"The official family is sick?" Hong Tao now understood that this celebration was created by the two of them, otherwise the news of the retreat of the Jinhe Empire warship would not have been transmitted so quickly.

Although I don't like this, I don't object to it. The necessary image project still has to be done, which is a propaganda method and the effect is pretty good. As for Emperor Lizong's failure to come forward in person, this is not a problem. It is actually better than not coming out. Once the emperor appears in such an occasion, he has to pretend to act to deceive the people, and it is very troublesome to be polite. However, Emperor Lizong's illness cannot be careless. Is it really sick or fake illness? Hong Tao did not ask Jia Sidao and Ding Daquan, but looked at the lieutenant of the 6th team responsible for the safety work in the palace.

"I am indeed sick. I started having a high fever since last night. The military doctor has been staying overnight. The condition improved in the morning, but I still have some fever and it is not suitable for activities." The lieutenant understood what Hong Tao meant and quickly introduced the condition of Emperor Lizong.

"Oh, the government is also worried about the country's hard work, and it is a disease. Can the two lords notify Your Majesty of the good news?" Hong Tao felt a little relieved after hearing the lieutenant's words. At present, Emperor Lizong cannot die, which is not conducive to maintaining stability in the Song Dynasty.

"Prime Minister, please rest assured. The ministers have already told the female officials personally and asked them to convey it on their behalf. After hearing the good news that the Prime Minister has retreated from the enemy, his illness will definitely improve." Ding Daquan not only spoke sincerely, but also his expression on his face was very sincere, as if he really thought so.

In fact, during these days, he had never seen Emperor Lizong several times. Apart from attending court, the palace garden where Emperor Lizong's family lived was closed by the six teams. The only contact channel for the outside world was the swallows under Cixi. They temporarily acted as palace maids around the emperor and handled all the things of the emperor's family.

"That's good! According to the two adults, do I need to have fun with the people?" Knowing that the emperor is not in danger of his life for the time being, Hong Tao began to think about how to maximize the effectiveness of this celebration. However, on this issue, we have to seek the opinions of Ding Daquan and Jia Sidao. They know the people of Lin'an best.

"No, no! Adults only need to get on the horse and return to the palace. The people respect their style, so they can only respect them. Too close will not be beautiful." Jia Sidao took the lead in understanding Hong Tao's meaning and also gave his opinions.

"Mr. Jia said very much that the Prime Minister is an important official of the court, and the court has its own dignity..." Ding Daquan also echoed.

"Okay, then I will be good at it once. Don't get on the horse. I have been on the boat for a long time, and my arms and legs are a little numb. Let's go and let the two adults support me here!" When Hong Tao heard that he didn't have to pretend, he smiled and bowed to the officials present, and then bowed to the people of Lin'an in the distance. Then he took a big step towards the Jiahui gate. Wen Nan and the 6-team members who had just come down from the warship followed behind.

This is the first time Hong Tao has made public appearance in Lin'an after occupying Lin'an, which can be regarded as an official announcement of his arrival. At present, his identity is still reinforcements invited by the Emperor of the Song Dynasty and the court, but an imperial edict will be issued soon, and his reinforcements will be appointed as Prime Minister of the Song Dynasty by Emperor Lizong. During the negotiations with the Jinhe Empire, the process of being slapped by Ding Daquan and Jia Sidao, was called a lonely hero in a rhythm that was very beneficial to him. The new prime minister took office a bit of legitimate reason, at least it would not make too many people feel abrupt.

Hong Tao did not expect this matter in advance that Ding Daquan and Jia Sidao did it according to their own understanding. In their opinion, this kind of thing can lead to many benefits, especially in accumulating reputation. Whoever is involved in this kind of thing can gain a lot of reputation. What their new owner currently lacks is reputation. For both of them, the quality of the new owner is directly related to their second half of their lives, so they do not need to take everything personally, and they have to consciously do anything that is beneficial to the new owner. While protecting the new owner, they also safeguard their own interests, which is called a community of interests. Although they cannot speak this word, they understand this principle more thoroughly than Hong Tao.

In the winter of 1254, the Song Dynasty finally came out of the haze of war. The fire in the south suddenly disappeared with the arrival of the northwest wind. In late October, the Straits Company suddenly announced a unilateral truce without warning. Not only that, their troops began to retreat the next day, retreated dozens to hundreds of kilometers from the battlefield in one breath, and gave way out many passes that could be defended. It was not sincere.

Ten days later, the Song Dynasty court also responded. Emperor Lizong issued an imperial edict, accepted the decision of the truce of the Strait Company, and announced the reopening of negotiations between the two sides, and sent Wen Nan, the new deputy prime minister of the Song Empire, as the plenipotentiary representative. At the same time, the army in the southern part of the Song Dynasty also began to stop contact and slowly retreated, leaving a buffer belt between the two sides of the war.

Almost at the same time, the Jinhe Empire announced that as a truce mediator, it formally sent observers to the buffer zone between the two sides for supervision. Whoever dared to unilaterally enter the buffer zone for military provocation during the negotiations would be equivalent to declaring war with the Jinhe Empire.

This series of sudden changes made everyone a little stunned. From south to north, they were asking a question, why? Why did it suddenly cease to fight? Moreover, the Jinhe Empire, which had been unwilling to show up for official appearance, also got in. This time it was not a skewer, but a real persuasion. There must be something wrong here. The three countries cooperated with each other in such a tacit understanding. If it was a coincidence, no one would believe it except the common people.

In fact, there is no connection here. Soon someone sorted out the abnormal phenomena that occurred in the court in the past few months and found some clues. First, someone wanted to assassinate the emperor, and then the court began a great purge, and many officials were implicated. The original right prime minister was at the brunt of the brunt, while the left prime minister Ding Daquan and Lin'an prefect Jia Sidao became loyal ministers to protect the emperor and had the right to speak in the court.

From then on, the imperial edicts issued in the court were like not having money, one after another. Most of them were appointed and removed from local officials in various prefectures, counties and military towns. However, the local leaders were basically not moved, but the second leaders were transferred back. The magistrate and the military supervisor were originally the eyes and ears of the court. In addition, it was reasonable to change them on a large scale.

However, the newly appointed magistrate and military supervisor made the monk a little confused. They were all foreign aids invited by the court, and they were said to be from the East. These Eastern people all spoke strange Chinese. After they came, they walked around in the jurisdiction all day long. Apart from holding notebooks, they were not in a hurry to seize power, and they didn't care about what the top leader did, which was very easy to get along with.

If it were normal times, those local officials with great power in the local and military towns would have long submitted a memorial to the court to question the intention of this move. There were foreign officials in the Song Dynasty, but not so many, and now so many second-in-commands were sent suddenly, what does it mean! But this time most of the officials kept their mouths closed at the same time. The reason was very simple. Everyone could feel that there was a huge change in the court. Although no one knew what was born, the news from Lin'an City proved that this conjecture was very correct. Groups of officials became rebels and were taken outside the Jiahui gate and were chopped off. Don't mention the persecution of loyal and kindness. Almost every one of these people had conclusive evidence. The most important thing was to collude with rebels. People and physical evidence were all available, and they could not resist them.

The plot later makes people even more dizzy. The Royal Navy of the Jinhe Empire has been thriving north with great strength and gathered outside Hangzhou Bay. What is this coming? There is no need to ask, and it must have been arguing. There is always the shadow of the Jinhe Empire behind the Strait Company. But I didn't expect it to jump to the front desk so soon, putting arms and sleeves on the war. Just when many local officials and military generals of the Song Dynasty felt that the court was out of power, the group of Oriental people jumped out again, and actually took the initiative to sail to fight with ten warships, and fought to set the world down, forcing the Royal Navy fleet back.

Who is so powerful? Who doesn’t know what the Royal Navy is? But its more than 100 warships were forced back by more than 10 warships. According to the people of the Song Dynasty Navy, the man with ten warships was not afraid at that time and went deep into the royal navy’s warship group alone, approaching the flagship of the Jinhe Empire Emperor, capturing the opponent’s chief general alive, so he forced the enemy back without any effort.

It's so magical. It's almost as good as the heroes in the performance. It's a general among thousands of troops! Anyone with a little brain has to make a big question mark in his heart. But the people of the Song Dynasty like this kind of joke. The Chinese have admired lone heroes since thousands of years ago. If this hero ends up in the end, it will be even more touching and must be remembered forever.

This matter is no longer verified, because tens of thousands of Lin'an people went to the riverside dock to welcome the hero on that day. After processing their mouths, this joke has been interpreted in many more detailed versions. Even the dialogue between the leaders of the two sides was completely supplemented. It was compiled into commentary by Lin'an people, preaching everywhere, and there were even big books in the newspaper. If anyone dared to raise questions, it would be questioning the IQ of the entire people and the prestige of the Song Dynasty, it would be despised by everyone and be called a traitor.
