[Comprehensive] Feasibility report on the restoration of the country

However, at the prisoner presenting ceremony three days later, Murong Fu went through the whole procedure obediently and cooperatively.Of course, Zhai Man believed that the main reason why Murong Fu was able to cooperate so much was in the prisoner offering ceremony, because he basically had no part in the scene other than wearing an official uniform as a stake.

On the day of Zhengdan, Zhe Keshi and Zhong Shidao led three thousand soldiers into the city at Yinshi and went straight to the Taimiao. After the selected captive-offering soldiers escorted a hundred Xia Guo captives, the people watching outside the Taimiao immediately rang There was a huge cheer.After the rites and music were played, it was Honghe Temple who read Lubu.Nalu Bu wrote to ask Qu Juya, but the meaning translated into vernacular is very simple and clear.The general idea is: Xia Guo has always been very rude and rude for many years, and the state of etiquette in the Song Dynasty has endured several times but has not been rewarded with friendship.Whether it is tolerable or unbearable, in order to uphold justice and relieve the people's downfall, Song Dynasty had no choice but to send troops to wipe out the disobedient ministers.Now that the country of Xia died, it was all their own fault, and the people of other countries should learn from it.Those who offend our strong Song Dynasty will be punished even though they are far away, don't say that they are unpredictable!

Afterwards, Zhao Xu personally went to the Taimiao to worship, and the first part of the prisoner offering ceremony came to an end.

The second part of the prisoner presenting ceremony is that the officials moved to the Daqing Hall to accept Murong Fu's gift of Xia Guo's ritual vessels and fish scale albums.In the evening, a banquet will be given to the Shengping Building, and the officials and officials will sing and dance, eat and drink to complete the ceremony in a harmonious and harmonious way.

However, when Zhao Xu returned to the Daqing Hall with his group of officials, and the servants took over the memorial presented by Murong Fu and read out all the trophies one by one, Zhao Xu's brows unconsciously frowned slightly.Compared with the astonishing feat of destroying the Xia Kingdom, the spoils brought back by Murong Fu are really a little out of hand.Apart from the land and population that no one can take away, what is left to Zhao Xu are some Xia Guo sacrificial vessels, several boxes of gold, silver and jewels, and two heads of the Xia Guo Empress Dowager and the emperor.This accumulation of money is not even as rich as the income from the inspection of Zhao Ting's house back then.Of course Zhao Xu was very dissatisfied, and before the waiter finished reading the food, horses and other wealth listed below, he couldn't help asking Murong Fu: "Is there only so much money in the country of Xia for a hundred years?"

Seeing that Zhao Xu's eyes were only fixed on the floating wealth, Murong Fu still couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart. "Going back to the official house, the successive monarchs of the Xia Kingdom were all greedy and extravagant, so naturally they accumulated a lot of wealth. It's a pity that the day our army broke through the city, the Empress Dowager Xia and the little emperor would rather die than surrender, and even set fire to the palace, so... "

Hearing this, Zhao Xu couldn't help but sneered, and said slowly: "Many priceless treasures have been burned, but the bodies of the Empress Dowager Xia and the emperor are still well preserved. Rare! Rare!"

Zhao Xu's words were very sarcastic, but Murong Fu didn't seem to realize it, and just said honestly: "Although the body must be preserved, the appearance is already extremely indecent."

"In this way, there are still doubts about whether the corpses discovered by Yan Yanjun belong to the Empress Dowager and the Emperor of Xia Kingdom?" Murong Fu's words fell, Zhao Xu seemed to have caught something, and couldn't help but questioned aloud.

As soon as Zhao Xu's words came out, the entire Daqing Palace was in an uproar.It was a happy event for the Great Song Dynasty to destroy the Xia Kingdom, but as an official, it is a bit stupid to question the heroes in front of the foreign vassal.Seeing Murong Fu kneeling on the main hall immediately, he replied loudly: "I dare not bully you even if I die!"

"Whether it's a deception or not, it will be clear if you present those two heads." Zhao Xu's expression was still cold, and he didn't make Murong get up again.The captives offered by the Taimiao were live captives, but Zhao Xu had never seen the two heads of the Empress Dowager Xia and the Emperor.

Unexpectedly, this time, Murong Fu became stubborn, he just shook his head and said: "The head is bloody, the official family is still young, according to my opinion..."

What Zhao Xu hated the most since he came to power was someone saying that he was young, Murong Fu's words undoubtedly violated his taboo again.Seeing Zhao Xu slapping the imperial case, he said darkly: "Murong Qing, do you dare to resist the order?"

"I don't dare!" Murong Fu's forehead broke out in cold sweat, and he quickly turned his head to wink at Zhong Shidao who was kneeling behind him.

Master Zhong understood, strode out of the Daqing Hall and brought in the two wooden boxes containing the heads of the Empress Dowager Xia and the emperor.

However, without waiting for Master Zhong to hand over the two wooden boxes to the servant, Murong Fu stood up and took them over, earnestly said: "Officials, please call the doctor of the Ministry of Rites." The current doctor of the Ministry of Rites is Zhai Man, he He once represented the Song Dynasty as an envoy to Xia Guo to meet the Empress Dowager Xia and the emperor.

But how could Zhao Xu trust a Shu party?Seeing Murong Fu's flustered expression, he became more and more convinced that there was something wrong with the two heads, so he waved his hand to the waiter and said: "Bring the things up!"

"Follow the order!" Hearing this, the waiter hurriedly snatched the two wooden boxes from Murong Fu's hands, and hurriedly put them on the imperial case.

Seeing the waiter slowly open the wooden box, Murong Fu couldn't help shouting anxiously and angrily: "Guanjia!"

Zhao Xu just sneered at it, and lowered his head to examine the two heads inside the wooden box.It took several months for the Western Army to travel long distances before returning to the capital. Naturally, this head is not new.In order to maximize its preservation, the two heads have been pickled in lime beforehand.At this time, the two heads that Zhao Xu saw were still covered with a lot of lime, and they didn't look real, but more like two wooden dummy heads.At the same time, the face of the human head is also blurred, and it can only be roughly distinguished that they are the heads of an adult woman and a young child.

Zhao Xu had never met the Empress Dowager Xia and the little emperor, so naturally he couldn't tell the truth from the fake.He looked at the two heads for a while, and his heart was already faintly cold.Just about to order the servant to send the two heads to the minister for identification, who would have thought that the two heads opened their eyes at the same time and stared at Zhao Xu firmly.

"Ahhh!" Zhao Xu was born in a deep palace and grew up in the hands of a woman. He had seen such horrible things before, and immediately screamed out. "He has opened his eyes! He is not dead...he has opened his eyes..." I saw him panicking and pushing away the imperial case, jumping up from the dragon chair as if he had seen a ghost in the daytime, and staggered backwards. go.

"Officials! Officials!" Seeing this, the servants standing under the steps rushed up to support Zhao Xu.

However, Zhao Xu was scared out of his wits early on, so he yelled loudly with a pale face: "He has opened his eyes...Murong Fu, you deceive the king!...You all want me to die! You all want me to die!" His face was distorted and full of hostility. Seeing the servant rushing forward, he not only wanted to struggle, but also wanted to bite madly.It looks terrifying, but how can there be any trace of a gentleman?

Zhao Xu suddenly went berserk, and all the officials in the palace were in an uproar.Everyone was at a loss, when Murong Fu suddenly ran up the jade steps, he said in a deep voice: "The official is hysterical, call the imperial physician! Retire!" At this time, his expression was calm and composed, not as embarrassed as he was when the imperial court responded to it just now. ?

With Murong Fu's words, Su Zhe, the current head of all officials, realized that it would be indecent for Zhao Xu to continue making trouble, so he hurriedly followed up two steps and loudly ordered: "Retire from the court! Retreat from the court!"

That night, the [-] soldiers who had returned from the great victory failed to enjoy the feast at the Shengping Tower, but returned to the camp early to stand by.As for their superiors, Murong Fu, Zhe Keshi, and Zhong Shidao, they have knelt outside Funing Hall for several hours.

It was not until the moon was in the middle of the sky, Zhao Xu, who had been tossing in Funing Hall for a long time, drank the Anshen soup and fell asleep, and the Queen Mother finally had time to summon the three of them in the side hall.

As soon as the three of them entered the side hall, they knelt down on the ground again and pleaded guilty in unison: "I will die!"

Empress Dowager Xiang supported her forehead wearily, and asked slowly: "What's going on?" Murong Fu was about to explain, but Empress Dowager Xiang asked again. "Zo Keshi, tell me!"

Zhe Keshi heard the words, and immediately glanced at Murong Fu from the corner of his eyes, and then he narrated everything that happened in the Daqing Palace, and finally said: "I have never obstructed the officials, it is a death penalty! A death penalty!" As soon as he finished speaking, He and Murong Fu and others touched the ground with their heads at the same time.

What happened in the Daqing Palace, the Empress Dowager has already been informed by her servants.The two heads have also been examined by the imperial physician, and there is nothing wrong with them.At this time, Ting Zhe Keshi described the situation at that time as the same as what the servant said, and confirmed that Murong Fu was indeed innocent, and he could not help but give a little sigh of relief to the Queen Mother.She was silent for a while, then said softly: "The officials have been in a bad mood these days, but today they suddenly saw the bloody head and thought they were frightened, so they misunderstood it. You are really innocent in this matter. , Aijia first apologizes to everyone."

Although the royal family in the Song Dynasty treated ministers kindly, it was rare to see such respect as the Queen Mother. Murong Fu and the other three also apologized repeatedly after seeing this.

"After a busy day, everyone is tired too. Zhe Keshi and the teacher's way, you should step back first!" Xiang Hou said again.

Zhe Keshi and Zhong Shidao heard this, they couldn't help but look at Murong Fu again.Noticing Murong Fu's wink at them, the two breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly retreated.

Unexpectedly, Zhe Keshi and Zhong Shidao left the side hall as soon as they left the side hall, and immediately turned their eyebrows upside down to the Empress Dowager with a serious face.She patted the armrest of the seat, fixed her eyes on Murong Fu and asked sharply: "Murong Qing, tell the Ai family the truth, the official's sudden madness today has something to do with you?"

Murong Fu was not surprised when he heard the question from the Empress Dowager, he immediately raised his right hand, and said decisively: "Mr. Murong Fu swears today that he will never bully or endanger the officials with a single word or deed. If he breaks his oath, he will be punished." Chen Tian strikes lightning and kills Wu Quan's corpse!"

In fact, how could a person whose head had been beheaded for several months suddenly open his eyes?Zhao Xu was frightened today precisely because when Murong Fu took over the two wooden boxes containing human heads, he secretly vibrated the eye nerves of the two heads with his internal force, deliberately scaring Zhao Xu.Zhao Xu is now in charge of the government, he killed him and refused to reward the ministers, Murong Fu really had nothing to do with him.However, Zhao Xu could not care about being named a foolish king after a hundred years, but Murong Fu could not care less about his actions affecting morale and shaking the country.Three days ago, Zhai Man came to report the news, saying that it was Zhao Xu who delayed the award with the excuse of illness, but this just inspired Murong Fu.

Since Zhao Xu wants to pretend to be sick, let the fake come true and let him continue to be sick!For an official who is prone to hysteria from time to time, and an official who doesn't know what kind of crazy things he will do, it is only natural for him to share the government affairs with capable ministers.In the Daqing Palace, Zhao Xu asked to see the two heads on his own, which hit Murong Fu's heart.Even if he never mentioned it, Murong Fu would try his best to let him see it.Of course, now it was Zhao Xu himself who proposed it, which undoubtedly cleared Murong Fu's suspicion. Such an ending couldn't be more beautiful.

Murong Fu made this poisonous oath, he let out a long sigh of relief to the Empress Dowager without any doubts. "Get up!"

"Thank you, Empress Dowager!" Murong Fu stood up now, and asked cautiously. "Queen Mother, what is the current situation of the official family?"

Speaking of this, Queen Mother Xiang couldn't help sighing.Just now Zhao Xu was hysterical for a few hours, at one moment he said that someone was going to murder him, and at another moment he said that he wanted to abolish the empress and kill the minister.Until he was exhausted, he instructed the Queen Mother to pour him down the soothing soup.Empress Dowager Xiang has seen those two heads before, although they look a little scary, they are by no means to the point of driving people crazy.After thinking about it, the only explanation is that the officials are cowardly.If it's just a cowardly heart, it's fine, but if he doubts the loyalty of his courtiers who have made great contributions to him, and he also has thoughts of abolishing his wife who treats him as a guest, this has to be chilling.I saw that the Queen Mother was silent for a while, then shook her head and sighed: "The death of the Queen Mother is really a misfortune for the family and the country."

Speaking of the Empress Dowager, Murong Fu was immediately speechless, and after a long silence he sighed in a low voice: "It is my fault for not being able to accompany the Empress Dowager for the last journey."

Compared with the official's fickleness, it is obvious that Murong Fu's softness is more sympathetic to the Empress Dowager, she suddenly raised her eyes to look at Murong Fu for a while, and comforted her: "The official is not feeling well these days, so I will award you The matter has been delayed. When he is in good spirits, he will give an explanation to the Western Army, Murong Qing, don't worry." Zhao Xu held on to the memorial of the award and did not reply or respond, and after a long time, naturally, even the Empress Dowager Xiang, who was in the harem, knew about it.It's just that now that Zhao Xu is already in charge, even though the queen mother does not agree with Zhao Xu's actions in her heart, she can't say anything more because of the rules that the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics.

Murong Fu also knew that it was useless to comfort the Empress Dowager, but at this time someone comforted her better than no one cared about her.Therefore, Murong Fu still put on a touch of consolation very cooperatively, and replied in a low voice: "Thank you, Queen Mother, for your concern! This humble minister is only in his thirties now, and he is already a fourth-rank official with a high salary. Minister, it is insignificant. It is the soldiers of the Western Army who are going through life and death to expand the territory for the officials. If there is no explanation, the world may be disturbed, so we must investigate!"

Murong Fu's words were really heart-to-heart, and Queen Mother Xiang couldn't help nodding her head again and again.However, everyone is a sensible person, only the officials are confused, and it is helpless that the Queen Mother is not Zhao Xu's biological mother. "When the official family gets better, the Ai family will persuade one or two."

"Thank you Queen Mother." Even though he knew that Zhao Xu would not listen to the Queen Mother's persuasion, Murong Fu still bowed deeply to express his gratitude.After exchanging greetings with the Queen Mother, he also left the palace very quickly.

The author has something to say:

Murong: Fight with me?

Zhao Xu: Traitor!
