Xiang Minzhong curled his lips, and said with a smile but a smile: "Why does the old man listen to you sour? Is it because he didn't get a share of the pie, and he feels unwilling."
Kou Ji squinted at Xiang Minzhong, curled his lips and said, "I'm not as superficial as you said."
Xiang Minzhong said hehe: "If you are not superficial, you won't be so greedy for money."
Kou Ji stunned and said: "Why am I greedy for money?"
Xiang Minzhong clicked his mouth and said, "You don't use the golden cups and jade cups that the palace gave you less for money, right?"
Kou Ji looked puzzled.
Xiang Minzhong said quietly: "On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the old man was invited to participate in a sale. The jade bowl used by the official family was worth only about 100,000 guan, and it was copied abruptly to 200,000 guan. Really awesome."
Xiang Minzhong glanced at Kou Ji and said in a low voice: "In this Bianjing city, no one can compare you to the means of soliciting money."
Kou Ji was stunned for a moment, and recalled carefully.
Finally remembered this stubbornness.
On the tenth day of the first lunar month, Kou Zhong asked Kou Ji how to deal with the things given by the palace when he was counting the property in the mansion.
Kou Ji said casually and took it to sell.
He also told Kou Zhong that those things were used by officials and relatives of the emperor, and they were all stained with dragon spirit.
If it's publicity, each one can be sold at a high price.
He just said casually, he didn't expect Kou Zhong to work so efficiently.
Seeing Kou Ji in thought, Xiang Minzhong kept silent, and continued: "Don't you admit that you are superficial?"
Kou Ji spread his hand and said lightly: "Well, I admit I am superficial."
Seeing Kou Jifu soft, Xiang Minzhong nodded in satisfaction, and said, "What do you think of Xixia's war?"
Kou Ji pondered for a moment, and said seriously: "If you can take down all the places south of the Great Wall, there will be no Xixia after that."
Xiang Minzhong was taken aback, and said, "You mean, they can take the south of the Great Wall?"
Kou Ji nodded and said: "If the speed is fast enough, except for Lingzhou, all other places will be attributed to my Da Song."
Xiang Minzhong said in surprise: "The rich and commonplace of Xixia is all south of the Great Wall. If it is taken by the court, Xixia will surely perish under the attack of Song and Liao, and that is no less than the power of destroying the country."
Xiang Minzhong originally thought that the dispatch of troops this time was just to plot one or two states.
After hearing what Koj said, he realized how vital this battle was.
Immediately.
The old man Xiang Minzhong didn't tell Kou Jiduo, and turned around to find Kou Zhun and Liu E.
He went to find Kou Zhun and Liu E what to do.
Kou Ji can probably guess it too.
It is nothing more than planning one or two positions for his sons in the army to attack Xixia, so as to take the opportunity to share the credit.
The reason why Kou Ji knew so clearly was because Xiang Minzhong was not the only one who did this.
Earlier, when they learned that the imperial court had sent troops, they all justified themselves to seek explanations from the imperial court.
Now that I see that there is credit for sharing profits, one by one I want to get together and share a little credit.
When the banquet was about to end, there were more than a dozen supervising troops, more than 30 food supervisors, and hundreds of other miscellaneous officials among the army conquering Xixia.
Kou Ji has no opinion on this.
As long as the war between Xixia and the Liao Kingdom does not go wrong, as long as the imperial court conquer Xixia does not go wrong, the imperial court will invade and occupy the territory of the eight and nine prefectures of Xixia, it is still easy.
Although Xixia is a nomadic people, it can make a comeback at any time regardless of the gains and losses of one city and one place.
However, as long as the court's soldiers and horses advance fast enough, they will steadily occupy the Xixia territory south of the Great Wall, and by the way occupy the Great Wall all over the territory of Xixia.
With the Great Wall as a barrier, Xixia, who was beaten into a dead dog by the Great Song and Liao States, could only sigh with excitement.
If you want to take back the territory of Xixia from the Song Dynasty, you can only bypass the Great Wall and march from the west of the Song Dynasty.
But they have to fight with Ganzhou Huihu and Qingtang first, and then talk about it.
Da Song frequently loses in offensive wars, but rarely loses in defensive wars.
With the Great Wall as a barrier, it was enough to resist the remnants of Xixia's attack.
After the feast is over.
Kou Ji had just left the palace gate, and Xiang Minzhong, an old man, found Kou Ji triumphantly.
In the army of this conquest of Xixia, he fought for the positions of three food inspectors for his three sons, and he will definitely share a lot of credit in this war.
Jiaguan Jinjue is just around the corner, so he is very happy.
He saw Kou Ji and asked carelessly: "Kou boy, when are you going to propose marriage at the old man's house?"
Kou Ji pretended to be at a loss, "What to propose, the kid doesn't know what you are talking about."
When Xiang Minzhong heard this, he drooped and said angrily: "Your kid stole the old man's granddaughter's purse for her future husband's son-in-law, and carried it around, spreading rumors, saying that the old man's granddaughter loves you. .
Now the reputation of the old man and granddaughter is ruined by you.
Do you still want to admit it? "
Kou Ji raised his eyebrows and said with a weird look: "Are you sure I stole the purse?"
The expression on Xiang Minzhong's face froze, and he said stubbornly: "The old man doesn't care how this purse got to you. Now that you wear it, you have taken the opportunity to sway. The reputation of the old man's granddaughter is also bad for you. You have to be responsible.
Otherwise... Otherwise..."
Xiang Minzhong looked around, saw the pillar at the entrance of the temple, and threatened fiercely: "Otherwise, the old man will find a pillar in your Kou Mansion and hit him to death, to see how your Kou Mansion can gain a foothold in Bianjing."
Kou Ji's mouth twitched, and said dryly, "Would you like to be so cruel?"
Xiang Minzhong hummed: "You have ruined the reputation of the old man and granddaughter, and the old man has to ask her for justice."
Kou Ji explained: "This is not what I wanted, it is purely the work of those good people. Besides, the kid and Ling's granddaughter are still young, not suitable for dating, nor for marriage."
Xiang Minzhong heard the words and said angrily: "What's not suitable? Your kid is seventeen this year. When the old man was your age, he had two children in his arms.
When your grandfather was your age, the Oiran lady bought two rooms. "
Kou Jigan smiled and said: "During the funeral of the first emperor, it is not suitable for love and love."
Abandoning these words, Kou Ji left the palace like running away.
Xiang Minzhong looked at the back of Kou Ji running away, and cursed with his chest and feet: "Smelly boy, can you run? The old man goes to Kou Zhun to reason."
Xiang Minzhong blocked the entrance of the hall.
After Kou Zhun came out, he greeted him and blocked Kou Zhun.
He treated Kou Zhun, but he was not as gentle as Kou Ji.
He blocked Kou Zhun and said angrily: "Kou Zhun, your grandson has ruined my granddaughter's reputation, you can figure it out."
Kou Zhun was in a good mood today, and after hearing this from Xiang Minzhong, he was not angry.
He thought for a moment, and said in a deep thought, "A few days later, the old man asks the Geng Tie to be sent there. You will find someone to unite the eight characters first before talking about it."
Originally, Kou Zhun didn't intend to bother about Kou Ji's marriage.
But Kou Ji is now seventeen and hasn't been married yet. He doesn't go to the fireworks and willow alleys to hang out on weekdays, nor does he have a close friend, not even a concubine.
The beautifully dressed maids in the house love to go to Kou Ji's door to hang out in front of them on weekdays, and I haven't seen Kou Ji ruining that.
Kou Ji is like a novice monk in that temple, not close at all, which makes Kou Zhun a little worried.
He also heard a little bit of the rumors in the city of Bianjing.
There are rumors that Kou Ji is a male style, so he is not close to female.
Some people even said that Kou Ji raised a beautiful man outside for his own fun.
Rumors have noses and eyes.
If Kou Ji hadn't been swaying in front of Kou Zhun all day, Kou Zhunba would have believed.
After all, the ordinary 17- or 18-year-old boy, when he was full of energy, either peeked at other pretty widows to take a bath, or drilled into the fireworks willow alley all day long.
Even those scholars who profess to be honest and gentlemen will accept one or two concubines and occasionally hide in the boudoir for fun.
It is precisely because of this that Kou Zhun plans to take action and take care of Kou Ji's marriage.
When Xiang Minzhong heard Kou Zhun's words, a smile finally appeared on his face.
"The old man is waiting at the house for you to send someone to send Geng Tie over."
Kou Zhun nodded slowly.
A few days later.
Kou Zhun carried Kou Ji on his back and sent Geng Tie to Xiangfu.
However, the results obtained are not optimistic.
The horoscopes don’t fit.
Kou Ji is at odds with Xiang Yan.
This made the two old ladies who were planning together secretly feel a little unhappy.
They found seven or eight horoscopes, and they all came to the same conclusion.
Not only did I not hear a good word, but it was even horrible one by one.
Any combination of two people will surely bring disaster to the whole family; any combination of two people will make it difficult for Kou Xiang to the two provinces; it is also said that Kou Ji has an early death and will definitely die early.
then.
These people were sent to the prison of the Ministry of Justice by two veterans who turned into anger.
A deceptive hat was firmly buckled on these people's heads.
Under the strong suppression of the two veterans, the people who helped Kou Ji and Xiang Yan combined the eight characters, all said nice things one by one.
The two old men are satisfied.
When they were preparing for the next move, they came forward to Minzhong's wife and stopped the matter.
Xiang Minzhong’s wife believes in Buddhism and often runs to Daxiangguo Temple on weekdays, so she is particularly in awe of these gods and ghosts.
She knew that there was a problem with Kou Ji and Xiang Yan's horoscopes, and the two old men were suppressing them strongly. It was obviously inappropriate to combine the horoscopes of the two people.
So this marriage was blocked.
The two old men also argued strongly with Xiang Minzhong's wife for this.
In the end, there was no result.
The matter is not over.
Start with the Bazi and end with the Bazi.
Kou Ji had no idea.
He didn't know at all, he almost got married.
He stared wholeheartedly at the imperial court's conquest of Xixia.
When Erlong looked up in February.
Da Song, the powerful dragon who had inserted into the battlefield, also raised his head.
The 150,000 soldiers and horses led by Li Zhaoliang, after taking Longzhou, went straight to Niuxinting and captured the Great Wall along Jingbian and Hengshan.
After taking over Hongzhou, the fifty thousand horses led by Zhe Weizhong went out of Hongzhou and approached Jianing, the military center of Xixia. In Guwuyan city, they fought a battle with thirty thousand Xixia soldiers and horses organized hastily by Li Deming , Fight and win it.
After that, he went all the way to Jianing.
After Chong Shiheng's soldiers and horses from Qingjian City took Weizhou, they crossed the vast sea, took the Bole City and Yaode City in Xixia, fought to the west, and captured Xiakou, Mingsha, Yingli and other places. .
Three-way soldiers and horses, the momentum is like a rainbow.
In Xixia's territory south of the Great Wall, a little and a half fell into the hands of Song Dynasty.
Subsequently, Da Song made profits again and again.
After Li Zhaoliang's soldiers took the Great Wall along the Jingbian and Hengshan lines, they used the Great Wall as a barrier to march towards the Shizhou and Yinzhou lines in Xixia.
At the end of February, Keshi Prefecture, in mid-March, Keyin Prefecture.
Zhe Weizhong fought Xixia soldiers and horses in Jianing, and won the battle. He won the Yuzhou and Yanzhou of Xixia, the Great Walls of Yuzhou and Yanzhou he occupied, and the Great Walls occupied by Li Zhaoliang formed a line. , Forming a huge barrier.
The soldiers and horses led by Zhong Shiheng successively took the Xiakou, Mingsha, and Yingli places.
At the end of April.
Almost all of the Xixia territory south of the Great Wall fell into the hands of Song Dynasty.
Zhe Weizhong's soldiers and horses and Zhong Shiheng's soldiers and horses joined together on the banks of the Lingzhou River, preparing to approach Lingzhou in Xixia.
Then, the soldiers and horses led by Li Zhaoliang did not move much after they took the Yinzhou.
Li Deming saw that most of the Xixia territories south of the Great Wall fell in the hands of the Song Dynasty. He sent envoys to the Song Dynasty Hall to cry and complain and show loyalty. While resisting the Liao people, he let his son Li Yuanhao lead ten Wan Bingma went south.
In the past, whenever Da Song had attacked his mind, he would send messengers to Da Song, all kinds of crying, all kinds of demonstrating loyalty, without any disadvantage.
Da Song will not only give up attacking Xixia, but will also give him a lot of good things.
But this time, Da Song seemed to be determined to turn his face with him, and it was useless to harass him many times.
On the banks of the Lingzhou River, the 100,000 soldiers and horses led by Li Yuanhao held against the soldiers and horses of Zhe Weizhong and Chong Shiheng.
After Zhe Weizhong and Chong Shiheng's soldiers and horses arrived on the banks of the Lingzhouchuan River, they did not rush out.
They were waiting for the 150,000 army led by Li Zhaoliang to come back and forth, and then together with Li Zhaoliang's soldiers and horses, they drove towards Lingzhou and took the entire territory south of the Xixia Great Wall.
But they waited for a full month by the Lingzhou River, but did not wait for Li Zhaoliang to appear.
Just when they frequently wrote to the court asking Li Zhaoliang why he hadn't moved, a shocking news came.
Li Deming and Yelu Longxu, with a combined total of nearly a million soldiers and horses, fought in Dingzhou.
Li Deming cleverly used tricks to dig the Yellow River dams, divert the water from the Yellow River, and invert the Liao army, which was defeated.
The Liao State, known as the hegemony, was defeated, and Yelu Longxu, who was known as victorious in all battles, was defeated, and was defeated by Li Deming, the king of Xixia.
The invincible faith of the Liao Kingdom was destroyed, and Li Deming's power suddenly rose.
No one wants to believe this news, but it really happened.
Seeing his repeated urging, the imperial court did not move, so he immediately sent Ge Huaimin, his friend of life and death, to Bianjing City to inquire about the matter in person.
Ge Huaimin is also the son of Jiangmen Hu, whose father is the late Taiwei Ge Ba.
After Ge Huaimin entered Beijing, he found Kou Zhun.
And enter the palace together with Kou Zhun.
Meet Liu E in person.
Shishitang.
Liu E sat in the seat with no expression on his face.
Kou Zhun had a sullen face, staring at Liu E, and said solemnly: "Queen Dowager, what is going on with Li Huailiang? Why is the 150,000 soldiers and horses led by him staying in Yinzhou for a long time
Now Xixia defeated Liao, and the momentum is fierce.
Without the assistance of 150,000 soldiers and horses led by Li Zhaoliang, the Xixia territories regained by the court before, I am afraid that they will be taken back by the Xixia people.
Maybe Xixia people will use this to invade south. "
Liu E narrowed his eyes and whispered: "Zhe family army has always been loyal and courageous, and Chong Shiheng has always been resourceful. With him and two of them standing by the Lingzhou River, they will never let the Xixia people invade a step south.
The Aijia believes that they can stop the Xixia people. "
