Lin'an City City, Royal Street, Yuan Xi Festival.

Compared with the liveliness and commercialization of the New Year's Day Festival in previous years, this year's New Year's Day Festival is much more solemn and less noisy.

There is only one reason, the Great Song Dynasty is going to the Northern Expedition.

After more than 100 years of traveling south, the Great Song Dynasty finally went north for the third time.

"Remember history! Restore the Central Plains! Donate money and materials as one! ”

A group of students dressed in the uniforms of Lin'an Normal School came along the street, they waved banners and shouted slogans, the students in the team carried donation boxes and handed out leaflets, and the people on the street continued to come forward to collect donations, which was very lively.

"The Northern Expedition of the King Division! It's finally time for this day! ”

"The king set the Central Plains Day in the north, and the family sacrifice did not forget to tell Naiweng! The good fortune of the country, the good fortune of the country! ”

In the crowd, some people sighed one after another.

"I'm afraid that it's the same as before, and it will end hastily, but it will harm us poor people!"

"Yes! Desperate soldiers, I really think that Tatar is easy to deal with! I'm not going to donate money anyway! ”

A few spectators complained disdainfully.

"Sun Er, shut up!"

"Thursday, why so much nonsense?"

The people around him immediately turned their faces and reprimanded the two mean-speaking people.

"Sun Er, do you think that the current court is still the same as before? You idle idiot! ”

"My Great Song Dynasty border army has successively recovered Hexi, Shaanxi and Huaidong, and killed the Tatar farts and urine, who is the opponent? What bullshit are you playing on Thursday! ”

The crowd was furious and reprimanded, and Thursday became angry and replied indignantly.

"It's not okay to talk about it, are you the emperor?"

"It's okay to say anything, it's not okay to say bad things about the Great Song Dynasty!"

"On Thursday, I just won't be allowed to say it. What can you do? ”

The crowd was still going to attack it, and Thursday had already left with a black face.

Everyone was stupid and ridiculed Sun Erlai again.

"Sun Er, don't go! Donate money! ”

Sun Er also walked away boringly, and everyone coaxed one after another, showing no mercy.

With the victory of the Great Song Dynasty officials and troops one after another, the Great Song Dynasty sailors opened up overseas, and the patriotic enthusiasm and national self-esteem of the Song people were also fully stimulated.

If the country does not know that there is a people, then the people do not know that there is a country. If the country loves its people, the people will love its country.

The military soldiers are strong and strong, invincible, the civil officials are clear and clear, and the improvement of the people's lives is visible to the naked eye.

“…… Thirty fame, dust and earth, eight thousand miles of clouds and moons. Don't wait, the young man's head is white...... Zhuang is hungry for Hulu meat, laughing and thirsty for Xiongnu blood. ...... from the beginning"

The students' loud singing sounded, everyone applauded, and no one paid attention to Sun Er, who was "on the run", and donated money one after another.

"Second brother, you and your sister-in-law are also here to donate money?"

Seeing Zhang Er and his daughter-in-law and son appear, everyone was surprised.

"Fifth Uncle Zheng, what's so strange about this? Wang Shi's Northern Expedition, I am also a citizen of the Great Song Dynasty, so I should do my best! ”

Zhang Er, Zhang San, Zhang Zhongxia's elder brother, was full of smiles, and despite his wife's pull, he just stuffed a few pieces into the students' donation boxes, and also got a small red flag.

"Second brother, your third brother is a general of the imperial court, you should go to Yujin Garden to donate money!"

Some people said with a smile on their faces, with endless envy, jealousy and hatred in their eyes.

A scoundrel on the streets of Lin'an can also become a general on the battlefield, and the fate of life is really wonderful.

"It's not all the same there. It's just a heart! ”

Zhang Er said with a smile and applauded the fundraising team that was singing.

Wang Shi's Northern Expedition, his younger brother will also go north with the army, with thousands of troops and horses, the general of the Great Song Dynasty, I feel that my breathing is not smooth when I think about it, and my heart beats faster.

"Dad, I want to go to Yujin Garden to see, I heard that it is lively, there are a lot of delicious and fun things!"

Zhang Chengen, Zhang's eight-year-old son, suddenly screamed.

Yujin Garden is the place of donation announced by the imperial court, today is the first day, I heard that the court members and princes and nobles, as well as the celebrities of Lin'an City will go, I think it must be very lively.

"Official, why don't we go to Yujin Garden to have a look?"

Zhang's second daughter-in-law had a white and fat face, and a layer of expectation floated in her eyes.

"What? Do you want to go again? You're not afraid to be recognized and donate again? ”

Zhang Er looked at his wife in surprise and said.

Yujin Garden is a fundraiser organized by the Imperial Military Department, and it must be very lively, and most of the people who go are fundraisers. The wife was afraid of being recognized, so she had to slap her swollen face and become fat. Unexpectedly, this will make my wife change her mind again.

"Go check it out. Just watch the excitement. Besides, my son wants to go too. ”

Zhang's second daughter-in-law was a little embarrassed.

My husband and brother are generals, even if they donate money, they have face, and there is no shortage of money in the family anyway.

"Okay. Then check it out! ”

The younger brother is a general of the imperial court, and the elder brother of the general seems to have nothing to be unpopular.

At best, it's just a little more money to raise donations.

In front of the gate of Yujin Garden, there is a lively scene, there are hawkers everywhere, and the people are surging, coming from all directions, and they are going to the park one after another.

"Second brother, sister-in-law, you are here too!"

The forbidden army officer who was patrolling with a knife at the door saw Zhang Er's family, with a smile on his face, and hurriedly greeted him.

"Brother Li Xiong, today is your duty. Great work. ”

Seeing that it was his younger brother's former "little brother" Li Xiong, who was now also a forbidden army officer in the imperial court, Zhang Er was sincerely happy.

"It's not hard! Speaking of which, it's still the third brother's hard work! Fight on the battlefield, make contributions, so not majestic! ”

Li Xiong said with a smile on his face:

"Second brother, did the third brother have a letter, what did he say?"

"I've just received the letter! Your third brother is now the deputy capital of Shaanxi Road, commanding thousands of troops and horses, and he said that he may have to go on the Northern Expedition with the army and will not be able to come back. The last thing he can let go of is you brothers. He also asked if your mother's illness was better, and if she had received the medicine she sent. ”

Zhang Er was warm-hearted and said it all in one go.

"Roger! Much better! Much better! ”

Li Xiong's eyes were hot, and he quickly raised his head, for fear that tears would flow out.

"Okay now, your third brother, Du Er, Gao Hu, Gao Guoshou, and Wang Gui, they are all in the Northwest Army, and they are all court generals who command thousands of troops and horses. It's Du San, alas, don't mention how uncomfortable it is! ”

Zhang Er shook his head, his face full of regret.

Du San was the commander of the Cham Naval Army, but because he violated the laws of the imperial court, he was thrown to the end and sent to Africa. They also knew in their hearts that if it weren't for the emperor's nostalgia, Du San would have fallen to the ground.

"Second brother, don't talk about these bad things."

Li Xiong waved his hand and called the soldiers of the forbidden army on the side.

"You all open your eyes and show me clearly, this is the second brother and sister-in-law. In the future, if they come to Yujin Garden to play, they will be entertained, if anyone dares to slack off, don't blame me for turning my face! ”

"Yes, General!"

Several soldiers of the forbidden army looked ignorant, but they still obeyed the military orders.

"Don't think I'm pretending to be a businessman. Listen up, the second brother is the third brother of Zhang's brother, do you understand now? ”

"Third Brother Zhang?"

One officer was still confused, and the other suddenly realized and blurted out.

"Third Brother Zhang! Zhang Zhengsi Zhang Zhongxia! ”

"Not bad! Zhang Zhongxia, the third brother of Zhang, the deputy capital of Shaanxi Road, my Li Xiong's fate nobleman, is closer than my brother! ”

Li Xiong was serious, and several soldiers of the forbidden army were in awe, clasping their fists and saluting together.

"I've seen the second brother! I've seen my second sister-in-law! ”

Zhang Sanzhang is thinking about Zhang Zhongxia, from a splash of skin in Lin'an City to a general who guards one side, the emperor gave the name, what a glory, and it is also the legend and pride in the mouths of the forbidden army in Yujin Garden.

"You're welcome, brothers! You're welcome! ”

Zhang Er hugged his fists in return, and his daughter-in-law were all smiling, and their hearts were happy.

has such a prominent brother, it can be said that he is a glorious ancestor!

"Dad, I will be like the third uncle in the future, make contributions and make a name for eternity!"

Zhang Chengen, Zhang's youngest son, suddenly spoke.

"Good! Chengen, then you have to study hard, practice martial arts diligently, and go to Jinling to study hard in the martial arts hall in the future and become a general! ”

Li Xiong said with a smile and made a gesture of please.

"Second brother, second sister-in-law, please inside, I'll lead the way in front of my head."

On the campus of Yujin Garden, there was a lot of people, all the people who came to watch the fundraising, there were too many people, and the water around the high platform with colorful flags fluttering could not be drained, and everyone was looking at the stage.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the old man is Wei Liaoweng, the secretary of the Great Song Dynasty Military Department, everyone be quiet and listen to me!"

Wei Liaoweng stood on the stage and shouted loudly, signaling the people below to be quiet.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Wang Shi's Northern Expedition is determined to restore the Central Plains, occupy the sixteen states of Yanyun, and complete its work in one battle, in exchange for hundreds of years of peace in the Great Song Dynasty. All the people of the Great Song Dynasty, regardless of men, women, old and young, and land, regardless of east, west, north and south, have the obligation to share the worries of the country. It doesn't matter how much you donate, but with a patriotic feeling. I'll talk less nonsense. Let's donate and contribute to the Northern Expedition of the King Division! ”

Wei Liaoweng's words were concise and to the point, and the people in the audience were in high spirits, shouting loudly and cheering.

"Zhao Hong, the son of the Great Song Dynasty, donated 200,000 pieces of silver to seal the pile!"

Wei Liaoweng personally took a roll call, which instantly ignited the enthusiasm of the people in the audience, and the earth-shattering cheers followed.

"Hooray! Banzai! Hooray! ”

The emperor was frugal, did not wear brocade, did not repair the palace room, and strictly prohibited extravagance in the palace, but donated 200,000 yuan at once. This king of the Great Song Dynasty deserves his name for the country and the people.

When the cheers of the people weakened, Wei Liaoweng continued to roll call.

"Mrs. Yan, the concubine of this dynasty, donate 1,000 yuan!"

"Mrs. Rongguo, Princess Yi of this dynasty, donate 10,000 yuan!"

"Chen Qi, the shopkeeper of Lin'an Chen's bookstore, donated 100,000 yuan!"

In the exclamation of the people, Chen Qi, the shopkeeper of Chen's bookstore, took a plate of meeting and handed it to Wei Liaoweng on stage. The two bowed their hands, both smiling.

"Shopkeeper Chen, say a few words to the big guy!"

Wei Liweng laughed and asked Chen Qi to speak.

Chen Qi laughed, cleared his throat, and said loudly:

"Ladies and gentlemen, in Xia Chenqi, the shopkeeper of Chen's bookstore in Lin'an City, voluntarily donated 100,000 yuan. Don't worry about how much money you donate, as long as you have a patriotic heart and do what you can. When the Northern Expedition of my Great Song Dynasty King Division triumphed, everyone did their part, and they were all heroes of the successful Northern Expedition of my Great Song Dynasty King Division! ”

"Good!"

Wei Liaoweng took the lead in applauding, and the audience applauded.

"Lin'an Shimin Ge Hong, donate 50,000 yuan!"

The emperor's father-in-law and mother-in-law appeared and donated a huge amount of money, which blinded everyone's eyes again.

"Thank you, Mrs. Guozhang!"

Wei Liaoweng kept applauding, and when the Zhou couple stepped down, he stepped forward, opened a box, and put it on the table.

"Wei Liaoweng, the secretary of the Ministry of War, donate 30,000 yuan!"

The roll call of the officials caused another round of cheers. Wei Liaoweng is a Qing official, the emperor's right-hand man, he donated so much, it is enough to be real.
