Song Beiyun

However, this local emperor is not the same as those in other regions. Their family is almost unconditionally loyal to the Song Dynasty. Hang it on the city gate to show the public.

You must know that it was nearly 30 years ago, when the Song Dynasty was about to stink, and when the Jin and Liao Dynasty were in full swing.

Therefore, in the next stage, Song Beiyun's development focus will gradually advance to the Sichuan Basin, and then gradually eat up Tubo and pass through slightly snowy areas.

For Song Beiyun, it doesn't matter if there is more territory, but if there is less than one piece, he feels that his trip has been wasted.

"By the way, speaking of which, the queen has a biological sister who hasn't married yet on the 24th. How about I get her to marry you, and it will be easier for you when you manage Sichuan."

Song Beiyun was taken aback, and looked at Zhao Xing in astonishment: "No way, big brother... In what age do you have to rely on marriage to do things?"

"Then what if you don't do this? I'm not talking about you. Standing in my position, you don't have to give up any of your random women, one is Jin Ling'er, one is Brother Yelu, and one is the little princess from Sichuan. You will be complete for a lifetime."

Zhao Xing's words are hard to hear, but he is an emperor after all, so there is nothing wrong with saying this. After all, no matter how new he is, he has never had a good impression of marriage, even if the current empress has a good relationship with him. After all, for the royal family, Marriage is the bond that maintains the relationship, there are not too many messy feelings and the like.

Back then, Song Beiyun didn't have this kind of worry, but now Song Beiyun is different. He has also reached the position where he has to consider political effects. Every marriage may bring him a huge amount of political wealth.

"No." Song Beiyun shook his head and said, "My body can't bear it."

Zhao Xing shook his head disdainfully: "I didn't propose this marriage, it was the queen who proposed it. Her meaning is probably equivalent to her father's. Everyone has this idea, and you actually refuse? Can you still suffer? ? Let me tell you, I have seen that young girl of the queen once, she is very beautiful."

"Oh! If you say no, then don't." Song Beiyun spat: "In the future, it is best to have as few marriages as possible, otherwise the old nobles will get down and the new nobles will rise again."

Just as they were talking, Xiang Ding finished his speech and was waiting for Zhao Xing to go up to the finale. Zhao Xing tidied up his clothes and walked slowly to the front of the stage.

It has to be said that Mr. Zhao's reputation is really no one else. When Song Beiyun went up, the response was mediocre, when Yan Shu went up, there was no disturbance, and when Ding Xiang went up, everyone didn't even dare to shout.

Only the moment Zhao Xing took the stage, the people outside were roaring like a tsunami, deafening, any concert with 5 people was weak, the state of the people was almost crazy, many people waved their hands and shouted long live in the crowd at the top of their lungs.

"This posture." Song Beiyun smiled and shook his head and said to Ding Xiang next to him, "If anyone jumps out and says he wants to rebel, he will be reported before dawn at the meeting the night before."

"Hahahaha..." Ding Xiang laughed heartily: "Our emperor, perhaps, is also unique in all ages."

"Yes." Song Beiyun nodded and said, "Maybe we will never find such an emperor again."

Song Beiyun couldn't understand Zhao Xing's brain circuit. He never cared about the majesty of the royal family. He just did what he thought was right, and then persisted in doing it. He didn't have any temper. From the beginning, he did not put himself above the legal authority.

This is a miraculous emperor. Although his personal virtues are in a mess, he is proficient in eating, drinking, whoring and gambling, let alone a gentleman, but he is loved and supported by others.

"Don't talk about that, just ask you what's going on with you this time?" Yan Shu suddenly raised his head and asked, "Make this decision suddenly, and then ask them to talk to Yan Shu in detail? You know what I've been through these days ?”

You don't need to know, you can guess it. Once you hear that this grain with an output of several thousand or even tens of thousands of catties per mu will be given away for free in the future, then the envoys from various countries will go crazy?It is estimated that when Yan Shu has a poop, someone will stick his head out of the toilet and ask, "Oh, Yan Xiang, what a coincidence".

"It'll be fine once you've been busy."

"What a fart!" Yan Shu said anxiously, "I don't dare to go to the court, I dare not go to the Yamen, and I dare not go out to eat. They would like to put up a tent and live in front of my house. As long as I go out, I will A bunch of people came around."

"Oh, what's wrong with people doing things for their own country?" Song Beiyun laughed loudly: "You, you can't be lazy in politics."

"Okay, then I'll tell them that Song Beiyun is also a real prime minister, let them find you."

"Hey! No way." Song Beiyun quickly waved his hands: "I'm on vacation."

In fact, I can’t blame those envoys for this incident. Seeds are extremely precious means of production, not to mention rations, they can start wars for spices. It is conceivable that these things represent a symbol for people in this era. What.

Don't they know they're annoying?They know it better than anyone else, but this matter involves hundreds of thousands or even millions of mouths in their country. Sometimes some small countries really have no choice.It's hard for them, they have to rely on the face of a big country to eat.

Which of those envoys is not a scholar?Which one is not a person with a lofty heart?If it wasn't really impossible, who would want to have the cheek to be someone's grandson.

"But you're so grand this time, you're giving me a big face." Yan Shu sarcastically said with a cold face: "Then you can give away precious things as you please?"

"Ten years, not too long, ten years." Song Beiyun made a sign of the cross: "Ten years later, you must say from the bottom of your heart, 'Song Beiyun is really awesome'."

Yan Shu didn't understand why, so he looked at Ding Xiang, Ding Xiang caressed his long beard and smiled leisurely: "Those who are near are more welcome than those who are far away. Under the same language and the same species, the great cause of reunification is just around the corner."

"I don't believe it." Yan Shu pursed his lips and shook his head, "It's not that easy."

"Gamble." Song Beiyun took out a copper plate: "Come."

Yan Shu took out a ten-peme bill: "Come on, big one."

"You want to win this thing?" Song Beiyun also fumbled for a while, and took out the only five bills on his body: "Follow, I owe the remaining five bills."

"Has the dignified Song Beiyun become like this?"

Song Beiyun was at a loss for words for a while, but he didn't know what to say...

He is rich, but all his money has been used to create various awards. In recent years, technology has exploded, and the annual rewards are several million. He really can't afford much money. Now he doesn't He dared to go out to play casually, his body was tinkling in poverty, and he had to brazenly ask Fo Baonu or Jin Ling'er for his pocket money, and he was well mixed up to the point of eating soft food.

Moreover, he basically didn't need any money. The state basically contracted out food, clothing, housing and transportation, and he didn't support domestic slaves or oirans. Naturally, he didn't have the habit of putting money on him over time.

But he was very unhappy to be squeezed out by Yan Shu like this today...

"Yan Xiang, don't make fun of him." Ding Xiang shook his head with a smile and said, "His expenses have indeed increased in recent years."

"That's right." Song Beiyun echoed from the side: "I paid for your Yan Shu Literature Award, so you have the nerve to run on me."

At this time, Zhao Xing also came back to speak, and the curtain of the celebration just kicked off. The sound of the tide outside gradually faded away. Zhao Xing sat down on a chair and mumbled a big glass of water: "What are you two playing?" Woolen cloth?"

When Ding Xiang said the love-hate entanglement between the two of them, Zhao Xing immediately burst into joy: "What am I supposed to be? I actually came up with this idea. It's not entirely Song Beiyun's fault. He just helped me spread the word. Words. The heaven and the kingdom should give both kindness and power. In the past few years, the prestige has grown, and the kindness has fallen a bit. In fact, I really wish to raise a white-eyed wolf."

When Zhao Xing uttered these words, if any country's envoys were present, he would tremble. Although he didn't finish the first half of the sentence, the meaning was very clear. Not only was he not worried about raising white-eyed wolves, he even welcomed raising White-eyed wolf.

Because once this happens, it is tantamount to giving away the country for nothing.

"You still have a year and a half to go on vacation." Zhao Xing pointed at Song Beiyun: "Remember, don't play tricks on me."

Song Beiyun spat: "What kind of landlord algorithm are you? I'll hold a trade fair for you for two months, but come here and organize a celebration for you for one month? One year and nine months, or don't blame me for not doing it when the time comes." Take your order."

"Good guy, you are really daring to disrespect the order in public."

"Hey, it just so happens that Ding Xiang is here, you ask him to comment."

Ding Xiang smiled awkwardly, got up and said, "Oh, I'm getting old, I drank some cold water this morning, and my stomach feels a little uncomfortable, I'll come whenever I go."

"No one will help you anymore." Zhao Xing raised a finger: "One and a half years."

"That's fine. Then I have a request. You can arrange it during my vacation."

"Say!"

Song Beiyun was silent for a moment, then raised his head and said, "I want to see a railway paved during my vacation, the length of which must not be less than [-] kilometers."

"That's not more than 10 people...I'll go to the underworld to find you Yin soldiers, right?"

"This trivial matter will not trouble your majesty, long live your majesty, long live, long live, long live, long live, long live your majesty."

Chapter 889: Rain on February 11, 6

The emperor of the Liao Kingdom has not been in court for more than a month.

Don't ask, it means that the dragon is not in good health.But the emperor's failure to go to the court can no longer obviously affect the normal operation of the court, just like the one in the Song Dynasty next door. I heard that the man has never seen the court since last year's harvest, but Song The country is still developing steadily and orderly.

During this period, there were actually quite a few major events between the two countries. For example, the construction of the first combined fleet officially started. However, in order to avoid waste, the fleet will adopt a new formation model this time. Plus eight fast destroyers.

The flagship is an improved advanced battleship No. [-], and the new giant ship as the third flagship will be constructed in a way that subverts all previous design ideas, and the construction period is between five and eight years.

That is to say, when the third capital ship is launched, the concept of the ship will be completely subverted. It has unprecedented displacement, load capacity, firepower and functionality, and 60.00% to [-]% of the power will be steam power. This is enough to be recorded in the annals of naval history.

After that, the Song and Liao countries carried out large-scale cooperation in agriculture, and a variety of new crops have been extensively tested. Because Liao’s territory is relatively in the middle and north, they tend to cultivate wheat more. , potatoes and corn, while Song State is more inclined to rice, sweet potatoes, fruits, vegetables, rubber and other economic crops, effectively forming a situation where the two countries complement each other in terms of food.

At the end of February in the new calendar, the Liao Kingdom also officially passed a bill to abolish the emperor's year title system, replacing it with the new calendar as the public calendar, and passed the "Song and Liao General Household Registration System Trial Act", in the nine provinces bordering Song and Liao Take the lead in experimenting.

The most intuitive thing about the adaptation of the household registration system is the full opening of examinations, promotions, and trade. Although the procedures are cumbersome, they are no longer impossible.

Correspondingly, this kind of household registration reform itself is a kind of matter that involves mobilizing the whole body, which is a shock to many vested interests, but they have no better way to oppose it, because the strong centralization system makes them Even rebellion and rebellion are powerless.

At the same time, the Liao Kingdom even canceled the privileges of the two nobles. This is undoubtedly because Fo Baonu directly declared war on the Yeluzong family. This incident caused some turmoil, but Han Qi's control over politics is definitely not inferior In Song Beiyun, he first chopped off the land tax reduction and exemption policy of the Yeluzong family, and then nationalized the military power.

This whole set of actions was completed in a blink of an eye, and they were demoted three levels before they could even react.

Yeluzong's family naturally refused to submit. They reported to the group to warm up and wanted to impeach Han Qi and force Fo Baonu to submit, but Fo Baonu didn't see any of them. They just said that they were ill and sent them away.

During this period, there were rumors among the people that the emperor of the Liao Kingdom was a woman, and it seemed that someone had brought out the evidence, but this did not actually shake Fo Baonu's position in the Liao Kingdom.Although she is indeed not as smart as Zhao Xing, she has to admit that she is indeed a good emperor.

The most intuitive feeling is that during the seven years of Fo Baonu's reign, she is definitely qualified as an emperor. No matter what happens behind her back, at least compared to before, she has made great progress in all aspects, especially her After coming to power, there have been no large-scale wars and no large-scale famines.

Natural disasters may be inevitable, but man-made disasters are much less. Under such circumstances, who cares whether the emperor is a man or a woman? This kind of life may not be possible for another person.

And the fact that she is a woman doesn't seem to be a new thing. Every time she comes out, an experienced old lady will say that the emperor is not only a woman but also gave birth to a child.

Most of the people were just discussing and discussing it lively. In fact, there was not much resistance. As for the courtiers... Everyone is not blind. At the beginning, when she was the "big prince", she still covered up, but later she became the emperor. There's not much to cover up. Whose boy has such well-developed chest muscles?

But here lies the problem. Except for Yeluzong's family, no one cares whether he is a man or a woman. Especially after the Liao Kingdom went south to the Central Plains, this kind of concept has become weaker and weaker, and she is a woman. Why, since she personally conquered and drove the prairie Tartars who invaded Shanxi to the north of Yinshan Mountain, her gender is no longer important. In the words of the courtiers, if it wasn't for Song Beiyun, she would have been a wolf for 1000 years Cuxu's No.1.

Therefore, when Fo Baonu launched a war against the Zong family, the first responders were precisely his civil and military officials, and people also discovered a terrible thing, that is, although they had fought several times before, there had never been such a thing. There is a lot of movement, and this handwriting and movements are not in the style of Fo Baonu, but like...

Like Da Song's style of wielding swords against the gentry at that time, he paid attention to quickness, precision, firmness, ups and downs, and didn't even have time for people to react.

As we all know, Song Beiyun was the chief swordsman when the swordsmen were in the Great Song Dynasty, but now...

If Song Beiyun really came, then one Song Beiyun plus one Han Qi, once these two sword gods join forces, after killing Yeluzong's family, who will be the next to master the sword will be hanging over the heads of these people the sharp edge.

Of course, in addition to these things, there is another thing that makes people feel very mysterious, that is, Da Song will take the lead, and Song and Liao will cooperate to build a railway from Chang'an to Luoyang.

There are too many questions here, first of all, why it was not built in the territory of Song Dynasty first, second, why did it go from Chang'an to Luoyang, and finally why this railway was led by Jinling.

The motivation and purpose here are puzzling, but they have already broken ground on the other side. During this period, Song and Liao convened a total of nearly 70 workers. There are rumors that the Minister of Household Affairs of the Song and Liao Dynasties was crying in a tavern in Luoyang. Although it is not known whether it is true or not, it is really interesting.

As for other rumors, it was about the emperors of the two countries. One emperor disappeared, and the other emperor disappeared.

Zhao Xing of the Song Dynasty has been silent since the harvest in Daqing. Some people say that he went to sail on the East China Sea, and some people say that he went to the far north to farm. Anyway, there is no news at all.

Although the emperor of the Liao Kingdom has been in Luoyang all the time, he has been silent and does not show up or go out. However, there are folk rumors that a few days ago, a pregnant woman accompanied by a strange man went to the medical school of the Liao Kingdom for examination. body, one of the doctors recognized that the pregnant woman was the current Holy Majesty.

As for whether this news is credible or not, everyone just laugh it off. After all, if it is true, it is impossible to go to such an obvious place for a physical examination, let alone accompanied by a strange man. The emperor of the country.

However, folk speculations are not unacceptable. For example, Zhao Xing, who is now farming in Jinjing, drove the "Fearless Zhao Xing".

Now he is in charge of 65 mu of land alone, with more than 3000 farmers under his command, becoming the largest landowner across Asia.

In the Northeast, sorghum, corn, soybeans, rice, and potatoes are grown, and these fields are all opened up by Shengsheng. Shengsheng has turned the barren mountainous area into the south of the Yangtze River by himself.

Accompanying him is the former Emperor Wanyan of the Jin Kingdom, who is now wearing a straw hat with Zhao Xing in the field facing the loess and facing the sky.

It is said that during this period, he convincingly conceded defeat for the first time. What he said meant that he did not lose to Da Song's spear and short cannon, but to Zhao Xing, because before Zhao Xing, he had never lost I have seen any emperor who would be willing to follow a group of mud legs to drill the mountains and forests, expand the fields, eat brown rice, and dig wild vegetables.

Although even Zhao Xing himself didn't know what he did to make him admit defeat, as for the things he did, he didn't think it was worth mentioning at all. After all, everyone in the world could do it, so why couldn't Zhao Xing do it?

Today's Zhao Xing, if he doesn't wear a dragon robe, he can't tell what his identity is at all. Most of the time, he wears a straw hat and coarse clothes, stands in the field, yells and drinks, and eats what he brings in the morning. The dry rations that have come out have been completely cooled, and finally some meat is just as rejoicing to him as those farmers. If the kitchen puts more lean meat in the stew, he will also pat the table and scold his mother.

The conditions are really tough. Song Beiyun thought that he would never be able to withstand such hardships, but Zhao Xing not only survived, but also did a good job. During the Spring Festival, he even brought the local officials and other people with him. A small number of people went to the fields to work together, and the weather was still bitterly cold at that time, but Zhao Xing could really roll up his sleeves, lift up his trouser legs, and jump directly down to the rice fields to start transplanting rice seedlings.Seeing those officials grinning from the cold, he opened his mouth and cursed so badly that the people around him dared not laugh out loud even if they wanted to.

Every evening, Zhao Xing would squat with a group of mud legs on the ridge of the field with a large bowl of miscellaneous grain noodles, chatting about some vulgar topics, such as white legs and pink and tender noodles were their favorites.

As far as Zhao Xing has gained anything, it is really nothing for the country, but for him, at least Bai Hufeng has never committed any crimes during this period of time, and he has lost a lot of weight. He became much more energetic, but he couldn't get rid of the foul language that he was full of. He scolded people so vulgarly that officials from the Ministry of Rites could hang themselves. However, Zhao Jiazongtang came to him several times to beg him not to insult the country like this again, and Zhao Xing even agreed. I don't care.

"In a few days, when grandpa is free, I will take you bastards who have never seen the world for a walk on my Zhao Xing. I miss girls all day long. Can girls be motivated?"

The most leisurely and relaxing time for Zhao Xing every day is when he squats in the corner and brags with a bunch of workers after farm work, and every time at this time, as long as he opens his mouth, there is a happy atmosphere in the air.

"Officials, I heard that the emperor used gold hoes to farm the land. Why don't you make one."

"Say that you are ignorant, yet you dare to open your mouth. That thing can be used for farming? Of course it must be made of iron." Zhao Xing spat, and picked the wild vegetables stuck between his teeth: "Grandpa sent you A golden hoe, you come to plant the land, if you can’t plant it, your head will be chopped off.”

The man shrank his neck and shook his head hastily, and the people around him immediately burst into laughter.

"Speaking of which, it wasn't Xiu Mu a few days ago, I went to Jinjing." Zhao Xing squatted there and straightened his spine and said, "Guess what happened?"

The people around immediately gathered around, wanting to hear something new about this wonderful emperor.

"The greenhouse vegetables from our farm are twice as expensive as other farms, and people are willing to buy them. When the settlement is settled, each of you will share ten catties of pork belly!"

The surroundings were full of joy, and Zhao Xing slapped his thigh: "By the way, I heard there that some people said that I don't look like an emperor, and I fucking beat that person at that time."

"Really beaten?"

"Then can there be fakes?" Zhao Xing rolled up his sleeves: "My fist is not a vegetarian. I grabbed him by the collar and asked him, but you told my grandfather what the emperor should be like, and asked him what he thought. I don’t want to be the emperor for a few days and try to make a show. The soldier’s face turned pale at that time, and he was so frightened that he kowtowed and begged for mercy, so the Lord let him go.”

The surrounding suddenly burst into laughter, and the atmosphere was extremely cheerful.

And at this moment, a servant in formal attire tremblingly walked through the crowd to Zhao Xing's side, bent down and said, "Officials, Mr. Song has brought something, do you want to go and have a look?"

"Go."

When he returned to the resting place, he found a large wooden box on the table. He walked around the wooden box a few times curiously, touched the key next to him and opened the lock. Then he uncovered the red cloth, inside was a book and a flag.Underneath is a weirdly shaped gun and thousands of rounds of bullets...

"Ooh... new guy."

Zhao Xing picked up this weird-looking guy. Its barrel was very short, much shorter than the single-shot bolt-action rifles that are common today. Moreover, the butt and handguard were made of wood, and the processing method was similar to changed, and added a clip structure.

After fiddling with it for a long time, he installed this strange guy according to the introduction on the instruction diagram, and then pulled the trigger at a tree not far away.

After a burst of violent shaking, the bullets in the shuttle were completely emptied, and Zhao Xing's wrists were numb because of this, and his cheeks were also painfully bumped.

But even so, he couldn't hide his joy, playing with the iron thing in his hand repeatedly like a child.
