Nothing happened that night. The huge autumn hunting team set off from Xinghua and continued northward along the Luanhe River, but stopped for a while in the wilderness between the upper reaches of the Luanhe River and the upper reaches of the Luoma River... This is a natural hunting ground, and the prey is in a
The fattest stage of the year.
Therefore, a massive hunt was launched on the spot as a matter of course, making this autumn hunting event worthy of the name and also raising everyone's emotions to a higher level.
On that day, the fifteen-year-old Emperor Wanyan of Jin Dynasty came out with his horse and took the lead in shooting the sky with his bow, thus kicking off the great hunt.
Under the leadership of the leader of the country, the civil and military ministers and tribal dignitaries also enthusiastically joined forces... Needless to say, those officials from ethnic minority groups who were originally fishermen and hunters. Even Qin Xianggong, deputy envoy of the Privy Council, was hit by an arrow.
, shot a weasel in front of the emperor, which attracted public praise from the king Wanyan Hela.
However, the real climax of the hunt occurred in the evening of the third day.
That evening, everyone checked the prey and were shocked to find that the fifteen-year-old king Wanyan Hela had actually shot and killed 127 rabbits in three days!
This is a remarkable thing. It’s not just that the king is better than the Zhao Song official family in the south at such a young age, nor is it about how the king’s move demonstrates the great fishing and hunting tradition of the Jin royal family... The key is that the young
The king easily used these prey to refute the rumors. He was not the so-called 'Han family' in the rumors at all!
Even though he looks like a Han, dresses like a Han, and talks like a Han, he is still essentially a Jurchen! Otherwise, how could he have so many prey?
It cannot be said that during the past three days of hunting, he was not hunting alone. The ancestor Wanyan Qilibo and Taizu Wanyan Aguda were both possessed, right?
If he is really possessed, it means that the king is a great man descended from heaven and is blessed by his ancestors!
Similar remarks reached a peak after the imperial reward session that followed.
In this link, the king first announced on the spot the establishment of a royal guard army directly belonging to him, and then used this as a reason to promote a large number of children of all ethnic groups who had outstanding performance in hunting to serve as his attendants; for the elderly, there were
Those who hold official positions will be rewarded with large amounts of gold, silver, horses, and goods; that's not all, the real drama comes later... At the suggestion of King Wanyan Wushu of Wei, the young king made a large number of kings on the spot!
It was really a large-scale crowning of kings! Dozens of kings and nobles were thrown out in one day!
Not only the dozen uncles of the king of the country have been awarded the title of king one after another, but many officials who have contributed to the establishment of the tripod have also become so-called kings... Wanyan Yinshu became the king of Shu, and Wanyan Talan became the king of Lu.
, Wanyan Pu's slave was the King of Wu, Wanyan Xiyin was the King of Chen... there were also many dead people, the dead former heir Wanyan Xie was also posthumously named the King of Yan, and the man who presided over the Jingkang Revolution was not dismissed.
He was posthumously named the King of Song Dynasty, and the Lou family was posthumously named the King of Yue... Even the sons of the expelled former king were included. Wu Qimai's eldest son, Wanyan Puluhu, was named the acting king, and several others
His sons also had royal titles, and the king also issued royal honors and rewards in public, and had them delivered immediately.
For a moment, the crowd was excited and everyone showed their faces. Of course, they had to raise their glasses again and shout that the Lord is one hundred and twenty years old!
In this way, the three-day hunting was over, and everyone continued to go north, and soon came to an endless pine forest... This is the famous flat pine forest.
Arriving here means arriving at the original origin of the Khitan tribe and the Xi tribe.
In later generations, the flat pine forests were affected by human activities and greatly shrank or even disappeared. However, at this time, this endless pine forest with an area of almost a thousand miles spread from the southern section of the Daxingan Mountains to the upper reaches of the Luoma River (northwest of Songshan), and was isolated on one side.
It prevented the invasion of the Mongolian Plateau to the west, while at the same time providing the Khitan and Xi people with a huge amount of survival resources.
The Khitan people relied on this pine forest to grow and develop, and then achieved hegemony... During the Liao Dynasty, there were countless records of this pine forest. The so-called green cow with white horse came out of the flat pine forest.
Then follow Huangshui to Linhuang Mansion.
Of course, even this thousand-mile pine forest in the ancestral land of the Khitan people is now just a game place for Jurchen dignitaries to shoot tigers and show their bravery to the king. Entering the east side of the flat pine forest, all the way north, everything is calm and peaceful.
The biggest news of the two days was that someone went into the forest and shot a tiger, and then presented it to the talented young king.
However, early in the morning on the third day, some of the drama that was to come came. An envoy from the King of Liao, the eldest of the three ruling brothers, came from the northeast. He said that the Khitan people and the Xi people were so shocked when they heard that the king was coming that they contacted each other.
, seems to be a little unstable, the King of Liao only has two people to join forces in Meng'an. Just in case, he asked the king of the country and the King of Wei to send reinforcements to him first and let him stabilize the situation in Linhuang Mansion. The so-called cleaning up and then letting go
The Lord of the Kingdom has arrived.
King Wanyan Wushu of Wei directly agreed without hesitation. Immediately, Wu Lin responded to Tai's wish and led his five companions, Meng'an, to go north first.
To this, no one around had any objections... After all, since the Jinhebo Alliance meeting last year, the tentacles of the Yelv Dashi reached the border, and many Khitan and Xi people were ready to make a move, otherwise the leader of the country would be the first to go on his first autumn hunt.
Why choose Linhuangfu as your first stop?
In a sense, it is everyone's consensus that political incidents or even bloody incidents will occur. Only the military power of the Jin Kingdom is still unrivaled on this side of the Yellow River, so there is no need to worry about things going wrong.
Therefore, the entire team was still calm, and there were only a few Khitans. The officials from the Xi tribe were a little nervous, but they were personally summoned by the leader of the country who performed increasingly well to comfort them, and then inevitably burst into tears of gratitude.
In the evening of that day, the huge team routinely stayed at a place seven or eight miles away from the outer edge of the flat pine forest. Specifically, it was on the other side of a shallow tributary of Huangshui River. There were only a few simple small pontoons on the river to facilitate access.
It's just a pine cone in the pine forest to light a fire... There is a saying for camping like this. Camping by the water is for the convenience of water, and a little further away from the pine forest and stationed on the other side of the river is because the pine forest must be strictly guarded against fire in autumn. In case of fire, the small river
It can effectively prevent the spread of fire.
This is common sense to Jurchens who come from fishing and hunting backgrounds.
It can only be said that the Zhao Guan family is not the only one who pays attention to environmental protection these days, the Wanyan family is also at the forefront of the times.
And others did not mention it. They only said that Qin Hui, the deputy envoy of the Privy Council, had dinner in the king's tent that night. When he returned to his camping place, he only asked personally about the two items that King Wei had just rewarded a few days ago.
Ten soldiers, and then went into the camp early to close his eyes and rest... Ever since he got these twenty soldiers, this Qin Xianggong has been like this, and he no longer has the problem of running around at night.
As usual, the sun sets and darkness falls, but there is constant noise in the camp. If you go out and wander around, although it can't be called brightly lit, it can be regarded as dotted with stars.
However, today seemed different from the past. Half an hour later, there was a faint sound of wind coming from outside the tent. This wind was not an ordinary sound, but the autumn wind was blowing up the vast forest sea several miles away, and the forest sea was rolling into waves.
There was a roaring sound, occasionally mixed with the howling of wild beasts, which was truly breathtaking.
Sitting cross-legged on the couch, Qin Huizhi, who didn't even take off his clothes, opened his eyes and listened to the roar of the wind attentively. For some reason, he was fascinated by the sound and thought of countless strange things.
After a while, the wind gradually died down and there seemed to be no other movement in the camp. Qin Hui sighed and prepared to sleep in his clothes.
But at this time, suddenly, an imperceptible shout came from the east... It was like the howling of a wild animal, like the sound of wind blowing through some gap, and it also sounded like a human voice.
Hearing the sound only for a moment, Qin Hui turned over and sat up.
However, the sound only flickered and then disappeared. Then there was still a slight breeze and it was as quiet as ever.
Qin Huizhi sighed, then smiled bitterly. He felt that he was too careful. Maybe the king of Wei gave him twenty soldiers that day just to warn and monitor him because he deliberately pretended to be a coward in the court and refused to do anything for him.
I was not what I thought... As soon as I thought of this, Mr. Qin turned over and fell down, then closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Then, he was startled by the sudden shouting of killing and fell off the simple wooden couch!
The cry of death came from the east. Qin Huizhi, who was sleeping in his clothes, fell to the ground. He hurriedly picked up a pair of boots that had been placed beside the tent door and ran out of the tent barefoot. Then he just turned around and
Seeing the flames in the east, there were still people shouting loudly... Some were shouting to avenge the capital marshal, some were shouting Qingjun's flanking attack on Wushu, some were shouting long live the Great Khitan, and some were even shouting about the control of Zhao Guan's family.
The officer is leading the whole gang here... but I don't know if he has watched "Water Margin"?
The shouting was very lively, and the chaotic camp was even more lively, but Qin Hui only listened to a few times, put on his boots, and then turned around to meet the twenty soldiers who were also in a hurry:
"Everyone! King Wei has sent you here just for today's matter. Take me across the river to the west as soon as possible!"
There was a leader in this group of soldiers. Hearing this, he was startled at first, and then frowned: "You don't have to go see the king and the king of Wei?"
Qin Hui was finally furious: "If I know where the Lord of the Kingdom and King Wei are, you can take me there!"
The leader of the soldiers looked at the brightly lit tent of the king, and became more and more confused. However, King Wei had given instructions beforehand, so he no longer delayed, but directly pushed away the servants of the Han official and protected him.
This Han official went directly to the west.
Qin Hui ignored his servants and instead took the initiative to point out the location of the floating bridge and urged the soldiers to hurry over.
When they arrived at the pontoon bridge, there were indeed serious and well-prepared soldiers waiting. They took Qin Hui and his party over, and then asked the soldiers and his entourage to stay on the east bank to fight against the enemy, and then led Qin Huizhi alone to a certain place on the west side of the river.
Go up an inconspicuous hill.
There wasn't much fire on the slope, but Qin Huizhi was born with sharp eyesight, and he saw the King of Jin in a cloak and the King of Wei in full armor from a distance. The two were standing on the slope, watching the chaos in the camp opposite.
Like...but I can't see their expressions.
Qin Hui gathered his mood and went to say hello, but unexpectedly when he came down the slope, he was taken directly to the place by the soldiers, as if he was not allowed to come forward easily to disturb... This was no problem, but what made Qin Huizhi feel speechless was that in the dim
Under the bright light, two acquaintances were waiting here early. It was Hong Ya!
And his relative Zheng Xiunian who is hiding behind Hong Ya!
These two bastards can actually run faster than myself, nicknamed Qin Changjiao?!
However, it was hard to say much at this point. The three of them just bowed their hands slightly and saluted under the light of the fire. Then they huddled in the shadows, just staring at the uncle and nephew who were only a few dozen steps away on the slope, and then raised their eyebrows.
Just lift your ears.
After waiting for a while, a voice finally came from the slope, breaking the silence.
It was none other than the young king Wanyan Hela, but his tone sounded a little bad:
"Fourth uncle, which family is causing the trouble? Or was it arranged by you and your uncles to cause the trouble?"
After all, the king of the country is fifteen years old. Under the hill, Qin Hui and Hong Ya looked at each other, but they couldn't say what they wanted to say.
"There is actually only one person who actually led the troops to cause trouble tonight, and that is your uncle Puluhu (Wu Qimai's eldest son)..." Wanyan Wushu's voice was equally cold. "This man has always been a scourge. It will be difficult for you if he is alive.
An, the three of us are also in trouble, so I and your two uncles used a trick to deliberately lure him here."
This answer did not make the two Han ministers below react at all, but the young king was speechless because this answer obviously made him sober... You must know that many people in Puluhu are just Fengxun.
The former leader of the country, Wu Qi, bought his eldest son. Once this person succeeds in his rebellion, no one else will know about it, but he, the leader of the country, will definitely bear the brunt. He will be the most unlucky one no matter what!
Moreover, this answer also solved another mystery, that is, who has the courage to attack the ceremonial guard of the king in the wilderness of the country, which is protected by two Hezha mengan?
You must know that this is the most elite army in the world! They were carefully selected from an army of 200,000 to 300,000 people when the Kingdom of Jin was in its heyday!
However, if it is Puluhu, it seems natural, because when Hezha Meng'an was first established, only Aguda, Wu Qimai, and Nianhan were qualified to establish Hezha Meng'an. Among them, Nianhan's
The two Hezha Meng'an were given to the Lou family before the Yaoshan War and remained in Hedong. However, two of the remaining four Hezha Meng'an in Yanjing City were built by Wu Qimai himself.
To put it bluntly, Puruhu is likely to have an insider!
After being silent for a long time, the young king, Wanyan Hela, couldn't hold it back anymore, and lowered his voice again and asked: "Fourth uncle...does the emperor's uncle (Wu Qimai) know about this?"
"The old king really suffered a stroke and it was difficult to get up." Wu Shu gave a definite answer. "Now he can only lie down. Otherwise, why do you think our brothers dared to let him go so easily?"
"Who is the secret agent?" Hela asked again.
"There is no response." Wu Shu answered calmly. "Puluhu found Talan and wanted Talan to go to the two Hezha Meng'an in the name of the old king to find someone, but Talan directly found me.
, it was today’s plan that I and your other two uncles made after a hurried discussion... In other words, how dare we three brothers put you in real danger?"
The young king was relieved.
At this time, after hearing this secret, Qin Huizhi and Hong Ya couldn't help but look at each other in the shadows below the slope. Their eyes hurriedly exchanged in the dark night with the help of torches, and they understood each other again.
After all, the king was too young to understand the other party's intention. Whether it was Puluhu who found Talan first or Wu Shu who found Talan first, I'm afraid only Wu Shu and Talan can tell clearly.
So, who knows what happened?
The autumn wind is blowing gently, and on the other side of the river, there are still flames soaring into the sky, and the chaos is endless. More and more people are gathering behind the hill... Wanyan Talan, Han Fang, Wulin Dazanmo, Wanyan Xiyin, Wanyan Yin
All skills are available here.
Although these people came late, they were all shrewd people. Looking at the scene on the other side of the river, they only felt sad. Not only the people who were causing trouble on the other side were sad, but also those who were kept in the dark.
People who wake up are actually quite pathetic.
But soon, something even sadder happened.
"Lord of the country! King Wei!"
After a few people yelled and were dragged away because of their status, it had been quite quiet down the hill, but this time someone still couldn't help but shout out to the two nobles who faced the river with their backs to the pine forest.
And this time, not even the soldier next to him stopped him.
Wanyan Wushu and Wanyan Hela's uncle and nephew finally turned around, and then they both lost their minds... But it could only be that they were lost... It turned out that the pine forest at the side and back was where they came in. I don't know when it started.
There was a fire inside.
No need to ask, everyone knows that this must be caused by the current chaos. Someone ran into the pine forest with kindling.
Let's talk about it. Once the huge pine forest thousands of miles away catches fire, how can human power stop it? The fire spreads almost immediately with the autumn wind. The length of the fire line can be doubled in just a few breaths. In just half a quarter of an hour, it is faintly visible.
It has the tendency to become a sea of fire and roll deeper... Compared with this movement, the chaos in the camp on the other side of the river is simply child's play.
Seeing this situation, the person who created the figurines is like Wanyan Wushu, the noble person is like the young king of the country, the scheming person is like Qin Huizhi, the battlefield is like Hongya, the person who has experienced hundreds of battles is like silver, the knowledge is like Han Fang, Xi Yin, all of them
I could only stare in stunned silence as the fire roared freely through the pine forest.
No one spoke.
Not only that, the fire waves in the big pine forest rolled up into the sky, and the momentum was overwhelming, which in turn affected the chaos on the other side of the river. The chaos that was supposed to be resolved quickly was delayed until dawn. Wu Lin Da Taiyu was ordered to lead five fierce soldiers.
Waiting twenty miles to the north, he should have followed the fire to come for support, but the sudden fire in the pine forest in the middle of the night made him lose his way, and he only found it at dawn.
Of course, it was just an accident after all.
Moreover, shortly after dawn, the situation was completely stable. Finally, people were a little relieved about the still smoking wildfire behind them, and then turned their attention to the chaos. At this time, although I was not caught due to the fire accident,
But there were also many other gangsters caught, and the evidence was basically conclusive. Wanyan Puluhu was the one who rebelled, and he also colluded with some Khitans and Xi people!
The dignitaries of Yanjing who had survived the disaster stood in front of the small slope and looked at each other. They had nothing to say to this answer:
"The king just made him king! How shameless!"
"A noble girl is actually colluding with a Khitan dog!"
"Listening to yesterday's words, isn't there still Han'er?"
"It is impossible to say that he has colluded with the Song Dynasty people!"
"Be punished!"
"Kill them all together!"
"Master, please spare his life! After all, the old master is still here!"
In the midst of the hustle and bustle, due to the commotion last night and the accident on the way, the young king, who was already very tired at this time, instinctively looked at the armored man beside him in the smoke of fireworks:
"Fourth Uncle, what should we do with Pruhu and his brothers?"
Wanyan Wushu hesitated to speak, but then looked back at the few people behind him... Unlike those who arrived later and could only stand in front of the slope, the dozens of people who arrived before the chaos was settled had already stood on the slope. Go up and stand behind the king and the king of Wei.
The young ruler Wanyan Hela understood and immediately turned to face the people who had come to look for him early. Then he asked the people who were closer to him sincerely: "Master Han, Mr. Xiyin, Mr. Wulin, Mr. Qin, you guys What do you think?"
Standing on the slope, Qin Huizhi and others naturally had a clear view of what was going on down the slope, and they naturally had their own words when they heard what was said.
Wu Lin replied to Zanmo and Han Fang both suggested that the king should resort to thunderbolt measures to end the matter. Wanyan Xiyin frowned and just declined to let the king make the decision.
After these three people finished speaking, Qin Huizhi slightly raised his hands and wanted to agree. But when he glanced down from the corner of his eyes, he saw many dignitaries from various ethnic groups standing at the foot of the slope, with a small slope in front of him and a small slope behind him. On the left and right of the river, there were actually armored knights standing in formation in the rain. On the left was Wulin Da Taiyu, and on the right the flag seemed to be that of Wen Dun Sizhong.
Under this glance, for some reason, Qin Xianggong suddenly changed his mind as soon as the words came to his lips: "Your Majesty, I think you should do less killing..."
Wanyan Hela was slightly startled, then frowned, but Wanyan Wushu next to him took a deep breath after hearing this, as if he was sighing.
However, the final result was as expected. No emperor would be soft on someone who posed a real threat to his throne and made a real act of rebellion... The three brothers of King Wei also did not want an external force to continue. Maintaining a semi-independent state made it impossible for the King of Wei to recruit Jurchens to form new armies.
Therefore, under the guidance of King Wei, the resolution was quickly reached. Wanyan Puluhu naturally wanted to offer a reward for his capture, regardless of life or death. The Wanyan Puluhu brothers were also wanted, and Wulin Datai wanted to lure him immediately. The soldiers went to capture him.
Of course, the old king must not be alarmed.
At this point, everyone let out a sigh of relief, and just wanted to let this matter come to light as soon as possible.
However, at this moment, His Highness the King of Wei, our Fourth Prince Wanyanwushu, suddenly raised his sword forward and spoke to many dignitaries down the slope in the increasingly gloomy weather:
"When the chaos broke out last night, those who took the initiative to rescue the king's tent should go out of line and walk fifty steps to the north. Those who took the initiative to engage with the enemy in the east should go out of line and walk fifty steps to the south..."
As soon as these words came out, the young king suddenly realized that he was confused and had forgotten the reward.
But for some unknown reason, after the death of the king, whether it was Shangshu Wulin, Master Han, or the Deputy Prime Minister Wanyan Xiyin, all turned pale.
