Jin Wushu was breathing rapidly and was speechless.
"This is actually not the first time you have used this method. When the Liao Kingdom surrendered to the Song Dynasty, General Guo Yaoshi surrendered to the Song Dynasty, and the Jin Kingdom made trouble and asked the Song Kingdom to kill his subordinates. Guo Pharmacist was also angry and disheartened towards the Song Dynasty, so He surrendered to the Kingdom of Jin. You keep saying that you like me, but in fact, you are just using me as a bargaining chip, a tool to attack Yue Pengju's dignity, and by the way, it is just a trophy! "
Seeing that Jin Wushu was speechless, she continued: "Do you really think I am so arrogant that a mere woman can save a country in danger? When more than thirty princesses from the Song Palace fell to Beijing as slaves and concubines, among them There are many people who are more beautiful than me, why can’t they win the return of their father and brother?”
"In the Golden Camp, when you finally let me go, you just left Kinses behind to track my whereabouts. However, you didn't expect that I painted Kinses and dyed his fur and the markings on his head. I disguised myself and escaped your eyes and ears..."
Jin Wushu had never understood the reason for her "disappearance", but now he suddenly realized it.
She stared into his eyes: "You have been merciful to me many times, and I have never been grateful to you. At one time, I regarded you as an upright gentleman. Now I realize that you were just pretending to like me. Use me and humiliate me!"
"Hua Rong, it is true that I want to start a war! However, I also promised to make you the princess! The prince of the Jin Kingdom has never been allowed to marry a Han woman as his wife. Even you, the princess of the Song Dynasty, have never been able to be the official general of the Jin Kingdom. Because you said you didn't want to be a concubine, I made you my queen, and I didn't insult you."
"No humiliation?" She chuckled: "You are just a defeated general under my husband, so why do you want me to stoop down and marry you?"
Jin Wushu was punched so hard that he almost jumped up with anger. After a while, he sat down angrily and gasped for breath. His repeated defeats at the hands of Yue Pengju were his biggest regret and biggest heartache in his life. This time He was the most resolute advocate of the Song Dynasty's resolution. One of the reasons was that he wanted to find an opportunity to compete with Yue Peng again to avenge his previous humiliation.
"Yue Pengju relied entirely on his own wisdom and bravery to defeat the enemy! And you don't hesitate to use yourself and women to humiliate the enemy! This is the difference between you and Yue Pengju!" She stood up calmly: "Since there is a man like Yue Pengju who looks up to the mountains, , How could I surrender to a young man and humiliate his surname? Jin Wushu, if you want me to marry you, you must defeat my husband first!"
His chest felt tight for a while, as if he would soon be out of breath. After a while, Jin Wushu struggled to squeeze out a few words: "Okay, just wait."
She had already reached the door, turned around, and suddenly smiled.
It was the first time that Jin Wushu saw her smiling so brightly, and even the paleness on her face when she first entered the door was gone. His heart was shaken, but he heard her gentle voice: "Haha, Jin Wushu, you are the best in this life." No chance! You will never be my husband’s opponent!”
Jin Wushu watched her walk out the door, his chest rising and falling rapidly.
Wu Qimai ran in: "Fourth Prince, let her go?"
"Let her go! Don't let anyone stop her!"
"yes."
Jin Wushu stood by the window, watching her back go away. Her back was slender and had such beautiful lines. He gritted his teeth with hatred. No matter what, he had to fight Song Yi to see how powerful Yue Pengju was. What a situation!
Because of the hot weather and the envoy Jin's constant pressure, Zhao Deji was extremely depressed these days and had no intention of finding any concubines to sleep with him.
A few days later, news came that the Jin envoy had decided to return, withdraw his troops as agreed, and stop fighting together. He only urged the Song Dynasty to send the requested money and silk in time.
Wang Boyan and others, who were originally too nervous to communicate, suddenly discovered that the Jin envoy no longer asked about Hua Rong. They thought things had turned around, and they all smiled and reported to the emperor that the Jin people had agreed to the peace terms and were about to withdraw.
Zhao Deji naturally did not believe everything, but looking around, Zongze was dead, and every day he heard the news of the defeat of the Song army. After much thought, he decided to convene a military meeting immediately.
Those who came to the court included Wang Boyan, Huang Qianshan and several other ministers Zhu Shengfei, Zhang Jun and others.
Zhang Jun was finally worried and asked again and again: "Master Wang, will the Jin army really retreat?"
Wang Boyan firmly believed in the way of peace negotiation and sneered: "There is nothing wrong in the world, and it is only for mediocre people to disturb themselves."
Zhang and Zhu saw that he was so steadfast in his oath and that the emperor trusted him, so they had no choice but to give up.
After everyone retreated, Eunuch Kang came in and whispered: "Guan family, Hua Rong wants to see you."
Zhao Deji was very upset when he thought about this peace negotiation. He was speechless and said, "No! Let her go back."
"yes."
Hua Rong stood at the door waiting for a long time, but received a reply from Eunuch Kang. She was silent for a moment, and called him "Kang Daguan" according to the honorific title given to eunuchs outside: "Kang Daguan, please give me some advice about the emperor, Jinren." We have absolutely no intention of retreating. Don’t listen to the slanderous words of Wang Boyan and others.”
Eunuch Kang shook his head. Accompanying the emperor is like accompanying a tiger. How could the emperor listen
"Your Majesty's safety is also Official Kang's safety. If you want to be safe, you must make thorough preparations."
Eunuch Kang agreed to this suggestion, but Hua Rong had no choice but to leave.
Hua Rong walked out of the palace gate and saw Zhang Xian waiting aside, so he said, "Go find Pengju."
Zhang Xian was ordered to protect her and refused to leave: "What will you do if I leave?"
"The Jin people are ambitious, but the court is unprepared. I'm afraid that Jin Wushu will start a war soon... Oh, Zhang Xian, you go first. Maybe Pengju is coming to Yingtian. Give him this letter. Inside is some information about the Jin Army that I found out this time."
"oh?"
"Currently, the emperor's supervision over me is relaxed. I will look for an opportunity to leave. When the time comes, we will meet at the agreed place."
Zhang Xian saw that what she said made sense, so he took the letter and left.
The Jin envoy left, and peace returned to Yingtian for the time being. On this day, Wang Boyan left a post and reported that the emperor's absence from the concubine for a long time would not only damage the dragon's body, but also worry about the Zhao family's heirs. Although the emperor already had a son, Spreading branches and increasing the population has always been one of the great responsibilities of the emperor. Therefore, in order to be "responsible" to the emperor and the country, Wang Boyan loyally sent more than 20 beauties to Zhao Deji to enrich the harem.
Zhao De was basically emotionless, but when he saw that one of the beauties named Song Xixi was bright and good-looking, she played the pipa well, and her voice was as sweet as tears. After playing the song, he pointed at her and said, "Okay, you can stay with me." Already."
Song Xixi was overjoyed that she had been favored by the emperor as soon as she arrived. Pan Yingying on the other side was jealous when she saw her being hugged away by the emperor, but she did not dare to say a word.
At night, the ecstatic breathing sounds came from the goose-yellow warm tent.
The palace maid and eunuch on duty outside the door could clearly hear the moans coming from Song Xixi:
"The official family and the slave family are in pain..."
"I also love and pity you."
"In the official family, slaves endure the pain like this because they hope to get the title of Lady of the Country..."
"No, you just entered the palace, it will be half a year later."
"Guanjia, this slave hurts so much..."
"Okay, after three months, I will make you the country's lady..."
According to Zhao Deji's promotion rules for his concubines, everyone knew that Song Xixi must be very popular with him, because even if he loved Zhang Yingying, he had never been promoted so quickly.
The spring light was shining brightly in the house, and Xu Caizhi and Eunuch Kang ran in in a hurry.
The palace maid and Feng Yi stopped them: "The emperor is still here..."
Xu Caizhi stopped, but Eunuch Kang opened the guard's hand, rushed in, and shouted: "Guan family, the Jin army is coming, less than a hundred miles away from Yingtian..."
Zhao Deji only felt that the most enchanting part of his body shrank in an instant and almost rolled off Song Xixi. Several eunuchs and maids rushed up to him and quickly put on his armor and turban. Eunuch Kang hurriedly took another handle and sheath. A sword inlaid with gold and jade was worn on his waist.
Zhao Deji and the eunuchs were about to leave the pavilion. At this time, Song Xixi also got up from the bed, hurriedly put on her underwear, jumped out of bed and hugged Zhao Deji's legs: "I would like to accompany the Hu Guan's family..."
Zhao Deji saw her with disheveled hair and disheveled clothes. How would it be appropriate for her to go out like this? He immediately pushed her away and said, "Madam, change your clothes quickly before walking with the other maids."
Song Xixi was also eager to escape. She stepped forward again and tightly pulled Zhao Deji's sleeve, pleading softly: "I can't wait, I want to go with the official family."
Zhao Deji struggled to break away, and his sleeves were torn with a "chi" sound. He was furious, lifted Song Xixi away with a palm, turned around, and hurried out with Eunuch Kang.
Zhao Deji rushed to the main hall and saw the new Prime Minister Huang Qianshan and the guard and military commander Liu Zhengyan coming in a hurry. He hurriedly said: "Prime Minister, Jin Wushu is calling, what should I do?"
Huang Qianshan knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, please leave this place immediately."
He hesitated: "There are still tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in Yingtian, and Yue Pengju is rushing back. They can arrive in two days. Is it still possible to fight?"
"Although Yue Pengju once defeated Jin Wushu, Jin Wushu's army pressed down this time and his ambitions were for the official family. For the Jin army, it was just a matter of victory or defeat. For me, the Song Dynasty, it was a matter of life and death. The official family ,can’t hesitate any more…”
For the Jin army, it was just a matter of victory or defeat, but for me, the Song Dynasty, it was a matter of life and death. These words hit Zhao Deji's weak point, and he immediately made a decision and fled overnight.
Zhao Deji ran out of the hall, and Wu Zhan, the Chinese Army officer in charge of assisting the defense, had already rushed in: "Guan family, hurry up, the Jin Army is coming."
"How many troops are there?"
"I don't know yet. It's hard to tell in the dark. The Jin army will kill anyone they see. Officials, please leave quickly."
Zhao Deji hurried out and saw a sky-high fire in the city. He said anxiously: "Huang Qianshan and Wang Boyan are escorting us. All the ministers should run away quickly..."
Wu Zhan was very embarrassed: "This..."
Zhao Deji didn't care to say anything more, Xu Caizhi protected him and turned around to go out.
In the pavilion, Song Xixi was pushed to the ground. Her whole body ached. The emperor's palm was not light, but at this time she did not care to cry and cry out for pain. She hurriedly ordered the four maids to help her up. She simply put on her coat and packed a bag. Xiruan said with tears in her eyes: "I used to be rich and powerful, but today I know that accompanying the emperor is like accompanying a tiger. The officials are so unkind and unjust, so we might as well return to the people."
A palace maid said in fear: "Will the officials punish us?"
"The Clay Bodhisattva cannot protect himself when he crosses the river. How can he control us? Let's go..."
Because of her resentment, she ran out and shouted: "The captives are about to kill us. The officials do not care about our lives and are running away alone. Now the court cannot be a court, and the palace cannot be a palace. Let's run for our lives..."
As soon as this explosive news spread, the Yingtian Palace immediately became a mess. The eunuchs and maids fled desperately, and no one took care of the formerly delicate Pan Yingying, Zhang Yingying, etc. Fortunately, Zhang Yingying was always able to win over people's hearts and was smart, so she had already prepared. After several sets of military uniforms, her two confidant maids and eunuchs changed her clothes and immediately sneaked away; Pan Yingying, who was usually domineering, actually asked someone to prepare a sedan for her at such a moment. When she was escaping, the nobles in the palace The lowliness and lowliness no longer existed, and no one paid attention to her at all. The maids and eunuchs fled for their lives, but no one paid attention to her.
