With the majesty of Kuimen, looking from a high place, you can see the spectacular scene of the rolling Yangtze River splitting the mountains and flowing eastward.
It is precisely "all the water will flow down thousands of rivers, and Qutang will fight for one". This situation and scene make people's horizons widen and their hearts suddenly filled with pride.
Su Liuyi looked deeply at Jia Sidao, and could feel from the wrinkles in the corners of Jia Sidao's eyes that Ping Zhanggong was extremely loyal to the Song Dynasty.
The world scolded his female minister, but he knew that this so-called female minister always wanted to save the country.
"The last general will not dare to hide this from Duke Zhang!"
Su Liuyi decided in an instant to throw away the tact and forbearance he had learned in Lu Jiajun, and he wanted to tell the truth.
"Although there are three hundred warriors who will climb the cliff at the end, only one out of ten will successfully enter the barrier. This is the real lack of merit."
With difficulty, Su Liuyi took out a booklet from his armor, took a good look at it, handed it to Jia Sidao, and continued: "As for those who always attack Qutang Pass from the front, only the soldiers and horses led by Zhu Susun, the pacification envoy of Jingnan,
.As for the generals, they never tried their best and instead took credit after the war."
"really."
Jia Sidao took the brochure and took a look at it, only to see that there were personal names on it, and the highest official position was only a general.
He already knew that the merit list reported to the court was fake, after all, those people didn't even cover it up.
"Pingzhang Gong also knows?"
Su Liuyi stepped back with one leg and was about to kneel down, but Jia Sidao held him back.
"Ren Zhong, you don't have to be like this. You are a loyal minister and good general who sacrificed his life to protect the country. The truth is very clear. I will not treat you badly...nor will I treat the soldiers under your command badly. They will all be rewarded and promoted.
"Thank you so much, Mr. Ping Zhang!" Su Liuyi was overjoyed.
But he thought about it and asked again: "But the battle report has been submitted to the court, can it still be changed?"
Jia Sidao patted him on the shoulder and said: "Although the battle report cannot be changed, it is enough to know who gets the credit."
"But... But Xie Yijin, the military officer of Changde Cao, delayed in issuing winter clothes to the soldiers and only recited poems and painted paintings all day long. Yang Quan, the commander of the Ningjiang army, was afraid to move forward and delayed the military flight. It was these people who pretended to be the soldiers.
If his name is not corrected, the soldiers will be unhappy."
"I understand, but it's not that simple."
"Pingzhang Gong, I am willing to do my best for the Song Dynasty!" Su Liuyi said: "I am only afraid that if I die in battle, my credit will be falsely claimed, and I am even more afraid that fighting for the country will turn into a sin."
In one sentence, it refers to today, and it also refers to the fact that his grandfather did not die at the hands of the Jin army when he was fighting against the Jin Dynasty, but died at the sword of the Song Dynasty court.
Others may not be qualified to say this, but Su Liuyi is.
"If it hadn't been for Duke Pingzhang coming today, those soldiers who risked their lives to serve the country would have gotten nothing. And my grandfather, who only wanted to fight against the gold..."
Su Liuyi stopped talking midway through his words.
Jia Sidao also fell silent, thinking that this time when he entered Sichuan, he saw all kinds of officials along the way. The one he admired most was Su Liuyi, but he couldn't even fulfill a simple request?
The two of them were speechless, only the river wind blew through the Fengxiang Gorge, causing a low whimper.
"Ren Zhong, I'm more anxious than you are."
Jia Sidao raised his hand and pointed at his boats covering the entire river.
"I know how many incompetents and greedy people there are in such a large army. I am more eager than you to cut off these carrion and straighten the morale of the army. But haste makes waste in everything, and the imperial court is stationed in the south of the Yangtze River.
For more than 130 years, officials, gentry, and various forces were intertwined and conflicted with each other. It is said that Hubei soldiers and horses ruled Xie Yiming. His official position was not great, but his father's name was Xie Caibo. He was a Jinshi in the second year of Jiatai.
At the end of the mission, he died and was presented to the Duke of Wei. Xie Caibo had a second younger brother, who was named Qu Bo. He was posthumously named King of Wei a few years ago."
Su Liuyi lowered his head.
"I'm not afraid of the Xie family. It's not like my Jia family didn't fight against the Xie family back then." Jia Sidao smiled, his eyes a little sad.
The overt and covert fight that year finally ended with the death of his sister, and he was unwilling to do so.
"But, the army is out on an expedition
, there is no need to offend the Xie family. Now that Xie Yichang is appointed as the official of Dali Temple, and Xie Yixiu knows Shaoxing Prefecture, if he is dissatisfied, it will inevitably affect the overall situation. There is also Yang Quan, the commander of the Ningjiang Army. Didn't Yang Yingkui tell you that Yang Quan is his nephew from the same clan?
?』
「
"
The Yangtze River is still the same for thousands of miles, and on the majestic mountain pass, Jia Sidao once again reached out and patted Su Liuyi on the shoulder.
"I have been wild and unruly all my life. I have dared to use public land to move the gentry, and I have also planned to move the generals. But I know that if I am used to doing big things, I will inevitably be restrained. I will endure for the sake of the country until the day when the domestic thieves and foreign invaders are defeated.
Then I know that it is worth it to keep the country safe."
~~Yanjing.
The Daning Palace left by the Jin Kingdom is no longer what it used to be. Although Kublai Khan stayed here, he actually lived in a gorgeous sweat tent in the palace.
After more than half a year of recuperation, the injuries suffered by Kublai Khan in Helan Mountain were finally almost healed. Although some minor ailments remained, they had to be taken care of slowly.
Everything is slowly getting better.
On the 30th of the twelfth lunar month, Kublai woke up early and got dressed under the service of his maid.
His beard and hair have grown back, looking majestic and inviolable.
Last night he slept in Chabi's tent. At this moment Chabi got up, but he stopped him with his own hands.
Chabi has been looking a lot haggard recently.
Her eldest son died a long time ago, and now Zhenjin is also dead, and Mang Ge La has fallen ill because of Ye Rihan's incident. Naturally, she is in a very depressed mood.
"You should be happy that your son is back today." Kublai Khan smiled.
"The Great Khan is saying that Namuhan is back?"
"Yes." Kublai Khan gently stroked Chabi's back and said, "I have appeased the herdsmen in Mobei and returned with soldiers and horses. Can you feel at ease? You no longer have to worry about the Han people attacking Yan all day long.
Beijing."
"Of course the Great Khan has the final say." Chabi was indeed much happier. "Then after the Great Khan has hosted a banquet for the warriors, let Na Muhan come to see him.
I."
According to custom, when the Khan hosted a banquet, Ketun should accompany the Khan. But Chabi had been feeling unwell recently and had been bedridden for many years, so he stayed in the tent to rest.
Kublai Khan had a good relationship with her and comforted her a few words before going about his state affairs.
After he left, not long after, Kuokuozhen took his three sons into Chabi's tent.
Kuokuozhen gave birth to three sons to Zhenjin in three years. The eldest son is now five years old, the second son is four years old, and the youngest son is three years old.
Strangely enough, among Zhenjin's three sons, Kuokuozhen's favorite was the youngest son Temur, Kublai Khan's favorite was the second son Daqimabala, and Chabi raised Zhenjin with his own hands.
The eldest son is Gan Mala.
At this time, Ganmala was the closest to Chabi. As soon as he entered the tent, he called his grandmother and ran forward, holding Chabi's arm and lying down.
"Grandma, please...get well soon, Ma, it will be spring soon. Take me back to Kaiping for...hunting."
Ganmalaya has some stuttering problems, but it's not too serious.
He stuttered a bit when he was young, which made him even more cute.
As soon as Chabi saw his grandson, he smiled, stroked his little head and said, "It's still cold, why are you hunting? You should study more."
Although she is a Mongolian woman, she knows one thing very well, that is, the Han scholars like the eldest son inheritance system, and among the princes and grandsons, the one they have the highest hopes for is the eldest grandson of the emperor.
Of course, this does not mean that she will now help Ganmala fight for the throne. She just feels pity for this little grandson who has lost his father, and hopes that he can have more supporters to love and protect him.
This preference does not have much impact in normal times.
But there is something right in front of us... If Li Xia goes north to Yanjing and Kublai Khan retreats to the north of Yanshan, then the status of the Han officials will plummet, and there will no longer be an eldest son inheritance system in the Yuan Dynasty.
, in the future, the position of Khan is likely to fall into the hands of Namuhan, who has strong soldiers and horses.
If that's the case, Chabi is worried that one day Namuhan will kill the three sons Zhenjin left behind.
She believed that the Han inheritance method was more stable and gentle, and would ensure that her descendants would not
Wherever there is dispute, it will be passed down from generation to generation peacefully.
Therefore, she hoped that Kublai Khan could defeat Li Xia and defend the Central Plains. She was very opposed to the proposal of some Mongolian kings and generals to return to the grasslands.
Kuo Kuo really had the same thought.
Now the positions of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are still exactly the same. "How did you go about asking about the things I asked you to inquire about?"
Kuokuozhen nodded respectfully and said, "Two days ago, Wang Xun's wife came to see me and said there was hope for peace."
"Negotiation? Can Li Xia agree?"
"Song's army has already entered Li Xia's rear. Li Xia is in a hurry to retreat, so he asked Hao Jing to come back to test us. But what Han officials are worried about is that the Great Khan will still kill the Zhang family."
Chabi coughed twice and said: "I have already asked the Great Khan. He is not going to kill the Zhang family immediately. Instead, he is asking the warriors to escort Zhang Rou to recapture Baozhou. If Baozhou cannot be recaptured, then he will
They will kill the entire Zhang family.
"Wang Xun means...can you please persuade the Great Khan again?"
"Persuasion can be persuasive." Chabi thought for a long time, stroked his grandson's head, and murmured: "It's just the minds of these Han people...can you still trust them?"
