~~ Provided by you] Zhao Xingde led his troops to the north, and carried pigeon cages with the army. Every day, military letters were sent back to the Prime Minister's Mansion to inform the vanguard where they were advanced_& In order to boost the morale of the military and civilians, Chen Dong read it, he ordered it to be published on the mansion report, so that the entire Southeast prefectures and counties knew the progress of the Northern Expedition. On the third day when Zhao Xingde sent troops, Cao Di also sent troops to cross the river. Immediately afterwards, Han Shizhong's troops also took the Northern Expedition as a call, and advanced along the Han River and land, and went to the Wujie. Yue Fei met for a while. The people in the southeast were greatly boosted. From prefectures and counties to the townships and villages to teahouses and restaurants, they were discussing the matter of the Northern Expedition. The county and county recruited Ding Zhuang, and the money and grains, and so on. Correspondingly, it was easier to deal with some things in order to support the money and grain of various armies, as well as to fill the musket camps in the rear, Ezhou Prime Minister's Mansion, and various prefectures and counties were busy.

Wu Zilong, the Minister of Rites, came to visit. Chen Dong hurriedly stood up to greet him. Over the past few days, the Ministry of Rites and the county Xuezhou School have vigorously encouraged the local tyrants donated grain and money to help the Prime Minister's Office, and Wu Zilong frowned and came in. He only bowed to see Chen Dong, and then sat on his own opposite the large goiter stone case, swept across the various documents piled up on the case, sighed, but did not speak.

Seeing this, Chen Dong said strangely, "Brother Wu, why do you want to speak but stop?"

Wu Zilong sighed and shook his head and said, "Yuanzhi killed hundreds of monks for some reason. If the Ministry of Rites had not been forced to suppress this matter, the nearby prefectures and county schools would have been in trouble for a long time. However, Yuanzhi's great souvenirs abducted hundreds of monks. Without the three departments' trial, they were all killed in front of the Liao army. The bodies were abandoned in the wilderness and fed dogs. This area has been worshipping Buddhism since the Southern Dynasties, and many of the great clans have become monks. The temple monks and local gentry were together. When the case was revealed, many of our scholars had also avoided the temple." He hesitated for a moment and said, "I should have avoided suspicion in this matter, but I am fair to say that Yuanzhi will not give an explanation, but I am afraid that it will greatly damage the reputation of the court."

"Oh?" Chen Dong's expression moved slightly, "Why should Brother Wu avoid suspicion?"

"I have a cousin from afar, and the name of the Dharma is Yiqing," Wu Zilong's eyes were slightly dark, and there was a hint of sadness on his face. "The day before yesterday, he was taken out of the temple by Baoyijun, and never went back again. His family is also a prominent family in Wuzhong. He has worshipped Buddhism for generations. If it weren't for his elder brother, the prime minister said that he had a poor life when he was a child, and the old lady would not have been willing to let him urinate into Buddhism since childhood."

In his opinion, the seriousness of killing hundreds of monks was almost comparable to the "White Horse Change" in the late Tang Dynasty and the destruction of Buddhism by Yelu Dashi in Liao Dynasty. The Southeast Xingying did not discuss with the Ministry of Rites. The Ministry of Justice discussed that such arbitrary behavior was arrogance. If the court did not punish him, sooner or later Zhao Xingde, who would raise a tiger, would be a disaster, as he was deployed, and he could not refuse the blame.

Wu Zilong sighed a few times and said seriously, "No matter what, the hundreds of monks taken away by the Bao Yi army, pretended to crack the Liao monster art, and killed them, and insulted their bones. He regarded the court system as if nothing was needed. He could not help but give an explanation?" When Bao Yi army extorted local areas, there was a lot of criticism from the prefectures and county schools, and Wu Zilong also vigorously maintained them. Now he couldn't help but regret it. Whether Zhao Xingde was arbitrary or was also deceived.

"So that's it," Chen Dong sighed, "However, Yuan Zhi acted decisively, and there was a reason for this to stabilize the morale of the army," he pondered for a while and said seriously, "No matter what, the Northern Expedition is a big deal, at this critical moment, no matter whether the court or county, there must be no trouble." Before Zhao Xingde sent troops, he wrote a letter to Chen Dong, briefly explaining the reasons for dealing with these monks, but Baoyi Army actually slaughtered all the monks and sent the bodies to feed the dogs, which still shocked Chen Dong very much.

"Oh, what's the reason?" Wu Zilong's eyes sterned and his face was suspicious.

"It is related to the morale of the army. Before the end of the northern expedition, it cannot be made public," Chen Dong said seriously, "I stand on Zhao Yuanzhi's side. When the situation stabilizes, the truth will be revealed and a fairness will be given." He looked at Wu Zilong with a firm look, "Brother Wu, we must all put the overall situation first."

Wu Zilong was stunned. Although he didn't know why Chen Dong stood on Zhao Xingde's side so firmly, his indignation was shaken a little bit, and he secretly said, "Zhao Xingde's usual behavior is not so perverse? What is the reason he has to kill hundreds of monks?" He sighed and said to Chen Dongdao, "The Ministry of Rites does its best."

In the city of Ezhou, in the palace of Xishan Mountain, Zhao Qi was walking back and forth like an ant on a hot pan, suddenly stopped and whispered, "How could Zhao Yuanzhi be so confused? Although I am a northerner, I know that the Southeast gentry worships Buddhism. The monks and great masters in the temples are no less famous than those of the Qingliu people. In addition, they are good at chanting and praying, and they have no disputes with the world. Do you know that these hundreds of monks, relatives and friends, and how many people are involved in this way, they offended almost all the gentry in the nearby prefectures and counties overnight. How can they gain a foothold in the court in the future?"

"Brother, Mr. Zhao is not a cruel person," Zhao Huan whispered, "There must be a reason for him to do this."

When she made a sound, Zhao Qi and Deng Su looked over at the same time. Zhao Huan couldn't help feeling a little nervous. He lowered his head and looked at the pen that was like a forest in the pen. Zhao Qi was covered with a gap between Cao Di and Chen Dong. It could be said that he had no power. However, as the emperor, there were many people who flattered Zhao Qi and made a good calligraphy. The Southeast literary style was prosperous. Everyone collected a lot. After settling in Ezhou for a short time, all parties contributed, and the imperial case was full of famous calligraphy works.

Deng Su sighed and turned his face. His Highness Sixteenth Princess spoke to Yuan Zhi so much, which was beyond his expectations. He learned that Zhao Xingde slaughtered hundreds of monks and almost scolded them as rumors. Later, the monks' families and relatives swore to name and name them. The students from the county school were all indignant. Deng Su chose to be cautious. He knew that His Majesty had given Zhao Xingde inexplicably high hopes, but His Majesty's ability was not tolerated. Deng Su glanced at His Highness Sixteenth Princess

"Why can't he bear it?" Zhao Qi growled, "Why can't he bear it?" It seemed that his thoughts were touched. His voice was even sad, "Even if these 100 monks offend him, if he endured him a little, his situation would not be as bad as it is now." Zhao Qi grabbed a Ru kiln teacup with his hand and raised it up suddenly. Suddenly, he realized something, his forehead veins swelled up, and slowly put it back on the Huashi table, leaned his back on the ring chair, closed his eyes and raised his head and breathed deeply.

Dunhuang, the Prime Minister's Office signed the house, Liu Yi and Zhang Shanfu, and Wu Ting sat opposite, and there was a thin file on the wide Huayan table.

As a junior general who both valued great importance to, Zhao Xingde openly violated military orders and led the Song army to pursue Yelu Dashi's march alone on the north side. Sima Shi Jingkui reported to the Military Department with a fast pigeon on the same day. The detailed works of the Military Information Department also reported to the General Wu Ting's 100th anniversary of the founding of the Xia Dynasty, with a territory of thousands of miles. There were only a handful of generals who disobeyed the orders. No matter what the specific reason was, there was no one who did not deal with it seriously.

"The Military Information Department has sent an envoy to order Zhao Xingde to station troops and not to continue to disobey."

"But will he obey?" Zhang Shanfu threw the file with some anger. "It's really a bastard. He thought that a mere protector army, the people and horses in the southeast camp could hold the building up? Or would he want to bury himself in." He glanced at Liu Yi, and waited for his opinion to lead the general to disobey the military order. The nature of the incident was extremely serious. The Song army was instigated by Zhao Xingde. Regardless of victory or defeat, it would be extremely unfavorable to Xia State. If the protection government and the Zhu State Government took advantage of the situation, even the marching department itself could not bear some responsibility. As one of Zhao Xingde's cultivaters, Liu Yi must bear some responsibility together.

"It's indeed a bastard." Liu Yi sighed, and his temples were sucked, looking a little tired.

Faced with the attack of the Xia army, the Rom Turks used partial troops to defend a few cities, but the main cavalry avoided fighting. The supply line of the Anxi army was getting longer and longer, but the war was not seen. At this time, on the eastern front, it was crucial that the two trapped beasts of Liao and Song continued to bite each other. According to the strategy of the marching department, consolidate the line from Luoyang to Xiangyang, Ezhou, and leave Bianliang and Henan to the Song and Liao armies to slowly consume it. Although it would

The war lasted for a long time, but it was in line with the interests of Xia State. Liu Yi himself agreed that Zhao Xingde's disobedience was a force that affected his entire body. The consequences were extremely serious. Other generals of the Song State commanding troops, Cao Di, Yue Fei, Han Shizhong, and the three groups each sent troops, with a total of nearly 200,000 Song troops fighting north. If it goes well, it may recover Henan in one fell swoop. If it fails, the Liao army can take advantage of the situation to sweep the Song territory and then threaten the places controlled by Xia State.

"However, this bastard still knows the importance of the matter, and he did not fight with the musket army in the north," Liu Yi said slowly, "Otherwise, the Guardian might have proposed to cut off all the musket camps in the name of being loyal and worrying." Zhang Shanfu said in a deep voice, "The centurion and above of the musket camp are soldiers. If they were not deceived, they would not be easily conscripted." Wu Ting shook his head, "If he dared to touch that brain, it would be a crime of traitor."

"Zhao Xingde left his post without permission and handed over the troops to Shi Jingkui to join forces with Wu Jie. He left the team alone and insisted on leading the Song army to pursue Yelu Dashi." Liu Yi sighed, "Now it seems that the Song army's northern expedition is on the string, and he has to issue a plan for response. As for Zhao Xingde?" Liu Yi asked back, "What is the marching department going to do with it?" Hearing his question, Zhang Shanfu and Wu Ting's faces changed slightly at the same time.

"If he does not betray our court for this," Zhang Shanfu's face was as deep as water. "If he is willing to accept military law, let him go to Annan to be punished."
