-facedness.

"A piece of paper "Shaoxing Peace Conference", so that my Great Song Dynasty lost the horse farm in Hedong and Guanzhong, whether it is the "Longxing Northern Expedition", or the "Kaixi Northern Expedition", my Great Song Dynasty was defeated again and again, the reason for this is not that my Great Song Dynasty has no cavalry, and can only rely on infantry and Jin people's elite cavalry to fight. If you want to regain the lost ground, I'm afraid you can only dream about it! ”

The white-bearded old man sighed, making Zhao Hong's brows tighten and his heart heavy.

The most fatal thing about the "Shaoxing Peace Conference" is not only the lack of horse farms, Qin Hui's proposal of "southerners from the south, northerners from the north", so that from then on, the northern Han people not only became completely nominally subjects of the Jin people, but also could not flee south, otherwise they would be repatriated. This trick can be described as extremely vicious.

There is also Shi Miyuan's father, Shi Hao, the prime minister of the Song Xiaozong Dynasty, who put forward the term "reformed people" and despised the Han people in the north. It's cheap and good, shameless!

The court of the Southern Song Dynasty abandoned the Han people in the north, how could the Han people in the north love the Southern Song Dynasty. The bereaved people were in tears, and they looked south to Wang Shi for another year. It's just the conjecture and wishful thinking of the paste-headed Lu Fangweng.

As for a "reformed person" big fool like Xin Jiaxuan, it is purely because his head is in the water that he will believe in such a soft and muddy bastard court.

"Hearing the old man of the Central Plains, Chang Nanwang and Yu Baojing. So that the pedestrians came here, loyal and indignant. There are tears. Xu Xianggong, don't be discouraged. Trust me, something good will happen tomorrow! ”

Zhao Hong laughed and patted the white-bearded old man's shoulder cordially.

It is said that the Song Dynasty scholars are useless, they are not enough to succeed, and they are more than enough to fail. Anyway, there are still some useful people.

It's a pity that the number of people is too small, useful, but also limited.

"Your Highness, there are tears pouring out, and you are still pretending to be happy? Your Highness, you have offended the adulterer, but be careful! ”

Xu Xuan solemnly reminded Zhao Hong, and suddenly asked suspiciously:

"Your Highness, when you were in the court, you said that you would make those firearms, is it true or false?"

"Xu Xianggong, I want to say that I won't, do you believe it?"

Zhao Hong was noncommittal. With his nearly 1,000 years of knowledge, it doesn't seem to be that difficult to make gunpowder.

"The world is unpredictable, and the vicissitudes of the sea are uncertain. Even with firearms, future generations do not have the soul of their ancestors to move forward. ”

Xu Xuan sighed faintly.

Shi Miyuan was in power, and the imperial power was sluggish, even if there were hot-blooded people, it would be difficult to get ahead.

Zhao Hong was depressed and said goodbye to Xu Xuan.

An unborn hero like Yue Fei, the Great Song Dynasty is the only one, so easy to have again.

"Why is this Jiguo Gong different from before?"

Xu Xuan stroked his gray beard and shook his head suspiciously.

Out of the gate of the Dali Temple, the guard Xu Sheng took a businessman of about forty and waited outside the door.

"Your Highness, Shopkeeper Xu of Qingpingfang is looking for you!"

"Shopkeeper Xu, are you looking for me, is there anything wrong?"

Zhao Hong looked at the big fat man with an anxious face and asked curiously.

Even if there is something in this shopkeeper Xu, he should go to the guild and let them come forward to solve it.

The guild is equivalent to the chamber of commerce in later generations, but it is extremely powerful, and it is full of big people with heads and faces.

How did he find himself directly?

"Your Highness, the villain's rice shop depends on you to take care of it on weekdays. This time, you're going to help the villain! ”

Xu Fatzi was sweating profusely, and he was making trouble again and again, and it seemed that he was really in trouble.

"Shopkeeper Xu, you profiteers, you have a big family, and there are still things you can't solve?"

Zhao Hong made a joke about Shopkeeper Xu.

can rely on him to take care of him, he must also be a famous grain merchant in Lin'an City, with a lot of wealth, hands and eyes, and a good friendship with officials of Lin'an Mansion, some small things can't trouble him at all.

"Your Highness, that's what happened!"

Shopkeeper Xu calmed down and spoke 1510.

"Shopkeeper Xu, in this way, it was your partner who had an accident and wanted His Highness to solve it?"

As soon as Xu Sheng said this, Zhao Hong immediately understood.

Merchants sit on Jia, and there is a clear distinction. In the Song Dynasty, the merchants of the Song Dynasty were huge, and if the foreign merchants wanted to buy and sell locally, they needed the local merchants to be able to sell, otherwise they would not be able to sell their own goods.

Xu's shopkeeper's "merchant" business partner injured the tax collector and the "blocker" of Lin'an Mansion because of a dispute, and was arrested by the Yamen of Lin'an Mansion.

"Your Royal Highness, Yin Wu Jing and Wu Xianggong of Lin'an Mansion don't eat soft and hard, they have to do official business, not to mention the seizure of goods, and severely punish those merchants. Wu Xianggong is good friends with you, so you deign to go and help the villain once! ”

Shopkeeper Xu had an earnest look on his fat face, and Zhao Hong pretended to think about it for a while and nodded.

"Shopkeeper Xu, then I'll help you once."

Yin Wujing of Lin'an Mansion, I talked to him myself, and he seems to have a good relationship.

The so-called "barricades" are a group of temporary workers hired by government tax collectors to collect road taxes. Most of these "barrages" were local ruffians and hooligans, who, like the officials, had no money and relied on taking money from the collected commercial taxes.

No need to ask, Xu's shopkeeper's business partner must have been blackmailed, so he was angry and moved in a fit of anger.

However, these people are also violent, and they can actually defeat the "blockade", which seems to be a bit violent.

Zhao Hong walked a few steps and suddenly stopped.

"Xu Sheng, doesn't Yue Fei have a mansion in Lin'an Mansion?"

The dignified ministers of the state don't even have a house, right? Could it be that after Yue Fei was killed, he was confiscated by the Southern Song Dynasty court?

"Your Highness, after Yue Fei's father and son were given to death on the Chinese New Year's Eve of the eleventh year of Shaoxing, his mansion in Lin'an City was also confiscated by the government, and then transformed into Taixue."

Xu Sheng cautiously introduced, because he found that Zhao Hong was depressed today and had a tendency to go berserk.

"Death? Sure enough, it was a hook-up between power and rape, and the spirit and body were eaten and wiped clean, and there was such a brazen ...... in the world."

Zhao Hong's face was pale, his body trembled slightly, and he strode away.

If it weren't for the Jin soldiers' large-scale invasion of the south, the bitter admonition of the students, and the discouragement of the army, how could Song Xiaozong, the good son of Song Gaozong Zhao Go, hide and pursue Yue Fei as "Wu Mu"!

To say that the former Prime Minister Han Chuxuan was simple and rude, first posthumously crowned Yue Fei as the king of Hubei, and then cut off Qin Hui's prince, and changed the nickname to Miao Chou, which was recited for a while, and it was very happy.

It's a pity that Shi Miyuan controlled the government, pursued the policy of reducing gold and begging, and restored Qin Hui's title of King Shen and the title of loyalty.

This thief excludes dissidents, is ruthless, and brings disaster to the country and the people...... Damn it!

Shopkeeper Xu and Xu Sheng both bowed their heads and were speechless, and followed closely behind Zhao Hong, who was black-faced.

In the lobby of Lin'an Mansion, Yin Wujing of Lin'an Mansion smiled and asked Zhao Hong to sit down.

"Your Highness, you can come to Lin'an Mansion, Xiaguan is really shining here!"

Zhao Hong came in person, but he had nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace. Take a look at the shopkeeper Xu next to him who is smiling like a chrysanthemum, and you can see what is going on.

"Wu Xianggong, I don't hide it, I came here today, but I have something to ask for."

Zhao Hong's words were concise and to the point, and in just a few words, he said the things entrusted by the shopkeeper Xu.

"Wu Xianggong, this is a little meaning, not a tribute, please smile."

Zhao Hong made a look, and Shopkeeper Xu hurriedly stepped forward and put a small wooden box on the table.

"Your Highness, these little things are bothering you to run in person."

Wu Jing opened the wooden box, saw the contents inside, and smiled.

"Shopkeeper Xu, the official is not welcome. Just approaching the end of the year, there are many officials in Lin'an Mansion who have no money for the New Year, thank you! ”

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be!"

Shopkeeper Xu was full of smiles and finally put his mind at ease.

Previously, Wu Jing was selfless and hard, but as soon as Zhao Hong came out, Wu Jing didn't even bother to say polite words. It seems that with Zhao Hong, the prince, coming forward, it is really invincible.

Zhao Hong smiled, secretly disdainful in his heart.

Accepting bribes is high-sounding, which is really shameless. Officials don't have money to celebrate the New Year, what should the people do?
