Chapter 69 Glory of the lintel

Since the alliance of Chanzhou, the emperor visited the north again, and the world was shocked. Although the Ming Dynasty emphasized that the Khitan was a brotherly country and the vows between the two countries continued to be valid, the subjects of the world could not help but think about the land of Youyan. Since the establishment of the Song Dynasty, he has made the recovery of the country one of the important goals of the country. Although it failed many times, this goal has long been engraved into the hearts of the people of the world.

Wherever the edict went, many people spontaneously went to temples in various places to burn incense and pray for peace. They were in a conflicted mood. On the one hand, they wanted to restore Youyan and unify the world, and were proud. On the other hand, they still had no confidence in the Song army, and they were worried that the war would be defeated again by the Khitan and accepted the conditions for humiliation.

Destroying Dangxiang and defeating the Khitan once in Fengzhou is not enough to establish the belief of victory across the country. The imperial army has left the ordinary people for too long, and the people of the world are concerned about the results of the front line, but may not be concerned about the fate of this army. This sense of alienation will take time before it will slowly disappear.

The northern region where family members joined the army was more concerned about the emperor's northern tour, and the more they went south, the more they did not take it seriously. When they arrived at Guangxi, the extreme border area, many local people joined the army for many years, and there were special organization Sugar Services, and there were suddenly more people who cared about it. They spontaneously went to the temple to incense and pray for peace for the emperor's northern tour.

It was at this time that Lin Ye and Cen Dalang's family received a letter from their son from the capital. Tieqiao and Dagui failed the palace examination again, and they joined Zhongzuosi. The academic atmosphere of Yongliang Road was not enough to support their Jinshi. The previous few Jinshi were immigrants from Fujian Road. Among the local candidates, Tieqiao and Dagui were able to pass the provincial examination, which was already outstanding enough.

People in the extreme border area did not know what Chungzosi did. In his letter, his son just said that he had a future, but he couldn't explain clearly. It was not until the local Magistrate Yu brought his subordinates to congratulate him that Lin Ye and Cen Dagui were convinced that this was a good thing. Join the army, at least on Yongliang Road, the army has a high status and a good reputation among the people.

After the whole family moved to Yongzhou, Li Erlang and his wife gave birth to another child. Qiao Niang married into a forestry family and had already given birth to a child. Tiehammer joined the capital. Qiao Niang had to take care of the forestry couple and raise children at the same time. Although Li Erlang could not help but occasionally go to places that others could not see and enjoy the fun of playing with others, it was much more restrained and not a big harm. He helped the Lin family with Li Ersan and lived a day by day.

Immigration is most likely to unite. With the Sugar Service coming to Yongliang Road, these Fujianese people are even more popular than locals and are somewhat overwhelming. Since Xu Ping was there, he insisted on mixing locals and immigrants in Sugar Service, paying attention to resolving conflicts between locals and tourists. Over the past decade, there have been fewer and fewer conflicts between locals and tourists, and more exchanges and integration have begun to form new customs and cultures.

The social situation of Yongliang Road interweaving through Fujian Road immigration and local natives was different from other parts of the Song Dynasty. With the rapid development of the economy, the loose social environment, and the exchange and integration of local tourists, the people here have a strong centripetal force towards the court. Although they are thousands of miles away from the capital, their recognition of the Song Dynasty is no less than that of the capital of Kaifeng Prefecture.

Yu County Magistrate sent ten coins of money on behalf of the court, which was the reward of the court to the people who entered Zhongzuosi. He also sent ten kilograms of meat, a pair of chickens, two carp, and two jars of wine. This was the local government's money to persuade the people. There were only two places in the world that did this to those who entered Zhongzuosi, one was Yongliang Road, and the other was the Sichuan and Shu area. The three border roads in the north, which had the most military participation, the imperial guards had not yet won the trust of the people. Some people entered Zhongzuosi, and their families only thought they were joining the army and eating imperial grain, while local people only thought they were

Another big-headed soldier was released in the hometown, and the local governments could not persuade him. The court sent money and supplies, but the little benefits given by the government were just a decoration. If the army wanted to establish a position among the people, it would not be bought with money. Only they fought bloody on the front line, so that the people in the rear could truly feel that the army was guarding their homes in the distance, and with the sense of honor and favor, everything would come naturally. Without this social foundation, the people who received the meat and money were only taken as picking up, and they would not have a centripetal force on the regime.

Forestry recruited neighbors to his home, cooked the meat and fish sent by Yu County Magistrate, and prepared some fresh vegetables and asked everyone to drink a glass of wine. The magistrate came to congratulate him, which was enough to show that his son was a glorious thing to join Zhongzuosi, and the neighbors were honored. Everyone brought wine or vegetables, and some brought wild game from the mountains and happily went to the forestry home to have a banquet.

Yu Magistrate Enyin was an official, a passerby from Hebei, and never saw such a situation in his hometown. On a whim, he asked himself to follow him in close proximity, whispered a few instructions, and asked him to go back to the county government and go back quickly.

The meat and vegetables were all on the way, and the villagers clamored to ask the magistrate to say a few words, and talked about the future of the iron hammer, which made the villagers happy for him. Everyone came here from Fujian Road, and it was not easy to produce characters, and they were extremely excited.

Magistrate Yu stood up and happened to see his entourage carrying two big men a jar of wine and said, "Let's wait, this jar of wine has a very good origin. The villagers are full of them, and they will talk about it after drinking it."

Several young men stood up and smiled and poured the wine carried from the county government to everyone.

As soon as the jar was opened, the fragrance of wine spread out, and everyone cheered: "I haven't seen such a good wine for many years!"

Yu Magistrate Yu picked up the bowl and drank the wine with everyone. He put down the bowl and said, "This jar of wine is not owned by the local government, but was given to the local government at the beginning of the year. He has always been hidden in the yamen. We, the officials, dare not drink a drop of it. It is not only because of the wealthy and noble figures with status, dare to open the jar and drink with the guests. After drinking this wine, even the Shangguan of the Supervisor and Supervisor inspected us, he must respectfully and not be negligent. Today's affairs are extraordinary. The Lin family Dalang is the first person in the local area to gain a future based on his ability, so he took this wine and drank it with everyone."

A bold man shouted: "Isn't Mr. Zhaowen the Lord Xu Tong! After ten years of separation, the Lord Tong and the wine are delivered!"

Yu Magistrate nodded: "Yes, the magistrate left Yongzhou and is now a country. The places built by our husbands back then have local products to the capital every year. Gifts are not expensive, but just a thought, to show that the local elders do not forget the magistrate's kindness. Every year, the husband also returns with gifts. The wine is the main thing, and it is brewed by the husband's home, which is very precious."

From Xu Ping leaving Yongzhou, this is the annual repertoire program. There are several prefectures and counties in this area, such as Taiping Prefecture, Liangzhou and Ruhe County, where Xu Ping brought gifts to his home every year. Xu Ping did not refuse, and he also had gifts back, which was about the same value as local products. It was just a kind of emotion, and Xu Ping did not try to send them to the capital.

As Xu Ping rose step by step, his gifts returned to the local area became more and more expensive. Since the past few years, the wine from the Xu family from the capital has become a precious thing. In recent years, prefectures and counties have been specially used to treat distinguished guests. Not to mention the officials who came, even the little kings and princes in Jiaozhi, Champa, and even Dali and the surrounding areas were proud to be able to drink this kind of wine.

Yongliang Road was where Xu Ping first became an official, and it was also the first time he changed the world. He had a special feeling. The local people were the same, and they always remembered the young judge who was less than 200 million miles away.
