It is adjacent to Qinglong Mountain in the east, Ziyun Mountain in the south, Wuhu Ridge in the west, and Wulian Mountain in the north, forming a Feng Shui landscape of Qinglong on the left, White Tiger on the right, Suzaku in the front, and Xuanwu in the back. The clear stream of Darenlong Mountain winds westward along the imperial mausoleum. Winding by. With mountains and rivers blending together and trees towering into the sky, it is indeed a rare Feng Shui treasure land.

This is where the tombs of emperors and queens of the Southern Song Dynasty are located.

The mausoleums of the four emperors of the Song Dynasty, namely Huizong of Song Dynasty, Gaozong of Song Dynasty, Xiaozong of Song Dynasty and Guangzong of Song Dynasty, including Zhezong Houling, Huizong Houling, Gaozong Houling, Xiaozong Houling and Guangzong Houling, etc., are large in scale and solemn, but the mausoleums are It's not called a mausoleum, but "Zan Palace".

Since the Song Dynasty moved south, the tombs of emperors and queens have been called "Zan Palace". It means that this is a temporary temporary mausoleum. After the king's army recovers the Central Plains, it will be buried in Yiluo. It will be hidden in the same place as the tombs of the ancestors of Zhao and Song dynasties, and the fallen leaves will return to their roots.

Historically, after the fall of the Southern Song Dynasty, the imperial mausoleums of the Southern Song Dynasty were robbed and completely destroyed by Yang Liazhenjia, the president of the Jiangnan Buddhist capital appointed by the Yuan Dynasty. The head of Song Lizong Zhao Yun was cut off and made into a drinking vessel, while his torso was burned.

I don’t know if such a tragedy can be avoided in the era we live in?

The sun shines in the cemetery, and the snow has long since disappeared. The pines and cypresses are lush and green, showing extremely powerful vitality.

The sacrifices were placed, the incense was burned, the candles were lit, and the smoke curled up. Even though it was just an ordinary sacrifice, it was still full of etiquette.

Even for a weakling like Zhao Gou who was reviled and criticized by future generations, he still had to show respect and kowtow in front of his mausoleum in a decent manner.

"The ancestors are on top, and the unworthy descendant Zhao Hong swore in front of the ancestor's mausoleum that he will lead the king's army to regain the Central Plains in the future, and he will definitely move the ancestors' mausoleum back to Xijing and bury them in Yiluo!"

I don't know if what he said was true or intentional, but Zhao Hong's expression was particularly solemn.

At this time, he felt that he looked a bit like a descendant of the Zhao family.

In fact, speaking of it, he is from the lineage of Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin, and Zhao Gou is from the lineage of Song Taizong Zhao Guangyi. There are so many generations between the two sides, and the blood relationship is only 2 to the 16-18th power. There is no relationship anymore.

Zhao Hong knelt in front of him, and a group of officials and guards knelt in front of him. After everyone finished worshiping in the cemetery, they all stood up with solemn expressions.

"Your Highness, can you really recover the Central Plains and return to your old place?"

Everyone walked down the mountain, Wang Gang didn't hesitate and asked softly.

He heard clearly Zhao Hong's "heroic words" when he paid homage just now.

"Why not? Remove the word "?" from you!"

Zhao Hong smiled loudly, his pride rising to the sky.

"Ms. Wang, it seems that you are only forty years old. Let's make a ten-year appointment. Ten years from now, we will meet in Bianjing, have a drink together, and recall today's events!"

Or die, and your ambitions will disappear. Either live, have a good fight, be happy with your grudges, and live up to your expectations in this human world.

"Your Highness, if this day really comes to pass, I will have no regrets in this life!"

Wang Gang looked at Zhao Hong in shock and confusion.

This Zhao Hong couldn't be joking.

The three previous kings, plus the current emperor, and the four kings of the Song Dynasty, failed to restore the Central Plains for a hundred years. How could he be a little prince?

"Your Highness, for the ten-year agreement, you might as well add an official!"

The Kuaiji Magistrate County Board of Directors was very interested and lost no time in joining in.

"Okay! Mr. Dong, I'll count you in the ten-year agreement!"

Zhao Hong laughed loudly. When he arrived at the tying place, he untied the reins and climbed onto the horse.

"Xiangong Wang, Xianggong Dong, we're done with the ironworks! Farewell!"

Empty talk will harm the country, but hard work will rejuvenate the country. If you want to achieve success, you must start from the feet, step by step.

Xue Tan rode up to catch up, looking at the back of Zhao Hong galloping in front of him, he was shocked and couldn't calm down.

After ten years of sharpening a sword, the frost blade has never been tested. Today I am showing you to you, who has any injustice?

It is not yet known whether he can become emperor. Is it too hasty to talk about a ten-year agreement now?

However, following Zhao Hong always made his blood boil and made his young heart beat wildly.

"The rolling waters of the Yangtze River pass eastward, and the waves wash away the heroes. Right and wrong, success and failure are all gone, but the green mountains are still there, and the sunsets are red several times!"

The horse galloped freely, Zhao Hong was in high spirits and sang loudly on the horse.

Zhao Hong from behind sang and roared impassionedly, causing the guards behind him to roar in agreement.

"White-haired fishermen and woodcutters on the river bank are used to looking at the autumn moon and the spring breeze. We are happy to meet each other over a pot of turbid wine. Many things in ancient and modern times can be laughed at and talked about!"

"It's all paid...it's a joke!"

The crowd all prolonged their voices together, howling like ghosts and wolves, and laughing.

Xue Tan felt envious and followed closely.

What a group of dandies who enjoy grudges and grieve generously!

Returning to Zheng's Ironworks, he carefully instructed the craftsmen on the kiln modifications and additions. Before he could take a sip of water, he was alerted by the Imperial Army coming from Lin'an City.

"Your Highness, the government has a decree for you to come to the court to discuss government affairs as soon as possible!"

Zhao Hong was stunned, and the warship carrying the Jin envoy on the Zhejiang East Canal flashed in his mind.

Could it be that the Jin people sent envoys here for political affairs?

"Your Highness, it seems that the officials don't care about this iron smelting matter at all."

Li Tang said it with a dark face.

"Maybe the officials don't want His Highness to take this risk. The officials don't care at all whether the iron smelting is successful or not."

Xu Sheng spoke slowly, as if he had something to say.

"Your Highness, it is a good thing that the officials have called you into the court. At least it shows that the officials care about your highness."

Xue Tan whispered to the side, which made Zhao Hong's heart move.

The word "quick", just as Xue Tan said, he already has some weight in Zhao Kuo's heart.

It seems that, more or less, I have gained something.

"Xu Sheng and Hu Datou are staying! The others will return to Lin'an with me!"

Zhao Hong made a decision instantly.

Lin'an City, Shi's Mansion, in the study at dusk.

"Historical Prime Minister, Wanyan Agudai, the envoy of the Jin people, is outside the house asking for an audience."

Outside the study, a servant reported softly.

"The golden messenger?"

Behind the desk, Shi Miyuan, who was looking at the calligraphy on the desk, frowned slightly and raised his head.

"Weizhai, from what you have seen, why did Jin Envoy ask to see you?"

The Jin envoy asked to see him, but he wanted to sign an alliance under the city?

Shi Miyuan asked a question, and his staff Yu Tianci said respectfully in front of the desk.

"Historian Prime Minister, the Jin Emperor Wanyan Shouxu has just ascended the throne. He is putting an end to disputes externally and cultivating good governance internally. The Jin envoy should come here with the intention of testing first."

Emperor Wanyan Shouxu of the Jin Dynasty succeeded to the throne and changed the Yuan Dynasty to uprightness. He relieved diplomatic worries and appointed generals with meritorious service in the fight against Mongolia to divide the military power in domestic affairs. Wanyan Saibu of the clan was appointed as Pingzhang political affairs, Chizhan Hexi was appointed as deputy envoy to the privy council, responsible for the national military affairs; Wanyan Heda, the commander of Yan'an, was appointed as counselor of political affairs; Zhang Xingxin, who advocated the strategy of resisting Meng Shan, was awarded the post of Minister Zuo Cheng.

Wanyan Shouxu worked hard and everything he did was to deal with the powerful Mongolian cavalry.

"Tell the envoy Jin that I'm not feeling well. If anything happens, let's talk about it at the meeting."

Shi Miyuan thought for a moment and then spoke decisively.

"Xiang Xiang, if you refuse like this, will the Jin people become angry and start another war?"

Xue Ji, who was sitting on the chair next to him, said with a sad face:

"This moment, that moment. In the past, the Jin people were powerful, but now they are only in Shaanxi and Henan. They are weak and have nothing to fear."

Shi Miyuan shook his head and said, Yu Tianci waved his hand gently, and the servant at the door knew it well and disappeared immediately.

"Mr. Hu, I heard that Zhao Hong went to Kuaiji Mountain in Shaoxing Prefecture. Do you know what happened?"

Shi Miyuan's gaze turned to Hu Ju, Minister of the Ministry of Industry.

"Going back to the Prime Minister, I heard that they were looking for an iron furnace. For this, Zhao Hong also scolded Du Fan and several officials. When Zhao Hong went to Shaoxing Mansion, it was Xue Tan, Xue Gong's grandson, and Supervisor Xue volunteered. Lead the way."

"Xiang Shi, my unscrupulous grandson has just joined the officialdom and doesn't understand the rules. I will discipline him well when he returns home so that he doesn't have to meddle in his own business!"

Xue Ji quickly stood up and apologized to Shi Miyuansu.

"Xue Gong, what are you doing? Zhao Hong was promoted by the military. As his subordinate, Xue Tan must disobey orders?"

Shi Miyuan waved his hand and motioned for Xue Ji to sit down.

"Mr. Hu, the Ministry of Industry should not restrain Zhao Hong, a mad dog, to prevent him from causing trouble in the court and embarrassing himself. He wants people and things, so just do your best to cooperate. I would like to see what he can come up with?"

When Zhao Hong was mentioned, Shi Miyuan was extremely angry.

Don't expose someone's fault, don't expose someone's shortcomings, don't slap someone in the face! This bastard openly accuses him of wielding power in court, which is both intolerable and intolerable.

"Don't worry, Mr. Shi, I know what to do."

Hu Ju said with an apologetic smile on his face.

Zhao Hong, a stupid young man, didn't even look down on Shi Miyuan. If he provoked him, wouldn't he be asking for trouble?

"You two, what do you think of this calligraphy painting?"

Shi Miyuan smiled slightly, picked up the paper on the table, and handed it to Hu Ju and Xue Ji.

"Isn't this handwriting from high school?"

Xue Ji took a few glances and shouted in surprise.

"Gaozong has been copying for decades. He is good at Zhen, Xing, and cursive calligraphy. God allows it to do everything he can to create wonderful things. Horizontal, slanted, straight, whatever he wants, he is the best among all the people in the sea, and no one can match it!"

Hu Ju also nodded in admiration.

This "Book of Filial Piety" written by Zhao Gou is worth more than a thousand gold, but unexpectedly it is in Shi Miyuan's house.

Shi Miyuan's wealth is really enviable!

"Historian Prime Minister, can you lend me this calligraphy treasure for a few days to enjoy?"

Hu Ju said with a smile, hoping that Shi Miyuan would show mercy and reward him with this thing.

"Mr. Hu, this thing doesn't work, I can use it."

Shi Miyuan rejected Hu Ju without hesitation.

Hu Ju was helpless and suspicious. He didn't know what the use of a handwritten copy of the Classic of Filial Piety was.

"You two, it's getting late, go back and rest. There is no need to offend the Jin people when you go to court tomorrow, but there is no need to be polite to the Jin people."

Shi Miyuan frowned. If he wasn't afraid that the Jin people would go south and seek perfection through humiliation, how could he be the target of so many people?

"Shi Xiang, I'll take my leave!"

Hu Ju and Xue Ji took their leave, leaving Shi Miyuan and Yu Tianci alone in the study.

"Weizhai, can you personally go to Prince Yi's Mansion and hand this thing over to Zheng Xuelu. He knows how to do it."

Shi Miyuan rolled up Zhao Gou's handwriting, put it in the box, and handed it to Yu Tianci at the table.

"Yes, Shi Xiang."

Yu Tianci knew it well, took the long box, and said hesitantly:

"Historian Prime Minister, Xu Ji came to report that Wu Nian went to the Jiguo Duke's Mansion and broke up with Zhao Hong on bad terms. It seemed that they wanted to separate."

"Is Wu Nian's daughter back?"

Shi Miyuan was refreshed, and the wrinkles on his face bloomed.

"The Wu family is still in Jinling, fighting fiercely with a dude. However, she should come back for her mother Wu Yang's birthday."

Yu Tianci said thoughtfully.

"This is the best news I've heard in a while!"

Shi Miyuan's eyes lit up and he spoke out.

Wu Nian's daughter Wu, Zhao Hong's first wife, is also the grand-niece of Queen Yang Guizhi. If Wu and Zhao Hong break up, the relationship between Zhao Hong and Yang Guizhi will never be reconciled.

As long as Zhao Hong and Yang Guizhi are at odds, with Yang Guizhi's strength and his control of the court, the victory will completely fall to his side.

This is indeed great news for Shi Miyuan.
