Chapter 111
Qin Fei didn't turn over the Qinling Mountains and return to Hanzhong as he did when he came here. Instead, he circled around and headed for Xiangyang via Ankang County!

In Chongyang Palace, after seeing off Qin Fei, several people started to go to the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion again to continue their unfinished research.

On the way, Wang Zhijin asked puzzledly: "Everyone, Junior Brother still doesn't understand why we don't want to help Song Chao?"

Yin Zhiping smiled and said, "What's the meaning of this, Junior Brother? Haven't we shown all the sincerity we can? How can we say that we can't help? If you want to talk about the assassination of Mongolian officials, forget it." .”

Naturally, they couldn't do this. If Qin Fei made the request in his personal capacity, Qiu Zhiqing wouldn't mind helping him, but Qin Fei made the request in his capacity as the head of the Imperial City Division.

This is very interesting. Assassination, no matter in the Song Dynasty, the former Jin Kingdom, or the current Mongolia, is a very taboo thing.

They are Taoist sects, and they want to preach, not a killer organization. There are some things that can be done, but they can't be publicized, and try not to expose them!

Cui Zhifang explained: "When the time comes, brothers and sisters, if anyone is free, he can make a detour by himself, close the gate, and just go down the mountain."

Several people returned to the scripture storage pavilion and continued to discuss their original question.

Seeing the long sword Qiubai flying around Qiu Zhiqing in front of him, Fang Zhiqi couldn't help but grab it.

"Hey~ don't!"

Seeing that Fang Zhiqi easily snatched the long sword that Qiu Zhiqing had just controlled with innate qi, everyone couldn't help laughing. They thought it was some kind of sword control, but it turned out that it was just a show.

The principle is the same as they use true qi to inhale objects, but Qiu Zhiqing can control the isolated innate qi more freely.

But after laughing, they began to fall into deep thought again, is this the benefit of penetrating the three dantians?According to this line of thinking, it is not impossible to control the sword with Qi, or to control the sword with God...

In Chongyang Palace, everyone discussed martial arts and explored the way forward, but at the foot of the mountain, the main theme was still war!

In the fifth year of Song Chunyou, in March, the Yellow River began to thaw. This is also one of the most unfavorable time periods for ferry crossings in the Tongguan section of the Yellow River. The Song Army's operations began!

First, Beijing (Daming Mansion) stayed behind with Meng Gong, rashly marching [-] horse infantry, along the Gan caliber of the eight Taihang trails, and marched westward, approaching Luzhou (now Changzhi).

Zhang Wei of Weizhou also led [-] troops, and since Weihui attacked Luzhou along the Baijing, the two armies attacked Luzhou in a pincer shape.

After the main force of the Mongolian army was attracted by Zhang Jin and Meng Gong, Li Boyuan led his troops to attack Jincheng through Taixing, and Quan Zi led his troops to take back Jiezhou...

The Song army was obviously carrying out a premeditated attack. Sure enough, when the Guanzhong army stationed in Huayin and Tongguan confronted each other left, Guo Jing made a bold attack and brought the Mongolian army back, firmly attracting them under Tongguan. .

In recent years, the Song Dynasty took advantage of the fact that the people in Henan and Hebei were plundered by Mongolia and a large number of fields were barren, and accepted Zhen Dexiu's suggestion to vigorously develop horse administration in Henan and Hebei.

Although there is still a big gap between the number and quality of horses and Mongolia, at least it is much better than when the three capitals were recovered, the whole army had 7 people and less than [-] cavalry.

In May, when the Yellow River was in a rush and the Mongols thought that the Yellow River would be the most difficult to cross by force, the Song army Li Boyuan and Quan Zicai, with a total of more than [-] people, gave up and went north to Taiyuan.

Instead, he crossed the Yellow River by force. Li Boyuan led his troops northward to recover Yan'an Mansion, and Quan Zicai was responsible for going southward to attack the Mongolian army in Guanzhong...

Guo Jing took the opportunity to attack, taking advantage of the opportunity of the Mongolian army being attacked from the front and back, and the morale of the army was unstable. He fought three times in a row, won three out of three, and directly pushed the battle line to Guda Sanguan, which is now the first generation of Guyuan.

Guo Jing's capture of Dasan Pass directly threatened the retreat of the Fengxiang Mongolian army. The Fengxiang Mongolian army retreated to Lanzhou under the siege of Guo Jing in Shukou...

By the end of the fifth year of Song Chunyou, the fierce battle lasted for more than half a year. In the end, the Song army won Guanzhong. Meng Gong and Zhang Yu fought fiercely with the Mongolian army in Luzhou for several months. The reinforcements arrived in Taiyuan, lost, and withdrew from Hedong. The battle ended. .

In this way, Quanzhen has returned to the embrace of the Song Dynasty.

In the same year, Zhao Yun, the official family of Zhao Song, moved to Luoyang, Xijing, despite the objections of his courtiers, to visit the tomb of his ancestor Zhao Kuangyin.

When Chongyang Palace got the news, it was already the second year, after the Lantern Festival of the sixth year of Chunyou!

Because at the beginning of February, the royal driver of the Song Dynasty official family appeared at the gate of Zhongnan Mountain, and Qiu Zhiqing led a group of disciples to welcome them. For a Taoist sect, the arrival of the emperor is undoubtedly the greatest support.

Under Qiu Zhiqing's guidance, Zhao Yun began to visit Chongyang Palace. Zhao Yun was not bad at all. After visiting along the way, when he came to Yuzhen Temple, Zhao Yun couldn't help wondering, how did they get the money to build this Taoist temple?

When Qiu Zhiqing informed that this was built by the refugees who fled and the disciples from the outer sect, Zhao Yun couldn't help asking:
"I heard that the most authentic Taoist sect in the world today is the Quanzhen Sect, and the largest sect in the world is the Beggars' Sect. I don't know which one is stronger, Chonghe brother, the number one sect in the world, or the Beggars' Sect? "

Qiu Zhiqing didn't know if Zhao Yun was pretending to be confused. The relationship between the Beggar Clan and the Song Dynasty can be seen from the relationship between the Beggar Clan and the imperial court in the Northern Song Dynasty.

Behind the beggar gang has always been the figure of the Song Dynasty court, and it was only when the Kingdom of Jin went south that this pattern was broken. According to Qiu Zhiqing's knowledge, Qiao Feng, the leader of the Northern Song beggar gang, was before.

The entire top management of the Beggar Gang had vague connections with those generals. Even now, Lu Youjiao is the head of the Beggar Gang in name, but in reality, Huang Rong almost had the final say.

Is this a real blow to him?

There was no way, he had to be cautious when dealing with creatures like the Emperor.

"The officials are joking, although there seem to be quite a few Quan Zhenren, in fact they are all incompetent disciples who are obsessed with cultivating the Tao. Those who are really interested in serving the country, who didn't learn the skills and then went to the court."

After all, thinking of a line from Su Qier's movie, Qiu Zhiqing added:

"As for the beggars' gang, whether they are the largest gang in the world, or whether they are the same as us, is up to His Majesty to decide. If everyone lives and works in peace and contentment, how many people can bear it? The hardships of practicing in winter and summer in summer, Eat the wind and drink the dew is chic, but few people must have thought about such a life, right?"

Zhao Yun smiled, but did not answer. Along the way, the two saw some flat places and opened up some farmland. Zhao Yun couldn't help being curious.

Qiu Zhiqing explained to him that Chongyang Palace is relatively poor, so it usually needs Taoists in the middle of the view to participate in labor and obtain food.

Zhao Yun lived in the Chongyang Palace for two days, and got up early with the disciples of the Chongyang Palace. When he was interested, he would do morning classes, evening classes, and martial arts together.

Not to mention, Zhao Yun didn't receive much attention during those years when he was a preparatory prince, but the corresponding prince education was arranged for him, and his predecessor Song Ningzong was obsessed with cultivating Taoism in his later years.

He has some understanding of Taoism scriptures, so it's not a problem to follow Qiu Zhiqing and the others to do the morning class. It's just that the brothers have suffered so much that they can only do the morning and evening classes in the square in front of the main hall.

On the third day, Zhao Yun set off on the ancient road of Shangyu, passed Wuguan and returned to Lin'an. It can be seen that the court of the Song Dynasty still had some doubts about returning the capital to Bianliang.

So a large number of officials still asked to stay in Lin'an and wait for the north to recover!

In fact, I was afraid that the Mongols would fight back again. As far as the situation of these few battles is concerned, they are still not very optimistic. The overall situation is in balance. This is because Mongolia does not have a big sweat.

When they were parting at the gate of the mountain, Zhao Yun invited Qiu Zhiqing to ride with him, seeing that Qiu Zhiqing was rather hesitant, Zhao Yun said amusedly:
"Why, I haven't seen you for a few days, but I will be born like this. After a while... it's worrying..."

Qiu Zhiqing secretly laughed that he was worried about gains and losses, stepped on the stool brought by the little servant, and got on Zhao Yun's jade thrower, Zhao Yun pulled him inside, and said with a smile:

"Meng Puyu said, you once made an appointment with him, and you were waiting for him at the Chongyang Palace in Zhongnan Mountain, but Meng Puyu was involved in military affairs after all, so it happened to be visiting Xijing at this time, so I came to the appointment on his behalf..."

The voice became smaller and smaller, and when Yu Luan's door was closed, the outside world could no longer hear the slightest conversation!
During this time, no one knew what the two of them talked about. Neither Qiu Zhiqing nor Zhao Yun revealed the content of their conversation this time.

All I know is that after Zhao Yun returned to Lin'an, his health improved a lot, and Zhen Dexiu's lover, Song Ci, was promoted to the left servant of the Ministry of Justice.

In the next few months, another major case of treason against the emperor was uncovered. The Criminal Department, Dali Temple, the Six Gates, and the Imperial City Division almost all went out.

When chasing down the rebellious party, many huge greedy crocodiles were also involved by the way. It is rare that Zhao Yun made a serious move. He should ransack the house, behead his head, and exile.

However, this exile has changed from remote Lingnan to Hebei, because the loss of Hebei is too serious!

Zhao Yun used this wave of operations to enrich the treasury again.

Chunyou six years, April!
The imperial decree from Lin'an was sent to Chongyang Palace, Qiu Zhiqing led a group of disciples to receive the decree, and Zhao Yun named Quanzhen Patriarch Wang Chongyang as: Chongyang Quanzhen Kaihua Zhenjun!The seven sons of Quanzhen have their own rewards!

Feng Qiu Zhiqing is Chonghe Tonghua Daoist, and teaches Quanzhen!
In this way, Quanzhen is not equivalent to being officially recognized by the Song court. Zhengyi, headed by the southern and southern Sanshan Talismans, also appeared decades earlier than in history, and was canonized by the Song court.

So far, a new Taoist pattern of Nan Zhengyi and Bei Quanzhen has been formed!

In August, the Mongolian Great Khan, which had been vacant for five years, ushered in its new owner, and the battle for the Mongolian Great Khan came to an end.

The designated heir of the former Great Khan, Borjijin Shiliemen, eventually lost his chance to the throne because of the death of Yelu Chucai, the Mongolian prime minister who supported him.

Naimazhen, the queen of Mongolia, amassed wealth wantonly, and used the wealth obtained by plundering to bribe the Mongolian nobles of various tribes. Therefore, at the Mongolian tribal conference, she pushed her son Borjijin Guiyou to the throne of the Mongolian Great Khan.

The birth of the new Mongolian Khan means that a new strategic situation will be formed between Song and Mongolia, compared to the defensive strategy adopted by the Mongolian queen Naimazhen in order to buy the Mongolian nobles.

The newly appointed Mongolian Khan Guiyou, in order to stabilize his position, will only adopt offensive strategies, and the momentum of offense and defense is easy!
