(Ha! I finally persisted until the end of the year, and the two alliances and book friends also passed on the power of support to the end of the year. I am very happy! Here, Ishiro says "Happy New Year's Eve" with great gratitude!)
In the early morning, Huanyiyuan started another busy day.
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????Out of the North and South Courtyards who were summoned to serve in the palace after receiving the jade certificate, they got up early, dressed up, applied powder, and dressed up carefully. The palace servants who were not selected, except for those who were sick and young, the rest followed the Jurchen rough messenger old women to visit the pavilions in various palaces, sweep and clean the dust, and respond to the messengers.
The palace guests who were summoned to the palace, after being decorated, gathered in the front courtyard and inner courtyard, lining up in two rows. Therefore, the daughters of Liao Zong are in one line, and the concubines of Song Zong are in one line, undergoing inspection by their mothers.
Inspections are divided into two types: "regular inspection" and "security inspection":
Frequent inspection is a routine inspection to check whether the palace people are dressed appropriately, whether there are any unexpected health conditions (diseases or menstruation), etc.; the security check goes without saying, these palace people are not allowed to carry any metal except jewelry. If prohibited items are found, the punishment will be unusually severe.
Today, the person on duty today is the fat and fierce Jurchen woman again. She stares with a pair of goldfish eyes and looks at each one with bulging eyes. Basically, she can scare the weak people to the point of peeing without even having to search her body.
When the Jurchen old woman inspected the end of Song Zongji's queue, she found a woman whispering something to two girls. The woman was talking carefully to the two girls with a caring look on her face, but she didn't even notice the old Jurchen woman appearing. On the other hand, when the two girls saw the old Jurchen woman, their faces were full of horror, and their chattering little mouths suddenly shut up.
As soon as the woman turned her head, a small piece of flesh on her arm was pinched by a pair of fat pincer-like fingers. Even though it was already autumn and her clothes were thicker, the penetrating power of the clip still made the woman's beautiful face pale, and her beautiful face suddenly became distorted: "Mom, Bingyi knows that I am wrong please, ah!" Please let go"
Two little girls watched their mother suffer. Tears welled up at once. He covered his mouth with his two white and tender hands, sobbing constantly, but never daring to make a sound. Obviously, he has experienced such scenes frequently and knows that crying is useless. On the contrary, it will lead to greater torture.
"Grandma is very angry. The consequences will be serious" written clearly on the old Jurchen woman's face. He twisted his fat fingers hard, completely ignoring the fact that the woman was shivering in pain and bursting into tears. It has a wide and convex catfish mouth. The voice was squeezed out from the sticky mouth: "Xing Bingyi, don't think that you are just trying to put on some airs because you have the title of "Queen" on your head. Aunt Su Li tells you, it's useless! You Song Song The queen of the country is just a prostitute here! She is just a cheap maid! If you hadn¡¯t received the jade certificate today and wanted to serve in the palace, I would have screwed up your charming face! "
Aunt Su Lijie smiled strangely, feeling extremely happy that she could abuse a country.
This woman is none other than Xing Bingyi, the wife of Jiaguo, the first wife of Emperor Jianyan Zhao Gou. As Zhao Gou ascended the throne, Xing Bingyi was also revered as the queen. However, this extremely honorable title does not bring any benefits to Xing Bingyi. Instead, it brings more humiliation and abuse. People have such a dark mentality, and they suppress the queen of a country. , wantonly molesting; or wantonly torturing and scolding a country, the pleasure is incomparable to that of torturing other women.
Aunt Su Li is enjoying the feeling of exhilaration at this moment - for a servant in the palace to be able to find trouble to torture a queen, the feeling can only be described as exhilarating.
It¡¯s a pity that she had only been happy for a few minutes when she suddenly screamed like a killing pig - the thick hand she was violently attacking Xing Bingyi was hit hard by something, and she clearly heard a crunching sound.
"Damn it! My hand ugh!" Aunt Su Li's arm, as thick and short as a pillar, was twisted into an angle that was impossible under normal conditions. She was rolling all over the floor, her face covered with tears and snot. It looked like more How disgusting.
Seeing the miserable condition of this evil woman, all the princesses were both happy and frightened. Their eyes focused on one person - five steps away, a middle-aged Jurchen man calmly and calmly put a small bone into his sleeve, and then He stepped forward and saluted Xing Bingyi respectfully: "Wuling Simou pays homage to the Queen. Please move your jade toe and follow Wu Ling Simou to the Chinese Embassy to meet an important person."
Xing Bingyi was so overwhelmed by this unexpected situation that she even forgot about the pain in her arm - in fact, her arm was no longer painful when it was twisted, but was numb.
????????????????????????????????????????????? ???????????????? ????????????? ??????????? ?????????????? ????????????? ????????????? ?????????????? ???????????? ?????????????? ????????????? ????????????? ????????????? ??? ??Suddenly, a howling voice came: "It's you again! It's you again, you are the one who killed a thousand swords! You, you broke my hand" It was the curse of Aunt Su Li.
Wu Ling Simou turned his head, his respectful expression immediately turned as cold as iron: "You old godly woman, if you don't shut up, you'll break more than just your hands!"
Aunt Su Li was frightened and unwilling to give in. She shouted: "This Xing Bingyi isYou're so brave after receiving the jade certificate"
"You are so bold!" Wu Lingsi shouted decisively. Not only Aunt Su Li, but also all the girls present were frightened to death. If this old woman wasn't so lowly that anyone could kill her for her worth, Wuling Simou would have really wanted to beat her to death on the spot.
Wuling Simou threw a silver medal into the arms of the timid old Jurchen woman who was on the side, and said coldly: "The Lord of the Kingdom has ordered that all summons will be canceled from now on. There is also an oral instruction that all women from the Song Dynasty, no matter they are Zongji is still an ordinary woman, and she immediately sent her out of Huanyiyuan and returned her to the Southern Dynasty!"
Although Wuling Simou's words were short, they struck like thunderbolts on the heads of the women of Song and Liao. The Song girls couldn't believe it, and after asking for confirmation again and again, they all cried and laughed, as if they were crazy; while the Liao girls hurriedly asked what their fate was. The answer I got was "This is the welfare of the Song people and has nothing to do with the Khitan people." This psychological gap was so great that it was difficult for the Liao girls to accept it. All of them looked ashen, weeping in despair, and some even fainted
The influence of the power of the state on individuals is so vividly displayed in the face of the completely different destinies of the women in Song and Liao.
As if in a dream, when Xing Bingyi walked out of the gate of Huanyiyuan with his two daughters, the feeling was completely different from the past when he came in and out of here - this time, he would be far away from the wolf's den. Get a new life and return to your homeland.
Xing Bingyi¡¯s tears rolled down in big drops, blurring his vision and the surrounding scenery. She only held the little hands of her two daughters tightly with both hands, looked at the blurry figure in front of her, followed closely, walked faster and faster, and never looked back
¡¡
"This is the Chinese Embassy. Please get off the carriage with the Empress and the two young empresses." Wu Ling Simou opened the curtain of the carriage and stood with his hands in a respectful manner.
Xing Bingyi glanced at the Jurchen official. A full stomach. But I didn¡¯t know where to start.
Wu Ling Si Mou also seemed to know what he was worried about. He forced out a smile and said: "The queen has doubts in her heart. After entering the embassy, ??someone will clear her up."
Xing Bingyi bit his lip. Suppress your anxiety. He hugged his two daughters tightly and got off the carriage, following Wu Ling Simou into the Chinese Embassy.
Go through the square inside the museum and pass through the Yimen and Jiaomen. From the side door next to the main hall, you come to the reception hall on the right side of the second hall.
Wu Ling Simou signaled Xing Bingyi to go in on his own. Looking at the frail back of the tortured young queen, Wu Ling Simou's face was gloomy, and he didn't know what he was thinking. After Xing Bingyi and the two little empresses disappeared from the door, Wuling Simou turned around and left. Before he could walk out of the side door of the second hall, he heard heartbreaking cries coming from the living room.
Wu Ling Simou shook his head, quickened his pace, and left in a hurry.
Xing Bingyi was crying, and his two daughters were crying too, but this cry was from tears of joy. The one who cried with them was her mother, Queen Wei of Xuanhe of the Jianyan Dynasty.
The title of Empress Dowager Wei was naturally given by her son who was thousands of miles away and only knew how to play tricks. After Empress Dowager Wei moved north, it has been occupied by King Gaitian Saili. Until Saili disappeared two years ago, and then was occupied by Wanyan Pu's slaves. Oddly enough, the Jinren of the Song Dynasty forced all the beautiful daughters of Zhao Guan's family into Huanyiyuan, but this mother-in-law, who was nearly forty years old, was very much in demand. Investigating the reason, if this woman is not extremely charming, it is because of the bad taste of human nature - it feels so good to hold the biological mother of the Emperor of the Southern Dynasty under her and make her moan and beg for mercy!
Queen Mother Wei had not seen her daughter-in-law for many years, and she never expected that her two granddaughters, who were babbling and learning to speak, would actually grow up to be seven or eight years old.
"Buddha's blessing! God's blessing!" Queen Mother Wei called her granddaughter's name and hugged her, feeling a mixture of sadness and joy. Three generations of grandparents cried together.
I don¡¯t know how long I cried before I heard a deep voice saying: "It is a great joy to be able to return to the Central Plains alive. The Queen Mother and the Empress should be happy."
Queen Mother Wei and Xing Bingyi were startled and looked back in panic - but outside the reception hall, they saw a man in a thick coat, about fifty years old, with gray temples, with tears in his eyes, and nodded gently to the Queen Mother.
Xing Bingyi instinctively protected his two daughters. He looked carefully and felt that they looked familiar, but he could not recognize them for a moment. However, Empress Dowager Wei had been in the palace for a long time and had known a lot of people and had a deep memory. After watching it for a while, she cried out: "Could it be His Highness Prince Su?"
The old man held his hands in tears: "It's Zhao Wu."
"Prince Su¡ª¡ª"
It was another cry of sorrow and joy. When asked about the situation after the farewell, the old King Su burst into tears. What good treatment can be given to those who have lost their country? Since the women of the clan are prostitutes, the men of the clan are naturally slaves. Most of them were sold to merchants and military households, and they spent their days doing menial jobs such as cutting grass, milking cows, feeding horses and herding sheep. They eat coarse food, wear shabby coats, and the severe cold in the north is unbearable. In addition, the work is not done well, and it is inevitable to be whippedFive years, not even one out of ten.
"Compared with these devastated clans, Old King Su was not bad. After all, he was the brother of Zhao Guan's family. He was granted a low-level title and a servant. Although life is hard, I can still survive.
They had also heard about the death of Huizong Zhao Ji. In the Jurchen capital, no one dared to say more than a word. They could only express their grief through the feeling of gathering together and crying.
After a long time, I asked how Yuan Sheng was doing. King Su didn't know much about this. He only knew that Zhao Dalang was at least still alive, and the Jin people didn't seem to have any intention of eradicating the roots. After listening to it for a while, I felt a little at ease.
Until then, Xing Bingyi trembled and expressed the question in his heart: "Is what the Jin man said true? Can we really return to our homeland?"
Queen Mother Wei agreed and said: "When I was deported, the deputy marshal of the Jin Kingdom personally confirmed that it was indeed the case."
Xing Bingyi's voice trembled with joy: "So, Cao Xun successfully escaped back to the Southern Dynasty, and the officials asked the Jin people to return us"
Xing Bingyi said this for a reason. During the Jingkang crisis in the past, Huizong Zhao and Xing Bingyi were escorted by Wanyan Zonghan on the same road, and returned to the gold via Yunzhong. On the way, Cao Xun, a Wuyi doctor, was sent to look for an opportunity to return south. Huizong gave Cao Xun a vest with secret words written on it: "We must do everything possible to save your parents quickly."
Huizong also cried and asked Cao Xun, and told Zhao Gou: "Don't forget the suffering I suffered on the way north after being captured this time." He also gave Cao Xun a white gauze handkerchief to wipe his tears, " When you see Queen Kang, express my thoughts and my pain. I am afraid that father and son will never meet each other in this life. Only by clarifying the Central Plains as soon as possible and regaining the land can his parents be saved."
Xing Bingyi took off a gold earring that he usually wears and entrusted it to Cao Xun, saying: "I will tell you, King. I wish I could have this earring earlier so that we can meet each other. If you see my father, tell him that I am fine." "Return early"!
Never thought about it. This wait. That¡¯s five whole years. "Return early" has almost become "not return".
Even though you have been late for so long and suffered so many hardships, you know that your husband, who is the emperor, has not forgotten your mother and son. Xing Bingyi still felt great comfort and joy, and couldn't help but shed tears again.
But at this moment, a voice came from outside the door, and Duotou poured cold water on them: "The person who put pressure on the Jin Kingdom to release the Queen Mother, Yuan Sheng and the Queen this time is not Emperor Jianyan, but Emperor Jianyan." It¡¯s His Royal Highness King Hua!¡±
The Queen Mother, the Empress, and King Su looked back in surprise, but saw a man in the hall, Zhuoli, who was wearing the Southern Dynasty clothes and the official Song Dynasty uniform. They bowed to the three of them: "Tianshu's deputy envoy to the Jin Dynasty, Hong Hao, has met the Queen Mother." , Queen, King Su.¡±
The two queens and the king hurriedly returned the courtesy, then looked at each other and asked in unison: "King Hua? Which brother is he from the official family?"
Hong Hao smiled slightly: "You two saints and princes may have never heard of King Hua, but you must have heard of the name of 'evil spirit', right?"
The three of them nodded in unison. The name of this evil spirit had long been spread among the more than 100,000 survivors of the Song Dynasty who were taken captive to the north. His deeds were like miracles, and no one knew about them.
Hong Hao waved up his sleeves, looked south and bowed, his voice passionate: "The evil spirit is the King of Hua, the leader of the Tianzhu Army, and the commander-in-chief of the Northern Expedition to the Kingdom of Jin!"
"The Northern Expedition? The Northern Expedition! So that's it, that's it" King Su was so excited that his whole body trembled and tears stained his beard.
Empress Wei, Xing Bingyi and their two daughters also bowed to the south, with tears in their eyes. How many times had they dreamed of the Northern Expedition, and now it has finally come true, why don¡¯t they shed tears? No matter who this King of Hua is, in the minds of the captives of the old Song Dynasty, he will be the Buddha of all families.
At this time, Hong Hao revealed his intention of inviting the three people to the Chinese embassy: "The Jin people will return all the captives from the Song Dynasty in the near future and pay a huge sum of money. The two saints and the prince are the most respected, please come forward to appease them."
The three of them were so happy that they could only nod their heads, not knowing what to say. Dengdeng followed Hong Hao out of the second hall, passed the main hall, passed through the Yimen and the corner door, and saw that the hall was still empty just now. The front square is now bustling with people and cars and horses.
Among the crowds of people hugging each other and crying, they saw many familiar faces they thought were no longer alive: the Jiade Emperor Zhao Yupan who was occupied by Wanyan Zongpan, the Shunde Emperor Zhao Yingluo who was occupied by Wanyan Zonghan, and the Emperor Jiade who was occupied by Wanyan Zonghan. Yan Xiebao occupied Zhao Zhuzhu, the concubine of the Huifu Emperor, Jiang Zuimei, the side concubine of King Kang who also lived in Huanyiyuan, and Zhu Fengying, the Princess of Yun, as well as numerous concubines, palace maids, tribute maidens, and singers who could not be named. trick¡¡
Suddenly, Xing Bingyi seemed to have discovered something. He walked step by step to a row of vehicles filled with large black boxes, and stared at the seal on the black box, which read, "In the second year of Jingkang, signed by Kaifeng Mansion." Xing Bingyi stretched out his trembling hands and suddenly tore off the seal.
Jin Bing, who was watching on the side, wanted to stop him, but Hong Hao glared at him and stopped him.
box boxWhen he opened it, golden light leaked out, and his eyes were filled with brilliance - it was actually a gold ingot as big as a fist, ranging from twenty taels to fifty taels!
Xing Bingyi grabbed a gold ingot, and it was clearly marked with the imprint of the official treasure of the Song Dynasty - this was actually sold to the Jin people by the monarchs and ministers of the Song Dynasty at the price of countless concubines, concubines, palace maids, and tribute maidens. In exchange for the compensation of gold and silver What is sad and ridiculous is that in the end, no matter the women, the gold and silver, the country, or the ancestral foundation, they all did not escape and fell into the trap of the golden man
Where are the gold ingots? They are all the flesh and blood of the women of the Song Dynasty!
Xing Bingyi threw himself on a gold ingot, crying until his heart broke.
What I ate was vomited out, and what I lost was brought back, but the wisps of fragrant souls on the way north have long been scattered among the clouds and waters of my homeland thousands of miles away (To be continued)
