Rebirth: Overthrow Song Dynasty

Zhao Chen chatted with some elders in the village about family affairs, and they talked about trivial things, but the surrounding villagers felt extremely cordial.

Don't talk about "emperor" in the past, even ordinary officials can't talk about these topics with them.

"Your Majesty, it's already noon. We have someone prepare meals. You, your lords, and all your officers and men should eat here." After a while, Qian Shirong said.

"No hurry, I still have to go around the village to have a look." Zhao Chen said.

At that moment, Zhao Chen stood up and walked towards the outside. Yu Yunwen and others followed behind Zhao Chen, and Qian Shirong and other villagers also hurriedly followed.

The snow outside was already half a foot thick, and when I walked on the road, I could only hear a creaking sound.

Zhao Chen looked around, and saw that most of the village was thatched cottages, which were very dilapidated. There are only a few landlords in the whole village, and the rest are ordinary tenant farmers.

The number of Han people in this village is ten times that of the Khitan people, but most of the Khitan people are also tenant farmers who serve the landlords.

In the twelfth lunar month of winter, there is really nothing to enjoy in the village.

After walking for a while, he was about to reach the entrance of the village. At this moment, Zhao Chen found two children playing there.

These two children are four or five years old, they are wearing Khitan clothes, and their hair is also Khitan clothes.

At that moment, Zhao Chen stopped, and everyone around him also hurriedly stopped.

Those two Khitan kids were having fun at first, but soon they noticed the existence of Zhao Chen and others! When they saw countless soldiers appearing there, the faces of the two Khitan children turned pale and their bodies trembled.

Zhao Chen waved at the two Khitan children. The two children hesitated for a while and walked towards them.

"See you soldiers!" The two Khitan children knelt down and said in a childish voice.

It's just that they are obviously very scary, and their voices are trembling, as if they are about to cry.

"Get up quickly!" Zhao Chen pulled the two of them up, both of them lowered their heads, not daring to speak any more.

"Bring two pieces of snacks and give them to them." Zhao Chen said.

Immediately, the soldiers behind took two pieces of snacks and handed them to the two Khitan children.

"Eat, eat, is it delicious?" Zhao Chen squatted down and looked at the two children, smiling.

The two children froze for a moment, and began to eat slowly. After a while, smiles appeared on their faces. This snack was brought by Zhao Chen from Yanjing Imperial Palace, it was carefully made by the imperial chef, and it tasted very good. It was the first time for these two Khitan children to eat such delicious food.

"Where is your home?" Zhao Chen asked.

"Over there!" A child pointed forward and said.

"Come on, let's go and have a look." Zhao Chen said.

*** ***

At present, the two Khitan children are leading the way, and Zhao Chen, Yu Yunwen and others follow behind.

Qian Shirong was secretly surprised, he didn't know what the emperor was going to do at the Khitan people's house? In the past month, countless Khitan people have been killed. Logically speaking, the emperor should hate the Khitan people very much. Why was he so kind to those two Khitan children just now? Not only he couldn't figure it out, but many villagers behind him couldn't figure it out.

Not long after, the crowd arrived at the home of the two Khitan children.

Zhao Chen looked forward, only to see that the courtyard here is also extremely dilapidated! Not all the Khitans are rich, many are as poor as the Han!

The walls of the yard are just some fences, there is no gate at all, just a pile of thorns in front of them, when a soldier removes the thorns, two children are already there shouting loudly!

They spoke in Khitan language, and not long after, a Khitan couple came out of it!

This Khitan couple, the man is in his thirties, and the woman looks to be in his twenties. When they saw their child, they smiled. But soon, they also saw Zhao Chen behind him. wait for someone!

At that moment, the face of the Khitan couple changed drastically, and they hurriedly fell to their knees on the ground, kowtowing continuously.

"Masters of arms, spare your life! Spare your life!" the Khitan man cried loudly. Because the number of Han people in this village far exceeds that of Khitan people, the Khitan people here can at least know a little Chinese.

"What are you doing? Get flat!" Zhao Chen said, dumbfounded.

The Khitan couple were still kneeling on the ground, not daring to get up.

"This is His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty. He came to us in person! Your Majesty wants you to be flattened, so you can be flattened." Qian Shirong stepped forward and said.

"What? Your Majesty the Emperor?" The Khitan couple were even more shocked and did not dare to get up.

In the past month, Song Jun used iron and blood methods to let all Khitan people understand that the sky has changed! Now Yanyun sixteen prefectures are dominated by the Han people! Under the rule of the Han people, the Khitan people can no longer be arrogant and domineering. On the contrary, if they make a little mistake, it will be a dead end, just like the Han people under the rule of the Liao Kingdom! They don't dare to tell whether what Qian Shirong said is true or not, and they don't know whether it is the emperor in front of them, but they just dare not get up.

Zhao Chen looked at the Khitan couple and found that they had pale faces, thin bodies, and unusually thin clothes. It seemed that their life was also very difficult.

"In a few days, when the imperial court distributes money and food to the village, they will also have a share! Also, in a short while, the imperial court will distribute land, and they cannot be missing!" Zhao Chen thought for a while and said.

Qian Shirong had a surprised expression on his face.

The surrounding villagers were also very surprised. It stands to reason that the Song army was bloodbathing Yanyun some time ago, and many Khitan people were killed. Why does Zhao Chen give them money, food and land now?

"Some time ago, when the court came to Yanyun, there were many Khitans who disobeyed the court's rule and wanted to rebel and rebel, so the court had no choice but to kill those Khitans! All those who were killed deserve what they deserve! For ordinary people , As long as you abide by the laws and regulations of the court and respect the court, the court will never make things difficult! Whether you are Han or Khitan, this is the case! Han and Khitan are the people of the Great Song Dynasty, and the court will let every commoner of the Great Song Dynasty live and work in peace and contentment!" Zhao Chen It seems that he has seen the thoughts of Qian Shirong and others, said.

"Your Majesty is merciful!" Qian Shirong couldn't believe it, but he still said it.

"Tell my words to the other Khitan people in the village, as long as they abide by the rules and laws, the imperial court will not embarrass them!" Zhao Chen said.

"Caomin remember, Caomin will tell them soon." Qian Shirong said hastily.

Zhao Chen looked at the two Khitan children. Their eyes were pure, but the weather was too cold and they had too little clothes on them. Now both of them were flushed from the cold. Zhao Chen took off his robe and put it on a child, and then asked Yu Yunwen to take off his robe and put it on another child.

Seeing that the two Khitan children were wearing the emperor's clothes, the villagers next to them showed envious expressions.

Only then did Zhao Chen leave the Khitan courtyard.

"Your Majesty, are you going to eat now?" Qian Shirong said.

"No need! I came to the people to see how the people are doing, and what can help the people, not to make you spend money! You can't eat enough, and you still want to give us food. How can it be? If the rice is ready, you can keep it for yourself! I still have to go to other places to have a look!" Zhao Chen said.

"Your Majesty, you have come here, how can you not have a meal? How can this make me feel uncomfortable?" Qian Shirong said.

"In the coming year, if you have a good harvest, you can have enough food, and you still have surplus food at home, I will definitely come!" Zhao Chen laughed.

No matter what Qian Shirong and others said, Zhao Chen did not agree to stay for dinner. He, Yu Yunwen and others mounted their horses and headed for the distance.

Qian Shirong and countless villagers watched Zhao Chen and the others leave there, knowing that Zhao Chen and the others had disappeared, they were still standing here, the Khitan couple came out of the yard at this time, came here we go.

"You two are really blessed! Your Majesty gave his clothes to your children. This is a great blessing!" Qian Shirong said.

"Is that person really His Majesty?" the Khitan man asked.

"Hmph, of course it is my Majesty Song! You can rest assured this time. Your Majesty has said that as long as the Khitans abide by the law, they will be the same as us Han! Your Majesty is merciful and treats you Khitans equally. When the land is distributed, you will also have a share." Qian Shirong said.

"What money, grain and land?" the Khitan man asked in surprise.

"Cunzheng, is what His Majesty said true or false, is it true that money, food, and land are distributed?" The rest of the villagers interrupted the Khitan man's words and said one after another.

"You are not joking, how could His Majesty's words be false? Let's just wait in the village!" Qian Shirong laughed.

The surrounding villagers whispered, but they all had pleasant smiles on their faces.
