Chapter 24 The Yellow Dragon Goes To Sea (2)
Before he could think about it, Zhao Dongting shook his head slowly and sighed: "The two beloved friends slept peacefully, but I almost never slept all night..."
Lu Xiufu and Su Liuyi immediately looked at each other, and the ministers next to him also showed confusion.
Lu Xiufu asked, "Why can't the emperor sleep all night?"
Chen Wenlong, Liu Fu and others were also busy listening.
Zhao Dongting said, "I heard the continuous sound of waves on the shore of the Binzhou Island. I couldn't stop thinking about when we can end this life of escape, when will we expel the Yuan thieves and restore my Song Dynasty. The tide of waves after wave was like the ancestors constantly scolding me in my ears, asking me when I can destroy the Yuan thieves, making my heart as if I were stumbled, and how could I sleep?"
When the ministers heard Zhao Dongting's words, they couldn't help but think of the miserable and displaced life of escape over the past few years. They were instantly sad. They thought that the Song Dynasty is now in danger and lacks major generals. It is really difficult to expel the Yuan thief. A few older ministers couldn't help but kneel in the hall and burst into tears, "I'm incompetent..."
Their crying ignited the emotions of everyone in the hall, and the crying sounds were endless. Even the great master Li Yuanxiu, who was standing next to Zhao Dongting, kept wiping his tears.
I was afraid that Zhao Dongting would not cry in the entire hall.
He looked at these ministers who were wailing and thought to himself that these ancient people were so cute as they wrote in Jin Yong's novels, and they were so easily incited. But I don't know if the heroes of this era were as righteous as Guo Jing in the novel. If that were true, perhaps they would be the most powerful force to deal with the Yuan army.
His mind was full of energy.
Concubine Yang Shu and Yang Yidong walked in from outside the hall at this time and saw the ministers in the room crying, with confusion on their faces.
Concubine Yang frowned and asked, "Why are you all crying here?"
A few people stopped crying and were about to answer, but they saw a slightly fat figure running out of the palace, shouting, "Empress Dowager, Emperor, auspiciousness, auspiciousness... Empress Dowager, Emperor, auspiciousness comes from the sky..."
When he ran to the hall, it was not Mr. Zhang Shijie.
Zhang Shijie was panting, but with a happy face. Looking at Yang Shufei and Zhao Dongting, he said unhappy: "Empress Dowager, Empress Dowager, dozens of people saw the yellow dragon churning in the sea by the sea."
Everyone looked incredible.
Zhang Shijie continued, "This is the auspicious sign of my Song Dynasty! As soon as the emperor took power, such a divine beast appeared to fly on the sea. Isn't it a symbolic emperor who should go out to sea like a yellow dragon, leading our Song Dynasty soldiers and civilians to drive away the Yuan thieves and restore the country?"
Not to mention Zhao Dongting, even the others were stunned when they heard this, and the crying in the hall suddenly stopped.
Is there really a dragon in the world?
Of course, Zhao Dongting did not believe that there were any dragons in this world, but he vaguely remembered that it seemed to have been recorded in history books. At that time, Zhao Feng had already died of illness, and King Guang Zhao Bing became the emperor. Some people saw the yellow dragons rolling on the sea. For this reason, the small court deliberately changed the reign of Xiangxing and promoted the island of Juzhou to Xianglong County.
Unexpectedly, after I came here, something like this really happened.
Immediately, Zhao Dongting hurriedly said, "Where is Huanglong? Let's go and see it quickly."
As he said that, he hurried out to the hall.
The ministers hurriedly trotted behind and talked a lot.
The saying of the Dragon is illusory, and everyone wants to know if this is true. Many people think in their hearts that if the Dragon is really born, then it is impossible for the Song Dynasty to have some hope of revival in the hands of the little emperor.
However, Zhao Dongting did not think that there would be a Huanglong going out to sea. He only thought that this was a trick that Zhang Shijie deliberately played to unite people's hearts. It was similar to Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's Qin Dynasty's Qin Dynasty's Chen's belly when they were uprising, and the trick "King Chen Sheng..." was written on it.
He had just run out of the Political Affairs Hall, and of course he was just pretending.
Now the people of the minor court in the Southern Song Dynasty are in a sluggish heart. Zhao Dongting has just ascended the throne. He has to admit that Zhang Shijie has taken the opportunity quite accurately. If the Huanglong story can really be spread and the military and civilians have confidence, then Zhang Shijie will be the first contribution.
Thinking of himself, Zhao Dongting suddenly felt that he was really underestimating the wisdom of the ancients. He just used the matter of waves to make the ministers cry, but he didn't expect that Zhang Shijie could even make the Huanglong go out to sea. This comparison is simply a verdict on the right and wrong.
A group of people rushed towards the seaside.
The guards on the road looked at each other, wondering what the empress dowager, the emperor and all the civil and military ministers are.
Zhang Shijie ran to the front to lead the way, and when he led Zhao Dongting and the others to the beach, he was so tired that he couldn't even straighten his waist.
There were rugged rocks in the shallows in front, and the waves rattled on the rocks. Here, many people were already gathering and watching the sea. Most of these people were ministers and the families of the guards, who were brought out from Lin'an. When they saw Zhao Dongting and Yang Shufei, they hurriedly saluted and knelt on the ground and went up the mountain to shout long live.
Zhao Dongting thought to himself that Zhang Shijie was really delicate and did a complete set of acting. He probably expected that people like him would come and watch.
Some ministers actually believed it and asked these people gathered by the sea, "Where is Huanglong? Where is Huanglong?"
They kept stretching their necks to watch the sea.
Zhao Dongting just wanted to laugh in his heart. If these people had really seen Huang Long, could they still stay here?
Sure enough, everyone present said they didn't see it.
The ministers all looked at Zhang Shijie.
Zhang Shijie said: "Someone really saw Huanglong rolling with the waves here."
As he said that, he looked at the people around him, "Do you know who witnessed Huanglong going out to sea with his own eyes?"
You said, I said, some said Zhang San, some said Li Si. Everyone said it was quite like that. It was so lively. Even Yang Shufei, Yang Yidong, Lu Xiufu and others were skeptical.
This is not because they are not smart, but because of the limitations of ancient technology, the divine and magical things were quite popular, and the believers were far more than those who did not believe them.
Zhao Dongting already knew it, but naturally he would not expose Zhang Shijie. Zhang Shijie's move was to unite people's hearts for him.
It can be imagined that as long as the Huanglong incident spreads, Zhao Dongting will have a great reputation in the future.
