Chapter 1 Mingdao Palace
The autumn wind is rustling, the setting sun is warm, and in the evening, the Mingdao Palace in Weizhen County, Bozhou, Huainan East Road, Great Song Dynasty (later Luyi) is intertwined with light and shadow, and the air is refreshing and warm.
Not only that, at this moment, in this huge building complex with temples and palace attributes, fully armed soldiers and noble men in purple dresses could be seen everywhere. I saw countless civil and military ministers of the Song Dynasty who were resident here. Among them, the hill in the back hall, which is the highest, is even more well-prepared and orderly. From a distance, you can see several three dragons waving in the wind.
Anyone with a little common sense knows that this thing is called Jinwu Banner, which is used exclusively for the emperor's great chariot. The dragon Banner here means that the Zhao Song official family is also here.
This situation cannot be said to be rare. After all, the officials of the Song Dynasty have always believed in Taoism. The official in the Song Dynasty was even more famous than the Emperor of Taoism. The Mingdao Palace where the Taoist ancestors are located is also built by Zhenzong. It seems ordinary that the official in Song Dynasty came here to serve sacrifices.
However, unlike the grand occasion when Emperor Zhenzong came here to worship Taoist ancestors, at this moment, the atmosphere in this royal garden was a bit solemn and serious... The number of soldiers of the fully armed generals was too large, and the civil officials of the Song Dynasty who had always liked to dance and write were not at all happy. Instead, they could not hide their worries after meeting each other in groups of three or three, and they could not hide their worries.
Of course it is hard to hide!
Moreover, since Jingkang, the Jin soldiers invaded the south and the two saints hunted north, and rebelled everywhere. The Song Dynasty was actually on the verge of life and death, and the worry of the destruction of the country was not a false statement.
What's even worse is that at this time of crisis, the Zhao Guan family, who had just ascended the throne for more than two months in the Song Dynasty, also suffered an unprovoked disaster. Therefore, a few days ago, when the Zhao Guan family's ceremonial guard passed here to Huaidian to prepare for the anti-Jin period, they could not help but visit Li Er, the Taoist ancestor of the Mingdao Palace. However, after the visit, the young Zhao Guan family actually stumbled into the Jiulong Well near the Mingdao Palace in front of hundreds of civil and military officials, and then fell into a coma for a while!
Of course, I just fainted. The Zhao Guan family woke up half a day later, and the two ministers also visited them.
But the problem is that Zhao Guanjia, who was young and strong, had always been able to ride a horse for half a day, woke up and acted as usual, but did not continue to move south as planned. Recently, he only showed his face publicly with the provincial eunuchs, Dawei Ban Kanglu, and then did not take action again.
You should know that two months ago, after the officials ascended the throne in Nanjing (Shangqiu), there was a battle of dragons and tigers above the court, and even a counselor, two magistrates and a prime minister were killed. Then, the national policy of traveling south to Huaidian to transfer Yangzhou. Moreover, during this trip to the south, the empress dowager had already gone to Yangzhou first, and there were many royal families. Several financially capable officials also went to Huaiyang and Jiangnan to raise money and grain. All the imperial magistrates and commanders went to the surrounding areas to quell the rebellions in order to ensure the road of peace. Even the squads of the escorts of the escorts went to the front to open the road... But the most important and fundamental officials and civil and military officials of the court had just set off for only a hundred miles from Nanjing (Shangqiu), and stopped in Bozhou. What was going on?
So, people were in panic for a while when they walked here.
There are rumors that although the official family did not hurt his body that day, it damaged his brain. Even Concubine Pan and Kang Aiban could not remember it. They might even become Emperor Hui of Song. Therefore, the ministers of the East and West Palaces and Kang Aiban from the Escort Province did not dare to leave. There are rumors that the official family was also a believer after all, so after this incident, he actually suspected that the Taoist ancestor was a special warning and advised him not to go south. Therefore, he changed his mind for a moment, and instead wanted to stay in the Central Plains to fight against the Jin Dynasty, so he was lingering in a difficult situation!
Not only that, for example, Kang Lu took the opportunity to imprison the official family, and made a strategy of changing the official family; or Daozu entrusted a dream to guide the gods to come down to earth to help... All kinds of absurd statements became increasingly bizarre as Xing Zai stopped in the Mingdao Palace in Bozhou.
I can only say that after Jingkang, the orthodox royal family of the Song Dynasty was the orthodox, otherwise there might be something wrong with it.
"Hello everyone!"
Just when people were panicking everywhere, the highest terrain was the center of the vortex. Seeing that the official family was bending their bows and erecting targets under the dragon flag before sunset, they stopped, and the eunuch waiting beside the provincial apprentice, who was waiting for the side, quickly stepped forward to flatter and inquire. "Do you have to have dinner with the troop today?"
"Is there anything wrong?"
The so-called official family was wearing a red round-necked arrow shirt, about 20 years old, but he was tall and handsome, as if he was the direct descendant of the Zhao family. At this time, he just smiled slightly when he heard this, and seemed to be indifferent. "Is there something wrong with the high-ranking official?"
"What can we do?" Kang Daguan, who is about 30 years old, is currently in the only provincial apprentice. He has always mastered the confidential texts of the ban, which is equivalent to an important existence like a eunuch who has written a pen in later generations. He couldn't help but sigh when he heard this. "It's just that Mrs. Pan came to our family to ask, saying that he hadn't seen the official family for many days. I missed him very much. Our family thought..."
When Zhao Guanjia heard this, he squeezed the hard bow in his hand and smiled awkwardly. He did not answer, but turned his head away instead.
"And, didn't you say you wanted to eat ice cream after you were injured?" Kang Lu saw this and quickly walked around the other party and continued to close her sleeves and said. "Miss Pan specializes in cooking today and has made it for everyone. You might as well go there and meet the royal heir by the way!"
"Yeah?"
The young official was slightly stunned and hesitated for a moment, but soon he came to his senses and sighed softly. "Forget it. Then I'll just send ice cream. I'll use it with the same class as today..."
"Official family!"
Kang Lu was anxious for a moment and even expressed intimacy. He had always been the only one available to Xingzaizhong. "That was done by Pan himself. How can it be used by the ranks? What kind of style is this? Even if you are the official, you can no longer have a meal with the ranks. If the ranks are spread, it will be dissatisfied with the ministers of the foreign court. They say that the official despises scholars and values martial artists."
"Since Jingkang, is there any morality in the Song Dynasty?" The young official not only did not change his mind when he heard this, but instead sneered in public. "But there is a semi-divided tradition, why is it to this point today? As for scholars and dissatisfaction, they are not satisfied with the iron cavalry of the Jin people, but how are they dissatisfied with me?"
After saying that, the Zhao Guan family ignored the other party and walked out of the back hall. Kang Lu was about to follow, but unexpectedly, several sword squads who were originally standing next to him stood up and followed, directly blocking Kang Daguan's way.
Kang Lu was in a panic and quickly signaled to a light armored officer next to the hall gate. Seeing this, the tall and majestic young officer lowered his head slightly while getting up to follow the imperial Song official family, which is their nominal lord.
Let’s talk about those sword-wielding banzhi, who seemed to be able to hold on to Kang Lu, but he obviously respected him a lot. Not only did he not stop him, he directly made way. Zhao Jiu, the official of the Song Dynasty who was walking in front and glimpsed this scene from the corner of his eyes, had his face unchanged at all when he saw this, but continued to look calmly outward.
However, when he left the hall, Zhao Jiu was not in a hurry to find someone to have dinner together. Instead, he stood on the slope where the back hall was located and looked around for a long time. He asked Kang Lu to deal with the confidential words. Then he suddenly turned around and gave an order to the young officer following him:
"I'm sorry to let Yang Sheren walk around, take off Concubine Pan's ice cream for me, and then tell me how hard it is."
The so-called Yang Sheren was caught off guard and could only respond in public and turn around and leave. Zhao Jiu and Zhao Guanjia also left to the military camp where Ma Ming was coming from the lower part of the small slope.
That's right!
It was Zhao Jiu, not Zhao Jiu. The emperor and Song official family were really taken over as rumors! Official Kang and the young officer, Yang Yizhong, the guardian of the Gumen, have been. The real power figure in the ban, who is the "care" of this "big injury has just recovered" official family is not overwhelming, but is really loyal and commendable!
If Zhao Gou's soul was still on some object, he would probably be moved and cry.
Of course, the only problem is that the monster who took over the Zhao Song official family was not a raccoon, but a mortal who he thought was innocent, a mortal who nine hundred years later!
I think this guy just went home to get a household registration after graduating from college, and then went to the Taoist temple for a while. He just helped an old Taoist priest to save the dog in the Jiulongjing made of cement, but when he came to his senses, he became Zhao Song's official family... Who can I argue with?
Tell me to the Emperor?
Will the Taishang Laojun mock him: What does the matter in the Lier Temple have to do with me, Taishang Laojun?
In fact, to be fair, a time traveler who travels through time becomes the emperor, or who has just ascended the throne at the age of 21, is worthy of the time traveler if he really has the mastermind behind the scenes... He has been in the Taiping Emperor for 60 years, spent 20 years saving money, built a steam engine, and then 20 years of colonizing the world. During this period, he married a lot of harems, gave birth to dozens of children, raised hundreds of cats and dogs, and designed a zoo. Isn't it good?
Isn't it smell good?
Of course, it smells fragrant, and Concubine Pan is also fragrant, but the problem is that the emperor is called Zhao Gou, ranked ninth, and later generations have always called him Zhao Laojiu. However, this year's year of Jianyan was called Jianyan, but the Yuan Dynasty was changed after Zhao Laojiu ascended the throne two months ago. It was called Jingkang for the second year half a year.
In other words, the extremely humiliated Jingkang shame had ended at this time, the Northern Song Dynasty had completely destroyed its country, Hebei and Hedong were completely destroyed, and the Southern Song Dynasty had been established in theory, but in fact it had not yet established a foothold... The entire Song Dynasty court was actually following Zhao Laojiu to flee south, trying to find a foothold in Yangzhou.
In response to this, our time traveler, Mr. Zhao Jiu, saw thousands of soldiers and the Huaixi Plain without electrification facilities with his own eyes, and used his fairly casual Central Plains accent to verify it again and again, and confirmed that he had traveled through time and that he had traveled to Zhao Gou for sure, he had not felt very good these days.
No, Zhao Gou and Zhao Laojiu's reputation are too bad, and not to mention it, the key is that the time is worse! In Zhao Jiu's opinion, is it not good to go to Jingkang for two years before time traveling, and build a second place in Xuanwu Sect? Or in the next two years, go to Lin'an and stabilize directly. Are you uncomfortable?
Do you have to be at this critical moment on the way to escape?
Jin Wushu, who led a army of 100,000 to search mountains and seas, is not a fictional character!
Of course, Zhao Jiu is a history-blind ignorant. He would definitely not have time to build Xuanwu Sect in the past two years, so he would not mention it. If he traveled over again in the next two years, his body would be a eunuch, and that would be worse than death.
In short, since I passed by, the Zhao Guan family, Zhao Gou, Zhao Jiu, or Zhao Jiu, have really not been in a good mood for a day.
At the beginning, he was extremely disappointed and irritable... Can air conditioning, computers, mobile phones, and Haidilao be better than an escaped emperor? Or is it such an unbearable emperor in history? In fact, although this body is very healthy and young, he, a later generation with normal values, still feels a little disgusted and discomfort.
And as an ordinary person, don’t you miss home?
So, the next night after traveling, the Zhao Guan family tried to jump over the Jiulongjing in the Taozu Temple again to seek the Taozu's kindness, but it was just a failure.
After confirming that I can't go back, I will naturally feel sorry for myself!
How mature can a young man who was also twenty-one years old before traveling through time. He had just graduated from college and was not even enrolled in the job? So he started crying secretly in the middle of the night, began to say something that he wanted to eat ice cream, and started to lose his temper and curse people... It was as aggrieved as the Transformation.
And probably because of these persistent abnormalities, this time traveler naturally aroused the vigilance of Kang Lu and Yang Yizhong.
As for the fact that after a few days, after finally accepting his fate and preparing to live a different identity, the Zhao official family of Song Dynasty, who had just left the well, had to face a very embarrassing and tense situation:
Not to mention the officials of the Song Dynasty who were wearing hard wings, round necklines, purple robes, red robes, and green robes, the main figures around him were one of the bans, who was approximately equivalent to the eunuchs in later generations; the so-called waiter was actually Yang Yizhong, the chief of the bodyguard in the ban; the two priests, Huang Qianshan, the official prime minister of the Eastern Palace, the official secretary of the Privy Council; Wang Boyan, the chief minister of the Privy Council of the Western Palace; and Wang Yuan, the commander-in-chief of the Imperial Camp, who was equivalent to the commander-in-chief of the Imperial Guard... He didn't know any of them! He had never heard of that!
However, considering that this is Zhao Gou's confidant, and that these people have helped Zhao Gou to initiate and lead the escape south before, it may be said that it is the surrender faction who has persecuted the anti-Jin Zhongliang and is determined to escape!
Not only that, these people are obviously a little suspicious because of his time traveler's incompetence in the early stage. Whether it is concerned or vigilant, under Kang Lu's leadership these days, there have always been people who have been watching him, the Zhao Guan family. Besides the comforting appearance on the second day, Zhao Jiu has never fully contacted memorials and court officials.
Obviously, he was consciously isolated.
In addition, Zhao Laojiu also left Zhao Jiu with a concubine Pan and a baby who had just been in full moon... Well... This matter was a bit embarrassing, but it was just embarrassing, and it couldn't be said that anyone took advantage of whom, because Zhao Laojiu was probably not in this world, and the new one was obviously pure soul-walking, without any burden!
In fact, after learning that his wife and two concubines in this body were captured by the Jin people, Zhao Jiu did not empathize with him except for mocking Zhao Gou as a man (in fact, they were all dead at this time, but Zhao Gou only realized it after more than ten years in history, and on the other hand, he was really not a man), because he didn't remember anything and had no memory fusion.
In other words, in Zhao Jiu's opinion, he threw the concubine Pan and the baby to the south for raising him. If Zhao Gou's captured family had the opportunity to take him back, he would throw him to the south for raising him, which would be worthy of his conscience... It can be considered as a favor given by Zhao Gou, which is a human favor with both civil and military bodies.
Besides, if you have time to think about these things, it is better to seize the time to establish a good relationship with the grassroots soldiers and buy people's hearts. In this way, someone can help block the knife when necessary; secondly, it can resolve Kang Lu and Yang Yizhong's soft control; thirdly, it can also use this to obtain and seek some necessary information...
As for maintaining the mystery of the official identity to maintain authority, it is not wrong, but as Zhao Jiu said before when he was sarcastic about Kang Lu, can the Zhao Song official family be more embarrassing since Jingkang?
And at the end, there was another huge thing in front of the Zhao Guan family who had just left the well and traveled to Zhao Gou. Don’t you have to resist the Jin Dynasty?!
