On the second year of the Great Song Jingkang, this New Year is extremely bleak for the people of Kaifeng, with no surplus food at home, no surplus funds, and the separation of wives and daughters, which is unspeakably miserable. The government in the city plundered the people's wealth and collected women for the gold people outside the city, and the people raised a righteous army, which was suppressed by the government, and the anger and sorrow of the people reached a critical extreme.

In a White Lotus Sect mansion in the north of the city, Zhu Tong and other eight leaders were all in it. Sitting in the hall, Zhu Tong read Sanniang's handwritten handwriting, and silently circulated the letter to the generals. After Lei Heng and Yang Lin read the letter, they stood up together and said in a lost voice: "The people in the city are already in such a situation, and the lord still wants us to hold back?" ”

Zhu Tong and Mu Hong glanced at each other, and the two heroes knew Sanniang's decision, and said slowly: "There is still one last step left, I have to endure it later." Wang Ying licked her lips and said angrily: "Those dog officers and soldiers are even more ruthless than when we were strongmen, and they have robbed the huge Kaifeng City several times, and the woman is too, and those who have a little appearance will be arrested and sent to Jinying, this court is really rotten to the bones." ”

Zhu Tong said in a deep voice: "You will also say that it is the imperial court, and ordinary people only say that there are traitorous ministers in the court, but they don't know that the chaos in the world is actually caused by Zhao Song without a way, and this Zhao Song should not sit on the throne anymore." Wang Ying bowed his head and said: "Also, the people are used to it, and they don't dare to offend the emperor, they only dare to scold the government and officials, but they don't dare to scold the emperor, and they also say that the emperor is deceived by traitors." ”

Mu Hong said: "Exactly, at this time, the lord wants us to spread the news in the city, so that the people can see the true face of the Zhao and Song royal families, and let the people lose confidence in the Zhao and Song royal families. ”

Yan Qing said: "These days, I have made up a lot of small songs, all of which say that Zhao Song has no way, and the destiny is no longer there, and I can teach everyone to sing it." Zhu Tong and Mu Hong both praised loudly, and at that moment all the leaders discussed, and each led the White Lotus Sect to protect the various strongholds of the White Lotus Sect, and at the same time gathered the sect members, sang small songs, and posted notices to expose the true face of the Zhao and Song royal families.

The official government in the city plundered the people, and the White Lotus Sect members had already hidden their money, food, and family members in the tunnels they had dug to hide. Often overnight, all kinds of shameless things that denounced the Zhao and Song royal families, harmed the people, flattered and sued for peace, went out of the city to surrender to negotiate peace, and promised the unreasonable conditions of the Jin people were exposed. When the Kaifeng government saw it, they were all shocked and frightened, and hurriedly sent people to find out, but it was cleared during the day, and many posters appeared again the next day.

Three days later, many small songs were sung in the streets and alleys of the city, all saying that Zhao and Song had no way and destiny was not blessed. After listening to these songs, the members of the White Lotus Sect in the forbidden army also began to spread the word, saying that Guo Jing's method of borrowing troops failed that day, and the problem was that Qinzong was on the dragon beard, and Qinzong was not the emperor who belonged to the mandate of heaven, and his practice was ineffective. These gossip spread with noses and eyes, and many forbidden soldiers said that they saw and heard with their own eyes and ears at the head of the city that day, that Guo Xianren used the dragon whisker to cast spells, but the dragon whiskers were not spiritual, Guo Xianren once shouted loudly: "It turns out that Zhao Song is not the mandate of heaven today, and my spell is not effective." "It's only because of this that Guo Jing was incognito and fled.

This rumor is not believed by the people, after Guo Jing failed to borrow troops that day, he did fly into the fog and escaped, if this person is a liar, but why did he work with other spells? Therefore, many people gradually believed, the problem was in the dragon's beard, and Qinzong and Zhao Song were no longer destined for heaven.

There was even a small song sung, and Qinzong talked about the flattery and harmony in the Jinying song, and promised the Jin people to loot the people's fat and ointment, and to kidnap the people and women to provide the gold people with sexual pleasures. At this time, many people were illiterate, and when these songs were sung, even those who could not read could understand them, so that they could spread them more widely.

The Kaifeng government learned that the folk sang these songs and rumors, and under the anger, they wantonly searched for the people who sang them, and for a time the prisons of the Kaifeng Mansion and the three divisions of the yamen were full of people, but they could not stop these songs and rumors from spreading among the people. Gradually, the people's hatred for the government, traitorous ministers, and corrupt officials gradually shifted to the Zhao and Song royal families.

Qin Zong also heard these news in the palace, but he didn't have time to pay attention to it, just because his energy was now all focused on the gold, silver, and women needed by the golden people. Under the urging of the Jin people, the gold and jewelry of the palace clan, the royal family, and the concubines were all scavenged, and finally even the ritual vessels for worshiping the heavens, the Dharma of the Son of Heaven, various books and classics, Dacheng musical instruments, and even the costumes and props used in a hundred operas were all scavenged out and transported outside the city to fill the gold and silver for the Jin people.

Finally barely scraped together enough money and food for the bounty people, Zongwang agreed to open a peace negotiation, and Qinzong sent ministers out of the city to negotiate peace with the Jinren, but Zongwang still refused to allow it, forcing Qinzong to come to Jinying in person to discuss. Qinzong had no choice but to come to Jinying again.

This trip Jin people still didn't give Qinzong a good face, and generally locked up Qinzong in a small black house for two days, and after Qinzong mourned many times, Shangzong Wangfang saw Qinzong on the third day. When Qinzong took Li Ruoshui and other accompanying ministers to Zongwang, Zongwang did not say a word, but only ordered the scribe to step forward and put the peace terms that the Jin people had already drawn up in front of Qinzong. Qin Zong couldn't help but tremble when he saw the terms of the peace agreement, but looking at the attitude of the Jin people, this was not negotiable at all.

Seeing that Qinzong was still hesitating, Zong Wangyin said predictively: "Emperor of the Song Kingdom, if you still want to be your emperor and want to go back to Kaifeng, sign this peace agreement quickly." Qin Zong had no backbone, and wanted to agree on the spot. After Li Ruoshui and others read this peace agreement, they were also helpless, there were clauses asking for gold, silver, money and grain, and now that Kaifeng City has been looted, where can they go to make money? After repeated discussions, Zong Wang generously agreed that he could use utensils and women to charge gold and silver money, and even negotiated a price list of how much a woman was worth.

So the monarchs and ministers of the Song dynasty signed this peace agreement in humiliation, and according to this peace agreement, the two sides agreed as follows: Jin Guozhun exempted Daozong (Song Huizong) from going north, and took the crown prince King Kang, the prime minister and other six people as hostages, and should pay tribute to the Song court utensils; It is allowed to exempt the land south of the Yellow River and Bianjing, with two emperors (princesses), four Zongji and clan concubines, 2,500 palace maids, 1,500 female musicians, 3,000 people with various crafts, and 5 million horses of silver and silk per year. Originally, there was one prince and one prime minister, and the blood of the vassals outside the river were sent at full speed, and they were returned after delivery; It was originally planned that 1 million ingots of gold and 5 million ingots of silver should be delivered within 10 days. The additional conditions are: "If the number is not enough, the emperor and the princess will receive 1,000 gold ingots, Zongji will receive 500 gold ingots, the clan concubine will receive 200 gold ingots, the clan woman will receive 500 silver ingots, the clan woman will receive 200 silver ingots, and the noble relatives will have 100 silver ingots, and the marshal's choice will be at your disposal."

Kaifeng City had no gold and silver silk silks at all, so Zhao Song opened the most absurd and shameless scene in the history of the Han Dynasty, they used their women and daughters to fill the gold and silver and give them to the gold people.

From the 28th day of the first month, the Great Song Dynasty began to fulfill the above agreement, according to the requirements of the Jin people to send women to the Jin military camp, the first to send Cai Jing, Tong Guan, Wang Huang family courtesans 24 each, of which Fujin Emperor Ji (princess) as Cai Jing's female dependents are also sent to the prince Wanyan Zongwang Dazhai. After Emperor Fujin saw that he couldn't leave, he "trembled and had no color", and he couldn't order the slave Li to get Emperor Fujin drunk and take the opportunity to carry out **. Emperor Fujin was the first princess of the Song Dynasty to be ravaged by the Jin army commander in "The Difficulty of Jingkang", but she was not the last.

Although the officials of Kaifeng Prefecture scraped the ground, they could not meet the demands of the Jin people. In order to survive, Song Huizong and Song Qinzong began to shamelessly use women to pay off debts. In addition to escorting all the women of the court and the clan to the Jinying according to the jade, the officials of Kaifeng Prefecture also searched for the women of the people in the capital and even the palace maids who had already married. These forcibly arrested women "were all unkempt, did not eat, and were sick, and coveted to be spared", and in order to invite merit, Yin Xu Bingzhe of Kaifeng Prefecture actually "bought his own hairpin shirts, crown inserts, and fresh clothes", and sent more than 5,000 women from the upper concubines, lower concubines, and lower households out of the capital in full costume and handed over to the Jin Army. The Jin army, which regarded itself as the victor, "selected 3,000 virgins from the more than 5,000 women selected and sent to the city", and of course, the 2,000 women who were eliminated should have been taken away due to physical weakness and other reasons after being ruined by the Jin soldiers.

However, Qinzong has been detained in Jinying, according to Zongwang's words, he is worried that Zhao Song will miss the appointment again, so he let Qinzong stay in Jinying, when to gather the gold and silver and pay tribute, and when to let Qinzong go back.

Song Qinzong, who was in captivity, lived like a year, and his feelings of homesickness were overflowing. Song Dynasty officials repeatedly begged the Jin people to release Song Qinzong, but the Jin people ignored them. On February 5 of the second year of Jingkang, Song Qinzong had to accept the invitation of the Jin people to watch the ball game with a smile. After the game, Song Qinzong begged Jin Shuai to let him go back, but was reprimanded by Zong Han, and Song Qinzong was too frightened to mention the matter again.

Zhao Song is busy scourging the people of Kaifeng here, what is Sanniang doing there? Sanniang naturally did not stand still, Lu Junyi's soldiers and horses marched on the south bank of the Yellow River, millions of fleeing people along the way mourned on both sides of the Yellow River, and there were many golden soldiers in Hebei, and millions of people fled south. And Sanniang led 30,000 troops and horses to camp in Dongdu, rescue the surrounding people, resist the Jin people and prevent them from going east, so they were deadlocked, waiting for the Jin people to make a move to the Zhao Song clan.

As for the misery of the people in Kaifeng, Sanniang did not intend not to save it, compared with millions of people on both sides of the Yellow River, there are millions of soldiers and civilians in Kaifeng, where there are more people who need to be saved, Sanniang is still knowledgeable. Besides, it still costs to bury Zhao Song completely, Sanniang just wants the people of the world to completely see the corruption and incompetence of Zhao Song with the tragic situation of the people of Kaifeng, so that Zhao Song completely loses the hearts of the people in the world. Seeing that the time was ripe, Sanniang sent a letter urging Guo Yaoshi to make a statement, and asked the Jin people to attack the Zhao Song clan.
