Mandu Gule's request for a marriage was not a momentary enthusiasm, but he had already had this intention. It happened that when he was traveling in the Central Plains, he was very impressed by Princess Anle's reputation and had long admired it. In the past, boldly proposing marriage would only become a laughing stock.
, but it was different now. The people of Zhou were eager to have a relationship with the Mongols. After receiving the news, they immediately sent the princess clean and dressed up.
The deeper reason is that after careful consideration, Mandu Gule believed that the Zhou people should be given a reassurance to let them understand that they were indeed willing to form an alliance with the Zhou Dynasty to jointly deal with Yuan Feng. Since ancient times, the Central Plains regime has shown nomads that it
A good way is to get married, and you might as well follow suit.
The King of Yan sent people to urge Mandu Gule to march, but he received a letter requesting a marriage. After careful consideration, the King of Yan believed that this was a sign of the Mongols' sincerity, so he wrote a letter and returned to Beijing, strongly promoting the marriage.\
Nowadays, the emperor's desire for power is even stronger. The cabinet and the Supervisor of Ceremonies have truly become the emperor's secretariat. The core of the emperor's power is concentrated in the Yangxin Hall. The emperor forgets to sleep and eat, personally directs operations, allocates money and food, and only spends every day
After sleeping for two or three hours, the court meetings were held for five or six hours in a row. The ministers were exhausted, but the emperor was still in high spirits. This not only made the ministers and workers feel the hope of the empire's revival.
King Yan's letter was sent to the capital by water, and the emperor only needed a stick of incense to make a decision and agree to the marriage.
The emperor had already paid a huge price for the permanence of the empire, and he did not care about paying for one more daughter.
The news quickly spread to Chuxiu Palace. Princess Anle felt as if she had been struck by lightning. She did not speak for a long time. Then she rushed to the Yangxin Palace, but was stopped by the eunuch at the gate of the palace. You must know that Princess Anle entered and exited the Yangxin Palace with ease.
In Pingdi, no one dared to stop her, but now she is in such a situation. Her Royal Highness the Princess is even more heartbroken. Where is the father who loves and pampers her?
Princess Anle did not forcefully break into the Yangxin Palace, but looked at the fortified palace gate and knelt down with a plop. It was the scorching summer time, the sun was blazing in the sky, and the weather was unbearable, but no one dared to help Her Highness the Princess, so she just let her
Kneel down under the scorching sun.
A quarter of an hour has passed, half an hour has passed, two hours have passed, and the beautiful Princess Anle, who is as beautiful as a flower, gradually becomes pale and crumbling. The anxious palace maids want to come forward to help, but they are still stubborn by her.
She pushed him away and threatened, she would bite her tongue if anyone came even half a step closer!
Her Royal Highness the Princess's personality follows that of her father, and she will never give up on something she decides on.\
Zhang Waner has been kneeling like this, from morning to noon, from noon to evening, without a drop of water, not moving at all. Seeing that it was already evening, the sky suddenly changed drastically, strong winds and heavy rain roared in, and heavy drops of rain hit Yangxin.
On the stone floor in front of the palace, a gilded brass water tank was knocked loudly. Puddles of water quickly accumulated on the ground. Princess Anle was soaked all over, with her messy head stuck to her face, and she still knelt down stubbornly.
In the puddle, the palace ladies hid under the eaves of the palace and cried sadly.
The pampered, golden princess couldn't stand this kind of torture. Gradually, Zhang Waner felt dizzy and shaky, but she still gritted her teeth and persisted because she knew that this was her only chance and she would rather die to prove her ambition.
, and don’t want to marry a Tatar.\
There was a heavy rain, but the emperor still didn't show up. There is nothing more sad than a heartbroken one. Zhang Waner was so disheartened that she was about to fall down. At the moment before she fainted, an umbrella covered the sky above Zhang Waner's head. She was tall and majestic.
His figure was imprinted in her last memory, and his father finally appeared.
When Zhang Waner woke up, she was already lying in the Yangxin Hall. The air was filled with a strong smell of Chinese medicine. She turned her head slightly and saw her father's majestic figure standing upright in the hall with his back to her, admiring something.
"Wan'er, you're awake." The emperor said calmly.
Zhang Waner forced herself to get up, and then she saw that what was hanging in front of her father was not a landscape painting, but a geography map of mountains and rivers. However, it was different from what she had in mind. Many areas in this geography map were covered with mountains and rivers.
Covered in different colors.
The emperor did not turn around, but pointed to the geographical map of mountains and rivers with his finger, and described the changes on the map in slow and heavy words: "This is Shaanxi, Gansu, and Henan, which have been occupied by the rebels. Here are Hebei, Shandong, and are now occupied by the Mongols."
Control, this is Suzhou, Hangzhou and Ningbo, where banditry has been suppressed repeatedly, and here is Fujian and Guangdong, where rebellions are also emerging one after another..."
The emperor suddenly fell silent, and after a long time he said in a hoarse voice: "Wan'er, you are my daughter and the princess of Zhou Dynasty. You can choose for yourself where you want to go."
…
The word "marriage" has not appeared in the ears of the people of the Central Plains for a long time. Since the Han and Tang Dynasties, the Song Dynasty would rather pay tribute with annual coins than make peace with the barbarians. This system is also considered by the historical academic community to be a symbol of humiliation.
A manifestation of the decline of national power.\
But now the imperial court's marriage of Princess Anle to Mandu Gule, the Great Khan of Mongolia, has aroused a chorus of praise in the capital. Scholars and scholars all praised Princess Anle as Zhaojun Wencheng, and they also favored Zhou Yuan for forming a good relationship with the Qin and Jin Dynasties to jointly deal with the rebels.
The thief showed great admiration.
On the streets of the capital, in teahouses and restaurants, two men with deer-headed and mouse-like eyes, wearing scarves and scribes' robes, were discussing the benefits of marriage. One person said: "The reason why the Song Dynasty was not as strong as the Han and Tang Dynasties is because there was no marriage system, only marriage with neighbors."
Only by becoming relatives can we buy the longest peace with the least effort. Just imagine, the great Khan of the Mongolian Khitan Turks is the nephew of our emperor. How can this war be fought? So, this marriage system is Yaxian
Ah Yaksi.\"
Another person clapped his hands and praised: "What I said is very true, every sentence makes sense, but the word "Yaksi" is not the right place. This sentence is Turkic. The people who are marrying us in the Zhou Dynasty are Mongolians. It should be said that we are married to each other.
Nu is the one.”
The two of them sang together and had a great time. Everyone in the teahouse turned a deaf ear and thought it was just farting. Only a foreign student who had just arrived in Beijing slammed the table and stood up, yelling: "Shame! Sad! Send your daughter away."
To buy peace for the enemy, you just do it quietly, but you still brag about it, do you have any sense of shame or brains?"
The people around him all looked at the scholar and told him to stop talking, but he was completely unaware of it. He still sighed with emotion and vented his anger. The two people refuted them with disgrace and were speechless, and then he walked proudly.
Went out.\
As soon as he walked out of the gate, two people followed him, patted him on the shoulder, showed his badge and said: "Jinyiwei, come with us."
In order to create a harmonious situation, the Jin Yiwei had eyes and ears all over the capital, strictly prohibiting people from criticizing the marriage, and anyone who dared to talk about state affairs would be questioned. In addition, the great scholar Yang Feng also established a propaganda office and hired hundreds of pickers to work on it every day.
People talked about the benefits of marriage, the wisdom of the court, and the wisdom of the emperor at city gates, vegetable markets, teahouses and restaurants. Five copper coins were earned from each performance. For a time, idlers flocked to it, and even formed a special group called the Five Coin Party.
…
The Zhou Dynasty readily agreed to the marriage request, which surprised Mandu Gule, but the surprise was followed by great joy. Emperor Zhou could even give away his most beloved daughter without hesitation, which showed that they were at the end of their rope.
The dependence of the Mongols is higher than imagined.\
Furthermore, although Mandu Gule, who is in his twenties, is already the husband of eight women and the father of twelve children, his red palace is full of Mongolians, the so-called Mongolian beauties and flowers of the prairie.
She only takes three baths in her life, even aristocratic women are no exception. When she takes off her clothes at night, the smell is overwhelming. Mandu Gule, who was born on the grassland, doesn't care about this, but after visiting the capital, the little Mongolian prince was in Qin Tower
I had a taste of the beauties from the south of the Yangtze River in the Chu Palace, and I have never forgotten them. Just imagine, the women with fireworks are so charming, not to mention the princess who is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting.
Mandu Gule couldn't help but have wild imagination, and quickly collected a batch of gold and silver treasures as betrothal gifts and sent them to the capital. The Zhou Dynasty received the betrothal gifts and marriage certificates. Even if the marriage was settled, Princess Anle of the Great Zhou Dynasty was already the Mongolian Khan.
Dugule's legal fiancée.\
At this critical moment, without further delay, a medium-sized motorcade left the capital, crossed the Yangtze River and headed north. The motorcade was fully loaded with the dowry of Her Royal Highness, and the accompanying guards only numbered five hundred people.
In the splendid carriage, the expressionless Princess Anle sat blankly. She had not spoken since she was forced to agree to the marriage, and the heavy makeup on her face could not hide her increasingly thin and haggard face. The princess of the Zhou Dynasty
The princess never thought that her marriage would end like this. The talented No. 1 scholar or the brave and dashing young general were all mere dreams. In the end, she would end up spending the rest of her life with a man she had never met before.
, spent time together with the foul-smelling, rough and fierce Mongolian Tatars.
This is the fate of being born into an emperor's family. Girls from ordinary families may elope or commit suicide to fight their fate. However, as a married princess, every move, word and deed of her own may bring disaster to the people of the country. At this time
Zhang Waner is no longer Zhang Waner, she is just the princess of Dazhou, a girl who dedicated her life to her father and the happiness of the people.
The motorcade was traveling in the vast wilderness, with wild flowers blooming outside the window. It was green. Next to the ancient road, under the willow trees, white old farmers were selling cucumbers. In the pond, big buffaloes were playing in the water, and shepherd boys were playing flutes with lotus leaves on their heads. It was a pastoral scene.
, seeing this scene, Zhang Waner couldn't help but feel that her decision was the right one.
Suddenly, dust and smoke billowed up in the distance, and the imperial military captain who was escorting Heqin's team shouted: "There is a thief attacking, the whole army is on alert!"
A moment later, a large group of cavalry roared in. The imperial guards were defeated and retreated hastily. The accompanying Mongolian envoy kept fighting, but was still knocked off his horse and passed out.
The panic-stricken Princess Anle hid in the carriage and shivered. Her ears were filled with wild yells and the neighing of war horses. She quietly lifted the corner of the curtain and looked over, only to see the words "
