While Zhao Kai was making arrangements to build dams, build pastures and build castles across the river in Kaifeng Mansion, Wanyan Zonghan, Wanyan Zongbi, Wanyan Xiebao, Wanyan Qi, Xiao Zhonggong and others were already rushing to Huining City.
This journey was really far, and they encountered rain and snow in late autumn and early winter. The roads were muddy and difficult to travel. Therefore, in October of the fifth year of Tianhui, they had just arrived outside Duning City, the capital of the northern country, which was already covered in ice and snow.
The capital of the Great Jin Empire was still the same as before, large and desolate. There was nothing different inside and outside the city walls. The outside of the city wall is desolate, and the inside of the city wall is deserted. Only within the south gate, facing the palace, is a small square called Nanshi Square.
In fact, there is not much excitement in Nanshifang. There are just a lot of restaurants and restaurants selling good wine and meat. If in the summer when the south wind blows, the aroma of wine and meat will float out of the doors and windows of these restaurants and restaurants every time it’s mealtime, and drift into the Grand Palace with the wind. This is a tempting crime!
When Wu Qimai first became the Emperor of the Jin Dynasty, he was seduced by this fragrant smell. Because he was unwilling to use the private money that he had finally robbed to eat and drink, he embezzled the money from the treasury and took it with him. My own soldiers went to eat and drink together, and they were happy for a long time... but they were discovered by Wanyan Zonghan, a villain who deceived the emperor, and took several other Bo Jilie with him. Beat up the corrupt official Wu Qimai!
Of course, the beating wasn't very hard. People like Wanyan Zonghan did not want to kill Wu Qimai, they just wanted to take the opportunity to establish their authority and let everyone in the Kingdom of Jin know that the emperor was not the greatest, but the Bojilie Conference was the greatest.
Moreover, Wu Qimai was thick-skinned and could withstand beatings, so this beating did not cause any physical harm to him...but his spirit was greatly traumatized!
Especially after Wu Qi bought Wanyan Gou, his adopted son, and learned from him the truth that "officials cannot be spanked", he was really shocked... Officials! Isn’t it the king’s land in the whole world? All the good things in the world belong to him, and the money in the treasury is used as long as it is used. How can he be spanked?
Wan Yangou also told Wu Qimai... In fact, official families can eat the King's meal!
You are an official! If you have an army in hand, are you afraid of being beaten by the restaurant manager when you eat a king's meal? What do you do with so many golden heavenly soldiers?
Wu Qimai used the money from the treasury to buy delicious food, and Wanyan Zonghan could use Aguda's last words to beat him up. But Wu Qimai wants to eat a King's meal...Zong Han can't beat him. Aguda never said he can't eat a King's meal!
Wu Qimai was really dumbfounded now. He didn't know that officials could eat without paying!
Later, Wanyan Gou felt that his wild father was pitiful. He was from such a high-ranking official family and was in such a difficult position just to have a good meal. So he taught him another trick - you can ask the restaurant owner to treat you!
As long as Wu Qimai can give the restaurant owner some good business and let him make up for it elsewhere, let alone a little food and drink, even if he comes to eat, drink, whore and gamble, he can give Wu Qimai a free meal at a high-ranking official's house!
How many good deals do you, Wu Qibuy, have in such a big official family? If you just put one out, people will have enough to eat in their lifetime!
Wan Yangou also told Wu Qimai that his biological father, Song Zhuangzong, had been having sex with Master Li for free!
Zhao Guan's family even ate, played and held hands with Master Li, and then left as soon as they were done without giving a penny. Even if you give Master Li some calligraphy and paintings written by him, Master Li can't sell them! But Master Li will not have no money to spend, because someone will bring gold and silver treasures to her... and ask her to give her a kind word! Even one sentence is good!
A kind word from an official's "**" can be worth thousands of gold, not to mention that you, Wu Qimai, are an official!
Although Bo Jilie and several Jurchen ministers and generals with heavy troops could not flatter Wu Qimai, with the continuous expansion of the territory of the Jin Kingdom, there were too many officials who wanted to curry favor with Wu Qimai. ...
After being taught by his godson, Wu Qimai realized that he was really stupid in the past and could not even become an official!
But Wu Qimai was too thin-skinned to do things like taking bribes and asking for bribes... So the filial son Wanyan Gou won Wu Qimai's favor overnight!
When Wanyan Zonghan and others entered the city, Wanyan Gou, who had regained his father's love, was entering the palace with several large boxes of gold and silver treasures to honor his new father... He was now a Jurchen nobleman He was dressed up in a white leather robe, and his head was shaved, but there was still hair on the back of his head, braided into two small braids, which dangled when he walked, which was quite fun.
Wanyan Wu Qimai looked at this "filial son" who was tall and tall but had delicate features like a big girl. The more he looked at it, the more he liked him!
Although he already had fourteen sons, none of them thought of giving gold and silver to his father, who was the emperor... Only this cheap son who was "picked up" had such filial piety. It seems that the Song Dynasty in the Central Plains ruled the world with filial piety. It is true!
When Wanyan Gou spoke, he spoke in standard Jurchen dialect, with a proper Heilongjiang accent, "Dad, these are the children sent to the palace by Guo Dalang to honor your old man... There is no other meaning, just for peace of mind, You must accept it, just take pity on the Guo family!"
When Wanyan Wu Qingmai saw those boxes of golden treasures, she really smiled from ear to ear, and of course her heart... softened.
"Okay, okay, then we'll accept it..." Wu Qimai smiled and waved his hand, "What a shame, the Guo family have done so many bad things! They have to take so many treasures. Buy peace of mind?”
Wan Yangou said with a smile: "How many bad things can be done in his line of work? But now that they have no soldiers and horses, they have become toothless tigers, and they can no longer do evil."
Wu Qimai smiled and said: "In that case, let them both go... Go back and tell Guo Dalang that they and his son can live in peace!"
"Then my son will thank you for your father!" Wan Yangou said, "Daddy," and it was so affectionate!
Wu Qimai also liked this precious son very much. He was a kind father and a filial son. Suddenly, a chamberlain ran in outside the palace. He was caught from the original palace of Liao Kingdom. He didn't know what he saw, and he was panicking. of.
"What's going on?" Wan Yangou looked at the servant and asked, "Did you see a ghost? You're so panicked!"
The chamberlain's surname was Gao, a Bohai native, and he was considered a national in Daikin. He was not supposed to be in this business, but he was cut off...so he could only continue to work in his old profession. But because he is from Bohai, he has won the trust of Wanyan Wu. Now being scolded by Wanyan Gou, the wild son, he is naturally not happy and replied angrily: "His Royal Highness King Kang, Yilaibo Jilie is here. Huining, we have arrived outside the palace now!"
"Yilai Bojilie?" Wanyanju couldn't remember who this "Bojilie" was?
Wanyan Wu Qimai's face changed drastically, "He, why did he come so fast... Didn't he just arrive at Xianping Mansion the day before yesterday? Why did he arrive at Huining today?"
Not only did it come quickly, it came at the right time!
Just when Wanyan Wu was begging for money and accepting bribes from Guo Yaoshi and his son, he came!
Wan Yangou was still very calm - the civil servants of the Song Dynasty were not afraid of being caught taking bribes. His new father was an official of the Kingdom of Jin, so wouldn't he accept some bribes?
So he quickly said to the chamberlain surnamed Gao: "Official Gao, hurry up and call a few people to carry all these boxes of treasures to the warehouse!"
"Yes, yes," Wanyan Wu Qimai also realized, "Hurry and take it away!"
We can't let the evil man Nianhan see it!
As soon as the "criminal evidence" was carried away, Wanyan Zonghan, Wanyan Zongbi, Wanyan Xiebao, Wanyan Qi, Xiao Zhonggong and others were announced to the main hall.
Wanyan Wu Qimai sat upright on the throne, while Wanyan Gou huddled next to Wu Qimai, as if he was Wu Qimai's biological son.
The reason why Wanyan Zonghan and others came in such a hurry was not because they learned about Wanyan Wu's begging and taking bribes... but when they were in Xianping Mansion, they heard that the Mongol Hebule Khan had died in August. At that time, he finally agreed to come to the court to see Wu Qi and buy something. Moreover, he had crossed the Duck River a few days ago and might reach Huining at any time.
This was a big deal, so they had to return to Huining quickly to discuss a solution with Wu Qimai so that the Mongols could join the gang and fight Zhao Kai together!
Wanyan Wu Qimai politely ordered these dusty visitors to sit down, without introducing Wanyan Gou to them. But Wanyan Zonghan and the others didn't care... Everyone knew that Wu Qimai had many sons, fourteen of whom were upright, and they were all raised!
Who knows how many of those wild children and those who have lost their care are still there?
However, since this child appeared in the hall at this time, it means that he is quite favored, so Wanyan Zonghan nodded towards Wanyan Gou and said with a smile: "This child grows up really fast... This I haven’t seen him for a few years, but he’s already so big. This time I can take him with me to the southern expedition to the Song Dynasty, and let him go into battle to kill a few Song soldiers!”
"Southern Expedition?" Wanyan Wu Qimai didn't want Zong Han to know who Wanyan Gou was? So he quickly changed the topic and asked a few people, "Why are you marching south again?"
Wanyan Zongbi took up the topic and said: "The Jinling official family of the Song Dynasty is going to die, and they are preparing to pass the throne to the Luoyang official family!"
"What?" Wan Yangou, who was cowering next to him, was stunned again and again. "One official family passed the throne to another official family? Is there such a thing in the world?"
Wanyan Zonghan scratched his head, "It's a bit strange...but the news is very accurate and cannot be wrong!"
Wanyan Xianbao said: "The Jinling officials have already issued a big edict. Now, if he dies, the two Song Dynasties will be united! In addition, the Jinling officials also executed Qin Hui and cut off the annual coins that they gave us. , and began to deploy defenses in the southern part of the Huaiyang Army, Haizhou and Lianshui Army..."
When Wanyan Wu Qimai heard these words, his face turned green, "This Zhao Huan is too bold. Isn't he afraid of my Dajin Heavenly Soldiers' attack?"
Wanyan Gou next to him sighed softly: "He is going to die, why should he be afraid of a crusade... The reason why he is passing the throne to Zhao Kai now is probably to save his face, so that he can survive his death." Let’s go see our ancestors later!”
