Chapter 61: The Broken Wheel of History Turns Silently
Thank you Feidu and the East Emperor of Heaven for the two children's boots for the tip......
There is also the Western Army, which Tong Guan led the most jīng sharp, and even the remnants of the Liao State who were beaten by the Jurchens were beaten by the Jurchens...... It's just filthy. Wenfei will definitely not repeat the mistakes of the past!
Seeing Wen Fei laughing, Ma Zhi was a little confused. I was about to speak, but I heard Wen Fei laugh and say, "Do you believe that history is inevitable?"
Ma Zhi didn't even understand what Wen Fei meant by this. looked at this Shang Father suspiciously, but saw Wen Fei just laughing, and said loudly: "Come on, give me a seat!"
Ma Zhi's heart was put back in his stomach, no matter what nerves this Shang father had just had, but he had obviously become interested in his advances.
"What do you think of those Jurchens?" Wen Fei asked.
"Those Jurchens are fierce, especially the Jurchens, who are even fiercer, like savages. But even the Khitan warriors did not dare to fight these Jurchens.
They live in those mountains covered with dense forests between the white mountains and black waters. Fishing and hunting for a living, every year to the Liao Emperor to pay tribute to horses, Haidongqing, gold and pearls, bees, pine seeds and ginseng. Ma Zhi briefly introduced the situation of the Jurchens.
He was afraid that Wen Fei would underestimate these Jurchens, and said: "The Liao Kingdom is now in chaos, Emperor Tianzuo is mediocre and incompetent, and the Liao court keeps asking for tribute and desperately squeezes those Jurchens. Not long ago, the Jurchens had already decided to rebel against the Liao State!"
Every year, the river water of the Chūn Heaven Mixed with the River melts, and the Emperor of the Liao State wants to come to the river to dig ice and fish, shè hunting for fun, called "chūn water".
The chiefs of the Jurchen tribes within a range of thousands of miles also came to make a pilgrimage to the Liao emperor, and they paid tribute to the products of each tribe, and showed off the amount and weight of the goods they offered, and this competition was called "fighting the Jurchens".
This year, Emperor Tianzuo was stationed in Chūn Prefecture, and Wanyan sent Aguta to lead a pilgrimage delegation to Chūn Prefecture for Hajj, which happened to meet the "Head Fish Banquet".
After the emperor of the Liao State caught the first fish in the mixed river, he wanted to use it very solemnly to worship the gods of heaven and earth and the ancestral gods, and set up a banquet to celebrate, which was the "head fish feast".
At the banquet, everyone gathered and drank freely, and Emperor Tianzuo took advantage of the wine and ordered the chiefs to perform songs and dances, and the chiefs obeyed their orders and danced to the emperor one by one.
When it was Ah Guta's turn, Ah Guta was unwilling to suffer this humiliation and refused to listen to the order, so that Emperor Tianzuo almost sent someone to kill Ah Guda.
Ah Gu escaped and hated the emperor of Liao very much. After fleeing back to the tribe, in the autumn, there was a famine among the Jurchen tribes, and hunger was everywhere, and the strong were thieves. Ah Gudi ordered the Jurchen tribes to "not levy for three years", which was like a rain that came to Ganyu, and the Jurchen people were very supportive and attached to the Yan Department one after another. Today's Wanyan tribe has become the strongest tribe among the Jurchens, and they are even bent on killing Emperor Tianzuo to avenge this humiliation!
Wen Fei was silent, this story Wen Fei has of course read it on the materials of later generations. But speaking from the mouth of this key figure who leveraged history, Wen Fei was still full of feelings.
In any case, even if the Jurchens destroyed the Northern Song Dynasty, they were naturally hostile to his Wen Da Shang's father. But Wen Fei had to admit that Wanyan Aguda was a real hero. It's a template for the main character in a web novel!
A small tribe of just over a thousand people, who were almost barbarians, refused to be humiliated by the emperor of a powerful empire with millions of cavalry, and rose up in anger until the destruction of such a powerful empire......
Therefore, the truth is more absurd than any imagination. And the corresponding ambitious figures, bloody men, even if they look through the history books, they can't find a few. Even in a hostile position, Wen Fei had to admire!
The situation in Liao was much worse than the Great Song monarchs and ministers imagined. Ma Zhi continued: "Emperor Tianzuo is the leading faint monarch of the Liao State since he saw it, and he trusts Xiao Fengxian, Xiao Delidi and other ministers, blindly hunting, living a wild and luxurious life, and ignoring national politics. , drunk and addicted, birds are scarce. Repel the loyal and good, and appoint the small group. Creatures near and far are all harshly governed. As a result, the struggle between the clan nobles has intensified, the people have revolted one after another, and the leaders of various tribes have also raised troops against Liao, which is already the end of the day!"
He also said: "Now that the Great Liao is in turmoil, it is impossible to raise troops to support the Western Xia, let alone attack the Great Song Dynasty. Ouyang Shilang came this time, just to intimidate!"
Wen Fei thought about it and said, "These things, you can talk about them later, I'll take you to see the official's house!"
Ma Zhi was surprised and delighted, and said, "I don't dare to ask for ears if I want to!"
When Wen Fei took Ma Zhi directly into the palace, although Ma Zhi knew that Wen Fei was arrogant in the Great Song Dynasty. But seeing that Wen Fei didn't need to be informed, he took a stranger all the way into the deep palace, unimpeded, and couldn't help but feel shocked. I secretly said in my heart that this Shang Father, I am afraid that the status of the Great Song Dynasty is so high that it is still beyond the imagination of the land!
Seeing Zhao Ji, Ma Zhi re-told the matter. Zhao Ji was immediately overjoyed, looked up to the sky and laughed: "God really helps me! Father Shang, this time there is hope for a day!"
Wen Fei secretly said in his heart, I'm afraid you would never think that the Jurchen is your real enemy. It's just that these words will naturally not be said in front of Ma Zhi. smiled at the moment: "The envoy of the Liao State is lying and threatening, but in fact, he can't send troops at all." Let's ignore him, let's destroy Xixia first!"
Zhao Ji nodded again and again, thinking deeply. Tsushima Zhi said: "I see that you cherish your homeland and are loyal. Since this is the case, don't go to the Liao Kingdom and stay in the Great Song Dynasty. I gave you the surname Zhao, well, I will call you Zhao Liangsi! I named you the Zhilong Pavilion, and you were repaired by the Wendian. When you're done, you'll be rewarded!"
Ma Zhi was immediately moved and said, "The emperor's great grace makes the ministers feel jī tears." However, the usefulness of the minister in the Liao State is much stronger than that in the Great Song Dynasty. For example, today, Emperor Zuo ignores the government and politics, and people are confused. Yanyun and other places are the homeland of my Han family, and there are many people like ministers who cherish their homeland. The minister is willing to go back and contact these Han family sons and daughters to answer for the king!"
Zhao Ji was immediately moved, and said continuously: "Good, good." You must pay attention to safety when you go back, and tell those Han family children, what Shang's father said, what Shang's father said for my Han family, those who fight for luck for my Han family, can be immortals after rì. And as long as I vote for the Great Song Dynasty, I will not be stingy with my official position, and even knighted!"
Ma Zhi said: "The minister must bring His Majesty's words!" and was rewarded by Zhao Ji with a large sum of money, so he left.
Zhao Ji laughed: "Father Shang, God really helped me this time." I can't imagine that Emperor Tianzuo of Liao State is so faint, and the country is in such a mess, and he dares to send someone to threaten me. I must build him a house in the city of Tokyo, and invite him to come and live sooner or later!"
You are really a flashlight, only shining on others, not on yourself. Speaking of mediocrity, in fact, the two of you are almost not much different, don't talk about the boss 2......
But people are often like this, although Wen Fei knows that Zhao Ji is a well-known and mediocre king of the dead country. But the relationship between the two is close, and Zhao Ji can also be said to believe in himself wholeheartedly. So Wen Fei obviously knew that this thing was a faint one, but he couldn't bring up the bad feelings. It's like a lot of people do all kinds of evil, but in the eyes of family and friends, they are a good person......
In Wen Fei's eyes, Zhao Ji is not qualified to be the emperor, but as a friend, it is very suitable. If you really want to let a wise and martial emperor sit in this position, I'm afraid you won't trust yourself so wholeheartedly!
Forget it, this dumb king is a faint king! As long as he doesn't get in the way of changing history. Speaking of which, he should really be closer to Zhao Kai, the king of Yun. Come to a future emperor to cultivate......
Anyway, the crown prince Zhao Heng, Wen Fei had already made up his mind, and when he found an opportunity, he would definitely pull him off the throne of the prince!
"Yes, when will the Martyrs' Shrine that Father Shang said be built! When the time comes, I will also go to personally help the sacrifice!" Zhao Ji said. He looked at the sky again and said, "It hasn't rained for two or three months, and I see that it is about to be ploughed, and if it doesn't rain again, I'm afraid there will be a drought this year!"
Speaking of this, Zhao Ji's mood was a little low. He no longer cares about political affairs, but out of the instinct of an emperor, he still knows exactly how severe the drought will affect his empire!
"Your senior brother Mr. Lin has begged for rain several times, but he has not succeeded! If you can't ask for rain again, it will be a little bad!" Zhao Ji said.
Speaking of this topic, Wen Fei didn't dare to answer at all. Lin Lingsu couldn't ask for rain, and he had no choice, so he just said: "Speaking of my Senior Brother Lin, he has too many disciples now, and some of them are doing evil and ruining the reputation of my Taoism." If the official family has a chance, they can help me take care of it!"
Zhao Ji didn't care at all when he heard this, and said: "When my Taoism is expanding now, it is naturally a little muddy and sandy, and it is not a big deal. Shang's father looked at my court, loyal ministers Jiān ministers have, for example, Cai Jing is arrogant and extravagant, not to mention Cai Jing's last relocation of the house, will be extended to Fugongjiang Road Changlu Gate, across the city for the compound road Zhengqiao (that is, the overpass) house, in order to facilitate the exchange, for this reason, forced to destroy dozens of houses. ”
It was the first time Wen Fei had heard these things, and he was shocked. Unexpectedly, he refused to forcibly demolish the residents, so he used Cai Jing's mansion. But he didn't expect that this goods would demolish dozens of families in a blink of an eye and build their own new houses......
Zhao Ji commented on the courtiers around him one by one: "There is also Tong Guan's heart for fame, but is it understandable, after all, he is a eunuch, and he can't be a wife and son, so it's not bad to ask for a name in history...... There are also many courtiers, all of whom are corrupt and pervert the law. But I can't help it, I still have to rely on these people to rule the world. I only take them big festivals, and small problems are inevitable. Father Shang doesn't have to be too demanding!"
Wen Fei was even more surprised in his heart, sure enough, it was not in vain that Zhao Ji had been the emperor for so long. The courtiers also understand this way, and they are not as incompetent as outsiders think. It is no wonder that in history, Zhao Ji of Song Huizong waited for twenty or thirty years for the Son of Taiping, and the government has always been under his control.
If it is really countless in my heart, I am afraid that the people below have already been played with in the palm of their hands...... rs!。
