Start: Datang Wanli a lonely city

Chapter 508
On October 3th, the first year of Maode, at two quarters in the afternoon, that is, around [-]:[-] in the afternoon.

Du Baojun, who was wearing a six-pin Dasongzheng robe, the iconic green official robe, was sitting at a table next to the window on the second floor of a restaurant.

The square table was filled with good wine and dishes at the moment, exuding a tempting aroma.

With the current prices in Kaifeng City, it might not cost more than ten pennies to win just the good food on this table.

It's just that Du Baojun, who was about to vomit from eating pancakes and horse meat every day in front of this table of delicious food, didn't even take a second look at it.

The reason is very simple, because today is the new army of Song Dynasty returning from victory in Zhuxian Town.

It is an important day to present victory to Her Majesty the Empress with the captives.

Based on the distance between the two places and the footsteps of the new army soldiers escorting a large number of prisoners, after some calculations, they should have arrived at Kaifeng City at such a time.

After learning such a news yesterday, the people in the city went out early in the morning with the old and the young, trying to occupy the best position on both sides of the street.

At such a time now, both sides of the street are crowded with people.

In order to maintain order, all the yamen servants in Kaifeng Mansion are almost hoarse now.

And he, Du Baojun, since the head of the family decided their Du family in Huzhou a few months ago, he has completely surrendered to Her Majesty the Empress and Hu Shu's secret envoy.

It doesn't matter if you are passively being a hostage, or you are actively trying to get ahead.

Under the command of the noble concubine of the Commerce Department, she became a six-rank court official.

Although in the huge city of Kaifeng, there are quite a lot of small officials of the sixth rank like him; but Du Baojun, who is more or less self-confident, can't huddle together with the common people in today's situation. no?
So, I took the method of ordering a table of dishes in this restaurant, which was regarded as occupying a good position.

Even this morning, Du Baojun is not hungry at all because he ate three sets of deluxe pancakes.

It's just that there is no way, if there are fewer dishes, the store is not willing to let him occupy this good position.

In this way, Du Baojun, who had no intention of eating and drinking, kept poking his head out, looking towards the direction of the city gate, hoping to see the victorious army appearing in front of him.

In fact, Hu Shumi envoy and others led a mere [-] new soldiers of the Song Dynasty, plus some civilians, and defeated the Jin army several times.

It is said that Her Majesty, Empress Maode, intends to personally lead all the civil and military officials who stayed behind in the city out of the city to greet her.

And in this process, a group of civil and military officials will also adopt ancient rituals and personally dance for the army as a welcome.

However, when Privy Hu's secret envoy heard about the poor health of Empress Maude in recent days, he asked the messenger to send a memorial overnight.

In the memorial, it is said that His Majesty's body is the most important thing.

The Kingdom of Jin is still alive and well, so many members of the royal family and court officials are still in the hands of the Jin people, and they have suffered so much suffering and torture.

Therefore, although the army returned with a big victory this time, it is good to keep everything simple when celebrating.

When the army succeeds in the Northern Expedition in the future, it will go straight to Huanglong, welcome back the members of the royal family and important officials of the court, and it will be regarded as a real victory. After returning, it might as well celebrate grandly.

In Hu Shu's secret envoy, in such a sincere memorial, Empress Maude had no choice but to agree.

It can be regarded as an agreement between the monarch and his ministers, and the grand celebration will be held after the success of the Northern Expedition in the past. Such a beautiful story of the monarch and his ministers getting along...

While waiting anxiously, the voices of the large number of people gathered downstairs kept falling on Du Baojun's ears.

There are complaints of "you stepped on my foot" and curses of "stay away from me, disciples".

There were also children's cries, laughter, and their parents' reprimands, etc. After falling into Du Baojun's ears for a while, he was not impatient.

On the contrary, there is a sigh that such a life full of fireworks is really too good.

The main reason is that he has not forgotten that in the past half month, because of the worries and worries in his heart, people living in such a city seem to be full of restraint and caution even in the movement of breathing.

During this period of time, Du Baojun was also filled with an indescribable sense of depression.

What's more, I can't even buy a pancake, so I'm really hungry.

Fortunately, all of the above, as the news of the new army's victory came back, the entire Kaifeng city was immediately brought back to life.

It was also after losing it for a period of time that he once again felt such a lively atmosphere in the market. Now Du Baojun only feels joy in his heart, and he doesn't feel noisy.

Therefore, under the current circumstances, what Du Baojun is most interested in is the way Hu Shumi envoy and others enter the city.

Will it be the same as the last time when entering the city from the Cooking Bread Mountain, carrying the gods of many soldiers and civilians who died in battle at the front, and taking the lead in entering the city to enjoy the worship of all the people.

If this is the case, Du Baojun has already decided that he must offer three glasses of wine to these heroic spirits to express some respect in his heart.

However, soon after, Du Baojun knew that the situation was different from what he thought.

It was not long after, when the cheers of "Mr. Hu has entered the city" sounded and then fell down, and soon became a sound of gasping for air.

It was as if in an instant, everyone collectively had a toothache.

After Du Baojun saw the true face of Dajun, his reaction was the same.

Because the first thing that fell into his eyes was not the huge tablets one by one, but a number of large vehicles passing in front of them one by one.

On the empty compartment of the leading cart, there was only a firecracker fixed upright with a sharp bayonet, and a head was protruding from the sharp bayonet.

Although the man's head had been soaked in lime, the expressions of fear, grief, and even grievance solidified on his face before he died were so distinct.

As a literati, after seeing such a scene, Du Baojun did not feel the slightest fear.

If the emotions in the heart must have something to say, then there is only indescribable joy.

That's because there was a sign beside the firecracker, with a big character written on it with a brush: "The second prince of the false Jin Dynasty, the commander of the Song Dynasty army, Wanyan Zongwang, was beheaded by Zhu Xian with explosives by Li Sanxiang." town, only one head remains intact~"

By the way, there were also some tattered flags, which were thrown on the cart and rolled up like garbage.

You don't need to look to know that this is Wanyan Zongwang's handsome flag.

Once upon a time, Wanyan Zongwang's enemy chieftain was famous for his fierceness. To the soldiers and civilians of Song Dynasty, he was a fierce person who could stop children from crying.

Now that he has ended up like this, it can be said that Du Baojun couldn't help shouting out loudly under the surge of joy in his heart.

But soon after, he knew where it was going.

On the second cart that followed, it was fixed on a wooden frame, on which a one-armed Jurchen with golden armor was tied to it, and she had been dead for a long time.

There is a sign on the side with the above, which reads: Marshal Wanyan Xiyin, Marshal of the Great Song Army of the Pseudo-Jin Kingdom.

As Du Baojun heard the rumors in the court, he naturally knew that Wanyan Xiyin was in Dajin, but he was an important person who founded the "Jurchen Big Characters", that is, Jurchen Wen, capable of writing and martial arts.

Seeing the current scene, the joy in my heart became heavier again.

In the following time, one after another large vehicles drove past, all of which were corpses without exception.

They were either strapped to a wooden frame, or they were stabbed directly into the body by a number of bayonets, and they were supported by enough bayonets.

According to the wooden sign next to them, these people are some important figures in the Kingdom of Jin, or they are directly the famous fighters among the Jurchens.

In addition, although there were as many as 15 captives this time, it is naturally impossible to bring all of them when the army enters the city to show victory.

But Hu Biao and the others also selected five thousand Jurchen prisoners after a lot of work, and escorted them to follow the carts all the way.

After seeing these living Jurchens, although the people in the city were not rich, they didn't have any spare rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves to throw.

The streets are so clean that even some bricks and stones are hard to find.

However, based on the hatred for these Jurchens, for a while, crazy curses, saliva, and even shoes greeted these golden men like raindrops.

If it hadn't just happened to be blocked by Xiao Er, there was really no way to do it.

Du Baojun thought of picking up the stool under his buttocks and throwing it from the window to hit these Jurchens.

And these Jurchens who were so awesome in the past, besides bowing their heads and bearing it silently, they don't even have the courage to look up.

Like a wild dog whose spine has been disturbed, it doesn't even dare to bark loudly at people.

Even behind them, they followed a water dragon team organized by Kaifeng Mansion, constantly spraying clean water to wash the streets that these Jurchens had just walked through.

It was a way to show that the Jurchen's footsteps were dirty.

It can be regarded as an extreme insult to them, but these Jurchens still didn't respond at all; they just walked silently with their heads bowed like walking dead.

Sure enough, after this battle, the Dajin Kingdom has been broken, and it should be no longer a threat to Da Song.

The above joyful emotions finally became heavy after the Song Xinjun finally appeared in front of everyone.

This time Hu Biao and the others did not carry the gods of all the dead in public because of the rush of time, and entered Kaifeng City together to present their victory.

But the people in the city are in the ranks of troops where their brothers, sons, and husbands are.

After failing to see those familiar figures, after they gradually understood something, a loud howl suddenly resounded.

In contrast, the assassin was wearing a brand-new military uniform, but Hou San, whose left sleeve was already empty, was lucky.

Originally, he had already made enough preparations. After returning from this trip, no matter what, he would reconcile with his wife.

After all, the other party is a nobleman from the Tian family, so he can't suffer with a useless person like him, and it will delay him forever.

But when he looked at the familiar figure in the crowd, he saw pity in the other's eyes.

There are also some great blessings: as long as he, Hou San, is alive, it is better than anything else.

Unfortunately, there is no slight dislike.

Moments later, when the left arm was cut off by the golden man on the battlefield, the tough guy who didn't shed a single tear, had red eyes at this moment.

yes!As long as you are alive, everything is fine...

Finally, the army that entered the city to offer victory stopped in front of the palace.

It was also here that the people in the city saw Zhao Fujin dressed in plain onyx, and this Empress Maude appeared in front of them.

According to the news from the palace, this is the more than 2 Song warriors who died in the battle, and Her Majesty the Queen is wearing mourning in person.

After hearing this statement, all the soldiers and civilians respected this sage Empress even more.

They are not blind, so they can naturally see the pain from the heart of Her Majesty the Empress, as well as the hatred of looking at the Jurchens captives; all of the above can't be faked at all.

Only people like Hu Biao are the Queen Maude who knows how to dress up as a little widow.

This outfit was completely prepared for Brother AT.

Even with their means, from the mouth of the imperial physician and the valet beside Empress Maude, they found out in yesterday's time that this Majesty had nothing to do with AT at all.

It's really like what AT said at the beginning, the two of them are very pure, they just chatted about poetry and songs, maybe they just admire each other a little bit.

But everything starts with love and ends with courtesy.

But this also shows that Her Majesty the Empress really loves this little brother AT.

*******
With the sound of "Ah", Hu Biao sat up from a soft couch after stretching a lot.

With an expectant look in the eyes of an old housekeeper who had just recruited for a few days, he picked up a large pile of greeting cards and read them one by one.

When Hu Biao looked at these famous posts, it was said that he was an old housekeeper of some standard, so he also introduced:

"Alang, this is a letter of worship from the Jiang family; although the Jiang family is in the current imperial court, the highest official position is not just a Hanlin.

However, since the Tang Dynasty, the Jiang family has had the saying of "nine hous and five shepherds". It is definitely the first family in the Jiangnan area.

When I sent the greeting card this time, I inquired about it from the side.

It is said that there is a daughter of the direct descendants of their family, dignified and generous since she was a child, skilled in all kinds of music, chess, calligraphy and painting, she is a good companion for adults, so I want to get married with adults~"

"This is a greeting card from the Han family in Xiangzhou. The most famous person in the Han family is naturally the former Mr. Han Qi..."

While the old housekeeper was chattering, Hu Biao touched his face, and after the system disguised the location of the gold seal, his expression for a moment was quite wonderful.

Today is the fifth morning since they returned to Kaifeng City with the new army.

That day, in front of Queen Maode, after the robbing ceremony, Hu Biao participated in the imperial banquet again; after eating and drinking in a hurry, he took his leave and left.

And in the next few days, I didn't go to court, let alone work.

It's not that the living Cao Cao in the legend became more and more arrogant and domineering after he made such great contributions to saving Song Tianzhi this time.

It was really the great battle in Zhuxian Town, which exhausted the spirit and body of these commanders in all aspects.

In addition, in the previous time, the painstaking efforts to prepare for this big battle.

It is not an exaggeration to say that the consumption and damage to their bodies is not much worse than a serious illness.

So much so that in the next few days, they had to let go of everything and prepare to take a good rest for a week before talking about it.

After all, it is a machine, and it has to be shut down for maintenance from time to time, such as adding some oil.

However, even after eating and sleeping at home, eating after sleeping, and lying flat for three or four days, Hu Biao still felt a little overwhelmed.

But during the period of time when they were resting at home, after the results of such a battle were passed on by the Kuaima and the Clippers.

Within the territory of the entire Song Dynasty, the situation was stirring.

To know!When they first heard that the Jin Kingdom's 80 troops were attacking, even Hu Biao and the others were uncertain.

The border ministers, local tyrants, and aristocratic families from all over the Song Dynasty almost unanimously agreed that the new court of Empress Maode would inevitably end in destruction.

Immediately, in their hearts, they had some calculations and preparations of their own.

Either make preparations for electing Zhao Laojiu as emperor, forming a new court to rule along the Yangtze River, and prefer to settle down in the south of the Yangtze River.

Or go too far, and go directly to the Dajin Kingdom.

Unexpectedly, the new army of the Great Song Dynasty actually beheaded Wanyan Zongwang, Wanyan Zonghan, Wanyan Xiyin and a large number of Jinren commanders, and defeated the Jinren.

Of the majestic 80 troops, only one out of ten can escape.

So far, with their eyesight, they can't see that Da Song is a salted fish turning over.

From now on, this whole world will belong to Da Song; or in other words, it will belong to Hu Biao, Hu Yitong, and his followers.

Since ancient times, there are few people who give charcoal in the snow, and many people who make the icing on the cake.

So when Hu Biao and others were still sleeping at home, they were all sleeping in the dark.

First of all, the public opinion environment of the entire Song Dynasty has undergone a huge change. The saying that "Hu Yitong is a living Cao Cao" disappeared overnight.

Instead, Hu Yitong and Hu Gong deserve to be the pillars of the country.

It is not an exaggeration to have the credit of rebuilding the Song Dynasty this time, that is, to be ranked among the three princes and to be rewarded with Jiuxi.

At the same time, because Mr. Hu was worried about state affairs, the fact that he was not yet married also fell into the eyes of many people; so there was such a scene that although it was too late for him to come, he sent the invitation quickly.

In essence, it is a wealthy family, one after another put down their face to join and marry.

Except for Hu Biao, the big fat guy, even the rest of the team also encountered such a situation.

These so-called wealthy families simply ignored the fact that not long ago, they were still privately scolding these thieves for joining the army and stealing high positions in the court.

Regarding such a situation, Hu Biao and others suddenly couldn't laugh or cry.

But then again, according to some of their follow-up action plans, although they really don't plan to have anything to do with these ladies of the family.

But these single dogs who used to be in the modern plane and didn't even have girlfriends are still very happy.

What surprised all the netizens, including Hu Biao, was that the next stage of the mission was triggered so quickly and caught people off guard...
