The Jin army besieged the city, and the Song emperor’s daughter died

Xingqingfu, the capital of Xixia.

In a side hall of Yuanhao Summer Palace.

Li Renai, the prince of Xixia, who was supposed to have died of grief and anger in the seventh year of Yuande of Xixia and the seventh year of Xuanhe of Song Dynasty, was lying on the bed with an expressionless face, staring at the beams in a daze.

Sitting in front of the desk on the other side of the hall was an old lady in coarse linen clothes.

Although his clothes are old, his temperament is graceful.

Two years of confinement made her look pale.

She is Queen Yelu Nanxian of Xixia.

According to the history books of Zhao Fujin's previous life, this woman should also have died in the seventh year of Yuande. The cause of death was that after Prince Li Renai died of grief and anger, she went on a hunger strike for many days and took her own life.

As for why Li Renai was worried and angry, some people in later generations explained that as the grandson of Emperor Zuo of Liao, he couldn't bear to see his grandfather fleeing like a grandson, so he asked his father Li Qianshun as the prince to send troops to help his grandfather.

Li Qianshun actually sent [-] elite cavalry to stop the Jin army at first.

It's a pity that after Wanyan Loushi led a thousand people to break through the thirty thousand elite cavalry, Li Qianshun was beaten into depression, completely ruined, and gave up.

Li Renai died of grief and anger.

What a touching family story.

However, Zhao Fujin never believed in family ties or love in a political marriage, let alone blood ties in an imperial family.

She herself is a living example.

Moreover, Yelu Nanxian has no direct relationship with Emperor Liao Zuo. She is just a daughter of the Liao royal family. How could Emperor Liao Zuo marry his own princess to a small Kalami like Xixia?

Therefore, Li Renai cannot be the grandson of Emperor Zuo of Liao.

Since he had no close blood relationship with the fallen Liao Dynasty, how could he be worried and angry about becoming the grandson of Emperor Zuo of Liao Dynasty?

What he is really worried about is his position as prince!

The mother, Yelu Nanxian, was the tool for marriage between Liao and Xia. Even if she was not the biological child of Emperor Zuo of Liao, the whole Liao was behind her.

Therefore, before the fall of the Liao Kingdom, the husband and wife were loving, the father was kind and the son was filial, and even the position of prince had long been given to him.

But Daliao is about to perish!

After the fall of Liao Dynasty, his mother's power collapsed, and he could no longer rely on his mother to sit on the throne of the prince.

Otherwise, as luck would have it, when the Liao Dynasty was over, Li Qianshun's concubine Cao gave birth to a son, named Li Renxiao.

Look at his name: Renxiao!

In Li Qianshun's eyes, this is the son who will provide for him with filial piety and inherit the throne of Xixia!

So how could Li Renai not be worried and angry, and how could he not think of doing everything he could to help Daliao.

Li Qianshun was annoyed by the noise, so he imprisoned Li Renai.

Seeing her son suffer, the mother couldn't bear it, so she was willing to accompany her son to suffer. She moved out of the palace and came to this summer palace to sit on the bench for two years.

The initial idea of ​​Emperor Xixia Li Qianshun was that if the Liao Dynasty fell and the Song Dynasty was swallowed up by the Jin Kingdom, then there would be no need to keep the mother and son. At that time, a story that conforms to Confucian teachings should be told to the outside world. According to a historical record, It can also be considered as a posthumous name for the mother and son.

As for the senior officials of the Jin Kingdom, whether they believe this story or not, they will all think that Li Qianshun is trading names.

In this way, this little brother can continue to be a leader.

As long as you give benefits, who should you take credit for?

But just when he was about to attack the mother and son, Yao Pingzhong came.

He also brought a piece of news: Wanyan Zongwang Moutuogang was besieged, and the Song Dynasty had no interest in the Jin Dynasty. Not only that, it also wanted to use Yelu Dashi as a way to flank the Jin army.

Li Qianshun continued to keep the mother and son, and waited to see how the situation would change.

What happened next made Li Qianshun even more confused.

Yelu Yuliyan, who was also a princess of the Liao Kingdom, took command and defeated Yan Zongwang, and even killed the forward general.

Not only that, she was also worthy of being a sister of the official family of the Song Dynasty, and she was very prosperous in Kaifeng city.

How to start?

What if the Song Dynasty helps Yelu Yuliyan to restore the country one day? When Yelu Yuliyan inspects the clan, he remembers that he has a sister of the same race who is the queen of Xixia...

How else to make up this story?

Li Qianshun, who received the letter of credence from the Song Dynasty, discussed with the officials that the money should be taken with him.

The Song Dynasty invaded Huining Prefecture in less than two years. Even Wanyan Loushi, who could be used to scare children from crying in Xixia, knelt down in Kaifeng City and was untouchable. rise!

"Your Majesty, the envoy who comes to the Song Dynasty to congratulate you can only be the King of Jin. Others are not qualified."

In the hall, a minister played a sermon.

Li Qianshun nodded: "That's natural. The second prince of the Jin Kingdom, Wanyan Zongwang, went to congratulate him. Naturally, we can't treat him lightly. But... the Song Dynasty's official document also invites the children of the royal family to come. Who will go?"

There was silence in the hall.

Li Qianshun did not care about farming.

Apart from the crown prince Li Renai, there is also the second prince Li Renxiao.

But now Li Renxiao is still a baby under three years old...

"Your Majesty, who is the letter that comes with the credentials written to?" Jin King Richard asked.

"This is a letter from home! I'll go and deliver it myself!" Li Qianshun stood up and pointed at Brother Richard: "Prince Jin, please discuss and see what etiquette is needed."

The Summer Palace is located more than ten miles west of the Xixia Palace.

Along the way, Li Qianshun had already thought of his words.

In a side hall at the back of the Summer Palace, Li Ganshun rushed in with tears in his eyes, shouting as he walked: "Queen, Queen! I have wronged you in the past two years!"

Yelu Nanxian, who was working as a female celebrity in front of the case, was stunned for a moment, and then slowly stood up. He wanted to salute Li Qianshun and say hello, but as soon as he put down the work in his hands, before he could bow down, he was pulled into his arms by Li Qianshun: "Nan Xian, I miss you!"

A trace of imperceptible disgust flashed through Yelu Nanxian, and after only half a moment, he raised his head affectionately: "Your Majesty, I have taken good care of the prince for your Majesty in the past two years."

Li Qianshun wiped away his tears and looked at the prince Li Renai who was bowing aside: "Son, the reason why you are a father is to hone your character. We are a small country in Xixia and the people are weak and cannot play with our temper. It wasn't back then. As a father, I will not save the Yelu family, but wait for the times to change."

The family of three happily strolled in the summer palace, and Li Qianshun recounted the events of the past two years.

"When Yao Pingzhong of the Song Dynasty came to see me, I knew that the opportunity had come and gave way to Yelu Dashi without saying a word."

"Father, has Yelu Dashi ever avenged his country?" Prince Li Renai was a little excited.

"Ahem...it's still an honor to lose."

Li Renai was stunned: "Defeated? That gold thief..."

"Things are no longer what they used to be. Generals such as Wanyan Zonghan, Wanyan Loushi, and Wanyan Yinshuke all fell under the gates of Kaifeng in the Song Dynasty. Moreover, the Song Dynasty sent out surprise troops to directly attack Huining Mansion..."

"The Kingdom of Jin is dead?"

"That's not true, but now it has become a vassal of the Song Dynasty, and the power it had back then is long gone." Li Qianshun stroked his beard and said with a smile.

Li Renai frowned: "Then we Xixia and the Song Dynasty have been fighting for many years and have accumulated grudges for a long time. What should we do?"

Li Qianshun laughed and patted Li Renai on the shoulder: "That was in the past. Now your aunt Yelu Yuliyan is a figure in the Song Dynasty. I heard that she even took the surname of the Song Dynasty. She has such a blood relationship. We, Xixia and Song Dynasty, are just relatives, so how can we have any grudges?"

With that said, Li Qianshun took out a letter from his arms, held it in his hand and handed it to Yelu Nanxian: "Queen, this letter is written by Yelu Yuliyan to you. It is rare. Nowadays, the royal family of Liao Kingdom , you sisters are the only ones left, please move around more in the future."

After taking Yelu Nanxian and the prince back to the palace, Li Qianshun took advantage of the free time to change and clean up, and went to Cao Fei's palace again: "This time I go to the Song Dynasty to celebrate the gifts, let Renai go, I am doing this for you Mother and son have to consider whether they are enemies or friends of the Song Dynasty."

Concubine Cao burst into tears of gratitude.

She comes from a womanly family and doesn't know what the Song Dynasty is like.

But she knew that a person who could press the golden man to the ground and rub him must be a more terrifying existence than the golden man.

Just stay away from such people, your home is still safe!

…    …

In Longde Palace, the living treasure father and son stood upright, rubbing their little hands awkwardly in the sleeves of their robes.

Seeing Zhao Fujin clasping his hands behind his back and looking around the hall, he didn't even dare to utter a breath.

"Fujin, you are so busy with state affairs on weekdays, so there is no need to come to see dad." Emperor Daojun couldn't help but say.

"That's right, sister, you're busy with your work, I'll just stay with dad, hehe, hehehe..." King Bi also followed with a silly smile.

Zhao Fujin ignored them. After walking around in a circle, he sat down in front of the table and nodded: "Do you know you are wrong?"

The father and son were stunned and looked at each other.

Then he fell to his knees with a plop and cried loudly: "Sister, that incident has nothing to do with me. You really wronged me!"

"Huh?" Zhao Fujin raised his voice and looked down at the king: "Then I will let you stay for another half a year to continue to reflect and reflect?"

King Bi stopped his howling: "I know I'm wrong! I know I'm wrong!"

"What's wrong?"

"Wrong... The mistake is that I shouldn't be fooling around with my father. Sister, brother, I swear that I will never come to Longde Palace again. Please let me go back to the palace. If I don't go back, Zhu Lian will have to follow me. Reconciliation..."

Zhao Fujin looked at the King of Forces who was kneeling in front of him with a look of surprise, and then looked at the Emperor Daojun who was standing aside with a look of surprise: "Dad? Look at your son, are you talking humanly? I won't do it again in the future." You’ve come to Longdeok Palace and you’re not filial? You’re being treasonous!”

Emperor Daojun, who was originally angry at King Bi's words, blew his beard and glared. When he heard what Zhao Fujin said, he no longer had to suppress his anger and kicked King Bi on the shoulder: "I'll kill you, you idiot!" My wife has forgotten my father? How could I give birth to such a useless thing like you!"

While scolding the king, he also did not forget to pat Zhao Fujin's horse: "If your sister hadn't had the foresight to take over the ancestral country for me, if this country had been handed over to you, my old Zhao family would be in chaos now. "

Well...it's not just a mess, it's simply a complete destruction!

Zhao Fujin saw that the two men were almost hurting each other, and then he raised his hand: "Okay. I'm here this time, and I have three things to tell daddy."

After hearing Zhao Fujin speak, the two men calmed down.

Emperor Daojun sneered and said, "I know about Huan Huan's wedding, right?"

Zhao Fujin nodded: "Well, Huanhuan and Gao Chong are getting married. The day chosen by Si Tianjian is May [-]th. I originally wanted to issue a decree to grant the marriage, but after much thought, I still feel that my parents are here and should not overstep. Dad has to come to decree the marriage."

Emperor Daojun nodded repeatedly: "It should be true. When dad saw Gao Chong a few days ago, he liked him very much. He was young and promising, and had great military exploits. Especially this child... this child... has a pure character and a talented person. , she speaks well and is a good match for Huan Huan."

"Well, it's just that there was a little misunderstanding between the two children because of Zhang Jun. Although the misunderstanding has been cleared up, Gao Chong's mother can't save her face."

Zhao Fujin paused and smiled: "I am too embarrassed to mediate in such matters, so I have to help my father."

When Emperor Daojun heard this, he remembered that in folk marriages, there were some small frictions between the in-laws and the in-laws, which were usually mediated by a matchmaker.

Why not find the purple matchmaker instead of yourself?

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation!

But even so, Emperor Daojun did not dare to shirk and could only accept it.

"The second thing is that I have given letters of credence to the Jin Kingdom, Xixia, and Dali, and invited them to send envoys to Kaifeng to watch the ceremony. By the way, I can tell the story of the Song Dynasty and promote the culture of the Song Dynasty. Over there in Dali Kingdom I have returned home and hope to see you, daddy."

"See me?" Emperor Daojun looked confused.

He thought to himself that he had been in office for ten years and had only had casual acquaintances with the Dali Kingdom. Why should he meet him if they were not in conflict with each other?

"Hum, dad's calligraphy and painting are famous all over the world. Not only now, but even in thousands of years, they will be praised by others. Since we want to promote the culture of the Song Dynasty, dad, you can be my cultural benchmark of the Song Dynasty. It’s normal for people to want to meet you.”

Zhao Fujin's words made Emperor Daojun feel happy. When it came to calligraphy and painting, Emperor Daojun was quite confident.

If he hadn't gone astray and become an emperor.

The name Zhao Ji will leave a deep mark in the history of Chinese culture.

"Then it's all up to my daughter's arrangements. If you need dad to prepare anything in advance, you can tell dad at any time. By the way, can you just see me?"

Zhao Fujin shook his head: "That's not the case, there are also poets."

Emperor Daojun said, "Oh, Li Bangyan."

Zhao Fujin was stunned for a moment, and then said in disgust: "Him? Forget it, how can obscene words and songs be on the stage!"

Emperor Daojun thought the same thing. To promote the culture of the Song Dynasty, Li Bangyan really couldn't be on the stage: "Hey, it's a pity that another Bangyan passed away many years ago..."

Before Emperor Daojun finished speaking, Zhao Fujin suddenly thought of something. His face instantly changed to a look of eating melon, and he turned sideways and asked: "Dad, the horse is slippery and frosty, so why don't you leave? It's just a journey with few people." ', was it really Zhou Bangyan who climbed out of bed and wrote it?"

Emperor Daojun:...

"Ahem, what are you going to do about the poets' affairs?" Emperor Daojun's expression had betrayed him.

Zhao Fujin smiled proudly: "Hahaha, you are as romantic as your father. As for the poet, I have informed Qingzhou and asked them to give me the most talented woman in history to come to Kaifeng."

"The most talented woman of all time?" Emperor Daojun was stunned: "Who is it? Why don't I know?"

"Oh...Li Qingzhao!"

"Li Gefei's daughter?"

Zhao Fujin nodded: "I must have heard of it, right?"

"I've never heard of this before! This woman is good at trolling people!"

Zhao Fujin burst out laughing, and the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became relaxed: "Dad, there is one more thing. I need you to draw a picture. I am going to give it to various countries as a national gift."

"Painted Crane?"

"No! Draw this!"

As Zhao Fujin spoke, he took out a receipt and handed it to Emperor Daojun.

Emperor Daojun unfolded it, frowned, and said with an embarrassed smile: "Fujin, what's your painting method?"

Zhao Fujin glanced at his mouth and said, "Don't you appreciate it?"

Painting works are evaluated in four categories: spirit, wonder, energy, and ease.

Emperor Daojun didn't know how to criticize even if he wanted to flatter him.

"Oh, my painting has already surpassed the fourth level." Zhao Fujin chuckled.

"Oh? In addition to the four grades of Shen, Miao, Neng and Yi, is there another grade?" Emperor Daojun was curious.

Zhao Fujin snorted unconvinced: "Man..."

Before he finished speaking, Emperor Daojun immediately answered: "Manpin?"

"Ah? Dad, what are you talking about?"

"Wonderful! The diffuse, flowing vertically and horizontally, with no square or circle, is exactly the brushwork of this painting; the diffuse, like the overflowing water, the sea of ​​clouds swept by the wind, unfettered, free and easy, is exactly the artistic conception of this painting. Such Paintings, called comics, are actually..."

Seeing Emperor Daojun talking nonsense in a serious manner, Zhao Fujin was a little embarrassed: "Dad, can we stop praising you so hard? This thing is called comics. I'm not good at learning and the drawings are ugly."

"Comics? Who are you studying under, Fujin?"

"emmmm... Akira Toriyama!"

"Don't lie to daddy. There is a person named Wu in "One Hundred Family Surnames", but there is no one named Bird!"

Zhao Fujin was amused by Emperor Daojun. He pointed at the manuscript and said, "Dad, just use your own techniques to draw this picture. Draw a few more!"

Emperor Daojun sighed: "This painting doesn't look like a crane, does it?"

"It's not a crane, it's a picture of a rooster! I'm going to send the painting and the new Kanyu map as a national gift. Don't ask for details. After the painting is completed, you can leave the palace."

After Zhao Fujin left, Wang Bi, who had been beaten, tried to regain some face: "Dad, my sister asked you to draw a chicken? Isn't this a bit indecent?"

"Pah!" Another slap landed firmly on Wang Wang's face: "Go away, don't disturb me while I'm painting!" (End of this chapter)
