May 19.

Han Shizhong and Wu Jue teamed up to take Guihua Prefecture, and so far, the entire Xijing Province was completely included in the territory of Qi State.

And Yelu Dashi and Yelu Yu saw one south and one north, attacking the city and plundering the land all the way, like a bamboo.

Everywhere they went, the local Liao people killed the officials of the Jin State one after another to welcome the king into the city.

Under the rule of the sixth-class system of the Jin State, the Liao people were already miserable, and riots broke out frequently.

At present, Yelu Dashi came back from the city of Kedun, and Yelu Yujian carried the banner of anti-Jin Fuliao, and for a while, the servants gathered.

It is no exaggeration to say that almost every day, there are Liao people who come to take refuge.

Under the command of the two, a large number of former ministers and soldiers of the Liao State were quickly gathered.

Today's Jin Kingdom is in a hurry, and the main forces of the east and west roads are dragged by Nie Dong and Han Shizhong, and they can't move in Zhongjing Road.

Wanyan Zonghan and Wanyan Zongwang rarely abandoned their previous suspicions and temporarily joined forces to fight Qi.

The two of them knew that there would be no infighting at this juncture, otherwise they would be broken by the Qi State one by one.

The main army was dragged in the Nakakyo Road, the rear of the Shangjing Road, Yelu Dashi and Yelu Yujian were attacking the city and plundering the land, and at the same time, the Nakyo Road, Tokyo Road and the eastern area of the Kamikyo Road broke out one after another, and there were constantly Liao, Bohai, and Xi people in rebellion.

Although the scale of the riot was not large, there were too many of them, and they sprung up one after another, making Wanyan Wu beg for a while, so he could only send the Jin army to extinguish the fire.

The problems caused by the rapid expansion of the Jin State and the backwardness of the system completely exploded at this moment.

On this day, Han Zhen led the army to set off and embarked on the way home.

……

……

South.

Liangzhejiang Road, Quzhou.

On the official road, a large army escorted hundreds of civil and military officials and dragon chariots, marching quickly, as if there was a flood of fierce beasts behind.

Zhao Ji no longer had the calmness of the past, and sat in the dragon chariot with a panicked face, like a lost dog.

Zhao Kai also lost his previous spirit, he was frightened on the way to escape, and suffered a serious illness, lying in the dragon chariot at the moment, his face was pale, his eyes were slightly squinted, and he was half asleep.

The offensive of the Qi army was too rapid, and it took only one month to launch a surprise attack at the end of February, and it took only one month to conquer 46 counties in eight prefectures one after another.

Frightened, Zhao Ji abandoned Jinling as soon as possible, and under the escort of the 7,000 Shengjie army, he fled all the way south to Lin'an, Hangzhou.

However, before he had lived a few days of peace in Hangzhou, the Qi army sailors suddenly came from the sea.

The Song Army's naval division, in front of the Shenzhou battleship, was like a paper paste.

With only one face, it was completely torn apart by the five Shenzhou battle groups.

After holding on for half a month, Hangzhou City finally failed to stop the indiscriminate bombardment of the artillery on the Shenzhou battleship.

When the city was broken, Zhao Ji fled in panic again.

Fortunately, a sudden heavy rain blocked the pursuit of the Qi army, and also gave Zhao Ji and the Song army under his command a little time to breathe.

The south is humid and rainy, and now it is spring and summer, and the rain is abundant, and the Qi army's firearms and artillery are almost unusable.

However, even without firearms and artillery, the Qi army itself is extremely brave, far from being comparable to the Song army.

In field battles between the two sides, the Song army often collapsed at the first touch.

Up to now, the Song army no longer dared to fight with the Qi army, and when they encountered outside the city, they immediately fled from the wind, and only dared to rely on the city to defend the city.

Fortunately, the water network in the south is dense, and the Qi army is mostly northerners, and the further south they fight, the more unsuitable the soldiers are to the humid and hot climate of the south.

For a time, the offensive of the Qi army gradually slowed down.

At this time, the speed of the army gradually slowed down.

Feeling that the speed of the dragon chariot was slowing down, Zhao Ji, who had become a frightened bird, was suddenly startled, and hurriedly asked, "Li Yan, Li Yan, what happened?" ”

The next moment, the curtain of Long Yuan was lifted, and a flattering old face poked in: "Your Majesty, you will reach Xi'an County five miles ahead." ”

Call!

Hearing this, Zhao Ji couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, revealing a long-lost smile: "That's good." ”

These days, he has been tired of running for his life, although the dragon chariot is comfortable, but it is not as good as the palace, and how can he be so particular when fleeing for his life, the food is not as good as before, and he has not bathed for five days.

This made Zhao Ji, who had bathed three times a day in the past, where could he bear it.

"Weichen saw that he was late, and asked His Majesty and the Emperor Taishang to forgive him."

Not long after, Kou Zhongwen, the governor of Quzhou, came to pick up the car with officials.

Kou Zhongwen's ancestor is named Kou Zhun.

Relying on the ancestors of Mengyin, he made up for the real difference of Quzhou Zhizhou.

At this moment, Zhao Ji regained his former vigor, and did not get off the dragon, but just snorted lightly.

The great eunuch Li Yan has served Zhao Ji for so long, and he has already become a roundworm in his stomach, and he commanded in his throat: "The Emperor and His Majesty have been tired of traveling and traveling, and they are a little tired. ”

Kou Zhongwen hurriedly said: "It's Weichen's negligence, and he also invited His Majesty to enter the city, and Weichen has prepared the palace." ”

The army marched into the city.

After settling in the palace, the first thing Zhao Ji did was to burn incense and bathe.

changed into a brand-new regular uniform, and then met with Kou Zhongwen and other officials.

Kou Zhongwen is a small five-grade Zhizhou, how can he be qualified to see Zhao Ji on weekdays, and now he seized the opportunity and immediately offered his hospitality.

"The Emperor Taishang hunted in Quzhou, and there was no one around him, so it was mostly inconvenient, so Weichen specially selected a group of imperial servants a few days ago to serve the Emperor."

is the so-called full of warmth and lust, and Zhao Ji is already romantic, a few days ago, he was worried and tired, so he naturally didn't have the heart to think about this, but now that the offensive of the Qi army is blocked, he can't help but feel lonely.

Kou Zhongwen's actions scratched his itch, and he couldn't help but praise: "You have a heart." ”

"It is the duty of the ministers to share the worries and solve problems for the emperor."

Kou Zhongwen was overjoyed and continued: "I heard that the Emperor Taishang loved Huang Tingjian's calligraphy, Weichen deliberately searched the whole city and found three authentic works of Huang Tingjian, so as to show his heart. ”

Zhao Ji loved Huang Tingjian very much, and when he studied calligraphy in his early years, he copied Huang Tingjian's calligraphy.

even suppressed Shu Xue and destroyed Su Shi's inscriptions and anthologies, he also sent someone to find Huang Tingjian and told him that as long as he drew a clear line with Su Shi, he would be reinstated and regain his glory.

Huang Tingjian only replied: Su Shi is my teacher.

Within two years, Huang Tingjian died of hunger and cold.

After the death, Zhao Ji began to miss Huang Tingjian, but after a few years of 'falling to the Soviet Union', Huang Tingjian, as a student of Su Shi, basically destroyed the authentic works left by the imperial court, and then trying to collect them is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack.

Sure enough, Zhao Ji was suddenly overjoyed and asked, "Is it really Huang Tingjian's true work?" ”

Kou Zhongwen promised: "How dare Weichen deceive the emperor. ”

Zhao Ji asked hypocritically: "There is no coercion and temptation, just buy and sell?" ”

"The Emperor Taishang was relieved, and when he learned that he was going to dedicate it to the Emperor, the people of the three families were ecstatic, and they were glorified and did not take a penny."

Kou Zhongwen's words are true or false, Zhao Ji is too lazy to tell the difference, anyway, as long as he is comfortable listening to it in his heart.

People have limited time and energy, how can they waste their time and energy on such trivial things?

At this moment, the more Zhao Ji looked at Kou Zhongwen, the more pleasing he became, and asked, "I remember, you are Kou Zhongchou's descendant?" ”

Loyalty is Kou Zhun's nickname.

Kou Zhongwen forcibly suppressed the ecstasy in his heart and replied: "Back to Your Majesty, Lai Guogong is the great-grandfather of Weichen. ”

His efforts were not in vain.
