In the end, Shen Ji couldn't resist the temptation of the famous Confucianism, and happily told her parents that she would go to Luoyang with her.

Shen Yilu's expression was rather indescribable, and in the end he just told her to be careful in her words and deeds, this time he is not around, I hope she will not cause any trouble.

Yan Shu said: "The opportunity is rare, let me go too!"

Shen Yilu was surprised: "Are you going to Luoyang too?"

How many years has it been since Yan Shu left Kaifeng Mansion?The farthest place she went was Taikang's hometown, so why did she suddenly go to Luoyang on a whim?

"Well, I haven't been to Luoyang for many years, so I just went to inspect the fields there."

As soon as she explained it like this, Shen Yilu understood, but he still didn't understand why Yan Shu took Tian Li with him.

In this regard, Yan Shu also had his own thoughts: "She is always Ji'er's biological mother, and I am getting old, and I don't know when I will die. This family still depends on her and Yinniang to take care of it. They went to Luoyang together to study and study."

Shen Yilu was silent, and after thinking for a long time, he couldn't find fault with what she said, so he could only acquiesce in the fact that the whole family went to Luoyang to be happy, leaving him alone in Bianliang to happen again.

Yes, again.

This can't help but remind him of how he seems to have spent the past ten or twenty years.

Over time, he has gotten used to it? !

Facing the old wife's pessimism, Shen Yilu could only persuade her optimistically: "You can still live a long time, and you can still live a life full of grandchildren, don't think so much."

Yan Shu didn't say anything.

I don't know how far the gears of fate have turned.

The information she grasped gradually did not match the current world. After all, when Shen Ji, a "butterfly" born in China, flapped his wings, history changed, and no one could predict what the future would be...

Maybe it's time for her to let go of some of her burdens and give Tian Li a relatively stable life.

Tian Li had waited for her for too many years, and she could no longer live for her own benefit.

Sure enough, after learning that Yan Shu was going to take her to Luoyang this time, Tian Li was a little unbelievable at first, then his cold eyes softened, and his eyes were still a little red, and said: "I thought you still wanted to Focus on the overall situation.”

What's the big picture?Tian Li vaguely knew about it, but she never thought about going to the bottom of it, because she was afraid that if she crossed this line, Yan Shu's attitude towards her would change.

"There's no end to worrying about the world's affairs. Ji'er is already able to take care of things, and I can also hand over the burden to her."

Tian Li hooked her hand, and the possessiveness in his eyes became more and more intense: "Then you will be mine for the rest of the day."

……

Boss Zhao didn't plan to go to Luoyang this time with ease. Although it would be a waste of time and money to put on a big battle, he has just pacified Jiangnan and has the capital to further solve the financial difficulties.So on this trip, he not only brought the important ministers of the court, but also his queen, children, and clan relatives.

Compared with many emperors in the previous dynasty who traveled with a bunch of concubines, Boss Zhao's harem is relatively simple - he doesn't even have a concubine, and all the children are born to his queen.

Compared with him, Zhao Guangyi is not so dedicated. There are many beauties in his house, and it is rumored recently that he has taken a fancy to the imperial concubine who was captured with the Lord of Jiangnan after the Jinling City was broken.

Most of the beauties in the harem of the lord of the south of the Yangtze River are well-known in the world. After all, he himself wrote in the poem: Evening make-up, clear skin and snow, spring palace concubines lined up.Feng Xiao blows through the water and clouds, and presses the song from "Neon Clothes" all over the place.

The palace maids and concubines, whose skin is more beautiful than snow, are glamorous and moving, lined up one by one, and danced the pleasing "Neon Clothes and Feather Clothes"...

Even if you have never seen court dance music before, you can imagine how lively this scene is.

When Jiangnan Guozhu wrote this word, he probably didn't think that his harem would be targeted because of this one day.

However, this is also expected. After the Jiangnan Kingdom was broken, these palace servants of the Jiangnan Lord were also distributed as spoils to the clan nobles, or were reduced to palace slaves. It was no better than Lu Nianchuan's experience back then. where to go.

When Shen Ji went to Luoyang this time, he wanted to see if the Lord of Jiangnan would accompany him. On the day of departure, he was a little regretful when he learned that the Lord of Jiangnan was still trapped in his house in the northwest corner of Bianliang.

She changed her mind and thought: "That's right, after all, he is the king of subjugation, and the officials are on guard against him, why would they take him to Luoyang?!"

On the contrary, Xu Xuan, Zhang Ji and others who were surrendered ministers were much freer.

Thinking of Zhang Ji, Shen Ji remembered that she had been entertained by Zhang Ji when she and Lu Duoxun were sent to the south of the Yangtze River. Although she knew that he was very talented, she also knew from others that his conduct was tainted.

At the beginning, she didn't have much contact with the other party, so she didn't have a deep understanding.Now that the other party has become a Song minister, she gradually heard something about the other party:

When the Song Army besieged Jinling, although the Lord of Jiangnan was kept a secret for a long time, he still found out later.On the one hand, he naively asked Xu Xuan to bring gold, silver and jewels to ask Boss Zhao to retreat, and on the other hand, he sent troops to resist.

At that time, he had two confidants Chen Qiao and Zhang Ji, both of whom advised him not to surrender. If Jinling City was broken, they would die for the country.

The city of Jinling was broken, and the lord of Jiangnan was afraid of death and wanted to surrender, but Chen Qiao died generously according to his agreement.It was Zhang Ji's turn. Not only was he greedy for life and afraid of death, but he also persuaded the Jiangnan Lord to surrender, saying that if he died too, the Jiangnan Lord would have no one to use around him.

The lord of Jiangnan didn't want to die, so he immediately agreed to surrender, and Zhang Ji himself drafted the surrender letter.

When he arrived in Bianliang, when Boss Zhao faced Zhang Ji, he reprimanded him in disgust, saying that if he hadn't been persuading the Jiangnan king not to surrender and not to go to the pilgrimage, Da Song would not have taken military action and paid such a price.Now that Jiangnan is gone, isn't it ridiculous that he, the main fighter, actually wrote the edict of surrender himself?What about his previous strength?

At this time Zhang Ji regained his arrogance, saying that this is just what he, as a subject, should be loyal to the king. What's wrong with him sticking to his duty?Even if the emperor wanted to kill him, he would still be generous!

Boss Zhao saw that he was so righteous and loyal, and felt that it would be a pity to kill him, so he kept him and gave him the official position of Prince Zhongyun.

Li Mu used to be the Crown Prince Zhongyun, so Shen Ji knew best what this official position meant.

What's more interesting is that Shen Ji also heard the old ministers of the Jiangnan Kingdom scold Zhang Ji, saying that he is a repeated villain, no matter how beautiful his words are, it can't cover up his cowardly, timid, greedy and fearful nature!

In the eyes of these old ministers, what's more, he is very stingy.

When the lord of Jiangnan once favored him, he promised him many benefits. Now the lord of Jiangnan has been reduced to a prisoner, and his life is difficult. He still goes to the door to ask the lord of Jiangnan for the benefits he once promised. The lord of Jiangnan has no The only way is to give him some appliances made of platinum in the residence.

Even so, he still felt dissatisfied. ①

Even Shen Ji, who is heartless, thinks that Zhang Ji is a wonderful person.

But no one is perfect, and she didn't intend to make friends with Zhang Ji. Boss Zhao used his value to lure her to go to Luoyang. If she didn't drain Zhang Ji's literary value, wouldn't she be sorry for Boss Zhao's expectations?

Thinking of this, Shen Ji geared up, looking for opportunities for Zhang Ji to write more articles.

-

On the sixth day of February, the procession of worshiping Luoyang in the west set off from Bianliang.

Yan Shu, Tian Li, and Li Yunyao all set off in a carriage with most of the officials' families, while Shen Ji mixed with the children of the aristocratic family.

Someone whispered: "This time the official family sacrificed to Luoyang in the west. The battle is really big. They even allowed our family's female relatives to be brought along, and I heard that there are still a lot of baggage this time. It doesn't look like going to sacrifice. Just go back to Bianliang."

Shen Ji said casually: "Perhaps the official wants to stay in Luoyang for a longer time!"

"It's abnormal."

Shen Ji looked over suspiciously, and the other party said: "Except for leading troops to conquer, officials have never tried to stay outside for a long time!"

Indeed, especially after returning from the last Northern Expedition to Liu Han, Boss Zhao seldom took charge of the expedition in person, and he was more often active around Bianliang.This time he was planning to stay in Luoyang for a long time, so he had to remind people of some rumors:

"Could it be that the officials really want to move the capital to Luoyang?"

"There's nothing wrong with Luoyang. I've been to Luoyang. It's spacious and the palace is big." Shen Ji said.

The children of the aristocratic family disagreed: "Luoyang can't do it, our family business is all in Bianliang, why should we abandon Bianliang and choose Luoyang?"

This is the thinking of most bureaucrats. They have been in Bianliang for decades, and all their foundations are in Bianliang. If they go to Luoyang, don't they have to start from scratch?

Moreover, the canals in Bianliang are accessible, and the wealth and energy from the south of the Yangtze River are continuously transported to Bianliang. Luoyang does not have such good water conservancy conditions.

So knowing that Bianliang has no danger to rely on and is not the best option for the capital, they will still put the safety of their home and country at risk for the sake of immediate benefits.

Unless Boss Zhao can follow the example of Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty, who has the determination to kill his own son and move the capital, and bloodbath the old nobles, moving the capital can only be empty talk.

Shen Ji said: "One day when Khitan calls, our lives will all be gone. Where is there any family property worth worrying about?"

The other party was very displeased by what she said, and planned to persuade her: "We have strong soldiers and horses in the Song Dynasty, and we have pacified the world. Why should we be afraid of the Khitan cavalry?"

Shen Ji wanted to say that the reason why Boss Zhao failed to attack Liu Han last time was because the Khitans sent reinforcements in time. Although Boss Zhao reached Jinyang, the capital of Liu Han, he had to retreat because of the timely assistance of the Khitans. Can pacify the north.

Although the population in the north is very small due to barrenness and war, the only army that can deter the Song Dynasty is the army led by Liu Jiye.

Although Liu Jiye's name is similar to Liu Jiyuan, the emperor of the Liu Han regime, they are not actually brothers and relatives.Liu Jiye's original name was Yang Chonggui, the son of Yang Hongxin, the governor of Linzhou. He was named Liu Jiye because he had been with Liu Chong since he was a child and was very popular.

He is very brave and good at fighting, and has repeatedly made military exploits, so he has the nickname "Invincible".

He also has a wife with an equally prominent background, Zhe Shi, who is also famous in Bianliang because of his wife's agility, good riding and shooting, and both civil and military skills.

Shen Ji's thoughts drifted away, she came back to her senses, and did not comment on the views of the children of the family.

When we arrived in Luoyang, the former Luoyang palace city had been repaired in sevens and eighties. Although it could not restore its most glorious appearance, it was enough for Boss Zhao to deeply appreciate the difference between this palace city and Bianliang.

Sitting in the main hall of Luoyang Palace, looking at the spacious hall, Boss Zhao remembered what Shen Ji described to him when he came back from his trip to Luoyang the year before last. Such a big palace can indeed accommodate more people...

Naturally, Shen Ji and others were not qualified to live in the palace, but Jiao Jixun and others also cleared up some mansions and post houses near the palace for these officials to live in.Shen Ji and others lived in the house of a former senior official.

Many buildings here have long lost their original magnificence, and have been divided up a lot by the common people and Luoyang tycoons, so this house, under the guise of a former high-ranking official's mansion, is actually a house rented by Jiao Jixun.

"Let's go out to play." Xue Ji came to call Shen Ji, "Wang Chengyan and the others are going to hold a banquet, so they asked us to have wine."

"Just arrived in Luoyang, don't they need to rest?" Shen Ji said.

"They have already sent their servants over to take orders, and the drinks and food have already been prepared."

Shen Ji thought, this group of young masters enjoyed it more than she did.

"No, the official family will definitely stay in Luoyang for a longer time, are you afraid that there will be no chance? I will take a rest with my mother first. They must be tired after tossing around for so long."

Seeing that Shen Ji moved out of his family to marry relatives, Xue Ji didn't force himself, and went to the banquet by himself.

Shen Ji closed the door, turned around and went to find someone to find out where Xu Xuan lived.

The author says:

Seo Hyun: Don't come here!

Notes: ① Zhang Ji has mixed reviews, from "Song History Zhang Ji Biography"

②Liu Jiye's original name was Yang Chonggui, but Zhao Guangyi changed his name to "Ye" after he surrendered to the Song Dynasty. His wife's name was Zheshi.Can you guess who it is?
