"Woooooo!"

The north wind roared, rolling up snowflakes all over the sky and blew on the body, like a knife cutting flesh, causing a faint pain.

However, no matter how cold the wind is, it cannot extinguish the enthusiasm of the people. The people of Bianjing are extremely enthusiastic and celebrate the New Year on the streets.

In the New Year of the Song Dynasty, the official holidays were the same as now, which were three days, the New Year, the main day, and the second day of the lunar month were all holidays, so you could rest. The most lively time of the first lunar month, although it was late at night on the second day of the lunar month, there were still many people on the streets, people coming and going, bustling, and there were no fewer.

"The new year is here. Will the Song Dynasty fight against Liao dogs this year?"

"I will definitely fight! Last year, the Song Dynasty fought so well and killed more than 80,000 Liao dogs. If I don't fight this year, it would be unreasonable."

"This year, the Song Dynasty said that it would kill 100,000 Liao dogs, otherwise, the Song Dynasty would be incompetent!"

During the New Year, we should have celebrated the New Year happily without talking about these military and national affairs. However, the Song Dynasty showed its face in the past year and killed more than 80,000 Liao troops. This is something that the Song Dynasty has never seen since its founding. The people are really excited and happy, so they have to mention it when they open their mouths.

"If the Song Dynasty is going to go on a long journey this year, I will join the army!"

"I want to go too! I don't care even if I tattoo it. As long as I can kill Liao Gou, I will do it!"

"If you can kill a few Liaogou with your own hands, don't even talk about tattooing on your face, you don't care if you tattoo all over your body. Well, it's okay to tattoo it on that thing!"

Young people gathered together and spoke while walking around the streets.

In the Song Dynasty, being a soldier was the most unpromising, with a low social status, and a good man not joining the army was a special phenomenon in the Song Dynasty. Only those who were desperate would join the army. Therefore, the quality of soldiers in the Song Dynasty was quite low.

Especially tattooing is even more unbearable. Many people want to serve the country but don’t want to tattoo it. You know, in the eyes of the ancients, their bodies and hair cannot be damaged by their parents, and it is difficult to make them tattoo it. In order to bring these people into the army, the Song Dynasty specially made a name called "Effective", which is equivalent to the current mercenaries, allowing them to join the army without tattooing. Yue Fei is the origin of utility.

However, the Song Dynasty showed its face last year and killed so many Liao dogs, which inspired the patriotic enthusiasm and national pride of the Song people. They were willing to join the army, and they didn't care even if they were tattooed.

The reason why the Song people were in a state of depression was not that they lacked passion or patriotism, but that the Song Dynasty suffered too many defeats and did not inspire their enthusiasm. The great victory last year completely aroused the patriotism of the people.

"A great victory in Zhuozhou!"

"Zhuozhou is liberated!"

"Kill more than 56,900 Liao dogs!"

Suddenly, a shocking roar sounded. The roar was hoarse and harsh, no different from a broken gong, and it was very unpleasant. However, in the ears of the people, like the Tianyin Fairy Music, they all turned their heads and stared at the direction where the sound came.

"Rumor!" A thunderous sound came, and a group of Song soldiers were seen in front of him, countless people were chasing him, either riding horses, donkeys or running.

Whether he was riding a horse, a donkey, or walking, they were all very happy, their faces blushed with excitement, and they waved their arms and shouted, as if they were fighting this great victory.

The situation this time is quite similar to the last time when the victory was reported. The Song army was ordered to report the victory. Wherever they arrived, the news of the victory would be transmitted, and the people from all over the place would come from the heels. Therefore, the team that reported the victory was growing rapidly like a snowball, and soon became a team. I don’t know how many people were following behind.

The only difference is that the people hesitated to report the victory last time, and were shocked and puzzled, and did not know whether to believe it. After a while of hesitation, they had to believe it.

This time, the people did not hesitate at all and believed it without doubt. Last year's plundering could kill more than 73,000 Liao troops at one time, but this time it only killed more than 56,900, which is more than 10,000 yuan less than the last time. Can there be any fakes?

"Go away! Let's go to Changxing, no, give way to the warriors of the Song Dynasty!" The people on the street shouted at each other.

They were used to calling Changxing, and blurted out, and immediately felt that it was inappropriate, so they changed their words to "The Warrior of the Song Dynasty". Since the founding of the Song Dynasty, it has been rare to get the spontaneous name of the people.

"Give it to the warriors of the Song Dynasty!"

The people woke up and urged each other in unison, looking anxious. Looking at them like that, they were afraid that they would be slow.

In fact, there was no need to remind the people, and they knew what to do. They flashed to the road and threw the most respectful gaze at the soldiers of the Song army who were galloping by, and sent them to pass through.

"The Song Dynasty has won another battle!"

I don’t know which people were so excited that they started yelling first.

"The Song Dynasty has won another battle!"

The word "典" is used very well, and the people agree with it. They cheered and the roars went straight to the sky, shaking the ground trembled.

"Hurry, beat the gong! Beat the drum!"

"Hurry, set off firecrackers!"

The joy of the people is too difficult to suppress, and they all think of ways to expose it. It is the New Year that there are many festive things to prepare. In just a few minutes, the entire Bianjing City was boiling, with gongs and drums and firecrackers shaking the world!

"Long live the Song Dynasty!" The people cheered and rushed towards the palace like a tide.

In Jiying Hall, Song Shenzong sat upright, like a stone statue, without any movement.

Shao Jiu saw it in his eyes, anxious in his heart, and wanted to ask but didn't dare to hesitate. After thinking about it, Shao Jiu gritted his teeth, bent his body into ninety degrees, and asked carefully: "Official family, official family..."

Song Shenzong was still sitting upright, without any movement. If his chest hadn't fluctuated slightly, he would have regarded him as a statue.

"Official family, how did you have this?" Shao Jiu's voice rose slightly, and he asked carefully: "Official family, you have been sitting for several hours and haven't even had dinner."

The careful Shao Jiu discovered that since the beginning of the Great Wall, Song Shenzong had no intention of being in the mind, and even the main dynasty meeting was absent-minded. Empress Dowager Cao asked Song Taizong to tell the story, but Song Shenzong stuttered, as if he could not say it at all.

There is nothing special about this kind of lecture, just say a festive word that makes everyone like it. Song Shenzong has said it many times, but he has never been like this time, and he was stuttering and shocked the whole court.

What is even more unexpected is that Song Shenzong not only stuttered in his speech, but he couldn't help looking at the north, as if something big was going to happen in the north, which made the ministers speculate.

In addition to Song Shenzong, there is another person who is so absent-minded, and this person is Wang Anshi.

At this time, Wang Anshi was sitting at the lower head of Song Shenzong, no difference from the wood carvings, and there was no movement.

These two kings and ministers have been so abnormal these days. They do not handle state affairs and do not want to participate in various meetings. They are just dazed and stupid, looking at the north whenever they have time, which makes people confused.

"Grandpa Wang! Grandpa Wang!" Seeing that Song Shenzong did not respond, Shao Jiu had to shout at Wang Anshi.

"Uh! Do you call me? What's the matter?" Wang Anshi asked very mechanically, and returned to the appearance of a living dead man, and there was no movement.

Shao Jiu saw it and wanted to slap Wang Anshi in the face to wake him up. Shao Jiu looked at the two stone statues and shook his head. He left the house and called a eunuch and muttered a few words in the eunuch's ear.

"Can this work?" The eunuch was in amazement.

"How can it not be done? The official family has been restless these days, and they don't eat or drink. If this continues, it will be possible? We can't persuade the official family, so we can only ask the Empress Dowager to come forward." Shao Jiu was very helpless. He knew that the relationship between Empress Dowager Cao and Song Shenzong was extremely complicated. If it were not for the last resort, he would never have done this.

"Okay! The officials are the same, don't eat or drink!" The eunuch muttered: "Even if there is something big, you have to eat. Only when you have enough food and drink enough can you have the strength to hold the sky!"

Listening to the eunuch's muttering, Shao Jiu shook his head helplessly. The eunuch made sense, but he couldn't persuade him and had to wait for Mr. Cao to deal with it later.

Not long after, the footsteps sounded, and Empress Cao, Empress Gao, and Empress Xiang came together. Empress Cao walked in her head, Empress Gao and Empress Xiang supported her from left to right, and the three of them looked anxious.

Shao Jiu was about to greet him, and Empress Dowager Cao waved his hand to stop him from attending him. Empress Dowager Cao stood still and looked at the appearance of Song Shenzong and Wang Anshi for a while. She couldn't help but be surprised and asked, "Where are these monarchs and ministers who are foolish? Sitting here is like a wooden carving. How can you see the Buddha statues in Xiangguo Temple?"

This metaphor is too vivid, Shao Jiuda agrees and is busy explaining the situation in detail.

"Official family!" Empress Dowager Gao was most anxious. As her mother, she felt most distressed about Song Shenzong.

Queen Xiang was also anxious, but Empress Dowager Cao waved her hand to stop the two of them from speaking. She looked at them carefully for a while and said, "The complexion is pretty good, it's not a big deal. This should be because she doesn't belong to her mind and is absent-minded. She is still able to cure her old body."

"Official family!" Empress Dowager Cao shouted in a deep voice, very powerful.

If Empress Dowager Cao was drunk in normal times, Song Shenzong would definitely be shocked. Today was abnormal. Song Shenzong just turned his eyes and there was no movement.

"Xu'er!" Empress Dowager Cao shouted again, and this time the scream was much louder.

Song Shenzong still didn't move. Empress Dowager Cao's brows frowned even tighter, and she was secretly wondering, where did Song Shenzong sing? If she had been shouting like this in the past, Song Shenzong would have been running to her and her ex-grandmother and screaming in a short while.

"Xun'er, why did you give birth to you? Xun'er, if you have something to do, tell your mother." Empress Dowager Gao was so anxious that she burst into tears, and she was almost out of the way.

"Don't talk nonsense! Xu'er won't be in trouble!" Empress Dowager Cao shouted in a deep voice, and Empress Dowager Gao didn't dare to guess anymore.

"Shao Jiu, do you think the official family has been looking at the north these days?" Empress Dowager Cao looked at Shao Jiu.

"Yes, the Empress Dowager!" Shao Jiu hurriedly affirmed.

"North? North? What big thing can happen in the north? Isn't it just Yelu Hongji is going to fight? Well, it seems that I have to cheat once!" Empress Dowager Cao pondered: "Official family, a great victory in the north!"

"A great victory in the north!" Song Shenzong and Wang Anshi jumped up like a robot equipped with springs.

"Where is the military newspaper? Where is the military newspaper? Let me see it quickly! Has Zhuozhou been captured?" Song Shenzong's eyes shone brightly, like a sharp sword.

"Official family, I'm lying to you." Empress Dowager Cao hadn't reacted yet. Song Shenzong's words were too jumpy.

"Zhuozhou is victorious! Zhuozhou is restored! More than 56,900 Liao dogs were killed!" At this moment, a shocking roar came into the palace.

"Haha! Zhuozhou's victory!" Song Shenzong and Wang Anshi laughed. The king and his ministers did not care about etiquette, hugged each other and beat each other.
