The imperial tomb of the Zhao family was still in Henan, and Song Huizong could only go to the Taimiao in Hangzhou to make a simple sacrifice and pray for the blessing of his ancestors; however, although the war in Henan was rotten, the Dingbei Army in the northwest still held the pressure on the Western Xia, which was a great boost for the Song court in the wind and rain. To tell the truth, from Song Huizong to the prime ministers, they actually didn't believe that when Guanzhong was undecided, the Jin army dared to attack Jiangnan.

What's more, because Liu Yu became the king and established the pseudo-Qi, it was impossible for the peace talks between the Great Song Dynasty and the Jin State to be carried out again, and it was a general direction to fight, under this premise, Song Huizong still agreed with the response of the Privy Council, using Jiangnan, Huaixi, and Guanzhong to form a front, and using the situation in the northwest to fight against the Jin army. Song Huizong believed that the third elder Zhao Kai would spare no effort to fight the Jin army for the sake of his position; as for Lao Jiu's army, as long as it was still fighting in Henan, Yangzhou and other places.

After the sacrifice was completed, Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty turned to Wuyue Temple and gave the ministers a banquet, and the civil officials who followed him all changed into ball-headed hats, lion shirts, gold-plated kings' belts, and military generals with double-rolled foot skirts and purple swan knotted wide shirts in the sedan chair. The two classes in front of the hall were all dressed in scarlet blue and purple three-color gold-threaded robes, carrying glazed jade pillar lamps; the prime minister and the prince took the hundred officials to sit according to the procedure, and King Jing Zhao Qi and the prime minister Zhu Shengfei sat on both sides of Song Huizong.

This arrangement is somewhat unexpected, and it does not follow the path of respecting the elderly in the past, and many officials muttered in their hearts that there is no good banquet, and the saint is expressing his attitude to people. After everyone thanked each other, they took their seats, only to find that today's banquet was a bit shabby, and there were only oil cakes, jujube towers, and fruits on the food table in front of everyone; the dancers in the workshop had already begun to pour wine for everyone, I am afraid that they had been rehearsed in advance, and there was a dancer on the table of five meals.

The sound of the pipa sounded, and the song and dance followed, and the officials sitting in the back row could clearly see that there were more than 100 musicians in the back, and in the front were all 50-sided pipa, and 50 musicians were conducting the dance, but the sound made seemed to be played by one person, without a little noise. Today's song by Song Hui Zongxuan is also a bit strange, passionate and generous, describing the ten-sided ambush of Xiang Yu and Han Xin's battle.

Behind the pipa hand is a row of gonghou, which is three feet high, shaped like half a wooden comb, and painted in black lacquer and gold; Hearing the sound of the pipa breaking, the applause in the audience was like thunder, and he began to play the peacock flying southeast; "Thirteen can weave, fourteen learn tailoring, fifteen play gonghou, sixteen recite poetry and books." Seventeen is a gentleman's wife, and her heart is always bitter and sad. The king is a government official, and he keeps the festival unswervingly. The concubines leave empty rooms, and they often see each other rarely. The rooster crows into the weaving, and the night does not stop. ”

Song Huizong smiled, looked at the unknown ministers below, and asked Zhao Qi, the king of Jing beside him: "The southeast is good, what do you think of the war in Bianliang?"

Zhao Qi has been thinking about it since he came in, whether Song Huizong is going to make up his mind today, what he is waiting for is this opportunity, Zhao Qi has the information sent by Zheng Yinian from the Daimyo's Mansion, and it is very clear that the goal of the Jin army going south is Bianliang; Wanyan Zongwang is waiting for an opportunity to fight a decisive battle with Yang Zhi, wanting to attract Yang Zhi out of the pass, defeat this sworn brother in Luoyang or somewhere, and vent the evil anger in the heart of the Jin army.

Zhao Qi didn't care whether this news was true or not, even if it was fake, what did it matter, the battlefield would have constantly changed its strategic goals with the change of the situation; even if he was wrong, Wanyan Zongwang wanted to take Bianliang and continue to go south, it was nothing for Zhao Qi. Zhao Qi pondered and said: "I believe in the ability of the third brother and Yang Zhi, the most difficult thing in Bianliang is winter, but winter is definitely not good for the Jin army to attack the city; ”

Song Huizong said: "Such a simple truth, but unfortunately many people just don't understand." There seem to be a lot of troops in Jiangnan, but most of them are new troops, and the army that has not been tempered by war needs to be commanded by famous generals. ”

Zhao Qi didn't dare to speak, now if you want to talk about famous generals, it is naturally the third brother Zhao Kai who has the most subordinates, after all, the Western Xia, who has been fighting with the Great Song Dynasty for more than a hundred years, was beaten to the ground by Zhao Kai, if there is no Jin Jun's trouble, either this winter or next spring and summer, Zhao Kai will definitely capture Xingzhou and completely draw an end to Western Xia. If Song Huizong got a few generals from the Dingbei Army back to take charge of the army in Jiangnan, it would not be good for Zhao Qi.

Fortunately, the peacock's southeast flight ended, and the applause ended the conversation between the father and son, and I saw four tall drummers walking to the two elevated drums, holding high the drum sticks wrapped in gold ribbons in both hands, and beating them in turn, the drums were fast and bright, like shooting stars, which made people's eyes shine. The 20-sided drums on both sides are beaten to accompany the drum sound of the big drum, sometimes as the background, sometimes competing with each other, and beating out a different rhythm.

As soon as the drum stopped, the cheerful flute and flute sounded, the dancers sang and danced from the four corners into the middle of the banquet. This is the custom, the first glass of wine shows that the world is clear, must be cheerful, the group of dancers dance fast, in the blink of an eye to dance three tunes, except for a solo dance, the rest of the people are in the dance withdrew.

The solo dancers were superhuman in terms of appearance and dancing skills, and spun around sixteen times in one breath before exiting amid cheers; Song Huizong obviously enjoyed this atmosphere of enjoying the people, and he couldn't help but not get angry at those presumptuous scenes, and was still laughing. When the singing resumed, Song Huizong gave a second glass of wine, but the rhythm of the singing and dancing slowed down significantly, and finally there was a hint of Jiangnan flavor.

After the Man dance, the third glass of wine, juggling entered, on the pole, jumping rope, handstand, bending waist, somersault, here is the view of Wuyue, and all are nobles, there are no animals such as lions and leopards;

After drinking the fourth glass of wine, watching the group dance, eating meat, bones and cakes, the officials below ate happily and talked more, and the most discussed was Qian Gai; there were no secrets in the officialdom, even if Qian Gai thought he was secret, most of them knew that Qian Gai was the driving force behind this incident. The arrangement of the imperial court is to remind Qian Gai that you caused this matter, or you need to return it yourself.

Li Hui can naturally hear these statements, but Li Hui has no choice, who let Qian Gai take a stinky move, the masters compete, one son makes a mistake, and the whole game is lost.
