Yanshanfu Road, Yanshanfu City.
The gold thief who had plagued the city for eight years finally left, leaving behind a dead city with only a few old men and women left, guarded by two big traitors, Guo Yaoshi and Cai Jing, and hundreds of old, weak and remnant soldiers. And they were asked to "hold on" for two to three days, otherwise, hehehe...
Don't think that all the old, weak, sick and disabled people left behind by Wanyan Zongqian are good people. Where is Yanshanfu Road? That was a place that the three forces of Liao, Song, and Jin fought over again and again! Moreover, the two waves of villains, the Chang Victory Army and the Nanjing Road Haner Army, are fighting dog-eat-dog. How many good people can grow up to be old, weak, sick and disabled in such an environment?
Besides, the gold thief is looking for stretchers to work as coolies, and he will do it to death, and they don't care if they are old or not! If they were really old people living in ordinary people's homes, as long as they could still move, they would still be arrested. Most of those who can really stay in Yanshan City to welcome the new master are those who can establish relationships with traitor families such as the Han family in Yutian, the Liu family in Yanjing, and the Zhao family in Zhenzhou, or have connections with the two new traitors, Guo Yaoshi and Cai Jing. relationship figures.
With their protection, those ferocious Jurchen heavenly soldiers knew how to respect the old and love the young, and spared these old immortals.
The reason why these old people stay here instead of following their children to other places is to guard their share of real estate!
The gold thieves could only take away some frivolous wealth, but they could not take away the land on Yanshanfu Road...these lands were the roots of the various families in Yandi.
In addition, not all the young people from the Yandi clan behind these old people were snatched away by the Jin people. They were so well-informed, so of course they would know in advance that the Jin people were going to plunder people and go beyond the Great Wall.
Therefore, under the arrangements of their elders, many people sneaked out of Yanjing City before the Jin Man took action and hid in Zhuangzi outside the city to watch the wind direction.
In short, no big family can survive in a harsh environment like Yanjing, and no one can save money.
However, these inefficient lamps are all a little uneasy now, because the Master Wang who is coming this time will be "entering Yanjing for the second time". The last time they came back, they caused great harm to the Yan people! And these aristocratic families in Yandi colluded with Yaoshi Guo to sell Yanjing to the Jurchens.
And later, when the Jurchens went south to conquer the Song Dynasty, these Yanjing aristocrats organized the Nanjing Road Han'er and Liaodong Han'er armies to lead the way for the Jurchens.
They were all to blame for the death of Song Zhuangzong!
Now that Song Zhuangzong's son has led troops to fight, can we let these poor old people go?
Will there be a massacre of the city?
Everyone was unsure, so they all ran to Cai Jing, the pacifying envoy on Yanshan Mansion Road... In their opinion, Cai Jing was a senior official of the Song Dynasty after all, and the fall of Yanshan Mansion had nothing to do with it. It doesn't matter. Although he is the commander-in-chief, the troops in Yanshan Prefecture are Guo Yaoshi's victorious army, and no one listens to Cai Jing.
In addition, Lu Yihao, who was arrested together with Cai Jing, has been the prime minister under Zhao Kai for more than eight years!
Is Cai Jing considered someone in the court?
Therefore, after the gold thief left, the elderly people in Yanshan Prefecture all moved closer to Cai Jing, and at the same time regarded Yaoshi Guo as the god of plague.
And Yaoshi Guo doesn’t know where he got his confidence? Not knowing at all that he was about to die, he started to organize a group of old brothers from the victorious army under him to meet the king's division.
That Zhao Heshou was responsible for cleaning and decorating the imperial city, while Zhen Wuchen took a group of veterans out of the city to find beauties in Tongzhou, Xianghe, and Wuqing... He said that he wanted to adopt her as his goddaughter and offer it to the official family of the Song Dynasty as a female banquet.
Isn't this a dream?
No matter how lustful Zhao Kai is, there is no way he can have Yaoshi Guo's daughter, not even dry or fresh!
And this morning, something even stranger happened. This Pharmacist Guo actually left Yanshan Fucheng with his soldier leader Dong Luohan and an old monk whom he raised to negotiate with Yue Fei, the commander-in-chief of the Song Dynasty who was stationed beside the Sanggan River!
According to what he said, he went to talk to Yue Fei and told him not to rush to take Yanshan Fucheng... Such credit should be left to the officials of the Song Dynasty!
It’s not good to shock the master with great power!
In addition, if Yue Fei waits for two days, the city of Yanshan Prefecture can also be prepared, so that the officials can enter the city in glory!
Also, the population in Yanshan City is too small now, and they are all old guys. They will not look good when welcoming the King's Master! Therefore, it is best for him to send people out of the city to recruit some young people (the Jin people also arrest people in the city, and there are still many young people in the countryside outside the city) to show off.
These words sounded like a dream... It's not that what Guo Yaoshi said was wrong, but that Guo Yaoshi was not qualified to say this at all.
He didn't even think about how much he had sinned? You can save yourself the trouble of asking for sin and just eat and drink well at home while you wait for your death by a thousand cuts. If you are afraid of pain, just take some poison and kill it yourself.
Why are you still jumping up and down like this?
He also went to negotiate with Yue Fei... Wasn't he afraid of being detained by Yue Fei on the spot, put into a prison car and sent to Zhao Kai?
And just when people in Yanshan Prefecture thought that Medicine Master Guo would never return, an old man from the Liu family of Yanjing who was responsible for guarding the west gate of Yanshan Prefecture Road came to Cai Jing's Fusi to report the news.
"Pharmacist Guo is back! He's back alive... Yue Xuanshuai has agreed to his terms."
His news immediately caused a stir in the Fusi lobby.
"If we don't even kill Pharmacist Guo, it seems we have nothing to worry about!"
"How could you not kill him? I'm just immobilizing him for the time being...when the officials come, they will still kill him."
"This may not necessarily be... Do you know? What Guo sent Zhen Wuchen out of the city to find was not an ordinary beauty, but Wanyan Zongwang's wife, named Yelu Yuliyan. This is a big deal. What a generous gift!”
"Yu Liyan? Ah, Princess of Shu! This... can save Medicine Master Guo's life?"
"It's hard to say, it's hard to say..."
A group of old guys were talking a lot, but after hearing this, Cai Jing felt confident.
Pharmacist Guo can be forgiven for such a serious crime, so Cai Jing should be fine too...and Cai Jing can also perform meritorious deeds!
For example, kill Pharmacist Guo!
Yaoshi Guo's crime was so serious, Zhao Kai would not really spare him, he would just refrain from killing him for the time being.
If someone could take care of Pharmacist Guo for him, it would be a great achievement!
In addition, Cai Jing can also present Princess Yu Liyan of Liao Shu Kingdom!
With the two powers combined into one, what else does Cai Jing have to worry about?
Thinking of this, Cai Jing smiled and said to everyone: "This is great... Let's go and invite Deputy Ambassador Guo to come to Fusi for a drink. He has done us a big favor this time. !”
...
"Come on, come on, let me fill it up for you... This is really good wine! Look at the color, it's slightly red. It's made from the fruit from Yanshan Mountain, and it's called Yanshan Red!"
In the lobby of the Soothing Envoy Office on Yanshanfu Road, there were already more than a dozen seats set up, all with square tables. Round table tops had not yet been invented. There are no good dishes, the main thing is buckets of mutton, cut into slices, scalded with boiling water and eaten - just brush the mutton!
Pharmacist Guo is in a good mood today because Yue Fei is very considerate to him!
Yue Fei may look down on him, but he still has to give Guo Tiannu face. That person was not only Zhao Kai's beloved concubine, but she also had a fatal love affair with Zhao Kai. She also brought hundreds of cavalry to Zhao Kai's side - those were shares!
So Guo Tiannu can really save the scourge of Yaoshi Guo... This is how the power game is played!
Of course, the premise is that Pharmacist Guo drinks less "red wine" with a little Heding red added, which is the "Yanshan red" that Cai Jing is pouring into his wine glass.
However, Pharmacist Guo was in a good mood today, and he did not expect that his old friend Cai Jing, who he had been dating for nine years, would poison him, so he came to have a drink.
I poured "Heding Red Wine" into my stomach one glass at a time...but I haven't been poisoned yet!
I don’t know if Pharmacist Guo is more resistant to poison, or if Cai Jing’s Hedinghong has expired? This bottle of Hedinghong was bought in Kaifeng Mansion before he came to Yanshan Mansion to take office. A big bottle, half a catty in total! He originally planned to eat those Hedinghong just in case (at that time he already knew that the situation in Yanshan Mansion was not good, either the gold thieves were coming, or Guo Yaoshi wanted to transform into Guo Lushan), and his name would go down in history.
But death is the only option in the eternal hardship!
When Guo Yaoshi rebelled, his daughter Guo Tiannv led the troops and waited outside the house where Cai Jing lived for a whole hour, waiting for him to sacrifice his life for righteousness and become a benevolent man. And they thoughtfully prepared a coffin for him... Unfortunately, Cai Jing thought that Hedinghong must be bitter, so he didn't eat it.
However, he was not willing to throw away the half kilogram of Hedinghong, but poured it back into the bottle and continued to store it - after all, he spent a lot of money to buy it, and it was produced in Kaifeng, and it is gone now. ...I didn’t expect to use it today.
But how come this Pharmacist Guo can't be poisoned to death?
Did you buy a fake Hedinghong? Met a profiteer?
While Cai Jing was cursing the shameless profiteers in his mind, Pharmacist Guo suddenly felt dizzy, his lips were numb, all the muscles in his body were sore, and it was a little difficult to breathe... Was he about to have a stroke?
Pharmacist Guo has never studied the symptoms of Hedinghong poisoning. He has never poisoned anyone in his life... He always chops people with a knife. What kind of poison is he giving!
So he thought he was suffering from a stroke because he was old and drank too much.
When Medicine Master Guo thought of this, he felt scared. With a flick of his wrist, the wine glass fell to the ground.
It didn't matter as soon as the wine glass fell to the ground, the old swordsmen and axemen arranged by Cai Jing rushed out in a huffing voice - they were all elderly men. The young ones were all captured by the Jin people, leaving only the old ones like them.
However, they were not unambiguous when they were killing people. They rushed towards him with a cry, holding knives and the father and son struck at the poisoned Yao Shi Guo, whose hands and feet were paralyzed.
In the blink of an eye, Guo Yaoshi was stabbed into a gourd of blood. When he was about to die, he heard Cai Jing shouting: "The treasonous traitor Guo Yaoshi has been executed, and the rest of his followers will not be held accountable... Everyone will follow." Cai, go and greet Master Wang Shi of the Song Dynasty!"
