"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..."
On the 16th day of the first lunar month of the second year of Shaoxing, heart-breaking wailing came from the Chongzheng Hall of the Lin'an (Pizhou) Palace!
On the throne, Zhao Gou, who was dressed in mourning clothes, was already crying so hard that it made people feel sad for him! But the reason why he cried like this was not because he knew that a good brother was going to kill him as a big capon, but because his father died again, oh, it should be another father who died!
On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month of the second year of Shaoxing, bad news came from Liaodong. Wanyan Wu Qimai, the second emperor of the Jin Dynasty, died of illness in Liaoyang.
This Wanyan Wu Qimai was Zhao Gou's closest wild father. To Zhao Gou, he was a closer father than Song Zhuangzong Zhao Ji. Because Zhao Gou can now become the emperor of the "Pseudo Song Dynasty" because of the wild father Wu Qibi.
Now that the wild father is dead, and the newly elected Wanyan Liang and Wanyan Zongqianye are now focused on attacking Goryeo and have no intention of supporting the pseudo-Song Dynasty, Zhao Gou suddenly became a child that no one loved and no one loved... ... Not only was he unloved, but there were also two brothers with ulterior motives who wanted to kill him and take away his "little and pitiful inheritance."
What's even worse is that there is a tigress-like woman in his family who bullies him so much that he dares not kill her!
Well, he had a dagger hidden in his boots. He was thinking about stabbing Wanyanyan every day, and he also had the ability. He had fought real tigers in Korea for several years, and their strength was much higher than that of Wan Yanyan, a female tiger.
Moreover, Wanyan Yan was not on guard against Zhao Gou. She didn't even wear chainmail when sleeping with Zhao Gou, and she didn't let anyone search Zhao Gou's body. Once, he found a dagger hidden in Zhao Gou's boot. He took it out and played with it for a while before stuffing it back.
It can be said that killing Wanyan Yan is as easy as killing a chicken for Zhao Gou!
But...he doesn't dare!
Because the current Lin'an (Pizhou) court implements the system of two saints coming to the court, and there is a clear division of labor between the two saints, the official Zhao Gou is responsible for writing, and the queen Wanyan Yan is responsible for military affairs.
In other words, all the military power of the Puppet Song Dynasty was in the hands of Queen Wanyan Yan! The three military leaders, Li Cheng, the commander of the palace, Liu Lin, the commander of the guards' horse army, and Kong Yanzhou, the commander of the infantry of the guards, were all Wanyan Yan's men. Among them, Li Cheng and Kong Yanzhou only listened to Yan Yan. Liu Lin gave Zhao Gou a little face, but mainly listened to Yan Yan.
The twenty squads of forbidden troops (each squad has about a hundred people) guarding the Lin'an Palace are all Jurchens and Bohai people brought by Wanyan Yan from Liaodong.
In addition, Liu Yi, the commander of the naval force stationed in Chenjia Island, Mizhou, was also promoted by Queen Wanyanyan.
It is no exaggeration to say that without Zhao Gou, the Pseudo-Song Dynasty could still use Zhao Shanzhen as the emperor and Wanyan Yanlin to continue to support it for a period of time.
Without Wanyan Yan, the Puppet Song Dynasty would have disbanded immediately. And there was no need for Yue Fei to lead troops to kill him. Zhao Gou had Wu Huada, a general under him who wanted to abandon the dark side and turn to the bright side, tied up and sent to Shuntian Mansion...
Since Zhao Gou couldn't live without Wanyanyan, he could only watch with anger as Wanyanyan became pregnant again, while hoping that his wild father Wanyanwu would get better soon.
In this way... maybe, maybe, maybe someone will take some care of this Queen Wanyan who bullies the emperor too much.
However, Zhao Gou's expectations were completely disappointed, and Wanyan Wu Qingmai died.
How could Zhao Gou not be heartbroken after such an encounter?
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu, Daddy, your great cause has not been accomplished, and the thieves (referring to Zhao Kai) are still entrenched in Yanyun. How can you control Bintian? What will happen to Daijin when you leave? What will happen to the Song Dynasty?" What should I do?"
"Guan family, please stop crying...Guan family, please forgive me and accept the change!"
Zhao Gou was sitting on the dragon chair, crying all over the place, when he heard a female voice suddenly, and then Zhao Gou's crying suddenly stopped.
After he quickly stopped crying, Zhao Gou didn't dare to continue sitting. He stood up immediately, then turned towards a huge screen - the voice telling him not to cry came from behind this screen. of.
After a while, Wanyan Yan, dressed in plain clothes, came out from behind the screen.
The ministers in the palace quickly knelt down and kowtowed to Wanyan Yan, shouting long live the mountain - the Lin'an court was the second sage coming to the court, so long live was certainly more than the courts of Shuntian Prefecture and Yingtian Prefecture.
"Pingsheng!" Wanyan Yan, whose biological father died, had a look of disapproval, her face full of anger, and she ignored Zhao Gou and sat down on the spacious throne.
This frightened Zhao Gou next to him - did he know that I wanted to kill her? I just thought about it...but I didn't dare to actually kill him! Thinking about it is breaking the law? And how did you know what I was thinking? Are you talking in your sleep?
Zhao Gou, who was so guilty, didn't dare to sit down, so he had to stand next to Wanyan Yan... It didn't look like the Second Saint was coming to court, but more like the Queen Mother was giving instructions.
Wanyan Yan glanced at her useless man and asked coldly: "Guan family, my father passed away, why are you crying so sadly?"
The father-in-law is gone, and the son-in-law cries harder than the daughter. It is indeed a bit wrong!
Zhao Gou replied with a trembling voice: "Queen, that is also my father, the emperor... I miss him so much that I feel so sad that I can't stop crying."
Wanyan Yan glanced at Zhao Gou: "Do you really miss him?"
"I want it! I want it so much..."
Wanyan Yan said: "Then you don't have to cry bitterly, because you may be able to meet his old man soon."
"See?" When Zhao Gou heard this, he suddenly panicked.
Wanyan Wu beggars to death!
How can I see you after you die? Isn't it to go down to the underworld to see you?
"Emperor, Empress, what you said..." Zhao Gou stuttered, "There is no resurrection after death!"
Wanyan Yan said calmly: "I have just received a report from Hebei Xuanfu envoy Wang Bolong. Your third brother Zhao Kai has issued a major edict to attack you. He ordered Yue Fei to be the commander-in-chief, with Miao Fu, Liu Zhengyan, and Qu Duan, Li Qiong, and Niu Gao are in charge and have sent hundreds of thousands of troops... to kill you!"
"Crunt against me? Yue Fei, Miao Fu, Liu Zhengyan..." Zhao Gou was not very scared when he heard the name Yue Fei, but when he heard the names Liu Zhengyan and Miao Fu, his whole person was surrounded by fear. .
"Queen, let's hurry up..." Of course Zhao Gou wanted to escape. One Yue Fei was already terrifying, and now there were Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan. How long would it be before he ran away?
But when he saw a face full of murderous intent, he immediately took back the word "escape" and gritted his teeth and said: "Queen, tell me...how should we fight!"
Wanyan Yan snorted: "The official family should sit down first!"
After his wife gave up her seat, Zhao Gou dared to sit on the dragon chair, and then looked at Wan Yanyan with a well-behaved and obedient look.
Wanyan Yan said: "Guan family, how is the preparation for the imperial examination competition going?"
It was Zhao Gou's "national policy" to open a subject to obtain scholars. Huang Paojia announced it immediately after his death, and also told the subordinate state governments to hurry up and get to Luo... There is no need to take any examinations. All scholars who are willing to come to An'an to take the examination , all issued them with travel vouchers and asked them to go to Beijing to take the exam.
Only with more people can we make the imperial examinations lively and prosperous!
But now that Yue Fei is coming, can he still pass the exam?
"Queen, now that we are facing a formidable enemy, why should we take the imperial examination?" Zhao Gou didn't even bother to take the imperial examination - Yue Fei, Liu Zhengyan, and Miao Fu came together to kill him, so why should he take the imperial examination?
"What are you talking about?" Wanyan Yan looked at Zhao Gou with contempt, "Yue Fei's troops haven't gathered yet. It takes two months to send out troops. Even if they can reach Lin'an City, it will be April or May. By then The imperial examination has been completed long ago."
By then the country will be gone... Zhao Gou thought to himself: Co-authoring my imperial examination can only be done once! But there is only one time and it really needs to be done properly. If it is done well, it will leave a mark in history!
Wanyan Yan was calm and composed, "Guan family, this time the imperial examination must be handled well! We must let the scholars here in Shandong know that this dynasty values scholars the most... and we must also let them know that Zhao Kai has not It’s so easy to defeat us! Our Lin’an Mansion is impregnable!”
Did Wanyan Yan want to use the imperial examination to calm people's hearts? Zhao Gou guessed at his wife's thoughts, but he still knew the military strength of his Caotai court, and the possibility of defeating Yue Fei was almost zero.
If you can't defeat Yue Fei and can't protect Lin'an, what's the use of doing well in the imperial examination? Take a group of Jinshi who were taken out to surrender to Zhao Kai?
"The official family," Wanyan Yan spoke again, "I will handle the affairs of the military and state on my own... The imperial examination is to collect materials for the country, which is the foundation of a hundred generations. We must not be careless. The official family should be personally responsible. "
"Okay, okay, listen to my wife." Zhao Gou reluctantly nodded.
Wanyan Yan said again: "I will leave Chenqiao Hall from today... From now on, I, Li Cheng, Liu Lin, and Kong Yanzhou will be responsible for resisting the enemy and defending the country, and the officials will concentrate on doing it well." That’s the imperial examination.”
Lin'an Fucheng, also known as Pizhou City, is located on a delta surrounded by water on three sides. There is only one floating bridge connected to the outside world, and Chenqiao Pavilion guards the exit of this floating bridge.
In other words, as long as you control Chenqiao Pavilion, you can control the communication between Lin'an Fucheng and the outside world.
"Everything is according to the Queen." How dare Zhao Gou disobey Queen Wanyan Yan, so of course he had to say yes.
Wanyan Yan added: "Although Lin'an City is solidly built, its reserves are limited after all. If there are too many people in the city, it will be difficult to hold on for a long time. Therefore, all the weapons supervisors, military horse supervisors, money supervisors and all military family members in the city will be moved there. Take shelter in Donghai County temporarily to avoid wasting military supplies."
Donghai County is located in Haizhou, not on the mainland, but on a large island called Yuzhou Island in Haizhou Bay.
"Everything is according to the queen." Zhao Gou naturally supported Wanyan Yan unconditionally.
Wanyan Yan nodded and said to Zhao Gou: "I, Li Cheng, Liu Lin, and Kong Yanzhou will handle everything. The officials only need to take care of Da Bi, and there is no need to worry about the rest."
No need to ask...this thing sounds unreliable!
Although Zhao Gou knew it was unreliable, he didn't dare to ask, so he had to grit his teeth and continue to listen to his wife, and work hard to recruit soldiers for the country in the dangerous city of Lin'an.
