677. Marshal Song Yue
There was no expression in Dali and Yuan Dynasty.
In the Song Dynasty, Deputy State Councilor Chen Wenlong personally went to Xixia to congratulate Empress Li Xiushu.
He did not bring any gifts, but only Zhao Dongting's documents. This made the empress smile and the ministers were also surprised or happy.
Although Zhao Dongting's document only simply congratulates Li Xiushu on his ascension to the throne, the meaning of this is enough to be thought-provoking.
Isn’t this the Emperor of Song’s recognition of the restoration of the Western Xia Kingdom?
When Li Wangyuan was elected as emperor in the army, he never enjoyed such treatment.
Recognizing the restoration of the Western Xia country means that Zhao Dongting admits that Fengxiang, Lintao and Lizhou belong to the Western Xia routes.
Zhongsun Qifu and others, who had always been upset about this matter, were completely relieved.
They were worried that the Emperor of Song would return these four routes to the Yuan Dynasty for the reason that the Yuan Dynasty gave them to the Song Dynasty. In this way, the Western Xia would be enemies all over the world.
Li Xiushu, Zhongsun Qifu, Tuoba Xiong and others grandly entertained Chen Wenlong in the palace.
When Chen Wenlong left Zhongxing Prefecture, he also brought Li Xiushu's documents. Xixia was willing to make friends with the Song Dynasty, Qin and Jin.
This is naturally good news for the Song Dynasty.
The Song and Yuan dynasties discussed peace and Song and Xia formed an alliance. It is conceivable that in the past few years, there would be a possibility of going to war with the Song Dynasty, and only Dali was left to hinder the development of the Song Dynasty.
But Dali, do you have this courage?
Just after the third day of the Lunar New Year, Zhao Dongting brought Ying'er out of the palace. In addition to the several worshippers in Wuding Hall, there were many eunuchs and guards accompanying him, which could be said to be a huge momentum.
He first went to the house of the State Councilor Lu Xiufu to wish Lu Xiufu a New Year. Then he went to Wen Tianxiang, Zhang Jue, Su Liuyi and others' homes.
Outside the Changsha Royal Palace, Zhao Dongting's houses lived in the residences of all senior officials.
Although there are not many rewards, this kind of intention alone has already made these old ministers cry.
In the past, there was no precedent for the emperor to greet his ministers in the New Year?
Not to mention being personally here, it is already a great honor to send an envoy.
After leaving the family of all the ministers, Zhao Dongting went to the military camp to personally visit the Tianshang Army and the Feilong Army soldiers.
This also made countless old soldiers' eyes red.
Especially in the Feilong Army, many old soldiers followed Zhao Dongting when they were on the island of Qizhou. They were witnesses of the development and growth of the entire Song Dynasty, and they shared the honor and disgrace of the Song Dynasty in their hearts.
This year is so lively and comfortable!
After the New Year, he went to Changsha to go to the above-mentioned positions of emperors in the border areas.
After Zhang Jue, Wen Tianxiang and others reported their duties to Zhao Dongting, they rushed back to the army. Zhao Bing also returned to Yongzhou, but he took Miss Hongxiu.
He really had the means to really convince the girl Hongxiu. Perhaps this has something to do with the folk rumors that King Guang was gentle and elegant.
The entire Hongxiu team followed the water and rushed to Yongzhou with King Guang Zhao Bing.
No need to think that when they arrive in Yongzhou, they will at least become the royal opera troupe of Guangwangfu. They will no longer have to sing operas everywhere and run around.
Feng Tingluan, the governor and transport envoy of Guangnan East Road, Dong Zhen, the governor and transport envoy of Guangnan West Road, Wang Yinglin, the governor and transport envoy of Jiangnan West Road, and Huang Hua, He Dongqiang, Liu Hongyi and others went to Changsha in person.
The newly appointed minister of Kuizhou Road and Transport Authority Zhao Yuluo and other ministers were exempted from reporting their duties shortly after taking office, but Yue Peng, as the Grand Marshal of Zhenxi Military Region, had to rush back to Changsha to report their duties.
At the end of January, these officials from the border went to Changsha one after another.
This naturally made the city of Changsha again and it was very lively.
These officials from the border are all pillars of the Song Dynasty. When they came to Changsha, people would always rush to the city gate to watch and welcome them.
When Yue Peng led Kumano, Yue Yue and others, as well as more than a thousand elite soldiers to Changsha, the grand scene of a vast street appeared in Changsha City.
Among the people, Yue Peng's reputation is no less than Wen Tianxiang, and even a little more popular than Zhang Jue, the deputy military commander.
Since the incident of blocking the white horses at the city gate in Chongqing, the people have been filled with all kinds of his legends.
In just a few years, he became the Grand Marshal of the Tangxi Town, which also added a bit of legendary color to his experience.
"Master Yue!"
"Master Yue!"
When Yue Peng entered the city with silver armor and silver spear, the voices of the people on both sides were as magnificent as a tsunami.
This surprised Yue Peng himself. He had never expected that he would cause such a big sensation when he went to Changsha.
This is still a grand occasion that Chongqing Prefecture, where life is in decline, cannot be seen.
"Brother, they are all calling you!"
On the side, Yue Yue was riding a little red horse with graceful curves. The wounds were healed and no longer had cold faces on her pretty face, and she smiled like the snow and ice melting.
She is proud of her brother.
Although her current rank is not lower than that of Yue Peng, who has not yet officially promoted the military rank, the Hall of Honor can only be regarded as a false position. In terms of achievements, it is naturally far from comparable to Yue Peng. Not to mention prestige.
Yue Peng's face turned a little red, obviously quite excited, and bowed his hands repeatedly and understood the people on both sides.
This made the people even more excited. Even the officials of the government office who maintained public order next to the street were affected by this atmosphere and shouted Yue Peng's name loudly.
Two days ago, Dong Zhen, Feng Tingluan and others rushed to Changsha, but this situation had never happened.
Create heroes in troubled times.
Under such circumstances, it is obvious that generals like Yue Peng are more likely to be deeply rooted in people's hearts.
More than a thousand elite soldiers behind them all held their heads and chests, very proud and powerful.
They are most proud of being selected into the Tiankui Army. This army is a trump card in the Song Dynasty.
Among the people, there are relatives of these soldiers. They stared at the army with their eyes tightly, looking for their own children in the army. When they found them, their faces were flushed.
"Wu'er!"
"Dang'er!"
"elder brother!"
After receiving the response from their relatives, these people would proudly say to the people next to them, "This is my son! This is my brother!"
The people next to them all showed envy and compliments. They had to say a few words like "The father of a tiger has no dog and son" and that the family will definitely be brilliant in the future.
Countless people surrounded Yue Peng to the palace.
Later, Zhao Dongting, who heard about this in the palace, was very surprised by this.
He personally rushed to the palace gate to greet Yue Peng.
It was not easy for this tiger general to return to Changsha alive. When Yue Peng was in Chongqing, Zhao Dongting really worried about him.
As soon as they met, Yue Peng, Yue Yue and others were about to kneel down and kowtow.
Zhao Dongting smiled and said, "Everyone is exempt from gifts."
Then he went forward and pulled Yue Peng's hand and said softly: "You guy finally came back alive. I think you will lose a brother this time."
Yue Peng's eyes turned slightly red and he said, "I dare not take it."
In his heart, he only regarded Zhao Dongting as his great benefactor. Although he had a close personal relationship, he did not dare to say that he was the emperor's brother.
Zhao Dongting said slightly dissatisfied: "You and I have been through life and death so many times, what can I do if I can't take it?"
Then he chuckled again, "If I hadn't said that there would be no title in the court in the future and no inheritance, I would have to be a king of a different surname this time."
The strategic significance of taking down Chongqing Prefecture and allowing the Song Dynasty to guard Chongqing, the key road connecting Shuzhong, is of great importance.
Yue Peng made an indelible contribution among this. This is the result of the sky.
Yue Peng was even more moved and said, "Yue Peng thanked the emperor. Yue Peng was already satisfied with being able to help the emperor."
These words are not polite.
To be fair, even if Zhao Dongting asked Yue Peng to die now, he probably wouldn't hesitate at all.
Since Yue Fei, the Yue family has now produced a marshal again. In Yue Peng's heart, this is all the gift of Zhao Dongting. If it weren't for Zhao Dongting's favor, he might still be just a small pawn, maybe he might be a young general, but he might have died in the chaos.
"Okay, we won't be polite."
Zhao Dongting pulled Yue Peng instead of going to the palace hall, but went straight to the harem, "Today, I and you will definitely come and never return without getting drunk."
"Yue Peng received the order!"
Yue Peng focused on the key points.
In the bedroom yard.
The eunuchs and palace maids have already set up a banquet.
Zhao Dongting, Yue Peng, Yue Yue, and Ying Er who accompanied him sat down. Apart from them, there was no one else.
Chapter completed!
