Chapter 412 Princess Jieyou
My family married me to the far side of the sky, and I was entrusted to a foreign country far away by the king of Wu. The dome is the room, the walls are the walls, the meat is the food, and the cheese is the pulp. Living in this land, I miss you and my heart hurts. I wish you could return to your hometown as a yellow swan. -------"Sad Autumn Song" by Liu Xijun of the Han Dynasty
It is said that Wen Shu, the second swordsman of the Nanlin Sword Sect, had a quick meeting with the sword master Wang Yi on a cliff stone platform. Relying on the background of the Wang family, Wen Shu wanted to ask Wang Yi why he indulged Chen Long, but Wang Yi announced even more shocking news. From now on, Wang Yi will resign as the sword master and start the latest round of sword master. Auditions. After the birth of the new sword master, Wang Yi sealed the sword and retired from the world.
According to the rules of the Nanlin Sword Sect, only female disciples of the sect can inherit the position of sword master. And those who are young, beautiful, and highly skilled in martial arts are the first choice. There will naturally be a selection method for this audition, but each sword side will nominate its own candidates.
Sword Master Wen Shu returned to Er Jianfang's own teahouse and thought over and over again that the matter must be reported to his clan uncle immediately for intervention. If Wang Yi retires, he may lose control of the Nanlin Sword Sect, but if one of his own comes to power, he will have full control of the Nanlin Sword Sect. Thinking of this, Wen Shu put the tea cup on the table and shouted: "Ask Qiu Jian and his disciple to come see me."
Qiu Jian, the first Ququ teacher, left the capital that day. Qiu Jian had a premonition that something was going to happen, so he hurriedly escaped with Liu Jiannan. Qiu Jian immediately came to Wen Shu to report everything, and then Wen Shu went to the first sword square to try the sword with Chen Long.
Qiu Jian and Liu Jiannan arrived, and Wen Shu ordered: "Take my jade pendant and go to Chang'an to find my uncle Wang Yue." After saying that, Wang Yi resigned and retired, and was about to tell the story about the audition for the sword master. He was shocked. Qiu Jian broke into a cold sweat. Wen Shu finally said: "Your mission is to ask your clan uncle for instructions on how to win the position of sword master without fail." Qiu Jian immediately stood up and said: "This matter is important, I will pack my bags and leave immediately."
After Qiu Jian left, Wen Shu stared at Liu Jiannan. Liu Jiannan couldn't help but become nervous for some reason. After a while, Wen Shu asked: "Jian Nan, you have been in First Jianqu for many years, how come you don't even have a younger brother?"
Liu Jiannan's face was full of embarrassment. He was usually a snobbish person and only wanted to flatter Qiu Jian and Zijing. His popularity was indeed not that good. Seeing Wen Shu staring at her, he hurriedly said: "I also have a few junior brothers who practice swordsmanship with me, and they usually listen to me the most."
Wen Shu snorted and said: "In that case, you listen to me and go back to your Jianqu immediately and ask me for all the news about Zhen Dong." Liu Jiannan was shocked. If he went back, he would become a piece of fish on the chopping board. ?But he didn't dare to go against Wen Shu's wishes and murmured: "It's not that I can't go back, I'm afraid." Before he finished speaking, Wen Shu waved his hand and shouted: "Go down! Someone, go and invite the Four Swordsman Lin." Uncle, discuss matters!"
Not mentioning Liu Jiannan's desperate return to the Sword Sect, Qiu Jian hurriedly packed his bags and rushed to Chang'an City overnight. Qiu Jian was riding alone, but he didn't notice that there were several figures behind him. The leader was Lu Chang, the captain of the Qinglong Army's special forces.
A few days later, at the General's Mansion in Chang'an City, Qiu Jian met the Sword God Wang Yue in the Xuan Hall. After listening to Qiu Jian's report, Wang Yue's face was as dark as water, and without saying a word, he asked someone to take Qiu Jian to rest. But he asked people to prepare horses and rushed to Da Situ's mansion overnight.
Wang Yun went through many hardships, and finally became the Great Situ during the reign of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, but his hair was white and he looked quite old, not as high-spirited as before. At this moment, Wang Yun, who was sitting in the main seat, was lowering his head and thinking deeply after listening to Wang Yue's report.
After a while, Wang Yun stood up and said: "The Nanlin Sword Sect is near the outskirts of Beijing. Since Wang Yi is out of control, we should naturally replace it with one of our own, so as to completely control the Sword Sect."
Wang Yue said: "But Wang Yi asked the female disciples of the Sword Sect to audition. There are no outstanding female disciples under Zijing, Wenshu and Uncle Lin. How can we ensure that we win the position of sword master?"
Wang Yun took a sip of fragrant tea, put down the tea cup, stood up and walked slowly, stroking his white beard and said: "Hu Ben, have you heard of the story of Princess Jieyou?"
Wang Yue is currently General Huben, and Huben is his general name. After hearing Wang Yun's words, he was surprised and said: "A Han princess who married from a foreign land in the previous dynasty? What does it have to do with the Nanlin Sword Sect?"
Wang Yun laughed and said, "Tiger Ben, please be patient and listen to me."
"Princess Jieyou was born into a royal family, and her grandfather Liu Wu was once the king of Chu who dominated one area. In the spring of the third year of Emperor Jing's reign, Liu Wu raised an army to participate in the "Seven Kingdoms Rebellion" among the kings of the same surname. He was defeated and died, and the family became sinners. From then on, Princess Jieyou and her The family had long suffered from suspicion and rejection, and fell into misery. At that time, the daughter of the guilty minister Liu Jian, the king of Jiangdu, married Wusun Kunmo away from home because of a "marriage". Jieyou was granted the title of princess, and she married Cenzuo, the grandson of Wusun Kunmo, as his right wife and concubine. Her status was lower than that of the Huns princess Zuofu who was also a concubine. Her second marriage was to Weng Guimi, the younger brother of Jun Xumi. The third marriage was Ni Mi, the son of a Hun princess, and they gave birth to a total of six sons and one daughter.
The ancestor of Princess Jieyou is Liu Jiao, the younger brother of the great ancestor. He was named the first king of Chu because of his outstanding achievements in helping his ancestor conquer the world. Liu Jiao was a man of great erudition and talent. He was conscientious in his work and served as an official respectfully for a long time. The people enjoyed prosperity and well-being. After Liu Jiao's death, Liu Jiao's second son Liu Yingke inherited the throne of Chu because the prince Liu Youfei died early. During the period of Empress Lu, Liu Yingke was transferred to Zongzheng and was in charge of the household registration and genealogy of the royal family; during the period of Emperor Wen of Han Dynasty He was renamed King of Yi. King Yi only reigned for four years and had a good reputation and was praised and supported by others. Just because he hoped that his son would succeed and that his descendants could carry forward the foundation of the Han Dynasty, Liu Yingke hired the most famous teachers in the world and recruited many outstanding talents to gather in Pengcheng, the capital of Chu State. A large number of talented people gathered around King Chu.
What is sad is that the life of Liu Yingke, the king of Yi, was too short; the annoying Liu Wu had no respect for his elders, no knowledge, no skills, a promiscuous life, and an arrogant temperament; therefore, he committed adultery and was almost executed by Chao Cuo When he was killed in the capital, Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty felt that the crime was unconvincing, so he issued a vague edict, cutting off the two counties of Donghai and Xiapi under the direct jurisdiction of the King of Chu. Liu Wu was therefore dissatisfied. During the Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms, Liu Wu, together with Liu Yi and others, the youngest son of King Chu Yuan, raised troops to participate in King Wu's rebellion. In the end, they were defeated and had to commit suicide. However, his sins affected the tragic fate of future generations.
In the second year of Yuanshou, heaven sent auspicious omens, which were as shocking as a rock. Good news of the war came from the west of the Yellow River. The Han Dynasty's army achieved a great victory. The Xiongnu Jinren were captured by the Han army and sent to the palace. Civil strife and fratricide broke out in the Xiongnu court. King Hunxie led his subordinates to surrender to the Han Dynasty. The five vassal states of the Han Dynasty that settled the Huns were connected into a smooth road in the Hexi area, which led to Zhang Qian's later construction of the Western Regions, opening up a new world for the alliance between the Han Dynasty and Wusun.
This year, Jieyou was born in a cramped and humble house in the Prince of Chu's Mansion, but when he grew up, he became a beautiful person. In the second year of Taichu, guests from Wusun, the farthest country in the Western Regions, came to Chang'an and wrote to the Han court to ask for King Wusun to marry a Han princess in order to continue the Wusun alliance. He sympathized with the king's grief at losing Princess Xijun, and Emperor Xianwu readily agreed. At Wusun's request, Princess Jieyou was designated to marry. No one can disobey the edict, and Jieyou's family knelt down with tears in their eyes to accept the edict and express gratitude; the talented and beautiful Jieyou was about to go to the Western Regions, and she was not afraid of the heavy responsibility shouldered by her daughter-in-law. This long journey of nine thousand miles is so far away. In the past fifty years, we have experienced countless ups and downs; how many people have sympathy and emotion for the joys and sorrows in it? !
The place where Princess Jieyou was welcomed was in the Turks Grassland, the summer capital of Wusun. The scenery there was very beautiful and charming, but in a barbarian land, it was inevitable that the climate would not suit her. Princess Jieyou was married to Jun Xumi when she first arrived in Wusun. Princess Jieyou, who was the right wife, encountered two big problems. First, she had not been pregnant for many years and was left out. Naturally, the Xiongnu princess was very happy; there were many wars between the Han Dynasty and the Xiongnu. After the defeat, King Wusun's army Xu Mi died of illness again. Princess Jieyou and Princess Xiongnu both remarried to Weng Guimi, known as the Fat King, according to the custom of Wusun Kingdom. Secondly, Princess Jieyou was always in the disadvantageous position of the right wife and was always in a disadvantageous position. Faced with the conflict between the pro-Han faction and the pro-Hun faction, and the dangerous battle for the throne in the palace, Princess Jieyou, who endured humiliation and heavy burdens, was determined and determined to maintain the alliance between the Han Dynasty and Wusun. When he was over seventy years old, he wrote to the emperor stating his pain of homesickness and requesting that his remains be buried in his homeland. Ganlu returned to the Han Dynasty in the third year. The emperor took pity on her situation and personally went out of the city to welcome Princess Jieyou back. Whenever she goes to court, Princess Jieyou is treated with the same etiquette as a royal princess. "
Although Wang Yue listened leisurely and fascinated, he wondered: "What does Princess Jieyou have to do with this matter?"
Wang Yun laughed and said: "Princess Jieyou did not return to the court alone. She brought back her children and followers."
If you want to know what happens next, listen to the explanation next time.
