When I went to Beijing, it was still snowing.
The city wall here was built after the destruction of the Liao Dynasty and before the attack on the Song Dynasty.
The whole is an "L"-shaped connected north and south city. The north city is a vertical rectangle, and the south city is a horizontal rectangle - the total circumference is 11 kilometers.
The Imperial City is located in the upper left corner of the south city. It was built to imitate the Bianliang Imperial City and houses a five-story palace.
At that time, in order to carry out large-scale construction projects, many craftsmen and people were forcibly moved in, half of whom came from inside and outside Yanjing City.
The Jin people did not squeeze many nobles and wealthy households from the Liao Kingdom to death, but moved them here to open shops and do business. There were also many Bohai noble families who separated their families and came to build houses and settle down, integrating into the social system of the Jin Kingdom in Beijing.
In fact, locating the Anton Protectorate here is not as troublesome as Ju Ming thought.
Because in the Shangjing City of the Jin Kingdom, Chinese and Khitan were the mainstream languages, and Jurchen was just the official ruling language.
Even the Jurchen nobles who have lived in Beijing for a long time can all speak Chinese fluently.
Even because there are a large number of educated Han, Khitan and Bohai people living in the city, Confucianism has developed rapidly in recent years. The three generations of Jurchen nobles have studied Confucian classics one after another, and there are many who are good at poetry and painting.
Instead, it’s Jurchen writing. Not many people understand that stuff!
Within the imperial city, the great dynasty will gather.
Wu Qimai said: "Starting from next year, the Bojilie system will be abolished. Why is the national fortune of our country declining? Why did the Liao and Song Dynasties perish one after another? It is all because of poor systems. We should follow the Ming system and set up a cabinet and a Tongzheng Yuan.
, the Privy Council, the Supervisory Council and the six ministries. The reason why the Ming Dynasty was strong is because of the cabinet system. As long as we learn from the Ming Dynasty and adopt the cabinet system, we can gradually restore our national strength!"
"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"
A group of Han and Bohai civil servants suddenly shouted in unison.
These guys still want to continue to bet on both ends. Some tribesmen will serve as officials in the Jin Kingdom, while other tribesmen will serve as officials in the Ming Dynasty.
If the Jin Dynasty adopts the cabinet system, it is difficult to say whether it can restore its national strength, but they, the civil servants, will definitely have more real power.
Wu Qimai is wooing civil servants and winning people's hearts!
At the same time, reforms can also be used to regain power and put the finances and military in the hands of the emperor.
Of course, if the Ming Dynasty was determined to destroy the Jin Kingdom, the civil servants of all ethnic groups would turn to the Ming Dynasty without hesitation.
Jin Wushu couldn't help but said: "Reforming the imperial system is a matter for the future. The Ming army was two hundred miles away, and they didn't come because of the heavy snow. Now we should discuss how to protect the country Zuo. If even the great Jin Kingdom Zuo can't be saved, how can we still protect it?"
What are you talking about reforming the system?”
Wu Qimai said: "Even including the palace guards, there are only three to four thousand remaining soldiers in Beijing, and there is still a lack of military food supplies. It is impossible to defeat the Ming army. The only way to go is to negotiate a peace."
Wanyan Zongxian asked: "How are the peace talks going?"
Wu Qimai said: "It went very smoothly. The Emperor of Ming Dynasty is willing to marry Princess Yiguo, and the marriage between the two countries will be long-lasting in the future."
"Your Majesty, you must beware of deceit," Wanyan Zongqiang reminded, "The southern thieves have always been cunning. Perhaps they were blocked by heavy snow and deliberately delayed the peace talks, and then suddenly came to kill them at the beginning of spring."
"I know what I know," Wu Qimai said, changing the subject. "Today's court meeting will discuss another major event. That is, the rebellion case of Oben (Wanyan Zongqian) and Nianhan (Wanyan Zonghan)!"
The Jurchen nobles all changed their expressions.
Po Luhuo advised: "Your Majesty, the rebellion case has been investigated long ago. Now that foreign enemies are watching, we can no longer implicate it."
Wu Qimai said angrily: "It is certain that the two of them rebelled. They dared to falsely accuse the emperor of stealing the treasury, and even dragged the emperor out to beat him up. He is disrespectful and will be punished for his crime! In this palace, there are still them.
The remnants of the two!"
The Jurchen nobles were even more frightened and turned their heads around to observe.
Wu Qimai pointed at Li Shi: "You tell me."
Li Shi held the wat tablet and went out: "I left the court at that time and saw Wu Shu and O Ben whispering. They thought that I didn't understand the Jurchen dialect, so they had no defense. After I approached, the two of them were still conspiring loudly.
.”
"What are they plotting?" Wu Qimai asked.
Li Shi said: "They conspired to poison His Majesty and let Taizu's eldest grandson succeed him."
"Nonsense!"
Jin Wushu was furious on the spot: "I only get close to Nian Liduo (Zong Fu), and I am neither a party to Aoben (Zong Qian) nor a party to Nian Han (Zong Han). I helped plot to poison the emperor."
, even if it succeeds, what good will it do to me?"
Li Shi said: "Of course you want to be a marshal."
"What evidence do you have?" Jin Wushu asked.
Li Shi said: "I heard it with my own ears."
Jin Wushu sneered: "That means there is no evidence!"
Wu Qimai said: "Drag me down and I will interrogate you."
"Your Majesty," Wanyan Zongxian stood up, "There are not many veteran generals who can lead troops in battle. How can we repel the Ming army if we continue to kill them?"
Wu Qimai said: "It was just an interrogation. I didn't say we must kill him."
Jin Wushu was so angry that he pointed at Wu Qimai and said: "You confuse right and wrong, do not distinguish between right and wrong, and are good at killing generals. Just wait until you die and the country is destroyed!"
Wanyan Zongpan shouted: "You roared in the court and cursed the Emperor of Jin. For these crimes alone, you should be punished with death."
Wu Qimai waved his hand and said: "Detain him for interrogation."
That night, Li Shi came to the cell with a few cruel officials and sent away all the guards who were watching the deposit.
Jin Wushu said angrily: "Ask immediately if you want to be tried. I am not treasonous, and I am not of the same party as the two of them."
Li Shi sat down, took out a pen and paper, and read while writing: "Wushu said that he colluded with Onben and used poison to murder His Majesty the Jin Emperor..."
Jin Wushu said anxiously: "I didn't say it, don't write it randomly!"
Li Shi continued to write rapidly, recording Jin Wushu's crimes one after another.
After a long time, Li Shi finally finished writing and said to Jin Wushu: "Let's mark it."
"Thief, don't even think about it!" Jin Wushu scolded angrily.
Li Shi said nothing more, but winked at a few cruel officials.
They opened the brass lock of the cell door, and one of them was holding a rope.
Jin Wushu's hands were tied behind his back. At this moment, he realized something was wrong and immediately pushed forward hard.
One of the cruel officials was knocked over by him, and the other reached out to grab him, but Jin Wushu broke free. Jin Wushu rushed out of the cell, and another cruel official suddenly stretched out his leg, tripping Jin Wushu to the ground.
All the cruel officials came over and held Jin Wushu down like a pig.
Jin Wushu roared angrily: "The sky is clear, the sky is clear, I am not treason!"
The cool official holding the rope put his knees against Jin Wushu's vest, knelt down and used the rope to tighten Jin Wushu's neck.
Jin Wushu struggled for a while and finally stopped.
Li Shi stretched out his hand and found that he was no longer breathing. So he took out the ink pad, untied the rope that bound Jin Wushu's hands, and marked the crimes he had just recorded.
Li Shi glanced at the cell and said to several cruel officials: "Wushu untied the rope by himself and committed suicide because of fear of crime."
The cruel officials understood and hung up Jin Wushu.
The next day, news came out that Jin Wushu had committed suicide out of fear of crime, and the subsequent political storm had just begun.
Shi family.
Shi Liai looked at the officers who broke in and asked in horror: "What are you going to do?"
The officer in charge of leading the team said: "Wu Shu has already confessed you, and the Shi family is also plotting a rebellion!"
"My Shi family is loyal to Dajin, how could we rebel?" Shi gradually rushed to the courtyard excitedly.
"Whether there is treason or not, we will know after a trial. Arrest him!" the officer shouted.
Shi Jian suddenly came back to his senses: "I must have had my ears cut off by the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty. They thought I had offended the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty. I didn't. The two countries were at war at the time, and I was just a messenger... Let me go,
Let me go!"
Shi Liai had already calmed down, and said in frustration: "Don't ask them again. They harm the loyal and the good, betray the country for glory, and Dajin will perish!"
While Wu Qimai killed the men of the Shi family, he also promoted the in-laws of the Shi family. In this way, he could prevent everyone from being in danger and quickly stabilize the storm.
…
Yang family.
Aguda's number one strategist, Yang Pu, was so ill that he was completely dead.
He called his son to the bedside and after hearing what happened recently, he warned: "Killing Wushu will demoralize the army. When he kills him, he will make love, and the civil servants will also be heartbroken. The fall of the Jin Kingdom is imminent, so you should not participate in any fights, etc."
Just go out of the city at the beginning of spring and kneel down to greet the Ming army."
The son asked: "We really can't negotiate peace?"
Yang Pu tried his best and could only manage to utter a voice: "That Emperor Zhu of the Ming Dynasty is an outstanding figure. How can he tolerate the existence of the Jin Kingdom? With the strength of the Ming army, Xixia will be destroyed sooner or later, and he may even regain the Western Regions.
.What a pity. If I could be twenty years younger, I would help Emperor Zhu with all my heart."
"He wants to be Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty?" the son asked in surprise.
Yang Pu stopped talking and shook his fingers to let his son leave.
He probably won't be able to survive this year's cold winter, and now he just wants to get rid of the physical pain as soon as possible.
He helped Aguda establish the Kingdom of Jin, and now he died with the Kingdom of Jin.
…
A large cart of heads was dragged on a sled to see Ma Kuo.
Ma Kuo was also very familiar with Jin Wushu. He looked at the head in front of him and reached out to close Jin Wushu's eyelids.
Quite emotional!
Li Shi, who was showing off his power in Beijing, turned into a dog when he saw Ma Kuo. He knelt down and asked: "If the angel has any other requests, you might as well tell them all."
Ma Kuo no longer looked at the heads: "First, the historical materials of the Liao Kingdom must be sealed and kept for safekeeping; second, Wu Qimai must die!"
Li Shi was shocked when he heard this: "This, this, this..."
Although Wanyan Zonggu was scared, he was also angry and said: "If you don't want peace talks, just say so. Why do you need to say this?"
Ma Kuo smiled and said to Wanyan Zonggu: "Your father is dead, your brother can still succeed. Of course your father also killed countless Han people, but your brother has never been on the battlefield. Your brother's hands are clean."
Yes! After you go back, you can hide it from your father and discuss it with your brother."
Wanyan Zonggu was stunned on the spot.
Ma Kuo said to Li Shi again: "How come the escaped Song Dynasty empress dowager, emperor, and those traitorous officials of the fake Song Dynasty were not sent?"
Li Shi quickly replied: "I will send them immediately after the peace talks. I thought that His Majesty the Ming Emperor might have to live, so I did not dare to kill them without permission."
"It's very thoughtful." Ma Kuo chuckled.
