"Marry Princess Chengde or Princess Xingqing to Li Yan, and then cede part of the territory to Li Yan."

As soon as Jin Fuzhe said this, Jiang Hao immediately shouted: "Jin Fuzhe! How dare you ask the king to cede the territory? What are your intentions?"

Jin Fuzhe didn't speak.

Seeing that Jin Fuzhe didn't speak, Jin Fushi's heart tightened, and then he looked at Jin Fuzhe and asked, "Do you want to surrender?"

Jin Fuzhe was silent for a while, and then said noncommittally: "According to what I said, Goryeo may still be able to keep half of the country, otherwise..."

Jin Fushi sternly said, "Answer me, do you want to surrender?"

Jin Fuzhe was silent for a while, then looked at Jin Fushi, and said: "When I was first caught, I was waiting every day for Korea to send an army to rescue me, but what I was waiting for was the booming development of Jeju Island. But they keep growing. Do you know that in the first few months they only had [-] soldiers on Jeju Island, [-] were brave, and [-] were guaranteed to win. I guess they didn’t have thousands of soldiers at that time. At that time...forget it, it’s meaningless to say these things now.” After a pause, Jin Fuzhe said: “Korea’s defeat is too complete this time, I’m not optimistic about the future of Goryeo, I want to do things, I want to learn I want to use it, I want to leave a name for future generations, I don’t want to be a prisoner for the rest of my life... Marry Princess Chengde or Princess Xingqing to Li Yan, and then cede part of the territory to Li Yan, this is the only way out of Goryeo I can think of, as for listening If you don’t listen, it’s entirely up to you.”

Jin Fuzhe was extremely happy to speak out what was in his heart—Jin Fuzhe could see that Li Yan still admired him very much, as long as he worked, he would definitely be reused, although after joining Li Yan, his character would inevitably be compromised , But who cares, at least he can display his ambitions in his life, it's better than being a prisoner for a lifetime.

After finishing speaking, Jin Fuzhe nodded at Jin Fushi, then turned and left.

After Jin Fuzhe left, Jiang Hao couldn't help asking Jin Fushi: "Master Jin, what your brother said..."

Jin Fushi said: "It's easy to talk about marrying a princess, ceding the territory... It's not something you and I can talk about."

Not bad.

Relying on women to retain the dynasty and retain the rule is acceptable to the nobles of Korea, and it is also what the nobles of Korea want to see most in this case, and the cession of the territory will make those nobles of Korea lose their place to rule and the nobles of Korea. The land is absolutely unacceptable to them.

In order to preserve the dynasty, the rule, and this land where they can be happy and happy, they even sacrificed all the women in Goryeo.

This is not black goryeo.

Do you think that Jin destroyed Liao and Northern Song, Mongolia also destroyed Jin, Xixia, Southern Song and European countries, how did Goryeo survive? It actually survived by women.

When Jin was strong, Goryeo presented beauties to Jin Jin.

When Meng Yuan was strong, Goryeo presented beauties to Meng Yuan.

From the establishment of Jin to the joint destruction of Jin by Mongolia and the Southern Song Dynasty in 110, Goryeo sent envoys to Jin 190 four times, each time offering a large number of beauties.

However, this is still back and forth, because Jin also sent envoys to Korea many times.

When the Meng Yuan was strong, then Goryeo was purely selfless.

At that time, the high-ranking officials in the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties all compared the number of female slaves they owned with the quality. Those who had fewer female slaves and poor quality were often laughed at.

Therefore, Meng Yuan kept asking Goryeo for women.

Emperor Shizu of the Yuan Dynasty even ordered that the first daughters of Goryeo must first report to the government for registration, otherwise they would not be able to marry.

Under the pressure of Meng Yuan, the Koryo royal court ordered that women over 13 and under 16 years old in the whole country should not marry without authorization, so that they could be selected by the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty first.

The result of this is that Goryeo gave birth to a daughter and often kept it secret, even the neighbors would not let it know, in case they were sent to the Yuan Dynasty by the government.

(In fact, the result of giving birth to a son is not necessarily good, or even worse, because the Yuan Dynasty also needed a large number of eunuchs, and Korean eunuchs were especially popular. Is the reason? Da Bird doesn’t know.)
But even if Goryeo was extremely cooperative, it could not meet the needs of Mongolian Yuan for Goryeo women, because in addition to the need for Goryeo women as concubines, concubines or maidservants by the Emperor Mengyuan and princes and ministers, the Yuan Dynasty also needed a large number of women to ration soldiers as spouses.

Therefore, Goryeo specially set up a marriage prison and a widow's first daughter to test other prisons for this purpose. In addition to the first daughter, they also searched for married women and orphans, wives of rebels, monks' daughters, and criminals' wives and daughters, etc., to satisfy the Mongols. needs.

The daughters of the royal family and high-ranking officials in Goryeo are even more proud to present them to Emperor Meng Yuan or princes and ministers.

While this may seem shameless, you have to say, it actually works.

Through one marriage and one gift, Goryeo relied on women to survive under the iron heel of Meng Yuan.

Moreover, the in-law relationship between the two families has become closer, so that although the emperors of the Yuan Dynasty changed a lot, and several of the emperor's families were still hostile to each other, their relationship with Goryeo has always been very close.

(Later, the demise of the Yuan Dynasty was also related to a Goryeo woman and a Goryeo eunuch.)
In addition, at the end of the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties, the 20 troops of Mr. Guan, Potou Pan, and Sha Liu of the Red Scarf Army attacked Goryeo. The two armies fought in Anzhou, and the Koryo Army was defeated. Immediately bribed the generals and soldiers of the Red Scarf Army with a large number of women to make them intoxicated in the gentle countryside. When the soldiers of the Red Scarf Army were having fun in the Koryo King City, Koryo sent a large army to defeat the Red Turban Army.

Therefore, Goryeo's women's politics is very powerful.

Not long after, Zheng Keyong was also sent to stay with Jin Fushi and Jiang Hao.

The three of them didn't speak, and while they were waiting for the result of the Liangshan army's attack on the palace, they were thinking about their own concerns.

I do not know how long it has been.

"boom!"

At the same time as there was a loud bang, Jin Fushi, Zheng Keyong, and Jiang Hao felt the ground shake!
"What sound?" Jiang Hao asked subconsciously.

No one answered Jiang Hao.

After a while, someone suddenly came to inform Jin Fushi, Zheng Keyong, and Jiang Hao: "Your palace has been breached by us, and it is now finishing up. The village master asked me to inform you that you can return to your master, and then Discuss with your master how to welcome his old man."

Zheng Keyong knew that Li Yan's words were mainly for him, so he got up and walked out without saying a word.

Jin Fushi and Jiang Hao's speed is not slow. Zheng Keyong just went out with his front foot, and they followed with his back foot.

The three found their respective horses, and then beat them back to the palace.

There was still some distance from the palace, and they saw a section of the palace wall disappearing.

Across that section of the palace wall, there was a place of corpses—the corpse of Wang Yu's last general who relied on the Qianniu Guard.

After a quick look, there are no less than a thousand corpses there, and it is estimated that Qianniuwei should also exist in name only.

When the three of Jin Fushi arrived at the palace, someone had already started cleaning the palace.

Obviously, the Goryeo side specified that they were not in the mood at this time, and the only one who was in the mood was that King Li Yan.

Jin Fushi, Zheng Keyong, and Jiang Hao all felt a sense of humiliation in their hearts, "Li Yan really wants to live in the palace, otherwise it would be impossible to send someone to clean it up!"
