Duan Yushui said apologetically: "I didn't think about it and was negligent for a while, but I really didn't know that Brother Zhang's injuries were still repeated. He had already improved that night, but all of a sudden, he took a sharp turn for the worse. ”

Goshawk said: "Why did Brother Duan say this? The eldest husband died on the battlefield, and he died well, and Brother Duan tried his best to save him, how can we have the slightest resentment? Brother Zhang's miraculous achievements will surely be passed on to future generations and will be passed down through the ages." ”

While speaking, he suddenly became suspicious, and when he explored his mind, he felt that there seemed to be a faint smell on Zhang Axe Mountain, and the goshawk was very familiar. His heart was shocked, and his expression was astonished, but in an instant, it was as calm as usual.

He knew who killed Zhang Axe Mountain, and after a little thought, he also knew that person's thoughts.

He was a little sad and angry at the beginning, but he thought in his heart: "Brother Zhang had the heart to die, although he survived, he was too seriously injured, and even if he recovered, he was afraid that he would be half of his body and lose all his martial arts." It is better to be liberated than to remain in the world and suffer. As long as that person treats Brother Zhang's wife well, I can't seek revenge on him. What's more, we have won a big victory, and we must not cause chaos and miss the good situation. ”

He was full of worries and secretly scolded himself for the uselessness of his pockets, but the more fun people have in the world, the more suffering there is. There is more freedom, there are more restraints, and the goshawk is afraid that he will be emotional, no longer indifferent, and will have endless troubles in the future, so he will force himself to forget this hatred.

Not long after, Zhao Sheng personally visited the goshawk, and the goshawk responded calmly, not revealing half of the flaws, but just joked casually: "Brother Zhang's wife and children, I hope the emperor will take care of them with more kindness, otherwise my goshawk will not agree." ”

Zhao Sheng laughed and said: "Do you need to say more about this matter? I have already ordered to go down and be promoted to the title of Earl Zhang, and his family will be rewarded with a lot every year." ”

After half a month, most of the generals have recovered, Zhao Sheng held another feast, invited the ministers to drink together, and he said at the banquet: "I have a matter that I happen to bring up here, so that everyone can know." ”

Everyone listened solemnly to him, and they all listened solemnly, Zhao Sheng pointed to Concubine Xin and said: "Concubine Xin Ai has always been favored by widows, virtuous and dignified, and her son Qiu Haojiao has made outstanding achievements in this battle, and she is in charge of her own affairs, which is also her contribution to raising and teaching." I have decided to make Concubine Xin the queen, and De'er is willing to abdicate as a concubine. ”

The ministers were immediately in an uproar, and they were all shocked, and they gradually left and said loudly: "Your Majesty, the position of the queen is a great matter, how can you make such a childish decision?

Zhao Sheng actually didn't want to mention this matter at this banquet, but in the past half a month, he had fun with Xiao Qiuyang every day, and his heart was quite flustered and frivolous. Concubine Xin sensed that something was wrong and forced Zhao Sheng to ask, but Zhao Sheng didn't dare to say anything, only said that his body was weak and he couldn't have sex, so he covered up the past, but he felt doubly guilty about Concubine Xin. He pondered the compensation method, and remembered that when he fled for his life, Empress De had promised to abdicate and make way for Xian, and he had immediately made up his mind. He doesn't care about Empress De anymore, this move can please the little cow and comfort Concubine Xin, why not?

He discussed the strategy with Mao Jingyuan, and Mao Jingyuan said: "If it is mentioned in the early dynasty, it is too solemn, and it is only afraid of causing controversy, and it will be difficult to succeed." It's better to talk about it when you are free and explore the thoughts of the ministers. ”

Zhao Sheng happily accepted, tonight's feast for the ministers, he had a few glasses of wine, he was already drunk, and he was really anxious, so he took advantage of the situation to say it, and as soon as the words came out, he was uneasy. The more and more he left the elder of Empress De, he spoke out against it, which was expected by Zhao Sheng, but he didn't know who else would stop him later.

He smiled slightly and said, "Grandpa Yue, at that time, you also heard De'er promise with your own ears, how can you regret it if you have no jokes?"

The beard that was getting more and more out of breath was straight, and he couldn't take care of anything, and shouted: "At that time, the soldiers were in chaos, and everyone was in a hurry" was about to tell the ugly story of Zhao Sheng's escape, when he suddenly heard Empress De shouting: "Grandpa, you can't argue with the emperor, my talent is not enough to convince the public, stealing this position, I really don't have to do anything, and I will cause the emperor to add trouble, too much merit." Sister Xin'er treats me very well, we have always been harmonious, and having her take care of the emperor is a matter that is beneficial to the world, so I can rest assured, how dare I not abdicate and make way for Xian?"

Concubine Xin was overjoyed, hurriedly held Empress De's little hand, and said softly: "Good sister, you are really kind-hearted, I will never treat you badly in the future." ”

Most of the ministers intended to dissuade them, but Empress De herself had already agreed, and no matter how many words she spoke, it would be difficult to say it in an instant.

The goshawk looked at Zhou Hanhai and saw that his expression was mixed, he bowed his head and was silent, most of them were in a complicated mood. went to look at Xiao Qiuyang again, and saw that she pouted and frowned, obviously quite dissatisfied.

Kong Wu said happily: "The emperor's wife and concubine are harmonious, and they are like sisters, which is really a blessing in the world, since everyone has no objection, then this matter is decided." ”

Zhao Sheng saw that the empty Wufu was so refreshing, and Empress De had no quarrel with the world, and his heart was like being amnestied, and he said with a smile: "I have a wife like this, and I am very blessed, but I can't do without the kindness of my father, and Grandpa Yue teaches well." ”

The more and more he left and the more he was in a hurry, he was dumbfounded, he couldn't imagine that he had worked hard for ten years, and he would be so wasted, he couldn't wait to cry on the spot, and he wanted to settle accounts with Zhao Sheng. It's just that after this great victory, the people of Yunnan sang praises to the little emperor, revered them all, and the ministers all bowed to them, and even the empty Wuyun had nodded, and the two of them didn't dare to attack, but their faces were gloomy and sullen.

Kong Wu was familiar with the etiquette of the previous dynasty, so he clearly listed all the rules and matters, Zhao Sheng nodded again and again, happily agreed, and toasted everyone a few glasses of wine, and ended the banquet.

Empress De out of the main hall, but not busy back to the palace, her mind was chaotic, so she played in the imperial garden, tonight she and Zhou Hanhai did not have an agreement, and did not want to be bothered, so she set aside the guards, alone, quietly lovesick, and her heart was obsessed.

She was a naïve and enthusiastic lady, before she met Zhao Sheng, she had a love affair with men and women, but a blank piece of paper, after getting married, she regarded Zhao Sheng as the only partner in this life, and then was betrayed by Zhao Sheng, impulsively, and Zhou Hanhai became acquainted, after many years, her love for Zhao Sheng has long been cold, and she only has her beloved son and lover in her heart, and she does not put the queen's position in her eyes. At this time, it is no longer the last, but it is like getting out of the cage and gaining freedom.

But I heard someone behind me say, "Concubine De, you finally figured it out." ”

De'er was taken aback, and immediately turned around, seeing Kong Wuyun standing behind him, his expression still kind. De'er laughed, thought back on the past, remembered it vividly, and said: "Many years ago, when we were in the Duan Clan's fort, the Air Force Division asked me to give way to Sister Xin, and now that I have done what you want, you are naturally very happy?"

Kong Wu Dun stroked his beard and smiled, and said: "The whirlpool in the middle of the court is not something you can cross, I want you to be patient everywhere, just to save your life and Hanhai's life."

When Empress De heard this, her soul suddenly flew away, her body shook, and she fell to the ground softly. Kong Wu said: "I have no ill will towards you two, otherwise I would not have connived at you so far, but you must remember one thing, this matter is related to my life and Hanhai's life." ”

Empress De gradually came back to her senses, and thought to herself: "With his means, I am far from being his opponent, but I am afraid that I will not do any harm and listen to what he has to say." Seeing that there was no one around, he kowtowed to Kongwu and said: "The grace of the reinvention of the empty lord cannot be repaid, and please give good words and guidance." ”

Kong Wuyun said: "You were always paying attention to Zhao Sheng, if one day he attacked me and detained me, you immediately escaped from Zhao Sheng's side with Hanhai and his son, went to the southwest, and found Heidala to borrow troops." ”

Empress De was frightened, her mind was in turmoil, and she asked, "Do you know that Zhao Sheng is going to be unfavorable to you?

Kong Wuxuan said: "I put the overall situation first, and I don't want to be embarrassed by Zhao Sheng, but just in case, I have to let you know first, but you can't tell anyone about it, otherwise I will reveal your personal relationship with Hanhai." ”

Empress De shudde: "I will never dare to disobey the words of Lord Kong. ”

Kong Wu looked up to the sky and sighed, flicked his sleeve robe, and strode away. Empress De reluctantly stood up, hid her face and took a deep breath, and left here in a hurry and went back to the palace.

On the next five days, a grand ceremony was held in the city, and another queen was set up, and the lights were displayed everywhere, and the joy was jubilant for several days before it was settled. Empress Xin and Qiu Haojiao were full of red light, full of joy, and the ministers all sent big gifts to show congratulations, and their expressions were several times more respectful than before.

When this matter subsided, the next morning, Kong Wuxuan said: "Now that everyone has finished cultivating, and the reinforcements from all cities have also arrived, they are about to crusade against the Tatars and gradually march into the Central Plains. Shunyuan Mansion is a big city of Yunnan and Guizhou, countless real estate, fertile and rich, it is a place where soldiers must fight, we should send generals to expedition, and then defeat the battle of Tartars, with Shunyuan Mansion as the capital, so that it is as stable as Mount Tai. ”

When Zhao Sheng heard this, he was exactly what he wanted, and asked, "Father, who do you say is the general, and you will win?"

Kong Wuyun said: "Led by General Goshawk and General Zhou Hanhai, each army will lead 150,000 troops, and the troops will be divided into two routes, north and south, march together, attack cities and conquer places along the way, and recruit manpower. Wechen will also accompany him. ”

Zhao Sheng thought to himself: "If he takes all the horses and horses, with his prestige, supports troops outside to stand on his own, and turns against me, what should he do?" and immediately said: "Father, I want to drive the expedition in person, experience this great victory, and also drum up the morale of everyone." ”

Kong Wuyun muttered: "Your Majesty, this trip is full of dangers, Your Majesty is expected by everyone, how can you rush into danger?"

Zhao Sheng has made up his mind, and he is stubborn, so he can only agree to it. After three days of preparation, everything was complete, and Zhao Sheng ordered a confidant civilian official to stay behind and follow the Goshawk Northern Army. Kong Wu escaped all the way with Zhou Hanhai.

This time the conquest has exhausted the elite soldiers of the Song army, sparing no effort, moving forward, encountering battle conditions on the way, several times are extremely dangerous. But Xue Bing is cold and full of scheming, and he can always anticipate the enemy's opportunity first and turn danger into a disaster, and Goshawk, Duan Yushui, Mo Wei, Li Ruolan and others are all top masters, and they have repeatedly won by surprise. After three months, he came to a thirty-mile place outside the city of Shunyuan Mansion. Kong Wudun, Zhou Hanhai and others took the first step, and the two sides converged, Zhao Sheng saw that the loss was not large, and he was happy in his heart, so he ordered the siege of the city.

The Shun Yuan Mansion was strictly defended by the army of the prince of the Yuan Dynasty, although there were 200,000 soldiers and horses in the city, but a few months ago, in the battle in Kunming, the elite was lost, and the remaining soldiers were mostly Semu people and Han people, compared with the elite soldiers of Mengyuan and Yuan, it was really far away. And the Yuan Dynasty was busy with other wars, and couldn't take care of it for a while, so attacking and defending for a month, Kublai Khan sent a vanguard to dare to die, entered the siege, and rescued Gan Mala from the city, and Shun Yuan Mansion fell into the hands of the Song army.

When the news came out, the world was shaken, and the Han people everywhere were oppressed by others. Suddenly, the name of Zhao Sheng, the king of the Song Dynasty, spread to the ends of the earth, and countless heroes came to take refuge in him, regarding him as the savior of the Son of Heaven.
