Peach Blossom Island was an island that definitely existed in the Jinzhou area at this time, but later gradually connected to the mainland and disappeared. It contrasts with the Juhua Island in the south, and may even be named after the larger and more famous Juhua Island.
As for Juhua Island, it actually has two names. It is also called Juehua Island. This may be due to the increasing number of Buddhist buildings on the island. I don’t know when it was changed. Of course, it may also be the other way around, precisely because of the increasing number of Buddhist buildings.
, maybe it was just changed from Juehua Island to Juhua Island.
But these had nothing to do with Guo Jin and Yang Zaixing. After they received the military order, they each led a hundred cavalry to leave the majority and only waited at the Bohai Sea. When Yue Fei led most of the troops to break through Jinzhou, they also waited until the Imperial Navy Command
A fleet led by Guan Cui Bangbi.
The fleet is not large... According to Cui Bangbi, because the imperial navy performed poorly in the previous Northern Expedition, it was said that there was only hard work but no merit. Therefore, as soon as the deputy commander-in-chief Li Bao reorganized the remnants of the Jin Kingdom's navy, he couldn't wait to report to the officials.
The family went on an errand, crossed the sea, explored the hinterland of Liaodong, made contacts, and monitored the Koreans... There were not many good ships left.
Of course, this is not to say that the incoming fleet cannot even transport 200 cavalry, but Cui Bangbi feels that this job comes too suddenly and affects his last chance to gain military glory - he is both complaining and urging.
In this regard, Guo Damashao and Yang Datieqiang didn't say anything, because they also had similar ideas... They also wanted to pacify the Liao Dynasty, march into Huanglong Mansion, and wipe out the remaining Jurchen tribes, instead of helping Zhao Guan's family, Lu
Mr. Liu, what is Prince Liu looking for from 12 years ago?
It has only been twelve years, but the young faction in the Song army has already forgotten and is too lazy to care about who Yaoshi Guo is.
But just ignoring it is not an option.
The search process was lackluster.
You must know that Yue Fei's imperial army has just left the Liao Dynasty from the mountains and seas. The temples and temples on the island and the local powerful are trembling with fear. How can they dare to do anything at this time?
Therefore, the three of them landed on Chrysanthemum Island first, and after a search, they could not find him. The person in charge of the Dalonggong Temple, which was built on the island, had already taken the initiative to offer advice, pointing out that the resources on the island were limited, the conditions were difficult, and there were many fleeing dignitaries who were not accustomed to the acclimatization.
When you look for a doctor, the doctor will come and ask for details.
Sure enough, everyone searched for doctors on the island and soon learned from a gynecological expert named Ximen Qing that there was indeed an old man named Guo who claimed to be the former governor of Pingzhou who had called him for diagnosis and treatment many times, and that this person should have been there for a long time.
The army member should be Guo Yaoshi... However, although this guy lived on Juhua Island where the conditions were better at first, when Zhao Guan's family won a great victory and Goryeo sent troops to Liao, he became frightened and took the initiative to flee to
Went to the smaller Peach Blossom Island.
After receiving the information, the three people hurriedly led Ximen Qing to the narrow and cramped Taohua Island. The island had a small population. After asking again, they found out that after Marshal Yue commanded the imperial camp and the front army left Yuguan, this Guo Yaoshi seemed to have
Knowing that his family's sins were too serious to be tolerated by the Song Dynasty, he panicked and turned back, but turned around and fled back to Juhua Island, which was further away from the coastline... But this person was cautious and did not dare to go to the main Juhua Island.
Instead, I went to a very small island called Mopanshan Island to the north of Juhua Island.
There are only seven or eight fishermen households on the island and one bitter well. They can barely survive, and they basically live on Juehua Island.
So, the three of them took Ximen Qing back again. Although there were many twists and turns, they finally found Guo Yaoshi and his son who were full of fishy odor in a reef cave on Mopanshan Island.
After Ximen Qing and many other people on the island identified him, he was sure that it was Medicine Master Guo, so he went straight back to Yuguan.
Three days later, the news reached Lulong in Pingzhou, which was the latest residence of the Zhao Guan family.
"Pingfu."
In Lulong City, Zhao Jiu read the secret letter and took the initiative to hand it to the person beside him. "Mr. Guo, Guo Anguo and his son have been captured. Do you want to take a look?"
Liu Yan hesitated for a moment, then took the secret note. After scanning it slightly, he became a little confused:
"I don't know."
"How to say?"
Zhao Jiu obviously didn't care.
"In the past twelve years, my attitude towards Pharmacist Guo was actually inconsistent. In the first two years, I was resentful, but after Jingkang suffered a complete defeat, I did not do what he wanted." Liu Yan put the secret note back and sighed for a while. "Later, I had to meet the officials.
, Seeing the country's momentum day by day, I gradually began to feel like one day. However, after I had been with the official family for a long time and the overall situation gradually became clear, I felt that Medicine Master Guo was insignificant. Therefore, compared with this old thief, I still thought
It would be best if I could return to Yanzhou as soon as possible and help Chi Xinqi find the missing child."
Zhao Jiu flashed back to Zhang Yongzhen's appearance before his death. His face did not change, but he nodded slightly: "That's right. In that case, just send someone to take Pharmacist Guo to Yanjing City."
Liu Yan nodded quickly.
Zhao Jiu paused for a moment, then continued: "Let's go to Yuyu Island together... firstly, it will be convenient to wait for the Jurchens and Korean envoys, and secondly, it will be convenient for you to return home when the Liao land is settled."
Liu Yan hesitated again: "The officials want to go to the island and go to Dalonggong Temple?"
"Does Zhengfu still think that I can ask immortals to worship Buddha?" Of course Zhao Jiu knew what the other party was thinking, and immediately laughed and shook his head. "The main reason is that Juhua Island is in a good location, not far to the north of Yuguan. How much can I do when I leave the customs?
To shock all the tribes outside the pass... Of course, I also have selfish motives. I have always wanted to visit the Jieshi, but the Jieshi is about to arrive, why not go to the island by the way?"
Liu Yan nodded, but still tried to remind him: "It's okay to go to Peach Blossom Island just to see the Jieshi. But if the officials want to go to Wulu Mountain, please be sure to inform Yanjing."
"It's natural." Zhao Jiu responded calmly. "But Zhengfu, don't worry, I really have no intention of curing Wulu Mountain... I just want to take a look at the Jieshi and wait for the results from the Jurchens."
In this way, the plan was decided to walk along the Yellow River to Cangzhou, and then along the Bohai Sea coastline to Zhao Guan's house in Lulong. As expected, he continued to choose east and north.
In fact, it is only a hundred miles from Lulong to Yuguan, but the Yanshan Mountains are naturally divided. For a long time, the inside and outside of the pass have undoubtedly represented a kind of distinction between inside and outside... This has existed since the Han Dynasty, because of the geographical division
The resulting political and military divisions.
Therefore, when the Zhao Guan family decided to streamline the accompanying troops and set off out of Yuguan with only three thousand people, as the decree spread, it still caused an uproar.
Yanjing was the first to react. Although Lu Yihao and Han Shizhong received the edict's explanation, they still jointly wrote a letter asking Zhao Guan's family to keep the information flowing, and asked Tian Shizhong, who was left in Lulong, to go out of the customs and arrange along the mountain and sea roads, and send Ma Kuo to Yu.
It is stationed at the pass, with the curved end slightly out of Beigukou to provide flank protection.
Immediately afterwards, the states and counties in the mountain and sea route corridor outside the Pass also began to boil... Although this place has experienced several "boilings" in succession due to the Huolu War, Goryeo sending troops to Liaodong, the Jurchens from Yanjing fleeing, and Yue Fei sending troops, but this time will not be delayed.
The excitement has to continue because of the personal visit of Zhao Guan's family.
In mid-April, when Zhao Guan's family arrived at Yuguan, they were surprised to hear that there was a Jieshi Mountain in Changli County within the pass, where one could climb the mountain and look at the sea. It was rumored that it was the place where Cao Mengde chanted that day.
Zhao Jiu followed the name and went up the mountain to look around. He saw only the blue sky on all sides and the blue sea in front of him. There was indeed a magnificent scene. Although the stars were not shining brightly, if he looked out of the scene, there were still trees and luxuriant grasses.
But for some reason, this official climbed the mountain and gazed for half a day without saying a word. After descending the mountain, he continued to turn north and walk out of Yuguan.
After leaving the customs and entering Zongzhou, they arrived at a place only one day later. It may be that the previous news about Jieshi Mountain spread, or it may be that Liu Yan knew the words of Zhao Guan's family and paid special attention to them... In short, there were local elders soon.
He took the initiative to introduce it, saying that there is an island near the sea to the east. It was where Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty was stationed when he conquered Goryeo, and it was named Qinwang Island.
Zhao Jiu was greatly surprised and immediately set out to take a look. Sure enough, he saw an obvious island in a bay outside the pass. It was thousands of steps in diameter and seven or eight feet high. It was completely different from the surrounding alluvial terrain.
If you ask more carefully, people around you often call it Qinwang Island, but some people also call it Qinhuang Island, saying that it was the place where Qin Shi Huang stationed during his eastward patrol.
Zhao Jiu sighed inwardly, so he went to the island for half a day to pay his respects.
There is no need to say more about the fact that the sky was still clear that day and I finally left without a word.
That's not all.
In late April, Zhao Guan's family continued to travel north for two days. After being separated from the escort team of Guo Yaoshi and his son, they arrived at the Shijiadian area in the north of Zongzhou. However, local scholars once again came to visit and informed this person.
Officials say that there is a Jieshi in the sea somewhere here, and there are also sites around where Emperor Qin went to sea to seek immortality, and ancient coins and tiles often appear there.
Zhao Jiu, who was already a little numb, looked at it three times in surprise. Sure enough, he saw with his own eyes two large rocks standing in the sea, which matched the words of Jieshi.
Half a day later, he retreated without saying a word.
In fact, from the Jieshi Mountain in Changli, to Qinwang Island outside Yuguan, to the Jieshi in the sea right now, they are all adjacent to the mountain and sea road, and are only a few dozen miles apart... It is normal to have some rumors.
Moreover, regardless of the rumors, there is no contradiction in the legends of Qin Emperor, Tang Zong, and Wei Wu. They are even quite consistent with the ancient meaning. In line with the Zhao Guan family's intention to destroy the country at this time, there are also several contrasting versions.
To put it bluntly, with the current general situation in the world, Zhao Guanjia is not allowed to write poems to catch the attention of those three people?
If you don't want to take advantage of it, why bother asking about Jieshi all the way?
It's just that for some reason, this official didn't seem to find his own piece of meteorite.
In late April, the official family of Zhao Song continued their journey northward and entered Jinzhou. Juhua Island was right in front of them... The abbot of Dalonggong Temple on the island led the monks and laypeople on the island to cross the sea early to wait for them on land.
However, just when Zhao Jiu was preparing to land on the island, he heard a piece of news that was not unexpected - because of Yue Fei's advance, the Jurchens' fleeing troops avoided Liaoyang and chose to take a detour through Linhuangfu Road to return.
Huanglong Mansion, Huining Mansion, and when they decided to turn around in Dading Mansion, an imminent pursuit by the Eastern Mongolian cavalry and the Khitan cavalry directly triggered an internal strife.
After the civil strife, most of the Bohai people and some of the Liao Han people broke away from the escape sequence and went to Liaodong on their own, and tried to contact Yue Fei and ask for surrender.
Of course, what Zhao Jiu doesn't know at the moment is that at the same time that he learned about the first large-scale internal strife in the Jin Kingdom's escape team, new troubles in the escape team seemed to be just around the corner.
"What do you think, Mr. Qin?"
In a slightly narrow courtyard on Linhuang Road in Changning City, after being silent for a while, Wanyan Xiyin suddenly clicked on a person's name.
"I think what Mr. Xi Yin said is right, and something will happen next."
Qin Hui sat down opposite Xi Yin with his hands tied, and his expression did not change when he heard this. "Because if you go further down, you have to go down to Huanglong Mansion along the Huangshui River, and the ancestral lands of the Khitan and Xi people are all in the upper reaches of the Huangshui River. The Song people also promised
Now that the Khitan and Xi people are self-governing in their hometown of Linhuang Mansion, Yelu Yu has even led the Khitan Qingqi out of the fortress... It is inevitable that they will part ways again."
"I'm asking Mr. Qin how to respond, not asking Mr. Qin to repeat my words again." Wanyan Xiyin has always been serious, but being so serious at this time inevitably made the atmosphere even more tense.
"good."
He Shilietaiyu, who became more and more powerful as he went north, also smiled and said, "Qin Xianggong is very resourceful, so he must have a good idea."
"In the current situation, it cannot be said that there is no strategy, but it is just a strategy." Qin Hui seemed not to hear He Shilie Taiyu's sarcasm, and just answered seriously. "If it is really implemented, no one knows what the result will be."
"Just say it."
The eldest prince, Wanyan Onben, said something loudly above him, but he couldn't help but press his left eye which was crying with one hand... It was caused by being splashed by sparks in a hurry during the internal strife in Dading Mansion at night.
It wasn't a serious injury, but it seemed serious during this escape journey.
"In the current situation, it is absolutely undesirable to strike first and gain the upper hand." Qin Huizhi still spoke calmly. "There are only two things...either be sincere and fair and go separate ways; or, find a way to provoke ridicule.
The people and the Khitans will go their separate ways...the former will take a sincere approach, and the latter will take a retreat."
The atmosphere in the hospital became increasingly tense.
After a pause, someone started to steal in the corner of the courtyard again: "General Yeluma Wu is a loyal minister and good general, can't we rely on him?"
"Yes, please ask General Ma Wu to cut off the rear, or restrain the Khitan people in the queue, Xi Ren..."
“General Ma Wu’s loyalty and bravery need not be overstated.”
It was Wanyan Xiyin who pointed out the embarrassing aspects of the situation without hesitation. "But now, General Ma Wu can't stop his men... However, it doesn't mean that we can't rely on General Ma Wu. In my opinion, it is
It would be better to take the initiative to persuade General Ma Wu to lead his troops and stay in Huangshui, and seek Yelu Yujian to become rich. This will make our future safe."
"This is also a method, but it also has disadvantages." Qin Hui tried hard to say. "Since the war started last winter, there are currently less than five thousand soldiers. Regardless of ethnic origin, countless people in the army have surrendered. Only General Ma Wu
Consistently consistent, it can be called a model for the country... Now if he is allowed to stay with the Khitans, it is certainly good from a practical point of view, but I am afraid that the last breath of the court will be lost... If word spreads, the world will still
I thought that the Kingdom of Jin could not even tolerate a loyal foreign official."
These words were very clear, and to be honest, they were even a little too clear.
Not to mention Wanyan Xiyin, Wulin Dazanmo and other wise men, the eldest prince Wanyan Oben, He Shilie Taiyu, and other ministers and generals such as Ta Lan, Yin Shuke, Pu Jianu and others also listened. A clear one.
Even the young prince and his wife in the back room, and even some marginalized people, could roughly understand what Qin Xianggong meant.
First of all, Qin Huizhi was of course trying to remind people of the issue, asking these dignitaries of the Jin Kingdom not to use Yelü Mawu's loyalty as something to be exploited.
Secondly, he was also using Yelu Mawu as a metaphor for himself, asking these people not to abandon Qin Huizhi easily.
Otherwise, people's hearts will be completely scattered.
Of course, there is an implicit logic here that can only be targeted at a few people, that is, the current fugitive court is maintained by the fourth prince's initiative to sacrifice himself for the country, and by the force of everyone's desire to survive and move north. , the balance is actually very fragile. And this fragile balance is due to Xiyin - the king of the country - Wulin Dazanmo, plus some of Yelu Mawu's soldiers and horses, and the king's control over several remaining Hezhamengan. To decide.
Once the general Yelu Mawu is abandoned again, the Kingdom of Jin will not have to wait for the Khitan. The Xi people will start a wave of internal strife against the Jurchens, and the Jurchens themselves will start to fight among themselves first.
"Having said that." Xi Yin was the only one to discuss the situation seriously. "But some things are simply beyond human control now. We can only do our best with a clear conscience... Qin Xianggong, let me ask you something... Do you really want to Will you follow us to Huining Mansion?"
Qin Hui nodded without hesitation: "Now that things have come to this point, this is the only way... Zhao Guan's family cannot tolerate me... Please don't believe me."
"Okay." Xi Yin nodded. "Since the situation is so bad, we don't need to pretend to have any wisdom...invite General Ma Wu to come over and let him make his own decision."
The eldest prince covered his eyes, He Shilie Taiyu lowered his head and looked at his feet, all speechless.
After waiting for a while, Yelv Mawu arrived. After listening to Xi Yin's words, he simply said: "I am not loyal, but I have surrendered once. I know the embarrassment of surrender and the difficulty of surrender. I really don't want to do it again." Repeatedly... Now that things have come to this, I have nothing else on my mind. I just want to ask you all to allow me to accompany you personally. When I get to Huining Mansion, if I can settle down, you can allow me to work as a casualty for the rest of my life... Of course, I would like to advise my subordinates to stay and have a good time without repeating themselves."
Ma Wu spoke calmly, and even seemed quite heroic in his heart. But for some reason, everyone felt miserable when they heard it.
Some people lamented the country's exile, some lamented the bleak future, some thought of the general trend in the future, and some thought of the current personal difficulties... For a while, no one answered.
After a long while, Wanyan Xiyin calmed down and nodded slightly: "General Ma Wu behaves like this, which is neither loyalty nor loyalty...but there is no need to be too modest... Let the matter be settled like this. Please ask General Ma Wu to come forward. Discuss with the Khitan people and Xi people in the queue! Let’s not think too much and just set off... Even if there is any accident, don’t blame anyone. Soldiers will block it and water will cover it. May you live and die! "
With that said, without waiting for the other people to say anything, Xiyin simply stood up and left. Seeing this, Ma Wu also turned around.
As for the eldest prince and below, although everyone has their own thoughts, out of trust and respect for Wanyan Xiyin, at least no one is making trouble on the surface.
Just like that, after resting for half a day in Changning, the Jurchen escape group set off again.
As expected, Yelu Mawu relied on his prestige among the Khitan and Xiji sergeants to appease the remnants of his army, and made a gentleman's agreement with these people... It was still the old method, leaving some of the property, and the two sides parted ways happily.
...Only today is no different than in the past. These remnants of the Khitan-Xi tribe also asked Yelu Mawu and the sixth prince, Tong Luguan, to stay as hostages, and they were simply agreed.
However, this does not mean that the escape team is fine.
In fact, the entire escape process, even if there is no large-scale open conflict, the hardships and losses are needless to say... People leave the team every day, and property is mysteriously lost every day, but more importantly,
They are fighting every day, so that everyone is becoming more and more nervous, and their suspicion and defensiveness are becoming increasingly obvious.
This is something that can't be helped.
People with insight had already realized this when they started to flee.
At first glance, this scene seems to be no different from the escape of the Zhao and Song official family ten years ago... Even the Zhao official family's escape from Hebei to Huaishang and then to Nanyang is farther than Yanjing to Huining Mansion... But in fact
It's so different.
Because when the Zhao and Song Dynasties were in exile, they were surrounded by Han people and Song natives. Even if bandits swarmed out, they would still know how to use the banner of King Qin's rebel army.
And now?
Now these Jin Kingdom dignitaries only feel like clowns on the stage of the Song Dynasty, but their clothes are stripped off layer by layer...or rather, their skin is peeled off.
Leaving Yanyun and separating from the Han people in the Pass, they lost the richest land and the most extensive human resources; news came that outside the Great Wall, Liaodong and Liaoxi were being suppressed by soldiers, triggering internal strife, and they lost the Bohai Sea for many years.
The allies, Goryeo, lost their economic center and military and technological high ground outside the Great Wall; now, they have to separate themselves from their old rivals in Huangshui, the Khitan-Xi people who have repeatedly emphasized after the destruction of the Liao Dynasty as the "subjects of the country". This means
Soon they were the only Jurchens left.
And what happens next?
When they reach Huanglong Mansion and the Song army continues to press forward, will the Wanyan clan also need to be separated from the other Jurchen tribes?
To put it bluntly, there are tens of millions of Han people. It has been 1,400 years since Emperor Qin unified the country, and it has been 1,300 years since Emperor Wu of Han further promoted unification in terms of system and culture.
At the same time, there were only one million Jurchens, and the founding of the country lasted only more than 20 years. Even the unification of the six Jurchen tribes was achieved during the anti-Liao process.
This strong contrast not only highlights the unparalleled strength of the Jurchens in their rise, but it also means that at this moment, this nation really has no room for turning.
Survival or destruction, continuation or discontinuation, this is a question.
It is a problem that everyone has to face.
Perhaps they were eager to rush to the Huanglong Mansion (surrounding present-day Changchun) area in the lower reaches of Huangshui River, and they also wanted to escape from the unstable Khitan-Xi settlement area as soon as possible. In the next period of time, in the lower reaches of Huangshui River where there were no cities, people became more and more anxious.
They kept marching along the river and marched desperately. Every night they were so exhausted that they fell asleep. They had to leave at dawn. If they paused for a moment, they would have to quickly make a fire to cook. Even though they were rushing towards the Huangshui River, they could not even continue their journey.
There was no time for bathing, and the entire march was filled with a stinking stench.
This severe and difficult environment also caused people and animals to fall sick and die constantly, even though April was the best time outside the Great Wall. The eldest prince's eye disease became more and more serious, and the king and queen could only ride the same horse.
, even Qin Huizhi only had one cart of belongings left, and had to learn to drive by himself.
But no one dared to stop.
Finally, on April 28, the fleeing team, which had less than 4,000 troops and a total of more than 30,000 people, arrived at a place with abundant water and grass.
This place is an important transportation node in the lower reaches of Huangshui River. Crossing the water from north to south, traveling east and west, to the northeast is Huanglong Prefecture (today's Changchun area), and down the Huangshui River turning south is Xianping Prefecture (later Siping to the south).
area), going upstream is naturally Linhuang Mansion, and heading to the southwest is Dading Mansion (later Chengde area).
In fact, although there is no city here, it is recognized as a transportation place outside the Great Wall. There are also many post stations and markets built during the Liao Dynasty... In later generations, this place even had the name Tongliao.
Yes, on this afternoon, the emperor of the Jin Kingdom, the ruling princes, all the ministers, ministers, and generals arrived at their loyal Tongliao. And everyone knows that as long as you pass this place, you will reach the Jurchen tradition and core sphere of influence.
, and will also get rid of the hidden dangers brought by the Khitan and Xi people’s settlements.
This made almost the entire escape team feel joyful and excited.
And probably aware of the corresponding emotions, Xingzai also announced the "Kingdom Lord's Will". Instead of the constant urging of the march in the past, he set up camp here in advance to take a short rest.
When the news came out, the escape team rejoiced and built the camp. After a short meal, they couldn't bear it anymore and began to take baths one after another.
The nobles who were qualified to occupy private houses remained reserved. They could wait for the attendants to fetch water for washing. A small number of Jurchen female nobles could even wait until the maid poured hot water into the bucket.
But the sergeants were too lazy to care. After taking off their armor, they went into the water one after another.
For a time, the entire Huangshui was filled with black heads and white bodies.
"teacher."
Wanyan Xiyin stood in front of the pontoon, his eyes swept downriver, and then looked calmly at the blue sky and green land on the other side, thoughtfully, but unexpectedly, a special shout suddenly came from behind, and Xiyin did not look back.
, you will know who is coming.
"Teacher."
Heshi Lieliangbi shouted again, and bowed respectfully to the other party behind his back before walking forward. "What are you thinking, master?"
"I didn't think about anything, I was just in a daze."
Wanyan Xiyin's words were straightforward, just as he behaved these days, rational, calm and decisive.
Or just be more direct. Xi Yin deserves the most credit for the escape team being able to get here safely... His status, his familiarity with the army and the court, his impartiality in dealing with things, and his firm attitude make him the leader this time.
The actual organizer and arbiter of the escape.
Relatively speaking, although the eldest prince Wanyan Onben had prestige and the largest military force, he knew nothing about general affairs and did not even have the experience of independently leading troops on long-distance marches.
After all, the leader of the country is only an eighteen-year-old boy, and I dare not say that everyone looks down upon him. However, in the face of such a major matter of life and death for the country and the nation, this age is really embarrassing, and he does not care about the things that were not given to him at this sensitive time.
All authority is given to him.
As for people like He Shilie Taiyu, Wanyan Yinshu, Wanyan Talan, let alone others.
"What are you thinking about?" Xiyin turned around and noticed that the other party had not taken a bath at all and was still wearing dirty and smelly leather armor. "Why did you come to me?"
"The students were worried about the future of the country and tribe, and felt uneasy, so they came to the teacher to clarify their doubts." Heshi Lieliangbi hesitated for a moment, but finally chose to be honest to a certain extent. "It stands to reason that if you escape now...
...At the very least, he escaped the pursuit of the majestic army, but when he thought about his father's relationship with His Highness the King of Liao, the King of Wei never returned. When he arrived at Huanglong Mansion, the grudges, rivalries, and factions that had been suppressed in Yanjing were immediately revealed.
It's about to reappear, and there are people from both sides following it, and the Song army is pressing down, so I'm afraid it will be another bloody storm..."
"Then what?"
Wanyan Xiyin's expression remained unchanged.
"Then...teacher..." Liangbi answered seriously. "When we get to Huanglong Mansion, the teacher may continue to stabilize the situation? Or does the teacher have other ways to deal with it? In fact, the whole staff respects the teacher, so the Zhao Guan family also agreed.
The teacher’s name is Zaizhi... If the teacher is willing to take control of the situation, the students are also willing to do their best.”
Xiyin was silent for a moment, but remained calm: "I can stabilize the situation at this time because of the shock of King Wei's death to the generals and the desire to survive of the fleeing people... When we get to Huanglong Mansion... we don't even need to go to Huanglong Mansion.
I feel that I may not be able to control anyone... You must know that the Great Jin Kingdom is like this. After a while, it still depends on the property of each department. I am a distant branch of the Wanyan family, who can I control?
You can master it for a while, but you cannot master it forever."
"I thought it was okay." Liangbi reacted a little strangely when he heard this, feeling a little relieved and a little sad at the same time.
"It is indeed possible." Xi Yin shook his head in reply. "You can rely on education and system to win people's hearts, just like when the official family of Zhao and Song Dynasties fled south, they could always win people's hearts just by thinking... But the people of Song Dynasty did not give it
We have this time and opportunity.”
He Shi Lieliang Bi deeply thought so.
"Liangbi." Xiyin looked at the dirty leather armor on the opponent's body again and suddenly spoke.
"The students are here." Heshi Lieliangbi quickly handed over his hand.
"If I have the opportunity, I still have to teach Chinese, write Chinese characters, and read Chinese books...those things are really good, much better than what we have." Xiyin explained seriously.
"This is the long-cherished wish of the students." Liangbi said yes without hesitation. "And it's not just the students. The students' generation, from the king to several princes and nephews, all understand this truth."
Xiyin nodded and said no more.
After waiting for a while, an attendant came to report that the king and the queen had finished bathing, and asked Prime Minister Xi Yin to meet him in front of the emperor. The two took advantage of the situation and said goodbye.
Today's matter seems to have ended here.
However, within just half an hour, the camp suddenly became chaotic.
The cause of the matter is very simple...the sergeant took a bath first, and soon after that, when it was getting darker in the evening, the accompanying women couldn't bear it anymore, so they tried to take a bath in the water under the cover of reeds and curtains.
As the saying goes, when the soldiers are full and warm, they think about sex. In the wilderness, after taking a bath, the soldiers had enough to eat and drink, and had nothing to do, so they started to think of women's families, which soon led to sporadic rape incidents.
In this regard, Xi Yin's attitude was very resolute and decisive, and he dispatched fierce security forces to quickly suppress and execute him.
But soon, several members of the Golden Kingdom were horrified to discover that their speed in dealing with such incidents could not keep up with the speed at which similar incidents occurred... Rapes and robberies began to appear in large numbers like green grass on the prairie after a rain.
Immediately afterwards, there were incidents of crowds gathering to resist Hezha Mengan to enforce military law, and organized attacks on women's family members and their luggage.
At this point, everyone understands what happened.
The army's patience has reached its limit, and a mutiny is imminent.
Of course, there are countless veterans with military experience in the team, who are good at silver skills and lazy, including Zhen Lubu, Jiagu Wulibu and others immediately unanimously suggested that the king of the country issue an order to give all the maids brought by the nobles.
, and released some wealth, especially hard currency such as gold, silver, cloth, furs, etc. as rewards.
Without any extra thought, this suggestion was quickly adopted and implemented immediately... Even a person as fastidious as Xiyin wisely kept silent... Then, he finally managed to end the mutiny before it completely darkened.
He suppressed it with both grace and power.
