Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    When Prince Rong Wanyan Hongxi left the Imperial City of Kaifeng, he took Emperor Wanyan Xu of the Jin Kingdom with him. The reason he used was that the emperor wanted to lead a personal expedition to boost the morale of the soldiers at the front and fight against the Mongolian invasion. The ministers may have doubts in their hearts, but  But she didn't dare to bring it up, so the Empress Dowager was the only one left in the Imperial City of Jin to take charge of the overall situation.  Are you going to abandon the imperial city?  The ministers guessed that King Rong did not intend to abandon the imperial city, but only gave up the command of the imperial city. He took Emperor Wanyanxu away just in case. The main battlefield of this war between the Three Kingdoms was in Kaifeng City.  , it would be fine if everything goes well, but once the imperial city is breached, at least the Jin Dynasty Emperor will not become a prisoner. Even if everything goes well, the third prince is also worried about the Song Dynasty's reaction after defeating the Mongolian army. This is what he has taken away.  The real reason for Yan Xu.  Yang Kang could only smile bitterly at this. He and King Rong trusted each other, but at the same time they were wary of each other. He came to Kaifeng City in person to express his sincerity for cooperation. King Rong handing over Kaifeng City to him was also a sign of trust, but they were worried.  Each other will change their minds, which after all is related to the rise and fall of a country.  Above the Jin Kingdom's court, a thick curtain blocked the sight of all the ministers. There was a chair behind the curtain, and two people were sitting on the chair. This was the first time that the Queen Mother of Jin Kingdom listened to politics behind the curtain, and she was inevitably nervous.  She grabbed the hand of the person next to her, trying to get some support.  After the palace official announced the start of the court meeting, there was a period of silence.  The courtiers didn't know how to communicate with the Empress Dowager. If they asked too difficult questions and seemed aggressive, what would be the meaning of the meeting if they asked some indifferent questions, especially at such a critical moment?  Silence is not the solution. The court meeting will continue, and Prime Minister Xu Ding stepped forward to write a memorial.  What surprised the ministers was that the Empress Dowager responded crisply and succinctly. Although her voice was soft, her words were sharp and could often go straight to the core of the problem. This gave the ministers a very strange feeling. The tone of the Empress Dowager's words.  It was very inconsistent with what was said. As the court meeting progressed, the Queen Mother's voice became softer and softer, and a little scattered.  Yang Kang noticed this problem. Originally, he whispered in Concubine Rong's ear, and then Concubine Rong said it according to the script. But as time went by, Concubine Rong gradually leaned on him, and the tone began to change. The woman's ears were very sensitive.  She was sensitive. Whispering in his ear for such a long time would always cause a physical reaction. He had no choice but to hold Concubine Rong in his arms and use internal energy to help Concubine Rong calm down and concentrate.  After the Empress Dowager of Jin regained consciousness, she was extremely embarrassed. The ministers could not wait for a long time for the Empress Dowager's reply. They thought that the Empress Dowager was not clear, so they put it down temporarily and discussed the next topic. At this time, the Empress Dowager returned to normal, but of course she was not completely back to normal.  , she was in the man's arms, and her voice became softer and weaker.  The first time the Empress Dowager of the Jin Dynasty dropped the curtain ended like this. Overall, it was a success. Beyond the expectations of the courtiers, the Empress Dowager handled the situation appropriately and was very familiar with the government affairs of the court. However, the courtiers were also a little worried that this would not be the case.  Is it a sign of political interference in the harem?  Fortunately, the Empress Dowager was from a humble background and would not have any relatives or gang members, otherwise it would be a disaster for the Jin Kingdom.  After the ministers withdrew from the court, the Empress Dowager completely collapsed in the arms of His Majesty the Emperor. This scene was not unfamiliar to His Majesty the Emperor. In the Song Dynasty, he would sometimes hold Xie Daoqing behind the curtain and listen to the discussions of the ministers.  The queen reacted slower and was more assertive, and would not be as worried and panicked as Concubine Rong.  The same curtain, different countries, and people with different reactions in their arms gave His Majesty the Emperor a novel feeling. He helped the Empress Dowager of Jin State back to the harem.  As the days passed, the war finally broke out.  Wokuotai marched from Liaodong with 150,000 Mongolian troops and fought all the way to Hebei. They encountered fierce resistance in Hebei. King Rong Wanyan Hongxi transferred part of the army originally deployed along the Yangtze River to the north. This made the Mongols  The Great Khan encountered some setbacks. On the contrary, the Song army was progressing smoothly. The army led by Meng Zongzheng set off from Xiangyang and the army led by Jia She marched from Lianghuai. Although the war was equally brutal, the march was extremely fast.  His Majesty the Emperor needs the Song army to arrive at Kaifeng City a few days earlier than the Mongolian army, so that the Song army can have time to rest and prepare its layout. When the Mongolian army comes in a hurry, it can give a fatal blow. Although Song and Mongolia  It is an alliance, but whoever breaks through Kaifeng City first can enjoy the right to plunder the Jin Kingdom's imperial city and treasury, and none of those generals want to monopolize the credit for destroying a country.  One has been planning for a long time, and the other is exhausted Yang Kang used an imperial city of the Jin Kingdom as bait to keep the Mongolian army under the city of Kaifeng. He originally wanted to wait for the thunder-traveling army to come, but King Rong did not want to use the entire Jin Kingdom.  As a bet, even if Kaifeng Imperial City is destroyed, the Jin Kingdom still has Chang'an City to hold on to. If Chang'an City is abandoned, the Jin Kingdom will have no foothold.  What¡¯s more, ifThe rendezvous of the two armies of Lei and Wokuotai is not only extremely difficult in terms of army operations, but also it may not be able to completely eliminate the Mongolian army. It may also be overturned by the Mongolian army. It is better to gather the power of the two countries to eliminate one of the Mongolian armies.  A large army has a greater chance of winning, and it can also ensure the balance of power between Song and Jin.  Under the advice of King Rong, His Majesty the Emperor had to restrain his ambition to wipe out the Mongolian army in one fell swoop. Anyway, as long as half of the Mongolian army was wiped out, he would be able to buy at least a few years, and then he could slowly pursue his plans.  One month after the outbreak of the Three Kingdoms War, Yang Kang used the Queen Mother to issue an order for the Jin army to withdraw completely and concentrate its forces to defend the Kaifeng Imperial City. This was to preserve strength. A month of fierce fighting was enough to convince the Mongols that the Song and Jin  The country is really fighting, not pretending, and there is no point in continuing to fight.  However, this order was opposed by the Jin court officials. They collapsed without a fight and led the enemy troops to the imperial city. This was an extremely conservative and dangerous approach. Once the Mongol and Song armies approached the city, it would be too late to escape. In order to  For their own safety and the sake of the Kingdom of Jin, the courtiers believed that they should fight for every inch of territory and fight to the end.  Facing the accusations from the ministers, the Empress Dowager was slightly worried, but His Majesty the Emperor insisted on sticking to the end. He would never allow anyone to ruin his plan, but he did not intend to kill the courtiers again. Mass killing at this time would cause  The situation in the imperial city of Kaifeng was turbulent. He asked the palace officials to announce his resignation and announced that the Prime Minister would come to the study to discuss matters.  Xu Ding, the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Jin, followed the palace servants to the study room in the palace. He was very surprised why the empress dowager summoned him in the study room. This was a rule only for the emperor. The empress dowager usually summoned ministers in the side hall. He came to the study room.  , the palace man left, he heard someone announcing his entry, and opened the door.  On the second day, at the court meeting, the Prime Minister fully agreed with the Empress Dowager¡¯s proposal and vigorously refuted the remarks of other courtiers. This made those courtiers look at each other. Is the Prime Minister sick?  Xu Ding looked at the courtiers with cold eyes and felt calm in his heart. When he opened the door and saw the man in the study, he knew that the Kingdom of Jin was saved this time. If you are not afraid of death, just continue to make trouble.  (To be continued.)
