Chapter 939: The war has subsided, and the island country has stopped

The imperial envoys went to the central capital on behalf of the emperor to pay tribute to Yan Zongwang, and after Wan Yan Zonggan, who stayed in Datong Mansion and did not dare to act rashly, knew about it, he ordered someone to send some of the royal concubines, clan women and children assigned to him to the front line of the imperial army.

These concubines and clan ladies of Huizong and Qinzong were all taken away from Tokyo City, and they were worse than dead in the Jin Kingdom.

Although Li Nan's heart was hard, he couldn't stand this miserable scene, hearing these women tell about the various humiliations he had suffered in the Jin Kingdom, and thinking that there were many equally poor women still suffering in the Jin Kingdom, although this matter was done by Qin Zong, but he still felt like a knife.

After going back, Li Nan pondered for a while, and finally decided to revise the book.

This letter was written by Li Nan to the Jin Emperor Jin Taizong Wan Yan Sheng, in which he promised not to expose the other party's lies, and even ordered the imperial army to cooperate with him to intimidate the Jurchen nobles and tribal leaders in his country, causing tensions, but requiring the Jin State to return all the captive Song women.

At this time, Wanyan Lou Room, Wanyan Chang and Wanyan Zongjun, who were responsible for receiving 500,000 soldiers and horses, had already rushed to Zhongdu, Ulzhou and Datong Mansion.

These three generals of the Jin Taizong family were also well aware of what had happened recently, and when they saw the emperor's letter, they immediately sent someone to send the letter back to Shangjing.

The Jin Kingdom is composed of a number of tribes, among which the Wanyan Department has three branches and twelve tribes, including the Tuoman Division, the Shuhu Division, the Hule Division, the Zhuzhun Division, the Wendihan Division, and the Fusan Division, in addition to the Twelve Divisions of Wugulun, the Ten Divisions of Tudan, and the Seven Divisions of Pucha.

Jin Taizong's lies can be concealed from those ordinary people of the Jin Kingdom, but it cannot be concealed from the tribal leaders and nobles with many people in these tribes, so if Emperor Li Nan is willing to cooperate, then this matter will really be seamless.

A few thousand Han women are not a big deal, Wan Yan Sheng immediately agreed to this, he not only immediately gathered all the Han women in his palace, but also secretly acquired the daughters of the Song royal family and clan who were still alive in the hands of other nobles, and finally secretly transported them to the southern front.

After the secret transaction between the two kings was completed, Li Nan did not break his promise, and the imperial legions stationed on the front line began a grand military exercise, and Wanyan Lou Mur, Wanyan Chang, Wanyan Zongjun and others also tried their best to cooperate, creating a false impression of a fierce battle between the two armies.

In the terrifying wave of foreign enemies, the impact of the deaths of Wanyan Zongwang and Wanyan Zongjie gradually weakened, and Wanyan Zonggan, who lost his military power and was transferred back to Shangjing, was demoted from the minister of state to the powerless minister as he expected.

Jin Taizong's eldest son, Wanyan Zongpan, although he still did not become the heir to the throne, he succeeded Wanyan Zonggan and became the minister of Jin.

At the same time, Wanyan Zonghan and his family also benefited, and they also shared the military power of Wanyan Zongwang and others.

At this time, most of the Jurchen tribal leaders and nobles acquiesced in this change of power, but only one decided to seek justice for the death of Wanyan Zongwang and the others.

This person is the third son of Jin Taizu Wanyan Aguta, Wanyan Zongfu, who was named King Lu.

His two brothers died for no reason, and the military power in his hands was divided up, so Wanyan Zongfu naturally didn't do it, and immediately led the troops and horses of his headquarters to go to Jin Taizong and Wanyan Zonghan and others to ask them clearly.

It turned out that Wanyan Zongfu had done something stupid, because Li Nan received an official statement from the Jin State, saying that when Wanyan Zongfu traveled to Yanzhou, he died violently like his two brothers.

In just a few months, three of the sons who followed Jin Taizu Wanyan Agu to fight together to fight the great country died, this is really easy to fight the country, but it is difficult to defend the country!

There will be no war on the northern front in the short term, and Li Nan has been out for a long time, and he is ready to return to the imperial capital.

Originally, Li Nan was going to return to Hangzhou by boat directly, but he didn't expect that the Fu family sisters around him didn't seem to have enough boats, and they heard Asha say about stationing in the island country and Goryeo, so they became curious.

Li Nan has recently seen a lot of things about the deceit and killing of each other between Jin Guo's uncles, nephews, and brothers, and he also felt depressed, so he simply decided to take them outside to relax.

Now the sea empire near Huaxia does not have any opponents, so there is no need to worry about the enemy, only need to guard against natural disasters, so Asha only sent five warships to escort Li Nan and his party.

The island country is still in the Heian period, and Li Nan, who has not been to the island country in person, has most of his impressions from a few books and manga from later generations, but it is certain that the island country of this era is not an elegant and reserved romance.

On the ship, Li Nan flipped through the various information collected by the Imperial Intelligence Agency about Japan in the Heian period.

First of all, the territory of the island country at this time is very different from that of later generations, simply put, it is a small circle.

Hokkaido Island is still home to the indigenous Ezo people, and the Ou region in the northeastern part of Honshu Island is also self-governing by indigenous people, similar to a colony, but the locals have begun to integrate and assimilate with the islanders.

The island of Ryukyu in the southwest is still an ignorant and uncivilized wilderness, and the southern part of Kyushu Island is also infested with wild people, and it is only nominally included in the territory.

In fact, not to mention the surrounding island countries, even in most places under the rule of the Yamato Imperial Court, they are also vast and sparsely populated, slash-and-burn, and infested with wild beasts, and it is a little difficult to find a slightly decent city, and the living conditions of the island people are estimated to be similar to those of European serfs in the same period.

The key is that the civilization of the island country was born too late, and it should have begun to appear in the second century AD. The prototype of the current Yamato Imperial Court was not formed until the 6th century, and the Heian period began in the 9th century.

Fortunately, the people of the island country have a good neighbor, that is, the Central Plains Celestial Empire in the west.

Since the Han and Tang dynasties, the island people began to vigorously import the Central Plains culture, and it can be said that the island people have entered the feudal society by leaps and bounds from the primitive tribes of slash-and-burn cultivation and blood drinking, all because they are good at learning.

Even if you go to the island country in later generations, you can see the shadow of China from all aspects, although there are many people in the island country who refute it, but this is an indisputable fact.

According to intelligence, although the island country has not yet been truly unified, the nobles and ministers of the ruling class have begun to decay and enjoy themselves.

The emperor who was not a few days in advance, as well as those imperial relatives and magnates, said that the regent of the island country, Sekihaku, and the minister of Taisei Fujiwara, who had signed the "Guicheng Treaty" with Li Nan, were among the representatives.

The nobles of these island countries did not want to expand their territory, enrich the country and strengthen the army, and agreed to the whole island, but began to express their affection for the landscape, burn incense and worship the Buddha, recite poetry, study calligraphy, and cultivate sentiment.

Moreover, the ministers and nobles of the island country also have an inexplicable idea, that is, except for Kyoto City, they all think that it is a "ghost land" that will be contaminated with bad luck, not to mention development and construction, even letting them go out is like exile.

The most interesting thing about the island nation is the diet, the aristocracy was all vegetarian, and there was a period when they could not even eat seafood and fish, and this period lasted for decades.

The lack of a vegan diet of fish inevitably led to a serious shortage of vitamins, fats, and proteins, so the ministers and nobles of the Heian period, regardless of gender, were generally malnourished and sick.

According to statistics, Japanese aristocrats in the Heian period were short-lived, and the average male minister lived to be about thirty-two years old. As for aristocratic women who live in the curtain all year round, the average life expectancy is only twenty-seven years.

In contrast, the lower classes of the island nation and the samurai had better food conditions, so their average age could reach seventy years old.
