021. Psychic sea snake

After Zhang Shijie's crying gradually stopped, Li Yuanshui shouted: "If you have something to do, you will report..."

Looking at the ministers below who were wiping tears secretly, he admired the emperor very much. Yesterday, two days of attending court today, it caused the court officials to cry. This kind of ability made him feel beyond the reach of the world.

No one spoke to the ministers.

Benzhou Island is originally a small place and lacks connection with the outside world. How can there be any major news in this place?

In the current Southern Song Dynasty, most of the troops and horses were in their own formations, and the emperor Zhao Dongting actually had no much control over the subordinates.

Seeing that they didn't say anything, Zhao Dongting said, "Since you all have nothing to do and want to report, I will talk about two things."

All the ministers looked at him.

Zhao Dongting said: "From now on, Yang Yidong, the official in charge of the military guards, will be promoted to the general of the left and right guards."

The ministers below were confused, but no one said anything. Although the position of the General of the Right Guards was high, they certainly did not have much real power at the moment. Yang Yidong was promoted to this, and would not have any impact on the situation in the court, and they did not have much interest in them. The young emperor has been decisive and courageous for a while, so they naturally would not cause any trouble to the emperor for this matter.

Yang Yidong walked out of the line and fell to the ground, "I thank you, the emperor!"

Zhao Dongting asked him to calm down and continued: "In addition, Yue Peng, the former instructor of the Guards and Infantry, was promoted to the supervisor of the Guards and Infantry Affairs."

The ministers felt a little anxious and immediately understood in their hearts that this was the little emperor’s true intention.

They couldn't help but think that Yue Peng was really favored by the emperor, and many people's thoughts were quietly alive.

Su Liuyi's face was not very good-looking.

He had finally removed Yue Peng's position as deputy official, but now he has been promoted to official business again. In this way, will his nephew be suppressed by Yue Peng?

Su Quandang had just offended Yue Peng, but he still didn't know why he was dealt with by Yue Peng.

Thinking of this, Su Liuyi could only step forward and say, "Your Majesty, I have something to do."

Zhao Dongting expected that he would stand out, but was not surprised and said indifferently: "Your dear."

Su Liuyidao: "My nephew Su Quandang wants to be transferred to the front office of the Palace, so please let the emperor agree."

He knew that Zhao Dongting was in power and it was almost impossible to overthrow Yue Peng, so he simply handed over the military power of the guards and infantry. In the future, Su Quandang went to the front office of the palace to serve, at least not be bullied by Yue Peng.

Zhao Dongting didn't want to offend Su Liuyi, the humeral minister, too harshly, so he said, "I'm sure."

If Su Quandang was forced to keep Su Quandang in the guards and infantry, Su Liuyi would inevitably feel dissatisfied. It is really not worth it for a mere Su Quandang.

Su Liuyi also knew in his heart that Zhao Dongting would definitely be merciful. After thanking him, he walked back to the line calmly.

The matter between Yang Yidong and Yue Peng has been settled.

Zhao Dongting opened his mouth and was about to ask about the current distribution of the Yuan army and the Southern Song army, but suddenly a small eunuch ran in panic outside the hall.

He fell to his knees and shouted, "Emperor, Master, something happened!"

Zhao Dongting recognized that this was the little eunuch who cleaned his bedroom, and he didn't care about scolding him regardless of the occasion, and just asked, "What's the matter?"

The little eunuch seemed to be scared and said, "Then, that Huanglong... has arrived in your bedroom, the emperor."

Now the ministers and Zhao Dongting were both relieved in an instant.

Zhao Dongting said astonished: "Huanglong has arrived at my bedroom?"

The little eunuch nodded, "Yes, I'm entrenched on your bed, the emperor, and I almost scared my servant."

Zhao Dongting couldn't speak.

Why did the sea snake suddenly run to his bed?

This is not necessarily a coincidence?

Even though he traveled from modern times to ancient times, he couldn't figure out the strangeness. If you say coincidence, then this would be too coincidental.

At this moment, even Zhao Dongting couldn't help but murmur, "Is that sea snake really spiritual?"

It was really hard for him to imagine how such a thick sea snake slipped to his bedroom without knowing it, and chose his bedroom.

Even Zhao Dongting, who used to not believe in ghosts and gods, is still a little shaken now, thinking that he was being passed over, would he really be a chosen person?

At this time, Chen Wenlong, the deputy governor in the hall, suddenly stepped forward and said happily: "Emperor, Huang Long enters the house, this is a good omen!"

Immediately afterwards, ministers agreed, saying that this was a great auspiciousness.

Zhao Dongting just couldn't curse people, otherwise he would have to scold these ministers.

Even though the golden sea snake was really a psychic beast, it ran to its bed, Zhao Dongting was afraid that it would swallow it in one bite!

After a silent formation, Zhao Dongting said, "Since that's the case, let's go and have a look first."

He made up his mind that if the sea snake was aggressive, he would have to chop it up no matter what. No matter how auspicious beasts were, no matter how exciting it was, they were far less important than his own life.

The ministers had long wanted to go and see it, so they hurriedly followed Zhao Dongting and ran out. Only Zhang Shijie was left lying on the dragon couch with helpless face.

However, when they arrived at Zhao Dongting's bedroom, they only heard the guards' report that the yellow dragon had already run away again.

Zhao Dongting whispered, "Why don't you stop me?"

Several guards looked at each other, and the commander said with a bitter face: "Master, we are afraid of hurting auspicious beasts, so we dare not stop them..."

He said he was afraid of hurting auspicious beasts, but of course he did not dare to stop him, for fear that the sea snake would show its power.

Zhao Dongting was helpless and had to give up and take his ministers back to the Political Affairs Hall.

In the Political Affairs Hall, he finally learned from Zhang Shijie and others that the current situation in the Southern Song Dynasty was even worse than he thought.

Only a few territories in the Southern Song Dynasty, including Hunan, Guangxi, Guangdong, Fujian, Hainan, etc. were not completely occupied by the Yuan army, and the regular army was destroyed. Except for the Hunan Commander Zhang Lieliang, Wen Tianxiang and others, most of the rest of the places were rebels resisting the Yuan army.

Even though Zhao Dongting was full of confidence, he was still a little upset now.

Compared with the Yuan Dynasty, the current Southern Song Dynasty is almost the difference between ants and elephants, with its military strength, financial resources and territory.

Zhao Dongting knew in his heart that if he wanted to continue to deal with the Yuan army, he could only rely on the power of the rebel army.

But now it is located in Guizhou Island, so it is difficult to contact those rebels. Moreover, whether those rebels want to resist the Yuan army or become kings is still unknown.

Therefore, in the Political Consultative Hall, Zhao Dongting did not immediately express any opinions.

After announcing the dispersion of the court, he went to the weapons workshop again.

What he can rely on most now is the modern knowledge in his head.

At night, afraid that the sea snake would come again, Zhao Dongting specially pulled out ten people from the guards and infantry and arranged for them to guard outside his door.

The eunuch Li Yuanxiu was a great master, so he was naturally left in the bedroom by Zhao Dongting.

If he was not here, no matter how many guards there were, Zhao Dongting would be uneasy.

Unexpectedly, the sea snake actually arrived outside Zhao Dongting's bedroom again at night.

It was around eleven o'clock, and Zhao Dongting had already fallen asleep. Li Yuanxiu drove a small bed under his bed and lay down. Suddenly, a guard outside shouted, "Huanglong is here! Huanglong is here!"

Zhao Dongting and Li Yuanxiu both stared openly and then ran out.

When he arrived at the door, Li Yuanxiu stopped Zhao Dongting behind him.

The sea snake probably climbed up from the cliff while the night was dark, and it was not discovered. At this time, it had confronted the guards in Zhao Dongting's courtyard. Its snake head was raised high, its tail was shaking. More than a dozen guards drew their swords around it, but no one dared to take action.

What's strange is that this sea snake has no intention of attacking.

Zhao Dongting felt it was extremely strange and couldn't help but feel a little happy for this spiritual guy.

But at this time, the sea snake suddenly rushed out of the courtyard.

Seeing that it was not hurtful, Zhao Dongting shouted: "Close the door quickly, don't hurt it!"

The two guards guarding the door closed the door and then quickly opened it.

A sea snake slammed into the wooden door, and actually knocked all the two wooden doors out, and then rushed outside the yard.

Zhao Dongting and others rushed to chase after him. When they arrived at the gate of the courtyard, they saw that it was dark outside, but they could not even see the shadow of the sea snake.

There are still a few oil lamps in the courtyard, but there are not outside the courtyard.

Zhao Dongting felt a pity in his heart. He knew that the sea snake was so dark that he could not find it, so he had to go back to the room to sleep.

The night sea snake did not come again.

During the day, Zhao Dongting always went to court as usual, and then he rushed to the weapon workshop.

In the past few days, the sea snake actually came every night, but never hurt anyone, just left later.
