The next morning, several miles outside the north gate of Haikang County.

There are also scenes of countless civil officials and military generals, and the people greet each other in the road.

The people heard that the emperor was about to return to Hikvision in triumphality, and their expressions were full of joy.

Is the Song Dynasty already so relieved?

Before Zhao Dongting took office, he was beaten by the Yuan army and ran away in a panic. After Zhao Dongting took office, before the decisive battle in Guangxi, he was always struggling hard under the coercion of the Yuan army. If there was a great victory in Guangxi, the Song Dynasty would finally get a chance to breathe. Nearly half of the country was restored, it was just around the corner.

There was a news from the court, and the Yuan Dynasty would never be able to attack the Song Dynasty in a short period of time. The people were naturally happy.

This means that they can finally live a stable life.

It is hard to leave my hometown, and some people who left their hometowns and rushed to Haikang are even planning to return to their hometowns.

Near noon, the army was finally far away.

Under the scorching sun, the ministers, soldiers and the people were sweating profusely, but they all looked forward to it and almost no one left.

When the army was still nearly a thousand meters away from them, the people had already knelt down on the ground and shouted: "Long live the emperor! Long live the emperor!"

At this moment, Zhao Dongting's reputation in the Song Dynasty reached its peak.

He was the Emperor of Zhongxing who had won the tide of the Song Dynasty.

Yue Peng, Su Quandang, Miao Youli, Wen Tianxiang and others were riding at the forefront of the army. They all smiled when they heard the sound of the mountain.

The soldiers were all proud of their heads and chests.

In the dragon chariot, even Zhao Dongting, Tolando and others also heard the deafening sound of the mountain.

Zhao Dongting smiled faintly at the corner of his mouth, while Tulando looked at Zhao Dongting with complicated eyes.

It was hard for her to imagine that Zhao Dongting could have such a reputation among the people at the age of Zhao Dongting.

The closer the army is to the crowd, the louder the mountain is.

The war horses took leisurely and proud steps, carrying Wen Tianxiang and others through the crowd first, followed by horse soldiers with flags waving.

Some people also shouted about Prime Minister Wen, General Yue, General Su, etc.

For example, Yue Peng and other generals who followed Zhao Dongting to fight south and north now have great reputation among the people.

When Zhao Dongting's dragon chariot arrived, the overwhelming sound of the mountain seemed to be able to overturn the chariot.

Zhao Dongting could hear a strong sense of gratitude and expectation in these voices.

He walked out of the dragon chariot, stood outside the curtain, and waved to the people and soldiers on both sides of the official road.

This made the crowd even more excited, and some people kneeling were even filled with tears.

National emotions are something that is hard to describe.

The surging crowd almost knocked away the soldiers blocking both sides of the official road.

Tulando lifted the dragon chariot, looked outside, and was stunned.

She had followed the emperor's grandfather to the palace before, but most people seemed to have no enthusiasm for the emperor's grandfather.

In front of Zhao Dongting, her peer, she felt a deep frustration. She used to think she was too arrogant, but now she realized that she was just like this.

Behind the dragon chariot of Zhao Dongting, there were continuous infantrymen. Then, the infantrymen and the surrendered soldiers of the Yuan Dynasty were intertwined.

The soldiers of the Yuan Dynasty, including Monto, were all surprised.

The most surprising and exciting thing among them was Song Bitao. He probably never expected that the emperor would be so popular.

He didn't know how grateful Zhao Dongting made Leizhou a paradise, which made the people of Leizhou feel to him and the court.

When the army got Lu Xiufu and others approached, Wen Tianxiang raised his hand and the horse army slowly stopped behind him.

Ma Qian Lu Xiufu and others bowed to Wen Tianxiang and others, all with smiles on their faces.

Wen Tianxiang, Yue Peng, Su Quandang and other generals did not dismount, but bowed their hands and then asked to go to both sides.

The soldiers behind also made way.

Zhao Dongting's dragon chariot slowly came forward.

When Lu Xiufu and others approached, all the civil and military officials of the Song Dynasty led by Lu Xiufu fell to the ground, "Long live the emperor..."

If it were said that there might have been old ministers in the Song Dynasty who criticized Zhao Dongting's age. After all, there is a saying that he is hairless and does not do things well. Moreover, Zhao Dongting's numerous actions were quite bold, all of them were new policies that the previous dynasty tried. But now, all the ministers can be said to be convinced by Zhao Dongting.

Zhao Dongting's achievements were here. After he came to power, the Song Dynasty won consecutive victories and defeated the fierce Yuan Dynasty.

Not to mention that Zhao Dongting is now sixteen years old, even if he is only ten years old, no one dares to refuse to accept his achievements.

Who would have thought about himself and dared to say that if he was in charge of the army, he could defeat the Yuan Dynasty?

All the ministers knocked their heads to the ground.

At this time, all the important officials of the Song Dynasty gathered here, and even Zhao and Luo from Qiongzhou were in the army.

Zhao Dongting asked the ministers to remain calm and continued to wave to the people around him, and the army continued to move forward slowly.

In this way, the people on both sides were still invisible.

Until the street in front of the palace, the people were still looking forward to watch.

Zhao Dongting brought all the ministers into the palace, while Yue Peng, Su Quandang and others took their soldiers to the barracks.

There were also soldiers on both sides of the palace road. When Zhao Dongting and his ministers arrived, they knelt down one after another.

Concubine Yang Shufei, Ying Er and other daughters were waiting for Zhao Dongting in front of the hall.

When the girls saw Zhao Dongting coming, they all looked excited. If it weren't for the sake of etiquette, they would have run forward.

Zhao Dongting got off the dragon chariot and walked quickly to Yang Shufei, kneeled down to the ground, "My mother."

Concubine Yang Shuhu hurriedly helped Zhao Dongting up, looked left and right, and her eyes were already a little red.

Ying Er was even more crying next to her.

She and Zhao Dongting are real couples. When Zhao Dongting was leading troops out for war, there was actually no difference between her and ordinary women. She was looking forward to her husband's safe return every day.

The girl's eyes were red as well.

Zhao Dongting smiled at the girls, then took the hands of Concubine Yang Shu and Ying'er, and said, "Everyone follows me into the palace."

After saying that, he took the lead in walking into the hall.

All the ministers entered one after another.

Later in the hall, Zhao Dongting asked about Haikang's recent situation, but did not say anything about rewarding the generals. He just said that he went to Xianglong to pay tribute to the fallen soldiers a few days ago.

The ministers' expressions of joy gradually became addicted to each other.

Although the Song Dynasty won the time to breathe, it was exchanged for the lives of countless soldiers.

Zhao Dongting had someone hang a plaque with the "National Peace and People" on the dragon couch in the main hall, but at this time it seemed that these four words were covered with countless blood.

This is sad and helpless.

Zhao Dongting asked the soldiers and generals Qi Tianlang, Yan Mingling, Liu Yong, Ge Lichun, Ge Xiuhong and other generals to invite the ashes into the hall.

An old minister saw these urns and his eyes were red.

They were all rebels who came from all over the country to serve the king and generals of the wing army, but after they arrived in Guangxi, they could not return to Haikang with Zhao Dongting alive.

They are all loyal and fierce.

Zhao Dongting walked off the dragon chariot and slowly brushed his palms from the urns.

Some ministers burst into tears.

Zhao Dongting whispered: "They are all loyal and wise men of my great Song Dynasty. You all should remember their merits and take them as examples."

He intended to raise the status of these fallen soldiers in the court, because their spirit is the soul of the current Southern Song Dynasty.

In the Song and Yuan dynasties, the wars in Dali would break out sooner or later. Zhao Dongting must carry forward the spirit of Qi Tianlang and others who dared to sacrifice their lives for the country and shed their blood. Only by always adhering to this spirit in the army can the country last forever.

When Yue Peng, Su Quandang, Miao Youli and others arrived at the hall and saw the urns held by the soldiers, they all looked complicated.

The originally joyful expression on their faces quickly disappeared, and the pride or complacency in their hearts completely dissipated at this moment.

Zhao Dongting sat back on the dragon chariot and asked Lu Xiufu, Zhang Shijie and others to prepare to recommend the talents, and then all the ministers retreated.

Things had to be done step by step. He had just rushed back to Hikvision and could not handle all the political affairs immediately. Before sending officials to various places to serve, it was an inevitable step to examine these preparatory officials. The thousand-mile long dike would collapse into an ant hole. Now the Song Dynasty is destined to grow stronger at an extremely fast speed, but Zhao Dongting did not dare to send anyone to local officials.

He is well aware of the harm of corrupt officials.

It is difficult to fight the country, but it is even more difficult to defend the country. Speaking of which, governing the country is naturally more heartbreaking than fighting.

As the ministers retreated from the hall one after another, Zhao Dongting suddenly spoke, "Commander Xiao, go slowly."

Xiao Yulin turned around and bowed to Zhao Dongting, "Emperor..."

Zhao Dongting turned his head and looked at Lewu next to him, and whispered: "Lewu girl, is this your fiancé, are you still satisfied?"
