Wanyan Mingyue said: "It's still that question, who are you?" Who are you? ”

Lin Jue said: "My name is Lin Jue, we are people in the Luoyan Army of Luoyan County, Great Zhou, not people from the imperial court." ”

Wanyan Mingyue's eyes widened in surprise, and she glared at Lin Jue and said, "Are you ...... Lin Jue? That's it...... Great Wednesday Envoy Lin Jue? Lin Jue, who rebelled out of the capital and raised the flag in Luoyan Valley? ”

Lin Jue frowned and said, "Girl, it's that Lin Jue down there, but our Luoyan Army is not raising the flag to rebel." The Luoyan Army is the soldiers and horses under the command of Guo Kun, the king of Bianliang of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the regular soldiers and horses established in order to eradicate the traitors of the Great Zhou Dynasty and crusade against the usurper traitors are by no means to rebel. ”

Wanyan Mingyue turned a deaf ear, lowered her head and muttered for a long time: "You wrote the words of "When Will Mingyue Exist"? ”

Lin Jue was speechless, this is talking about serious things, how did he get to that word. Could it be that his words have already spread to the Jurchen tribes in the wilderness? That's outrageous, isn't it?

"I wrote it. How did the girl know that? Lin Jue said.

Wanyan Mingyue pursed her lips and smiled: "I wasn't interested in these at all, but this word is related to my name, someone asked me to read it, and I read it." It's really well written. ”

Lin Jue smiled dumbly, it turned out that because this poem was written about the moon, and Wanyan Mingyue's name was the moon, so she just read this poem.

"You are very famous in your Great Zhou, and many people know about you. But I didn't expect to meet you here today, it's really ...... Is...... Some...... It's a bit of a coincidence. Wanyan Mingyue said with a smile.

Lin Jue didn't want to talk too much about this matter, so he said, "Now it's my turn to ask the girl." The girl's surname is Wanyan, and she is also known as the princess, so she must have a relationship with Wanyan Aguda. ”

Wanyan Mingyue nodded and said, "Wanyan Aguda is my elder brother, and I am his sibling sister." ”

Lin Jue nodded and said: "I see, I see, that's right, such a confidential matter, naturally needs the most trusted person to negotiate." ”

Wanyan Mingyue said: "Yes, I was sent by my brother to negotiate the alliance with the officials of the Great Zhou here and deal with the Liao State together. You heard it anyway, and I don't want to hide it. ”

Lin Jue nodded and muttered, "Yes, isn't the best place to meet with the Jurchen Alliance on the sea?" It is possible to avoid crossing the territory of the Liao. This is to make a maritime alliance. ”

Wanyan Mingyue frowned and said, "Funiu Mountain is very far away from here, how can you appear on this island?" ”

Lin Jue thought for a while and said, "There are things I need on this island, things to strengthen my Falling Wild Goose Army, and we are here to find these things." It's a pity we didn't find it. I was going to leave, but I unexpectedly ran into a meeting between you and the officials of Da Zhou, and I eavesdropped on a few words out of curiosity, but I didn't expect such a situation to happen. ”

Wanyan Mingyue nodded and said, "But now that you know about this matter, what do you want?" ”

Lin Jue said in a deep voice: "I haven't thought about it yet, but you don't have to worry that we will leak this news." In fact, no one will believe that the Great Zhou will make an alliance with you Jurchens, and the Liao people will not believe it. Even if someone sent the news to the Liao people, the Liao people would think it was just a divisive plan, because Yelu Zongyuan urgently needed reinforcements from the Great Zhou at the moment, and he would not believe it. ”

Wanyan Mingyue said coldly: "What if he believes it? In any case, even if my Jurchen clan did not join forces with the Great Zhou, they would still attack its Shangjing. I just don't want to mess up what my brother explained, in fact, even if you leak the secret, there is nothing to lose to my Jurchen, we don't care. ”

Lin Jue said with a smile: "Miss Wanyan is a heroine among women, and she is extremely courageous. How can you Jurchens have such a great hatred with the Liao? The Liao people are not bad to you Jurchens, I seem to have heard that Yelu Zongyuan also made your brother a festival envoy and gave you a very high courtesy. ”

Wanyan Mingyue's willow eyebrows were raised, and she said in a deep voice: "Phew! The Liao people have been bullying my Jurchens for many years, and you actually said that it was good to us. We Jurchens live at the foot of Changbai Mountain, have no quarrel with the world, and survive with great difficulty. The Liao people have included us in their territory, but they have oppressed our Jurchens inhumanly everywhere, treating us Jurchens as animals, exploiting us, and slaughtering us, and we have long had enough of them. After Yelu Zongyuan became the emperor, he intensified and oppressed him even more, is it tolerable or unbearable? If it weren't for your ignorance, I would have slain you. ”

Lin Jue didn't expect that one sentence would cause such a big reaction, and hurriedly said: "Don't be annoyed, Miss Wanyan, I don't know what's going on." I thought that you Jurchens were tribes belonging to the Liao State and were the people of the Liao State. The Liao court will not be mean to you. If I misunderstand, please forgive me. ”

Wanyan Mingyue said coldly: "They don't treat us Jurchens as human beings at all, my Jurchen tribe must hand over a large amount of property every year, ginseng, mink, famous horses, Beizhu, Junying, beeswax gems, and my Jurchen tribe's unique printed and dyed linen cloth, etc. After handing over these, the corrupt officials and corrupt officials of the Liao State also went to our Jurchen field to buy our goods at a low price and exploit our people. They also shamelessly call this kind of behavior 'beating the Jurchen', which is really unbearable. That's not all, every time I encounter a foreign war, my Jurchen men are recruited the most. There are less than 500,000 people in my Jurchen clan, but there are no less than 60,000 adult men who fight for the imperial court, which is almost half of the adult men of our clan. Among the more than 30 tribes of my Jurchens, there are countless men in the army who have died, leaving orphans and widows to live a difficult life. If it weren't for the long-term help and relief of our Jurchen clan, I am afraid that this would be more ruined and dead. ”

Lin Jue smacked his lips and said in surprise: "It turns out that they are so harsh to you, no wonder you want to rebel." ”

Wanyan Mingyue said in a deep voice: "My brother didn't want to turn his face with them, but they went too far. They enveloped my brother with the position of envoy of the festival, hoping to use the sword in my brother's hand to enslave the people who drove us. Of course my brother refused. They supported the patriarch of the Blackstone tribe, Allydan, against my brother, intending to make all the tribes betray my brother. After the matter was exposed, Alaudan fled to Shangjing, and my brother sent people to ask for someone from the Liao court, but instead of giving it, they also said that my brother's was not, and that my brother had ambitions or something. My brother gathered the tribe for advice, and everyone had had enough, so they rebelled. You say, if it were you, would you not do it? ”

Lin Jue nodded lightly, the Liao people are like this to the Jurchens, which will naturally cause a backlash. The Jurchens are already fierce and strong, how can they tolerate such a thing happening for a long time. If the oppression is too much and arouses public resentment, the result can only be rebellion.

"If you say so, it's not the Liao people." Lin Juedao.

"Finally, you said something fair." Wan Yan Mingyue said softly.

Lin Jue pondered for a moment and said, "Then you are going to join forces with the Great Zhou to destroy Liao, right?" I guess your brother must have been very happy when the envoy of the Great Zhou arrived at your Jurchen tribe. I'm afraid this is exactly what he wants. With the strength of your Jurchen clan, I'm afraid you won't be able to destroy the Liao Kingdom. ”

Wanyan Mingyue craned her neck and said, "Although it can't now, what about ten years?" What about twenty years? can still destroy the Liao State. Your alliance with Da Zhou and us is nothing more than speeding up this process. We are not uncommon, it was your Great Zhou Emperor who took the initiative to ask for it. He is nothing more than angry with Liao, and he wants to carve up the land of Liaoguo with us, and he may not have any good intentions. Do you want to say that your Great Zhou court is allied with us for the sake of my Jurchen clan? We have never had any contact with your Great Zhou, so how can you do this for us. ”

Lin Jue had to admit that Yan Mingyue still had some knowledge, or rather, the upper echelons of the entire Jurchen tribe actually saw the matter of the alliance with the Great Zhou very clearly. The cooperation between the two sides is just a cooperation in terms of interests. Everything else is.

"Wanyan girl, you have to admit it, what if I help the Liao people in Da Zhou? Aren't you bad? You can't say that with the strength of your Jurchen clan, you can resist the encirclement and suppression of the elite armies of our Great Zhou and Liao States. Lin Jue deliberately said such a thing, and tried Yan Mingyue's reaction.

Wanyan Mingyue sneered and said, "Then you guys will try." My Jurchen people have survived for many years between the white mountains and black waters, and it is almost difficult for outsiders to survive there, but our Jurchen people have not only survived, but also flourished, and this is the ability of our Jurchen people. Since we have been able to exist for 100 years and are still alive today, there is a reason. It is not something that others say will be extinguished. Although you people of the Great Zhou Dynasty claim to be superior and boast of being extremely powerful, we are not afraid of you. My Jurchen people rely on fearless bravery, loyalty to the tribe, and do not hesitate to defend the tribe with their lives. Do you have any of these? You Da Zhou people have the most eyes, but you are also very cowardly. has been oppressed by the Liao people for so many years, if you go to help the Liao people again, it will be the most ridiculous group of people in the world. If this is the case, there is no reason for you to be immortal. The Liao people are asking you for help now, but they will bite you when they turn their heads, and when the Liao people destroy your Great Zhou, you are afraid that it will be too late to regret it. ”

When Lin Jue heard this, he appreciated it in his heart. A woman of the Jurchen tribe has a better view and insight into the problem than many people.

"Wanyan girl, you said that the Liao State has a covetous heart for my Great Zhou, then let me ask you, don't you Jurchen people have a covetous heart for my Great Zhou? How can you guarantee that after the destruction of the Liao State, you Jurchens will not use troops against my Great Zhou? Lin Jue asked in a deep voice.

Wanyan Mingyue said: "Absolutely not, we Jurchen people have always cherished friends. Although the alliance between Da Zhou and us is for its own benefit, allies are friends. As long as Da Zhou will live in harmony with us in the future, we will never use troops against you Da Zhou. I can guarantee that. ”

Lin Jue sighed and said in his heart: This woman is still young in the end, if she is lying, it is fine, if this is what she really thinks, then she is obviously too naïve.

"The girl may think so, but how can you be sure that your brother thinks so? People change. Maybe that's what you're thinking at the moment, because you're still very weak. When the country is strong one day, it may not be like this. Lin Jue stirred up the fire and said softly.

"No, I promise we won't." Wanyan Mingyue shook her head and said resolutely.

Lin Jue was silent, and the cave was silent, only the sound of crackling flames burning. Both of them looked down at the fire, thoughtful.
