During the Sui Dynasty, Yangzhou was renamed Shouzhou and Shouchun County was governed.
During the Tang Dynasty, Shouchun County was renamed Shouzhou, and Shouchun County was still governed.
During the Five Dynasties, Zhou Taizu Guo Wei moved Shouzhou to Xiacai, which is its current location.
Indeed, as Yaoshi Guo said, the people of Shouzhou and Shouchun County have broken bones and tendons, and many of them are from the same clan or blood relatives.
Coupled with the close distance, except for the past two years, the two places have never cut off contact.
Not to mention daily trade, in-law relationships are even more common. Although many people are in Shouzhou, their ancestral graves are in Shouchun.
How can such a relationship be isolated just by changing the prefect?
Now that the two countries have finally reached a peace agreement, although everyone is still separated, they can finally see each other.
Unexpectedly, the officials in both places were guarding against them as if they were guarding against thieves... The ones in the south were guarding against the ones in the north, and the ones in the north were guarding against the ones in the south. They were even more guarded than before the peace talks.
Just like when you go to your brother's house, your sister-in-law's elders treat you as a bandit... This kind of feeling has already accumulated a lot of resentment among the people in the two places.
Why, if we change from the Song Dynasty to the Jin Dynasty, our wife is no longer our wife?
From the Kingdom of Jin to the Kingdom of Song, our surname Wang can no longer be surnamed Wang?
People's likes and dislikes are very simple, and some things cannot be changed. Even if you change the sky or the emperor, things that shouldn't change just shouldn't change.
Therefore, this year's Mid-Autumn Festival is obviously more lively than in previous years.
We all know that people are like cattle and sheep, and they are docile, but dogs will jump over the wall when they are anxious.
Although the magistrate of Shouzhou is a Liao man, he is not an unreasonable person. Naturally, he will not touch everyone's bad luck at this time.
Not only did we deliberately relax it today... we have no choice but to relax it. Shouzhou City is so big. If everyone checked it, they wouldn't be able to finish it until August 16th.
Moreover, a poetry meeting was specially organized in the city... After all, although it was a little small, it was still a place where the prime minister had been.
Then the prime minister of the Song Dynasty was also a prime minister.
Lu Yijian, the prime minister during the Renzong Dynasty, and Lu Gongzhu, who co-administered the government with Sima Guang, were both from Shouzhou.
In a place where literary style flourishes, it would be a bit abnormal not to talk about the moon on the Mid-Autumn Festival night.
A small city has its advantages. Take Liu Bang as an example. He only used half a stick of incense to take a tour of Shouzhou City.
If the prefect of Shouzhou knew that the Emperor of the Song Dynasty was in the city now, I don't know what he would think.
Forget about him, except for Pharmacist Guo, several generals in Zhang Jun's army, as well as the people he brought from Lin'an, all knelt in front of him.
Of course Liu Bang knows everyone's good intentions, but it's not like he hasn't fought with swords before. Now that he can enter the city, Shouzhou is already a sure thing.
And think about it, when the people in Shouzhou City were still in great panic, their emperor sent a magic weapon from the sky...
That scene, just thinking about it, already made this two-generation emperor excited.
Naturally, being in the limelight is only secondary.
The most important thing is that this is the first battle of Song Dynasty's Northern Expedition.
Although the possibility of failure is very slim, neither he nor Zhang Jun can completely let go before Shouzhou is completely captured.
And as long as the news that he led troops to capture the city spreads, it will be a great encouragement to the Song Army, the Song people, and even the people in the North.
Apart from the fact that this kind of opportunity is easier to grasp at the beginning, it will not be so easy for the Jin man to do something similar when he is prepared.
Liu Ji thought very clearly about accomplishing the greatest thing at the least cost.
Now everyone has gathered around the high platform built in the city. Xiao Gong, a native of Liao above, is the prefect sent to Shouzhou by the Kingdom of Jin.
This place is quite close to the Song Dynasty and is undoubtedly the front line. As an official here, you must be prepared to run away at all times.
Fortunately, when the news of the peace talks between the two countries came, Xiao Gong had already breathed a sigh of relief, but was relieved by the additional troops sent from Bozhou City.
Coupled with the news that came down from above, which made him very defensive... the people had resentments in their hearts, so why was he, Magistrate Xiao?
I finally got this opportunity today. I said it was to relax the people, but in fact it was to relax myself.
I have said a lot of things about the situation before, and the people below already looked hesitant. Although the sky has not completely darkened, the moon has gradually risen.
Xiao Gong quickly added a few words:
"On this festive occasion, I am happy for you all to be able to reunite here!"
"Unlike me...all my family members are in the North. Even if I want to get together with them, I don't have the chance."
The man seemed about to shed tears as he spoke, which made everyone curse inwardly.
If you are sad, then you will be sad. On this great day, why come to us and cry in mourning!
"Even though I have thousands of words in my heart, I won't say much today..."
You've been talking for half an hour, why don't you say more?
"Then, our Mid-Autumn Poetry Recital in Shouzhou will begin today!"
"I hope that all the talented people and beauties will be more active. If you can produce a famous work, I will be the one to present it to Your Majesty and express your merit for him!"
After saying this, the policeman wearing bright red official uniforms next to him knocked the gong, and the Liao talent finally rolled down.
It can be seen that everyone is in high spirits.
After all, over the years, I have been used to seeing dead people with swords and guns, so there are really not many opportunities for entertainment.
I saw a scholar wearing a green robe running up first, swiping his pen and writing a poem on the paper...
Not to mention the poem, but as the first person to run up, he naturally received a lot of cheers and looks from many girls.
Soon, the second, the third, more and more people ran up.
This poetry meeting is limited to one hour. After one hour, everyone's works will be posted and everyone will judge.
Except for the poet himself, and the police officer responsible for registration, no one will know who the author is, which ensures the fairness of the poetry meeting.
Liu Bang asked himself that he was both civil and military, but after thinking about the moon for a long time, it didn't fit with their poetry style.
I was a little angry and felt defeated, but I also regretted not calling that guy Lu Zai into the city...
Looking at the ugly man on the side... Under normal circumstances, he would not describe a man as beautiful or ugly.
But this Wang Yaksha is the only one who, apart from being a murderous Yaksha, actually looks similar.
"What are you doing, kid?"
Wang De was not interested in these things at all. He almost fell asleep standing up just now.
When the emperor asked about it, he hurriedly whispered:
"Officer...what's the matter? Do you want to take action?"
There were thousands of people sneaking into the city. If it weren't for the fear of arousing suspicion, Zhang Jun would have packed tens of thousands of people in to accompany the emperor.
Liu Bang looked at the moon:
"Wait a minute... I'm having a poetry party here, but you almost fell asleep!"
"On weekdays, I tell Zhang Jun to study more, but the result is good. The people under him are also reckless!"
Wang De felt a little aggrieved: "We have also read it."
"Oh?" Liu Bang rolled his eyes, could it be that people are not judged by their appearance?
"Then you write me a poem about the moon, and I will go out and show off."
Wang De chuckled: "I really can't write poetry."
"Then what the hell are you reading!"
Wang Yaksha thought for a moment and replied seriously:
""Wanyan Wushu fell in love with his sister-in-law but couldn't get the result, so he committed suicide". This story tells us to be calm and not do something irreversible because of impulse."
Seeing the emperor frown slightly, Wang Yaksha thought it was because he didn't think it was enough, so he hurriedly continued:
"The people of Jin worshiped the ship as a god because they had never seen it before." This story tells us that when we encounter something we have never seen before, we should not show timidity, otherwise we will be embarrassed."
"There is also "The people of Jin used fish hooks to catch cattle and sheep", which tells us that we cannot look at different things with the same eyes."
"besides……"
Liu Bang quickly stopped him: "Okay, okay, enough is enough."
Unexpectedly, what the students wrote spread so quickly. When Liu Bang saw people around him staring at Wang De with strange eyes, he knew that his words had been heard.
Pulled his sleeve and led him to the corner.
